A brief use of a Web-based telemedicine service has a significant positive effect on patients' perceptions of the service, according to a survey conducted by a team of Dutch experts.
The researchers, from the University of Twente, concluded that healthcare providers should consider offering patients a risk-free way to explore and experiment telemedicine services. They said that by doing so telemedicine companies can increase the development of accurate perceptions and user needs.
The survey focused on investigating whether patients' perceptions of Web-based telemedicine services changed after brief use. The research included 30 patients, who were divided into a control group and an experimental group. The results indicated that patients within the experimental group became significantly more positive about the usefulness and ease-of-use after a very short period of use.
The report indicates that despite the great potential of telemedicine user acceptance proves one important barrier to implementation in mainstream healthcare.
"These results show the significant positive effect of brief use of a telemedicine service on patients' perceptions of this service," The authors concluded. "Therefore, it is important to offer patients the opportunity to experiment with the service to foster the development of accurate beliefs, which will consequently result in more adequate user needs possibly benefiting patient acceptance."

What I have done is using the DJ-X11 Clone Utility v2.03, I entered one frequency into the program, then exported it to a CSV file. I then opened the CSV file in Excel 2010, entered in the remaining frequencies, SJA, Perth Transit, FESA, Garden Island Navy Frequencies and a couple of other hundred. Saved this file via Excel as a CSV file and then imported it back into the DJ-X11 Clone Utility program. When I saved this under the native file format, it deleted all entries after channel 21, even with out saving the file and trying to load it into the DJ-X11, it deleted all entries after channel 21.


Volume 3: Red Reunion and much more!
Acheron Island is a world lost to time, home to prehistoric creatures from earth's savage past. The island's occupants range from ferocious, man eating dinosaur and savage Ape Man tribes to strange ruins from a lost civilization. It is also home to sir Edwin Crowe, son of the Victorian explorer who discovered Acheron Island, renowded big game hunter, scarred Great War veteran, and last of the world's Gentleman Adventurers.
Clayton Cane has lived with violence for all of his existence. With a scarred face giving him the feared nickname El Mosaico, Cane has crossed the country as a bounty hunter and left trails of dead behind him.
layton Cane was made - not born - in the Civil War. A Confederate plantation owner-turned-madman stitched pieces from a dozen different body parts together and then used Voodoo magic, depraved science and arcane power to bring the patchwork soldier to life - and as Union river cruisers shelled the plantation, the patchwork man escaped and ran into the swamp.
He grew up on the streets of Brooklyn, dodging from mobster-ruled neighborhoods to reform school before the army snapped him up and sent him to Europe to fight Hitler. That's where he met Weatherby Stein, the scion to one of the greatest occult families of Europe. Weatherby and his parents were being held prisoner by the Nazis, forced to use their supernatural knowledge to aid the Third Reich's war effort.
A wealthy Hawaiian hotelier is chewed to death by sharks - in his penthouse office. A traveling salesman goes missing - in a shady New England town full of monstrous fishmen. A new casino gets supernaturally good luck in Vegas - thanks to ancient Egyptian magic.
For Weatherby Stein and Morton Candle – private detectives specializing in the paranormal – life normally isn't easy.
It's well worth your time to seek out and luxuriate in this exuberant slice of monster mayhem. Overall a great, fun romp chock full of derring-do and more prehistoric action than you can shake a stick at.
Dinosaur Jazz has it all: adventure, humor, romance, mystery, and dinosaurs. Did I mention there are dinosaurs? The setting and characters are so wonderfully crafted, I could easily picture Acheron Island and felt like I really knew Sir Edwin and company. Each character has a distinct personality (and flaws!) and feel real, as though they could be someone you know – given, of course, you know dinosaur-hunting gentleman adventurers and flappers. But who doesn't?
If you like Pulp Adventure then this is a must read. It had just about everything you'd expect in a pulp adventure story and yet original in its own right. Looking forward to reading more books like this!

First, the world is changing. It's not a good thing or a bad thing. But your life is going to change with it.
It is easy to glorify travel and adventure, but it's not really fair to those experiences to end it at just that. In life and in travel, the times that challenged you are the same experiences that helped you grow – the ones that helped you move on into your next stage with as much grace as possible.
It's okay if you don't know what you're doing with yourself and your life, it's okay if you've messed up in your past because your past doesn't define you and neither do your mistakes. You are so much more than the decisions you used to make.

About the Nashik
The Wine Capital of India, Nasik (also pronounced as Nashik), is a popular tourist destination and pilgrimage in Maharashtra. The City not only has a lot of temples but is also famous for the Sula Vineyards. According to the Ramayana, the banks of the Godavari river in Nashik is where Laxman cut Shoorpanakha's nose after she misbehaved with him and Lord Rama. It is also how Nashik got its name. Nasik also has the Trimbakeshwar temple which sees devotees from all over the country travelling to offer their prayers. It is believed that this is one of the 12 Jyotirlinga temples of Lord Shiva. The Trimbakeshwar temple lies between three hills, namely Nilgiri, Brahmagiri and Kalahari. The Kumbh Mela of Nashik also happens in this temple and has a lot of devotees attending the festival.
The Anjaneri Hills, which is believed to be the birthplace of Lord Hanuman, is another major tourist attraction here. If you love yourself a nice trek, make sure you climb the hill instead of taking another mode of transportation. Not only is the view breathtakingly beautiful but you'll find peace as you reach the temple. The cave on top of the hill is where Goddess Anjana Devi gave birth to Lord Hanuman, as per beliefs. The hills are named after her.
While you are visiting the Trimbakeshwar temple, make sure you also visit the Dugarwadi Waterfall. It's like paradise for all nature lovers, and you'll only have to trek for 1 or 2 km amidst the forest to get to the waterfall. Nashik has become the most visited and a favourite tourist spot, thanks to the Sula Vineyards. You can go on a wine tasting spree or even learn more about how wine is made here, the right way to consume wine and a lot more. You can book hotel rooms near the Sula Vineyards or book a stay within the vineyard itself.
Nashik is also a popular destination for people to take a break from their urban lifestyle. You'll find a lot of homestays and farmhouses on rent in the City for a fun, relaxing weekend. If you want to club this with a tour of the Vineyards, you can book something closer to the Vineyards. You'll find everything in your budget and will have a good time. Nashik also has a Ramkund, a pond where Lord Rama had performed the final rites of his father, King Dashrath. A lot of people also disperse the ashes of their deceased loved ones, so they attain salvation. You can take a dip in the holy water to either wash away your sins or experience it.
Best Time to Visit Nashik
Winter is the perfect season for you to visit Nashik. It's pleasant and suitable for sightseeing. The winters start from October and last till March. The City experiences monsoon from June to September. While the weather is quite pleasant during monsoon but it's not the best time to travel. You can opt for a monsoon trek to one of the hills around the City, but you will have to be cautious since hilly areas can get a little slippery. April through May are the hottest months in the City. You might want to avoid travelling during this time. The streets will be dry, and it is favourable to plan any trip to Nashik during winter.

Do stop at the Sula Vineyards, too, before you leave from Nashik. It's a famous vineyard, and you will have a great time here. You'll find accommodation quite easily. You can also take some wine back home or grab a souvenir on the way. Panchavati is where Lord Ram, Goddess Sita and Lakshman stayed during their exile. You'll find a lot of places in Nashik where vital incidents from the Ramayana have taken place. Vaitarna River is a popular area to try out water sports.

Visiting the Sula Vineyards for wine tasting is a favourite activity in the area. You also get to play your part in making more wine and fair warning: you might have to get your hands dirty to experience some wine-making. Go white water rafting at the Vaitarna river to satiate the water baby in you. You will not regret it one bit. You might also want to visit the different waterfalls that Nashik has to offer.
Plan a trek to Dudhsagar falls or the Vihigaon waterfalls, whichever suits you the best. You can also give traditional Maharashtrian food a try while you are in Nashik. You must try out the Missal Pav here, and a couple of other dishes like the Thalipeeth, sabudana vada, vada pavs and the list goes on. You will not regret giving these food items a try. Nashik is a trendy destination in Maharashtra for tourists. You can either hire a guide for yourself or hire a vehicle to get around the City. Either way, it is not very difficult to commute within the City and to the City from other cities.
You also get to live a part of the Ramayana while you are here since a lot of essential chapters from one of the most famous mythological stories have happened here in this City. You can plan a day of temple hopping and embrace your spiritual side. You can sit and meditate for a while at one of the waterfalls or hills that you plan to visit. It will be a scenic and serene environment for you to introspect and will leave you with a smile on your face.
Food and Restaurants in Nashik
Nashik is famous for the plethora of Maharashtrian food that it has to offer. Thalipeeth, Maharashtrian thali, misal pav, sabudana vada, vada pav, are some of the favourite dishes that you must try when you are here. While you might easily get these in Mumbai and other parts of Maharashtra, too, Nashik adds its charm to the food, and you'll relish every bite of it. Heramb is a favourite restaurant when it comes to authentic Maharashtrian food. Have the thalipeeth or modaks at this restaurant whenever you visit it.
Have misal pav at Ambika Misal. You can either make your misal spicier or request for a less spicy misal while you are here. Misal is a prevalent dish, and you can't leave the City without trying one out here. Jogger's Pavilion, Arabian Express are a few places that serve non-vegetarian food and have quite the reputation of serving delicious food.
How to reach Nashik (Transportation)
Chatrapati Shivaji International Airport Mumbai is the nearest airport to Nashik. The flight connectivity from Mumbai is pretty good through all domestic routes and international routes. After landing in Mumbai, you'll have to take a taxi or hire a car or take the t rain to Nashik. You'll get pretty good flight deals online and if you're lucky, cheap flight tickets, too. Book flight tickets from any metropolitan or small city to Mumbai, the frequency is quite good. Since there are no direct flights to Nashik, especially international ones, Mumbai is the best pitstop. The Indian Armed Forces is currently using the Nashik airport for tests and trials. It is also used as a Customs airport.
Nashik has its railway station and the frequency of trains that run to and from Mumbai are quite high. Pick a favourable time and your budget and book a train. You'll also get buses and rickshaws outside Nashik station that will drop you to your hotel rooms.
Plan a road trip from Mumbai, Pune, Shirdi or Aurangabad to Nashik, and it might not be that bad an idea. If you are not taking out your vehicle, you can hire one or take a bus that starts from these cities. The frequency is quite good, and the experience won't be too gruelling if you are travelling by road. However, if you want extra comfort, we would suggest hiring a car or taking the train. You'll get your personal space while travelling, too.

As Chennai rests comfortably on the coastal parts of Tamil Nadu, the city has some pristine beaches to check out. Touted to be the second-largest urban beach in the entire world, the Marina Beach is the jewel of Chennai with a shoreline of 12 km long. The sandy shores of the beach teamed with the exquisite Colonial buildings on the street-side make for quite a spectacle.
While Marina Beach is more on the populous side, to enjoy the serenity of a quieter beach, you can visit Edward Elliot's beach and Breezy Beach, to name a few. These beaches are quaint and attract individuals who need to step away from the city's bustle. The peaceful ambience of these beaches has turned into quite the tourist attractions in Chennai.
The temples in Chennai are centuries old and found aplenty. Every corner of the street has at least one temple. These temples have fascinating stories and exquisite architecture. The temples are known to have a specific structure in South India with detailed gopurams, enormous water tanks in the back of the temple, domestic animals such as cows and dogs, hawkers selling toys and snacks, quaint ponds and shrines of several deities. Some of the famous temples in the city that you can visit are the Kapaleeswarar Temple, the Parthasarathy Temple, Sri Ramakrishna Math-Universal Temple, Kumaran Kundram and Karaneeswarar temple.
The city is also home to a bunch of churches and mosques. In fact, the Basilica of the National Shrine of St. Thomas can be found in Chennai. The shrine is believed to be built over the tomb of St Thomas the Apostle, who had visited India in 52 AD. After his death, the saint's body is said to have been buried under the same spot where the Basilica now stands. Other notable churches and mosques include St. Thomas Mount, St. Mary's Church, Big Mosque (Wallajah Mosque) and more.
Chennai's rich culture is reflected not just from the slew of temples and coastal delights but also the monuments and museums in the city. Since the city was also under the direct influence of the British East India Company, much of the architecture, culture and infrastructure have an English vibe. Visit the National Government Museum to learn more about the city's history. You can further go on an artistic voyage by visiting the National Art Gallery, which is more than 100 years old.
Ecological parks
Another major highlight of the city is the number of ecological parks and gardens that can be explored. The city runs a crocodile preservation park as well as a snake park called the Guindy Snake Park. Sprawled across 280 hectares of land is the Guindy National Park which is known to be the smallest national park in India. While the national park is inhabited by very few flora and fauna, it does hold a dedicated space to preserve reptiles and other amphibian species. Besides these two, one can opt to visit the Arinjar Anna Zoological Park, also known as Vandalur Zoo, which is located in the outskirts of the city.
Chennai is heavily invested not just in the automobiles but also the literary, arts and culture fields. To them, dance and music play a significant role in their daily lives. In fact, the city also observes a bunch of festivals such as Madras Music Season, Madras Day, The Hindu Lit for Life and Chennai Book Fair to commemorate some of their indulgences. These events are a rage and definitely worth attending. You can visit some of the music and dance functions held by the Nungambakkam Cultural Academy Trust, The Music Academy in TTK Road, Sri Thyaga Brahma Gana Sabha and Indian Institute of Music and Arts to name a few.
Another fun activity to take up would be to watch a movie of a South star at one of the single-screen or even a multiplex. The fervour of fandom during the release of their favourite celebrity's movie release is euphoric and definitely worth experiencing. As for bibliography enthusiasts, you can visit the Theosophical Society to explore the library set by Anne Besant. There are various malls with high-end fashion brands that you could check out. Or you can always go to Pondy Bazaar in T Nagar to shop silk ensembles and golden accessories.
Food and Restaurants in Chennai
T Nagar and Anna Nagar in Chennai are known market places with many food and restaurant options too. In fact, some of the best joints in the city can be found here. One of the most popular restaurants, Saravana Bhavan, is a must-visit to get the best of South Indian vegetarian food. Sri Anandam Hotel, Geetha Cafe in Pondy Bazaar, Rathna Cafe in Triplicane and Karpagambal Mess in Mylapore are some of the best restaurants that will you give quite the experience of the delicious South Indian cuisine. Dakshin and Southern Spice also offer tasty food.
However, if you do wish to explore a little more, Mansuk's shop in T Nagar is known to emulate Mumbai-chaat and Gujarati Thali. For sweets and desserts, you must let your tastebuds acquaint with Mysore Paks, Tarti Paal and other such sweets, which you will find at Sri Krishna Sweets and Aavin corners. DOJO Kulfis is also a famous hub for traditional ice creams such as kulfi, faloodas and smoothies.
How to reach Chennai
After Delhi airport and Mumbai airport, the Chennai airport is the third most active airport in India for domestic as well as international departures and arrivals. The airport is divided into two terminals, the Anna Terminal reserved for international flights and the Kamraj Terminal for domestic flights. Located in the same long stretched airport, the flight connectivity to and from Chennai is excellent.
Not just domestic but even international cities are well-connected with Chennai. Major international flight routes from Chennai to cities such as London, Frankfurt, Singapore, Malaysia, the Middle East, New York, Hong Kong, etc. can be reached as flights are available from Chennai Airport. Since Chennai is one of the busiest cities in India, the flight demands are also quite high. Make your flight bookings to Chennai months in advance to avoid high ticket costs.
Another perk of the Chennai airport is how it is well-connected with the city too. While it is located in the outskirts, the airport has a Metro which directly connects with the main city, making travelling far more convenient.
There are two central stations which connect Chennai to other major cities in the country. Chennai Central and Chennai Egmore are the two central stations with regular trains entering and exiting the city from different parts of India. While Chennai Central is known to connect the city to other cities, Chennai Egmore has intercity trains that run regularly. Interestingly, both the stations are well-connected with the Chennai airport.
Chennai Central sees trains coming in from cities such as Mumbai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Kolkata, Madurai, Ahmedabad and Coimbatore daily. Since the rail connectivity is so good, it is often considered by travellers. You must book your rail tickets well in advance as the demand is always high to travel to Chennai.
The city's bus station is touted to be one of the largest in Asia. Chennai Mofussil Bus Terminus (CMBT) is a state-owned property and provides transport services to a plethora of destinations in the South of India. Located in the main city, there are several direct buses to the airport as well as the Egmore station. Considered to be a cheap and affordable means of travelling, you can visit Chennai as long as your location is in the neighbouring states. The travel time to Pondicherry, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Tirupati, Trivandrum, etc. is considerably low.

Q: How do I set an imagebutton's alpha back to normal if an int is higher than -1? I'm trying to make an Imagebutton greyed out, if an int equals -1. And if int is higher than -1 the Imagebutton should be set to normal. I used imgbtn.setImageAlpha(0x3F); to set my img button to grey. The index is changed by two buttons: one goes +1 (-1,0,1) and the other goes previous. So if I click on next -1 is then 0 and if I click the previous button 0 becomes -1.
the code:
 if (index == -1){
                imagebtn.setImageAlpha(0x3F);
            }

            if (index > -1){
                imagebtn.setImageAlpha(0xFF);
            }

Edit: When using this code: If index equals -1 it turns gray, but when index is higher than -1 (0 or 1,2,3...) the imagebutton is still greyed out.
What did I do wrong ?

A: According to the docs

setImageAlpha takes a value between 0(transparent) and 255(opaque). Try to set 255 as imageAlpha when index > -1 and around 100 when index == -1

if (index == -1){
    imagebtn.setImageAlpha(100); // change as you need
}

if (index > -1){
    imagebtn.setImageAlpha(255);
}

A: Just change your sembols like this :
 if (index <= -1){
            imagebtn.setImageAlpha(0xFF);

        }

You are using wrong conditions. -1 is the biggest number of negative. So that; Your condition turns "false". But if you do like my answer. Your condition turns "true". And your code will works.

Vyndaqel (tafamidis) significantly delays the progression of familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP) and improves the quality of life of FAP patients, a real-world study shows.
These results support data from clinical trials showing that Vyndaqel is an effective treatment for FAP.
The study, "Positive Effectiveness of Tafamidis in Delaying Disease Progression in Transthyretin Familial Amyloid Polyneuropathy up to 2 Years: An Analysis from the Transthyretin Amyloidosis Outcomes Survey (THAOS)," was published in the journal Neurology and Therapy.
FAP is a rare disorder caused by mutations in the TTR gene — a gene that provides instructions to produce a protein called transthyretin. TTR mutations lead to an unstable protein structure, and to the formation and accumulation of toxic amyloid aggregates in peripheral nerves and organs.
Among the more than 100 different TTR gene mutations associated with FAP, Val30Met is the most common. Patients with non-Val30Met mutations have been recognized as having poorer outcomes.
Vyndaqel, developed by Pfizer, is an approved therapy for FAP in the European Union and in several countries in Latin America and Asia. Vyndaqel is not currently approved in the U.S., but it is being evaluated as a treatment for TTR-associated heart disease, called familial amyloid cardiomyopathy (FAC).
Vyndaqel prevents the formation of the toxic amyloid aggregates by stabilizing the TTR protein.
Previous clinical trials have shown that Vyndaqel is a safe and effective treatment for FAP patients with the Val30Met mutation or with other mutations. However, little is known about Vyndaqel's real-world effectiveness.
To evaluate the effectiveness of Vyndaqel for the treatment of FAP in a real-world setting, researchers conducted an observational study (NCT00628745) that analyzed data from the Transthyretin Amyloidosis Outcomes Survey (THAOS) registry — the largest international registry collecting data of patients with FAP and other TTR-associated diseases.
The study included data from 274 patients treated with Vyndaqel and 255 untreated patients in a control group. The data from each treated individual was compared with data from up to four untreated patients, who had the same type of mutation, country of birth, and probability of receiving treatment.
Patients' nerve cell damage was assessed through the Neuropathy Impairment Score in the Lower Limbs (NIS-LL), and quality of life was measured based on the Norfolk Quality of Life scale.
Most patients treated with Vyndaqel had the Val30Met mutation (92.5%), were from Portugal (80.2%), and were relatively young, with a mean age of 40.4 years. Median follow-up time was 23.6 months for treated subjects and 21.4 months for untreated subjects.
Vyndaqel treatment significantly delayed nerve cell disease progression and deterioration in quality of life compared with untreated patients. No effects on functional impairment or nutritional status were observed.
Although the survival analysis of matched patients was not able to produce estimates on the risk of death — as no treated patient died — a secondary analysis comparing all patients (unmatched) showed that untreated individuals had a greater risk of death than treated patients.
"These findings confirm previous results and provide evidence for the effectiveness of tafamidis outside conventional clinical trials," the researchers wrote.
The team noted that due to the characteristics of the studied population, these findings may not be generalized to patients with non-Val30Met mutations or late-onset Val30Met FAP. Further studies are needed to understand Vyndaqel's effects in those patients in a real-world setting.

Omalizumab, approved for the treatment of chronic severe persistent asthma, is a treatment option in patients who fail to achieve optimal quality of life (QoL) due to severe asthma symptoms and when uncontrolled asthma is a contraindication to of subcutaneous specific immunotherapy (SCIT) [1]. As a trigger for anaphylaxis, the frequency of SCIT is high. It is known that omalizumab facilitates desensitization in high-risk allergic patients and improves the course of the disease, which has been previously demonstrated in patients with allergic rhinitis, insect venom, food allergy, and asthma [2–4].
Herein, we present a case diagnosed as severe allergic asthma and anaphylaxis during SCIT in a patient in whom SCIT was successfully continued after the initiation of the omalizumab therapy.
Jacob is a 11-year-old boy with a history of asthma and allergic rhinitis since he was 6. The child was presented to his primary care provider's office with persistent asthma that was limiting his activities. His asthma symptoms were often aggravated by upper respiratory infections and asthma exacerbations; he had had to attend the emergency department about 2 times a year. He had multiple allergies; the skin tests were positive for dust mite, grass mix, multiple trees, and molds.
He was referred to our clinic in October 2011. Under our care the patient received long-term anti-asthma therapy with moderate-to high-dose inhaled corticosteroids (ICS), a long-acting b2-agonist and a leukotriene receptor antagonist. The number of asthma exacerbations and hospitalizations was significantly reduced in our patient and he did not require rescue medications or oral corticosteroids. In vitro secretory IgE levels (ELISA the device DYNEX; DSX System) for Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus and D.s farinae were found to be 80.2 kU/l (class 5) and 72.2 kU/l (class 5), respectively; grass mix (Phleum pretense 28.6 kU/l (class 4), Dactylis glomerata 15.8 kU/l (class 3); multiple trees (Birch and Alder > 100 kU/l (class 6), Hazel 64.6 kU/l (class 5), Alternaria 50.0 kU/l (class 5). Patient's asthma was well controlled and he had qualified for subcutaneous specific immunotherapy with mite extract (Derp1 50% and Derp2 50%). During the initial phase of immunotherapy he experienced anaphylaxis. The child developed severe broncho-obstruction, swelling and numbness of the tongue, hot flashes, dizziness, blood pressure level decreased up to 80/40 mm Hg. The attack required treatment with epinephrine, antihistamines and corticosteroids. Subcutaneous specific immunotherapy was discontinued. After this event, Jacob was regularly taking inhaled fluticasone/salmeterol 250/50 mg twice a day and oral montelukast 5 mg every day. Occasionally he required salbutamol rescue approximately twice weekly and short-course oral corticosteroid therapy. Clinical findings revealed a decreased lung function with forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) level at 85% of the predicted level before bronchodilation; after bronchodilation, the FEV1 was 98% of the predicted level. Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) value was 80 ppb, other spirometric parameters: Rint was 200%, sRaw 250%. Pulmonary function testing was performed using a Master Screen unit (Erich Jaeger GmbH-Hochberg, Germany). Flow-volume curves were performed according to the American Thoracic Society standards. The highest of 3 successful measurements was recorded. The results were expressed as percentages of the predicted values.
The NO measurements were performed according to the European Respiratory Society/American Thoracic Society (ERS/ATS) recommendations, with a chemiluminescence analyzer (model 280i nitric oxide analyzer; Sievers, Boulder, CO, USA) and defined in parts per billion.
Because of uncontrolled asthma, though the inhaled steroids and beta agonists, the IgE level of 254 kU/l (Elecsys IgE CalSet Sandwich Immunoassay, Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany) were taken into consideration, omalizumab 300 mg once every 4 weeks was initiated (July 2012; in March 2013 he was qualified for the Severe IgE-dependent Asthma Therapeutic Program).
Four months later he had achieved better asthma control (no further need for rescue bronchodilator use) and a significant improvement of FEV1 up to 100% of the predicted value. After 16 weeks of treatment with omalizumab, the Asthma Control Questionnaire score had fallen from 2 to 0 points, and the asthma-related quality of life questionnaire (AQLQ) revealed a score of 6.7. Before starting the anti-IgE therapy, he had a severely impaired quality of life, with an AQLQ of 4 points (3.7 points improvement). Jacob is taking inhaled fluticasone (Flixotide Dysk) 100 mg twice a day and oral montelukast 5 mg every day. More importantly, during therapy he was able to reduce his use of ICS and did not require any oral corticosteroids. Six months after omalizumab introduction, he was again qualified for subcutaneous specific immunotherapy with mite extract. Currently, the maintenance dose has been reached and SCIT is continued without any side effects.
The described case shows that the administration of omalizumab prior to SCIT reduces the risk of SCIT-related systemic reactions and enables more patients to achieve the target SCIT maintenance dose. As a trigger for anaphylaxis, the frequency of SCIT is high [5]. Omalizumab is a humanized anti-IgE antibody, which prevents allergic cascade by blocking binding of free IgE in circulation to the Fc epsilon Receptor 1 [6]. There are several case reports, which have demonstrated that omalizumab has been successfully used in the treatment of idiopathic anaphylaxis. In 2009, Warrier and Casale presented a 12-year-old boy with a history of uncontrolled allergic asthma, allergic rhinitis, multiple food allergies and recurrent episodes of idiopathic anaphylaxis who responded very well to 375 mg of omalizumab every 2 weeks [7].
Subcutaneous specific immunotherapy should be considered in all children with IgE-dependent asthma and it should be initiated in patients with controlled asthma. However, if the immunotherapy cannot be introduced due to poor asthma control, despite multi-drug therapy or if the maintenance dose cannot be reached, the only available option is pretreatment with omalizumab. It has been recently shown that a combination of omalizumab with specific immunotherapy for treatment of patients with allergic rhinitis and asthma is safe and reduced the symptom load during the first pollen season, however showed no prolonged effect during treatment with SCIT only [8, 9]. The treatment with omalizumab was clinically effective in our patient: the frequency of exacerbations and the number of hospitalizations were reduced, and there was a significant decrease in steroid use. This effect of omalizumab enabled the initiation of SCIT in our child with severe asthma. However, this case does not make it possible to draw a conclusion that omalizumab only treats asthma and afterwards we can have hyposensitized patients [10]. Omalizumab in the described case either improves asthma control or weakens SCIT serious side effects.
The clinical implication of the above case report is that children with severe allergic asthma who are pre-treated with omalizumab might also benefit in the future from SCIT as a causal treatment option. It has also shown that a combination of anti-IgE plus SCIT may be beneficial for the treatment of allergic diseases by improving efficacy and limiting side effects of SCIT. Large comprehensive clinical trials are needed to elucidate this matter.

A CONTEMPORARY ART SPACE DEVOTED TO THE MOVING IMAGE
Harm van den Dorpel
Jan 23 - March 7, 2015
Harm van den Dorpel was born in Zaandam, the Netherlands, in 1981. He studied Interactive Design at Gerrit Rietveld Academy and Artificial Intelligence at Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam, where he later taught New Media from 2008-2012. And his work has been the subject of numerous solo shows at institutions such as the Abron Art Center in New York; the New Museum (NY); American Medium (NY); and The Moving Image fair in Istanbul. What's more, he's been included in a number of important exhibitions of late including: Private Settings at the Museum of Modern Art, Warsaw (2014); Image Employment at MoMA PS1 (2013); Free (2010) at the New Museum of Contemporary Art, New York; Collect the Wwworld at Link Art Centre, Brescia, Italy; and New Wave at the Internet Pavilion within the Venice Biennale, 2009.
My Bloody Valentine has a 2.53' song called Loomer on their Loveless album. Webster's defines it as either be someone 'who weaves" using a mechanical device, or loom; or "a particularly momentous occurrence," as in: "to assume form as an impending event."
For Loomer, his first solo show in Los Angeles, the artist will be presenting a number of photo-based collages, Perspex sculptures, heat-shrink-wrap objects, videos and websites, many of which span the past five years.
Works in the exhibition:
The videos/websites (in consecutive order):
Video from screen capture of software
19m 50s Dimensions variable, 16:9 aspect, Stereo sound (optional)
5 + 1AP (website with domain name
http://dubaibiennale.com
is the AP)
Considered an "early work," Showreel began with the domain, dubaibiennale, where the artist developed a screen capture system that would "auto post" random images to a blog that he created. After running for several months he ended up with 5,000 images, which he later condensed and orchestrated into a single work. Nevertheless, he discovered various associations that occurred naturally as he combing through the material (such as a dinosaur linking to a crab, linking to a gang-member's hand-sign, etc.) The artist also designed the soundtrack.
5m 5s, Dimensions variable, stereo sound (optional)
http://stra.tegi.es/
Commissioned by the Contemporary Art Museum in Rome for a show that dealt with collage. Strategies consists of virtually hundreds of collages that the artist made for the show. Meanwhile, as he was making the collages (which turn up again repeatedly in his photo-based collages, he was also reading ten different books on Kindle (including Hacker manifestos, art manifestos and linguistic theory—including works by Derrida). Kindle allowed him to both, highlight and cut-and-past, quotes as he read through each book, and those in turn surfaced in Strategies. The artist designed the sound track as well.
The Four Master Tropes
Annotated YouTube video
4m 52s, dimensions variable, 16:9 aspect, stereo sound (optional)
Unique (http://thef.ourm.aste.rtrop.es)
The Four Master Tropes is a live-streaming website that hangs on a wall much like a painting, yet receives its feed in real time from YouTube. The approach and logic of the work is very similar to Strategies, however it uses two primary sources for its imagery: jpegs culled from aeviantArt.com and photos from his studio. The text meanwhile, is pulled from YouTube annotations, which the artist can alter or augment at will. Thus the work always remains a work in process and offers a direct link between the artist and the collector. The soundtrack was composed of free, generic musical sources.
loop (variable duration), dimensions variable, 16:9 aspect, stereo sound (optional)
Unique (http://deeptis.su/e)
A much newer work, Deep Tissue is also more personal than previous efforts. Like Four Master Tropes it's a live-feed from a website and in many ways it was designed to "answer" his most well-known site, "Disassociations," which consists of images of his own work. Disassociations used an algorithm to "train' the website based on viewer interaction and clicks. But Deep Tissue features many of the same imagery from that site but features text that was written by the artist ahimself. Again, the artist composed the soundtrack.
Didactic Poetry
loop (variable duration), dimensions variable, 16:9 aspect, silent
Unique (http://didacticpoetry.com)
In 2014 the artist received what he describes as a "beautiful email" from someone who seemed to enjoy his work. Yet rather than writing him back, the artist created instead a website in response. The website, which runs as a live feed, features a snippet of the original email plus small annotations/remarks by the artist.
Sculpture (in consecutive order)
Cocoon (empty submitter)
Shrink foil, lamp
Cocoon (full packaging)
Shrink foil bubble wrap
Untitled Assemblage (shell)
UV Print on PETG, hand cut with jigsaw, screws and bolts
approx. 100 x 100 x 100cm
Thank Bag You
Hand cut paper bag
Collages (in consecutive order, clockwise)
At the center of van den Dorpel's practice is the internet, both as source material and as focus. While he often produces photo-collages, sculptures and objects they invariably contain images and text that were originally uploaded to any one of the numerous websites designed by van den Dorpel. (The websites themselves are technically his primary artform). Furthermore, the objects themselves ultimately become photographs which in turn are uploaded again before reappearing in new object-based works later on. So all images follow a circuitous, Escher-like path that perhaps, never ends. But as the artist says, "I have no connection to the physical work. None. I see all the physical work as just accidental 'debris'"

In the artist's words:
I am lying down in my bed, attempting to write texts about my upcoming solo exhibitions. The texts serve multiple purposes, of which the most important two are: a: provoke people to come see the show, write about it, buy the work, etc. and, b: help people understand what the exhibition is 'about'.
Although I am writing the text myself, it is common to pretend to write it in the third person: 'the artist', 'Van den Dorpel', 'he', so it looks like I'm not exalting myself too much but appear humble, and to suggest that somebody else is writing it. An outsider perspective gives more authority, and protects the artist from explaining his own work - defence is so tempting.
I graduated art school in 2006, yet still hesitate to talk with people about what I do. At obligatory gatherings I rather tell that I'm a computer programmer, which is more tangible. Not that my work is not about something - I think it is about many things - but that what it is about, seems to run ahead of myself, and I will never quite catch up with it. (I suspect it is always about the same thing).
Often people approach explanations of my work in terms of 'found imagery', which is 'culled' from the internet. This emphasizes the 'as-found nature' of my source material. Because these images are from the internet, and I make an object in space using them, I'm labeled 'post internet', but this is not sustainable. Using existing images from the internet is not saying much about the work at all. It's 2015. Appropriation is a default. It is a meaningless gesture in itself.
Fragments of images, texts, thoughts, sequences I combine, with a faint belief, that the result could somehow be something new, or at least new enough to me. Or at least new enough to you. And every time, when I manage to give a conceptual explanation of the result of this enduring association-mining, I must divert, or it dies.
Making art compensates a melancholic desire. There is this romantic notion that every object of desire is unattainable, because once acquired, once understood, it disappears by morphing into the banal. Although having access to financial means greatly reduces worries, it makes me sad that I have become a professional now. It sort of spoils it. I should not have married my mistress.
Absolute potential: performance artists are not theatre actors, and sound artists are not musicians. What is to become of me if not a computer programmer anymore?

[influencer interview]: Tajia Reed Embraces Transparency & Beauty on Tik Tok
Nancy Trent, Trent & Company, Inc.
Tik Tok influencer Tajia Reed is known for her honest and transparent voice in the beauty industry.
Tik Tok influencer Tajia Reed (391K followers, 7.6 million likes, as of this writing) is known for her honest and transparent voice in the beauty industry, as well as continued conversations about social change, racial injustice and inclusivity. Her Tik Tok content is a mixed bag of makeup tutorials, acting, singing and the occasional take on various hot topics. (She hopes to eventually transition into modeling and acting.)
Reed says she finds it imperative to engage with her Tik Tok fans by being her true and unapologetic self. Her goal is to keep people entertained and informed.
Here, Reed shares her thoughts on creating viral content by following trends and searching for information on other social media platforms. She also sheds light on what she looks for in a collaboration with brands.
How would you describe your Tik Tok content?
[TR]: It's a little of everything. I didn't want to pigeonhole myself into one niche or type of content, so I do makeup, acting and singing and the occasional rant about a myriad of things. I used to rant more earlier on in my career, but it's tapered off mostly, but I'm starting to get back into it.
What is the mission of your Tik Tok content?
[TR]: I want people to be entertained and informed; it's a video by video basis really. You're not going to get much education from a transition style video, but I am a very transparent person and I like to be up front and honest about all things so when I am talking, I'm curating a safe space for people who look like me.
What drew you to Tik Tok to begin with?
[TR]: I honestly thought it was stupid and avoided it like the plague at first. I got on when I realized it was really making traction and [I] wanted to see what the hype was about. Then I fell down a watching hole for two weeks straight and got hooked. Worst decision of my life, honestly.
What do you enjoy posting about the most?
[TR]: I enjoy getting to express my creativity. Feeling like I am the best at what I am currently doing. I put a lot of pride in my content, even if the algorithm refuses to show my content anymore.
How often do you post?
[TR]: A few times a day, a few days a week, depending on my schedule and what I have going on in my personal life or if I have a collaboration with a brand.
Where do you get your information from?
[TR]: Social media.
What's involved in creating viral content?
[TR]: Following trends. It's actually incredibly tedious to have to watch anywhere from 50-200 videos a day. The algorithm will curate videos it thinks you'll like based on what you've already liked in the past. So, I'm trying to view outside of the bubble curated for me, which involves looking outside of Tik Tok. Instagram and Twitter are great places to go to feel out trends and what's going on currently in pop culture; YouTube, as well. It's kind of like doing a research project. Put all the info you gathered together and then just hope it takes hold once you post.
[TR]: Music, movies, TV and art. I also love watching people enjoy things without caring about being judged; it's about individuality.
How do your fans respond to sponsored posts vs regular posts?
[TR]: I'm fairly certain my fans would burn social media to the ground if I asked them to. I have a very lovely and dedicated support base. When they actually see my work (again, thanks algorithm), they're quick to share my work, regardless of whether it's sponsored or not. My regular posts are pushed more, but the love is the same.
How do you decide which brands to collaborate with?
[TR]: Brands who will let me be who I am and express myself the way I want to. And brands that offer a living wage in terms of rates. The quickest way to not get a response from me is to offer me a low commission rate or product in exchange for a video I'll no doubt have spent the better part of 24 hours shooting, editing, revising and posting.
What are some of your long-term goals as an influencer?
[TR]: I am happy currently. I can always use more collaborations. I'd love to work with Fenty (both the makeup and the lingerie lines), and I'd love to transition into modeling. I did it years ago, but it took a back seat when I needed to get my life together financially. Now that that is taken care of, I want to do things that push me out of my comfort zone. And as always, my end goal is to be an actress. I started this as an actress looking for a way in and found it through makeup. I'd like to steer back toward that path.
What can your fans look forward to this year?
[TR]: I'm on Cameo now, so that's fun. I'm going to try my hardest to get into YouTube this year. I have horrible organization skills. I should really get a manager or agent or assistant.
What advice do you have for aspiring influencers and entrepreneurs?
[TR]: Remember, you have a life outside of this. It's easy to get swept into the glamor of things. And a lifestyle change is nice, if this road affords you that. But remember that this is the internet. It's not as serious as you think it is and for every 100 people who recognize you, there's 10,000 who don't. Being humble, focusing on the work and the craft of what you're doing is going to take you farther and be more fulfilling. And be nice to people; it costs you nothing.
What makes a marketing partner fun to work with?
[TR]: When they allow me to work without trying to insert themselves into my process or trying to change my message or personal branding. Brands that trust me to market or promote their product in my own unique way are always more fun and are usually the most successful.

Volunteers and friends from Cana Communities will be with us this weekend seeking our help. Cana Communities provide family-type support for people from the streets. Cana Communities is one of the largest providers of crisis beds in the inner city. They will be holding an appeal at all Masses this weekend. Donations over $2 are tax deductible. Even if you don't donate, they would love to tell you about their community.
Each Christmas we like to invite the children of Our Lady of the Rosary to help decorate our Church. Today we have handed out packs for the children who attend Kids Church. At the back of the Church there are more drawings that can be coloured in and the children are welcome to add stickers or shapes you may have at home. Once your child has finished their decoration, please leave it in the Christmas box at the back of the Church so we can hang it up for them.
Thank you for helping us prepare our Church for the arrival of the baby Jesus.
Our Giving Tree has arrived in the Church this weekend. This year we are helping those in need at Christmas through St Vincent de Paul. Please take a tag from the tree and purchase a gift for someone who may receive nothing this year. The Vinnies team also encourage you to purchase a gift card instead of an actual gift – they are easier to transport and distribute. Gifts cards might be $10 or $20 or greater and from places like Kmart, Coles, Big W, Woolies etc. Please place your gift or gift card UNWRAPPED and in a gift bag under the tree. Please note that gifts should be for adults. There are spare empty gift bags under the tree if you don't have one. Thank you for your generous support at this time of year. It is greatly appreciated.
Advent has begun this weekend and we have begun rehearsing for our Kids Christmas Carols. This year we are performing two carols: Little Drummer Boy and Silent Night. Please encourage your children to practise at home. Word sheets are at the back of the Church if you need them. The children will be performing at the 6pm Christmas Eve Family Mass. We will also be performing a small enactment of the Christmas Story.

Commentary: Beavers, Cougars big losers in Pac-16
Greg Jayne: Commentary
By	Greg Jayne, Columbian Opinion Page Editor
Published: September 4, 2011, 12:00am
The first opening Saturday of the Pac-12 Conference has come and gone. It might be the last.
The latest scenario has Texas, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, and Texas Tech joining the 12 existing teams to form the Pac-16 — in a league that not so long ago had 10 teams.
And if all of this is moving so fast that it makes your head spin, look at it this way: At least it makes more sense than a Big 10 Conference that has 12 teams, or a Big 12 Conference that has 10.
Yet lost in this revived talk of Larry Scott's ever-expanding empire is this question: Can one league possibly be big enough for Phil Knight and T. Boone Pickens?
Knight is the patron of the University of Oregon athletic department. Pickens serves the same function for Oklahoma State. They are the nation's most obvious examples of how money can influence college sports, and it's no coincidence that their largesse has resulted in football programs that are fixtures in the Top 10.
Pickens even weighed in on the latest rumors Saturday, saying he thinks Oklahoma State eventually will wind up in the Pac-however-many.
"Don't rush the monkey and you'll see a better show," he said. "We don't have to decide this weekend."
No word yet on what monkeys have to do with anything. But the situation is turning into a circus.
The reason for the Pac-12's blitzkrieg to seize new lands is obvious. The conference added the Denver and Salt Lake City markets this year; it can stretch its tentacles into Dallas and Oklahoma City with the next move.
That would give the Pac-16 a foothold in eight states, schools in five of the 15 largest media markets in the country, and influence in 12 of the 25 largest. All while making Scott the most powerful person in college sports.
There's no doubt that adding Texas, et al., would be good for the conference. But would it be good for the Northwest schools?
Washington is secure in its position in college football society, a big-money school in a major media market. The Huskies will continue to yield influence.
So will Oregon, by virtue of its deep-pocketed benefactor and the national cachet it has built up.
Yet while the increased revenue would help the small-market schools of Oregon State and Washington State in relation to athletic programs in other leagues, it would move them further down the pecking order in their own conference.
The new Pac-12 Network is expected to add about $20 million a year to each of the school's coffers. An expanded Pac-16 Network would add even more.
But it also might lead some to question what the Beavers and the Cougars bring to the conference. If the overriding ethos is a desire to make more money for the schools, the presence of OSU and WSU does little to help, say, Texas. Other than providing teams the Longhorns can beat in nearly every sport.
The Beavs and the Cougs suddenly would be the couple that keeps getting invited to the party by their upwardly mobile friends. And you have to wonder how long it will be before their new friends say, "Tell me again: What do they add to the party? Why do we keep inviting them?"
For generations, conferences have been bound by loyalty and geography and common interests. The world was a bigger place; spheres of influence were smaller. Those days are gone, swept away by the realities of easy travel and expansive media.
The result will be a handful of megaconferences, and if the Pac-12 doesn't act now to grab the Oklahomas of the world, some other conference will. But it likely will further entrench Oregon State and Washington State as the embodiment of an old axiom: Somebody has to finish last.

Q: TweenLite onComplete fired instantly? After I finish a tween, I would like to change my variables, then only my mouse movement would have start to run some functions, but it seems like the onComplete function fired immediately messing all the things out. Isnt't that onComplete function will only run after an action is done? Any other way to like after running the Tween.to line of code, only it will ran the 2nd line changing a variable?
 stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, movevC);

public static function showSection(obj:DisplayObject):void {;
            var sect2X=((obj.stage.stageWidth/2)+(obj.stage.stageWidth/4))+lg.width;
            var sect2Y=((obj.stage.stageHeight/2)-(obj.stage.stageHeight/4))+lg.height;

            switch (obj.name) {

                case "section2" :
//onComplete run instantly??
                    TweenLite.to(vC, 10, {x:sect2X, y:sect2Y, rotation:0,ease:Elastic.easeInOut, onComplete:currentPage=2});
                    /*if ((vC.x=sect2X)&&(vC.y=sect2Y)) {
                        currentPage=2;
                    }*/
                    break;
            }
        }
private function movevC(event:MouseEvent):void {
if (currentPage==2) {
                TweenLite.to(vC, 2, {x:mouseX, y:mouseY});
            }
}

A: onComplete should be a reference to a function i.e. the name
what you need to to is something like this
TweenLite.to(vC, 10, {x:sect2X, y:sect2Y, rotation:0,ease:Elastic.easeInOut, onComplete:function(){currentPage=2}});

or even better, define a function that isn't 'inline' and then reference this

A: onComplete expects a function, so it would work if you put the currentPage=2 inside a function and put the function name inside onComplete.
like:
TweenLite.to(vC, 10, {x:sect2X, y:sect2Y, rotation:0,ease:Elastic.easeInOut, onComplete: changePageStatus});

private function changePageStatus ():void {
     currentPage = 2
}

You could also write the function directly into the Tween call, but get's messier.

A: below is the solution i came up with, doesn't seems so perfect :/
TweenLite.to(vC, 2, {x:sect2X, y:sect2Y, rotation:0,ease:Elastic.easeInOut});
                currentPage=2;
                break;

if ((vC.x==sect2X)&&(vC.y==sect2Y)&&(currentPage==2)) {
            currentPage=21;
        } else if (currentPage==21) {
run something
}
