Patience and understanding are key when you and your husband have differing views on adoption.
I hear that phrase quite a bit from my friends, and I hear the longing in their voices. I heard a statistic recently that around 40% of practicing Christians had seriously considered adoption, but only around 5% had actually adopted. I wonder if part of the discrepancy is due to one spouse being on board with adoption while the other is happy to clap from the sidelines.
From my unscientific observations of those around me, it seems to be mostly the wife who wants to adopt and the husband who doesn't. With that in mind, I'm talking to the women here.
I know it's painful when you feel strongly about something and your spouse doesn't. I know you are tempted to forward him pictures of waiting children, statistics, Bible verses about orphans, and sermons on adoption.
You won't win him over through guilt. Even if you could wear him down, would you want to enter into such a huge, painful, uncertain, faith-stretching process without your husband on the same page? Trust me, you don't want that. You need to be united, or you won't succeed. Not only will the adoption suffer, but your marriage might be ruined, as well.
My husband and I have adopted three children, but at times, he was hesitant to move forward. Each time, there was a real possibility that we were done growing our family–even if I didn't feel done.
I'm a huge proponent of adoption, but adoption does not trump your marriage.
1. God designed marriage first and parenthood second. If you don't have a strong marriage you aren't going to be an effective parent, so while you are waiting for clear direction, take the time to work on your marriage. Get closer to your husband and look for ways to bless him.
2. I truly believe that God will not call one spouse to something this life-changing without also calling the other spouse. If you feel called to adoption, you have to wait until your husband feels called, too.
3. You aren't your husband's Holy Spirit. It's not your job to change his heart. God cares more about hurting children than you do, so if He wants you to adopt, He can put that desire in your husband's heart. He doesn't need your help.
So what should you do when you find yourself in this situation?
Your responsibility is to pray. Hard. Pray every time you get that urge for a child.
Father, you know the desire of my heart. I want to adopt, but my husband isn't ready. I want to honor my husband and honor You, Father. If you want us to adopt, please change my husband's heart. Place the desire in him so that he knows beyond a shadow of a doubt that this is the direction we should go. Help him listen to your prompting and not be afraid to go into the unknown.
But Father, if this is not your plan for us, change my heart. Help me to be content in our current situation instead of constantly longing for a child. Take that desire from me, and show me other ways I can fulfill your purpose in my life.
Either way, Father, help me to crave you as much as I crave a child. Help me to turn my thoughts to you whenever that familiar longing arises. Help me remember that you are the only one who can fill my heart. Help me draw close to you in these hard moments.
Friend, I know how miserable you might feel right now. Just because your husband says no to adoption now doesn't mean he won't want to adopt in the future. You have to wait for God to lay it on your husband's heart as strongly as He has on yours. If that doesn't happen, you must honor his decision.
Either way, God has amazing things planned for your life, and He will honor your obedience.

Boyfriend upset about crying child
By Stuart HirschThe Herald Bulletin
ANDERSON, Ind. — A man who abducted his 5-month-old baby girl after allegedly assaulting her mother on Tuesday may face deportation.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials placed a detainer on Hung Vi Ong barring his release from the Madison County Jail.
ICE spokeswoman Gail Montenegro said the detainer was requested "because we believe he may be eligible for deportation."
That news was delivered as the 32-year-old Vietnamese national was being arraigned Wednesday by Madison Circuit Court Magistrate Stephen Clase.
Ong was charged with one count of Class C felony intimidation, and another count of Class A misdemeanor domestic battery.
According to a probable cause affidavit, Anderson police responded to the Autumn Ridge apartments office on Tuesday afternoon where a woman identified as Ong's girlfriend had sought refuge.
The woman told police she and Ong had been arguing and he became physically abusive. According to court documents, he choked her, threw her against a wall and punched her in the right eye.
Ong also allegedly threatened to stab his girlfriend and infant daughter with a knife, according to the affidavit. After that, he fled with the child.
He agreed to release the baby to a family friend shortly after driving off. Ong turned over the child to the friend at a coffee shop on Scatterfield Road. But he fled the scene before police could arrive.
After extensive negotiations with relatives, according to the affidavit, Ong agreed to turn himself in and returned to the apartment complex where police were waiting.
Ong told police he became angry because his girlfriend had insulted his family, according to the affidavit. In addition, Ong said he used the knife to scare his girlfriend so she wouldn't leave him with the baby.
"The crying baby gave him a headache to the point that it drove him crazy," Ong said, according the court document.
In addition to the charges he now faces here, Ong is also wanted on a misdemeanor larceny charge in California, Anderson Police Department spokesman Detective Joel Sandefur said.

Huntington, NY – In today's fast-paced digital world, "multitasking" is a way of life. For teens and parents alike, multitasking while driving a motor vehicle can prove to be a deadly combination.
"Multitasking with smartphones and other mobile devices are designed to make it easier for us to connect and communicate with the world around us," stated Councilman Mark Cuthbertson. "However, the dangers of multitasking while behind the wheel could be the difference between life and death. This program will educate teens on the perils of distracted driving and how to keep them safe while on the road," added Cuthbertson.
Councilman Cuthbertson will be partnering with the Town of Huntington Youth Bureau, Empower, Assist & Care [EAC] Network and the Suffolk County Traffic & Parking Violations Agency to present a FREE program on the Dangers of Distracted Driving.
The program will be held at the Cinema Arts Center on Wednesday, June 7 from 7:15pm to 8:00pm. The Cinema Arts Center is located at 423 Park Avenue in Huntington.
Certificates of attendance will be given to all students who attend, which can be submitted to their respective school for 1.5 hours of "community service" credit.


Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's divorce battle continues.
The 41-year-old actress slams Pitt in new court documents obtained by ET on Wednesday, saying that her estranged husband is insistent on sealing divorce docs pertaining to custody because he's "terrified that the public will learn the truth."
While Jolie agrees that sealing custody-related records would be in the best interest of the couple's six children -- Maddox, 15, Pax, 13, Zahara, 11, Shiloh, 10, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 8 -- the new court documents, filed by the star's attorney, Laura Wasser, in Los Angeles on Tuesday, slam the recent motion filed by Pitt's lawyers to seal information related to their temporary custody agreement.
Pitt's attorney, Lance Spiegel, filed court docs supporting Pitt's request to have custody documents sealed on Dec. 21, after his request for an emergency hearing about the case was denied weeks earlier.
In his motion, Pitt accused Jolie of disregarding their children's "privacy rights when she believes it may benefit her," claiming that the actress "exposed the children by making public the names of their therapist and other mental health professionals."
Jolie "apparently has no self-regulation mechanism to preclude sensitive information from being placed in the public record," Pitt's documents stated, "or she has other motives pursuant to which she seeks to disseminate information in this proceeding which will be immediately made public, where the children can access it or where people in the general public will have access to it for their own uses."
In Jolie's filing on Tuesday, the actress' lawyer accuses Pitt of trying to "deflect from [his] own role in the media storm which has engulfed the parties' children."
"There is little doubt that [Pitt] would prefer to keep the entire case private, particularly given the detailed investigations by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Dept. of Children and Family Services into allegation of abuse," the documents state.
Though Pitt has been cleared by both the FBI and Department of Children and Family Services after investigations following an incident during a family flight home from Europe in September, a source tells ET that "it doesn't mean he didn't do anything wrong."
"The kids are clearly traumatized, and Angelina has been protecting the kids by not revealing what really happened on the plane," the source says. "The interest since the onset of this has not changed, and all along that has been to protect the well-being of the children."
A source close to Pitt, meanwhile, tells ET that Jolie cooperated with both investigations. "Clearly her claims were considered legitimate enough to impact those conclusions. And if she held back information which, we don't believe that she did, then isn't she then not representing the best interests of her children by holding it back?"
"Thankfully after four months of on record statements, leaks and unnecessary and intrusive filings she is coming around to realizing that confidentiality is actually in the best interests of her children and family," the source adds.
Jolie was granted full custody of all six kids on Dec. 2. Court documents stated that Pitt would continue to have agreed-upon therapeutic visits with his kids, as determined by the family's therapist, who "shall at times consider the best interests of the minor children."

Did you know the benefits of olive oil? - SEYTOO.COM
Did you know the benefits of olive oil?
Thanks to its components, this most digestible fatty food is an asset to stay in good health.
Updated on January 15, 2021, Seytoo
Among edible oils, olive oil extracted from the fruits of the olive tree occupies a prominent place, as much for its taste as for the beneficial action it has on our health.
Its benefits have been known for thousands of years. Indeed, archaeological excavations have made it possible to attest to the presence of the olive tree in all the countries of the Mediterranean basin from the third millennium BC.
It is true that olive oil, made up of 99% fat, has monounsaturated fatty acids that lower total cholesterol levels and in particular that of "bad" cholesterol in the blood. In addition, the vitamin A and vitamin E content of olive oil enhances its cardiovascular benefits. But by facilitating the digestion of heavy foods such as fat, olive oil would also have a preventive action against colon cancer and even against breast cancer. Its richness in omega 9 would protect the human brain against aging. Thus, thanks to its components, this most digestible fatty food is an asset to stay in good health.
Moreover, its taste and aroma give it a special place in the kitchen. First of all, olive oil has the advantage that it can be used both raw and cooked. This is because it only deteriorates above 210 ° C (its smoke point is not reached quickly). Let us remember that oil that smokes becomes toxic and should not be consumed. However, olive oil is widely consumed raw, especially in the preparation of traditional sauces from the Mediterranean basin such as tapenade or aioli, but also in classic dressings.
Finally, olive oil is used in cosmetology and is used in the manufacture of many beauty products.

How many times do you or a staffer touch incoming merchandise?
Ever thought about how much time that takes?
Ever thought about how much MONEY that takes?
Take the batch from the consignor/ seller/ donor. Put it in your accepting area.
Label it with the info you will need to later process it.
Sort into things you can accept and those you can't.
Go back and price each item.
Rehang, fold, whatever. Maybe even steam it? Place on the sales floor.
Label NTYs. Move them into short-term storage. Fetch them when the consignor/ seller comes to take them back.
1- First, check the areas most likely to have too much wear: armpits, crotch, neck and wrists. Stains, pilling, discoloration. Then, whether any elastic the garment might have is still snappy. Soil often shows most on the satin neck label.
2- Check for fading across shoulders, under lapels, across collar. Yes, things fade even in dark closets.
And of course you don't need to go through this entire process if the item is one that doesn't pass the first few tests: a style your clientele wants, clean, odor-free. THOSE items get put aside without a second glance. The above 5 steps don't matter if it's not a style your customers will buy, if it's soiled or reeks of smoke/ moth balls/ pets.
For more on how to accept and price incoming with profit in mind, get your own copy of Your Money-Wise Guide to Accepting & Pricing, a Too Good to be Threw Product for the Professional Resaler. Wouldn't you love to have an hour or more back, every day? You can!

Are you targeting your marketing efforts properly? Quality, condition, and stylishness in your incoming makes your shop grow. Think about it, whether you're aiming to attract consignors, sellers or donors.
A thought for all shopkeepers, not just those who have resale or consignment shops. One thing that I love about being in retail is that our feedback is often instantaneous, and totally controlled by what we do.
Here's to doing what works best for YOUR future in 2013!
for next year. After all, no one wants to store them for the next eleven months, and YOU want to be sure you have them bright and early next Christmas.

What to expect from Apple's big keynote
By Agency Staff	 3 September 2016 3 Comments
It's September, and that means it's time for the next iPhone.
Earlier this week, Apple sent out invitations to a 7 September event, drumming up excitement with the tagline, "See you on the 7th". Some industry watchers think that's a play on words for the expected name of the new iPhone, the "iPhone 7".
Apple has reported two straight quarters of year-over-year revenue declines and there are questions about demand for a device that remains the company's main source of profit.
Apple hopes faster iPhones with significant camera improvements will prop up sales ahead of an expected larger overhaul in 2017 for the device's 10th anniversary. It's set to release a faster Apple Watch with GPS to try to re-ignite interest in that nascent category.
Here's a breakdown of what to expect at Apple's event from each product line:
A tweaked design that looks similar to the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6s, but removes the two inner-most antenna lines on the back of the device for a cleaner look.
The same 4,7-inch and 5,5-inch screen sizes as the previous two iPhone lines.
A pressure-sensitive "home" button that provides a vibrating sensation in response to button presses instead of an actual physical click, similar to the latest MacBook trackpads.
The removal of the headphone jack in favour of a secondary grille for either an additional speaker or microphone. An improved single-lens rear camera system on the new 4,7-inch model.
A new dual-lens camera system on the 5,5-inch model, allowing for deeper zooming with less reduction in clarity and better low-light photography.
A faster processor, a successor to the A9 chip in the iPhone 6s. Support for FeliCa-based payments in Japan, in the works for either this year's model or next year's overhaul.
New Watch
A GPS chip for more accurate fitness tracking.
A faster processor for launching applications and navigating the operating system.
Battery life improvements to support the power-intensive addition of GPS.
iOS 10 will be available on the iPhone 5 from 2012 and later.
The updated software includes an improved iMessage application with support for new animations, stickers and third-party plug-ins, voicemail transcription, notifications that show more detail, and an application for controlling smart home appliances.
watchOS 3, the new version of the Apple Watch's software, speeds up app launch times, includes a new SOS feature to call emergency services, a new app to monitor breathing, and the ability to use Apple Pay within apps.
tvOS 10, the new version of the Apple TV software, is supported by the fourth-generation model (which comes with Siri) and adds the ability to universally sign in to many content apps, a dark mode for navigating through the system at night, and a redesigned view for Apple Music.
macOS Sierra, the latest version of the Mac operating system, adds support for Apple Pay transactions on the Web, Siri voice control, new photo management and messaging features, and the ability for Apple Watch wearers to automatically login to their Macs.
Coming Later
One hardware category that may not be discussed in detail on 7 September is the Mac line. However, Apple will begin shipping some of its future Macs as soon as October, according to people familiar with the matter. Here are the details:
An overhauled MacBook Pro with a "dynamic function row" display that allows function keys to change based on the task at hand, a faster processor, new graphics card options from AMD, a larger trackpad, flatter keyboard, and USB-C port technology.
Updated MacBook Air models with multi-functional USB-C port technology.
A faster iMac with new graphics card options from AMD.
A 5K standalone monitor developed in conjunction with LG Electronics. — (c) 2016 Bloomberg LP

Jurassic on 3 September 2016 4:11 pm
It's more likely that the now obsolete MacBook Air models will be dropped entirely, and that a larger (perhaps 14″) MacBook model will be introduced.
The MacBook Air design is several years old, uses older technologies, and has a low resolution display. It comes in 11″ and 13″ models.
The 12″ MacBook is thinner, lighter, and uses newer technologies (including Retina display) than the "Air" models… Which doesn't make sense just from the "Air" name, which implies a lighter model (which it isn't).
With the 12″ MacBook being in the middle in size, with only 1 inch separating it from the 11″ and 13″ MacBook Air models, it would make sense that a new MacBook model would not be 11″ or 13″ display size, but rather a 14″ display size.
It is possible that after dropping the old MacBook Air models, Apple might choose to rename the 12″ MacBook and its larger 14″ version to "MacBook Air", but that name change would really be unnecessary and confusing.
Robert Hancock on 3 September 2016 11:03 pm
What does this mean? Perhaps, "iOS 10 will be supported on all iPhone models from the iPhone 5 launched in 2012."
Greg Mahlknecht on 4 September 2016 11:42 am
>unnecessary and confusing
I don't follow the apple stuff closely, and your post hurt my head. I think they need to rethink their product naming. It's impossible to tell anything about the product from its name!

Krojenie w kuchni chińskiej () – zestaw umiejętności praktycznych w kuchniach chińskich, związanych z obróbką i przygotowywaniem pokarmów za pomocą noża kuchennego.

Krojenie jest jedną z fundamentalnych umiejętności w zakresie przygotowywania posiłków w kuchniach chińskich, na równi z opanowaniem temperatury ognia i umiejętnością mieszania smaków. W starożytnych Chinach całą sztukę gotowania zwano ge-peng, czyli kroić i gotować. Opanowanie umiejętności perfekcyjnego krojenia jest ważne, w kontekście faktu, że większość dań w Chinach jest przygotowywana metodą szybkiego przesmażania, co wymaga maksymalnie krótkiego czasu podgrzewania w wysokiej temperaturze. Po drugie na chińskim stole nie widuje się praktycznie noży, a zatem jedzenie musi być pokrojone wstępnie na małe kawałki lub przygotowane w sposób łatwy do podzielenia pałeczkami podczas jedzenia.

Pieczołowite podejście Chińczyków do tej materii zaowocowało bardzo rozbudowanym słownictwem kulinarnym, odnośnie do krojenia. W zakresie sposobu cięcia mówi się o: krojeniu pionowym (qie), poziomym (pian) oraz siekaniu (zhan, kan). Powyższe zyskuje dodatkowe nazwy, jeśli bierze się pod uwagę kąt nachylenia noża i kierunek cięcia (co najmniej 15 możliwości). Istnieje też około 12 terminów na techniki zbliżone do krojenia, np. ucieranie (chui), skrobanie (gua), czy żłobienie (wan). Można też przecierać, piłować czy toczyć składniki.

Osobne instrumentarium słowne odnosi się do efektów krojenia, przy czym często są to określenia bardzo poetyckie. Kształty nadane pokrojonemu pożywieniu, to np. plastry (pian), paski czy tasiemki (tiao), kęski czy kawałki (kuai), duże kawałki (duan), drobinki (li), skrawki (mo), ziarenka (mi), kosteczki (ding), a także pasemka (si). Zmielenie lub zmiażdżenie na masę nazywa się rong lub nizi, a formy nietypowe (np. kulka lub kłos) to huadaokuai. Wszystkie te nazwy mają wiele podwariantów, np. plastry mogą być małe jak paznokieć, prostokątne jak domino lub wielkie i cienkie jak ozór wołowy. Dymkę można pokroić np. na kwiaty, rybie oczy albo jedwabne nici.

Ta wielka różnorodność efektów uzyskiwana jest bardzo niewielkim nakładem narzędzi. Chiński kucharz najczęściej (poza ciężkimi pracami, jak rąbanie żeberek) posługuje się jednym tylko, wielofunkcyjnym nożem – tasakiem (cai dao, 菜刀), którego ostra strona służy do krojenia, tępa np. do ucierania, płaska zaś do miażdżenia.

Oppal Confused on Voter ID Law?
AG calls tightened requirements a 'good move' but cites report that says opposite.
By Andrew MacLeod 13 May 2008 | TheTyee.ca
Andrew MacLeod is The Tyee's Legislative Bureau Chief in Victoria. You can reach him here.
BC Attorney General Wally Oppal.
Attorney General Wally Oppal said tightening voter identification requirements is a "good move" that will prevent abuses of the province's electoral system.
He also said the changes are based on recommendations made in a 2006 report by chief electoral officer Harry Neufeld. However, that report does not recommend strengthening the requirements -- in fact it suggests easing them in some situations.
"I think it's a good move," said Oppal, who pointed out the proposed legislation is in line with federal laws. "There has to be some responsibility, as well as a right, conferred on people in a democracy when you want to vote. Voting is a right of course, but it also carries with it a responsibility."
The proposed rules included in Bill 42, the Election Amendment Act, require voters to have identification issued either by the province or the federal government that includes their name, photograph and address. Unlike the federal rules, the provincial rules also accept proof of status under the Indian Act.
Without identification, a person can vote if somebody else who is on the voters list will vouch for them. Nobody will be allowed to vouch for more than one person.
New rules challenged
The proposed changes have met criticism from anti-poverty advocates, the B.C. Civil Liberties Association, the B.C. Public Interest Advocacy Centre and the NDP, who say it will make voting more difficult for people who are homeless or who have recently moved.
PIAC is already challenging the federal rules, and will fight the province's changes as well. "We expect the provincial legislation, if they are foolish enough to proceed with it, to fall along with the federal law," the organization's executive director, Jim Quail, told The Tyee.
Oppal said the proposed rules won't be a barrier to people who want to vote.
There are three ways to register, he said. "I think people should be able to fit into one of the three categories," he said. "I recognize it may be more difficult for people who are homeless. All you really need is one person from the riding to attest to the fact this person is eligible to vote in the riding. I don't think that's really asking too much. We have to guard against potential voter registration abuse."
Asked if there had been any such abuses, he said, "We have no documented evidence of abuses, but it's always good to have precautionary steps like that. If abuses do take place, then we're going to be criticized for not having the framework there to prevent abuses."
Report spurred changes
The change was proposed after the independent officer who oversees provincial elections made suggestions for improving how we vote, Oppal said. "What's happened now is the chief electoral officer came to us in 2006 and said the Elections Act has to be reformed and that amendments should take place," he said. That report included 60 recommendations, he said.
"We thought it was an appropriate time to re-examine the Elections Act, so that's another amendment we put in there."
Except the changes Oppal is making do not appear to have been recommended by the chief electoral officer.
Harry Neufeld submitted his Chief Electoral Officer: Recommendations for Legislative Change report to the speaker in March 2006. Such reports are written after each general election, the report says. The government has failed to act on most of the suggestions made since 1996, it says. "Unfortunately, very few of the recommendations have been acted upon."
Law makes it 'harder to vote': NDP MLA
The 30-page report suggests easing the identification requirements. As things are, a potential voter has to provide two documents that between them include proof of his or her name, address and signature. If the individual does not have proof of an address, the person still needs two documents and "may make a solemn declaration as to their place of residence."
Neufeld found, "This requirement is a barrier to registration for voters who are in medical facilities or correctional facilities, where the individuals do not have identity documents in their possession."
He suggested giving election officials discretion to only require one document with a potential voter's name and a solemn declaration of their address when they are voting in a medical or correctional facility.
The NDP's homelessness and mental health critic, Vancouver-Kensington MLA David Chudnovsky, said it is unbelievable and ironic the Liberal government would make it harder for homeless people to vote at a time when there are more of them than at any time since the Great Depression.
"Our problem in B.C. is not that too many people vote, it's that too few people vote," he said. "The purpose should be to make it easier for people to vote, not make it harder. This legislation does make it harder."
Oppal introduced the bill on April 30. It is among several bills that will be passed at 5 p.m. on May 29, even if it has not yet gone through all the normal stages of debate.

Q: jQuery example (in jsfiddle) working in firefox but not in IE8, 7 Why this example not working in IE http://jsfiddle.net/8RZVt/
I'm getting this error in IE8.
Message: Invalid argument.
Line: 156
Char: 295
Code: 0
URI: http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.4.4.min.js

A: According to jQuery, this is because, as stated on the animate documentation page:

All animated properties should be a
  single numeric value (except as noted
  below); properties that are
  non-numeric cannot be animated using
  basic jQuery functionality....

So, in fact, in Firefox you are using undefined behavior.  The correct thing to do would be to animate on backgroundPositionX, however Firefox does not support this.
There is, however, a jQuery plugin that does what you want:
http://plugins.jquery.com/project/backgroundPosition-Effect
Update
On closer inspection, the plugin does not support += or -= formats.
I hacked it into this example:
http://jsfiddle.net/CxqSs/  (See new example at bottom.)
Could definitely use some cleanup, and should probably be added to that plug-in, but it works in both browsers and doesn't rely on undefined behavior.
BTW, I don't know if it's worth noting, but if you leave this animation running a long time, it will eventually overflow the value and break.  This could be overcome by animating the full length of the background image and then resetting the offset to 0px in the callback before the next animate.  This would also avoid needing the += format.
Also,
It should be noted that speed: 1, step: 1 and speed: 50, step: 50 are equivalent.
The reason they look different speeds is because

*

*There is more overhead in a speed of 1 (which is really a millisecond duration) because animate gets called more often.

*The default easing is "swing", meaning that the animation speeds up and slows down slightly throughout it's course, meaning that the overall speed is affected a bit.  You should change the easing to "linear" for your scrolling case:
var animate = function() {
    element.animate({
        ...
    }, speed, "linear", animate);
};

This means that you could use the backgroundPosition-Effect plugin, without the '+=', by setting your step to 2247 (the width of the image), like I stated above.
And that finally brings us to... wait for it...
http://jsfiddle.net/zyQj3/20/
Cross-platform, non-kludgy, non-overflowing, correctly easing, extra parameter-lacking, solution.

A: The script fails at this point because you are passing an invalid CSS value:
element.animate({
          backgroundPosition: animStep + " 0px" /* evaluates to "+=50px 0px" */
 }, speed, animate);

A: OK here  we go again :D
http://jsfiddle.net/c7rKV/1/
Again identical to original however again just animating backgroundPositionX when in IE.
Apologies on not actually looking at FF/Chrome last time.
Additionally: this of course is not very graceful and Adam Prax is absolutely correct on what the problem is.  I just wanted to post a solution to it.

A: If you check the source code of jQuery, you will see it uses this regexp to parse the parameter (which in your case is +=50px 0px). So it will see it as += (increase) 50 (to fifty) px 0px (unit, append after the number). When trying to read the current value, jQuery uses  parseFloat, which just grabs the number at the start of the string. So it works perfectly, even if a multi-dimensional property is probably not what the jQuery programmers had in mind.
Except that IE8 does not support getting the current value of background-position. There is background-position-x and background-position-y but no background-position. Duh. So your best bet is checking the browser type, and animating either background-position or background-position-x depending on that: http://jsfiddle.net/22UWW/
(There is actually a jQuery bug report about this, with a more elegant solution.)

Home News Press Releases Better promotion of women and diversity at Jenoptik
RecommendMail Facebook Twitter LinkedIn
Better promotion of women and diversity at Jenoptik
Jenoptik improved significantly in the reassessment by the Women's Career Index (FKi). A large number of internal measures are showing initial success, but also development potential. The Group signed the Charter of Diversity.
In 2020, the Jenoptik Group, with high priority and the support of the Executive Board, pursued many initiatives which promote greater diversity and the careers of women and thus contribute to a modern corporate culture. As reported in spring 2020, the extended management body of Jenoptik has set targets for management positions. For example, 30 percent of global management positions are to be filled by women and 30 percent of global managers are to be of international origin.
These targets are not only taken into account in corporate communications and recruiting, but also in the analysis in the Women's Career Index (FKi). After 2019, Jenoptik was again audited by FKi in the current year and achieved a significantly better result of 79 index points than in the previous year (68 points). Jenoptik is also ahead of comparable companies in Germany, which have an average index of 77 points.
While in 2019 the general conditions such as flexible working hours, mobile working and childcare were rated as very good, the assessment of 2020 showed "a significant improvement in the development since the first indexation and many promising measures. The findings from the initial indexation were translated into measures and clear objectives were formulated." For an industrial company Jenoptik has a comparatively high proportion of women in the company with over 30 percent. Jenoptik set up regular internal monitoring and reporting on the target figures in order to track developments.
FKi is an independent analysis instrument that examines how women at various management levels develop in their careers, how cultural changes are progressing and how openness to transformation and innovation is created. In the approximately 40-page data entry form, various aspects of the company are examined on the basis of sub-indices, such as status and dynamics, commitment and general conditions.
Initiatives for more diversity
In order to further accelerate the change in corporate culture, Jenoptik has launched further measures within the group in 2020. There are, for example, internal and external recruiting campaigns, women's networks and regular (online) events for the exchange of ideas, which are specifically but not exclusively aimed at women. A "Jenoptik Diversity Council" was also established in the fall of 2020 as an internal contact for questions relating to diversity within the company. Permanent members are the President & CEO, Dr. Stefan Traeger, the Head of Global Human Resources, Maria Koller, two works council representatives, two international female managers and two persons representing the interests of the LGBT+ community and ethnic minorities.
"Diversity is very important to us. Diversity in the working environment promotes that every employee feels respected and valued. In addition, an open, intercultural as well as interdisciplinary climate also increases creativity and productivity in teams, which has a positive effect on revenue," says Jenoptik CEO Stefan Traeger.
"We are delighted about the good rating in the FKi, which recognizes our focus on diversity in order to further promote the careers of women in the Jenoptik Group," says Maria Koller, Head of Global HR. "Our aim is to continue to strengthen the measures we have launched with consistency and the appropriate storytelling that women in the company and in management positions are not individual measures but define the entire group in its orientation and culture."
Charter of Diversity signed
Jenoptik advocates an appreciative and working environment free of prejudice that values talent based on merit – regardless of age, gender and gender identity, ethnic background and nationality, religion and belief, sexual orientation and identity or physical ability. This is why Jenoptik signed the Diversity Charter in August 2020 and is thus part of an employer initiative to promote diversity in companies and institutions.

One of the biggest challenges of having a septic system on your property is dealing with the appearance of the drain field. Sometimes homeowners find that the drain field itself is unattractive, and that can be problematic. If you've been thinking about doing something to improve the appearance of your septic system's drain field, there are a few things that you need to know. Here are some tips to safely landscape it so that you don't affect the delicate balance of the system.
Before you can do anything with the drain field, you need to choose your plants carefully and make sure that you don't have to do a lot of prep work to the area. In fact, the less you have to disturb the drain field soil, the better.
Choose plants that have a shallow rooting system, because anything that roots too deep could disrupt the lines and the sublayers of your drain field. You also don't want plants with aggressive roots. Delicate roots are much less likely to cause any damage. They should also be low maintenance. Opt for things that will grow without much intervention, watering, or other care.
You also need to make sure that any plants you choose don't require a lot of soil preparation. You don't want to work the soil in the drain field because the filtration system can start as little as a few inches below the surface. You can add an inch or two of topsoil above the field, but don't add more than that, because it could interfere with the air exchange.
One of the best mixtures for a drain field is a combination of grasses and wildflowers. Not only would it look pretty, but it's a great way to draw wildlife. You'll want to plant wildflowers that grow from bulbs, though, because it's an easier way to plant in the area and create a mixture of different seasonal blooms.
Look for flower bulbs that are fairly tolerant of drought and work well in whatever type of sunlight your drainfield receives. In addition, start with new bulbs, not ones that have been sitting for a year or so. Consider a mixture of annuals and perennials so that you get a steady cycle of blooms.
With these tips, you can turn that unsightly drain field into a mass of color and delicate flowers. Talk with your septic tank repair contractor before planting, though, to make sure you know where all of the components are placed. The more proactive you are, the better your results will be.

Orange Is the New Black's Uzo Aduba Has Trouble Not Taking Suzanne Home With Her
By Maria Elena Fernandez
Spoilers ahead for Orange Is the New Black season five.
Uzo Aduba has won two Emmys for her portrayal of Suzanne Warren, the lovable, mentally ill inmate on Orange Is the New Black whose outburst during the tense cafeteria showdown between the inmates and guards in the season-four finale inadvertently led to the death of her good friend, Poussey (Samira Wiley). In the new season, Suzanne finds herself again grappling with death as the inmates riot and take over Litchfield Prison. Off her medications, Suzanne spirals emotionally out of control, which builds to a scary turn of events for her and her pals. Aduba spoke to Vulture about the challenges she faces getting both in and out of character, the season's emotional roller coaster, and how the story comes full circle in the end.
Before we talk about this season, tell me what went through your mind last season when you read that Poussey's death would be so intertwined with Suzanne's story.
It cut deep, I guess, would be the way I would describe it. It felt like a piece of a limb or something was being taken because she and I, if viewers remember, we have a sordid past. From season two, our relationship has had to grow and find its legs. We watched our friendship and love grow onscreen. It wasn't there to begin with because we had to overcome the bathroom fight scene in season two with Vee, and then we had to resolve that. And then we had a real tender love for one another. So then to be present for the second exchange of violence with her — not on the offending end, but rather this 180-degree moment where we'd gone from being foe to friend. And to lose somebody who was really so caring and loving to Suzanne, it hurt. It really hurt. And on a personal level, it hurt selfishly because I was sad to lose my friend in real life.
What was the experience of coming back to the show with both Samira Wiley missing from the cast and filming being so different because the story takes place over a few days?
Coming back to the show was somewhat bittersweet in the sense that in those early days, you could feel the sting of her not being there, particularly in the ghetto dorm because we'd worked together so tightly and so extensively, the five of us — myself, Samira, Danielle Brooks, Adrienne C. Moore, and Vicky Jeudy — we're the ones who play together the most, and also Kimiko Glenn, too. We played together so much. And we'd sort of developed a machinery in the sense that we knew how the camaraderie all played together, the dynamic of the tribe worked, we had the shorthand and the vocabulary together. To lose an element of that dynamic felt off and was useful in the playing of the scenes because that is exactly what happened. We did, in fact, lose a friend. So it worked in the telling of the story. But then we started to realize we had to morph the shape of our group slightly. And actually we realized we didn't even lose somebody at all because her presence was so alive in the way the story was being told.
This season, Suzanne herself is separated from the pack. It's a lot of play between Taystee, Black Cindy, Janae, and Abdullah. When we do finally come back together, Poussey still feels very much alive but you can't feel her in a physical way. It's interesting because Suzanne has come back into the group after trying to mourn and understand and make peace with the situation in the only way she knows how. And the women have all come back into the group after releasing a lot of their frustration, pain, and anger in the only way that they know how as well.
How did it feel to perform that? Suzanne is off by herself a lot this season.
It was that feeling of feeling lost because that's where we are. We feel lost. We've lost someone. You know? There is something about creating an atmosphere of not knowing in which direction to move. After you've lost someone close to you, when you move through the world, it's almost like you don't even see the world. You can't. You have no grasp on reality to some degree because all your concentration and energy is focused in on the pain and so much is swirling around you. You're just trying to make it through the day.
That atmosphere was created on this show this season where a lot of these characters are torn and being pulled in various directions — be it because of the system, be it because of the physical loss of a member of our community. Everybody has reached their threshold and is in a state of mourning of some kind, whether that's a mourning of the way things used to be here or mourning of a friend, a mourning of a lover, a mourning of a tribesman. And we're doing something no one in this prison has ever done before. None of these women have ever been empowered, and we see people who don't sometimes know what to do with that.
I imagine Suzanne is a very tough character to play. How were you able to unlock her in the beginning? Do you find it easy to slip back into her shoes in season five, or does it still take a little bit of work for you to get into Suzanne?
It depends on the moment. I try to unlock her in different ways. As far as dealing with loss, we're seeing her have to wrestle with that for the second time in this show. And she didn't really get it the first time. She was really having a hard time understanding, if you remember, with Vee, when she was trying to make peace with this idea of heaven and afterlife, is there such a thing, which I think most people wonder about or certainly question at various points in their life. We're watching that same attempt at trying to get a grasp of understanding happening with Suzanne. So from that standpoint, it's no different, the approach. I just know that her lens is set to a different setting than most people traditionally look through. But I still approach it with the same intentions and obstacles and questions and needs and wants in any scene.
As far as the getting into her, there are days that are easier to slip into her just because I am familiar with her. I know her so well. Suzanne is a person, a full-fledged person to me. It would not be shocking to me if I saw her on the street. I'd be like, There she is. I knew I'd meet you someday. You know? She is very real to me. There are still times when getting into certain parts and moments in the show that can be challenging and take some extra work —the séance or when she is really at the end of her rope towards the end of season five. As familiar as I am with some of those experiences she's had, they are still different and new experiences and they take the work of getting into them. I will say, though, what I find more challenging now is getting out of her because I know her so well. She seeps into me so easily, into my bloodstream.
I was going ask you if it's hard leaving her at the end of the day. Are you totally exhausted? How do you get her out of your system?
Sometimes it's hard to. I would say if I have to do a lot of the work, physical work, journaling work, like cooling-down work, really, of leaving her there in Litchfield and not bringing her experiences, her world, her traumas home with me 'cause they are not mine.
You mentioned the séance — what was challenging about that? I thought that scene was so beautiful. Suzanne really wanted to get in touch with her friend.
It's this delicate balance. I find this show is something that for me dances on a razor's edge of simplicity and complication. And making the comedy subtle when you need to and finding how not to overly complicate or take some of the complications of the dramatic tones and nuance them in some way. When we get into the séance, it's this game that everybody knows and plays, but she is taking very seriously. And the actor in me, knowing what I'm reading on the page, could go one of two ways. Either this could be played very seriously or this could have a little bit of something else in it. Finding the space where it doesn't tilt so far into being overly broad but just lands somewhere where the audience can take from it what they want to.
I think things like that are hard because you gotta really work out the math of it. Comedy is math, like how do you play … what portion are you gonna pour into the cup of your castmates for them to give to you the thing that you need to make the next line work. How long are we gonna do this ohm for, you know what I mean? You really have to think about it and then at the same time be very, very ready to let it go.
That's what I admire about your work. Comedy on its own is very hard. But in this case, it's even harder because it's funny to us but it's not funny to Suzanne. You have to balance that.
That's the balance of it. It can never be funny to her because she absolutely means what she is saying.
Then you get to episode seven, which is when Suzanne starts to lose it. There's that scene with Pennsatucky where she's talking to herself and her imaginary family. Are those scenes easier for you, now that you know her so well?
I guess I would say it's easier to find but it's not any easier to experience the putting down of her pain. Because what I started to understand about Suzanne even more is that she is such a lover, and then there is this other complicated psychological end to her where it's someone who is very aware they are being misunderstood and really connecting to that, what that frustration must be like. Have ever read or seen The Miracle Worker, that play about Helen Keller?
And how frustrated she was and how she acted out against Anne Sullivan because she couldn't communicate her feelings and that's why she was behaving the way she was behaving. She is aware that people are making fun of her. She may not understand the joke to the finish line every time in that moment but she might think about it three days later and then she gets it. Or she knows what she said was not kind and that's a hard world to live in.
Things go south so fast for Suzanne when the guards are brought over to her cellblock to be her bunkmates.
Oh, I know.
It was so upsetting when they tied her up and Suzanne is screaming, "Don't do this, please!" Do you ever fight with the writers and say, "No, I don't want to do that?"
Sure! But you know what? Here's the thing: That was a tough thing because from a socially conscious level it's, ya know, what does this mean and what are we saying? And when you listen to her, when she has the makeup all over her face, it's tough. I'm a person of the world, I have a very strong belief and opinion of what that can represent and feel like, ya know?
And the thing that I thought was most powerful about that was, and what I respect more than anything and appreciate, is getting on the phone with [Jenji Kohan] and having that conversation. She's not afraid of the tough conversation. And she says, this is making us all uncomfortable, so we should be talking about this. Why do we want to sweep it under the rug or not have that experience?
And then that does beg for me, the artist, to say, yeah, that is intense. And what if we all sat in these feelings for a while and maybe that'll help us to think differently about when we portray moments like these, when we choose to walk out of our home dressed in the outfit that is not the most respectful to whichever ethnic group. Or perhaps we should think twice about whether we wear this makeup or not because of the historical implications, and this might be offensive to an entire group of people, ya know? I think she is not afraid of stepping into those uncharted waters and calling a spade a spade and asking our society to really look at itself and ask itself whether we are who we say we are.
The writing in the scene when Suzanne goes to the bathroom and she's looking at herself saying, "My face is wrong, my face is under," was incredible. That was the episode directed by Laura Prepon (who plays Alex).
Yes, it was. And that speech was written by Jenji.
That speech and your performance were so moving. How did you work with Laura on that scene? What kinds of things did you discuss?
Laura was just across-the-board incredible. First of all, I was so proud of her just because she knows what she's doing. She was really interested in hearing what we as actors feel and are thinking. Because one, that's our fellow castmate, ya know? She knows that we know these characters very well and she wanted to get in there and hear our insights. For me, I knew there was so much in there to harvest just as far as the conversation of colorism, the conversation of race, the conversation of interracial adoption, all of these things are embedded in that, right? And it requires a safe place to perform that out. Laura was always nearby, always generous with her work, calming. She is so calm anyway. She was a steady hand in moments throughout that entire episode. I really, really enjoyed working with her and was impressed with her ability, her professionalism, her kindness. She is genuinely warm. She's been doing this a long time, she knows how to treat actors.
Would you say that was your toughest scene?
That was one of the tougher scenes, certainly. That was one where I felt like Uzo and Suzanne are meeting in a tough space. I was conflicted, and I knew that. For Uzo, the person, it didn't feel good to wear that makeup. It did not feel good. I can only imagine what Suzanne must have felt like growing up her entire life with these feelings. It felt heavy, ya know? That was one of the tougher days of work, certainly.
And in the next episode you also have a very intense one where she's looking for heaven, and she is really, really losing it before Cindy gives her the lithium.
That was also an equally hard day of work as well. My want at this point for Suzanne is to take her and to hold her and to tell her everything is going to be okay. Yeah, those would be the days when I felt I really needed to do the work of releasing Suzanne and her life experience and what she is facing day to day in that prison and not carry it home with me.
Everyone's panicked while Suzanne is out and when she wakes up she's so Suzanne.
She didn't even know she was out. As far as she was concerned she just took a nap and is back to the peanut butter.
Then in the last scene, everyone is going different places. It doesn't seem like it's going to be the show we know.
I can neither confirm nor deny.
But how did you feel about the note it ends on?
It was so funny because it felt like a full-circle moment. We hadn't seen a lot of these characters together since season one. And there was something about that that felt incredibly powerful — seeing all these women we were introduced to in the beginning, who all were a part of separate tribes now being bonded together as one. It was very interesting how Jenji was able to bring that circle back around in such a different way. And being down there in the bunker was exciting and thrilling and left a door open for so much adventure to come flowing in. That's all I'm going to say.

Our sources tell us that Danielle, who got engaged to Michael on Valentine's Day last year, has started telling pals about the pregnancy.
One close friend said: "This is really lovely news for Danielle and Michael.
"With three boys already, Danielle would love a little girl, but she and Michael will be happy either way.
"They kept it a secret when they first found out but Danielle has had her three-month scan and they feel comfortable enough to start letting people know.
Danielle, who dumped Jamie in 2014 after reports that he had cheated on her, was targeted by online trolls during his stint on the Channel 5 show.
She told last month how the barbs were so cruel that she suffered panic attacks. But sources tell us electrician Michael has been her rock.
The ex-glamour model has sons Archie, six, Harry, five, and two-year-old George from her ill-fated marriage to the former Spurs footballer.
A collection of snaps on her Instagram account show Michael teaching the boys to ride bikes and carrying them on his shoulders.
The pal continued: "Michael has been a rock for Danielle. It's lovely for her that he has devoted so much time and energy to her boys.
"Archie, Harry and George are also excited about having a new brother or sister, and they can't wait to meet their new sibling.
Shortly after Michael proposed in a fancy London hotel last year, Danielle gushed in a glossy magazine: "Michael isn't into big, attention-seeking gestures.
"So it was even more special that he'd arranged the hotel and had the ring made.
We are with you on that one Danielle. Though, it is hard to see how it could get any worse.

One Gigabit-per-second Broadband Internet Speed is Coming to the Berkeley Public Library!
Contact: Alicia Abramson
Manager, Information Technology
Berkeley CA – October 19, 2015—The Berkeley Public Library is going live on a one Gigabit-per-second (Gbps) broadband Internet connection on Friday, October 23, 2015! Alicia Abramson, the Library's Manager of Information Technology says, "The Library recently conducted surveys of the Berkeley community and Library staff. In both surveys, the number one priority of those who responded was to increase the Library's Internet connection speed. We are thrilled to be able to address this vital need for Internet access and to improve community members' experience when connecting to the Internet from the Library."
The Library is an early participant in a joint initiative of the California State Library and the Corporation for Education Network Initiatives in California (CENIC) to bring 1GB Broadband connections to all public libraries and public schools (K-20) in California by 2020. CENIC "operates the California Research and Education Network (CalREN), a high-capacity network designed to meet the unique requirements of over 20 million users, including the vast majority of K-20 students together with educators, researchers and other vital public-serving institutions."
The increases will greatly benefit the community and will provide speeds far greater than the speeds available at the majority of public libraries. According to a national study conducted by the National Institute for Museum & Library Studies, in 2013, public libraries reported an average download speed of 57Mbps. Because of the Library's upgrade to Gigabit Broadband, the Library's connection speed will result in a 20-fold increase from 50 Megabits-per-second (Mbps to 1,000 Mbps (or 1 Gigabit-per-second).
In addition to providing access to books, movies music and more, public libraries are Internet access gateways for both users with no home Internet access or those with slower-speed home Internet access. A 2012 Pew Research Center nationwide study found that 26% of all Americans use the library to access the Internet. These users connect to do research for school or work (66%), obtain information about health and wellness (47%), and apply for jobs (36%).
The Berkeley Public Library received a grant of $20,000 from the California State Library towards the purchase of new network equipment required in order to implement the speed upgrade.
The Berkeley Public Library opened in 1893 with 264 books. It now has a Central library located at 2090 Kittredge Street, Berkeley, CA 94704 and four state-of-the-art neighborhood branches with thousands of books, audiobooks, music CDs, DVDs and online streaming and downloadable materials. For more information call 510-981-6195 or visit the library's website.

Infected again or endless COVID? How the 'reinfection phenomenon' could impact vaccines, herd immunity and human behavior.
In World/Latin America
By USA TODAY
Infected again or endless COVID? How the \'reinfection phenomenon\' could impact vaccines, herd immunity and human behavior.
By medical standards, Nicole Worthley is considered extraordinarily rare. She was diagnosed with COVID-19 on March 31 and again in September.
She was walloped both times, with a fever for six weeks and side effects all summer before round two kicked in.
But she can't prove she had COVID-19 twice. That requires genetic testing of both infections, which has only happened a few dozen times in the world, and never in South Dakota where she lives.
Many states are keeping track of claims of reinfection - South Dakota, for example, is studying at least 28, while Washington state is investigating 120 - but they are still considered extremely unusual, according to health experts, including the World Health Organization.
In Colorado, 241 people have had a second positive PCR test more than 90 days after the first one. "All are investigated as cases, including isolation instruction for the case and quarantine instruction for their close contacts," according to a Colorado Department of Health and Environment spokesperson.
There may be a COVID-19 vaccine by the end of the year. But 'normality' may not come until the end of 2021
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said in a statement that it is investigating some possible reinfections but has not yet confirmed any. It only considers infections more than 90 days apart to be possible reinfections; otherwise, someone's illness is likely a lingering infection.
Worthley said she's not sure which is worse: Being able to be reinfected, or having a lingering virus that could flare up anytime.
"Whether or not I personally have a proven reinfection isn't to me as important as it's possible that you can get it again," she said. "Or, if you don't believe that, then it's possible that for six straight months you can have COVID-19, still test positive for COVID-19 and still be actively ill from it - because I don't think there's a lot of understanding of that right now."
No one knows how long the immune system can keep someone safe from COVID-19 after infection.
Some diseases like measles are one and done. Once infected or vaccinated and the immune system typically provides protection forever. With other viruses, like the common cold - some of which are closely related to the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 - protection might not last a year, or even a season.
COVID-19 was discovered less than a year ago, so scientists don't yet know how long the body can fight it off.
The answer has implications for the longevity and effectiveness of vaccines, the possibility of communities developing so-called herd immunity where the virus no longer spreads because so many people have already been infected, and how those infected once should feel and behave.
Nicole Worthley says her 10-year-old son prayed for her health each night
Worthley, 37, could be considered a "long-hauler" - someone whose COVID-19 lasted for months after infection.
She was diagnosed the last day of March after suffering sharp chest pains. A few days later, she was so short of breath that she could barely walk across her apartment.
A single parent to three kids, ages 6, 8 and 10, Worthley struggled to function. "The room would be spinning and I'd be wheezing and stuff. Sometimes I could feel my teeth tingling," she said.
She ran a fever for four straight weeks, then had a break for a day or so - not enough to meet the 72-hour window to be declared healthy - and then spiked again for two more weeks.
She and her kids were stuck in their Sioux Falls apartment from late March until early June.
The children never got more than a few tired days and a yucky cough. But she knows her illness affected them. During his bedtime prayers, her oldest son often said he was thankful she was still alive.
In early June, the family was finally allowed to go out. Worthley was told she didn't need another test; she was no longer considered infectious.
She went back to work at the daycare center where she's an assistant teacher - but only part-time because the pandemic had driven away some families.
Still, all summer, Worthley, previously healthy though admittedly overweight, had weird symptoms. Her doctor prescribed a beta blocker for heart palpitations and an anticonvulsant for nerve pain in her legs.
She donated convalescent plasma in September, hoping the antibodies her immune system had developed could help someone else fight off COVID-19.
Then, at the end of September, about a month after her kids started in-person school, her 10-year-old came down with strep.
Worthley was feeling lousy, too, so she got tested for strep. Negative.
A few days later, still feeling weak, she called her doctor. Can you smell anything, the doctor asked.
"I got the Vicks out," Worthley said. Nothing.
Four days later, she got a positive COVID-19 test result.
"It was easier this time," she said. "I was only feverish for 17 days."
She had diarrhea, upset stomach, loss of taste and some respiratory issues, but not as bad as the first infection. More than a month later, though, she still can't smell and a half-hour phone call was punctuated with her coughs.
Worthley believes she is among the 28 people that the South Dakota Department of Health has said it's investigating for reinfection, although she's yet to hear from anyone at the state.
Scientists are in the 'early stages' of learning about COVID-19 reinfection
So far, only a few dozen people worldwide have been confirmed to have been infected twice with SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.
One man in Hong Kong didn't know he'd been infected a second time. He only found out when he was routinely tested on his return home from a trip to Italy. Another man, just 25, in Nevada, was sicker the second time.
In both cases, genetic analysis of the infections proved that they were infected twice, with slightly different versions of the virus - not just long-suffering. The World Health Organization has received reports of reinfections, but they are relatively rare so far.
"Our current understanding of the immune response is that the majority of people who are infected mount an immune response within a few weeks of infection," a WHO spokesman said via email. "We are still learning about how long the antibodies last. So far, we have data that shows that the immune response lasts for several months."
In a statement, a CDC spokesperson said the agency is actively investigating a number of suspected cases of reinfection, though none has been confirmed.
"CDC's investigation of the reinfection phenomenon is in its early stages," he said.
'Pleasantly surprised': Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine candidate shown to be 90% effective in early findings
Jeffrey Shaman, a professor at the Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health, who has been investigating reinfections, said scientists still have a lot of open questions.
Among other things, he said, they want to know: How often reinfection can happen, are people contagious with the second infection and for how long, and do people who are reinfected have less severe cases the second time - or are they worse off?
To answer those questions, researchers like him have to figure out what's behind these reinfections, Shaman said.
People might fail to generate immune memory with the first infection, and need repeated exposure to build up immunity. If so, a vaccine might have the same problem, and it won't be very effective.
Or people might get antibodies to the virus and then lose them, Shaman said. In that case, a vaccine's benefit might not last long.
The worst-case scenario would be what happens with dengue. In the case of that mosquito-borne tropical disease, someone can get sicker if infected a second time, or infected after getting a vaccine. Then, a vaccine could actually be harmful - though there's no evidence that's the case with COVID-19.
Sometimes diseases that start as outbreaks can become endemic, returning year after year.
The 1918 flu, for instance, was so devastating because it was new and no one had built up resistance, Shaman said. It came back repeatedly but "didn't have the huge pulses of people dying," he said, possibly because their bodies had built up some immunity to it.
If that's the case with COVID-19, then a vaccine, even a partially effective one, could have a big benefit by exposing people to the virus and helping them build up tolerance, he said.
It's not yet clear how long someone is contagious with COVID-19 if their symptoms linger or recur.
A study published Thursday in JAMA Internal Medicine found that 18% of COVID-19 patients in an Italian hospital tested positive again after recovering from symptoms and having a negative test.
Only 1 of the 32 patients tested showed signs of replicating virus in their bloodstream, suggesting that they were either still infectious or reinfected - but that couldn't be confirmed because no genetic testing was done. That patient was still suffering symptoms 39 days after initial diagnosis, though the others who tested positive again were unlikely to be contagious, the study concluded.
Until there are answers, play it safe: Mask up, wash hands, avoid crowds
Until scientists learn the answers to these questions, people who have been infected once shouldn't assume they're protected indefinitely, and should continue to wear masks, wash hands, maintain distance and avoid crowds, Shaman said.
"The only way we're going to get a sense of it is over time," he said.
Worthley admits she could have been more careful about wearing a mask. When she first caught COVID-19 in March, few people were wearing them, and Worthley didn't know of anyone - at church, work, her kids' schools - who had COVID.
In the summer and early fall, she wore a mask at work, but not at church. She assumed she'd be protected because she'd been sick for so long.
Now, Worthley said she's not confident of being protected against the virus, so she always wears a mask.
"I have a whole bunch of them in my van," she said.

Rent a Dumpster in Elverta Now!
Simply give us a call and we will answer any questions you may have about the Elverta dumpster rental procedure, allowed materials, size you may need, etc.
Our roll off containers can usually be delivered in Elverta the day after you place your order. Make sure to call us early to ensure timely delivery.
Renting a 40 yard dumpster will get you a container that holds about 40 cubic yards of waste. Dumpster sizes and dimensions aren't perfectly standard from company to company, but common measurements for a 40 yard container are 22 feet long by 8 feet wide by 8 feet high. This is the largest size that a lot of dumpster firms typically rent, so it is perfect for big residential projects as well as for commercial and industrial use.
When you rent a short-term dumpster, your aim is to fill it up and possess the waste hauled away. But should you prefer your waste recycled, you may need to really go about it in a somewhat different style. Waste in the majority of temporary dumpsters isn't recycled as the containers are so large and carry so much material.
If you're interested in recycling any waste from your job, check into getting smaller containers. Many dumpster rental companies in Elverta have a broad range of containers available, including those for recycling. All these are generally smaller than temporary dumpsters; they're the size of regular trash bins and smaller.
Should you need to recycle, figure out whether the business you're working with uses single stream recycling (you do not need to sort the substance) or in the event you'll need to form the recyclable material into different containers (aluminum cans, cardboard, plastics, etc.) This will really make a difference in the number of containers you have to rent.
5. Find out what services you get with your dumpster rental in Elverta.
Whether or not you require a long-term or roll off dumpster depends on the kind of job and service you need. Long-Term dumpster service is for continuing needs that continue longer than simply a day or two. This includes matters like day to day waste and recycling needs. Temporary service is simply what the name indicates; a one-time demand for job-specific waste removal.
Temporary roll-off dumpsters are delivered on a truck and are rolled off where they'll be used. These are typically larger containers that can handle all the waste that comes with that particular job. Long-Term dumpsters are generally smaller containers because they are emptied on a regular basis and so do not need to hold as much at one time.
If you request a permanent dumpster, some businesses need at least a one-year service agreement for that dumpster. Roll-off dumpsters only require a rental fee for the time that you just keep the dumpster on the job.
When you rent a dumpster in Elverta, you're dealing with professionals who use terms associated with the construction industry and dumpsters each day. Since you likely don't use these terms daily, here's a bit of the lingo to get you acclimated. This can actually allow you to cope with company workers who may get impatient if you don't realize what they are explaining about their products.
"Container" and "roll off" are both acceptable terms for the large metal box you need to rent. Professionals don't use the term "dumpster" as much as the other terms. Containers are often rented in cubic yard sizes, but you don't have to contain the "cubic" part. Simply say "yard" or "yarder." If, for example, you wish to rent a 30-yard dumpster, you may say, "I'm interested in a 30-yard roll off" or "I'd like to rent a 30-yarder." Use these terms, and you're going to sound like a pro when you call.
You can fill your dumpster as full as you like, provided that you do not load it higher compared to the sides of the container. Overfilling the dumpster could cause the waste or debris to slide off as the dumpster is loaded onto the truck or as the truck is driving. Overloaded or overweight dumpsters are not really safe, and businesses WOn't carry dangerous loads in order to protect drivers and passengers on the road.
In certain places, dumpster loads must be tarped for safety. If your load is too high, it WOn't have the ability to be tarped so you'll need to remove a number of the debris before it can be hauled away. This might lead to additional charges if it requires you to keep the dumpster for a longer amount of time. Remember to maintain your load no higher compared to the sides of the dumpster, and you'll be good.
When you want to rent a dumpster in Elverta to use at your home, it's a great idea to keep several guidelines in mind. First, ascertain the size dumpster that'll work best for your endeavor. Temporary dumpsters generally come in 10, 20, 30 and 40 yard sizes. Next, consider the positioning of the dumpster on your premises. Recommendations call for you to provide an area that's twice the width and height of the container. This will definitely ensure appropriate height and space clearance.
The price you are quoted for the container includes a one time delivery and pickup fee, together with normal fees for disposal, fuel and tax. You must also realize you could only fill the container to the top; no debris should be sticking out. As the homeowner, you need to also check to your local city or municipality to determine if a permit is expected to put the container on the street.
When you rent a roll-off dumpster, you'll be tempted to throw anything and everything indoors. Common items that people generally dispose of in a dumpster include solid waste material and most routine home and building waste, together with tree limbs and landscaping debris. They are able to also be utilized for business and commercial cleanouts, house renovations, getting cleared of junk when you're moving to a brand new home, bigger landscaping jobs and more.
A record of things you CAn't set in a roll-off dumpster comprises paints and solvents, automotive fluids, pesticides, chemicals, electronic equipment and batteries. Should you make an effort to contain these items, you will likely end up getting an additional fee. Other items that will definitely incur an additional fee include tires, mattresses and appliances. Additional heavy substances are also not allowed; items which are too heavy may exceed government transport regulations and be unsafe to haul.
Almost all roll of dumpsters have the same width (usually eight feet). That makes it feasible for firms to make use of the same trucks to transport a wide selection of dumpsters. When you see a dumpster's measurements, therefore, you can presume that they refer to depth and length. You may even see dumpster sizes listed by yards. This actually refers to square yards that measure the dumpster's volume.
In case you're coordinating a large commercial job, then you will probably need a 40-yard dumpster or larger. Big home renovations may demand a 30-yard dumpster, but most smaller home repairs just want 20-yard or even 10-yard dumpsters. Speak to an expert if you want more advice on selecting a dumpster size that matches your project.
Most firms allow it to be simple for you to book your dumpster appointment. Before you contact rental firms to schedule a drop off or pick up, however, you can take some steps that make the process even easier.
2. Give you and also the rental business plenty of time. It's better to phone ahead at least a week or two before you want the dumpster. If you attempt to schedule an appointment sooner than that, you may have a limited collection.
3. Keep in contact with the rental business. If anything changes in your program, contact the firm as soon as possible to permit them to know. This way you can correct the appointment as needed without restricting your options.
Cheapest Dumpster Rental in Elverta - Is It Worth It?
Clearly you need to spend as little cash as possible when renting a dumpster in Elverta. Sometimes, though, the most inexpensive dumpster rental in Elverta alternative is not worth it. In fact, it may end up costing you more in the long term.
Taking the cheapest option could mean that you simply get a dumpster that is too small for your project. Once you fill up the dumpster, you may have to pay for another to finish your job. It's usually more affordable to get a larger size and avoid the hassle.
The most inexpensive dumpster rental businesses in Elverta might not include matters like drop off and pick up fees. Ensure your quotes include all additional fees. That way, you can compare costs precisely to get the very best price. Customer care is another important consideration. Some companies keep costs low by cutting corners on service. The very last thing you would like would be to waste time awaiting a truck to arrive by means of your dumpster.
