Thika Dam
The Thika dam is a 63 m high, 458 m crest length earthfill dam on the Thika River near Ndakaini, 50 km north of Nairobi, Kenya. The reservoir has a storage capacity of 70 million cubic meters and serves for drinking water supply. Water is treated at the Ngethu treatment works. The dam has increased the reliability of water supply to Nairobi, which suffered water shortages during the dry season before construction of the dam was completed in 1994. The dam has been financed by the African Development Bank, the World Bank, the European Investment Bank and the Kenyan government. Its construction had been delayed because of difficulties in land acquisition, leading to cost overruns. During construction the dam design has been modified to allow it to withstand a 1:10,000-year flood and to improve dam safety.
Wajee Nature Park
Wajee Nature Park is a bird conservancy and nature park in Mukuruwe-ini, central Kenya. It is set between Mount Kenya and the Aberdare Range 160 m north of Nairobi. The park, which covers 10 ha of unspoilt natural forest, was set aside for conservation by Reverend Wajee. It is home to two rare species: the Hinde's babbler and the side-striped jackal.

Vladimir Gherșonovici Drinfeld (în , în ; ) este un matematician american de origine ucraineană specializat în teoria numerelor și geometrie algebrică, laureat cu Medalia Fields în anul 1990.

Biografie
S-a născut în 1956 în Harkiv într-o familie evreiască. Tatăl său, Gherșon Ihelevici, a fost directorul departamentului de matematică din cadrul Universități din Kiev, apoi director adjunct al Institutului de Matematică din Harkiv. S-a dovedit un talent precoce, publicând un articol de matematică încă din copilărie. A câștigat medalia de aur cu nota maximă la Olimpiada Internațională de Matematică din 1969 de la București.

A urmat studiile la Universitatea de Stat din Moscova. A întreprins cercetări în geometrie algebrică sub conducerea lui Iuri Manin, susținându-se teza de doctorat în anul 1978. Nu a putut obține un loc de muncă la universitatea sa urmată, în temeiul originii sale iudaice și în absența unor propiska (viză de reședință) în Moscova. A devenit profesor la Universitatea de Stat din Ufa. În 1981 a mers să locuiască înapoi la părinți și a lucrat la Institutul "B. Verkin" de fizică de temperatură joasă din cadrul Academiei de Științe din Harkiv.

În anul 1992 a fost ales ca membru Academiei de Științe a Ucrainei. În 1998 a emigrat în Statele Unite și a devenit profesor universitar la Universitatea din Chicago, poziție pe care o ocupă în prezent. În 2008 a dobândit cetățenia americană. Împreună cu Alexander Beilinson, organizează Seminarul Langlands.

Lucrări
Lucrările sale acoperă de la teoria numerelor și geometrie algebrică până la multe probleme matematice legate de fizica teoretică. A demonstrat conjectura lui Langlands pentru GL(2) peste corpuri funcțiilor. În acest scop, a introdus a nouă clasă de obiecte matematice, "module eliptice" (acum cunoscute ca module Drinfeld), apoi generalizate ca ștuka-uri (din , "chestie, cutare"). A și formalizat teoria "grupurilor cuantice", o subclasă algebrelor lui Hopf. Pentru aceste rezultate a primit în 1990 cea mai înaltă distincție în matematică, Medalia Fields.

This post is one that was drafted last Wednesday, after my first day in training for my new role!
Today was my first day at my new, customer facing role with an airline that is much closer to home (literally). My new base is Perth airport, and I am absolutely stoked. I' d love to be able to gloat that I had a lovely night's sleep, woke up on time, did some exercise and had a gluten, dairy, fat, carb, refined sugar-free breakfast and off I went. Unfortunately for me, this was not to be the case. I woke up in a cold sweat at 4am, and consequently tossed and turned until my alarm went off at five. After restlessly snoozing for half an hour, I leapt out of bed, into the shower, through a pointless argument about a rogue bun enhancer that had gone MIA, all whilst trying to brush my stubborn, (suddenly long again!) hair into an airline- acceptable ponytail.
I think, that because of my previous adventure in Dubai, I was expecting I drilling over makeup thickness, nail polish colour, lipstick shade and earring diameter from day dot. Needless to say, this was 100% not the case. Phew! After I parked half way to Dubai (or so it felt, the walk from the long term car-park to the terminal is excruciating in new shoes, even unflattering, posture-pedic ones). Once I made my way inside, I instantly felt better. Anxiousness gave way to pure excitement and I had those warm fuzzies that come with the rose coloured glasses of landing a new job. And guess what? They ain't coming off!
Just watching the introductory video, of an iconic part of Aussie history resounding across the world in all of the famous and foreign cities I have visited in the past couple of years really hit home for me (pardon the pun). I was practically fighting back happy little tears! (I know, I am a sook!) It just felt like I was in the right place at the right time, and after somewhat feeling like a very first- world displaced person for quite some time, it was nice to feel a sense of calm and belonging. We were given a tour, security passes, and introduced to every single person that had ever set foot in the airport, Ever. I mean I am good with names but I'm really going to have to lift my game here! After the grand tour we settled in for a day of training. It did't even feel like work! The rest our training holds uniform fittings, dangerous goods an ABP training, manual handling and more online learning "quizzes" than you can poke a stick at. It will basically be like flying, but without the varicose veins, dehydrated skin and dodgy on board catering.
I am sure the view through my rose coloured glasses will inevitably fade, and I won't always feel so sparkly and fresh, but for now it is nice to know that even when the day starts off less than perfect, it can still be salvaged with the right attitude, and by putting yourself in an environment where you feel you can grow.
This doesn't just apply for me personally, or aviation specifically, but for anything in life, I think. If you surround yourself with the right people, you'll soar far. It's taken me a while to figure out who is dangerous goods (hahah) and who is fit to "fly" with me, and I'm still getting there. It's a work in progress, and no person, relationship, job or even Top Dup Donut is perfect.* But I'm happy to be going along for the ride!
Loved the post and so glad to hear that you're training for a new job you're excited about! Good luck with the training, and can't wait to see more posts and pictures soon.

Sometimes some domain name providers don't give us an expiry date within the WHOIS information (looking at you Australia).
Whilst we are looking for ways around this, one of our customers requested the ability to be able to manually put in the renewal dates.
That sounded like a good compromise so we did that.

Automatic Protocol Detection now live!
I know what your thinking… What the hell is automatic protocol detection?
When you added a url to scan with Little Warden you previously had to specify the http:// or https:// protocol for that domain.
Now you can add your google.com and we will do a quick check to see if it responds to https:// or http:// and add the appropriate one.
You can of course still add http:// or https:// to ensure to the correct one is checked.


How do Daphnia tolerate hot temperatures?
Aquatic ectotherms experience disjoint between oxygen availability and respiratory needs at high temperatures, because O2 solubility in water decreases, while metabolic demands increase with temperature. We hypothesize, based on O2 consumption and lipid composition data, that this limit is set by inability of mitochondria to maintain proton potential and propose to directly measure this in vivo using fluorescent microscopy.
High temperature is a common stressor and a common selective pressure in nature. In a model organism Daphnia, a freshwater zooplankton crustacean this manifests in latitudinal clines of heat tolerance , indicating local adaptation. Organisms, including Daphnia can also show plastic response to heat, adjusting their physiology and biochemistry to allow higher heat tolerance [2, 3]. There is evidence that such acclimation is related to respiration [1, 3] and lipid composition , but no in-vivo experiments confirming this have yet been conducted. Rhodamine 123 is a commonly used fluorescent dye that targets mitochondria; accumulating up to 4000x in intact mitochondria it exhibits quenching and red shift, resulting in lower green fluorescence. It has not yet been used in-vivo.
Daphnia is both a classic model organism in ecological physiology and an emerging model for ecological genomics. One of the key goals of ecological genomics today is to understand selective and plastic responses to changing environments, such as elevated temperatures. A protocol for in-vivo quantification of mitochondrial function in Daphnia will therefore be useful for a range of environmental, physiological and genomics studies. Testing the central hypothesis of the project - that higher heat tolerance in heat-acclimated Daphnia is achieved by their greater ability to sustain respiration at elevated temperatures - will be a milestone in the research aiming to understand ecological physiology of thermal acclimation and adaptation in a model crustacean.
Goal 1 of the project is to develop an in-vivo fluorescent microscopy protocol to quantify mitochondrial membrane integrity in Daphnia, using rhodamine 123 fluorophore that is known to target mitochondria and detect mitochondrial dysfunction .
Goal 2 is to use this protocol to test the hypothesis that higher heat tolerance in heat-acclimated Daphnia is caused by the ability to sustain mitochondrial functions longer. The experiment will include untreated high- and low temperature-acclimated controls, heat-treated individuals and individuals treated with a sublethal concentration of mito-toxin as positive controls.
We have all necessary equipment and materials for the proposed experiment, but the necessary set of filters for fluorescent microscopy we have been using during the feasibility stage of the project is a loaner and we have to either pay for it or return it to the manufacturer. This is filter with excitation and emission wavelength that allow visualization and measurement of fluorescence intensity of rhodamine 123 dye that selectively accumulates in mitochondria matrix (resulting in fluorescence quenching and red shift), as long as mitochondria maintain membrane potential.
We will validate direct in vivo measurements of membrane potential using Promega Mitochondrial ToxGlo™ and Lactate Glo™ Assays that measure ATP production and anaerobic respiration levels.
The funds for the ToxGlo Assay are for a single-use kit. The funds for the fluorescence filter cube will support a long-lasting piece of equipment to be used by several labs in a variety of studies.
This is a very important problem. With increasing temperatures on our planet we need to understand what determines the upper limits of temperature tolerance. Daphnia is a perfect model organism for this type of research.
Understanding how organisms will respond to increasing thermal environments is a critical issue for modern biologists. We know that populations of Daphnia vary in their thermal tolerance, but we lack a mechanistic understanding of how some populations are able to deal with much higher temperatures than others. This exciting project will provide important insights into the underlying mechanisms of thermal tolerance.
I like this project a lot. It asks an important question in animal ecophysiology, and the experiments to answer it are well-designed. Dr. Yampolsky is eminently qualified to perform this study in his lab.
We are already on the way to achieving Goal 1 - see video showing live Daphnia neonate (left) and an individual treated with a mito-toxin CCCP (right), showing much higher fluorescence in the treated individual. We should complete this step by March 2018. Pilot experiments towards Goal 2 will be conducted in March-April 2018; the main experiment is planned for May-July 2018. Respiration rate and in-vitro mitochondrial function quantification experiments July-September 2018.

Can we have a Mr Smith in all of our wards?
Labour have lost the plot, the new Commissioners are even worse than Stone.
UKIP support the new increased salaries for the new senior officers, vote for Green or for an Independent .
Time for change, get out there and vote!
Ukipactivist on April 12, 2015 at 6:32 pm said:
Is Dave trying to slip under the UKIP radar with a purple poster and as usual he can't resist having a pop at UKIP. Why can't Dave stand on his policies, rather than slagging off the opposition.
Part of a healthy debate is pointing out the inadequacies of the opposition, and remember what Jay and Casey said, The opposition, UKIP, fail in scrutiny of the ruling Labour Party. Hence CSE. He has shown, on numerous occasions , especially in Anston to be doing a good job representing the public.

Anonymous UKIP were given no positions on any committee by labour because labour want to be the ones who call the shots why could they not work with UKIP for the benefit of us all
UKIP activist on April 12, 2015 at 6:59 pm said:
But if Dave's policies were that good, he would be able to just stick to the policies. I won't vote for anybody who supports welfare dependency, I believe in people learning to fish and not being given fish. As for UKIP resisting Rotherham council, if they have only a third of the ward council members, Labour can just ignore them. That won't be the case when they have another 10 ward council members.
Some Time, at some point in our life's, some of us will need a little help. That's what makes for a decent society. Bleating about lack of numbers on the council, is no excuse for challenging council decisions, or in Rotherham case inaction over CSE. You fail, like the incumbents. Admit your failures and do a better job next time.
Robin Symonds on April 12, 2015 at 7:12 pm said:
Another 10 would give UKIP 19 councillors. Labour would still be able to ignore them. If Labour retain at least 32 seats then they can still ignore the opposition if they wish. UKIP have proved to be ineffectual as an opposition and I can't see that changing. It would be interesting to see how they'd fare if they were to become the ruling group.
Cliff Topp on April 12, 2015 at 7:23 pm said:
You must be reading a different leaflet to the rest of us, at no point does Mr Smith state he supports Welfare Dependency, he does, however, state that he believes in The Welfare State… On the recent announcement of the possible wage increase UKIP are feeling "uncomfortable with it", where's the shouting it down..? The UKIP Candidate has never attended a Council Meeting in his capacity as a member of the public whereas Mr Smith has, on numerous occasions, and Mr Smith is within his rights to point this out as it shows that Mr Smith has a proven track record in asking questions of the Council… Coincidentally, the UKIP candidate in Dinnington has not attended any Town Council meetings as a member of the public either. UKIP are also making much of the fact that they dont have a Party Whip to follow like the Labour Party but my opinion is that will change if there are more UKIP Councillors…
Robin Symonds. Yes you are right, because I can't see UKIP winning 20 seats to tip the balance. We will have to wait until next year. Cliff Top. I believe in companies paying a living wage of £10 a hour, but then I would get rid of the tax credits and all the other stupid benefits that top up people's incomes. I would hammer any company that evades paying their fair share of tax to this country, it isn't the governments duty to subsidise living standards. I agree that we should help people going through a rough patch, but some people choose to play on this all their life's. Sometimes it is what people don't say on a flyer, that the public need to be aware of. As for following party dogma, I would get rid of the Monarchy, which goes against UKIP.
From what I see Mr Smith is the only one standing up for the electorate, UKIP have been found wanting over the pay of the new RMBC senior officers.
UKIP in Rotherham are in the same camp as Stone, then what do you you expect from a UKIP leader from a banking background.
Vote Green, or if you have the chance vote Smith!
Vote Greens and get ISIS according to Natalie Bennett. Is Natalie Bennett even a British citizen, I have no evidence she is one. As for the Greens, they would invite in even more uncontrolled immigration and build over the country.
As oppose to UKIP who would have a flood of immigration, as they don't seem to have a coherent policy on the subject. Is it no immigration at all, the Australian system or 50,000 per year.
The policy is quite clear. The ceiling for immigration is 50K a year, but due to the points style, the number of people applying and being successful would be between 25K to 50K. We can't control net migration, because we can't control the number of people leaving the country, but we can control the number coming in. I believe the country is too over crowded, so if we have more going out than coming in, I won't be disappointed.

Think you are straying from the point of this post. There are many UKIP leaflet posts for this interminable argument to be rehearsed ad nauseam on.
Your arguments are pure fantasy, you must realise that.

And so it happens.
Independents attack UKIP, UKIP attack the Greens etc etc and the really dangerous people sit on the side lines laughing while the only opposition we've had in Rotherham for generations rip into each other.
Disagreement is fine, discussing policies is fine but lets not forget who created the real problems in Rotherham!
Yes the real culprits are those political classes, whether Labour, UKIP or other parties, the apathetic public, Council Officers , Social Workers, Voluntary sector and the now discredited SYP, who for various reasons turned a blind eye to unspeakable evil. On May 7th, perhaps the town will get a fresh start, somehow I doubt it.

The UKIP candidate has just been confirmed as a candidate, so why should he attend the Dave Smith circus of Dinnington. When was the last performance???.
And Dave, if the UKIP councillors haven't done enough in the past few month since the Casey report came out, how the hell are you going to change things at Rotherham on your own?
An independent councillor will not asked to join any committees, you may have your say, but in Robin Symonds own admission, Labour will ignore you. The problems with Rotherham lay at Labours door.
There is also a Conservative and green candidate for Dinnington, why no attack on those Mr Smith???. Maybe no competition for you? I do believe that conservatives have been on RMBC for some time. A lot longer than UKIP.

I am the Independent candidate for Hellaby. I will just it out there that I would happily work with Dave if we were both elected. He has the policies that people want, that are clear and concise, rather than the ever changing (yet constantly bigoted) policies of UKIP.
If you are putting out any campaigning literature, would love to have it, so that readers some of whom may well be Hellaby voters. can see it?
I will pop you an e-mail over shortly with the leaflet 🙂

Definition of a bigot: a person who strongly and unfairly dislikes other people, ideas, etc. : a bigoted person; especially : a person who hates or refuses to accept the members of a particular group ….. Do you and Dave Smith strongly and fairly like the labour councillors of Rotherham?????. Pot and Kettle springs to mind.
I strongly dislike Labour and UKIP. But not for an unfair reason. The reason I dislike Labour should be obvious for what they did in Rotherham. In terms of UKIP. Remember what Thatcher did to South Yorkshire & the North? Why would I vote a Thatcherite party? Whose candidates are regularly in trouble in the press for being racist/xenophobic, homophobic, elitist/classist (come on, Nigel Farage the ex-Wall Street investment banker is any different to the rest of em, really?), or just in general down right nasty. What even are their policies? It's especially sad to see candidates on a local level shouting and balling about immigration and the EU, as though they can do anything about it on a local council. It's political point scoring. It's a joke. "This is my truth, tell me yours"… Now tell me what's wrong with my policies.

That's great, I would never vote Labour either. What's your point? I still can't find any criticism of my policies, yet there's plenty to criticise the rest of them on.
Titan on April 14, 2015 at 6:10 am said:
Weren't you removed from maltby town council for non attendance at meetings?
That's correct, I was working full time to sustain myself during my run as a town councillor, and never able to get time off during meetings. Employment law gives no legal right to time off. I am not working and if elected as a borough councillor this would be my full time work. I do not have this issue next time round.

Robin thank you for confirming Labours attitude They will ignore any opposition not willing to work with them to work for a better Rotherham
Still in Denial and still same old attitude that got Rotherham in the mess it is in and now totally unfit for purpose
They have proved with out doubt they are totally incapable of Running the Council
Only Running it into total disrepute and into the ground
The only question here would be are we replacing one bunch of power hungry incompetents with another?
The simple answer is… Do you want the power hungry incompetents that we know so well, or do you want someone we don't know??
I personally would prefer the latter. Give them a go, they may just come good.

I and a vast majority of people who voted for UKIP in the last local elections in Rotherham are most likely to be from a mining background, so to be called a thatcherite would be a bloody insult. As for being a racist, I laugh at this insult too, I have friends from all over the world, of different cultures and creeds. It is time the racist card was ripped up. If you or anyone on here can prove to me that what has happened in Rotherham regarding the raping of our poor young girls was not carried out by a particular race. Then you MR INDEPENDANT call me an effing racist……..Because, that I am not……..That could have been my daughter/grand-daughters. Or even yours.
I've not heard Farage renounce Thatcherism, so Coverup, whilst you may not regard yourself a Thatcherite, you are voting for a party whose leader clearly is! http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/politics/4887287/ukips-nigel-farage-Im-the-only-politician-keeping-thatcherism-alive.html
Waiting for that. Knew this was coming Robin Symonds….You and all the Labour voters are voting for a party that allowed our children to be brutally raped and trafficked and did nothing to protect them. you are a disgrace.
Thank you for putting words in to my mouth without providing any criticism of my policies. You can't win an argument like that.
Child sexual exploitation was indeed predominantly carried out by Asian/Muslim gangs. However, this does not mean every member of the Muslim community is a rapist or a paedophile. Look at Operation Yew Tree. All those WHITE men involved in exploiting young girls. Does that make every white person a rapist? No, it doesn't.
I never called you racist. I said you're voting a racist, xenophobic, nasty little Thatcherite party. Think before you open your mouth perhaps. I may sound arrogant but it's better than being ignorant. I'm talking sense and you're spouting rubbish. If you were indeed from a mining background, unless you were a scab, you wouldn't vote for Thatcher. So why vote for a man who wants to keep the flame of Thatcherism alive? I don't expect you to answer my questions or provide a decent argument back, but you can have points for trying.
Coverup, do you consider every person who votes Labour in Rotherham to be "a disgrace"?
I indeed was a miner in two strikes, as were my father and his father. neither of us were scabs. But I don't think even the men that went back to work would want to be called thatcherites either, as she ruined they're lives too. The CSE in Rotherham was carried out by Pakistani heritage men. And no, not all Pakistani men were involved, and I think Nigel Farage would agree with me. Is this Racist????. The comments he made were some years ago. I wanted to kill my ex-wife some time ago, I've changed my mind now.
And as for voting for a racist, xenophobic, nasty little Thatcherite party.
Ten borough councillors got voted in by people like me last year.
Think on young man, because the people of Hellaby read this blog!!!
While I agree with you that not every Pakistani/Muslim in Rotherham is a rapist, and by the same token not every White men, because of Operation Yewtree. What happen in Rotherham and other towns was truly unique, as it was predominately the systematic targeting of young white girls, by another Race and Culture. The fact that this was over a considerable period of time and nobody and I mean nobody did anything to stop, in fact they tried to cover it up, was a total disgrace. The argument that because other races and cultures, may have been involved in similar outrages, no way excuse these heinous behaviour. There is a problem within this community which needs to be tackle and apologists, which there are many, not only do themselves a disservice , but hinder any meaningful attempts at the Pakistani/Muslims from dealing with their shame.

I'm not directly talking about Thatcher. I'm talking about the havoc she caused here which has left South Yorkshire still to this day the 5th poorest area in Northern Europe, and Rotherham itself is one of the most deprived districts in the UK. So as her legacy lives on, why would you vote for someone who is a Thatcherite, when the effects of her policies still linger after all this time? That's my argument.
Your comment is a sad reflection of how many people decide to vote now. Personalities, not policies. If I posed for a photograph with a fag and a pint in my hand would you vote for me then? The mind boggles..

Titan: Yes, he was removed from Maltby town council for not attending, so Shaun, I don't think Dave Smith will be happy, he doesn't like non attendees!
I've responded above, but what I will add also is, I still regularly held stalls in my spare time, giving out help and information on those affected by austerity measures and the bedroom tax; infact I formed a community group, "Maltby Against the Bedroom Tax" and held several meetings where certain Labour councillors took it upon themselves to arrive in a drunken stupor and cause trouble. I attended when and where possible, it is alright for the other lot who are born into money or have it, they don't need to work. I was an 18 year old lad from a working class background who had to work to sustain myself, I have no automatic right to time off as a councillor. I think that's an adequate response. Don't you?
Robin Symonds, if you think I am going to say " no, I don't think every person in Rotherham who vote labour this year are a disgrace", then I am sorry to dis-appoint you, because I couldn't bring myself to say it, knowing that this disgraceful band in Town Hall allowed it to go on for so long and then covered it up for fear of being called racist. Our children should have come before any other thing on Gods earth. They were let down horribly by Labour. If they are elected back in power on may the 7th 2015. Then Rotherham, you've got what you deserve.
Is that a yes then?
If Shaun does not have enthusiasm and arrogance as a young person when will he. He is entitled to be both at his age. Good luck Shaun

Q: Count predicate, how does it work? With a linq query I retrieve a list from the database. The list contains 2 items of a specific class containing the property RoleType. the type of RoleType is an int.
the first object has a property value 0.
the second object has a property value 1.
I also got an enum:
enum RoleTypes
{
    Type1 = 1,
    Type2 = 0,
}

The weird order of indexing the enums is a given, I can't change that.
My business rules states that there has to be exactly one role with RoleType value Type2 and at least one role with RoleType value Type1. This is the code I use for that:
var ExactlyOneRoleType2 = roles.Count(role => role.RoleType == (int)RoleTypes.Type2) == 1;
var AtLeastOneRoleType1 = roles.Any(role => role.RoleType == (int)RoleTypes.Type1);

According to the list I mentioned earlier, both variables (ExactlyOneRoleType2 and AtLeastOneRoleType1) should be true. At least, I would expect that. Only if I debug through the code I found out that ExactlyOneRoleType2 is false. After some research I find out that
roles.Count(role => role.RoleType == (int)RoleTypes.Type2)

returns 2 instead of 1 which I find odd because there is only 1 role with RoleType Type2. Why does the count return 2? It also doesn't compute with the fact that the Any call actually returns true. How can list containing 2 items have both 2 items with RoleType Type2 and have at least one item with RoleType Type1?
Also when I change the count call to
roles.Count(role => role.RoleType == 0)

it still returns 2. Only when I change the Count call to this:
private static bool IsRoleTypeType2(Role role)
{
    return role.RoleType == (int)RoleTypes.Type2;
}

roles.Count(IsRoleTypeType2)

the count returns 1 as it should be.
What is happening here? Why does the count return 2 when I use a anonymous predicate? Did I misunderstood something about how the predicate works in case of count? Or is this is bug in Linq?

Q: How to add password protection to already created LINQ to SQL Database I'm using LINQ to SQL Database in Windows Phone 8.1 developmentand using below connection string:
public class MyAppDBContext : DataContext
{
   public static string ConnectionString = "Data Source=isostore:/MyAppDB.sdf";
   public MyAppDBContext() : base(ConnectionString) { }

   //Standart DBContext Code
   ...
}

As you can see there is no password protection. I'm looking for a solution to add password to current database. After a long research i saw this on MSDN

You cannot encrypt a database after it has been created.

This is a live app on the store and there are thousands of users already downloaded. Planning to add OneDrive backup option and don't want to upload the DB to user's OneDrive without encrpyting the database. This is very important feature and i'm unable to add this feature without protecting the DB. Any idea mighty StackOVerFlow masters?

A: If you are only worried about the backup, you could use some kind of encrypted container like a .zip file and password protect that instead of the database.

Q:  inside an image alt attribute? (using UniteGallery which diplays "alt" as the image title) I'm not good enough in JavaScript/jQuery to make my own gallery or modify an existing one. I'm using UniteGallery script which provide a nice looking tiles style gallery.
The problem is that I wanted a link to be displayed when the image is zoomed. And the only diplayed text when the image is clicked on, is the alt attribute.
So I'm wondering if I can put an  tag inside the alt attribute of the image. I know it's not what alt attribute should be for, but W3C validator doesn't seem to mind about that.
<img alt="Image 1 Title More"
src="img/gallery/thumbs/image1.png" data-image="img/gallery/image1HD.png" data-description="Image 1 Description"/>

Do you think that's ok? (I don't even know what the data-description is used for in unitegallery.) If you got any other solution, I'll be glad to read it.

A while ago I first heard about the Thummer, an expressive midi controller which is using the wonderfull Wicki button layout. Sadly the development of the Thummer didn't make it, but my interest in isomorphic button layouts was born.
One lucky extra feature of the Wicki layout is that is fits very good on a normal computer keyboard. There are a number of ways to use this, most notably the synthesizer 2032, which runs well under Linux through Wine. Another option is vkeybd using a wicki keymap (save in your homedir as .vkeybdmap) using another synthesizer.
There are various flash apps online where you can try this. However, flash has a very limited sound support. Since Flash 10 this has been improved, but after a promising beta the final version has very bad latency.
Have fun playing and don't hesitate to send a message!


Well after all that rain on Wednesday and having G'daughters too, I definitely needed a different sort of challenge. I'd seen a picture in a magazine recently of a foot stool/ box made from an old wooden fruit box. I happen to collect old wooden boxes most of which hold clay pots in my summer house. One though had been languishing at the back of said summer house getting damp and cobweby. Out it came with a quick brush down and a dry off in the greenhouse. I had some fabric left from a bag I made a while back, the foam came out of a pillow I was throwing away, so really it cost me 80 pence for the hinges…..not bad eh….
It's a very wet day. Just right for another project.In the mean time a few pictures to enjoy.

Q: Regular Expressions and languages of alphabets with substring Right now I'm learning for a test in cs and I have my problems with regular expressions. Here is example of a question I don't understand.
We have a given alphabet Σ = {0, 1} and L1. L1 represent any word with odd number of 0(zeros) and exactly twice 1 (ones).
The prof. showed us an example how the solution should look like:
Σ = {a, b} with L1.
L1 represents any Word in which the sub-words aa or bb occurs.
L1 = (a ∪ b)*  (aa ∪ bb)*  (a ∪ b)*
thank you for your help

A: Try this:
(?mx)
^
(?=0*10*10*$) # check if the word consists of only 0s and exactly two 1s
(?:..){1,}.   # check if the word length is odd

Did Any Disney Executives Actually Watch Tim Burton's Dumbo?
6 Comments on Did Any Disney Executives Actually Watch Tim Burton's Dumbo?
I write the following as someone who did once own a stuffed animal version of Dumbo, the adorable elephant with ears so big they flap like wings.
The original 1941 Dumbo is barely over an hour long and was created as a streamlined, low-budget affair meant to stop the bleeding at Disney after several years of box office bombs. The gambit worked: Dumbo became just the second Disney film to turn a profit, with the first being Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.
It didn't, however, come without a fight. First of all, Disney's employees went on strike during the production of the film. Then, once Dumbo was delivered to Disney's distributor, RKO Pictures, it was almost denied a release. The executives preferred to either cut the 64-minute film down into a short, add more footage to expand it into a true full-length feature or release it as a B-movie packaged with something longer. Walt stood his ground, rightfully so.
Audiences of the era, desperate for an escape from the onslaught of WWII, ate it up. In the ensuing decades, grandparents and parents everywhere learned Dumbo – though a perfectly lovely movie – is maybe not the best Disney classic to pick if the larger goal is to simply find something that will distract the kids for at least 80-90 minutes.
That means Tim Burton and screenwriter Ehren Kruger inherited a project so inherently short on story even the film executives of 1941 objected. The RKO people eventually relented, of course, but Burton and Kruger – faced with updating the material to 2019 audiences and adapting it to a live-action setting – don't have that luxury.
As a result, this is a very different Dumbo movie than the ones some might have grown up on. The basic story of a young, malformed circus elephant turning his abnormality into a superpower is here, but it has now been condensed into the first half of the story. The rest is almost entirely a pure Burton/Kruger creation and their section of the film gets surprisingly thinkpiecy, with Dumbo and his human friends ending up in a funhouse Disneyland lorded over by an outwardly genial, secretly ruthless taskmaster (Michael Keaton). The pink elephants parade, alright, but this time to the tune of cash registers popping for every Dumbo doll sold.
I can't believe Disney made a movie about a large entertainment company buying out another one for their IP with the intention to merchandise the property, kill the elements that make it special, and terminate the majority of the staff.
As I said at the start, I am someone who once had a stuffed Dumbo. Leave it to Tim Burton to make me feel kind of weird about that. Because not only does this new Dumbo shine a critical light on the dog-eat-dog nature of capitalism and inevitable commodification of entertainment – it also goes full Blackfish and swerves into a commentary on the ethics of keeping captive animals for our amusement.
Damn. Dumbo is so woke now. Didn't see that coming. And I have yet to even mention Dumbo's new friend Milly (Nico Parker, Thandie Newton's daughter making her film debut), a mixed race little girl with STEM job aspirations.
Yeah, but where are the emotions?
All of that makes the new Dumbo an easily more thoughtful film than its 1941 predecessor, but with all of these added layers of commentary is there room left over for any real heart? We are meant to applaud when Dumbo flies for the first time and cry for him to eventually rejoin his mother, who is sold away after a disastrous circus performance results in her stampeding to protect her baby boy.
With the help of new human friends the Farrier family – newly returned WWI vet dad Holt (Colin Farrell), still-trying-to-find-his-niche son Joe (Finley Hobbins), and daughter Milly – as well as empathetic fellow circus performers (led by ringmaster Danny DeVito), surely Dumbo will prevail, but when he does will we actually feel the emotion of it?
Most critics say no. Among Disney's recent live-action remakes or "reimaginings", the new Dumbo currently has the lowest RottenTomatoes score (51%) since…well, Tim Burton's 2010 3D acid trip take on Alice in Wonderland. That film prospered at the box office regardless of quality. Early signs indicate Dumbo won't be nearly as fortunate, and the consistent criticism among all the detractors is the film's lack of an authentic core.
Something. Something. Tim Burton's overrated.
Tim Burton, the argument goes, has made so many odes to outsiders at this point that he doesn't even seem to feel the emotions of it anymore. He's just going through the motions, a painter who lost his motivation years ago.
Normally, I would agree with that argument, yet this Dumbo strikes me as Burton's most genuinely heartfelt work since 2012's Frankenweenie. Visually, this is him in his slightly more restrained Big Fish/Big Eyes mode, meaning not everything has to be so gothic or draped in blacks, reds, and whites. It's still Burton, of course, and his knack for the fantastical is on full display during the circus sequences, especially the aforementioned pink elephants on parade, but he doesn't overwhelm the story with visuals.
That's a bit of an ironic statement to make, however, about a movie whose title character is entirely CGI. Yet, the animal CGI work – so perfected on Jungle Book and further refined here – turns Dumbo in an easily believable character with surprisingly soulful, big eyes.
Moreover, even with all its baked-in layers of social commentary, the script still ultimately tells a simple story about an elephant trying to reunite with his mother and the friends, a group that eventually includes Eva Green's French trapeze artist, who help him on that journey. By the time the grand finale arrives, there are probably one too many narrative plates still spinning in the air, but I was happy to go on the journey.
Afterward, I kind of wanted to buy a new Dumbo doll. Then I felt utterly conflicted. Then I wondered if any highers-up at Disney even watched this movie. If so, did they see themselves more in DeVito's ringmaster instead of Keaton's? And did they just completely miss the parallels between the film's plot and what Disney is currently doing to Fox?
That's certainly a more complex set of reactions than I expected to have from Dumbo. What I expected was to feel sympathy for an outsider. On that point, mission accomplished. Everything else is a delightful bonus.
For now, however, it's a perfectly pleasant update on a franchise Walt once streamlined as a low-budget, save-the-studio hit. As was true then, the same applies now – if that cute little elephant can turn his abnormality into a superpower, why can't we too…except, ya know, metaphorically.
I will never feel bad about my Dumbo Plushie. NEVER!!!!
Honestly, this is the first time that I am kind of curious about the movie. But I hear there is no proper pink elephant scene so…yeah.
I should clarify there IS a pink elephant scene of sorts. It's actually a kind of confusing POV sequence where you're not sure if the animals on parade Dumbo see are real or exaggerations of his mind/imagination. There's definitely something cool happening that he's looking at, but it borders into almost magical territory.
I am sure it will be available on the internet as separate clip at one point. I doubt though that it comes even close to the original scene.
Thanks for reading. Dumbo is about to get crushed under April's onslaught of new movies. It's probably a movie a great majority will end up seeing on Disney+ at the end of the year instead of right now in theaters, but regardless of when you do it the film's certainly worth watching.

WoLF Water Structuring is an advanced quantum process way beyond filtering.
Water structuring energizes water while erasing its polluted memory and reprogramming it. Known processes emulating nature change how the water molecules cluster together. Coherent energy, information and quantum vectors powerfully impact water's properties and behavior. It is a radical breakthrough in creating truly healthy water. Water can become Information Medicine.
Until now, you've probably heard nothing about water structuring. So it's about time you do. The water you drink everyday is more influential to your health than previously realized. Science reveals a myriad of properties about water that are powerfully linked to biologic information processes of your body. Water filtering alone still leaves behind an informational memory of chemical pollutants.
TRUE quantum water structuring is needed to fully erase old polluted memories and install vitalized and coherent life supporting code.
Water has memory and can hold vast energy.
This alone should raise your eyebrows.
nature of water and what it means to you personally.
Water molecules are among the smallest. We can see how water molecules join together as groups. These are called Clusters. Scientists found that these Clusters work as memory cells of a certain sort in which water records its whole history of its relationship with the world; as if on magnetic tape. Water of course remains water. But its structure, like a nervous system, reacts to any irritation. Modern instruments have made it possible to record the fact that, within each of waters memory cells, there are 440,000 Information Panels. Each of which is responsible for its own type of interaction with the environment. If you consider a Water Cluster as a group of specific molecules, then it can survive only a short amount of time. But if you consider it as a structure whereby molecules can leave and other molecules come in, the Water Cluster can last effectively for a very long time.
– from the "Water-The Great Mystery" movie.
The idea that water has a memory changes our whole way of looking at the world.
Thus the world's oceans will no longer be something that separates us. Instead, it's a giant storehouse of information. And the rain could be a data medium carrying information to the rest of the world.
when is it a positive, life affirming structure?
Water can be structured and charged either positively or less so, by all forms of energy and information. There is nothing more sensitive to this programming process then water itself. Remember this, because you are made up of 99% water molecules!
Negative Programming of Water – cluster structure happens by polluting influences that destabilize the water, lower its level of energetics and corrupts water memory.
Positive Programming of Water – creates coherent structure that stabilizes and makes the water's energetics more active. Water is free of polluting information and is charged with vital life affirming, encoded memory.
Since just about ANYTHING can have an affect on water, then in some way, everything is structuring the water as well. Water is the only substance found to be sensitive to the entire frequency band of energy. It has been found that human intent and emotion have the strongest effect upon water structuring. Positive emotions projected toward water increases the waters energy and stabilizes the water. When water is energized and stable, it is in a Life Affirming structure. Negative emotions projected towards water reduce the water's energy and creates radical changes in the water. Keep that in mind because your body can structure its water with your mental and emotional patterning. Your body naturally structures its water according to cellular needs. A few ways it does this is through Colloidal processes, natural EM field influence and channeling singular water molecules through portals in the membrane of the cell called Aquaporin. It appears that Aquaporin are also a built in system that biology uses to remove unwanted water memory in order to deliver virgin water to the inside of the cell. Then, the cell does its own programming with various processes. It is estimated that your body produces roughly 36 different kinds of recognized body fluids containing water to meet it's needs. And each will have its own programming. In humans, there are about 200 different types of cells, and within these cells there are about 20 different types of structures or organelles. It makes sense then that the biology wants to do its own information process programming.
If the body cell does its own water filtering and memory programming, then why do we need coherent structured memory water?
To be honest, we don't know if science has answered that question very well yet. But Pillar of Light has a well educated, best guess theory based on research and what science DOES know so far.
WHAT DOES SCIENCE KNOW ABOUT HOW BIOLOGY LETS WATER AND ITS MEMORY INTO THE CELL ?
Science does know that water has at least 2 razor edge balanced quantum mechanics actions in its behavior, especially when confined in "cell-like" environments.
Quantum water behavior does exhibit teleportation and entanglement aspects. This enables quantum connections beyond space-time constraints. These attributes allow the transfer of water memory in CD or Coherence Domains.
A 4th phase of water called EZ Water forms within cell structures with hydrophilic surfaces. This water builds electrical charge mainly by Infrared light penetrating into the body that increases cell energy and supports informational processes. Our bodies water can generate energy from the sun for the cells.
Luc Montagnier and other water and quantum biology researchers have repeatedly shown that water does have an informational memory that can be projected from one sample to others with no direct connection using Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) pulses – such as Schumann Resonance – to help catalyze the information exchange process; whether it be electromagnetic transfer, coherent quantum domain information transfer or both.
We know that AQUAPORIN (specific protein channels in a cell's membrane) almost exclusively, let water molecules through the cell membrane 1 at a time ONLY. Thus, no large water clusters will enter the cell regardless of their programming. Plus, the Aquaporin flips the charge of that 1 water molecule back and forth repeatedly removing any former charge it may have had.
Aquaporin do not allow large water clusters through the cell membrane. Water gets through the cell's membrane and into the interior literally 1 molecule at a time. Sometimes, the channel is 3.5 angstroms in size when the water molecule itself is 3 angstroms. That molecule has its former charge undone. So the old theory that smaller, more coherent water clusters with memory, made it into the cell easier, was pointing to an incorrect mechanism for memory transfer. Former researchers believed a smaller "structured" water cluster increased cellular water absorption. But they did not yet know about Aquaporin and how they work and how water really enters into the cell. While they were headed in a good direction with water memory, they missed the boat on the actual mechanisms of transfer into cellular water. This is oversimplified of course. For more on the subject, here is a Wikipedia Link for Aquaporin. Unfortunately, most medical science talk on how water enters through the Aquaporin is still minus the recognition of water's memory capability. But it's slowly coming to light.
Since Aquaporin will remove all water memory as it does not allow clusters through, the water that does enter into the cell is virgin and without memory or former charge or ionic states. The cell has pristine H2O for its use. And your bodies own, innate informational and programming processes will program the cell water as needed.
So in this fashion, biology has its own built-in mechanism to remove weaker informational programming codes and unwanted water states.
IF THIS IS TRUE, HOW THEN DOES THE MEMORY OF OUTSIDE WATER STILL GET INTO THE INSIDE OF THE CELL?
Stronger information programmed into water clusters on the outside project its code at the informational level directly into the cell and, in a sense, re-infects or re-codes the intercellular water. This may happen on various levels as mentioned. EM energy waves, sound vibration, quantum fields as quantum teleportation and more, may all play a role in this quantum "action at a distance" memory transfer. It does not matter if the strong memory code is positive or negative. As long as it's strong in some regard, it gets through. It doesn't seem to matter if it is either a coherent, stabalizing and life affirming code or whether it is a destabalizing code. This may be how people can be poisoned by strongly negative water or be informationally healed by strongly coherent and positive water.
This process is the body's way to take care of or … "not sweat the small stuff" but at the same time, allow for more coherent informational signals to still work and affect biologic signaling. If there is something positive or negative outside the cell that the inside of the cell resonates with; (perhaps in quantum entanglement terms) then the strong outer code will be taken on by the intercellular water. This fits right in with epigenetic processes as well that say that biology information is powerfully influenced by the belief systems of the organism's brain. In other words, we attract more of what we focus upon; positive or negative.
Therefore, this puts an emphasis on COHERENCE. And hopefully, a positive coherence for the water memory and energy transmission. Coherence can be more related to the type of memory stored verses the type of water cluster structuring on the physical level. Perhaps more research should be making deeper introspection at the information level in addition to the physics or quantum physics perspective.
Is Lymph fluid 4th Phase Water?
In a recent study, scientists said the following – "It seems that the lymphatic vessels extended to the brain after all." And Aquaporin are involved in this research. Science most often looks to manipulate biology with chemicals and drugs. They look at changing the behavior of Aquaporin with the same. But what if they looked at using information instead of drugs to make corrections and resets to faulty biologic functions? That would be Information Medicine.
Keep your body, thoughts and beliefs healthy and your bodies water memory and structures will be healthier too.
The WoLF quantum structured water is more coherently charged and energized than any other artificially created healthy water. It also does the best erasing of potentially negative programming and then installs the most coherent and life supportive code. It can also be used to create CUSTOM programmed water as your personal Information Medicine. This level of positive water memory programming strength and coherence may go far beyond what our biology can make for itself. And certainly, it reduces most of the biologic stress to the body. Other water sources leave negative programming influences in the water that drain the body of vital energy and supportive life code.


Calling with my Google Voice number?
Is it possible to call through my Google Voice number?
Say Ooma's number is: 111-1111, and my Google Voice number is 222-2222.
Google Voice is set up so that if someone calls 222-2222, it forwards to my cell phone, as well as my Ooma's number (111-1111). My cell phone is set up (using Google Voice app) to call anyone while showing the 222-2222 number (for example, if I call my friends with my cell phone, they will see 222-2222 instead of my real cell phone number).
Is it possible to do this with Ooma/home phones? I want to be able to hide my number (111-1111), and let the caller ID show 222-2222 to whomever I call.
Re: Calling with my Google Voice number?
Not possible automatically as far as I know but according to early reports it will be as part of the Google Voice Extensions which when released will require Premier. Not sure of the timeframe.
There is a workaround. Since your ooma number is set up in your GV account, from your ooma phone, call your GV number. It will answer with an announcement regarding new messages and have you press 2 if you want to make a call. Press the 2, then dial the 10 digit number followed by the # button. That will ring the persons phone and display your GV number. The CNAM will be unavailable, but your ooma number will be hidden. You could set up a speed dial to call the GV number but the rest will be manual. Hope this helps.
Actually you can set up a speed dial if you have a modern phone system by inserting a PAUSE and saving it.
Just takes a little extra time to dial and connect but it works!

I have been detoxing or withdrawing for almost 2 weeks. Tapered off 4 mgs a day over the past year. I'm wondering how long the withdrawing symptoms will continue at this level. How can I help it?
Sorry I cant be much help.. I'm new to this and am detoxing after 13 years in Xanax myself. I came here to tell you I did find a good support group on Facebook. Called benzodiazapine recovery . Lots of good Information and help from lots of people. Maybe it can help you as well.. good luck. See you I the group if you join.
I have done the same,I have been TakingValium for 35 years,3x10.I just weened off of the Valuim2weeks ago and tamasapam witch is another benzo plus I take trasadome did not sleep for six days terrible WithDraw terrible depression and anxiety did not know what to do. So I called my doctor made an appointment and she said there was nothing that she could give me that would take the place of Valium. I have been taking it because of restless leg syndrome neuropathy so bad in my feed from diabetes and chronic insomnia it doesn't look like I'm gonna get off of the valium the only one drug that has never quit working on me it has always been good for me the trazodone helps a little bit but it gives me A headache and the sleep that I get out of it is not worth the headache.
I'm so envious that you weaned off Valium . I'm trying desperately to get off 10 mg. I've been on it for more Than 12 years. My biggest problem is the constant insomnia. Any tips youcan give me will be appreciated. I just keep failing time after time after time. Sleep is so precious .
from 6mg to 2mg per day and that's where I stay. I understand the issue of getting off benzos, but there are good reasons why some of us will always have to be on some limited form of them. It is what it is. My personal viewpoint.
Try Googling "benzodiazepine withdrawal syndrome wikipedia" for an extremely informative article on the withdrawal process.
Unfortunately, after the acute phase withdrawal symptoms can continue for weeks, months, even years along with the problems that long term use causes both physically and mentally.
There are much safer treatments available that are equally effective and are not addictive. Doctors know this and many are prescribing less and attempting to wean long term patients.
Hi. I was taking 1mg every 6 hours (4 a day) since after I came back from 9/11. I tapered back to 1mg twice a day on my own. The best way to come off Xanax for me was to have my doctor write a prescription to a compounding pharmacy at the widely accepted rate of lessen the milligrams by 2-5 % every ten days or so then another 2-5% for another ten day until you are off of them. You will be getting a persise tappering dose from the compounding pharmacy every dose. There are these pharmacies in most major towns and pharmacies.
This is very persise and you just can't break the pills in these equal and small amounts. This was my best way.
Hope this gives you more insight.
My biggest problem with getting off of clonazepam was the pain. Every little thing hurt. If I laid on my right side, my ear hurt, every where I had a seam in my pajamas or underwear I had severe pain. Then I had hallucinations for two months. It is something that I will never forget. Unfortunately I am on it again and have been for years. I'm thinking I will just take it till I die. Is this a sad story or what? I am not sure.
Im so sorry for your pain. I to have been taking them for 5 years then my doctor decided to take all patients off because of over prescribing i guess but i have had 12 surgeries. Suffer from nerve pain, insomnia and severe anxiety. Was put on some other anxiety med called hydroxyzine hcl and it does not help. I'm 24/7 nausiated, stomach pain is unbearable, sleep 2 hours every 72. Nerve twitches and have been to the ER 3 times this year because i thought i was having a hear attack and found out i had 3 small ones. I have no words to help you. I do use Benadryl which helps sometimes but i feel like I'm dying. I'm 46 and afraid. I just keep talking to God. Started to read the bible again which is soothing. Talking to people makes it worse i just cry. I wish i could hold you and tell you it will be fine but i can't. Just find something to believe in and put your thoughts there. Baths,magnesium helps. Good luck huni and try to stay positive.
I know exactly what you are saying. I was taking 6mgs of Xanax a day for almost 15yrs. Please let me give you my advice and how I got off safely with zero withdrawals. It took me forever and multiple seizures to do it safe. I know this answer 100% no question. Bars that you can split into four are definitely the best. Reason being, you can monitor exactly where you are at and the dosage you are taking where when taking a milligram let's just say, you cannot break evenly or take the correct dose. Bars are the way to go. You can taper down correctly, safely and take the same dose every time. Now let's just say you're at 1mg. That would be half a bar. As you taper down, I didn't change my dosage minimum of one week even if I felt like I could go down. Because of my high dosage and the years of taking. It took time but was definitely worth it. My doctors wrote out a million different plans. Only you know how you feel when coming down.
At 1mg, I stayed for at least a week sometimes a little more. I made sure I was okay before coming down. A week later or maybe a little more, depending how I felt, I dropped down to 1/2mg or the first line of the bar. Since it's in four parts or three lines. Each part is 1/2 mg or 2mg in whole. Once I was down to 1/2 mg, I stayed for 2weeks just to be safe. I didn't want another seizure so I was extremely careful. You have to go how you feel. I know you have been on them forever like myself. You won't have permanent damage or not get back to normal. If you're like me. This thought can drive you crazy. Please don't worry. I was on a massive dose for over a decade daily. As you taper down with time, your brain and body adjusts and you will be fine. Getting back to dosage, I was on 1/2 mg for at least two weeks. I took only when I really needed. You feel it and it can come fast. When doing this have them close by. Time your dosage and when you take. You will notice the time getting farther apart. Your body is adjusting to normal. Once I was down and safe on 1/2 mg, I took the bar and bit off less than 1/2 mg. I did the same and took when needed. My time got farther apart and after about a week, my body adjusted so well I didn't even feel like I needed anymore. It was amazing. One day I needed and the next I didn't feel like it at all. It took about a week but everyone is different. I bit just the smallest amount of a bar. Less than 1/2 mg, probably less than 1/4 mg. Just the smallest amount. Even though they make in 1/4 mg, I didn't even bite that much. This is why I say bars are definitely the best for coming down. They are an "all in one " as far as dosage. You can taper down from 2mgs all the way to nothing in one pill. Finally 1 bar lasted me forever coming down. Once I got down to nothing and felt it was safe to drop completely. I was taking every other day to every two days. Just if I needed. Listen to your body. Before you know it, you won't need at all. Once I totally dropped or when I got down. I didn't drive for at least 4 days. Just to be safe. I didn't want to chance it. Well good luck and hope my experience helps.Please don't worry and take the time your body needs. Just know you will return to normal no matter how long you have been taking. Be safe and best of luck!!
You said that you went off it carefully? Yet had multiple seizures? I don't think that is very safe. Withdrawing safely is not having seizures. Glad you got off but I think she should listen to her Dr. Or her own body.
Hi! I am finally admitting I need help. I'm a 48 y/o female, newly divorced, just trying to stay alive, keep my job and be understood. I'm willing to listen or chat. I'm brand new in this journey and quite frankly, terrified.

Hotel chains seek growth in China's smaller cities
[photopress:TiansenIbis.jpg,full,alignright]A report in The Australian states international hotel chains are pushing into China's second-tier cities in a bid to tap into potentially huge new markets.
According to a CBRE Research report on China's hospitality industry, in 2000, five-star hotels in Shanghai and Beijing accounted for about 29 per cent of the 117 five-star hotels in China. However, by 2005, it dropped to about 25 per cent as hotel operators diversified into second and even third-tier Chinese cities.
As well as geographical diversification, international hotel chains were using lower-price brands to broaden their customer base in provincial China.
CBRE noted that the French hotel operator Accor launched its first Ibis Hotel, its three-star brand, in China's Tianjin in 2003. Accor had reported occupancy rates of more than 90 per cent at the hotel throughout the year. The average occupancy was 74 per cent across its properties in China in 2005.
More recently, Accor announced plans to open 10 to 20 hotels in Sichuan between 2006 and 2012.
The InterContinental Group was plans to increase its network to 125 properties by 2008 to capitalize on the growing boom in local and foreign travel in China. The report also noted that 12 of the Shangri-La chain's 21 hotels in China were already in second-tier cities. 14 the 31 new hotels Shangri-La Group will open globally between 2006 and 2010 will be located in China. Three are located in first-tier cities, namely Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Shanghai. The remaining properties are being developed in cities such as Chengdu, Xian and Wenzhou in China's interior provinces.
