This hands-on wetlab course will cover wound construction, capsulorhexis, phacoemulsification, I/A and IOL implantation.
• Topography: the course will contain a theoretical part and hands-on practice where participants will learn to do exams.
• Critical points about patient selection and decision-making concerning a photorefractive candidate, and evaluating quality of vision following refractive surgery.
•	An overview of microkeratomes will be given, along with hands-on practice where the participants can look at assembly and tips for a safe procedure.
• Postoperative complications, emergencies and re-operations will also be covered.
Please note: All those attending Part 2 must also participate in Part 1 of the course. However it is possible to attend Part 1 without attending Part 2.
The slit lamp is essentially a binocular microscope and is a way of combining magnification with illumination. A few basic rules can make the equipment easier to use. This course welcomes both beginners and those who have a greater understanding of the area, and will provide an informative demonstration of the microscopic slit lamp.
With ever-increasing patient expectations and the advent of advanced technology intraocular lenses,cataract surgery has moved into the realm of refractive surgery, demanding that we continuously evaluate the accuracy of performing preoperative measurements and IOL calculations. With the complexity of some patients such as high myopes and those that have had prior refractive surgery, this topic is more relevant than ever before. This course will review the principles of lens constant personalization, formula selection, keratometry for both monofocal and toric implants, standardization of axial length measurements with both optical and ultrasound techniques, and the most current methods for post-refractive surgery calculations.
The course will conclude with a hands-on session of both optical and immersion biometry using equipment.
Optical coherence tomography is a technique of imaging the posterior pole using interferometry, a process analogous to ultrasound. OCT allows a tomography of the retina and its different layers with an axial resolution of 10 microns. Its final image is a false colour image representing different layers, from RPE to the RNFL layer. This permits the exact localisation of the pathology and an evaluation of its volume. OCT is an advantageous method because it is not invasive and in many cases pupil dilatation is not necessary. Good results are obtained with only 3mm dilatation.
This course shows the basis of the technique, its advantages and applications, and some results in different cases of retina pathologies. Participants will have hands-on practice with the equipment.
B-scan ultrasound is an invaluable tool for the differentiation of a wide range of ocular disorders. This course will discuss the diagnostic capabilities of both posterior segment B-scan and UBM of the anterior segment when optimal examination techniques are utilized. The principles involved for thorough B-scan screening of the posterior segment will be reviewed in addition to case presentations illustrating the differentiation of pathology in the vitreous, retina, choroid, sclera and optic nerve, as well as the use of diagnostic A-scan to aid in diagnoses. UBM examination techniques will also be reviewed, followed by case presentations illustrating the differentiation of iris and ciliary body pathology in addition to techniques for sulcus-to-sulcus and angle measurements.
The course will conclude with a hands-on session of both posterior segment and UBM techniques using equipment.
The transition of healthcare delivery from hospitals to ambulatory care settings, along with ongoing outbreaks and patient notification events, have demonstrated the need for greater understanding and implementation of basic infection prevention guidance. Healthcare personnel have the potential for exposure to patients and/or to infectious materials, including body substances, contaminated medical supplies and equipment, contaminated environmental surfaces or contaminated air.
This course provides the opportunity for hands-on learning as an introduction or as an update of your existing skills. Visual fields testing provides extremely important information and is a vital skill to master.

We were happy to contribute to the merging process of the HELVETIA and Nationale Suisse. Together with Paul Krummenacher and his team of Frischer Wind AG, we developed a multi-step concept to unite these two insurances. The goal was to make the unification perceptible, to show the importance of every single employee and to create a representative artwork for the entrance hall of the headquarter.
The three values of the new HELVETIA are laser-embossed in the three legs of the triangle, which consists of three different types of wood. During a leadership conference, 180 executives of both insurances assembled the common logo out of 180 pieces. Through this almost ceremonial act, the merger of the former competitors could be playfully experienced.
In work groups the participants were confronted with the values and were able to interpret them personally. Within the following months, the participants sent their personal interpretation of the values in writing to us. These notions were laser-embossed in the cornerstones of the artwork in order to symbolize the importance of every single employee in the company.
There could have been no better atmosphere for the festive unveiling than the Rigi-Kulm. Surrounded by the majestic setting of the central-Swiss alps, the event marked the end of the merging process to the new HELVETIA.

Hagane no Renkinjutsushi – Fullmetal Alchemist Ep. 31
鋼の錬金術師 FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST Episode 31 review
Ed goes to Al and informs Al of the story Riza had told Ed. Meanwhile, Roy Mustang's team go their separate ways but Roy considers his chess set and knows he hasn't been checkmated. He sends word to General Grumman through Madam Christmas, who runs a brothel where a girl named Vanessa works. Mustang meets up with Ed and has a chat where Ed throws in with Roy. Mei Chan has left Dr. Knox's care, leaving Ed and Al to look for her via Xiao Mei. Fu waits for Ed and Al at their hotel and learns of his granddaughter Lan Fan. Ed and Al take him to her and he's upset over her loss. However, they take their leave of Dr. Knox and a change of civilian clothing.
In prison, Major Kimbley reflects on how he slew the officers tasked with getting Kimbley to return his Philosopher's Stone, thus landing Kimbley in prison. He's given his walking papers to the warden's displeasure and after playing a practical joke on the warden, Kimbley leaves the prison. Outside, a car awaits with a military person in it. The military person is Envy in disguise and Kimbley knows Envy. Envy has a job for Kimbley — find Dr. Marcoh who quite possibly escaped. The homunculi want Marcoh alive but Envy says that Kimbley can kill the Ishvalan Scar. With that, Envy gives Kimbley a second Philosopher's Stone.
Mei Chan and Xiao Mei arrive where Scar, Marcoh, and Yoki are hidden. Seeing Marcoh, she thinks they have a new friend, which Scar denies. Upon learning that Marcoh can make a Philosopher's Stone, Mei wants to know the secrets, which Scar cautions against. Scar disfigures Marcoh's face then tells Mei to heal the man. Scar's reasoning is that this will disguise Marcoh and his reason to keep the doctor alive is to figure out some things left in Scar's brother's alchemy research papers.
Well, as some of you said, Dr. Marcoh wasn't dead at all. Scar is showing more wisdom of late while still remaining true to his established character. So, if I understood this, Marcoh transmuted the chimera into a headless corpse and Scar brings him along to understand the alchemy stuff in his brother's research notes. The fact that Scar "disguises" Marcoh by jacking up his face allows Scar to also obtain some measure of vengeance against another killer of his people. That to me is what allows Scar to remain true to himself and his mission against State Alchemist (though is Dr. Marcoh a State Alchemist complete with title?) while keeping Marcoh alive.
I find it most interesting that Kimbley knew the identity of Envy. That suggests to me that Kimbley has to know that Envy is a homunculus and that he's down for their plan. Well, that would make sense seeing as how Kimbley loves killing so much. Still, the stone Kimbley uses isn't absorbed into him like Bradley or Ling. Is that because it is an "imperfect" stone? He's been given a second stone from Envy, but if he uses that, will Kimbley turn into a homunculus himself or just gain even more power?
I did chuckle at Kimbley's little joke on the warden as he left prison. I figured that Kimbley wouldn't have a real bomb on the warden despite his love of killing. Kimbley is like an insane artist who can pass himself off as fairly sane. As I mentioned before, this is what makes him a much more interesting and scary character.
As I think of Kimbley, it seems to me that Kimbley could have escaped from prison at any time. Granted, his hands were in stocks and maybe that somehow blocked his ability to use alchemy. However, Kimbley still had the Philosopher's Stone and thus added powers. If that's the case, (1) how did he get caught in the first place and (2) why'd he agree to be stuck in prison? The only thing I can think of is that it must have been after he killed the officers that the homunculi (Envy specifically) made a deal with Kimbley.
I didn't know Fu and Lan Fan were related, or at least I don't remember it as such. Still, I'm glad he's back and now disguised as civilians, can get Lan Fan an automail arm. I can't imagine they'll be gone from the story for long, especially with Ling now being Greed.
I didn't expect to get a little touching moment with Dr. Knox and his son and son's wife Knox's estranged wife (I missed seeing the adult son refer to the woman as his mother). Since I can't imaging the anime writers including that on their own, I'm going to assume that it was in the manga. It is a nice touch to add to the crusty old doctor's character. ^_^
Ed pretty much declared himself allied with Roy this episode, which is not unexpected at all. General Grumman I expect will also be an ally of Roy and so Roy's plans to overthrow Bradley are now in play. No checkmate for Colonel Mustang! ^_^ I wonder about the Madam Christmas connection though. Still, it is sad seeing his former team busted up, but as I said before, I think this will end up helping Roy in the end.
Another really good, fast paced episode. Next episode is about Bradley's adopted son. Hmmm. It still is creepy how Bradley (aka: Wrath) can seemingly have the happy home life.

Having a Philosopher's stone in the stomach doesn't make one become a homunculus. The stone needs to enter the person's blood vascular system to fuse with the body.
Kimbley doesn't absorb the stone at all, it's still a normal stone. He can somehow keep the stone… somewhere… until he needs it and regurgitates it, for lack of a better word. As far as we've ever heard he was only locked up because of those officers he killed in the flashback, but why he stayed… I don't know.
And, actually, I can't think of anything left out. High anticipation for the next episode. Don't anyone spoil it!
evgenidb says:
No, there was at least something omitted – the guard's "toy" watch going BOOM, after a while.
Well, that would certainly be in character for Kimbley.
Here is some little fun fact's Gruman is Riza's grandfather and madam chistmas really name is Chris Mustang she is Roy's Aunt and Foster Mother also evgnidb i read the Manga The warden's trick Watch did not blow up in manga too
Kimblee is way better in this verson then the old
Marcoh is called the crystel alchemist and yes he was a former state alchemist but not anymore he quit a long time ago
Kimblee is also really smart he has a photograpic memory
um that is not dr knox's son's wife that is dr Knox's wife
I totally did not get that this was the case from what I saw. It didn't look like Dr. Knox's wife in terms of how she acted.
Charry says:
since I watch Funimation's stream I will have to get back to you on the meeting about Knox's family, but that is Knox's wife. Theirs a family picture where his wife has the same haircut and in the manga she does talk to him like her husband.
Also her son refers to her as his mother.
I likely missed him referring to her as such.
to @anym,
Yeah, you're right. Apparently I mistook the sound of closing metal gates for an explosion. Sorry 'bout that.
here is a scene that was cut out when kimbley Kills the officers one of them revels that he is envy who then praise's his work that was how they met

Q: Findstr Results Manipulation & Loop Batch File I am working on a script that gathers values from a file that are in a line of txt and I find these values by using findstr with referencing a key word. The process I want to accomplish is this:

*

*Find VALUE1 in the file if the line contains the key word "word1" and display VALUE1.

*Find VALUE2 in the file if the line contains the key word "word1".

*Find VALUE3 in the file if the line contains the key word "word2" (I also know that this value is going to be on a separate line).

*Add VALUE2 and VALUE3 and display this value as TOTAL.

*Loop through file again and with steps 1-4 and display another TOTAL if there is another set of VALUE1, VALUE2, and VALUE3.

Example file (test.txt):
Hello today is 05022017 and you have 4 apples
Also it is good to know that you bought 5 peaches
Hello today is 05032017 and you have 5 apples
Also it is good to know that you bought 6 peaches

Key word: "apples", "peaches"
Desired output:
  First value is: 05022017
  Second value is: 4
  Third value is: 5
  TOTAL: 9
  First value is: 05032017
  Second value is: 5
  Third value is: 6
  TOTAL: 11

Current code:
@echo off

FOR /f "tokens=4,8" %%a in ('type test.txt ^|findstr /i "apples"') do (

   echo(First value is: %%a

   echo(Second value is: %%b

)

FOR /f "tokens=10" %%c in ('type test.txt ^|findstr /i "peaches"') do (

   echo(Value on another line is: %%c

)

echo(All done!

echo(&pause&goto:eof

Current output:
First value is: 05022017
Second value is: 4
First value is: 05032017
Second value is: 5
Value on another line is: 5
Value on another line is: 6

I understand why my code is working the way it does. I know I have two separate loops where I find the first and second values first and then I find the third values which are on separate lines. I have tried to use vectors, nested loops, and assigning values to variables but I can't seem to get what I want working.
I want to be able to run this script on a file with N possibilities which means it should work with both these file situations:
Hello today is 05022017 and you have 4 apples
Also it is good to know that you bought 5 peaches

Or
Hello today is 05022017 and you have 4 apples
Also it is good to know that you bought 5 peaches
Hello today is 05022017 and you have 4 apples
Also it is good to know that you bought 5 peaches
Hello today is 05022017 and you have 4 apples
Also it is good to know that you bought 5 peaches
Hello today is 05022017 and you have 4 apples
Also it is good to know that you bought 5 peaches
Hello today is 05022017 and you have 4 apples
Also it is good to know that you bought 5 peaches

I would greatly appreciate any help I can get or some guidance in how I can approach this differently.
Thank you!
UPDATE Working Code:
SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
SET "sourcedir=I:\Tests"
SET "filename1=%sourcedir%\test.txt"
SET "word1=apples"
SET "word2=peaches"

FOR /f "tokens=4,8,9,10,11 delims= " %%a IN ('findstr "%word1% %word2%" "%filename1%"') DO (
 IF /i "%%~c"=="%word1%" (
 REM apple line
  ECHO First value is: %%a
  ECHO Second value is: %%b
  SET /a value2=%%b
 )
 IF /i "%%~e"=="%word2%" (
 REM peaches line
  ECHO Third value is: %%d
  SET /a total=value2 + %%d
  ECHO Total: !total!
 )
)

GOTO :EOF

A: @ECHO OFF
SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
SET "sourcedir=U:\sourcedir"
SET "filename1=%sourcedir%\q44875889.txt"
SET "word1=%~1"
SET "word2=%~2"

FOR /f "tokens=4,8,9,10,11delims= " %%a IN ('findstr /Li /c:"%word1%" /c:"%word2%" "%filename1%"') DO (
 IF /i "%%~c"=="%word1%" (
 REM apple line
  ECHO First value is: %%a
  ECHO Second value is: %%b
  SET /a value2=%%b
 )
 IF /i "%%~e"=="%word2%" (
 REM peaches line
  ECHO Third value is: %%d
  SET /a total=value2 + %%d
  ECHO Total: !total!
 )
)

GOTO :EOF

You would need to change the setting of sourcedir to suit your circumstances.
I used a file named q44875889.txt containing your data for my testing.
Much better to provide us with realistic data.
The processing should be obvious - read each line of output of findstr which is looking for either of the words and selecting appropriate tokens.
If the first word appears in the required position, process it and save the required value2. Ditto second word, calculating total and using delayed expansion to show the run-time value of total
It doesn't make apparent sense to attempt to process lines that are not of the required format.

Important (but originally omitted) running instructions:
run as
thisbatchname apples peaches
The two words supplied are then substituted for word1/2 in my original posting.
(and since no parameters were being supplied, word1/2 were empty, hence the error message)

Cellphone helps Niagara police stop a sex assault
ctvtoronto.ca Published Thursday, November 4, 2010 5:29PM EDT
Niagara Regional Police said Thursday that they were able to break up a recent sexual assault in progress because the victim's cellphone was on during the course of the attack.
"She made contact (with 911) but was unable to converse on the phone," Det. Sgt. Paul Bevan told CTV Toronto. "The telephone acted as a microphone inside the room."
Because the phone was still on, the 911 operator had to listen to the attack in progress, he said.
The incident occurred in Niagara Falls during the early morning hours of Wednesday.
"As the investigation unfolded into where the open line call was originating from, the 911 operator was able to overhear the conversations within the room and provide updates to the responding members," police said in a news release.
The content of the information from the call didn't provide the woman's location. Police triangulated the cellphone's signal, Bevan said.
They determined that the incident was taking place at a Lundy's Lane motel. It took about 10 minutes from the time the call was received, he said, adding they wouldn't have been able to find the scene had the phone not been on.
Upon investigating, officers determined that the woman knew her assailant.
The victim didn't suffer any physical injuries, Bevan said.
Police have charged Scott Orlando Joyette, 38, of no fixed address with:
forcible confinement
uttering threats to cause death
He is to appear in the Ontario Court of Justice in St. Catharines for a bail hearing.

This spring was an incredibly tough season to photograph Evie & Ameer's engagement session. I think we rescheduled at least three times due to either the wind, rain or cold. That said, with just under two weeks until their wedding, we found a beautiful day in May. We started off at the couple's new Wicker Park home still under construction, which was a first for me. I enjoyed creating images in a place that, in a way, was a physical metaphor for their new life together. From there we headed north to the Chicago Botanic Gardens, which is one of my favorite locations in the Chicago area. I do not normally advise scheduling an engagement session this close to the wedding, but it was worth the wait since everything was in bloom. I'm looking forward to their wedding coming up at the Harold Washington Library!

McCarty still bitter about Lemieux 25 years after 'The Fight'
'Time heals all wounds'. For many people and situations that phrase is true, but where former Detroit Red Wings enforcer Darren McCarty is concerned? Not so much.
March 26, 2022, was the 25th anniversary of the infamous brawl between the Red Wings and Colorado Avalanche at the Joe Louis Arena.
A crowd of nearly 20,000 were on hand to witness what they thought would be just another regular season match-up between the two teams. How wrong they were.
The Red Wings had been harbouring a grudge for more than 300 days and took the opportunity to exact revenge in brutal fashion.
In Game 6 of the 1996 Western Conference Finals, Avalanche winger Claude Lemieux checked Red Wings' forward Kris Draper from behind.
Draper suffered serious injuries after Lemieux drove his face into the boards. The Avalanche went on to win the Stanley Cup that year. The Red Wings did not forget.
An incident involving Peter Forsberg triggered things off, with Red Wings' star Igor Larionov taking exception to a sneaky shot to the head by the Swede.
Mayhem ensued, with McCarty quickly realising this was his opportunity to gain retribution for Lemieux's dirty hit ten months earlier.
McCarty pummelled Lemieux into submission, while several other fights broke out across the ice including one involving two netminders.
Red Wings' goalie Mike Vernon completely destroyed Patrick Roy, leaving the Avalanche goalie needing serious medical attention after they went toe-to-toe.
In a recent interview with Betway, McCarty showed he still harbours some resentment towards the Avalanche players for their antics back then.
"Listen, I might not be the biggest Patrick Roy fan, but I respect the player," he said.
"The same way that I don't respect the player that Claude Lemieux is, but I respect the person Claude Lemieux is."
McCarty ultimately had the last laugh that evening, firing home the winning goal in overtime to secure a crucial victory for the Red Wings.
Beating the defending champions proved to be a pivotal moment, and many people believe it was the catalyst for their Stanley Cup success that season.
They beat the Avs in six games in the Western Conference Finals, securing a thoroughly deserved 4-2 series win to knock the champions off their perch.
The Red Wings then demolished the Philadelphia Flyers 4-0 to take the NHL title. McCarty scored the winning goal in Game 4 – helping the club win the Stanley Cup for the first time since 1955.
They won it again the following season, completing a clean sweep against the Washington Capitals to cement their status as one of the greatest sports teams of all time.
McCarty won a further two titles with the Red Wings in 2002 and 2008, and is now rightly revered by the fans as one of the finest enforcers of his generation.
While many tough guys rely solely on their fists to make an impact, McCarty also had a handy knack of weighing in with plenty of goals and assists.
Despite ending his career with four Stanley Cups, McCarty's ongoing bitterness towards Lemieux is still evident today, with the former Red Wings star taking great delight in a recent incident involving his old adversary's son.
Brendan Lemieux has picked up many of his father's annoying traits, and was his usual chippy self when his Los Angeles Kings team faced Edmonton Oilers last month.
Evander Kane, a man not known for his calm demeanour, got into an altercation with Lemieux towards the end of the second period.
Lemieux clearly said something to annoy Kane, and the Oilers forward responded with one of the sweetest punches you will ever see. McCarty loved what he saw.
"I don't have much respect for Evander Kane, but that cold cock, that was right down the pipe, that was a well-executed left, and those are the ones that send messages," he added.
"Those ones not only hurt, but that's a message sender. To Brendan, I mean, what do you want? He's a Lemieux, he plays like a Lemieux, you gotta treat him like a Lemieux.
"I don't know the kid off the ice, but I know that on the ice there's a bunch – there's probably about eight guys around the league that I'd have an issue with if I played.
"But I don't play anymore so I have no issue, and plus they changed the rules."

The High Court (HC) on Monday ordered a five-member committee to fix fees of medical tests in all public, private hospitals, laboratories and diagnostic centers within next two months.
A High Court division bench comprising Justice JBM Hassan and Justice Md. Khairul Alam passed the order, asking the committee formed by the health ministry to execute its order.
Earlier the committee was formed as per "The Medical Practice Private Clinics and Laboratories (Regulation) Ordinance, 1982," and joint secretary of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare was made the convener of it.
"The court has asked the committee to formulate policy as per 'The Medical Practice Private Clinics and Laboratories (Regulation) Ordinance, 1982' by next two months. The court also set January 9 to file a report on progress on executing the order," advocate Dr Bashir Ahmed, who moved a writ in this regard, told BSS.
One Md Shah Alam filed the writ for Human Rights Lawyers and Securing Environment Society of Bangladesh in last July.

WGC-HSBC Champions preview
Tom Jacobs
It is time for the final WGC event of the season as a 78-man field assemble for the WGC-HSBC Champions in China. This event has been running since 2005 but was only upgraded to its current WGC status in 2009. Despite some noticeable absences each year, this event does now tend to attract a strong field, due to the fact it is now a WGC and this week is no different.
This year's renewal is headlined by World Number 1, Dustin Johnson and World Number 4, Hideki Matsuyama both of whom are previous winners at this event since 2013. Matsuyama won this event 12 months ago and Johnson three years before him and the two will look to battle it out this week.
Henrik Stenson, Jon Rahm, Justin Rose and Marc Leishman are also all in the field this week and each sit inside the world's top-13. Leishman was on the losing-end of a play-off last week as Justin Thomas lifted the CJ Cup, but returns to a course where he has finished 11th and 9th on his last two starts.

Sheshan International Golf Club has been the host course of this event for all but one renewal since the inaugural staging in 2005. In 2012 Mission Hills played host but the event returned to its original course the following year and has remained there ever since.
Despite changes being made in both 2014 and 2015, this course still remains very easy to score on and whilst the winning score was just -11 in 2014 due to bad weather, the last two winning scores have been -20 and -23 ensuring that the winning score has been -20 or lower in five of the last six renewals.
Bombers do have a distinct advantage here, but if you can take advantage of the scoring holes you can contend or even win as a shorter hitter, as both Russell Knox and Francesco Molinari have proven in recent years.
There is no secret recipe for success here at Sheshan, but to score well enough to reach the desired target of -20, plenty of birdies are needed, so taking advantage of the Par 5's and the driveable Par-4 16th will be essential.
Other than that a good putting week will of course help put those low rounds together at a course that really is easy for this level of field.
Generally speaking, the winners list at this course come straight out the top-drawer. More than half of the winners of this event can also boast major titles on their CV and last year's winner, Matsuyama also looks destined to join that list in the near future.
Course experience isn't a necessity either. Knox, Johnson, Phil Mickelson and Sergio Garcia all won this event on their course debut, so don't let inexperience at the course put you off. If a player has played here several times and not performed that is different altogether but if you like a player this week and he is a debutant don't let that sway your decision.
Here are my selections for the 2017 WGC-HSBC Champions.
Paul Casey 20/1 (General) 1.5pts e/w:
Paul Casey, a player well criticised in recent years will look to silence said critics in China this week and get back to winning ways, for the first time in three years.
It is easy to see why Casey, a once prolific European Tour winner is berated for his apparent inability to perform when it matters. Since getting wins on the European Tour in both 2013 and 2014, following a two-year absence from the winners' circle, it has been far from plain sailing for the Englishman.
Much to the bemusement of European Tour and Team Europe fans, Casey decided to count himself out of the running for Team Europe at both the 2014 and 2016 Ryder Cup's. Casey did not agree with the qualifying criteria and would not commit to the required number of European Tour events to make the team. This caused quite a stir amongst the golfing community, as a player of his talent could really help Europe's cause against the Americans.
Moving on from the fiasco that is his Ryder Cup views, since Casey's win at the KLM Open in 2014, Casey has four runner-up finishes (two play-off losses), three 3rd place finishes and a staggering twenty top-10's in that time, without a win.
Whilst this run of form has been good for his wallet, it must surely get on top of a man who has 17 professional wins to his name, and he needs to get another win sooner rather than later.
Luckily for Casey, Sheshan International may just be the place he returns to winning ways. In ten starts at this course, Casey has never finished worse than 23rd (2015) and he has posted eight top-10 finishes in that span, including a 4th in 2011.
You have to go back to the Sony Open in January for Casey's last missed cut and he has finished in the top-5 on five separate occasions since. Three of those five top-5's came during the FedEx Cup play-offs with a T33 finish at the BMW Championship the only result dampening such an excellent run of form.
Given how well he performs in fields absolutely littered with world-class talent, he may well take advantage of the fact that some star names are missing this week. With the likes of Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas and Rickie Fowler all absent this week, this may well be Casey's best chance of his 18th professional title for the foreseeable future, should he continue his stand-off with the European Tour.
The number of European Tour starts Casey needs to make has been in order to be eligible for the 2018 Ryder Cup has been reduced to four, and he is pleased with that decision. In an interview with Yahoo Casey said "Pelley (European Tour CEO Keith Pelley) is changing it down to four next year and that's a decent change". He also spoke of his relationship with captain, Thomas Bjorn "You know Thomas has been working me very hard. He's a hard man to say no to. He's very big" before going onto to say "Seriously, I've got a good relationship with Thomas and I've got a good relationship with Pelley as well".
In his two starts since the FedEx Cup play-offs, Casey has finished 7th at the CIMB Classic and 19th at the CJ Cup and he will be looking to build on that form this week, in order to get that elusive 18th victory.
Casey is only 20/1 this week, but this is a reduced field and he clearly has an affinity with the course, so all in all the price doesn't look as quite as bad as it may first appear.
Justin Rose 20/1 (General) 1.5pts e/w:
Rose has not played since the FedEx Cup play-offs so comes into this week fresh from a run of form that saw him finish inside the top-10 in each of the four FedEx Cup play-off events with a 2nd and three 10th place finishes.
There is an argument to be made that a four-week break will lead to some rust in his first event back, but I suspect Rose will fare well around a course he likes despite the time off.
Surprisingly, Rose has only played here three times in his career but those three appearances have yielded two top-7 finishes and he looks in good enough to form to build on that success this week.
Rose was favourite for this event in 2014, following his 5th and 7th place finishes in his first two trips to Sheshan International, as well as his three 4th place finishes in his last six starts leading into the event. It wasn't to be for Rose that week though as he limped to a disappointing 48th place finish, much below his usual high standards.
It has been a strange season for Rose, with injury problems playing their part. After finishing a close 2nd behind Sergio Garcia at the Masters in April, Rose struggled for form in the bigger events, missing the cut at both the U.S. Open and PGA Championship as well as finishing just T54 at the Open Championship and T63 at the WGC Bridgestone Invitational.
A T4 finish at the Irish Open and T12 at Wentworth in that same span gave reason optimism though and once he got himself fully fit and in the right frame of mind, he managed to put together that great run during the FedEx play-offs.
Confidence back intact and part of a field which is missing some of the world's best players, there is every chance Rose gets his hands on his second WGC title.
Rose is the definition of a globetrotter, winning in six different continents during his career, including twice in Asia, which gives further hope this week.
Whilst he is only 20/1, the positives outweigh the negatives here and he looks in good shape to contend for his first win of the season.
Thorbjorn Olesen 100/1 (General) 1pt e/w:
Thobjorn Olesen is a fantastic player, who despite winning four times already sometimes gets looked at as an underachiever. One thing for sure is that Olesen will be desperate to make the European Ryder Cup team, as his compatriot Bjorn is the captain this time around.
Given the strength in depth for Team Europe, Olesen would have to do something dramatic to make the team, without being accused of getting preferential treatment from his fellow Dane. A win at this event would be a springboard in the right direction and will certainly peak Bjorn's interest.
Not only does Olesen have a decent record in this event, finishing T6 and T19 on his two starts here, he has also performed well in other events in China.
Earlier this year, Olesen finished T8 at the Shenzhen International for the second year in a row, making it three top-10's in this part of the world.
Olesen is also not daunted by the big stage. Wins at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship and the Turkish Airlines Open prove he is capable of winning at the top level of the European Tour whilst top-10's in two separate majors (2012 Open Championship and 2013 Masters) and two WGC'S (2014 HSBC Champions and 2017 Bridgestone Invitational) prove he can perform at an elite level when in form.
One thing Olesen has always struggled with is consistency, but this year that seems to have crept into his game as well. He has missed just four cuts in 2017, two of which came on the PGA Tour and between the BMW PGA Championship and Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, he made ten straight cuts.
That missed cut at the Dunhill will be disappointing given he won the event and finished 2nd there, but he bounced back on his next start, making the cut and finishing T32 at the Italian Open.
He has five finishes inside the top-14 this season, including 3rd and 4th place finishes at the Open de France and Nordea Masters respectively and can perform well this week, on a course and in an area of the world that he has enjoyed in the past. Three-figure odds about a player with two top-20's in his two starts in this event seem generous, especially given his talent level.
Total points staked this week: 8
Profit/Loss for 2017: – 41

é uma série de mangá shōnen escrita e ilustrada por Naoshi Komi. Nisekoi foi publicado pela primeira vez como um mangá one-shot na revista sazonal Jump NEXT! da Shueisha antes de ser serializado na semanal Weekly Shōnen Jump. A partir de 26 de novembro de 2012, o mangá é publicado em Inglês na revista digital da Viz Media, Weekly Shonen Jump. Desde janeiro de 2016, a série foi compilada em 21 volumes tankōbon no Japão e também está sendo lançado em Inglês, em volumes digitais e impressos pela Viz Media. Posteriormente, o mangá inspirou uma nova série, intitulada Nisekoi: Urabana, escrita por Hajime Tanaka e publicado pela Shueisha. Dois volumes publicados, em 4 de junho e 28 de dezembro de 2013.

Em maio de 2013, foi anunciada uma adaptação em anime. Dirigida por Akiyuki Shinbo da Shaft, começou a ser exibida a partir de 11 janeiro de 2014. A Aniplex USA licenciou a série para a América do Norte. Daisuki, Crunchyroll, e Hulu transmitiram os episódios com legendas em inglês para o público dos Estados Unidos, Canadá, América do Sul e África do Sul. A segunda temporada intitulada Nisekoi: começou a ser transmitida em abril de 2015.

Enredo
Nisekoi conta a história do estudante do ensino médio, Raku Ichijou, filho de um líder da facção yakuza Shuei-Gumi, e Chitoge Kirisaki, a filha de um chefe de uma gangue rival conhecida como Colmeia. Eles inesperadamente se encontram quando Chitoge pula de um muro e dá uma joelhada no rosto de Raku. Depois que ela foge, Raku percebe que perdeu o pingente que foi dado a ele por seu amor de infância, com quem fez uma promessa secreta. Depois de descobrir que Chitoge é uma aluna nova que foi transferida para sua classe, ele a obriga ajudá-lo a procurar pelo pingente. Durante a busca, eles começam a não gostar um do outro.

Ao voltar para casa, Raku descobre que as gangues Shuei-gumi e Colmeia concordaram em resolver a sua disputa juntando os filhos de seus líderes. Raku descobre que sua namorada vem a ser não outra senão Chitoge. Para os próximos três anos, eles devem fingir estar em um relacionamento para manter a paz entre as gangues. Esta acaba por ser uma tarefa bastante difícil, não só por causa do ódio de um pelo outro, mas também porque Raku tem uma queda por uma outra colega de escola, Kosaki Onodera, quem ele secretamente deseja ser a garota a qual tem a chave para o seu pingente. Vários acontecimentos complicam a situação, incluindo o guarda-costas super-protetor de Chitoge, uma assassina, uma menina que diz ser noiva de Raku e a existência de várias chaves.

Esta obtinha uma das chaves, mas quebra ao abrir o cadeado. Ela lembrava que um dos meninos tinha uma cicatriz na cabeça, aparentemente o Raku.

Como Raku dizia que gostava de garotas femininas e com cabelos longos, ela deixou seu cabelo crescer e tentou aprender a falar de maneira educada e feminina, embora volte ao seu verdadeiro sotaque quando perturbada.Mas, o amor que antes tinha, não era mútuo, que ela possuía.

Ela se recusa a devolver o medalhão até que Raku a convence que é um ajudante do príncipe que a salvou. Diferente da sua irmã, é uma boa cozinheira. Mais tarde, Haru se apaixona por Raku, mas não quer ficar no caminho de sua irmã e decide apoiá-la.

A £1m investment will see an historic landmark brought back to its former glory.
Bosses at Great Ryburgh-based Crisp Malting have revealed that they plan to bring Dereham Maltings on Norwich Road back to life to produce malt for craft beer.
The grade II-listed building, formerly known as F&G Smith Maltings, closed in 2000 and has since been left disused.
There had been talk that the building, which dates back to the 1800s, would be converted for residential use but Crisp Malting group managing director Euan Macpherson, pictured, said the increased demand for malt for craft beer has led them to the decision to restore the maltings for its original purpose. Under the plans, some of the buildings will also be converted into housing.
Mr Macpherson said: "It's very early stages but it's a big site there and we could offset some of the costs we need to spend on bringing the maltings back into life by developing some housing there.
It is not yet known when the maltings would reopen and how many jobs it would create but Mr Macpherson said it would take at least £1m of investment to bring the building back into use.
As reported, Crisp Malting has become a big player in the global malt export market. The firm, based near Fakenham, supplies 70pc of the Japanese small brewery market, while exports to America, Italy and Spain have also strengthened.
In 2013, about 14pc of its national malt production was exported overseas – the equivalent of 130,000 tonnes – with the majority of its barley going to the distilling industry.
News that the firm plans to restore Dereham Maltings has been welcomed.
Town mayor Tim Birt said: "It's tremendous news. The maltings has been a little bit of a blot on the centre of our town for some time. It's an iconic building and a core part of Dereham, and hopefully now it's going to be brought back to life.
The red brick building, which features cast-iron columns made in Dereham, is considered to be one of the finest examples of a surviving maltings in the country and is on English Heritage's "at risk" register.
Sue Walker White, chairman of Dereham Antiquarian Society, said: "The building was slowly decaying so to bring it back to its original use has got to be good thing for it, Dereham's heritage and the town all round.

Looking for Bottled Water Delivery in Montgomery Village, MD?
Whether you're looking for the best bottled water or purified water delivery, information about water coolers, distilled water, or spring water, you've come to the right place! DrinkMore Water is the largest locally owned bottled water company serving Montgomery Village, Maryland (MD). DrinkMore Water has been providing Montgomery Village residents with the purest water on the market for over 25 years!
If you live in Montgomery Village, Maryland (MD) and you're looking for the best bottled water delivery service, you've come to the right place. First of all, we're local – not a big multi-national corporation that doesn't care about customer service. When it comes to bottled water delivery, that makes a huge difference. We've been delivering water to homes and offices in Montgomery Village for over 25 years. Our water is bottled in a number of different sizes – from easy-to-carry 12oz bottles to 16.9oz bottles and sporty 24oz bottles. We also carry BPA free 3 and 5 Gallon bottles and our bottles have built-in handles so you'll never spill a drop of water. Stop lugging all those cases and bottles home from the grocery store!!
When it comes to water, purity should be the most important consideration. Pure water tastes better and it's better for you! DrinkMore Water's 10-stage purification system removes 99.5% of all impurities making DrinkMore Water one of the purest waters on the planet. Almost every day you can read something about the harmful effects of chemical contaminants, pesticides and herbicides found in the tapwater. The thoroughness of our purification system puts your mind at ease! It's no wonder we've become the number one locally owned bottled water company serving the Montgomery Village Montgomery Village area. Never had our water? Sign up today and we'll offer you your first four 5 gallon bottles at no charge.
Customers often seek distilled water for various types of equipment – like autoclaves found at a dentist's office. Distillation is one of the oldest forms of water purification. This is why many instruction manuals for equipment requiring low or no mineral water suggest that you need to use distilled water in their equipment. DrinkMore Water is actually perfect for use in such equipment and many of the Montgomery Village area's leading dentists use DrinkMore Water for exactly this reason (as well as to keep themselves and their patients well-hydrated!). All of the metals and heavy minerals that can foul sensitive equipment (like autoclaves and your body!!) are exactly what our purification process removes.
It used to be that you could only get a water cooler through your local bottled water delivery company. These days, however, you can get one almost anywhere – from any one of literally dozens of stores within a few miles from Montgomery Village, Maryland (MD). But buyer beware! Most of the coolers you'll find at your local retail store in Montgomery Village, Maryland are inexpensive units made in China. The good news is they are cheap! The bad news is that they are CHEAP!! They often use cheap plastic parts made from very low grades of plastic. What does this mean to you? It means you'll have a cooler where parts like spigots frequently snap and then cannot be replaced. Or worse, you'll get your brand new cooler, get your first delivery of water, take a big sip and get the unpleasant surprise taste of plastic. That taste isn't from your water or from the bottles, but from your new water cooler's soft plastic reservoir that holds the water until it is ready to be dispensed.
At DrinkMore Water, we don't even bother carrying these low-end cheap water coolers. It's not worth it. Our coolers are picked specifically for their reliability and durability. We offer rental coolers, office water coolers and water cooler dispensers for rent or purchase. Every water cooler dispenser has a built-in spill proof system to prevent injury and spilled water. Montgomery Village, Maryland is home to some pretty high-end floors! Don't ruin yours with spilled water from a lousy cooler purchased from the local retail store. All of our purchased water coolers come with a 1-year warranty and we handle any performance issue on rental units as they remain ours for the duration of the rental.
Another adjective which frequently pops up in spring water advertising is "natural". While this term may conjure up images of a pristine wilderness setting, the fact is that "natural" can mean just about anything. Great Falls, just down the road from Montgomery Village, Maryland (MD) is a very "natural" setting. But what exactly is the term "natural" referring to? This vague term could actually apply to Montgomery Village resident's tap water since the Potomac River is most certainly a "natural" source. It may be natural, but I don't know many people who would go down to the river and scoop themselves a refreshing glass of "pure and natural" river water!
"Protected source" is yet another spring water sales claim that can be misinterpreted. When most people hear this term, they think about a remote mountain spring, far away from the pollution of civilization. The reality is more often a well-head surrounded by chain link fence. Hence, the "protected" source! One of the most popular spring waters consumed by many Montgomery Village, Maryland (MD) residents actually comes from a collection of springs in Southern PA. Have you ever driven down the PA Turnpike? While some parts are pretty, we're pretty sure they aren't remote enough to be pristine.

GATHERED TOGETHER FOR THE IVI!
Inauguration of a new centre of innovation for intelligent and non-polluting vehicles
View entire album
The National Advanced Transportation Center (CNTA) and the Québec Advanced Transportation Institute (ITAQ) held an official inauguration ceremony for their new headquarters to celebrate their new alliance. Now known as the Innovative Vehicle Institute (IVI), this advanced transport research center gathered together over 150 important actors of the political, scientific and industrial fields in its headquarters, in Saint-Jérôme.
"The merger between the CNTA and the ITAQ facilitated the creation of a very powerful organization. With its 20 specialists in charge of electrification, energy management and automated driving projects, this Institute, the only one of its kind in Canada, is the place where companies can now turn to for applied research, development, assessment and implementation of innovative technologies for the vehicular world", explained the IVI's General Director, François Adam.
With its extended network of partners, highly equipped laboratories and increased know-how, the next few years are expected to bring about numerous technological breakthroughs. Tens of projects are already underway and others will begin this fall. « We want to accelerate innovation and contribute to the competitiveness of companies opting for the creation of both intelligent and non-polluting products. We are, in essence, aiming for social and environmental progress," added the IVI's Chairman of the board, Renaud Cloutier.
Strong foundations for this new industry pillar
Based on the wonders created by CNTA and ITAQ over the past 20 years, the new chapter, which IVI is beginning, promises to be unforgettable. Over the past two decades, these two entities both participated in major projects in Québec aiming to reduce the ecological footprint for means of transportation, and their involvement has time and again proven to be a mark of success. To that effect, the Director General of Lion buses, Marc Bédard, offered a testimony to the fruitful collaboration he's created with these resources in advanced transportation: « Every time we gave a mandate to either of these technical and scientific teams, convincing results ensued. To now be able to turn towards a unique portal which regroups the improved expertise of all of these professionals is very encouraging for the evolution of future projects!" If there already existed a strong bond and vote of confidence between these two industry partners, there is no doubt that the consolidation of their teams will now result in an increased synergy.
It's with this same optimism towards the future that Alexandre Taillefer, main associate at XPND Capital, spoke on the matter: "The electrification of means of transportation is one of the most important economic opportunities that Québec has seen and the IVI is assuredly an important asset to do so. Together, we can create a new forward-thinking industry, which will bring about wealth for future generations. We have the capacity to develop an unequaled expertise which will make us shine on an international level."
A well-established center for innovation
The progress made by the IVI will continue to hail from Saint-Jérôme, which is resolutely focused on sustainable mobility. "The electrification of our means of transportation is our top priority; this project and line of development is fundamental for Québec society. We have all the tools and resources required to become a world leader in the field of electrical transport. I am proud that the headquarters for the Innovative Vehicle Institute are in Saint-Jérôme. The Institute represents an essential first step to decreasing the carbon footprint of our travels. I want to congratulate all actors and wish them continued success!", declared Pierre Karl Péladeau, MNA for Saint-Jérôme.
The IVI established its offices at the heart of a city which was designated as a laboratory for the trial of electrical vehicles, an exceptional by-law accorded by the Transportation Ministry in Québec, and which paves the way to tests which will be conducted by the research center. "Saint-Jérôme is proud to pursue its partnership in the advanced transport industry. Improving energy efficiency is a stake shared by all actors of the transport field, as well as by the population, but also by cities and governments, especially concerning service vehicles and mass transportation », noted the city's Mayor, Stéphane Maher.
It is with this same pride that Francine Paquette, General Director for the Cégep de Saint-Jérôme, added: "Since the IVI also functions as an affiliated member of the Collegial Center of Technological Transfer (CCTT), our partnership places us among the most prolific Cégeps in terms of innovation. Last year, the Cégep was ranked 21st out of 50 Canadian collegiate establishments that conduct research activities. With the newfound energy created by this merger, we now aim to be top of the group!"
Frederick Prigge, the IVI's Research and Development Director, then invited the guests to tour the exhibition of the numerous electrical vehicles designed and created in collaboration with the team members.

Schools Offering More Service Opportunities, Study Finds
By Michelle Galley — October 06, 1999 3 min read
Nearly two-thirds of the nation's public schools are coordinating community-service activities for their students, and one-third are providing service-learning programs, according to a federal report released last week.
"Service-Learning and Community Service in K-12 Public Schools" is available online at nces.ed.gov/pubsearch/pubsinfo.asp?pu bid=1999043.
The 18-page report, "Service-Learning and Community Service in K-12 Public Schools," includes results from what is described as the most comprehensive national survey of public elementary, middle, and high school officials on those programs.
Two previous studies of service-learning and community service were not as complete, according to Chris Chapman, a statistician for the U.S. Department of Education's National Center for Education Statistics, which published the report.
But by comparing the current findings with those in the previous studies, done in 1984 and 1996, the report suggests that more schools are implementing service activities.
"There is tentative evidence suggesting that there has been an increase," said Mr. Chapman, who wrote the most recent report with Rebecca Skinner of Westat, an independent research firm in Rockville, Md.
The authors surveyed a national sample of 2,000 public school principals last spring; 1,832 principals responded. According to the report, 64 percent of all U.S. public schools arrange community-service opportunities, defined as non-curriculum-based activities that can be mandatory or voluntary, and do not necessarily include learning objectives. Cleaning up a local park, for example, falls under the report's definition of community service.
The study also concluded that 32 percent of all public schools, and half the public high schools, include service-learning in their curricula. The report defines service-learning as "curriculum-based community service," such as when students learn about the environment by keeping the area around a local lake clean, then studying the area's soil and water composition in the classroom.
'Lab for Citizenship'
The top two reasons respondents listed for implementing service-learning activities were to help students become more active members of the community and to increase student knowledge and understanding of the community.
Some school officials also cited the importance of teaching critical-thinking and problem-solving skills.
"Part of the purpose of service-learning is also to act as a teaching tool, and to that end, apart from these better-citizen issues, schools are also using it for academic reasons," Mr. Chapman said.
In Maryland, which in 1993 became the first state to make community service a graduation requirement, creating responsible citizens is the top priority.
"In a way, this is a lab for citizenship, for students to better understand their role in the community," said Ronald A. Peiffer, the assistant state superintendent for the division of school and community outreach.
According to Mr. Peiffer, the graduation requirement was originally proposed as 70 hours of service time, but some local districts have modified it to include service-learning.
"Schools have been trying to do a variety of things," he said. "Some activities are keyed into the curriculum and done during school hours." Others, he said, are "fairly front- line community service, where there are some very serious needs, like nursing homes and soup kitchens."
But regardless of how the requirement is met, Mr. Peiffer said it is imperative that students participate in effective programs. "The key piece," he said, "is to ensure that the students have good-quality experiences."
