The summer days will never be complete without blueberries by your side. They remain one of the best summer treats you can have. Blueberries are not only sweet but are equally succulent, filled with nutrients and can be eaten fresh or incorporated into your recipes. As one of the North American native fruits, it has also found its way to various parts of the world because of its yummy taste.
You may just be enjoying the fact that blueberries are tasty, but you do not know that this 'special super food' has fantastic health benefits attached to its sweet taste. In this guide, we will unravel the unlimited health benefits belonging to this super yummy berry.
Blueberries have the highest antioxidant capacity compared to other fruits, protecting you from damage by free radicals and unstable molecules that contribute greatly to aging and chronic diseases like cancer. This means that blueberries are effective immune builders that fight against infection whilst at the same time acting as a strong anti-bacterial fighter in your body's system.
Blueberries enhance urinary tract health by inhibiting the growth of the bacteria responsible for urinary tract infection that results in the burning sensation experienced during the passage of urine. They cleanse the b-coli bacteria from your body's system and prevent the infection from surfacing.
Blueberries are a phytonutrient anti-oxidant food because of their content of Anthocyanins, having the ability to protect the retina from damage by unwanted oxygen, oxidative stress and sunlight. It also slows down or reduces the occurrence of vision loss and other connected ocular issues such as; hypermetropia, myopia, cataract and infections that pertain to the retina. They also contain vitamins C, E and A, zinc, selenium, phosphorus and a group of Flavonoids known as Carotenoids which are equally vital to ocular health.
Blueberries are your answer to belly fat and other related cardiovascular diseases. They will lower your abdominal fat, lower your cholesterol level, lower your triglycerides and enhance your fasting glucose level, while also raising your insulin sensitivity. They also contain fibre which enhance weight loss by reducing your appetite and increasing your satiety therefore lowering your general calorie intake.
Blueberries are free from sodium, which contributes to high blood pressure. However, its content of magnesium, potassium and calcium are also an added advantage to the natural ways of controlling and regulating your blood pressure.
Anthocyanins, vitamins A, B-complex, C and E, zinc, potassium, magnesium, phosphorus and selenium content in blueberries can prevent and heal neurotic disorders by reducing degeneration and death of neurons and brain-cells thereby restoring the health of your central nervous system. This simply means that they can help your memory to function optimally and enhance brain health.
If living a healthy life is a priority to you, grab a bowl of blueberries and reap the rewards of the unlimited health benefits.


It's official: the ladies of Kappa Kappa Tau will return to Fox.
The network on Friday announced a Season 2 renewal for Ryan Murphy's slasher comedy Scream Queens, putting an end to months of speculation about the ratings-challenged series' future.
Scream Queens' first season ended in December with the long-awaited reveal of Lea Michele's Hester as the dreaded Red Devil terrorizing Wallace University. As part of the renewal announcement, it was also confirmed that Season 2 will take place in a hospital.
Though Scream Queens averaged just 2.8 million weekly viewers and a 1.1 demo rating, Fox notes that only 30 percent of its audience watched live, with 26 percent catching up on DVR and 44 percent viewing via VOD and Hulu.
We'll keep you updated as more information becomes available, but for now, drop a comment with your thoughts below: Are you happy about the renewal? What would you like to see more (or less) of in Season 2?


I have been sitting with two pieces of news from the past week, and am still unable to express anything past open hands.
Political progress is happening for transgender people. Here, students are protected in their bathroom use; their, trans people are included in hate crime laws. And yet… change is too slow in the world, on the streets, outside the bars, in the backyards where real life is lived.
CeCe McDonald, a black trans woman, is in a men's jail, after killing one of the white men who attacked her and some friends, on the street, while out to buy groceries. It's clearly a case of self-defense. The racism and anti-trans feeling in this case are breathtaking. See the Trans Women's Anti-Violence project for an article. A men's jail is a terrifying prospect for any trans person.
Meanwhile, I heard this (un)surprising new statistic; in 2011, the highest percentage of LGBT violence was against trans women of color (here's a link). My first response was – this is news? Hasn't anybody been going to or reading about the Transgender Day of Remembrance events? Really?
I wish I could've been surprised by this statistic. Or not. I'd like to be surprised by a study showing the incidence of violence against trans people (and all LGBT people) to be on the wane.
Like many other men of transgender experience, I have a sense of helplessness. Who am I even to mention this news? My rage and sadness don't matter to the women out there. I do what I can, but I am not in my sisters' shoes.
There is just no adequate response. So… be aware, everyone. We are all just people looking for love, and groceries.

Scotland round up Cyprus Cup with Welsh victory
Wednesday 8 March 2017
After a hectic last eight days, Scotland rounded up their 2017 Cyprus Cup journey with a victory on penalties over Wales.
Despite dominating the second-half, Scotland were unable to break the deadlock and it went to penalties to decide who would finish fifth in this year's competition.
Substitute Frankie Brown stepped up to seal the 6-5 win for Scotland in a shoot-out where Shannon Lynn also saved a penalty.
Anna Signeul's team now take on Belgium in an April friendly as preparations for Euro 2017 continue.
At the venue of Scotland's 1-1 January draw with Denmark, Rachel McLauchlan made her first start and looked composed on the ball, showing great awareness to thwart attacks and play promising balls forward to the midfield.
25 minutes into the game Scotland had their first sniff of goal when Kirsty Smith saw a rasping dive tipped over the bar.
Seven minutes later Scotland received a set-back when Hibernian Captain Joelle Murray was forced off through injury and Frankie Brown came into the centre of defence.
With the scores goalless at the break, Jane Ross came on, searching for her 50th Scotland goal.
She was close to scoring it after 61 minutes when she saw a shot trundle wide, having found room in the box.
Moments later, fellow substitute Lisa Evans cracked the ball off the crossbar and the rebound fell to Jane who failed to direct it anywhere apart from the goalkeeper's arms.
With 10 minutes remaining Jane Ross went close again, smashing the ball narrowly over the bar but the match was to be decided on penalties.
Jane Ross, Lisa Evans, Lizzie Arnot, Leanne Crichton and Fiona Brown all scored and Frankie Brown was presented the chance to win the match which she duly despatched for Scotland to win 6-5.
Afterwards, shot stopper Shannon Lynn, who has played in all four Cyprus Cup games said: "We really grew into the game and had a lot of chances in the second-half that we should have finished.
"Our main goal was to keep a clean sheet so to do that was brilliant.
"The penalties were exciting and gave us practice in that situation. I managed to save one too, which was nice.
"The last four games gave us experience of playing lots of games in a short space of time which is something we can take into Euro 2017. It's been a really positive experience as a whole."
SCOTLAND | Shannon Lynn, Rachel McLauchlan, Ifeoma Dieke, Joelle Murray (Frankie Brown, 32), Kirsty Smith, Leanne Ross (Fiona Brown, 80), Leanne Crichton, Caroline Weir, Lizzie Arnot, Christie Murray (Lisa Evans, 57) Erin Cuthbert (Jane Ross, 45).
Unused substitutes: Gemma Fay, Lee Alexander.

Blue stone paddocks are available when weather or wet conditions won't allow for regular turnout. Normal turnout is all day in the winter and all night in the summer. Turnout can be customized as necessary with private and semi-private offerings.
We are a serious, but fun training barn and encourage the same of our boarders. The welfare of the horses is first and foremost in our training methods. We strongly believe that a happy, healthy, confident horse makes the best partner. Positive, supportive, and correct training and lessons are offered by our resident FEI trainer, Siobhan Byrne. We can often be found showing during the summer months and love to have a barn group join us.

Slum dwellers' struggle reaches Day 8
Ghar Bachao Ghar Banao struggle continues, Anna Hazare support brings media to Azad Maidan in large numbers for first time.
The Medha Patkar-led agitation of Mumbai's slum dwellers and those affected by scams in the Slum Rehabilitaion Authority continued yesterday, with a major shot in the arm: activist Anna Hazare landed at Azad Maidan to pledge his support to the protest and the relay fasts being undertaken therein.
With Anna's presence at Azad Maidan at 2 pm, media personnel descended at the venue in large numbers, probably for the first time since the agitation began.
As per a press note issued by the National Alliance of People's Movements (NAPM), "The continuing struggle of Mumbai's slum dwellers entered a new phase today…Shri Anna Hazare visited Azad Maidan and expressed his support to the struggle for right to shelter. In a democratic republic with the Constitution written in the name of the people, no Government has any right to evict people in a brutal manner and make them homeless, he said, calling a halt to the atrocities."
Earlier, Mankhurd MLA and Samajwadi Party honcho Abu Azmi visited Azad Maidan to express solidarity with the protesters; he was initially heckled and questioned about his absence from the start of the Andolan. Eventually, he agreed to support the protest and join the delegation that meets the Chief Minister at Mantralaya today.
"The GBGB Andolan received the minutes with decision by the CM and the Mantralaya, yesterday night. We, from Azad Maidan, sent a reply demanding certain clarifications and suggestions," Patkar said. The Andolankars have, however, forwarded a set of demands, some of which are: the Government must provide a written assurance of no further evictions till enquiry reports into the first group of SRA projects are out, a GBGB representative should be part of the enquiry process, and that slums must be declared within a month and provided with all basic amenities, among others.

Q: How does this leetcode solution work? (Finding a single number in an array) Backstory:

So I was on leetcode for the first time and I found an easy problem that seemed interesting and solved it. I was looking at other people's submissions afterward and found this and was blown away. I have a basic understanding of the bitwise xor operator, but I really have no understanding of how this solution works. I would really appreciate a quick summary of what is happening because this seems really interesting.

Problem:
Given a non-empty array of integers, every element appears twice except for one. Find that single one.
NOTE: Your algorithm should have a linear runtime complexity. Could you implement it without using extra
memory?
Example 1:
  Input: [2,2,1]
  Output: 1

Example 2:
  Input: [4,1,2,1,2]
  Output: 4

Solution:
def single_number(list):
  result = 0
    for num in list:
      result ^= num
  return result

credit to mack0094 for this solution

A: The most important point here is the XOR operator denoted by ^. If we write "result ^= num" this also can be written as "result = result ^ num"
This solution works because we are guaranteed that every element appears twice except 1 of the elements.
Using XOR, any time we XOR a number twice by the same number, we get the same original number. For example: 4 ^ 1 = 5 and 5 ^ 1 = 4. Another way to say this is:
4 ^ 1 ^ 1 = 4.
Note also any number XOR 0 is the number itself, example: 0 ^ 5 = 5
We loop through all the elements in the list. Let's see what happens with the input [2, 2, 1]:
def single_number(list):
    result = 0
    for num in list:
      result ^= num
      print(result)
    return result

The print statement will yield:
2
0
1

Result starts as 0.
1st iteration: result = result ^ num = 0 ^ 2 = 2
2nd iteration: result = result ^ num = 2 ^ 2 = 0
3rd iteration: result = result ^ num = 0 ^ 1 = 1

You have to get down XOR logic first. Then convince yourself if a number appears twice it'll get the single digit number back to its original form. Another example:
[2, 3, 4, 3, 4]
2 ^ 3 = 1
1 ^ 4 = 5
5 ^ 3 = 6
6 ^ 4 = 2

A: first, we have two facts about the xor operator:

*

*x xor x = 0

*xor is commutative and associative. this effectively allows us to reorder the input sequence to our convenience, and we know that the result will be the same.

to see why the algorithm works – group the input sequence into pairs.
for example: we can write a sample input sequence as (a xor a) xor (b xor b) xor (c xor c) xor d. the input sequence doesn't have to be in this form, but we can always rearrrange it.
notice that each pair evaluates to 0, and the result of 0 xor d = d, which is the number we want to find.

A: Simplified Explanation
If we Xor any even number of identical numbers the result will be zero. As long as there is one value that doesn't have an identical pair we will have a value that is not 0.
The Xor converts to binary and compares 2 bits. if the bits are the same the result is 0, else 1. Doing this constructs a new number.
Below is a table:
  0111
^ 1010
======
  1101 = 13

If we compare 2 numbers that are the same then the resulting number is 0. When we compare a number to 0 the resulting number is the compared number. 2 ^ 0 = 2. Because no bits line up. Therefore a list constructed of the following numbers will also work [2,2,2,1,1,1,1] The 1's cancel themselves out and the first 2's cancel themselves. All that's left is a single 2. Hope this makes sence.

The key difference between branch banking and unit banking is that while branch bank operates through branches; unit Bank is generally a single branch small bank, which provides financial services to the local community.
In Branch Banking, the Branches in India are set up under Section 23 of Banking Regulations Act, 1949. A branch should cater to all banking services and include a specialised branch, a satellite office, an extension counter, an ATM, administrative office, service branch and a credit card centre for the purpose of branch authorisation policy. It helps in better management, more inclusion and risk diversification.
On the other hand, Unit banking is a limited way of banking where banks operate only from a single branch (or a few branches in the same area) taking care of local community. Unit system of banking originated in the united States. In Unit system, the size of banks is small as compared to branch banking. Due to small scale of operations and quick decisions, the work is more efficient. These banks are involved in developmental works in the areas of operations. The management enjoys more autonomy and thus more discretionary powers. However, due to single units, the risk is not distributed or diversified. It may however encourage outside local influences.
The following table differentiates between Branch and Unit Banking.
Bank operates through branches connected to each other. Each branch provides usual banking services but the control is done by the head office or central office. Unit Bank is generally a single branch small bank, which provides financial services to the local community in which it operates. There are no branches or small branches in a limited locality only.
Branch Banking is more stable and resilient to ups and downs in the local economy because of backing by other branches and head office. Unit banks are vulnerable to failure and are subject to heavy risk in case of failure of local economy.
Branch Banking has less operational freedom. Unit Banking has more operational freedom.
Branch banking has more financial resources at its disposal. The financial resources in unit banking are concentrated only in one unit.
Since decision making is controlled by the head office, the process is slow in branch banking. Further, Branch banking involves higher costs of supervision. Decision making is fast due to all decision to be made in one unit. Unit banking involves lower cost of supervision.
Branch banking goes hand in hand with the division of labour. Some branches may offer specialized services. Since there is one unit, there is no division of labour and no specialization in service.

The other day I wrote an Ig post about this topic and wasn't able to fit in all my great tips so I figured I would elaborate here!
I hear quite often that cooking from home is something everyone wants to do but has difficulty fitting into their week. This can be a combination of factors. First off what doesn't come second nature will be difficult. And lets be honest, anything that is difficult we won't want to do after working 10 hours, sitting in commuting traffic or to add to an already overflowing to-do list!
So lets break it down to easy manageable steps.
Get Organized! Organization starts with YOU and will leak into every other area of your life. Instead of having a never ending to-do list break down what you are going to do and when you are going to do it by day. Be realistic with the amount of time it will take to complete the task. So how does this apply to cooking? Set out a day and time you will food shop, prep the meals and cook. This could be all in one day or you can break it down. But remember this is an appointment just like anything else!
This leads me to step #2…Planning! If you want to eat from home regularly you need to plan your meals out in advance. There is nothing worse than starving and having nothing prepared or for that matter even in the house! So you need to ask yourself, are you ok with eating the same thing 3 days in a row or do you need variety? Personally I could eat the same thing all week, but I know for many people this can get monotonous. If your one of those people, I suggest when cooking your dinner make enough to be able to bring to work the next day. It will save you so much time, not to mention money! Plus bonus!! You are eating something new every night, cooking is therapeutic and relaxing and its a great way to bond with someone you love!
Get good at cooking a few EASY meals. This goes back to what is difficult one shall not do! So save yourself a bunch of aggravation and memorize a few, easy, barely any ingredients, type of dish. I promise you, you don't need that many ingredients to make delicious food! I always have garlic, garlic-salt powder, lemon and parsley on hand. If you want to take it a step further basil makes everything from omelets to marinara sauce taste delicious and I am huge fan of crushed red pepper for a little spice. Roasted Chicken is one of my easiest go to dishes whether you put lemon, olives, rosemary, garlic or marinate it overnight in a orange and rosemary fusion the point is it is super versatile. Get creative, cooking it fun!
I hope these tips help you in your quest to up level your health, lower your weight and learn to be a super amazing chef! Leave your comments below and let me know how your cooking expedition goes!!


This week we're joined by our friends Joseph and Xavier who have been friends for 8 years. They live two very different lives, yet they seem to be the best of friends. How exactly does that work? Let's break the agreement.

Taking a Stand: The Feminist Majority Foundation
by Charity Truth Experts | Apr 26, 2018 | Feminism
In this age of turmoil, when women, people of color, people who have survived abuse, veterans, and a vast number of other people are downtrodden and ridiculed by leaders and the privileged, we need to stand up and say "no." The Feminist Majority Foundation provides opportunities for women to be heard.
When women are treated like possessions, children are treated like slaves, and people from other nations are rejected just because of their accent or the color of their skin, our nation needs to speak up. And that's what the Feminist Majority Foundation is doing.
Feminism is a movement that seeks equality for women and girls within a world that has historically been run by men.
Feminists, members of this movement, fight for equal pay, equal business opportunities, economic development, the right to vote in any nation of citizenship, and equal societal treatment of all women and girls.
In the 19th century and early 20th century, feminism fought for the equal rights of women to own land, vote, and have full custody rights of their children. The movement first began with the Australasian colonies of Britain, where women finally had had enough of the domineering attitudes and treatment by a patriarchal society.
As our world continues developing with hatred and violence toward women, and protection for the abusers, groups like the Feminist Majority Foundation are needed to continue the good work started by their sisters more than a century ago.
What is the Feminist Majority Foundation?
The Feminist Majority Foundation is a nonprofit organization with the primary objective of advancing non-violence, and women's equality, power, and economic development. This group was founded in 1987 by Eleanor Smeal, Peg Yorken, Judith Meuli, Katherine Spillar, and Toni Carobillo. These women have sought the equality of women in the workplace, medical realms, and every other avenue of life.
Some of the main focuses of the Feminist Majority Foundation programs have been for women's health and reproductive rights, and they have supported a number of organizations in their efforts in these areas.
National Clinic Access Project
Campaign for Afghan Women and Girls
Global Reproductive Rights Campaign
Rock for Choice
National Center for Women and Policing
Campaign for Women's Health
Choices Campus Leadership Program (College and University Women)
Emergency Contraception Initiative
Education Equity Program
Showing Your Support
There are a number of ways that you can show your support for this great cause.
One of the easiest ways to be a part of this great cause is improving your own knowledge on the topic. It's easy to say you're a feminist because you want equal rights, but it's something else to know the details and efforts being made by fellow feminists. Find materials like Ms. Magazine, a nonprofit magazine published by the Feminist Majority Foundation, or books by feminist authors. The more you know, the more you can keep the momentum going.
Display the feminist logo
It might seem minuscule, but wearing or publicly displaying the feminist logo can help move the cause forward. Anytime someone is willing to show their beliefs publicly, they can make a big difference. Your feminist logo may start conversations or help to unite others who also support the cause.
Tons of petitions are out there from the Feminist Majority Foundation and other groups like them. Take the time to go online and find some that specifically mean something to you, and sign them. Look for others that you may not necessarily feel as strongly about and sign them as well.
You can post links to the petitions on your social media platforms and encourage your friends and family members to support the cause that means so much to everyone's well-being.
Feminist Majority Foundation jobs
Of course, one of the most involved things you can do for the feminist movement is taking on a job with a group like the Feminist Majority Foundation. You can view their website for a listing of the current jobs and internships available with the Feminist Majority Foundation.
If you're near the D.C. area, you can also check out the newspaper for Lexington MA, where jobs for groups like Feminist Majority Foundation, the National Organization for Women, or the National Women's Law Center may list jobs or volunteer opportunities.
The Feminist Majority Foundation's Reputation
Charity Navigator rates the Feminist Majority Foundation with two out of four stars. They awarded the group an overall rating of 76.28 out of 100 overall. The feminist group also rated 85 points out of 100 for fiscal management and 70.00 points out of 100 for accountability and transparency.
The Feminist Majority Foundation's financial records
The Feminist Majority Foundation's most recent IRS Form 990 available is for 2016. We extracted the following financial data from the organization's most recent publicly available tax return for their fiscal year ending December 2016. This financial statement can give you a clearer picture of how they use their resources.
Percentage of donations spent on services
Total donations and grants: $3,908,642
Spent on services and grants: $4,930,781
Percentage of donations toward grants and services: 126.15 percent
Percentage of revenue spent on fundraising
Fundraising expenses: $141,798
Paid to professional fundraisers: $0.00
Percentage of total revenue spent on fundraising: 0.24 percent
Administrative and overhead costs
Overhead expenses: $553,868

Paid to officers/directors: $462,899
Highest paid officer/director: Executive Director $124,565
Percentage of total revenue spent on officers/directors Salaries: 8.01 percent
Even if you don't have the ability to take a job with the Feminist Majority Foundation, you do have a voice. When you hear something wrong, speak up against it. If you witness abuse against a fellow woman or girl, call the authorities and take a stand in court.
If you have personally experienced abuse, mistreatment for being female, or some kind of hate crime, find measures to protect yourself against your assailant and seek legal counsel.
Speak up against abusers.
Speak up against the hateful.
You can make a difference for the world. It only takes one voice to start a movement.

Former NYC Mayor Tapped to Lead Defense Innovation Board
WASHINGTON (Feb. 09, 2022) -- Mike Bloomberg, the three-time mayor of New York City, has been nominated by Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin III to chair the Defense Innovation Board, Pentagon Press Secretary John F. Kirby said.
"The secretary has nominated Mr. Michael Bloomberg to serve as the chair of the Defense Innovation Board to leverage his experience and strategic insights on innovation, business and public service," Kirby told reporters during a briefing today at the Pentagon. "His leadership will be critical to ensuring the department has access to the best and brightest minds in science, technology and innovation through the team of diverse experts that he will lead as chair of that board."
Established in 2016, the Defense Innovation Board provides Defense Department leadership with advice and recommendations on innovative ways to address departmental challenges with a focus on people and culture, technology and capabilities, and practices and operations.
Across the department, a variety of advisory boards, councils, panels and committees have historically provided insight and guidance on things such as security cooperation, diversity, science, engineering and medical topics.
In early 2021, Austin directed 40 of those groups to suspend their activities pending the results of "zero-based" reviews that would evaluate their missions.
In recent months, 36 of those groups have been directed to resume operations, including nine announced today by the Pentagon.
Groups announced today include the National Security Education Board; the National Security Agency Emerging Technologies Panel; the Advisory Board for the National Reconnaissance Office; the Army Education Advisory Committee; the Education for Seapower Advisory Board; the Board of Visitors for the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation; the Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program Scientific Advisory Board; the Board of Regents, Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences; and the Defense Innovation Board.
Kirby said positions on the other boards will be filled in the coming weeks.
"The department's boards and committees have been and will continue to be a valuable resource as we defend the nation, take care of our people, and succeed through teamwork," he said. "And I know that the secretary and all our department leadership look forward to working with these advisory boards going forward."

Dear (Representative name),
Invasive species are a threat to our natural heritage and the impacts on our economy and environment rival top conservation issues including climate change and habitat loss. Nearly 50% of endangered or threatened species are at risk due to invasive species. I urge you to do more to combat this threat by investing in prevention to protect our public lands and waters for future generations.
Methodology Overview
Wildlife Forever surveyed 12 professional biologists asking them to rank their top 20 most harmful Nonindigenous Aquatic Species (NAS) in the West from a list of 104 NAS provided by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). The Wildlife Forever "Battle of the Bads" report focuses on ten states West of the 100th Meridian that all have significant Bureau of Land Management (BLM) acreage. Survey responses from the biologists narrowed the 104 NAS down to 25 species. We then had the biologists do a second ranking from the distilled top 25 NAS. After tallying the points from the second round of surveys, a list of the 25 most harmful NAS was created for what Wildlife Forever calls the results from the "Battle of the Bads."
Each Top 25 species was given a "Harm Score" (HS) based on their rank, with the 1st place given a score of 25, 2nd place a score of 24, and so on. To estimate the severity of a Congressional District's NAS problem, Wildlife Forever calculated an "Infestation Score" for each District. The "Infestation Score" was calculated by summing up the "Harm Scores" of each species prevalent in that District, with the full HS of a species used if the species is prevalent to a 'major' extent and half the HS used if the species is prevalent to a 'minor' extent. The prevalence of each of the NAS species was determined using species prevalence maps from the Nonindigenous Aquatic Species Database by the USGS.

MATTE A Grade Blue Apatite 6mm Round 16"
Blue Apatite ranges in color from light teal to blue to bright blue to dark blue to green. It can be easily confused with other minerals due to its variety of colors and formations, and it's name is derived from the Greek "apate," which means to deceive. Blue apatite is metaphysically considered to be a Stone of Manifestation, promoting personal power and achievement of goals.

Auckland DHB gets funding to target efficiency
Auckland District Health Board is to be given a further $2.5 million to reduce waiting times for patients and increase the number of operations.
Health Minister Tony Ryall says the money will be targeted at systems that help the board run its daily theatre list.
The aim is to reduce waiting times and give patients more certainty about when they will have their surgery.
The funding will help the DHB continue its work in the past two years to improve its surgical services.
Mr Ryall says many patients are now assessed over the phone for ear, nose and throat surgeries, which has reduced the time outpatients have to spend in the waiting room.

After five months, it all changes
Just as our cruisers begin to feel comfortable, one misstep sends them scrambling for their PFDs
Five months without a clock and time still ticks loudly. Major changes: some take years, others … months, days, minutes.
My life: made up of milliseconds
It took me three years of Stanford to decide I wanted to be a mergers and acquisitions lawyer, 30 minutes of giving a campus tour to B-movie king Roger Corman to change my mind, and a 30-second collect call to lay the bombshell on my parents: "Forget Yale Law. I'm gonna work on 'Attack of the Crab Monsters, Part II!' "
It took 39 months between "Hi, I'm Angus" and "I do," three minutes for two lines to appear on an EPT test, and 52 hours of labor for Dashiell to arrive. There were nine months of discussions with Angus about sailing the eastern Caribbean, six weeks of a UCLA sailing class to think I could sail, one minute steering our 41-foot Beneteau to realize I could not, and four months of the trip before I finally unclenched my teeth. A month after that, and it finally fits like an old hat — or a sun visor, as the case may be.
1800s to the present
As we drop anchor for the night, I have a choice: Let Joshua Slocum guide me through the late 1800s with his classic "Sailing Alone Around The World," return to 1972 with an outdated edition of Don Street's bible Cruising Guide to the Lesser Antilles, or stay predictably in the present with Chris Doyle's Cruising Guides. Angus usually plans tomorrow's leg by reading Doyle, so I'm sailing in the past with Street and Slocum.
Blame it on my nighttime reading, but I have to wonder: The more things change, the more they stay the same? Maybe, but then again …
Pirates don't top the list of my worries. Not the case for poor Josh Slocum. Every night, before his nighttime reading, he methodically laid down carpet tacks — his method of keeping "savages" from boarding. Savages, Fuegians, pirates always on his mind.
In fact, we did have a pirate scare in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Baby Dash is safely
secured in his car seat. Ruggles, our 4-pound Maltese, lounges on a cushion, tied to her leash. Angus and I relax. Now confident with the boat, we let the Autohelm take this watch. We approach Wallilabou, a customs port. Suddenly, I jump up. "Angus!" I scream. "Gunfire!" Three tall ships blast cannons. And up high, swinging from the mast, is the pirate king, lord of them all. He laughs maniacally as a modern speedboat races out to us. Is the pirate king dispatching men to
dispatch us? Not really. But production assistants menacingly order us to vacate the premises immediately. As we retreat, I watch Johnny Depp himself making the Disney film sequel to "Pirates of the Caribbean." And I whisper — sorry, Angus — "Hey, Johnny boy, I'd clear the carpet tacks off for you any time." Not life-threatening but a boisterous greeting to remember.
I'll admit it; I'm jealous of ol' Slocum. He always had an impressive welcoming committee: Lord Hampton of New South Wales and King Malietoa of Samoa showing him their lands, Mrs. Robert Louis Stevenson in Apia bestowing him with her late husband's books. And so for months now, as I climb the mast to pull down the main, I optimistically look about. Moorings and Sunsail charter boats stare back. A century later, the seas have opened up for cruisers … and with that, anonymity.
I finally admit that Charles and Camilla won't be having us for cocktails. And just then, we glide into Lord Glenconner's Mustique. We quench our thirst at Basil's, the only public bar on the private island. Seated nearby, resident Joan Irving strikes up a conversation. Within minutes she offers to take us on a tour the following day on her mule — "The only way to see our island."
Sure enough, at 9 a.m. sharp she arrives. On the street I'm relieved to find not an animal but a go-
cart on steroids, her mule. We cruise past Hilfiger's, Jagger's and Bowie's homes. Joan introduces us into her friends' mansions. A book-publishing clan plays with Dash and Ruggles. Four hours of touring for no other reason than to welcome us.
And for culture, we find it in unlikely Carriacou, an island so authentic in every way that it feels West African. Angus and I drop anchor in Hillsborough rather than the more yachtie Tyrell Bay. We prefer the freighters and fishermen here. It adds to the charm. The local celebrity is Canute Caliste, who is in his 90s. He epitomizes his seafaring culture in his "naïve"-style paintings of whalers and mermaids. His artwork is sought after internationally and displayed in museums. The remaining pieces are seldom sold. We strike up a conversation with his daughter, Clamencia. The conversation quickly becomes friendly. Before we leave, she sells us three of her dad's paintings from her personal collection "to remember her island by."
Tobago Cays, the Grenadine's heralded treasure. Don Street's words ring in my ear: "Many years ago the Cays were deserted. Now you can expect to see other boats, but there are plenty of anchorages to go around." Three decades have changed even that. Boats everywhere. Locals zigzagging in tenders, hawking their wares. Once deserted? No more. Forget the welcoming committee.
As we struggle to find a place to anchor, we just want solitude. That accomplished, we jump overboard. All is forgiven. The number of boats above becomes nothing compared to the schools of fish below. We spend hours diving the coral. Now that it is a marine preserve, hopefully one can do the same three decades from now.
I chuckle that night as I read Josh's adventures. With Yankee ingenuity, he talks of his moneymaking schemes. Trading tallow fat, apparently quite the success. And a shark comes in handy for charging admission to view. Call him the P.T. Barnum of the seas.
But it certainly isn't money on my mind as I dive off Isle de Rhonde. I swim peacefully alone. Then, stripes just off to my side. And teeth. All at once I realize it's a tiger shark! I'm scared to death; he's not. Slowly, I back away. Forget admission prices. The closest tiger I want to see is on a cereal box.
Still, money has continued to talk over the centuries. After scouring the funky Grenadine isles of Bequia, Union, Petit St. Vincent and others, we do find bags we'd love to sell, made by local ladies using West Indies flour sacks and sail ties. We buy about a hundred and set up a Web site. The West Indies Bag Company — dba WeBe Bags — is born (www.webebags
.com). Like Slocum, we aim for fat of our own.
Grenada, our midway stop, the most southern latitude: 11 degrees, 58 minutes. Nowhere shows the effects of time like here. A Cuban aircraft and a Russian biplane rust away on the airstrip of the now-defunct Pearls Airport, a testament to 24 hours of fighting played out on this land, which had little to do with islanders. The owner of the ramshackle soda shack next door is, like many, outgoing. He tells me about his seven children in the States — all of whom went to Ivies: "Three to Harvard, three to Yale and one to Princeton." But when I ask him about the invasion, he quiets. "We really didn't want the Cubanos," he says, "or the Americans. We just wanted peace."
In 1972 Don Street heralded the beauty of Grenada's capital town and main harbor, St. George's. "Outstanding," he called it. Three decades later, he's still on the mark. It's an understatement to say the hillside, with its architecture dating to the 1700s, is picturesque. But then take closer notice. St. George's Anglican Church, built in 1825; the Catholic Cathedral, with its brightly painted interior; homes, offices, shops … all without roofs. Devastated by one night, Sept. 8, 2004. Hurricane Ivan wreaked havoc on an island considered "too south to be hit." The father of the brilliant progeny makes another pithy observation: "It wasn't Hurricane Ivan; it was Hurricane Rufus. Cause he roof us."
Our carefree sailing takes a new tone as we anchor in Prickly Bay. Surrounding us are monohulls and cats in various states of destruction. The following morning, a conveyor line forms. Dismasted boats wait to be repaired. A large crane resteps a mast and then prepares for the next. A sense of hope builds. It is fitting that two days later the Easter "Around the Island" Regatta would take place. The Grenadians are looking for rebirth, a chance to begin time again.
With the adventure being even better than imagined — and not nearly as scary as expected — I cockily suggest, "Hey, let's breeze down to Venezuela." We discuss the possibility, but we have time limits — the most important being returning home before hurricane season. Besides, we still have many islands to see on our way back. Even with these thoughts, though, it's with sadness that we point our bow north. It doesn't seem like five months since we started.
Heading north, there is one last Grenadine to visit: Mayreu. A small island, so we figure it to be a quiet layover before overnighting to Martinique. But Saline Bay, with its electric-generating plant atop the hill, is not what we have in mind. We read that the northern Salt Whistle Bay is spectacular. Easily motorsailing out from Saline, we notice the red buoy. Angus, at the helm, keeps it — correctly — to port. Still, it seems odd. I leaf through Doyle's Cruising Guide. "Keep to seaward of the buoy (currently red)." Seaward! A matter of seconds and it's too late. Dirty Diapers crunches and stops short. My heart stops. A second later, she lunges forward. The bow raises 5 feet in the air and stays there. Dash wails. Ruggles yelps. Angus rams the boat in reverse. Nothing. The boat lurches. Then settles on her port beam. Waves raise and lower her onto the reef. Angus races below, then reappears. In a quiet tone that scares me, he orders, "Tara, put everyone's life vest on."
Seconds … seeming like centuries … changing everything.
Tara McCann Beavers put aside a Hollywood career as Francis Ford Coppola's producing partner to cruise the Caribbean with her husband and infant son. She will be filing periodic dispatches from Dirty Diapers, their Beneteau 411.
An abandoned voyage but no regrets


Why is the Twilight series exponentially more popular than the more intriguing Interview with the Vampire? Anne Rice's Louis and Lestat witness history, carry around significant emotional baggage, and speak dialogue worthy of a screenwriter. The Twilight Saga vampires are wooden caricatures, repeat the 12th grade over and over again, and carry on some of the most stunted and underwhelming conversations ever filmed. Teenage vampires must be more accessible to today's occult audience than older vampires stuck in their 20s for the rest of their lives.
Breaking Dawn - Part 2 begins immediately where Part 1 ended. Bella (Kristen Stewart) wakes up from one of the most intense birthing scenes ever recorded a ruby red-lipped, red-eyed, pale vampire. She sees minute details football fields in front of her, sprints faster than a car, jumps to the tree tops, and lusts after warm blooded creatures, both human and animal. For her first kill, instead of taking out a poor, innocent doe she was tracking, Bella sinks her fangs into what is most likely an endangered mountain lion who was about to feast on the deer.
The spawn of the previously mentioned birth is the unfortunately named Renesmee (Mackenzie Foy). CGI effects make her look more like Gollum than the half-human, half-vampire she is. She's got nothing on Kirsten Dunst's Claudia in the vampire department. She is also saddled with Jacob the werewolf protector (Taylor Lautner) who puts off an extremely disturbing vibe that in the future he is going to become much more than Renesmee's bodyguard. In an awkward and forced anger scene, Bella kicks the crap out of Jacob for his 'imprinting' on her infant daughter as an amused Edward (Robert Pattinson) looks on. At least Jacob as a werewolf looks somewhat believable.
The special effects showing vampires running through the woods are noticeably off. When Bella and Edward are shown in close-up admiring one another while sprinting, they blatantly do not fit in with the passing background. It takes the audience right out of the movie experience. Another incongruent element is the advanced rate of Renesmee's development. She grows six inches every month or so which confuses Bella's poor father Charlie (Billy Burke). Charlie is written as the dumbest human being alive. Jacob needlessly disrobes in front of him to show him he is a werewolf and Bella tells him she is fine but cannot tell him anything else about herself, even why she looks different. They tell Charlie Resmenee is his adopted niece even though she looks exactly like her mother. Poor Charlie. These Twilight films never give him a chance to be more than a bumbling fool.
So will there finally be a pay-off? Twilight audiences have gone through five films now just waiting for something to happen. Through a misunderstanding involving Irina (Maggie Grace), a vampire cousin, the ancient vampire leaders known as the Volturi learn Edward and Bella had a child which runs afoul of one of the top three vampire rules. Aro (Michael Sheen) and Jane (Dakota Fanning) lead a robed and hooded clan to go and meet the Pacific Northwest clan on the snowy field of battle. Michael Sheen purposefully overacts; however, this works since anyone who is as old as he seems to be probably has a few cobwebs in the attic. At least he makes up for monosyllabic Jane who only gets to mumble the word 'pain' every now and again.
The Maggie Grace curse strikes again! No matter the material, if the casting director chooses Maggie Grace, your film is going to be the worse for it. She was the worst character on Lost, the weak link in theTaken series, and helped torpedo an already horrible film from earlier this year, Lockout. Of course she is involved in a Three's Company misunderstanding leading to a cascade of unnecessary stand-offs, world travel, and overall nuisance. At least she was the catalyst for the most interesting part of the film, the gathering and introduction of other vampires of the world. It seems globalization has affected blood-suckers as well. There is the British guy, the Irish family, the Transylvanians with corresponding atrocious accents, the Arab, and even a pair of Amazon warriors.
The pay-off is two armies on opposing sides of a large and open field in the dead of winter. Vampires are lucky they do not get cold because those scantily clad Amazon warriors would be in trouble. There is a mountain of internet chatter about a twist ending and I will not reveal what happens on this field, but it works. There are those who are angry and call it a cheap trick, but instead, it is a cleverly written piece which tries, but not does make up for the lazy misunderstanding which brought them all together in the first place.
The Twilight series is now over and while Breaking Dawn - Part 2 was not a good movie, it was far better than its three predecessors and matches the first installment which was not that bad either. If you are a teenager, you already saw this movie. If you are 20 or above, save yourself the two hours and go back and watch Interview with the Vampire again.

Na shledanou v pekle, přátelé! (slovensky Dovidenia v pekle, priatelia!, italsky Arrivederci all' inferno, amici!, anglicky See You in Hell, My Friends!) je koprodukční slovensko-italský film režiséra Juraje Jakubiska. Film zasažený "normalizací" měl pohnutý osud. Od verze, dokončené italským koproducentem, se autor v r. 1972 distancoval, po létech se v nových podmínkách k dávnému projektu vrátil, výrazně ho přepracoval, dotočil několik sekvencí, změnil dialogy.

Děj
Bizarní příběh o skupině divných lidí, kteří se na vesnickém sídle oddávají radovánkám, plný surrealistických symbolů, polemiky o Bohu a spravedlnosti. To vše se rozvíjí v retrospektivě: svět je postižen katastrofou, z které se má lidstvo zachránit v arše. Katastrofické vize, strach a zděšení z krvavé cesty člověka a lidské historie. Společenství lidí ve snaze uniknout před "červenou archou" totality hledá spásu v založení fiktivní rodiny. Krásna Rita a její společník Petras, spolu se starým Plukovníkem a ukradnutým dítětem, se snaží vytvořit společenství mimo reálný svět. Prsty politiky a její "spravedlivost" si je však najdou… V závěru filmu svitá naděje. Pádem zdi kolem "archy" se nejenom hrdinům filmu otevírá okolní svobodný svět.

Režisér o filmu
"Tento film patří do Guinnessovy knihy rekordů. Začal jsem ho točit během Pražského jara 1968, ale komunistická cenzura těsně před dokončením natáčení zrušila. Směl jsem ho dokončit až po 22 letech! Už v průběhu natáčení jsem stále více a více nabýval přesvědčení, že tento film bude pro cenzora nepřijatelný, proto jsem vsadil na estetiku vyprávění pomocí symbolů a jinotajů. Netušil jsem však, že o něm nebude rozhodovat obvyklý cenzor, ale politická moc. V době realizace se její kruh stahoval nejen kolem mne, ale i kolem celého československého umění. "Na shledanou v pekle, přátelé!" bylo posledním zvoláním pro kolegy i celou inteligenci, výkřikem zoufalce, jenž cítil, že svobodě na tomto světě je navždy odzvoněno. V dotočené části v roce 1990 tiše doufám, že lidstvo opojené radostí ze svobody je poučeno z této nelidské zkušenosti a bude mít delší paměť. Snad konečně má možnost být velkorysejší a pozornější vůči menším a slabším."

Sam Childers was a biker, a brawler, a drug dealer who sought redemption in Sudan, turning his bare-knuckle and bullet-slinging rage on warlords who were turning kids into child soldiers. Have a peek at this action-drama from director Marc Forster (Monster's Ball, Quantum of Solace), out Sept. 23.
Childers is one of those rare characters who, if he was purely fictional, nobody would buy this story for a second. But he's a real-life Rambo type, who still runs an orphanage/mission there — but he's no angel. Screenwriter Jason Keller describes Childers as "reckless," "wild-eyed," and "always looking for trouble." When Keller first met him with plans to adapt his story into a film, the lifelong tough-guy was characteristically hostile.
Hollywoodnews.com: Marc Forster's "Machine Gun Preacher" was a surprise inclusion on the list of films screening at the Toronto International Film Festival.
While Forster has directed hit indie and festival-worthy films in the past ("The Kite Runner," "Finding Neverland," "Monster's Ball"), the action-thriller about a converted drug-dealer didn't initially sound like TIFF material. But programmers must know something that we don't, so we're now heading into "Preacher" with an open mind and increased anticipation.
Gerard Butler, Michelle Monaghan, Kathy Baker, Madeline Carroll and Michael Shannon star in Forster's film, which tells the true story of Sam Childers (Butler), a one-time drug-dealing criminal who finds a new calling as the savior of hundreds of kidnapped and orphaned children.
Childers founded the Angels of East Africa rescue organization, which helped repair homes destroyed by civil war.

Q: Typeorm Query Builder filtering multiple columns with one value My aim is to hit api endpoint and only pass one query variable and try to filter out any of the columns based on single variable.
I have multiple users in database like:
{
  id: 1,
  email: 'test+1@test.com',
  username: 'test',
  phone_number: '+651231231',
  skillsets: 'Drawing, cooking',
  hobby: 'Sleeping',
},
{
  id: 2,
  email: 'test+2@test.com',
  username: 'test 2',
  phone_number: '+6512312311231',
  skillsets: 'Drawing, cooking',
  hobby: 'Drawing',
}

My function/Query
    let users = this.repo.createQueryBuilder('user');

    if (query && query !== '') {
      users = users
        .where('user.email like :email', { email: `%${query}%` })
        .orWhere('user.username like :username', {
          username: `%${query}%`,
        })
        .orWhere('user.phone_number like :phone_number', {
          phone_number: `%${query}%`,
        })
        .orWhere('user.skillsets like :skillsets', {
          phone_number: `%${query}%`,
        })
        .orWhere('user.hobby like :hobby', { hobby: `%${query}%` });
    }

    return users.getMany();

My api endpoint would be something like
/api/users?query=Sleeping

I can't filter by anything else other than email and I assumed is because of initial where but I am not entirely sure how to cater for this scenario.
I appreciate if anyone can point me to the right direction.

A: I was looking to implement something similar and I found the answer in another Stackoverflow Question
It is possible to use OR clause using the simple typeorm .find() options as described in TypeORM docs.
To query with OR operator you'll need to use an array of conditions instead of an object.
let users = await user.find({
    where: [
        { email: Like(%${query}%) },
        { skillsets: Like(%${query}%) },
        { username: Like(%${query}%) }
    ]
});

A: You can try something like this. Just add the other columns.
users = users
        .where('user.email like :query AND (user.username like :query OR user.phone_number like :query)', { query: `%${query}%` })

A: You can use setParameter function from the query builder, and use the value wherever you pass the key of the parameter.
So maybe you can improve your code like this:
const users = this.repo.createQueryBuilder('user');

    if (query) {
      users
        .where('user.email LIKE :query')
        .orWhere('user.username LIKE :query')
        .orWhere('user.phone_number LIKE :query')
        .orWhere('user.skillsets LIKE :query')
        .orWhere('user.hobby LIKE :query')

    }

return users.getMany();

Hope this helps.

Q: A multivariable calculus exercise in the weak formulation of the Navier Stokes Equations The following is an excerpt from Robinson's An introduction to the classical theory of the
Navier–Stokes equations.

Here (1.1):

Using integration by parts I can get the $(\nabla u,\nabla\varphi)$ term from the second term of (1.1). But I don't get $\int_0^T(u,\varphi_t)$ and $-(u_0,\varphi)$. Also, the signs in (1.8) are confusing. Would anyone help me to derive (1.8) from (1.1)?

A: It is because $\phi(0,x)$ is not necessarily zero, so
$$\int_0^T\int_\Omega u_t\phi=-\int_0^T\int_\Omega u\phi_t+\int_\Omega u_0\phi(0,x).$$

A: The sign is wrong in the pressure term.
The integration by parts in time gives
$$
\int_0^T (u_t,\varphi)=(u(T),\varphi(T))-(u(0),\varphi(0))-\int_0^T (u,\varphi_t)=
-(u(0),\varphi(0))-\int_0^T (u,\varphi_t).
$$
The correct formula should be
$$
\int_0^T[(u,\varphi_t)-(\nabla u,\nabla\varphi)-((\nabla\cdot u)u,\varphi)-(\nabla p,\varphi)]dt=-(u(0),\varphi(0))
$$
