I'm having trouble in my setup to proper sync the changes.
Sometimes changes in device A is not automatically synced to device B and vice-versa.
After rescanning the folder in the device that made the change it will propagate it to the other devices.
So is a bad thing to set the auto rescan to something like 1~3 seconds?
1-3s is anyway way too low. Even the watching for changes feature has a 10s delay by default. Deletions will even take 1min. So I guess that's just what you are seeing, just wait for that amount of time and it will sync. If not, I'd try to find out why it doesn't work, or if not, then set the scan interval to something like 1min, which is the default without watching for changes.
@vincentardern It is a multi user nevironment indeed. What would be a better alternative to this context?


Neuropathic-like knee pain (NKP) is often reported in individuals with knee pain (KP), but the contribution of specific central and peripheral risk factors to NKP has not been studied previously. The aims of the present study were to determine the prevalence of NKP in a community-derived sample with KP and to identify risk factors associated with NKP.
A cross-sectional study was undertaken (n = 9506) in the East Midlands community among responders (aged 40+ years) to a postal questionnaire. Questions included KP severity (numerical rating scale) and type (neuropathic versus nociceptive) using the modified painDETECT questionnaire, as well as age, body mass index (BMI), significant knee injury, widespread pain, pain catastrophising and fatigue. Multinomial regression analysis was used to determine ORs and 95% CIs. Risk factors were categorised into central and peripheral, and proportional risk contribution (PRC) and 95% CI were estimated using ROC.
KP was reported in 28.2% of responders, of whom 13.65% had NKP (i.e., 3.9% of the total population). Women reported more NKP. After adjustment for age, gender, BMI and pain severity, definite NKP showed associations (aOR, 95% CI) with fibromyalgia (4.07, 2.49–6.66), widespread pain (1.93, 1.46–2.53), nodal osteoarthritis (1.80, 1.28–2.53), injury (1.50, 1.12–2.00), pain catastrophising (5.37, 2.93–9.84) and fatigue (5.37, 3.08–9.35) compared with non-NKP participants. Although only central risk factors contributed to NKP (PRC 8%, 95% CI 2.5–12.5 for central vs. PRC 3%, 95% CI −0.25 to 7.5 for peripheral), both central and peripheral risk factors contributed equally to non-NKP (PRC 10%, 95% CI 5–20 for both).
NKP appears to be driven largely by central risk factors and may require different prevention/treatment strategies.

Knee pain (KP) is a major cause of disability worldwide. In the United Kingdom (UK) approximately 1 in 4 people aged 55 years and over report prevalent KP . KP is often attributed to localised tissue insult that causes nociceptive pain. However, recent data suggest that localised damage to the nervous system and nerve fibres around a joint could result in neuropathic-like knee pain (NKP) that modifies the KP experience . KP can also be modified by central sensitisation following chronic nociceptor stimulation and alterations in central pain transmitting neurons and can result in NKP characteristics . This could be induced by localised insult to the joint, by comorbid conditions or by psychological factors that modify pain physiology and descending pain modulation. However, such modifying factors are rarely studied and are often omitted in clinical assessments of KP .
KP can be broadly categorised into nociceptive (inflammatory or mechanical local mechanisms); neuropathic, involving nerve damage (and potentially involving central mechanisms); and idiopathic pain with no identified cause (presumably driven predominantly by central factors) . Being able to correctly identify different types of KP could have implications for treatment selection and management pathways. KP is the main complaint of knee osteoarthritis (KOA)  and is the primary reason patients seek treatment. As Hadler eloquently wrote, 'Knee pain is the malady, not osteoarthritis' . Furthermore, half of those who complain of KP have no definite radiographic evidence of KOA , and 20% of people with KOA have persistent severe KP even after total knee replacement . These findings suggest that central factors other than severity of local structural KOA influence KP experience and that identifying and addressing these central factors associated with NKP features, particularly early in the disease, could benefit people with such KP.
NKP associates with characteristic symptoms and pain qualities, including burning pain, tingling or prickling, mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia, allodynia, paroxysmal pain and numbness. Although quantitative sensory testing (QST) is helpful in confirming abnormal pain thresholds, this is impractical for widespread use within a community setting . There are a number of screening tools and questionnaires, such as the SLANNS, painDETECT questionnaire (PDQ) and DN4 (Douleur Neuropathique 4), that use descriptions of pain location, intensity, frequency and pain quality to determine whether pain is likely to be neuropathic or nociceptive [11, 12]. The PDQ was subsequently modified (mPDQ) for use in specific areas of the body, such as the knee, with good face and content validity and good correlation with QST signs of central sensitisation [13, 14]. Hochman et al.  reported that one-third of participants with KOA (n = 259) described their pain using neuropathic descriptors and were more likely to be younger and female, with higher pain and osteoarthritis (OA) severity as well as longer OA duration, than those who did not use such descriptors. The research suggests the existence of subgroups of participants with shared characteristics that exhibit NKP symptoms. Should that be the case, targeting treatment to the underlying pain mechanism could have the potential to improve pain management and to improve quality of life with individualised treatment interventions. The objectives of this study were to (1) determine the prevalence of NKP in community-derived people with KP and (2) identify risk factors specifically associated with NKP.
The Nottingham Knee Pain and Health in the Community (KPIC) study is an ongoing prospective cohort study in the East Midlands region of the UK . The current study used baseline KPIC data to identify people with KP and the proportion of those who reported NKP. A case-control study was conducted with three groups: NKP, non-NKP and no KP. The study was approved by the Nottingham Research Ethics Committee 1 (NREC reference 14/EM/0015) and registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02098070).
The survey comprised a community-derived sample regardless of whether subjects had experienced KP. A postal questionnaire was developed on the basis of a review of items in previously published questionnaires [16, 17]. Further details on questionnaire logistics and sample size calculations have been published previously .
According to a NKP prevalence in people with KP of 28% (±8%) based on a Canadian community population sample , a minimum of 85 participants with KP were required to yield a power of 90% with a 0.05 significance level.
The inclusion criteria were all men and women aged 40 years and over, located on their general practitioner (GP) register, regardless of KP status.
Exclusion criteria were inability to give informed consent and presence of a terminal illness or severe mental illness. Eligibility was decided by the GPs in each practice. The questionnaire was accompanied by a covering letter from the GP introducing the study and its objectives. Return of a completed questionnaire in a pre-paid envelope to Academic Rheumatology (City Hospital, Nottingham) was taken as implicit consent.
The questionnaire was constructed to capture detailed information about the participants, as well as their medical history and risk factors for KOA . A validated screening question was used to determine presence of current KP: 'Have you ever had knee pain for most days of the past one month?' [19, 20]. Additionally, a body pain manikin  was used to locate and define pain in other body regions, allowing definition of widespread pain based on criteria proposed by the American College of Rheumatology which require presence of pain in all four quadrants as well as the axial skeleton . The mPDQ was chosen to identify NKP (PDQ scores ≥ 13 as possible NKP and ≥ 19 as definite NKP) . On the basis of face validity of the questionnaire content, previous literature  and consensus among the authors, the data on risk factors obtained from the questionnaire were divided into three groups: peripheral (related to structural changes in and around the knee joint, such as significant injury and nodal OA [which associates with likelihood of structural KOA]), central (related to pain experience and physiology such as anxiety, depression, fatigue, Pain Catastrophising Scale [PCS] and self-reported GP-diagnosed fibromyalgia) and comorbidities (such as hyperlipidaemia, diabetes and widespread pain as defined using the body pain manikin ). Further details on each exposure measured included KP severity, constitutional knee alignment, nodal OA, 2D:4D (index:ring) digit ratio, anxiety, depression, fatigue and pain catastrophising, and high-risk occupations can be found in the published study protocol . Exposures such as 2D:4D digit ratio and nodal OA are recognised risk factors for knee pain and knee OA [1, 13, 15] and were included in order to identify as many possible associations and confounders as possible [10, 13, 14].
Categorical variables were reported as frequencies and continuous variables as mean and SD. OR and 95% CI were calculated using multinomial logistic regression for three-group comparisons (NKP, non-NKP and no KP). Each risk factor was adjusted for the same confounding factors (age, body mass index [BMI], gender and pain severity). Statistical significance was defined as p < 0.05. There were very few missing data at random (e.g., where BMI was not reported by a participant), so imputation or modelling was not undertaken for occasional missing values. All variables were reported as dichotomous data, with the exception of PCS and fatigue scores. PCS was reported as per official cut-offs in tertiles (< 18 [lowest tertile], 18–24 [middle tertile], ≥24 [highest tertile]). Fatigue data were reported using a Likert-style scale and were categorised as lowest tertile (never), middle tertile (seldom and sometimes) and highest tertile (often and always).
The 95% CI of PRC was calculated according to 95% CIs of ROC1 and ROC2. We also calculated ROC curves based on non-NKP as an outcome compared with no KP to determine the PRC of peripheral and central risk factors and comorbidities. PRCs for each of the groups (central and peripheral risk factors and comorbidities) indicate the contribution of each to the outcome of definite NKP. The ROC curves were generated using STATA software (StataCorp, College Station, TX, USA) with the roctab command and combined graphically . All analysis was conducted using Stata IC version 14 on the Windows 7 operating system, and power calculations were undertaken using Power and Precision version 2.1 software (Biostat, Englewood, NJ, USA).
Of the 40,505 mailed questionnaires, 9506 (23.4%) completed questionnaires were returned which met the inclusion criteria. The characteristics of these participants were compared with those from other national UK cohorts (Appendix). The data showed that the KPIC population is representative of the UK general population in terms of age, percentage of women and BMI (Appendix).
Of the responders, 2681 participants (28.3%) reported KP for most days of the past month. Of these KP participants, 366 (13.65% of those with KP, 3.9% of the total KPIC) had NKP. Proportions of 16.6% of women with KP and 11.6% of men with KP reported definite NKP. Women also reported more NKP in almost every age category than men and peaked 10 years later in the age range of 60–64 years than men in the age range of 50–54 years (Fig. 1).
Comparison of the participants in the four categories (definite NKP, possible NKP, non-NKP and no KP) showed that those with definite NKP were more likely to be younger, female and have greater BMI (p < 0.01). They were also more likely to self-report a diagnosis of fibromyalgia, hypertension, hyperlipidaemia and diabetes; report significant knee injury; work in high-risk occupations; present with nodal OA and widespread pain; and have higher scores for anxiety and depression than people without KP (p < 0.001). These results are presented in Table 1.
We compared definite NKP participants with no-KP participants to determine which factors were associated with definite neuropathic-like symptoms compared with no KP. Unadjusted and adjusted ORs (for age, BMI, gender and pain severity) for definite NKP compared with no-KP participants were calculated for each risk factor (Table 2). The results of the multinomial regression analysis comparing NKP with no KP showed significant associations, particularly for central factors such as fibromyalgia (aOR 3.19, 95% CI 1.70–5.98), anxiety (aOR 2.48, 95% CI 1.76–3.48), depression (aOR 2.62, 95% CI 1.70–4.04), highest tertile of pain catastrophising (aOR 5.00, 95% CI 2.68–9.36) and highest tertile of fatigue (aOR 5.11, 95% CI 2.86–9.15) (Table 2). The most significant result for peripheral risk factors was significant knee injury and the presence of nodal OA (1.44 [1.04–1.99] and 1.76 [1.19–2.63], respectively).
We compared definite NKP participants with non-NKP participants to determine which factors were associated with definite neuropathic-like symptoms compared with non-neuropathic-like knee pain. Unadjusted and adjusted ORs for definite NKP versus non-NKP were also calculated for each risk factor (Table 3). After adjustment for age, BMI, gender and KP severity, definite NKP was significantly associated with two peripheral risk factors (injuries [aOR 1.50, 95% CI 1.12–2.00] and nodal OA [aOR 1.80, 95% CI 1.28–2.53]) and all measured central risk factors (fibromyalgia [aOR 4.07, 95% CI 2.49–6.66], anxiety [aOR 3.17, 95% CI 2.38–4.23], depression [aOR 2.99, 95% CI 2.14–4.19], pain catastrophising [aOR 5.37, 95% CI 2.93–9.84] and fatigue [aOR 5.37, 95% CI 3.08–9.35]). There were also associations with markers of metabolic syndrome, such as diabetes (aOR 1.52, 95% CI 1.04–2.23) and hyperlipidaemia (aOR 1.36, 95% CI 1.01–1.84).
The ROC for the full model for definite NKP compared with non-NKP, including central and peripheral risk factors and comorbidities was 0.90 (0.88; 0.92) with the PRC of peripheral, central and comorbidity risk factors as 3%, 8% and 3%, respectively. The ROC for the full model for non-NKP compared with no KP was 0.70 (0.69; 0.72) with the PRC of peripheral, central and comorbidity risk factors as 10%, 10% and 5%, respectively. These ROC graphs are presented in Fig. 2, with further details presented in Table 4.
To our knowledge, this is the first community-based study of the prevalence of NKP and associated risk factors. The main findings are as follows: (1) the prevalence of NKP in this sample of people with KP in the Nottingham community is 13.65%; (2) the prevalence of NKP is higher in women and peaks 10 years later than in men; (3) the risk factors associated with definite NKP compared with non-NKP are knee injury; nodal OA; central factors such as depression, anxiety and pain catastrophizing; and comorbidities such as diabetes and hyperlipidaemia; and (4) although contributing factors to NKP are predominantly central, both central and peripheral risk factors contribute equally to non-NKP.
The prevalence of NKP (13.65%) appears higher than in previous questionnaire-based population-wide studies (8.0–8.9%) [25–27]. However, these previous studies defined the prevalence of NKP in the general population, not in a KP population specifically. Conversely, prevalence in our study is also lower than in studies that have reported NKP in symptomatic KOA populations (23%) . This may be because of factors such as different people at risk (KP versus KP plus structural KOA), various definitions of NKP, and sample sizes. In addition to requiring radiographic changes, six of the nine studies in this systematic review used hospital-based samples where more severe cases were included, probably explaining their higher prevalence estimate .
Individuals with NKP were more likely to be women and obese (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2) than those without NKP. This accords with previous prevalence studies [29, 30] reporting higher overall neuropathic pain prevalence in women of 8–10.2% compared with 6–7.9% in men [25, 31]. The main risk factors associated with NKP are central factors such as depression, anxiety, pain catastrophising and fatigue. This is supported by a composite measure—the PRC—where contribution from the central risk factors to NKP was greater (8%) than that from peripheral risk factors (3%), whereas the contributions from central (10%) and peripheral (10%) risk factors to non-NKP were equal. It is well known that psychological factors such as depression can influence pain perception and behaviour . It is possible that KP, which contributes to functional limitations, fatigue and possible sleep disturbance, may in turn contribute to lower mood, increased anxiety and worse pain and functional scores, resulting in a complex inter-relationship [33, 34].
This study also showed that fibromyalgia and widespread pain were highly associated with NKP in the community when compared with non-NKP and were still significantly associated, but to a lesser extent, when compared with no-KP participants. Fibromyalgia is often considered a predominantly central 'top-down' disorder driven by psychological distress, sleep disturbance and symptoms of anxiety and depression , whereas those with neuropathic symptoms have a 'bottom-up' disorder driven by peripheral changes and neurogenic damage . The association reported in this study indicates the overlap between these two conditions that share mechanisms of central sensitisation, but causation cannot be established in a cross-sectional study.
Our study also demonstrated that diabetes associates with NKP compared with non-NKP, but not when compared with the no-KP group. Although we did not differentiate type 1 and type 2 diabetes, it is plausible that the metabolic syndrome underlies the onset and progression of neuropathy and obesity, and its consequences are potential driving adverse factors that propagate altered nerve functioning and injury .
There are several clinical implications of this project. Whilst KP has often been treated primarily with frontline analgesic agents, the effect sizes for these drugs are small and do not improve over time . This study supports previous findings [39, 40] that there is a neuropathic component to KP that is predominantly driven by central pain sensitisation processes or, more specifically, central risk factors. Considering that the findings that there is a strong contribution and association of central factors such as depression, anxiety and pain catastrophising to definite NKP, these need to be managed correctly in the KP patient population and early stages of the OA process.
There are several limitations to this study. Firstly, the use of self-reported questionnaires might involve recall bias and possible misclassification of self-reported outcomes. Nevertheless, we used a validated questionnaire and involved patient and public volunteers to help optimize clarity and ease of questionnaire use. Secondly, the low response rate (24%) could have resulted in selection bias because those with KP may be more motivated to participate. However, a comparison of KPIC demographic data was made with other local and national UK community cohorts (Appendix), which demonstrated comparability in terms of age, gender distribution and BMI. Thirdly, whilst the questionnaire covered a spectrum of risk factors associated with KP and NKP, we did not measure smoking status, education level or alcohol consumption at baseline. Similarly, we did not have measures of all potential peripheral risk factors (e.g., radiographic OA scores, synovitis and muscle strength). These have minimised the PRC and do not necessarily reflect the real ratio of central and peripheral risk factor contributions. Further study including more comprehensive measurements of both central and peripheral risk factors is therefore warranted. Furthermore, widespread pain was included as a comorbidity rather than as a central factor because it is widely regarded as such in the literature [41, 42]. However, there are limitations in the understanding of pain physiology, and the groups in our analysis (central, peripheral and comorbidity risk factors) may not be entirely mutually exclusive owing to these overlaps, which is a further caveat to our findings.
In summary, the prevalence of NKP in those with KP in this community sample is approximately 14%. NKP affects more women across all age groups. People with central risk factors such as depression and anxiety and peripheral risk factors such as injury and comorbidities, particularly diabetes, are more likely to have NKP. The results suggest that of the risk factors examined, NKP is predominantly centrally driven, whereas non-NKP is driven equally by both peripheral and central factors. Consideration of NKP characteristics and the balance of central versus peripheral risk factors in individuals with KP could help direct best treatment selection and optimise patient care.

Ducks drop first game in NCAA regional to Iowa
Rance Burger
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. – Oregon's baseball hot streak came to a close, while Iowa snapped a 43-year drought.
Iowa closed out a 3-1 win over Oregon Friday afternoon before 1,963 fans at Hammons Field in Springfield, Missouri, in the first round of the NCAA Springfield Regional. Iowa collected its first NCAA Regional win since 1972. The Hawkeyes (40-16) last appeared in the regional round in 1990.
Oregon entered the postseason having won nine of its past 10 games. The Ducks reached the regionals for the fourth consecutive year and for the fifth time in the past six seasons.
Oregon (37-24) scored its run in the top of the third inning when sophomore Mark Karavoitis scored from third base on a well-hit single to left field from center fielder Austin Grebeck.
The Hawkeyes chased Oregon starting lefty Cole Irvin after five innings pitched. Irvin gave up three earned runs on four hits. He struck out two, walked two and hit four batters.
"I had nothing. My arm did not feel as strong as it has the past four weeks, and I'll be the first to admit that the loss today is on me," Irwin said.
Iowa shortstop Nick Roscetti, 21, could have lived his life a little more than twice over in the time that passed between the 1972 postseason and Friday's historic win. Roscetti drove in two runs by way of fielder's choice plays and scored a run.
Iowa had six hits and stranded 13 runners.
"Not having a win in 43 years in the NCAA tournament, it's truly big for us," Roscetti said. "We just kept with our approach. And I mean, yeah, we didn't get the one big knockout punch – but just trying to do your job putting the ball in play and make them make a play. Hopefully some good things happen, and they did," Roscetti said.
Hawkeyes starter Tyler Peyton (7-4) dropped his season ERA to 3.03 with 7 1/3 innings pitched and one earned run allowed on seven hits. The two-way standout helped his cause with his bat by collecting a hit, a run and two walks.
"There were nerves around the team, but they went away right away it seemed like. We just went out there and played our game," Peyton said.
Relief pitcher Nick Hibbing earned his eighth save of the season. He collected Iowa's last five outs, struck out one and scattered three hits.
Rain poured on Springfield shortly after Iowa picked up its final out on a running grab by Kris Goodman in deep left field. The downpour forced the postponement of the corresponding semifinal in the Springfield Regional.
Top seed Missouri State (45-10) faces MAAC champion Canisius (34-28) at 10:05 p.m. The loser plays Oregon immediately after at 2:05 p.m., while Iowa has the luxury of waiting until 6:05 p.m. to play any one of the three teams remaining in the regional bracket.
The schedule offers Oregon little time to form a game plan, but junior left fielder Phil Craig-St. Louis said the same spirit that led Oregon to win nine of its last 10 games, including two of three against top overall seed UCLA.
"We have a bunch of fighters," Craig-St. Louis said. "We're going to get to the next pitch. It could be our last game, so we're going to play like it."

Zarghuna Kargar, an Afghan woman now living in London, grew up in war-torn Kabul before she and her family fled to Pakistan shortly before the Taliban took power. In 2001 Zarghuna moved to the UK to begin a new life. Working on the BBC World Service program, Afghan Woman's Hour, Zarghuna was part of an influential project that gave support, education, and encouragement to millions of women across Afghanistan.
Dear Zari by Zarghuna Kargar
The Secret Lives of the Women of Afghanistan
Moving, enlightening, and heartbreaking, Dear Zari gives voice to the secret lives of Afghan women. For the first time, Dear Zari allows these women to tell their stories in their own words: from the child bride given as payment to end of a family feud, to a life spent in a dark, dusty room weaving carpets, from a young girl being brought up as a boy, to a woman living as a widow shunned by society.
Intimate, emotional, painful and uplifting, these stories uncover the suffering and strength of women in this deeply religious and intensely traditional society, and show how their courage is an inspiration to women everywhere.
"A powerful collection of testimonies that depict the struggles and hopes of Afghan women. An often emotional and at times painful read, this book is ultimately a poignant celebration of human resilience under unimaginable duress. "
—KHALED HOSSEINI, New York Times bestselling author of The Kite Runner
"1 am deeply touched by these stories...Dear Zari should be read by anyone who cares and wants to know about Asia and Asian women."
—XINRAN
"All the stories in Dear Zari illustrate the suffering caused by deeply ingrained Afghan traditions. But [the women's} bravery and resilience shines through and Kargar touchingly reveals how hearing others' life stories finally gave her the courage to share her own. "
—The Independent


I have sent the images of blisters to YYYY@YYYY . Please refer to those images. E emails I have sent with 3 images in each.
You have chicken pox infection.
I can understand your concern for the rash with blisters over the skin.
After analyzing all the pictures I can get that you have chicken pox infection.
It is a viral infection which manifest itself in form of rash and blisters. It is accompanied by fever and body ache.
I suggest you to meet a dermatologist or a physician at the earliest. In my patients I suggest them to take an antiviral tablet such as acyclovir or Famcyclovir or valacyclovir as per body weight.
Continue with paracetamol 8 hourly after meals. Take light food and take rest of few days.
I hope this helps. I will be happy to help you any further.


"The truth always prevails and is always the best policy. BJP's attempt to win elections through whipping up war hysteria and false claims of downing a Pak F 16 has backfired with US Defence officials also confirming that no F16 was missing from Pakistan's fleet," Khan tweeted.
Earlier on Friday, two senior US defense officials with direct knowledge of the situation told the Foreign Policy magazine that American personnel recently counted Islamabad's F-16s and found none of the planes missing.
However, the Indian Air Force (IAF) sources rubbished US media reports and reiterated that Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman shot down Pakistan Air Force F-16 aircraft 7-8 km inside Pakistan Occupied Area in Sabzkot area there.
The IAF sources also confirmed that radio communication of Pakistan Air Force intercepted by it confirms that one of the F-16s that attacked India on February 27 did not return to its base.
"Indian Forces have confirmed sighting ejections at 2 different places on that day(Feb 27). The two sightings were at places separated by at least 8-10 km. One was an IAF MIG 21 Bison and other a PAF aircraft. Electronic signatures gathered by us indicate PAF aircraft was a F-16," the IAF sources stated.
Last week, Pakistan military spokesman Maj Gen Asif Ghafoor had indicated that F-16s might have been used to hit Indian fighter jets during the aerial combat on February 27. In a statement, he said Pakistan had the right to use "anything and everything" in its self defence. "Even if F-16 have been used as at that point in time complete PAF was airborne including F16s, the fact remains that Pakistan Air Force shot down two Indian jets in self defence,"he had stated.

Review: 'All The Money In The World' Is Rich With Ridley Scott's Craftsmanship
Aaron Neuwirth reviews Ridley Scott's All the Money in the World, a film that challenged itself with a key reshoot and came out on top.
Aaron Neuwirth December 19, 2017 2 likes
When director Ridley Scott is at his best, his films create a sense of tension that not only fits for the individual involved but conveys that feeling on a grand scale. Scott's lesser efforts find his abilities to show process effective enough at building a world but provide little concerning the building emotion. All the Money in the World has automatically become a unique effort from the 80-year old director, as all the news surrounding his lightning-quick efforts to replace a critical supporting role make the film a higher curiosity than it likely would have been as a mere awards contender among others in its original form. Still, while interest may have grown in how this all worked out, All the Money in the World mostly works as an interesting character study of a wealthy man that happens to have a broader focus on the misfortunes his position causes for the rest of his family.
Adapted from the 1995 novel Painfully Rich: The Outrageous Fortunes and Misfortunes of the Heirs of J. Paul Getty by John Pearson, David Scarpa's script functions as a kidnapping thriller with a great ace up its sleeve. While we get the standard focus on the kidnappee (John Paul Getty III, played by Charlie Plummer), the kidnappers, the kidnappee's mother Gail Harris (Michelle Williams) and Gail's advisor, former CIA operative Fletcher Chase (a continually scowling Mark Wahlberg), that ace is J. Paul Getty (Christopher Plummer). Set in the mid-1970s, at this time Getty is the wealthiest man in the world and even with that status, he refused to pay the ransom demanded by a group of mafia-connected Italians looking to get rich quick.
By now you are aware that Plummer was brought in weeks before the film's scheduled release date to replace Kevin Spacey, for reasons involving misconduct that I do not need to go over. This easily outpaces Scott's previous work to fit in more of Oliver Reed in Gladiator, after the actor passed away during post-production. This sort of scramble is unprecedented, and while there is much more going on in the movie, it is a big deal thanks to the way Getty's presence looms over this film as a whole. Plummer is also physically in this film a lot; far more than the 10-15 minute supporting performance I had expected. Getty is essentially the second lead, and as such, the story's use for him informs the direction All the Money in the World takes.
Sometimes playing like a slowed-down effort from Martin Scorsese, when playing to all its strengths, the film does well by the actors involved, in addition to the juxtaposition of exciting turns of events and neat music cues with cold/clinical cinematography. This is especially notable for the scenes involving Getty and his mansion full of expensive art, furniture and random knick-knacks, as well as the business side of the kidnappers. In these scenes, we get a great sense of the period as well as an appreciation for all that's laid out in front of us, whether it's the depiction of a cold-hearted cynic or the violence that stems from the actions of those desiring money.
At 132 minutes, the film does tend to make a bit too much out of some of the proceedings for the sake of developing more sympathy for Gail's struggles to deal with both kidnappers and an incredibly stingy ex-father-in-law. It's not the worst decision and Williams is doing work that's just as strong as Plummer here, but I only need so much to understand this kind of dilemma. The same can be said for repeated scenes involving the struggles of the kidnapped, younger Plummer. While the film attempts to build a relationship between him and one of the kidnappers (Romain Duris), Getty III is ultimately a walking/talking MacGuffin who is more a prize than anything else.
Flashbacks attempt to make more out of the people we see. Younger versions of Gail and the Getty's provide some perspective on why each character acts how they do and the connections they share. I only wish these were dispersed in a slightly better manner. Already feeling a bit slack in pace, it is, again, this attempt to build further drama that rolls the picture back from the sort of kidnapper epic Scott is striving for.
These choices aside, what a relief it is to see an adult drama such as this, with rich performances playing up the plight of these people as opposed to staged theatrics. Sure, many events are dramatized for the sake of an entertaining movie, but nothing ever amounts to gratuitous shootouts and chases. Instead, this is a measured drama capitalizing on the setup for a standard story that takes an unexpected turn do the reticence and grouchiness of the incredibly wealthy Getty. It's fitting to have just seen Plummer as Scrooge in The Man Who Invented Christmas, as he is back at home in this role, turning in some excellent low-key work that I'd defy the showier Spacey to have made more affecting under what looked like a lot of makeup. And as mentioned, Williams is up to the challenge of rising to a man of Plummer and Getty's stature and giving the film a soul.
For all the attention given to Justice League in regards to its reshoots, here's a film that adjusted appropriately. It will be impossible to separate All the Money in the World from its headline-making news for this initial release, but the results are seamless and have led to a film that respects its adult-targeted audience. This is a crime thriller that puts the focus and tension mainly on a mother trapped between the rock that is greed and a hard place that is her son's life in jeopardy. It also happens to feature an essential performance from a man who was never going to be involved and could now garner an award for his troubles. That really is what it means to have all the money in the world and still find a way to further success.

AEOI Chief:
Iran to Honor JCPOA Obligations without US
TEHRAN (defapress) – Head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) Ali Akbar said Tehran would remain committed to its obligations under the JCPOA even if the US decides to leave the international nuclear deal.
News ID: 65875
Publish Date: 09September 2017 - 13:16
"If the United States pulls out of the agreement, but the rest of the countries stay committed -- namely Britain, France, Germany, China, Russia -- then Iran would most probably stick with the commitments to the agreement without the US," Salehi said in an interview with the leading German weekly news magazine, Der Spiegel, on Friday.
Iran and the Group 5+1 (Russia, China, the US, Britain, France and Germany) reached the 159-page nuclear agreement, also known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, in July 2015 and implemented it in January 2016.
US President Donald Trump has called the agreement "the worst deal ever" and repeatedly threatened to scrap it.
Since the historic deal was signed in Vienna, the IAEA has repeatedly confirmed the Islamic Republic's compliance with its commitments under the JCPOA, but some other parties, especially the US, have failed to live up to their undertakings.
Following is the full text of the interview.
DER SPIEGEL: President Hassan Rouhani recently threatened that Iran's nuclear program could be resuscitated within hours if the United States were to impose new sanctions. How serious is this warning?
Salehi: We are continuously assessing if this agreement benefits us, or if the price is too high to stay in the deal. If the United States pulls out of the agreement, but the rest of the countries stay committed -- namely Britain, France, Germany, China, Russia -- then Iran would most probably stick with the commitments to the agreement without the US. But if the US leaves the treaty and Europe follows, then this deal will certainly collapse and Iran will go back to what it was before and, technically speaking, to a much higher level. As a person who has taken part in these negotiations, I wouldn't like to see that happen.
DER SPIEGEL: So far, President Rohani has not been able to deliver many economic successes, largely because the U.S. is pushing Western banks not to work with Iran. How do you intend to surmount this challenge?
Salehi: The US is trying to poison the business environment. It discourages big banks and companies from working with Iran. It is fearmongering. But in reality, they cannot accomplish much. There is a lot of rhetoric, yes. If the US turns those words into real action, we will then have to face a very different situation.
DER SPIEGEL: What does this mean?
Salehi: If the US is refusing to waive the sanctions connected to the nuclear activities of Iran, it would be significant noncompliance on their side.
DER SPIEGEL: If the US quits and others follow, Iran would go back to developing its nuclear program, but also to a nontransparent, black-market economy. It would once again be isolated and in a constant struggle with the Western powers.
Salehi: That is almost true. As I said, if the nuclear agreement is breached, economically we would face some difficulties, but politically we would be gaining. We would tell our youth, don't trust them anymore, we tried once and showed flexibility to reach a nuclear agreement. The International Atomic Energy Agency has acknowledged our full compliance with this treaty, but the Americans broke the deal. Don't forget, the isolation which was imposed on us also brought us together as a nation and forced us to stand on our own feet. In addition, in the field of scientific achievement we have made it to the top of the list. I think our partners in this treaty have more to lose than we do.
DER SPIEGEL: What do you mean?
Salehi: If the nuclear agreement collapses, there will be no chance for a settlement of North Korea's nuclear issue. Pyongyang would say, well, they broke the nuclear deal with Tehran, how can we trust them? It would also undermine the integrity of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. There will be a tsunami of outrage coming from all countries interested in developing peaceful nuclear technology.
DER SPIEGEL: As you know, the problem with Iran wasn't the peaceful use of nuclear technology, but rather the aspirations to build an atomic bomb. Some weeks ago, Iran tested a new ballistic missile. Is this wise timing amid growing tensions?
Salehi: If the US considers this an issue, then it is their problem. Nowhere in the nuclear agreement does it say that Iran does not have the right to develop its missile capacity. We are exercising our rights and it is the other side that is trying to interpret this as a provocative act. Every day for the last 38 years, we've dealt with the U.S. or other countries issuing different accusations against Iran. One day we are not "democratic enough," the next day it is about "human rights" or "false elections.
DER SPIEGEL: Isn't there some truth in that?
Salehi: There are countries in the region which have no elections at all, nor basic rights for their citizens -- where, for example, women can't even drive. But because they are in the political orbit of the West, especially the US, they are being left alone.
DER SPIEGEL: How does Tehran view the US president's close cooperation with Saudi Arabia?
Salehi: From what I have gathered, the US is in a state of confusion. Even the European allies of the US do not know which strategy President Trump is pursuing. This confusion is not directed against us alone, but it has negatively impacted the US administration's governance and its allies in the region. For example, recently Qatar.
DER SPIEGEL: Although the emirate is home to the US's most-important military base in the Persian Gulf, Donald Trump allowed a Saudi Arabia-led group of states to isolate Qatar.
Salehi: Suddenly you wake up and you find out that Qatar has been cut off from the military alliance of the Persian Gulf States, the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council. I really can't say that Qatar was a friend. In the case of Syria and in other regional conflicts it has always been on the other side. But now we are providing them with access to airspace, access to the sea and roads, because we are their only outlet. True political practice requires wisdom and a rational approach. That is why we are making these concessions to Qatar.
DER SPIEGEL: This could make Saudi Arabia's leaders even more furious. They already see themselves as surrounded by Iran.
Salehi: I lived in Saudi Arabia for four years, I know many of their officials. We always had our different views, but also enjoyed a relatively good relationship in different domains, such as economics, trade and tourism -- visitors from Iran going to Saudi Arabia and vice versa. The Iranians do not have any designs on the land or the wealth of others. We have our own ample gas and oil, and vast land.
DER SPIEGEL: Despite that, the relationship between Riyadh and Tehran appears to be broken.
Salehi: After King Abdullah passed away and the new king took on his role, the relationship deteriorated swiftly. Mostly because of the preposterous illusion that Iran has surrounded them. Under this illusion, they want to conquer Yemen to create an opening, but they just dug themselves into a deeper hole and don't know how to get out again.
DER SPIEGEL: It doesn't look like Iran is willing to do much to help them to out of this situation.
Salehi: As our officials have stated, we are ready and willing to help. But Saudi Arabia needs to come to understand the realities on the ground, and I think they will eventually change course and even come to the realization that Iran can be a good, trusted friend. When I took on my responsibility as foreign minister seven years ago, Saudi Arabia and Turkey had been my first priority. Together with Iran, these three countries can bring security and stability to the region. I personally would very much like to see our relationship with Saudi Arabia be back to what it was before and even better.
DER SPIEGEL: Why do you think so few of your political counterparts believe you?
Salehi: Look at it rationally: If we have a good relationship with Saudi Arabia, we benefit on many levels, economically and in trade, because our lifeline is the Persian Gulf. How can we secure the situation in the Persian Gulf? Only if these countries come together in mutual agreement.

The future of banking is about engaging with consumers in the digital ways they expect. Voice-activated banking will be a big part of that, as consumers use voice assistants at home, at work, in cars and on mobile devices. But don't focus too narrowly on one or two use-cases, because conversational engagement has far-reaching potential.
Conversational banking has arrived, going by names such as Erica, Alexa, and Luvo. Whether the technology will be implemented is no longer the question. To what extent consumers will use it is what's been up for debate.
Until now, the discussion has mostly focused on whether people have an interest in checking their credit card and checking account balances using the Amazon Alexa or Google Home. But the problem is … the discussion is too narrowly focused. It doesn't take into consideration where the future is leading the banking industry.
Voice-to-voice interactions with a chatbot are still novel, and they're certainly useful, but they're only the beginning. AI innovators are far more visionary. They're working day in and day out to ensure that the future of the technology is expansive. They intend for it to be in flow with a consumer's everyday life.
Conversational banking will become one component of overall conversational engagement that will be ingrained in our daily routines. Voice banking is not about Alexa or Google Home; it's about everything from cars to watches, televisions, hotel rooms and homes.
The Amazons, Googles and Apples of the world are now laying the foundation for our everyday reality to be shaped by continual voice interactions with vast new technologies. Each wants to be the operating system for your life … and banking will play an important component of this future.
Today, data on our identities, preferences and behaviors is often confined to our chosen digital assistant device. And we can't pick a name for our trusty aide, because its activation phrase can't be changed beyond a couple options.
A far more compelling future is one in which you'll be able to name and interact with personalized intelligent assistant services under the name that you choose — whether that's "Jeeves" or "Sally"— regardless of where you are, thanks to multi-modal authentication and cloud access to your data. The conversational voice engagement of tomorrow will be software-based, rather than device-dependent.
In a decade, the dots in our world will be connected by virtual assistants; banking and payments will naturally need to play a part.
Two-way voice interactions are a stepping stone toward multi-modal interactions. Soon, voice banking will not be limited to asking for something and being given a verbal response by a single device.
Imagine directing your personal virtual assistant to do something for you, such as create a report that will be emailed to you within seconds. And your own cyber sidekick will be able to take actions in the context of your overall conversational engagement, mindful of your past behavior and where you physically are. Think of the immersive intelligent assistant experience in Star Trek … the computer presents information via voice or on-screen based on the "context of you" — location, content type, and historical preferences.
How does all of this happen? Multi-device triangulation … and equally as important, multi-modal authentication. Authentication will not be limited by the need for a user to speak, which will improve the consumer experience. A consumer's behavior, location, devices and other biometrics will all be considered by the intelligent, AI-based platform.
Imagine wearing a watch that allows your virtual personal assistant to recognize your unique biometric pulse. Multi-modal authentication will not only enhance security, but it will be seamless across devices, ensuring convenience for the end user. We need to help consumers understand that the device is not the security issue; the cloud computing platform is what technologists are working tirelessly to fortify.
In the future, conversational voice banking will include far more than interacting with your financial accounts on a one-to-one basis. Having your banking and payment info accessible to your personal virtual assistant will make it possible for you to easily pay, subscribe, buy, reserve, and more — to complete almost any transaction that requires your debit or credit card info.
Want to make a reservation at that fancy restaurant that requires a deposit? Tell Jeeves to handle it. He can do so without your help, thanks to your card info being linked to your secure profile.
The new major battleground for the Silicon Valley giants will focus on capturing your loyalty to their suite of conversational engagement technologies and services. These companies will be competing for your business across the board. Who wins the battle hinges on which set of products delivers the most convenience.
So, yes: Voice-to-voice is cool, but don't view conversational banking in a vacuum. Banks, credit unions and card companies adopting the technology today aren't simply wowing customers … they're preparing for voice banking's place in the future. Get ready – money making the world go 'round is about to go virtual.

Owned along with Caf� de la Presse and two other restaurants, this top shelf seafood dining establishment is considered among the best restaurants in SF. Inside there's a square floorspace with tables and a bar along the side - nothing special. At the end of the bar is a three-group Elektra Extramaxi where they pull espresso shots from single serving pods from La Colombe. The resulting cup comes with a flat, very thin medium brown crema - the sort of thing you'd expect from old, pre-ground coffee. However, there's a certain weight to the coffee on the tongue. So it passes for more than just a typical knock-off restaurant espresso. With a smooth, and mostly dull, flavor of cloves and herbs. They also use the pods for their latte and cappuccino servings, which tend to run dry and airy on the milk froth.

MacKenzie Bezos pledges half her fortune to charity
PTI Last Updated: May 29, 2019 | 04:56 IST
New York, May 28 (AFP) MacKenzie Bezos, soon-to-be ex-wife of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, will donate half her fortune to charity, joining the ranks of the world's ultra-wealthy philanthropists, the Giving Pledge announced Tuesday. The charitable organization, founded in 2010 by Warren Buffett and Bill Gates, listed Bezos among 19 new signatories from China, Switzerland, the United Arab Emirates and Britain as well as the United States. Bezos in April instantly became one of the world's wealthiest individuals, gaining a net worth estimated at USD 36 billion after finalizing the terms of her divorce with Jeff Bezos, the world's richest man. "In addition to whatever assets life has nurtured in me, I have a disproportionate amount of money to share," MacKenzie Bezos said in a letter announcing that she was joining the pledge. "My approach to philanthropy will continue to be thoughtful. It will take time and effort and care. But I won't wait. And I will keep at it until the safe is empty." As part of the couple's pending divorce, MacKenzie Bezos is to retain 25 percent of the Amazon shares the pair held jointly, equal to about four percent of the company, but surrendered all her voting rights. More than 200 people have now taken the Giving Pledge, including Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, investor Bill Ackman and Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen. Jeff Bezos, whose fortune is currently estimated at well over USD 100 billion, has not taken the pledge but in September announced a USD 2 billion investment fund intended to support homeless families and education in poor communities.

the total reported production of inland fish in India is barely 6.1 million tons.
One may add to this the area under the numerous wetlands in the eastern parts of the country with an approximate area of another 1 million hectares. From the 6 million hectares, the total reported production of inland fish in India is barely 6.1 million tons.
This is about a sixth of what could be achieved if the ponds and tanks were converted from stagnant smelly waters to vibrant production centers of fish.
The scope to utilize small household ponds in eastern parts of the country also appears to be robust.
At a rough guess, the country could be producing 25-30 million tons fish from inland bodies against the current 6 million tons, an annual opportunity loss valued at over Rs 4 trillion.
Why is it that despite this potential gain, inland fisheries production enhancement does not happen?
The reasons can be broadly divided into three classes — resource quality issues; socio-economic issues around the resources; and techno-managerial issues connected with the production of fish.
The resource quality issues pertain mainly to the length of time for which adequate water would be standing in a water body, alternate demands on the same water body and water quality issues resulting from these alternate demands.
Socio-economic issues pertain to usufruct rights over the water bodies; security and length of tenancy when these are leased; and issues of poaching of fish.
Techno-managerial issues pertain to the availability of spawn, seedlings, and fingerlings in time, availability of necessary feed and medicines, access to markets and access to working capital.
Let us look at these three issues and where and how have people overcome them.
In drought-prone areas, ponds acquire an adequate water depth by end of the monsoons and the condition may last till the end of April. Thus fish production would be best done if this entire period were effectively used.
The length of the productive period for wetlands starts from October end when the floods recede and continues till the end of May. Reservoirs are more reliable.
The length of standing water in small household ponds etc. is also a function of monsoons but water in these can be augmented much more easily.
There is a major issue with ponds and tanks in most parts of the mainland in India —these are typically multiple use water bodies.
Humans and animals bathe there, utensils and clothes are washed in the same water and there is also a recreational use since people swim in them and the elderly enjoy evenings or mornings around their banks.
In South India, the tanks are essentially looked upon as sources of irrigation and regulated by the famous office of the neer-katti. These multiple use water bodies, therefore, render themselves unreliable for fish production unless managed well. There often is the nub.
Socio-economic issues arise because a bulk of the water bodies is common or at least public goods regulated by the local self-government agencies.
Gram panchayats govern them if they are smaller than 100 hectares in size and the district level bodies govern them if they are larger.
Guidelines in most states require these governing bodies to allot the fishing rights to the dead or fictitious co-operatives of the fishermen (or other marginalized and Dalit) communities.
In most places, such co-operatives are poorly managed. Since the ponds have a perimeter that could exceed a few kilometers, guarding the pond fish against poachers at night is a tough proposition and seldom acted upon by these co-operatives.
Techno-managerial issues are similar in texture to issues of any commercial activity. There is an imbalance between the number of hatcheries capable of giving quality seedlings and the area in which these may be grown.
Like most other forms of farm activities (backyard poultry, raising small and large ruminants), people are used to treating fisheries too as near zero input enterprises. As such efficient markets for the supply of inputs such as feed have not come up.
The market for fresh fish itself is so grossly underserved that downstream processing is absent for inland fisheries. And there is the universal absence of formal working capital arrangements with banks for funding smooth and efficient fisheries on business principles.
Some interesting but location-specific efforts have shown that the production potential can be realized.
Gujarat shifted from insistence on co-operatives as lessee of ponds and tanks to a public auction and changed the tenure of lease from a single to several years. This created a huge incentive to the entrepreneurs.
This alone increased the production many fold since the private entrepreneur found a way to strengthen the ponds, replenish water when it started drying up, managed the demands for alternate uses by making suitable arrangements that would not damage fish and spend money for protection against poachers.
Cage fisheries in large reservoirs seem to be yielding good results in Jharkhand and Andhra Pradesh.
The massive thriving enterprises of Koleru are a testimony to the ease with which techno-managerial issues can be solved.
What appears important is to recognize that the role of government is basically in designing intelligent lease agreements and enabling working capital supply.
The trouble is, rather than doing that, fisheries departments are bent upon schemes for spending money on creating infrastructure, which then does not function or give subsidies that are often wasted.
Because this sort of engagement makes both the bureaucracy and the ministers in charge feel they are doing something.
Will the government get out of the way in operations, just stick to setting tenancy rules and let fish and fish enterprises grow? On the answer to that question hinges the fate of the blue revolution.

Q: .NET code to record a specific form activity + audio to avi I am looking for some C# code .. or .NET component to record the activity of a form on my screen (not the whole desktop) along with audio, similar to what programs like Camtasia allow to do.

A: The video part is actually pretty easy. All you need to have is a timer running 20 times a second that will save form's canvas to a image files as frames. Then create an animation out of these pictures.
To capture image:
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        tVideo.Start();
    }

    int i = 0;

    private void tVideo_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        String lFile = String.Format("c:\\{0}.bmp", i);
        SaveAsBitmap(this, lFile);

        i++;
    }

    public void SaveAsBitmap(Control aCtrl, string aFileName)
    {
        if (File.Exists(aFileName))
            File.Delete(aFileName);

        Graphics lGraphics = aCtrl.CreateGraphics();

        Bitmap lImage = new Bitmap(aCtrl.Width, aCtrl.Height);

        aCtrl.DrawToBitmap(lImage, new Rectangle(0, 0, aCtrl.Width, aCtrl.Height));

        lImage.Save(aFileName);
        lImage.Dispose();
    }
}

This is just a light sample, of course you would have to add some compression and try to avoid saving the same image twice. Knowing how many images are the same + knowing about the framerate, you know how long to display the same frame.
To add a cursor you would have to keep some variables with mouse x,y and an event on mouse click. And then just add it to pictures.
Of course, this won't work for 3d games inspite of overlay which is drawn after the win32 paints.
For that you would have to go with DirectX/OpenGl/XNA. I think the idea is the same.
For audio, DirectX also.

The patient in front of me took longer than usual. He was young, tired, gray.
Do I look sick? I said to David.
I messaged a friend who was also waiting. Waiting for specialist results. Waiting for answers. Waiting to know if there was a big reason why all these little things wouldn't seem to go away.
They'd not heard anything yet.
An hour later, the doctor called for me. Here we go, I thought.
mere bends in the road.
The door clicked shut. The doctor asked all the usual questions.
Your MRD results are back. They're at -3.15.
My eyes shut. David sat up straight.
That's good, right? David asked.
It was good. They'd wanted me below -3 for years now – and in this equation, a bigger number is actually lower. The past eighteen months I'd flirted with -2.8, -2.7, -2.92, -3.01.
-3.15 is the lowest its ever been.
David and I walked to a nearby fast food Mexican restaurant. I ordered a burrito – because, let's face it, this is a celebratory lunch – and I complained through the whole thing.
The salsa's not hot enough. There's too much cilantro. The tortilla is soggy.
David tried to placate me.
Sorry about your lunch. You want to go somewhere else?
Nope. I'm just happy that my biggest problem right now is this burrito.
As three years of surgical nursing taught me, if you're healthy enough to complain about it, then you're not that sick.
When I got home I realized I'd not heard back from my waiting friend. I checked in – only to find she didn't get such great news that day.
Celebration; grief; heartache – intermingling extremes compete for my attention. Thousands of miles from here, another friend fights for her child's life. Not so many miles away, another loses one she barely got the chance to know.
How is any of it … right?
There's a cry in the distance; its a voice that comes from deep within. There's a cry, asking why – I pray the answer's up ahead, yeah, 'cause I know where I've been.
Ten days before my trip to the oncologist's office I collapsed into one of the hospital atrium couches during my lunch break.
A man sat down across from me, oxygen tank in tow.
Yes, I admitted. I guess the alien green scrubs were the giveaway.
Maternity. I smiled and prepared myself for the thing that everyone says when they discover my specialty.
Oh, that's lucky. You're on the good side of life.
This man couldn't know that that very day was one of the most harrowing of my career. He couldn't know that every delivery has a moment of panic, and some of those moments last longer than others.
He couldn't know that I see far more heartache at the beginning of life than I ever saw at the end.
Somehow, when we know its the end, we prepare for it. But who prepares for the end at the beginning?
Why should those who could be the best parents ever also be unable to conceive? Why should those who have no energy or resources for children conceive so easily?
Why, why,should any baby be lost before we even get the chance to know them?
Even for those who do get their happy endings – who prepares them for what it takes to raise these little people? Who gets ready for the fears and frustrations to follow? Who learns ahead of time how to deal with the people who know more than you, have better behaved kids than you, and who think they're doing a much better job than you?
It takes being a parent to learn all of those things.
We don't know how to grieve with someone until we've grieved ourselves. We don't know how to cry with someone until we've carried the burden of pain alone. We don't know how to encourage until we've been in need of courage ourselves.
We don't know how to celebrate until we understand just how awesome – and rare – good news can be.
We've all got our thing.
I recently reconnected with a friend I'd not seen in fifteen years. I was only half looking forward to meeting her. I wasn't sure we'd have much to talk about. All I saw from her blog and Facebook was happy, perfect, not a care in the world.
Friends, don't believe the lies you see on social media. We all know loss. Anyone who says they don't is lying, boring, or just too afraid to talk about it yet.
oh no, she's going to have to do this horrible thing that I've just done.
She's going to know pain.
it's pain that makes us great.
December is right around the corner. We bundle up and cozy in for what promises to be the busiest holiday of the year. We decorate. We shiver. We smile. We sing. We hum. We add twinkle lights to the darkest days of our calendar.
I am not the woman I was on January 7, 2009.
I know how to cry with my friends now. I know how to celebrate with them too.
We all have our thing – and it's our thing that makes us great.
So dear friends, I cry with some of you now, but I also believe that joy cometh.
I'm already planning that party.
I'm so happy to hear your good news! Yes, everyone does have their thing. That painful thing. When we were in the thick of Bethany's cancer, I used to get very angry at people whose problems were in my opinion mild compared to having a child go through cancer. But to them their problems were just as big and devastating. I realized one day that yeah, their problems are just as big and devastating to them as mine are to me- they're just different. Now i try to be more understanding and not have a, "You don't know what real suffering is". kind of an attitude!

NC State To Develop Next Generation HazMat Boots
RALEIGH, N.C. — May 27, 2010 — The rubber boots that emergency personnel wear when responding to
situations where hazardous materials (HazMat) are present may be functional, but they're not very
comfortable. New research coming out of North Carolina State University hopes to provide a next
generation HazMat boot that meets both criteria.
"We've learned from firefighters and other first responders that the current rubber boots are
slippery and uncomfortable; they'd prefer a leather boot similar to ones they wear during
non-HazMat situations," explains Dr. Roger Barker, professor of Textile Engineering Chemistry and
Science, director of the Textile Protection and Comfort Center (T-PACC), and lead researcher for
this study.
HazMat boots have traditionally been made of rubber so that they can be easily decontaminated
and cleaned. Leather boots, which are more comfortable, have not been used because leather absorbs
liquids – making decontamination a major technical issue. However, with the availability of new
textile materials and surface treatments, researchers at NC State are confident they can develop a
comfortable – and functional – leather boot for use in both fire-fighting and HazMat operations.
"We're currently in the process of creating prototypes of this new HazMat boot. We have been
exploring options like providing a finish to the leather that would reduce chemical absorption,
while making it easyto clean and decontaminate," Barker says. "So we're not just creating a leather
HazMat boot, we're also designing a simple cleaning method to use on the boot that is readily
available to onsite emergency personnel. If they have to send their boots off to a lab to be
decontaminated, the boot is no longer functional."
Barker and his team, which includes Dr. Don Thompson, associate director of T-PACC, along
with Dr. Keith Beck, Shawn Deaton, Dr. Gerardo Montero,and graduate student Ashley Bradham, have
demonstrated the ability of the special leather material to repel toxic chemicals. They are
currently conducting their research in T-PACC's state-of-the-art Man-in-Simulant Test (MIST)
laboratory – which allows researchers to evaluate the performance capability of protective
footwear, gloves, masks and garments against a non-toxic vapor resembling chemical and biological
agents in a manner simulating how those garments systems would be used by a first responder. They
are also testing the prototype boots for comfort, ergonomic function, traction and stability.
"We'll be doing tests by visiting fire departments and getting first responders to wear the
different prototypes while performing activities such as walking up and down steps, on different
terrains, and through a simulated task routine " Barker says.
The research on this new tactical chemical, biological, radiological,and nuclear (CBRN) first
responder boot is funded by an $800,000 grant from the Department of Defense through the Combating
Terrorism Technical Support Office.
After the final prototype has been demonstrated, it will be evaluated and certified to
National Fire Protection Association standards by independent laboratories. Following
certification, private footwear companies would be responsible for manufacturing the final product
and bringing it to market.

With much interest I read your book about autopathy. The book interested me so much that when while reading it, I told to myself what shall I do with my reserve of homeopathic remedies, when I will not need them anymore…Well, it will not be quite so, but it is interesting, which direction homeopathy takes. I did not wait and made myself a preparation of 42.potency from one litre. After 10 days of application it is too early for a valuation, but I have the feeling, that the preparation works well. I have a strange feeling of change in perceiving myself, as it happened to me when I experimented with homeopathy. And since I use it I did not have a headache yet, as was usually the case when I was tired. /…/ it is really good.
I must confess that I am enthusiastic about the "discovery" of autopathy. I took autopathic preparation on 27. April 2005 and my state of health improved (I know of course that it may be too early for validation and that soon worsening may arrive). From the year 2001 I had a persistant cough (mainly evening, morning and in the night and so I did not sleep, starting asthma, allergy to animals, pollen, etc.). Although in the last year it got a little better (homeopathy, herbal medicines and diet supplements), now I feel strong improvement. Mainly in that in the evening my bronchial tubens do not rattle, I can breathe normally and I sleep through the night.
I would like to thank you for your books about homeopathy and also about autopathy. I am 23 years old and have very good experiences with homeopathy. From early age I was interested also in spiritual directions and searched for my own way, which I have found in Buddhism and mysticism. To practice it was difficult though, it required much preparatory psychological work and tidying up, also due to my difficult childhood – and also due to my excessive sensitivity, I have collected many traumas (I am best characterized by the psychology of the remedy Nat-muriaticum) ;o) and so I tried and tried and everything was difficult…I searched for help in all sorts of directions, psychotherapy, essence, kinesiology and finally in homeopathy that was the only thing that brought improvement. But a breakthrough was reading the book Autopathy, a Homeopathic Journey to Harmony and the purchase of the autopathic bottle. I started with the potency of 200, 1000 followed. Some physical cleaning takes still place, etc. but the most important for me are changes kin psychic and mental areas. I got rid of much ballast, I went through a strong crises, in which I lived through almost all my negative emotions and behavior patterns, but it did not take long, approximately 4 days, I tried to work with the given feelings – be aware of them and accept them. The result is excellent; I feel as newborn, I am happy and fulfilled, the meditation is better than ever before, I don't have problems with contacts with people, away is anxiety, etc. I think that autopathy is a great tool for spiritual growth and health, it helped me much. Sincere thanks and I wish you much success in your work and the dissemination of homeopathy and autopathy!!!


People do expect Lyft to generate cash flow within the next 10 years, and then to sustain a mature growth rate of that cash generation. And there are some bulls out there. "There is a path to EBITDA positive [for Lyft] by 2022, 2023," Santosh Rao, head of research at Manhattan Venture Partners told TheStreet.
Santosh Rao, head of research at Manhattan Venture Partners, said one of his main takeaways from the first day of the roadshow in New York was that the company had built a powerful tool for advertisers, so-called taste graphs that use artificial intelligence and machine learning to assess users' interests and serve them appealing content. Manhattan Venture manages some funds for clients that have already invested in Pinterest privately.
Lyft (LYFT , and unicorns Uber, Pinterest, Slack and AirBnB, all seem to be planning to offer shares to the public at the same time. They're "absolutely" trying to issue shares while tech stocks are flying high, Santosh Rao, head of research at Manhattan Venture Partners, told TheStreet; the Nasdaq has risen 20% year-to-date. "After the longest-running bull market, they [unicorns] don't want to get caught on the other side of it." Rao added that "these companies want to get out [and issue stock]" now.
Founded in 2010, Pinterest has set itself apart from social media companies plagued with scandals involving fake news and data sharing. Instead, Pinterest is seen as a more wholesome online location that has tapped into a powerful advertising sector: the female economy, says Santosh Rao, head of research at Manhattan Venture Partners.
Pinterest is attempting to appease disgruntled investors ahead of the firm's $12bn stock market float by offering a seven-year deadline to dissolve its controversial dual share structure.
The company, which is set to list this month on the New York Stock Exchange, has opted to structure its shares to favour the company's founders and executives, and will not offer many long-term investors voting rights after the firm goes public.
Where other social media companies such as Facebook have been embroiled in scandal over the spread of misinformation and abuse on their platform, Pinterest has set itself apart as a wholesome haven for all things crafty and kitsch, typically hosting pictures of knitting, wedding decor and homemade recipes. Santosh Rao, head of research at Manhattan Venture Partners, said the company has carved out a powerful pitch for digital advertisers: the female economy.
As pink confetti rained down on Lyft's founders Logan Green and John Zimmer from the ceiling of their converted Los Angeles car dealership in late March, everything seemed to have gone to plan. The taxi app had just raised $2.3bn (£1.8bn) in a Nasdaq listing that valued it at $24bn, well above what Green and Zimmer had been told to expect just a couple of weeks beforehand. Investor grumbles about the duo's disproportionate voting rights and Lyft's lack of profits seemed to have been ignored, and the company had successfully beaten its arch-rival Uber to market.


The main character of the movie (Pavel) is a young and very successful realtor who conducted many semi legal affairs. Once he gets the task from his uncle – the owner of real estate company, a very unscrupulous and hard businessman. Pavel has to get authorization for selling the old manor. To obtain it he has to ingratiate himself with the owner of the real estate, a lonely old woman living in the family estate. The cunning plan has produced a result and the swindler agent gets this cherished paper and begins to prepare the estate for sale, celebrating his next victory. But it was not there!
Some higher authority intervenes in the course of the events. By nightfall, Pavel experiences rather strange and inexplicable events happening to him, – he somehow begins to move in space directly to the people who have just thought about him.
His customers, former friends, long forgotten relatives, mistresses, strangers who saw an advertisement with his photograph, the so-called "friends" in social networks … But it turns out that just a few people remember him with kindness.

2126 hrs. In a hotel restaurant. It's Sunday night. People are very drunk, very loud. I think they might be recovering from the football game that happened down the street from here.
The last several days have been good but grinding. I have been inside a lot of airports and hotels. The instore appearances have been going great. I have been meeting a lot of very cool people. That's the good part. The lack of sleep makes things challenging but it's ok. Tomorrow evening, I will be in Berkeley for the second to last of these bookstore appearances.
I have had the chance to check out quite a few of the Occupy sites on this trip. One of the things that I found interesting was at the Occupy Portland site was the lack of police present. It could be that I wasn't looking in the right places but I walked around and through all the tents and didn't see any. At other Occupy sites, police were everywhere. Having been to a few of these, I am very interested to see where it will be after the snow melts next year and what will the Occupy issue mean in the presidential election.
Hours ago, I watched Herman Cain interviewed on CNN. He fascinates me. I have never seen someone in such a bright spotlight who is in so over his head. Thankfully, there's nothing illegal or dangerous about what he's doing. It is however, a freaky thing to watch. I wonder if he thought he was going to last a few weeks and then all of a sudden he found himself in the situation he's in and is now going for the improv of his life. He'll have a great story to tell when this is all behind him. Herman Cain is a great example of Democracy in action. He is a citizen of the United States and he's running for president. Fair enough.
