Advisors Asset Management Launches Disruptive Technology Themed ETF
James Comtois
Advisors Asset Management announced on Tuesday the launch of the AAM Transformers ETF (NYSE Arca: TRFM), AAM's first thematic ETF.
TRFM seeks to track the investment results of the Pence Transformers Index, a rules-based methodology that aims to target companies whose products and services show compelling potential to transform consumer behavior, technological innovation, and the global economy. The fund targets companies that have the proven ability to develop transformative technologies.
Portfolio companies are specifically screened for spending towards research and development. R&D spending is a vital factor for a company striving to adapt and innovate for the future. TRFM also screens for companies that are expected to sustain stronger sales and capex growth relative to their respective industries.
"While new technologies are being introduced all the time, not all of them will be disruptive. It takes a specific investment approach and process to identify companies that have the potential to be disruptive," said Lance McGray, managing director and head of ETF product at AAM, in a news release announcing the fund launch. "We feel that TRFM's distinct investment process, paired with the low-cost, tax-efficient ETF wrapper, may be a great solution for growth seeking investors."
TRFM is AAM's sixth installment to its ETF suite, which has grown nearly 55% year-to-date. As a firm, AAM has provided financial professionals with sound investment solutions for over 40 years. For additional information on AAM's ETF solutions, visit http://www.aamlive.com/ETF.

Including hard data to back up arguments is an important skill for students to develop. Moreover, statistics are sometimes difficult to absorb meaningfully: as Josef Stalin famously said, "One death is a tragedy: a million, merely a statistic". To help students memorise and reflect upon key statistics more effectively, encourage them to represent them visually.
The impact of apartheid on black South Africans is difficult to comprehend. So I provide students with some essential statistics about apartheid and then challenge them to convert them into an 'infographic' (for example, using an online tool like Piktochart, Canva or Infogr.am).
Blacks were only given 13% of land – designated as "Homelands" – despite being 80% of the population.
There was very little arable farm land in the Homelands. For example, only 15% of the Ciskei was arable, 89% of Ciskei children suffered from malnutrition.
None of the Homelands had significant mineral resources.
A survey by the Lawyers Committee for Human Rights found that 83% of all detainees held by South African government authorities had been physically abused.
The wages of Whites were 8X that of Blacks.
According to The Economist, on average 50,000 children died every year during apartheid from the effects of malnutrition, while South Africa exported over $1 billion worth of food annually.
The major cause of death for black children in South Africa was disease brought on by malnutrition: for white children the major cause of death was swimming pool accidents.
Only 3% of practicing doctors in South Africa were Bantu (black). Infant mortality among rural blacks was 282 per 1,000 births while among whites 12 per 1,000.
According to the South African Council of Churches, 3. 5 million Bantu were forcibly removed from "white" South Africa to the Homelands after 1960.
Families were frequently broken up with the men working in factories located in areas designated "white." By law, 97% of black South African mine workers had to be migrant laborers, they were prohibited from bringing their families with them.
The government spent over seven times as much to educate a white child as it spent to educate a black child.
On average, there was one teacher in each white South African school for every 18 students. In black schools the ratio was one teacher for every 43 students.
If you were white in South Africa, you could expect to live 72.3 years. Bantu could expect to live 58.9 years. Coloreds lived an average of 56.1 years and Indians, 63.9 years.
The completed infographics can form the basis of an excellent classroom display. To make this more interactive, challenge students to match each infographic on display to the key statistic from the list which it represents (this is particularly effective if the infographics include no text, merely images).

UN/FEMA Prisoner Boxcars With Shackles, Guillotines, And the NWO AGENDA for "AMERIKA".
UN/FEMA Prisoner Boxcars With Shackles, Guillotines, And the NWO AGENDA for "AMERIKA"NO LONGER Considered "URBAN LEGEND"
Since 1996, I have been consistently traveling, investigating, documenting and reporting that there are thousands of prisoner boxcars with shackles,manufactured out of Portland, OR, by GUNDERSON STEEL FABRICATION (plus other separate boxcar manufacturing companies/operations located nationwide.)
Through numerous contacts, including CIA/Naval Intel and other sources, it has been confirmed personally to me that there are numerous covert"FEMA/HOMELAND SECURITY concentration camps" located across America, Canada and Alaska for the hour of martial law and the seizure of this nation for the New World Order.
Many of these camps are actual termination facilities, some equipped with gassing/crematory facilities. Some of these facilities are also incorporated into the military's DUMB's (deep underground military facilities.)
From sources inside the CIA, it was revealed to me that these numerous camps have been established to detain and ultimately terminate what they consistently referred to as "the resisters of the New World Order."(Michael Maholy, 20 years CIA/Naval Intelligence;confirmed independently by Elaine, former CIA assassin/NWO agenda planner.)
"Oh, all of us in the intelligence community know about the concentration camps and their purposes…we ALL know that they are to TERMINATE THE RESISTERS OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER UNDER MARTIAL LAW."(CIA/ONI Michael Maholy.)
But what IS a resister of the New World Order? The definition our "friendly" US government has applied will surprise you!
A "NWO resister" includes:
-A Christian (firm Bible believer)
-A Constitutionalist-A Patriot
-A gun owner who refuse to relinquish 2nd Amendment rights-Anyone who adheres to the concepts of maintaining our national sovereignty,the Constitution and rejects the concept of United Nations world government control in its place is labeled by the government as a "resister of the New World Order."
-Those radio broadcasters, lecturers, authors, and pastors who publicly come against the New World Order.Have you ever listened to alternate news radio broadcasts exposing the NWO? They a real telling America the truth about the New World Order and it's dark agenda for America via the UN/martial law agenda.
And every independent reporter, including myself, knows that they are irrevocably marked for persecution under the NWO/martial law agenda our nation is now entering into. People like them are the more open and obvious examples of "resisters of the NWO."
Even now, listed silently in classified government/military/intelligence community computers are the names of millions of fellow American Patriots ALREADY PROFILED as "resisters of the NWO."
Such people have been marked for priority arrest, transport to these modern concentration camps (under FEMA or military jurisdiction,) interrogation in some cases,and ultimately termination for many.
Interrogation?"Are you a member of the militia? Who is your leader? Where are your secret cells located? How many secret weapons caches do you have?"Or, "Who is your Pastor? Where are your food supplies hidden? How many belong to your prayer group?"Etc.
The CIA and the military have been secretly perfecting both mind control drugs and torture techniques designed to force compliance or to be used in interrogation sessions.I have been personally informed by former CIA planners of the NWO agenda under martial law that those arrested can anticipate "…brutal rape, torture and death once they are arrested and taken to the camps!"
ALSO READ-MAIN CORE: GOVT. "THREAT LIST" NAMES AT LEAST 8 MILLION AMERICANS WHO WILL BE DETAINED WHEN MARTIAL LAW IS IMPOSED
I know the credibility of these sources and I do not make these statements lightly. The people whom I have interviewed on this subject have been part of the "inner planning"of the coming New World order takeover for years.They know of what they speak. As one former CIA admitted, "I even helped design the blueprints for some of these camps.
And although NOW I greatly regret my role, the camps stand to this day and will be activated under martial law."It was then that this source paused, looked intently into my eyes and revealed,""…I tell you, it will be brutal rape, torture and death once they are arrested and taken to the camps…"
One person who worked with military planners for NWO takeover admitted to me during an interview,"We NWO satanists sat around discussing how long we could prolong the lives of arrested Christians under torture until they finally expired. We came up with 11-13 days."
This source exposing the NWO agenda, CISCO WHEELER, has written several books onthis subject, including CIA/military torture/mind control drugs testing and their victims,and whose father was a military participant in all this.
Why Martial Law Is Coming Quickly – All the Signs Indicate It's Coming Soon-Here Are Facts That You Should Know About-Article HERE:https://amg-news.com/why-martial-law-is-coming-quickly-all-the-signs-indicate-its-coming-soon/
Gepostet von Patricia Irons am Freitag, 16. November 2018
Particularly hated by the NWO agenda are Christians who, for Bible-based reasons, will refuse to participate in their Luciferi based NWO.Former Satanists/Illuminati, who are the backbone of the NWO, have admitted this to me repeatedly. And this is the reason why Christians will be considered a major target for arrest and removal as NWO takeover progresses in America.
How many times must I emphasize this to wake up the churches in America???
I have interviewed victim-survivors of the CIA/military torture practice sessions in facilities such as China Lake Naval Ordnance Research facility. Neither infants nor children were spared the horrors of such brutal testing…testing that left many of the mei ther dead or scarred for life.
Those "resisters of the NWO" who are not speedily terminated at the many gassing/cremating or microwaving facilities across America,Canada and Alaska may instead be diverted to facilities such as those located in deep underground military bases for human experimentation UNTIL THEY EXPIRE.(Remember Joseph Mengele and the Nazi doctors? Sadly, history DOES repeat itself.)
Or turned over to Satanist covens for human sacrifice cannon fodder. I have inside basis and independent, repeat confirmations for each and every statement I have just made.
-EYE WITNESS SIGHTINGS OF PRISONER BOXCARS WITH SHACKLES-
I have interviewed many eye-witnesses to these prisoner boxcars. There are several varieties of prisoner boxcars, ranging from all new, metal, modern versions higher than average boxcars to refurbished older boxcars. Some versions have the modern guillotines (imported from Japan and China) installed in them, others do not. But ALL have shackles installed to restrain prisoners.
One variety of prisoner boxcars has been imported from China, in the form of 40 foot cargo containers, with shackles installed and a modern guillotine at the head of each one.Their TRUE intentions are easily concealed from public scrutiny and have no windows. For all practical purposes, they appear to be normal Chinese cargo containers (like HANJIN, COSCO, etc.) that can be piggybacked on train flatbeds or trucks.
It has been reported to me by NWO agenda investigator Lee Harrington that originally 20,000 of these prisoner cargo containers were ordered from China. These were ordered under secret contract through one cooperating Congressman who met with officials in China. (And you WONDER why NWO supporters like Clinton and Bush Sr. and Jr. have had"love affairs" with China??? China, through supplying these prisoner boxcars, has just enabled them to more speedily terminate the hatedresisters of their New World Order!)
Some prisoner boxcars have been observed in Montana, at one point near Columbia Falls in the Glacier area.Personal friends taking a missionary journey across America stumbled upon them during a picture-taking expedition in the forest near Columbia Falls. My friend Marie McCullough recounted,
"We were following the railroad tracks into the forest, so that we would not get lost and could find out way out. We were surprised as we followed them deeper into the woods to discover boxcars, looking out of place and all painted black.Suspicious, we decided to look inside one if we could. We saw one that had a door partially open.
We struggled to slide it open all the way, and when our eyes adjusted to the dark interior, what we saw shocked us. There were rows of shackles installed in the boxcar. My friend Rose pointed to the end of the boxcar and I said, 'Rose, what IS that?'""She replied,
'Why, Marie, don't you SEE what that is??? IT IS A GUILLOTINE!'
"We were frightened by then, and decided to follow the railroad tracks and leave the area. When we returned to our host's home and shared what we had seen, they got angry and told us, 'we WARNED you to stay away from that area! It has guards with rifles…you could have gotten killed!'"
READ MORE–FEMA ORDERED 102,000 BOXCARS WITH SHACKLES AND GUILLOTINES – WHY ARE MODERN GUILLOTINES ON MILITARY BASES THROUGHOUT NORTH AMERICA?
Marie admits she is under government surveillance and her phone is constantly monitored…simply for discovering a deadly NWO secret.When I finally traveled to Montana to investigate, I encountered Patriots in Columbia Falls who admitted that, while hunting in the northern wilderness above Glacier, they had stumbled on these boxcars on remote sidetracks as well. (They also encountered Russian soldiers in training with American military counterparts.)
I also met with Lee Harrington of Vallier, MT, former military liaison officer and later a metal worker who admitted that there had been a "boxcar with shackles" operation in Glasgow, MT that employed summer youth workers one year to help weld shackles into boxcars.
From there, they were shipped west along Highway 2, through Cut Bank and on to remote areas around Glacier to remain concealed on remote sidetracks until the hour of martial law takeover and their grim deployment. (These are the older boxcars that have been refurbished and painted black.)
One eye-witness from the Cut Bank Indian reservation personally observed these boxcars as they slowly passed through his reservation, noting the doors on some still open and the shackles plainly in view. Disturbed about what he saw, he reported this to a Montana Christian intercessors' group, which reported this to me in person in Bozeman, MT.
I personally observed, while investigating in White Fish near Kalispell in the Glacier area, frequent trains arriving with the Chinese 40 foot cargo containers on board,double stacked, all pulled by BURLINGTON NORTHERN/SANTA FE. While I realized that many could be legitimately filled with consumer goods, I also knew that others could be the deadly prisoner boxcar cargo containers. It was impossible to tell one from the other.
People who know this dark truth reported to me with alarm that many of these 40 foot cargo containers have been seen building up at Long Beach Naval Shipyards, which has been turned over to the Chinese. Knowing the role that Chinese troops will play against American resisters of the NWO/UN takeover (through the Trilateral Alliance Treaty secret agreement with China to deploy their troops against Americans offering resistance under martial law,) they are suspicious as to their nature.

Locals Participate in United Way Fitness Program, Lose Over 900 Pounds
Locals Participate in United Way Fitness Program,
Lose Over 900 Pounds
In January 2016, United Way of St. Charles began Get Fit United, a 12-week health and fitness program designed to create lasting, meaningful changes in the lives of participants, at no cost to them. Through its partnership with Ochsner Corporate Wellness and Anytime Fitness, Get Fit United offers comprehensive health screenings (pre and post), weekly nutrition classes, small group personal training, unlimited gym membership, and personalized virtual training.
The first class of Get Fit United completed the initial 12-week program in the spring of 2016. The group of 38 participants lost 329.8 total pounds and saw improvements in every health category from cholesterol to waist circumference.
This group of highly motivated individuals continues to meet monthly at the United Way of St. Charles office in Luling and has lost an additional 132 pounds through the maintenance portion of the program.
"While creating Get Fit United, we knew we wanted to not only help people lose weight but also permanently change their health and subsequently, their family's health," stated John Dias, Executive Director of United Way of St. Charles. "By offering the initial 12-week intensive program and continuing to support them for an additional year, we are creating long-term accountability, not just a quick fix."
Get Fit United participants attend weekly classes focusing on nutrition, stress-management, meal planning, label reading and exercise. The sessions, led by Ochsner Corporate Wellness, last about an hour and include a question and answer session with a registered dietitian.
"Ochsner is proud to work with United Way in leading Get Fit United, a health and lifestyle weight management program. Conducting Get Fit United has truly been a rewarding and invaluable experience. This program and its ongoing success would not have been possible without the support and generosity of United Way," stated Danielle Fournet, Registered Dietitian, Ochsner Corporate Wellness. "Get Fit United has enriched the lives and health of so many individuals within St. Charles Parish and continues to do so through ongoing program maintenance."
In addition to weekly nutrition classes, Anytime Fitness provides participants with a free 12-week gym membership as well as virtual personal training. Fitness boot camps are also conducted at both the East and West Bank Bridge Parks two times per week.
"We have loved being a part of the Get Fit United program. It brings us so much joy watching the participants work hard and reach goals that they did not think they could before," stated Jennifer Perkins, owner of Anytime Fitness. "This is a great program for our community, and we are proud to be a part of it."
The second class of Get Fit United began their journey in the fall of 2016, losing a total of 450 pounds and 130 inches in just 12 weeks. These individuals will continue to meet monthly for one year, conducting periodic weigh-ins and a final health screening.
"Thanks to the overwhelming success of Get Fit United, as well as the generosity of donors who make these types of programs possible, we are excited to offer another session of Get Fit in the Spring of 2017," stated Executive Director Dias. "We encourage anyone who is 18 years of age or older, lives or works in St. Charles Parish, and has a strong commitment to changing the future of their health to consider applying."
"I could not have hand-picked a better group to take this journey with. It was hard work and lots of discipline but well worth the results," said Jamie Pollock, current Get Fit United participant. "I am so happy and thankful to have been a part of this program and encourage anyone who is truly serious about changing their health to apply."

Q: Google Autocomplete cannot resolve getActivity() I'm new in android programming and I have this snippet from somewhere in the internet and it says "cannot resolve getActivity()" I then tried to use getApplicationContext() but the Autocomplete did not function.

Review: George Ezra at Leeds Arena
There's no stopping George Ezra as the nicest man in pop plays his second Arena date in Leeds in front of thousands of Pretty Shining People.
Review and Photos by John Hayhurst
It is hard to believe that only 5 years ago on a wet and windy February night in York I witnessed a young guy with a very deep voice and two guitars, play to a small venue crowd, his performance that night was nothing less than stellar and although he hadn't even released his 2ndEP at the time, you could tell there was so much more to come from George Ezra. The venue tonight is the biggest indoor venue in the area, he sold it out very quickly, and could have added a second night due to the popular demand of this still young and apparently nicest man in pop right now.
Ezra has 2 Number One albums and a selection of earworms that have been infesting in ears all over the UK for the last 2 years, 'Shotgun' is probably the biggest song of last year, and he even managed to score a Brit in the recent awards in 2019. This rapid rise to fame has left those other male singer-songwriters like Hozier, James Bay and Tom Odell firmly in the shadows and there is probably only Ed Sheeran in his sights, but to quote a football premiership analogy, Ezra has an album in hand on Sheeran and who knows what the next one will contain. The latest record 'Staying at Tamara's' went straight in to the top spot after shifting 63,000 units in its first week and became the fasting selling album in 2018, it is still in the Top 5 fifty weeks later.
Tonight, as the intro winds down, the whole band file out and already the stage is filled with some quality musicianship and friends that George has picked up along the way. Some additional brass players are at the back and traditional guitar, bass, drums and keys all in place. He does a Michael McIntyre type skip on to the stage from the left and raises both arms in the air with a triumphant salute to the faithful crowd that have sold out this arena. Picks up a guitar and launches into 'Don't Matter Now' which is an immediate party boost effect to the Friday night. He has a circular carpet/rug at his feet, and whilst in the main he doesn't move too much further away from the mic, it doesn't really matter as most of the crowd are in their seats singing and waving their arms around.
'Get Away' is the next carnival sing-a-long, the latest album is chock full of smiley tunes and these Yorkshire girls and boys know them all so well. So, after an up-tempo start we need to slow it down a little for 'Barcelona', the sound quality in this venue means you can hear every guitar strum and vocal perfectly. Some deft lighting effects as the backdrop of 3 windows to the world turn into stained glass and then into beach landscapes, it's a beautiful diversion and later complimented by some clever Chinese lanterns that rise and fall in front of the stage.
Throughout the set each track is introduced by George with his friendly, warm charm, the likeability factor is set at maximum, he's everyone's friend and we all love him. There is this permanent smile on his face (wouldn't you with 2 number one albums under your belt, a Brit Award and selling out Arenas at 25 years old) and he tells stories of staying in hostels and Airbnb houses as he trekked around Europe writing this last record. This lone approach seems to work for him and the product of that process is a collection of happy sing song tunes with a big helping of sugar and spice, no salt or vinegar here. You are not going to get introspective morose political commentary, in fact it is more "I don't think about that stuff, let's try to stick together and enjoy life", 'Pretty Shining People' is a classic example.
'Listen to the Man' is equally infectious and surprisingly he is still playing the much darker 'Did You Hear the Rain' one that sent a few chills down the spine back in February 2013. George explains that the next song he had the melody worked out in the middle of the night after feeling ill on the tour bus, he quickly recorded it by voice into his phone, and then found the recording several months later. It became 'Paradise' which is the fastest song in his arsenal and probably about as rock as George Ezra can ever be.
After the rock we get a few of the slower tracks like 'Song 6' and 'Hold My Girl' whilst it's a nice change, I think the punchier 'Blame it on Me' should have come a little earlier in the setlist to split it up a bit. Ending the main set with his previously usual encore of 'Budapest' was a brave move, or maybe not as everyone knew he still hadn't played that 'Shotgun' song yet. Ezra is still telling the story of how he never actually reached Budapest the first time on his travels. Interaction with the audience hit the top notch with those "You, You, I'd leave it all" call backs, although some people near me were singing "I dooby do", but we are in Leeds so be grateful that it wasn't "Yorkshire Yorkshire".
The encore actually starts with an old one and probably the first track to get him really noticed 'Cassie O' and I still laugh at the lyrics "Well, I got my tracing paper, so that I could trace my clock, And the bastard face kept changing, and the hands, they wouldn't stop".
The final track had to be 'Shotgun' and it was like everyone was waiting for it, chairs left upright everyone on their feet and dancing, George Ezra was made for the Arenas –who knew?.
He is definitely the nicest man in music right now, that's the very clean image he portrays, the friendly personality, and his glossy happy music. I think it will be important for the longer-term career that he puts a bit of darker soul rather than more bland sugar into the mix, otherwise he risks becoming the next James Blunt – and nobody wants that! For now, his star is rising faster than any of his peers and I would expect that to continue for at least the next couple of years. Festival headlining slots are beckoning this summer and the next venue in Leeds outside of the festival circuit would be Roundhay Park, where Sheeran is playing 2 shows later this year –watch out Ed he's on your tail, and he's got a Shotgun!

Extra Space Storage Recognized Among America's Best Customer Service Companies in 2022
Extra Space Storage is honored to be recognized once again among Newsweek's 2022 list for America's Best Customer Service. This year the list includes 581 retailers across 16 industries, including self storage.
"We support well over a million customers nationwide with their storage needs," said Brett Boot, Director of Customer Experience. "When customers come to us for storage, we don't always know what they are experiencing in their lives. Some simply need more space, but others may be experiencing the loss of a loved one or facing the challenge of a major move. Whatever the reason, because of the amazing people at Extra Space, we know they will always be taken care of."
From the National Solutions Center in Salt Lake City, UT, to our store managers located across the country in 41 states, Extra Space Storage team members are invested in building strong connections with customers and providing a consistent experience at every interaction.
"So many of our people were doing so much good, and we wanted to recognize that," Boot continued. "That's why we created the monthly Customer Care Award."
Launched in September 2020, the Customer Care Award is a way to recognize employees across the country at stores and the National Solutions Center who go above and beyond in caring for customers. Each month, two outstanding team members are recognized with a company-wide announcement and sent a personalized care package from the Extra Space Storage Customer Experience team.
The award highlights simple but impactful acts of kindness like Mika Carter, an Inbound Sales Representative, who stayed on the phone with a customer past regular operating hours to clear up uncertainty over the location's address. And Wynona Adams, a Store Manager who brings the personal touch all the way out to the island of Kauai, HI. In the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Adams made a lasting impression on a customer by contacting them within minutes of their online reservation to ensure they had all the information they needed for a smooth move-in.
Extra Space Storage believes its people and culture are the key differentiators that set them apart, and these stories are evidence of that. "The reason we're recognized across the country for our customer service is simple—it's because of our people," Boot concluded.
To view the complete 2022 list of America's Best Customer Service companies, visit Newsweek.com.
Learn more about the executive leaders and Board of Directors growing Extra Space Storage into a self storage leader. Or find out how to join the team today!

Lung cancer mortality increased significantly in recent 40 years, Henan residents, Henan tobacco production and high rates of smoking and smoking age younger is the main reason. A large number of patients with advanced lung cancer went to hospital, and restricted the development of hospital improvement and hinder the hospital technological innovation.
Conclusion: Lung cancer is the main leading causes for the death toll. From 1974 to 2013, the epidemic trend was rising for lung cancer. It needs the restriction for the tobacco planting and selling, and set up corresponding laws and regulations system, and carry out to individuals at risk for lung cancer screening and early detection, then, been treated well. These methods could improve the survival rate and reduce mortality.
According to analysis data released by the international anti-cancer association, apart from few developed countries such as the United States, Canada, the UK, the lung cancer incidence and mortality declined, due to tobacco restriction, early detection and treatment for smokers in the last 30 to 40 years. Almost other countries, lung cancer morbidity and mortality remained high, and showed a significant increase trend [1-3]. In our country, there is one people died of cancer for every 3~5 deaths. There is one patient died of lung cancer  for every 3~4 in cancer patients. Lung cancer has become the "first killer" - our country's malignant tumor. In 2013, it had reported the tumor registration annual report data in Henan province , lung cancer has become the first cause of death in Henan residents, accounting 23.24% in total cancer death population. This thesis mainly explores the epidemic characteristics and control strategy.
The files for 1970s was from the death cause review from 1974 to 1976; The files for 1980s was from 1/10 population, namely the residents in 15 cities and counties in the cause of death registration report; The files for 1990s was from 1/10 sampling death population and 15 cities and counties people death registration report from 1990~1992. For this thesis, the data is from tumor registration report of Henan residents.
Had add the data of Retrospective review data in 1974 ~ 1976, retrospective review data of 1/10 sampling population in 1990 ~ 1992, and 15 cities' residents death registration in 1983~2013, then applied related statistical indicators and statistical calculation respectively. The outcomes of statistical indicators included: average mortality rate, age and gender and mortality, death constitution rate and age-adjusted mortality rates, etc. This paper had setted the population census demographic of 1964 as standards, and calculated China population age adjusted mortality. For the dynamic changes of the lung cancer mortality, had applied the relevant models for trend test.
The change of the total death lung cancer death of cancer.
Since middle of 1970s, the male lung cancer rose by 335.74%, female lung cancer rose by 278.97%. Lung cancer deaths accounted for 23.24% of its overall cancer death, has become the first death cause among all cancer for Henan residents (Table 1) (Figure 1). Lung cancer deaths in the 1970s, Henan resident lung cancer accounts for 5.09% of the total population of cancer death, and it has been to more than 20% nowadays (Figure 2).
Henan province cigarette output in 1970s was 13.3 times that of the nation establishment, 24 times than that of the early 1980s, and 18 times than that of 1990s. In new century, It still remained above 10 times (Figure 3). According to national statistics of 1992, the national cigarette output was 32.79 million cases, accounting for 98.2% of the cigarette production.For the tobacco, 95% of it was consumed by smokers.
In the 1990s, we had investigated some village in Henan province, found that the people aging 20 years old and above the smoking rate were 44.11%, and the men were still more than 60%. What worth to point out was that people aging 20 years or less was more obvious in teenage, 8.95% for people aging 20 to 39 years old, and 40 to 49 years old group was 5.70%, 2.33% for people aging 50 to 59 years old and 4.77% for people aging 60 to 74 years old. Especially in the young men, were 12.84%, 8.11%, 3.21% and 12.84% respectively. It was obvious that rural young men started smoking earlier than its predecessors. The population sampling survey of smoking status in a city of Henan showed that total smoking rate was 37.15%, the crowd now smoking rates of 34.92%. And male smoking rates up to 70.18% and 4.24% for female, average age of starting smoking was 21.82 years old.
It had been correlative analysed for annual production of tobacco consumption and lung cancer mortality trend (Figure 4).
This paper had investigated the 10 years of hospitalized patients with lung cancer from 1987 to 1996, lung cancer patients accounted for 6.84% of all hospitalized patients during this period, in the early 5 years, the rate was 6.46%, next 5 years, the rate was 7.33%. The rate in next 5 years had increased almost 1% than the previous five years. The male patients were 2157 cases, accounting for 83.25% of all lung cancer patients during this period. This paper had made the survey for the same hospital, from 2004 to 2013, the first five years were 5927 cases of lung cancer patients, and 11825 case of patients with lung cancer in the next five years, and increased the double amount accounting to 99.51% than the first 5 years.
From the patient's age distribution, 71% of patients were the ages of 50 to 69 years old, 21.92% in 30 to 49 years old age. According to the pathological data statistics in 1991 to 1993, about half of the patients of squamous carcinoma, 29.78% for adenocarcinoma, 18.02% for anaplastic carcinoma, and 2.57% for other cancer. Treatment status quo analysis showed that 5927 cases of patients were with lung cancer in 2004 to 2008, 28.19% were treated with surgery, 22.24% for radiotherapy and chemotherapy, 42.67% for other treatment, and 6.90% for other treatment. 11825 cases of patients were with lung cancer in 2009 to 2013, the proportion of the above treatment were 23.29%, 16.65%, 48.42% and 23.29% respectively.
Henan Province Cigarette Production Annually.
Henan Tobacco Consumption and the Relationship between Lung Cancer Mortality.
This assay had analysed cancer surveillance in henan province, lung cancer was the momentum of most malignant tumors and rose fastest in last 40 years. It has various reasons, such as population aging, environmental pollution, bad behavior and lifestyle and so on, being the main factor to the rising lung cancer [6-8]. Since the 1980s, it had dramatic rose for tobacco production in Henan province, the tobacco production was 13 times than that in the early establishment of our nation, 24 times that that in the 1980s, and 18 times than that in 1990s. In the century, it still remained above 10 times. Secondly, smoking rates were still high, either rural area or urban area, male adults smoking rates remained above 60%. And the men started smoking tend to be a younger age. Therefore, it is very necessary to control of tobacco production and strengthen the propaganda education quitting smoking . National Cancer Registry had released the "2012 China tumor registration report" , the new cancer cases rose about 3.12 million cases annually, accounting 8,550 people in one day on average, and six people were diagnosed with malignant tumor every minute nationally. There was 22% of our country residents suffered from cancer. This was mainly due to population aging in our country, and became the highest mortality rate of lung cancer both for men and women. In fact, bad living habits, not only smoking, but also bad life style, both were the main reason leading to lung cancer. According to the study investigation, there were 70% of male patients with lung cancer deaths associated with smoking, only 18% of women patients with lung cancer caused by smoking or passive smoking for long time; In non-smoking female lung cancer risk factors, more than 60% of women had been longterm exposed to the kitchen lampblack. Cooking smoke often have irritated eyes and throat; 32% of the women liked cooking in high oil temperature while frying food, with kitchen door closed at the same time, it made the small kitchen lampblack polluted . And 25% of women, kitchen attached to the bedroom, rarely open the window for cooking in winter, high temperature cooking air lasted for long time; even when sleeping in the suction, the toxic smoke seriously damaged the respiratory tissues. At present, the tobacco production in many countries were reduced year by year, while in our country, it were still rising for tobacco growing area, cigarette production, tobacco taxes or consumption quantity, smokers, smoking, the death toll. Henan resident's tobacco production, high rates of smoking, and adolescent smoking increased year by year, lung cancer aging younger become more and more obvious. Therefore, it was particularly important to accelerate the legislative process in indoor smoking forbidden in public places, building indoor smoke-free environment because lung cancer primary prevention was not a good job, leading to clinical pressure. In a concerned tumor hospital, in the last 30 years, the first ranking for the amount of cancer patients, had shifted from esophageal cancer to lung cancer, most were advanced cancer patients. Surgery, radiation therapy reduced year by year, chemotherapy rate rose the same time. On one hand, the tumor molecular targeted drugs clinical applications. On another side, it reflected the passive situation of tumor prevention and treatment. For example, in Japan, early stage lung cancer accounted 47.7% of the total number of patients with lung cancer in 1994, 51.8% in 1994, 59.4% in 1999, and more than 85% in 2009. From organization credit classification, adenocarcinomas 5-year survival rate was 47.2%, squamous carcinoma survival rate was 50.8% . The increase of 5-year lung cancer survival rate in Japan was contributed by the improvement of early lung cancer diagnosis [13,14]. Situation become revised in our province, more than 80% of patients with lung cancer diagnosis has been in the middle-late and lost the opportunity for radical surgical treatment, and the 5-year survival rate less than 15%. To break the clinical dilemma, first of all, it needs to control tobacco production scale, and strength education, especially for teenagers, it is the main measures to reduce the lung cancer. Secondly, in people at high risk for lung cancer screening, early detection, early diagnosis, early treatment can improve the patient's survival rate, reduce mortality. The reality had told us that the prevention of lung cancer must change concept, should pay attention to the early discovery, early diagnosis and early treatment. In the diagnosis of lung cancer, early detection is key important for diagnosis. One is the physical, namely census on a regular basis. For the majority of peripheral lung cancer have no symptoms, needs to find normal physical examination every year. We know that lung cancer is doubling time increased, don't say a few weeks, grant changes occurred within a few months. Do a medical check-up every year, it is needed. For heavy smokers, about 55 years or older, with smoking more than 30 years, it proposes check-up 1 time in six months, after 2 times normal results, can do the checkup very year. Thirdly, it needs to pay attention to some of the early symptoms. The habit of change, such as cough or irritating cough, with blood in phlegm, some people do not have any reason even start of tobacco; For central type lung cancer, the changing nature of the emphasis on cough, attaches great importance to the blood, phlegm, can be detected early. For lung cancer, surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy is still a classic "three big weapon", but it still cannot be ignored for the biological treatment, psychological therapy and lifestyle intervention methods. And according to the clinical characteristics of treats, and the implementation of comprehensive, it could get the best curative effect .

The first thing Keith Brymer Jones ever made was a pottery owl, when he was 11 years old. The process of pottery gave him a sort of sense of escapism. It was then that he knew he wanted to be a potter and, after a brief stint as the lead singer of a punk band (!), that's just what he did, becoming an apprentice for Harefield Pottery in London at 18. This is where he really learnt how to use traditional hard graft to make modern ceramics.
Working life now revolves around his studio in Whitstable, Kent, which is housed inside an old bakery. Here he hand designs every Keith Brymer Jones item (oh yes, it's all very hands on!) Once he is happy with each shape he has thrown on the wheel, he then travels to China with the finished prototype, where he works with a great team on the factory floor to ensure the products they mass produce maintain the same standards as the ones in his studio back home.
All of the pieces in the Keith Brymer Jones ranges are then finished by hand.
His design philosophy is a simple one; he likes to create stylish yet simple products that are pleasing to the eye and, above all, are practical in the modern home and make people happy!


Science routinely finds a link between chronic disorders and inflammation. There are so many pro-inflammatory factors in ur lifestyles from foods such as omega 6 fatty acids to sugars to lifestyle activities. Al these add up to a very inflammatory society!! by taking a simple natural anti-inflammatory you can hedge your bet against a multitude of related complications.

Reliance Jio's Mobility Spend May Shift To Broadband By March 2019
The telecom operator is on track to achieve the 99 per cent of population coverage target within FY19.
In the second quarter of this fiscal year, Reliance Jio had a significant capex of around Rs 160 billion, although it was 6 per cent down from the previous quarter. Analysts expect the high capex to continue for another two quarters or so, post which the company would shift its focus to the broadband business.
The telecom operator is on track to achieve the 99 per cent of population coverage target within FY19. Jio had attributed the higher capex in the first half of FY19 to expanding mobility networks, which is in the last phase and will subside in the next one-two quarters. Incumbent telcos may still be at risk of exceeding capex targets, stated reports. Capex in the September quarter stood at Rs 160 billion or 173 per cent of revenue (Rs 92.4 billion) for the quarter.
On Wednesday, RIL announced it would pick up a 51.3 per cent stake in Hathway Cable and Datacom for Rs 29.40 billion, a 66 per cent stake for Rs 22.90 billion in Den Network. Both of these stakes will help the company speed up deployment of its fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) business.
Motilal Oswal's Swarnendu Bhushan noted in a report that Jio's capex intensity is almost three-four times that of incumbent's capex guidance at Bharti Airtel's Rs 220 billion and Vodafone Idea's Rs 150 billion. "A bulk of the capex in H1 FY19 to the tune of Rs 330 billion is toward mobility due to high orders of electronics. Mobility-related capex is coming to an end by March 2019, post that investment focus will shift to FTTH," wrote Bhushan.
Experts have indicated that high capex spends by Jio would also keep incumbents under pressure to elevate their capex spend for a few more years.
Reliance Jio Infocomm beat most analyst estimates by reporting a net profit of Rs 6.8 billion, up 11.3 per cent from Rs 6.1 billion for the quarter ended September 30. The average revenue per user, however, fell 2 per cent to Rs 131.7 (from Rs 134.5 last quarter) on the back on JioPhone expansion. Jio also beat all subscriber addition estimates to add a record 37 million users during the quarter to take the number to 252.3 million.
Jio reported a capex spend of Rs 130 billion and Rs 170 billion over March and June quarters, respectively. The spend came on account of wireless for loading electronics, fiber and capitalisation of costs while forex loss in capex was negligible, noted ICICI Securities.
"Further, the company mentioned its content- and apps-related cost (which is capitalised as of now) will be recognised in RIL and (company) expects network cost to rise with expansion of population coverage to 99 per cent (which is 96-97 per cent now)," wrote Sanjesh Jain, ICICI Securities.
Employee cost and selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses rose 10.4 per cent and 17.5 per cent sequentially. Parent Reliance Industries also noted about Rs 50 billion investments in content and apps. Costs of devices such as Jio-fi, Jiophone and set-top boxes are expensed under the Reliance Retail segment on an operating lease model. Jio reported a rise in network operating expenses by 21.5 per cent to Rs 26 billion as well as a 14 per cent increase in licence fees to Rs 9.8 billion during the quarter.
As of Q2, Jio's capex stands at Rs 2,630 billion, however, it has refrained from providing capex guidance. Some analysts have noted the capex spend for the FTTH business will be smaller and slower compared with the spend on mobility business following the onboarding on DEN and Hathway. – Business Standard

Handball team celebrates third World Championship
Norwegian handball fans, and not least the players making up Norway's national women's handball team, were still celebrating their latest gold medals on Monday after winning their third World Championship in Denmark Sunday evening. Their Icelandic coach was also getting rave reviews in local media.
The so-called "handball girls" beat the Netherlands by a score of 31-23, a decisive victory indeed after narrowly defeating the powerhouse Romanian team Friday night by a score of 35-33 in overtime, since scheduled play ended in a tie of 27-27.
The Romanian victory sent Norway into the finals and the Norwegian women by all accounts put on a powerful performance. Goalkeeper Kari Aalvik Grimsbø was getting much of the glory, after fending off more than 50 percent of attempted goals by her team's rival Dutch players.
The latest World Championship also resulted in the Norwegian team's 11th gold medals over the past 29 years, given their Olympic, World- and European Championship successes. Coaches Marit Breivik and, most recently, Thorir Hergeirsson have nurtured and built teams that are simply the best in the world.
Hergeirsson remained characteristically in the background and let the women celebrate but he was credited by both them and commentators as being inclusive, firm and supportive. Now they'll all take off for Christmas, with new medals adding to the holiday glitter.
