Following the release of SQL Server Wait Types Library by Paul Randal via SQLSkills.com, I have updated my query which finds the most prolific wait types to include a link to the waits library for that particular wait type. The handy thing about the way Paul has named the posts is that they all end with the exact wait type name so this name can be pulled out from a query and appended to a fixed URL. This means we can copy the contents of the cell in the help_url column into our browser to find the entry in the SQL Server Wait Types Library.
As sys.dm_os_wait_stats is reset when SQL server is restarted, it's worth knowing the start time of the instance so you can get information on averages per minute or hour (or some other time scale). This is included in the query below. Please bear in mind that the contents of this DMV can be cleared out by running DBCC SQLPERF ('sys.dm_os_wait_stats', CLEAR); so server start time is not completely reliable as a measure for working out averages.

W elcome to another edition of the Beeline Weekly Roundup! We designed our weekly roundup with clients in mind – showcasing a few articles each week to keep clients up-to-date about newsworthy happenings throughout the workforce industry.
Learning that your current Vendor Management System (VMS) provider has been acquired by another organization can be a little scary. Questions may arise. Research on the acquiring vendor, as well as the potential research and adoption of a brand new provider begins. The failure rate of mergers is typically greater than 50%, with some studies even citing numbers as high as 70% rate of failure. It is important that with a risk of failure as high as these numbers, your company does their research and follows the steps cited in this article so that the failure risk does not pass on to you.
This is the third installment a multi-article series as part of the Ardent Partners' landmark new research study. With contingent labor expected to grow by almost 30% over the next three years, it's important to be aware of and combat the risks in utilizing this segment of the workforce. While close to 64% of organizations out there actually institute regular reviews of their contract labor compliance against federal and regulatory requirements, there are only 43% that include detailed written assumptions of risk of work completion ownership in SOWs as well as other agreements out there. This can present an issue of risk management in an adverse event, which is no fun for any party involved.
The tectonic plates are shifting under the California job market this year. What does this mean?

Bold Decisions, Creative Risks + General Badassery: Our Favorite Movers and Shakers
This month we were inspired by our interview with Jene Park of Thomas Wylde. She's an all around inspiration when it comes to charting your own path as a creative entrepreneur. Inspired by her jump from a full-time role at BCBG to start her own line of clothing, it got us thinking about other creative risk takers we admire.
So for our latest list from The Creative Executive, we've pulled from industries spanning from design, to food, to journalism. In fact we even kick off the list from the biggest players in the hospitality industry.
So read up and be inspired to take your own creative risks!
AirBnB: How have two designers and tech guy single-handedly disrupted an entire hospitality industry? Ask Nathan Blecharczyk, Brian Chesky, Joe Gebbia, the three founders of AirBnB. Who would have ever thought you could turn your apartment into something that feels like a world-class hotel and a truly authentic traveling experience? Bold travelers wanting an immersive experience (but don't want to sacrifice cleanliness and comfort), are turning to the site everyday. Plus, there are individuals who have turned hosting into a lucrative second income – all of these factors make AirBnB a company with a 2.7 billion dollar valuation and a household name.
The Sartorialist: Imagine walking up to someone you found attractive, intriguing, or flawlessly fashionable and asking to take their photo? Founder/blogger/photographer Scott Schuman began The Sartorialist with the idea of creating a two-way dialogue about the world of fashion and its relationship to daily life by engaging everyday people (and a handful of super hot models) in the process. In addition to the blog, Schuman's work has been featured in GQ, Vogue Italia, Vogue Paris, and Interview; for GQ, Schuman shot and edited his own page for over three years.
Love and Lemons: When you run a blog that features food, every time you enter the test kitchen you're taking a risk. Food blogger Jeanine Donofrio of Love and Lemons does just that: trying out new recipes and delivering only the finest to you. Her work has been covered in Redbook Magazine, Food 52, Refinery29 and SELF Magazine. Love & Lemons was recently named 2014 Readers Choice Best Cooking Blog by Saveur Magazine.
Martin Parr: British Photograph Martin Parr has a keen eye and daring creative aesthetic. His site bio, written by Thomas Weski, says it best: "At first glance, his photographs seem exaggerated or even grotesque. The motifs he chooses are strange, the colours are garish and the perspectives are unusual. Parr's term for the overwhelming power of published images is 'propaganda'. He counters this propaganda with his own chosen weapons: criticism, seduction and humour. As a result, his photographs are original and entertaining, accessible and understandable. But at the same time they show us in a penetrating way how we live, how we present ourselves to others, and what we value."
Twenty Bliss: We feel in love with Sarah Köhler, the creative leader behind Twenty Bliss, when reading Design Good's article about this young talent, which states "TwentyBliss began as a blog to collect real stories of young artists and creatives, as opposed to the clichéd stories about people in their 20's Sarah saw showing up in her daily newsfeed." In an industry that often looks to curators and critics to decide what is assigned value, making time, space, and a platform for young talent to get exposure is critical. Sarah made the jump out on her own before most of her peers – a bold move that is paying off!
Blu: Graffiti artists take many risks. (Namely, facing fines or prison time or hefty fines.) Which is why our list wouldn't be complete without a nod to at least one street artist. Blu, dubbed by many as the "Italian Banksy" lives in Bologna, Italy and has been on the scene for over 15 years. Blu's most famous artwork culminates in a graphic animation composed of hundreds of paintings on walls that apply to a seven minute animated mural. This incredible video is called Muto, and has over 10 million view on YouTube. Street Art News said of his work, "Blu's aesthetic search is motivated by a belief in an open source philosophy. His amazing work stands as truth against political events and other socialistic controversies in today's modern age."
Azuma Makoto: If being an artist isn't hard enough work, imagine if your medium was plants. That's one ambitious creative undertaking, but artist and designer Azuma Makoto runs a haute couture flower shop called JARDINS des FLEURS in Moto-Azabu, Tokyo. His work with plants and flowers culminates with a wide variety of sculptures, installations and objects using trees, leaves, moss, and other plants both organic and artificial. One of his most ambitious works included sending a gorgeous structural bouquet into space.
Paul Jarvis: What we love about Paul is his radical transparency about how his he makes money by doing client work and his own projects. Awesome and enlightening, his articles, newsletters, and original writing are packed with great advice and accessible honesty.
Dan Gilbert: If you were to ask someone what is the biggest gamble on real estate, betting on Detroit might be the answer. But the "fantastically wealthy founder and chairman of Quicken Loans" is doing just that. This Detroit native has spent $1 billion acquiring nearly three million square feet of real estate in this struggling city. Will his bet pay off? Only time will tell. But either way, we are impressed with this visionary and creative risk taker!
Amanda Burden: New York's chief city planner during the Bloomberg administration, Burden revitalized of some of the city's most familiar features — from the High Line to the Brooklyn waterfront. To have both the vision and the political will to make these major revitalizations happen, you can see how Amanda Burden has made our list.
Stefan Sagmeister famously closes his creative boutique's doors every few years for what he calls "a mini-retirement." His off-year creative pursuits have been chronicled in books and Ted Talks. He has inspired a generation of "follow your passion and your art" design followers.
Studio Neat: Crowdfunding is like turning your creative baby over to the masses. But Studio Neat has fearlessly done it again and again – successfully. They shared their experience and learnings in their ebook, It Will Be Exhilarating.
Jessica Hische has tons of fans for her incredible lettering and design work. But it might be said that she further thrusted herself into the creative leadership world with a daring and a candid post she shared on her blog called "The Dark Art of Pricing." Her honesty and love for her fellow designers shone through by giving them a glimpse inside her studio and her process.
Dan Cassaro publicly took on Showtime with a simple tweet, and in doing so created a recent rallying-cry for designers everywhere. But it isn't just his tweet that landed him on this list, his bold, visionary work has been featured in the New York Times, Rolling Stone and Wall Street Journal. You know, just to name a few.
Christian Helms: We don't know how many designers also become restaurateur, but as a Austin-based company that frequents Frank, we're not complaining. Part owner, his creative work touches every aspect of the dining experience. And beyond his phenomenal design studio, he also designs boots. Pretty amazing, if you ask us.
These are Things: Jen and Omar, the creative team behind These Are Things, may have opened their shop relatively young, but that hasn't stopped their skyrocketing success. They dove in with little experience running their own shop, but have learned as they go. They've even published an Unconventional Guide called "Designed to Sell" chronicling everything they've learned along the way and offering up advice and resources for others.
Vice Magazine's editorial crew gets some mad props for creative risk taking – heading to crazy places and reporting on the most bizarre stories. Explore their site, read their magazine, or HBO go their show – these are truly some risk takers.

People's trust of 'fake faces' could make them more susceptible to fake news and have dire consequences with trust
by Royal Holloway, University of London

Participants in new research conducted by Royal Holloway and the Warburg Institute, both University of London, were likely to trust artificially generated faces, known as generative adversarial network (GAN) faces, than real ones, making them more susceptible to misinformation and creating a cultural visual landscape towards a more deceptive society.
The study, published in the journal iScience and titled "On the Realness of People Who Do Not Exist: The Social Processing of Artificial Faces," lab-led by Professor Manos Tsakiris from the Department of Psychology at Royal Holloway, and study-led by Dr. Raffaele Tucciarelli at the Warburg Institute, School of Advanced Study, showed participants a series of faces that either belonged to real people or were artificially generated (AI).
Participants were asked to judge whether the faces were real or not and, intriguingly, GAN faces were more likely to be perceived as real over those of actual people.
The findings highlight the recent advances in the technology used to generate artificial images, with an impressive acceleration over the last decade of GAN technology—resulting in faces looking incredibly realistic today.
GAN faces are realistic-looking images of non-existing people that are computer generated. The people depicted in these images do not exist and never existed. They are increasingly used in marketing, journalism and social media, but also for malicious purposes, such as political propaganda and espionage.
The findings are important when society considers the social implications: from mainstream news to social media, edited photos to deep fake videos, humans to bots, and from alternative facts to fake news—people have to judge the reliability of the information they see.
The ever-increasing use of fake images and videos is shifting the cultural visual landscape from being primarily truthful to being potentially deceptive. The question of who to trust becomes particularly relevant.
For that reason, the same team of researchers went on to show, in a separate study, that participants are more likely to trust the information conveyed by faces they had previously judged to be real, even if they were artificially generated.
Professor Manos Tsakiris, professor of psychology at Royal Holloway—and also director of the Centre for the Politics of Feelings at the School of Advanced Study lab-led the study, said, "Many have argued that one of biggest casualties to artificial intelligence will be the erosion of trust in what we see and hear.
"As we show in our study, the realness that people project onto artificial faces makes them more likely to be trusted as informational sources, but later, when people realize there are AI images out there, their whole trust of any information given to them is drastically reduced.
"This could lead to people disengaging with messages given to them in the future as they do not know who or what to trust. Educating audiences about such technologies and advancing their digital literacy may make us less gullible but at the same time it may make us, in general, less trusting."
Dr. Raffaele Tucciarelli, who has recently completed his research at the Warburg Institute, added, "Our results show that people's biases in perceiving artificial faces as real can then make them more gullible to information conveyed by such artificial agents.
"As we live in times when more than ever before in human history, we are asked to judge the realness, truthfulness and trustworthiness of our social world, and what information we decide to trust can have far-reaching consequences."
To further understand the role that knowledge of the existence of such technology may play in people's behavior, researchers then conducted a third study where half of the participants were informed about the existence of GAN faces while the other half were kept in the dark.
The results showed that informed participants showed overall lower levels of trust in their virtual interaction with all faces presented to them, independently of whether these were real or not.
The subversive and ubiquitous use of technologies that can generate realistic-yet-fake photos and videos can erode trust in the main informational sources that we use, such as social media, with far-reaching consequences for our societies.

Q: Counting the number of of incidences of a certain number, adding results to a new column I have the following dataset:
structure(list(SERIAL = c(118694001L, 118694001L, 118694001L,
118695001L, 118696001L, 118696001L, 118696001L, 118697001L, 118698001L,
118698001L, 118699001L, 118699001L, 118699001L, 118700001L, 118700001L,
118701001L, 118701001L), RELATED = c(9999L, 9999L, 9999L, 3100L,
3100L, 3100L, 3100L, 3100L, 3100L, 3100L, 9999L, 9999L, 9999L,
3100L, 3100L, 3100L, 3100L)), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA,
-17L))

I want to create a new column, 'count,' that counts the incidence of the number 3100 in the column RELATED, but it has to be grouped by SERIAL.
I have tried
df <- within(data, DILs2 <- ave(SERIAL, list(SERIAL, RELATED == 3100), FUN=length))

The result should look like this:
SERIAL  RELATED Count
118694001   9999    0
118694001   9999    0
118694001   9999    0
118695001   3100    1
118696001   3100    3
118696001   3100    3
118696001   3100    3
118697001   3100    1
118698001   3100    2
118698001   3100    2
118699001   9999    0
118699001   9999    0
118699001   9999    0
118700001   3100    2
118700001   3100    2
118701001   3100    2
118701001   3100    2

A: If you are looking for multiple values in RELATED, then using group_by(SERIAL, RELATED) and then mutate(count = n()) will be better.
Below codes might help you going ahead
You could do that using dplyr as below:
library(dplyr)
df %>%
  group_by(SERIAL) %>%
  summarise(count  = sum(RELATED == 3100))
# A tibble: 8 x 2
     SERIAL count
      <int> <int>
1 118694001     0
2 118695001     1
3 118696001     3
4 118697001     1
5 118698001     2
6 118699001     0
7 118700001     2
8 118701001     2

Or in data.table as:
library(data.table)
setDT(df)[, .(count = sum(RELATED == 3100)), SERIAL]
      SERIAL count
1: 118694001     0
2: 118695001     1
3: 118696001     3
4: 118697001     1
5: 118698001     2
6: 118699001     0
7: 118700001     2
8: 118701001     2

Or in base R using aggregate as:
aggregate(RELATED ~ SERIAL, data=df, function(x) {sum(x == 3100)})
     SERIAL RELATED
1 118694001       0
2 118695001       1
3 118696001       3
4 118697001       1
5 118698001       2
6 118699001       0
7 118700001       2
8 118701001       2

A: Using your data frame. This can be done with one line of code.
 > data.frame(table(df$SERIAL,df$RELATED))
        Var1 Var2 Freq
1  118694001 3100    0
2  118695001 3100    1
3  118696001 3100    3
4  118697001 3100    1
5  118698001 3100    2
6  118699001 3100    0
7  118700001 3100    2
8  118701001 3100    2
9  118694001 9999    3
10 118695001 9999    0
11 118696001 9999    0
12 118697001 9999    0
13 118698001 9999    0
14 118699001 9999    3
15 118700001 9999    0
16 118701001 9999    0

The rest is aesthetics.
Hope this is helpful.

A: You can also do this-
library(data.table)
setDT(dt)
dt[,count:=.N,by=c("SERIAL")]
dt[,count:=ifelse(RELATED!=3100,0,count)]

> dt
       SERIAL RELATED count
 1: 118694001    9999     0
 2: 118694001    9999     0
 3: 118694001    9999     0
 4: 118695001    3100     1
 5: 118696001    3100     3

Providence Metro
Life in the Providence Metro area has undergone an impressive transformation over recent decades. Once a brimming hub of industrialization, the Providence Metro has shed its once manufacturing-focused reputation and been reborn as a center of institutions, arts, and leisure. The Providence area owes its transformation to the development of its eight hospitals, seven higher education facilities and an explosion of hospitality. Top educational facilities such as Brown University and the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) add to the appeal of the Providence Metro and further create an energetic atmosphere.
With a reputation for selling some of the best coffee in the US and famous for its mouthwatering doughnut shops, foodies will truly fall in love with the Providence Metro. If sweet treats aren't enough to tempt then any other tastes can be catered for as Providence has a vast food scene with claims of the most restaurants per capita of any US city. It isn't all about food, however, markets, concerts and unique festivals such as the Waterfire are regularly held by the riverside and often Brown University holds events for local residents to enjoy.

UPCEA Hallmarks of Excellence
Standards, aspirations, and principles essential to a successful enterprise
Online education is now critical for the future of America's universities. Institutions can no longer establish a presence in this arena without a concerted institutional strategy and structure to accomplish this now major undertaking.
The UPCEA Hallmarks of Excellence in Online Leadership are an attempt to articulate those features and principles that will create opportunities for students that far exceed anything already achieved in higher education, take pedagogy to a new level, and demonstrate the capacity of universities to be an even more vital force in our society.
The Hallmarks of Excellence in Professional and Continuing Education are an opportunity to define a set of standards that reflect the ambitions, potential, and importance of the PCE unit's work—standards few achieve often enough to be complacent. Commitment to mission, enrollments, innovation, and academic excellence are the inseparable aspirations of professional and continuing educators.
These Hallmarks of Excellence presume that professional and continuing education is central, pervasive, and critical within institutions of higher learning—crossing internal boundaries and extending external ones, promoting change, and responding to current dynamics that convert challenges into opportunities.
The Hallmarks of Excellence in Credential Innovation are intended to be both aspirational and a practical toolkit to assist those in Professional, Continuing, and Online Education (PCO) to think systematically and concretely about the nature of credentials at their institution as well as the strategy and logistical components of supporting learners throughout their lifetimes.
These Hallmarks focus on alternative credentials, which includes certificates, micro-credentials, digital badges, or micro-certificates, signaling specific competencies, certification, and sometimes licensure.

Late Stage Capitalism And Environmental Destruction: The Rise Of Collective Responsibility Ba Fine Art, Ual Essay
2481 words - 10 pages
Late-stage capitalism and environmental destruction: the rise of collective responsibility
2017 has seen the advent of the term "late capitalism", referring to a new economic stage of the post-industrial development, characterised by deregulation and a reckless approach to profit. However, the last two years have also seen the ravages and damages caused by global warming worldwide, the dwindling of natural resources. Is there a direct correlation between individualistic course for profit and political apathy?
Economist, political advisor and activist Jeremy Rifkin believes the current economic system is soon to self-destruct. Accurately predicting technological and fiscal trends, Rifkin writes of a third industrial revolution, which credibly demonstrates the contradictions of capitalism, its immanent death and the necessity of renewable energy.
The collapse of capitalism has long been prophesized, profoundly so, by philosopher Karl Marx. As the author of The Communist Manifesto, written in 1848, Marx predicted the conflicts of overproduction, concentration of capital and a rising intelligent proletariat. (Marx 19:83:210-214). Marx based the heart of his system on ideas of human production. Marx's study of the division of labour is extremely like philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau's. The want for private property led to the division of labour, which in turn gave rise to the subsistence of unconnected social classes based on economic variances. Believing that the existence of the proletariat alone, would render the State unneeded, Marx argued the state to be an instrument of social control used by the members of one class to suppress the members of another.
"In place of the old bourgeois society, with its classes and class antagonisms, we shall have an association in which the free development of each is the condition for the development of all." (The Communist Manifesto (1848), in Marx-Engels Selected Works (Moscow: Foreign Languages Publishing House, 1962)
Subjected to critique, scholars such as Jeremy Rifkin discuss the ways in which the work of Marx did not foresee all the core contradictions of the system.
"We are beginning to witness a paradox at the heart of capitalism, one that has propelled it to greatness but is now threatening its future: The inherent dynamism of competitive markets is bringing costs so far down that many goods and services are becoming nearly free, abundant, and no longer subject to market forces. While economists have always welcomed a reduction in marginal cost, they never anticipated the possibility of a technological revolution that might bring those costs to near zero." (Rifkin, 2016).
The far-reaching grip of capitalism infiltrated systems throughout society, and as financial power transcended into political power, its influence was seen in government, media, education and science. How has capitalist theory impacted environmental changes, and humanitarian management of said eco issues?
A core characteristic central...

NSE Brand New: C.Ka– releases 'Wild and Free'
November 5, 2019 November 5, 2019 newsoundexpress
C.Ka is an upcoming musician from the GTA. His goal as a songwriter has always been to write music that is meaningful to people all across the world that is also exciting and new. As an upcoming artist he plans to change the notion that music is losing its deeper meaning by creating music that is relatable and truthful.
His first single "Wild and Free" was recently released to all major musical platforms. Written with a reggaeton feel, "Wild and Free" is a song written with the summer in mind for everyone who likes to party. "Wild and Free" is currently getting radio play on multiple U.S. radio stations and is starting to break out in the Canadian radio scene as well.
C.Ka is currently working on releasing two more singles: "That Girl" ft. Hazard and "Keep Moving On". The soon to be released "That Girl" ft. Hazard keeps up the summer vibe with another reggaeton song. Hazard makes a solid appearance on the track which solidifies the summer song feel.
Switching up the style to keep things fresh, "Keep Moving On" is about C.Ka's real life journey through being diagnosed with cancer. His hope is that "Keep Moving On" will motivate other people going through similar struggles to continue to fight and win their own battles.
C.Ka soon plans to release a full album of original music written in a variety of styles to show the world what a Canadian-born artist is capable of.
THE FULL HISTORY OF C.Ka.
C.Ka was born in on August 23rd, 1992. He started his musical journey at the age of 4 when he began taking vocal lessons in his hometown of Whitby, Ontario. He progressed to the piano at the age of 7 which gave him the required tools to start writing his own music. He then wrote his first piano composition at the age of 8 which ignited his passion for writing music.
From there C.Ka moved on to writing music for a wider range of instruments. He wrote and conducted his first concert band arrangement at the age of 14 which was performed by his high school band at Donald A. Wilson Secondary School. During his time in high school he also began performing as a tuba player with the Whitby Brass Band which has been part of the Whitby community for over 150 years. However, his main performance focus was always the piano. C.Ka is an accomplished pianist through the Royal Conservatory of Music, having received first class honours on his Grade 10 piano performance exam in 2009. Using these skills he has experience teaching private piano, vocal and brass lessons at Long & McQuade. He currently works as a music teacher with the Durham District School Board but is looking to pursue his personal music career full time.
C.Ka continues to write concert band music to this day, most notably being commissioned to write a piece of music to celebrate the 10th anniversary of his high school music program in 2016.
Upon graduating high school C.Ka accepted the Istvan and Beate Anhalt Entrance Scholarship to Queen's University, a scholarship given to students that show promise in composing. During his time at Queen's University he wrote multiple pieces of music in a variety of styles and for a variety of instruments. He also performed in the school orchestra, the concert band, as a piano soloist and as a sousaphone player with the Queen's Bands Marching Band. It was at this time in his musical career that he also began to write more mainstreamed music for piano and voice. It is this style of music that C.Ka is now looking to share with the world, using his extensive knowledge of music theory to write music in the pop genre.
In the summer of 2016, C.Ka was faced with a very personal challenge. On the day of his 24th birthday he received a call from his doctor to inform him that he had been diagnosed with testicular cancer. What ensued was a year long battle with the disease, starting with a surgery to remove a malignant tumour. After a short 5 month period of being in remission, he was then re-diagnosed with the disease which had spread to the lymph nodes in his neck and had progressed to Stage 4 cancer. He was given less than 50% odds to survive. Through 12 weeks of chemotherapy treatments and regular doctor's appointments he was officially declared cancer free a week before his 25th birthday. His single "Keep Moving On", which will be released in 2019, was written during his time as a cancer patient as an anthem for people fighting their own personal battles. He performed this song in public for the first time on his last day of chemotherapy treatments at Lakeridge Health in Oshawa, Ontario with hopes that it would inspire other cancer patients to keep fighting to beat the disease.
C.Ka is now happy to be healthy and able to return to sports. His favourite sport to play is the Harry Potter inspired game of quidditch. He began playing quidditch (which has developed into a co-ed, full contact hybrid of handball and dodgeball) in 2013 for the Queen's University Quidditch Club. Since then he has won a national championship with the Ottawa Otters Community Team during the 2018-2019 season and received a silver medal at the inaugural Pan-American Quidditch Games this summer in Richmond, Virginia.
He has also returned to work as a teacher with the Durham District School board. This past school year he finished his first "Long Term Occasional" (LTO) teaching placement with S.A Cawker Public School in Port Perry as a music and geography/history teacher. He has another music LTO job lined up for the upcoming school year at Harmony Heights Public School in Oshawa.
C.Ka is fervently recording his original music with his producer Patrick Stephenson with plans to release a full album.
His first single and music video "Wild and Free" was released in June 2019 and is currently seeing play on American Radio stations. His next few singles to be publicly released are "That Girl" – Ft. Hazard and his previously mentioned motivational anthem "Keep Moving On". C.Ka is eager to display what he is capable of sharing with the world.

Many people with borderline disorder engage in self-injurious behaviors such as cutting, burning and small drug overdoses. Cutting is by far the most common act of this type of behavior. About 9 percent of people with the disorder commit suicide. The most frequent means is by drug overdose. Both types of behavior may occur in the same individual. Cutting behaviors double the risk of suicide in people with borderline disorder.
In addition to cutting and burning themselves, and taking small drug overdoses, people with borderline disorder hit themselves, pull out their hair, scratch their skin to the point they open wounds, and injure themselves in other ways. Most people with the disorder who injure themselves report that they do so mainly to decrease the intense emotional pain they experience. Feeling empty inside may also lead to self injurious behaviors. Remarkably,it is often reported that the first time cutting and other self injurious behaviors occurred, the idea just came to the indivdual. Finally, they report that these acts usually do result in brief emotional relief.
It is important that family and other loved ones understand that this is the main motive of self injurious behaviors, not primarily to manipulate the situation or the people around them, though this is often a secondary motive.
There are a number of factors that increase the risk that a person with borderline disorder will commit suicide. Although nothing can be done to reverse some of these factors, others are highly treatable, and deserve immediate attention.
Self-injurious behaviors do not appear to decrease or "burn out" with increasing age in people with borderline disorder, as do other aggressive and impulsive behaviors.
* Note: If you have borderline disorder and have a tendency to abuse alcohol or drugs, it is essential that you obtain help to abstain completely from doing so.

RUMOR: 'Shazam!' Star Mark Strong Joins 'Cruella' As Villain's Father
Christian Hubbard Posted On January 3, 2020
Disney's live-action films have garnered several billion dollars over the last few years. Projects like The Lion King and Aladdin have been commercial and critical successes for the studio. However, the Angelina Jolie starring Maleficent franchise provided a new look at the origin and motivations of the iconic Sleeping Beauty villain.
In that same vein, the upcoming 2021 film Cruella will bring Cruella de Vil's origin to life. Starring Emma Stone as the fur-obsessed 101 Dalmatians villain, the film will be set in early 1970s London. In a new report from TheDisInsider, Mark Strong is rumored to play Cruella's father, The Baron. Additionally, the report claims the character is "said to have a kind heart and is a good person."
Previously, Emma Thompson joined the cast as The Baroness, Cruella's mother. Moreover, Paul Walter Hauser and Joel Fry will play henchmen Horace and Jasper.

Stone will portray de Vil as a young fashion designer as she develops her obsession with dalmatian fur. Glenn Close, who played the character in Disney's 1996 live-action 101 Dalmatians will executive produce. Additionally, Craig Gillespie (I, Tonya) will direct with a script written by Aline Brosh McKenna, Jez Butterworth, Dana Fox, Kelly Marcel, Tony McNamara, and Steve Zissis.
What do you think of the rumor? Would you like to see Strong appear as Cruella's father? Sound off in the comments below!
Cruella will leap into theaters on May 28, 2021. The film stars Emma Stone, Emma Thompson, Paul Walter Hauser, and Joel Fry.
