The Christmas House of Dr. Absin
December 9, 2013 /in 2012, Galleries
Since 25 years Dr Absin's Christmas House opens the doors for visitors from the City, the Philippines and from all over the world. Everybody is invited to spend some hours at his property, to feel the spirit of Christmas.
Christmas House in Dumaguete
Since years, the Christmas House is a "must" on our schedule. One does never get too old for a visit. The visit is not only about the decorations. Many of the figurines are antiques, which are arranged into beautiful sceneries. Each by itself is admirable.
The Christmas House is located on 143 Hibbard Avenue. In 2013 it is supposed to open on December 14.

Christmas for the Kids at Provincial Hospital
October 26, 2013 /in 2012, Dumaguete, Galleries
Some folks organize traditionally some special Christmas for the children, which are admitted to Negros Oriental Provincial Hospital in Dumaguete at Christmas. The guys and girls will meet on 23rd of December downtown at Casablanca Restaurant and go to the Hospital together.
Dumaguete Project Santa Thursday Club at Provincial Hospital 2012
As we couldn't write it better, below the original post as a quote:
Project Santa 13
Have you noticed how quickly the time flies by ? Yep, me too. Every year seems to disappear a bit quicker than the one before. It seems like only yesterday that we were scrabbling around, ticking off lists, packing bags, and testing cuddly toys for the surprise visit of Santa to the children in the Provincial Hospital at Christmas. But the clock never stands still and here we are again almost halfway through the "ber" months. Two months from today will be Christmas Eve, so it's time to kick-start Project Santa 13. Last year we provided gift bags for 150 children, from new born and premature babies to 11 years old, and we just about made the mark in quantity. So this year we will provide for 200 children. At just 200 pesos per child the Christmas fund will need 40,000 pesos. The largest group is the walking age to 5, so the breakdown of gift bags will possibly be as follows:-
New babies to pre-walking – 50 bags.
Walking to 5/6 ish unisex – 70 bags.
5/6 to 11 ish girls – 40 bags.
5/6 to 11 ish boys – 40 bags. Total 200 bags.
The age groups of those in there can never be accurately predicted as there are constant admissions and departures. So the increased quantity of gift bags for the 5/6/7 years old age bracket gives us a grey area where the child could get a gift bag from any of the categories other than new babies. All of the bags contain hygiene products with variations according to age and sex, plus games, books, colouring books, pens, yo-yo's, dolls, cars, things that bounce and things that don't, plus all new babies and unisex to 5/6 also have a safe cuddly toy.
I risk repeating myself here from last year, but I make no apologies for that. The children that are in there at Christmas are from the poorest and most marginalised sections of society. Most know what Christmas is, but none of them have experienced the indulgences that we take for granted in the western world. They're sick, they're in a strange environment, they're in pain and they're frightened. Some of them, sadly, may not have another Christmas. For them it's just another day amongst the 365, and our object is to change that. It only takes an hour to hand out the gifts, but the look of surprise and excitement from the kids makes it a truly magical hour.
I'd like to emphasise, so that there can be no misinterpretation, that this is a notice of intent, simply an announcement of what we plan, and is in no way a solicitation for donations. Any help is gratefully received, but that is a matter for each individuals conscience and generosity. We kick-off today with 5000 in the pot. Come what may, I guarantee that the 40k will be there.
One hour. Free
One gift bag. 200 pesos.
One smile from a sick child. Priceless.
While surely everybody is busy to feast at the companies Christmas parties, family gatherings and so on, any kind of support is appreciated.
Just be a part of it to create a smile like on the picture below.
The Happy Santa's Helper..

The whole event does not take much longer than 1 – 2 hours. If you have any questions, want to share some of your precious time, or even have 200 Peso left to give one of those poor children a very special day, just get in touch with us via the contact form.

Miss Dumaguete 2012
December 10, 2012 /in 2012, Galleries
The Miss Dumaguete Beauty Pageant is without any doubts one of the highlights of each years Fiesta in Dumaguete. Like each year, the Macias Sports complex was filled with thousands of spectators, cheering for the candidates. But before it got there, they all had to go through some weeks of screening and endless presentations.
Before the lovely ladies entered the stage we were able to sneak backstage and take some snapshots during their preparation for the show.

text: They have been referred to as the Pixies of the cat world, a cross between a cat, a dog, a monkey and Dennis the Menace. Delightfully silly in both antics and appearance, they capture the heart and the imagination. What are these curly coated living works of art? Let me introduce you to the captivating, the mischievous, the loving, The Devon Rex. The first thing that catches the eye is that magical face. The Devon Rex is a breed that is unique in appearance. Large eyes, a short muzzle, prominent cheekbones and those ears! The ears are gigantic and ultra wide set at the base, extend beyond the side of the head, have large bells on the back of the ears, and evoke a feeling in onlookers of being in the presence of an extraterrestrial. Just looking at them brings a smile across the face. Advocates of the Devon Rex have been known to say that "in order to completely appreciate the appearance of the Devon Rex, you must first put aside all of your preconceived ideas of what a cat should look like." Three pairs of convex curves formed by the Devon's huge ears, prominent cheeks and round whisker pads, frame the cats softly triangular head. These "poodles that purr" sport a medium- fine frame that is covered by a distinctive soft, wavy coat that comes in a rainbow of colors including the pointed colors. Devons are currently accepted in all colors and patterns. With such a recent history of lusty farm cats so close behind this breed, it would be folly to have restrictions on their colors and patterns. Although great attention is paid to the coat and curl, no limitations are placed on pigmentation. A kitten whose color is point restricted, as in the Siamese, sometimes appears and surprises Devon breeders. That rascal Kirlee, father to all Devons, is thought to have carried the gene for it. These little pixies are alert and inquisitive, showing interest in all that is around them. By the same token, these active cats are also very much people cats and are strongly devoted to their owners, claiming a lap and a good snuggling whenever the opportunity arises. They purr incessantly, chortle and coo when intrigued by the birds outside the window and wag their tails when they are happy. Devons are an outgoing breed that run to meet you at the door at the end of a long day and tell you in no uncertain terms how much you were missed. They love sleeping under the covers with you and many will also brave the waters of a shower just to be near their person. They are driven to be with people from the moment they first toddle out of the kitten box at around three weeks of age. The mission is to find a soft hand and a warm lap. They are hearty eaters although most would prefer to steal or beg tidbits from the table. This is probably an attention getting ploy. But attention is the key to living with a Devon. They are intense, personable cats. They are clowns. They are lovers. . . And they want to be involved with their people. The popularity of the house cat as the favored domestic pet has soared over the past several years. With that growth, the growth in popularity of the Devon Rex has been phenomenal. They have a gentle voice, have a need to be with people, shed almost unnoticeably, have wonderful puppy-dog-like personalities, don't require much space and seem to be well tolerated by many allergy sufferers. Elfin Magic has worked its spell on untold numbers. Early History In 1960, Miss Beryl Cox was living in Buckfastleigh, Devon, England near an old abandoned tin mine. A curly coated feral tomcat was known to live around the mine but no one had been able to capture the wild cat. Miss Cox, a kind woman, who had been crippled as a result of a war injury, gave shelter to a feral tortoiseshell and white female behind her house. When this female gave birth to kittens in her back garden, Miss Cox was not surprised to find that one of them was a beautiful, brownish-black male with lots of curls, some of which even cascaded in ringlets on his tail. It is believed that this mother was an offspring of the unnamed and untouchable tin mine troubadour and that this litter was sired by him as well. Miss Cox, being a cat lover, decided to keep this lovely kitten who was the spitting image of his father, as her own pet. She named him Kirlee. Ten years earlier, another curly kitten had been found in Cornwall England. This kitten was named Kallibunker and a group of interested breeders had been working diligently to try to establish the Rex cat as a breed. It was found through outcrossing to straight-coated cats that the gene responsible for the rexed coat mutation was a simple recessive. The first litters all yielded straight-coated kittens but when those kittens were bred back to Kallibunker, the yield was 50% curly and 50% straight. The gene pool was tiny and the breeders were struggling to increase it. Ten years to the day following the birth of Kallibunker, that first rexed coated kitten, an article was published in The English Daily Mirror, an English newspaper. It featured a picture of a lovely curly cat that had one eye closed and appeared to be winking." He was touted as the only curly coated kitten in the country. This kitten was "Du-Bu Lambtex", the first rex coated kitten to be born as a result of the concerted breeding efforts of Kallibunker. Miss Cox, saw the article and wrote a letter to the breeder group stating that Lambtex was not the only curly coated kitten in the country as she also had one, Kirlee. It is interesting to note that Kirlee and Kallibunker shared identical histories. Both were born from Tortoiseshell and white feral cats, both had fathers that could not be positively identified above rumor and both were single curly coated kittens in litters of all straight coated siblings. The breeders in England were ecstatic over the possibility of another curly kitten. This could be just the boon that was needed to infuse life into their breeding program. Kirlee, as a supposed distantly related cat with the same spontaneous genetic mutation, would be a good outcross. Mr. Brian Stirling-Webb, a noted breeder of rex cats and rex rabbits, and Mrs. Agnes Watts of Du-Bu Cattery, agreed that someone should go to see this kitten to confirm that he was indeed another genetic mutation with rexing of the coat. Agnes Watts and her daughter, Susan made the trip to the neighboring county to see Kirlee. He was indeed a lovely rexed cat. Miss Cox was encouraged to allow Kirlee to be integrated into the current breeding program. Understanding what Kirlee could mean to the establishment of the breed, she sold her beloved pet, Kirlee, to Mr. Stirling-Webb for 25 English pounds. Kirlee then left the county of Devon and at the request of Mr. Stirling-Webb, went to live at Darby House with Agnes and Susan Watts. Kirlee was mated to several Rex queens and the group waited in anticipation for the kittens to arrive. The days rolled by and one by one the litters were born but there were no curly kittens to be had in any of them. Breedings were repeated and still no curly kittens. It was a large discouragement to all. It became apparent that Kirlee did not carry the same genetic makeup as the other curly cats. After acceptance of the knowledge that he was a definite separate genetic variation, the first rexed cats which we now know as Cornish Rex were referred to as "Gene I Rex," while the cats which we now know as Devon Rex became known as "Gene II Rex." One member of the group, a Mrs. P. Hughes had kept one of the straight-coated females from one of the litters that she had bred. This female was named Broughton Golden Rain. She was bred back to Kirlee, her father. The resulting litter yielded two straight-coated kittens and, lo and behold, one curly blue cream female. This tiny dilute girl became the first curly coated kitten to be born from Kirlee. (Of interest, Golden Rain, the straight coated female born out of Kirlee and a descendant of Kallibunker, was later mated to a Gene I Rex and produced a litter of two straight-coated kittens and two curly kittens.) She thus became the first hybrid known to carry both Rex genes. With this confirmation that the genetic material for the Cornwall Rex and the Devonshire Rex were not compatible, a new breed was born. The task now at hand was to proceed with diligent work to establish both Rex cats as independent breeds. Kirlee and his descendants were and are, The Devon Rex. In 1964 Kirlee was neutered and placed in a loving pet home by Mr. Stirling-Webb. Kirlee lived out a long and productive life. He even continued to preside at cat shows until 1970 as the much admired original Devon. Kirlee unfortunately passed away in 1970 as a result of injuries suffered in a street accident. Since the Devon Rex had such an intertwined beginning with the Cornish Rex, it is interesting to take a step back and really look at the differences between these two breeds. There are several features that set the breeds apart phenotypically as well as genetically. The coat of the feline has three different types of hair: guard hair, awn and down. The guard hair is the coarsest of the three types of hair and makes up the outer layer of a cat's coat. The Cornish has a short coat with no guard hair. This makes for the silky feel and a more orderly natural pattern to the wave. The Devon has all three types of coat hair. The guard hair however, is very sparse, short and rexed. It has a slightly denser texture and is thus responsible for the more open, billowing wave and the looser curl of the Devon coat. To pet a Rex is pure pleasure and fortunately these curly cats love to be handled. Both breeds are very affectionate. The Devon likes nothing better than to cuddle up right under your chin. The Devon head is not narrow at the nose like the Cornish but is shorter and squarer and has a definite whisker pinch. The nose also has a definite stop or change of direction where the Cornish profile sports a straight Roman nose. The Devon ears sit lower on the head and extend out to the side where the Cornish ears are positioned higher and sit more atop the head. The Cornish is also a thin, svelte cat with an arch to its back and a definite tuck-up to its abdomen as is seen on the greyhound dog. The Devon, on the other hand, is a somewhat fuller bodied cat without the arch or tuck-up. The chest of the Devon is broad, with the legs coming off of the outside shoulder and sloping gently inward, giving the appearance of a little bulldog in stance. All in all, it seems that the only things that these two breeds do actually have in common is that they both have lovely, silky, luxurious curly coats with kinky little whiskers that are short, curly and brittle. Devons Come to America Alison Ashford, of Annelida cattery, one of the early pioneers in Britain's Devon breeding, tells of her first Devon acquisition: "I visited Mrs. Sedgefield of Esher one day in 1962 and saw Du-Bu-Debbie, a young tortoiseshell female with her litter of Rex and plain kittens. One kitten jumped into my arms from the floor, and literally refused to be put down. I tried to turn away, but loud purring and a wagging tail were prelude to another amorous leap. "This was Broughm, then six months old. I could not then really afford the price of a Rex kitten, but I could not leave him. So I rashly wrote a cheque on my housekeeping account and phoned home to warn my husband to have a bed ready for the new acquisition. "I was given a somewhat cold reception when I arrived home, but Broughm's charm soon convinced the family that it would be worth eating bread and cheese for the next month." (Ashford and Pond, p. 18) By 1967, the Devon Rex was accepted for competition in Europe (GCCF) and Mrs. Gentry's 'Amharic Kurly Katie,' bred by a Mrs. Knight, became the first Devon Rex Champion in any association. Since that time, the British bred Devon Rex have traveled to many countries where new eager enthusiasts engaged in the endeavor of bringing these pixies to the world. The first Devon to cross the Atlantic was Annelida Smokey Pearl, who was sent to Miss Mary Carroll of Canada. Shortly thereafter, Annelida Callidor joined Pearl. There were, however, no known breedings that took place with these cats. The first North American breeding program of Devon Rex was established in 1968. Marion White and her daughter Anita had become familiar with the breed following a military posting in England. Two lovely cats, Annelida Aubretia and Wigmel Black Witch winged their way across the great ocean and came to live with the Whites in their home in Austin, Texas. Anglo-Tex Devon Rex was born. The British breeder, Mrs. Alison Ashford chose these two cats for Anglo-Tex. In 1969, Shirley Lambert of Bob 'N Shir Cattery, imported Hesperian Orchid and Wigmel Telaman to her home in Texas. The pair were seal pointed Devons and were the first pointed Devons in America. The Whites and the Lamberts imported a few more Devons and together they worked with a combined breeding pool of eight cats. Among those Devons imported were Annelida Sunset Gleam of Anglo-Tex, Redcliffe Pegasus of Bob'N Shir, Hadrian Blue Angel of Anglo-Tex, and Toby Touchstone of Van Dol. The interest in the Devon Rex in North America continued to grow and over the next several years, ten new breeding programs were begun and forged ahead down the road of helping to establish this wonderful breed in the US and Canada. In 1974, Becky Curneen, of Far North cattery, imported a pair to Washington State. Delores Johnson, of Dee Jon cattery, imported three devons to Oregon. Frank and Wendy Chappell, of Yclept cattery, imported five devons to British Columbia. Frances Kirkham, of Cal-Van cattery, imported a pair to Alberta. In 1977, Ann Gibney, of Scattergold cattery, returned from England with her first Devon, Annelida Pervinca, and added a second one in 1980. In 1978 the single greatest influx of Devons to the US occurred when British breeders Roma and Lajla Lund, of Homeacres Cattery, immigrated to the United States bringing with them well over a dozen of their Homeacres Devons. In 1980, Mary Robinson, of Marya cattery, a Persian breeder at the time, fell in love with pictures of a New Zealand cat named Annelida Seagull. She tracked down the breeder and imported three Devons from New Zealand to Canada. In those twelve years between 1968 and 1980 the core of the North American Devon Rex breeding program was established. Why Hybridize? Since all Devons evolved out of the first genetic mutation, Kirlee, the gene pool remained dreadfully small even though the numbers of devons were increasing dramatically. Initially the Devons were heavily inbred simply to establish a pool from which to work. This silver cloud did however have a black lining. The toll of inbreeding had begun manifesting itself in genetic problems present in the general feline population, but concentrated in Devons through the inbreeding. In addition, a neurological condition causing muscle spasticity appeared in very low numbers, but apparently only in Devons. The focus turned to hybridization through total outcross. Outcrossing is still actively done to insure a healthy breed with a wide and diverse gene pool and it is working! The currently accepted outcrosses in CFA are the American Shorthair and the British Shorthair, although many different breeds were used initially. As mentioned earlier, the Rex gene is a simple recessive and thus the labor of an outcross hybrid program is truly a labor of love for the breed, as all first generation kittens will be straight and on average, 50% of all second generation kittens will be straight. Another problem that surfaced was parental blood incompatibilities resulting in the death of kittens. Many Devons were found to carry type A blood while others carry Type B blood. When an 'A' male was bred to a 'B' female the mother's milk would contain antibodies against the kittens' own blood and result in the death of the kittens. All breeding Devons are now blood typed and if a breeding such as the above occurs, the kittens are hand fed every two hours until the gut closes internally and they can handle the antibodies on their own. The Road to CFA Acceptance The Cornish Rex had a good head start on the Devon. Having been established ten years prior, and referred to simply as the Rex, they had been accepted into championship with CFA in 1964. CFA did not recognize the Devon Rex as a separate breed but adopted a policy that all curly coated cats were to be registered as the same breed, Rex Cats. Both Devon breeders and Cornish breeders recognized the total incompatibility of the genetic make up of these two breeds and maintained separate breeding stock. The Rex cats were however, shown together with the standard being that of the Gene I Rex, or the Cornish Rex. What had made breeders fall in love with the Devon was the impish pixie look. They were not willing to breed towards the Cornish standard and risk losing those devilish expressions. In 1972, ACFA was the first North American registry to recognize the Devon Rex as a separate breed. While other associations were recognizing the Gene II Rex as the Devon Rex, CFA continued their stance of considering all Rex cats as one breed. The CFA Executive Board was not moved by numerous letters from Devon breeders to reconsider this stance. Finally, in 1978 it was felt that the climate might be more conducive for acceptance and formal concerted efforts were once again mounted. Anita White provided most of the history, experiences and background for the group and Ann Gibney became the spokesperson who addressed the CFA Executive Board with the plea once again to separate the Gene I and the Gene II Rex cats. In 1979 this wish was granted and CFA accepted the Devon Rex as a breed unto its own with registration rights. Dr. Gibney continued to play a key role in the advancement of the breed. She was vigilant and determined. She attended all board meetings and Annuals to speak up for the Devon Rex. In 1981 the breed was advanced to Provisional status. Breeders who had previously stayed away from CFA now registered their cats with CFA. They began showing the cats in the Provisional class in good numbers. All of their hard work paid off. In 1983 the Devon Rex gained Championship status in CFA. CFA was the last registering body in the world to grant this status.

Liverpool have excluded Xherdan Shaqiri from their travelling squad against Red Star Belgrade. Xherdan Shaqiri's Albanian origin has been the issue for his exclusion from the squad of the Reds. Xherdan Shaqiri's motherland Kosovo is independent; but Serbia do not agree with it and that's why the problem has been arisen.
The situation has reignited when Xherdan Shaqiri scored for Switzerland against Serbia in the World Cup Group Stage match. The Swiss player has shown the Albanian independence symbol after scoring a goal against Serbia. The Serbs did not take it easily. There have been a lot of speculations of Xherdan Shaqiri's arrival in Serbia because of this match since the draw result has been announced.
Various rumours have been spread about the welcome reception of Xherdan Shaqiri in Serbia. Therefore the club management of the Reds have decided to go without Xherdan Shaqiri against Red Star Belgrade. Jurgen Klopp has indicated that the Swiss player had been excluded from the squad of Liverpool due to political reasons. The football is the main focus of the team Liverpool and they don't want to shift the focus to other matters. Klopp has also told that it is really unfortunate for them not to include Xherdan Shaqiri for this match.
However, the decision is made to avoid the unwanted circumstances in the Stadium during the game of Liverpool. Klopp has mentioned that in this World, we have to live with this politics and they don't want to be involved in this. Liverpool will wish to be on the safe side to qualify from this Group with winning the match against Red Star Belgrade in Serbia. In the previous match against them at the Anfield, the Reds were able to thrash the Serbian side with a margin of 4-0. All the members of the attacking trio of Liverpool, have been in the score-sheet in that match.
Jurgen Klopp will expect the same sort of performance from their players in the away match against Red Star Belgrade too. Naby Keita has been included in the squad of the Reds for this match. However, Jordan Henderson is still recovering from his injury and he has stayed back at Melwood, the training ground of Liverpool. Liverpool club management will hope that the exclusion of Xherdan Shaqiri will not cause much problem to their side. Though there might be a shortage in options in the attacking third if the trio of Liverpool get fatigued.
Liverpool have lost two points against the Gunners as they were not able to keep the lead after getting ahead in the match against Arsenal at the Emirates. After this result, now they are at the third position of the League Table in the Premier League at this point of time. Jurgen Klopp will hope to beat Red Star Belgrade at their own den to gain the much needed confidence boost up that will help them to come back in the winning ways in the Premier League from the next match against Crystal Palace.

BOSTON — Coast Guard crews along with the Provincetown Fire Department medically evacuated a fisherman Saturday morning after he fell overboard approximately two miles off the coast of Provincetown.
The captain of the scallop boat Glutton notified the Coast Guard at approximately 7:15 a.m. that one of his crew, a 24-year-old man, had fallen overboard and became entangled in fishing gear. The fisherman freed himself, resurfaced and was recovered by the Glutton crew.
A 47-foot Motor Lifeboat crew from Coast Guard Station Provincetown arrived on scene with an emergency medical technician from the Provincetown Fire Department to assess the condition of the fisherman.
The fisherman was transferred to the Coast Guard boat which was met by an Air Station Cape Cod MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter crew. The aircrew hoisted the patient and transported him to Cape Cod Hospital in Hyannis for further care.
The fisherman's last known condition was conscious and stable.


Judo was founded in 1882 in Japan by Jigoro Kano but the sport has developed from then and it is now considered as modern martial arts with a mix of fighting styles. Compared to other martial arts such as taekwondo and kung fu, judo is less about striking and more about grappling with opponents. Fans of mixed martial arts and boxing can visit AT Madrid to wager on the latest matches and to predict the fighters they believe will win their respective bouts.
Judo grew out of jiujitsu, a martial art that has been described as wrestling-like. Jigoro Kano, a jiujitsu student studied various forms and styles of the martial art.
He took elements from each jiujitsu style and compiled them into a new martial art called judo. By taking his favourite elements, he created judo and began teaching students at his dojo. Martial arts is now considered an Olympic Sport, with lots of tournaments taking place around the world. If you are a fan of Judo or in general of mixed martial arts, you can find the latest odds on combat sports events with this code and wager on the top fighters.
In the late 1880s, Kano travelled to Europe in hopes of spreading judo. The martial art was slowly introduced around the world until 1908 then Kano was elected to the International Olympic Committee where his voice helped the sport spread even further.
However, it wasn't until 1964 that judo became an official men's Olympic sport at the Tokyo Games, then in 1992, women's judo became an official Olympic sport.
Like other martial arts, judo is a way to harness the powers of the body and mind, and focus them into one. Many practitioners believe that truly understanding judo can bring a balance in a judoka's life.
One of the leading aspects of judo and why individuals train to become a judoka is it allows a person of small-statured to compete with a much larger and stronger individual. Judo isn't about brute strength or punching power, It's about control, balance, and leverage.
Judo has three major categories when it comes to techniques. These categories include throwing (nage waza), grappling (katame waza) and vital-point striking (atemi waza).
Nage waza moves are designed to unbalance opponents and throw them to the mat. There are numerous nage waza moves that a judoka can learn.
Katame waza moves consist of holding, strangling, joint twisting, and counter movement techniques, designed to prevent an opponent from moving freely. Katame waza techniques are further divided into three subgroups: holding down moves (osae waza), strangling (shime waza), and joint lock techniques (kansetsu waza).
Atemi waza techniques consist of striking manoeuvres. The strikes can be completed by using the hands, fingers, outer edge of the hand, elbows and knees, feet, and heels. These moves are aimed at vital target points on the opponent's body. Atemi waza striking moves are not allowed in judo competitions due to the injuries that can be inflicted on opponents.
According to the International Judo Federation claims 40 million people practice the martial art. Judo's popularity continues to grow and with the UFC now a part of mainstream culture, it is likely more people will discover judo.

Psoriasis associated with hepatitis C but not with hepatitis B
Arnon D. Cohen, Dahlia Weitzman, Shlomo Birkenfeld, Jacob Dreiher
Purpose: To investigate the association between psoriasis and viral hepatitis. Methods: Psoriasis patients were compared to controls regarding the prevalence of viral hepatitis in a case-control study using logistic multivariate models. The study was performed utilizing the medical database of Clalit Health Services. Results: The study included 12,502 psoriasis patients >20 years old and 24,287 age- and sex-matched controls. The prevalence of hepatitis C in patients with psoriasis was increased compared to the prevalence in controls (1.03 vs. 0.56%; p < 0.001). In a multivariate analysis, psoriasis was associated with hepatitis C. An interaction with smoking was noted (smokers: odds ratio, OR = 1.93, 95% confidence interval, CI = 1.30-2.67; nonsmokers: OR = 2.22, 95% CI = 1.63-3.04). The prevalence of hepatitis B in patients with psoriasis was higher than in the controls (0.74 vs. 0.56%; p = 0.043). However, in a multivariate analysis psoriasis was not associated with hepatitis B (OR = 1.22, 95% CI = 0.93-1.60, p = 0.15). Conclusion: Our observation supports previous reports of an association between psoriasis and hepatitis C but not with hepatitis B. Physicians who care for patients with psoriasis should be aware of this possible association and consider screening patients with psoriasis for hepatitis C.

Blessed Trinity students performed 'For Your Tomorrow We Gave Our Today' to local schools, culminating in a widely praised performance for the public at Burnley Youth Theatre – a play all about Burnley.
The school worked in collaboration with Burnley Youth Theatre and also with historian Mike Townend, the Senior Curator of Towneley Hall.
Curriculum Leader for Performance Arts Mrs Wright secured a £10,000 grant from National Lottery Heritage Funding to fund the play which had an all-female cast.
"We have been running our Drama Academy for a few years and we wanted to do an outreach programme for the local community," said Mrs Wright.
"We talked to Burnley Youth Theatre and they suggested National Lottery Heritage Funding. It had to be about World War 1 to mark the centenary. I had never bid for anything before so was stunned when they granted us £10,000.
"We talked to Mike and read his books, where there were lots of stories about local people who had a big influence during World War One.
"Taylor Barnes, from Burnley Youth Theatre, worked with the cast and created and devised a play based on real-life people all from the local area.
"It tells the story of Bea who finds a diary and it flicks between World War One and modern day about the difference between a woman's role in the army then and now."
Mike said: "The students wanted to look at the war from the point of view of women. We were able to help by focusing on individual stories and relationships between women and their loved ones. The students have obviously enjoyed the experience but in doing so learnt a great deal."
Mrs Wright added: "350 children from primary schools have already been to watch it and some of the teachers said they found it emotional.
"The cast went to the Imperial War Museum in Manchester as part of their research and took it extremely seriously. We hope this isn't just a one-off and we can perform it again.
"We were so grateful to get the grant and were pleased the National Lottery Heritage Fund thought it was a strong project for the community and for the children at school to learn and develop as well as produce a really good piece of theatre."
The show for the public was held on 14 March 2019 at the Burnley Youth Theatre.

Now in our 12th year of bringing you beautiful imagery from biomedical science every day
Hurtling through cells like a spaceship zooming past the stars, this video takes you on a journey through a mouse's brain. Interactive explorations like this provide valuable information about how various diseases take hold in the brain, but have always taken weeks to produce. A new technique, however, produced this visualisation in just a few hours. The aptly-named 'FAST' (block-face serial microscopy tomography) method automatically slices the brain into micro-layers, then processes the segments, producing images so detailed that individual cells, and their contents, can be seen. Dramatically reducing the time taken to process samples means multiple brains can be compared together, allowing a new avenue of investigation for researchers. The technique has already been scaled up and tested on human samples, raising hopes that it'll soon be used to identify precise physical abnormalities in diseased brains, and ultimately lead to new treatments.

Amy Coney Barrett · Bernie Sanders · Hillary Clinton · RBG · Sep 27, 2020
The Vicious, Vacuous, and Ignorant Sanders Left
Okay, so first things first: Amy Coney Barrett. Right wing trolls, and I include Senator Marco Rubio in that group, got "The Notorious ACB" trending over the weekend. They are all sadists and they will not allow liberals or anyone decent really, to grieve. They get off on this shit.
So I looked into this name sitch, and guess what? Yeah, she hyphenated. Sorry! Nope. That don't fly. You don't get to shit on women, shut down women's rights, brag about kneeling in submission to your husband, and...hyphenate your name.
You're Amy Barrett. Heretofore to be known as "Barrett" from me.
Now, since the biggest whore in NY, Donald Trump, is going to be the one to appoint the judge who will overturn Roe (and likely Griswold but I'll get to that and dumb suburban married white woman in another blog), we are going to have to expand the court. The makeup of the court does not reflect the popular vote in 2 decades, and that's something called minority rule. And it cannot stand.
So I want to show you a little conversation I was having on another blog:
ME: "I agree. And I am not of the Bernie nor even the Warren left. I am a Hillary Clinton democrat and have been ever since I first saw and heard her in 1991. I went door to door for the dems as a young woman in 92. I don't like the so-called squad, because they are awful to Hillary Clinton, when they should stand on her shoulders and say "thank you". instead they thank Bernie Sanders. make it make sense. But I understand that i am no longer young and that the future belongs to the young. And I know the AOC left WILL expand the court. I would rather live in that future than the one McConnell has arranged for us. I don't like her and yet if she challenges Schumer I will vote for her in NY. It's not hard since I don't like him either. Personalities are not important. What can you get done, is."
Shanaynay says:
"Hillary Clinton is a corporatist who wanted to keep fighting wars in the middle East. Wall Street lined her pockets. She is old guard to the core and nothing would've really changed in major way under her administration, ie climate change, student loans, helping the middle class, etc. Ppl who aren't millennials or gen z who have been through 2 economic recessions and are inheriting the mess that is the current global economic and environmental issues just don't seem to get it. WE NEED RADICAL CHANGE. I'm sorry but why should she held on a pedestal to worship other than being a female politician?"
Now, first things first. Notice how she tells on herself immediately.
"why should she held on a pedestal to worship."
I never used the word worship, nor would I. I worship no one. But she does. The Sanders left is as cult like as MAGA. Both enthralled to angry white men.
Secondly, as someone who went door to door, marched, was shoved into oncoming traffic by the then-nascent tea party in the aughts, worked nationally for a liberal group, and rarely rested, for DECADES, just say thank you and move on, asshole.
But the Sanders left cannot do that. Why? Because they're assholes. This goes for the so-called squad too. Nasty as vipers to Hillary Clinton and other trailblazers, accomplished jackshit so far, but are here to tell you how smart and great they are. Never a nod to the women before them, women who did the work. No graciousness in them. Always snarling, always us vs them, always wanting to tell you how great they are.
Unfortunately, due to the GOP going bug-fuck nuts and taking a good part of the citizenry with them, people like me are stuck with the AOC asshole left, or the authoritarian, white supremacist, Handmaid right.
So I will throw down with the left. Because the supreme court MUST be expanded. But I want to make myself absolutely 100% clear. Don't ever think I think you're something. I don't. I have the same opinion of you that you hold of me, except I've done the work.
When the day comes that you've done the work? Then you will have my respect, but you still won't be someone I want to hang with. That's okay. And i hope that day does come. All depends on that. It cannot be overstated. Everything depends on your future accomplishments, so may they be many.
But...If you assholes weren't so busy proving how cool you are by using right wing propaganda against Hillary in 2016, there's be no Trump, there'd be no Kavanaugh, there'd be no Barrett.
I'll die mad about that. So talk big online, but when you see me in person, watch yourself. Say thank you, or say nothing.

Q: Why is the width transition not working for screens smaller than 800px? I'm working on a responsive website. I want the nav to fly in from left on small screens. For testing I added a click listener which adds and removes the class ".sidenav" to the nav.
Screen bigger than 800px:

*

*There is enough space for the nav so it is shown since beginning. For testing the click also works and you see the nav expanding with a smooth transition.

Screen smaller than 800px:

*

*There is not enough space for the nav so it is hidden. When clicking the nav is shown but without a transition.

Where is the mistake?

A: The issue you have is that for viewports that are less than 800px you set display: none as property, first of all is not transitioned anywhere and in second place that's is a not transitioned property. It means that it has only discrete values going to unset immediately in your case.
I suggest you to play with visibility property for this effect, that's not transitionable but you can delay its appearing with transition-delay property.
Hope it helps!

A: As mentioned in the above posts display: none; is not transitionable. Thus I removed it and kept width: 0; which has the same visual effect. In addition I had to move transition: width 2s; into the class .sidenav.

APPELLATE COURT RULING: A Win for Physicians and Patients
This week, the New Jersey Superior Court Appellate Division upheld the trial court's opinion in Garcia v. HealthNet concerning billing practices at the Wayne Surgical Center. The unpublished per curiam appellate court decision affirmed the lower court ruling that physicians are not compelled to collect co-insurance from their patients. MSNJ participated as amicus curiae. The AMA's Litigation Center provided support for the appeal.
This case was filed by physicians in 2006 when HealthNet refused to renew their contracts. HealthNet counterclaimed and countersued the Wayne Surgical Center alleging fraud, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, unjust enrichment, and tortuous interference with HealthNet's subscriber contracts. The physicians were in-network providers with an ownership interest in Wayne Surgical Center; the surgical center was not a network facility.
HealthNet's appeal was from the 2007 trial court decision that was favorable to both the physician community and to the owners of ambulatory care facilities. HealthNet alleged violations of the "Codey Act" prohibition on self-referal and improper billing practices by the surgical center in violation of the Insurance Fraud Protection Act (IFPA). HealthNet also alleged violations of the IFPA because the facilities failed to disclose that they waived collection of co-insurance. The trial court found that the referral practices of the physicians were in violation of the "Codey Act" (which was subsequently amended and allows the conduct complained of), but the State, not HealthNet, had authority to prosecute those violations. The trial court also found no authority to support HealthNet's claim that providers' failure to collect co-insurance violated the IFPA.
The appellate division evaluated HealthNet's theory on appeal that the trial court had used an erroneous "knowledge" standard under the IFPA. Since knowledge was not a defined term, the appellate division used the commonly understood meaning and found that HealthNet failed to establish that the claims were submitted knowing that they were false or misleading as required by the fraud statute.
Importantly for the state's physician community is that the appellate court's decision affirms that providers who waive their right to collect co–insurance do not misrepresent their charges. This opinion affirms the trial court's finding that there is no legal authority barring a provider of healthcare services from waiving their contractual right to collect co-insurance.
According to Larry Downs, MSNJ's General Counsel, "The ruling is important to the state's physician community which wants to remain unencumbered in making decisions relating to waiving co-insurance based on an individual patient's situation." This case demonstrates that the courts, not the insurers, have the final say in the question of fraud and that they will decide by evaluating the evidence before them.
MSNJ and the AMA were represented by David Stone, Esq. formerly of Boies, Schiller & Flexner and now at Stone & Magnanini.

MSNJ ASKS CONGRESS TO SAY "NO" ON TOMORROW'S HEALTHCARE REFORM VOTE
The Medical Society of New Jersey (MSNJ) urges the members of Congress to vote "no" tomorrow on House health reform bill H.R. 3962, The Affordable Health Care for America Act, while supporting H.R. 3961 to ensure the security and stability of Medicare.
"There is just too much left out of the current bill which, if approved, will severely impact the quality and access to care long-term," stated Joseph H. Reichman, MD, President of the Medical Society of New Jersey. "The effect on the practice of medicine and the patients we serve could be devastating."
Of particular concern to New Jersey, which has the lowest Medicaid reimbursement in the country, is the proposed addition of 15 million Americans to the under-funded program. "While it is encouraging to see some effort to adequately fund primary care for those relying on Medicaid, swelling the ranks of beneficiaries in New Jersey will only exacerbate the challenges facing our specialists and the hospitals they work in," Reichman added.
"While MSNJ supports efforts to meaningfully address the broken Medicare funding formula in H.R. 3961, the decoupling of these efforts has led to fears that Congress is prepared to move forward without a permanent Medicare fix," Reichman said. Last week, a similar bill was defeated in the Senate, adding to the unease.
The health reform debate has reached a critical juncture. MSNJ offers the following guidance to patients on what MSNJ considers the essential components for real, lasting, cost effective health reform.
MSNJ calls on Congress to deliver:
Access to affordable health insurance coverage for all, tailored to individual needs and with individual responsibility for obtaining insurance and finding a medical home.
Health insurance market reforms to help patients obtain and keep affordable health insurance and to remedy widely documented abusive insurer practices such as preexisting condition exclusions and denials of medically necessary care.
Changes in antitrust law to promote information sharing and care coordination between doctors and to level the playing field in negotiations with health plans.
Permanent correction of the fatally flawed Medicare physician sustainable growth rate formula which has restricted patient access to care.
Strong and effective medical litigation reforms to reduce the costs of wasteful defensive medicine.
Subsidies for low-income individuals and families to purchase private health insurance, as a means of covering the uninsured and as a market-based alternative to Medicaid expansion.
Health education, prevention and wellness initiatives to improve patients' overall health and reduce long-term costs.
Initiatives and incentives to assure there will be enough physicians trained in the future to care for patients.
Not all reforms are good for patient care. MSNJ stands opposed to:
Government-mandated treatment guidelines that interfere with doctors' clinical decision-making and the doctor-patient relationship.
A government-subsidized "public option" that would unfairly compete in the health insurance market.
A single payor health system. MSNJ believes health system reform should improve and expand upon the current public-private system and focus on incremental, evolutionary change.
Further expansion of Medicaid as a means of covering the uninsured. Given New Jersey's track record of a woefully under-funded Medicaid program, we much prefer subsidies for the private purchase of health insurance by low-income patients.
"While we all support healthcare reform in the United States, we simply can't ignore these important details that could be a detriment to the physician-patient relationship," said Michael T. Kornett, CEO of the Medical Society of New Jersey.

Q: DependencyProperty of collection type in Behavior I am creating a behavior where I need to allow setting a list of some types to a dependency property. To be clear, here is an example:
<SomeUserControl .....>
  <i:Interaction.Behaviors>
    <local:CustomBehavior PropertyA="False">
      <local:CustomBehavior.PropertyBList>
        <x:Type Type="local:TypeA" />
        <x:Type Type="local:TypeB" />
        <x:Type Type="local:TypeC" />
      </local:CustomBehavior.PropertyBList>
    </local:CustomBehavior>
  </i:Interaction.Behaviors>
</SomeUserControl>

As you can see, behavior needs to accept a list of types passed in XAML. The only way that I found to pass a collection of types to a DependencyProperty is to use a DependencyPropertyKey:
private static readonly DependencyPropertyKey PropertyBListPropertyKey =
    DependencyProperty.RegisterReadOnly("PropertyBList", typeof(List<Type>), typeof(CustomBehavior), new PropertyMetadata(new List<Type>()));

public static readonly DependencyProperty PropertyBListProperty = PropertyBListPropertyKey.DependencyProperty;

public List<Type> PropertyBList
{
    get { return (List<Type>)GetValue(PropertyBListProperty); }
}

However, the problem with this approach is that collection is never reset. For example, if I have two UserControls that use CustomBehavior, PropertyBList collection will contain types added on both usercontrols, which means that PropertyBList is acting like a static collection shared between all usercontrols that use this behavior.
How to solve this problem? How to have a dependency property of List<Type> that will be usercontrol instance specific, not shared?

A: The problem is that you initialize the PropertyBList value by a default value in property metadata, which is shared by all instances of CustomBehavior. You could instead initialize the value in a CustomBehavior constructor:
private static readonly DependencyPropertyKey PropertyBListPropertyKey =
    DependencyProperty.RegisterReadOnly(
        "PropertyBList", typeof(List<Type>), typeof(CustomBehavior), null);

public static readonly DependencyProperty PropertyBListProperty =
    PropertyBListPropertyKey.DependencyProperty;

public List<Type> PropertyBList
{
    get { return (List<Type>)GetValue(PropertyBListProperty); }
}

public CustomBehavior()
{
    SetValue(PropertyBListPropertyKey, new List<Type>());
}
