OBJECTIVE: To identify patients with non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) with a low likelihood of any adverse in-hospital event. DESIGN, SETTING AND PATIENTS: Data were analysed from 24 097 patients with NSTEMI or unstable angina included in the Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (January 2001 to September 2007). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: In-hospital events were myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, congestive heart failure or shock, major bleeding, stroke or death. Two-thirds of the patients were randomly chosen for model development and the remainder for model validation. Multiple logistic regression identified predictors of freedom from an in-hospital event, and a Freedom-from-Event score was developed. RESULTS: Of the 16 127 patients in the model development group, 19.1% experienced an in-hospital adverse event. Fifteen factors independently predicted freedom from an adverse event: younger age; lower Killip class; unstable angina presentation; no hypotension; no ST deviation; no cardiac arrest at presentation; normal creatinine; decreased pulse rate; no hospital transfer; no history of diabetes, heart failure, peripheral arterial disease, or atrial fibrillation; prehospital use of statins, and no chronic warfarin. In the validation group, 18.6% experienced an adverse event. The model discriminated well between patients experiencing an in-hospital event and those who did not in both derivation and validation groups (c-statistic = 0.77 in both). Patients in the three lowest risk deciles had a very low in-hospital mortality (<0.5%) and an uncomplicated clinical course (>93% event-free in hospital). The model also predicted freedom from postdischarge events (death, myocardial infarction, stroke; c-statistic = 0.77). CONCLUSIONS: The GRACE Freedom-from-Event score can predict the in-hospital course of NSTE-ACS, and identifies up to 30% of the admitted population at low risk of death or any adverse in-hospital event.

Lenovo unveils new 14-inch ThinkPad T431 Ultrabook
by Slobodan Simic on18 March 2013
A new era for the ThinkPad
Lenovo has turned a new page with its Thinkpad line of notebooks by announcing the new ThinkPad T431 that features no less than 26 design changes that should mark a new era in Thinkpad history.
According to Lenovo, the new Thinkpad comes as a result of an 18-month research and developement process that resulted in 26 major design changes, but it still retains the recognizable look and feel of a good old Thinkpad. Despite the fact that it fits all the Ultrabook parameters, Lenovo wanted to make sure that it is still a rugged and durable Thinkpad that meets the mil-SPEC 8 standard.
Built around a 14-inch 1600x900 matte display with 250 nits of brightnes and the thinnest bezel on any T-series Thinkpad so far, the new Thinkpad T431 ended up with 331x226x20.6mm (13.03x8.89x0.8-inches) dimensions and 1.63kg (3.6-pounds) weight. The rest of the specs include up to 3.3GHz clocked Intel Core i7-3687U CPU, Intel HD graphics, up to 12GB of RAM, up to 1TB of HDD space or SSD option, 720p webcamera, optional backlit keyboard, WiFi, Bluetooth, Gigabit Ethernet and WWAN connectivity options, VGA output, card reader, two USB 3.0 ports and bunch of other expected features including a 47WHr (3-cell) sealed battery.
In addition to a slimmer and more clean design and thinnest bezel so far, the main design change is with the touchpad as the standard and quite recognizable Thinkpad touchpad has been replaced with a new button-less version developed by Lenovo and Synaptics. As you can see it does not feature any buttons, it is quite larger and supports up to 20 different gestures.
The new Thinkpad T431 will be available with either Windows 7 or Windows 8 OS and Lenovo already hinted that we might see versions with a touchscreen in a near future. It will be available as of April with a starting price of US $949.

Home/U.S./Roger Stone: Trump's pardon erased fines along with jail | Trump News
Roger Stone: Trump's pardon erased fines along with jail | Trump News
July 14, 2020 U.S. Leave a comment
The executive clemency of the President of the United States, Donald Trump, with his old friend and adviser Roger Stone, not only commuted the veteran Republican agent's prison sentence, but also saved him a considerable fine and two years of supervised release.
Details of the leniency agreement were released by the United States Department of Justice and Stone's attorney on Monday after the judge presiding over the case asked the Trump administration to explain whether the commutation announced Friday meant that it would not be supervised, as many convicted criminals are released.
U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson had set a deadline for receiving a copy of Trump's leniency order along with an explanation on whether it also commuted the period when Stone was to be supervised after leaving. from prison.
Asked about Robert Mueller's opinion piece,
Trump's press secretary, Kayleigh McEnany, on Fox News. "She had to invent procedural crimes, which is exactly what was done in the Roger Stone case."
Mueller said Stone "remains a convicted felon, and with good reason": https: //t.co/lrKcehZbY6 pic.twitter.com/1degr1jI2g
– Jennifer Jacobs (@JenniferJJacobs) July 13, 2020
In the order, Trump wrote that justice would not be served if Stone "remained confined to his home or served that sentence, and the safety of the community would not be compromised if released from home confinement and granted clemency." .
"I commute the entire prison sentence imposed on said Roger Stone, Jr. to expire immediately," said Trump's order.
"I also commute the entire two-year term of supervised release with all its conditions, and finally, I remit any unpaid balance of the $ 20,000 fine imposed."
The president told reporters on Monday that he was receiving "favorable criticism" for his action at Stone and reiterated his position that the Russian investigation "should never have taken place."
The executive leniency grant Trump signed for Roger Stone commutes his full prison sentence, as well as two years of supervised release and a $ 20,000 fine. https://t.co/2mZF5zA6Wj
– Rebecca Ballhaus (@rebeccaballhaus) July 13, 2020
Stone, 67, was sentenced to three years and four months in prison after being convicted by a jury in Washington last year of swearing by lawmakers investigating Russian interference in the 2016 US election. Stone was found guilty of the seven charges against him. The commutation did not erase Stone's conviction as a pardon would have.
Stone was due to report to federal prison in Georgia on Tuesday.
Stone's attorney Grant Smith, who tweeted a copy of Trump's order, said he speaks for himself in responding to the judge's investigation.

'Speculative mania' to die down, but $ 400k target still


Feeling in control plays an important role in the decision to adopt connected technology, according to a new Finn Futures™ survey conducted by Finn Partners' global technology practice (LANE is a Finn Partners company). The national poll looked at consumer sentiment toward smart homes, devices, and self-driving cars, and found varying levels of excitement and concern for these technologies.
Driverless car or "driverless" vacuum cleaner?
While autonomous vehicles are creating a lot of news right now, consumers are not fully on board with the concept yet.
Excitement for autonomous vehicles is higher among younger audiences. Americans under the age of 45 were more likely to give a response between 6 and 10 (56 percent), with one-quarter (24 percent) giving a 9 or 10.
Interestingly, while data shows Americans are not clamoring to automate the driving experience, household chores are another story – three out of 10 want robots to handle household activities such as folding laundry or vacuuming, making chores the second most desirable smart home feature next to home security.
Americans were three times as likely to cite cost (59 percent) as a barrier to smart home technology as they were to cite privacy concerns (20 percent).
Younger Americans are more likely to cite privacy concerns – 26 percent under the age of 45 cited privacy/security as a concern whereas only 16 percent of people over 45 had the same concerns.
The top concern about self-driving cars was the loss of "feeling in control" over the vehicle (42 percent), followed by worries of vulnerability to hacking (30 percent) and expense (25 percent).
Consumers are interested (70 percent) in allowing their doctors to monitor their health remotely, a trend that increases among younger Americans.
81 percent of those under the age of 45 are interested in learning more about this access technology and sharing data with their doctors.
Smart home has come a long way in a few short years. In 2014, a white paper from the Consumer Electronics Association and Park Associates reported that two-thirds of consumers with broadband are not very familiar with smart home services or products or where to buy them. The Finn Futures survey showed that 86 percent of consumers "are confident they know what it means when someone says they have a smart home" – a huge leap in awareness over the last three years.
77 percent think it will be normal to have a robot in their home within 20 years.
Locks/doors (55 percent), thermostat (44 percent) and lighting (41 percent) ranked among the top three features people would value most in a smart home. By comparison, voice-controlled assistant (22 percent) and entertainment (25 percent) lagged behind.
Demographics matter when it comes to what people would most like to automate in their homes, meaning an internet-enabled device would do it for them. Those with the highest incomes are especially likely to say "home security" is a top priority (40 percent). Younger Americans (36 percent) and women (35 percent) cite "laundry/cleaning" more often, while men are more likely to say "home environment" (22 percent).
The Finn Futures survey, from Finn Partners, was conducted online recently among a representative sample of 1,000 Americans, and is part of an ongoing initiative by the company to assess attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors in public affairs and other areas of critical importance to consumers. The data was weighed slightly to ensure it was representative of the U.S. adult population. Full results of the survey are available upon request.
Founded in 2011 on the core principles of innovation and collaborative partnership, Finn Partners has tripled in size in just five years, becoming one of the fastest growing independent public relations agencies in the world. The full-service marketing and communications company's record-setting pace is a result of organic growth and integrating new companies and new people into the Finn Partners world through a common philosophy.

WBSSC scam: Two companies with Arpita Mukherjee as director under ED scanner
In a new revelation during the probe into the WBSSC recruitment scam, it has been found that Arpita Mukherjee along with another person was the director of two companies that could be involved
IANS Photo
In a new revelation during the probe into the West Bengal School Service Commission (WBSSC) recruitment scam, it has been found that Arpita Mukherjee along with another person was the director of two companies that could be involved in the transfer of the funds.
The two companies had the same two directors but were registered on separate addresses. The point that connects this multi- crore scam with these two companies is the common director in both these companies.
The names of the two companies are Sentry Engineering Private Limited and Echhay Entertainment Private Limited and both companies have only two directors, namely Arpita Mukherjee and Kalyan Dhar.
The sale deeds of the two companies were recovered by the ED sleuths during the raid at the residence of Arpita Mukherjee, allegedly the close confidant and aide of former West Bengal education minister and Trinamool Congress secretary general, Partha Chatterjee in this WBSSC scam.
Both Mukherjee and Chatterjee, currently the West Bengal commerce & industries minister, are currently under ED custody.
ED raided the residence of Arpita Mukherjee at the posh Diamond City complex in south Kolkata and recovered huge treasure in forms of Indian and foreign currencies, gold ornaments, multiple high-end Apple iPhones, sale deeds of multiple flats and documents of multiple high-end vehicles. During that raid, ED recovered the sale deeds of these two companies, namely Sentry Engineering Private Limited and Echhay Entertainment Private Limited.
ED sources said that of the two companies, Sentry Engineering Private Limited's registered office is Diamond City South, Tower-2, Flat No-1A, 1st Floor, Kolkata- West Bengal 700041, which is the same housing complex which houses Arpita Mukherjee's residence.
On the other hand, the registered office of Echhay Entertainment Private Limited is 95, Rajdanga Main Road, LP-107/439/78, Kolkata- West Bengal 700107.
ED sources claimed that they have doubts about both these companies being bogus and being used to transfer the collections in the WBSSC scam to different avenues. ED is currently looking out for the second director in both these companies, Kalyan Dhar. "Once we get him, Dhar will surely give us some vital clues regarding these two companies and how they were used for routing the illegal money to different avenues," an ED official said.
Meanwhile, Partha Chatterjee was brought back to Kolkata from Bhubaneswar early Tuesday morning by the ED sleuths and was taken to the agency's office at CGO Complex at Salt Lake. Arpita Mukherjee is also there and ED sleuths are planning to interrogate them by putting them face to face in the next few days.
Both Chatterjee and Mukherjee were remanded to ED custody till August 3 by a special court of Public Money Laundering Act (PMLA) in Kolkata late Monday evening.

Q: Convert a c# variable to its Nullable form using null I'm trying to return a value of type A? from a method Value. The method returns null conditionally as I'm trying to shield the caller from obtaining a value A in some cases (without throwing exceptions):

public class Container<A>
{
    private readonly A? _value;
    public readonly bool ShouldBeNull;
    public A? Value => ShouldBeNull ? null : _value;

    public Container(A value, bool shouldBeNull)
    {
        ShouldBeNull = shouldBeNull;
        _value = shouldBeNull ? default(A) : value;
    }
}

I would expect the code to compile: the return type is explicitly marked as nullable (A?) meaning the caller can expect the return type to be null. The code does not compile however with error:

Cannot convert null to type parameter 'A' because it could be a non-nullable value type. Consider using 'default(A)' instead.

If I constrain type A to be a value type (where A : struct), the code compiles. But what I don't understand, is that if I constrain type A to be a reference type (where A : class) the code compiles as well.
If this is the case, why does above code snippet not work with no constraints? Is there any way to make the snippet compile with A being either a value or a reference type?
This question was answered in a different form here: How can I return NULL from a generic method in C#?. However, I would like to find why the snippet doesn't work. If the compiler can make the snippet work in case of a value or reference type, why can't it work for both?

Philosophers prove that digital recording is better than vinyl
Microphone and headphones
RedShark replay: There is an argument about digital audio versus vinyl that doesn't seem to want to go away. But I think it should, and there's a good reason why: it's a Category Mistake.
It's often said that digital audio is inferior to analogue because of the sampling process. Absolutely by definition, sampling doesn't record the entirety of an audio waveform. With sampling, you record important blobs, with absolute regularity, but you don't record anything between the blobs.
So, the argument goes, you're missing out important information.
But, digital audio theory tells us that you're not missing out anything. If you sample often enough, then all the information you need to reproduce frequencies that you can actually hear, will be present. Some audiophiles think that there are important harmonics above the human hearing range that interact with each other to create beat frequencies that are back in the audio spectrum but it's always possible to to counter this by increasing the sample rate.
To me, this debate is a false one. We're not comparing like with like. We're not even comparing anything.
For around a century now, we've known that atoms make up the stuff that the real world is made of. Tables, fruit and even you and me: we're all made of atoms and their constituent parts. These atomic and sub-atomic components of matter are incredibly small, and they have - in relative terms - enormous spaces between them. So much so that you could almost argue that there's virtually nothing there. When we look at matter, we're looking at largely empty space.
But that doesn't mean we can store a bookcase inside a sofa, nor that we can walk through wall. Solid matter is solid, without any doubts, both before and after we realise that matter is largely made of nothing at all.
This knowledge will absolutely not save you if you jump out of an aircraft without a parachute, of if you hit your thumb with a hammer. Both are going to hurt. The empty space within matter is not space in the conventional sense. Matter is 100% matter.
So why the confusion?
It's called a Category Mistake. This is a term introduced by the UK philosopher Gilbert Ryle in his seminal 1949 book "The Concept of Mind. I first read it when I was at university studying philosophy. Essentially Ryle argued that the "mind" is not conscious but is instead a collective term for all observable behaviours and dispositions. This, says the philosopher, is an instance of a Category Mistake. One example he gives is of the student who visits a university and says "I can see buildings - lecture theatres and libraries etc - all around me, but I can't see a university anywhere". The mistake is that the university is not a thing in itself that you can stick a label to; it's more a term that encompasses the buildings, the activities within them, and the overall purpose of the university.
So far, so tenuous.
Here's where I think the Category Mistake is in the argument about analogue vs digital.
Sampling is designed to capture sufficient information to reproduce audio accurately. Yes, it's possible to sample audio inadequately, and it's arguable that even CD quality audio isn't enough (although with a potential dynamic range of 96 dB and a frequency range up to 22.05kHz it's way more capable than vinyl, at least in terms of specifications). But it's easily possible to sample more frequently — routinely up to 192 kHz - and with a greater bit depth — 24 bits is commonplace and internal processing can be at a staggering 32 bit floating point; virtually enough to record the Big Bang.
And yet there are those who would say that even at high sample rates and extreme bit depths, digital audio is an incomplete facsimile of the original analogue signal. "There are gaps between the samples" says the argument.
Does this start to sound a little bit familiar? Is't this a bit like the notion that matter doesn't really exist because there are spaces between the atoms?
This is as clear a Category Mistake as I have ever seen. Those gaps are meaningless. You could sample at X-Ray frequencies and it wouldn't sound any better.
Are there reasons to prefer analogue audio over digital? Yes, absolutely. But none of these have anything to do with accuracy.

Telstra CEO David Thodey announces the Adelaide Oval upgrade. Image credit: Adelaide Oval Stadium Management Authority.
Telstra (ASX: TLS) has announced a multi-million dollar technology deal with Adelaide Oval Stadium, which includes the introduction of 1000 IPTV screens and the deployment of 4G.
Adelaide Oval visitors will be able to use the IPTV screens to watch high definition replays, order food and drinks, and keep track of match statistics during sports events, said the telco.
Telstra will also increase mobile coverage in the stadium area and surrounding areas of the oval.
A spokeswoman said the telco's investment in the mobile network capacity upgrade is approximately $7 million. The roll out will be completed by early 2015.
Adelaide Oval Stadium Management Authority chairman John Olsen said a total amount of $535 million has been spent by the Authority on site redevelopment so that the Oval can be used for sports and cultural events.
He said the Oval will now host 44 events each year, which could attract more than 1.4 million visitors.
"This investment allows us to take the fan's experience to another level with significant improvements to the Oval's mobile coverage. Football fans in particular tend to be big data users, so this increased capacity will be great news for the tens of thousands who come to watch AFL [Australian Football League] here every week," Olsen said in a statement.
In May 2014, Telstra announced its AFL Live app for Pebble smart watch users that lets fans receive real time scores and updates through their watch.
In September 2013, Telstra and Seventh Bean developed an app for Google Glass called AFL Glassware for the 2014 season. AFL fans with access to Google Glass can use the app to listen to a live commentary on their Internet-connected headset.


This film, set in 1930, takes you into the lives of a young couple who wanted to get married just as the market crash of 1929 was taking hold in Milwaukee, WI. The original concept for this project was a corporate video for The Tripoli Shrine Center. But further inspiration led us to produce it as a "Film Short" 15 minutes in length. It is written, directed and produced by Jim De Koch and Kurt Cowling. We hope you enjoy this touching love story, filled with drama and even some scandal. Roll 'em.
The Shriners, founded in New York City in 1872, are an organization composed solely of Master Masons. This is an international fraternity of over a half million members belonging to 195 Shrine Centers worldwide.
The Shrine, although known for colorful parades, circuses and clowns, has a more serious side as well. Since 1922, the Shrine has supported and operated a network of 22 specialized hospitals providing expert orthopedic and burn care to children 18 and under, regardless of the patient's or family's ability to pay.
