Pharmacy is an important part of paramedical sciences. Pharmacy is the health profession that links the health sciences with the chemical sciences, and it is charged with ensuring the safe and effective use of medication. The development of Pharmacy education in Tamil Nadu is evident from the fact that the state has as many as 70 pharmacy colleges which are either approved by AICTE or by PCI or by both. The colleges offer courses such as D.Pharm (Diploma in Pharmacy), B.Pharm (Bachelor of Pharmacy) and M.Pharm (Master of Pharmacy) etc.

Thompson undergoes shoulder surgery, out 5-6 months
The 22-year-old will be sidelined for the remainder of the 2019-20 season

Share All sharing options for: Thompson undergoes shoulder surgery, out 5-6 months
Photo by Bill Wippert/NHLI via Getty Images
This afternoon, it was announced that Buffalo Sabres winger, Tage Thompson would miss the remainder of the season (5-6 months) as he recovers from shoulder surgery. In his first taste of NHL action this season, he skated for less than seven minutes before suffering what was then referred to as an "upper-body injury" against the Chicago Blackhawks on November 17.
The initial recovery window was reported to be 3-5 weeks, so this news came as a shock to many. Before his call-up, Thompson was playing quite well for the Rochester Amerks, posting 12 points in 16 games. As one of the key pieces coming back in the Ryan O'Reilly trade, this news is certainly disheartening in what was supposed to be a key development year for the 22-year-old.
After struggling at the NHL level for a majority of the 2018-19 campaign (12 points in 65 games), hope surrounding his prospects as an NHL contributor were reignited as he packed on some weight this offseason and experienced early success in the AHL. Hopefully his recovery is swift and without lingering effects. The Sabres are very thin at forward throughout the organization and his future success is an important piece of the puzzle.

Six Questions for Katie Winkler, Editor, Teach. Write.
Teach. Write. publishes flash fiction under 1,000 words, short fiction of 1,000 to 5,000 words, poetry up to 100 lines, and creative nonfiction to 2,000 words written by authors who are, or have been, a writing instructor at a college, university, public school, or through continuing education programs. The first edition premiered to great success on September 1, 2017. Submissions for the Spring/Summer 2018 edition open on October 1, 2017, and close on March 1, 2018. Learn more here.
Katie Winkler: I have taught English composition at the high school and college levels for almost 30 years and have been actively pursuing publication for over 20. During that time, I have noticed that as I improved and began having my work accepted, that my teaching began to be positively affected. My understanding of the revision and editing process has improved, but even more importantly, as the rejections have rolled in, I have gained empathy with my students that I didn't have before. Also, experiencing the joy of acceptance has inspired me as a teacher and a writer so much that I wanted to provide a venue for my fellow writing teachers to feel the same.
KW: The top three things I look for are craftsmanship, because it is one of the main things writing teachers are trying to teach; authenticity, because gimmicky writing or writing simply to be published often leads to a shallow piece; and love for language, because there is nothing more enjoyable for me to read than someone who is head over heels for the marvelous form of communication that is English. Other languages have their charms, especially German, my second language, but it is my native tongue that still makes my heart go flippity-flop.
KW: Poor craftsmanship. How can I publish a poorly crafted piece in a journal for teachers of writing? I mean much more than grammar and mechanics. Occasional errors will not necessarily cause me to reject a piece. Weak sentence structure, poor word choice, lack of organization, a pattern of errors, or a general disregard for submission guidelines -- these types of things show a lack of respect for the craft, and for me as an editor, and are likely to prompt a rejection letter.
SQF: What magazines/zines do you read on a "regular" basis?
KW: New Yorker, Glimmer Train, Huffpost, The Flash Fiction Press, The Oxford American, The Pedestal, Bold Life (local magazine)
SQF: If Teach. Write. had a theme song, what would it be and why?
KW: "School's Out for Summer" by Alice Cooper because summer is when I do most of my writing and marketing. I am too busy working with other people's writing during the school year to have much time for my own.
KW: How do you feel about your writers? I have only published one edition of my journal so far, but the quality of submissions and the graciousness of the writers accepted for publication have awed and humbled me. I feel that my contributors and I have formed some sort of special bond similar to a cast and crew working together to produce a play. I didn't expect this feeling, but I like it.
Thank you, Katie. We all appreciate you taking time from your busy schedule to participate in this project.

When we are programming in .Net.We come across the scenario (i.e)we need to store the selected items in a grid .Some times the selected items are more for saving the data into database.It become a tedious way of storing the data in database.Because looping the selected items and inserting the data row by row in database will lead to stuck or unresponsive of the application for the end user.for this Scenario i had a better way of handling the things.This is the one I want to discuss in this Article.
Generally this type of Scenarios will be there in Medical Domain Projects.Where the patient information or blood or Urine samples collected in a test lab and other activities that are viewed and selected in a grid by the User and save it into database.If the programmer writes a code by looping those selected items in a grid and inserting it into the remote database. Assume that if the grid has 100 or 1000 selected items in a grid.It will take really long time to save the selected items of the grid.And some times the Sql-server connection will break down and that leads to unresponsive of the application will be more on cards.So in order to save such data in database the sql-server with the combination of .net Plays a vital role in handling these things .
There are two ways to handle this issue..
Ex: I am creating an address for a table in which it contains following fields and datatypes.
So with the datatable the grid was bound and we need to save into database for the checked items in a grid.
and we can specify the table owner for it(is necessary).
Now loop the selected items in the grid where check boxes are selected or datagrid items.
What are the Advantages of using this type of code ?
4)The important one is sqlbulkmappings. If we use all the columns in a shown grid to insert the data that exactly matches to the database columns than there is no need of Bulkcopymappins.
Now the most complicated task is i want to insert the data which is in the address table to patient information table.
if found add to the bulk copy mappings either by thier column name Mappings or Column Ordinal Positions.
Need not manually search each column Dynamically we can add it.
open a connection through oledb fill the data in to the datatable using dataadapter rest of the things are similar like grid items saving.

Home Obituaries Emma MacKay Hall
Emma MacKay Hall
Emma MacKay Hall died tragically on the evening of December 19, 2020, at the young age of 22.
Emma was the very definition of an Island girl. She loved her parents, sisters, dogs, close circle of friends, and the place they all called home. She was kind, loving, generous to a fault, and the life of the party; her smile and laugh lit up every room she entered. She was hardworking, passionate, sensitive, and strong, but most of all a devoted, loyal friend taken far too soon. All those that were fortunate enough to be touched by Emma's larger than life presence will miss her dearly, every day.
Emma was born in Oak Bluffs at the Martha's Vineyard Hospital on November 25, 1998, and attended the MVH preschool, Garden Gate, Oak Bluffs School, and MVRHS, graduating in June of 2017 with honors. The highlight of her high school career was her junior trip abroad with her beloved Ms. Weintraub to Ireland; Emma always joked that she was returning to "her motherland."
Emma's college plans took a non-traditional route, but through her journey, she discovered her true passion and was working on her Early Education/Special Education degree at Lesley University and hoped to incorporate her love of dogs and art as therapeutic tools in her classroom. Emma discovered her love of early education during a gap year while working at Project Headway and formed ties with women she worked alongside, whom she considered her mentors: Emily Walker, Becki Fontaine, and Grace Robinson.
Emma was a beloved nanny to many families, often preferring to work with babies and infants but had one exception, caring for her godmother, Dawn Warner's son, Augie, whom she loved enormously and cherished every moment of their silliness together.
In her downtime, Emma loved to be at the beach with her mom and sisters. She was a fish out of water and lovingly referred to as "seal pup" by her family, often staying in the water hours on end, egging folks on to swim out to the sand bar with her. Wherever Emma went, music was blaring. She had a passion for attending concerts with her sisters and friends and sharing her favorite artists with anyone who would listen.
Emma had many gifts that she was quick to share with others. She was a skilled baker, often out and about dropping off treats for friends to enjoy. Her love of crafting and making meant her family and friends were showered with homemade gifts, whether there was something to celebrate or not.
While in elementary school, Emma began volunteering at the annual Martha's Vineyard Agricultural Society's Livestock Show and Fair with her sister Charlotte and her mother, a tradition that carried on for 10 years until her high school graduation. Giving thousands of hours of her time, Emma spent most of her summer months behind the scenes doing whatever was asked of her, forming strong bonds with another group of women she considered mentors and referred to them as "The Fair Ladies." Her favorite part of those summers was working with Charlotte in livestock judging, where she would gleefully follow Steve, the state judge, with her basket of ribbons.
Our world will never quite be the same, but to keep her spirit alive, hold your friends and family a little tighter, do something special for someone, and donate to your favorite local organization, just because that is what our Emma would do.
Emma is survived by her parents, Peter and Helen Hall, sisters Sarah Hall Mercaldo (and her husband Kyle) and Charlotte L. Hall, her beloved dogs, Winnie, Chester and Daisy, many uncles, aunts, and cousins, her grandmother Patricia L. Holland, and a close circle of friends that she considered family. Emma's much-beloved grandmother for whom she was named, Shirley MacKay Hall, predeceased her on July 19, 2020.
Due to COVID-19 restrictions, a celebration of Emma's life will take place at a later date. Our family has established a scholarship through the Martha's Vineyard Community Foundation in Emma's honor and plan to establish a baking award at the Ag Fair along with scholarship funds for children's art at Featherstone. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to one of the three referenced in Emma's name.
The family wants to thank the members of our remarkable community. These random acts of kindness that we find ourselves on the receiving end of are a wonderful reminder of how our Emma lived her life. To us, her family, COVID was a gift of time spent together, laughing, baking, reminiscing, building Legos, and binge-watching series and movies. It is this gift of time together that we will forever cherish.
JenniferJames says:
Such a beautiful life well lived. May her memories fill you with a sense of love as they pass through your mind in the days ahead.
Elaine Cawley Weintraub says:
My heart is broken dear Emma. Ar dheis De go raibh a anum from the "Motherland" (May her soul sit at the right hand of God.
Mary Beth McNamara says:
Emma filled the world around her with so much love. May her memories wrap around you like her hugs!
Mary Beth
Shelley Wilbur says:
Two families ruined… for uncontrollable urge to answer a text message.
Tamara Chin says:
The young man's life will never be the same either. I am sure he wishes he had just stayed home that night. We have to pray for all the families and even through difficult times try our hardest to find the love in our hearts. We are a bigger community than that. I think Emma's family would want us to live in her beautiful light.
Pia Gundersen says:
Yes, 3 families ruined. Tragic on many levels.
Vera Cacique says:
May God receive her in his arms and comfort the hearts of family members.🙏
Kathleen Forsythe says:
I was lucky and privileged to meet beautiful Emma at Sarah's bridal shower and wedding. No words can describe the anguish we feel over this devastating loss. Sending our love and deepest condolences to Sarah and all her family, and all who knew and loved Emma. May your memories of her soothe you at this difficult time.
Laury Binney says:
I knew Emma as her school principal at Oak Bluffs, and among her many personal characteristics was her habitual smile that she displayed daily and consistently to most everyone. Because her mom Helen worked in the office with me, I would get to see and chat with her and her sister frequently, and her attentive and friendly demeanor would always lighten my spirit. She had that special quality of brightening the moment. Though it might sound like a cliche', she was truly beautiful, inside and out.
My heart goes out to her parents Peter & Helen, and sisters Sarah & Charlotte for their loss. As Vineyarders, we understand that their pain is also our pain, and that our support in this time of sadness is beyond question.
Laury Binney
T E Hopkins says:
No words, my heart and soul are heavy.
aimee allen says:
I am so sorry to hear of your loss of Emma. She will be an angel. I never knew Emma but I can see she is cherished. I visit the Island every year in the summer. Please know that my prayers are with you.
Helen Benham says:
Reading about this tragic accident and seeing her angelic smiling face
brings tears and compassion for her family. I can't even imagine the searing pain they must feel losing their beautiful, generous, talented
daughter and sister. My heart is with you.
Michele Mercaldo says:
I am so saddened to hear of your loss.
My heart goes out to your family. Hope for support and strength to get you through this difficult time.
Ellen Creighton says:
I am so sorry for your immense loss. May your know that your grief is shared by many. I hope your memories are bringing in lightness during this darkness. We are all simply walking each other home…I am so sorry your journey with Emma was not longer. With love and sympathy.
Alison Smith says:
My heart is so heavy for you and your family, Sarah. Reading this lovely tribute was such an honor. Our family sends you & yours our deepest condolences & know that you all will be in our thoughts & prayers. Alison, Tom & Family. xo
Niki Patton says:
I did not know Emma Hall but like many in our Island community my tears fell and my heart broke when I heard about this accident. I thank the writer for this beautiful homage to her too short life so that her nephews and nieces may learn of their wonderful aunt for all time to come. It is obvious she gave much joy to many people –may that legacy live on.
Michelle Stout says:
May peace be with you Helen and family. I'm sending my heartfelt sympathy. Rest In Peace, Emma❤

India pips North America to become the biggest smartwatch market • TechCrunch
November 30, 2022 - by t3i1m - Leave a Comment
India surpassed North America to take the top global spot in the smartwatch market in the quarter that ended in September, according to a report from market research player Counterpoint. The festival sales and proliferation of affordable smartwatches helped grew the local market by 171% year-on-year.
The affordable smartwatch models getting bigger displays and adding features such as Bluetooth calling were key selling factors in India during the festival sales, Hong Kong-headquartered Counterpoint said.
"Indian brands expanding their product portfolios at affordable price points and emphasis on local manufacturing also contributed to the growth," Counterpoint analyst Anshika Jain said in a statement.
"Bluetooth-calling emerged as an important feature, contributing a 58% share in total shipments, the highest ever share to date. Consumers are also preferring bigger display sizes, which is evident from the fact that over half of the total shipments in Q3 came from the 1.5"-1.69" display size."
North America, which was the top market from Q4 2020 to Q2 2022, grew 21% year-on-year while China and Europe had a negative growth.
India's growth meant that the country's top brand Noise captured third place on overall shipment charts — thanks to a 218% year-on-year growth— only lagging Apple and Samsung.
The smartwatchmaker told TechCrunch that it aims to scale its local production from 50% to 80% by the end of the year. Local rival Fire-Boltt, which was only a percentage behind Noise in the market share, grabbed the fourth place in global rankings.
Apple grew 48% due to stellar sales of the new Apple Watch 8 series, which accounted for 56% of overall sales. Samsung grew 6% year-on-year despite registering a 62% shipping increase from the previous quarter.
Counterpoint report segregates smartwatches into two categories: High-level operating system smartwatches (HLOS), which include devices from companies like Apple, Samsung, Huawei, Garmin, and Amazfit; and what it calls "basic" smartwatches that feature a lighter operating system and are more affordable. Noise, Fire-Bollt, and BoAT operate in the latter category.
The research shop said that the HLOS segment grew 23%, whereas basic smartwatches grew by more than a double — resulting in commanding a 35% of the market share. Apple currently dominates the HLOS market with about 50% market share whereas Samsung sits second in the chart.

"This remarkable increase in basic smartwatch shipments shows us that the market base is rapidly expanding toward more accessible segments amid aggressive drives by the supply side. But still, in terms of revenue, the HLOS smartwatch overwhelms the basic smartwatch with a market size of almost 10 times due to its high average selling price (ASP)," Research Analyst Woojin Son said in a statement.
Earlier this month, analyst firm IDC published a report on India's wearable market, noting that the smartwatch segment grew by 178% with more than 12 million units shipped in the quarter ending September. The report said that this growth could also be attributed to falling smartwatch prices in the region as the average selling price (ASP) dropped from $60 to $41.9 in a year. IDC says that the ASP of basic smartwatches is $27.5 as compared to the $330 ASP of advanced smartwatches. This is an indicator that Indian consumers are likely to go for cheaper alternatives than the Apple Watch or the Samsung Galaxy Watch.
All the India-based smartwatch manufacturers have committed to rapidly increasing their local manufacturing output in the coming months to increase the production rate. This could help them bring down the device prices further and increase shipments to catch up with Samsung and Apple in unit shipments.

'I think that everyone should have the chance to be equally miserable,' rapper told The New York Times Magazine.
In a new interview with The New York Times Magazine, [artist id="502642"]Eminem[/artist] declares that his "overall look on things is a lot more mature than it used to be," a statement that apparently extends to his views on gay marriage.
At one point during the piece — which will appear in the Sunday, June 20, issue of the mag — Em is asked by the Times' Deborah Solomon if he'd support a gay marriage bill in his home state of Michigan. Somewhat surprisingly, he said yes ... in his own, uniquely acerbic way, of course.
"I think if two people love each other, then what the hell?" Em answered. "I think that everyone should have the chance to be equally miserable, if they want."
Throughout his career, Eminem has drawn the ire of gay rights groups, who called lyrics on his Marshall Mathers LP "homophobic and hateful" and protested his performance — and nominations — at the Grammy Awards in 2001. And late last year, he made headlines when "Elevator," from his Relapse: Refill album, found him calling Clay Aiken and Adam Lambert "f----ts."
Elsewhere in the Times interview, Eminem says that his newfound maturity had a lot to do with getting sober and, for the first time in his career, putting his maniacal Slim Shady persona on the shelf for his upcoming Recovery album.
"Shady still exists. But I don't think the subjects on this record call for, you know, bringing the chainsaws and axes out and murder[ing] everyone," he says. "There was so much stuff like that off the last record that I felt like I was starting to run it into the ground. I think consciously I went in a different direction with this record."


The latest television commercial released by U.S. Rep. John Katko's campaign seeks to emphasize his work on water quality issues affecting central New York.
The 30-second ad released Saturday is airing on Syracuse-area broadcast and cable TV stations. The commercial, titled "What I'm Focused On," is narrated by Katko, R-Camillus, and he makes multiple on-camera appearances.
"Dangerous toxins have threatened our freshwater lakes," he says in the ad. "Our lakes aren't just treasures because of their beauty. They provide our drinking water. We bathe in it, and make baby formula with it. Our children and families rely on it."
Katko continues, "Working as a moderate in a hyperpartisan Congress can be frustrating. But finding solutions to local challenges like water quality is why I continue this fight."
