Mexico imports more vehicles to the U.S. than any other nation
For the first time, Mexico imported more motor vehicles into the United States than any other nation.
According to the latest data from the U.S. Census Bureau, Mexico surpassed Japan for the month of April to rank ahead of it and Canada. Canada ranked first for all but a few months over the last decade until recently, when Japan was more likely to rank first.
It's significant because motor vehicles are the nation's leading import.
Pair that with the fact that, for the third month in a row, Mexico has been the nation's leading trade partner, something that had never happened until February.
The ascencion of Mexico to the top ranking for motor vehicle imports is one more indication of the critical role it plays in U.S. trade.
In another, albeit short-lived indication, in March, Port Laredo passed the Port of Los Angeles to become the nation's top-ranked port. The Los Angeles port reclaimed the top ranking in April.
And it's true that year-to-date, Japan still ranks first for motor vehicle imports, with 23% of the total to 22% for Mexico. Canada is at 20%. Of course, neither Canada nor Mexico have national automotive brands; instead, along with the United States, the two nations have built sophisticated supply chains to manufacture vehicles and parts for U.S., Japanese, German, Korean, Swedish and other manufacturers.
In April, however, the top two switched, each with 23% but Mexico's total was $3.28 billion compared to $3.26 billion for Japan.
Mexico, of course, is the leading market for a wide variety of U.S. imports, including motor vehicle parts, insulated wire and cable (some for the automotive industry, some for fiber optic), commercial vehicles and the tractors that pull those trailers over our highways. It is also the top source for berries, tomatoes, avocados, peppers, cucumbers and so many more fruits and vegetables.

This is one of the most important topics when we come to Shia- Sunni issues. We have seen that our Sunni fellows cannot debate on their ideology which separates these two schools of thoughts. That ideology is Shia-Sunni point of view about Caliphate and Shia-Sunni point of view about Sahaba (the companions).
So our Sunni fellows run away and make the reason that we do not want to debate with Shias because they do not believe in Quran or Shias believe that there is distortion in Quran. By this way they try to run away and keep the people away from Shias.
This is just a propaganda and running tactics by our Sunni fellows.
Shias believe in same holy Quran, which are the words of Allah, there is no distortion in Quran that some part of Quran is missing or there is no extra addition.
Everywhere in the world, there is no other Quran. Shias memorize and recite this Quran days and nights. The foundation of Shia Islam is based on same Quran which is in the hands of all Muslims.
Quran is miracle of Islam and proof of the Prophethood of messenger of Allah, Prophet Mohammad (pbuh).
It is impossible that there would be distortion or some portion is missing or something extra added in words of Allah. At the Day of Judgment people can make excuse very easily that O Allah, the words you sent for us those got mixed with right and wrong or missed from your book, that's why we could not act upon it. So Allah took the responsibly himself to preserve these words.
Shias recite this hadiths of the Prophet days and nights that the holy left two weighty things for our guidance Quran and Ahlalbait.
If there is possible distortion in Quran, How come Quran can guide us? The words of Allah have to remain between us for the guidance of people, as holy Prophet gave us guarantee.
There are many narrations from Shia Imams but we mention one here. Ali ibn e Salim narrated from his father that I asked from Imam Jaafar Sadiq: What do you say about Quran? Imam answered that Quran is words of Allah, which Allah said; this is the book of Allah.
This is revelation of Allah which he sent down to his Prophet. This is highly Regarded book, unwarranted (BATIL) cannot enter in to it from rear or opposite. This is sent down for us from Judicious, Almighty Allah. (AL AMALI page 545).
We have given the verse of Quran, Hadith from the holy Prophet and reference from Imam E Sadiq. We have also given practical proof that there is not a single copy of Quran in the world which is other than this Quran which is in our hands.
All our great scholars, from Sheikh E Sadooq to Ayatollah Khoi, Ayatollah Khomeini, Ayatollah Sistani and Ayatollah Khamenei state that there is no distortion in Quran, nothing is missing or nothing is extra added in Quran.
Please read here statements of great Shia scholars in all the times.
2- A Shia scholar Sheikh Noori Tabrasi wrote his research about it.
Sheikh Noori Tabrasi whatever he wrote in his research, it is his personal point of view. It is not fair that Sunni fellows will throw it on whole Shia school of thought. Other Shia school scholars are not agreeing with Sheikh Tabrasi, s research.
Sunni fellows have thousands of scholars, who have very funny and un-Islamic views including ibne Tamiya, is it fair that we throw it on to all Sunnis that all Sunni scholars have those views?
Let us talk about narrations in Shia books: Shias do not claim any of their books of hadith that all narrations in that book are true. Shias have some principles about their narrations.
We check the chain narrators if it is trust worthy or not, even chain of narrators seems fine but the contents of that hadith contradict with Quran. We do not accept it.
We also check that narration on real practical grounds (daryatan); we also match that narration with other true Hadith, and then make the conclusion.
Shia scholars reject all those narrations which are about the distortion of Quran because of chains of narrators and many reasons. Some narrations can be interpreted that there is no change, no addition or nothing missing from the original revelation which Jibrail brought to the holy Prophet.
There is lots of bad stuff in Sunni books of Ahdaith: is it fair that Shias will throw on Sunnis that this is all Sunni belief?
All those books written against Islam and the holy Prophet including Suleiman Rushdie's book, in those books, all narrations are taken from Sunni books of Hadith.
Sunni fellows have one school of thought between them. They call Ahl ul Quran. Their famous scholar is Ghulam Ahmad Pervez; they claim that books of hadith are like history, the stuff in the books of hadith is non-authentic. We cannot trust on Hadith. They deny the authenticity of Sunni hadith.
We just gave the picture of Sunni books of hadith that they have so much against Islam in their Ahadith.
We also want to share our words that this enough to bring bad name for Islam that we announce all narrations in Bukhari and Muslim are true.
Now we want to share some Sunni Aha-dith in their books about distortion of Quran.
Please find the narration here.
Hadith from Ibn e Maja is narrated by Aisha (wife of the holy Prophet) says "The verse of RAJAM (stoning adulterer to death) was revealed and also the verse suckling 10 times to adult man was revealed, these both verses were written on paper and were under my pillow, when holy Prophet died, we were busy in his death, the goat (of home) entered and ate them (those two those verses)".
We wanted to give English link of this hadith from this Wahhabi site www.Sunnah.com which we usually give, but unfortunately they ate chapters and chapters and thousands of narrations from their book of Hadith, Sunan ibn e Maja.
Our brothers and sisters can view by themselves; by clicking on Sunan ibn e Maja only few hundred narrations there on English website (They did the same thing with other books of Hadith because they do not want people to read their narrations in English).
The Arabic website which we posted it has 38 main Chapters and many sub-chapters, there are total narrations: 4328. We can compare how many narrations in English site.
It proves our point that there are thousands and thousands of narrations among Sunnis which they do not accept, even feel shy to share those with others. Look at Bukhari, The writer of Bukhari wasted 99 percent of narrations and selected only 1 percent. Among those 1 percent there are very shameful narrations insulting Allah (saw) and holy Prophet and also bringing bad name for Islam. We will also share narrations from Bukhari about distortion of Quran.
Shias do not have such book that they wasted 99 percent and selected 1 percent. Shias never announce about any of their book of hadith that all narrations are true there.
Please also remember our second point that if any scholar gives his opinion about any topic, or comes up with any research, it not is counted as belief of whole school of thought.
We are sharing (shameful) fatwa of two Wahhabi Saudi scholars about adult suckling, that if adult man wants to be MAHRAM of another adult lady (MAHRAM means that lady does not need to observe hijab, he becomes like her son), He can have suckling with that adult woman.
Such opinion is based on those narrations which our Sunni fellows have in their books of hadith. We have shared above the hadith, Ayesha (wife of the Prophet) used to believe strongly and she used to tell people about it, that adult man can have suckling with adult woman and can become her Mahram (son). That's why we can find such narration by Ayesha that there was a verse about it.
Such narrations are also in Muslim which is another authentic book of hadith like Bukhari.
Please find some more shocking facts about adult suckling in Sunni books of Ahadith.
If any scholar will come up with such shameful opinion on the basis of such narrations, is it fair that we throw it to all Sunnis?
Now we want to share the narrations about distortion of Quran from Sahih Al Bukhari which is the most authentic Sunni book of hadith.
Here is the link from Bukhari.
In this narration Umar bin Khattab states that verse of RAJAM is missing from Quran.
Please read the same narration in Sahih Muslim that verse of Rajam is missing from Quran.
We are giving the link from Wahhabi Saudi site also screenshot in Arabic PDF Another shot from Urdu website Urdu PDF .
Please read another narration in Bukhari which shows a great companion of The Holy Prophet used to say that last two Surahs are not the part of Holy Quran!
Please read another narration in Sahih Muslim about distortion of Quran.
There is lot more stuff in Sunni books about the distortion of Quran. But we do not want to make this article longer .We are providing a link from answering-ansar.org for detailed article about distortion of Quran.
We also want to say to our Muslim brothers and sisters that if they are sincere with Islam and holy Quran they should not provide material and proofs in the hands of others. So they could attack easily on Islam. They could make stories that Sunni - Shia both sources say that there is distortion in Quran.
Alhamdulillah both Shia Sunni believe that there is no distortion in Quran, those narrations in both sources are not true. Quran is word of Allah, there will be no distortion forever.
We believe in this short article we have provided the grounds to understand this matter.
Those they have fear of Allah and are sincere with Islam will stay away by falsely accusing each other that you guys do not believe in Quran.

The bathroom is an easy room to overlook when you are trying to go green. It performs the most basic of functions, so it already feels like it is as minimalist as a room could possibly be. However, the truth is that bathrooms can be incredibly wasteful with everyday materials and water usage.
Whether you are looking for everyday improvements or tips for your next remodeling project, there are several ways modern technology can help make your bathroom more environmentally friendly.
Lucky for us, some of the world's leading scientific minds are working on making society more eco-friendly from the ground up. Thanks to innovative new systems, water fixtures can reduce wasteful water use in the bathroom. Today's low-flow toilets and shower faucets are more high-tech than ever before.
Some efficiency methods include dual-flush options to use less water as needed, lower flow rates that maintain high water pressure, and even solar powered water heaters. Look for the WaterSense rating for water-efficient fixtures.
Cleaning supplies and bathroom products are inescapable. We need soaps and shampoos to keep ourselves clean, and a host of other cleaning supplies for the bathroom itself. Fortunately, most grocery stores today offer eco-friendly bathroom products.
Natural soaps made from plant or animal products are not only better for the environment, but your skin as well. You can make most of your cleaning supplies yourself with more gentle household products such as baking powder and toothpaste.
Traditional incandescent light bulbs are some of the most wasteful and costly products that still abound in households today. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that you can save as much as $50 per year by simply replacing 15 light bulbs with modern LED, CFL, or other EnergyStar rated lighting sources.
Some prefer a more novel approach, such as designer Miguel Melgarejo's Pillet: a toilet paper roller that stores enough kinetic energy to power a small lamp.
Low-flow technologies reduce water and save you money, but they can also provide a fun alternative to mundane appliances. Toilets like the Fish n Flush make use of a low-pressure dual tank system while brightening the bathroom with a beautiful aquarium. Ecosystem technologies put us back in touch with nature by sustainable shower forests, mossy bath mats, and compost toilet systems.
Finally, you can reduce waste in everyday increments by remaining conscientious of your practices. Be sure to fix leaks as soon as they arise to reduce water waste. Reuse water that doesn't need to go down the drain by using it to water plants or mix new cleaning products.
With a little bit of innovation and everyday awareness, anybody can have a green bathroom. Make the best of what modern technology has to offer and look for products that are certified as efficient, recycled, or organic. A little bit of mindful behavior can go a long way in a greener bathroom and more environmentally friendly lifestyle.

Q: What is a minus in top index after closing brace? I cam across a piece of math with something I have never seen before:
$$\left(R_t-\overline R\right)^-$$
Is there any chance you could help me understand how should I treat this "minus" sign in the top index after the closing brace?
Thank you
Both $R_t$ and $R$ are regular floating point numbers.
I am not sure if it will help, but the straigtt translation would be:
negative deviation from the mean
The whole thing:
SV=$\sum_{t=0}^m\left(\left(R_t-\overline R\right)^-\right)^2$
$R_t$ is the rate of return
$\overline R$ is the average rate of return
I just don't know what that - is :/

We courageously attend to our difficulties with kindness, to develop confidence and creativity. Developing self-compassion is to acquire an attitude of goodwill towards ourselves and to be able to effectively attend to ourselves when times are tough so we can get through them stronger and wiser.
Self-Compassion is not sainthood, self-indulgence, narcissism or self-pity but a brave new way to relate to our shame, anger, anxiety and distress by reconnecting with ourselves and others, in order, to ease our pain and gain greater emotional strength and well-being. The training in the practices of mindful self-compassion can create dramatic changes for the better in all aspects of our life.

Nashville Construction Accident Lawyers
Workplace accidents that cause injuries can happen in any industry, but they are especially common for construction industry workers. From basic slips and falls to more complicated incidents involving prolonged exposure to toxic chemicals, construction workers put themselves in harm's way every day at a site. What legal recourse do you have if working at a construction site eventually leads to you sustaining one or more workplace injuries?
The answer to the question is not as easy as it seems. Under the laws passed in 49 states, workers' compensation pays out claims that take care of the financial losses experienced by injured workers. Employers purchase workers comp policies that act as a financial cushion against workplace accidents, which are a common occurrence in the construction industry. However, when a general or independent contractor commits one or more acts of negligence, a construction accident turns into a personal injury case that can involve the filing of a civil lawsuit that seeks monetary damages.
If you sustained one or more injuries that were caused by a construction accident, how do you determine whether you should file a workers' compensation claim or a civil lawsuit that seeks monetary damages? The answer is by hiring one of the Nashville construction accident lawyers at Morgan and Morgan. Since 1988, the team of attorneys at Morgan and Morgan has helped clients receive compensation for the costs associated with a workplace injury. Morgan and Morgan provides legal support for both workers' compensation and personal injury cases, which means we cover all the financial bases when it comes to workplace accidents.
Schedule a free case evaluation today to determine whether your work-related injuries deserve legal support from an experienced workers' compensation or personal injury attorney.
What Are the Most Common Causes of Construction Accidents in Nashville?
When you sit down for a free case evaluation with one of the Nashville construction accident lawyers from Morgan and Morgan, one of the first items on the agenda is to determine the cause of your injuries. Understanding how you sustained injuries provides your legal counsel with information that demonstrates whether there is the presence of the four elements of negligence.
Let's review the most common causes of construction accidents in Nashville.
Construction sites present many opportunities for workers to slip and fall, which results in sustaining injuries that range from mild to severe. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), slip and fall incidents are the most common cause of construction accidents that result in worker injuries. The type of injuries sustained by a slip and fall range from a fractured wrist caused by trying to break a fall to head trauma that develops because of a hard impact on the floor or ground.
Prolonged Exposure to Toxic Chemicals
OSHA has established comprehensive regulations that require construction workers to complete training classes that prevent injuries caused by exposure to dangerous chemicals. However, far too many general and independent contractors cut corners when educating workers about the dangers of certain chemicals that are present in the workplace. The result of poor training is sustaining injuries that range from moderate burns to serious respiratory symptoms that last a lifetime. Lack of training for handling toxic chemicals is often considered negligence on the part of an employer.
Elevated Fall
Many construction workers have to work at elevated heights, from a position on a scaffold to on top of a structure. More than 40 percent of construction site accidents involve a worker falling from an elevated height. Nashville construction accident lawyers must determine whether an elevated fall is the legal responsibility of the worker involved in the incident or an employer that placed the worker in harm's way. Injuries resulting from an elevated fall include spinal cord damage and life-threatening brain trauma.
Many construction workers perform the same motions every day, which places considerable stress on certain sections of the body. For example, a construction worker that uses the same power tool every day exerts pressure on the same section of the arms. The result can be the development of a painful and even debilitating repetitive motion injury such as carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). A repetitive motion injury like CTS introduces a complex legal issue because it is often difficult to determine when an employee sustained this type of work-related injury.
One of the best Nashville construction accident lawyers from Morgan and Morgan conducts a detailed investigation to determine when an employee developed the symptoms of a repetitive motion injury.
What Should I Do After a Construction Accident?
How you handle the aftermath of a construction accident goes a long way in deciding whether you receive compensation to address the financial losses produced by sustaining one or more injuries. The first several steps of handling a construction accident are the same for both workers' compensation claims and personal injury lawsuits.
Receive Medical Care
The most costly expense that is associated with a workplace accident concerns medical bills. Diagnostic tests, treatment programs, and physical therapy sessions can quickly rack up medical bills that exceed $10,000. If you feel healthy enough, you can remain at the scene of a workplace accident to gather evidence and get contact information from witnesses. However, you should meet with a physician to determine whether you have developed delayed symptoms of a workplace injury.
Let Your Employer Know
Informing your employer about a workplace incident that produced one or more injuries is a mandatory step in the filing of a workers' compensation claim. After discovering you sustained injuries as the result of a workplace accident, your employer must explain the workers' compensation process, as well as inform the state workers' compensation board about the incident. Informing your employer also is an important step in the personal injury lawsuit process.
Collect and Organize Evidence
This step is typically handled by one of the Nashville construction accident lawyers from Morgan and Morgan. Your attorney conducts a detailed investigation that includes taking photographs of the accident scene, as well as obtaining photos of your injuries from the healthcare provider that treated you. Speaking with witnesses provides your legal counsel with information supporting medical and physical evidence. OSHA plays an integral role in gathering evidence by handing over copies of workplace safety incident reports.
How Do Nashville Construction Accident Lawyers Prove Negligence?
What differentiates a workers' compensation and personal injury case when it comes to a workplace accident? The answer is filing a personal injury lawsuit requires Nashville construction accident lawyers to demonstrate the presence of the four elements of negligence.
The duty of care doctrine stipulates that one party is responsible for the safety of a second party. General and independent contractors typically assume a duty of care for the safety of their employees. However, some construction industry relationships include stipulations outlined in a contract that places the legal burden for workplace safety on employees. At the heart of an employer's obligation to protect workers involves conducting comprehensive safety training sessions, as well as ensuring every piece of equipment is properly maintained to operate at an optimal performance level.
Committing a Negligent Act
Violating the duty of care doctrine represents the commission of one or more acts of negligence. For example, if a general contractor forced an employee to work outside during a storm and the employee sustained injuries from a slip and fall, the employee might have enough evidence to demonstrate a breach in the duty of care doctrine. The collection of medical and physical evidence is vital for proving the presence of the second element regarding negligence.
Negligent Act Caused Injuries
Any violation of the duty of care doctrine must cause a construction worker's injuries to be considered an act of negligence. Proving the third element of negligence requires Nashville construction accident lawyers to obtain and submit medical records that link a workplace accident with an employee's injuries. The attorney representing the general or independent contractor might claim the injuries sustained by a construction worker resulted from another type of incident.
Suffered Financial Losses
The last element of negligence involves showing the judge hearing your case that you suffered financial losses as a result of your injuries. Copies of time sheets and bank records should provide more than sufficient evidence you have suffered financial losses that were caused by diagnosing and treating your work-related injuries.

High rates of metallo-beta-lactamase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in Greece - a review of the current evidence

Citation style for this article: Vatopoulos A. High rates of metallo-beta-lactamase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in Greece - a review of the current evidence. Euro Surveill. 2008;13(4):pii=8023. https://doi.org/10.2807/ese.13.04.08023-en
For the last four years Greece has faced a large number of infections, mainly in the intensive care units (ICU), due to carbapenem-resistant, VIM-1-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae. The proportion of imipenem-resistant K. pneumoniae has increased from less than 1% in 2001, to 20% in isolates from hospital wards and to 50% in isolates from ICUs in 2006. Likewise, in 2002, these strains were identified in only three hospitals, whereas now they are isolated in at least 25 of the 40 hospitals participating in the Greek Surveillance System. This situation seems to be due to the spread of the blaVIM-1 cassette among the rapidly evolving multiresistant plasmids and multiresistant or even panresistant strains of mainly K. pneumoniae and also other enterobacterial species. However, the exact biological basis of this phenomenon and the risk factors that facilitate it are not yet fully understood. Moreover, the fact that most strains display minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values below or near the Clinical Laboratory Standard Institute (CLSI) resistance breakpoint create diagnostic and therapeutic problems, and possibly obstruct the assessment of the real incidence of these strains.

Are wrinkles and deep lines developing on your face? At Silhouette Surgical Spa, we offer a quick solution to your aging concerns! Injectables can be used to significantly improve your skin and provide you with a smoother, younger appearance. There are several types of fillers available on the market, most though long-lasting, will eventually be absorbed by the body. All of them are used to reduce wrinkles and deep folds resulting in a younger healthier looking facial appearance. At Silhouette Surgical Spa, Dr. Jeffrey Ptak offers dermal fillers and Botox injections to quickly improve your facial features without any downtime!
Dr. Ptak is a board-certified surgeon who strives constantly to serve the Scottsdale and Phoenix, Arizona community with world-class anti-aging treatments. He has been studying and performing plastic surgeries for over thirty years and is talented at performing precise injectable procedures. With a well-studied surgeon who has years of experience, you know you are in good hands at Silhouette Surgical Spa.
As we age, we often seek out convenient, but effective solutions to make our skin smoother. Injectables make our skin appear young in a quick, simple procedure! Injectables are applied to areas of your skin that have developed fine lines, wrinkles or appear sunken due to lost volume. The injectables will work to smooth out the lines and improve the texture of your skin. Silhouette Surgical Spa offers many types of injectables to improve your appearance.
Botox has been used therapeutically for over sixteen years to treat a variety of medical conditions. It is approved in more than seventy-five countries. Botox for therapeutic use remains one of the most widely researched medicines in the world, providing you with a safe option to enhance your appearance.
Botox is an FDA-approved neurotoxin protein that is injected into specific muscles groups that are known to cause wrinkles. The technical term for these drugs is neuromodulators that reduce, not paralyze, muscle action. The latest competitors approved in the US are Dysport and Xeomin which all have nearly identical action and duration. At the Silhouette Surgical Spa Dr Ptak uses all three drugs.
The Botox injection will work to temporarily reduce communication between the muscle and nerves. The pause in communication will relax your face and prevent further development of wrinkles and lines in the treatment area. Botox treatments last for a few months but will need to be reapplied when you notice the lines returning.
Botox is not only useful for diminishing the appearance of lines but also helps to reduce excessive sweating and migraines.
Composed of a hyaluronic acid, Juvederm XC treats lines and wrinkles around the nose and mouth. This offshoot of Juvederm contains lidocaine to enhance the comfort of the patient. Juvederm XC will enhance your facial features for up to a year!
Juvederm Voluma XC is also a hyaluronic acid-based filler that is used to improve the midfacial area, specifically the cheeks. This injectable is often used to add volume back to areas that have become hollow looking with age. This filler also contains lidocaine, which reduces discomfort caused by injection.
Restylane is a popular hyaluronic acid-based filler that corrects moderate to severe wrinkles that may appear from the edge of the nose to the mouth.
Lips may also be improved and enhanced with Restylane, however Dr Ptak is very conservative with lip injections to avoid the overdone "duck lips" so often seen with inexperienced injectors.
Restylane is now prepared in three different consistencies to further customize your result.
This is an advanced, FDA-approved permanent injectable that treats moderate to severe lines, as well as acne scars for beautiful results. This injectable has a collagen base that uses miniscule microspheres to enhance the structure of the filler. This revolutionary filler will improve the quality and structure of your skin for up to five years. Dr Ptak also uses this filler to restructure the cheeks and jawline where aging of the facial bones causes volume loss.
This injectable will work to improve lines and wrinkles all over the face.
Sculptra is composed of poly-l-lactic acid micro fibers that improves volume and stimulates collagen growth. This filler will work to enhance your skin texture for up to two years. Sculptra is very effective to enhance moderate overall volume loss of the face and is typically injected in larger volumes of 5, 10, 15, or 20 cc increments.
Dr. Ptak offers his patients a diverse amount of options to approach and improve their specific concerns.
Injectables offer many advantages, such as improving the quality and structure of your skin as well as enhancing and restoring the facial volume loss that is inevitable with aging. Injectables can also help you fight aging by reducing the development of future lines and wrinkles.
The most noted advantage of injectables are there ease of application. Injectables are nonsurgical and require no incisions.
This lets patients have fast, non-invasive procedures that require no downtime. For significant improvement, try injectables to reduce your wrinkles!
Anyone with moderate to severe wrinkles or folds or volume loss can benefit from absorbable and permanent injectable cosmetic fillers. The procedure can also be used to sculpt the face, fill in hollow cheeks, improve a chin or jawline, and to enhance other areas where fat loss can result in a hollow or gaunt appearance. Those with deeper folds, such as laugh lines around the mouth may decide to use a non-absorbable product for permanent results. Since Dr. Ptak is also a national expert in fat grafting techniques he can also explain and contrast the relative benefits of commercial fillers versus fat grafting for each individual patient. We encourage anyone who is interested in the many benefits of injectables to reach out to our offices to see how this simple procedure can improve your life!
There are numerous injectable fillers, Dr. Ptak will examine your face and current health to choose which filler will benefit you the most. The products can be roughly grouped into a few categories.
Biologically-based. Biologically-based collagen stimulants such as Sculptra and fat can be used for filling in wrinkles and folds as well as more diffuse volume loss with results that can last for years.
Hyaluronic Acid. Hyaluronic acid-based fillers are a common choice as hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the body. Hyaluronic acid-based fillers are popular because they will be broken down and naturally metabolized by the body.
Dr. Ptak will walk you through the procedure with you and how you can best prepare for it. Do not apply lotions or other products to the treatment sites before your appointment. Dr. Ptak normally applies a topical anesthesia before the procedure begins to help improve the experience. If you are sensitive to discomfort, ask about further options during your consultation. You should avoid antihistamines about two weeks before the procedure to decrease your chances of developing bruises.
Together, Dr. Ptak and you will customize a treatment plan that achieves your cosmetic goals.
All of the various products are injected directly into the area requiring improvement. For simple correction of wrinkles one treatment may be all that is required. For areas requiring more extensive sculpting, several injection treatments may be necessary. Applied with a delicate hand and years of experience with the patients safety always foremost, Dr. Ptak understands how each injectable will improve your unique concern and will recommend the best injectable for your needs.
When you arrive for your treatment, a topical anesthetic will be administered. Once this has taken effect, Dr. Ptak will apply the injections to the predetermined areas. Dr. Ptak may massage the treated areas to distribute the filler and ensure your aesthetic goal is achieved. Once the injections have been completed, you may return to your regular schedule. This treatment commonly takes about twenty minutes.
Care required following the use of injectables will vary depending on the particular product used. Common post treatment practices include use of antibiotics, application of specific oils or creams, or daily massage of the face.
When leaving the appointment, the injection sites may be numb, red, swollen or bruised. An icepack, applied delicately, will help reduce these symptoms. After twenty-four hours, a light layer of makeup can be applied. The above symptoms should diminish within forty-eight hours.
Injectables that use collagen will improve the structure of your skin and return a youthful perkiness; overall, you will enjoy a smoother textured skin. These results will be immediately noticeable and improve through the first few days after treatment. The results longevity will depend on the injectable used. Some treatments will last up to three months, while others last for up to five.
Injectables are a simple procedure that pair well with other treatments. Dr. Ptak offers many solutions that can be used alongside injectables to provide you with a comprehensive transformation.
This technique is a more invasive process but provides long-lasting, natural feeling enhancements that can be applied all over the body. This technique uses liposuction to collect donor fat from one area of the body. The fat collected during liposuction is processed and injected to another area. This procedure improves the contour of both areas of the body involved in the treatment.
The process is minimally-invasive and commonly used to enhance the facial region and neck, breasts, and buttocks. Fat grafting helps to improve your body in a natural, safe way. If you are interested in the dramatic results a fat transfer will have on your appearance, discuss your options with Dr. Ptak.
Each procedure will be personalized to fit our patient's goals and specific anatomical features. Prices will differ between each patient based on these individualized procedures. If you would like a price break down of your own, customized treatment plans, schedule a consultation with Dr. Ptak today at (480) 451-9220! We offer our patients beautiful, natural improvements carried out with a caring touch!

Brave volunteer firefighters from Whyalla who have been battling blazes around the country have been buoyed by a special fundraiser. Triple Y, Whyalla's community radio station, hosted a 24-hour radiothon on Friday, raising a total of $1440 for the Iron Knob Country Fire Service. Triple Y Presenter Simeon Spargo hosted Iron Knob CFS Captain Shannon Doble and firefighter Dimitri Antonio on his show the Firday Furnace to discuss the fundraiser. Speaking to the Whyalla News, Mr Doble said crews had been fighting fires in Queensland, New South Wales, and South Australia, including Kangaroo Island. Shannon and Dimitri were deployed to NSW late last year. They were stationed at Glen Innes and were tasked with assisting the existing crews through asset protection. "It was hard to know what we were going into, with the weather changing as rapidly as it was. We could see all the smoke from the fires as we were flying in," Mr Doble said. "We went over there with the aim to help and we were able to assist where we were required. It was fairly similar terrain down there to what we were used to, but also very different fire activity to what we had seen before. "The unpredictable weather and lack of water were the most challenging part of the experience." Mr Antonio said the experience was a 'big eye-opener' for him, but also an opportunity to put his skills to the test. "It was great to get over there and help out, I think everyone goes over with a similar mindset - to help the local brigades out and give them a bit of a break," he said. "Most people were happy to see us down there. Our captain was from Kangaroo Island so he was very experienced and he passed on some skills that he knew to us." Mr Doble said it was 'phenomenal' what Triple Y had been able to achieve with their fundraiser, and their support had been 'fantastic'. "We'll be putting the money towards purchasing firefighting equipment that will assist us in our duties," he said. Radio presenter Simeon Spargo said the duties during the radiothon were shared, with a total of seven members hosting their shows throughout the day. "We decided to help out the local CFS because they don't get much funding. We ran a GoFundMe page and collected donations through that - people were so generous with their donations," he said. "As well as taking donations we gave the CFS exposure on air and through Facebook, which might help them get more volunteers, so it was a real win-win."

Yes, you are. Well, you were. You delicious gyro, you. I still get misty-tongued thinking back on that afternoon - the afternoon of the gyro with hot sauce, the diet coke from Subway, the walk through Greenwich Village. Altogether, a very pleasant summer day.
"Third, there is the New York of the person who was born somewhere else and came to New York in quest of something. Of these trembling cities the greatest is the last--the city of final destination, the city that is a goal. It is this third city that accounts for New York's high strung disposition, its poetical deportment, its dedication to the arts, and its incomparable achievements."
New York, you're my gyro and my hero.

This Day in History 1968: Vietnam Tet Offensive and Nixon's Treason
U.S. Embassy in Saigon, January 1968. Source: Consortium News
On the day of Tết (Vietnamese New Year) I encourage the reader to think about a 1968 Viet Cong breach of the US Embassy and how it relates to a violent 2021 Capitol Hill insurrection:
En route to the American Embassy, the sappers were spotted driving without lights by a South Vietnamese civilian policeman. This member of the South Vietnamese National Police force, referred to as the white mice, chose to avoid problems and stepped back into the shadows as the truck and taxi passed by. The sappers had similar good fortune confronting the embassy's first line of defense. After turning onto Thong Nhut Boulevard, they encountered four police officers, but the policemen fled without firing a shot.
This day in 1968 had a profound impact on American sentiment and consequences of the Vietnam War, due to reporting like this.
It abruptly became abundantly clear to Americans sitting at home that things were not going well for their government.
In other words sentiment shifted to ending US operations and talk about a withdrawal. We need to remember how a breach of the US Embassy had an outsized role in that shift.
The policemen did not stop the insurrectionists.
The US government building was breached.
Now hold those two thoughts.
Historians have since revealed also in 1968 (given the shifting sentiment during a Presidential campaign year) the GOP intentionally destroyed chances of peace, killing tens of thousands of Americans needlessly, just to get themselves into office:
…the Paris Peace talks, intended to put an end to the 13-year-long Vietnam War, failed because an aide working for then-Presidential candidate Richard Nixon convinced the South Vietnamese to walk away from the dealings.
The GOP Presidential candidate blew up peace talks of the US intentionally to make more Americans suffer and in pain elect him president on a false promise he would fix the mess he created (a lie quickly revealed as he instead expanded the war and increased deaths 10s of thousands more).
Here's a more detailed account:
…Chennault — the China-born widow of World War II hero Gen. Claire Chennault of the famed Flying Tigers and a major Nixon fund-raiser — passed word to South Vietnam President Nguyen Van Thieu that if he boycotted planned peace talks in Paris, he could count on the support of a President Nixon. The Nixon campaign feared that Thieu's presence would result in a deal that would end the war and swing the election to Humphrey. President Lyndon Johnson had ordered a halt in the bombing of Hanoi, also raising those hopes. But when Thieu indeed stayed away, the talks collapsed and Nixon was elected by 0.7 percent of the vote.
It gets even worse:
Nixon, in getting away with the Chennault caper, may have convinced himself he could do so again in Watergate. "If only we had known," Mr. Hughes wrote. "Nixon wasn't a rogue with a redemptive streak of patriotism. He played politics with peace to win the 1968 election. He did the same to win re-election in 1972 at the cost of thousands of American lives." The tragedies that marked 1968 were horrible enough, without evidence that the winner of its presidential election did so by engaging in an illegal and despicable scheme to sabotage a sitting president's efforts to end the Vietnam War.
Nixon was breaking the law, not to mention acting obviously immorally.
President Johnson himself privately called Nixon treasonous yet never publicly dropped this word because he underestimated the GOP threat to democracy.
After Johnson privately deemed Nixon's actions as treasonous, an extraordinary call occurred between Johnson and Nixon, in which Nixon did enough to satisfy the President's concerns to prevent Johnson from going public about the Chennault actions. Johnson had hoped that, to the extent possible, Vietnam would not be an issue in the fall campaign, and that the three candidates (Nixon, Humphrey, and George Wallace) would not interfere with his attempts to achieve a peace settlement before he left office.
Nixon was predictably turning the GOP into exactly what Truman in 1952 publicly blasted Eisenhower for allowing (with Nixon as VP candidate) — the same kind of party behavior (fascism) that the US had just fought WWII to remove from power.
The Republican candidate [Eisenhower] for the Presidency cannot escape responsibility for his endorsements. He has had an attack of moral blindness, for today, he is willing to accept the very practices that identified the so-called 'master-race' although he took a leading part in liberating Europe from their domination. I do not withdraw a word of that statement. […] …Senator Nixon [candidate for Vice President] and most Republicans, voted to override any veto of the McCarran bill, which is recognized everywhere as discriminatory.
Eisenhower was too soft on Nixon. LBJ was too soft on Nixon.
Nixon let tens of thousands of Americans die and delayed their safety so that he could take control of government.
And just for reference, Ronald Reagan would repeat this strategy for the GOP in 1980 when he delayed the safety of hostages in Iran in order to take control of government.
I am not trying here to minimize the impact of the 1968 military "Tet Offensive" (or all the warnings that it was coming) as hugely impactful to American sentiment and strategy in the Vietnam War.
Here's a fine example of what that narrative looks like from the Army War College:
In contrast to the Viet Cong's previous strategies of raiding, the Viet Cong occupied Huế and captured thousands of civilians and prisoners of war. Bullington was serving as a Foreign Service Officer at the time, and found himself in Hue in unusual circumstances. In this podcast, Bullington tells both his personal story (a love story in the midst of a war) and about the broader implications of the battle. While historians still debate the impact of the Tet Offensive and the Battle of Hue on the conduct of the American War in Vietnam, this story reminds us of the personal narratives and consequences that are also central to war.
Here's another first-person narrative: "…the longer we stayed in Vietnam the more Viet Cong there were because we created them, we produced them…"
I am trying to draw attention to the fact that a US Embassy breach, and its reporting, should not be lost on anyone looking for insights from history.
If only more Americans could have understood how their personal narratives and consequences were being shaped by the domestic variant of fascism after 1948 — anti-democratic forces infiltrating and taking control of the GOP… now it's just history.
Or is it?
Last I heard today's GOP still are playing some of these games. Not to mention police didn't stop the insurrectionists attacking an American government building on January 6, 2021…
53 years after a January violent offensive overran US government facilities, and a GOP ruthlessly and intentionally lied to undermine democracy, current news basically has us still talking about the same things.

LINCOLN — Sophomore guard Thomas Allen's name has been entered into the NCAA transfer portal, according to a source inside the Nebraska basketball program.
The 6-foot-1, 184-pound shooter wait to make a decision on if he'll leave Nebraska after a new head coach is hired, and after he's gauged interest from other schools.
Tim Miles was fired from Nebraska on Tuesday after seven seasons. Allen is the first player to enter the portal since Miles' firing.
Allen, a former four-star, was one of Miles' top recruits in the 2017 class. He averaged 8.7 points per game this season, shooting 43 percent from the floor and 35 percent from 3-point range. He started in 25 of 29 games this year, playing about 30 minutes.
Allen suffered a high-ankle sprain at Michigan in mid-March, sidelining him for the rest of the season.
LINCOLN — Nebraska Athletic Director Bill Moos announced Wednesday that Jim Molinari will serve as interim head coach for the Husker men's basketball team.
Moos said Tuesday that he anticipates the search for a head coach will take between seven and 14 days, and that former Iowa State and Chicago Bulls head coach Fred Hoiberg is on his list of candidates.

Any suggestions on good books?
Vampirism Forum :: Religion & Spirituality

I'm always on the hunt for good books, definitely it counts for occult toppics and I must admit that for vamp toppic too.
I have Asetian collection and books of Father Sebastiaan, as you probably already know. But would love to see if you can suggest me other books on the toppic that are at least worth of reading... if there even are any.
Also if you have any recomendations on good occult books, I'm always oppen to posibility.

I am somewhat far from the topic here, but I will still make my small contribution to the note.
There is one Russian author: Ksenia Menshikova. I have been studying with her for many years. She has her own website and a whole selection of occult books. These books are sorted by religious, doctrines, absolutely different, different directions. I listen to this author's YouTube video, but she speaks Russian. Therefore, at least the book can be translated, especially in the electronic version, it can probably be found and translated using an automatic translator. I like that she reviews everything.
I will add to those that are already here (some I know and have read): The Egyptian Book of the Dead, the Vedas, Homer (all books), almost any of the ancient books contains hidden keys, it is not necessary that it be occult, Lao Tzu, the Elder Edda, Julia Wang's book (I don't know if you will find, I have it on paper), "The Book of Witchcraft Keys" by Mansur, Alexander Sheps (but this is very individual), the Small Key of Solomon, the Book of Jonah.
Barely found it: "The Book of Gates", "The Book of Breath", "The Book of the Afterlife", "The Book of the Earth", "The Book of the Heavenly Cow", "The Book of Caves", "The Litany of Ra", "The Book of Pyramids", "The Book of Sarcophagi", "The History of the Ancient East. Texts and documents". - To avoid incorrect translation - "Книга врат", "Книга дыхания", "Книга загробного мира", "Книга земли", "Книга Небесной Коровы", "Книга пещер", "Литания Ра", "Книга пирамид", "Книга Саркофагов", "История Древнего Востока. Тексты и документы" - Yandex is twisting the names, so I'll give you more in Russian.
I don't pretend to be a particularly smart message right now (laughter).

Since its launch in 2009, Ubisoft's Just Dance 2015 game series has kept players moving and grooving. Just Dance 2015 represents the sixth installment in the active game series where players keep to the beat and closely follow the colorful silhouette dancers. This game keeps on giving more content and unlockables as players dance through the tracks by themselves or with up to eight friends plus extra fitness and karaoke gameplay.
Developed by Ubisoft Paris/Millan and published by Ubisoft, Just Dance 2015 expand the controller options to three to get more players involved.
Music track choice is very good so most tracks will warrants additional plays. Developers also offer some nice enhancements. Progression to unlock avatars and animations adds some variety as does the sing along karaoke option. Calorie workouts and the community remix option, which features other player performances worked into the song (players appear instead of avatars), boost the replay value as well.
Performance is evaluated in points with a generic text grade (e.g. "Perfect" or "OK") and the technical performance works smoothly expect for the occasional snafu. The progression is worth it as players can unlock various items to enhance the experience.
Initially players are presented with an unavoidable challenge (unless you restart) to get oriented. Players are not overwhelmed with various modes and instead have multiple ways to re-experience the same songs through two methods – online play and competitive play. Modes include Trio, Dance Mashup, World Dancefloor, and Just Dance VIP featuring recording capabilities that make performances into playable videos.
On the technical side, it is very important to optimize the PlayStation camera for camera control and web connectivity for online play. This first camera option is the only hands free choice and requires strong lighting for optimal performance. Players still have the PlayStation Move controller option as well, which seemed to be a little more accurate for my kids, but didn't make much of a difference for the adults. Would assume a next-gen console version of Just Dance Kids is on the way.
Don't have the camera or PS Move? Try the third and most interesting control option – the Just Dance 2015 Motion Controller App (available on most smartphones) works like the PS Move to track player movements.
The multiplayer gameplay is entertaining for participants and viewers. It's great all ages fun with many benefits. Players can easily share performances on social media and even earn special highlight in the community area for being the most popular.
Menu navigation is deeper, so it's occasionally harder to find modes and options. The game definitely works to minimize navigation time that basically split between offline and online gameplay.
Additional downloadable content (DLC) songs include "We Can't Stop" by Miley Cyrus, "Funhouse" by P!nk, "Want U Back" by Cher Lloyd ft. Astro, "C'mon" by Ke$ha and "Kiss You" by One Direction plus many more on the way.
Also available on PS3, Xbox One, Xbox 360, Wii U or Wii (the last Wii game release in North America). Just Dance Now ad-supported app was also released as an alternative version to the console version and works when connected to a TV, computer or tablet plus Chromecast.
Just Dance Now, which is an ad-supported app version of the game available on Google Play and the App Store for a free download. No need for a console here, because players can connect to the game on a TV, computer, or tablet.

This report studies the global Fiber Optic Cable Assembly market size, industry status and forecast, competition landscape and growth opportunity. This research report categorizes the global Fiber Optic Cable Assembly market by companies, region, type and end-use industry.
The most prominent factor driving the fiber optic cables market growth is rapidly growing internet traffic worldwide. With increasing proliferation of mobile devices, number of internet users is on rapid rise since the past few years. As of March 2018, there were nearly 3.74 Bn internet users across the globe, resulting into higher requirement of internet bandwidth. The demand for unceasing bandwidth is yielding significant growth in the global fiber optic cables market. Fiber optic cable provides a constant, stable and fast internet connection that allows high speed data transfer with minimal interference. In recent past, it has become noticeable that fiber optic cables are rapidly replacing copper cables and other metal wires due to their wide range of advantages over electrical transmission.
Furthermore, increasing expenditure on network infrastructure development is another major factor pushing the demand for fiber optic cables. Considering the immense benefits of fiber optic cables, more number of network providers are shifting towards establishing optical networks. Advent of Internet of Things (IoT) is expected to generate high demand for internet bandwidth in the following years. Thus, growing number of connected devices is expected to further support the market growth. However, high installation costs coupled with complex installation process of fiber optic cables acts as a restrain to the market. In addition, lack of industry standards have also hindered the demand for fiber optic cables in industrial environments as well as in subscriber networks.
In 2018, the global Fiber Optic Cable Assembly market size was 1080 million US$ and it is expected to reach 1960 million US$ by the end of 2025, with a CAGR of 7.8% during 2018-2025.

Q: android: resetting rollover count i just encountered an odd behavior while developing and debugging an android app on my nexus 7. log cat prompts me with always the same error message, pretty much every 60 seconds.
E    07-08 15:38:08.575   566   qcom_sensors_hal   hal_process_time_resp: Resetting rollover count from 0 to 7

E    07-08 15:40:14.388   566   qcom_sensors_hal   hal_process_time_resp: Resetting rollover count from 0 to 7

i'm pretty sure, it has nothing to do with my app, since it constantly shows up, regardless of whether my app is running or not.
nevertheless i would be interested, what causes this message and if it's something i should worry about.

A: There is a whole redit post devoted to this, it might be worth checking out this: http://www.reddit.com/r/Nexus5/comments/20g0vj/150_linessec_qcom_sensors_hal_logcat_spam_causing/

A: There is also this discussion on a Google Code Library with GL Memory errors and this comes up - https://code.google.com/p/libgdx/issues/detail?id=1427.
Seems to be an error caused by an OEM library for whatever sensor it is trying to use at that time.  It is having trouble getting a response that it likes, so it sets a timeout and tries again, and again and again until it gets satisfied.  Could be any sensor, but looks like most common culprit is the accelerometer or something in Location Services.
