U.S. emergency department spending grew 4.4% between 2006 and 2016, a higher rate of change than other healthcare spending, according to a new study published this week in the open-access journal PLOS ONE by co-first authors Kirstin Scott and Angela Liu and colleagues affiliated with the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington.
Emergency department (ED) spending can be expensive compared to alternative sites of care, and has been subject to policymaker scrutiny as momentum has grown to curb healthcare spending. Despite increased attention to ED costs by policymakers, payers and patients, few studies have assessed ED spending over time.
In the new study, the authors utilized the National Emergency Department Sample, a nationally representative sample of hospital-based ED visits in the U.S., to measure healthcare spending for ED care between 2006 to 2016.
Overall annual ED spending, adjusted for inflation, was $79.2 billion in 2006 and grew to $136.6 billion in 2016, representing a population-adjusted annual rate of change of 4.4% (95% CI 4.4-4.5). Overall healthcare spending only grew by 1.4% (95% CI 1.4-1.4) during the same decade. The percentage of healthcare spending attributable to the ED increased from 3.9% in 2006 to 5.0% in 2016 and ED spending per visit increased at an annualized rate of 3.4% (95% CI 3.3-3.4). More ED spending was in females (60%) than males, and the 20-44 age group accounted for the highest amount of spending (35.6%). Road injuries, falls and urinary diseases were associated with the most ED spending, accounting for 14.1% of total ED spending in 2016. The authors conclude that ED spending is sizable and growing, and understanding which diseases are driving this spending is helpful for informing value-based reforms.
The authors add: "Though ED spending accounts for a relatively small portion of total health system spending in the U.S., the level of ED spending is sizable and outpacing the growth of the rest of the health sector. This study is the first to systematically characterize what health conditions account for ED spending in the U.S. over time, serving as a foundation for future work to explore the value of this spending and whether such growth has been sufficient for supporting the unique role that the ED serves to millions of Americans, including in the current era of the COVID-19 pandemic."

Maria Izquierdo was active/lived in Mexico. Maria Izquierdo is known for modernist painting.
María Izquierdo was among the first women in Mexico to earn her living as a professional painter. She was an internationally renowned artist in her lifetime and remains one of the most notable figures in twentieth-century Mexican art history.
Since the start of her career in the late 1920s, critics and colleagues have celebrated Izquierdo's art for its robust color and quintessential Mexican-ness. Like many modern artists, she was committed to creating art concerned with the life and experience of the Mexican people. In 1944, as part of President Manuel Ávila Camacho's program to promote Mexico's cultural mission both at home and abroad, Izquierdo was chosen to represent the nation as a cultural ambassad ...

Veteran celebrates 100 years
SPECIAL OCCASION: Merv Taylor's long-time Tewantin neighbour John Philpot presents him with his RSL Sub-branch certificate acknowledging his 100 years, at Tewantin Sub-branch. Alan Lander
by Alan Lander
TEWANTIN'S own new centenarian Mervyn Taylor, fresh from partying hard at Noosa's Boathouse last Wednesday, was back in town again the following day, to receive a special certificate from Tewantin RSL's Sub-branch.
RSL president Mick Reid arranged for Merv's long-time neighbour and fellow veteran John Philpot to present the certificate next to the RSL's new artwork.
Mr Reid also wrote up a summary of Merv's military career:
"Mervin Taylor left school and started work for Pykes Motor services as a driver and mechanics' assistant learning about motors and the servicing of vehicles.
"In 1939 he was called up for Army military service and directed to report to Victoria Barracks. His best friend Albert had joined the RAAF.
"After some thought he went down and enlisted in the RAAF and was accepted.
"He was sworn in on April 29, 1940.
"He advised the Army of his enlistment and never heard from them again.
"He never had any further contact with his best friend.
"He applied for a position as a driver in the transport section of the RAAF, but was told there were no vacancies.
Left: Mervyn and his wife Mavis in 1942, not long after their marriage.
"With the support of his previous employer he requested to be trained as a fitter.
"The RAAF posted him to Adelaide and then to Melbourne for training as a hand rigger on aircraft.
"Again there was no position available so he was approached to be a steward serving in the officer's mess.
"He was also called on to help with the servicing of aircraft on occasions.
"Posted to PNG's Milne Bay he was, along with his normal duties, directed to guard the perimeter of the airfield.
"He had to undertake bayonet training because the threat from the enemy was so serious.
"To this day he remembers that they took turns sleeping in an old ambulance, so that they could get some decent rest away from the stress and the heat. He served in Australia, Port Moresby, Milne Bay and Morotai Island.
"On his return, he spent some time in hospital with malaria, before being discharged on September 25, 1945.
"He has spent the last 25 years living in retirement in Tewantin."

The TL budget thumb turn euro cylinder is a great choice for inexpensive home security installation. The high quality 6 pin budget thumb turn euro cylinder come in a range of sizes to make sure the cylinder is fit flush to the handle, in order to ward off criminals that attempt to use the most popular break-in methods.
The cylinder comes with a key fob which includes a serial number. Customers can register the cylinder on our website to activate their 2 year guarantee. What's more, customers will also have access to 'My Keys.' This allows the customer to keep a record of their key number and an image, so if they ever lost all of their keys, they can log in to the website and simply take the key number and image to a key cutter to get cut.

Each thumb turn cylinder is packed full of security features, and is part of UAP super smooth cylinder system using the Chris Belcher designed anti-bump timing pin system. This very clever system uses nickel plated hardened steel key pins and driver pins, which gives the anti-drill feature we wanted to incorporate. The Patented timing pins are designed to interrupt the timing of the pins when bumped, and it is highly effective. And because we use special pins rather than trap pins, we do not have a high expense to get this anti-bump feature! The timing pins also have inbuilt anti-picks, and mushroom driver pins, which makes them highly effective against picking.

14 'What just happened?' White House media moments that shocked us in 2017
by Brian Stelter @brianstelter December 23, 2017: 2:23 PM ET
The top 7 media stories of 2017
Looking back at year one of the Trump presidency, we all remember "alternative facts" and "covfefe" and the president's claim that major TV networks are the "enemy of the American people."
But do you remember "Holocaust centers" and "last night in Sweden" and Trump's tweet of a meme showing CNN logo being hit by a "Trump train?"
Some of the year's shocking, strange and just plain funny moments have already faded from consciousness.
Do you remember these "did that really just happen" moments?
1. While speaking to members of the U.S. military, Trump wrongly accused the press of intentionally downplaying terrorist attacks. He said "radical Islamic" attacks were "not even being reported."
2. Kellyanne Conway cited a nonexistent "massacre" in Bowling Green, Kentucky, to justify the administration's temporary travel ban.
3. At the National Prayer Breakfast, Trump said Arnold Schwarzenegger's version of "The Apprentice" was a "total disaster," and "I want to just pray for Arnold, if we can, for those ratings, OK?"
4. In late February, the White House blocked CNN, The New York Times and several other outlets from attending one of Sean Spicer's off-camera briefings. There was an outcry, and it did not happen again.
5. In early January, before his inauguration, Trump saw a CNN segment about the network's book about his election victory, then tweeted that he didn't like the photo on the cover.
@CNN just released a book called "Unprecedented" which explores the 2016 race & victory. Hope it does well but used worst cover photo of me!
6. When the Trump White House complained about the coverage of his inauguration crowd size, Trump even misstated the inauguration weather. He said the skies became "really sunny" after his speech, when in fact it remained cloudy.
7. During an interview in May, Trump asked reporter, Salena Zito: "Why was there the Civil War? Why could that one not have been worked out?"
8. In February, Conway stood in the briefing room and told Fox viewers to "go buy Ivanka's stuff."
9. "You should all send your kids to Lego Batman," said Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, an executive producer of the movie.
10. Spicer seemingly referred to Nazi concentration camps as "Holocaust centers," and later apologized.
11. At a press conference in February, Trump falsely said he had the biggest electoral college victory since Ronald Reagan. NBC's Peter Alexander looked up the facts on his phone, read it to the president, and asked "Why should Americans trust you?" Trump did not give a reason. His excuse was "I was given the information."
12. David Clarke, a sheriff who regularly appeared on Fox to support Trump, declined an interview request from CNN by saying, "Trump has labeled CNN as fake news. When Pres. Trump says CNN is ok again, then I might."
13. In February, Swedes were baffled when Trump brought up "what's happening last night in Sweden," implying some sort of terror attack had happened there, because he had watched a Fox segment about immigrant violence.
14. Last but not least: You're gonna think I'm making this up, but I'm not. Trump told "Fox & Friends" in January that "I don't like tweeting." He said it un-ironically!

Killarney clubs lose out as €74k handed out
Killarney sports clubs have not received the same amount of funding as other clubs across the county, a Killarney Advertiser study can exclusively reveal.
On Monday, Sport Ireland announced €74,000 had been allocated to 59 Kerry-based grassroots sports clubs as part of a COVID-19 resilience fund.
The money was allocated to clubs all over the county but it seems Killarney based clubs have either lost out on the chance to get the funding or did not apply in the first place.
A total of €26,889.08 was handed out to GAA clubs across the county, but the only town team on the list is Dr Crokes who bagged the €1,500 maximum.
In the wider Killarney area Gneeveguilla GAA received the maximum and Glenflesk came close on €1,420.08, while St Pat's East Kerry Hurling Club bagged €600.
Killarney Badminton Club was one of three clubs in the county from this discipline to secure money while Sliabh Luachra Cycling Club (€1,400) was the only cycling club in the whole county to make the cut.
Only Fossa and Flesk Valley rowing clubs in the Killarney area were successful. They will receive the maximum of €1,500 each despite a total €15,897.17 being handed out to rowing clubs in the county.
Not one of the town's soccer clubs were included in the funding despite a total of €3,050 being distributed to such clubs across the county.
Killarney has a huge basketball tradition but St Joseph's Basketball Club in Listowel was the only club in the county to qualify for funding.
Killarney-based rugby, athletics, camogie, gymnastic and ladies football clubs were not included but other clubs from these sports across the county were.
The Ring of Kerry Golf Club was the only golfing club on the list while Tralee Pitch and Putt is set to benefit to the tune of €1,500. None of the golf or pitch and putt clubs in the Killarney area were on the receiving end of the funding.
Likewise, in motorsport, Killarney and District Motor Club were not included but Tralee-based Kerry Motor Club received €1,500 to be put towards COVID-19 expenses.
These funds were handed out on a local level and are separate to the multi-million Euro governing body funding that was also announced on Monday.

Mala Kachalla Career
Kachalla was elected as governor of Borno State in April 1999, running for the All People's Party (APP), which was renamed All Nigeria People's Party (ANPP) due to a factional split.

In August 2000, the state of Borno under the leadership of Kachalla adopted the sharia legal system. He built one of the first set of the state government sponsored Almajiri/Quranic schools in Borno state. In September 2002, Kachalla said there were conflicting border claims in the Lake Chad area, and that Nigeria was losing control of some island villages there. He said there was no clear cut demarcation between Borno, Chad and Cameroon, and that the region was plagued by armed rebels and trafficking in illicit arms and children.
At the April 2003 elections, Ali Modu Sheriff was the ANPP candidate for governor rather than Kachalla which caused him to leave ANPP for the Alliance for Democracy (AD). However, he was defeated by Ali Modu Sheriff.

Mexico: Substitution Of A National Trademark Registration By A Posterior International Registration
by Liliana Rojas (Mexico City)
In accordance with Article 4bis (1) of the Protocol Relating to the Madrid Agreement Concerning the International Registration of Marks, a national registration can be replaced by its posterior international trade mark registration. This provision concerns the situation where a trade mark that is subject of a national registration is also subject of an international registration designating the same country and applies when both registrations stand in the name of the same person and cover identical goods or services.
In the same sense, Article 4 bis (1) indicates that the following conditions must be met:
the protection resulting from the international registration extends to the said contracting party under Article 3ter (1) or (2);
all the goods and services listed in the national or regional registration are also listed in the international registration in respect of the said contracting party,
such extension takes effect after the date of the national or regional registration.
As provided by Article 4bis §2 of the Protocol Relating to the Madrid Agreement Concerning International Registration of Marks, and upon request of the trade mark owner, the Mexican Trademark Office would be required to take note of this replacement in its register of international trade mark registrations.
In view of the above and in order to ascertain that the rights obtained through the national registration for the concerned goods or services remain valid even after the said earlier right would not be renewed at the next renewal due date the substitution has to be requested through a brief filed before the Mexican Trademark Office. We have recently filed a petition requesting our authorities to take note of a substitution of a national registration by a posterior international registration and await their response taking note of this request.

Maintaining faithfulness in times of prosperity and while away from home can be a challenge. Daniel and his three young friends kept their faith in God in a foreign land, Babylon. They were captives where there were 53 temples and 80 altars and all kinds of 'dainties' being offered to idols. But Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego remembered the training as youths in Israel and resolved not to defile themselves (Daniel 1-4). They would not would bow, bend, budge or burn! Seeing their great faith and integrity, king Nebuchadnezzar elevated them to positions of authority.
Later king Belshazzer saw handwriting on a wall during a feast, but no one could interpret it among all his wise men and astrologers. Daniel was called. Though loyal to the king, he gave a daring interpretation that predicted doom for Belshazzar (Daniel 5:5-30). He valued truth above place or position.
Daniel, perhaps now 95 years of age, still a man of fervent prayer, was president over many princes, now under a third king, Darius. Other officials were jealous of the position of this foreign old man, but could find no fault in him whereby they could trap him. They contrived an evil scheme and had him cast into a den of lions (Daniel 6), but God delivered him alive.
They would not change, repent or depart from their training as boys (see Ecclesiastes 12).


Lung Khuy Cave, Chieu Lau Thi Peak and Tu San Canyon are three attractive destinations to be presented to travellers, according to Dang Quoc Su, director of the Ha Giang Tourist Information and Promotion Centre.
Chieu Lau Thi is the second highest mountain in the province at 2,142m above sea level, Lung Khuy is a newly-discovered cave with impressive stalactites, while Tu San Canyon is 800m deep and 1.8km long.
Some new tours will be offered including climbing, kayaking on the Nho Que River and walking down Ma Pì Leng Pass to Tu San Canyon.
"Ha Giang impresses visitors with its UNESCO Geopark Site – Dong Van Karst Plateau, steep hills, winding roads and the diversified culture of many ethnic groups," Su said.
The provincial Party Chief Trieu Tai Vinh said upgrading service quality and developing new tours is key.
"When I worked as head of Ha Giang's Hoang Su Phi District eight years ago, I rode a motorbike to visit all villages and communes and realised the landscape is spectacular but I didn't know how to get tourists here because the infrastructure wasn't developed, traffic was not convenient and locals didn't know how to receive tourists," said Vinh.
However, many attractive tourist areas haven't been developed, he said.
"We prioritise promoting tourism as part of the development strategy of the province," said Vinh.
Tran The Dung, vice director of The He Tre Company from HCM City, has brought many tourists to Ha Giang in recent years.
He gave some suggestions to develop tourism such as using social networks, improving traffic to make roads to caves more accessible and opening tours connecting Ha Giang with Tuyen Quang, Cao Bang and Bac Kan provinces to encourage tourists to stay longer.
Dung pointed out that foreigners need to obtain permits to enter border areas in Ha Giang and the process is time consuming. He suggested the process be done in Hanoi to make it more convenient for foreign tourists.
During the conference, Ha Giang's Tourism Association signed a memorandum of understanding to work with partners in Hanoi, Nghe An, Ninh Binh, Hai Phong, Quang Ninh and Thanh Hoa provinces. Accordingly, they will exchange experience and information in promoting tourism and hold training courses on tourism.
On the occasion, the provincial Department of the Culture, Sports and Tourism also introduced the publication Reliable Addresses of Ha Giang Tourism to honour excellent tourism businesses and help visitors find the best products in Ha Giang.
Ha Giang received 469,000 tourists, including 85,000 foreigners, in the first half of this year, 11.2 percent more than the same period last year. The province aims to welcome 1.5 million tourists in 2020.
Takahashi Ayumi, head of Japan National Tourism Organisation in Vietnam, said Ha Giang is an attractive destination to Japanese tourists and he expected that Vietnamese and Japanese partners will enhance co-operation in tourism.

As the federal shutdown marches on with no end in sight, several local restaurants are pitching in with free meals or offers to help furloughed workers.
At Union Joints restaurants (Clarkston Union, Fenton Fire Hall, Honcho, Union Woodshop and Vinsetta Garage) they are dishing out "Most Macked Mac" for furloughed workers and a family member with a federal ID.
The free mac and cheese is available on Mondays and will continue to be offered, Catallo said, until workers start getting paid.
"It's called comfort food for a reason, and if it can help them a little bit on a Monday like that we are happy to assist," Catallo said.
On Monday, the first day of the promotion, Catallo said employees worked a double shift to make enough mac and cheese. He didn't say how many took advantage.
Adrian Gjokaj, managing partner of Downtown Louie's in Detroit, said the restaurant is providing a free meal (soups, salads, sandwiches and pasta) to federal employees affected by shutdown from 2-6 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays.
"They take care of us, we should take care of them," Gjokaj said. The promotion started last Thursday, and Gjokaj said they've had people come by.
Downtown Louie's posted the promotions through social media.
Gjokaj said Downtown Louie's proximity to federal court and other government agencies means they do get a decent number of federal workers as customers. Business, he said, has dropped off a little because of the shutdown.
Grand Blanc's Great Harvest Bread Company is holding what is called "shutdown shelf." It's where, according to their Facebook post, government employees not receiving a paycheck can get a free loaf of bread. The free loaves are while supplies last and at the Grand Blanc location only.
Toarmina's Pizza and Burrito Joint at 1200 Packard in Ann Arbor is offering a free lunch from 2-5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
The Blue Nile Ethiopian restaurant, 545 W. Nine Mile in Ferndale, is offering a free meal to furloughed workers during the shutdown. It's by reservation only and limited to 14 meals per day. To make a reservation, send a private message through Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/TheBlueNileFerndale/.

In the U.S., women have a much higher chance than men of developing depression. This increased risk applies to the severe illness known as major depression and includes certain forms of depression unique to women. In a new study published in the Archives of Women's Mental Health, researchers from the University of Pittsburgh sought to determine how much a family history of major depression increases a middle-aged woman's chances of developing symptoms of this potentially debilitating disorder.
Roughly 6.7 percent of American adults have diagnosable cases of major depressive disorder, the National Institute of Mental Health reports. This rate of exposure marks major depression as one of the nation's most common mental health challenges. A person affected by the disorder has severe forms of depression symptoms such as a recurrent or continually anxious, sad, hopeless, helpless or guilty state of mind; a reduced ability to gain pleasure from previously enjoyed activities; an unusually restless, agitated or irritable state of mind; declining energy levels; problems with memory, focus or other core mental faculties; changes in sleeping or eating patterns; unusual aches or pains and suicide-oriented thoughts or behavior. Some combination of these symptoms must appear for at least one episode lasting two weeks or more; affected individuals may also experience recurring bouts of depression.
In addition to being female, known risks for developing major depression include having a European-American racial/ethnic background and being a young adult in your late 20s or early 30s. However, adults from all sorts of demographic backgrounds experience diagnosable symptoms of the disorder. Roughly 3 percent of U.S. teenagers also have symptoms of major depression or some other damaging form of depressive illness.
The average woman has an approximately 70 percent greater chance of developing some sort of diagnosable depression than the average man. Part of this elevated risk is related to changes that occur in women's bodies during monthly menstruation and during and after pregnancy. The American Psychiatric Association officially recognizes a depressive disorder, known as premenstrual dysphoric disorder, associated with the hormonal changes that characterize the menstruation process. Another gender-specific form of depression, postpartum depression, can appear in the days or weeks following the birth of a child. In addition to hormonal and chemical changes, acknowledged underlying factors that at least partially account for women's increased depression risks include genetic predisposition (i.e. family history) and gender-specific reactions to stressful, highly traumatic or life-threatening events.
In the study published in the Archives of Women's Mental Health, the University of Pittsburgh researchers used data from two projects—the Women's Mental Health Study and the Study of Women's Health Across the Nation—to help determine the role that a family history of major depression plays in increasing the depression risks for middle-aged women. A total of 303 participants from these projects were included; all of the included women were between the ages of 42 and 52 and had an African American or European American racial/ethnic background. Each participant submitted a family history of depression and other mental health issues. The researchers used criteria drawn from the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Health (DSM) to gauge each woman's current exposure to major depression.
The researchers concluded that middle-aged women with a family history of major depression have a roughly 200 percent higher chance of experiencing diagnosable major depression than women with no such family history. This fact holds true even when a range of other factors capable of contributing to depression risks are taken into consideration. Examples of these additional factors include experiencing depression symptoms before reaching middle age, having an unusually anxious personality, having a history of exposure to traumatic events and having a history of chronic physical health problems. The researchers also concluded that midlife major depression risks reach their peak among women who experienced depression symptoms at any point in earlier life.
The study's authors note that a family history of major depression clearly increases the odds that any middle-aged woman will develop the disorder, regardless of her prior personal depression history. However, they also note that a prior personal history of major depression clearly boosts the odds that a middle-aged woman will develop major depression.

Johnson Meets Undocumented Students Amid Backlash
May 20, 2016 by Toby Hung 4 Comments
JETTA DISCO
Students met with Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson on Monday in advance of his address at the School of Foreign Service commencement Saturday.
In light of student and alumni advocacy efforts opposing his selection as the School of Foreign Service commencement speaker, Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson met with university administrators and members of the Georgetown community — including undocumented students — during a three-hour visit on campus Monday.
During the meetings, which were organized by the SFS Dean's Office, Johnson reportedly spoke with 12 students about their concerns regarding current immigration issues and his forthcoming speech. Selected by the Dean's Office, the group consisted of graduating student leaders from a variety of backgrounds.
In an interview with The Hoya, Johnson, who will also receive an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree from the SFS on Saturday, said he found the discussion to be constructive.
"I would say that it was an informative meeting," Johnson said. "I told them that their voices are voices that deserve to be heard, that they inform policy and that I admire and respect the passion of their commitment."
In addition, Johnson met with administrators including SFS Dean Joel Hellman and University Provost Robert Groves.
Groves supports Johnson's selection and honorary degree, according to Chief of Staff to the Executive Vice President and Provost Ali Whitmer.
According to Hellman, Johnson had planned on visiting campus prior to the backlash surrounding his selection to meet with students and better understand the community — a procedure that Johnson said he tries to follow for all his speaking engagements at universities.
During the meeting, Johnson said he explained to students the difficulty of balancing his personal beliefs with his professional obligations.
"When I go to the southern border and I encounter a lot of unaccompanied children who have been apprehended by our border patrol — there are hundreds of them — as a father and a Christian, I want to scoop them up and bring them home with me, but I know I can't," Johnson said.
Johnson said he also emphasized the importance of enforcing border control and regulations.
"There are lots of other considerations that go into border security and the enforcement of our immigration laws, and so to the fullest extent possible, I want to account for my personal convictions and my personal compassion, but I also have to enforce the law, consistent with our priorities," Johnson said. "We don't have an open border to illegal migration, and if we don't prioritize those apprehended at the border, then we effectively have an open border."
Throughout his tenure, Johnson oversaw the expansion of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which increased the number of deportation exemptions for immigrants who entered the country illegally before their 16th birthday, and the creation of the Deferred Action for Parents of Americans policy, which grants deferred action to individuals who entered the country illegally but have children who are American citizens or legal permanent residents. The two acts, which resulted in several lawsuits filed against the United States by states with Republican governors, are now in litigation before the Supreme Court.
Edwin Lopez (SFS '16), who participated in a meeting between student leaders and Johnson, said the meeting was an important step forward.
"I think the university has given both Secretary Johnson and the people who oppose him coming a place in the conversation. That's the best thing they could have done and Secretary Johnson coming to meet people was a very positive step. At least all voices were heard and the forum was open," Lopez said.
Johnson's selection sparked ire across the university community. After the university announced the selection two weeks ago, advocacy group UndocuHoyas delivered a letter to the SFS Dean's Office requesting that the university rescind the speaking invitation. The letter received support from Hoyas for Immigrant Rights, while the Georgetown University Student Association also expressed its support for the right of UndocuHoyas to express their disagreement with the selection.
A change.org petition started by Hemly Ordonez (SFS '08) May 9 also called for the university to cancel Johnson's speech and revoke his nomination for an honorary degree. The petition has amassed 742 signatures as of 8 p.m. Thursday.
Ordonez, who is from a mixed-status family, supported student advocates by providing her consultation as a digital strategy professional specializing in cause marketing.
According to Ordonez, the meeting between Johnson and the students is unlikely to change the emotional responses from undocumented students and their families during commencement.
"It still doesn't take away this hurt that some of the students and their families may be experiencing during this graduation cycle. It still doesn't take away the fear that the students experience when encountering anyone from homeland security," Ordonez said. "One meeting does not remedy that."
Although the university currently has no plans to rescind the invitation, Ordonez said she would like the university to apologize for selecting Johnson as the commencement speaker.
"I think that they need to issue an apology to the students and their families for causing undue harm on a weekend that's supposed to be a celebratory weekend for all of the graduates," Ordonez said.
Ahead of commencement, Hellman said he is in favor of students expressing their personal viewpoints and experiences symbolically during the ceremony.
"We want to highlight the achievements of undocumented students, and we don't want to do anything to suggest that they don't have the full support of the community," Hellman said.
Clarification: An earlier version of this article stated that the Georgetown University Student Association supported UndocuHoyas' letter to the SFS Dean's Office to rescind Johnson's invitation. GUSA's statement supported UndocuHoyas' expression of frustration and disappointment.

What to think of the 30 students who revile Johnson because he enforced the law? If you think they are not borderland brain dead, think again.
Hoyalum says
One-sided article. Thank goodness for the comments section for balance. There are also Hoyas "across the campus" who do not agree with the activists described in the article.

The launch of consumer protection laws in countries like Tanzania and Kenya has also showcased government commitment to create sustainable financially inclusive environments for customers. This was considered vital in order to get more customers to trust the financial system in the long run. For instance, in Nigeria, there was a noted decreased in fraudulent bank transactions in 2015, which dropped to 2.3 billion naira ($7.1 million) from 6.2 billion naira ($19.3 million) in 2014.
Significant development in mobile money infrastructure in other African countries also acted as a major boost for financial inclusivity—surpassing the use of traditional bank accounts in many countries. Kenya scored the highest because of its mature mobile money market,with the success of M-Pesa service amplifying the number of people who had access to financial services.
One in five adults in Rwanda actively used mobile money, about double the percentage of bank users. This put it alongside 19 other countries in 2015 (pdf, p. 32), majority of them in Africa, which had more mobile money accounts than bank accounts. Thirty-five percent of adults in Uganda also had registered mobile money accounts. Even in Ethiopia, which scored low on the survey, the introduction of the M-Birr servicefacilitated over 273,000 transactions in 2015.

Q: Apply the following formatting unless the viewport is smaller than the container div - Jquery I am trying to create the following in Jquery, what I am trying to do is apply formatting to a div ONLY if the viewport is BIGGER than the .container div. I have written the following but I am not sure if I have done it correctly as my Jquery isn't that great.
    $(document).ready(function(){
    $(window).width();   // returns width of browser viewport
    $(document).width(); // returns width of HTML document

    $(window).height();   // returns heightof browser viewport
    $(document).height(); // returns height of HTML document

    var width = $(window).width(); // the window width
    var height = $(window).height();  // the window height
    var containerwidth = $('.container').outerWidth(); // the container div width
    var containerheight = $('.container').outerHeight(); // the container div height

    if ((width >= containerwidth) && (height>=containerheight)){ //if the width and height of the window is bigger than the container run this function
    $(document).ready(function(){
     $(window).resize(function(){
      $('.container').css({
       position:'absolute',
       left: ($(window).width()
         - $('.container').outerWidth())/2,
       top: ($(window).height()
         - $('.container').outerHeight())/2
      });
     });
     // To initially run the function:
     $(window).resize();
    });
    }
    });

    EDIT >>

....................................................
I have created a js fiddle here, which appears to be working now.
http://jsfiddle.net/QgyPN/

A: The way you test for the window dimensions and the container dimensions is fine.
There is however a problem with the say you treat your events. You have the
$(document).ready(function() {
    //...
});

twice which doesn't make sense (you fixed that in your fiddle by the way, which is probably why it works).
From what I understand, you are trying to :
1. When the page loads, apply certain css if the window is big enough.
2. On subsequent page resizes, do the same thing
So I suggest that you isolate your code that applies the CSS. That way you will be able to use it multiple times :
var positionContent = function () {
     var width = $(window).width(); // the window width
     var height = $(window).height();  // the window height
     var containerwidth = $('.container').outerWidth(); // the container div width
     var containerheight = $('.container').outerHeight(); // the container div height

     if ((width >= containerwidth) && (height>=containerheight)){
         $('.container').css({position:'absolute',
                             left: ($(window).width() - $('.container').outerWidth())/2,
                             top: ($(window).height() - $('.container').outerHeight())/2 });
    }
};

Then Use that function when you need to :
//Call it when the window first loads
$(document).ready(positionContent);

//Call it whenever the window resizes.
$(window).bind('resize', positionContent);

ICU clinicians turn to mobile technology in the fight against COVID-19
Over 40 intensive care clinicians at a Surrey hospital have been using mobile technology to safeguard staff and patients, maximise the use of limited personal protective equipment (PPE) and save time in the fight against the coronavirus outbreak
The staff at Royal Surrey NHS Foundation Trust are using robust smartphones from Ascom that meet strict NHS hygiene guidelines to communicate and carry out 'remote' ward rounds in the 24-bed ICU, where at the early peak of the pandemic there were up to 18 coronavirus patients on ventilators at any one time. The smartphones - enabled with single sign-on (SSO) from Imprivata and two-way video consultation technology from Attend Anywhere – enable just one doctor linked remotely to colleagues to do ward rounds. The mobile technology is also helping relatives to safely stay in touch with their loved ones in hospital.
A senior doctor at the hospital praised the 'fantastic' integrated technology, which he says has cut by half the time spent on ward rounds, saved the ICU's precious stocks of PPE, and reassured anxious relatives.
Consultant Intensivist and Anaesthetist Justin Kirk-Bayley said: "Usually we have four or five doctors on each ward round. That was becoming impractical with coronavirus patients and limited PPE supplies. Now, just one doctor goes into the quarantined sector of ICU and coordinates a ward round via video on the smartphone, which is projected onto a screen to the team in a meeting room. It is a lot slicker, more efficient, and safer. The technology is giving us back the time that we have lost to COVID-19."
Dr Kirk-Bayley said the ICU had already begun using the technology, introduced at the end of April, to talk to relatives. "One patient who was awake and doing well was able to see and talk to her husband for nearly an hour. The technology worked fantastically well. Nurses will be staying in touch with relatives day-to-day using video on the smartphones."
Clinical nurse specialist Claire Richardson said: "We have introduced virtual visiting on all 14 of our adult in-patient wards and in our departments and community hospitals. The system is ideal for this purpose. A member of staff takes the smartphone to the patient and can quickly and easily sign on to Attend Anywhere for them via SSO with one tap and no need for passwords. It is very easy to use. After the visit the patient, relative and staff are confident no data has been saved and the smartphone can be thoroughly cleaned to meet our infection control requirements.
"Virtual visiting has made a tremendous difference to our patients and relatives and the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. A COVID-19 positive patient who had not seen his wife for five weeks was able to see and speak to her. Another patient whose condition was deteriorating had a virtual visit from his son, who told staff it was reassuring to see him so well looked after. The system has been particularly beneficial to our elderly patients who do not have their own devices to have visits with their loved ones and I'm confident it has helped in their recovery."
IT infrastructure project manager Andy Dargue said: "We were already looking at using the technology for 'virtual' consultations at the Trust, but the COVID-19 outbreak hugely accelerated this. The Imprivata and Attend Anywhere technology was being successfully used in the outpatient clinics but, in response to the requirement from ICU we brought in the Ascom devices to allow us to make use of the system in the department.
"We had the smartphones on site and tested in two weeks. It has been an incredible team effort between the Trust and the three companies involved.
Dr Kirk-Bayley added: "The video conferencing software can be used via a web browser, and that is fantastic. You just set and forget. It has a highly reliable quality of connection – no frozen screens, degradation of video or dropped sound, unlike other systems."
The Attend Anywhere technology does not retain patient-identifiable information, which means patients using it leave no digital footprint. Each time an individual consultation ends during a shift, the online waiting area is wiped.
Daniel Johnston, Clinical Workflow Specialist from Imprivata said: "A patient's pyscho-social and emotional wellbeing via contact with family and friends plays a hugely significant role in their recovery, especially for those in isolation. Imprivata's Mobile Device Access not only enables the use of shared devices for safe and secure communication with loved ones, but also peer and senior medical support for clinical staff. With its fast, tap-in access, and ability to clear the device between uses, there is no inappropriate transfer of patient information. The process is as seamless as possible for clinicians, saving time and facilitating a better patient experience."
Paul Lawrence, managing director of Ascom UK said: "We are proud that our mobile technology is helping frontline NHS clinicians adapt to new ways of working during this terrible pandemic. Our team worked closely with the Trust to understand their needs and roll out the technology speedily and safely."

Today, consumers are bombarded with content vying for their attention. Shows such as Games of Thrones are competing for eyeballs alongside videos from YouTube, Netflix and Instagram. In this world of open access to content, attention spans are short and customer loyalty is low.
Winning in media requires the ability to connect consumers to the content they want. The days of selling expensive bundles of 100s of irrelevant television channels are over.
> "Defend" – Invest in content that consumers love – This year Netflix will spend $7bn on acquiring new content and ESPN will spend a similar amount on sports rights.
The number of intermediaries that separate content creators and content consumers will fall. Instead, there will be multisided platforms in which consumers and creators connect. These aggregators will be powered by content-matching engines which use data to cut through the noise and find the content of interest.
Imagine this use case: You get notified that your favourite sports team have a match, you watch, you pay, and the rights holder gets remunerated.

Rage Against the King (Pound Ionesco Faulkner) 2018 Toronto Fringe Review
July 8, 2018 Jonathan Lavallee
RAGE AGAINST the King, produced by Pound Ionesco Faulkner at Toronto Fringe Festival, is the third part of a trilogy being performed this year where different groups are writing around a single incident and creating unrelated stories. This is important to know because we thought that we would be lost not having seen the others. Thankfully that isn't the case; each one has its own story and can be viewed on their own.
RAGE AGAINST the King is about a fading local grunge musician named Izzy, played by Tristan Claxton, who is trying to strike out on his own; his nineteen-year-old girlfriend Lilah, played by Laura Darby; and Eden the jr. label associate assigned to get Izzy back with the band, played by Samantha Vu.
In this production, there were moments where I felt genuine emotion which allowed me to connect to the characters. Sadly, they were few, and the rest of the time the characters didn't feel like people in their own right, but more ideological mouthpieces. When Eden started to elaborate about what the band's music meant to her, I got the sense that she had some actual stakes in what was happening. The same happened at the end when Izzy started talking about his father and music, and what that meant to him. There the characters were able to show a depth that didn't exist for me for most of the play.
The show itself felt very uneven. Vu was caught in the middle of the conflict, and Eden as a character felt lost. Darby was far stronger as Robyn, the label executive, than Lilah because Lilah came across as a lot younger than she was supposed to be, and Robyn had defined parameters. Claxton was armed with the strongest dialogue in the show, and it helped him provide the most consistent performance. Ultimately, tone prevented me from being invested in the performance since it was frequently at the full volume of a yell rather than mixing it up.
My final takeaway is from the play itself. The script says, "there were a lot of words, and the words are empty." For me, this reverberated throughout the show.
RAGE AGAINST the King plays at the Robert Gill Theatre. (214 College St.)

Q: Poisson Process Change of Measure I have seen the following result stated in the literature:
Let $N(t)$ be a (finite time horizon) Poisson process defined on a probability space $(\Omega, \mathbb{P})$ with constant intensity $\lambda$. There exists an equivalent probability measure $\mathbb{Q}$ such that $N(t)$ has intensity $\mu \neq \lambda$, i.e. we can change constant intensity by a change of measure.
My question is whether or not it is possible to change the intensity from being constant to being random (i.e. stochastic) under an equivalent change of measure?
I have seen that there is a Girsanov theorem for jump processes which seems to suggest that this is possible. Unfortunately, I do not have a deep enough understanding of the stochastic analysis to know if all the technical conditions hold. I would also be greatful if anyone could point me to accessible literature on this topic.
Many thanks.

A: Yes. For example, restricted to $[0,T]$, the density the process with random intensity $Z$ (also known as a Cox process with directed by $Z$) with respect to a intensity one Poisson process can be constructed as follows: Let $\{t_i\}_{i \in N}$ be an increasing sequence of positive reals, and z a positive real valued function. We define the functional
$$G(z, \{t_i\}_{i \in N}) = \exp\left(T - \int_0^T z(s) ds + \sum_{0 \leq t_i \leq T} \log(z(t_i))\right) $$
Let $\{J_i\}_{i \in N}$ be the sequence of jump times of a Poisson process then given a realization of a unitary Poisson process then the density with that converts this process in a Cox process directed by $Z$ is
$$ E(G(Z,\{J_i\}_{i \in N})\, | \,\{J_i\}_{i \in N}) = E(G(Z,\{t_i\}_{i \in N})) \bigg|_{\{t_i\}_{i \in N} = \{ J_i \}_{i \in N}} $$
For example the density of a Poisson process of constant intensity $\lambda$ with respect a unit rate Poisson process $N$ is:
$$\exp\left( T - \lambda T + \log(\lambda) N_T\right)$$
You can check that integrating with this density the characteristic function you will arrive to the Poisson process with intensity $\lambda$

Shifting to the wing for our Round 10 clash with the Wests Tigers, Alex Johnston and Cody Walker created a lethal combination which almost saw the skillful winger grab a hat-trick in our 28-8 victory.
AJ's first try came in the 12th minute; a textbook finish after some Cody Walker magic. The dynamic duo combined again in the 47th minute in a similar fashion - although Johnston had to dispatch Tigers fullback James Tedesco before scoring his second.
The outside back almost completed his hat-trick in the 65th minute, running onto a dangerous John Sutton chip kick. However, the NRL Bunker would review the effort and deem it a 'no try' due to a knock on as Johnston attempted to ground the ball.

If you work with lots of files, then you'll soon find that the Mac Finder can be rather limiting. You've got to have one window open per folder, it doesn't always remember the original folder when you close the Finder window and you have to juggle different windows to move around files.
On the Windows platform, there are a few Explorer replacement tools. One of the better apps is the long-standing Directory Opus. It has a high learning curve, but it's the flexibility that wins over fans. Go back to the standard Explorer and you're lost with the simplicity. For Mac users, Forklift is a similar example. The key difference between Directory Opus and Forklift is that Opus replaces the entire Explorer. Double-click on the desktop and an Opus window opens instead of an Explorer window. Forklift doesn't sit that deep in to the operating system, so you have to click on the application icon to open a Forklift window.
That aside, Forklift is an excellent improved version of Finder. You can open a dual-window, select the folders you want to manage, then copy files from pane to pane. You can even open a tabbed window, so you can handle multiple folders or destinations for the same files.
Forklift does a lot more than just give you an improved Finder. You can handle all your file archives, so you can create, open and extract files from just about any archive. It acts as an FTP client, enabling you to upload or download files from a remote host. It supports just about every FTP format, too, so you can even upload files to your Amazon S3 account.
There are many other smaller features, too. For example, you can make sure files and folders are synchronised between source and destination, which is handy if you don't want to figure which files you've uploaded to a remote server.
+ ForkLift has been redesigned and recoded (in Swift) from the ground up.
+ Git support for developers.

What do Trump's tariffs mean for Canada?
Steel industry expert Peter Warrian explains how badly this will hurt steelmakers, what the knock-on effects will be and why dark times loom
By Shannon Proudfoot May 31, 2018
A Dofasco employee looks at rolls of coiled steel in Hamilton Ont., Tuesday, March 13, 2018. (THE CANADIAN PRESS/Tara Walton)
On Thursday, U.S. Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross announced that as of midnight, the Trump administration would subject Canadian steel imports to a 25-per cent tariff and aluminum to a 10-per cent tariff.
The reaction came fast and furious, with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau declaring the tariffs "totally unacceptable" and announcing retaliatory duties on a broad range of goods from the U.S.
Maclean's talked to Peter Warrian, a steel industry expert and senior research fellow at the Munk School of Global Affairs at the University of Toronto, about what exactly these tariffs will mean, what effect they will have on jobs and the economy and whether trade wars are, in fact, good and easy to win (spoiler: they are neither).
Q: Can you walk briefly through the sequence of events that led to this point?
A: The Trump administration gave notice they either wanted to end NAFTA or renegotiate NAFTA, which is a huge, complicated deal. And then—not unrelated, but separate from that—was the steel and aluminum tariff initiative.
The big story on NAFTA is really the automotive sector. But automotive is the biggest consumer of steel, therefore it gets linked into the larger piece.
Q: Can you put into perspective what a 25-per cent import duty on Canadian steel actually means?
A: First of all, it's movement of steel into the States, and most of that is by truck. So you can imagine a truckload of steel that's got an order in Chicago pulling up at Detroit, and as of midnight, whatever the value of the order is to the customer in the United States, there's going to be a demand for an extra 25 per cent cash in advance before that truck can enter the United States.
Q: On what end would that 25 per cent end up being paid?
A: It's going to be something of a ping-pong game. Ostensibly, the American purchaser, if he wants to get the steel delivered, has to pay the extra 25 per cent, but of course that person's going to say, "I bought this steel for $600 a tonne, what do you mean it's $750? You pay it." You're probably going to start to see trucks backed up at the border.
Q: Are we going to see pressure for Canadian suppliers to knock down their prices to compensate?
A: Absolutely. And also, steel is ordered in cycles that are often from six weeks to six months, so now you get uncertainty in the market for what it's going to be down the line. The normal cycle would be you're ordering your steel six weeks in advance of whatever you're manufacturing, and sometimes it's longer.
Q: What option does that leave for Canadian producers if they're told, "Give me a 25 per cent discount or I'm not taking it"?
A: Well, you can return the steel to your delivery yard, or you can see all of your profits go away.
Q: What about for the American purchasers, do they have other options?
A: They could say, "Okay, we'll go elsewhere." There may be a European country that's got some steel, but you're going to face a tariff over there. So maybe they're going to find another American source. However, the American industry is performing fairly full-out, so you can't automatically assume you're going to find another producer to ramp up an existing steel furnace that's been sitting idle. Steel prices will start rising significantly.
Q: How big is the steel industry in Canada right now, and what is its relative importance in the Canadian economy?
A: It will produce about $16 billion worth of goods a year. It would employ about 30,000 people directly, but there would be at least 70,000 more indirectly. And (a large) percentage of consumer products have some steel in them—even the iPhone. It's much broader than just a bunch of old smoke stacks around Hamilton.
Q: How has the size or robustness of the industry changed over time?
A: We still consume as much steel as we used to—in fact, it goes up about one per cent a year. But it's become so productive, it doesn't employ as many people. So if you backed up the clock 25 years, into the heyday, it took seven man hours to produce a ton of high-quality steel. Now, it's 1.25. So you're consuming as much steel as you ever did, but the number of direct jobs is not what it was.
Q: What proportion of Canadian steel is going to the U.S.? How much of our industry is directly affected by these tariffs?
A: Around 45 per cent. So this is a big deal.
Q: What are the ultimate product uses for Canadian steel in the U.S.?
A: The biggest one is automotive, that's about 26 per cent. Construction—everything from big steel beams to sort of steel 2-x-4s in modern houses—that's about 22 per cent. Those are the biggest: automotive, construction and general manufacturing.
READ MORE: Aluminum and steel tariffs: How Canada should react to Donald Trump
Q: Does that mean we'll see prices rising in the U.S. for those products or is the effect going to be on the supplier side in Canada?
A: The near-term is going to be an increase in prices in the United States: prices rise in the States, production probably falls in Canada.
The question is what's Canada going to do? The government has a very difficult situation, because under international trade rules, if somebody hits you on steel and you want to retaliate or reply back, you're not restricted to steel—you can reply to anything. That's how trade wars start.
Q: The government is talking about "defending" the industry and taking retaliatory measures, what realistic options do they have?
A: I think there's still enough common sense out there—and self-interest—that they have to finish these NAFTA negotiations. If that takes place, then I think the steel and aluminum stuff gets solved within that context relatively easily. But if the whole thing comes unstuck, then we're looking at some very dark times for everybody.
Q: Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland has emphasized that Canada sees S. 232 as entirely separate from NAFTA—can you explain what that is?
A: There are a set of rules that apply internationally in the NAFTA rules. The Americans have this 232 rule, which is a feature of U.S. law. It says the United States can take action against tariffs if "national security is threatened."
It's pretty tough to think that Canadian steel is threatening U.S. national security. But they're saying the NAFTA rules were grandfathering in all the U.S. trade rules. I think they're wrong on that, Freeland's making the right argument, but the [Americans] could say, "Yes, we agreed to NAFTA, but we always reserved the right, because of our position in the world, to use 232 against anybody." I think it's baloney, but that's the argument.
Negotiating a trade deal with the Americans is really tough because they're not great at living up to it. They're saying, "We can make an agreement with Europe, we can make an agreement with Japan, we can make an agreement with Canada, but we've got a backup exemption in our hip pocket."
Q: Freeland has also pointed out repeatedly that the U.S. actually has a trade surplus with Canada on steel. What does that mean?
A: The United States is Canada's biggest export market and Canada is the Americans' biggest export market. Basically, five or six million tonnes of steel go back and forth between Canada and the United States each way. Right now, Canada supplies more tonnes of steel to the United States than the other way around, but the value per tonne is higher on the American side, so there is a surplus.
Q: What does that mean for President Trump's stated justification for this move? He's talked a lot about the U.S. getting a raw deal.
A: He's trying to say that all the world—and Canada is among the sinners—have these huge trade surpluses with the States, and that's destroying American jobs and it's unfair, and it was all these lousy trade agreements from the past. Like most things he says, the factual basis is nothing like that. But that's the political rhetoric for him to invoke 232, because 232 is actually an issue about politics more than about economics.
If the Americans simply declared an end to NAFTA, the biggest industry effect would be automotive. A Canadian-made car has got about 40 per cent U.S. content in it. A Mexican-made car has about 35 per cent U.S. content in it. So if you shut it all off and end NAFTA, there will be a direct loss of about 37,000 American jobs, which is not exactly what Trump is telling his base—and there's indirect jobs on top of that. But that's not how it's being broadcast.
Q: What actually happens in a trade war? Who ends up suffering?
A: Everybody.
Let's be humble Canadians for a moment: we are a small piece of a much larger pie, so the Europeans and the Chinese already have their lists: "You want to slap us with that stuff, here's what we're going to do." The Chinese are smart, they're going after soybeans, because there are about four or five U.S. states that are major exporters of soybeans and agriculture products to China. The Europeans already have their lists. So we can look at that as entertainment value, but it's actually dangerous.
A major cause and effect of the Depression, when we went from a booming economy of the 1920s to a Depression in the 1930s, was a trade war. Everybody started to raise tariffs against everybody else. That's the risk: everybody loses.
Q. Is it difficult even to back down from the point they're at now?
A: There will have to be some face-saving stuff. That's what Minister Freeland has to work out. My guess at a high level is some of that will go on and they'll declare victory. Secondly, there's some very complicated deep stuff where we'll get some concession on goods, but the Americans will get some long-range troubling things on intellectual property.
It ain't easy, and it's not good.
We're at the mercy of the chaos of the White House. It doesn't make any logical sense. It has more to do with American domestic politics than it does with trade and economics.
