Pneumonia is acute inflammation of the lungs caused by infection. Initial diagnosis is usually based on chest x-ray and clinical findings. Causes, symptoms, treatment, preventive measures, and prognosis differ depending on whether the infection is bacterial, mycobacterial, viral, fungal, or parasitic; whether it is acquired in the community or hospital; whether it occurs in a patient treated with mechanical ventilation; and whether it develops in a patient who is immunocompetent or immunocompromised.
(See also Neonatal Pneumonia Neonatal Pneumonia Neonatal pneumonia is lung infection in a neonate. Onset may be within hours of birth and part of a generalized sepsis syndrome or after 7 days and confined to the lungs. Signs may be limited... read more .)
An estimated 4 to 5 million people in the United States develop pneumonia each year, of whom about 55,000 die. In the United States, pneumonia, along with influenza, is the 8th leading cause of death and is the leading infectious cause of death. Pneumonia is the most common fatal hospital-acquired infection and the most common overall cause of death in developing countries.
The most common cause of pneumonia in adults > 30 years, in the absence of an ongoing viral pandemic such as COVID-19, is
Bacterial infection
Streptococcus pneumoniae is still the most common pathogen in all age groups, settings, and geographic regions. However, the incidence of S. pneumoniae infection has been declining because of increasing rates of vaccination and development of herd immunity. However, pathogens of every sort, from viruses to parasites, can cause pneumonia. With the availability of sensitive molecular diagnostic methods, there is increasing recognition of viruses as a cause of pneumonia.
The airways and lungs are constantly exposed to pathogens in the external environment; the upper airways and oropharynx in particular are colonized with so-called normal flora. Microaspiration of these pathogens from the upper respiratory tract is a regular occurrence, but these pathogens are readily dealt with by lung host defense mechanisms. Pneumonia develops when
Defense mechanisms are compromised
Macroaspiration leads to a large inoculum of bacteria that overwhelms normal host defenses
A particularly virulent pathogen is introduced
Occasionally, infection develops when pathogens reach the lungs via the bloodstream or by contiguous spread from the chest wall or mediastinum. Another recently identified potential pathway of pneumonia development is dysbiosis in the resident microbiome of the lung.
Upper airway defenses include salivary IgA, proteases, and lysozyme; growth inhibitors produced by normal flora; and fibronectin, which coats the mucosa and inhibits adherence.
Nonspecific lower airway defenses, including cough and mucociliary clearance, prevent infection in airspaces. Specific lower airway defenses include various pathogen-specific immune mechanisms, including IgA and IgG opsonization, antimicrobial peptides, anti-inflammatory effects of surfactant, phagocytosis by alveolar macrophages, and T-cell–mediated immune responses. These mechanisms protect most people against infection.
Numerous conditions alter the normal flora (eg, systemic illness, undernutrition, hospital exposure, antibiotic exposure) or impair these defenses (eg, altered mental status, cigarette smoking, nasogastric or endotracheal intubation, disorders or drugs that suppress the immune system). Pathogens that then reach airspaces can multiply and cause pneumonia.
Specific pathogens causing pneumonia cannot be found in up to 50% of patients, even with extensive diagnostic investigation, primarily because of the limitations of currently available diagnostic tests and the difficulty of obtaining adequate deep lung (alveolar) samples. But because pathogens and outcomes tend to be similar in patients in similar settings and with similar risk factors, pneumonias can be categorized as

Developed according to a logic addressing orientation and noise protection, ground plans for three of the building volumes group multiple units around semi-public and semi-private access areas to the south towards Obsthaldenstrasse, i.e., facing away from busy Wehntalerstrasse to the north. A fourth volume, serpentine in form with five wings, is not only integrated into the slope but wraps around to create a semi-protected inner landscape. For the realization of the volume inserted into the slope, the single building plot format of the surrounding urban context was not adopted, but rather borrowing from the school complex to the east, a continuous overall form was created. Extending throughout the entire width of the respective wing, these apartments are lit from two sides and benefit from their clear placement within the surrounding urban context with views onto the immediate outdoor environment and in the distance.
In addition to these design features, the competition entry also fulfilled the main program elements required by the client, which included: 180 apartments, kindergarten, child daycare center, trade workshops, gas station with shop, and local store on private property.

Late Thursday the U.S. Senate approved federal GMO labeling legislation and moved the bill to the House for consideration. In Vermont, where the first-in-the-nation mandatory GMO labeling law went into effect last Friday, advocates say the federal bill caters to the whims of the corporate food industry rather than actually providing consumers information.
Senators voted 63-30 to move the measure proposed by Michigan Democrat Debbie Stabenow and Kansas Republican Pat Roberts to the House. The bill would allow food companies to label foods with GMO's using words, a symbol or an electronic QR code readable by smartphone.
During floor statements Thursday, Vermont Democrat Patrick Leahy called the measure a farce, and Connecticut Democrat Richard Blumenthal said it was neither practical, logical, nor fair to consumers.
In Vermont, whose mandatory GMO labeling law became effective July 1st, proponents are incensed by the Senate vote.


Americans must make a great push to ensure a moderate justice replaces Sandra Day O'Connor. Like the Bible, the Constitution is a living document whose interpretation the founding fathers meant to evolve in tandem with the progress of our society. The strict constructionists who seem to have a stranglehold on President Bush's judicial decisions think that our nation should remain static in its values and beliefs.
It cannot. Advances in economics, science and an ever more pluralistic populace will not allow it. Culture and its values must evolve with these forces. If a strict constructionist is added to the bench, America's legal fabric will be torn from its everyday realities. The rest of the advanced world may pass us by, making the U.S. a cautionary note in a new history book.

We will never be judgemental and have treated many patients who have neglected their oral health through fear of the dentist. Our aim is to help you overcome this fear, and get the treatment you need and the smile you deserve. Our team will reduce dental fear and welcome you to our practice.
We have several treatment options available for nervous patients. Our dental team is caring, calm and well trained to listen and understand your needs. All of our team members practise gentle and caring dentistry, and will do everything we can to help you beat your nerves.
We will also ensure that you know how to signal to us if you need a break during treatment. Particularly during longer treatments, many patients need five minutes to relax, and you don't need to worry that you are inconveniencing or holding up the dentist – your comfort is our primary concern.

The naval Battle of Monte Santiago was fought on 7–8 April 1827, between the Argentine Navy and the Imperial Brazilian Navy, during the Cisplatine War. It was a decisive Brazilian victory, with the allied forces losing its best ships. The battle is highlighted by Argentine historians as one of the most courageous and ferocious naval encounters in the country's history. On that day, Captain Francis Drummond (engaged to Admiral Brown's daughter Elisa) died on deck, firing his marooned ship's cannons instead of retreating.

Its result meant a severe setback for the smaller Argentine Navy. From that moment on, only corsair raids against commerce ships could be undertaken by the Argentine Navy and the naval blockade imposed on Buenos Aires by the Brazilian Navy caused serious problems to the export-oriented Argentine economy.

The battle
The Brazilian Navy had high seas vessels, with more firepower but lesser speed; the Argentine Navy relied on fast maneuvering ships. Some Argentine commanders believed that the lack of manoeuvring of the Imperial vessels in shallow waters and the speed of their own ships could decide some engagements in their favour.

The Argentine squadron

The Argentine commander was confident that, by using the surprise element, his more maneuverable ships could inflict damage and that he could escape before the Brazilian force could counterattack. However, he was unaware of the enemy's initial three-to-one advantage in terms of ships on the first day of battle (which escalated into a four-to-one advantage by the second day). Brown also underestimated the Brazilian fleet's ability to cut off any route of escaping in time. As a result, the battle was a two-day pouring of shells onto his men.

At night Brown left the anchorage with the Republica, Independencia, Congreso and Sarandí. The Brazilian watchman-corvette, Maceió, alerted the squadron using cannon and signal lamps. The corvette Liberal and the brigs of the second division, at anchor eight miles from the outer channel of the harbor, moved promptly. The Argentines dropped all their sails in search of the ocean. At two o'clock in the morning the Brazilians opened fire, making an effort to put the pursued Argentine ships between the line of Imperial brigs and the coast. The Maceió took care of the Congreso, which left the line of its own entering between the banks and seeking refuge in Ensenada. The Independencia and the Republica, turning in the same direction, ran aground between the ends of Palo Blanco and Confisco. The Sarandí sided with those, to join their fires to the defense. The artillery duel and the rescue and destruction maneuvers lasted for hours. By 7 P.M., Admiral Pinto Guedes' squadron appeared, but of all its vessels only the Pirajá, led by João das Botas, and the Independencia ou Morte, due to their smaller size, could approach the enemy. At night the wind changed, pushing six small schooners from Colonia capable of navigating the banks. The final attack on the stranded Republicans was prepared while the high-board ships closed the escape route. The schooners rounded up the Argentines, hitting them with cannon fire until 2 P.M, when they proceeded to board the Argentine ships. The Independencia lowered the flag, and the Republica, in spite of a well put up resistance, was overwhelmed.  Admiral Brown, with a wound in his thigh, transferred to the Sarandí and returned to Buenos Aires.

Aftermath
The losses in this battle, along with the loss of the large Argentinian vessel 25 de Mayo in the Battle of Quilmes (July 29–30, 1826), kept the Brazilian Navy in control of the River Plate. From that moment on, only raids against commerce ships could be carried out by the Argentine Navy, mostly from its Atlantic base at Carmen de Patagones, but no major operations to challenge the larger ships of the Brazilian Navy were possible. As the British military historian Brian Vale put it, "[...] Juncal had done little to push the Empire in the direction of peace. Now at Monte Santiago, two of Argentina's precious brigs-of-war had been destroyed and the cream of its Navy roundly defeated. The Brazilian Navy's overwhelming superiority at sea had been reasserted in a way which neither William Brown's audacity or Ramsay's newly purchased frigates could seriously challenge".

The war reached a standstill: the Argentine Army had greater control in the land operations, but lacked the means to expel the Brazilian Army from Colonia del Sacramento and Montevideo, the two largest cities of Uruguay (which would remain under Brazilian control throughout the whole conflict), and lacked larger ships to challenge the control of the river; at the same time, the losses sustained by the Brazilians during the previous battles discouraged them from extending the naval war into the interior rivers of Argentina, and the shallow waters discouraged the attempt of a direct attack against Buenos Aires. This situation continued until 1828 when the Preliminary Peace Convention was signed, by which the Cisplatina Province became the independent nation of Uruguay.

Corporate zombiesYou have probably heard of the corporate athlete by Jim Loehr. The HBR article describes how you can keep yourself fit at corporate level. They give tips like taking breaks, clearing your head, and physical exercises.
So we know that there are fit and unfit corporate athletes, but I would like to add another employee type, the corporate zombie. Corporate zombies are the day walkers among the others. The ones who are at work, but are not really at work. You probably know a colleague who acts just like this.
You work from nine to quarter before five. The last quarter is dedicated to looking or waiting at the time-clock.
You only follow your job description. Everything else is not your concern.
You are known for your idea killers.
The last training you followed was obliged by your team leader.
You like to complain processes and procedures, but hate it to participate when there are initiatives to solve it.
You are known for your skepticism with corporate change projects.
You best discussions are the gossip sessions in the coffee corner.
Before giving your opinion, you first look to your left and right to check if anyone else is listening.
Do you recognize at lease five of these characteristics? In that case it's time for a change!
Are you sure doing the right job? Check your talents, find your passion.
Find purpose in your job. Even if you don't like what you are doing right now.
Evaluate your day. Write down one thing that went good.
Ask more autonomy to fill in your day job.
Unlock your creativity. Participate in creativity exercises or games.
Engage in after-work events. Get to know your colleagues on another level.
Avoid using idea killers (eg. like "yes, but…"), but see through the idea and discover its possibilities.
Find a mentor, explain your situation and plan a weekly meeting where you discuss the passed week.

Q: about springboot mapping order I am making a blog which can customize page links,fisrt function is the backstage entrance, It like this
    @GetMapping("/admin/**")
    public String index(){
        return "index";
    }

and
    @GetMapping("/{page_url}")
    public String page(@PathVariable String page_url, Model model){
        doSomeThing...
    }

Goal:
I want when i browse '/admin' to the first function.
Problem:
it to the second, what should I do (Looks like '/favicon.ico' too)

A: I am not very sure whats your intention, as I understand, properly you want to handle a redirect to index view as a welcome page on one path and logic codes on others. You can do something like this (just make sure your path is distinct).
@RequestMapping(value = "/", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public String home(Locale locale, Model model) {
    logger.info("Welcome home! The client locale is {}.", locale);
    return "index";
}

@RequestMapping(value = "/admin/{myVariable}", method = RequestMethod.GET) // or POST ...
public String admin(Model model, @PathVariable String myVariable, ...) {
    // some logic, eg. displaying current date on admin page
    LocalDate localDate = LocalDate.now();
    model.addAttribute("serverTime", localDate);
    return "admin";
}

A: I would define a class pathmapping as /admin and use the methods to give them the sub mappings.
Like so:

@Controller
@RequestMapping(path = "/admin")
public class AdminController
{
    @PostMapping(path = "/members")
    public void addMember() {
        //code
    }
}

Was looking for the new directions to the crags in the lower gorge (purple valley specifically) since all of the work on forest road 9b. Any body having any luck refinding the crags and can share their approach beta?
Purple Valley is all the way at the dead end.
Two popular crags are affected: Muscle Beach and Dip Wall. Other than those two the driving and approach trail directions should still work.
For Muscle Beach you park in the same spot, cross the creek on the boulders just upstream of the parking area, and parallel the creek downstream looking for a trail on the edge of the treeline. A few weeks ago it was at a large fallen tree that you had to duck under. Then you follow the old approach, but its hard to give directions because its overgrown. But once you start climbing the hillside the trail is still sort of there and easy enough to follow.
Dip wall: Park at the gate at the new end of 9b. Hike up the creek and then bear left along the sometimes dry fork (Blackstand Branch) into the trees. You'll pick up the old Dip Wall trail on the right side of the stream where it meets the trees.
Such a beautiful drive. The river was clear and a luminescent green, the woods still bare. Seemed like a secretive silence.
SO lucky that GREAT people let me climb with them at Muscle Beach this past week (you know who you are). Can't believe it took me 20 years to get out there. What a beast Martin Hackworth must be, can't believe what they were willing to get on. The place to be.
Seems like a new approach may be in order? I think this is the crag?
training is for people who care, i have a job.
Ascentionist wrote: Two popular crags are affected: Muscle Beach and Dip Wall. Other than those two the driving and approach trail directions should still work.
nope, you can no longer cross the creek in your auto. Dip Wall pull off is as far as you can go.
import it into google maps.
If you need further help google importing klm into google maps.
I should have clarified that as a hiker you follow the driving directions as they exist. The hiking directions have changed for Dip Wall and Muscle Beach, or at least the visuals are different due to the stream reclamation project.
You do have to stop driving at the Dip Wall parking area, but otherwise you just hike the drive.

A United Artists Retrospective Scrapbook: 1935
retrospective scrapbook
By CinemaInternational,
July 9, 2019 in General Discussions
CinemaInternational
LocationUnited States
it should be said up front that a few of these films this year are from the company known as 20th Century. Some of them have already been included in the first Fox installment, but I am including them here because technically, UA still handled them.
Ronald Colman started the year in the biopic Clive of India.
Leslie Howard, Merle Oberon, and Raymond Massey were the leads in the classic adventure The Scarlet Pimpernel.
Merle was back again with Charles Boyer in another adventure, Battle in the East.
and even more Merle! This time she was in a musical with Maurice Chevalier and Ann Sothern.
Gary Cooper and Anna Sten appeared in the tragic The Wedding Night which won a directing prize for King Vidor at the Venice Film Festival
Fredric March and Charles Laughton scored a triumph with Les Miserables.
George Arliss then returned as Cardinal Richielieu
Richard Arlen and Virginia Bruce starred in Let Em Have It, a gangster saga.
Elizabeth Bergner starred in the romantic melodrama Escape Me Never, later remade at WB in 1947.
Anna Neagle was Nell Gwenn and Cedric Hardwicke was King Charles II, her secret love. Well, not so secret anymore.
Paul Robeson starred in the much acclaimed Sanders of the River.
Clark Gable and Loretta Young starred in a very entertaining (if loose) version of Jack London's Call of the Wild.
Look who's back again! It's Merle Oberon, in her only Oscar nominated role; The Dark Angel. This superior romantic melodrama is deeply felt and is overall entrancing.
Barbara Stanwyck and Robert Young were trying to outwit some Communists in Red Salute.
Miriam Hopkins was a female cardsharp in Barbary Coast. it had its moments.
The Melody Lingers On looks to be a lost film.
Miriam Hopkins and Joel McCrea were in love in Splendor, costarring Billie Burke and David Niven.
Douglas Fairbanks Jr and Gertrude Lawrence starred in the romance Mimi
And Brewster's Millions was a British take of the much filmed tale
https://hollywoodhistoryinpictures.wordpress.com/blog-feed/
LawrenceA
Les Miserables - the first version of the story that I ever saw, and still my favorite
Barbary Coast
Sanders of the River
I've also seen Clive of India, Escape Me Never, The Dark Angel, and Red Salute.
TopBilled
So many great ones this year-- mostly because we're looking at output from Zanuck and Goldwyn, both producers were making top-grade independent "A" films.
The Arliss film, CARDINAL RICHELIEU, was his lat American effort. But he would make four more in Britain, and they're all gems.
Likewise, Chevalier left Hollywood after FOLIES BERGERE DE PARIS and returned to European films.
I think THE WEDDING NIGHT might be favorite from this overall group. Though I also think THE DARK ANGEL is well made, and so is LES MISERABLES.
I've never seen the Stanwyck-Young picture.

Sold Homes in Los Angeles
Ellen DeGeneres Just Bought Back the House She Sold in 2007
By Adrian Glick Kudler Dec 18, 2014, 12:16pm PST
Updated 1:26 pm: Ellen DeGeneres is the craziest real estate badass in Los Angeles. This year alone she bought and sold one of the best properties in town in a matter of months, picked up two condos in the Beverly West tower, and now is selling those two condos and re-buying a two-parcel compound from the person she herself sold it to back in 2007. She's crazy! As was rumored back in November, DeGeneres and wife Portia de Rossi have bought a boomerang-shaped mid-century modern from designer Alexandra Hedison (Jodie Foster's wife), who completely remodeled the place since buying it from DeGeneres in 2007, so really it's like the couple are moving into a totally new house and not the same house they already lived in for a couple years in the mid-aughts. Update: Hedison designed the remodel, but the house was actually owned by an LLC associated with Hedison's ex and Milgard Manufacturing heiress Allison Milgard.
According to the LA Times, DeGeneres paid $10 million for the house and a neighboring property that she also owned back in the aughts (the house alone went for $3,160,625, according to Redfin). The post and beam was built in 1956 and has four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a pool, "every imaginable modern convenience," two-car garage, two fireplaces, and built-ins.
Meanwhile, over in Westwood, DeGeneres and de Rossi are selling off their two-condo, full-floor digs at the Beverly West; the south unit (two bedrooms, three bathrooms) is going for $8.495 million and the north (two bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms) for $7.495 million. Together they total about 8,000 square feet.
The Beverly West units:

If you get hurt on school grounds after hours, is the school liable?
After school our teachers encourage us not to ride any modes of transportation. They put teachers outside to stop student from riding them. I was curious about the law behind this and if the school was liable for injuries that happen on their property during after school hours, and after the school is in possession of the children.
I proceeded to ask a teacher that told me to get off my long board, why this rule was in place. All she told me was that it's because of the liability.
So my question is, if you get hurt on school grounds after school hours while riding scooters, bikes, skateboards, etc., is the school liable for the damage to the student?
That's a great question Leo. In most cases, schools and school districts will not be held liable for injuries to students when students are on school grounds. The idiom "accidents happen" generally applies in these cases.
Students are injured all the time on school property while playing sports, running in the halls, slipping and falling on spilled drinks, etc. If the school were to be held liable every time a student was injured, the school would effectively not be able to function.
For a school to be held liable for a student's injuries, there must be a showing of some form of gross negligence, or a reckless disregard for the safety and well-being of a student.
For example, if a student was running down the hall and slipped on water unintentionally spilled by another student, and the student was injured, the school would likely not be liable. For the school to be liable the school would have had to have notice of the spilled water, and with that knowledge failed to timely clean up the spill, or failed to cordon off the area.
It gets a little more complicated. Even though the school may know about the spilled water, the school must have a reasonable amount of time to clean up the water or cordon off the area.
For example, if the spill occurred at 2:30 in the afternoon, and a student reported the spill at 2:35, and a student slipped and fell at 2:40, the school would likely not be held liable. Under normal circumstances it takes more than 5 minutes for the school office to notify their janitor to clean up the spill or cordon off the area.
However, if the school knew about the spill and took no action to clean it up or cordon off the area, or didn't take care of the spill until 4:00, and in the interim a student slipped and fell, then it is arguable the school would be liable for the student's injuries.
When a teacher tells students not to use their scooters, bikes, skateboards, etc. and a student ignores the teacher's direction, and that student is injured, the school would likely not be liable. This brings us back to the original premise that schools are normally not liable for injuries to students on school property unless there can be a showing of gross negligence, or a wanton disregard for the student's safety and well-being.

Q: Linq To SQL - Having and Group By I've this query below working fine. However I want to implement it using Linq.
select u.ID, u.NAME
from Task t
join BuildingUser bu ON bu.ID_BUILDING = t.ID_BUILDING
join [User] u ON u.ID = bu.ID_USER
where t.ID IN (2,9) AND u.ID != t.ID_USER
group by u.id, u.name
having count(bu.ID_BUILDING) = (SELECT COUNT(t2.ID_BUILDING) FROM Task t2 WHERE t2.ID IN (2,9))

I don't know how to Group and use Having clause at the same time.

A: You can try something like this:
var ids = new[] { 2, 9 };
var results =
    from t in db.Tasks
    join bu in db.BuildingUsers on t.ID_BUILDING equals bu.ID_BUILDING
    group bu by bu.ID_BUILDING into bg
    join u in db.Users on bg.Key equals u.ID
    where ids.Contains(t.ID) && u.ID != t.ID_USER
    group u by new { u.ID, u.NAME } into g
    where bg.Count() == db.Tasks.Count(t2 => ids.Contains(t2.ID))
    select g.Key;

Or if you have navigation properties set up correctly, you can try this:
var ids = new[] { 2, 9 };
var results =
    from t in db.Tasks.Where(x => ids.Contains(x.ID))
    from u in t.BuildingUsers.SelectMany(bu => bu.Users)
                             .Where(x => x.ID != t.ID_USER)
    group u by new { u.ID, u.NAME } into g
    where t.BuildingUsers.Count() == db.Tasks.Count(x => ids.Contains(x.ID))
    select g.Key;

How does Fusion Energy work and is it a good idea?
Plastic Pollution: How Humans are Turning the World into Plastic
Modern life would be impossible without plastic – but we have long since lost control over our invention. Why has plastic turned into a problem and what do we know about its dangers?

Tiny Bombs in your Blood - The Complement System
One of the key players of our immune system is the complement system. An army of millions and trillions of tiny bombs, which work together in a complex and elegant dance to stop intruders in your body.
What Happened Before History? Human Origins
Humans. We have been around for a while now. When we think about our past we think about ancient civilizations, the pyramids, stuff like that. But this is only a tiny, tiny part of our history.
So. Are you your body? And if so, how exactly does this work? Lets explore lots of confusing questions.
Time makes sense in small pieces, but when you look at huge stretches of time, it's almost impossible to wrap your head around things.
The Most Extreme Things that are not Black Holes
Neutron stars are one of the most extreme and violent things in the universe. Giant atomic nuclei, only a few kilometers in diameter but as massive as stars. And they owe their existence to the death of something majestic.
An Antidote to Dissatisfaction
Everybody is familiar with the feeling that things are not as they should be. That you are not successful enough, your relationships not satisfying enough. That you don't have the things you crave. In this video we want to talk about one of the strongest predictors of how happy people are, how easily they make friends and how good they are at dealing with hardship. An antidote against dissatisfaction so to speak: Gratitude.
The Coronavirus Explained & What You Should Do
In December 2019 the Chinese authorities notified the world that a virus was spreading through their communities. In the following months it spread to other countries, with cases doubling within days. This virus is the "Severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus 2", that causes the disease called COVID19, and that everyone simply calls Coronavirus.
Who Is Responsible For Climate Change? – Who Needs To Fix It?
Since the Industrial Revolution, humans have released over 1.5 trillion tonnes of carbon dioxide or CO2 into the earth's atmosphere. In the year 2019 we were still pumping out around 37 billion more. That's 50% more than the year 2000 and almost three times as much as 50 years ago. And it's not just CO2. We're also pumping out growing volumes of other greenhouse gases such as methane and nitrous oxide. Combining all of our greenhouse gases, we're emitting 51 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalents each year. And emissions keep rising – but they need to get down to 0!

My first experience with yoga was in 1999 at my local community centre in London. I dabbled for a while, on and off for 6 years. When I moved back to Scotland I thought Yoga might be the way out of the 9-5 office job so I took a 2 year part time teacher training programme and leapt into the world of self employment. I've not looked back. I've been teaching yoga full time since 2007 and studied with many teachers both internationally and locally. My practice and teaching continues to evolve. My yoga has become a practice to stay present, it has taught me to tread lightly on this earth. My interests lie in functional movement and anatomy.
I offer you a welcoming space to move safely, with integrity. I encourage you to slow down, linger in the pauses and notice every part of your experience.
Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training, British Wheel of Yoga 2008, Scotland.
I am eternally grateful to the teachers who have influenced my practice and teaching the most: Tara Fraser at Yoga Junction, London; Pete Blackaby in Brighton and Donna Farhi (New Zealand). I was introduced to meditation by Clive Holmes at Samye Ling Buddhist Monastery many years ago. Currently I'm learning more about more natural movement and biomechanics from movement educator Katy Bowman (Nutritious Movement) and the sustainable, modern yoga approach with Brea Johnson (Heart & Bones Yoga) they have given me so much new and interesting material to work with.
I am forever a student on this path.

Grow Where You Are Planted - 10 Year Anniversary
10 years of Marriage. Our wedding was so much fun. Thankfully, this was pre-Pinterest. I made the wedding invitations. Rob drew a map of the events that we included as an insert, he made the intersections look like a cursive "H" for Hickson. We had a stamp made that said "andrea & robby" written in my handwriting in cursive with a heart interlacing our names in place of the ampersand. Our friend played the guitar to "I Love You Lord" as I walked down the gorgeous red aisle of the church that Rob grew up in. Rob and all the guys wore off white linen suits and looked so fly. Rob had a mohawk! We had Moroccan lamps lining the aisles, three flower girls, a ring bearer, two boys ringing bells and five bridesmaids and groomsmen. Todd, the pastor who married us is also married to Denise, she was my mentor in high school and college. It was so special to have him marry us and really cool because they also shared our same anniversary. We said our vows, exchanged rings and lit the unity candle while our friends sang, "Take My Life and Let it Be". After we had our first kiss as a married couple and were pronounced Husband and Wife we walked back up the aisle together, while the guitar plucked the melody of "Everything Glorious". It's so sweet to remember the details.
Our first dance at the reception.
Our reception was at a banquet hall (in a strip mall on Calle Ocho - so Miami!) But it was perfect because we tore it up on the dance floor! When we went to cut the cake, we noticed that the cake topper was next to the cake on the table. For whatever reason, when we selected our cake (vanilla with raspberry jelly and cream cheese frosting - sill my favorite cake/ cupcake combo) we were told we had to purchase a cake topper. We just wanted to have flowers on the cake as the only decoration, but they insisted, so we bought this sculpture of a couple embracing that also looked like two rings interlaced. When it was time to cut the cake, we got to the table and just had to laugh... the cake was beautiful and it had flowers on the top just how we wanted it. And the cake topper of the lovely couple embracing? It was on display next to the cake. To this day, we don't understand what happened, but it was hilarious to us, so we've kept the sculpture and have it on our mantle. Every time I see it I think of our wedding and how funny it was to see it there next to the cake when we didn't even want it to begin with. It's been a funny memento to have from the wedding and reminds me how even though a wedding is important and is so special, in the end it's about the marriage and finding reasons to laugh as you share life together day after day, year after year. Speaking of cake - the only taste I had of my cake that day was from when we took the photos cutting the cake and tasting a piece because my new husband ATE MY SLICE! Marriage is built on love, trust and apparently stealing your bride's slice of wedding cake.
We danced and danced and danced at our wedding. At one point a kickline formed as we danced to New York, New York (two years before we moved here)! As the reception came to an end - a FLASH FLOOD warning started scrolling across the top of my phone screen. It started pouring (good luck, right?) so we were stuck! We opened a few gifts with our guests and made the best of it while the staff at the banquet hall started to tear down the tables and decor. It lasted all of 30 minutes, so it wasn't bad at all. When I get a Flash Flood warning on my phone nowadays, I can't help but think back on our wedding. I must be the only person that sees Flash Flood warning and thinks, Awwwwww. LOL. I have so many fond memories of that day, and am so thankful.
Celebrating!
So since 05.06.07 we've... held dozens of jobs, earned two master's degrees, moved to NYC, gotten a dog, become parents to an amazing, fierce little girl, taken thousands of photos, had countless dance parties in the kitchen - which Lucie now loves, made friends for life, started two businesses, added wayyy too much to our plates, taken steps back, gotten things right, made mistakes, gone to sleep in each other's arms, gone to sleep in frustration and silence, learned how to better communicate, learned how to show each other that we love and appreciate each other, made a few more mistakes along the way, supported each other's dreams, gone on adventures, grown in forgiveness and grace, grown in our relationship with each other, and grown in our relationship with the Lord. Again, I am so thankful.
We had lot's of ideas on how to celebrate the big TEN. We both LOVE to travel and I recently realized that the last time I went overseas was all the way back in 2005. Between 2000 to 2005 I went to Italy, Germany, France, Cali, Barbados, Puerto Rico and Spain... I kind of took for granted that travel would always be a regular part of my life. I enjoy it and long to travel with Rob and Lucie (I blame growing up watching Aladdin and listening to A Whole New World over and over again). Most of our trips in the past several years have been around the Northeast which has been great, and to see family in Florida and PR. We had been talking about possibly celebrating our 10 year anniversary by going on a fun trip out of the county, but we decided to hold off on that for now. It's still something we'd really like to do and hopefully we can start planning for it for next summer.
We also talked about having a big party. Rob proposed on top of a roof in Downtown Coral Gables. We listened to some Michael Bublé, took in the gorgeous views of the city and toasted with a glass of white wine. For as much as we like to take pictures, we didn't have a camera back then so I can't show you, but trust me, it was lovely. We have also talked about one day contacting that building's management to see if we can rent the rooftop for an anniversary party to renew our vows with family and friends. Maybe our 20th!? Ha!
So on 05.06.17 a lot of great things came together rather perfectly and we had an extremely special day. We spent the day with Lucie and took a trip up to the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx. We found out there was a Chihuly exhibit so we were extra excited because when we celebrated our dating anniversary back when we were engaged over 10 years ago, just a few months before we got married, we spent the day at Fairchild Tropical Garden in Miami and there was a Chihuly exhibit there.
Ten years ago at Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden in Miami (March 2007!)
New York Botanical Garden (May 2017). The Tulips were almost as tall as Lucie!
10 years later - new city, new garden, new sculpture - and a Lucie!
Later that evening, Rob planned for Lucie to have sleepover with her bestie (THANK YOU THOMASES), so that we could go to dinner and then enjoy the one thing I asked for - to sleep in! Rob told me we'd be going to a rooftop dinner, just like when we got engaged but this time in the greatest city in the world, NYC. What a blessing that we get to call this place home. Dinner was... absolutely amazing. We stepped out of the elevator on the 41st floor and were greeted by cocktails prepared by our talented friends Kat and David from the Mottley Kitchen. We took in the incredible views of the City while we had our drinks and then enjoyed the delicious courses served to us for a private dinner. I can't get over how stunning it all was.

... while we made our way to one across town.
Midtown behind us
Clearly, we had fun!
Dinner with a view
Rob arranged to have the "Cake Topper" that never was from our wedding, as our anniversary table decor. Loved every detail.
Looking at my wedding band, I see the verses Rob had the jeweler engrave on the inside: Jeremiah 29:4-13. There's a story as to why we chose those verses... they were the focus of a sermon we heard while were dating and little did I know, while Rob was also praying about asking to marry me. This is the portion that struck him the most:
"Build houses and settle down; plant gardens and eat what they produce. Marry and have sons and daughters; find wives for your sons and give your daughters in marriage, so that they too may have sons and daughters. Increase in number there; do not decrease. Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper."
For him, it was that extra push he was looking for to move forward with asking my parents if he could marry me and planning when he would propose. I love reading it and thinking about the encouragement to come together in marriage, grow as a family and to invest in and pray for the community around you. It reminds me of this quote I recently shared with a friend of mine a few weeks ago who was in the midst of deciding on whether or not to make an upcoming move.
"grow where you are planted"
She asked - What if we end up having to move again though? I think I responded saying something like - Maybe in this case you're a potted plant? Point being - even if you're not somewhere for the long haul - grow, give, invest, get involved. NYC is home and we are praying to continue to grow where we are. When we originally moved here we thought we'd just be here for about two years while Rob finished his Master's. Every spring we looked to try to move ANYWHERE that Rob could coach football in the fall. As the years passed we tried to focus on moving back to Florida. NYC is so expensive and we have rented cozy apartments for almost eight years with no real savings to speak of, (and all other equally valid reasons). Rob applied to over 10 promising jobs one spring and went down for interviews, but the doors were firmly shut. Even though the answer to move somewhere, anywhere, that wouldn't be as "hard" as living in NYC was a "no", we were glad for the answer because it meant we could really focus on growing here and it has made all the difference. We truly can't imagine living anywhere else.
I've had this ring on my finger for ten years, only thinking about the verses on the inside every so often, as I reflect on them now it is so amazing to see how God has woven them throughout the path He has led us on in our marriage.

Home Authority CONTROLLERS: 'PILOTS PUT US TO SLEEP'
CONTROLLERS: 'PILOTS PUT US TO SLEEP'
Authority admin	· April 18, 2011 · 0 Comment
WASHINGTON, D.C. (SatireWire.com) – Beleaguered air traffic controllers went on the offensive today, accusing pilots of purposely putting them to sleep by constantly speaking in that low-level, monotone mumble.
"Passengers hear pilots give those muttered, indecipherable announcements a few times a flight, but we have to hear that all night along," said Randy Kirkham, a spokesman for the National Air Traffic Controllers Association. "I dare anyone to stay awake during that. I've had better conversations in a coma."
A passenger bored to sleep by a pilot mumbling over the plane's PA system.
Charles Rand, chief of the airline pilots union, immediately denied the allegation and said pilots only speak in soft, mind-numbing voices to calm passengers.
"The fault here mmmm-mmmm air traffic mmm-mmm mmmm with our mmmm," Rand said. "We mmmmm-mmmm cabin crew mmmm-mmm-mm thousand feet mmmm-mmmm flight time mmmm mmmm-mmmm rough air mmmm-mm-mmmmly. So sit back and relax."
The FAA, however, conceded that a pilot's voice is soporific.
"It is hypnotic," said David Grizzle, interim head of Air Traffic for the FAA. "Most of us play cockpit tapes at night to get to sleep."
The charges come in the wake of the resignation of FAA Air Traffic chief Hank Krakowski, who left under pressure last week. Krakowski could not be woken for comment, as he had fallen asleep to a particularly powerful mix of tranquilizers and a United Airlines co-pilot describing the weather conditions around Dallas/Fort Worth.
Controllers, meanwhile, contend that pilots are well aware of the effect they have, and produced a tape recording of a recent controller-pilot interaction as proof. On the tape, the tower at San Francisco International Airport tells Continental flight 449 to descend to 8,000 feet. The pilot replies, "Roger tower. Descending to 8,000. And then 7,000, 6,000, 5,000, 4,000 … you're getting drowsy … 3,000, 2,000, 1,000… you're asleep."
Controllers say they've long endured the practice without complaint, but say pilots crossed the line by complaining to the FAA about dozing. As a result, pilots say controllers have begun to strike back.
"Saturday I was coming into Philly and I asked what runway and approach to take," said American Airlines pilot Jeff Sandsby. "The controllers says, 'Can you see the ground?' I said, 'Yeah.' He said, 'Good. Try and land on it.' Once I got down I asked where to go. And he told me.'
"Yesterday in Minneapolis the tower told me I was cleared for fuck off," he added.
Animosity between controllers and pilots is rarely talked about outside the industry for fear of creating a public panic, but the dozing crisis has brought the rivalry into the open. It's also gone onto to the Internet, as competing Twitter postings last week from a pilot and a controller attest:
CaptainSkyJockey: "Here's a good one: What do you get when you cross a 747 with an Airbus 320? Fired."
PowerTower: "Here's a better one: What do you get when you cross a 747 with an Airbus 320? Let's find out."

This probably has one of the highest number of languages in it as we are speaking English, German and Russian and then there is Schuberts Heidenroeslein in Japanese, selected as this is a song the German version of which is a party piece sometimes delivered by our dear friend Dr Peter Heinemann, featured here, when in the right mood.
