Max Brault, A Developer Of The Accessible Canada Act, To Lead BDO Canada Accessibility Consulting
Toronto, October 3, 2019―Max Brault has a vision: To build community by showing the world that Canadians with disabilities contribute to society―and to successful business ventures.
Brault's business venture with BDO Canada began in September 2019, leading consulting on accessibility for the firm. Brault and BDO will work together to identify accessibility issues in Canada―for corporations, governments, and non-governmental agencies―and to provide strategic solutions to address them.
BDO Canada also worked with Brault to document the development of Bill C-81, the Accessible Canada Act (the Act), in a series of 5-minute videos available on YouTube and in a documentary that will be released on December 3, the International Day of Persons with Disabilities.
A person with a disability and a bilingual legislation and policy leader with almost 20 years of experience focused on employment equity and the advancement of workplace accessibility, Brault helped to guide the federal government toward progressive accessibility legislation.
Brault helped to develop the Accessible Canada Act. He was involved in:
Development of the strategy and implementation plan to help the federal public service be ready to meet the requirements of the Act
Development of a hub of strategic advice on the Act
Development of standards to help organizations identify, remove, and prevent barriers to accessibility in key areas
Development and implementation of an outreach initiative to engage people with disabilities in the development of the Act and the implementation strategy for Government of Canada organizations
Development of persons with disabilities champions and chairs' committee report
A recipient of the Golden Jubilee Medal and the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal, Brault has also represented persons with disabilities at the UN convention on accessibility.
"BDO becomes a national leader in helping organizations meet the requirements of the Accessible Canada Act and in realizing the benefits of a diverse and inclusive workforce, with Max's contributions to our team," notes Harry Lake, a partner with BDO Consulting (Strategy and Operations).
BDO is a leading provider of professional services to clients of all sizes in virtually all business sectors. Our team delivers a comprehensive range of assurance, accounting, tax, and advisory services, complemented by a deep industry knowledge gained from nearly 100 years working within local communities. As part of the international BDO network, we're able to provide seamless and consistent cross-border services to clients with global needs.

Q: Why is MYSQL Explain Showing Nearly Twice the Number of Rows I have a table called runner, it has 1159082 rows. If I do this :
SELECT count(*) from runner
WHERE raceid between 20010300 AND 20030399;
I get  10999, exactly as expected. However, if I run an explain on that query I get:

Why is the number of rows processed 20.98k? There are only 10999 rows in that range, where did the others come from? There's no join that could have gone wrong. I have tried it with a small table and the number of rows is correct but in this big one it's wrong. Could it be because the raceid is not sequential?

A: Thanks Nico,
Yes, that does answer the question. I did some more experiments and found that as soon as an extra column was added outside of the index the estimated rows doubled. From reading that post I'm guessing it doesn't really matter much but the query performance seems to have dropped through the floor all of a sudden, hence my reason for looking at the explain. I'll need to go back and look at it again.
Thanks for your help.

Lewis Gould Honored as Inaugural Recipient of FLARE Award
Lewis L. Gould
Lewis L. Gould, the Eugene Barker centennial professor emeritus of history at the University of Texas at Austin and former fellow of the Briscoe Center for American History, has been named the inaugural recipient of an award that recognizes distinguished contributions to research and education about America's first ladies. The award, which will be named for Dr. Gould, was announced by the First Ladies Association for Research and Education (FLARE).
"Dr. Gould's pioneering work opened the door to the development of a new discipline, the study of the first lady," said Myra Gutin, FLARE's founding president. "He encouraged and inspired a generation of scholars and others interested in the presidential spouse to research and then share what they had learned with the American public." FLARE was launched this year (FLARE | First Ladies Association of Research and Education (flare-net.org) in partnership with American University's School of Public Affairs.
"During his distinguished career as a teacher and author, Lew Gould has greatly expanded our understanding of American history, especially in the field of politics," said Don Carleton, executive director of the Briscoe Center. "His book, Progressives and Prohibitionists: Texas Democrats in the Wilson Era has become a classic. Lew has not only done extensive research in collections at the Briscoe Center, he also has played a key role in helping us expand our archival holdings, including the famed Natchez Trace Collection. We join FLARE in their recognition of Gould's academic legacy."
Gould was the first to develop a university-level course on the history of America's first ladies at the University of Texas-Austin in 1982. Two years later he was the keynote speaker at the first national first ladies conference, convened by Betty Ford. His book that analyzed Lady Bird Johnson's contribution to environmentalism was the first attempt to demonstrate a first lady's impact on the American society. In 1998, Gould became the editor for the Modern First Ladies series published by the University Press of Kansas.
Born in New York City in 1939, Lewis Ludlow Gould earned a bachelor's degree from Brown University and a masters from Yale. After receiving his Ph.D. from Yale in 1966, Gould taught history at Yale and then moved to the University of Texas at Austin in 1967. He served as chair of the UT History Department from 1980 to 1984 and retired in 1998. Gould has written and edited numerous articles and books on politics and the American presidency, including The Black Experience in America (1968) and American First Ladies (2001). Gould has recently served as a retired visiting distinguished professor of history at Monmouth College.
Gould has contributed a number of collections to the Briscoe Center, including:
The Lewis L. Gould Collection of American Political History, 1870-1920
The Lewis L. Gould Collection of Modern American Political History, 1920-1996
The Gubernatorial Spouses Collection, 1908-1992


So you don't understand the hubbub around #OscarsSoWhite?
I'm just curious as to why people freak out and scream "Racism!" just because no black films were chosen. Maybe the committee just didn't think they were good enough. Maybe I'm kinda playing devil's advocate here but I'm genuinely curious.
The festival is being thrown in partnership with the KTH Royal Institute of Technology, which awarded Robyn its Great Prize in 2013. Recipients are required to hold a seminar at the university, but Robyn is instead choosing to throw this day-long event. "I thought of KTH's motto, 'science and art', and wanted to do something to inspire girls who are curious about technology, while at the same time highlighting that too few women are applying to KTH programs," Robyn says. KTH says that only about 34 percent of its new students are women. Google, Spotify, and other tech firms are partnering for the event. It'll be held April 18th. It's not stated whether the event will recur in the future.
Tech isn't the area you'd expect to see Robyn working in, but KTH still views her as an important figure in the industry because of what it calls her use of "new technology in IT, audio, and video in innovative and exciting ways." And throwing an event like Tekla is important. An interest in these subjects too often isn't fostered in girls throughout school, and introducing it to them through a dedicated festival could help to change that — even if it starts with a small number of people.
No slight against Swift, but I fail to see how any of the above justifies her placement on a list of the world's greatest leaders.
There needs to be more "normal" and older women on the news and the radio, according to a new survey commissioned by the BBC.
The findings of the Blurred Lines: Contemporary Attitudes to Gender Portrayal in the Media revealed that viewers believe that news and radio lacked high profile names compared to other areas.
The corporation's detailed and wide-ranging study also revealed that well-known presenters like Clare Balding and Gabby Logan are improving sports coverage. Comedy, too, was getting a boost from female stars like Miranda Hart and Sarah Millican.
The survey found that people want less scantily clad women on reality television shows as well and that audiences did not think that they were good representations of real people.
Interestingly, the study also showed that audience perception of gender balance is better than the reality, with two men to every one woman.
Walk into just about any Wal-Mart and you'll find a whole section filled with MMA gear and accessories. You'll have a harder time, however, finding UFC champion Ronda Rousey's new memoir, "My Fight/Your Fight." The store confirmed to Jezebel this week that it will not display the title on its in-store shelves, but instead only offer customers the opportunity to purchase the tome online.
Why? ESPN and the New York Post both reported last week the content was considered "too violent" for the store, which displays and sells copies of "American Sniper," "Walking Dead" graphic novels and, oh yeah, shot guns. This is just the story of an Olympic athlete's life and career. What could possibly be so offensive?
Walmart spokesperson Danit Marquadt tells us that's not correct, that Walmart has been "preparing for the release" of Rousey's book since September 2014, and that they're pre-selling it online now. (That's true: it's right here.) She told TMZ virtually the same thing.
"When the book is officially released on May 12, customers interested in purchasing it can use the 'site to store' feature and pick it up at a local store, " Marquadt added.
I asked if the book's content had anything to do with Walmart's decision to sell this book in this way. Marquadt responded: "There's a variety of factors that we look at when determining what items to offer our customers. At this point we've chosen to offer this particular title to our customers online. We'll continue to watch how customers respond." She added that Walmart's website sells millions of items versus the 150,000 sold in an average Walmart Supercenter.
I asked again if the book's content was one of those deciding factors; at this point, Marquadt could presumably have said "No," or "I don't know" or "We're saving space for more in-demand titles" or something. Instead, she told me: "I've shared with you what I have to share. In terms of the factors that we look at, there are a lot of different factors that we look at when determining what items to offer our customers." This information—and not one iota more—was all repeated in an email that she sent to me after we hung up.
I wonder what those factors are and if sexism played a role in Walmart's decision.
"I think there should be more woman on a dollar/coin for the United States because if there were no woman there wouldn't be men," she wrote, adding that there are many women that deserve to be featured on U.S. currency because of the "important things" they've done.
Included on her list of suggestions were Rosa Parks, Betsy Ross, Abigail Adams and First Lady Michelle Obama.
Sofia told Time she "sort of forgot about" her letter when months passed without any response from the president. But in February, she received a letter from the White House.
"This is a belated note to thank you for writing to me with such a good idea last summer. The women you listed and drew make up an impressive group, and I must say you're pretty impressive too," the president wrote, according to a copy of the letter obtained by Time.
"I'll keep working to make sure you grow up in a country where women have the same opportunities as men, and I hope you'll stay involved in issues that matter to you," Obama wrote.
Sofia might be happy to know that the online campaign Women on 20s shares her concerns. The non-profit campaign aims to get a woman's face on the $20 bill by 2020.
Women On 20s, with your help, aims to compel historic change by convincing President Obama that NOW is the time to put a woman's face on our paper currency. With over 256,000 voters casting ballots over the last 5 weeks, Americans have chosen which of the 15 inspiring American women heroes will go on to the Final Round of voting. And now we reveal that Eleanor Roosevelt, Harriet Tubman and Rosa Parks are the people's choice and will advance to the final ballot for your consideration. In addition, Cherokee Chief Wilma Mankiller has been added to the final ballot by popular demand in order to include a choice of a Native American to replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill.
A few weeks ago, I came across a short video entitled, "Where Are the Girls on the Money?" on the website womenon20s.org. Women on 20s is an online campaign to put a woman's face on the $20 bill. I was excited to see that there was a positive mission afoot to bring attention to some of the greatest women in American history.
I liked how it was reframing the conversation about gender equality in a whole new way and decided to post a photo on social media that championed the cause and urged others to vote for one of the 15 incredible candidates on the Women on 20s website.
As Sarandon notes in her article, Turkey, Mexico, the Phillipines, and Syria are among several countries that recognize female leaders on their paper currency. Why is the "world's greatest country" lagging behind in this respect?


The heat isn't exactly great for your skin, and between the long days and humid weather, it can be easy to neglect your skin care routine during the summertime. Taking care of your skin doesn't have to be complicated. By incorporating just a few simple strategies into your daily routine, you can help your skin look and feel its best all summer long.
1. Always wear sunscreen. A lot of people only put on sunscreen when heading to the beach or the pool, but in actuality sunscreen is necessary every time you step out into the sunshine. Even on cloudy days, make a habit of putting sunscreen on to protect your skin from absorbing too many rays.
2. Skip the tanning bed. Obtaining a glowing tan within a day may be tempting, but the tanning bed is not going to help your skin be healthy. You get enough sunshine just walking across the parking lot on particularly hot summer days. Don't stress your skin out with the tanning bed.
3. Moisturize every day! You wouldn't go a whole day without drinking water during the summer, so why would you expect your skin to deal just fine without being hydrated? Moisturize every day to prevent your skin from drying out due to the heat.
The summer is supposed to be the season of fun. There are plenty of reasons to feel comfortable in your skin this summer. So, whether you are spending a day near the water in your favorite bathing suit or are ready to tackle some errands around town in your shorts and tank top, go forward feeling comfortable and confident in your skin.
Need professional advice on how to treat your skin in the summer heat? Contact Avail Dermatology today and schedule an appointment with us.

I discussed with my partner, and we didn't really come to a firm conclusion. We felt that there couldn't be a contradiction, but couldn't explain why. Is it maybe that successful meditation relies on the blessings of Buddha? Or maybe that when we find our object of meditation our mind mixes with Buddha's mind? Or are blessings the moments that our mind mixes with virtuous objects?
An awesome piece of wisdom! A wholeheartedly thank you conjoined with the awareness that I am a dependently arising being, including this article.
Right on! Perfection is us! I had a professor in college who told us on the first day of class, " today you all have 'A's' from now on it is your propensity towards ignorance and laziness that will drive you to achieve lower grades." Looking back what a Dharma teaching! Great post – enjoyed it!
Delicious mind medicine. Thank you!
Loved the article by the "guest" today, Sept. 17. Very much appreciated! Thank you.

"Community Conservatives and the Future" Now Available on All eReaders
Is it possible? Can it be that those who would identify themselves as sympathetic to the 'Occupy Wall Street' movement have something in common with those who would are sympathetic to the 'Tea Party'? What might this mean for a political environment more and more of us are becoming convinced is stacked against ordinary people?
Here is what that might look like, told from the perspective of one who, while sympathizing with the 'Tea Party' movement's concern for the fiscal future of our kids' economy, yet recognizes that the same basic dynamic that has produced debts and deficits has also produced income inequality.
A wide array of political issues are taken up here from a conservative point of view. But this is a conservatism rooted in the community, not the Wall Street board room or country club lounge. The hearts and minds of a generation which puts belonging before believing can be reached by conservative ideas - but these ideas must be articulated within a commitment to putting community first, and then interpreting our politics in that light.
"Community Conservatives and the Future" is now available from all major eBook outlets, including Apple's iBooks, Barnes & Noble's Nook, Kobo, and many others. As from the beginning, the book is also available from Amazon.com for the Kindle or Kindle Readers for your iPad, iPhone, Android tablet and Android phone.

South coast-based IFA bought for £1.6m
Harwood Wealth Management Group has bought the trade of Somerset and Dorset-based IFA Castleton Financial Planning.
The purchase price is expected to be about £1.6m with half of that paid on completion, which is expected to be in April 2019.
A further two instalments are set to be paid (£400,000 each) on the first and second anniversaries of completion, contingent upon how well the business is doing.
Peter Mann, chairman of Harwood Wealth Management Group, said: "The acquisition of Castleton is our second this financial year, and in line with our strategy has a strong cultural fit to the group.
"It is very pleasing to have started 2019 with the purchase of two quality businesses, and we continue to see a healthy pipeline of opportunities available to us."
Harwood acquired nine advice businesses in the year to October 2018 for a total of £10.7m.
The firm stated it has set aside £4.2m for more purchases in the coming year and was willing to take on debt if needed.

I was digging up my photo archives and stumbled upon pictures of some RC micro airplane models that I built long time ago as a hobby. I will start posting pictures of my micro airplanes along with details about them, maybe this will inspire you to build some models like this or at least give you an impression of what a person could build at their home these days.

I built my own transmitter according to Koichi's drawings and schematics. I used a case from electric shaver to fit my transmitter circuit board (PCB) and the glued the high-power infrared LED array on the front (of course it is connected by wires as well).
Soon I will be posting more pictures and information about the RC projects that I've done, there's lots of inspiration coming so please subscribe to this blog!


I am looking to export from my controller a scheduler that I can import on Mango and further integrate on my HTML page.
I saw some discussion in 2015 but I understand that the new BACnet module was upgraded in V3.
Do you have any example to share ?
We haven't gotten to adding full schedule support into the BACnet module yet. It's on our road map though!
Hi @phildunlap , any updates on the progress of adding full schedule support into the BACnet module?
In the email you sent to support you also asked about Calendar objects, which are in the same state. You can poll for any property of a calendar object, but you cannot set to it through data points currently.
Thank you, @phildunlap for the response. I forwarded the info to our in-house developers and we'll get back to you with more questions later.
Here's the JSON from my testing. I didn't actually set the schedule out to a weekly schedule on a BACnet device, though. Should work the same as the previous example.
The Meta point is set up to run whenever the SQL point's value changes (when there is a new default weekly schedule set for the schedule), but would also run if one pressed refresh value (which you may wish to do if the inactive or active values change).


The one issue we have with beetroot salad is how the sauce runs all over your plate and turns everything red, but a friend showed Marietjie how she serves beetroot in wee bowls that are small enough to be placed on each plate. This way, the sauce stays out of trouble.
Wash and trim the ends from the beetroot and place in a saucepan.
Cover with boiling water and boil until tender. This can take about 30 minutes, but the time depends on the size of your beetroot.
Peel the skins and cut them into slices or wedges.
Use a large stainless steel saucepan to heat the water, vinegar, sugar and spices together. Stir until the sugar is dissolved and bring to the boil.
Add the beetroot, lower the heat, put the lid on the saucepan and simmer for 20 minutes.
Spoon the hot beetroot and sauce in to sterilised jars and seal the jars.
Allow the flavour of the beetroot to develop for at least a week before opening.
Pickled beetroot will keep for 6-8 months stored in a cool, dark place. Once opened, store in the refrigerator and serve cold.
Tip: use surgical gloves when you peel the beetroot, to prevent your hands from getting beet red.

Why Conduent Inc. Stock Popped Today
Shares of Conduent Inc. (NYSE: CNDT) were up 12.9% as of 2 p.m. EST Wednesday after the IT service management specialist announced solid fourth-quarter 2017 results.
More specifically, Conduent's revenue declined slightly from last year's fourth quarter to $1.493 billion. That translated to adjusted net income of $67 million, or $0.31 per share, up from $61 million, or $0.29 per share in the same year-ago period. By comparison, consensus estimates predicted adjusted earnings of only $0.24 per share on roughly the same revenue.
The results mark a strong end to Conduent's first year of independence after spinning off from Xerox (NYSE: XRX) in early 2017. Further, Conduent says it "overachieved" relative to its 2017 strategic transformation goals, leaving it well positioned to drive further savings in 2018.
"We focused around our core business and aggressively addressed our cost structure to deliver meaningful improvements in our margins and cash flow," added Conduent CEO Ashok Vermuri. "This will enable investments to modernize technology, improve our workplace, and strengthen our positioning as a digital interactions company."
Looking forward to the full-year 2018, Conduent expects revenue to be flat to down 3% from 2017, the midpoint of which compares favorably to estimates for a 2.6% decline. Meanwhile, adjusted EBITDA this year should increase 8% to 12% from $672 million last year, and free cash flow should arrive in the range of 25% to 35% of adjusted EBITDA. Conduent notes that this outlook is essentially in line with its previously communicated long-term goals.
All told, given Conduent's surprising profitability improvements, there was little not to like about Conduent's strong end to the year. With shares down nearly 10% (as of yesterday's close) from their post-spin-off highs set last May, it's no surprise to see Conduent stock surging today in response.

Former governor of Delta State, Chief James Onanefe Ibori, on Wednesday, paid a condolence visit to the family of his long time friend and political ally, late D.S.P Alamieyeseigha in Amassoma, Bayelsa State.
Ibori said he was devastated when news of his death got to him in the United Kingdom as they both shared a common ideology and relationship which was very deep and added that Alamieyeseigha until his demise fought against oppression and evil which ultimately led to his untimely death.
While sympathising with the family of the departed Governor-General of the Ijaw Nation, the former governor urged them to take solace in the fact that he was a good man who will forever be remembered by his legacies and also the reality that what he believed in will not die.
The former Delta State Governor who equally took time to visit the grave side of the departed Alamieyeseigha assured the family that he will always remember and stand by them as their father and son would have done same for his family.
Earlier, Ibori had visited Governor Seriake Dickson at the Government House, in Yenagoa where he also expressed his sympathy to the government and people of the state over the death of their first civilian governor.
According to him the visit was to appreciate Governor Dickson for immortalizing the foremost Ijaw hero by renaming the Government House banquet hall after him and for pushing forward his noble ideas of governance and strong agitation for rights of people Ijaw and Niger Delta.
" I take solace in the fact that having met you, I am encouraged that indeed the flag only flew half mast for a couple of days and after that the flag is flying again. Thank you for playing your bit to immortalize him. He may have left us but his spirit is still with us".
In his remarks, Governor Dickson said the visit was solemn but historic and thanked Ibori for his thoughtfulness to visit the family which emphasized the brotherliness that existed between him and the late former governor.
Dickson who called on people of the Niger Delta to stop betraying their leaders noted that both Alamieyeseigha and Ibori were victims of the Niger Delta struggle which was as a result of their campaign for resource control and fiscal federalism.
He said " We have done enough when it comes to betraying, sabotaging and pulling down one another especially our leaders. Nobody in this nation will build and sustain leaders for us, we have to build our leaders, support and encourage them. So I think the time has come for us in the Niger Delta to turn a new leaf and learn from others".

In early September 2018, Belliveau's body was found in a wooded area in Largo. Two days earlier, an Amber Alert was sent out when his mother, 21-year-old Charisse Stinson, reported him missing. Prosecutors believe Stinson made up a story.


Sewing is like breathing to me. I started early (as a child) and keep going since. What's interesting is the fact that I always wanted to make not only clothes but decorative pieces for everyday life (placemats, napkins, wall hangings, bed covers). I feel satisfied making things just because of its aesthetic value. And it always has been quilting form although I didn't know it.
I'm a self taught artist. I made my degrees in economy (sic!) and theatrology but even then I knew I'm destined for sewing and art.
First time I learned about quilts from internet – and I was hooked on American quilts and their history. It opened my eyes for how much those humble pieced scraps may carry. I've never been in the US but my works were everywhere – like ambassadors of me – from small local shows to the biggest ones (like Houston or Paducah). I love traditional quilts. But it was pretty obvious that I want to develop my own, artistic patch.
I'm not an inventor. I love to combine different ideas into a new context, giving them another meaning. That's why I use mostly commercially printed cottons mixed with silks, linens or wool. I take care of their quality. It is an important factor considering washing. High quality fabrics age gracefully – I have my own placemats in use for over ten years and they are still pretty. That's why I buy American quilting cottons, Chinese or Japanese silks and European linens – I don't look for cheap materials. And all the upcycled fabrics I use come from the well known sources – I have to know the people, families who used them before. I have to be sure they carry "good vibrations". Yes, fabrics are like live beings for me – you may experience it fully only in direct contact. That's why it's always a struggle to take a good photo of a textile piece – you can't show its full value in the picture. The texture, the feeling, the touch of it are beyond the visual impression.
"Slow life" is a trendy slogan nowadays. But in fact it HAS BEEN a way of my life from quite a long time now. I live in a small apartment with my partner and our daughter. I cook every day, I shop at the farmers' market every day, I take care of our family and the quality of our life. And I create.

» Signs and symptoms of imminent dehydration
Signs and symptoms of imminent dehydration
/ Health professional corner
/ By	EHIadmin
Professor Ryszard Gellert, Professor of Medicine, Department of Nephrology at the Medical Centre for Postgraduate Medicine and the IV Clinical Ward of Internal Medicine at the Bielański Hospital in Warsaw, Poland. Member of the Science Advisory Board of the EHI.
Dehydration refers to a deficit of total body water volume, best represented by hypovolaemia (diminished blood volume) and a reduction of body weight (BW). The day-to-day variation in water content in healthy active individuals outbalances changes in solute content, is asymptomatic, and does not exceed 1% of body weight (BW)1. Dehydration may be mild (1-3% BW in adults and children >10kg, and 5% BW in children<10kg), moderate (3-10% BW), or severe (>10% BW). Each stage is represented by a set of clinical symptoms and signs, and by the extent of laboratory abnormalities.
Thirst is undoubtedly the most recognised symptom of dehydration. It appears after dehydration of 1% BW and hypovolaemia have developed, but does not increase significantly with progressing dehydration, so is a poor qualitative indicator of dehydration.
Thirst from progressive dehydration is preceded by a decreased output of dark-yellow urine, which goes initially unnoticed. Reduction in urinary and salivary flow can be noticed at dehydration <0.5% BW. The urine flow rate (30-100 ml/hour), colour, specific gravity (1.01-1.03g/l), osmolality, and conductivity, are all useful indicators of the extent of physiological dehydration2,3. However, the maximum urine concentration is reached at dehydration of about 1.0% BW, so urine characteristics cannot quantify dehydration.
Mild dehydration is felt as unpleasant condition and negatively affects mood, and cognitive and motor control functions. Unexplained tiredness, headaches and sore throat, decreased attention and reduced short-term memory, have been reported with only 1-3% body weight reduction4. Physical signs indicative of mild dehydration are slight dryness of mouth mucosa and tongue, dry skin of normal turgor (skinfold), increased pulse rate while standing as compared to supine position (increase by ≥15 bpm). No changes in blood pressure or heart rate can be noticed in supine position until dehydration reaches 4% BW5. The arteriolar refill time can be also slightly extended, but does not exceed 2s.
Increased haematocrit, and plasma albumin and blood haemoglobin concentrations are suggestive of mild dehydration. However, only the plasma osmolality (Posm) of 301 +/- 5 mmol/kg is a good static indicator of dehydration. For dynamic assessment of developing dehydration, changes of 9 mmol/kg H2O (plasma osmolality), 0.010 (urine specific gravity), and 2.5% decrease in body mass are statistically valid at the 95% probability level6.
In summary, the best indicators of normal hydration are body weight net changes <0.5%, light-yellow urine, and lack of thirst.

Dysport is a purified formulation that has been shown to deliver temporary improvements in moderate to severe frown lines, even with repeat treatments. So, the effect of repeat treatment with Dysport may be comparable to your first use.
With just one injection into each of five points between and above the eyebrows, Dysport stops the signal from the nerve to the muscles, ultimately resulting in a reduction of muscle activity and temporarily preventing contraction of the muscles that cause frown lines. The untreated facial muscles still contract normally, allowing you to freely show facial expressions, such as smiling, in untreated areas.
Though approved in the United States in April 2009, Dysport has a history of use in other countries since 1991. First approved for aesthetic use outside the U.S. in 2001, Dysport has steadily gained in popularity around the world. Today Dysport is marketed and sold for aesthetic use in 36 countries (as of October 2009). With its approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, you, too, may join others worldwide who have been treated with Dysport.


Google Analytics plugin will not update - it keeps cycling to the pop up asking me to update and loops. The other updates worked fine.
I was able to update Google Analytics through the default Plugins section, but not using WPMUDEV Dashboard.
Also, I made some test in WPMUDEV Dashboard and it's giving a "internal Server Error ". You are using a very old version of WordPress (4.5.7) and this it's the most commom reason.
There is any reason to use an outdated version of WordPress (4.5.7)? I will strongly advise to update to the last release (4.7.3), at least, because it's a security risk.

"Officers arrived to the scene and immediately noticed that one stand-alone ATM was missing," Alexus Napoles of the West Covina Police Department said. "Officers were able to follow a debris field and locate the stolen ATM and the commercial flatbed truck used."
Police were dispatched at 1:34 a.m. to the area of Azusa Avenue Rowland Avenue and eventually tracked the debris field to a local residential area, Napoles said.
"While continuing to search the area, officers located a getaway vehicle, occupied by two suspects, and attempted to stop it," she said. "However, the vehicle failed to yield and a short pursuit was initiated."
The chase ended in the area of South Duggan Avenue, in Azusa, where the vehicle crashed into a fence. The driver and passenger fled on foot, but were quickly located and taken into custody, officials said. The ATM and all currency was recovered.
San Bernardino residents Charles Fettel, 35, and Raymond Loftin, 36, were arrested on suspicion of burglary and grand theft. Fettel was being held in lieu of $75,000 bail and Loftin was being held on a no-bail warrant, police said.

My favorite holiday is just a few days away and my son is coming home. I can't wait! I've been so excited I've gotten a bit carried away buying or making his favorite things to eat. One person cannot possibly eat that much. His dad and I may need to help.
This is the first year that Craig has traveled to be with us, another milestone in his growing independence. When he was young, holiday travel was full of challenges. It got so complicated that we stopped going to visit others. It turns out airplanes fly BOTH directions and if others wanted to see us for the holidays it was easier for them to come to us than for us to go to them. They were welcome to come, but often did not. "Home for the Holidays" took on a new meaning as we madeit a tradition to stay home. Our holidays were much simpler than the ones I had when I grew up, but they were just right size and fit for Craig. In time, they became the right size and fit for me too. I used to worry he was short-changed, but in hindsight I see that the way we celebrate was less-overwhelming, less hectic, less frustrating. Smaller and simpler isn't less, smaller and simpler is a blessing.
Embrace simplicity this holiday season. Live in the moment and treasure making memories in simple pleasures. Enjoy the many blessings God has shared with you and your family.
Gracious God, thank you for how you have blessed my family. Sometimes I get so busy that I do not notice how truly blessed I am. In this season of giving thanks, let me most of all give thanks to you for all that you are all that you have done. Your love and abundance and blessing amazes me. Amen.
Our kid got home last night too. Hope you guys have a great Thanksgiving!
Yes! Let's embrace simplicity in our lives.

Ugly Betty's New Love Interest?
Ugly Betty is back with a new episode! Bow Wow guest stars this week, and Betty's humble BF Henry (with the flattest abs I've ever seen from the accounting department!) is in for more competition for her affection. Says Bow Wow, "I'm playing myself. It's Fashion Week and I get stuck in the elevator with Betty." For this Casanova, calling for help isn't exactly his first course of action. "Betty's a lady, so of course, I'm in the elevator flirting with her and different things like that," Bow Wow says with a laugh. Who needs 911 when you've got amore? And yes, Bow Wow's giving a little show, performing a single with Omarion from their new album, Face Off.
Ugly Betty airs Thursday, Jan. 10 at 8 p.m. on ABC.

Wisdom Lives Here: Too Blessed To Be Rejected!
Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water (John 4:10).
Many people suffer the pain of rejection. They allow the devil to lie to them that they were rejected because they had a problem or because their lives were being influenced negatively by demons. They believe this until it becomes their consciousness and steals their enthusiasm for success. They stop trying and resign to failure. "What's the use?" they say, "I know I'll be rejected".
This isn't the kind of life you've been called to as a child of God. Psalms 5:12 says, "For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield." You've been called to a life of abundant favour. The only reason anyone may reject you is because they don't know you. One time, Jesus was by a well in Samaria and asked a woman by the well for a drink of water (John 4:5-10). The woman responded saying, "You know you are a Jew, and I, a Samaritan; you're not supposed to be asking me for water." Jesus then said to her: "If you knew the person asking you for water, you would ask Him for water and He would have given you living water." She declined the Master simply because she didn't know who He was.
Can you see now that you're not the problem? If Jesus could be rejected, then it means it can happen to you too, but never take it personal. You're too blessed to be rejected! You're a joint-heir with Christ and you're the seed of Abraham, therefore go everywhere with boldness. When people turn you down, look at them with love and say "If only you knew me, you'd act differently!"
I'm the seed of Abraham. Not only am I blessed, I'm a blessing to my world also. Everywhere I go, I have favour because I exude the sweet-smelling savour of Christ. No devil can influence my job, family, finances or life negatively because I'm in charge.

America Must Reform Approach to Innovation Within US Defense Sector
To stay ahead, the US doesn't simply need to innovate more; it needs to innovate how it innovates.

The race to create a coronavirus vaccine was a contest for not just technological bragging rights, but geopolitical superiority. As the most recent National Defense Strategy and National Security Strategy emphasize, the United States must "out-innovate" competitors, like China, if it hopes to maintain its security and prosperity.
But America doesn't simply need to innovate more; it needs to innovate how it innovates. It must reform how it approaches the critical task of invention, including by better utilizing its intellectual capital and that of vital strategic partners.
American infrastructure for defense research and development (R&D) burgeoned during the early Cold War years and aided the country's triumph over the Soviet Union's planned economy. However, US commitment to R&D has since adopted a worrying declining trajectory.
Currently, the processes in place for facilitating innovation, particularly within the defense sector, are rife with bureaucratic roadblocks and ineffective and narrow-minded approaches.
Misaligned Incentive Structure
Firstly, the Pentagon's incentive structure for pursuing emerging technologies — and in turn, collaborative ventures with key allies — is misaligned.
Since the Pentagon appropriations ultimately come from taxpayer dollars, the department and armed services understandably are averse to tackling riskier technology projects that might result in Congressional questioning over perceived wasted resources.
However, any game-changing tech breakthroughs necessitate accepting a certain level of risk. To reflect this fact, the budgeting process might benefit from fewer punishing mechanisms from Congress — such as reduced or zeroed budget authorizations and appropriations — and greater tolerance for unsuccessful ventures if the Pentagon can demonstrate the worthiness of the initial investment.

Capitol Hill's annual budget cycle isn't wholly to blame, though. Excessive caution within the Pentagon's R&D and acquisition apparatus mitigates fears of zeroed budgets, canceled programs, and career derailment. As a result, innovation suffers.
Taking a page out of the Silicon Valley mantra, the message from the Pentagon's top leadership down to the defense program managers must be that innovative risk-taking. This is a necessary element in achieving transformational (as opposed to incremental) progress.
This has begun with the Pentagon's Defense Innovation Unit and the army's nascent Futures Command that are adapting agile commercial-sector practices to the sclerotic defense research and acquisition systems, but the process must now accelerate to make up for the lost time.
Furthermore, the bureaucratic drag impacts America's ability to collaborate with like-minded, technologically advanced allies. For instance, Washington should be capitalizing on its extensive partnership with technological giants like Israel, and it simply is not.
Israel is the quintessential "start-up" nation with one of the world's highest R&D expenditure rates, and despite its small size, it boasts the greatest number of start-ups per capita. Unsurprisingly, according to the 2019 Global Innovation Index, Israel placed first in the number of researchers per capita and research talent in business enterprises.
Israel and its adversaries make the Middle East an effective laboratory for testing innovative technologies in real-world settings, a fact that has made its security sector exceptionally adept at developing new defense capabilities relatively quickly and with limited resources.
Yet, despite the two countries being prime candidates for R&D collaboration, Washington's export controls regime restricts such efforts. While not a full impediment, Israel's lack of Tier 1 Strategic Trade Authorization (STA1) status often slows down the exchange of information and technology immeasurably.
Though STA1 typically is dependent upon a country acceding to all four multilateral export control regimes, certain exceptions have been made. This is the case with India, whose increasing role as a US defense partner and commitment to improving its export controls regime all factored into its upgraded status. It may be worth considering whether Israel is eligible for a similar exception.
Umbrella Body
There are other mechanisms Congress might consider pursuing as well, including establishing a permanent umbrella body to oversee R&D collaboration between Washington, Jerusalem, and perhaps interested Gulf States. The body could identify joint capability gaps, minimize duplication, and direct resources based on shared policy priorities.
Congress might also contemplate authorizing and funding the creation of a joint research unit that consists of engineers and officers from both the US and Israel who commit to long-term research projects exclusively in the defense space.
Any such project would require a defined budget; a concrete, measurable mission; and a reasonable timeline of five to ten years.
'Not Invented Here' Syndrome
All of these suggestions aside, any international collaborative efforts will require the US defense sector to engage in a real reckoning with its own "Not Invented Here" syndrome, an attitude premised upon rejecting innovations just because they were not developed domestically.
Even if not overt, such behaviors directly inhibit a nation's ability to adopt potentially powerful technologies that have been produced abroad.
Staving off Chinese hegemony in the technology space will require creative thinking and a willingness on the part of the United States to restructure how it innovates.
The intellectual capital is present, both here and among like-minded allies. It now is up to the United States to make the most of such resources.

The other day you were so much consumed in the thought of how to make room for your new car, that you forgot to sip the hot coffee served to you. Well it's not worth wasting your time thinking about such an insignificant issue as this, especially in this age of technical advancement. The car lifts are perfect storage solutions for bigger vehicle like car and SUVs. Most importantly you can keep your cars safe and sound on a sturdy metal platform that stands on metal legs. The units come with 2 or four storied options so that you can make room for as many cars as you want. The Car Lift is one of the most utility units today.
Car lifts allow you to store your dream car with sheer care. Car lift can either be installed at garage space or at any open space. Moreover their storing capacities depend. While some are fit for SUV storage, others can just store sedans and small cars. The units are equipped with symmetrical arms that are highly adjustable.


GoldWave is a feature-rich commercial digital audio editing software developed by GoldWave Inc. It was first released to the public in April 1993, and is similar to applications like the open source Audacity, though offering powerful features at a very reasonable cost.
A version prior to the version 5 series still exists for download at the official website. All versions up to 4.26 can run on any Windows operating machine thus requiring a moderately fast computer to handle the program at it's best. But since 2004, GoldWave has evolved into a new era, changing from version 4 to 5, updating its visual aspect and introducing much more rich editing features and special effects, with the counter-effect of leaving old Windows versions compatibility such as 95, 98, 98SE obsolete (although GoldWave will still run on Windows 98SE, albeit unsupported) and render the software unusable on those systems. Also, the system requirements have increased considerably since now a Pentium 3 of 700 MHz and DirectX 8 are part of the minimum equipment required compared to the Pentium 2 of 300 MHz and DirectX 5. In some of the old shareware versions such as 4.13 you could continue editing as long as you like. You could perform 100 actions per session. After that a notification would be displayed for every operation. Fortunately you could just save your work and restart the program and you would once again be able to perform another 100 actions. There were no limitations in repeating this.

Q: R: How to create a loop for, for a range of data in a function? I have this parameter:
L_inf <- seq(17,20,by=0.1)

and this function:
fun <- function(x){
  L_inf*(1-exp(-B*(x-0)))}

I would to apply this function for a range of value of L_inf.
I tried with loop for, like this:
A <- matrix() # maybe 10 col and 31 row or vice versa
for (i in L_inf){
A[i] <- fun(1:10)
}

Bur R respond: longer object length is not a multiple of shorter object length.
My expected output is a matrix (or data frame, or list maybe) with 10 result (fun(1:10)) for each value of the vector L_inf (lenght=31).
How can to do it?

A: You are trying to put a vector of 10 elements into one of the matrix cell. You want to assign it to the matrix row instead (you can access the ith row with A[i,]).
But using a for loop in this case is inefficient and it is quite straightforward to use one of the "apply" function. Apply functions typically return a list (which is the most versatile container since there is basically no constraint).
Here sapply is an apply function which tries to Simplify its result to a convenient data structure. In this case, since all results have the same length (10), sapply will simplify the result to a matrix.
Note that I modified your function to make it explicitly depend on L_inf. Otherwise it will not do what you think it should do (see keyword "closures" if you want more info).
L_inf_range <- seq(17,20,by=0.1)
B <- 1

fun <- function(x, L_inf) {
    L_inf*(1-exp(-B*(x-0)))
}

sapply(L_inf_range, function(L) fun(1:10, L_inf=L))

Choosing wedding vendors and wedding services for your ceremony and reception can be a daunting task. Finding the best vendors that fit into your budget takes time. Your first choices may already be booked. And you may not even be sure what the wedding of your dreams looks like yet. But every successful wedding day is the result of a team of professionals working together to take a couple's vision and turn it into reality. Don't think of researching and interviewing wedding vendors as a chore. Instead, think of it as the first step in your wedding planning journey - and one of the most important steps overall.
Even if you're still not sure what you want the look and feel of your Big Day to be, the right time to start your vendor search is now. Trustworthy and talented wedding vendors and wedding service providers can actually help you refine your wedding vision and guide you as you choose the colors, flavors, and sweet little extras that will make your wedding unique and memorable.
As you book wedding services and wedding vendors, your first choices will eventually have an impact on your future ones. For instance, if you choose to work with a wedding planner then your Big Day may end up looking quite different from what you initially envisioned (while being exactly what you never knew you wanted).
In general, you should hire your wedding planner or coordinator and book your wedding venue as early as possible - at least a year in advance. If your venue doesn't have on-site catering, this is also the time to start researching your options. Next, book your photographer, videographer, and your wedding band or DJ. After that, focus on finding the perfect stylist, florist, caterer, and baker. Transportation is usually the last wedding service couples book.
Choosing wedding vendors and services is very much about personal preference, but reputation matters and you should always trust your gut. The professionals you work with should make you feel comfortable, not stressed. Planning your wedding should be fun and exciting, and the best wedding vendors and service providers will be as enthusiastic about your Big Day as you are. Ask prospective wedding vendors plenty of questions and be confident enough to walk away if you feel overly pressured to sign a contract. Your goal should be to find wedding professionals who can guide you toward the options that make your ceremony and reception picture perfect.
You'll encounter a lot of wedding budget guides that lay out how much to spend on wedding vendors, but remember that these are just recommendations. It's your wedding, and that means you can adjust your wedding budget any way you like. If top-notch photography is super important to you but you don't drink much, why not spend more on your photographer and less on the bar? Maybe you and your spouse-to-be are total foodies. In that case, spring for an amazing once in a lifetime meal and adjust a less important area of your budget accordingly.

In April 2016, the Attitudes Related to Trauma-Informed Care (ARTIC) Scale was released. It remains one of the only psychometrically-valid measures of trauma-informed care (TIC) available. In only two years, the ARTIC has been used by over 150 entities in 10 countries, translated into 4 languages, and administered to over 20,000 professionals.
In advance of the Spring 2019 launch, this FREE webinar on March 19 & 20, 2019, will provide information for those considering whether the ARTIC Scale online may add value to their efforts to assess, implement, and research TIC in their settings.
A FREE webinar will be offered March 19, 2019 from 2:00-3:00 p.m., EST and will repeat on March 20, 2019, from 3:00-4:00 p.m., EST. Space is limited so register today.
Also, will the webinar be archived? If so, can you share the link here (and on the Becoming TI and Beyond site?
Thanks John. I copied this post into the Becoming Trauma-Informed and Beyond community where we try to capture tools, resources etc for organizations that are on the path to becoming trauma-informed.
