FARGO, N.D. (Valley News Live) -- Former North Dakota State quarterback Easton Stick impressed over 20 NFL scouts Thursday at pro day.
The final box was checked for Stick Thursday as he makes his pitch for the NFL this year.
Stick has spent the last three months preparing for the Shrine Game, then the combine and finally Thursday's pro day.
A cool customer, Stick hasn't had totally smooth sailing these last three months.
He lost his quarterback coach, Zac Robinson right before the combine when the Los Angeles Rams hired him as an assistant quarterbacks coach. Since then, Stick's been putting together his scripted session with a combination of contributors. Including his former teammates Carson Wentz and Cole Davis.
Davis was in Fargo Thursday to lead Stick through the workout. One of the many familiar comforts Fargo provided for Stick.
He also had the comfort of his former teammates catching balls throughout his workout. Darrius Shepherd, Bruce Anderson, Lance Dunn and Nate Jenson all participated.
In all just over 60 throws were used to show Stick's athleticism and versatility at quarterback and to highlight his growth since the season wrapped in Frisco.
"There were some things we needed to clean up. We're getting there," Stick said of his progress. "We're definitely not finished with it, still got a lot of things to improve on but, made some strides and still working on some things, working through some things out there but we're getting better and I'm excited about where we're going."
Stick has had a variety of opportunities to showcase his talents but he had a clear purpose in his pro day script.
"The big thing in the workout that we wanted to show was that I can move around, be athletic, and then two that I can make all the throws. There's not a throw out there that I'm not able to make and I thought we did that through some deep comebacks, some deep outs, pushed it down the field on some different things. Did a ton of different movement and footwork, so I feel good about it."

Derry & Toms was een Londens warenhuis dat in 1853 werd opgericht in Kensington High Street en beroemd was om zijn Roof Garden die in 1938 werd geopend. In 1973 werd de winkel gesloten en werd het de thuisbasis van Big Biba, die in 1975 sloot. De site werd ontwikkeld tot kleinere winkels en kantoren.

Geschiedenis
In 1853 opende Joseph Toms een kleine textielwinkel in Kensington High Street. In 1862 bundelde Joseph Toms de krachten met zijn zwager, Charles Derry, om Derry & Toms op te richten. In 1870 was het bedrijf uitgegroeid tot zeven van de omliggende winkels, waarbij een van de gebouwen werd gebruikt als rouwafdeling. Het bedrijf ging er prat op de leverancier van goederen aan de hogere klasse van Kensington te zijn.

In 1920 werd Derry & Toms gekocht door het ernaast gelegen warenhuis John Barker & Co. Dit bedrijf was al eigenaar van warenhuis Pontings, dat aan de andere kant grensde aan Derry & Toms. In 1919 maakte Derry & Toms gebruik van de diensten van affichekunstenaar F Gregory Brown om reclame te maken. Zijn advertentie The Daintiest of Legwear bij Derry & Toms werd in 2007 verkocht voor £6.240 bij veilinghuis Bonhams.

In 1930 werd begonnen met de bouw van het zeven verdiepingen tellende gebouw aan Kensington High Street. Het nieuwe warenhuis werd in 1933 geopend. Het gebouw is ontworpen door Bernard George in een destijds populaire art-decostijl, en bevatte metaalwerk van Walter Gilbert en paneelreliëfs, getiteld Labor & Technology, door Charles Henry Mabey Jr.

Het gebouw is het meest bekend om zijn daktuinen, die in 1838 openden en bestaan anno 2022 nog steeds. De tuin is ontworpen door landschapsarchitect Ralph Hancock nadat de algemeen directeur van Barkers, Trevor Bowen, het Rockefeller Center in New York bezocht. Het hoofdrestaurant, gelegen op de vijfde verdieping, heette "The Rainbow Room" en werd een locatie voor duizenden "Dinner & Dances" (banketten), zowel voor particuliere bedrijven als voor overheidsdiensten. In 1957 werd John Barker & Co gekocht door House of Fraser, waardoor Derry & Toms onder hun hoede kwamen.

De winkel werd in 1971 verkocht aan Biba. Derry & Toms bleef actief tot 1973, totdat het uiteindelijk werd gesloten. Het werd in 1974 vervangen door modewinkel Big Biba, dat zelf in 1975 sloot. Ontwikkelaar British Land ontwikkelde het gebouw tot kantoren en winkels. De locatie wordt nu gebruikt door Marks & Spencer, H&M en Gap, en als kantoren voor Sony Music UK en Warner Music Group. In 2012 opende de Amerikaanse luxe fitnessketen Equinox haar eerste vestiging in het Verenigd Koninkrijk op de vijfde verdieping. Sinds 1978 is de daktuin geklasseerd als Grade II, en sinds 1981 is het gebouw een Grade II* monumentaal pand.

De naam van een van de oprichters van de voormalige winkel is bewaard gebleven in de aangrenzende Derry Street.

Wesley House Community Services: A haven hidden in plain sight
Jessica Carney-Perks
"Wow. This is going to hurt us all. But, I thank you for the time we had," E. Colbert said.
These were the words of a grandmother that had finally found a center to support her elementary grandchildren during JCPS Non-Traditional Instruction, just for it to soon come to a close.
This center is Wesley House Community Services located on 5114 Preston Hwy, here in Louisville, Kentucky. A center that has been in operation for almost 120 years, serving English and Spanish-speaking communities in the local area.
The center currently offers a childcare service known as the WesKids Child Development, from 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. for infants and toddlers.
Before the transition of CEO's in the past year, the center had also facilitated an afterschool program for K-12.
The program, known as the Youth Brigade Academy, exposes youth to opportunities within the arts such as drama, music, and dance. In addition to these programs, the center offers workforce development and income tax assistance.
Following the surge of COVID-19, the center took several precautions to protect its participants and families.
From closing all programs in January 2020 to the installation of hand sanitizer dispensaries, logging temperatures for every person entering the building, implementing social distancing when possible and more avid cleaning regimens.
The center later reopened Aug. 22, 2020, for the launch of the Wesley House Community Services NTI Support Program.
The program included free assistance to students kindergarten through eighth grade with logging on and off of classes, completing assignments and improving their skills with platforms such as Google Classroom, Clever, Google Meets and Microsoft teams.
Students were provided breakfast, lunch, two snacks and a take-home meal every day when participating in the program.
According to Louisville Family Fun, there are only 2 other programs and camps of its kind in Louisville, Love City's NTI Bridge Program and GradePower Learning.
Other programs range in price between $75 to $700 a week per child. In addition to fewer operating hours and days, no provided meals and no assistance with assignment completion, just assisting with logging on and off of virtual sessions.
Students varied in socioeconomic status, learning ability, comprehension, age, race and personality. Some students experienced episodes and breakdowns just at the sight of the join tab of their virtual meet.
As an employee during the operation of the program, I saw the frustration that bottled within the students when the internet connection was unstable or their teacher couldn't hear them.
"Sometimes my hotspot doesn't work when I'm at home. I can't do my check-in if it doesn't work," a nine-year-old girl said.
I felt the anxiousness of trying to be on time for class but, a student can't find the link to their live reading session.
I've heard students moan and groan about when their next break is, as they fidget and spin in their rolling chairs.
Or even feel the eraser end tapping my shoulder, as a student wanted to negotiate when they could finish homework then, play a game. "Teacher, teacher! Help me get on crazy games! Say it so, I can type it," said a seven-year-old girl.
Before working with the center, I had never experienced or had to witness this quiet of a struggle. As a high school senior, I had familiarity with many of these platforms and more flexibility with this instruction.
Every assignment was a click away. I knew how to draft an email and get in contact with my teachers. I just knew. But, I couldn't expect that from children who just learned how to count to 10 back in March.
I couldn't fathom why so many students were behind in counting, reading and writing. However, blame couldn't be placed on parents because they were never prepared for a setback such as a pandemic.
Parents and guardians have had to rearrange their lives to find methods to keep their children on track academically. Without financial means and consistent parental access to technology, it is hard to expect top tier mastery across the board.
Most of the elementary students found that NTI was "the most boring and long school ever," a seven-year-old boy said. From being warped in a mask and strapped with headphones, this was not an experience of a lifetime.
Meanwhile, other middle school students loved this instruction. They would pop into class and get the work done with no questions asked. However, this didn't mean they were actually grasping content and applying the information to real-world situations but, rather just "getting it done".
As someone who was still in school, adjusting to working with children, and gathering the patience to become a sliver of a "teacher", I saw just how important educators are in any space.
Accountability is difficult to appoint in these circumstances considering that the world is at the hands of a lethal virus. Many fear there will never be a normal to return to. From send-offs on the first day of school, holiday celebrations, proms, after school events or pep rallies in addition to the stress of not being able to hug a teacher or murmur in exhaustion.
Students are relying on parents, mentors, and educators to guide them along the course of success. This narrative isn't a straight and narrow path for every student but, having programs such as Wesley House Community Services NTI Support Program are vital for youth academic growth and development.
By the conclusion of the program on October 1st, 2020, the program had serviced 15 students within the community.
The program concluded due to the lack of staff to assist with the program and the absence of Child Development teachers with experience in education or child care that could facilitate and lead the program with more attention.
Currently, the program is hoping to restart the afterschool program once school returns to in-person instruction. In the meantime, the center hopes to kick off the adult program services with G.RO.W., Getting Ready for Opportunities and Work, a program providing resources in job placement, mental, financial, and emotional wellness. As well as begin the giving away items from the "Wearhouse Thrift Store," the Wesley House Community Services second-hand store as the center will open up space for something new during their "Clothes OUT and Invest IN" event on Oct. 10th, 2020 at noon.
If you are interested in volunteering, working with Wesley House Community Services, or accessing such resources, be sure to visit their website at https://wesleyhouseky.com/ or schedule an appointment at (502) 968-8231.

HARI's purpose: Shared prosperity
in Motoring Plus
The key to a sustainable corporate social investment lies in identifying one's sense of purpose and, from there, grow one's work to benefit both business and society. This was the key message of HARI Foundation, Inc. (HFI) President Ma. Fe Perez-Agudo at the Plenary Session of the 4TH Global Social Business Summit of Gawad Kalinga (GK), held at the Hyundai Center for Green Innovation (HCGI) at the GK Enchanted Farm in Angat, Bulacan. Summit theme was "Social Market: Disruption for Shared Prosperity Now." The HFI president addressed some 700 participants from 20 countries.
Ma. Fe Perez-Agudo, HARI Foundation president
Agudo detailed how education in climate change founded on the Filipino value of Bayanihan is HFI's current thrust, and how GK had helped HFI flesh out and develop this CSR core through their close to 10 years of solid collaboration. She likewise pointed out that the Summit venue itself, HGCI, which was inaugurated in 2013, stands as a symbol of Hyundai and GK's shared vision to educate the youth and other sectors of Philippine society in environmental stewardship as a key pillar to building sustainable communities.
The Summit showcased the experiences of GK partners from the private sector in developing markets for inclusive growth that would match the government's efforts bid for sustainable peace and prosperity. The Plenary Session had noted business leaders talking not only about the progress of their respective advocacies, but also about nurturing the concept of "disruption for shared prosperity" within their families.
Presenting with Agudo was son, Don, co-founder of Taguyod Bayan Foundation, Inc. (TBFI). Inspired by his mother's advocacy, and now officially partnering with GK, Don launched TBFI in 2012 to contribute to the building of disaster-resilient communities in undermined areas that are heavily hit by natural disasters.

Q: Ayuda, Petición $http.get devuelve undefined al primer llamado? actualmente estoy trabajando en un cliente con angularjs 1.5.8, y tengo un servicio llamado AuthenticationService.
discovrApp.factory('AuthenticationService', function (
  $http,
  $rootScope,
  $localStorage,
  jwtHelper,
  apiURL){
  var service = {};

  var config = {headers:  {
      Authorization: '',
          'Content-Type': 'application/json'

  service.Profile = Profile;
  service.ChangePassword = ChangePassword;

  //service.SignUp = SignUp;

  return service;

  function Login(username,password,callback) {
    $http.post(apiURL + 'api/rest/auth/login/', { username: username,   password: password })
      .success(function(response){
        //login successful if there's a token in the respose
        if(response.token){

          console.log(userProfile);

          $localStorage.currentUser = {id: token.user_id, username: username, token: response.token };
          //config.headers.Authorization = 'JWT ' + response.token;
          //add jwt token to auth header for all requests made by the $http services
         $http.defaults.headers.common.Authorization = 'JWT ' + response.token;
          //execuete callback with true to indicate successful login
          callback(true);
        }else{
          //execute callback with false to indicate failed login
          callback(false);
        }
      });
  }

  function Logout() {
    $http.post(apiURL + 'api/rest/auth/logout/')
      .success(function(response){
        //remove user from local storage and clear http auth header

         //store username and token in local storage to keep user logged in between paga refreshes
          $localStorage.currentUser = { username: username, token: response.token };
          //add jwt token to auth header for all requests made by the $http services
          $http.defaults.headers.common.Authorization = 'JWT ' + response.token;
          //execuete callback with true to indicate successful login
          callback(true);
        }else{
          //execute callback with false to indicate failed login
          callback(false);
        }
      });
  }

  function Profile(){
    $http.get(apiURL + 'api/user/' + $localStorage.currentUser.id + '/').
      then(function successCallback(response) {
          localStorage.setItem('user', JSON.stringify(response.data));
          console.log(response.data)
      }, function errorCallback(response) {
          console.log(response);
     });
  }

  function GetProfile(id){
    $http.get(apiURL + 'api/user/' + id + '/').
    then(function successCallback(response){
      $rootScope.userProfile = response.data.Kind;
      localStorage.setItem('profile', $rootScope.userProfile);
      //console.log(($rootScope.userProfile = response.data.Kind));
    });
    return $rootScope.userProfile;
  }
});

El problema lo tengo con las funciones Profile() y GetProfile(), cuando las mando a llamar por primera vez siempre me devuelven o asignan "undefined", y si dejo un console.log en las funciones para imprimir el resultado de la api, primero devuelve undefined, ya si lo vuelvo a llamar, me devuelve o asigna el valor, el problema es la primera vez que la llamo siempre, siempre me devuelve undefined y la segunda vez ya no,me gustaría saber si alguno le ha pasado y sabe la razón y forma de solucionar esto.
**NOTAS: En el servicio que creo podrán notar varias cosas, y es que he probado diferentes formas como guardar los datos devueltos por la petición get en una variable local, y luego imprimir esta variable local, sin resultado positivo al primer intento.
Al refrescar la pagina, y volver a probar, me devuelve undefined a la primera y ya luego lo devuelve.
Gracias de antemano, Saludos.

A: Tu servicio está mal diseñado. Todas las peticiones que haces les falta return $http.... el lugar de simplemente invocar $http
Por ejemplo
function Profile(){
    return $http.get(apiURL + 'api/user/' + $localStorage.currentUser.id + '/').then(function successCallback(response) {
        localStorage.setItem('user', JSON.stringify(response.data));
        console.log(response.data)
    });
 }

 function GetProfile(id){
    return $http.get(apiURL + 'api/user/' + id + '/').then(function successCallback(response){
        $rootScope.userProfile = response.data.Kind;
        localStorage.setItem('profile', $rootScope.userProfile);
        return $rootScope.userProfile;
     });
}

Luego cuando quieres llamarlo haces esto
AuthenticationService.getProfile().then(function(profile) {
    console.log(profile);
}).catch(function(err) {
    console.log(err);
});

Básicamente devuelves una promesa para encadenar que revisas una vez que la información te ha llegado del servidor.

A: Buenas, tenes un problema de devolución, el segundo llamado en realidad te devuelve el valor del primero, que ya esta storeado.
Deberias hacer lo siguiente
function GetProfile(id){
    $http.get(apiURL + 'api/user/' + id + '/').
    then(function successCallback(response){
      $rootScope.userProfile = response.data.Kind;
      localStorage.setItem('profile', $rootScope.userProfile);
      return $rootScope.userProfile;
    });

  }

La devolución del contenido la estas haciendo por fuera del get, por lo tanto lo que hace es primer hacer el llamado (que es async) y entregar el resultado que esta storeado...
Si vos lo cambias por el código que menciono arriba, la función no va a devolver nada hasta que el get haya sido resuelto.
Saludos

By Rob Bates
With lab-grown diamond detection equipment becoming increasingly sophisticated, the Diamond Services laboratory has identified multiple single-cut, synthetic stones in a piece of mounted jewelry. According to the lab's founder and managing director, Joseph Kuzi, this is the first time a single stone has been detected mounted in jewelry. The diamonds were confirmed as synthetic at the lab's Hong Kong facility using De Beers' DiamondView and Diamond Services' Mini Raman Spectrometer.
Alrosa Has Sold $2.5 Billion in Diamonds So Far This Year
www.mining.com
By Cecilia Jamasmie
Russian state-owned miner Alrosa announced it has sold $2.5 billion worth of rough and polished diamonds so far this year. Rough sales from January-June topped $2.4 billion. According to the company, the diamond market, which has been on shaky footing for some time, is back in balance. To keep up with increased demand, the company, the world's largest producer by volume, is planning to up production by 6% this year.
Rough Diamond Too Big To Sell: Unique 1,109-Carat Gem The Size Of A Tennis Ball Could Be Cut To Find Buyers After A Failed Auction
While they say there's no such thing as too big when it comes to diamonds, Lucara Diamond Corp may have to carve up the 1,109-carat "Lesedi La Rona" a year after the tennis ball-size gem failed to sell at auction. The Vancouver-headquartered company had placed a whopping reserve of $70 million on the stone, but bidders were unwilling to go higher than $61 million for the diamond – the second-largest rough stone every recovered. While a direct sale is possible, another option could be for Lucara to partner with one or more entities to cut and sell the stone. The list of possible partnerships includes Laurence Graff, Lev Leviev, Mouawad and Cora International. Although Lucara's coffers are buoyant, its stock is down 30% over late last year. With shareholders dictating terms, the company may have no choice but to let the diamond go.
Miners Dig High to Hunt for the Most Valuable Diamonds
By Alexandra Wexler
Lesotho is renowned for its high value diamonds. As easily accessible kimberlites run down in the world's older sources, more mines in this tiny landlocked country are slated to come on line. With quality rough from Lesotho selling for as much as 20 times the global average, the path to production is not so simple. Despite efforts to turn Lesotho into a global diamond hub, the country suffers from hard-to-reach mines, limited long-term investment due to political uncertainty and a lack of skilled workers. Still, with some of the world's largest diamonds ever found coming from the country, and a lack of viable options elsewhere, Lesotho could finally be moving into the production big leagues.
How to Pick the Perfect Engagement Ring
http://www.menswearstyle.co.uk
Thanks to De Beers, most men know an engagement ring should cost twice their monthly salary. Once they've recovered from sticker shock, however, many would-be grooms are at a loss about what to buy. Menswearstyle.co.uk offers some fail-proof tips for buying an engagement ring.
Stick to the budget. Do your research and look for a stone certified by a reputable lab – GIA tops the bill. Figure out what you are looking for before stepping foot in store. Know the 4Cs, but don't be beholden to them. If size is the most important thing, be willing to compromise on clarity or color (a diamond doesn't have to be flawless to be beautiful). Alternatively, if purity is the most important criteria, look for a smaller, more perfect stone that doesn't break the bank. Finally, the diamond is just one part of the ring. Think about the ring itself. Gold is super pricy, so consider the possibility of subbing for silver; or, if you are looking for something a little different, investigate less popular and less expensive "alternative" metals such as titanium or even tungsten. No one said you have to go the traditional route when heading down the aisle.

Despite elimination, KC has 'enthusiasm' for '17
Royals aiming to finish over .500 for fourth straight season

KANSAS CITY -- The Royals truly believe they went out like champions.
The Royals, the defending World Series champions, officially were eliminated from postseason play despite Wednesday's 5-2 win over Minnesota, their fourth straight victory. Baltimore also beat Toronto, ending the Royals' dreams of going to a third straight World Series.
"The team hasn't lost the fight at all," Royals first baseman Eric Hosmer said. "It just didn't work out for us this year. A lot of ups and downs, a lot of injuries. But I do think there's a lot of positives to take from this year, guys like Whit [Merrifield] and Cheslor [Cuthbert] coming up, making a name for themselves and proving what they can do at this level.
"I really think it gives us a lot of enthusiasm moving into next year."
Alex Gordon, who signed a four-year deal in the offseason to stay with Kansas City, agreed.
"We had a lot of obstacles this year. Guys got injuries," Gordon said. "I don't like making excuses. It was definitely a good two-year run. Even though we're eliminated, we're focused on next year and getting back to where we need to be. I thought we played well this year. We had our ups and downs but we fought hard."
Right-hander Edinson Vólquez may have pitched his last game for the Royals. He is a potential free agent.
"It's going to be hard to go home," Volquez said. "These guys are great in this room."
Several players said they didn't think they'd be able to watch the postseason on television.
"It's tough and it's sad," outfielder Jarrod Dyson said. "I don't think I can."
Added Hosmer, "It's definitely going to be hard. We've been right in the thick of things the last few years, but that's just baseball. That's how it goes.
"We're still confident in the guys we have, we're still confident in our team. We can get pretty much everybody back and see if we can make another run at it."
The Royals still can finish above .500 for the fourth straight season, something the organization hasn't done since 1975-80 when it was above .500 six straight seasons.
"We're not trying to play for a .500 or winning season," Gordon said. "We're trying to make the playoffs and do what we've done the last two years. … We've got some work to do."

Purexis SA Studi Scientifici Morbo di Parkinson
Morbo di Parkinson
Effects of cannabidiol in the treatment of patients with Parkinson's disease: an exploratory double-blind trial.
Parkinson's disease (PD) has a progressive course and is characterized by the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons. Although no neuroprotective treatments for PD have been found to date, the endocannabinoid system has emerged as a promising target.
From a sample of 119 patients consecutively evaluated in a specialized movement disorders outpatient clinic, we selected 21 PD patients without dementia or comorbid psychiatric conditions. Participants were assigned to three groups of seven subjects each who were treated with placebo, cannabidiol (CBD) 75 mg/day or CBD 300 mg/day. One week before the trial and in the last week of treatment participants were assessed in respect to (i) motor and general symptoms score (UPDRS); (ii) well-being and quality of life (PDQ-39); and (iii) possible neuroprotective effects (BDNF and H(1)-MRS).
Prospects for cannabinoid therapies in basal ganglia disorders.
Cannabinoids are promising medicines to slow down disease progression in neurodegenerative disorders including Parkinson's disease (PD) and Huntington's disease (HD), two of the most important disorders affecting the basal ganglia. Two pharmacological profiles have been proposed for cannabinoids being effective in these disorders. On the one hand, cannabinoids like Δ(9) -tetrahydrocannabinol or cannabidiol protect nigral or striatal neurons in experimental models of both disorders, in which oxidative injury is a prominent cytotoxic mechanism. This effect could be exerted, at least in part, through mechanisms independent of CB(1) and CB(2) receptors and involving the control of endogenous antioxidant defences.
Evaluation of the neuroprotective effect of cannabinoids in a rat model of Parkinson's disease: importance of antioxidant and cannabinoid receptor-independent properties
We have recently demonstrated that two plant-derived cannabinoids, Delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabidiol (CBD), are neuroprotective in an animal model of Parkinson's disease (PD), presumably because of their antioxidant properties. To further explore this issue, we examined the neuroprotective effects of a series of cannabinoid-based compounds, with more selectivity for different elements of the cannabinoid signalling system, in rats with unilateral lesions of nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons caused by local application of 6-hydroxydopamine.
Cannabinoids provide neuroprotection against 6-hydroxydopamine toxicity in vivo and in vitro: relevance to Parkinson's disease.
Cannabinoids have been reported to provide neuroprotection in acute and chronic neurodegeneration. In this study, we examined whether they are also effective against the toxicity caused by 6-hydroxydopamine, both in vivo and in vitro, which may be relevant to Parkinson's disease (PD). First, we evaluated whether the administration of cannabinoids in vivo reduces the neurodegeneration produced by a unilateral injection of 6-hydroxydopamine into the medial forebrain bundle. As expected, 2 weeks after the application of this toxin, a significant depletion of dopamine contents and a reduction of tyrosine hydroxylase activity in the lesioned striatum were noted, and were accompanied by a reduction in tyrosine hydroxylase-mRNA levels in the substantia nigra.
Cannabidiol for the treatment of psychosis in Parkinson's disease.
The management of psychosis in Parkinson's disease (PD) has been considered a great challenge for clinicians and there is a need for new pharmacological intervention. Previously an antipsychotic and neuroprotective effect of Cannabidiol (CBD) has been suggested. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to directly evaluate for the first time, the efficacy, tolerability and safety of CBD on PD patients with psychotic symptoms.
Symptom-relieving and neuroprotective effects of the phytocannabinoid Δ⁹-THCV in animal models of Parkinson's disease.
Previous findings have indicated that a cannabinoid, such as Δ(9)-THCV, which has antioxidant properties and the ability to activate CB(2) receptors but to block CB(1) , might be a promising therapy for alleviating symptoms and delaying neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease (PD).
EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH:
The ability of Δ(9)-THCV to reduce motor inhibition and provide neuroprotection was investigated in rats lesioned with 6-hydroxydopamine and in mice lesioned with lipopolysaccharide (LPS).
Therapeutic potential of cannabinoids in CNS disease.
The major psychoactive constituent of Cannabis sativa, delta(9)-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta(9)-THC), and endogenous cannabinoid ligands, such as anandamide, signal through G-protein-coupled cannabinoid receptors localised to regions of the brain associated with important neurological processes. Signalling is mostly inhibitory and suggests a role for cannabinoids as therapeutic agents in CNS disease where inhibition of neurotransmitter release would be beneficial. Anecdotal evidence suggests that patients with disorders such as multiple sclerosis smoke cannabis to relieve disease-related symptoms.
Cannabidiol can improve complex sleep-related behaviours associated with rapid eye movement sleep behaviour disorder in Parkinson's disease patients: a case series.
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE:
Cannabidiol (CBD) is the main non-psychotropic component of the Cannabis sativa plant. REM sleep behaviour disorder (RBD) is a parasomnia characterized by the loss of muscle atonia during REM sleep associated with nightmares and active behaviour during dreaming. We have described the effects of CBD in RBD symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease.
CASES SUMMARY:
Four patients treated with CBD had prompt and substantial reduction in the frequency of RBD-related events without side effects.

Home / The Black Forest & Christmas Markets Of Strasbourg, Colmar & Freiburg
The Black Forest & Christmas Markets Of Strasbourg, Colmar & Freiburg
Tour Ref: D2TLEGMGF
Relish in the festive delights of France and Germany as we travel to Christmas markets of Strasbourg, Freiburg, Colmar and Metz.
Local departure by coach, then to northern France for an overnight stay.
Day 2 - Strasbourg
This morning, we leave our hotel after breakfast and commence our journey to Germany. En route we pause at the beautiful city of Strasbourg.
Strasbourg is a vibrant multicultural city and capital of the Alsace region. Strasbourg is also the official seat of the European Parliament and its historic city centre is a UNESCO World Heritage site. During the festive season, the Christkindelsmarik (market of the Child Jesus), comes alive. There are a huge number of stalls throughout the city, with the main markets taking place on Place Broglie and Cathedral Square. There will be time here for you to stroll through the Marché de Noël, absorbing the sights and smells of seasonal treats.
Later this afternoon, we continue to the Black Forest and our hotel for the next three nights.
Day 3 - Black Forest & Freiburg
The Black Forest is one of the most visited and best-known holiday regions of Germany. People are attracted by the outstanding natural beauty of its varied landscapes; from deep forests, rolling hills, lush meadows and pretty villages with decorated wooden houses. On our included excursion we have a short visit to the lakeside resort of Titisee, home to the largest natural lake in the Black Forest, stretching for over 1 mile. Its crystal clear waters attract thousands of visitors every year.
Later, we continue to the university city of Freiburg im Breisgau, one of the most attractive of South Germany and generally regarded as being the "unofficial capital" of the Black Forest. The charming old town is dominated by its Gothic Munster the towering spire of which is the landmark of the city. The town centre is noted for its pretty squares and romantic lanes and alongside some of the cobbled streets run a series of narrow streams called the Bachle.
The Freiburg Christmas Market is held in the very heart of its beautiful historical quarter. Shop for traditional arts and crafts from the Black Forest region, including straw shoes and colourful wooden toys.
Day 4 - Colmar
A day at leisure today or why not join our optional excursion to the pretty French town of Colmar, which is all the more beguiling at this time of year. Situated along the Alsatian Wine Route, the town considers itself to be the 'capital of Alsatian wine'.
Colmar town centre is essentially pedestrianised and comprises of numerous monuments, churches, museums and alleys, full of imposing buildings dating from the Middle Ages to the 19th century. At this time of year the Christmas magic takes over as the Old Town is illuminated and decorated. Explore the Christmas markets in the Old Town where a procession of decorations lead you to stalls selling a variety of festive goods.
Day 5 - Metz
We say goodbye to the Black Forest and head into France to our overnight hotel. We pause in the town of Metz where you will have time to explore the Christmas Markets.
In Metz the Christmas Market is held in the heart of the historic quarter. During December the historic city centre is transformed into a village with pine wood chalets and decorations, and the air is filled with Christmas music and the smell of Mulled Wine.
This afternoon we continue to our hotel in northern France.
Silver Service departures will stay for three nights at a 3-star standard hotel, such as the Hotel Hirsch in Bad Petersal.
Luxuria departures will stay for three nights at the 3-star Hotel Am Kurpark in Todtmoos.
Overnight stays in northern France are in city-style hotels.

University of Winnipeg ups security after campus stabbings
CBC.ca–20 hours ago
Students at the University of Winnipeg may start to notice more guards on patrol this week as administration beefs up security following two …
30% increase in guards after 3 injured nearby last week
By Bryce Hoye, CBC News Posted: Nov 13, 2017 5:28 PM CT Last Updated: Nov 13, 2017 5:28 PM CT
Students at the University of Winnipeg may start to notice more guards on patrol this week as administration beefs up security following two campus stabbings.
Effective Monday, the university is boosting the amount of security guards on campus during the day and evening by 33 per cent, said Chris Minaker.
"Staff and students will see a noticeable difference in security on campus," said Minaker, senior executive officer at the university.
Guards will now be stationed at the Lockhart Hall entrance on Ellice Avenue, he said.
Minaker refused to say how many guards the university currently employs, claiming the information is confidential.
The announcement comes days after two people were stabbed during a robbery at the Portage Avenue campus.
Police said a 28-year-old man not affiliated with the school stabbed a 19-year-old on Nov. 9 while trying to steal his laptop and cellphone in the building. A second student was then stabbed after trying to intervene outside the university.
2 stabbed at University of Winnipeg during robbery
Man charged in laptop thefts at University of Winnipeg
The Winnipeg police helicopter and canine units helped track the suspect down in a yard on Maryland Street where he was arrested.
He was charged with robbery and assault with a weapon, among other offences.
Both victims were treated and are recovering. The U of W has offered to provide counselling services to both, Minaker said.
A 16-year-old boy was also rushed to hospital in critical condition after he was stabbed a block from the university Sunday night in an unrelated incident.
'Sketchy' at night
Third-year U of W business student Jaydi Overwater said she generally feels safe on campus, but gets nervous as soon as the sun goes down.
Jaydi Overwater says she doesn't like taking night classes at the university out of concerns about safety in the area after it gets dark. (Samantha Samson/CBC)
"Definitely coming here at night it's a different vibe, and it's a little more sketchy," said Overwater.
"I feel that there should be more security around the campus around the night hours, for sure."
Minaker said student safety is a priority.
"We're really connected with our students and when they express [safety] concerns like this we have to take that seriously," he said.
'Safety for who?'
Third-year psychology major Carol-Anne Steinhoff has been studying at the U of W since last fall and says she feels safe at the university.
Unlike Overwater, Steinhoff isn't necessarily in favour of immediately adding more security staff.
Carol-Anne Steinhoff thinks more security guards or cameras could alienate the surrounding community. (Samantha Samson/CBC)
"Especially when we talk about safety, you have to wonder, 'Safety for who?'" she said.
"Because we are located in the inner city, I think as an institution the university is responsible for making ties with its community and building up the place that it's in. But I am very hesitant about increasing security, putting in more cameras, because I think that would alienate a lot of people and make them feel a lot more disconnected from their community."
Minaker said universities are public institutions that are "at their best" when they're accessible.
"I don't think it makes sense to just lock the doors and pull up the draw bridge," he said. "We want to make sure that we are doing things in a smart and intelligible way."
No notification, students say
Steinhoff and fourth-year business student Benton Kingsley both say they didn't receive any notification from the U of W about the incident.
Kingsley was in class during last week's stabbing, which he was surprised took place inside the school.
Benton Kingsley said he was on campus during the stabbings but only found out what happened through news reports the next day. (Samantha Samson/CBC)
"We have security that wanders around and they are fairly present and we have lights," he said.
"I heard about it the day after in the news. I think I would've appreciated for the school to send out something to let me know rather than hearing it from the media."
Minaker said the university typically shares information related to safety and security through its UW Safe app and sends "all-points email" messages out to all staff and students.
"We're pretty active on that but obviously I think we can do better," he said, adding the university keeps track of all crime-related incidents on school grounds.
Security audit ongoing
U of W spokesperson Diane Poulin said the university is conducting an audit of its security services that is expected to be finished in the coming weeks.
For now, Minaker said the university is looking into creating "controlled access" spaces for people on campus that would only be accessible to people with swipe cards.
"That's something we want to make sure we're getting right," Minaker said. "We want to make sure that we are working with police, working with students, staff, community, so that everybody knows what we're going to be doing. But we want to start a conversation right now."
University students and staff shouldn't try to apprehend or chase anyone suspected of committing crimes on campus, Poulin said.
Safety concerns can be reported to university security at 204-786-6666. UW Safe — an app that sends out security alerts and emergency contact information, among other services, to students — can be downloaded for free.

Earlier this month, Michelin—the company behind the chubby white tyre man we all know and love—unveiled a revolutionary new airless tyre concept. The 'Visionary Concept' tyre is 3D printed from recycled biodegradable materials and is designed to be the puncture-proof tyre of the future.
The Visionary Concept is actually a tyre and wheel combo. which mimics the structure of coral or the human lung, by being constructed from a number of smaller cells. This biomimetic structure is designed to be generative, meaning that the tyre never needs to be replaced, by enabling fresh tread to be added via 3D printing.
Since the tyre is a 'smart' tyre, it constantly sends usage information to a smartphone app which keeps the driver informed on the current tread depth and lets them know when the tread needs to be replenished.
Using the power of 3D printing, the tyre also has the ability to switch between multiple tread patterns. So if you need a winter tyre for mountain roads or an offroad tyre for muddy terrain, it'll be as simple as the push of a button. It all sounds a bit sci-fi at the moment, but when you consider the pace of 3D printing development, the concept begins to look a lot more plausible.
The bike industry has been a bit quicker to adopt the concept of airless tyres—Nexo Tires was successfully funded on Kickstarter last year—but that's because a car tyre needs to withstand higher forces than a bike tyre and so is more complex to design and develop.
While the Visionary Concept is certainly a plausible design, Michelin's Executive VP of Research and Development Terry Gettys told Digital Trends that it would be about another decade before it gets to consumers. Considering it would eliminate the need for replacing tyres and manufacturing difficult-to-recycle ones, it'll be worth the wait.
Putting some time and effort into correctly kitting-out your 4x4 is key to a safe and successful trip.
It's one of the most significant moves by a car maker to embrace electrification.
And you don't need a pilot's licence to fly it.

Q: C# double to float conversion issue Thank you for reading this.
A float in c# has a range of +- 3.4 * 10^38, a double 1.7 ^308
Consider the following program:
using System;

double nice;
float wow;
nice = 1.50* Math.Pow(10,300);
wow = (float) (nice);

Console.WriteLine(nice);
Console.WriteLine(wow);

output:
1,5E+300
8

This got me really confused, how can such a large number be converted to 8 as a float?
When we convert a double to a float,  a float has mantissa length of 23 bits, exponent 8 bits
a double 52 bits and 11.
So when I convert explicitely from double to float and the number is that big, this means that the exponent part of the float that has only 8 bits, thus an overflow. Do the other 3 bits just in case of such a large number "just get slid off" or what happens?
Also when I do the same thing for an (int) it also gives me a very weird response.
Can anyone explain me why this is the response I get and when happens when the exponent part of a double is too big to fit in the one of the float?

A: It isn't converted to 8 (eight). It's converted to infinity, whose representation (∞) looks like a sideways eight. It's possible that whatever environment you're viewing your output in displays this like an 8 due to font or culture settings.
Specifically, it's PositiveInfinity, whose docs clarify:

This constant is returned when the result of an operation is greater than MaxValue.


This page provides information about the IRS Office Salt Lake City location.
The IRS Office at Salt Lake City is located in the downtown area, in an office building called the Social Hall Plaza. It is a 7 story low rise office building that adopted the Modernism architectural style, and the construction completed in 1996.

"The Closest Thing to Crazy" is the debut single of Georgia-born singer Katie Melua. It is featured on her hugely successful album, Call Off the Search. The song was written as part of the musical Men Who March Away, and appeared first in 1995 on Mike Batt's album Arabesque.

The single was originally due out in January 2004, but was released a month early in an attempt by Terry Wogan to make it that year's Christmas number one in the United Kingdom, but it stalled at number 10 on the UK Singles Chart. However, owing to the success of the album reaching number one, the song climbed back into the top 20 during January and February and resulted in Melua's first nomination for the annual Record of the Year prize on ITV1. At the end of 2004, due to its longevity on the UK chart, the song came in at number 77 on the year-end chart, making it the lowest-charting song to finish within the top 100 for that year.

Composition and lyricsEdit
The song is played in the key of E Major at a tempo of 64bpm. The vocal range is G#3-C#5. It has an irregular meter with a mix of 4/4, 3/4 and 2/4.[1][2]
The lyrics of the song take the form of a series of rhetorical questions, describing the contradictory emotions of being in love. It appears[weasel words] that the object of the singer's love treats the singer unkindly, and may not return the emotion.

NEW YORK (AP) Luck of the Irish?
Jermall Charlo didn't need luck. He had a power punch and pinpoint accuracy.
"I just threw the shot and I made sure I threw it right on the money," Charlo said after he stopped Dennis Hogan 28 seconds in the seventh round Saturday night to retain the WBC middleweight title.
Charlo improved to 30-0. Hogan, the fifth-ranked WBC middleweight, dropped to 28-3-1.
"I wanted to keep going but the decision was fair enough by the referee," Hogan said. "I didn't see the punch coming on the second knockdown. I was trying to keep boxing him but then all of a sudden I was on the ground and the fight was over."
Charlo controlled the fight throughout, and his pressure caused Hogan to circle away and only occasionally attempting an offensive flurry. Which led to the finish early in seventh. As Hogan was backing away, Charlo landed a punch flush to the face that caused referee Charlie Fitch to end the fight.
"My power prevailed tonight," said Charlo, who landed the first and last big shots of the fight.
The first occurred in the fourth round, as he connected with an uppercut to the chin which caused the Irishman to do a backward somersault into the ropes. Following a standing eight count, Fitch let the fight continue. Having knocked down Hogan, Charlo began to go on the offensive with heavy punches which stunned the challenger and set up the finish.
"We've been working on that (the uppercut)," Charlo said. "I try to take him out with every punch and we work hard for it. He got up and he fought like a champion."
The fight headlined a 12-fight card at Barclays Center. Prior to the bout Chris Eubank Jr., a British fighter, made his U.S. debut by becoming the WBA interim middleweight champion. He stopped Matt Korobov 11 seconds into the second round.
As the round started, Kobarov (28-3-1) threw a left that may have grazed Eubank (29-3), who responded with a jab to the shoulder. The fight continued for a few moments before Kobarov asked for time as he pointed to his shoulder. Kobarov was examined by New York State Athletic Commission doctors for a few minutes and his team for a few minutes in the ring before referee Steve Willis ended the fight much to the displeasure of those in attendance, who booed.
Eubank wasn't overly enthused, either.
"I felt like I was about to get my swagger on. He just turned around and stopped I was going to go jump on him. I guess something happened with his shoulder," Eubank said. "I mean, there's nothing to take from the fight. I threw like three or four punches. I was just warming up. ...This wasn't my dream. My dream was to come here to America and make a statement."
A formal diagnosis of the injury wasn't immediately announced, but Korobov speculated it could have been a pulled muscle.
"I was trying to throw the left hand straight, and I just felt the muscle immediately, like I pulled it," Kobarov said. "It was a lot of pain right away. I couldn't fight with just one arm, especially being a southpaw."
While Eubank Jr.'s fight underwhelmed, Ryosuke Iwasa (27-3) became the IBF interim junior featherweight champion with an 11th-round technical knockout of Marlon Tapales (33-3).


From the lobby of the THC Doctor, a clinic tucked inside a three-story brownstone on South First Street in downtown San Jose, Diana Kara watches an unmarked black van pull up outside. "They're back," she mutters under her breath.
Kara summons Dr. Bennie Brown from the back office. Medical Board of California investigators Ralph Hughes and Victor Sandoval had dropped by a few hours earlier to interrogate her and the doctor who runs the place. Did she get lunch breaks? Who pays her? Who signs her checks?
"I couldn't get up even for water," says Kara, thinking back on the afternoon of July 23, 2013, which led to her arrest more than a year later.
In a separate room, investigators grilled the doctor about the clinic's business model. Brown explained that he posted a query on Craigslist looking "essentially for a job." A young man named Michael Malenkov wrote back, offering him a deal. Malenkov would manage day-to-day office operations and marketing, freeing up the doctor to issue medical marijuana recommendations. Brown, in his mid-60s and ready for a second act as a pot doc after 36 years as an obstetrician-gynecologist, took him up on the offer.
According to Hughes' investigation report, Brown's total salary: $24,000 a month.
Just after 3pm on the sweltering summer day in 2013, authorities reappear for another round of questioning. This time, they hold up a photo of their lead suspect: Mykhail Malenkov—Ukrainian national, 130 pounds, 6 feet tall, date of birth Oct. 17, 1987.
"Do you know him?" Sandoval asks.
In a separate room, according to their own report, they ask Brown the same question.
Malenkov, a 27-year-old Ukrainian immigrant with lofty ambitions and a gentle manner, faces a litany of felony charges. Santa Clara County prosecutors contend he ran a chain of medical marijuana clinics generating millions of dollars, which he then laundered and sent overseas. Hughes believes that Malenkov reports to higher-ups abroad. The investigator says the clinics with which Malenkov worked are part of an international black market enterprise.
The resulting criminal complaint levels 13 felony counts—including practicing medicine without a license, money laundering, conspiracy and aiding and abetting—against six suspects.
Most doctors refuse to prescribe medical marijuana, because it's illegal under federal law, which leaves the task to specialized clinics. As they have proliferated up and down the state, the medical board has struggled to keep up with enforcement. But medical cannabis insiders say Malenkov's case marks a notable change of course for the medical board.
Past state investigations have focused on how doctors issue cannabis recommendations, taking down "prescription mills" and clinics that fail to keep records or otherwise fall short of complying with state regulations. The Malenkov case examines the corporate structure—that is who actually owns the business. By law, only a licensed doctor can run a clinic.
In the medical board's narrative, Malenkov, the enterprise's ringleader, managed to pull in up to $4 million a year. Investigators concluded that, based on shipping receipts and packages found at Malenkov's Fairfield rental home, heaps of cash were sent back to Ukraine.
Malenkov tells quite another story.
After finishing high school a few years early in Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine's fourth-largest metropolis, Malenkov graduated from National University with a degree in physics. He was 19 and his options were limited.
While he enjoyed engineering, Malenkov felt more inclined to become an entrepreneur. He arrived in San Diego and took two jobs.
For the first few months, Malenkov slept in the basement of the South First Street office. He spent his time passing out colorful postcards to promote the new clinic, trying to rustle up a clientele.
When Malenkov walked into the holding cell of Santa Clara County's Main Jail after self-surrendering last December, he says, corrections officers and inmates were shocked by his bail amount. At $400,000, it was 50 times the typical bail for a charge of violating the California Business and Professions Code. Margolin said that's because Hughes sensationalized the narrative against Malenkov, casting him as a mobster when he was nothing more than a marketing consultant who does contract work for clients in a range of industries.
Malenkov's case, which comes up for a pretrial hearing later this month, may portend a shift in oversight. While medical marijuana advocates lobby for state legislation that would bring sensible regulations for the burgeoning multibillion-dollar industry, the medical board may start enforcing what rules are already in place. Even if that takes some creative prosecution, like accusing someone who never saw patients of practicing medicine without a license.
Don Duncan, California's director of Americans for Safe Access, says the case should serve as a wake up call for other pot doctors, and encourage them to run their business in line with longstanding regulations that apply to all medical clinics in California.
McElfresh agrees that this apparent doubling-down on enforcement could put the pressure on other clinics to come up to code.
"I would say this is a case we should all watch, if only to provide clarity in the future for physicians," she says.

Q: Serialization object to Json and convert back - Unity I have these two classes:
public class MyParent
{
    public string a;

    public MySub[] b;
}

public class MySub
{
    public int sub;
}

I initialize them like this:
myPC = new MyParent();
myPC.a = "test";
myPC.b = new MySub[2];

myPC.b[0] = new MySub();
myPC.b[1] = new MySub();

myPC.b[0].sub = 1;
myPC.b[2].sub = 2;

But when I serialize the object, The result is only {"a":"test"}
string json = JsonUtility.ToJson(myPC);
Debug.Log(json); // {"a":"test"}

How do I do that correctly and convert JSON back to an object?

A: Internally, JsonUtility uses the Unity Serializer; therefore the object you pass in must be supported by the serializer: it must be a MonoBehaviour, ScriptableObject, or plain class/struct with the Serializable attribute applied.
To ensure a custom class can be serialized, it needs the Serializable attribute
and must follow these rules:

*

*Is not abstract

*Is not static

*Is not generic, though it may inherit from a generic class

Change your custom class to this:
[System.Serializable]
public class MyParent
{
    public string a;
    public MySub[] b;
}

[System.Serializable]
public class MySub
{
    public int sub;
}

For more in-depth information on Script Serialization, check the official documentation: https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/script-Serialization.html


Why text when your phone can sing messages at your friends?
Ditty might sound like Sean Combs' latest stage name, but in fact, it's a new messaging application that takes mundane text messages and turns them into a shareable video, with onscreen lyrics. The app, made by a company called Zya, is one of the few that can be used in concert with Facebook Messenger, which just opened up to third parties. In fact, the app was unveiled today during Facebook's own F8 developer conference.
How does it work? Flip through the track offerings, type in a message up to 70 characters and within seconds, the app generates a personalized song to match your lyrics. You can then send your "ditty" through Facebook Messenger or download to use with Instagram and Vine, or whatever you'd like. The app (available for iOS and Android) comes loaded with about 10 open domain songs (including the operatic "Hallelujah") and lets you buy some more current hits (like "Feel So Close") for 99 cents each. Sadly, that John Mellencamp song -- you know, the one where "ditty" is mentioned in the opening line -- is nowhere to be found.
