50% of Seniors Are Incontinent - US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
It used to be a common statistic that 1 in 3 elderly people experienced in continence. But the US Centers for Disease Control released a study that shows it's far worse than thought.
"We found that half the population experienced urinary leakage or accidental bowel leakage, and about 25 percent had moderate, severe or very severe urinary leakage. And about 8 percent had moderate, severe or very severe bowel leakage," said lead researcher Yelena Gorina, a statistician at the U.S. Centres for Disease Control and Prevention's National Centre for Health Statistics.
Women twice as likely to suffer from bladder incontinence.
About 50 percent of women and 25 percent of men said they suffered from bladder incontinence. White women were almost twice as likely to have bladder incontinence compared with black women, the researchers noted.
For people getting home health care, there was no significant difference in rates of incontinence by age, race and education. No matter where a patient lived, 45 percent of those getting home health care reported having difficulty with bladder and/or bowel control.
Women getting home health care were 1.7 times more likely to have bladder incontinence compared with men, the investigators found.
The CDC notes that there is a significant cost linked with incontinence. For example, in 2010, the average cost for bowel incontinence was estimated at $4,100 per person.

Irving Kahn RIP
By wescobrk,
wescobrk
He died yesterday.
109 years young.
Irving Kahn was born in Manhattan on December 19 1905, the son of Russian immigrants. After school in the Bronx, Kahn enrolled at City College but dropped out after two years to support his parents, taking a job as a "runner", or trading assistant, on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange.
He became friends with Benjamin Graham, later the author of The Intelligent Investor, the bible of value investing. They would ride the subway together in the evenings to Columbia University where Kahn worked — often for free — as his mentor's assistant. Hanging around campus was also a way to spend time with Ruth Perl, a psychology student, whom he married in 1931.
Kahn made his first trade in June 1929, borrowing from his brother-in-law to bet on a fall in the price of shares in the high-flying Magma Copper. When the market crashed just months later, he doubled his money.
In 1938 he borrowed again to buy his first house, in the Belle Harbor district of Queens, after banks — still piled high with foreclosures — denied him a mortgage. This time the source was uncle Harry, whose business had built the foundations for the Chrysler Building.
For the next few decades he bounced around brokerages, doing well through "time-arb" strategies, exploiting pricing differences between the same stocks traded in New York and London, and later trying something similar with companies undergoing mergers. In 1978 he struck out on his own, employing Thomas and his brother Alan to pursue the Graham goal of conservative, research-driven stock picking. (Kahn gave Thomas the middle name Graham — just as Warren Buffett, another disciple, did for his second son.)
In the month of Kahn's 100th birthday he rang the opening bell at the NYSE and was feted at a party at the elite Harmonie Club, attended by mayor Michael Bloomberg.
I think he passed a week and a half ago. RIP Irving.

The Kottamia Center of Scientific Excellence in Astronomy and Space Sciences is located at Kottamia Astronomical Observatory (KAO). The Kottamia Observatory was established 1964, North East of Eastern desert , 80 Km from Helwan, with height 476 meter (above sea level).
The Geographical coordinates of the Center are Latitude 29o 55' 48'' N. and Longitude 31o 49' 30'' E. The observatory housed a 74 inch telescope which has been upgraded with its accessories since 1995.
This telescope is the largest in the middle East and North Africa, and it is automatically controlled. It is supplied by video system camera to trace the site within and outside the dome. Kottamia Observatory having at least 200 clear nights/year shared in many international astronomical projects and enjoyed a world reputation.
Scientific Goals of the Center
Developing the observatory existing capabilities and introduce modern research branches in astronomy and space science aiming for more international competition in these research areas.
Pushing Kottamia observatory to a higher rank between the international modern observatories and strengthen the bilateral cooperation between Kottamia observatory and other international observatories which will be reflected on the level of the researches outcome.
Establishing a center for observational data analysis and interpretation in different wave bands of the electromagnetic radiation in particular space satellites observatories. This center will complete the optical telescopes data which is limited into narrow range of wave lengths (about 290—1000 nm) even after increasing the sensitivity of the photographic techniques.
Establishing a center for detection of Extrasolar planets. The observational techniques to detect evidence of other planetary systems are developed sufficiently to offer a promising search now.
Establishing a training center for the Arabian and African young Astronomers -graduate and undergraduate students-. This center will be a leader in the Arabic and African countries by virtue of its qualified staff and his past successful experience in this trend.
Establishing Virtual Observatory, which is an international project to collect space astronomical data, organize them and develop the tools that led astronomers to access these huge amount of information.
OBJECTIVES OF THE OPTICAL ASTRONOMY
The Study of variable stars and Binary systems which are already one of the programs in Kottamia Observatory, will be continued.
Modeling of stellar atmospheres.
Using the space satellites data in different wave bands from radio to gamma ray region in treating, analyzing and interpreting the previously observed objects in the optical region will extend our informative view in the whole electromagnetic spectrum according to the available satellite data in the different wave bands. This in turn will help in strengthen the scientific discussions and comparative analysis about the objects studied.
OBJECTIVES OF THE VIRTUAL OBSERVATORY UNIT
The (VO) is an International project to collect data, organize and develop tools that let astronomers accesses this huge amount of information. VO unit will collects, analyzes and interprets the available data in different wave bands and at different resolutions involving highly specialized instruments and techniques.
Collecting space satellites and ships very huge, offered data, and facilitating the necessary international Coordination and collaboration for the development and deployment of the tools, systems and organizational structures necessary to enable the international utilization of astronomical archives as an integrated and interoperating virtual observatory.
Playing a very important role in teaching astronomy in primary and secondary schools and in general for public.
sharing in the training of young astronomers using real astronomical data.
What is the VO?
Data about the universe obtained by ground based telescopes and various observational instruments mounted on satellites is sorted as digital data in computers around the world.
This data collectively represent a virtual universe that can be observed via computer networks. An observatory for observing virtual universe is called virtual observatory (VO).
In other words, virtual observatory is a collection of interoperating data archives and software tools which utilize the internet to form a scientific research environment which astronomical research program can be conducted.
Why do astronomers need the VO?
As astronomers build more telescopes, the amount of data they collect increases exponentially. Astronomers are carefully studying each piece of data they collect, but data are most useful when studied along with other, related data. Today, so much data is being collected that astronomers cannot see or understand everyone else's data as well as their own. The VO will let astronomers easily search for data, from all instruments at all wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum, that will help them understand the universe.
What new discoveries will come from the VO?
As it is well known a huge amount of data from all wavelengths from radio to gamma rays are stored on the vo. Comparing these separate data sets, will lead to more complete understanding of the universe. Carrying out multi wave researches will help astronomers understand the distribution of stars in our galaxy, how and why stars and galaxies change with time. Search tools which will offer, astronomers can easily discover the most unusual celestial objects through this huge amount of data. Public outreach and education: Astronomy is the science in which the public is very much interested. EVO will provide the possibility of education for students and educators in addition to general interested information for the general public. EVO will include web based science projects from basic to advanced levels. The method differs from the traditional way. High-school students, teachers or interested amateurs can use the same scientists. During the studies they could feel how real research works and they could experience and learn both scientific and computer methods.
OBJECTIVES OF SPACE DATA ANALYSIS UNIT
Studying of magnetic cataclysmic variables (CVs)
●	CVs are short period binaries, in which a late type main sequence star transforms mass into magnetized white dwarf. This process is called accretion. It is observed in many different types of objects in the universe, such as young stellar objects, compact binary stars and active galactic nuclei. In these systems the accretion luminosity results from conversion of gravitational energy produced by nuclear fusion process in the core of the normal stars.
●	Magnetic CVs are ideal plasma laboratories in which magneto-hydro dynamical problems and radiation process of the matter under extreme conditions (temp of about , field strength of ) can be studied in details.
The analysis of X-ray data is divided into four package:
a.	Data presentation.
b.	Spatial analysis.
c.	Timing analysis.
d.	Spectral analysis.
OBJECTIVES OF TRAINING UNIT
Training Egyptian, Middle East, Arab and African young astronomers, graduated and undergraduate students. By attending programs of lectures in different fields of astronomy divided into three stages, elementary, advanced and professional in addition to practical training on small telescopes and 74 inch telescope with advance sensors and techniques.
Promotion of young researchers by attending a training program in astronomical observations using more advanced techniques and dealing with software packages of space data analysis, modeling and simulation.
Strengthen the astronomical awareness of the public.

a- Why 2015 is the International Year of the light and light technologies?
It was not chance to choose 2015 to be the International Year of Light, In the sixty-eighth session of the General Assembly of the United Nations, held in 2013, acknowledged that 2015 is the International Year of the light, on the recognition of previous decisions were made in 1998 and 2006.
It is worth mentioning that the International Year of the light of the encounter with a group of events that played an important role in the history of light and these are dating back to 1000 and 200, 150, 100 and 50 years ago. These major scientific anniversaries that will be celebrated during IYL 2015 are:
1.	Anniversary of the passage of 1,000 years to spread the great works of Ibn al-Haytham on optics during the high-level of creativity and innovation in 1015.
2.	The expiration of 200 years, since the theory of Jean Augustine Vrinal (1815) to describe the light as a wave.
3.	Crossing about 150 years, when James Clerk Maxwell's theory appeared in (1865) to describe light as an electromagnetic.
4.	The passage of 100 years since the born of the general relativity theory by the great scientist Albert Einstein (1915), to confirm the central importance of light in both the space and time mode and of the embedding of light in cosmology through general relativity.
5.	Finally, the passage of 50 years on the discovery of Arno Allan Penzias and Robert Wilson the microwave background radiation in 1965, which is an echo of the origin of the universe, which enables us to "Map" universe as it had appeared after the Big Bang (Big Bang), who won by 13.7 billion years. And also to celebrate passing of 50 years Charles Kao's achievements concerning the transmission of light in fibers for optical communication.
b- What are the goals of the International Year of the light?
The optics technology in the recent era has revolutionized the various communities field and domains through its applications in the fields of medicine, communications, entertainment and culture. The light-based industries became a major economic engine. In the absence of existing technologies on the light there are no solar panels and no lighting through bilateral light emitting LED, there is no computer hardware or mobile screens, no cameras or projectors, or magnetic resonance imaging, or machines to x-rays and many other applications.
For this reason The United Nations has approved the following objectives, for their achievement at the global level:
1.	Avoid light pollution and energy conservation.
2.	Strengthening the role of women and their role in the effective appreciation of science.
3.	Support the role of technological development for the use of light applied in our daily life.
4.	Dissemination of scientific culture among school and university students and to support the sustainable development of communities and socials.
c- Where we are from light years?
Many countries all over the world have been participating in the year of light, and we had the privilege of participating. The International Astronomical Union decides (acknowledged), that there would be an external contact point at National Institute of Astronomy and Geophysics Research. Prof. Dr. Abd El Fady B. Morcos, represents this point, his contacts (email: fadymorcos@nriag.sci.eg, fadymorcos@hotmail.com and abmorcos@yahoo.com
or mobile no. +201223662454). There is also another contact point at National Institute of Laser to represents Egypt in the African Laser Centre (ALC) and representative of this point Prof. Dr. Mohamed Abdel-Harith (email mharithm@niles.edu.eg).

Evolution of mouse T-box genes by tandem duplication and cluster dispersion
Sergei I. Agulnik, Nancy Garvey, Sarah Hancock, Ilya Ruvinsky, Deborah L. Chapman, Irina Agulnik, Roni Bollag, Virginia Papaioannou, Lee M. Silver
The T-box genes comprise an ancient family of putative transcription factors conserved across species as divergent as Mus musculus and Caenorhabditis elegans. All T-box gene products are characterized by a novel 174-186-amino acid DNA binding domain called the T-box that was first discovered in the polypeptide products of the mouse T locus and the Drosophila melanogaster optomotor-blind gene. Earlier studies allowed the identification of five mouse T-box genes, T, Tbx1-3, and Tbr1, that all map to different chromosomal locations and are expressed in unique temporal and spatial patterns during embryogenesis. Here, we report the discovery of three new members of the mouse T-box gene family, names Tbx4, Tbx5, and Tbx6. Two of these newly discovered genes, Tbx4 and Tbx5, were found to be tightly linked to previously identified T-box genes. Combined results from phylogenetic, linkage, and physical mapping studies provide a picture for the evolution of a T-box subfamily by unequal crossing over to form a two-gene cluster that was duplicated and dispersed to two chromosomal locations. This analysis suggests that Tbx4 and Tbx5 are cognate genes that diverged apart from a common ancestral gene during early vertebrate evolution.
Dive into the research topics of 'Evolution of mouse T-box genes by tandem duplication and cluster dispersion'. Together they form a unique fingerprint.

The project addresses the design principles and performs finite element analysis (FEA) of vibration fixtures used for testing of space payloads at MIT Lincoln Laboratory. A review of standards that govern vibration testing of space and general payloads is presented. A set of principles and a tutorial for the design of vibration test fixtures is presented. The validation of the design principles is achieved through FEA of a vibration test fixture that involves a structure with panels, rails and support blocks. The FEA code PATRAN/NASTRAN is used and analysis of the three-dimensional computational results leads to design modifications that involve an added third panel. The redesigned fixture has increased stiffness, as well as reduced stress and displacement of its rails.

Jon Snow 'in conversation' with mothers2mothers
Jon Snow in conversation with Emma France
Last night, mothers2mothers (m2m) held a cultivation event generously hosted by global law firm, Allen & Overy. Familiar and new faces alike enjoyed networking atop the rooftop terrace overlooking the City of London. We were delighted to hear journalist and broadcaster Jon Snow in conversation with m2m European Director, Emma France.
The pair discussed poignant issues surrounding HIV/AIDS, how far we have come, and how much more work needs to be done. Jon opened by asking Emma, "But isn't HIV done? Why are we still talking about it?" Emma responded, "Global HIV prevalence reached 36.7 million in 2015. In that period there were 670,000 new HIV infections among young people of reproductive age. We need to reach these young men and women and we need to ensure their babies are born free from HIV. We also need to reach the 7,500 adolescents infected every week in sub-Saharan Africa"
Jon Snow speaking with m2m U.K. Trustees Carl Stewart and Stephanie Power
Talking together about m2m's work eliminating the transmission of HIV from a mother to her baby, Jon said, "I share your optimism. It's going to take time and it's going to take money, but we can create a generation free from HIV."
Jon began his career in the voluntary sector and spoke to Emma about her move in the opposite direction, from the corporate world into the charity sector. Asking her what she has taken from her experience at a global law firm, she replied, "how to never accept no as an answer," much to the amusement of a room who knows Emma well enough to know that is very true. Emma spoke of how she applied the ability to move into emerging markets to chase every opportunity and look for opportunity in everything you do and see.
Jon Snow taking questions from the audience
Speaking of the crossover between the corporate and third sector, discussion turned to m2m's nomination for Deutsche Bank Charity of the Year 2018, which will be decided by staff votes. Jon told the evening's guests, "Deutsche Bank funding is phenomenal. You can do something extremely imaginative and generous with a funder like Deutsche Bank."
Moving into conversation around community and current affairs, Jon took questions from the audience. Having just come from hosting a live Channel 4 debate at the site of the Grenfell Tower fire, the discussion in the room fell to the fact that the community response had been so strong and cohesive. One audience member asked what was needed in these climatic times, whereby Jon spoke of the need for changemakers, community, and above all, optimism. This of course resonated with the very premise of m2m – changemakers who are mothers who can create generational health in every community. Special thanks to our champions at Allen & Overy, Paul Flanagan, and Kate Cavelle, and Deutsche Bank's Rafael Gil-Alberti.

Williams Ready For A Fresh Start In 2018
by Ben | Mar 22, 2018 | F1 | 0 comments
Williams Martini Racing have had a busy off season in 2017 into 2018 with the arrival of not one but two new drivers.
Russian Sergey Sirotkin will make his Formula One race debut at this weekend's FIA Formula One world championship season opening Australian Grand Prix at Melbourne's Albert Park circuit.
Sirotkin joins Canadian Lance Stroll who returns to the team for a second season following a successful rookie campaign in 2017 which saw him claim a podium at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix.
The Williams Martini Racing drivers are joined by former Formula One race driver Robert Kubica who returns to the sport as the Grove based outfit's official test and reserve driver.
Speaking about the new season, Williams Martini Racing's Chief Technical Officer Paddy Lowe commented by saying:
We are all very excited to go back to Melbourne for the first race of the season. There are lots of new things this season with a new car, driver line-up, people, regulations and a range of new tyre compounds which I'm sure will make events interesting."
"The first race is always very special. It is good to get out of the European winter and to the pleasant climate in Melbourne with the enthusiastic crowds. Importantly, there is always a state of tension around where everyone will end up pace-wise with the first qualifying session being the most interesting hour of the F1 season, where we get the first exam results following our year-long build up to put together the FW41."
"We are excited to see Lance and Sergey in their first race as teammates, and it looks like there will be some close competition as all the teams appear to have done a fantastic job over the winter. And whilst that might make things difficult for the teams, it is great for the fans, so above all else, we hope to put on a great show for everyone in Australia."


Status: offline I have just started working on the next update - UPDATE6. My plan is to fix bugs and further improve the game performance. Thank you all for your patience.
2) Fixed a bug, American M2 Light Mortar now as the correct minimum and maximum range 3 - 45 hexes and American M19 Light mortar now has 2 - 18 hexes. Thanks UP844!
3) Added support for 2560 x 1600 resolution.
4) Fixed blind hexes issues with buildings for Line of Sight processing. In addition, I was able to improve LOS processing by 25% compared to the UPDATE5.
5) AFVs will now properly follow path to get on and off a bridge - Thanks LN59!
6) Fixed a bug, it is now possible to deploy a friendly unit into an enemy controlled hex that does not contain any enemy units; Thanks UP844!
7) Possible improvement in Line of Sight and Fog of War processing up to 50% - I hope.
Well so looks like 1.1.16 build has some issues with my LOS performance improvement - specifically blind hexes logic. Going forward, I have decided to split the LOS processing logic quality into types: FINE (same as before build 1.1.16, including official UPDATE5) and QUICK (which sacrifices a bit of quality for speed). When you start a new scenario in the Scenario Configuration Dialog, you now get to choose the LOS quality. Once you start a new scenario, you can check the current LOS Quality by going to Scenario Attributes dialog - please see the attached picture for details. The LOS Quality has to be saved in the saved game file so I had to modify the saved game file format, this means you won't be able to load old saved game files...sorry. So thanks to feed back from the users as well as Jorgen, I notice there is an issue with blind hexes logic using the QUICK LOS type. I'm currently looking into it but I wanted to release a version of a build that also allows the users to play with the default FINE LOS quality. - December 12, 2018 update: I'm having hard time to properly tune the LOS engine to make QUICK LOS feature to work properly. Some important drawbacks have been identified which I can't currently address so for now I'm disabling the feature in the build 1.1.18. I will look at this feature in the future as I'm always trying to improve the performance of the LOS engine.
9) December 13, 2018: - Fixed some text string issue when a a friendly Ordnance/AFV was firing vs an enemy AFV, thanks UP844.
10) December 23, 2018: - Fixed a bug, a few open topped AFVs where allowed to fire even though they were buttoned up, thanks UP844.
11) January 31, 2019: - Fixed a bug, AI AFV checking for available targets that are in /our of LOS. Thanks Ticonderoga60.
IMPORTANT: make sure you install UPDATE5 first, then overwrite the game executable with the 1.1.21 version attached in this message.
Status: offline Added support for 2560 x 1600 resolution.
Status: online Thanks for your dedication, Peter!
I am afraid the American 60mm mortars still require a bit of tweaking. ROF values should be "High" for the M2 and "Medium" for the M19.
I made a test scenario placing one mortar of each type and fired on a bunch of infantry squads for 10 turns (20 fire phases).
The M2 fired 27 shots over 17 fire phases (it was broken for three fire phases), with an average value of 1.58 shots per fire phase.
The M19 fired 46 shots over 18 fire phases (it was broken for two fire phases), with an average value of 2.70 shots per fire phase.
In my opinion, even though the test was carried out on a limited number of fire phases, the divergence between the two mortars is quite marked and it looks like the ROF values also need switching like the ranges did.
P.S. On a marginal note, the icons are still reverses, but this is a very minor point.
Status: offline Ok, I have changed the ROF (just uploaded updated 1.1.12 build), however I will not be changing the graphics.
Graphics are a very minor issue with no game impact.
Status: offline Peter - thanks for putting this out....using it and the speed is much improved with the processing! Some of the larger scenarios still bog down - I am hoping there are a few more tricks up your sleeve to remedy this?
Status: offline Possible bug in 1.12 beta - Noticed in a couple of games and doesn't happen every turn, but there seems to be a glitch that you cannot advance fire available units.
I have a game file I can share, but this post doesn't appear to allow me to upload the file.
Status: offline Try to Zip the file first.
Status: offline Thanks. Here you go. The scenario is Le Hemel. You should see some units that just moved and have the ability to Advance Fire.
Edit- you may not be able to replicate. Opened the file after restarting the game, and I was able to Adv Fire. Wondering if the memory runs out and prevents firing. As I said, it happen in another game about 7 turns in as well.
Status: offline I think I found another issue. I was able to fire through a building to a high hex. See the attached file. See the tank in hex 21,20 with target to 4,20. Tank is parked adjacent to the building so it isn't an issue where I am firing over the building from a distance back from the building.
The AI has been able to shoot through buildings at infantry in a multi-hex building sitting in the back hexes. It as if the terrain is getting completely ignored.
Thanks. Here you go. The scenario is Le Hemel. You should see some units that just moved and have the ability to Advance Fire.
I can't replicate this one either. Perhaps you tried to shoot with the HMG? Anyway I'll keep an eye on it.
Status: online This is a minor bug that occurs at random intervals, but it is not fatal. Just save and restart playing from the saved game: the units will fire as expected.
I reported the bug, but unfortunately the glitch that prevents the player units from firing gets cleared when the game is saved.
I think I found another issue. I was able to fire through a building to a high hex. See the attached file. See the tank in hex 21,20 with target to 4,20. Tank is parked adjacent to the building so it isn't an issue where I am firing over the building from a distance back from the building.
I have just fixed this issue, please download the latest build 1.1.3 beta and let me know.
Fixed blind hexes issues with buildings for Line of Sight processing. In addition, I was able to improve LOS processing by 25% compared to the UPDATE5.
Status: online Thanks, Peter! Your dedication is unbelievable!
Status: offline I have just uploaded 1.1.14 build, AI and Player AFVs will now properly follow path to get on and off the bridge - Thanks LN59 for finding the bug!
Status: online I only had time to play once with 1.1.13 and here we have 1.1.14!
I don't want to be a gimmie pig (I already know I am a monumental pain in the ***), but is there any chance to see the lack of acquisition when firing on AFVs after moving corrected?
Status: online I forget to specify that the issue affects AFVs firing in the Advancing Fire Segment after moving and stopping in their Movement Segment.
Why do the same moving and stopping AFVs gain acquisition if they fire to infantry units? One of the two kinds of fire is faulty, in my opinion.
In fact, I always fire in the Advancing Fire Segment to enemy infantry as a standard tactic, just to gain acquisition for the next fire phase, unless I have an AFV with limited HE ammo.
Thanks, Peter! Your dedication is unbelievable!
I have just started working on the next update - UPDATE6. My plan is to fix bugs and further improve the game performance. Thank you all for your patience.
Thank You for your dedication and your great consistency in the development of this brilliant game.
The mark of a "Grand Chief"!
6) Fixed a bug, when deploying a unit into an enemy hex (but there are no actual enemy units in that hex); it is now possible to deploy a friendly unit. Thanks UP844!
Status: offline Peter - I have the last 'Official' version at 1.1.09, should I install this one over that?
Peter - I have the last 'Official' version at 1.1.09, should I install this one over that?
yes, you just overwrite the game executable 1.1.09 with the beta version 1.1.15 attached in this thread.
Thanks guys! Once the build 1.1.16 works great I will focus on debugging and fixing why some arriving AFVs can never move in a scenario that UP844 has discovered.
Status: online What the hell, work can wait while I do something really important!

Since 2009, we've been sharing our passion for liege waffles with the Pacific Northwest and somewhere along the line, the world took notice. While we have always done what we do for love, the recognition our waffles have received has truly been an honor. We are so grateful to all the folks who have traveled far and wide to come and talk to us/ write about our waffles. Below you'll find a collection of our recent press features. Click on the article or logo to read more.
Take one glance at the sunny Clinton Street location of this Eugene-based chain and you'll see a familiar formula at play, one honed by beloved Northwest enterprises such as Pine State Biscuits, Laughing Planet and too many pizzerias to name: pick an item, master a recipe, come up with a dozen variations with whimsical names, then hire a bunch of kids to crank them out.
We live in a very pet-friendly area with many restaurants that allow customers to dine with their dogs … or cats. When I first got my dog a little more than a year ago, she was an 8-week-old rescue puppy with a boxer face and blue heeler paws, and I never wanted to leave her home alone.
You've never heard of this game. It's in only one cabinet, playable in one city and, generously estimating, maybe it makes a dollar a day. Nothing about this video game suggests it's someone's meal ticket, but it is. For life.

Consequence of Magnitude: Individuals Charged with DWI Are Eligible for Public DefendersDWI-temp-user2018-06-29T21:46:44+00:00
Individuals charged with DWI are eligible for public defenders, but private attorneys are a better option in NJ. Our attorney discusses it in details.
Interviewer: Are defendants eligible for public defenders or court-appointed attorneys even though a run of the mill DWI is not a criminal offense?
Attorney: Yes. In New Jersey a defendant is entitled to apply for a public defender if the case involves a consequence of magnitude. A consequence of magnitude means fines in excess of $750 or a license suspension or jail time.
In the case of a DWI because there are potential for all three of those penalties, defendants are entitled to apply for a public defender. Whether or not they meet the financial standards is a different story but yes, public defenders are available for DWI charges.
Self-Representation, Public Defenders and Private Attorneys: Which Option Is Best to Defend a New Jersey DWI Charge?
Interviewer: If someone were to represent themselves, what would you say is likely going to happen versus being appointed a public defender or retaining a private attorney? How would you compare the three?
Self-Representation Is Not Advisable Due to the Complexities of Navigating the Court System
Attorney: I would say that somebody who wants to represent themselves is not likely to get very far in the court system. Public defenders in municipal courts in New Jersey are actually just appointed positions. These are people who are private attorneys; they're paid by the township or the municipality to work as a public defender in that municipal court.
Court-Appointed Attorneys Generally Have a Private Practice as Well and Have Less Time in Which to Devote to Each Client
Often they are attorneys that have private defense practices on top of taking these jobs as public defenders. Sometimes there is a difference in the value of the service you get from a public defender as opposed to a private attorney. I wouldn't say that that's always the case.
I think that there are issues with public defenders in terms of requesting expert reviews and there are issues in the amount of time that they can devote to each case. There are issues with the amount of time that they have to meet with each client. Public defenders get paid very little for each case and usually have a very high volume of cases, which means that their clients often don't get the same kind of time and attention they would get from a private attorney.
Interviewer: Is it essentially a, "you get what you pay for," scenario? They just don't have the time and resources to do extra things that a private attorney might?
You Have to Meet Stringent Financial Standards to Qualify for a Court-Appointed Attorney
Attorney: I think that's probably true. Yes, in most cases I think you get what you pay for, although that's not always true. There are public defenders who are extremely conscientious and put a lot of time into their cases.
A public defender is better than representing yourself. But if you can afford a private attorney who specializes in DWI defense then, I would say, most times you are more likely to have a more favorable outcome than with a public defender.
Do Many People Have the Impression That a DWI Charge Isn't Serious Enough to Warrant Hiring an Attorney?
Interviewer: The reason I ask is I don't know if you encounter people that say, "Well, I may as well represent myself," or "Oh, a first time DWI is not really that serious, I should represent myself or just plead guilty."
Attorney: I get people sometimes who'll say, well, I'm guilty so I was just going to plead guilty. I've seen it happen. I've been sitting in court when somebody just pleads guilty without an attorney and it's painful to watch because you know that they haven't had anybody review their case.
Pleading Guilty: The State Must Prove Their Case So It Is Always Advisable to Have an Attorney Review the Facts and Circumstances of Your Case
They don't know that they have the right to defend the charge or they don't care because they think well, I know I was drunk so I'm just not going to defend it.
That's the wrong way of looking at it. It is not whether or not you think you were drunk it's whether or not the State can prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you were intoxicated and behind the wheel of a car.
It is important to remember the difference between those two issues.
Serving All of New Jersey!

US says Europeans did nothing to counter Iran missiles
Published: 12:26 EST, 24 May 2018 | Updated: 12:26 EST, 24 May 2018
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says Europeans did 'nothing' to support the US in pressuring Iran over its ballistic missile program
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo accused Europeans Thursday of having done nothing to counter Iran's program to develop ballistic missiles.
"The Europeans have told us ... that they are prepared to engage on missiles, and for three years did nothing," Pompeo told a hearing of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
Likewise, he said, European governments haven't done anything in support of the US campaign labelling Iran the world's leading sponsor of terror.
"They talked about agreeing to things on terror," Pompeo said, but did nothing.
President Donald Trump announced on May 8 that the United States was withdrawing from the Iran nuclear accord, calling its requirements on Tehran too weak.
Until that point the European parties to the accord, France, Germany and Britain, had negotiated with the Trump administration to find a solution to three primary US concerns: the Iran deal's 2025 sunset provisions on certain prohibited activities; Iran's ballistic missile program; and Iran's activities in other countries around the Middle East, including Syria and Yemen, which Washington considers "destabilizing".
According to European diplomats and some US officials, those talks had made significant progress and were close to completion when Trump announced he would pull out from the Iran nuclear deal.
Pompeo however rejected that view.
"We were never able to get there" in talks with the Europeans, he told the Senate panel.
"There was no evidence that the Europeans had any intention of actually agreeing to those three provisions."
Since then the other signatories -- the three Europeans, the European Union, Russia and China -- have sought to keep the Iran deal alive.
Pompeo earlier this week laid out 12 points that need to be addressed for a "new agreement" that covers a much broader range of issues.
However the other parties, including Iran, have all criticized the US approach.

Joel A. Nichols is a library administrator for data strategy and evaluation at the Free Library of Philadelphia. Below he writes about a May 2017 initiative launched by Knight Foundation and Niantic, the creators of Pokémon GO, to explore how technology can foster community engagement in several cities where Knight invests.
This summer the Free Library teamed up with Knight Foundation and Niantic, maker of Pokémon, to bring the popular mobile game to five of our neighborhood libraries. We asked our staff to think about the parks, murals, statues, paths, gardens, buildings, businesses and organizations around their libraries, and recommend neighborhood spots to become custom Pokéstops. We hoped that bringing neighbors and library visitors around these interesting spaces would encourage them to connect and explore their neighborhoods and share what they discovered.
To ensure that this pilot project addressed digital access barriers, we created paper maps to hand out to players who were participating without a phone. Those completing the crawl, either analog or virtual, earned a custom Pokémon GO poster.
We wanted this project to interact with our robust summer learning program, the Summer of Wonder. The Summer of Wonder encourages all Philadelphians to read for fun and to explore learning opportunities during the summer months. This was accomplished through completing activities and programs as part of a series of "learning paths" that participants can adapt to their needs and interests along the way. We linked up some of these activities and programs to our PokéStops.
For other library activities and events, we were also able to turn on lures inside the game. Lures attract Pokémon for capture, and consequently attract more participants, drawing new audiences into our programs.
We want to try to replicate similar experiments in the fall, as part of an ambitious plan to transform outdoor spaces at two neighborhood libraries into playful learning terrains over the next two years. We hope that Pokémon Go might lead residents visiting our two libraries to explore their neighborhood and its natural surroundings, including a reservoir that is being revitalized after years of blight, and Bartram's Mile, a new trail that provides direct access to the river.
The experiment taught us that there are valuable ways of using augmented reality experiences like Pokémon Go to attract people to our libraries, encourage them to create new paths of discovery and learning, and engage them in conversations about the spaces and places in their neighborhoods.

The Boy Who Made A Heartfelt Church Plea To Be Adopted Finally Finds A Family More Than A Year Later.
The boy who captured hearts around the nation when he asked a church to help him find a forever family in 2013 finally has one.
Connie Going, Davion Navar Henry Only's former caseworker, is currently finalizing the teen's adoption and expects to sign the paperwork on Wednesday.
Only attracted nationwide attention in 2013 when, on a Sunday, he decided to stand in front of St. Mark Missionary Baptist Church in St. Petersburg, Florida, and make a public plea to be adopted. (Scroll down for the video.)
1. Florida orphan Davion Only (left) is set to be adopted by his former caseworker Connie Going (right).
That June, the then-15-year-old Florida orphan who had been in foster care his entire life looked up his birth mother's name online and discovered that she had a criminal background. The boy also found her obituary — she had died just a few weeks earlier.
Only said then that he'd cried in the library, but made a decision not to let his family's history define him. The teen then decided to take matters into his own hands and find a lifelong family for himself. He said at the time:
I'll take anyone. Old or young, dad or mom, black, white, purple. I don't care. And I would be really appreciative. The best I could be. … I'm praying and still hoping. I know God hasn't given up and I'm not either.
The response to the teen's plea was overwhelming, with tens of thousands of calls being made to adoption agencies looking for information on the boy.
Requests poured in from all over the country, as well as from around the world, including from Canada, India, Mexico, Australia, Great Britain and Iran. Agency workers named it "the Davion effect."
2. Going said: "He has such a special spirit and he hasn't given up hope. I think it's a human's right to be loved and wanted."
The teen previously said:
I just wanted to let people know that it's hard to be a foster kid. People sometimes don't know how hard it is and how much we try to do good.
The boy explained at the time that, despite his age, he still needed a parent. He said:
Just 'cause I'm not going to be a kid doesn't mean you're still not my parent. I'm still gonna be your child. I'm still gonna need you down the road.
In 2014, the teen was removed from the home of a potential adoptive family. According to the Eckerd adoptive agency, which is overseeing his adoption process, the 16-year-old had an altercation with a member of his prospective family after moving in with them for a 90-day trial period.
3. Going, who was photographed straightening Only's tie that faithful day in church, said at the time that he was an inspiration to other children awaiting families.
Going, who was photographed straightening Only's tie that faithful day in church, said at the time that he was an inspiration to other children awaiting families. She said:
He has such a special spirit and he hasn't given up hope. I think it's a human's right to be loved and wanted. … When you don't feel that you are, it's hard to succeed in life.
And now she is set to take the boy into her family. A spokesperson for the Going family said:
Connie, Davion and their new family appreciate the outpouring of support and well wishes. Right now, they are taking some quiet as a family but look forward to sharing their story, knowing it will inspire and give hope to others.
In the meantime, they encourage everyone to follow their hearts no matter how difficult it may seem and to "be the change you wish to see in the world."
4. Teen orphan's "view" on family: "anybody who will love me" — an ABC News report.

Act in such a way that your heart may be free from hatred. Let not your heart be offended with anyone. If some one commits an error and wrong toward you, you must instantly forgive him. Do not complain of others. Refrain from reprimanding them, and if you wish to give admonition or advice, let it be offered in such a way that it will not burden the bearer. Turn all your thoughts toward bringing joy to hearts.
Instead of complaining, they rendered thanks unto God, and amidst the darkness of their anguish they revealed naught but radiant acquiescence to His will.
It is said in the New Testament that God is like a potter who makes "one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour."[1 Rom. 9:21] Now the dishonored vessel has no right to find fault with the potter saying, "Why did you not make me a precious cup, which is passed from hand to hand?" The meaning of this verse is that the states of beings are different. That which is in the lowest state of existence, like the mineral, has no right to complain, saying, "O God, why have You not given me the vegetable perfections?" In the same way, the plant has no right to complain that it has been deprived of the perfections of the animal world. Also it is not befitting for the animal to complain of the want of the human perfections. No, all these things are perfect in their own degree, and they must strive after the perfections of their own degree. The inferior beings, as we have said, have neither the right to, nor the fitness for, the states of the superior perfections. No, their progress must be in their own state.
Let us put aside all thoughts of self; let us close our eyes to all on earth, let us neither make known our sufferings nor complain of our wrongs.
Some of Our companions and friends in various places complained against this, as it was a very grievous act, and was disapproved by all the loved ones of God. How strange that Our sister should have taken her to her own house, and then arranged for her to be sent elsewhere! In spite of this, this Wronged One remained, and still remaineth, calm and silent. A word, however, was said in order to tranquilize Our loved ones.
Though weariness lay Me low, and hunger consume Me, and the bare rock be My bed, and My fellows the beasts of the field, I will not complain, but will endure patiently as those endued with constancy and firmness have endured patiently, through the power of God, the Eternal King and Creator of the nations, and will render thanks unto God under all conditions. We pray that, out of His bounty—exalted be He—He may release, through this imprisonment, the necks of men from chains and fetters, and cause them to turn, with sincere faces, towards His Face, Who is the Mighty, the Bounteous. Ready is He to answer whosoever calleth upon Him, and nigh is He unto such as commune with Him.
