Q: Unbound copy service for Android Ok, so I'm working on an Android program that will list the things you copied in history. I used to have an activity do this, but I want it to work even when the activity is not running in the background, so I'm working on a service to get the data that the user copies, and call an activity method for it to be processed and listed in the app. Here is my service:
public class Operation extends Service {
private static int NOTIFY_ID = 1;
ClipData.Item item;
String newText;
ClipboardManager clipboard;
Context context = this;
ArrayList<String> operationVals = new ArrayList<String>();

@Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent arg0) {
    return null;
}

@Override
public void onCreate() {

    NotificationCompat.Builder tasker =
            new NotificationCompat.Builder(this)
                    .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.appicon)
                    .setContentTitle("Copy Data Recorder")
                    .setOngoing(true)
                    .setContentText("Recording copied data");

    Intent copyAction = new Intent(this, MainActivity.class);
    PendingIntent pendAction = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, copyAction, 0);

    tasker.setContentIntent(pendAction);

    NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
    notificationManager.notify(NOTIFY_ID, tasker.build());

}

@Override
public void onStart(Intent intent, int startId) {}

@Override
public void onDestroy() {}

@Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId){

    clipboard = (ClipboardManager)
            getSystemService(Context.CLIPBOARD_SERVICE);

     clipboard.addPrimaryClipChangedListener(new OnPrimaryClipChangedListener() {

        public void onPrimaryClipChanged() {

            ClipData clip = clipboard.getPrimaryClip();

            try {

                item = clip.getItemAt(0);

            } catch (Exception e) {

            }

            newText = item.coerceToText(context).toString();
            operationVals.add(newText);

            try {

                MainActivity messager = new MainActivity();

                messager.doIt(operationVals);

            } catch (Exception e) {

                System.out.println("Exception Error: " + e);
            }

        }

    });

    return START_STICKY;
}

}
Basically, every time, it's getting what is copied, adding it to a String array list "operationVals", and calling the method doIt() of the main activity. doIt() loops through the array, checks to see which copied data is new, and adds it to a array list of EditText objects named "ets" which are displayed when the app activity is opened. Here it is:
public void doIt(ArrayList values) {
    for (String element : values) {

        if (ets.size() != 0) {

            for (int i = 0; i < ets.size(); i++) {

                String element2 = ets.get(i).getText().toString();

                if (element2.equals(element)) {

                    values.remove(i);

                }
            }
        }

    }

    if (values.size() != 0) {

        for (String newText : values) {

            /* If the size is zero and we currently have no items, this one should
               be immediately added.*/

            if (ets.size() == 0) {

                ets.add(new EditText(context)); //Adds EditText field
                ets.get(ets.size() - 1).setText(newText); //Sets newText string in EditText that was created
                linearlayout.addView(ets.get(ets.size() - 1)); //Adds element to view
                contentSpace.add(ets.get(ets.size() - 1).getText().toString());

            } else if (ets.size() != 0) {

                oldText = ets.get(ets.size() - 1).getText().toString();

                // Checks that new copied data is different from previous data and does not contain only spaces
                if (!newText.equals(oldText) && newText.trim().length() > 0 && oldText.trim().length() > 0) {

                    ets.add(new EditText(context)); //Adds EditText field
                    ets.get(ets.size() - 1).setText(newText); //Sets newText string in EditText that was created
                    linearlayout.addView(ets.get(ets.size() - 1)); //Adds element to view
                    contentSpace.add(ets.get(ets.size() - 1).getText().toString());

                } else if (oldText.trim().length() == 0) {

                    for (int i = 0; i < ets.size(); i++) {

                        if (ets.get(i).getText().toString().equals(oldText)) {

                            oldText = oldText.trim();
                            ets.get(ets.size() - 1).setText(newText);

                        }
                    }
                } else {

                }

            }

        }

    }

}

However, I test it out, and things seem to be going just fine until doIt() is called by my service and the program starts working on checking ets and adding the elements to it, and I get a NullPointerException. It seems that ets has been properly declared and initialized and my activity has obviously been created (the service is started in onStart() of the main activity). I would appreciate if anyone can please help me out with this to solve the problem. Thanks.

A: Multiple problems in your code:

*

*you can not instantiate an Activity like this: MainActivity messager = new MainActivity();
activities can be started (or activated) only by using Intents (Intent.startActivity family of methods).

*You should either use a BroadcastReceiver or a Messenger to handle the communication between the Service and the Activity.

*consider scenarios like when you send data to the activity but the activity is in background and in a stopped state (Activity.onPause and Activity.onStop will be called when an Activity is in background). In this case you can call Intent.startActivity again but with the flag FLAG_ACTIVITY_REORDER_TO_FRONT set, this will cause the activity to be brought in the foreground (will not recreate a new instance of the activity if one already exists)

*consider moving the logic that you have set up in Service.onStartCommand to Service.onCreate, as Service.onStartCommand will be called each time you call Context.startService method and each time will override the previous settings.

Karin Keays is curator of the art of Australian music great, the late Jim Keays. Together, Karin and Jim were partners in life and in business for over 25 years. As co-owner and administrator of Masters Apprentices Pty. Ltd., Karin acquired an in-depth knowledge of all aspects of the Australian music industry. Throughout their years together, Karin was also co-curator of Jim's extensive music and memorabilia collection. As Jim's soul mate, it was Karin who encouraged Jim to pick up his long-neglected brushes and rediscover his love of watercolour painting after they married. Relishing the joy of his return to one of his earliest mediums of artistic expression, Jim was prolific and he created over 150 watercolour paintings and drawings, which he bequeathed to Karin before his passing in 2014. In 2016, Karin laid the groundwork, preparing and carefully choosing Jim's art pieces in what was to be the first-ever gallery exhibition entitled 'The Secret Life of a Rock Legend'. This was successfully showcased at Hawthorn Studio and Gallery. Since Jim's passing, Karin has resumed her career in Business and Logistics. As a talented writer, Karin has once again returned to her passion and love of words. She is a published author and travel writer. Karin lives in Melbourne with their two daughters.
Jim Keays rose to fame as singer-songwriter of rock band Masters Apprentices from 1965 to 1972 with many Top 20 hits in their career. Keays, as a member of Masters Apprentices, was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame in 1998. Jim embarked on a solo career in 1972, quickly establishing himself with the release of his first album, 'The Boy from the Stars'. Jim's solo career continued with several album releases, including the milestone 'Pressure Makes Diamonds' and a re-release of 'The Boy from the Stars' on CD. His book biography entitled 'His Masters Voice' was released in 1999 and, with Jim's quick wit and flair for words, was a fascinating and entertaining story and bestseller. From 2000, Jim performed in Cotton Keays & Morris alongside Darryl Cotton and Russell Morris. This trio of rock legends played to sell-out crowds for twelve years until the sad loss of Darryl Cotton to cancer in 2012. Jim had himself been diagnosed with incurable cancer five years earlier, recording two final solo albums before his passing in 2014. A true artist in every sense, Jim loved to paint in watercolours. He quietly enjoyed developing his painting style throughout the years from 1989, leaving Karin Keays with a brilliant and beautiful body of work. A selection of Jim's paintings was exhibited at Hawthorn Studio & Gallery in 2016, titled 'The Secret Life of a Rock Legend'.


I am 57 years old and have had type 2 diabetes for three years. Previous medications were metformin, Precose, Actos and Lantus. Four months ago the daily 45 mg of Actos was discontinued since the doctor thought it was affecting my liver. The 10 units of Lantus at bedtime was increased gradually to 32 units to replace the Actos. The first month I did okay, but now it seems not to be working. Every week, my blood glucose levels are increasing so that, this week, they are 150 mg/dl [8.3 mmol/L] to 200 mg/dl [11.1 mmol/L] every day. My morning readings are high, which has always been a problem for me. I haven't changed my eating, exercising, or lifestyle but have also gained 5 pounds! I am not happy with that since I still have 40 pounds more to lose. I am very upset over all this since I was doing so well previously. What is going on?
Current, I take 1000 mg metformin twice daily, 25 mg Precose at meals, 35 Units Lantus at bedtime, 160 mg Diovan once daily, and 20 mg Lipitor once daily. When I see my blood sugars go high, I exercise to try to get them lower but they go higher instead! I take extra Precose, which helps sometimes, but, at others, it doesn't. Is it possible I need to go to a regular insulin now? Or, should I just keep increasing the Lantus more? I have a 1500 calorie meal plan allowing 196 grams of carbohydrates a day, which I do not eat since my blood sugar goes too high and I gain weight on it. I try to stay around 1000 to 1200 calories and find I can only "handle" about 15 to 20 grams of carbohydrates per meal to keep my A1c around 7. However, my A1c has gone up to 7.8. What should I do?
At my last visit, the doctor said to exercise more (I walk 30 to 60 minutes a day), stay on my meal plan, increase the Lantus from 32 to 35 units and try to eat and take my medications at the same time every day. I admit my schedule and meals are very erratic due to work and life schedules. I work a midnight shift, so, should I take Lantus in the morning, which is my bedtime? Can you offer any suggestions as to what is going on and what would help?
Your questions are common ones and have been experienced by others. In some way, that may help. For instance, type 2 diabetes does have a plot line of sorts. Initially, you can respond to one agent well. Later, you have to receive two agents to get the same affect. Later, another may have to be added. This is the progression of the disease, rather than the absolute failure of your interventions, your doctors' interventions, or the medications. Also, you should know that any intervention that improves blood sugar control can cause you to gain weight. It may be that your ability to exercise and cut calories are surpassed by the progression of the diabetes. It may be time for you to use insulin with meals, in addition to the Lantus as your basal insulin. Lantus has been given both in the a.m. or the p.m. It probably does not matter much which time of day you take it. It is also known that when you exercise, there is a burst of production of hormones that antagonize insulin's effects. If you are adequately insulinized, make your own insulin or receiving enough exogenous insulin, you will have a fall in blood sugars after the exercise. However, if not, the sugar begins to rise. It might be time to discuss the use of insulin at meals, in addition to the Lantus, more seriously. Over 50% of patients with type 2 diabetes end up taking insulin over time. You want what works best for your blood sugar control.

contact-me is one of the routes in app module.

1. If 'app-contact-form' is an Angular component, then verify that it is part of this module.

    Error occurs in the template of component ContactMeComponent.
** Angular Live Development Server is listening on localhost:4200, open your browser on http://localhost:4200/ **
What else is needed or what am i doing wrong?

A: Remove ContactFormComponent from both declarations and exports in contact-me.module.ts
That's all.
Explanation:
You are using app-contact-form which is inside contact-form.module.ts. So you have to export it from there in order to use it in another module.
and then, import ContactFormModule wherever you need ContactFormComponent. Here in your case import in contact-me.module.ts

A: Try and make sure the component which you are adding in html template, should be added to app.module.ts. This can directly added or in your case can be added in shared module which is then added in app.module.ts

A: I have found the missing part, i needed to import ContactMeComponent in imports of app.module.ts.

Cardiac arrest during sex four times more likely to kill
Some might argue that there are worse ways to go.
But those who suffer cardiac arrest while having sex are four times more likely to die than other victims, according to researchers.
They found that only 12 per cent of men whose heart suddenly stopped during intercourse survived – far fewer than the 50 per cent survival rate of those who suffered a cardiac arrest while playing sport, walking or gardening.
Scientists believe one reason is that women whose partners collapse are too embarrassed to call for help. The shock might also stop them trying to resuscitate their partner.
But those who suffer cardiac arrest while having sex are four times more likely to die than other victims, according to researchers
Study leader Dr Ardalan Sharifzadehgan, of the Paris Sudden Death Expertise Centre, said: 'There's social embarrassment. They are shocked, they don't know how to react.
'The husband is naked, they are naked, maybe they're afraid to call the neighbours. There's big, big embarrassment. But the take-home message is – you have to rescue your husband.'
Dr Sharifzadehgan, who presented his findings at the European Society of Cardiology conference in Barcelona, assessed records on 3,028 people who had suffered a cardiac arrest and were still alive when they were admitted to hospital.
Of these, 246 had been doing physical activity when their heart stopped, of whom 17 – all men with an average age of 53 – had been having sex.
Cardiac arrest occurs when the heart suddenly stops pumping blood around the body – if it is not kept going with resuscitation or restarted with a defibrillator, patients can die within minutes.
Even those who receive rapid resuscitation remain at risk if they do not receive specialist treatment in hospital.
Scientists believe one reason is that women whose partners collapse are too embarrassed to call for help
Cardiac arrest is far more dangerous than a heart attack, which occurs when there is an arterial blockage to the heart.
Dr Sharifzadehgan found that fewer than half of the men who had been having sex were given CPR, compared with 80 per cent of the other victims.
He said: 'There was less intervention. Women did not give CPR to their partners. This is the big problem here.'
He added: 'The advice is to never delay calling for help and giving CPR, even in an embarrassing situation. The first thing to do is to call for help in the building or from neighbours, then give CPR.'
Dr Sharifzadehgan said people should not be put off sex, stressing it is good for health. However, he added CPR education is vital.
Professor Jeremy Pearson, of the British Heart Foundation, agreed, saying: 'Don't stop sex but realise there may be a risk if you have a heart condition.
'Call 999 – don't delay helping your partner. We want everybody to do CPR, in whatever position they find themselves.'
The British Heart Foundation says those who have had a heart attack or heart surgery can usually resume sexual activity as soon as they are feeling well enough, normally within four to six weeks.
But it advises that it may be wise to ask the other partner to take a more active role.

Just an update: of course this project is still ongoing.
Our skilled scripter (Jstylezzz) however is really busy with his internship at the moment, but once he finishes he'll have a lot of time to bring the gamemode up to speed.
Pretty funny, I just went to re-install sa-mp for nostalgia reasons and logged on here and what do I see, keen as!
Just got an update from Jstylezzz that his intership ends July 6th, so in the days/weeks after the server will undergo a LOT of updates.
After further evaluation we decided to not release a half-assed script on 8/8/2018, but will release a proper version by the end of August.
What a time to be alive! Count me in.
6 months later, is there any update Mave?
Sadly Jstylezzz has been really busy irl, mostly work stuff. I still have faith in this project though. Even finished an new map in December.
Let me start off by apologizing for the massive delay in delivering what was designed to be ready for last August. I don't want to justify the delay or anything, just putting my situation out here.
At the time I jumped on board, I had just started my internship at a gamedev studio. During weekdays nearly all of my time goes into work and driving from/to the office.
Somewhere in April I had some personal tough times (you know, relationship issues ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ) and adding that to my already stressful daily life, didn't allow me for any energy afterwards to work much.
Last week a family member of mine was hospitalized and I wanted to be there for support, so I abandoned my internship for a week and stayed there.
I know this all doesn't fix the massive delay, just wanted to let you guys know that it's not just me slacking off or not caring about the project. Quite the opposite actually, I can't wait to play online with everyone! SA-MP has been the place for a lot of my good memories back in 2010, so it's an honor to be on board here.
Now, long story short, I'm on my way to finish the internship. I'll be done in a few weeks, after which I'll have more time to work on the TMS SA-MP server. I'll be giving the project priority over my own projects.
Again, my sincere apologies. I'll be doing my best to get something cool done as fast (but still as stable) as I can.
I just wanted to give a small update: @Jstylezzz is currently putting the finishing touches on the server foundation.
As soon as that is ready, the new, mostly blank server will be online again (password protected of course).
From that moment things will start to go fast and we should have all maps and basic features up within a reasonable amount of time.
The base we're laying now is very important. It'll allow us to have a very fluent development & testing workflow from the moment that this system is in place.
You can never be too safe. Tonight I've decided that the TMS SA-MP server will run on a completely different VPS than the forums. This way they will never be able to interfere with each-other and shouldn't ever be offline at the same time.
Thanks for the security advice @Donald and I'm sure @Panki will approve.
BTW: @Jstylezzz is 99% done with the deployment system. If all goes well the server should be completely set up tomorrow and the "real" development could start.
Been mapping like crazy the past few days, some fun things in the pipeline!

Inside an Endangered Property: Providence's Beresford-Nicholson Estate
This historic mansion on Blackstone Boulevard, on a rare three-acre parcel, made the Providence Preservation Society's annual list of endangered properties.
Photos via Residential Properties.
Three acres of prime real estate on Blackstone Boulevard, the swankiest artery on the East Side of Providence: What would you do with such grandeur? Take a twilight stroll among the heritage trees before retiring to your wood-paneled library for a few fingers of scotch? Or would you dice the land into ten pieces and turn a hefty profit?
On Friday, the Providence Preservation Society released its list of 2019's Most Endangered Properties, and the Beresford-Nicholson Estate at 228 Blackstone Boulevard is one of them. The PPS's twenty-five-year tradition aims to stir up interest in significant structures threatened by neglect or demolition. Sometimes, the attention works; once-endangered properties including the Bomes Theatre and the Wedding Cake House have been saved.
Salvation might not be in the cards for the Beresford-Nicholson estate, however. The property is under contract with the Bilotti Group, whose re-subdivision plan — leveling the triple lot and dividing into ten single-family properties — was approved by the City Plan Commission earlier this month despite outcry from neighbors and city residents. According to a press release from the Providence Preservation Society, "Many neighbors have come out to voice opposition to the demolition of the buildings and concern over re-subdivision as drawn, loss of historic trees, traffic implications, curb cuts, and penetration of the historic wall. PPS continues to monitor the situation."
It's a given: We all want to save old houses (like this one or this one or this tragic one, also a PPS 2019 endangered property). But the Beresford-Nicholson estate isn't protected by historical regulations. And I have to admit: It is a bit of an anomaly on the East Side, where property lines are tight and price tags are very, very large. It's no wonder the Bilotti Group swooped in.
Only two families owned the property over its 110-year history, according to the PPS press release. The main manor, an Elizabethan beauty built for William Beresford, was designed by Clarke, Howe and Homer and completed in 1909. Ten years later, the property was sold to Paul Nicholson, who enlarged the main house and added several ancillary buildings; the estate has remained in the Nicholson family for the last century. Additions include a playhouse, cow barn, garden shed, caretaker's cottage and greenhouse. But the most charming feature of the property is the cottage-style chauffeur's quarters, an ivy-covered structure that's built into a stone and stucco wall on Slater Avenue. (Knocking down the chauffeur's quarters is a little like bulldozing the cottage of the Seven Dwarfs. Just saying.)
Here's a peek inside the estate, which was listed by Residential Properties for $4.95 million and is pending sale:
288 Blackstone Boulevard, Providence, is pending sale. The house has eight beds and five-and-a-half baths over 7,618 square feet, and sits on a 2.97-acre parcel. (Photos via Residential Properties)

Left half-wing for MC-21 prototype delivered to final assembly
Posted on March 5th, 2016 by Russian Aviation Insider in Aerospace, Russia, Trending
Photo by Irkut Corporation
The left-side half-wing for the first prototype of Russian new-generation narrow-body aircraft, the MC-21, has been delivered to the assembly line in Irkutsk, where it will be attached to the fuselage, the aircraft's producer Irkut announced yesterday. The composite wing was produced by the Ulyanovsk-based company AeroComposite.
Work is currently underway to attach the right half-wing, which was delivered in January, to the aircraft. At the same time, aircraft systems are being installed on the prototype, the spokesperson for Irkut commented.
AeroComposite is currently assembling a composite wing box, which will undergo fatigue and static testing at Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute (TsAGI). It is also producing wings for another MC-21 prototype that will be used for static tests.
The 160-211 seat version of the narrow-body aircraft, the MC-21-300, is expected to make its first flight before the end of the year. Its certification is slated for 2017 or 2018. A shortened modification, MC-21-200, is also being developed. It will seat 130-176 passengers.

The Bears have a lot going for them. They've won four straight games and nine of their last 10. Their offense seems to have found its identity with a more-controlled Mitch Trubisky. But their stingy defense is the reason the Eagles will leave Soldier Field de-feathered. Season: 10-6.
The Bears beat the Vikings last week when they didn't have to. Now they need to beat Philly or this 12-4 season's a dud. They're healthy, they're happy, they're home. They'd better be hungry. Season: 11-5.
This year's Eagles are different than the team that won the Super Bowl last year. The Bears' defense should be able overcome the magic of Nick Foles. If Trubisky gets time, he should have another efficient day, too. Overall, the Bears are the better team. Season: 10-6.
The Bears haven't lost a game in which Trubisky and outside linebacker Khalil Mack were fully healthy since Week 1. That streak continues for one more week, with the Bears defense smothering the Eagles in the second half. Season: 11-5.
The defending Super Bowl champion Eagles are coming in on a roll. But the Bears have the best defense in the playoffs and are playing at home. They've risen to the challenge throughout the second half, and seem to be picking up steam. Season: 11-5.

Lawsuit Blames Faulty ET-Plus Guardrail for Man's Death
January 16, 2017 — The family of a young man who died in a car accident after hitting the end of a guardrail has filed a lawsuit against Trinity Industries.
The lawsuit (PDF) was filed on November 29, 2016 in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of Illinois (Peoria Division) — Case No. 16-cv-1464.
Trinity is a Dallas-based company that makes the ET-Plus, a guardrail end-terminal that is marketed as a "safety feature." It is designed to absorb the impact of an oncoming car and push the end of the guardrail through a U-shaped chute, diverting it away from the car.
The young man, 21 year-old Omar Artis, was driving two of his relatives home just hours after attending his sister's funeral.
For unknown reasons — his family thinks he may have fallen asleep — Artis swerved his 2004 Hyundai Tiburon off the road and into the end of an ET-Plus Guardrail located near Peoria, Illinois.
The guardrail "penetrated the vehicle through the center grill" and into the passenger compartment. Omar suffered major injuries and died in the hospital the same day. His two passengers had only minor injuries.
Lawyers accuse Trinity of selling a defective end-terminal that causes the guardrail to jam up, break, and impale oncoming cars like a spear. More than two-dozen guardrail injury lawsuits have been filed on behalf of people who were injured or died in gruesome car accidents.
In 2012, a whistle-blower lawsuit accused Trinity of reducing the height and width of the U-shaped chute on the ET-Plus to save money on materials. The changes were made around 2005, and Trinity did not tell the U.S. government or conduct crash tests required by law.
It makes sense that reducing the size of a U-shaped chute would make the guardrail more likely to jam up. However, the ET-Plus "passed" all eight crash tests in 2015, although one car was badly damaged when the guardrail apparently jammed, buckled, and formed a sharp elbow.
Four out of eight ET-Plus guardrails that were tested had an "exit gap" of 1.25-inches — 25% wider than most guardrails suspected of malfunctioning. Vehicles in the crash tests were also driven squarely into the ET-Plus, rather than at a slight angle, as would be expected in most accidents.
The results of those tests were questioned by the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) and the Justice Department investigated criminal corruption between Trinity and the Federal Highway Administration. The tests were conducted by a former business partner of Trinity at a research facility in San Antonio, Texas.
In 2014, an independent study by The Safety Institute found that car accidents involving the ET-Plus were 3-times more likely to result in death compared to the original ET-2000 Guardrail.

Today is EFF day at Marc Maron's WTF podcast. Maron is releasing an interview with me, in my official capacity as Mark Cuban Chair to Eliminate Stupid Patents. WTF is also donating $5,000 to EFF and will match up to $5,000 in donations through June. Donate to the campaign here!
Since launching the WTF podcast from his garage in September 2009, Maron has interviewed guests ranging from Carrot Top to President Obama. In January 2013, a patent troll called Personal Audio threatened Maron and other podcasters. Wielding a vague patent on "disseminating media content," Personal Audio claimed to have invented podcasting. With support of the public, EFF challenged Personal Audio's patent at the Patent Office. We won that challenge and are now defending our victory on appeal.
WTF is still produced from Maron's Los Angeles backyard (or as he calls it, the Cat Ranch) and I was thrilled to be invited over. I updated Maron on the latest news regarding our challenge to Personal Audio's podcasting patent and about about the ongoing fight for legislative patent reform. We also talked about some of our other patent cases, like our recent victory against a patent owner who claimed to own the idea of having a 'vote for the best' competition on the Internet. Turning to other topics, we chatted about the FBI's battle with Apple regarding iPhone security and the importance of defending security against ill-considered proposals like the Burr-Feinstein anti-encryption bill.
We're thrilled to have Marc Maron's support. (Marc has been a long-time supporter of EFF, laying down the guitar solo on Yacht's EFF fundraising track Party at the NSA.) Help us continue our fight against patent trolls and donate today!

Home Latest News I'm Confident Of Being Fit For The World Cup: Aaron Finch
I'm Confident Of Being Fit For The World Cup: Aaron Finch
Prashanth Esampally
Image Source: Twitter.com
Australian finest cricketers Steve Smith and Aaron Finch compete with time to become ready for the global event with the T20 World Cup 2021 which is only a few months to begin. For recent years, the 2 batsmen have been pillars of the Aussie unit and their absence may significantly decrease the prospects of Australia raising the ultimate championship. However, Smith and Finch both are on their way back to full health in anticipation of the important event. Here is Aaron Finch About T20 World Cup 2021 Participation.
Aaron Finch About T20 World Cup 2021 Participation
Smith's elbow ailment resurfaced earlier this year and worsened during the now-cancelled Indian Premier League (IPL). He was forced to withdraw from Australia's West Indies and Bangladesh visits as a result.
Smith stated earlier this month that the impending Ashes series will take priority over the T20 World Cup. The right-handed hitter, on the other hand, has made a quick recovery and is already hitting in the enclosures.
I know that Smith is building up his batting time over the last couple of weeks: Finch
Smith is expected to be back for the IPL's visit to the UAE the following month. Finch, Australia's limited-overs captain, suffered a knee injury in last month's T20I series with West Indies. His involvement in the world competition, like Smith's, is clouded. The experienced opener, on the other hand, is sure of making the World Cup.
"I'm confident of that (being fit for the World Cup). I think that will help me. The surgery went as well as it could have and I'm walking around with no pain, which is the most important thing at this stage," said Finch.
Finch is even hopeful that Smith will be ready for the major competitions in the UAE and Oman. "It seems to be going really well. I know that he's been building up his batting time over the last couple of weeks – I know that would have been difficult to have a time limit on his net times," the 34-year-old asserted.
Furthermore, Australia has been struggling in T20Is recently. They lost two consecutive series to the West Indies and Bangladesh. As a result, it will be exciting to watch if they can recover in the worldwide event.

Arsenal Ladies defender sets her sights on winning first trophy
Ben Kosky
Published: 12:00 PM October 16, 2015

Defender Jemma Rose is aiming to top off a successful debut season at Arsenal by winning the first silverware of her career.
Rose, who joined the Gunners from Bristol Academy last year, has been an ever-present in the club's Women's Super League campaign, forging a solid partnership at the back alongside Casey Stoney.
And the 23-year-old now has an opportunity to pick up her first winners' medal next month after helping Arsenal to reach their fifth consecutive Continental Cup final.
The Gunners will face Notts County at Rotherham's New York Stadium on November 1 after overcoming Birmingham City 3-1 in Sunday's semi-final tie at Meadow Park, Borehamwood.
"Historically, Arsenal are probably the most successful team in women's football," said Rose. "They've won so many league trophies, cups and even the Champions League.
"But I've never won a trophy, so this game will be massive for me and I definitely want to win it. Winning my first ever cup would mean a lot to me and to my family as well, so I'm looking forward to it.
"I think we showed our character [against Birmingham]. It was a really physical game and we matched that physicality and came away with the win.
"It's a really good feeling to go through. We've had a few injuries during the season – players like Vicky Losada and Jordan Nobbs were both out for some time, then Leah Williamson and now Emma Mitchell.
"But I think we're finding our form now and we want to take that form into the final and win the trophy."
Sunday's result represented a third successive victory in all competitions for Pedro Martinez Losa's side – and it looked as if they would record the same number of clean sheets as well.
Goals from Marta Corredera, Dani Carter and Alex Scott gave Arsenal a 3-0 lead, but the Blues pulled one back with a stunning drive into the top corner from Kirsty Linnett.
Nevertheless, Rose is pleased by the Gunners' growing defensive solidity in recent weeks and credits her team-mates, particularly Stoney, for their progress in that department.
"I've played with Kirsty in the England Under-23s for a long time and I've seen her score a lot of goals like that, especially against good teams like the USA and Germany," admitted Rose.
"So I knew she was capable of scoring a great goal and there wasn't a lot we could do to stop that. But overall we've been conceding fewer goals in both the league and cup and I feel we're getting more solid at the back.
"I've played alongside Casey all season and I'm definitely learning a lot off her. She's got so many caps for England and she's played in the top leagues, with so many experienced players.
"I think we complement each other's style – Casey's more technical with the ball and we work well together. It's quite similar with Alex Scott – Alex likes to get forward and I like to defend.
"It took me a while to get used to the Arsenal style. At Bristol there were a few more long balls, here we like to get the ball down and play and I think that suits my game now."
The central defender, who has won England caps at Under-17, Under-19 and Under-23 levels, is yet to gain full international recognition despite being named in Mark Sampson's senior squad.
But Rose is hopeful of making the breakthrough in the near future if she continues to impress for Arsenal, adding: "Pedro's improved me as a player and in terms of mentality as well.
"I think Pedro knew when he signed me that I was a hard worker and, if I showed my talent on the pitch and in training, then ultimately I'd play.
"Being at Arsenal has certainly improved me as a player, game by game, and I know Mark [Sampson] tends to pick players in form.
"My dream has always been to play for England and I'm going to do everything I can to be in that squad. I've got to keep working hard, concentrate on Arsenal and hopefully that comes along with it."

I write this on a rare evening off. I'm currently wading my way through a 63-hour week. It's a pretty useful distraction though, I have to say, as I certainly need my time filling these days. I've got myself into a bit of a routine (well obviously – my life is one big routine, broken down into sub-routines), which includes a midday fashion fix. I mean, got to start planning for when I'm rich, right? [The image that caught my eye today is below. I don't know who she is but she's reppin' that jumper and can I be her?] Meanwhile, I have also been known to treat myself to a diet coke, a coffee, five minutes on the balcony looking across the rest of the city, or a quick walk around the next-door art gallery. My headphones are a permanent fixture. Not sure what I'd do without those.
Pokey, lad. There are no words for how much I love/how many times I have watched this. Obviously I went to see them when they were in Manchester a few months ago. [According to the photo evidence it was actually in March – sorry, but where does the time go.] And they're playing Liverpool in October. Obviously I'm going again. Guess who my favourite is. There's a clue in the photos. His face!
….the question of nostalgia, and whether I suffer from it. I certainly don't get soggy at the memory of some childhood knick-knack; nor do I want to deceive myself sentimentally about something that wasn't even true at the time – love of the old school, and so on. But if nostalgia means the powerful recollection of strong emotions – and a regret that such feelings are no longer present in our lives – then I plead guilty. I'm nostalgic for my early time with Margeret, for Susie's birth and first years, for that road trip with Annie. And if we're talking about strong feelings that will never come again, I suppose it's possible to be nostalgic about remembered pain as well as remembered pleasure. And that opens up the field, doesn't it?
don't say you ain't been told, when this river rolls over you.
when you've got the fear.

Q: How to solve this layout design-error due to conflicting css? The design of the page should look like this:
http://www.ski.kommune.no/Skoler/Finstad/
Another css-file is loaded in this page, bringing some unwanted attribute of the css-tags, which makes the design undesirable, e.g. the text in the blue field is moved.
    http://www.ski.kommune.no/Skoler/Finstad/Praktisk-informasjon/Test-av-bildegalleri/
Which css-tags are creating the design problem in the above example? I looked with Firebug, but I couldn't find.
What is the best way to restore the design?

A: The problem comes from 5th item in your main horizontal menu.
The list item there has a class="calendar".
according to browser developer tools that class is:
.skole .calendar, .skole .news-list {
overflow: hidden;
margin-bottom: 20px;
}

the problem there is margin bottom.
  to solve the problem:
the best way is to separate the 2 classes and remove the margin-bottom from the calendar class.
a word of advice:
try learn how to use different browsers developer tools.
in my view the bests are chrome and firebug.
have fun!

Spangenhelm è il vocabolo di lingua tedesca indicante l'elmo in uso alle forze armate europee nella Tarda Antichità e nell'Alto Medioevo. Arma bianca difensiva di origini orientali, sviluppata presso gli Sciti o i Sarmati, venne veicolata nelle contrade occidentali del continente eurasiatico dalla popolazione nomade degli Unni nel V secolo. Restò in uso più o meno sino all'Anno Mille.

In araldica, il vocabolo "Spangenhelm" viene utilizzato per indicare l'elmo di tipo Kolbenturnierhelm in uso durante la giostra di tipo Kolbenturnier del Rinascimento.

Storia
Il momento esatto di creazione dello Spangenhelm è ad oggi ancora dibattuto.

Stando ai rilievi raffiguranti i cavalieri catafratti roxolani sulla Colonna traianea, l'archetipo di questo elmo ogivale, con nasale e guanciali, meno ingombrante dell'Elmo gallo-romano allora in uso alla fanteria pesante romana, doveva essere già stato sviluppato e diffuso dalle popolazioni nomadi della steppa eurasiatica (fond. Sciti e Sarmati) già nel II secolo. Veicolato dagli scorridori e dai mercenari provenienti dalla steppa, lo Spangenhelm si diffuse non solo tra le truppe di cavalleria dell'Impero romano stanziate nelle provincie più orientali (III secolo) ma anche tra i cavalieri persiani: Parti prima e Sasanidi poi.

Tramite i romano-bizantini ed i parto-sasanidi, lo Spangenhelm si diffuse poi tra le popolazioni germaniche continentali in occidente e tra le popolazioni mongoloidi più limitrofe agli Urali (Unni, Turchi Oghuz, Peceneghi, ecc.) ad oriente. Entro il V secolo, la quasi totalità degli elmi in uso in Europa erano del tipo Spangenhelm.

I più importanti ritrovamenti sono avvenuti in Egitto a Der el Medineh e in Alsazia a Baldenheim.

Costruzione
Lo Spangenhelm era composto da più segmenti metallici saldati con dei rivetti. La calotta era composta da quattro o sei spicchi saldati da una striscia metallica che ne percorre tutta la circonferenza nella parte inferiore; tra uno spicchio e l'altro erano presenti delle bande metalliche che confluivano sulla cima del coppo.

Rispetto all'archetipo, le principali varianti dello Spangenhelm sono due:
Spangenhelm-Der el Medineh, con calotta allungata, paranaso, paragnatidi e paranuca, saldati alla calotta tramite delle cerniere;
Spangenhelm-Baldenheim, con coppo più basso, paragnatidi più strette, privo di paranaso.

Researchers Identify New Brain Marker for Alzheimer's Disease
Researchers have discovered a new marker that may help identify those at maximum risk for cognitive decline and the development of Alzheimer's disease.
Duke University Medical Center researchers used functional magnetic resonance imaging, also known as fMRI, on people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), to track regions of the brain that become active or inactive when participating in tasks that involve memory.
People with MCI are at increased risk for developing Alzheimer's disease in the future and approximately 30-50 percent of MCI subjects will develop Alzheimer's if followed over a three- to five-year period.
"A single baseline fMRI measure of deactivation could help predict which individuals will convert to Alzheimer's over the next several years," said the study's lead author, Jeffrey R. Petrella, M.D.
"On the other hand, the fMRI scans of MCI subjects who did not convert looked more like those of healthy normal people, and could therefore be reassuring," said Dr. Petrella, who is director of the Alzheimer's Imaging Research Laboratory and associate professor of radiology at Duke.
According to him, the findings focus on an area of the brain known as the posteromedial cortex, which has recently been implicated in personal memory.
"Our theory is that the posteromedial cortex may be our brain's 'cruise control' that normally deactivates when we are trying to remember things, so resources can be sent to other areas of the brain that encode memories. However, in people with mild cognitive impairment or Alzheimer's disease, the deactivation does not happen and the posteromedial cortex remains active," he said.
In this study, researchers conducted fMRI scans on 75 people, including 34 with mild cognitive impairment, 13 with Alzheimer's disease and 28 with normal cognition. Study participants completed standard neuropsychological testing and were monitored with fMRI while performing a memory task matching names and faces. Patients were then followed for three and a half years to determine how their cognition changed over time.
The researchers found that approximately a third of the MCI subjects converted to Alzheimer's in three and half years after their initial scans. The conversion to Alzheimer's was determined by study doctors using routine clinical and memory tests. fMRI level of deactivation was found to significantly predict which MCI subjects converted to Alzheimer's.
Study authors said that while other works have focused on the brain's ability to turn on certain regions, their research determined that losing the ability to turn off a region of the brain might be a more sensitive marker of future cognitive decline.
"The Holy Grail in this field is to predict with 100 percent accuracy whether a 50-year old who forgets names will get dementia or not. We are not there yet but are inching closer and closer everyday. The combination of genetic, biochemical and imaging biomarkers will soon become the gold standard," said study co-author P. Murali Doraiswamy, M.D.
The findings are published in PLoS ONE.

WVV Wiesbaden Holding GmbH launched an invited competition on conversion and redevelopment of the listed Walhalla theatre at the centre of Wiesbaden to develop a new usage concept for the Wiesbaden city museum.
The Walhalla theatre was built in 1897 on the site of the Marschall'scher Hof to make cultural offerings (music, dance, language, variety and later also film) accessible to a wide audience.
Beside the theatre and associated ancillary rooms, the Walhalla building complex also housed a restaurant, later residences and a cinema, and a nightclub in the basement. A number of alterations were made to cater to these establishments' respective needs.

Q: Rotate imageView as per touch I am rotating imageView which is minuit hand of a clock,  with
-(void)touchesMoved:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
  {
    UITouch *touch = [touches anyObject];
    if ([touch view] == _imgViewMinuit)
    {
        NSLog(@"Touched");
        _imgMinuitHand.transform = CGAffineTransformRotate(_imgMinuitHand.transform,DEGREES_RADIANS(6));
     }
 }

Now i want to rotate it as per my finger, clockwise/anticlockwise, with speed of my touch.
How I can achieve this ?

A: check this code
-(void)touchesMoved:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
{
    UITouch *touch=[[event allTouches]anyObject];

    [self transformSpinnerwithTouches:touch];
}

-(void)transformSpinnerwithTouches:(UITouch *)touchLocation
{
    CGPoint touchLocationpoint = [touchLocation locationInView:self.view];
    CGPoint PrevioustouchLocationpoint = [touchLocation previousLocationInView:self.view];
    //origin is the respective piont from that i gonna measure the angle of the current position with respective to previous position ....
    CGPoint origin;
    origin.x = arrow.center.x;
    origin.y = arrow.center.y;
    CGPoint previousDifference = [self vectorFromPoint:origin toPoint:PrevioustouchLocationpoint];
    CGAffineTransform newTransform = CGAffineTransformScale(arrow.transform, 1, 1);
    CGFloat previousRotation = atan2(previousDifference.y, previousDifference.x);
    CGPoint currentDifference = [self vectorFromPoint:origin toPoint:touchLocationpoint];
    CGFloat currentRotation = atan2(currentDifference.y, currentDifference.x);
    CGFloat newAngle = currentRotation- previousRotation;
    temp1 = temp1 + newAngle;
    //NSLog(@"temp1 is %f",temp1);
    //NSLog(@"Angle:%F\n",(temp1*180)/M_PI);
    newTransform = CGAffineTransformRotate(newTransform, newAngle);
    [self animateView:arrow toPosition:newTransform];
}
-(void)animateView:(UIView *)theView toPosition:(CGAffineTransform) newTransform
{
arrow.transform = newTransform;
}

-(CGPoint)vectorFromPoint:(CGPoint)firstPoint toPoint:(CGPoint)secondPoint
{
    CGFloat x = secondPoint.x - firstPoint.x;
    CGFloat y = secondPoint.y - firstPoint.y;
    CGPoint result = CGPointMake(x, y);
    //NSLog(@"%f %f",x,y);

May 26, 2015 ~ Sara W.
I hope you all had a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend. Ours was certainly a beautiful one! It started off rainy, but quickly turned to blue skies and sunshine. It was a lovely weekend to be outdoors. And that's what I want to share today for First You Must Begin's Second Anniversary Giveaway: the outdoors. Particularly, an 11×14 matte print of a picture that my brother, _stevenwilson, captured off the Southern California Coast. This one is called "Blue Barrel," and it's one of my favorites!
You may recall, that I did a post about _stevenwilson and his amazing ocean photography for a First Friday Find earlier this month. His work is so breathtaking, that I thought it would be the perfect thing to give away for my Second Anniversary of First You Must Begin. Especially since my brother's artwork is a perfect example about beginning something new. Two years ago, when I started this blog, my brother wasn't even posting pictures of ocean photography. Now, due to his desire to embark into the world of ocean photography despite his lack of knowledge, he has grown and developed in the field. He took his love for the ocean and found a way to share it in such a beautiful way. I admire the hard work and dedication that he has put into improving upon his talent. He makes it look easy.
Each of us can begin something new. We can find something within ourselves that we want to improve, we can dedicate ourselves to a new passion, we can work to face our fears, we can strive to live healthier, or we can simply get up and try a little harder than the day before. But, first we must begin. So, here's a Second Anniversary Giveaway to celebrate all the beginnings in our lives and all the beginnings that continue to blossom into something magnificent.

# Reader-writer locks

DistributedLock's implementations of [reader-writer locks](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Readers%E2%80%93writer_lock) are similar to the framework's non-distributed [ReaderWriterLockSlim](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.threading.readerwriterlockslim(v=vs.110).aspx) class.

## Basics

A reader-writer lock allows for *EITHER multiple readers OR one writer* to hold the lock at any given time. This is useful for protecting resources that are normally safe for concurrent access but need to sometimes be locked, such as when changes are being made. For example, a distributed reader-writer lock could be used to provide thread-safety in a distributed cache:

```C#
class DistributedCache
{
    // uses the SQLServer implementation, but others are available as well
    private readonly SqlDistributedReaderWriterLock _cacheLock =
        new SqlDistributedReaderWriterLock("DistributedCache", connectionString);

    /// <summary>
    /// If key is present in the cache, returns the associated value. If key is not present, generates a new
    /// value with the provided valueFactory, stores that value in the cache, and returns the generated value.
    /// </summary>
    public async Task<object> GetOrCreateAsync(string key, Func<string, object> valueFactory)
    {
        // first, take the read lock to avoid blocking the cache in the case of a cache hit
        await using (await this._cacheLock.AcquireReadLockAsync())
        {
            var cached = await this.GetValueOrDefaultNoLockAsync(key);
            if (cached != null) { return cached; } // cache hit
        }

        // seems like we'll need to write to the cache; take the write lock
        await using (await this._cacheLock.AcquireWriteLockAsync())
        {
            // double-check: the value might have been written by another process
            // while we were waiting to get the write lock
            var cached = await this.GetValueOrDefaultNoLockAsync(key);
            if (cached != null) { return cached; } // cache hit

            var generated = valueFactory(key);
            await this.SetValueAsync(key, generated);
            return generated;
        }
    }

    private async Task<object?> GetValueOrDefaultNoLockAsync(string key) { /* reads from underlying storage */ }

    private async Task SetValueAsync(string key, object value) { /* writes to underlying storage */ }
}
```

This approach is more efficient than simply wrapping the entire operation in a regular distributed lock because cache hits don't block each other.

Writers are given precedence over readers so that a stream of overlapping readers cannot lock out a queued writer forever.

## Upgradeable reader-writer locks

Some reader-writer lock implementations further support acquiring an *upgradeable read* lock. When acquired, this lock blocks other writers and upgradeable readers but does not block other readers. Furthermore, an upgradeable read lock can be upgraded to a write lock without having to be released first (with a regular read lock, you must release it before acquiring a write lock.

It may seem tempting to use an upgradeable read lock instead of both a read lock and a write lock in the cache scenario describe above, but the [problem with this](https://ayende.com/blog/4349/using-readerwriterlockslims-enterupgradeablereadlock) is that it would only allow one caller inside GetOrCreate at any giving time.

In some cases, though, it is useful to be able to block writers for a time without blocking readers. Consider the following example of a checkout system where we want to protect modification of the shopping cart data model with a lock:

```C#
class ShoppingCartService
{
    public ShoppingCartDetails GetDetails(Guid cartId)
    {
        using (this.GetCartLock(cartId).AcquireReadLock())
        {
            // read from cart data model
        }
    }

    public void Checkout(Guid cartId)
    {
        using var handle = this.GetCartLock(cartId).AcquireUpgradeableReadLock();

        // This makes some API calls to other systems and can be slow. We want an upgradeable
        // read lock because we don't want to call Submit() multiple times for the same cart, but we
        // don't need to block readers of the cart data model because we're not editing it
        var submissionInfo = SubmitOrder(cartId);

        // now it's time to edit the cart data model, so upgrade to a write lock
        handle.UpgradeToWriteLock();

        // write to cart data model
    }

    private SqlDistributedReaderWriterLock GetCartLock(Guid cartId) =>
        new SqlDistributedReaderWriterLock("Cart_" + cartId, connectionString);
}
```

What Happened to the Sliced Tomatoes at Sharples?
Some Sharples-goers may have noticed a reduction in fresh produce at Sharples. At the sandwich bar, the sliced tomatoes have disappeared and been replaced with pickled peppers or onions. Tomatoes were also missing from Patty-Grilla Bar and Burger Bar and fewer fresh vegetables appear to be available at the salad bar.
According to the Director of Dining Services, Linda McDougall, "This is something that happens most every year and is weather related." This year however, the erratic weather has been particularly harsh for the produce industry, driving up costs across numerous items. McDougall says a case of tomatoes would usually cost $20, but are currently going for $50–more than double the normal price. The rising cost of produce appears to be the primary reason for its rationing. Eventually, as the weather improves and prices go down, the produce will return.


Despite the rumors and reports that were bandied about that Cooke and Shero were not seeing eye to eye, Pens Universe has learned this morning that LW Matt Cooke has verbally agreed to a three year extension with the Pittsburgh Penguins. The full terms of the deal have not been released but it is believed to be just under $2MM per year. Interestingly enough that's almost exactly what I assumed should happen.
[UPDATED] Terms have been released. The Cooke deal is worth $1.8MM a season for 3 yrs with a NTC (no trade clause).


Whether you'd like to admit it or not, you probably have an average IQ. Luckily, there's a lot you can do to increase your intelligence.
"The fact is, intelligence can be increased—and quite dramatically," writes behavior-analytic psychologist Bryan Roche of the National University of Ireland in Psychology Today. "Those who claim that IQ is fixed for life are in fact referring to our IQ test scores, which are relatively stable—not to our intelligence levels, which are constantly increasing."
Anyone has the potential for genius or, at the very least, greatness. The key is to let go of the myth that giftedness is innate.David Shenk, author of The Genius in All of Us, says it's virtually impossible to determine any individual's true intellectual limitations at any age; anyone has the potential for genius or, at the very least, greatness. The key is to let go of the myth that giftedness is innate.
"A belief in inborn gifts and limits is much gentler on the psyche: The reason you aren't a great opera singer is because you can't be one. That's simply the way you were wired. Thinking of talent as innate makes our world more manageable, more comfortable. It relieves a person of the burden of expectation," he writes in his book.
If you want to be smarter than the average American, it's not only possible; it's within reach. Intelligence is the ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills, and includes the ability to reason, solve problems, remember information, and be creative. Increasing your intelligence—even taking yours to genius status—takes a willingness to do the work.
"Open your mind and listen to arguments that make no sense to you—and try to find some sense in them," writes Roche.
Uncommon achievement takes a source of motivation, says Shenk. "You have to want it, want it so bad you will never give up, so bad that you are ready to sacrifice time, money, sleep, friendships, even your reputation," he writes in The Genius in All of Us.
"Increased cardiovascular fitness was associated with better cognitive scores," writes lead researcher Maria Aberg in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. "In contrast, muscular strength was only weakly associated with intelligence."
Participants in a five-day study were led through guided meditation for 20 minutes a day, focusing on breathing, posture, and mental imagery. Researchers found the practice improved the efficiency of their brain's white matter, significantly improving attention and fluid intelligence.

Heel spurs can be incredibly painful and sometimes may make you unable to participate in physical activities. To get medical care for your heel spurs, contact one of our podiatrists from Norfolk Foot & Ankle Group. Our doctor will do everything possible to treat your condition.
If you have any questions feel free to contact one of our offices located in Virginia Beach and Norfolk, Virginia. We offer the latest in diagnostic and treatment technology to meet your needs.
According to a survey, "20 percent of adults in the United States experience cracked skin on their feet." Cracked heels are the result of an insufficient amount of moisture on the feet. In severe cases, cracks can eventually become sore and start to bleed. There are many reasons why a person's feet may begin to dry out. Although more obvious causes for dry skin are cold weather or dehydration, many may not know that taking hot baths and hot showers can cause your skin to dry out. If your cracked heels are caused by an underlying medical condition, it is important that you do not treat them on your own. You may need the help of a podiatrist to treat your dry skin, regardless of your medical history. He or she will be able to recommend the best treatment option for you based on your consultation.
Cracked heels are unsightly and can cause further damage to your shoes and feet. If you have any concerns, contact one of our podiatrists from Norfolk Foot & Ankle Group. Our doctor can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.
Studies have shown that cracked heels are a common ailment for men and women of all ages. This problem may cause simple activities like walking to become difficult. If you are experiencing problems related to cracked heels, it is important that you seek treatment right away before your condition potentially progresses into eczema, or other types of inflammation. There are many different reasons why you may have cracked feet. Some common causes include obesity, aging, psoriasis, pregnancy, fungal infections, and vitamin deficiency. While these are not the only causes for cracked heels, these are some of the most common reasons why people develop them. Treatment for cracked heels typically begins with a good moisturizer. You can either opt for medicated solutions, or you can try to treat your cracked heels at home. Common household items that are used to treat dry feet are olive oil, coconut oil, and rice flour.
If the skin on your feet starts to crack, you may want to see a podiatrist to find treatment. If you have any concerns, contact one of our podiatrists from Norfolk Foot & Ankle Group. Our doctor can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.
If you find that your child complains of pain in the heel area of the foot, you may want to see if a plantar wart is present. A wart that develops and grows on the heel of the foot is referred to as a plantar wart. Despite the fact that it is known to be a harmless skin growth, it may generate severe pain and discomfort while walking. While many types of warts are visible on other parts of the body, a plantar wart grows inward as a result of the pressure the heel endures while walking, and may be difficult to notice. It is generally contagious, and may easily spread to other parts of the body. It's suggested that your child refrains from sharing towels in addition to wearing protective shoes in public pools and shower areas. If your child develops a fever or if you notice liquid that drains from the wart, it's advised to consult with a podiatrist as quickly as possible to learn about correct treatment options.
Plantar warts can be very uncomfortable. If you need your feet checked, contact one of our podiatrists from Norfolk Foot & Ankle Group. Our doctor will assist you with all of your foot and ankle needs.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact one of our offices located in Virginia Beach and Norfolk, Virginia. We offer the newest diagnostic and treatment technologies for all your foot and ankle needs.

I soon realized that riding a desk was not my calling and returned to school for a certification to teach secondary social studies and business courses in Texas. We soon moved to Olney, Texas where we both taught in the Olney ISD system. I coached and taught for 6 years and Robin taught for the three years and 'retired' after the birth of our first son Camden Ryan in 1997. Jared Reese was born in 1999 and Easton Roberts was born in 2001 in Olney as well. Not long after Easton was born, we moved to Sweetwater, Texas where I continued to coach and teach and Robin began homeschooling the boys. In January of 2004, Payton Ripken joined the family and became the fourth son at 'Testosterhome Ranch.' We lived in Sweetwater for 3 years and then moved to Waco where I began teaching for the Texas Youth Commission (teen prison system) and Robin continued to teach at home and we welcomed our fifth son, Marek Robinson in November of 2005. Robin and I had both been actively involved and dedicated to serving the Lord in missions while in college and in each of the churches we attended throughout Texas. While in Waco, we began pursuing a call to serve overseas and discovered the opportunity to serve MKs (Missionary Kids) and TCKs (Third Culture Kids) at the Christian International School of Prague. So after months of selling our possessions and raising support, all 7 of us and 26 pieces of luggage boarded a plane and headed to Central Europe in January of 2007. We finally found a lady that would rent to us (5 kids are extremely uncommon in Europe) and moved into our house in May of 2007. Not long after we moved in we took Payton to the doctor as he was complaining of chest pains during his sleep. We were told just days later that he had Ewing's Sarcoma (a rare form of bone cancer) and would need to have surgery to remove the tumor located on his top, first rib. The surgery was not successful and they could not remove the tumor, but confirmed the diagnosis. After much prayer and counsel, we decided to return to the States for his subsequent surgeries, chemo and possible radiation. One determining factor, among many, was that Robin was expecting our 6th child, a girl no less. So we loaded on another plane and returned to Texas for Payton's long road to recovery at Cook Children's Hospital. Landry Andel was born on October 4th of 2007 (also Robin's birthday) in the middle of Payton's 9 month treatment for bone cancer. Payton's last round of chemo was in March of 2008 and we took a family Make-A-Wish trip to DisneyWorld in April. After followup tests, scans and visa applications being approved, the family, now of 8, moved back to Prague in October of 2008 and continue to serve at CISP and the TCK community of Prague. We have had a long and sometime difficult journey, but have felt the hand of God in every breath of our lives. We are truly blessed!
