Had the new phone a few days now and have to say I'm loving it. The Swift 2 x has replaced my Nokia Lumia 735 Windows Phone(WP.) WP is not quite dead yet but Microsoft are out of the mobile phone arena and are actively persuading people to migrate to Android. I was going to wait to see what was on offer in the Microsoft Mobile "PC" market, which uses "eSIMS" and always connected but my main need was a mobile phone that integrated well with my Windows 10 desktop and Laptop. The 735 used to do this very well while running the Insider builds but the Facebook app now requires 2GB RAM, it does run with 1GB RAM but takes forever to load up, similar situation with FB Messenger. I had to accept that the 735 was a bit dated so I decided not to prolong the agony, no more Insider builds to play with and only a few security updates. A lot of the new features in Win 10 just didn't work with the 735.
I've been looking for Android phones with at least 3GB RAM that have USB type C and it's a minefield! I've dismissed iPhone due to the lack of customization and the enforced "Apple way of doing things".
Microsoft Launcher got my attention, it means that I can have an Android phone and make it a "Microsoft phone"! This just means disabling all the built-in Google stuff and use the Microsoft equivalent.
The Swift 2 x is a pretty good spec with 3GB RAM and USB C charging, it compares well with more expensive phones. It's currently running 7.1.2. and will hopefully get Android 8(Oreo) in the next few days/weeks. I could download Oreo but I'm happy to wait a while.
The Swift 2 x is a little longer than the 735 and a tad wider but is still very comfy to hold and the screen is nice and clear; don't have to use my Specs as much to see the words!
I've disabled most of the Google stuff and installed Microsoft Launcher so I now have Outlook for email and calendar, Edge as the browser, Onedrive and of course Cortana. This means I have a phone that is very similar to a Windows Phone but has the added advantage of being able to run a lot more Apps that aren't available in Windows Phone. The integration with Cortana on the Swift and my Desktop seems to do all that I need.
If you're a WP user, I'd definitely recommend the Swift 2 x, along with Microsoft Launcher. However, I think that Outlook works better on a WP (and iPad). The 'Droid version doesn't have the "Link accounts" option and it seems to randomly put messages into an "Archive" folder, which isn't a huge problem but I never archive; I either delete or save them in my "Local Folders" Inbox.
Microsoft Launcher is a "Work in Progress" and I basically like what it does; for people that like WP, this is as close as you're going to get.
The Swift 2 x has a lot of features and compares well with other more expensive phones.

Standard Chartered Bank moves NCLT in Essar Steel takeover case
Standard Chartered Bank has filed an interlocutory application in the bankruptcy court against a panel of lenders selecting ArcelorMittal to take over debt-ridden Essar Steel, saying the decision was "illegal" and was taken without considering its claims.
Standard Chartered Bank (SCB), which has more than 7.5 per cent weight in the Committee of Essar Steel Creditors, in the petition before the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) claimed that ArcelorMittal's revised bid of Rs 420 billion was never considered by the CoC.
SCB had lent Essar Steel, which the lenders are auctioning to recover Rs 493.95 billion of unpaid financial dues, a principal amount of Rs 26.46 billion but the Committee of Creditors admitted only Rs 607 million for repayment out of the auction proceeds.
"The manner of conducting the 21st CoC meeting dated October 22, 2018 and e-voting on the voting resolutions approved on October 24, 2018 and October 25, 2018 is non transparent, flawed and illegal and was carried out with an intention to deny legal right to (SCB) to take an informed decision on the revised resolution plan (of ArcelorMittal)," the petition said. It wanted quashing of the October 24-25 voting by more than 92 per cent of creditors of Essar Steel in favour of handing over the company to ArcelorMittal.
It also wanted rejection of the resolution plan of ArcelorMittal and if that was done, the Rs 420 billion proceeds be distributed among all financial creditors on pro-rata basis of the amount of claim.
Earlier this month, operational creditors, including GAIL India and Gujarat Energy Transmission Corp, filed separate applications seeking rejection of ArcelorMittal's bid saying the Rs 420-billion project leaves out their claims.
Last month, a committee of Essar Steel lenders picked ArcelorMittal's Rs 420-billion proposal to take over the debt-laden company by paying Rs 419.87 billion out of total dues of Rs 493.95 billion of financial creditors. Operational creditors, under the plan, are to get just Rs 2.14 billion against the outstanding of Rs 49.76 billion.
Aggrieved, over two dozen operational creditors filed separate interlocutory applications in the Ahmedabad-bench of NCLT. They wanted Arcelor to pay in full all dues of operational creditors, or a Rs 543.89 billion proposal of the owners of Essar Steel to be considered.
While ArcelorMittal spokesperson could not be reached for comments, the spokesperson had at the time of operational creditors like GAIL approaching the NCLT stated: "We have followed the IBC process in good faith since first submitting our EOI in 2017. The committee of creditors has clearly decided ArcelorMittal's plan is in the best interests of Essar Steel and we are confident that the process will be implemented correctly and according to the law." SCB said the details of the Rs 420 billion revised resolution plan of ArcelorMittal, including the distribution among the creditors, was not circulated along with the agenda of the meeting. "It is an admitted position that the Revised Resolution Plan was never discussed in the CoC meetings, since there have been no CoC meetings on or after October 23, 2018 (when the revised resolution plan was received)," it said.
It wanted the Rs 420-billion ArcelorMittal's revised resolution plan rejected as it was "not complete in all aspects" and it was "not in accordance with the law and hence is un-implementable."
It alleged discriminatory practice by the Committee of Creditors, which has illegally formed a core-committee of CoC (beyond the scope of Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code) to negotiate with ArcelorMittal India.
The core-committee included State Bank of India, ICICI Bank, IDBI bank, and Edelweiss ARC, which illegally negotiated with ArcelorMittal and retained the right to distribute the amount of Rs 420 billion of upfront payment amongst the financial creditors as per the choosing of the core-committee members.
Accordingly, the core-committee members recommended that SCB receive Rs 607 million against its admitted claim of Rs 34.87 billion (including interest) -- only 1.47 per cent of the admitted claim of SCB. While the SBI and other lenders got 100 per cent of the principal amount due and 40 per cent of the interest amount.
"The basis of the distribution of amounts to secured financial creditors is illegal and biased," the petition said. "The consortium of lenders have acted with continued bias with the applicant (SCB) and such bias is apparent from the decision-making process and the decision on the manner of distribution. Accordingly, both the decision-making process and the decision on the manner of distribution stands vitiated." SCB has also challenged the Resolution Plan of Arcelor as being incomplete and in violation of the IBC.
It has also sought to bring to the attention of the NCLT the arbitrary practice of the CoC lead by SBI to retain legal firms to send notices to SCB without an authorisation from CoC itself.
SCB had loaned Essar Steel $500 million in August 2010. This was refinanced to the tune of $413 million in January 2014 by granting extended repayment schedule. Also, Essar Steel pledged 71.8 million shares with SCB.

Q: Is it okay to return vector in main I am wondering is it okay to return a vector in main()? For example,
aSpecialVectorType main()
{
    aSpecialVectorType xxx(vector::zero);
    // do something here;
    return xxx;
}

Do I need to forward declare "class aSpecialVectorType;" before main()?
And btw, is it legal to use another name other than "main" in c++?
Thanks
Edit1:
If not, what is the best way that it can output a vector?
My friend ask me to give him a blackbox that can serve as "vector in and vector out", he will use his matlab code to call my code. That's why I am asking.
I know how to vector in, but not sure if there is an easy way to output a vector.
Thanks
Edit2:
I am surprised why C++ has such an standard, any explanation? :)

A: In C++, main needs to return an int:

C++ standard, 3.6.1.2:
An implementation shall not predefine the main function. This function shall not be overloaded. It shall have a return type of type int, but otherwise its type is implementation-defined.

.

If not, what is the best way that it can output a vector?

To output a vector, you need to copy it to a file or an output stream:
ostream_iterator<int> out_it(cout, ", ");
copy(myvector.begin(), myvector.end(), out_it);

The code fragment above writes the content of vector<int> to the standard output.

A: No. main must be declared in one of these two ways:
int main()

or
int main(int argc, char*[] argv)

Anything outside of this is not standard.

A: No.
According to the standard main() must return an int and only that.

A: No.
main must return int.
Other functions are free to have other names and return anything they want.

A: To expand on dashblinkenlight's answer, here is how two programs can communicate.  Not by one capturing the return value of the other, but by a process called "piping", directing the standard output of one program to the standard input of another.  Here, I'll print out a list of strings in one program, then the other program will expect a list of strings on its standard input, then I'll show you how to use the two together:
// Output program
#include <vector>
#include <string>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    using namespace std;

    vector<string> v;
    v.push_back("one");
    v.push_back("two");
    v.push_back("three");

    for (int i=0; i<v.size(); ++i)
        cout << v[i] << '\n';
}

// input program
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <string>

int main()
{
    using namespace std;

    vector<string> v;
    for (string tmp; cin >> tmp; )
        v.push_back(tmp);

    // print the strings in reverse order
    for (int i=v.size()-1; i>=0; --i)
        cout << v[i] << '\n';
}

If you run the first program by itself, it will just print the 3 strings out.  If you run the second program by itself, it will prompt the user for strings until he uses the termination command.  But on all of the most widely used operating systems, you can chain the two together.  Then the output of the first will become the input of the second.  On Unix-like systems, you do it like this:
./output_program | ./input_program

On Windows, I think it's the same, or very similar.  Not sure though.

A: The answer to your first question is no.
The answer to your second question is yes, but you need to specify the name of your entry point to your executable (via linker settings ... may not be available on all linker tools).
Below statement is wrong
See Ben's comment below. Useful info that.
Be aware that though the name of the entry-point can change, it MUST conform to the standard parameter and return types.

Home / Regional / VENEZUELA – Violence mars 'mother of all marches'
VENEZUELA – Violence mars 'mother of all marches' - by Barbados Today April 19, 2017
CARACAS – Venezuelan security forces fired tear gas as demonstrators staged what they billed as the "mother of all marches" against President Nicolas Maduro on Wednesday, and a student caught up in a clash died after being shot in the head.
Opposition supporters protested in Caracas and other cities, denouncing Maduro for eroding democracy and plunging the economy into chaos. Crowds swelled to hundreds of thousands, including Maduro supporters who held a counter-demonstration in the capital at the urging of the president.
The dueling marches drew parallels to the clashes between pro and anti-government protesters in 2002 that triggered a brief coup against late president Hugo Chavez.
A demonstrator throws back a tear gas grenade while clashing with riot police during the so-called 'mother of all marches' against Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro in Caracas, Venezuela.
Carlos Moreno, 18, a student, was on his way to play soccer in Caracas and did not plan to take part in the demonstration when government supporters approached an opposition gathering and fired shots, according to witnesses and a family member. Moreno was shot in the head, they said.
Waving the country's red yellow and blue flags and shouting "No more dictatorship" and "Maduro out," demonstrators clogged a stretch of the main highway in Caracas. Troops fired tear gas in Caracas neighborhoods and in the border city of San Cristobal.
"We have to protest because this country is dying of hunger said Alexis Mendoza, a 53-year-old administrator marching in the Caracas neighborhood of El Paraiso. "There are a lot of people in the opposition and they are full of courage."
The protest followed a fortnight of violent protests, in which five people have been killed, triggered by a Supreme Court decision in March to assume the powers of the opposition-led Congress – which it quickly reversed under international pressure.
The court's move nonetheless fueled long-simmering anger over the ruling Socialist Party's handling of the economy. The oil-exporting country suffers from Soviet-style shortages of food and consumer goods and triple-digit inflation.
The opposition is demanding a timeline for delayed elections, a halt a security crackdown on protests, and respect for the autonomy of the opposition-led legislature.
Maduro says recent protests have been little more than opposition efforts to foment violence and topple his government.
Moreno, the student hit by gunfire, died in a clinic after undergoing surgery, according to three security officials who asked not to be identified.
"There was an exchange of words, the situation got complicated and, well, they shot the guy," said Arhiam Cano, a graphic designer who witnessed the event, in a telephone interview. "When they took the young man to (a nearby clinic), the government supporters left."
An employee of the clinic said the man was undergoing surgery, without giving details. Venezuela's Information Ministry did not respond to an email seeking details.
The marchers gathered at more than two dozen points around Caracas and hoped to converge on the office of the state ombudsman, a guarantor of human rights.
Previous efforts to march there have been blocked by the National Guard. In many cases protests have ended with youths throwing rocks squaring off against security forces spraying tear gas in melees that have dragged on well into the evening.
Maduro has charged that the opposition is trying to relive the 2002 coup against Chavez, his predecessor and mentor. Analysts say there is less likelihood of a putsch against Maduro because Chavez launched a broad purge of the armed forces following his brief ouster.
Socialist Party officials dismiss the opposition marches as efforts to destabilize the government, pointing to barricades of burning trash mounted by protesters and vandalism of public property.
"They've got the right to march but marching isn't burning stuff, throwing rocks," said Jahil Marcano, a 48-year-old construction worker who had joined the pro-government rally. "They view us Chavistas with hatred."
Venezuela benefited for years from oil-fueled consumption and many poor citizens rose into the middle class. But the 2014 collapse in oil prices left the government unable to maintain a complex system of subsidies and price controls. Snaking grocery lines are now a common sight and people routinely say they skip meals and cannot find basic medication.
Further spurring outrage was a decision by the national comptroller's office earlier this month to disqualify opposition leader and two-time presidential candidate Henrique Capriles from holding office for 15 years, dashing his hopes for the presidency.
The elections council, which is sympathetic to the government, has delayed votes for state governors that were supposed to take place last year. The opposition charges that this is because the Socialist Party would be likely to fare poorly in such a vote.
Eleven Latin American countries issued a joint statement this week calling on authorities to set a time frame for elections to "allow for a quick solution to the crisis that Venezuela is living through."
Demonstrators also gathered on Wednesday in the eastern city of Puerto Ordaz, home to Venezuela's struggling state-run mining companies, and in the border city of San Cristobal and the oil city of Maracaibo.
"I've just graduated … and what I've got in the bank isn't enough for a bottle of cooking oil," said Gregorio Mendoza, a 23 -year-old engineer in Puerto Ordaz. "We're poorer every day."

The Industrial Wireless Systems (IWS) Testbed integrates existing and emerging wireless technologies with live physical systems found in factories of all types. The testbed seeks to merge the physical systems and the radio frequency (RF) environment creating a framework for conducting measurements and test methods that advance the effectiveness, reliability, and security of industrial wireless deployments in factories. The IWS testbed is indeed a cyberphysical systems testbed as it connects the computing world with the physical world.
The focus of the IWS is to examine the applicability and impacts of existing wireless technologies on factory systems. As shown in Figure 1, the physical system monitored by sensors connected to wireless communication nodes. Those sensor signals are routed through an RF Environment Model using an RF channel emulator (RFCE). The IWS testbed RFCE current supports up to eight (8) physical wireless nodes. The RFCE creates the electromagnetic properties of the factory. A controller may then act on sensor signals and send control commands to actuators within the factory. Through this plant-RF-controller interaction, we study the impacts of wireless on the factory operation.
Construction of the IWS testbed is currently underway. Shown in Figure 2 are two researchers conducting an experiment on the impacts of wireless technologies on a chemical reactor. Other systems envisioned include a linear axis force feedback system, a multi-axis gantry system, and a precisely timed sensor actuation system. The IWS testbed is useful in measuring how information loss and delay affect the performance and control physical characteristics such as position, speed, force, temperature, pressure, and safety.

spirit or the movement of blowing air/wind. All/every spirit is NOT eternal life spirit.
God is Spirit. His essence and realm of power, authority, and action is spirit. God is eternal - He will not end/die.
The Lord Jesus Christ has received his new spiritual body from God his Father when God raised him up alive. God gave the spirit of holiness to Jesus Christ when He raised him out-from the dead-people. The spirit of holiness will not end/die.
Holy-people (true Christians) have received the gift of holy spirit, which is the spirit of Christ in us. Refer to the article Pentecost and the Gift of holy spirit. The gift of holy spirit will not end/die.
The spirit of man refers to the movement of blowing air/wind. It is the consistency and constitution of the soulish living and moving man in the man's sphere of action, which is the soulish and fleshy realm. It excludes God's consistency and constitution, and excludes the gift of holy spirit that is currently available to mankind from God. The spirit of soulish man will end/die.
Angels are spirits (spirit-beings). Refer to the article Angels. Angels can end/die.
In the literal sense this word refers to the life of the physical body which is evidenced by breathing, the soul/breath life, what allows a human-being to move and work, etc, living in the physical category.
In the figurative sense this word refers to a person's being, including his/her character and disposition living everyday life, all that emanates from the soul such as movement, speech, etc, actions done according to and motivated by soul.
All living creatures on earth (animals, fish, birds) have soul which is the life of their physical bodies (Genesis 1:20; Ecclesiastes 3:19).
All living people on earth (human-beings) have soul which is the life of their physical bodies (Genesis 2:7).
All living creatures and mankind on earth have physical, fleshy bodies.
The Lord Jesus Christ who is the new man has his new spiritual body.
This article includes references to spirit, soul, and body as used in the Bible.
and of spirit (spirit-life, this includes all that emanates from the spirit, such as movement, speech, etc, actions done according to and motivated by spirit; every holy-person has received holy spirit-life inside of us).
The word of God distinguishes between spirit and soul - they are not the same.
during the time when he is old (in old age)?
is he?" The Greek construction of this question indicates that Nicodemus expected a negative answer: "no, a man is not able to do such a thing." He knew that this was not the way to accomplish what Jesus told him - but what was it?
is spirit (a spirit of the same kind, having the make-up or consistency of spirit).
.23but (the) hour comes and now is when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for even the Father seeks-after the people-of-this-kind worshipping Him. .24God (is) Spirit, and it is necessary (for) the (people) worshipping Him to worship in spirit and truth."
for the Father looks for the people of this sort (such people) who are worshipping Him.
The spirit of mankind is the consistency and constitution of the soulish living and moving man in the man's sphere of action, which is the soulish and fleshy realm. The body and soul man is limited to his fleshy body and his soul-life, which is evidenced by breathing. It is his soul-life that keeps his body living.
The spirit of the man excludes God's consistency and constitution, and excludes the gift of holy spirit that is currently available to mankind from God Who is Holy Spirit.
No man among men knows the things of another man except the man himself. The man himself is the only man who knows what are his own deep thoughts, his personal feelings and desires, etc, unless that man makes them known to somebody else and then that other person can also know. But if the man does not tell anyone what he is thinking or feeling, etc - then no other man really knows what is going on deep down inside him. They could guess but guessing cannot give a deep and full and accurate answer!
Only God Himself truly and personally knows what are His deep thoughts, His personal feelings and desires, etc – unless God Himself makes them known to some other spirit or person, and then that other spirit or person can also know. But if God does not tell anyone - then nobody or nothing else really knows the things deep down inside Him, and someone guessing or theorizing what these are does-not and cannot give a deep and full and accurate answer!
God personally knows what He is doing, what He is planning, etc, and God may reveal this information to others. It is only those things that God reveals and makes known which can be known outside of God. No spirit or person can force God into revealing or making-known His wisdom or knowledge, etc, nor can any spirit or person access that information without God's permission.
Paul continues by teaching clearly the difference between the people who do not have holy spirit-life within them – and holy-people (Christians) who have received holy spirit-life from God by means of the Lord Jesus Christ.
A "soulish" man is referring to any man who does not have holy spirit-life because he has not believed what God has given to be believed regarding Himself and His son, the Lord Jesus Christ (refer to Romans 10:9 and 10). A soulish man only has soul/breath life in his body which keeps him alive in the flesh and physical category and it is evidenced by his breathing. His mode of operation is limited to the natural/physical realm.
in conjunction with his own mind?"
The unwritten answer to this question is already provided by Paul in verse 15: no-one - because God is the source of His spiritual information, He makes His own decisions, He communicates what He intends to communicate - therefore holy-people cannot be judged-up regarding what God graces to us.
.24But some Judean, Apollos by-name, Alexandrian by genus, a wordy adult-male, came-down into Ephesus being able in the writings. .25This-person was having been resounded2 (concerning) the way of the Lord, and boiling with spirit he uttered-forth and taught accurately the-things concerning Jesus, well-knowing only John's baptism; .26and this-person began to boldly-speak in the synagogue, but having heard him Priscilla and Aquila took him towards-themselves and they expounded the way of God more-accurately to him.
Apollos had been orally taught information concerning the manner of action of the Lord, which was what John the baptizer (the baptist) had preached during his ministry. He was "boiling with spirit" - this means that he was fervent or hot, being lively and energetic and giving it everything he could physically. This is not referring to holy spirit-life because Apollos did not have it at that time.
Apollos spoke and taught the people in Ephesus accurately (exactly, precisely) the-things about Jesus (what was written in the scriptures about Jesus and what John the baptizer had taught people). He was only aware of John's baptism, which was washing with physical water (H2O). This tells us that Apollos did not teach about baptism in holy spirit. He did not know about the day of Pentecost and how God by means of the Lord Jesus Christ shed forth holy spirit-life!
But after Priscilla and Aquila heard him in the synagogue, they took Apollos to themselves (perhaps into their house) and they expounded the way of God (the action that God purposed and accomplished by means of Jesus) more exactly to him than what he already knew.
.17But you, loved-people1, must be caused-to-remember the spoken-matters, the (spoken-matters) having been said-beforehand2 by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ, .18because they used-to-say to you that on (the) last time there will be deriders journeying according to the intense-yearnings of themselves of the lacks-of-reverence; .19these are the (people) throughly-separating, soulish-people not having spirit.
not having spirit (these people do not have holy spirit-life within their bodies, because they have not believed what God has given to be believed regarding Himself and His son, the Lord Jesus Christ as detailed in Romans 10:9 and 10 ).
.50But Jesus again having shouted with a great sound left the spirit. .51And look!, the veil of the interior-temple was divided away from-the-top until below into two, and the earth was caused-to-quake, and the rocks were divided.
While Jesus was hanging on the cross when he was crucified, he cried out with a loud voice and let the holy spirit-life within him go from his concern and thereby he willingly permitted God to take it back away from him. The temporary spiritual connection that he had with God was gone. This was Jesus' spiritual death, loss of holy spirit-life, which was followed immediately by his physical death, loss of the soul/breath life of his fleshy body described in verse 51.
.28After this Jesus, having known that already all-things were completed2 - in order that the writing may be made-complete - says, "I thirst." .29A vessel used-to-lie full of sharp-wine, therefore they carried-towards his mouth a sponge full of sharp-wine having put (it) around a hyssop. .30Therefore when he received the sharp-wine Jesus said, "It was completed2" - and having leaned the head he gave the spirit over (to God).
he gave the spirit over to God (he handed it over, delivered it alongside/beside God; he willingly permitted God to take it back away from him).
This was Jesus' spiritual death, loss of holy spirit-life, followed immediately by his physical death, loss of the soul/breath life of his fleshy body.
.59and they threw-stones-at Stephen calling-upon (the Lord Jesus) to-himself and saying, "Lord Jesus, you must accept my spirit," .60and having knelt-down he shouted with a great sound, "Lord, may you not cause this sin to stand to them," and having said this he was caused-to-sleep.
As soon as Stephen had made this request to the Lord Jesus, he was caused to sleep - Stephen died.
Today, when a holy-person (a true Christian) who has received holy spirit-life within him/her dies, his/her holy spirit goes back to God and the Lord Jesus Christ because that is where it came from in the first place; then that person physically dies - breathes the last breath, and the body goes back to the dust of the ground. This state of death is called "sleep" from God's and the Lord Jesus Christ's point of view because it is a temporary state and not a permanent condition for any holy-person (Christian) who dies before Christ comes to gather all the church of holy-people together with him. Also refer to the article Hope and Resurrection.
.5But Ananias hearing these words, having fallen, he ex-souled, and great fear became on all the (people) hearing, .6and the younger-men having stood-up drew him together, and having carried (him) out they buried (him).
When Ananias heard the words that Peter spoke in this situation, he fell down to the ground and then the life of his physical body ended evidenced by his breathing out his last breath (he expired, he died). What Peter had spoken to him was true - but there is no record of Ananias asking for healing or any other kind of help.
.9But (there was) some young-man, Eutychus by-name, sitting-down on the window being carried-down by a deep sleep (during) Paul's throughly-speaking on more (time); having been carried-down from the sleep he fell below from the third-floor and he was lifted dead. .10But Paul having descended fell-upon him and having embraced (him) he said, "You must not be-tumultuous for his soul is in him."
.11And having ascended and having broken the bread and having tasted, and having talked-in-company on a sufficient-amount continuously-until light, thus he went-out; .12and they led the child living, and they were encouraged not measurably.
Paul and those with him had assembled-together with the other brothers (holy-people, Christians) to break bread. It was the day before Paul was due to depart from them, and he extending his teaching of the Word of God up-until midnight.
However, some young man (youth) named Eutychus was sitting down on the window-ledge and he was sinking down into a deep sleep while Paul continued further speaking. But after he was overcome by sleep he fell downwards out of the window, which was on the third floor of the house, and he died as a result of the fall!
to embrace his body (to put his arms around him).
Paul was walking in accordance with the information his holy spirit-life was giving to him. Paul was obeying the Word of God which was being revealed to him at that very moment regarding what to do about this situation with this young man.
Then he said to the believers who had come together with him that they must not be tumultuous (making an uproar, causing a scene among themselves) because the young-man's soul (breath life) is within him – he's alive now, not dead! Paul had healed Eutychus from being dead to being alive in the physical category.
Paul went up again to the meeting-room.
it was in this manner that he departed from them.
They brought the child (referring to the young-man as a child since he was a servant by occupation), who was now living again, with them to see Paul off as he went on his journey; and they were encouraged beyond measure.
.7Even-yet the-things without-soul giving sound, whether a pipe or a lyre, if-ever it may not give distinction with the tones, how will the-thing being played-on-the-pipe or the-thing being played-on-the-lyre be known? .8For also if-ever a trumpet may give an unclear sound, who will prepare-himself for war?
or what is being played on the lyre (the strings of a lyre, harp, guitar, or lute)?
.22and the-things now – I advise you to be well-minded for there will be not-one throwing-away of soul from you, besides of the ship, .23for an angel of God, Whose I am and to Whom I render-service, stood-beside me this night .24saying, 'You must not be fearful, Paul, it is necessary (for) you to stand-beside Caesar; and look!, God has graced2 to you all the (people) sailing with you.' .25On-this-account you must be well-minded, adult-males, for I believe God that thus it will be according to which manner it was uttered-forth2 to me, .26but it is necessary (for) us to fall into some island."
besides of the ship (except, other-than that the ship will be wrecked).
.37and all the souls in the ship were two-hundred seventy six.
There were 276 people on board. All of these people were not holy-people (Christians) but all of them were alive in the physical, flesh category - they had soul/breath life and did not lose it during this bad storm.
what you may clothe yourselves with (what you would put-on your physical body, as going inside of a garment, what you would envelop your body with).
isn't it? Yes. The Greek sentence structure indicates that the expected answer of this rhetorical question is: yes.
If a person did not have a soul and a body then all the nourishment and clothes in the world would be useless because nourishment and clothes do not make or form a soul and a body.
.24who himself offered-up our sins in his body on the wooden-stake in order that (after our) having become-away from the sins we may live to the righteousness; by whose wound you were healed, .25for you used-to-be as sheep being caused-to-wander but now you were turned-back on the shepherd and overseer of your souls.
…by whose wound you were healed. It was with/by Christ's welt, the total effect on his body which included his death, that you were caused to recover from illness.
of your souls (pertaining to the life of your bodies currently evidenced by breathing, and figuratively referring to your beings, including your character and disposition as you are living your lives).
2:1And in the fulfillment (of) the day of Pentecost they were all together on the same-place, .2and there became suddenly out-from heaven a sound wholly-as (the) carrying of a violent blowing and it filled the whole house where they were sitting-down, .3and tongues being throughly-distributed were seen by them as-though of fire and it sat-down on each one of them, .4and they were all filled of holy spirit, and they began to utter-forth with different tongues according as the spirit gave to them (the words) to precisely-speak-out.
In verse 4 we read that the men were all caused to be filled of (filled up with) holy spirit. This holy (sanctified) spirit is the spirit that God had promised by means of the Lord Jesus Christ! They already had soul/breath life within their physical bodies which made them living beings in the flesh category, but now they had just received holy spirit life which made them living in the spirit category. This is what they were waiting for as Christ Jesus had instructed them just before his ascension into heaven.
The apostles began to utter-forth with different tongues (different languages other-than their own known languages) according as the spirit, which they had just received, was giving them the words to speak-out. They spoke what their spirit was continuing to give them to speak.
"This is the Jesus whom God resurrected of whom emphatically we all are witnesses.
All of those present in the temple saw and heard the twelve uttering-forth with tongues. The twelve had spoken by way of the holy spirit-life which was now within them because they had been baptized in holy spirit! This is what God had promised and this is what the Lord Jesus Christ had promised and told them to wait for in Jerusalem not many days from the day of his ascension into heaven.
.38And Peter (said) towards them, "You must repent and each of you must be baptized on the name of Jesus Christ into (the) dismissal of your sins and you will receive the free-gift of the holy spirit, .39for the promise is to you and to your children and to all the (people) into distant-places as-many-as ever (the) Lord our God may call-towards-Himself,"
and you will receive the free-gift of the holy spirit (you will take to yourselves the present which is given to you from God by means of the Lord Jesus Christ which is holy spirit-life)."
and they had just received holy spirit-life, which was the life they had been missing before their reception of it.
.23But may the God of the peace Himself make wholly-completive you holy, and may your whole-lot - the spirit and the soul and the body - be blamelessly kept in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ.
.9But you are not in flesh but in spirit since-indeed (the) spirit of God dwells in you; but if someone does not have (the) spirit of Christ, this person is not His; .10but since Christ (dwells) in you, the body indeed (is) dead because-of sin but the spirit (is) life because-of righteousness; .11and since the spirit of the (One) having raised-up Jesus out-from dead-people dwells in you, the (One) having raised-up Christ out-from dead-people will make-alive also your mortal bodies by means of His spirit indwelling in you.
since it is a fact emphatically that the spirit of/from God dwells in you (the spirit belonging-to and proceeding-from God inhabits or houses within you; the phrase "spirit of God" emphasizes that God is the originator of this spirit).
this person is not His (anyone who does not have holy spirit-life does not belong to God and therefore also does not belong to Christ; this person is not a member of God's family).
by means of His spirit indwelling in you (inhabiting, housing within you holy-people).
"Abba, Father" (the word Abba is an Aramaic or Hebrew word meaning "Father", it was considered the language of the Scriptures because the old covenant was written in Hebrew; the reverential Abba is written plus the Greek which was the language Paul spoke and wrote to the Christians in Rome; we shout with reverence, not fear of death, to God within the holy spirit-life we have: "Abba, Father" – and it does not matter what language a person speaks in the flesh category; the only true God is Father of the holy spirit-life which He placed in us; God is our Father in the spirit category, not the flesh realm).
.6but (since it is true) that you are sons (it is true that) God apostled-out His spirit into our hearts shouting, "Abba, Father" – .7so-that you are no-longer a slave but a son, but since (you are) a son (you are) also an inheritor by means of God.
The word Abba is an Aramaic word meaning "Father." All holy-people (true Christians) have the spirit of Christ in us and therefore God is our Father in the spirit category.
by means of God Who is your Father spiritually.
and sound-thinking (thoughts that are sound, safe in God's viewpoint, with prudence, thoughts in alignment with salvation).
Paul writes: it is imperative that you live in the duty of being citizens (in accordance with your citizenship, behave in accordance with the governing authority and enjoy the privileges which you have been given) worthily of the good-message of Christ (in a manner of equal-value with the gospel/evangel pertaining to Christ).
with/by/in the belief of the good-message (that-which is given to be believed, the faith or trust belonging-to and pertaining-to the gospel).
.18You must flee fornication; every sin which if-ever a man may do is outside-of the body, but the (person) fornicating sins into (his) own body. .19Or, you knew2 that your body is (the) interior-temple of the holy spirit in you which you have from God, and you are not of yourselves, don't you? – (yes) – .20for you were bought of price; indeed you must glorify God in your body.
and you are not belonging to yourselves (there is no place for "doing it my way" or "doing what the committee says" if it is against what God says!)?
within the sphere of action of your body (everything that you do with your body during the everyday living of your lives must be to God's glory).
...which is your logical rendering-of-service (your performance of service to/for God that pertains to reason, the correct calculation of service).
The word translated as "judgment-seat" literally means a step or a raised-platform reached by steps. It is an area where someone, such as a judge, would speak-from to the assembly of people present. In this context it refers to Christ's judgment-seat, his tribune, his judicial-bench. He will do the judging, the decision-making regarding those in front of him, in accordance with God's will because God has given all judgment to His son.
.20for our citizenship is-from-the-beginning in (the) heavens out-from where also we eagerly-await (the) savior (who is the) Lord Jesus Christ .21who will change-the-outward-figure (of) the body of our humiliation (to be) formed-together with the body of his glory according to the in-working (for) him to be able and to subject all-things to him.
the body of his glory (the body of the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ; this body is and emanates his state of glory, importance, splendor, and renown, he is in his glorious position because God raised him out-from among the dead-people giving him his new spiritual body and God placed him at His right side).
and to subject all-things to him (cause all-things to be in submission, to be arranged in the position of being underneath the Lord Jesus Christ, excluding God his Father, of course).
God is the One Who subjects everything under the Lord Jesus Christ so that in the future Christ will subject everything including himself to the only true God.
God's good-message is about His son who is Jesus Christ our Lord. Jesus is the Lord (Master) of all holy-people (Christians). In these two verses we have a short summary to let us know exactly who God's son is by name and title (position, qualification).
out-from resurrection of dead-people (originating from the standing-up of dead-people).
Jesus Christ was definitely marked out as THE SON OF GOD in ability - how? - by the spirit of (consisting of) holiness. God gave the spirit of holiness to Jesus Christ when He raised him out-from the dead-people and therefore the spirit of holiness (sanctity) is the spiritual essence of the resurrected Christ Jesus.
but having been made-alive in spirit (he was given life in the spiritual body with its holy spirit life that he received when God raised him up alive from being dead).
.42thus also the resurrection of the dead-people: it is sown in corruption – it is raised-up in incorruption; .43it is sown in dishonor – it is raised-up in glory; it is sown in weakness – it is raised-up in ability; .44it is sown a soulish body – it is raised-up a spiritual body. Since there is a soulish body, there is also a spiritual (body), .45thus also it was written2, "the first man, Adam, became into a soul living," the last (man became) into a spirit making-alive, .46but the spiritual (body is) not first but the soulish (body is first), next the spiritual (body).
but it is caused to be raised-up a spiritual body (the life of this body is spirit; it is the spirit that keeps a resurrected person alive).
became into a spirit making alive (he came to pass to be a spirit that is making life, he resulted in being a life-producing spirit, not only being spiritually alive but producing this spiritual life; the resurrected Lord Jesus Christ is not a spirit-being as the angels are, but he has his new body, the life of which is holy spirit, which is the totality of the life of his body - permanently).
The Lord Jesus Christ was born with a physical fleshy body which had soul-life in it so that he could live and breathe in the physical realm – the same as Adam. Also, during his life God gave him holy spirit upon the same condition by-which He gave spirit to Adam, and that was to believe and do what God said. Jesus Christ chose to always do those things which pleased God, his Father.
When Jesus was put-to-death by crucifixion (when he died) and was buried, he stayed dead for three days and three nights – then God graciously raised him up from among the rest of the dead-people and gave him a new spiritual body. This is when Christ became a spirit making-alive, the second and last man from the viewpoint that he is the new kind of man that God has created.
Christ now has his new body with its life-making spirit, and so he cannot be put-to-death by anyone or anything, plus he has the ability to cause others to be made alive as he is at a future time.
after that (secondly, next sequentially) the spiritual body comes into existence at the time of resurrection.
Jesus Christ, being a descendant of Adam, first lived with his fleshy/physical body with soul-life whereby he could live, but he was killed – however, God raised him up out-from the rest of the dead-people and Christ received his new body with spirit-life whereby he is now alive.


Dahlan Al Hamad, President of the Asian Athletics Association and Vice President of the International Association of Athletics Federations, said Doha 2019 will be one of the most important tournaments in the history of Asia as Doha, the world-renowned athletics destination, is set to welcome Asia's top athletes.
"I'm thrilled to welcome Asia's elite athletes to Doha, the global hub for athletics, where our outstanding facilities promise to deliver a flawless experience for everyone involved in the event," said Al Hamad.
Al Hamad said this edition of the continental athletics showpiece brings together nearly 1,000 athletes and up to 450 officials from 45 countries, who will compete for top honors in the world's most populous continent.
"Qatar is about to embark on an enthralling summer of first-class athletics with the IAAF Diamond League and IAAF World Athletics Championships to follow as top athletics events staged in Doha. There is no better way to test our preparations for such major events than hosting the Asian Athletics Championships," Al Hamad added.
Over morning and evening sessions in which participating athletes will compete for 186 medals in 21 men's events, 21 women's events in addition to a mixed relay event that makes its debut in the Asian Athletics Championships.
The tournament will see the usual continental powerhouses go head-to-head for the number one spot in Asia's athletics. After an initial period of Japanese dominance over the championship, China has taken over as undisputed champion for 17 consecutive editions until it was unseated by last editions hosts and eventual winners, India.
"It's a great honor to welcome some of the finest athletes in the world to Doha for yet another major athletics event. As always, our facilities and infrastructure are ready to help athletes compete at their best and deliver an amazing atmosphere for fans of the game in Qatar and the region," said Qatar Athletics Federation President Dr Thani bin Abdulrahman Al Kuwari.


Puli koddel is another popular konkani dish. It is made for special occasions as it doesn't have onion or garlic. This dish has the fresh flavors from the spices, sweetness from jaggery, sourness from tamarind and the sesame seeds (special ingredient which gives a different taste as well as a dark color to the dish), together makes it delicious.
Remove the peel and seeds of the ash gourd and cut in to pieces.
Cook these pieces in a cooker (two whistles) by adding little water and salt to taste.
To prepare masala: Roast coconut until light brown and allow it to cool. Now fry coriander seeds, chanadal, cumin, fenugreek, asafoetida, turmeric, sesame seeds and rice with little oil (I fried sesame seeds and rice separately without adding oil and the rest together with little oil. You can also add few curry leaves while frying which enhances the taste of the masala as well as adds more iron into it).
After everything gets cooled, grind all of them together along with roasted red chillies and tamarind. Add little water which will help to give a smooth paste.
Add this masala to the cooked ash gourd and mix well. Bring it to a boil. Now add jaggery and check for salt. Add water, if required to get the right consistency (don't make it too watery). After it comes to a boil, continue heating for five more minutes and turn off the heat.
For seasoning- heat oil and add mustard seeds. Once it starts spluttering, add curry leaves and turn off the heat. Add it to the prepared curry and mix well. Puli koddel is ready!!
Serve it hot with rice, dosa or rotis. Above measurement serves 2-3 people.


Indiana Home Comfort Solutions serviced my water heater. Great job!
very good service and your company and personal very good to work with.
Tech was a nice, young man.
I was very impressed with the whole audit process and the Aeroseal Duct Sealing product that you used to seal the leaks in our duct work.
I would definitely recommend them to friends!
"Hi Robin, Terri Hanson here in Brownsburg. You came out..."
"Justin always does a great job!"
After preparing the scuttle, Dustin carefully installs the SilverGlo insulation.
Brad and Dustin are preparing the attic scuttle to be insulated with SilverGlo.
Phil and Cindy N. of Brownsburg, IN had Indiana Home Comfort Solutions come out to perform a routine maintenance tune-up on their furnace. As the technicians began to inspect their furnace, they discovered a cracked heat exchanger. Damaged heat exchangers can be dangerous, as they increase the risk of emitting harmful fumes and gasses into the air, such as carbon monoxide. Additionally, they can prevent the furnace from running efficiently.
During the tune-up, the IHCS team discovered problems with Phil and Cindy's duct work. After discussing the problem and agreeing on a solution, Phil and Cindy had the team effectively seal their duct work with Aeroseal Duct Sealing.
Phil and Cindy are now comfortable in their home and learned the importance of having a routine tune-up performed on equipment!
Bill from Brownsburg, IN was experiencing problems with his A/C unit. Indiana Home Comfort Solutions inspected his home and found that the static pressure in the ductwork was high due to a bad filter, the blower wheel on the a/c unit was very dirty and needed to be cleaned (also caused by a bad filter), and the furnace needed a new media filter.
By cleaning the blower wheel and replacing all filters necessary, the units were able to run efficiently.Tune ups are everything in the world of HVAC. Bill's problems were caused by bad filters, which is why it is important to have all units maintained throughout the seasons!
Denise F. of Brownsburg, IN was having problems with his duct work. It was making a lot of noise! He estimated the duct work to be about 20+years old and called Indiana Home Comfort Solutions to have them inspect it. An inspection revealed that the ducts were really dirty and needed to be sealed properly. Parts of the duct work were falling apart due to age, causing it to be noisy. Additionally, a leakage test showed the ducts had 223 CFM of leakage which is equivalent to a 42 square in hole!
A duct cleaning was performed, cleaning all cold air returns and supply ducts using a high pressure air and vac system. They were then sanitized with a bacteria and order control formula. The parts of the duct work that were falling apart due to age were repaired based on condition, though some areas were replaced. Aeroseal Duct Sealing was installed to effectively seal duct work and prevent air leakage. A leakage test was performed after installation and showed the described solutions decreased leakage down to 13 CFM, which is equivalent to a 2 square inch hole! Not only did Indiana Home Comfort Solutions fix the noise problem for Denise, but they helped improved Heating & Cooling Capacity by 17%!


a special site just north of the town of Yamhill. We love this wine's deep ruby color and fabulous depth. Wine Spectator remarked that this is "Precise, deeply structured yet graceful, with expressive black cherry, river stone and black tea accents that build richness." Willamette Valley Pinot at its finest!

How did you get those amazing blue/white dots behind the red decanter?
And did you touch up your Yellow Tail photo afterwards to get that perfect out of focus blurred yellow line of labels?
Thanks Vivien! And yes, red is certainly abundant when your grandfather's house is completely filled with Chinese artifacts and decorations.
The blue/white dots or circles in that photo are a result of the lens bokeh. It's something that's caused by specular highlights when they're severely out of focus and when the lens has a wide aperture. I shot it at f/1.4 and at a very close distance, so anything immediately behind the plane of focus is thrown out of focus very rapidly.
Same thing with the Yellow Tail bottles — It's all due to the wide aperture of the lens. The only thing I post-processed for was some basic colors and contrast. The blur and perspective are things that were "placed" into the photo the instant I released the shutter. You can also see varying degrees of bokeh in that photo — as the bottles get further away, the circles caused by the light reflections get larger and larger.
This is why I'm so in love with that 50mm f/1.4 lens I just picked up — it can do really amazing things like this.
thanks for the answers, Brian. I will for sure be bugging you for advice (hope you won't mind that much ;-)) on lenses/camera when I'll finally decide on purchasing a professional SLR camera. With the recent move to a new house and renovations there as so many expenses, I keep postponing buying an expensive camera (and especially the lenses) for myself.
Beautiful!!! I love the "red" shoot the blurry background and glass sparkles just make the main object speaks beautifully!

SECP warns public against dealing with dubious company
ISLAMABAD: The Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) has cautioned the public to be aware of unauthorised activities of Ms Galaxy Typing Jobs (SMC-Private) Limited as the company has been found involved in illegal deposit taking by offering hefty monthly profits on fixed investments.
The SECP has initiated proceedings against the company under Section 301 read with Section 304 of the Companies Act, 2017. The Commission had earlier issued pubic warning against such companies in newspapers and had referred the case to relevant investigating agencies.
The SECP has now come to know that the company is involved in fraudulent activities in the garb of investment with the intent of depriving the public of their hard-earned money and for that purpose, the company has also maintained a website, fraudulently claiming that it had been approved by the SECP.
The Commission clarified that it never granted any approval to the company for taking deposits from the public.
It has also been observed that the company is using the abbreviation of its name, i.e. GTJ (Private) Limited. "The public is hereby informed that the SECP has not registered any company by the name of GTJ (Private) Limited," SECP said.
Moreover, the Securities and Exchange Commission has warned the public against falling prey to fraudulent activities such as ponzi, pyramid and multilevel marketing schemes launched by various companies through advertising in the electronic and print media, websites, emails and text messages.

LiquidFiles is created using an 8Gb partition, which is enough to get started and try things out. In most cases though, you will probably need to add more disk space for production usage. This artice outlines how to do that.
The first step is to login to the Amazon EC2 Console and click on Volumes and then Create Volume.
When that's completed, we can login to the LiquidFiles system and select to use the data disk as in the screenshot below. After you've selected the new disk, please restart the system and on restart all the data will be moved to the selected disk and when the system has come up, you will have the 100Gb data disk as file storage.
If you need to increase the disk size further on, you can just add another larger disk, say a 150 Gb or a 200 Gb disk and repeat this procedure. Once the data has been migrated, you can delete the first data disk.


In granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA), peripheral nerve involvement is common but central nervous system (CNS) involvement is extremely rare and treatment strategy has not been established. We report a case of intravenous cyclophosphamide (IVCY)-resistant GPA with associated cranial neuropathies that was successfully treated with rituximab (RTX).
A 37-year-old man with intractable sinusitis had several months of headache, hoarseness, and dysphagia; a month of right-sided deafness and nasal bleeding; and a week of dysarthria, steppage gait, and numbness in the right L5 distribution. A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination of the head showed an infiltrative lesion in the right skull base encasing the carotid sheath. Computed tomography (CT) scan of the chest revealed a 23 mm nodule in the left upper lobe. Histology was inconclusive. Therefore, the patient was diagnosed as GPA. He was treated with glucocorticoids (GC) and IVCY. Three months later, he was readmitted for recurrence of headache and new left-sided hearing loss. He was treated with GC and RTX, and a 1-year remission followed. The molecular mechanism of RTX is not fully understood. In this case, RTX was more effective at rapidly and strongly suppressing B cells than CY. Since the B cell count was proportional to the patient's clinical manifestations, B cells might represent a suitable target for the treatment of GPA with cranial neuropathies.
GPA with cranial neuropathies might be useful with RTX as induction therapy.
Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) is a systemic necrotizing granulomatous vasculitis that involves the upper airways, lungs, and kidneys. While peripheral nerve involvement is common, central nervous system (CNS) involvement is extremely rare [1, 2]. We report the successful treatment of a case of cyclophosphamide (CY)-resistant GPA with cranial neuropathies with rituximab.
A 37-year-old man was admitted to hospital for several months of headache, hoarseness and dysphagia; a month of right-sided deafness and nasal bleeding; and a week of dysarthria. He had experienced sinusitis for 1 year before admission and had been treated with antibiotics. He was successfully treated with glucocorticoids (GC) for sudden right-sided hearing loss 9 months before admission. His body weight had decreased by 10 kg over the previous month. A week before admission, he developed a right steppage gait and numbness in the right L5 distribution.
On admission, body temperature was 37.7 °C and the rest of his vital signs were normal. Neurological examination showed a bilateral mixed hearing loss, a right curtain sign, weakness of the right trapezius, rightward tongue deviation, and paralysis of the right peroneal nerve. Initial blood tests showed a slightly elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (29 mm/h) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels (1.06 mg/dL), and white blood cell count was slightly increased (8.9 × 109/L). His renal and liver function was normal (eGFR 118 ml/minute/1.73 m2) and the urine test was also normal (proteinuria, hematuria, urinary cast were negative). Anti-nuclear antibody, rheumatoid factor, angiotensin converting enzyme, myeloperoxidase-anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody and soluble interleukin-2 receptor were normal, but proteinase 3-anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody was increased (16.9 IU/mL). Cerebrospinal fluid was normal. A gadolinium-enhanced MRI scan of the head showed an enhancing infiltrative lesion in the right retropharynx encasing the carotid sheath (Fig. 1a), which seemed to cause the paralysis of IX, X, XI and XII nerves. Lumber spine MRI showed no evidence of lumbar disk herniation and nerve conduction study showed the paralysis of the right peroneal nerve. Chest computed tomography showed a 23 mm nodule in the left upper lobe. A CT-guided needle biopsy of the lung lesion and biopsy of the nasal mucosa were performed but showed only infiltration of inflammatory cells and no evidence of malignancy, vasculitis or granuloma. Culture of the lung specimen showed no evidence of infection and the interferon-gamma release assay for Mycobacterium tuberculosis was negative. We diagnosed GPA based on the American College of Rheumatology classification criteria for Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) and classification of WG by the Watts algorism [3, 4].
The patient was treated with prednisone (PSL) 1 mg/kg daily and IVCY 1000 mg every 3 weeks (Fig. 2). His fever, headache, and swallowing function improved rapidly, and peripheral neuropathy also improved, but hoarseness persisted. His Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score 2008 version 3 score improved from 14 to 4, and he was discharged on IVCY and a tapering dose of PSL 45 mg/day .
Three months later, while receiving oral GC and IVCY, he was readmitted for recurrence of headache and right-sided hearing loss. On MRI, the lesion encasing the right carotid sheath has not reduced (Fig. 1b). CRP levels remained slightly increased (1.04 mg/dL). He was treated with RTX 600 mg/week for 4 weeks and GC for re-induction therapy. His headache improved rapidly and hearing ability improved slowly. He was still on GC 1 year after RTX administration, with persistent hoarseness as his only symptom.
To investigate immune status, we tracked peripheral T and B cell counts after RTX administration (Fig. 3). According to the peripheral T and B cell counts, whereas CY treatment with GC reduced the number of peripheral CD4+ and CD8+ T cells and B cells, RTX selectively reduced the number of peripheral B cells slowly over time. B cells tended to decrease 2 weeks after RTX treatment, with the reduction lasting 8 months.
We encountered a case of GPA with lower cranial and peripheral neuropathies. Although GPA often displays neurological involvements, they are mostly peripheral neuropathies and cranial neuropathies are extremely rare. Among cranial neuropathies, optic nerve neuropathy is the most common . The pathogenesis of cranial neuropathies is still unclear because biopsy of the lesion is difficult and risky. It is unclear whether cranial neuropathies arise due to mechanisms of vasculitis or granuloma formation.
We used the PubMed database to retrieve all articles written in English containing the descriptors GPA and cranial neuropathy in their titles or texts, including treatment regimen. The nine known cases of GPA with cranial nerve involvement are listed according to treatment in Table 1 [6–13]. Similar to our case, most cases with lower cranial neuropathies had MRI findings of a unilateral skull base process encasing the carotid sheath. The inflammation of upper respiratory tract lesion might progress posteriorly and extend into the retropharyngeal space. Recently, RTX was shown to be effective for treating anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-positive GPA and microscopic polyangitits. (RAVE study) . However, the effectiveness of RTX in CNS involvement was not evident in the study. Most previous case reports have treated patients with CY for induction therapy, with few receiving GC monotherapy or methotrexate. One patient who was treated with CY had a recurrence and then RTX for re-induction therapy was effective, but long term effectiveness was not shown . The present case is the second case to show the efficacy of RTX in refractory GPA with cranial neuropathies, which induces remission for 1 year.
Another study that demonstrated the efficacy of RTX in refractory GPA showed complete remission/improvement in 89.2% of patients with renal disease and 80.8% with alveolar hemorrhage, but only 44.4% of those with orbital masses and 49.9% with pachymeningitis , suggesting that RTX may be more effective for vasculitic than granulomatous manifestations. While involvement of granulomatous regions was suspected in this cranial neuropathy case , RTX was successfully effective. Further case series study would be needed.
The molecular mechanism of RTX is not fully understood. We speculated that RTX was more effective at rapidly and completely suppressing B cells than CY (Fig. 3). Since B cell count was proportional to the clinical manifestations, B cells might represent a good target for the treatment of GPA with cranial neuropathies. In these cases, rapid suppression of B cells by RTX might be critical.
In conclusions, GPA with cranial neuropathies might be effective with RTX as induction therapy.
