NEW JERSEY PRO SE REPRESENTATION - CAN I HANDLE A NEW JERSEY SPECIAL CIVIL PART PRO SE CASE MYSELF?
•	it is very common for New Jersey pro se parties to file inadequate or incorrect New Jersey complaints that result in the New Jersey complaints or answers to New Jersey complaints being rejected by the New Jersey Special Civil Part or being dismissed by the New Jersey Special Civil Part after filing and before or after trial because of procedural deficiencies.
•	it is not uncommon for New Jersey judges to get very frustrated by an unrepresented party's lack of preparation or ignorance of the facts or law of the New Jersey Special Civil Part pro se case.
•	a Special Civil Part has the power to punish unprepared parties, such as by throwing their Speciall Civil case out of Special Civil Part or limiting what they can present at the New Jersey Special Civil Part trial.
•	New Jersey has many published cases, laws, regulations, Special Civil Part rules and rules of evidence that can be very tricky to understand and that can be used to prevent you from doing much of what you want to do at the New Jersey Special Civil Part trial.
•	it is very common for Special Civil Parts to refuse to allow a New Jersey pro se party to use or refer to documents or items at the New Jersey Special Civil Part trial that the person themselves never prepared. Often New Jersey pro se parties stumble into New Jersey Special Civil Part with a video, photograph, bill or affidavit or other form of written statement, thinking they are going to use it as proof that they lost money or that they are not responsible for someone else's damages, only to have a judge tell the parties that it is not going to even consider such items or documents.
•	without the proper preparation, items and documents may never be considered by the New Jersey Special Civil Part.

CAN I RELY ON NEW JERSEY SPECIAL CIVIL PART PERSONNEL FOR LEGAL ADVICE?

Working at the New Jersey Special Civil Part as a non-judge is not the same as practicing law.
CAN I RELY ON NEW JERSEY SPECIAL CIVIL PART FORMS PROVIDED BY THE NEW JERSEY SPECIAL CIVIL PART?
The New Jersey Special Civil Part usually provides certain types of New Jersey legal forms to the public and those forms are often very helpful. However, beware relying on New Jersey Special Civil Part forms provided by the New Jersey Special Civil Part – the New Jersey forms are often deceptively simple, while New Jersey Special Civil Part pro se cases often are much more complex than they first appear to be. There is simply no substitute for a competent New Jersey attorney licensed to practice law in New Jersey who has experience handling New Jersey Special Civil Part pro se cases. New Jersey forms don't talk and New Jersey forms and their directions rarely, if ever, cover every possible situation, set of facts or legal issue that may arise in a New Jersey Special Civil Part pro se case.

Mornings before dawn in Venice are hauntingly quiet. As you walk among the city you can almost hear the ghosts of the past.
March 2014, single image, additional exposures for highlights, focal length 16mm, aperture f/11, shutter speed 2.7 seconds, ISO 100, tripod.
As I wondered in front of the San Giacomo di Rialto Church I felt enraptured by the view of this church.
The San Giacomo is the oldest church in Venice dating at least as far back as 421 AD when it was consecrated. One can only imagine the funerals, weddings and services that have taken place in this church well over one thousand years. If you believe in ghosts one could say this place is without a doubt filled with spirits from the past.
It was more than a feeling that made me desire to use the San Giacomo di Rialto Church as main subject in this composition. The way the city seemed to naturally frame the church looked as if the architects of the city built this particular spot just for taking wonderful photos.
The fountain on the square and multiple white lines on the floor made for perfect composition. I placed the fountain in mid-ground and the white lines fell nicely in the foreground to encompass the fountain. As a result, the eye investigates the foreground then naturally led to the fountain then next to the church.
Spending blue hour to make this photo I lingered long enough to capture what I needed. Next I hurried off to the Rialto Bridge to capture the it during golden hour. When you are a photographer lighting is what plans your days during your travel.

For a single moment when she'd first put on the uniform, she'd been a different person. There'd been a rip in spacetime, showing her a world where she was competent, where she wasn't a total loser.
In this reality, "total loser" was starting to look like an aspirational goal.
Stef stared into the bathroom mirror and tried to calculate how much longer Ryan would let her hide before he sent someone in after her to enquire if she was experiencing a medical emergency. So far, he'd given her fifteen minutes, twenty would be pushing it.
For the thirty-eighth time, she looked to the large frosted window, not quite able to convince herself that plummeting however many stories to the ground and the resultant grievous bodily harm was better than interacting with humans.
Somehow, stupidly, she hadn't considered interacting with other people. New people. New people that she had to talk to. It was an entirely different proposition to the code monkeys – with them, they'd been operating at least near her wavelength.
A single goal, a single topic of conversation that arose naturally whenever conversation had to take place.
Here, there weren't going to be any parameters. No guidelines. No-
She leaned her elbows on the sink, and drove both thumbs into her throat, unsure if she was trying to cut off her air or force herself to breathe.
She couldn't draw in a breath. And everything hurt.
Seconds stretched, and self-loathing settled on her shoulders like a familiar jacket.
She dropped her hands away, then ran the tap and splashed her face.
'Why the fuck did I think I-'
I'm so stupid. I'm so stupid.
So go home.
Sometimes I can't tell if you're trying to help me or goad me.
What do you need right now, Spyder?
'God, I wish I knew.'
You can't stay in here forever.
Stef carefully patted her face dry and looked at herself once more to make sure she looked – at least on a first or second glance – normal.
'You'll have to do,' she muttered to her reflection, then walked towards the door, each of the six stalls an invitation to hide, to take shelter in shadow and just breathe until the world ended.
One slow footstep after another eventually took her out of the room. More slow steps took her the short way down the corridor, to where Ryan was leaning against the wall, waiting for her. She opened her mouth to claim bodily dysfunction, but nothing came out.
And if she forced the tiniest sound, she knew she'd be screaming.
'You're nervous.'
She managed to keep almost-eye-contact with him for another second, nodded, then dropped her head to look down at her feet. 'I just don't– I'm not so good around people.'
'As I remarked earlier, you seem to be outside of a lot of usual parameters, so maybe we can try something a little outside of the norm. Excuse me for a moment.'
She nodded, and expected him to walk away, but instead he just went quiet. She looked up, and his eyes had the thousand-yard stare of someone not looking at the objects in front of them.
Using his HUD?
A moment later, he stood straight. 'We'll try this instead,' he said. 'Generally, new recruits are given a general introduction to all available, off-shift colleagues, then handed over to their recruit partner for the remainder of their induction. We shall simply skip the general introduction – a new recruit alert has already been emailed, which will suffice.'
A moment later, a recruit walked around the corner. 'Here, sir,' the recruit announced as he walked up to Ryan. She took a quick look at him – full Field uniform, just like Ryan. He was a plain-looking, brown-haired white guy. Somewhere around her age. Probably a foot taller than her. Another stupidly tall person. Too many people were tall.
Am I supposed to say hello?
Many humans do use greetings when meeting someone for the first time.
Thankfully, Ryan saved her from any embarrassment resulting from a failure to act like a person. 'Miss Mimosa, this is Recruit O'Connor. He's been assigned as your partner, and he'll continue your tour from here.' He lifted his hand, as if to place it on her shoulder, but withdrew it before making contact, then smiled. 'I'll check in on you later.'
'Okay, thanks,' she said, trying not to stumble over her words as Ryan walked away.
Recruit O'Connor gave an awkward wave that seemed to be half-greeting, half-getting attention. 'Hi. Need to do anything before we continue?'
She shrugged. 'Um. No?'
He jerked a thumb over his shoulder. 'Then we're headed this way.' He turned and started to walk. 'I'm also not going to pretend I haven't seen your file. Agent Ryan always asks that I read through before I show a new person around. So, forgive me if I go a little one-oh-one on stuff, but it doesn't seem like you have much exposure to the fae side of the world?'
She tried to think and ground the heel of her hand into her right eye. 'Um, maybe eighteen hours of knowing magic is real? And a bunch of those were asleep, so I don't think they count?'
'No problem, ask for any clarifications you need. Curt, by the way.'
'Huh?'
'My- My name,' he said, confusion evident in his voice as he half-turned to look at her. 'It's my name?' He stopped by a set of emergency stairs. 'These exist,' he said, patting the door, 'but mostly they're used by people who need a place to argue. Some of the best gossip comes from the recruits who stand up near the roof door to smoke and listen to everything that filters up.'
He looked at her, waiting for a response, but she wasn't sure what she was supposed to say.
'Okay, so Field is primarily spread out over two floors. We do have some facilities reserved on other floors – we've got a couple of rooms for questioning civilians on two, and we've got the use of all common facilities of course. But generally speaking, main operations on this floor, dorm rooms upstairs.'
'Been there,' she said slowly and begged her ability to fake conversation to engage. 'I mean.' She swallowed. 'I was issued a dorm room when I arrived last night,' she said, and immediately hated herself for traces of her mother's accent in her voice.
Too formal.
'Sorry,' she said, 'didn't get a lot of sleep last night.'
'Shit, yeah, sorry,' he said. 'My Tech operator told me some details, I don't know everything, but I understand it was bad. They don't usually go after civilians in large groups like that.' He stopped walking, turned, then took two steps back from her. 'For the sake of transparency, and because I'm not sure if Agent Ryan told you. I'm ex-Solstice. Relocated, rehabilitated, but for obvious reasons, some people don't like to work with me.' He leaned against the wall. 'Agent Ryan tends to put me with anyone who had an interaction with the Solstice, as I'm better placed to answer any questions they might have.'
He took a few more steps down the hall and began to tidy a noticeboard. 'No one ever removes the old notices,' he commented. He pulled a piece of paper away, and it disappeared from his hand as it was dismissed, then he replaced the pushpin.
He needed her to say something.
He nodded and continued to clean up the noticeboard. 'I…didn't know there was another choice at the time. Saw a monster, wanted to protect the people I loved. People I thought I could trust told me what seemed to be the truth.'
He adjusted one last notice, then waved for her to follow as he continued down the hall. 'They're really good at compartmentalising information, Newbie. They get a good read on you, and feed whatever lever they've made you pull inside yourself.'
'What'd you do?'
She watched as his shoulders lifted up in a big shrug. 'I was just a redshirt,' he said. 'Honestly, I spent half my time in one of the call centres chasing down where packages and shipments had ended up.'
A small group of recruits exited a room ahead of them. One – wearing casual clothes, rather than a uniform, gave a sharp whistle and a wave. 'Hey, new girl, you a pommy?'
'Uuuuuuh.'
The recruit and his cohorts walked up. 'Did you go to one of those Harry-Potter-ass boarding schools?'
Spyder-sense tingling…
'I- That would be an almost accurate description?' she said slowly.
'See, the thing is,' the recruit said, 'whenever there's someone new, we Google them, so we know if they're an untrustworthy traitor,' he said, reaching forward to punch Curt in the shoulder, 'some dipshit who was on a singing show,' he jerked his thumb at the man behind him, 'or apparently, some dumb pommy slut.'
Well, this is me noping out.
She turned, and walked back down the hall, ignoring the group calling after her, asking for clarifications, and demanding that she explain herself.
Just breathe.
It's so stupid.
Her fifteen minutes of fame, of course, it was the first thing that came up in any search on her name. A bunch of paparazzi stories, and half-blurred pictures of a teenage girl in her underwear.
'Take the left,' a voice behind her said. She started and turned, and saw Curt power-walking to catch up to her. 'I need breakfast, and I assume you need air.' He jogged around the corner, and when she caught up, he was already holding the lift open.
'So, that was Brian,' he said as he angrily punched the button for the ground floor. 'I told you my tragic backstory, so let's just say when I call him a piece of shit, you know it's a professional opinion. He thinks he's far more important than he is. And this..this is what he does to everyone. It's half-hazing, half…seeing if he wants you in his coterie.' The doors slid open. 'He treats himself like he's an aide, and expects everyone to do the same.'
'Some human beings just say hello,' she said, looking up from her shoes long enough to get a look at the lobby.
Black tile, silver accents and framed abstract art. A high-walled reception desk in the centre. A few potted plants. Perfectly anonymous, perfectly…average. Probably somewhere that had to turn away lost job seekers every day, telling them that their interview was in another building.
A pretty receptionist stood up. 'Good morning, signing out?'
'Hey Natalie, yes,' Curt said and pressed his ID wallet to a tablet that the receptionist offered.
Natalie turned and offered her the tablet. 'Hi Stephanie, welcome to the Agency.'
'Stef,' she corrected on autopilot, then she fumbled for her ID. The receptionist pointed to a little sensor where a selfie camera would usually be, and the screen briefly flashed with her photo as the ID registered.
'Have a good time,' Natalie said as she sat back down in her seat.
'Come on, Newbie!' Curt called from the front door.
Stef blinked as she stepped into the sunlight, then immediately turned to make sure that the building was still there; as magic buildings were wont to hide behind perception filters or switch sides of the street to keep themselves away from normal people.
The Agency, its potted plants still visible through the tinted glass, remained in place.
She tried to keep up with Curt, but she kept stopping, looking around, trying to see the city with new eyes, expecting to see things she hadn't seen before. It was disappointingly normal – maybe all of the differences were more evident at night.
'Hurry up, Newbie!' he called as the light flicked from the green walk-now man to the flashing red hurry-the-hell-up man. He stopped and waited for her to catch up. 'Stop dawdling.'
'I wasn't,' she muttered after they ran across the street.
'You're looking for…well, for things you didn't know existed yesterday, right?'
She looked past him, and she hoped he interpreted it as politely looking at him. 'Um. Maybe.'
'Here, come, sit.' He moved to sit at an unoccupied bus stop.
She sat, wiggled, uncomfortable on the bare metal, then lifted her legs up and sat cross-legged.
'Knowing this stuff doesn't lift some sort of curtain off the world, where every other barista has purple skin and half of the businessmen are actually spirits. There are plenty of non-humans walking amongst us, but most of the time, they're really hard to spot. Seeing one thing isn't a free pass to seeing everything. It just doesn't work that way.'
It just feels-
'-like it should seem different. Like-'
-I should be able to see-
'Sorry, Newbie, didn't catch all that. It's kind of loud out here to have a decent conversation. You want to continue, in a place where you're guaranteed to see some fae?' She snapped her head up to look at him, and he smiled. 'Yeah, I thought that might get your attention, come on, I know a place.'

The Best Cyber Monday 4K UHD TV Deals
Whether you're looking for a small affordable set for a den, or a massive high-end model for a home theater, now's the time to save big on a 4K TV.
By Grant Brunner
https://www.pcmag.com/news/the-best-cyber-monday-4k-uhd-tv-deals
Editor's Note: This story was updated at 8 p.m. ET.
Today's Cyber Monday deals are in full swing, and 4K TVs are benefiting from some of the heftiest discounts we've seen this year. Whether you're looking for a small affordable set for a den, or a massive high-end model for a home theater, this is a splendid opportunity to save hundreds of dollars on an Ultra HD television.
55-inch TCL 4K UHD TV with Roku for $379.99 (List: $599.99)
This 55-inch 4K TV from TCL (pictured above) is being sold at a killer price, but there is one major drawback: It's backordered. If you're willing to wait a few months, this price is undeniably appealing. It even comes with Roku TV built-in, so you can skip the streaming stick entirely.
55-inch Samsung 4K UHD TV with a $100 Dell eGift Card for $599.99 (List: $799.99)
Not only can you save hundreds off the sticker price of this nice Samsung 4K set, but the $100 bonus card will help subsidize any accessories or media you might want down the road.
55-inch Sony KD55X720E 4K UHD TV for $598 (List: $799.99)
If you're looking for a no-frills 4K experience, this inexpensive Sony set is a good entry point. It lacks many of the bells and whistles that are common on 4K sets, but it does have Smart TV functionality and three HDMI ports for your favorite media players and consoles.
55-inch Sony 4K UHD TV with Alexa Support for $998 (List: $1,298)
Each and every year, our gadgets become more and more intertwined. Our phones, wireless speakers, lights, locks, thermostats, and cameras all hook up and work together, so why not our televisions? This 55-inch model from Sony takes the "Smart TV" concept one step further, and integrates with the Amazon Alexa service for voice control.
55-inch LG OLED 4K UHD TV for $1,499 (List: $2,299)
When it comes to contrast, the deep blacks achieved with OLED are hard to match. Unfortunately, large OLED screens like this 55-inch set from LG used to be super expensive, but they've come down quickly as demand has grown in the last year or so. With major discounts like this, OLED TVs are opening up to a whole new segment of the market.
65-inch Samsung Curved QLED 4K UHD TV for $2,219.99 (List: $2,897.99)
Of course, 55-inch TVs don't suit everyone's needs, so it's worth giving this 65-inch 4K TV from Samsung some attention. Combine the large size with the curvature of the screen, and you've got a television that can engulf your whole view. If you're looking for immersion, this might fit the bill.
65-inch Samsung 4K UHD TV with a $200 Dell eGift Card for $999.99 (List: $1,299.99)
If you desire the scale of a 65-inch model without the curves, this flat Samsung is a rock-solid deal. It doesn't have the same high-end QLED lighting as the model above, but it is much more affordable.
75-inch Samsung QLED 4K UHD TV for $3,497.99 (List: $3,997.99)
Is 65 inches still not enough? Step up to this 75-inch model, and you'll have a true home theater experience. Not only will you benefit from incredible image quality with a QLED display, but the built-in cable management and no-gap wall mount support will help your set-up look truly professional.
Note: Terms and conditions apply. Price, stock, and shipping details may fluctuate. See the individual sites for more information.

Q: Find the most recent entry for each item listed in a log file (e.g. last logged on user in login history) I have a spreadsheet with column A containing a list of computers, column B contains a user that has logged on to that computer and column C is the logon date for that user. Many computers have been logged on to by various users over the last year, so there are many records for each computer. I need to find for each computer the user who has logged on most recently and the logon date.

A: In column D, create an "IsLastUser?" column. In D2 type:
=IF(MAX(($A$2:$A$1000=A2)*($C$2:$C$1000))=C2,TRUE,FALSE)

It is an array formula, so be sure to type it using "CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER" and not just "ENTER". Now add a filter, and filter for all IsLastUser? = TRUE.
If this fails, make sure Excel recognises your date column as a valid date format. You can test this with e.g. =YEAR(C2)

Nico Mallozzi is one of 27 people under the age of 20 already dead of this year's flu strain.
I noted that this year's flu season was likely to be harsh, especially in the wake of an ineffective vaccine and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention classifying it as "moderately severe" and anticipating over 50,000 deaths.
However, numbers and statistics are meaningless when a parent loses a child over a "simple case of the flu". This year's flu has claimed a number of young lives already.
California is being hit particularly hard, with reports of at least 27 deaths of people under the age of 65 in the state since October.
The virus that's predominating this year is Influenza A (H3N2), and that tends to be more severe. It affects the elderly and the very young, epidemiologist Lynnette Brammer, who leads the CDC's Domestic Influenza Surveillance Team, told Fox News.
Mimma Mallozzi, the mother of 10-year-old Nico, shared her grief over his death due to flu-induced sepsis, as a warning to others about that nature of this disease.
Nico came down with what seemed like an average case of the flu last week. Though he was sick, he seemed well enough to accompany his hockey team, the Connecticut RoughRiders, to a weekend tournament in New York, the New Canaan News reports. While in New York, however, Nico's health took a sudden turn.
"He progressively got worse," Mallozzi remembers. "I didn't like the way he looked." Mallozzi called 911 on the family's way home from the tournament, and Nico was taken to a New York hospital. On Sunday, he died from sepsis resulting from pneumonia — a complication of the flu, according to the New York medical examiner's office.
What is particularly troubling is how quickly this version of the flu ravaged the health of robust young people in good condition. The deaths of a 21-year-old bodybuilder in Pennsylvania and a 40-year-old California marathoner have been widely reported and have raised concerns about this year's flu strain.
The 2018 flu season marks the centennial anniversary of the pandemic known as the Spanish Influenza. One of the hallmarks of this strain was the way it turned the infected person's immune system against itself. The notorious virus is suspected to have triggered a "cytokine storm", which eventually causes a fatal case of pneumonia and tends to target people with stronger immune systems.
A cytokine storm is an overproduction of immune cells and their activating compounds (cytokines), which, in a flu infection, is often associated with a surge of activated immune cells into the lungs. The resulting lung inflammation and fluid buildup can lead to respiratory distress and can be contaminated by a secondary bacterial pneumonia—often enhancing the mortality in patients.
This little-understood phenomenon is thought to occur in at least several types of infections and autoimmune conditions, but it appears to be particularly relevant in outbreaks of new flu variants. Cytokine storm is now seen as a likely major cause of mortality in the 1918-20 "Spanish flu"—which killed more than 50 million people worldwide—and the H1N1 "swine flu" and H5N1 "bird flu" of recent years.
In these epidemics, the patients most likely to die were relatively young adults with apparently strong immune reactions to the infection—whereas ordinary seasonal flu epidemics disproportionately affect the very young and the elderly.
New findings indicate that the standard recommendations for flu prevention may not be enough, as the virus is transmitted via airborne exposures more readily than first thought.
The study — which included researchers from San Jose State University and UC Berkeley — provides new evidence for the potential importance of the flu's airborne transmission because of the large quantities of infectious virus researchers found in the exhaled breath from people suffering from flu.
Sheryl Ehrman, dean of the College of Engineering at San Jose State University, said in a statement.
In conclusion, follow the CDC prevention guidelines, pay attention to outbreaks where you live and avoid those venues, and don't dismiss prolonged high fevers or other unusual symptoms as "just the flu".
My heart goes out to these grieving people.
My parents (God rest them) lost near and dear ones to the great influenza of 1919.
I know I am gonna get flamed for this, WTF were the parents of that kid and his coaches thinking letting him go on a trip when he was sick? I am a School Nurse and if you don't look like you feel good you don't go on trips. (Yes the coaches hate my guts, but on well.) WTH were these people thinking?
Now with this going around we are going to crack down even harder. Our usual rule is you must be fever free for 24 hours without medication to reduce fever. We are gonna move that to 48 hours, possibly 72 depending on what our Medical Director says.
Yea, the flu caused this kids death, but sending him on an unnecessary trip out of state only added to it and that is on the parents and coaches.
You aren't going to get flamed by me Gremlin1974. I'm a medical scientist and I couldn't agree with you more. There is no such thing as "just the flu" this year. Worse when you go out in public you are exposing everyone around you to the flu.
I'm very sorry that these parents lost their precious child, but allowing him to travel to New York was a very irresponsible thing to do, not only for the child but for all the people that he exposed to a very dangerous disease.
I wish you had been my kids' middle school nurse! She wouldn't send kids home (or even call the parents) unless the child was running a fever of at least 101. (And throwing up didn't count if there was no fever.) I got in a lot of trouble for keeping them home if there was any hint they were sick, because I came home once to a seriously ill child who had been stuck at school all day and couldn't call me until they had gotten off the bus.
I hate to think what might happen this year if she was still a practicing nurse.
of course this isn't a contest to see who can claim the worst spot, but i take issue with the statement that "California is being hit particularly hard" – the middle of the country is being hit much harder. top 10 states for flu activity according to this index are currently Texas, Iowa, Tennessee, Arkansas, Nebraska, North Carolina, Idaho, Wisconsin, Montana, Oklahoma.
That map seems to be at odds with the article, which states "California is being hit particularly hard". Maybe illegals don't shop at Walgreen's?
California is an entire state full of drama queens. 200 people get sick, 20 million people have fainting spells to show how much everyone should feel sorry for them. 2 million people get sick in Texas, we deal with it and do the best we can without whining to the world about it.
I don't know what is happening this year but it is bad.I love in North Louisiana. The first of December a patient told me he had been very ill, but could not tell much more. He was ok so we requested records and arranged for the next visit. I washed up and went home as it was the end of the day. 24 hours later I was having fever, sweats , cough and hurting like stink. Went to the local doc in a box and they would not treat me as I was too sick. Went to the ER and did not have a no and was found with renal failure, carditis, bilateral pneumoia, stroke multiple abscess and a number of other issues. Spent a week in ICU. So that is the nature of what is happening.
"Went to the ER and did not have a no…" Explain, please.
Sorry,that is a kindle. In the ER I did not have a bp. In short O was dying and had been very healthy a day before.
those are the kind of symptoms that were common with the Spanish Influenza of 1918. Maybe 20 million dead, no one knows for sure.
I'm glad you pulled through – sounds horrific.
North Louisiana – you're just 100 miles from what has been the epicenter since mid december.
I capitulated and got a Flu shot this year. I wash my hands after going into town, too.
Get the pneumonia shot as well.
I carry Alcohol gel everywhere.
The flu shot this year is useless. The thing to understand about the flu vaccine is that it is predictive – based on the "best guess" (seriously a guess) of what the flu strain will be a year and a half down the road. It takes time to develop the vaccine and manufacture it in large quantities. Some years they guess pretty closely and other years they miss it by a mile. This years is a total miss.
RE the pneumonia vaccine, that vaccine is intended to prevent BACTERIAL pneumonia, which is due to a specific bacteria. The pneumonia that results from the flu is viral pneumonia – a totally different thing. Having the pneumonia vaccine will not prevent viral pneumonia.
I think the real problem here Granny is that the pattern studies they use to develop the yearly shot haven't been updated since the 1950's.
I had the flu. Noticed symptoms new years eve. Lots of dry hacking/coughing. I thought at first that I had inhaled a speck of dust and my lungs were simply trying to expel it. I woke up teh next day feeling terrible and slept almost through to the next day. The odd thing about this version of flu? I only had a nasty fever with mild joint/headache – felt totally exhausted going from couch to bathroom. I had no other symptoms like vomiting or GI tract problems. Just exhausted to the bone. Seven days later I felt 95% much better – still felt a bit weak though.
This year's flu shot isn't totally useless, it just matches some not all of the flu that's going around. It seems like the one that's making people really sick is not one of the ones that it matches exactly.
I'm hearing miserable coughing and wheezing sounds throughout my building and through the walls (the new construction is crap). I believe I caught it, ( the air vents are all connected) but have only been tired w some headaches, I haven't had the throat and stomach misery I hear all around. So far.
I got the flu shot in September.
Stop giving people a false sense of security by giving them a shot that is 10% effective. Tell them to wash their hands and stay home if they are sick.
There is reasonable evidence that even if it doesn't "prevent" you from getting a certain type of flu, just having the shot on board can actually reduce the severity of the strain of flu you might end up with.
My grandfather's first wife died in the Spanish Flu epidemic in 1918. His sister was a domestic who had Sundays and Thursdays off. When she visited my grandfather and his wife on Sunday, everything was fine, but by Thursday when she had her next day off, my grandfather's wife was dead. It was that sudden.
On the other side of the family, my grandfather, his sister, and his BIL also had the Spanish flu, but evidently my grandfather and his sister had moderate cases. His BIL, however, had it more severely, complete with febrile hallucinations and whatnot. All survived, though. Despite tending to all the others who were stricken, my grandmother did not get sick at all, nor did her young niece, even though both were in close contact with the others. At first my grandmother had worn a face mask, but she quit using it after the first day, complaining that it restricted her breathing too much and was therefore rather uncomfortable. She found it remarkable that both she and the young girl (< 3 YO) escaped without contracting the flu, especially since it was nigh impossible to keep a youngster at that age completely isolated from her sick parents.


Traveling to the orchards, swamplands, and paddy fields of Mekong Delta in Vietnam enable tourists to forget their daily stress. The Delta is the rice bowl of Vietnam or the agricultural miracle which holds the irreplaceable roles in the country's economy.
Due to the region's diversity, a tour to Mekong Delta is extremely memorable. The idyllic scenes are featured with the peasants on farms, children riding on the water buffalo's back, students wearing ao dai, market vendors, and rowing boats on the maze of channels.
While Tien Giang and Vinh Long are perfect for boat trips, Ben Tre is renowned for the rich fruit orchards, especially with coconuts. Meanwhile, Dong Thap is ideal for the bird lovers as well as the river enthusiasts and the colorful flower specialists. The fantastic appeal for the idyllic beauty is what many individuals need to stay happy throughout their Mekong Delta Tours and Travels in Vietnam.
As the delta's largest city, Can Tho is the must-visit tourist destination. Just spending a day or two in Can Tho and you will soon realize the fact that this city has the full competence to please the visitors with hotels, restaurants, attractions, floating markets, etc. When you move further to Mui Ca Mau, the southernmost tip of Vietnam, your journey will be fulfilled with the authentic bird sanctuary and mangroves.
If you hold passions for the Mekong Delta Festivals, the animated Oc Om Bok Festival entertains you much. What's more, do not miss the prosperous town of Chau Doc and Sam Mountain, where the annual religious festival is held, namely Ba Chua Xu Temple Festival.
Your journey to the fertile regions is facilitated with a wide means of transport, and boats are most common and most traditional. Therefore, you should always never miss experiencing a boat trip around the Mekong canals and its essentials around.
The best time to explore the delta is the dry season, which lasts from December to May. Due to the seasonal flooding, the region changes its face regularly. Every time you pay it a visit, it will surprise you with various new experiences and activities. It promises to offer the idyllic backgrounds for you all to photograph and sightsee. The Delta feeds much of the whole country with rice, tropical fruits and flowers. You're always welcomed to savor them at any time you're ready enjoy Mekong Delta Tours.

Along with looking to sign a "whale," the Heat need to improve their 3-point shooting this offseason.
One free agent who could help Miami in this area is stretch power forward Ryan Anderson. At 28-years-old, Anderson is set to become an unrestricted free agent in July after spending the past four seasons with New Orleans.

It's not a coincidence that the two teams – Cleveland and Golden State — that made the most 3-point shots this season are facing off in the 2016 Finals. The NBA has evolved into a league that values the 3-point shot more than ever.
The Heat have some catching up to do in that department, though. Miami finished last season ranked 27th in the NBA in 3-point field goal percentage at 33.6 percent.
How can the Heat improve their 3-point shooting this offseason? Here are five players set to become free agents in July who can help Miami. Continue reading "Five free agents who can improve Miami Heat's 3-point shooting"

The Post's NBA ballot: Sixth Man Award
Andre Iguodala was the premiere bench player in the league this year. (Getty Images)
The sixth man can be a game-changer for NBA teams, and there were several starting-caliber threats coming off the bench this season.
The Palm Beach Post had a vote in this year's Sixth Man Award, and here were the picks:
1. Andre Iguodala, Golden State
2. Ryan Anderson, New Orleans
3. Will Barton, Denver
Iguodala averaged 27 minutes per game off the bench for the Warriors this year and was part of the deadliest lineup in the game. He is a lockdown defender with the versatility to play multiple positions at both ends of the court and would be a starter on most teams.
His averages of seven points, four rebounds and 3.4 assists per game are nothing spectacular, but he shot 47.8 percent from the field and 35.1 percent on 3-pointers. He averaged a plus/minus of plus-7.0 per game this year.

Chalmers gets his wish: Downtown from O-Town
Mario Chalmers made it no secret.
He wanted an invite to the All-Star Three Point Contest in Orlando on Feb. 25, and he didn't think it should matter that teammates had already agreed to defend.
Chalmers kept connecting from three, and got the call. He and Jones will be part of a six-man field that includes Ryan Anderson (who will be the crowd favorite), Joe Johnson, Anthony Morrow and Kevin Love.
Sixth in the league in three-point accuracy (46.3 percent) with more makes than all those above him, Chalmers actually should have a decent shot to win the contest. He doesn't rely too much on his legs to shoot, which could keep him from getting tired. And he's always handled pressure well, from Kansas to the NBA Finals. He's become lethal at shooting from the corner, a shot he never had to attempt in college, and two of the five ball racks will be placed in those spots.
Jones didn't plan to participate, but the increased appearance fee changed his mind.
And no, there aren't any Celtics in the competition this time. Jones beat Ray Allen and Paul Pierce in the Finals last February in L.A., but Allen said he would skip the event if he wasn't also in the All-Star Game.

The 4th of July is the most American holiday ever, right? It's filled with stereotypes of American foods: hot dogs, hamburgers, potato salad and apple pie. But, hold on, plot twist — those 4th of July foods aren't really American.
It turns out that none of these foods are American, but instead come from all over the world. Since the country is a melting pot, it makes perfect sense that our food is, too. Here are seven foods that technically weren't originally made in America, but we still love them anyway.
This summer classic is not American in the least. According to the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council, there are varying claims to the original dog, from Coburg to Vienna to Frankfurt. Sadly, it certainly wasn't invented in New York or Chicago.
This classic hot dog topping is probably one of the oldest condiments in the world. It started off in Egypt before traveling across the world and landing on your burger. But it hasn't always been used for food — here are some non-culinary uses for mustard that will take you back.
Even though it seems that the 4th of July is built on hamburgers, its origins come from the Mongols. It was then brought to Germany where the ground meat was formed into patties and cooked, hence being called a "Hamburg Steak." Starting to get disgruntled? This 4th of July try this homemade all-American-style burger.
We've all heard the saying "American as Apple Pie," but how accurate is that really? Turns out, not in the slightest. The first recipe for apple pie is in a 14th century cookbook and is far from your grandma's apple pie. The pie crust was basically a container for the baked fruits and didn't even include sugar.
The traditional German potato salad is served warm with oil, vinegar and herbs. Once it made it to the States, however, is when mayonnaise was added and it became the staple side dish of countless BBQs.
Believe it or not, most of the history of ketchup is tomato-free. Starting in 300 BC, ketchup was made in China as a fermented fish sauce, and then in the 18th century Britain created countless varieties. But it took until 1812 for the first tomato ketchup recipe to be published, and now 97 percent of Americans say that they have tomato ketchup in their fridge.
Guacamole started out as an ancient Aztec spread, which caught the eye of the Spanish colonialists. Since then it has become more and more popular with each passing year. It almost broke the internet when Chipotle released its official guacamole recipe in May 2015, perfect for pre-BBQ snacks if you ask me.
So, who else is confused on what to eat to celebrate the 4th of July? Well, it turns out these foods are perfect for the summer holiday because they celebrate the melting pot of American culture. All of these different cuisines and cultures come together to create 4th of July foods, showing the true strength (and deliciousness) of our country.

gulftoday.ae | No (k)need to go abroad.
DUBAI: Ten UAE residents have recently undergone knee replacement surgeries under the auspices of the Ministry of Health (MoH), and conducted by a noted knee replacement surgeon from England at a government hospital in Dubai.Eight of the 10 underwent total knee replacement operations while the other two had partial knee replacements at the Al Baraha Hospital.
Knee replacement or knee arthroplasty "is a surgical procedure to replace the weight-bearing surfaces of the knee joint to relieve the pain and disability of osteoarthritis. It may be performed for other knee diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis," according to Wikipedia.
Lead surgeon was Dr Graham Sefton of the Harrogate Hospital in North Yorkshire, who was assisted by the Al Baraha Hospital-Orthopaedics Department head Dr Mohamed Fouad and his team.
Sefton is among nine medical consultants from distinguished medical institutions in England, Russia and Egypt, invited by the MoH to conduct surgery and treatments to both Emirati and expatriate residents across the country until next month.
Sefton saw 40 patients at Al Baraha during his visit until May 18.
Quoting hospital director Ahmed Obaid Al Khadeem, an MoH press statement released on Tuesday said all patients began physiotherapy sessions on the third day after the surgeries.
The patients were relieved of lingering chronic pain.
They expressed joy that there is a government programme aimed at helping individuals across the UAE get the best medical and health services, without going overseas which might have become more expensive.
The knee replacement or knee arthroplasty project at the Al Baraha hospital is ongoing and according to Al Khadeem, on queue are 12 Emiratis.
He explained to The Gulf Today what osteoarthritis is, when he talked about knee injuries related to sports leading to the July 27 to Aug. 12, 2012 London Olympics, in an earlier interview.
As for the knee injuries related to sports "due to contact" and common among young sportsmen, Abaub advised not to forget the necessary warm-ups.
He stressed that trainers must be well-versed in sports injuries.
Abaub added that sportsmen must "stop playing, seek advice and take a rest for at least a couple of days" once knee injuries are sustained.

Disabled model stars in Debenhams ad campaign.
UK high Street store Debenhams broke a fashion taboo today by using a disabled model in its latest ad campaign.
Shannon Murray, 32, who has been confined to a wheelchair since breaking her neck in her teens is the new star of a new fashion campaign for Principles by Ben de Lisi.
Photographs of Shannon will be now displayed in Debenhams' shop windows and online.
She said: "I think this is a fabulous step forward by Debenhams and I'm proud to be part of such a big move towards positive representation of disability in high street fashion."
Clair Lewis, from the Direct Action Network, said: 'As long as the campaign is more than just a brief moment of tokenism then I think it should be welcomed,' she said.
The campaign follows hot on the heels of Debenhams using size 16 mannequins in its windows.

The National – brooding but anthemic indie rockers
Brooklyn-based outfit The National gradually achieved chart-topping success with a brooding but anthemic sound that combined classic Americana, country and chamber pop with contemporary indie and art-rock. To experience their unique sound live on stage, you can both buy and sell The National tickets on StubHub.
From garage punk beginnings to the Grammys
Formed from the ashes of garage punk band Nancy in 1999, The National's original line-up consisted of frontman Matt Berninger, guitarist Aaron Dessner, bassist Scott Devendorf and his drummer brother Bryan. The Brooklyn-based quartet released their self-titled debut in 2001 before following it up two years later with "Sad Songs for Dirty Lovers", by which point Dessner's sibling Bryce had joined the fold, and then third release "Alligator" in 2005. The National scored their first Billboard 200 entry in 2007 with the more expansive-sounding "Boxer", and in 2010 they worked with the likes of Bon Iver's Justin Vernon, Sufjan Stevens and Arcade Fire's Richard Reed on fifth LP, "High Violet". The group's collaborative streak continued when St. Vincent and Sharon Van Etten contributed to 2013's "Trouble Will Find Me". And after pursuing various side projects including LNZNDRF, EL VY and Pfarmers, the band regrouped for 2017's "Sleep Well Beast", a Grammy-winning affair that also topped the UK charts and peaked at No. 2 in the US. Their eighth LP, "I Am Easy to Find", hit the shelves in 2019. Check out the range of The National tickets now on offer on StubHub.
One of the indie-rock scene's most compelling frontmen
In Matt Berninger, The National produced one of the modern indie-rock scene's most compelling live performers. Whether wandering into the crowd to take selfies with fans or falling to his knees on stage while delivering his highly confessional and cathartic lyrics, the Ohio native quickly gained a reputation as being a thoroughly engaging presence. Of course, he's also perfectly complemented by the tight-knit musicianship of his bandmates and the various guests that help to bolster The National's quietly epic sound, with backing vocalists Pauline de Lassus and Kate Stables plus a seven-piece string section a regular part of the set-up over many years. Audiences should look forward to hearing a mixture of singles, key album tracks and fan favourites including US AAA Top 10 hits "The System Only Dreams In Total Darkness", "Day I Die" and "You Had Your Soul With You". If you haven't yet experienced the band in their element, take a look at the various The National tickets now available on StubHub.

In my previous post, Coding Standards Revisited: My Language Agnostic Coding Standards, I talked about some non-traditional language agnostic coding standards that I believe apply to all code on all (modern) frameworks, languages, and platforms. In today's post I want to talk specifically about some standards that can increase (or decrease if ignored) the readability of your code. As I've argued before maintainability is crucial in the craft of software development.
So let's talk about a few readability coding standards that I like to use. When adhered to they greatly increase the readability, and therefore maintainability, of your code.
Use meaningful names. x is not meaningful. client is not meaningful. provider is not meaningful. Chose names that are specific to the domain you are in. Chose names that clearly define the value of the variable. For example rowIndex is more meaningful than x.
DO NOT use shorthand for variable names. Shorthand assumes that you have a shared context from which the shorthand was generated. It becomes difficult for members of other teams or new team members to read your code if you use shorthand.
DO NOT use _ to denote private variables. The English language doesn't use _'s to start words. So starting variable names with _ causes the brain to do more work in recognizing the pattern. I would strongly suggest casing your private variables the same as function variables and differentiating them using keywords like this or self if your language supports them.
If there is one place I am willing to break from the language standard for my own standard it's with constants. I usually use all caps for constants whether they're private or public. I've found that even developers that haven't been traditionally exposed to this style can figure it out intuitively pretty quickly.
With that said, if your language does provide a standard for how Constants are defined you should try to first adhere to that already defined standard.
I make all member variables private. Even variables that may be subject to change from outside influence. Exposing private variables as public or even protected means that the state of your class can change without the class having an opportunity to respond to the state change. This is often the cause of bugs in the system (hard to find bugs at that).
Define get or set methods for your class if your really have to expose the value of a member variable. Having a set method allows the class to control the change and therefore giving it an opportunity to keep it's internal state consistent.
Some languages provide syntactic sugar for the get/set methods and should be preferred to more explicit get/set methods.
Use curly braces according to the standards of the language you're writing in. Don't just arbitraily put curly braces on their own line or on the line of the block their defining. Different languages have different standards for curly brace style. In fact, some languages support curly braces but use the convention of not including them except in specific scenarios.
It's better to deal with uncomfortably in looking at curly braces than it is for you to be non-standard. In my experience I've found that it really only takes a week or two to get used to the curly brace style of the language you're using.
There's nothing more annoying then checking in code for a one line change only to notice that the diff shows 500 lines changed. What happened? You, or the person who last touched this file, is using a different standard for whitespace. Nowadays, most IDE's auto-format the code for you. So even if you don't change a line of code the whitespace may change to bring the file into conformance with whatever your IDE preferences have been set at.
Define your use of whitespace such that a standard developer for that language would expect them. If there is no guidance for your language on whitespace choose the use the default for the most common editor or IDE for that language.
