Get off the scale. It cannot measure the Unicorn Ew People Shirt / Unicorn Shirt / Unicorn Gifts / Unicorns / Rainbow Unicorn / Unicorn T-shirt / Unicorn Squad / Tank Top / Hoodie. Put down the measuring stick. It is not long enough to assess your worth. Home: https://t-shirtat.com. So much bigger than me and I'm grateful to be the messenger! Thank you for your love and support. I carry it on little slips of paper in case I run into someone who needs it. Truth be told, I often need it. And I find a lot of people who need it. A few weeks ago, I grabbed it before taking the stage at a speaking event. I hadn't planned to read it, but something told me to share it. My dance teachers don't always appreciate the effort; they appreciate the talent. And they love a long lean look that I don't have.
I thought I might not be able to get my Unicorn Ew People Shirt / Unicorn Shirt / Unicorn Gifts / Unicorns / Rainbow Unicorn / Unicorn T-shirt / Unicorn Squad / Tank Top / Hoodie. Even though I tell myself I know my own truth, it still hurts to feel like I've failed. But your words really made me think, and they gave me courage. I've decided to take this summer to explore and try new things. I wiped away tears when I read those freeing, hopeful words. I thought perhaps this young lady will be spared from knowing the pain and exhaustion that comes from hiding. What gives us value is not a number or a score, but rather our unique contribution to the world. Come as you are, beautiful souls. If you don't, you'll be missed and you'll miss out.

EU Reportedly Furious With BoJo Over 'Bullsh**' Brexit Plans: 'We've Been Here Before'
© REUTERS / HANNAH MCKAY
Following Theresa May's resignation as PM, the hopefuls to succeed her - Boris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt, have both declared their intention to implement Brexit, as well as their willingness to leave the EU without a trade deal after the 31 October deadline if no agreement is reached.
Brussels has become embroiled in a spat with Tory leadership hopeful Boris Johnson, the Sun reported, citing sources in the European Union.
Johnson declared his intention to seek a "transition period" if Britain was forced to leave the EU with no deal on the 31st of October.
He said: "I have myself to decide under the current terms of the extension that we have, to apply for such an extension."
"It is up to the EU to decide whether to grant it. At the moment, the law says that the UK is leaving the EU; international treaty law says the UK is leaving the EU on the 31st of October.'
Commenting on the plans, one EU diplomat told The Sun that Britain will have to meet certain criteria regarding the backstop, citizens' rights, and the divorce agreement.
He explained that the agreement is a package deal and that Britain cannot pick and choose which parts to accept.
"This is an old UK idea, to secure the parts you like and forget the rest. But it's a package."
He continued by saying that the former foreign secretary's plan just "isn't going to fly".
"What is missing is finances and the backstop, so he would get all he wants. And you'd need our agreement for that. It's nonsense."
Another EU representative rebuffed Johnson's plans, calling them "bull****".
"Boris can bull**** all he likes. We've been here before."
"If we didn't make concessions for a Remainer like May, why would we make them for a populist architect of Brexit?" he told The Sun.
According to the Express, another EU official indicated that Boris Johnson's no deal bluster would not last, saying: "What can we say? I assume that his ideas will probably evolve the moment he steps into Downing Street."
However, Johnson has committed to scrapping Theresa May's withdrawal agreements and threatened to withhold the £39 billion divorce bill.
He derided her "pathetic" attempt to negotiate a deal and claimed that Mrs. May had agreed to "the high end of the EU's expectations".
A failure to deliver Brexit by 31 October may call the future of the Conservative Party itself into question.
Jacob Rees-Mogg, head of the European Research Group (ERG) and Boris Johnson supporter said to LBC on Monday that if "the Tories don't leave, or don't get us out on 31 October, then there will be no Tory party left to lead, that's the issue we are facing."
Mr Johnson has echoed these claims, saying that the government faces an "existential crisis" if it does not deliver Brexit. He also hinted in an interview with TalkRadio that he would resign if the UK were not to leave by 31 October.
The Labour shadow Brexit secretary Sir Keir Starmer sent a a direct message to Mr Johnson regarding attempting a no deal Brexit, saying: "If you become Prime Minister, Parliament will do everything it can to block no-deal on 31 October. No ifs, no buts."

I am a naturopathic doctor. I know, I know…what the heck is that, right? That might actually be the $64,000 question of my career.
You see, I grew up the daughter of two pharmacists. The health-care I received was rooted in a "here take this" approach, with over-the-counter and prescription medications the sole remedy for any complaint I had.
Even at a young age, this didn't sit well with me. I was constantly asking why. Will it hurt me? Is there anything else I can do? Is there something I can eat? Is there anything more natural?
Identify and treat the cause—get to the root of the problem, don't just suppress symptoms.
Treat the whole person—people are so much more than their physical bodies.
Doctor as teacher—education equals patient empowerment.
Prevention is the cure—always look for optimal wellness.
First, do no harm—use the least invasive methods to diagnose and treat.
This is exactly how I look at the lovely, once celebrated and natural life phase that is menopause. I truly believe that the only normal sign or symptom of menopause is a cessation of the menstrual cycle. That is it!
Everything else that a woman experience at this precious time in her life, deserves a deeper look. This has been substantiated for me not only through research but by my clinical practice as well. I care for many women who enter menopause and don't experience anything except their periods stopping.
Although everything from hot flashes to urinary incontinence to hair thinning is considered a "symptom of menopause," I categorize these issues more accurately as "symptoms associated with menopause" to avoid pathologizing this process and to really help understand the mechanisms that are in play as we age.
In a blog, it can be difficult to individualize issues. But a woman's individual history, lifestyle, diet and myriad other factors contribute significantly to how she feels and what she is going through. I will try to tease these issues in our modern day out as we traverse the natural side of menopause together!

Q: Best practices for interceptor implementation in Aurelia What is the recommended (general) approach for implementing interceptor's logic in Aurelia?
Aurelia doc states following for fetch interceptor's request method:

request [method] takes the Request that will be passed to window.fetch() after interceptors run. It should return the same Request, or create a new one. It can also return a Response to short-circuit the call to fetch() and complete the request immediately. Errors thrown in request interceptors will be handled by requestError interceptors.

Having this in mind, let's consider 3 sample use cases:

*

*Add some information to the request that is being made i.e. route where this request was initiated.
request(requestMessage) {
    requestMessage.urlHash = window.location.hash;

    return requestMessage;
}

a) Is it a good approach to add some data to the requestMessage config object - mutate current config and return it?
b) Maybe it is better to return a new object containing config, so requestMessage is immutable? Something like the code below. I guess, fetch isn't going to work with this object passed through instead of requestMessage itself.
return {
    request: requestMessage,
    urlHash: window.location.hash,
    someOtherData: data
};

*Reject request before it is being created i.e. user token expired, so there is no need to perform a request, that will fail on API side and just reject the request.
request(requestMessage) {
    if (authenticationService.isTokenExpired()) {
        requestMessage.tokenExpired = true;

        // We can use reject or throw here
        // Let's be explicit and return promises as applying interceptors logic
        // is based on promise chaining
        return Promise.reject(requestMessage);
    }

    return Promise.resolve(requestMessage);
}

a) In this case, the same questions as above, is it recommended to modify requestMessage to add some data to the rejected request? Maybe we should return a custom Error here in the rejected promise, something like new TokenExpiredError(requestMessage)?
b) Is it good to return different object in rejected promise? For example:
return Promise.reject({
    request: requestMessage,
    error: new TokenExpiredError('User token expired!')
});

*Similar use case as in point 1, but let's consider response interceptor method. The logic would be to block request that was made on a different route (hash fragment) and was resolved in current route - basically resolved after navigating to the new route.
response(responseMessage) {
    const currentUrlHash = window.location.hash;
    const requestMessage = responseMessage.requestMessage;

    if (requestMessage.urlHash !== currentUrlHash) {
        responseMessage.blockedRequest = true;

        return Promise.reject(responseMessage);
    }

    return Promise.resolve(responseMessage);
}

a) How to handle this case, where we use information set before the request was made?
b) Where to put that kind of data?
c) How to handle blocking, maybe rejecting custom Error would be enough, like new BlokedReuqestError(responseMessage) ?
Last one thing, how returning custom object from interceptor's method (not request nor response message) can affect default interceptor added using standard configuration - rejectErrorResponses ?
Thanks in advance for any advice and suggestions :)

With both terrible and wonderful pandemic news on the horizon and the vaccine rolling out (fast) across the US, it's a good time to answer the big hitter questions about the groundbreaking COVID-19 vaccines.
In the last week of February 2021, the United States marked its 500,000th death from COVID-19. Flags hung half-mast and the President asked us to all stand in a moment of silence at sunset on the evening of February 22nd to honor the many Americans lost to Coronavirus. The profound impact of this pandemic is so momentous it's often felt to me outrageously overwhelming and hard to even grasp—all at the same time.
Concurrently, COVID-19 infection rates are dropping rapidly, and the COVID-19 vaccine has been applauded as one of many key factors to these truly awesome changes in the United States.
While vaccinations are not solely responsible for helping squash the COVID curve, the immunity achieved from the vaccine (as more and more people become eligible and get those shots in their arms) is a huge contributor to future freedom.
According to the CDC, there has been a five-week plus downward trend in infections with new infection rates dropping a whopping 69% from their peak in January. Additionally, as of mid-February, 1.6 million people per week on average are getting the vaccine with somewhere between 5% and 12% of the United States fully vaccinated, or on their way to full vaccination by the time this article is published (you can read more about these stats here). These numbers are staggering.
As I mentioned, the improvement in cases can't all be attributed to vaccine administration but this is a huge helper. If you're interested in reading an article about the multiple contributors as to why numbers are dropping like it's hot, check out this interesting piece by the Atlantic.
Now, let's talk about details on the COVID-19 vaccine. This brand new technology and push to get the country vaccinated has many of us excited, lining up without hesitation, practically jumping up and down as we wait while others are more wary, concerned, or hesitant to try this new injectable technology from the get go. Before you jump to any conclusion about how you feel regarding the vaccine I really recommend you do your research!
It's so easy to get swept away in opinions online these days or get your news solely from social media.
I'll give you a straightforward, facts-only, review of what we know about the vaccine so far —and what we don't—in the hopes that this makes your decision clearer. Stay curious my friends and let's do what I love, and talk science.
Short lesson on immunity.
In order to really understand the way the COVID-19 vaccine (and most vaccines work), it is helpful to have a basic understanding of the immune system. I won't teach you the ins and outs of immunology in this quick read but I will give you an easy-to-understand breakdown so this article, the COVID-19 vaccine, and basic immune theory clicks in your brain forevermore—I hope! Once you understand the pieces, the whole picture of the immune system really lights up.
In short: your immune system is essentially your body's built-in ability to recognize itself versus invaders such as viruses or bacterias that don't belong in the body and relay a defense against any foreign body, bug, or cootie that makes its way in to keep you strong and healthy.
Today we're going to talk about viruses specifically since COVID-19 is a virus itself. We'll cruise through initial infection, viral replication, immune response, and where vaccines come into the picture:
The path into the body.
It all begins with an exposure: such as to COVID-19, or the flu, a cold etc. Any invading virus (which is an extremely small particle) fights its way past your nose, mouth, or eyes (A.K.A your mucous membranes which are forms of the immune system themselves) and works its way into your body. This can occur when you forget to wash your hands and pick your nose, someone coughs or sneezes on you, you touch a dirty doorknob and scratch your eye, or whatever that lets viral particles in your body. Maybe you made out with your tinder date during the pandemic, that's another good way to get COVID-19. The possibilities really are endless. Wash your hands, people!
Cellular attack!
Once a virus gets into your body, it finds a healthy cell of your own to essentially hijack, forcing the cell to help the disease replicate, and oftentimes killing this healthy cell or damaging it in the meantime. Once the virus has replicated, it heads out to find more cells to hijack and take over allowing it to grow within the body. Sometimes your immune system comes in and stops this viral replication before it gets out of control and you never even know you had an exposure—other times the virus is too strong and fast and perhaps your immune system isn't kickin' that day and in a short time, many of your healthy cells have been taken over or damaged causing outward signs of infection. This is what's going on when you're "coming down with something." Typically, certain diseases affect certain parts of the body. This is why some bugs are "stomach or GI bugs" and others cause cough, fluid in the lungs, or congestion, such as sinus infections or pneumonia. It all depends on what kind of infection we're talking about. The COVID-19 virus can affect many parts of the body but typically begins within the respiratory system.
Enter your immune system.
As your body is being attacked by a virus, your immune system perks up its ears and says hey, something isn't right here! There is a whole complicated response that happens (and it's sooo cool!) You can read more about this if you want to get nerdy right here my fellow dorks. Essentially, an immune cell called a b-lymphocyte recognizes the disease in your body and secretes something called an antibody. Think about an antibody as a little flag that attaches to viral invaders and invites your immune system to come and attack. Don't forget the word antibody or what it does—it's quite an important tidbit when it comes to vaccines and immune response. When your body creates antibodies it essentially exposes the specific virus in question to your immune system which is a systematic, well-oiled army of killer cells and protective responses waiting to attack. So cool! This is why it's important to take care of your body from day to day, so your immune system army is strong and healthy when and if you ever get sick.
Within this complicated immune response (remember we just skimmed it) much of what causes the outward signs of infection such as tiredness, snot, mucous, fever, etc, is actually your body's immune response to invading disease. Most people have a healthy enough immune system to fight off common viruses and colds… you feel sick for a while, rest, your immune system ramps up, ixnays the virus and eventually you recover. However, some diseases are so strong, scary, and fast-acting, they wreak havoc so great your body isn't strong enough to fight back, eventually causing permanent organ damage or death. An example of this would be the lasting paralysis caused by Polio or some of the long-term side effects we have seen with COVID-19 virus.
Future immunity and antibodies.
The awesome thing about your immune system is that 99% of the time when you get sick, those antibodies we mentioned earlier—the little warning flags— stick around for life. Hence, next time your body encounters that invading bug that made you super sick, your body can recognize it and say nu-huh hunny, get outta here! Those antibodies that were secreted in your initial injury are already waiting to flag any invading cells before they get to replicate and cause harm. Amazing, right?
Why vaccines help.
The idea behind vaccination is that your body is stimulated in a safe way (safer than getting the actual virus) to create these antibodies. By injecting a small piece of a dead or weakened virus within a vaccine into your body, your immune system is tricked into thinking it's been invaded by a real virus (an antigen). This creates an immune response and antibodies thus offering protection immediately and in the future.
If you're curious about the different kinds of vaccines we've used over time and how vaccines work in general read this right here. You may have heard the words mRNA when talking about the technology behind the COVID-19 vaccine. While the vaccine is new, the technology has actually been studied for a long time and is well understood. Pretty cool. Want to read more about mRNA technology and its journey to success? Check it out here. The newest vaccine to be approved by Johnson and Johnson uses another new vaccine technology called viral vector. You can check out more about viral vector vaccines here. I'll also give you a quick breakdown of how these vaccines work in a few paragraphs so keep reading.
What is the COVID-19 Vaccine?
The same but different! The idea behind the three Covid-19 vaccines that have been approved for use in America is broadly similar to how vaccines have worked throughout history; an immune response and eventual antibody creation giving you lasting protection in the future for additional exposures. The delivery of the vaccine through an injection in your muscle (usually in your arm), is also the same as other vaccines you're used to and may have received as a child or in pregnancy. How exactly the immune response is stimulated is the new and exciting new piece.
The COVID-19 new vaccines work by using mRNA or viral vector technology, however as mentioned, though "new" both have been well studied and understood for some time.
The three vaccines at play in the war on COVID-19 in the US currently are the Pfizer BioNTech, Moderna, and Johnson and Johnson vaccines. Each works slightly differently, however, all three cause an immune response after the injection giving you those awesome antibodies for future protection. The idea is that if you're exposed after being vaccinated, your body is prepared to fight a COVID-19 invasion faster and stronger, causing less severe illness or none at all.
Here's a quick look at each vaccine, how effective they are, and some of the timelines associated with each brand:
Pfizer BioNTech Vaccine: MRNA Technology
Injection: 2 total
Time between injections: 21 days between injection 1 and 2
Efficacy (effectiveness): Per the CDC "Based on evidence from clinical trials, the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine was 95% effective at preventing laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 illness in people without evidence of previous infection"
Moderna Vaccine: MRNA Technology
Injections: 2 total
Efficacy (effectiveness): Per the CDC: Based on evidence from clinical trials, the Moderna vaccine was 94.1% effective at preventing laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 illness in people who received two doses who had no evidence of being previously infected.
Johnson & Johnson Vaccine: Viral Vector Technology
Injections: 1 injection only
Efficacy (effectiveness): Per the FDA, "The Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine was 72% effective at preventing all COVID-19 and 86% effective at preventing severe cases of the disease. While there is still a chance a vaccinated person could get sick, this suggests they would be much less likely to need hospitalization or to die from COVID-19."
How does the vaccine work?
What exactly is mRNA technology and Viral Vector Technology? Let's briefly discuss the science between these two groundbreaking vaccines.
mRNA Vaccine
Most vaccines work on a theory I will simply refer to as the "psych, you're not really sick but your body thinks you are" theory. (Simple right?) Vaccines technology essentially tricks your body into thinking it has a disease, but remember, with a good immune system and a non-live virus you can not actually get sick from the vaccine. You might have an immune response that feels like you're sick, but it's one hundo not the same.
Vaccines are meant to sneakily stimulate your immune system… your immune system then, thinking its time to go to work creates antibodies… and hence you have protection from any future exposures.
As we discussed earlier, traditionally that included introducing a very small amount of weakened or dead disease into your body by injection. The difference with mRNA technology is what exactly is being delivered in that injection! Fast working and insanely smart scientists (thank you scientists!) have studied the COVID-19 virus in a lab and genetically engineered a tiny instruction code (called mRNA) for the building of a very small piece of the COVID-19 virus (the s protein). FYI: this genetic "code" is referred to in molecular biology as mRNA (similar to DNA). The code (mRNA) once inside your body via the vaccine, instructs your cells on how to actually build a small piece of the COVID-19 virus (the S protein).
Once your body has built this harmless "piece" of the COVID-19 virus within, your immune system then recognizes a "viral invasion" (remember you're not actually getting sick) and begins to create antibodies to COVID-19. As outlined earlier, once the antibodies are in your body, your immune system has the knowledge to fight off this disease if exposed in the future. This technology is a very safe way to have your body "psyched" into making antibodies. Um wow! That's sick! *ba dum ching* Read that whole thing again slowly and then pat yourself on the back for learning about science today.
Sound freaky? I know hearing about all of this fast working science going on in your body without much control can feel weird. Science has gotchu though—the mRNA from the vaccine is immediately broken down and never enters the nucleus of your cells where DNA is kept. So you can ignore any of the mumbo jumbo floating around on the internet about COVID-19 affecting your DNA.
The vaccine uses DNA technology but in no way affects your inherent DNA. Sweet!
Viral Vector Vaccines:
The new Johnson and Johnson vaccine uses something called viral vector technology. This is also pretty cool new stuff. This technology allows the genetic material from COVID-19 to ride into the body in the vaccine, disguised as another weakened virus. Picture a little COVID-19 virus wearing a mustache and a hat riding on a horse (and if you don't I will). Once the disguised COVID-19 makes it into your cells it rips off its costume (oh wow dramatic!), and tells your body to create a small piece of the COVID-19 s protein (that we discussed earlier) that gains attention from your immune system. Once your body spots COVID-19 you get that sweet sweet antibody response that gives you future protection. This kind of vaccine, while similar to mRNA technology, also has no long-term effects on your DNA. AstraZeneca is another pharmaceutical company working on this same kind of technology and injection. I really like this video explanation of viral vector technology.
Let me start by saying there are a lot of myths and doubts behind the safety of the COVID-19 vaccine that simply are not true.
If you have any doubts about the safety or worries about the vaccine altering your fertility, your DNA, or being too risky for you, I recommend you read this fantastic myth-busting article by The Mayo Clinic to address those fears and kick em out of your brain. Consider forwarding the article to your conspiracy theory-loving uncle too (you all know which family member I'm talking about)! This info needs to get out there.
Next, let's also go through the COVID-10 vaccine development and data that help me, as someone who works in the sciences, really trust the safety of the vaccine:
In general, we know that the COVID-19 vaccine has been largely studied and determined to be safe. Between Pfizer and Moderna, the drug companies studied over 73,000 (!!!) individuals who received the vaccine in the research trials. There are a lot of factors to consider when evaluating how "good" scientific data is however in a well-done study, the larger the population studied, typically the more reliable the results so these large numbers of participants are a great start.
These vaccines went through the same rigorous testing as other vaccines that we use and trust in the United States. While yes the development was fast it doesn't necessarily mean it wasn't done safely. Because of the unprecedented number of deaths, massive impact on the economy, and total bummer of a year due to Covid-19, massive funding and manpower were designated in the creation of this vaccine. Money and smart minds can do a lot, quickly. Check out this article to read about the rigorous testing completed by the companies who developed the vaccine as compared to other vaccines—the process was the same.
This is a familiar technology, mRNA technology is new, but not unknown. They have been studied for more than a decade. (CDC, 2020)
It's impossible to "get covid" from the vaccine. mRNA vaccines do not contain a live virus and do not carry a risk of causing disease in the vaccinated person. (CDC, 2020)
There is no chance the vaccine can change your DNA or fertility, mRNA from the vaccine never enters the nucleus of the cell and does not affect or interact with a person's DNA. (CDC, 2020)
The D-word.
Everyone has probably wondered even fleetingly if the COVID-19 vaccine can kill you—so let's talk about it. It's important to understand that while it sounds scary, death is happening all the time, so of course, some people will pass away during the same time frame that they receive the vaccine by pure coincidence. Since COVID-19 vaccine administration to the general public began, 0.0015% of those who have received the have died. Between December 14th, 2020 and February 21st, 2021, the Vaccine Adverse Effects Reporting Systems (VAERS), has closely studied each and every death, autopsy report, and medical records of anyone who received a vaccine and died within an amount of time that could have been reasonable to attribute this death to the vaccine.
NONE of the deaths were related to the distribution of the vaccine. All providers are required to report deaths to the VAERS line. Additionally, it helps me to remember, the majority of the population being vaccinated right now who aren't health care workers, are individuals who are 75 and older, live in nursing homes or long-term care facilities, and have many medical risk factors completely unrelated to the COVID-19 vaccine. Individuals who are not fully vaccinated may also contract COVID-19 directly before or after the vaccine is received, totally unrelated to the injection.
While all data up to this date has proven the safety and effectiveness of the COVID-19 vaccine, make sure you do your reading and feel comfortable getting the vaccine. The most important thing is that you feel strong, empowered and knowledgeable about anything that has to do with your body.
What are the side effects of the vaccine?
Let me start by saying; side effects are totally normal and expected with the new COVID-19 vaccines. These vaccines are "reactogenic" in nature. When you experience a side effect you know the vaccine is doing its thing. (If you don't have any side effects though rest assured, the vaccine is still doing its thing.)
What side effects we may experience have proven to be different for everyone, with a fair amount of common crossover as well. Most commonly, those who receive the vaccine will have mild side effects such as arm soreness and mild fatigue. In other situations, some people get the vaccine and have no side effects whatsoever, while others have more moderate and uncomfortable side effects. The majority of moderate and rarely severe side effects come after the second vaccine.
Most commonly, individuals are experiencing side effects within seven days of the vaccine, with those effects most likely showing up within a few hours to two days after the vaccine. The side effects are rarely lasting longer than a few days.
Common side effects to look out for include:
Soreness, pain, and swelling in your arm at the vaccination site
Fever, chills, tiredness, or headache
I would describe a common moderate reaction as very similar to feeling like you have the flu. Not fun at all but temporary. You may need to take off work, rest in bed, hydrate well, sleep a lot and take it easy.
Always go to the emergency room if you experience any symptoms that may indicate an impending emergency such as: trouble breathing, persistent pain or pressure in the chest, new confusion or inability to arouse, bluish lips or face, or any other sudden and severe symptom.*
(*not common or expected)
Vaccine preparation & post-vaccine care.
The day before and a few days after you get your vaccine:
Try to get a good night's sleep, stay hydrated with water and electrolytes and avoid excessive alcohol consumption and smoking.
You can apply a cold washcloth to your arm to help with soreness after the vaccine. Also no matter how sore your arm is, movement and exercise to the area will help with muscle stiffness. I recommend a 30-minute arm-focused yoga class—this helped me a ton!
Lastly, contrary to intuition, you should avoid taking pain relievers like Tylenol and Ibuprofen as there is some thought these medications may stop the vaccine from working as well as it is intended to by decreasing your natural inflammatory response. Experts believe anti-inflammatory medications (most painkillers) may decrease antibody production. It may be hard to forgo these meds if you're feeling yucky but hang in there. You want the biggest immune response you can get.
A hot or cool bath with Epsom salts might be a nice counter to aches and pains that you normally would use ibuprofen for.
Who is eligible for the vaccine?
This is a legitimate moving target so take everything past this sentence with a major grain of salt. The guidelines are changing as logistics come into play and each state is doing things differently. States have however been encouraged to follow distribution guidelines from the CDC and NIH but since the response has been directed by states rather than federal government there is a lot of variation.
Here is a loose idea of what's to come:
You can see a table below for the (general) different phases of distribution. Most states are somewhere between Phase 1a and 1c. Phase 1c is not listed on this chart but per the CDC includes:
People aged 65—74 years not living in long-term care facilities.
People aged 16—64 years with underlying medical conditions which increase the risk of serious, life-threatening complications from COVID-19.
Other essential workers, such as people who work in transportation and logistics, food service, housing construction and finance, information technology, communications, energy, law, media, public safety, and public health.
People who have lower risks, do not work in healthcare, are not older adults, and are generally healthy will begin to get their vaccines in Phase 2, 3, and 4.
This graphic is provided in a report by the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine that was commissioned by the CDC and NIH.
Is the Vaccine right for me?
The current recommendations are that as many people as possible receive the vaccine and as fast as possible. The more individuals vaccinated the faster the spread of this violent pandemic will come to an end and we can all return back to the new "normal" we have all so desperately been waiting for. With that being said, some health conditions may risk you out from receiving the vaccine although this is extremely rare.
The best person to tell you if you're a good candidate for the vaccine is your primary care provider. Additionally, you're always the best advocate for your body and what goes in it. Before you jump to any conclusions to get the vaccine or not get the vaccine, look closely at the date, empower yourself with knowledge and review internet sources carefully. If you read something on social media that feels sensationalized, dramatic, or sounds really scary there's a good chance it's not true.
Here's a great article that will help you spot hoax articles about vaccine safety. Best of luck navigating this all my friends, and may your vaccine eligibility date come quickly. As usual, during this wild time, be gentle with your expectations and information processing. A big fat virtual hug to you all.

Will we ever have significant settlements of human beings living off-planet? Not according to this post at Crooked Timber. The author, John Quiggin says bluntly " humans will never go out to explore this universe, or even le ave Earth in significant numbers." He offers lots of arguments including a comparison of the rates of progress in information technology with those in physical engineering. Even so, I'm not convinced, although as a long time reader of Science Fiction I admit that may just be wishful thinking. I'm not alone though and many of the comments, while recognising the need for major advances in various areas in order to make progress, still argue that we will be able to do it. This comment in particular sets out the real progress that has been made in space technology since the days of Apollo and the moon landings. All agree though that in order to achieve anything we need to survive as a species first, which is increasingly not assured as we ransack the planet and despoil its ecology.
All I know is that contrary to what I thought at the time of the landings, I won't be around to see that first footprint on Mars.
According to an interesting book called Deep Simplicity by John Gribbin, the frequency of earthquakes of different sizes follows what is called a 'power law'. In other words for every 1000 quakes of magnitude 5 there are roughly 100 of magnitude 6 , 10 of magnitude 7 etc. While this is of course highly relevant if you live in San Francisco or Kobe, it has much wider implications. This law underpins the mathematics of fractals, so beloved of many computer users. Most importantly however it is scale independent – in other words large earthquakes are less likely than small ones, but do not require some unusual event to trigger them. After a large earthquake event it may be reassuring to think that it will be some time before the next one, but both statistics and the 'power law' say otherwise.
Looking at where the power law applies raises some interesting questions, which strike at the root of many of our cherished beliefs. As an example consider the traffic jam which occurs without any apparent cause on an otherwise free flowing road. Research at the University of Duisburg (p148) found that the number of jams of different sizes also follows a power law – in other words you don't need a large event such as a crash to trigger a jam, it can be something as small as a car getting too close to the one in front and having to brake. Secondly however as the density of traffic increases traffic can be kept moving more smoothly by restricting the top speed, because this reduces the difference between the time to brake and the time to accelerate away again. This is the principle of the variable speed limits on the M25 and being tried elsewhere. So it really is true that if every one obeys the speed limit they get to their destination quicker.
This is interesting for other reasons too - the interaction of vehicles on the road is normally self-managing yet here is an instance where external intervention actually improves things – something likely to give libertarians apoplexy. After all - if libertarians can argue against traffic lights as an infringement of individual liberty, how will they view externally imposed speed limits?
The traffic signal was originally put up to replace the police officer on intersection duty. A police officer has the power to stop people for probable cause. If he stops someone without cause, he is abusing his power of office. Is the unnecessary delay at red lights on speculation that a driver will cause an accident an exercise of governmental power under color of law any less abusive than the action of a police officer who stops you on an unfounded suspicion that you are about to commit a crime? Traffic signal installation should not only be avoided because federal guidelines advise it and because of the damage it causes, but because the courts have ruled that the government, to protect constitutional rights, must show it uses the least restrictive means of furthering its goals. A control device that causes traffic jams is unlikely to qualify as a least restrictive means of achieving the goals the government claims to pursue.
In another example, Benoit Mandelbrot (he of fractal fame) found that the price fluctuations of commodities such as steel or cotton on the NY Stock Exchange also followed a power law. The implication of this is that large events, like for example the Stock Market crash of 1987, can happen as a result of a small trigger and don't require an extraordinary event. More to the point the size of the outcome seems to be independent of the input. At first sight this seems to give support to those who argue against centralised economic planning since a given interest rate change can have wildly different outcomes. I assume this applies whether the rates are set by government or as now by the Monetary Policy Committee of an Independent bank of England.
This does not of course mean that human intervention cannot have an impact, only that it is unpredictable. The most important area here is probably climate change. It appears for example that species extinctions also follow a power law – meteor impacts may have triggered mass extinction for example at the time the K-T boundary was laid down, but equally large (or larger) impacts before and since have not triggered extinctions on the same scale.
If this argument holds up, it has huge implications for international policy. It would be impossible for example to predict with any certainty how effective the actions proposed in the Kyoto treaty might be, but equally we cannot predict with any certainty the impacts of what we are already doing. If ever there was a wicked problem then surely this is one.

In 2023, we will see a major shift in how businesses measure the effectiveness of developers' work. I believe that companies will start analyzing developer activities and outputs, similar to how sales teams are evaluated, and that an element of gamification may come into play as well. With businesses now able to access critical tools that measure employee performance across departments, developer teams will be able to showcase the invaluable work they are doing, and how they are achieving those outcomes. I think this will be a positive shift in the way businesses run their tasks and teams because it will advocate for the most critical facets of the company, like engineering and development.

Software teams that embrace failure in 2023 will come out on top
My biggest piece of advice for other leaders is to create a culture that embraces failures. The richest information about how an organization can be improved comes when things go wrong. For software engineering teams especially, having a blameless culture builds the trust teams need to solve problems quickly and avoids time wasted worrying about the perceptions of others.

Data teams: Put up or shut up
2023 will be put up or shut up time for data teams. Companies have maintained investment in IT despite wide variance in the quality of returns. With widespread confusion in the economy, it is time for data teams to shine by providing actionable insight because executive intuition is less reliable when markets are in flux. The best data teams will grow and become more central in importance. Data teams that do not generate actionable insight will see increased budget pressure.

The adoption of new video and image codecs
Developers must choose wisely when it comes to image formats–the wrong format could allow immersive experiences to sink a site's load time and reliability. JPG is no longer king– major improvements have been made to compress assets more effectively while offering more features that will optimize the web experience. WebP adoption has grown since 2019 and is on track to overtake PNG as the second most frequently used format. JPEG XL is roughly 60% more efficient than JPEG. In March 2022, the JPEG XL specification was published as an ISO standard.

Low code as we know it is dead.
As the nature of low-code apps continues to evolve, the lines between the consumer (what we think of as the user) and the producer (typically the builder) will become increasingly blurred, and the actual "building" of an app will increasingly merge with the "using" of an app. With that, as we enter 2023, we're seeing a more focused phase of low-code apps – one that's template, solution, and outcome driven. In the year ahead, we'll see the next phase of low code become hyper-focused on identifying actual business use cases and giving users the tools to act on them by simply using these apps and without having to build at all. Low-code platforms will have to know, or be able to predict, what the most common use cases are and provide customers with a ready-made solution.

More large-scale analytics and AI workloads will be containerized
In the cloud-native era, Kubernetes has become the de facto standard, with a variety of commercial platforms available on the market. Organizations are increasingly deploying large-scale analytics and AI workloads in containerized environments. While containers provide many benefits, the transition to containers is very complex. As a result, in 2023 the main bottleneck to container adoption will be the shortage of talent with the necessary skill set for tools like Kubernetes.

The rise of social robots
In 2023, social robots will be back. Late in 2022, we saw companies like Sony unveiling robots like Poiq. This set the stage for a new wave of social robots. Powered by natural language generation models like GPT-3, robots can create new dialogue systems. This will improve the robot's interactivity with humans, allowing robots to answer any question. Social robots will also build narratives and rich personalities, making interaction with users more meaningful. GPT-3 also powers Dall-E, an image generator. But, this is not only about the novelty effect. Dall-E will keep pushing research to help robots define their behaviour based on their surroundings. As image detection and context generation merge, robotics scene awareness and social intelligence will take a new leap. By generating a detailed textual description of an image, robots will soon be able to understand the room they are in or what people are doing. This is another step towards real autonomy.

Site Reliability Engineering Increases Need for High Availability for Critical Applications
With large organizations now managing many hundreds of servers and cloud VMs, all requiring increased availability, means that incorporating HA into Site Reliability Engineering principles will become a standard part of DevOps projects. Using SRE, DevOps teams will standardize on HA tools that are capable of decreasing complexity, increase availability and reliability, and automate application aware failovers. The vendors who have products that support multiple OS versions, clouds, applications, and databases will be baked into vendor best practices.

Hyperscale Will Become Mainstream
Data-intensive businesses are moving beyond big data into the realm of hyperscale data, which is exponentially greater. And that requires a reevaluation of data infrastructure. In 2023, data warehouse vendors will develop new ways to build and expand systems and services.
It's not just the overall volume of data that technologists must plan for, but also the burgeoning data sets and workloads to be processed. Some leading-edge IT organizations are now working with data sets that comprise billions and trillions of records. In 2023, we could even see data sets of a quadrillion rows in data-intensive industries such as adtech, telecommunications, and geospatial.
Amit Erental, Sr. Manager, Business Lines Strategy, Cloudinary
Accessible content will become priority number one
As consumer behaviors shift to rely more on visually-rich media, brands need to be confident they are making all of their media, images and video, no matter the platform, accessible. As evidenced in Cloudinary's 2022 State of Visual Media report, in 2023 we'll see more progression and focus by brands to make content accessible to all. This will include built-in accessibility for video enabling people of various auditory, movement, sight, and cognitive abilities to understand, enjoy and absorb content as well as a rise in subtitles, sign language, and lighting/brightness alternatives throughout websites and apps to help visual impairment challenges. The increase in web accessibility will ensure brands reach and value a wide variety of consumers.
Rukmini Reddy, SVP of Engineering, Platform, Slack
DevOps teams will need to get creative
As we head into 2023, which is increasingly likely to be defined by the effects of an economic downturn, DevOps teams will need to get creative and do more with less. There will be a focus on maximizing the ROI of professional developers, who are some of the most expensive assets for businesses. It will be imperative to ensure the developer experience is as seamless as possible, minimizing the amount of time spent switching between multiple, disparate – and sometimes inefficient – tools. With focus shifting to developer productivity, I expect tightening purse strings to act as a catalyst for teams to adopt more efficient practices when it comes to developing and shipping code. We'll see more reliance on tools like software development kits and pre-baked code that can be reused and repurposed to slash cycle times and deliver secure, impactful code as quickly as possible.

Headless commerce becomes the go-to
After years of gaining traction among early adopters, in the coming years, headless will truly become the norm. According to a Salesforce Commerce Cloud survey, 80% of all online merchants are either already – or plan to be – headless over the next two years. Headless commerce offers a competitive advantage to those who embrace it. Specifically, merchants who are headless see increases in conversion rates, average order values, engineering productivity, and website change velocity. When one competitor in a vertical goes headless, a technology adoption race occurs as others scramble to upgrade and keep pace.
Headless implementation in isolation will be deemed foolish so in 2023, top merchants will look at headless within the context of their broader company vision and technology strategy.

Test automation has struggled to capture a user interface element – a button, an input field, or a cell in a complicated table – and find it again later even when things change. It's why UI test automation is often referred to as 'fragile.' 2023 will get closer to training ML to predict what to use as reference points and how to build recipes to find any type of UI elements, based on content and structure.

An emergence of low-code CX
The past few years have highlighted the need for enterprises to pivot to meet the ever-shifting landscape of customer needs efficiently. Next year, we'll see an increase in user-friendly, low-code processes and systems to create a seamless customer experience across a myriad of touchpoints and systems. Vendors will embrace Industry-standard APIs to allow enterprises to integrate their CX ecosystem connecting internal and external systems painlessly.

Education technology can help students beyond remote learning.
Historically, some teachers viewed technology as disruptive in the classroom. During the pandemic, technology was needed to keep classes in session. As it turns out, the need to deploy technology that supports distance learning has had an impact that will change the classroom forever. Many technology-resisting teachers now realize that technology doesn't disrupt the classroom. If deployed effectively, it enhances both teaching and learning. Giving students tablets that are enrolled in a learning solution enables active and personalized learning without needing to wait for 1:1 time with a teacher. Governments in many countries across the world are now supporting the rollout of technology in schools to create education equity and help teachers scale.

New data sovereignty laws will spur businesses to make data more visible and interoperable
We expect to see businesses take a more proactive role in creating their own data governance policies amid the current wave of regulatory action. The current global patchwork of data sovereignty and privacy laws has made it more complicated than ever for businesses to create consistent policies on data sharing, integration and compliance. This will continue to have a significant impact on organizations' ability to maximize the use of data across their IT infrastructure, unless they put together clear plans for data integration and governance. In 2023, the passing of more data sovereignty and sharing laws will spur businesses to invest in getting visibility into their data and creating clear plans for sharing and integration across their IT landscape.
Zohar Bronfman, co-founder and CEO of Pecan AI
Customer retention will be the primary focus for business leaders in 2023
They will double down on their efforts to engage their customer base more deeply. Whether they're seeking to increase retention, grow their share of wallet, or win back customers, leaders know that these customers are their greatest asset, especially during challenging economic times. And, importantly, they already have all the customer data they need to help understand and predict what they're likely to do, fueling their ability to personalize offers and outreach. That knowledge of future customer behavior will drive successful retention strategies next year.
Esko Hannula, Sr. VP of Product Management at Copado
DevOps backlash
After years of DevOps fever, criticism towards DevOps is going to grow, for two different reasons. First, many businesses fail to reap the benefits because they have just implemented tools without changing their working practices. Second, many corporations have, and will continue to, reduce IT operations personnel assuming that Ops would somehow happen by itself in DevOps. Nevertheless, DevOps will continue to deliver success and gain popularity among those that implement it right and, despite temporary hiccups, the crowd of successful DevOps adopters keeps growing.

Continued investments in DEX
The conversation around remote work will remain relevant heading into 2023, and as a result, we'll see more organizations prioritize efforts to drive an optimal end-user experience. Maintaining in-office collaboration and productivity within a distributed workforce requires a frictionless digital employee experience (DEX). As such, we'll see continued investment in DEX strategies as leaders reevaluate how to approach hybrid work as it becomes an everyday reality for their organizations.

Right before Thanksgiving,my friend Chrissy asked me to make cupcakes for her daughter Liza's birthday. Chrissy said Liza liked zebras, mustaches, Paris, Yogerette chocolate bars, and hates fruit and her favorite colors are black, white and blue. I can handle all of that!
Luckily I had just enough black and white zebra cupcake liners on hand from Sweets & Treats Boutique to make these cupcakes and used them as a starting place for the theme. Chrissy also showed me a photo of a cake with alternating white and black baked in the cake to make the zebra pattern so I knew I definitely had to incorporate that into the mix.
But how could I incorporate mustaches into the cupcake? Oh, right… toppers! At first I thought I may be able to commission another friend of mine who works with fondant to make 3D toppers for me. But when we couldn't find a mold, I decided that paper toppers would be just as cute and super simple to make.
These Mustache Cupcake Toppers take just a few minutes to make and add a cuteness factor to the cupcakes that is undeniable!
For the cupcakes, I used this vanilla cake recipe and a basic almond flavored cream cheese frosting. To create the zebra effect in the cupcakes, I used this technique.
Print the DIY Mustache Topper Template.
Using the glue stick, glue the template directly onto the black card stock or construction paper. This will help give the topper stability.
Carefully cut out each mustache.
Using the liquid glue, place a small dollop onto the printed side of each mustache and set the end pick/stick into the glue. Make sure the stick does not poke over the top. Let the glue dry completely before inserting into the cupcake.
I "mustache" you how you got so creative?!?! I love the mix of black and white and the cute little toppers!
I like the idea of putting a mustache as a design! Very creative and nice to see:).

The Sophia Sweetland House is a historic house at 458 Palisado Avenue in Windsor, Connecticut.  Built about 1845, it is a good local example of transitional Greek Revival-Italianate architecture executed in brick.  It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.

Description and history
The Sophia Sweetland House stands in northern Windsor, on the east side of Palisado Avenue (Connecticut Route 159) a short way north of its junction with Bissell Ferry Road.  It is a -story brick structure, with a front-facing gabled roof.  The main facade is three bays wide, with the entrance in the right bay, framed by sidelight and transom windows.  It is sheltered by a porch with slender columns and brackets that form arched openings, and has a low-pitch roof with extended eaves supported by decoratively cut brackets.  Windows are generally set in rectangular openings, with brownstone sills and lintels.  The exception is the front gable window, which is set in a round-arch opening.  Two-story sections project from either side, with a corbelled cornice running below the roof line.

The house was built about 1845 by Isaac Sweetland, a farmer who lived here with his wife Sophia.  The house's Greek Revival features include the roof gable orientation and window treatments, while the Italianate is represented in the entrance porch and gable window.

The Early History of the RSS: A Reading List
What were the inflection points in the early history of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS)?
Former President Pranab Mukherjee's decision to attend an RSS event in Nagpur has been widely debated. Many saw the visit as granting the RSS legitimacy, and helping it to mainstream itself. [Read EPW's editorial on the topic here]
We compiled a reading list to trace RSS' genesis and trajectory over the years, and its subtle crafting of its own narrative.
1) In this article written in 1972, the first of a four-part historical narrative of the origins and growth of the RSS, the author deals with the disenchantment of many Congressmen with Gandhi's Non-Co-operation Movement and with efforts at Hindu-Muslim togetherness. One of these disaffected Congressmen, Hedgewar, whose early years are recounted in detail, goes on —inspired by Savarkar — to found the RSS in 1925.
The emphasis in the early years of the RSS is on initiating unity, discipline and culture-consciousness among Hindus. By the late 1930s the RSS is an organised and trained group with its own para-military organisation. This attracts the attention of the Government of India which begins to keep a close watch on it In order to prepare for the post-War period and the expected Hindu-Muslim troubles, the RSS decides at the beginning of the Second World War not to antagonise the Government in any way. Part of the strategy is to avoid scrupulously any political activity or any help to the Hindu Mahasabha. This decision proves to be controversial within the ranks of the RSS. The general approach of Golwalkar, Hedgewar's successor, is extreme caution in order to avoid the wrath of the British. The RSS does not take part in the 'Quit India' movement in 1942.
2) The second section deals mainly with the relationship between the RSS and the Hindu Mahasabha. Upto 1937 the Hindu Mahasabha was a loosely organised group collected around prominent individuals. The two major issues dividing the reformers (in the Hindu Mahasabha), led by Lajpat Rai and Sharaddhanand, from the Sanatanists (the orthodox ones), led by Parmanand, Munje and Kelkar, were the elimination of caste restrictions and political participation.
In 1937 Savarkar was elected President of the Mahasabha and settled these differences by resolving to build it into a political organisation representing the Hindus. By turning the Hindu Mahasabha into a political organisation, Savarkar ensured that whatever support the RSS had rendered to the Mahasabha would cease. Many RSS members were active in the Congress. And the RSS did not want to be associated with a group which would have placed it in direct opposition to the Congress. During World War II, the Mahasabha sought to enroll Hindus in the army and to negotiate with the British to get itself represented on various government councils. This policy was to fail The British at the Simla Conference in June, 1945 treated the Congress as the representative of caste Hindus and the Muslim League as the representative of the Muslims. The weakness of the Hindu Mahasabha was the more apparent because — unlike the RSS — it lacked any youth, peasant or para-military foundations. It tried to make up for this lack by appealing to the RSS, but in vain. It could not become a mass organisation because so many of its supporters were big landlords who were unwilling to allow any hint of mass mobilisation. Meanwhile, the RSS — due to its unstinted help to Hindu refugees during and after partition — had increased its influence throughout northern India.
3) Part three covers Gandhi's assassination and the subsequent banning of the RSS. Following Gandhi's assassination Golwalkar was arrested and the RSS was banned. Throughout the period of the ban (and after as well), the government assumed that the RSS was a political body. However, the government's assessment of the RSS's political nature was wrong, at least at that time. The government often considered the RSS to be the volunteer arm of the Hindu Mahasabha.
But what connections the RSS had with the HM were extremely tenuous and these connections had virtually ceased in 1940. Upto the time of the ban, many swayamsevaks were members of the Congress. Hedgewar had refused to allow the RSS, as an organisation, to champion the cause of any political party. Until the ban on the RSS in 1948, Golwalkar gave the same advice. Members might participate in politics, but not as representatives of the RSS. The pracharaks (the full-time cadres) were, and still are, explicitly forbidden from being members of any political party. The ban shocked the swayamsevaks. Many felt that the RSS had to transform itself into a political party if the movement were to survive. Sardar Patel, then Home Minister, himself feared that it might do this. He sought to prevent this and to bring the RSS cadres into the Congress. For a time, it looked as if he might succeed. In October 1948 the Congress Working Committee ruled that RSS members were permitted to join the Congress. The Working Congress decision immediately set off a controversy within the Congress, with the supporters of Patel favouring the decision and the followers of Nehru opposing it. Eventually, Nehru persuaded the Congress Working Committee to deny membership to RSS men by stipulating that they could join, but only if they gave up their RSS membership. These developments prepared the ground for those elements in the RSS who proposed more direct political involvement receiving a hearing within the Sangh that would not have been possible earlier.
4) The fourth, and concluding, instalment of this study of the RSS examines the genesis of the Jan Sangh and the role played by the RSS in its formation. There is much evidence which suggests that the RSS leaders expected to influence politics in a Congress Party dominated by Vallabhbhai Patel. When the Congress Working Committee passed its resolution preventing RSS members from joining the Congress in late 1949 and when Patel acquiesced in this, the RSS did begin to look for some alternative way to influence politics.
Those elements in the RSS who proposed more direct political involvement received a hearing within the organisation that would not have been possible before 1948. This was the backdrop to the formation of the Jan Sangh and the RSS's role in it. To extend the RSS's influence, a large number of other institutions were formed to spread the RSS ideology among various types of groups (i e, students, labour, teachers, etc). Rather than 'infiltrate' existing institutions, the RSS helped form separate groups. Because RSS members were excluded from many interest groups and political parties in the post-independence period, this option was, in a sense, forced on the RSS.
5) A more recent article looks at how the Emergency rendered the Jan Sangh and RSS respectable, paving the way for it to enter the mainstream of Indian politics. With the taint of the Gandhi assassination, the RSS was truly a political pariah. But after the Emergency, acquiring political power came within reach. This paper states that the importance of the Emergency in the growth of the RSS needs to be emphasised because it helps to periodise Hindutva's active involvement in national politics, rather than seeing such involvement as a bolt from the blue.

Well, the van was set up on my truck. Uploaded products and went selling. Well, oven heats very well. Delivered everything in most fresh kind. Now this van is already the second year in my use and I have no problems at all.
I don't know what will be in the future, but now we are completely satisfied with this van. Products stay good in any weather. Also it has very useful things - locks on the doors. We purchased exactly this equipment. If we would expand we will buy one more van.
Isothermal van is simply irreplaceable for transporting products that require compliance with specific temperature conditions, such as food, pharmaceuticals, flowers.
First of all, isothermal van is a very tough and strong construction that protects the contents from external influences. Outer coverage - clad galvanized steel. Outside it is covered with plastic, which helps to protect van against corrosion and thus extends the life of the van.
The inner surface is absolutely safe. It is made of food grade galvanized steel and it does not contain toxic substances. As insulating material is used interconnected foam panel, which thickness can be from 50 to 100 mm. Van protects the cargo from the temperature and atmospheric humidity drops.
The design of special equipment provides the ability to use locks to prevent entering into the van. All locks are made of galvanized steel.


Bhubaneswar: Aiming to make the upcoming Durga puja hassle free, Commissionerate police will deploy 79 platoons of security forces in twin city of Cuttack and Bhubaneswar.
The Durga puja celebrations will be held amidst tight security. While 54 platoons of police force will be deployed in Cuttack, 25 platoons will be in place in Bhubaneswar during the festival, said Twin City police commissioner YB Khurania after a preparatory meeting.
Elaborate arrangements will be made to control the vehicular traffic in Cuttack and Bhubaneswar. The police personnel will be deployed to maintain law and order situation during Durga puja and idol immersion.
Besides, two platoons of CRPF will also be in place to keep vigil on anti social activities during the celebrations.
While Durga puja will be conducted on 172 pandals in the state capital this year, 168 pandals are being ready in silver city Cuttack for worshipping goddess Durga.
Extra vigilance will be kept near puja pandals, where goddess Durga's idol will be decorated in gold and silver ornaments, to avoid theft.
Commissionerate police decided to deploy two platoons of SOGs in Cuttack and one platoon in Bhubaneswar as the precautionary measure if the terrorists storm the twin city during puja.
Besides, striking forces, ODRAF and Quick Action Team will keep vigil in two cities. The police forces will be deployed in civil dress in the suspected locations. The temporary outpost will also be opened in different locations in the city during the puja.
The Commissionerate police asked all the puja committees of Cuttack and Bhubaneswar to install CCTV cameras on the pandals. The volunteers will be deployed to control the vehicular traffic near the pandals.
Not a single heavy vehicle will be allowed to enter the twin city from Sept 26 till Oct 1 during Durga puja. The heavy vehicles will ply on the NH flyovers. The tourist buses from Puri to Bhubaneswar will reach Baramunda bus stand via Lingipur, Samantarapur, Rajmahal, Sishu Bhawan, Ganganagar and Fire Station. Action will be taken as per law in violation of the rules.
Earlier, Odisha DGP RP Sharma had said that the criminals will be detained under the National Security Act (NSA) to prevent unpleasant situation during the puja.
