Trends in nutrient intakes, nutritional status, and correlates of undernutrition among rural children below 5 years of age: The National Nutrition Monitoring Bureau Survey 2012 p. 84
II Meshram, MR Kodavanti, HK Rachkulla, B Nagalla, SR Kakani, National Nutrition Monitoring Bureau Study Group
Background: In spite of several national nutrition intervention programs that have been in operation since the past four decades, undernutrition continues to be an important public health problem in India. Aim: The aim of the present study was to assess the trends in food and nutrient intakes and nutritional status of children in India below 5 years of age. Setting and Design: A community-based, cross-sectional study was carried out in ten National Nutrition Monitoring Bureau states by adopting a multistage random sampling procedure. Methods: Data were collected on the household (HH) socioeconomic and demographic particulars, and anthropometric measurements of the children, such as their length/height and weight, were noted. A 24-h dietary recall method was used for assessing dietary intake. Results: Intake of all the foodstuffs except pulses, vegetables, and fats and oils declined over a period of time (1975–1979 to 2011–2012) while the intake of all the micronutrients except Vitamins A and C declined during the same period. The prevalence of undernutrition, i.e. underweight, stunting, and wasting has declined from 76%, 82%, and 27%, respectively in 1975–1979 to 42%, 44%, and 19%,respectively, in 2011–2012 among 1-5 year children. The severe form of undernutrition has also declined during the same period. The prevalence of undernutrition was significantly (P < 0.01) higher among children of illiterate mothers, those belonging to lower socioeconomic status, and those living in nuclear families. Conclusions: The prevalence of undernutrition declined over the period despite the decrease in food and nutrient intake. However, the pace of decline was slower and it was attributed to improved health-care services coupled with control of communicable diseases and increase in the HHs income. Further efforts are needed to improve the literacy of parents, environmental and personal hygiene, along with the food security of HHs through a public distribution system.
Do high sensitivity C-reactive protein and serum interleukin-6 levels correlate with disease activity in systemic lupus erythematosuspatients? p. 92
V Umare, A Nadkarni, M Nadkar, A Rajadhyksha, P Khadilkar, K Ghosh, VD Pradhan
Introduction: Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is an inflammatory autoimmune disease where an interplay between acute phase proteins and cytokines are involved in disease activation. Aim and Objectives: This case control study was performed to investigate interrelationship between high sensitivity C-reactive proteins (hs-CRP), Interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels and disease activity among SLE patients. Materials and Methods: One hundred forty one clinically diagnosed SLE cases were included and disease activity was noted by SLE Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI). Serum IL-6 levels were measure by cytokine multiplex assay. Serum hs-CRP, C3 and C4 levels were measure by nephelometer. The Pearson correlation test was used for correlation between hs-CRP, Il-6 and SLEDAI. Results: Based on SLEDAI, 126 patients (89.4 %) had active disease and 15 patients (10.6%) had inactive disease. Mean hs-CRP levels in SLE patients were significantly higher (12.1+ 11.5 mg/L) than controls (2.41+ 1.37 mg/L) (P < 0.0001). Hs-CRP levels among active SLE were significantly higher (13.5+ 11.4 mg/L) as compared with inactive SLE (4.4 + 2.9 mg/L) (P=0.0002). Similarly, IL-6 levels in SLE patients were significantly higher among active SLE (26.9 + 15.5 pg/ml) as compared with inactive SLE (13.9+ 10.2 pg/ml) (P=0.0001). An inverse correlation between Il-6 and hemoglobin levels between active and inactive SLE was noted (r=-0.46, P <0.0001). Conclusion: This study suggests a good correlation between hs-CRP, IL-6 and SLE disease activity indicating their direct involvement in inflammatory conditions associated with disease.
Cytohistological correlation in pituitary tumor and immunological assessment with the help of Ki-67 p. 96
A Sen, C Das, M Mukhopadhyay, S Mukhopadhyay, S Deb, B Mukhopadhyay
Background: Tumors of the pituitary gland and sellar region represent approximately 10–15% of all brain tumors. Pituitary adenoma (PA), the most common pathology of the pituitary gland, can be effectively subclassified only with the help of immunohistochemistry (IHC). This is important and needed for individual patient management. Aims and Objectives: The objective of the study was to analyze the importance of intraoperative imprint smear cytology and correlating with final histopathological diagnosis. Furthermore, to classify the different types of PA with the help of IHC, prolactin (PRL), adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), and growth hormone (GH) and to predict the benign, atypical, or malignant nature of the tumor with the help of prognostic marker Ki-67. Materials and Methods: A prospective study was done in 34 cases. The patients whose pituitary gland samples are referred from the endocrine and the neurosurgery department to the pathology department for histopathological examinations were selected. We have studied the clinical features, radiology and touch imprint cytology, histopathology, and IHC with the help of PRL, ACTH, GH, and Ki-67 of PA over 2 years. Results: In our study, we had 32 cases of PA of 34 cases over a span of 2 years. We have seen that there is a correlation between cytological and histological diagnosis of the subtypes of PA in 62% cases, and the Kappa statistics show a moderate extent of agreement (Kappa - 0.320, 95% confidence interval = 0.031–0.609). Ki-67 when compared to the radiological grading showed a high degree of comparability (Chi-square test: P < 0.001). All cases with invasion had a higher Ki-67. On using the Fisher's exact test, we found that the Ki-67 expression with GH-producing adenomas and ACTH-producing adenomas was comparable (P = 1.000) while in PRL-producing adenomas too this was not significant (P = 0.269). Conclusion: PA can be effectively classified with the help of IHC. Intraoperative cytology is important in diagnosing PA, but histopathology remains the gold standard in diagnosing and differentiating PA from other pathologies of the pituitary gland. The radiological grading together with immunological classification and the prognostic markers of Ki-67 is important in deciding the benign or atypical nature of the adenomas thus helping in better patient management.
Acceptability and feasibility of mini-clinical evaluation exercise as a formative assessment tool for workplace-based assessment for surgical postgraduate students p. 100
MK Joshi, T Singh, DK Badyal
Background: Despite an increasing emphasis on workplace-based assessment (WPBA) during medical training, the existing assessment system largely relies on summative assessment while formative assessment is less valued. Various tools have been described for WPBA, mini-clinical evaluation exercise (mini-CEX) being one of them. Mini-CEX is well accepted in Western countries, however, reports of its use in India are scarce. We conducted this study to assess acceptability and feasibility of mini-CEX as a formative assessment tool for WPBA of surgical postgraduate students in an Indian setting. Methods: Faculty members and 2nd year surgical residents were sensitized toward mini-CEX and requisite numbers of exercises were conducted. The difficulties during conduction of these exercises were identified, recorded, and appropriate measures were taken to address them. At the conclusion, the opinion of residents and faculty members regarding their experience with mini-CEX was taken using a questionnaire. The results were analyzed using simple statistical tools. Results: Nine faculty members out of 11 approached participated in the study (81.8%). All 16 2nd year postgraduate surgical residents participated (100%). Sixty mini-CEX were conducted over 7 months. Each resident underwent 3–5 encounters. The mean time taken by the assessor for observation was 12.3 min (8–30 min) while the mean feedback time was 4.2 min (3–10 min). The faculty reported good overall satisfaction with mini-CEX and found it acceptable as a formative assessment tool. Three faculty members (33.3%) reported mini-CEX as more time-consuming while 2 (22.2%) found it difficult to carry the exercises often. All residents accepted mini-CEX and most of them reported good to high satisfaction with the exercises conducted. Conclusions: Mini-CEX is well accepted by residents and faculty as a formative assessment tool. It is feasible to utilize mini-CEX for WPBA of postgraduate students of surgery.
Prevalence and risk factors of hypertension and diabetes in the Katkari tribe of coastal Maharashtra p. 106
MG Deo, PV Pawar, SR Kanetkar, SV Kakade
Background and Objectives: Urban and rural India are both going through health epidemiological transition and will soon face huge burden of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs). Information on the status of NCDs in tribals is limited. Although the prevalence of hypertension in scheduled tribes (STs) has been studied in several states by the National Nutrition Monitoring Bureau, tribe-specific data are very scanty. The objective of this study was to generate data on the status of hypertension and diabetes, the two objectively measurable NCDs in Katkaris, the dominant ST in the Raigad district of coastal Maharashtra. Methods: The study was conducted in 410 adult Katkaris (women 219) of both sexes of ≥18 years of age in three adjoining tehsils of the district. Using the Institution Review Board approved protocol; information was obtained on sociodemographic parameters, educational level, dietary pattern, and substance abuse. Prevalence of overweight, hypertension, and diabetes was measured using standard field-based procedures and techniques. Results: Katkaris, who are mostly landless manual laborers, subsist on a protein-poor, imbalanced diet. About half of women and one-third of men have body mass index (BMI) <18.5 kg/m2, an indication of undernutrition. On the other hand, about 2% of participants were obese (BMI ≥30 kg/m2). The overall prevalence of hypertension and diabetes was 16.8% and 7.3%, respectively. Hypercholesterolemia was recorded in about 3% of the participants. Interpretation and Conclusions: Prevalence of diabetes and hypertension in Katkaris is still lower than that of urban and rural populations, closer to the latter. This may be due to the absence of known risk factors such as obesity, sedentary lifestyle, and hyperlipidemia in this community. Fast acculturation of the STs suggests that NCDs will soon become a major health issue in them too. It is time to launch a multicentric national study to gather baseline information on the status of NCDs in STs.
Adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase-based classification of diabetes pharmacotherapy p. 114
D Dutta, S Kalra, M Sharma
The current classification of both diabetes and antidiabetes medication is complex, preventing a treating physician from choosing the most appropriate treatment for an individual patient, sometimes resulting in patient-drug mismatch. We propose a novel, simple systematic classification of drugs, based on their effect on adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK). AMPK is the master regular of energy metabolism, an energy sensor, activated when cellular energy levels are low, resulting in activation of catabolic process, and inactivation of anabolic process, having a beneficial effect on glycemia in diabetes. This listing of drugs makes it easier for students and practitioners to analyze drug profiles and match them with patient requirements. It also facilitates choice of rational combinations, with complementary modes of action. Drugs are classified as stimulators, inhibitors, mixed action, possible action, and no action on AMPK activity. Metformin and glitazones are pure stimulators of AMPK. Incretin-based therapies have a mixed action on AMPK. Sulfonylureas either inhibit AMPK or have no effect on AMPK. Glycemic efficacy of alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, sodium glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitor, colesevelam, and bromocriptine may also involve AMPK activation, which warrants further evaluation. Berberine, salicylates, and resveratrol are newer promising agents in the management of diabetes, having well-documented evidence of AMPK stimulation medicated glycemic efficacy. Hence, AMPK-based classification of antidiabetes medications provides a holistic unifying understanding of pharmacotherapy in diabetes. This classification is flexible with a scope for inclusion of promising agents of future.
GRAND ROUND CASE
Rare disease heralded by pulmonary manifestations: Avoiding pitfalls of an "asthma" label p. 122
S Bajaj, M Muranjan, S Karande, D Prabhat
Pulmonary manifestations are seldom recognized as symptoms of storage disorders. The report describes the diagnostic journey in a 30-month-old male infant, born of a third-degree consanguineous marriage referred to our institute as severe persistent asthma. History revealed that the child had progressively worsening breathlessness and persistent dry cough not associated with fever but accompanied by weight loss. On physical examination, there was growth failure, respiratory distress, clubbing, hepatosplenomegaly, and occasional rhonchi. Blood gas revealed hypoxemia which improved with oxygen administration. Plain X-rays and high-resolution computed tomography of the chest showed perihilar alveolar infiltrates and patchy consolidation. The clinicoradiological features did not support a diagnosis of asthma but favored interstitial lung disease (ILD). Bronchoalveolar lavage was performed as a first-tier investigation. It showed periodic acid–Schiff-negative foamy macrophages. The clues of consanguinity, visceromegaly, ILD, and foamy macrophages in the bronchoalveolar fluid prompted consideration of lysosomal storage disorders as the likely etiology. Gaucher disease and Niemann–Pick disease A/B were ruled out by enzyme estimation. Niemann–Pick disease type C was suspected and confirmed by detecting a homozygous mutation in the NPC2 gene. This case serves to caution physicians against labeling breathlessness in every toddler as asthma. It emphasizes the importance of searching for tell-tale signs such as clubbing and extrapulmonary clues which point to a systemic disease such as lysosomal storage disorders as a primary etiology of chronic respiratory symptoms.
Primary Sjogren's syndrome presenting as hypokalemic paralysis: A case series p. 128
M Goroshi, S Khare, T Jamale, NS Shah
Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) primarily involves exocrine glands, and renal tubular acidosis (RTA) is seen in one-third of the cases. RTA with hypokalemic paralysis as a presenting feature of pSS is described in few case reports in literature. We report 13 cases who presented as hypokalemic paralysis, and on evaluation were diagnosed to be pSS, as per the diagnostic criteria laid by the Sjögren's International Collaborative Clinical Alliance (2012). All patients were female, with a mean age at presentation being 33.1 ± 8.22 years (range, 25–48 years). Eleven patients had a complete distal RTA and two patients had incomplete distal RTA at the time of presentation. 62% (8/13) of patients had no signs and symptoms of exocrine gland involvement. All the cases were managed with oral alkali therapy, and six patients received additional immunomodulating agents. No improvement in renal tubular dysfunction (in the form of a reduction in the alkali dose) after immunomodulating therapy was observed over a mean follow-up of 2.8 years. Renal tubular dysfunction can be the presenting manifestation of pSS. It is important to consider the possible presence of this disorder in adults with otherwise unexplained distal RTA or hypokalemia.
Looking beyond the cosmetic tattoo lesion near the eyebrow: Screening the lungs p. 132
F Fatemi Naeini, M Pourazizi, B Abtahi-Naeini, A Saffaei, F Bagheri
Cosmetic tattooing has become a risk factor for several adverse reactions related to inks, procedures, and associated clinical conditions. Development of a sarcoid reaction to the inserted tattoo pigment in the skin is not common. We report a 45 year-old patient with history of dyspnea and mild cough since two years who had subsequently developed reddish, scaly lesions in her 15-year old tattoo done near her right eyebrow. Skin biopsy of the tattoo lesion revealed cutaneous sarcoidosis which led to further investigations and a diagnosis of pulmonary sarcoidosis. The present case highlights the fact that cutaneous sarcoidosis can develop in a long-standing tattoo. Also such a patient should be screened for systemic sarcoidosis disease.
Native valve endocarditis caused by Kocuria rosea complicated by peripheral mycotic aneurysm in an elderly host p. 135
P Gunaseelan, G Suresh, V Raghavan, S Varadarajan
Infective endocarditis still remains a dreaded illness among treating physicians because of the disease course, its need for meticulous antibiotic management, complications, and overall morbidity. Peripheral mycotic aneurysms are a rarely reported complication of infective endocarditis. Mycotic aneurysms occur in about 5%–10% of cases of infective endocarditis, and most of them involve the intracranial vessels. Here, we report a case of native valve endocarditis in a 74-year-old man caused by Kocuria rosea. He presented with septic shock and acute kidney injury. His illness was complicated by a right popliteal artery mycotic aneurysm. He was treated with intravenous ceftriaxone and vancomycin. The mycotic aneurysm needed aneurysmectomy and anastomosis with a graft.

Bisti Fuels selected as contract miner for NTEC's Navajo Mine in New Mexico
Navajo Transitional Energy Company has signed a 15-year deal for North American Coal subsidiary Bisti Fuels to be the contract miner at the Navajo Mine in New Mexico.
BHP Billiton New Mexico Coal currently operates the mine will and exit operations when its contract expires at the end of 2016.
Navajo is a surface coal mine located within the Navajo Nation near Fruitland, San Juan County.
Production from the mine is expected to be around 5.9 million tonnes of coal per annum.
NTEC has also signed a separate agreement to sell the coal produced from Navajo to the third-party owners of the nearby Four Corners Generating Station.
NTEC CEO Clark Moseley said: "We are proud to bring in an experienced coal mining company to Navajo Mine. Given the unique structure of Navajo Mine, we believe that North American Coal is the best fit to meet our contractual duties with Four Corners Power Plant.
"Production from the mine is expected to be around 5.9 million tonnes of coal per annum."
"This ensures the Navajo Nation will continue to receive coal royalties and revenues for the coming years."
Earlier this year, NTEC began the process of seeking a new contractor for the Navajo Mine and received proposals from various companies in May.
Moseley added: "With each proposing company, we weighed our needs at Navajo Mine against the strengths of each company. North American Coal submitted a compelling proposal, which illustrated they could clearly meet our needs."
The Navajo Nation created NTEC in 2013 to purchase Navajo Mine from BHP Billiton.
Following the acquisition, more than 700 jobs at Navajo Mine and Four Corners Power Plant were secured, in addition to more than $120m of annual revenue for the Navajo.

I loved this novel for two reasons: the main characters are original and believable and the plot is well-researched and engrossing.
Minnie is adorable, and there is so much more to her than first meets the eye. She is very intelligent, cognitively as well as emotionally. She is beautiful, but scarred, physically and psychologically, although she gradually overcomes most of her insecurities as the novel progresses.
The same is true for the male lead, Robert, The wealthy and influential Duke of Clermont. A complex and wounded character, who is burdened with someone else's guilt.
It is not a love story dominated by two characters. There are many more, believably portrayed, and we really get to know what makes them all tick.
Minnie and Robert's love story has plenty of dramatic and unexpected ups and downs as they are constantly up against seemingly impossible situations, which they are eventually able to overcome through understanding and forgiveness.
There's also a very realistic and unusual plot, dealing with social and political issues, as well as scientific advances, all in keeping with real events taking place in the Victorian era.
I love well-researched and well-written, historical romances. It is a lot more than just a love story, and there's a great deal of work involved in writing historical novels, as well as the author's creativity.
I know because I also write Victorian fiction, and although I find it liberating to write in another time-frame, I also find it requires a great deal of hard work to immerse the reader in another distant, world.
You can be sure that this novel will transport you smoothly on an unforgettable journey to another time and place: early Victorian England.
I was lucky enough to download a free copy, so I'd also like to thank the author, Courtney Milan for her generosity, and although it's definitely worth paying for, it's free at the moment, so what are you waiting for to download it?
Sounds like something I would definitely enjoy – will add to my TBR list. Thanks for the recommendation!

How does the Moon stay "suspended" in the air? (Intermediate)
Answered by Kristine Spekkens
I'm a journalist, working for a tabloid here in South Africa. I answer a Q&A page, based on general knowledge for this market. One of the questions I received seems so simple, yet nobody seems to be able to answer it. The question was, "How does the moon stay suspended in the air? Why does it not fall out of the sky if it is not hanging from anything?" Now I know that its because of gravity, but I don't know enough of the details of it to answer the question. Can you help?
Your question has two answers: an elementary one and a rather subtle one. The elementary answer stems from Newton's laws of gravity. A complete answer, however, was only worked out by Einstein at the start of the last century.
A the simple answer to "why does the Moon stay suspended in the air?" is this: There is a gravitational force between the Moon and the Earth, that tries to pull the Moon toward the latter. This constant tug on the Moon as it moves around the Earth is called a "centripetal" force. This force is balanced by the "centrifugal" force, that pulls on the Earth and keeps the moon in motion. For a technical description of the (subtle) difference between centripetal and centrifugal forces check out this page. It is the balance between the centripetal and centrifugal forces that keep the Moon in orbit around the Earth.
One can be more persistent than that, however, and this is where the subtlety comes about. Why do the centripetal and centrifugal forces exactly balance each other? Because otherwise the Moon would come crashing into Earth. But why does the Moon not come crashing into Earth? Because the centrifugal force exactly balances the centripetal force. The reasoning here is circular: the simple explanation above provides a way of understanding how the Moon stays in orbit around the Earth, but not exactly why. The why was only supplied by Einstein in the early 1900s.
A more thorough answer to "Why does the Moon stay suspended in the air?" is the following. We think that Einstein's Theory of General Relativity explains the properties of space and time in the Universe. Within that theory, objects with mass curve spacetime in their vicinity, and this curvature influences the motions of other objects. The greater the mass and density of the object, the larger the curvature of spacetime that results. So, the Moon orbits the Earth because the Earth curves spacetime in the vicinity of the Moon. Though the Moon itself curves space as well (since it has mass), the curvature in the vicinity of the Moon is dominated by the Earth, which "tells" the Moon to orbit the Earth, given the Moon's current position and motion in the sky. It is this interplay between mass and curvature that causes the gravitational and the centripetal forces in the first place, and thus why the simple explanation holds.
The difference between the two answers is very subtle, but boils down to this:
First case: - Why does the Moon orbit the Earth? It just does. And you can understand how it does by analyzing the forces on the Moon caused by its orbit and finding the forces pushing in and out are equal.
Second case: - Why does the Moon orbit the Earth? Because the Earth distorts spacetime in the vicinity of the Moon, and causes it to orbit the Earth the way it does and the balance of forces to come out the way it does.

text: Q: Feynman integrals in algebraic geometry In quantum field theory, multi-loop Feynman integrals are basic ingredients of calculating high order corrections. Recently, I have come across the paper A Feynman integral via higher normal functions. It seems that Feynman integrals have some relations to algebraic geometry. Since I am physics-oriented, I don't know much about algebraic geometry. Could anyone provide some explanations or expository articles on this topic? Thanks a lot!

Q: What consumes memory in linux I use atop cmd to check memory usage.
on the screenshot use can I see I have 1gb total, and 300mb free.
how do I found out what consumes other ~700mb?
I tried to use atop cmd, but that doesn't give me much information.

A: a memory leak occurs when a process doesn't give memory back that it doesn't need anymore
so first run top and type > key to sort by memory utilization or virtual memory utilization
you should review how much swap you are using in /proc/meminfo then check the inactive(anon) if it has high value that is bigger than the swap memory then make your swap is greater than it
finally, run free -m to see the memory details
if you find cache is high run the following command

echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches; sync

then run free -m again to see the changes

A: I think glances utility is better suited for this purpose. It is more user friendly and provides various options for real time server stats. For more information about the utility, see this page.

Free Press sports writers Drew Sharp and Dave Birkett discuss the penalties, injuries and more from the Lions' 16-15 loss to the Titans on Sunday, Sept. 18 at Ford Field. Video by Carlos Monarrez, DFP.

Perrish Cox was having what he readily admits was an atrocious day.
He missed tackles and blew coverages, got called for pass interference in the end zone, and was even trucked in the open field by, of all people, Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford.
But when Stafford trotted onto the field for one final drive and what everyone at Ford Field thought was going to be another dose of late-game heroics, Cox redeemed himself and sent the Lions to a crushing loss to the Tennessee Titans in their home opener, 16-15.
►Seidel: Lions lose game, several players despite Stafford's gritty effort
►Sharp: Blame Teryl Austin's defense for Lions loss to Titans
►Related: 'Ridiculous' penalties doom Lions
►Related: Lions besieged by injuries during loss to Titans
►Related: Lions cheerleaders make debut at home opener
The Lions blew a double-digit second half lead for the second straight week, but this time couldn't rally back for the victory as Cox intercepted a Stafford pass intended for Eric Ebron with 18 seconds left.
"Guy made a good play," Stafford said. "Obviously, hindsight's 20-20. I wish I wouldn't have thrown it."
Stafford's interception, just his third since the midpoint of last season, was the final blow in a slop-filled lost that evened the Lions record at 1-1 heading into a crucial two-game road swing against NFC North rivals the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears.

The Lions committed for 17 penalties for 138 yards, their most since a 2005 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, and had no answer for Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota in the fourth quarter.
Mariota led the Titans on a game-winning 13-play, 83-yard touchdown drive that that covered nearly 6 minutes late in the fourth quarter.

He completed all nine of his passes for 74 yards on the drive (and a 10th that was nullified by penalty), and threw a perfectly-placed 9-yard touchdown to Andre Johnson over the head of Tahir Whitehead with 1:13 to play.
"(We) went out there and he said, I said, 'Let's go win. Let's go win the game right here on this drive,' and nobody blinked," Titans coach Mike Mularkey said. "Those guys just hung together on the sideline. There's never a waiver of woe, blaming people for things. They stuck together and gave us a chance all the way to the end."
The Lions, who drove 50 yards in four plays for the game-winning field goal to beat the Indianapolis Colts last week, started their final drive Sunday at the 25-yard line with 1:40 on the clock.
But Stafford threw incomplete on first down, rookie left tackle Taylor Decker got beat for a sack on second down, and three plays after Ebron made a miraculous one-handed catch for a first down, Cox baited Stafford into his interception.

He jammed Anquan Boldin at the line of scrimmage, then dropped off into coverage and stepped in front of a poor throw by Stafford to seal the victory.
"I wasn't going to miss that one," Cox said. "I wasn't going to miss that opportunity, and I'm just glad I came out and helped my teammates get the victory."
Stafford completed 22 of 40 passes for 260 yards Sunday with one touchdown. He was sacked four times, and the Lions shot themselves in the foot offensively with several penalties.
Ameer Abdullah, who left the game in the second quarter with a foot injury, had a touchdown run called back on a holding penalty by Ebron.
Stock watch: 3 Detroit Lions who helped, hurt themselves vs. Titans
Ebron drew a questionable pass interference flag to negate his own 1-yard touchdown catch in the second quarter, and Boldin had a touchdown called back one play later on a hold by Laken Tomlinson.
The Lions scored their only touchdown of the game a few plays after Abdullah's run was called back, but they were forced to settle for a Matt Prater field goal after the Ebron and Tomlinson penalties.
Lions coach Jim Caldwell called the amount of penalties on his team "ridiculous."
"I'm not certain it was (a lack of) discipline," Caldwell said. "There were a variety of penalties that happened out there. Maybe it's just guys are trying a little bit too hard in certain situations, but there were enough to go around there's no question about that."
Along with Abdullah, the Lions, who opened the scoring Sunday on a safety by Devin Taylor, lost starters Ziggy Ansah (ankle) and Kyle Van Noy (calf) to injuries. Antwione Williams, who started at linebacker in place of an injured DeAndre Levy, also left the game with a thigh injury.
Caldwell declined to offer a meaningful status update on any of his injured players after the game.
Marvin Jones had eight catches for 118 yards for the Lions, who had 137 yards rushing as a team.
Mariota was 25 of 33 passing for 238 yards for the Titans, who tied for the worst record in the NFL last year.
"I'm just disappointed in the fact that we didn't play well," Caldwell said. "The record will take care of itself as you play it out. We just didn't play well enough – we didn't play well enough to win. … We played just like right where we should be. You don't get lucky in this game."

The Department of IT was founded in 2012. It is part of the College of Science and Technology, Nanhua University. The curriculum designing practice-oriented. The purposes are through series, professional practice course in training students with the skills needed to join the industry immediately. To achieve the purpose of "graduating equals starting a career".
Currently, we design five major curriculums, including Digital Technology, Could Computing, Web Design, E-Business and App Design. Each practice courses of major curriculum conform to advices of industry experts, and tie industry needed. Beside of necessary courses, students could according to their own future (industry) plans, choosing different curriculums with series of practice courses. So they can start their career as soon as they graduate.
Employment development: Our goal is training professional students, and who could start their career immediately. According to the curriculum students took, they may engage in work such as: Editor, audio-visual effects artist, Google value systems engineer, Web Designer, website planners, APP programmer, working on APP Marketing Planning Division and network systems engineer, etc.
For further education: Taking advanced studies in IT institutes in homeland or foreign countries.

30 Days of Giveaways: Part 6: Exodus: Empires at War: Book 2.
Part five of the Giveaway is done, so now we move on to part six. As stated earlier, because of KDP scheduling, I had to put Exodus: Book 3 out there first. But for those who devoured Book 1 and were eagerly awaiting Book 2, here it is, Exodus: Empires at War: Book 2. It can be found in the UK here. I was away at a conference through most of part 5 of the giveaway. I really didn't get to follow it along its way. I did my blog and mass sending out across pages. One site nuked me for the effrontery of posting spam, even though I had never seen any kind of posting against it on that site. I was reinstated, but wondered why I was even bothering with them, and quit.
In other news, the Florida Writer's Conference went well. I had interested audiences at both of my presentations, Self-Publishing and Writing Science Fiction. Also sat on the Dredging Up You Darkside Panel with some mystery and thriller writers. One audience member said we seemed like such happy and well adjusted people. If only she knew. Met a lot of people at the daily meals. Our Tallahassee Writers won three first place awards. I didn't win anything, but then I didn't enter anything. It's not really my thing. And I was telling people the whole weekend that I had almost four thousand ratings on Goodreads with a 4.1 star average. Checked it out the other day, and it was actually 5,156 ratings with a 4.12 star average. Woohoo.
And now for the blurb.
They are our worst Nightmare. Unfortunately, they do not go away when we open our eyes.
The Battle continues as two immense Empires fo Toe to Toe, the fate of both species on the line.
The Saga Continues as the Ca'cadasan menace prepares to assault the New Terran Empire. A menace humankind fled across the Galaxy two thousand years before.
Humankind has grown complacent, confident in the victories their fleet has won for them through the last thousand years over numerous alien races. But the Ca'cadasan Empire has continued to grow, and now the massive Imperialistic power has found the hated humans. The Emperor knew this was going to happen, but most of Parliament ignored his strident call. And the Prince Sean Lee Ogden Romanov, third in line for the throne, finds himself placed into a position he had never thought would come his way. The fate of the Empire may rest on the abilities of one young man, and his skills at navigating the maze of Imperial politics amidst a war of extermination. Book two of the popular Exodus Series.
Next up: The Florida Writer's Conference, or My Time Among the Normies.

The Non-Importance of Sadness
She said - Ok, so you're not ready to forgive. And closed the door.
He waited, she would come back eventually.
When she did, he said - It's not about forgiveness, there's nothing to forgive. Choices were made, stuff was said, time moved on.
She said – It's not the people, it's the situation.
He said – it hurt.
She said – I know.
He said – It still hurts, that's all.
She said – you want it to hurt.
He said – I don't , I want it to be like it was before.
She said – it is.
He said – no, it isn't, it won't be until new choices are made and stuff is done.
She said – your annoying.
He said – I don't mean to be, it's something to do with complicity.
She said – how?
He said – and trust.
She looked at him, she decided to listen.
He said – there was love.
She said – there still is.
He said – maybe love is too big a word, but there was trust and complicity.
She said nothing.
He said – they didn't trust me completely, I would have trusted them all the way.
She said – so?
He said – so our complicity was broken.
She said – If there was complicity.
He said – I think there was.
She said – maybe there still is.
He said – maybe, it would be nice.
She said – make it happen.
He said – I can't.
She said – why not?
He said – we have to be together, we aren't, so there is no complicity.
She said – I don't know if I understand.
He said – If we are together, it won't be the same, not at first.
She said – so it hurts?
He said – yes.
She said – do you like it?
He said – I don't think about it.
She said – clearly you do.
He said – I'm sad, but it doesn't matter.
She said – listen to what you are saying.
He said – It's no longer important.
She said – That's sad.
He said – that's what I said. But for now it's not important.

Are you are looking for a way to unblock Bilibili in Syria? Great, you have landed in the right place. In this article, we are highlighting three best ways how to watch Bilibili in Syria. Moreover, you will find out what is bilibili.com and why it is not working in Syria. Also, you will learn how to connect to China proxy server for Bilibili and get Chinese IP, so you can access bilibili.com outside China.
bilibili.com is one of the most popular video sharing website themed around animation, comic, and game in China. It is offering some of the best videos including music, dancing, science and technology, entertainment, movie, drama, fashion, daily life and even advertisement films not only in China but also around the world. Therefore, many Syrian people are looking for a way to watch Bilibili in Syria.
Why Bilibili is not working in Syria?
Bilibili just like many other Chinese online streaming and TV broadcasting services is restricting its access in Syria and across the globe due to copyright licensing issues. Programs that Bilibili is offering is not licensed outside of China. Therefore, Chinese tourists and residents in Syria can't open bilibili.com in Syria.
bilibili.com checks your IP address and sees that you aren't in China therefore it blocks your access to Bilibili. However, if you are using either VPN, Smart DNS or Browser Extension, you can hide your Syrian IP by connecting to Syria proxy server. It provides you with a new Chinese IP and therefore gives an impression to bilibili.com that you are in China. Thus, you can unblock Bilibili in Syria and any other location.
How to get Bilibili in Syria?
All three tools allow you to hide your Syria IP address and make it look like you are physically in China. We have tested many tools, but not all are working with bilibili.com. Therefore continue reading to learn more about each of the tools that still allow you to watch Bilibili in Syria.
Smart DNS is our top recommendation for opening bilibili.com in Syria. It provides excellent speeds. Therefore smartdns allows you to stream Bilibili content with no problems anywhere in the world. If you are looking to unblock Bilibili and other streaming services from other countries, then smart DNS for Syria is the right tool to have. However, it doesn't encrypt your traffic therefore if you prefer that Syrian ISP and government don't get hold of your online activities then we recommend finding out more about Option 2.
The most common method of hiding Syrian IP address. By connecting to Chinese VPN proxy server, it changes your IP to Syria and hides your actual location. Furthermore, using VPN in Syria provides extra privacy when surfing the web. It sends your web browsing activity through a secure tunnel, encrypting your private data. Therefore, you can access Bilibili unblocked in Syria entirely securely and anonymously.
If using smart DNS or VPN service for easy access to Bilibili outside China sounds like a hassle then you can try out various browser extensions. There are some free and a few subscription-based extensions for bilibili.com. However, Bilibili is aware of many Syrian using it to route their traffic through Chinese proxy server for Bilibili, so often these browser extensions are cracked down.
One of the best proxy browser extensions for watching bilibili.com outside China is Proxymate. Proxymate service works with Chrome, Android, iOS and other operating systems to let you bypass Bilibili blocks in Syria.
If you wish to try out some other web browser extension for Bilibili, then make sure to do your research since some of them can be malicious. Furthermore, they do not guarantee bilibili.com access in Syria.
Why don't some tools work with bilibili.com?
Bilibili knows that there are many tools available to unblock it in Syria and other locations around the world. Therefore, bilibili.com uses some special technology to detect fake Chinese IP addresses and block it. Thus, many browser extensions, smart DNS, and even VPNs are blocked by Bilibili.
Fortunately, the most reliable and trusted service providers have found a way to keep their operations stable and allow Bilibili access from Syria. The best tools for opening Bilibili works also in Switzerland, Taiwan and other places across the globe.
Is it safe to unblock Bilibili in Syria?
The answer to the question whether it is safe to your access bilibili.com unblocked outside China is yes and no. It is entirely safe if you use a VPN for Bilibili. However, if you choose to use SmartDNS or a browser extension, then you may need to attend to Syrian ISP or government in case they find your online activities suspicious.
There are many ways how you can bypass bilibili.com geographic blocks. Yet, most of them aren't that safe if you wish to watch Bilibili in Syria. Therefore, we recommend either going with the option 1: Smart DNS for Bilibili or trying out to unblock Bilibili in Syria with the option 2: VPN for safe and anonymous access of bilibili.com outside China.

The mud flathead (Ambiserrula jugosa) is a species of flathead endemic to the Pacific coastal waters of Australia where it occurs at depths of from  on the continental shelf. This species is the only known member of its genus.

Taxonomy
The mud flathead was first formally described in 1914 as Insidiator jugosus by the Australian ichthyologist Allan Riverstone McCulloch with its type locality given as off Hervey Bay in Queensland. In 1996 Hisashi Imamura proposed the monospecific genus Ambiserrula for this taxon. The genus name Ambuserrula combines ambi, meaning "around", and serrula, meaning "little saw", an allusion to the saw-like suborbital ridge which bears fine serrations. The specific name jugosa means "mountainous", an allusion McCulloch did not explain but it may refer to the ridges on the head.

Description
The mud flathead has a elongate, moderately flattened body with a large, flat head that is equivalent in length to just under 40% of the standard length and large eyes. It has a large mouth too which extends back to the front of the eye, although the teeth are small with the largest being on two patches on the vomer and in a thin band on the palatine.There are typiocally 3 spines on the preoperculum. The suprarobital ridge has serrations with a cluster of small spines to its rear. There is a raw of small preorbital spines. The suborbital ridge has many small serrations, There are two dorsal fins, the first contains 9 spines, although the first is very short may be separate from the membrane, and is short based, and the second has 11 or 12, typically 12, soft rays. The anal fin usually has 11 soft rays but may have 12. The irises have long branched lappets on them. The overall colour is brown to greyish marked with four, or so, wide dark bands on the back, 4 or 5 dark blotches on the sides of head, a wide dark bar underneath the eye, and dark blotching and streaking on the lower flanks. The maximum published length of this species is .

Distribution and habitat
The mud flathead is endemic to Australia, where it occurs on the eastern coast between the Great Barrier Reef northwest of Cape Melville in Queensland south to Botany Bay in New South Wales. It lives in silty and sandy bottoms in estuaries and shallow inshore waters, at deptsh between .

Biology
The mud flathead spends the day buried on the substrate and is thought to feed mostly on other fishes.

Fisheries
The mid flathead is mostly taken as bycatch by trawlers.
