7 Types Of Home Where You Will Want to Avoid Installing Solar Panels
by Shaun Woods - 2nd October 2019 26th October 2019
Many more homes in the UK have been fitted with solar photovoltaic panels. The technology behind this form of renewable energy source has improved considerably in recent years.
Systems are powered by daylight, rather than by direct sunlight, which means that they can be used even in the remotest and dullest parts of the country. They can be used to power a simple hot water system, or to provide power for the whole house. However, to get the best results, you do need a suitable property.
The following is a list of 7 situations where solar panels may not be ideally suited.
1 – North Facing Roof
For a solar panel to generate the most power, it should ideally be facing true south. Roofs that face south-west and south-east are also considered highly efficient, while properties with an east or west facing roof will lose approximately 15% efficiency compared to a south facing roof. Generally, a north facing roof is not considered ideal. While most properties with a north facing roof will also have an opposite roof face, the layout of the building may mean that this simply isn't the case.
It is still possible to harness solar power in properties with a north facing roof. Panels can be pitched against the slope of the roof, although this will detract from the aesthetic look of the roofline. Alternatively, panels can be placed at ground level, but this does require avoiding areas of heavy shade.
Even a slight angle away from true north could be enough to ensure efficient solar panels.
2 – Little To No Roof Space
For a modest 3KW system, it is ideal to have 20 square metres of clear roof space, although it is possible to install an array in 15 square metres of space. Larger systems require larger arrays which, in turn, require more space. This is only about the size of a large 4×4 car, so it is likely that your roof has enough space to house a small array, at least. But you should always check suitability before investing.
3 – A Heavy Shaded Roof
Although solar panels do not require full sunlight to operate, they do require daylight. Heavy shade, therefore, still negatively impacts the efficiency of a solar panel. Trees, chimneys, and nearby buildings can all cast heavy shade, and you should look at your roof to determine how much shade there is throughout the day.
It is possible to cut trees back, but it is unlikely that you will be able to move a chimney and certainly won't be able to move the building next door. It might be possible to move the array over to one side of the roof or have a smaller solar system installed, to avoid shaded areas.
4 – A Weak Or Damaged Roof
An old or weak roof may not have the structural strength to be able to safely hold the solar panels and mounting. An installer should analyse the structural integrity of the roof to determine whether this is the case, and they will advise you upon completion of their checks.
If you are told that the roof is not strong enough, in its current condition, to house PV panels, you can consider having roof repairs or replacements, but these can cost a lot of money and inconvenience. Alternatively, your installer will inform you whether there are any alternatives that would strengthen the roof enough to be able to house your new solar system.
5 – Too Shallow Or Too Steep A Roof
A roof with a 50°+ angle is considered too steep for a solar panel. The panel would likely be in deep shade for large portions of the day, which means that it will be unable to harness the power required.
A roof with a pitch of less than 15° would be considered too shallow. The panels would not be able to self clean, which means that they would quickly become dirty and this negatively impacts the panels efficiency.
If your roof is too flat, it is possible to have an angled frame installed which would increase the pitch of the panel and provide a viable option.
The ideal pitch for a solar panel is between 30° and 45° although anywhere between 15° and 50° is considered suitable.
6 – You Have No Loft
You need some loft space in order to house the inverter. This is usually around the size of a microwave, so if you have no loft then you will need to find an alternative solution.
Because the inverter is relatively small, it is possible to have a cupboard or other storage area built into the top floor of the property. This can be concealed behind a unit door or cupboard door, especially if you have had the loft converted. Alternatively, the cupboard can be built near the ceiling height in the top floor of the property so that it is out of the way but still provides a suitable home.
Battery storage for solar panels may also require additional storage room but, once again, this can usually be built into the ceiling line of the property's top floor.
7 – You Don't Use Power During The Day
Solar panels collect power during the day and, in traditional systems, the power needed to be used straight away. It could not be stored. This meant that PV tiles were not considered suitable for families that used all of their power at night. Considering most people work during the day, and night time is when we do the most cooking and turn lights on, this is when power requirements tend to be greater.
Fortunately, to redress this balance, a lot of systems are now built with battery storage for solar panels. The energy is stored in the battery until it is needed, so your panels will transfer power to the batteries during the day while you're at work. When you get home, you can flick the light switches and run a hot bath, using the power that has been gathered and collected.
Check your property's suitability for solar panels and see whether you could benefit from a renewable energy source for your home.
As you can see there are a lot of grey areas of when a solar panel system can and shouldn't be advised. The only way of finding out is by instructing someone like ourselves to carry out a full & free home survey to check all aspects of the houses suitability and your potential return & electric bill savings.

How you can Explore the Best of the Hudson Valley | Tips & More
Fall, Lists & Guides, Spring, Summer, Travel Tips, Winter / November 19, 2020 January 19, 2021
Whether you are a native to the Hudson Valley or someone passing through, it's important when exploring this region to see the Best of the Hudson Valley.
These places work so hard to maintain the highest level of satisfactory for each one of their visitors and its a shame to let them sit unvisited.
Although some of these locations are open to the public, please follow these guidelines:
Please be safe.
Practice social distancing, wear a mask, wash hands thoroughly and follow all mandates and recommendations of the Centers for Disease Control (cdc.gov) and NY State and local Governments.
Hudson Valley Magazine dedicates an entire issue, each year, to their winners of the Best of the Hudson Valley in the following categories:
Best Shopping Experience
Best Leisure Activities
Best Art Galleries
Because there are so many things on these best of the Hudson Valley lists, it can be overwhelming and hard to know ow to start exploring.
And just like this great magazine, I too have taken the time to make a Best of the Hudson Valley list, with a twist.
Interested in learning more about the
'Picture Perfect Adventures in the Hudson Valley' Toolkit,
then take a look at all you can get by clicking this link:
The Hudson Valley Region
There is so much to see and do in the Hudson Valley. This region spans over 7,000 square miles, and this lends to having many bests of the best.
In a region so large, it can be hard to know the ins and outs of what the Hudson Valley has to offer. While there is no single way to explore the best of the Hudson Valley, here's a list of tips and tricks to get the most out of your exploration and outing.
Ditch the Car and Go on the Metro-North
As unconventional as it may sound to some of you, many people commute to and from and visit the Hudson Valley using the Metro-North train system.
Many places that fall under the umbrella of the best of the Hudson Valley can be accessed via train.
The Metro North Train System has five lines that take you to different areas within the Hudson Valley.
Pascack Line
By taking any one of these rail lines, you can discover and explore the best of the Hudson Valley with little to no stress. You don't have to worry about getting lost, GPS not working, traffic or difficulties in finding parking.
The Hudson Valley's Metro North System is a great option for getting to numerous attractions and activities.
Visit World Class Museums & the Best of the Hudson Valley for Free
You might think it's expensive to visit Hudson Valley's Museums, but that's not the case at all.
In fact, museums like Magazzino Italian Art in Cold Spring is always free and requires prior registration and the Hudson River Museum in Yonkers offers one free general admission the first weekend every month for patrons who present a Bank of America or Merrill Lynch credit/debit card.
Celebrating more than 15 years of celebrating museums all around the US, Smithsonian Magazine offered a Free Museum day to participating museums. With prior registration you can visit participating museums & cultural institutions up and down the Hudson Valley.
Enjoy a Free Movie at the Best Hudson Valley Parks
The Hudson Valley offers countless free summer movies. Some of these free popular movies are part of the Movies Under the Walkway in Poughkeepsie, which also features free music before the movie.
Movies under the Walkway over the Hudson
Outdoor movies are one of things that can be categorized as the best of the Hudson Valley. This popular activity strengthens the sense of community and makes wonderful and lasting memories.
Participate in Poughkeepsie's First Friday & Beacon's Second Saturday
The First Friday of every month (during the warmer months), Poughkeepsie hosts special community events, featuring music, food vendors with a concentration on the arts.
The Second Saturday every month, Beacon hosts their own community events. Galleries and restaurants are pen and offer special open house events.
First Friday in Poughkeepsie, NY
But how do you find all the information for all these great things?
I tried seeing the best of the Hudson Valley the 'Conventional Way'
I did research on my computer by opening up dozens of tabs and trying to make sense of it all. I began making lists and using Google Maps simultaneously in an attempt to plan an outing.
Photo taken by: JessicaJanePhotography.com
And that was tiring and frustrating.
I felt scatter-brained, discouraged, unorganized and overwhelmed. And that was before ever leaving the house!
Then, I wouldn't go out again for weeks because I didn't want to repeat the process again.
What I found is that with a planning system, I was able to better organize my day. I could quickly locate where I was going and see what was close by. It took a lot of trial and error, but I finally found a system that worked!
Organization = A better day and lasting memories.
Why Can't The Information Be Organized In One Location?
I understand why places/organizations have websites. I do.
But they don't take into consideration the user experience.
You don't have to spend hours sifting through website after website and clicking link after link to attempt to find the cost or days/hours of a location.
Nevermind, if they have an events page. Some websites still have events posted from 2016 and nothing else.
I like the fact of having everything easily accessible. By clicking a link you are taken to a working page, with all the information there for you.
I don't have the time or energy to try and figure things out. Do you?
Here IS what worked for me
I have worked tirelessly every single year, since starting HVE, to build a planning system that would help me more easily find things to see & do the best of the Hudson Valley.
Things that are often frustrating to me are:
Seasonal locations that change their open & close dates every year.
Special events posted to Facebook but not on the actual website of the location
Being unable to find clear hours of operation for a location
But, guess what?
I have taken the time to do all the work and have actually enjoyed creating this planning system.
I know, I'm such a nerd…
And now I'm offering my planning system to you.
I originally had made the planning system to encompass all 10 counties in the Hudson Valley and all price ranges, but then quickly realized that I wasn't interested in things that were too expensive for me. The old version wasn't practical.
So now…
The NEW Planning System is actually a Toolkit!
It helps you plan outings that cost $10 or less per person, offers tips for exploring and tips for getting ready for a short car ride or a road trip that may take a few hours.
Get the Toolkit that will
change your mind about How You
explore the hudson valley
Going out in the Hudson Valley does not have to be frustrating or expensive.
What if I told you that this list of 101+ Things to do
can be done for $10 or less?
This toolkit bundle is the perfect way to jumpstart your adventures in the Hudson Valley or add some new places to your already growing list.
Now, do you want to spend another weekend at home or take charge of the fun in your life and go out and have fun?
Are you ready???
Reach out to me at anytime: jackie(at)hudsonvalleyexposed(dot)com
Until the Next Adventure…

Q: Sort ListView by pressing a button I have a ListView and wish to sort it up and down. Here is the xaml
<ListView x:Name="ListRegister" ItemsSource="{Binding Registrations}" HasUnevenRows="True" SelectionMode="Single">
            <ListView.Behaviors>
                <b:EventToCommandBehavior EventName="ItemTapped" Command="{Binding CommandGoDetail}" EventArgsParameterPath="Item" />
            </ListView.Behaviors>
            <ListView.ItemTemplate>
                <DataTemplate>
                    <ViewCell>
                        <StackLayout>
                            <Frame >
                                <StackLayout>
                                   <Label Text="{Binding Date}" Style="{StaticResource registerItemDateText}"/>
                                </StackLayout>
                            </Frame>
                        </StackLayout>
                    </ViewCell>
                </DataTemplate>
            </ListView.ItemTemplate>
        </ListView>

As well as the "button" (alternates between my SortUp() and sortDown() functions). The button changes a text to "up" and "down" so I know it works on screen.
<TapGestureRecognizer Command="{Binding CommandSort}"/>

These function seem to work
Registrations.Sort((x, y) => DateTime.Compare(y.Date, x.Date));
Registrations.Sort((x, y) => DateTime.Compare(x.Date, y.Date));

The list is correctly sorted Up or Down when one of those functions is called but when the button is Pressed, the list does not updates itself to the other sorting.
Where did I mess up ?
EDIT :
CommandSort code
private void HandleSort(Registration obj)
        {
            if(SortRecent)
            {
                SortRecent = false;
                SortText = "Plus ancien";
                SortImageSource = "lightDownArrow";
                SortDown();
            }
            else
            {
                SortRecent = true;
                SortText = "Plus récent";
                SortImageSource = "lightUpArrow";
                SortUp();
            }
        }

Registrations is of type :
List<Registration> Registrations

A Registration having a string name, and a DateTime date

A: You need to check what type of data is Registrations. It must be an Observable Collection in order to inform the UI about the changes made to the model. If not, You will need to manually update the list view to reflect the changes made to the model, in this case, the new sorting direction. You could use :
ListView.BeginRefresh(); & ListView.EndRefresh(); to force the update of the list view. But it is highly recommended to change your list to an observable collection.

Arthur Cravan (born Fabian Avenarius Lloyd on May 22, 1887, Lausanne, Switzerland) was known as a pugilist, a poet, a larger-than-life character, and an idol of the Dada and Surrealism movements. He was the second son of Otho Holland Lloyd and Hélène Clara St. Clair. His brother, Otho, was born in 1885. His father's sister, Constance Mary Lloyd, was married to Irish poet Oscar Wilde. He changed his name to Cravan in 1912 in honour of his fiancée Renée Bouchet, who was born in the small village of Cravans in the department of Charente-Maritime in western France. Why he chose the name Arthur remains unclear.
Cravan was last seen at Salina Cruz, Mexico in 1918 and most likely drowned in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Mexico in November 1918.
3 Speculation
5 Popular culture
Cravan was born and educated in Lausanne, Switzerland, then at an English military academy from which he was expelled after spanking a teacher. After his schooling, during World War I, he travelled throughout Europe and America using a variety of passports and documents, some of them forged. He declared no single nationality and claimed instead to be "a citizen of 20 countries".
Cravan set out to promote himself as an eccentric and an art critic, though his interest was showing off a powerful, striking personal style rather than discussing art. He staged public spectacles and stunts with himself at the centre, once acting on the front of a line of carts where he paraded his skills as a boxer and singer, although he never pursued either of these activities on stage with anyone else. His style of looking for the striking and shocking had some roots in the contemporary cult of the young man of action (athletes, soldiers, flamboyant artists) but strongly prefigured dadaism.
From 1911 to 1915 he published a critical magazine, Maintenant! ("Now!") which appeared in five issues. It was gathered together and reprinted by Eric Losfeld in 1971 as J'étais Cigare in the dadaist collection "Le Désordre". The magazine was designed to cause sensation and in a piece about the 1912 arts salon he criticized a self-portrait by Marie Laurencin, remarks which drove her lover and influential modernist critic Guillaume Apollinaire to fury and a bid for a duel. But his rough vibrant poetry, and provocative, anarchistic lectures and public appearances (often degenerating into drunken brawls) also earned him the admiration of Marcel Duchamp, Francis Picabia, André Breton, and other young artists and intellectuals.
After the First World War began, Cravan left Paris to avoid being drafted into military service. On a stopover in the Canary Islands a boxing match was arranged between Cravan and the reigning world champion Jack Johnson to raise money for Cravan's passage to the United States. Posters for the match touted Cravan as "European champion." Johnson, who didn't know who the man was, knocked Cravan out solidly and in his autobiography noted that Cravan must have been out of training.
In retrospect, the incident has been cited as an archetypal example of the "anyone can reinvent himself" philosophy found in later artistic movements—Cravan didn't need to be a professional boxer to lay a claim on being world champion. His personal style involved continuous re-invention of his public persona, and outrageous statements and boasts. His pride in being the nephew of Oscar Wilde even produced hoaxes—documents and poems—Cravan wrote and then signed "Oscar Wilde". In 1913 he published an article in his self-edited review Maintenant claiming that his uncle was still alive and had visited him in Paris. The New York Times published the rumor, even though Cravan and Wilde never met.
After arriving in New York in 1914 where he met the poet Mina Loy, then moved on to Mexico three years later for the same reason when the United States entered the war. After their marriage in 1918 they planned a trip from Mexico to Argentina. Without enough money for both of them to book passage on the same vessel, Loy took the trip on a regular ship and Cravan set out alone on a sailboat to Argentina. Cravan never arrived and it is presumed that he capsized and drowned in a storm raging at sea in the following days.
A biographical graphic novel on the life of Arthur Cravan has been published by Dark Horse Comics. Titled Cravan and written by the company publisher, Mike Richardson, illustrated by Rick Geary, this biography puts forth the idea that Arthur Cravan and B. Traven might be one and the same.
"Every great artist has the sense of provocation."
Arthur Cravan features as the focus for the novel Last Stop Salina Cruz (2007) by British novelist David Lalé. The novel tells the story of a young man following in the footpaths of the modernist legend across France, Spain, USA, Mexico and finally Salina Cruz.
"Shadow Box" by Antonia Logue (Bloomsbury paperbacks 2000) - A fictional version of the interweaving of the lives of Craven, Loy and Jack Johnson, the first black heavyweight champion of the world.
The 2002 film "Cravan vs. Cravan" by Spanish director Isaki Lacuesta traces Cravan's history through reenactments featuring boxer and filmmaker Frank Nicotra.

'American Gladiators' Is Coming to Theaters!
American Gladiators Is Coming to Theaters!
Johnny Ferraro is taking his American Gladiators TV franchise and adapting it into a live-action full-length feature.
According to Variety, the film will be based on the TV show that first aired in 1988 and has been on the air every year except one during the past 20 years. Most recently, NBC aired a primetime installment in 2008. The show has aired in more than 90 countries, with the format adapted for the local market in 14 of them.
Former Legendary Pictures chief marketing officer Scott Mednick is producing American Gladiators. The goal is to create an action story that takes place inside the world Ferraro has created.
"I look forward to creating a compelling story that launches a whole new set of characters," Mednick said.
No production date has been set.

Newcastle United takeover: Saudi deal must be blocked, MP tells government
Newcastle have been owned by Mike Ashley since 2007
The government has been urged to block the Saudi Arabia-led takeover of Newcastle United until it investigates TV piracy in the country.
Earlier this week the World Trade Organisation (WTO) ruled that Saudi Arabia helped breach international piracy laws in relation to the broadcaster beoutQ.
It has been accused of illegally broadcasting a range of professional sport, including the Premier League.
Angus MacNeil, chair of the International Trade Select Committee, has now written to trade secretary Liz Truss to voice his concerns.
In a letter seen by BBC Sport, MacNeil says: "As you would have seen, the WTO has made a landmark ruling on the protection of sports rights, which is one of the UK's most valuable and treasured exports.
"In its ruling, the WTO held that the government of Saudi Arabia has, from the beginning, been actively… supporting the 'beoutQ' piracy operation that has stolen the commercial rights of UK sports bodies for three years."
The rights to show Premier League games in the Middle East belong to Qatar-based beIN Sports, who are currently in the middle of a three-year deal with the Premier League worth £400m.
Saudi Arabia has always denied aiding the beoutQ operation and has insisted there is no link between its government and the alleged piracy.
"This is an insult to the UK government, affront to the Premier League, and abuse of UK sport – and should not be tolerated," wrote MacNeill.
"This is relevant today, right now, because the very entity that has been stealing premium UK sports and entertainment content is attempting to buy a major UK sporting institution – Newcastle United Football Club.
MacNeil said that in light of the WTO ruling "the UK government must now play its part in protecting our creative industry exports by investigating the launch, promotion and operation of the beoutQ service."
"Quite simply, if Saudi Arabia is unwilling to play by the rules of international law, then it should have no role in the future of UK sport."
The proposed £300m Newcastle takeover deal is 80% financed by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, whose chairman is Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
"Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund – which the government of Saudi Arabia owns and controls – should not be allowed to acquire Newcastle United Football Club until this investigation is completed."
It is currently awaiting approval via the Premier League's owners and directors test, which looks into the background of prospective club owners.
Part of that involves analysing whether there has been any alleged involvement in criminality.
Premier League lawyers have been assessing the deal for two months.
In April the government indicated it would not intervene, saying it was a matter for the Premier League.
However, this week Dominic Raab, the foreign secretary, said: "I think it's right that that legal due process […] is followed and we have this debate about takeovers in this country. I think we should follow the rule of law."
The Premier League, Fifa, Uefa, La Liga and the Bundesliga have all tried to bring about proceedings in Saudi courts, but have been blocked by the country's government.

Equity crowdfunding websites are turning start-ups into a properly investable asset class, opening the sector up to more risk-averse investors
by Andrew Davis
The internet bubble that peaked two decades ago, as 1999 became 2000, has a lot to answer for. Dragon's Den, for a start. This show, which has been through 16 series and 17 dragons to date, is based on a Japanese TV format, The Tigers of Money, with its roots in the internet boom years. Aired in Japan from 2001 to 2004, it was subsequently sold to producers around the world, reaching the UK in 2005 and going on to spawn local versions in around 30 countries.
The fascination with start-ups and multimillionaire entrepreneurs that took hold during the late 90s internet bubble, when vast paper fortunes were made and lost overnight, has embedded itself deeply in our popular culture. When the world's first equity crowdfunding website, Crowdcube, launched on 15 February 2011, its British co-founders, Darren Westlake and Luke Lang, declared, "Instead of competing for limited business angel or venture capital funding, start-ups can use Crowdcube as a platform to connect with a nation of 'armchair dragons'." Crucially, the entrepreneurs vowed that anyone would be able to invest in start-ups with as little as £10.
Eight years on from its emergence, equity crowdfunding has attracted hundreds of thousands of private investors and hundreds of millions of pounds of equity to back early-stage, extremely high-risk ventures. There have so far been very few standout successes and numerous flops and failures – exactly as you would expect in what is undoubtedly the riskiest area of equity investment.
Many critics argue, with considerable justification, that making it easy for anyone who fancies it to put small sums into a start-up business is a recipe for losses and disappointment. They are right. Trying to pick the winners from a menu of start-up pitches on a website is closer to punting on the horses than it is to investment.
But what about those – admittedly the minority – who want to invest in start-ups as a broad asset class, rather than trying to pick individual winners? Online equity crowdfunding websites make that possible, because they allow us to divide our money between scores or hundreds of pitches, committing as little as a few pounds to each. That was never possible before these sites came along. Instead, an angel investor would have had to put at least £10,000 into each venture: building a well-diversified portfolio of start-ups required six-figure sums.
Picking the winners from a menu of start-up pitches is closer to punting on the horses than to investment
However, while making it possible to invest in start-ups as an asset class, the crowdfunding websites do not make it easy. This is why I've been watching developments at a couple of the main equity crowdfunding websites with some interest. Over the past year or two, both SyndicateRoom and Seedrs have opened funds that allow investors to put their money into a single vehicle (with Enterprise Investment Scheme tax relief) that automatically spreads it across a large group of start-ups pitching for funding on their websites. The idea is to produce a well-diversified portfolio (100 businesses in the case of Seedrs, around 30 with SyndicateRoom) that gives decent odds of a positive return. While SyndicateRoom's fund is aimed at wealthy individuals able to subscribe a minimum of £10,000, investors can put as little as £1,000 into the Seedrs fund.
The key to both funds is obviously diversification – for all practical purposes, the start-up investor's only true friend. High minimum investment thresholds are not the only reason diversification in start-ups has been hard to achieve historically. Another is that the specialist funds previously on offer had very concentrated portfolios, often containing fewer than ten companies. At that level, the benefits of diversification are limited.
The arrival of funds with much broader early-stage portfolios is a step forward. However, important questions remain. Are the charges reasonable? How diversified are they in practice? A fund that contains ten aspiring boutique spirit brands, for example, will be less diversified than its investors might suppose. To be more sceptical still, might managers of the equity crowdfunding website relax their criteria for accepting start-up pitches, telling themselves that diversification alone will be enough to protect their investors' interests?
The best answer I can give is that I hope not. With funds like these we are seeing the start of something new: start-ups are becoming a properly investable asset class, rather than a collection of betting slips. The investors who use these funds won't make ten times their money, but they can hope to make a positive, uncorrelated return by adding some venture capital-type risk to a more conventional portfolio.
Sadly, for most, that will prove far too dull a proposition – human nature being what it is, we will prefer to continue investing as though we were on Dragon's Den. But if, instead, we put most of our stake on the sort of each-way bets these funds offer, the odd 100/1 shot wouldn't hurt.

Q: Как инициализировать bxslider во вплывающем окне? Здравствуйте. Вопрос в следующем.
По клику на ссылку вызываю всплывающее окно (fancybox), внутрь которого загружаю другим скриптом (bxslider) галерею фото. Окно показываю так:
$('.gallery-link').fancybox({
    padding: 0,
    helpers : {
        overlay : {
            locked : false

        }
    },
    afterLoad: function(){
        showGallery();
    },
    afterClose: function(){
        destroyGallery();
    }
});

showGallery - это функция, которой я, используя bxslider, формирую нужную мне галерею, код ниже:
 function showGallery(){

if ($('.gallery-thumbs-list').length > 0) {

    var thumb = $('.gallery-thumbs-list').find('.thumb');

    var visibleThumbs = 6;

    //Слайдер больших фото
    gallerySlider = $('.gallery-images').bxSlider({
        controls: true,
        pager: false,
        easing: 'easeInOutQuint',
        infiniteLoop: true,
        speed: 500,
        mode: 'fade',
        minSlides: 1,
        maxSlides: 1,
        slideWidth: 700,
        onAfterSlide: function (currentSlideNumber) {
            thumb.removeClass('pager-active');
            thumb.eq(currentSlideNumber).addClass('pager-active');
        },
        onNextSlide: function (currentSlideNumber) {
            slideThumbs(currentSlideNumber, visibleThumbs);
        },
        onPrevSlide: function (currentSlideNumber) {
            slideThumbs(currentSlideNumber, visibleThumbs);
        }
    });

    thumb.click(function (e) {

        gallerySlider.goToSlide($(this).closest('.thumb-item').index() - 6);

        e.preventDefault();
    });

    function slideThumbs(currentSlideNumber, visibleThumbs) {

        var m = Math.floor(currentSlideNumber / visibleThumbs);
        var slideTo = m * visibleThumbs;

        thumbsSlider.goToSlide(slideTo);
    }

    $('.gallery-thumbs-list').find('.thumb').click(function () {

        $('.gallery-thumbs-list').find('.thumb').removeClass('pager-active');
        $(this).addClass('pager-active');

    });

    //Слайдер миниатюр для навигации
    thumbsSlider = $('.gallery-thumbs-list').bxSlider({
        controls: false,
        pager: false,
        easing: 'easeInOutQuint',
        displaySlideQty: visibleThumbs,
        moveSlideQty: visibleThumbs,
        minSlides: 1,
        maxSlides: 8,
        slideWidth: 73,
        slideMargin: 20
    });
    }
}

Все ок, за исключением одного: всплывающее окно появляется пустым. Контролы слайдера на месте, но фоток нет. Но если в этот момент попробовать ресайзить окно браузера, то - вуаля! - фотки загружаются, все работает как нужно.
Подскажите, пожалуйста, в чем может быть проблема.
Заранее благодарю за помощь.
A: Попробуйте воспользоваться функцией reloadSlider после прогрузки окна.
afterShow: function(){
     gallerySlider.reloadSlider({
    ...
     );
}
A: Решил.
Добавил в обработчик afterShow() fancybox вызов gallerySlider.reloadSlider();
A: Предыдущий комментарий верен. Я лишь немного дополню. В момент инициализации слайдера контейнер и элементы слайдера должны быть видимыми, чтобы скрипт мог вычислить размеры. При расположении слайдера в окне Fancybox видимым он становится в тот момент, когда Fancybox показывает нам окно, поэтому после показа окна (по коллбэку afterShow) нам нужно либо запустить инициализацию слайдера:
gallerySlider = $('.gallery-images').bxSlider({
    controls: true,
    pager: false,
    easing: 'easeInOutQuint',
    infiniteLoop: true,
    speed: 500,
    mode: 'fade',
    minSlides: 1,
    maxSlides: 1,
    slideWidth: 700,
    onAfterSlide: function (currentSlideNumber) {
        thumb.removeClass('pager-active');
        thumb.eq(currentSlideNumber).addClass('pager-active');
    },
    onNextSlide: function (currentSlideNumber) {
        slideThumbs(currentSlideNumber, visibleThumbs);
    },
    onPrevSlide: function (currentSlideNumber) {
        slideThumbs(currentSlideNumber, visibleThumbs);
    }
});

либо перегрузить его, если он был инициализирован ранее:
gallerySlider.reloadSlider();

By THIBAULT LARGER
with Paola Tamma, Giorgio Leali, Saim Saeed, and Kalina Oroschakoff
— The Commission is launching a preliminary assessment of how to price carbon at Europe's border to ensure EU competitiveness with countries that have lower environmental standards.
— EU internal market chief Thierry Breton doesn't like the word "champions," and stresses he's also out to help SMEs. That said, he's insistent that DG COMP has to change merger rules and drop its fixation on consumer prices.
— Swedish enterprises think that enforcing the single market is the only way for the EU to up competitiveness.
Good morning, and welcome to Fair Play. Ryanair's boss Michael O'Leary has not got as much time as we have for the EU's industrial strategy. When our colleague Saim asked the notoriously sweary Irishman in an interview what he thought of Brussels' plans, he retorted: "Industrial policy? There isn't one. They're making one on the hoof." Like many observers, he also reckoned the Germans had been getting an easy ride from DG COMP. "When Lufthansa's allowed to buy Air Berlin in Phase 1 with no remedies at all, Europe's reputation as an effective arbiter of competition policy is frankly zero ... I think it would be difficult to lower my faith in the European Commission as an effective regulator since they have always been horrendously ineffective regulators." The full Q&A is fun, and sweary.

DRIVING THE DAY
CO2 PRICING AT EUROPE'S BORDER: Watch out today for an "inception impact assessment" on the EU's carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBA), as well as one on reviewing the bloc's energy taxation rules. The Commission is due to publish both here. "We are very much in favor of this mechanism because we think that it is indeed very important for certain sectors which are highly carbon intensive," Internal Market Commissioner Thierry Breton said in an interview with Paola and Marion.
What do we know so far? The Commission will launch an impact assessment on a few sectors at risk of carbon leakage. It will mention steel and cement, while energy imports through cross-border power cables are also being looked at, according to an EU official. The Commission is still undecided whether the CBA will be a tax or a mechanism under the bloc's Emissions Trading System (ETS) obliging importers of certain products to purchase emission permits. It will float both options in the impact assessment. Timing-wise, we're due to see proposals (on the CBA, and on energy taxation) in June 2021, along with a revision of the ETS. The three are connected, and should go together, according to the official.
How to get around unanimity? To impose an EU-wide tax, there must be EU-wide consensus — a huge headache and a guaranteed fail under current circumstances. But the Commission can, under Article 192 of the treaty, ask EU countries to lift unanimity for matters related to the bloc's energy mix. This option, known as the 'passerelle clause,' will be hinted at in today's documents. Either way, EU leaders will need to unanimously agree to lift their veto. "Unanimity is needed at some point," said the EU official.
The critics are outspoken: Europe's CBA isn't born yet, and it's already getting the shrug from policy experts. In a paper titled "Much Pain, Little Gain," due to be published this week which POLITICO has previewed, Bruegel think-thankers Georg Zachmann and Ben McWilliams dissect the CBA: "There is little in the way of strong empirical evidence that would justify a carbon-adjustment measure," they write, adding that economic modeling finds little evidence of carbon leakage risks, even under a high ETS price scenario. What's more, "significant logistical, legal and political challenges will arise" when designing a CBA, requiring Brussels to think hard about optimal but impracticable solutions or opt for "mainly symbolic" but actionable ones. They also argue that even if well-meant, a CBA could lead to political lobbying for and "the temptation for 'cascading protectionism,'" as non-targeted sectors ask for their own form of protection against carbon leakage. All in all, not a great picture. Ouch. The paper will be presented at this livestreamed Bruegel event on Thursday.
BRETON DISTANCING HIMSELF FROM (THE WORD) CHAMPIONS: Europe's internal market chief Thierry Breton bristles at the word "champion." In an interview with POLITICO, he acknowledged that the word has become politically tainted and argues (somewhat against the consensus on market power dymanics) that bulked up titans shouldn't harm ecosystems of SMEs. He sticks to his guns on reviewing the competition rulebook, which he says overemphasizes consumer prices rather than robust companies. We also learn that he's into fossils, meteorites and quantum physics. Who isn't? Read the full interview with Paola and Marion here or pasted below.
EPP MOVES IN: The debate on competition rules' reforms is getting more political as the center-right European People's Party (EPP) steps onto the pitch. On Monday Manfred Weber, chairman of the EPP Group in the European Parliament, sent a letter to Commissioners Vestager and Breton, first reported by the FT and obtained by POLITICO, calling for "a robust framework that still allows sufficient flexibility for EU champions to emerge and flourish." The letter also calls the EU competition framework "fragile" and stresses the need of changing public procurement rules to tackle unfair competition from state-backed Chinese companies.
Sector-specific merger rules: The letter doesn't provide any detail on how competition rules should be changed, but we hear from an EPP official that he wished it had come sooner. Still, the EPP likes the idea of "creating a regulatory framework that could [...] apply to certain strategic sectors," the official said. Choosing strategic sectors will be a political choice, he said, for which we feel there could be a fight amongst EU countries.
SINGLE MARKET
CROWN JEWEL: We had a chat about the EU's industrial future with Göran Grén, head of business policy and law at the Confederation of Swedish Enterprise. Sweden is becoming one of the most strident voices steering Europe's liberal agenda, and for Grén, the message is simple: "We need to defend our crown jewel, the single market."
The solution: Europe could be "in front of the line" despite weak trade rules "if we have strong competitive companies, and if they were leading the R&D race. If we were to develop new solutions to climate change, we would not have that kind of problem either." And of course, this could all be achieved with a strong commitment to enforcing the single market.
Changing the rules: If Europe politicizes the merger regime to create industrial champions, it will "create great huge zombies" and "perhaps they will not win." He is also thinks that those advocating new state aid and merger rules, like France, Germany and Poland should "bear the burden of proving" that there are more benefits run than costs taking into account both the short term and the long run. "Don't fix what ain't broken. Just enhance things that could be sharper," he said.
Intellectual property: Copyright, trademarks, patents, you name it. There should only be one set of EU rules on intellectual property according to Grén: "The EU should have a united IP framework, and a single strategy for IP." It should be at the core of the EU industrial strategy, he added because "that's where you make money."
Carbon tax: According to Grén, "if you design it wrong, we will shut down many of our own industries and it will not have the intended effect. It would also send a clear signal toward the world."
VALUE CHAINS
WIND, A STRATEGIC VALUE CHAIN TOO: EU lobby Wind Europe is calling for the wind sector to be included in strategic value chains, in a public statement published on Monday. Europe is at risk of losing its global leadership in wind vis-à-vis China, Wind Europe contends, especially in third countries as "they come with cheaper Government-backed finance and benefit from structural overcapacities built on inflated subsidy regimes." Wind energy is a "prerequisite to the success of strategic new value chains: low-carbon industry, clean mobility and renewable hydrogen," the lobby added.
And solar: It seems that Wind Europe is surfing on the wave Lithuania created in the last Competitiveness Council. Lithuania's Vice Economy Minister Marius Skuodis stressed on Thursday that "wind and solar energy is crucial to achieve the ambitions of the Green Deal." He also said that Lithuania is seeking "to include" renewables among the key strategic value chains "in the nearest future," especially wind and solar.
Vestager's team has a new member. DG COMP traditionally has a habit of missing one of these in a room.
POLITICO PRO ARTICLE
Thierry Breton: Europe's big players won't crush the little guys
— By Paola Tamma and Marion Solletty
Europe's internal market chief Thierry Breton bristles at the word "champion."
While Europe's top powers want the industrial strategy that launches on March 10 to create "European champions" to rival the corporate powerhouses of the U.S. and China, he acknowledges that the phrase has become politically toxic.
"Semantics are important in politics. Personally, I don't like this term 'champions,' and I don't use it," he told POLITICO in an interview.
His problem is that more traditionally free-trading Nordic and Baltic countries see the doctrine of "champions" as a trap. They fear that the impending industrial strategy means the EU will lavish attention on Franco-German luminaries like train-maker Alstom and auto giant Volkswagen to the detriment of small businesses and a competitive single market.
Breton, himself a former chief executive of the French tech heavyweight Atos, was at pains to insist that supporting big players did not mean that their smaller suppliers would struggle for oxygen.
"Everything is linked and we can't build dichotomies between the two," he said, and offered the car industry as an example of a sector where a few big brands fed an ecosystem of suppliers throughout Europe. "We need a web of small and medium-sized enterprises … as well as some European leaders that are perfectly integrated in this web."
Despite such assurances, countries like Sweden and the Netherlands are mobilizing a political counterblast across the EU to try to ensure that the single market and core principles of free trade don't fall victim to a Franco-German industrial onslaught.
While Breton denied the EU was veering toward anything like a "planned economy," he also stressed that a critical moment had come to rally behind technologies that would determine Europe's future for decades.
For that reason, he argued Europe needed to change its long sacrosanct methodology for making competition decisions. Crucially, he insisted that Brussels had overemphasized the importance given to keeping prices low for consumers in its big merger decisions, and should give equal weight to looking after key businesses.
"Reducing prices for consumers has often been put front and center," he said of the EU's thinking in competition law. "We need to put businesses back on the same level."
The European Commission's decision to block a merger in the rail sector last year between Alstom and Siemens looms large in moves to review the antitrust rulebook. While the Commission argued that a rail behemoth would harm consumers, France insisted not enough attention was given to the importance of forging a European engineering titan that could hold its own against China.
A strategy for the ages
Speaking at his office in the Commission's Berlaymont headquarters in Brussels, where he keeps a collection of trilobite fossils and a chunk of meteorite, Breton digressed about his interest in time and quantum physics.
An engineer by training, there was more than a hint of scientific language in his descriptions of the strategic decisions that Europe needed to make. While the industrial strategy was not perhaps a question of geological time, he stressed the stakes were still high as the EU would have to "integrate these very powerful forces that will change the way we produce in Europe in the next 30 years."
"Europe today is the first industrial continent and our role is for it to keep this place" without being "naïve" and taking into account "the geopolitical evolution of balance of powers," he said.
One of the great sources of speculation in Brussels is whether Breton's industrial agenda will pit him against competition chief Margrethe Vestager, custodian of the antitrust rulebook.
The potential stresses in the relationship were on full display in Bruges on Monday, when Vestager told an audience: "You don't build strong champions by picking a favorite, and protecting them from competition in Europe. You do it by giving everyone a fair chance."
The Frenchman, however, rejected the idea that his vision put him at odds with the Danish commissioner and noted that a review of the bloc's competition rules appeared in Commission President Ursula von der Leyen's mission letters to her commissioners.
"It's not me who's saying it. It's Mrs. von der Leyen," he said. "You will never find the slightest distance between the commissioners since we are only applying the line indicated [by] the president of the Commission … we're all united."
One of the ways in which the Commission will promote EU industry is through so-called Important Projects of Common European Interest — where countries will be allowed to use greater state largesse to rear low-carbon and high-tech industries like hydrogen, batteries, robotics and more.
One early project, on battery production, saw seven EU countries pour €3.2 billion of taxpayers' money into a production line in Europe.
"We found a solution to be able to give a long-term perspective to investments that need it," Breton said. "We're not in a planned economy ... We're in an economy whereby giving the framework, the vision, we give a formidable boost for innovation."

weaker solution was equally effective. The result of this method of treatment was an almost immediate relief from the pain. After each application of the dressings the patients complained of a slight sense of smarting thronghout the breast. Care was taken to wash the nipples thoroughly before putting the baby to the breast. In the cases reported by Dr. Haussmann the mothers were able to nurse the children within a few hours after the application of the acid, and the nipples were entirely healed within two days. The Treatment of Placenta Prævia. — In a paper recently read be
fore the Medical Society of the District of Columbia, Dr. J. T. Johnson calls attention to the high rate of mortality observed in cases of placenta prævia, as regards both the mother and child. The frequent recurrence of bæmorrhages so exhausts the mother that when the time of actual labor arrives she is in no condition whatever to bear the hæmorrhage which usually accompanies the dilatation of the os. The child, too, for the same reason, is very frequently sacrificed, even when the mother's life is saved. He strongly dissents from the treatment generally adopted in such cases, and advises that in all cases where the existence of a placenta prævia has been clearly diagnosticated, premature labor should be induced before the occurrence of exhausting hæmorrhages. In cases where labor has already begun, he favors the immediate introduction of a catheter, and the withdrawal of the liquor amnii. The uterus is thus at once provoked to greater activity, and, moreover, can act to a better advantage. The head, if that be the presenting part, is driven down, and, as the cervix dilates, the pressure of the head controls the hæmorrhage. The introduction of a sponge or laminaria tent, followed later by the use of Barnes's dilators, hastens the dilatation. In this way version may be avoided. Where version must be performed Dr. Johnson advises that bimanual version be tried, rather than that the hand should be forcibly carried within the uterine cavity through the imperfectly dilated os. In conclusion, he states that he is firmly convinced that in proper cases, and when seen in time, the induction of premature labor will save many lives, both fætal and maternal; and also, that when the above-mentioned gentle means of dilating and at the same time plugging the cervix are universally adopted, the fearful mortality in these cases will be greatly reduced.
Use of Disinfecting Injections into the Uterus after Delivery. — In our last report of progress we gave a résumé of several recent writings, all of which favored the use of disinfecting injections during the puerperal state. Since then two communications have appeared," written by Küstner and Fritsch respectively. In both of these the attention of the profession is called to the danger which is liable to follow a too free use of disinfectants in washing out the cavity of the uterus after deliv
i Centralblatt für Gynäkologie, xiv. 16.
ery. In the cases observed by these writers the symptoms were unmistakably those of acute poisoning. Dr. Küstner's case proved fatal, and at the autopsy it appeared that the uterus itself had not in any way been injured by the introduction of the syringe. Yet there had been suddenly developed unconsciousness, contraction of the pupils of the eyes, rapid respiration, dyspnea, and a weak and scarcely perceptible pulse. The muscles of the face were convulsed, the head was thrown backwards, the jaws were fixed, and a cold sweat covered the patient. In from ten to fifteen minutes the patient improved considerably. Half an hour later the patient vomited a black vomitus, and the urine drawn by a catheter was black. The disinfecting solution used in this case was one part of carbolic acid to twenty of water.
Dr. Fritsch reports three cases in which most dangerous symptoms arose. In one of these cases the disinfectant used was salicylic acid, and in two carbolic acid. In all of them there was a sudden collapse, followed by unconsciousness and a very rapid pulse. In the two cases in which carbolic acid had been used there was observed the same discoloration of the urine. These three cases recovered. In all of them the uterus was imperfectly contracted.
Both observers regarded these symptoms as due to the very rapid poisoning of the patient by the entrance of the disinfecting agent into the circulation through the patulous sinuses of the imperfectly contracted uterus. They still strongly favor the use of a disinfecting irrigation of the puerperal uterus in all cases in which the attendant has reason to suspect any putrid absorption, but they both recommend that, in all such cases, the injection should be performed with the greatest care, and that especially the introduction of a forcible stream should always be carefully avoided.
PROCEEDINGS OF THE BOSTON SOCIETY FOR MEDICAL
OBSERVATION.
A. M. SUMNER, M. D., SECRETARY.
APRIL 1, 1878. Syphilis. — Dr. G. H. M. Rowe read a paper on Mental Derangement from Syphilis, which was reserved for publication.
Dr. Norton Folsom doubted if in many so-called cases of cerebral syphilis there is any other relation or connection between the cerebral manifestations and the syphilitic poison than that which exists in other debilitating or degenerative diseases. We see in asylums patients suffering from insanity who have subsequently contracted syphilis without producing any change in the course of their mental symptoms. He objected to the term " cerebral syphilis," and thought it better to use the expression " insanity complicating syphilis."
Dr. Ellis thought that to show that syphilis is a potent cause of mental disorder, such as the reader has described, it would be necessary to prove that insanity is more common in those suffering from syphilis than in those not so affected ;
he doubted if this point had yet been established. Dr. C. F. Folsom remarked that he thought it impossible to determine definitely whether syphilis causes mental disease or not until we intimately know what that condition of the cells of the brain is that produces insanity. Gummata or other tumors, local inflammations, thickening of the membranes, ostitis and periostitis, for instance, are all sometimes attended with cerebral derangement, and often not; why, however, we do not know, but we may reasonably conclude that the by no means infrequent cases of mental derangement which are not attended with much debility or general symptoms of ill health, and which recover rapidly under a judicious antisyphilitic treatment, are of syphilitic origin, or dependent on the pathological condition produced by that disease.
Dr. Rowe referred to various articles written by Wille, Skae, Cluster, and Stewart, which seem to show that there are special symptoms indicative of mental derangement depending upon syphilis, and said that he noticed a remarkable similarity in the symptoms noted in his cases and in those reported in the above-mentioned authorities. Dr. Rowe added that there was a wide discrepancy in the conclusions derived from English and German observations regarding the frequency of cerebral derangement in syphilitic disease. One English writer asserts that one in forty of all cases of insanity is of syphilitic origin, while a German investigator in the insane asylums of Germany reports only one case out of nine hundred.
Dr. Bowditch thought that we could never determine the relative frequency of the complication until each insane asylum had a pathologist connected with it. He asked Dr. Rowe how many were thus provided at the
present time.
Dr. Rowe replied that the number of insane asylums in the United States which have pathologists connected with them does not exceed six out of eighty; but the time was not far distant when the majority of enterprising asylums would have such an officer for the investigation of mental diseases.
Brain Tumor. Dr. C. E. STEDMAN showed a tumor, probably glioma, situated in the middle of the left hemisphere of the brain, and gave the following history of the case : The patient, a man forty-six years of age, was seized early in last December with a convulsive attack, losing consciousness and biting his tongue. This lasted nearly an hour, and recurred often during the following months. When first seen by Dr. Stedman, six weeks after the symptoms manifested themselves, his mind was clear, there was partial loss of sensation and motion of the right cheek, the orbicularis was unimpaired, and the tongue was protruded somewhat toward the right. There was partial aphasia and slight loss of the sense of taste. Large doses of bromide of potassium stopped the attacks, but his general health began to fail, the aphasia became complete, loss of motion on the right side followed, and he died three months after his first convulsive attack.
New Instrument. — Dr. Baker showed an instrument designed by himself
for measuring the vagina for the purpose of a proper application of pessaries. He also showed a flexible uterine sound made from delicate springs covered hy india rubber, the external end of the instrument giving the reverse position of the uterine flexion. Syphilis. — DR. J. B. Ayer reported a case of necrosis of the frontal
— bone in tertiary syphilis. The patient, thirty-five years of age, contracted syphilis from her husband. The first history of the case was in November, 1871, when she suffered from ulcerated sore throat and cephalalgia. In a fortnight the uvula was destroyed, in spite of free applications of nitric acid. Under mercury and chlorate of potash gargle she did well until October, 1872, when abscesses formed on the outer side of the thigh. These continued to discharge and heal for over a year. In October, 1873, the cephalalgia returned. She became cross and irritable, and lost flesh rapidly. In April, 1874, coryza was well marked, and in November of the same year pieces of the turbinated bone came away. The patient had been taking iodide of potassium, but now mercury was added. This she continued to take for five months. In January, 1875, a slight swelling like a pimple appeared on the forehead over the left eyebrow. This broke a few weeks later, showing necrosed bone beneath. The opening gradually increased in size, and a little over a year ago a similar swelling appeared over the right eye, which opened and gradually enlarged. Carbolic ointment was ordered, but she became discouraged, and only used the ointment until last September, when she was persuaded to begin treatment again. Iodide of potassium was ordered, and the dose gradually increased, until she was taking twenty-three grains three times a day. She also used a Ditric acid wash.
January 21st. The necrosed bone being movable, the patient was etherized at the Massachusetts General Hospital, and it was removed. Both tables of the skull were necrosed. The patient came out-of-doors in eight weeks, and is now attending to her duties in her shop. The wounds are slowly closing in around the edges. She has had a slight attack of erysipelas lasting two days, and an occasional headache, which yields to bromide of potash in a few moments. She has gained ten pounds during the past two months, and is greatly improved in every respect. The patient is now taking biniodide of mercury and iodide of potassium in a solution of gentian and cinchonia.
Tumor of Uterus. — Dr. BUCKINGHAM showed a body weighing two or three ounces, which had been examined by Dr. Fitz and pronounced fibroid tumor of the uterus. It came from a woman of fifty-two, who had been under treatment since the middle of January, at which time she was seen by Dr. Chadwick with him. The uterus was distended so as to be impacted in the pelvis, and to cause great annoyance by pressure on the urethra. She was given twenty drops of the fluid extract of ergot three times a day, which caused bo great annoyance for three days, when the pain became severe and pretty constant, so that although the ergot was stopped she was unable to sleep without an opiate. The pain disappeared in the course of ten days, and towards the end of February the ergot was resumed in ten-drop doses, gradually increased to fifteen, when shreds began to come away, and two weeks later the present mass was expelled after three hours' pain, since which she has rapidly gained.
April 21, 1878. Officinal and Unofficinal Preparations of Medicine. Dr. ROBERT Amory read a paper on Certain Facts in Regard to Officinal and Unofficinal Preparations of Medicine, as follows:
I visited four of our principal pharmaceutists in Boston, one in the central portion of the city, one at the West End, one at the South End, and one in Roxbury. I endeavored to select those pharmacists who were most ambitious in the professional standing of pharmacy. After an examination of their prescription books, covering the prescriptions for one month which they had actually dispensed, I subdivided these into the following six classes: (1.) Those which contained unofficinal preparations ; in other words, those whose formula is known, but which are not recognized by the United States Pharmacopeia. (2.) Those which contained certain proprietary medicines, or, in other words, trade-mark preparations, such as Horsford's acid phosphate, etc. (3.) Those prescriptions which called for proprietary medicine alone. (4.) Those composed of private prescriptions, known, for instance, only to the prescriber and to the dispensing pharmacist, but not published. (5.) Those containing only United States Pharmacopæia preparations. (6.) Preparations according to any other national Pharmacopæia.
By reference to the accompanying statistics of two thousand six hundred and seven prescriptions, we find that less than one fifth are unofficinal, and less than three fourths (sixty-five per cent.) are officinal, whereas seven per cent. are proprietary or patent medicinal preparations. A careful examination of this table will show that our Pharmacopæia in seven years and a half after its conception covers only sixty-five per cent of the physicians' prescriptions dispensed by our best druggists. This indicates one of two things,
that our physicians are unfamiliar with the Pharmacopæia, or that the latter does not answer the requirements of the medical profession.
Diphtheria and Erysipelas. Dr. F. C. Shattuck read a paper on An Outbreak of Diphtheria and Erysipelas in a Small Hospital, which was published in the JOURNAL July 18, 1878.
DR. AMORY considered the question of diphtheria an open one. In his limited experience, during the past winter, of four cases, — three in one house and one in another, – the fact that these children, for weeks prior to the diph

Thank you for coming to us in looking for "Lisk Wallet Info" online. Just a fraction of bitcoins issued so far can be found on the exchange markets. Bitcoin markets are competitive, which suggests the cost a bitcoin will rise or fall depending on supply and demand. Many people hoard them for long term savings and investment. This limits the quantity of bitcoins that are truly circulating in the exchanges. In addition, new bitcoins will continue to be issued for decades to come. Hence, even the most diligent buyer could not purchase all present bitcoins. This scenario is not to imply that markets will not be vulnerable to price exploitation, yet there is certainly no requirement for big amounts of money to transfer market prices up or down. The merest events on the planet economy can affect the cost of Bitcoin, This can make Bitcoin and any other cryptocurrency volatile. Bitcoin is the main cryptocurrency of the web: a digital money standard by which all other coins are compared to. Cryptocurrencies are distributed, international, and decentralized. Unlike conventional fiat currencies, there's no governments, banks, or any other regulatory agencies. As such, it really is more resistant to crazy inflation and corrupt banks. The advantages of using cryptocurrencies as your method of transacting cash online outweigh the protection and privacy threats. Security and seclusion can readily be realized by simply being intelligent, and following some basic guidelines. You'dn't put your whole bank ledger online for the word to see, but my nature, your cryptocurrency ledger is publicized. This can be fastened by removing any identity of possession from the wallets and thereby keeping you anonymous. This mining action validates and records the transactions across the whole network. So if you are trying to do something illegal, it is not wise because everything is recorded in the public register for the rest of the world to see forever. Cryptocurrency is freeing people to transact cash and do business on their terms. Each user can send and receive payments in a similar way, but they also be a part of more complex smart contracts. Multiple signatures enable a trade to be supported by the network, but where a particular number of a defined group of folks agree to sign the deal, blockchain technology makes this possible. This permits progressive dispute mediation services to be developed in the foreseeable future. These services could enable a third party to approve or reject a trade in the event of disagreement between the other parties without checking their cash. Unlike cash and other payment procedures, the blockchain constantly leaves public proof that the transaction happened. This can be potentially used within an appeal against companies with deceptive practices. Since one of the oldest forms of earning money is in money financing, it is a fact that one can do this with cryptocurrency. Most of the lending sites currently focus on Bitcoin, several of those sites you happen to be needed fill in a captcha after a particular period of time and are rewarded with a small amount of coins for seeing them. You can visit the www.cryptofunds.co web site to locate some lists of of these sites to tap into the money of your choice. Unlike forex, stocks and options, etc., altcoin markets have very different dynamics. New ones are always popping up which means they do not have a lot of market data and historical perspective for you to backtest against. Most altcoins have rather inferior liquidity as well and it is hard to develop an acceptable investment strategy.
You've probably noticed this many times where you usually distribute the nice word about crypto. "It's not erratic? What happens if the value failures? " So far, many POS programs presents free transformation of fiat, relieving some matter, but before volatility cryptocurrencies is resolved, a lot of people will be reluctant to put on any. We need to find a way to fight the volatility that's inherent in cryptocurrencies. The physical Internet backbone that carries data between the various nodes of the network is currently the work of a number of firms called Internet service providers (ISPs), which includes firms that provide long-distance pipelines, occasionally at the international level, regional local conduit, which ultimately joins in households and businesses. The physical connection to the Internet can only happen through one of these ISPs, players like level 3, Cogent, and IBM AT&T. Each ISP operates its own network. Internet service providers Exchange IXPs, owned or private firms, and occasionally by Governments, make for each of these networks to be interconnected or to move messages across the network. Many ISPs have agreements with providers of physical Internet backbone providers to offer Internet service over their networks for "last mile"-consumers and companies who desire to get Internet connectivity. Internet protocols, followed by everyone in the network causes it to be possible for the information to stream without interruption, in the correct area at the perfect time.
While none of these organizations "owns" the Internet together these firms decide how it works, and recognized rules and standards that everyone stays. Contracts and legal framework that underlies all that's happening to discover how things work and what happens if something goes wrong. To get a domain name, for example, one needs permission from a Registrar, which includes a contract with ICANN. To connect to the Internet, your ISP must be physical contracts with providers of Internet backbone services, and suppliers have contracts with IXPs from the Internet backbone to connect to and with her. Concern over security dilemmas? A working group is formed to focus on the problem and the alternative developed and deployed is in the interest of most parties. If the Internet is down, you've got someone to phone to get it fixed. If the problem is from your ISP, they in turn have contracts set up and service level agreements, which govern the way in which these problems are worked out.
The benefit of cryptocurrency is that it uses blockchain technology. The network of nodes the make up the blockchain is not governed by any focused firm. No one can tell the miners to upgrade, speed up, slow down, stop or do anything. And that's something that as a dedicated advocate badge of honor, and is identical to the way the Internet works. But as you comprehend now, public Internet governance, normalities and rules that govern how it works current built-in difficulties to an individual. Blockchain technology has none of that. For most users of cryptocurrencies it's not essential to understand how the procedure functions in and of itself, but it is simply important to understand that there is a process of mining to create virtual currency. Unlike monies as we know them today where Authorities and banks can just choose to print endless quantities (I am not saying they're doing thus, just one point), cryptocurrencies to be managed by users using a mining software, which solves the advanced algorithms to release blocks of monies that can enter into circulation. When searching forLisk Wallet Info, there are many things to think about.
Lisk Wallet Info: ETHEREUM Is The Future… Right!
Click here to visit our home page and learn more about Lisk Wallet Info. Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, LiteCoin, Ether, YOCoin, and many others have been designed as a non-fiat currency. In other words, its backers assert that there's "actual" value, even through there is no physical representation of that value. The value increases due to computing power, that is, is the lone way to create new coins distributed by allocating CPU electricity via computer programs called miners. Miners create a block after a time frame that is worth an ever diminishing amount of money or some form of wages so that you can ensure the shortage. Each coin includes many smaller units. For Bitcoin, each component is called a satoshi. Once created, each Bitcoin (or 100 million satoshis) exists as a cipher, that is part of the block that gave rise to it. The blockchain is where the public record of all trades dwells.
The fact that there's little evidence of any increase in the use of virtual money as a currency may be the reason there are minimal attempts to control it. The reason behind this could be merely that the marketplace is too small for cryptocurrencies to warrant any regulatory effort. It's also possible the regulators just do not comprehend the technology and its consequences, awaiting any developments to act. Mining cryptocurrencies is how new coins are placed into circulation. Because there's no government control and crypto coins are digital, they cannot be printed or minted to make more. The mining process is what makes more of the coin. It may be useful to think of the mining as joining a lottery group, the pros and cons are the same. Mining crypto coins means you will really get to keep the full rewards of your efforts, but this reduces your likelihood of being successful. Instead, joining a pool means that, overall, members are going to have much higher possibility of solving a block, but the benefit will be split between all members of the pool, predicated on the number of "shares" won.
If you're thinking about going it alone, it is worth noting the applications settings for solo mining can be more complicated than with a pool, and beginners would be probably better take the latter route. This option also creates a stable stream of earnings, even if each payment is modest compared to fully block the benefit. The sweetness of the cryptocurrencies is that scam was proved an impossibility: as a result of nature of the process in which it is transacted. All purchases on a crypto currency blockchain are irreversible. After youare paid, you get paid. This is not anything short term wherever your visitors could challenge or need a refunds, or use illegal sleight of hand. In practice, most dealers could be smart to make use of a fee processor, because of the irreversible nature of crypto currency purchases, you need to make certain that protection is tough. With any type of crypto currency may it be a bitcoin, ether, litecoin, or the numerous other altcoins, thieves and hackers may potentially gain access to your personal keys and so take your cash. Unfortunately, you most likely can never have it back. It's quite crucial for you to embrace some very good secure and safe routines when working with any cryptocurrency. Doing this can guard you from many of these damaging events. In case of the fully-functioning cryptocurrency, it could actually be dealt as a thing. Advocates of cryptocurrencies announce that this kind of electronic income is not managed by a key banking system and it is not therefore subject to the whims of its inflation. Because there are always a limited variety of goods, this moneyis benefit is founded on market forces, permitting owners to industry over cryptocurrency exchanges. Here is the coolest thing about cryptocurrencies; they do not physically exist everywhere, not even on a hard drive. When you examine a specific address for a wallet featuring a cryptocurrency, there is no digital information held in it, like in the same way a bank could hold dollars in a bank account. It is nothing more than a representation of value, but there's no genuine tangible type of that value. Cryptocurrency wallets may not be confiscated or frozen or audited by the banks and the law. They would not have spending limits and withdrawal limitations imposed on them. No one but the person who owns the crypto wallet can decide how their wealth will be managed.

It's certainly possible, but it must have the ability to recognize opportunities irrespective of market behaviour. The market moves in relation to cost BTC … So even supposing it's in a BTC tendency down can make money by buying the altcoins which are altcoin oversold trading ratios-BTC. Sure, your purchasing power in DOLLARS may be lower, but as long as your purchasing power in BTC is still growing you will be ok. You may run a search on the web. First learn, then models, indicators and most importantly practice looking at old charts and pick out trends. Anytime you learn to keep a trading diary screenshots and your comment/forecast. Precisely what is the best way to get confident with charts IMHO. Oh certainly, and don't fool yourself into thinking that you purchase the uptrend will never decrease! Always will go down! You will discover that incremental profits are more reliable and profitable (most times) It should be difficult to get more modest increases (~ 10%) throughout the day. Study the way to read these Candlestick charts! And I found these two rules to be accurate: having small increases is more rewarding than attempting to fight up to the peak. Most day traders follow Candlestick, so it is better to have a look at publications than wait for order confirmation when you believe the cost is going down. Second, there's more unpredictability and compensation in monies that haven't made it to the profitableness of sites like Coinwarz.
