RDS tips and tricks
I didn't know Postgres could do that!
Performant time-series data management analytics
The Silicon Valley schedule is expected to be published this week and we are looking forward to seeing you all in October!
PostgresConf is organized by an all volunteer team of fantastic individuals and is backed by a 501c3 non-profit. The Silicon Valley conference provides the most cost effective avenue to learn all about Postgres and the Postgres ecosystem. We invite everyone to enjoy our expertly delivered presentations, good food, the hallway track and the opportunity to learn, network and appreciate everything that is Postgres.
Postgres Silicon Valley: Patch review workshop summary
On August 15th, Silicon Valley Postgres held their first Postgresql.org Patch Review workshop. The workshop was hosted by PostgresConf partner Pivotal. Attendees' feedback indicate that we have found a great way to show how companies within the community can benefit Postgresql.org, Postgres User groups, and help us fulfill our mission:
There were 20 attendees, including Melanie Plageman of Pivotal presenting/coordinating "Postgres Patch Review," and Postgresql.org -Hacker Jeff Davis as hands on help. This was the first workshop of its kind for Silicon Valley Postgres and with the feedback received, we are planning to plan similar events at least twice a year to provide an opportunity that is currently not available elsewhere. (Sneak peek: there may be one at PostgresConf Silicon Valley on October 15th and 16th, which is right around the corner!)
Eight patches were reviewed, with three including specific feedback to the patch authors:
Bhushan Uparkar on Index Skip Scan
Mathias Brossard on psql command to show size of partition table
Kaiting Chen on fixing quadratic performance of regexp match/split functions
We're excited to be a part of this path of Postgres contributor building. Hopefully it will be a model for other meetups and community partners to follow in continuing to contribute to the Most Advanced Open Source Database ecosystem.
Silicon Valley Postgres is the fastest growing Postgres user group within North America. It was initiated just 12 months ago and will reach 700 members likely before Monday. The group exists to help all facets of Postgres users and the Postgres ecosystem, including, but not limited to, PostgreSQL, Greenplum, Aurora Postgres, AgensGraph, Yugabyte, ZomboDB, TimescaleDB.
Silicon Valley Postgres is also working with PostgresConf Silicon Valley to bring a high quality and cost effective education solution to the users of Postgres within the Silicon Valley. Early Bird tickets are now on sale and available. You will want to hurry as the Early Bird price ends on September 1st, 2018.

PostgresConf US 2018, Financial Review
The following table contains a summary profit and loss statement for PostgresConf US 2018.
In review of these numbers two things will probably jump out at you:
Venue and F&B of 238,000.12
Net Revenue of 202,201.62
Yes, we spent almost 250,000.00 dollars on the venue and food and beverage. In fact, the Food and Beverage alone was over 135,000.00 dollars.
We were fortunate to have very strong ticket sales as well as partner support through Sponsorships. This support will allow us to not only meet our financial requirements for PostgresConf Silicon Valley 2018 but will help us make our financial requirements for our European, Chinese, and US conferences in 2019. We are also hoping to set aside more money for our popular diversity and professional development initiatives.
The Chairs would like to thank all our organizers, volunteers, partners and attendees for helping us continue advocacy of People, Postgres, Data!
PostgresConf US 2018: A Review of the largest PostgresConf ever and a recap of the last 12 months!
The PostgresConf team wanted to provide some information on the performance of PostgresConf US 2018 and events over the past year, as well as potentially answer some pending questions. Ultimately our goals are about people, which is why our motto is, "People, Postgres, Data." With each event we hold, each talk we accept, and how we train our volunteers, we make sure people (the benefit for and to), postgres, and data are considered and included. If there is no benefit or consideration to the growth of people, it is not an option.
With that in mind, please read on to see how our focus on people, Postgres, and data had an impact on the community over the last year.
Since PostgresConf US 2017 we have had events in:
Ohio (in combination with Ohio Linux Fest)
Jersey City (PostgresConf US 2018)
All of these events are non-profit and volunteer organized.
PostgresConf US 2018
Days: 5, 2 for training, 3 for Breakout sessions and summits
Official Attendance #: 601
Content: Over 207 sessions submitted
Sessions: Over 108 sessions provided
Partner Support (Sponsors): 28
We had a record level of support from partners this year and due to this support we are going to be forced to find a new venue for next year. Our Jersey city location no longer has the capacity to hold us. This will increase costs but initial indications are that our partners understand this and are willing to support us financially to help continue the success of our efforts and keep costs reasonable for attendees.
This year we were able to work with Women Who Code NYC. They provided many volunteers and we provided them with the ability to experience some of the best Postgres based content available, at no charge. We expect great things from this budding relationship in the future.
We held a Career and Talent Fair. A dozen companies were present to connect with potential employees.
We also held a surprisingly well attended speed mentoring session for potential employees (Especially helpful for many of the WWC) on resumes and interview practices.
This year saw the continued elevation of our primary leadership: Viral Shah, Lloyd Albin, Amanda Nystrom, and Debra Cerda. They continued to increase their presence and responsibility within the conference and dedicated hundreds of hours voluntarily to the growth of people. Our international members have also increased their leadership roles with our on-the-ground teams in South Africa and China.
We had our standard Regulated Industry Summit but also a Greenplum Summit. As I am sure you are aware Greenplum is an Open Source, Postgres based MPP database. They were by far the most popular booth in the entire conference and their summit was very well attended. The relationship with Pivotal and the success of the Greenplum Summit allowed us to learn new ways to bring together the entire Postgres Ecosystem. We expect to run a minimum of 3 more summits at PostgresConf US 2019.
We were able to have several excellent (and long) meetings with leaders of Pivotal, Microsoft, Google, and Amazon on how they can begin contributing more back to Postgresql.org. All of them expressed a deep drive to contribute and a desire to learn more about the core community. Of particular note is Google, who would like to contribute the following back to the community:
https://github.com/google/pg_page_verification
We discussed with them the process and various changes they would need to make (license and code style, etc.). We also educated them on the PostgreSQL.Org rigorous review process.
Microsoft is reviewing how they can contribute but they showed an interest in build farm nodes, professional technical writers to help with docs, and potentially code contribution to our Windows port.
The Chinese Open Source Promotion Union launched the Chinese Postgres Association. We invited them to PostgresConf US and introduced them to the United States Community. We expect great things from the Chinese community in the future.
As we continue to build up our on-the-ground teams, we will likely hold less events in the U.S. this year. We will instead be focused on a smaller number of events in the U.S. and adding events in China and Europe. We have had an amazing amount of support from the Chinese community and the current goal is 1000 attendees for that conference.
Our current plan of events for the U.S. are
San Jose (October 2018)
PostgresConf US (Manhattan)
Future International Events
Spring of 2019.
This may change as we are actively recruiting on-the-ground teams to help us grow the community.
Our goal is collaboration and growth with other PostgreSQL community and Ecosystem efforts. We want to allow each potential community member to find a home. A place that they feel positive about contributing to the community as a whole. As we continue to grow as a community, it is vital to recognize that each member has their own needs, desires, and return on investment requirement (professional or personal) that they are seeking.

PostgresConf US 2018 Speaker Spotlight: Ghulam Abbas Butt
As part of the countdown to PostgresConf US 2018, learn more about the engaging content and our speakers for this year in our Speaker Spotlight Series.
Abbas Butt is a Software Architect at EnterpriseDB, and he will present a half-day training "Deep dive into PostgreSQL Authentication Methods" on Monday, April 16, at 1 pm. Learn more about Abbas and his involvement in the Postgres community:
Why PostgreSQL?
My company's business revolves around PostgreSQL.
Tell us about your involvement with the greater Postgres community.
I have been involved with PostgreSQL for about 10 years. Over the years I have contributed by reporting bugs and developing various FDWs. I have also worked to make PostgreSQL an XA complaint database by using a modified version of pgBouncer. My next plans are to come up with small programming exercises with solutions to accompany this book http://www.interdb.jp/pg/ ("The Internals of PostgreSQL for database administrators and system developers" by Hironobu Suzuki). This will give the readers hands on experience.
What new features of PostgreSQL 10 are you most excited about?
Declarative table partitioning & query parallelism
What features should be developed/improved and released in the next major upgrade?
Write Scalability and High Availability
Why should attendees come to your talk at PostgresConf US 2018? What would you like for them to take away from your session?
Attendees should come to have great time learning about PostgreSQL authentication methods. After attending the session the attendees will be better placed to decide which authentication scheme should they use and why.
What sessions are you most excited about attending at PostgresConf US 2018?
"Aurora PostgreSQL Tutorial and Extended Deep Dive" and "Know your meme: Develop a webapp using Google Cloud Kubernetes and Cloud SQL"
What is your favorite aspect of PostgresConf US?
Being able to listen and exchange point of views with other community members.
What advice would you have for a Computer Science graduate or entry level developer who are interested in learning and engaging with Postgres?

PostgresConf US 2018 Featured Diamond Sponsor: Pivotal
As part of the countdown to PostgresConf US 2018, learn more about our Diamond and Platinum sponsors for this year in our Sponsor Spotlight Series.
Heikki Linnakangas is the Senior Principal Software Engineer at Pivotal, one of our Diamond Sponsors for PostgresConf US 2018 and host of the Greenplum Summit. Read what Heikki has to say about Pivotal, Greenplum and Postgres:
As a PostgreSQL committer, how does that influence your work with Greenplum?
We have worked hard on merging more recent PostgreSQL versions into Greenplum in the last couple of years, and reached PostgreSQL 8.4 recently. PostgreSQL 8.4 was first released back in 2008, which is the same year I became a committer in the PostgreSQL project. It was a real blast from the past, to see those first commits of my own flow into the Greenplum repository!
It's a healthy reminder that whatever shortcuts you might be tempted to take, they will come back to haunt you! Fortunately, my fellow PostgreSQL committers are hawk-eyed, and the PostgreSQL commit history is very clean and pleasant to work with.
Do you foresee more collaboration between PostgreSQL and Greenplum in the future?
Yes! As we continue to catch up Greenplum with more recent PostgreSQL versions, the friction of collaboration gets smaller and smaller. In the last couple of years, PostgreSQL has gotten a lot of the basic infrastructure that Greenplum relies on for data distribution, like partitioning and parallelism. That reduces the manpower needed in Greenplum to maintain those features as addons, and frees up developers to work on other things.
As we plan for new Greenplum features, we always try to design them in a way that works well with PostgreSQL, and if applicable, develop them in the PostgreSQL community first. That benefits the PostgreSQL community, by having the features, and it benefits Greenplum, by getting more eyes on the code earlier, which improves code quality.
Are there things that you feel that PostgreSQL can learn from Greenplum? What about Greenplum from PostgreSQL?
PostgreSQL can learn a lot from the features that are in Greenplum, but not yet in PostgreSQL. Usually, the code is not directly applicable, and Greenplum might have made different tradeoffs than the PostgreSQL community wants. But it is nevertheless very useful to look at existing implementations for inspiration, and to learn from the mistakes.
Pivotal has a well-established process for making minor Greenplum releases, emergency bug fixes and such. But between Greenplum 4, and Greenplum 5, the first open source version of Greenplum, there was a long gap. With Greenplum 5, we had to re-learn how to make a major release. PostgreSQL, on the other hand, has maintained a very stable and predictable release process for over 15 years, with roughly annual major version releases, and a 5 year support period for each major version. We are trying to get to a similar stable, predictable, schedule with Greenplum as well.
What challenges have you faced as you continue to push Greenplum toward code parity with PostgreSQL?
At first, we spent a lot of time on just cleaning up the Greenplum codebase. Throughout the PostgreSQL 8.3 merge, which was the first major version upgrade we went through, we ironed out tons of trivial differences between the PostgreSQL and Greenplum code that had crept up over the years. Small changes in whitespace, comments, variable names, and such. Most were well-intended, and made sense on their own, but they hindered the merge.
We're mostly done with that kind of cleanup, and we now have an established process for merging a major PostgreSQL version. But each version has its own challenges. With the PostgreSQL 8.4 merge, for example, PostgreSQL got window functions, and we had to reconcile the existing Greenplum implementation, with the implementation we were getting from PostgreSQL.
With the on-going PostgreSQL 9.1 merge, we will get Foreign Data Wrappers into Greenplum. We will have to decide what it means to have a foreign table in an MPP context. Do you run the foreign table only in the master node? That's straightforward, but you will get no MPP benefits. Or do you have each data segment fetch their own slice of the foreign data? That requires extending Foreign Data Wrapper API, and we need to do that in a way that's compatible with the whole ecosystem of existing PostgreSQL data wrappers.
Mason Sharp, from Maputo Data, is actually giving a presentation on how Postgres-XL and Postgres-XC are distributing Foreign Data Wrappers. I'll be there! This is a great opportunity to work together on a common API, so that the same FDW extension will work consistently with PostgreSQL, as well as all the forks like Postgres-XL and Greenplum.
Are there any specific goals you would like to highlight for collaboration with both communities over the next year?
Developers from EnterpriseDB announced plans to work on a new heap format called "zheap", for PostgreSQL v12. It would address many of the problems with "vacuuming" large tables. Vacuuming is cumbersome, when you scale up to hundreds of terabytes of data or more. Greenplum has largely solved that problem with a custom storage format called Append-Optimized Tables. But we would prefer to not maintain a custom storage format, we'd rather focus on making Greenplum better on MPP things, like parallelizing queries across a cluster. So we will be looking closely at the development of zheap, and want to help.
I'm looking forward to hear stories from Greenplum customers, how they use the product, what problems they have. I don't speak enough to users! It's easy to lose sight of what day-to-day problems DBAs and application developers face.
I'm also excited about the career fair on Friday. I'm hoping to meet many new colleagues and future PostgreSQL developers there!
It's my first time, so we'll see! :-) I go to many PostgreSQL developer-oriented conferences, to meet developer colleagues, and talk about upcoming features and engineering issues. In this conference, I'm hoping to hear more from DBAs and users.
If you want to hear more war stories on Greenplum or PostgreSQL development, or have a weird PostgreSQL issue you want to show, or just want to say "hi!", come speak to me! You'll find me loitering around the halls.

PostgresConf US 2018 Featured Platinum Sponsor: 2ndQuadrant
As part of the countdown to PostgresConf US 2018, learn more about about featured Platinum Sponsor 2ndQuadrant, including their commitment to partnering with and contributing to the Postgres community, from Simon Riggs, Chief Technology Officer, of 2ndQuadrant and PostgreSQL Major Developer/Committer:
Tell us about your commitment to the PostgreSQL Community.
The 2ndQuadrant vision is to be the bridge between the database needs of enterprise users and open source contributions to PostgreSQL. We have pursued a joint strategy of providing both working code (available now) and later submitting the features into core PostgreSQL. Over the past 15+ years, our team has widely contributed to the growth and development of the PostgreSQL project; partnering with customers to identify bottlenecks and then contribute towards enterprise features that address them in PostgreSQL, benefiting everyone that uses it. Besides contributing code, all members of the 2ndQuadrant team are very active in the community on an individual and local level, often helping to organize PUG events, conferences, and meetups.
Are there any rising stars in the community you'd like to give props to?
Marco Nenciarini - located in Prato, Italy - has been a long time supporter and contributor of PostgreSQL. He is an active maintainer of PGDG's APT repository, maintaining builds and binaries for PostgreSQL and associated tools & extensions, while contributing towards process improvement for sane builds. Marco is the lead developer for Barman, a backup manager and disaster recovery tool for enterprises with high business continuity requirements. He is the current president of IT.PUG in Italy and a part of the organizing committee for PGDay.IT.
What features would you like to see in v11 and v12?
As PostgreSQL matures, so do the features that come with each release. In the next two release we're most looking forward to improved Partitioning performance, the implementation of the MERGE SQL command, and procedures that allow server-side transactions.
Are there any features in development from 2ndQuadrant that the community should be looking forward to?
2ndQuadrant is working hard on the development of Bi-Directional Replication (BDR3), containing new architectural features and a wide and deep set of features.
In addition, we continuously work on features for scalability, performance, security and robustness.
What is the number one barrier you see to contributing to the Postgres community?
The Postgres community is one of the easiest communities to become a part of. With an open mindset all around and a common goal of growing open source PostgreSQL, the community is very accepting to anyone looking to learn, contribute, and better the Postgres ecosystem as a whole. Between the helpful tools on postgresql.org and the growing community, comprised of seasoned veterans and fresh faces, there is always helpful information to guide you.
What is the best thing about working with the Postgres community?
PostgreSQL is the most popular database when it comes to new adoption. Even existing users of other databases are flocking towards PostgreSQL - and it's not just to save money. PostgreSQL has been growing year on year and we're attracting interest from the largest enterprises, as it is fully capable of securely supporting enterprise database systems.
There is still competition out there, especially with the current fad of developer-focused NoSQL databases. But the community is big enough and strong enough to quickly adapt to changing times and push forwards. The members of the PostgreSQL community are passionate about their work and the growth of the project.
Tell us why you believe people should attend PostgresConf 2018 in April.
Community conferences expand your knowledge in different areas of the technology, describe practical use cases as well as give sneak previews into cutting edge technologies for future versions of PostgreSQL.
Simon along with Tom Kincaid, General Manager of 2ndQuadrant, presents "Internet of Things with PostgreSQL - Performance & Security" on Friday, April 20, at 8:50 am. Tom also presents "Postgres -- Past, Present and Future" and will discuss the challenges that may be faced by Postgres in the next 5 years on Thursday, April 19, at 3:20 pm.
Visit the 2ndQuadrant team in the Exhibit Hall in the Newport Grand Ballroom on Wednesday, April 18, and Thursday, April 19.

The Professional Hockey Players' Association (PHPA) officially launched its 50th Anniversary on June 17th, 2017 in Orlando, Florida during the Association's Annual Meeting of Player Representatives. The celebrations will continue throughout the 2017-18 season with various events and initiatives planned.
Following a week long series of meetings with Player Representatives from each American Hockey League and ECHL team, the Association's 50th Anniversary was launched in front of over 150 players and special guests during the closing banquet festivities at the Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek.
The PHPA unveiled a 50th Anniversary video which included interviews and testimonials from prominent members of the hockey community including Gary Bettman, Don Fehr, Lou Lamoriello, Brian Burke, Dave Andrews, and others, who spoke about what the PHPA has meant to the sport of hockey over the past 50 years.
The PHPA also honored Brad Treliving, General Manager of the Calgary Flames, with the 2017 Curt Leichner Distinguished Member Award, which is presented annually to a member of the hockey community who has made significant contributions towards the advancement of professional minor league hockey. During his playing career, a group of ECHL players lead by Treliving approached the PHPA to initiate the representation process for ECHL players to become Members of the PHPA. Treliving was then invited to speak at the PHPA Annual Meeting of Player Representatives, where American Hockey League and International Hockey League Player Representatives unanimously approved the effort to unionize ECHL players.
The Association also recognized five (5) former players who were instrumental to the success of the PHPA during their playing careers to serve as Era Representatives, each representing the decade in which they played. Era Representatives included: Glenn Patrick (1967 – 1977), Claude Noel (1977 – 1987), Paul Jerrard (1987 – 1997), Dane Jackson (1997 – 2007), Peter Vandermeer (2007 – 2017) who addressed the Player Representatives, recounting their experiences and involvement with the PHPA during their tenure.
The banquet included keynote addresses from PHPA Legal Counsel Bob Riley, as well as Arlo Goodwin, an original Player Representative with the Portland Buckaroos who later became the Insurance Agent for the PHPA, a position he held for over 25 years.
PHPA Executive Director, Larry Landon, closed out his remarks by unveiling a custom designed PHPA Harley Davison motorcycle built by Quinn Camp from Quinn's Custom Motorcycles, who rode the bike into the banquet room and later received a standing ovation. The PHPA Harley will re raffled at the conclusion of the 2017-18 season with all proceeds supporting a number of charitable organizations.
The evening was capped off by an unforgettable performance from world renowned hypnotist Danny Zzzz!
Other events planned throughout the PHPA's 50th Anniversary celebrations include a gala event in Niagara Falls, Ontario, a 6-page feature section within The Hockey News, a weekly "50 Moments" social media campaign to highlight significant moments and milestone achievements over the Association's 50 year history, a 50th Anniversary micro site, as well as a golf tournament scheduled for August, 2018 to serve as an annual legacy event.
The PHPA will begin utilizing a 50th Anniversary logo, developed by M Style Marketing. The logo includes key foundational words 'Strength – Unity – Prosperity' that form a solid foundation from which the Association has proudly stood. The player mark from the current PHPA Primary logo is encompassed within the '0' to symbolize the players who have not only been represented and protected by the PHPA over the past 50 years, but who have helped build the Association over that same time.
"The PHPA would not be where it is today without the sacrifice, fortitude, and dedication from the players, which is why it is crucial we recognize what they have meant for this Association," said PHPA Executive Director Larry Landon. "We are proud of the fact we are the only union representing minor league players within a major league sport, and that 90% of current NHL players were represented by the PHPA before advancing to the NHL. Our 50th Anniversary will be a special celebration as we look to honor the past while embracing the future."

We make staying healthy affordable and convenient.
The overall health and well-being of our patients is our number 1 priority and is the reason why we go to great lengths to make routine chiropractic care convenient and affordable for all. The licensed chiropractors Simply Health will perform a full exam and xrays in order to educate each patient on what living well with a healthy spine means for them. Recommendations will vary from person to person, but Simply Health offers pricing that is both affordable and convenient. Once you experience the restorative benefits of a manual chiropractic adjustment, we're confident you'll wonder how you ever lived without us.
Through a natural and drug-free approach.
It has been said that a body in motion stays in motion and a body at rest stays at rest. Whether at rest or in motion, your lifestyle choices impact the health and function of your joints. Chiropractic provides a safe, natural and drug-free option to locate, correct and prevent joint dysfunctions, thereby playing a vital role in keeping your body balanced, flexible and functioning at its best. How does chiropractic support an active lifestyle? Whether you are a crossfit rockstar, rec league warrior, runner, golfer or yogi, your spinal column is made up of 24 independent vertebrae that enable your body to move, twist and bend during activities. It also helps protect the delicate central nervous system that controls and coordinates every muscle, tissue and organ of the body. Subluxations of the spine, commonly known as joint dysfunctions, can negatively effect proper nerve communication from the brain to the body–often resulting in pain and discomfort.
Neck Pain / "Text Neck"
Elite athletes of past and present, like Michael Jordan, Jerry Rice, Tom Brady and Jordan Spieth, choose chiropractic to give them a competitive edge. Experts estimate that 90%1 of all world-class athletes use chiropractic care to prevent injuries and improve their performance.
▸ Learn how chiropractic can help those who sit or stand all day.
Sitting or standing for an extended period of time can cause stress to your lower extremities and spine. This stress may cause back pain and discomfort from restricted joints otherwise known as subluxations or joint dysfunctions. These joint dysfunctions can cause improper joint motion and decreased nerve flow to the organs, tissues and cells of the body. A healthy spine is essential to limit and help prevent discomfort and pain. How does chiropractic work?
In a recent Consumer Reports study, chiropractic outperformed prescription medication, deep-tissue massage, yoga, pilates, and over-the-counter medication therapies, in treating back pain. Consumer Reports Health Ratings Center. Back-Pain Treatments. ConsumerReports.org; July 2011.
The path to good health begins with a natural, drug-free approach.
A healthy spine is essential to any developing child. Chiropractic provides a safe and natural approach to pain relief and prevention that can have immediate and long-term benefits.
Whether your child is just learning to walk or they are deciding what college to attend, their spinal column is made up of 24 independent vertebrae that enable them to twist, bend and move throughout the day. It also protects the delicate central nervous system that controls the body's ability to grow, repair and function at its best by communicating with every cell, tissue and organ of the body. Subluxations of the spine, commonly known as joint dysfunctions, occur when two or more vertebrae become restricted and impede the body's ability to communicate with itself. Joint dysfunctions in a child can be caused by everyday activities throughout their development cycle. Falls while learning to walk, championship wrestling with dad, lugging an oversized backpack around and staring down at their phones are all great examples of activities that put the body in situations that can negatively affect the spine and proper nerve communication throughout the body. Chiropractors are trained to locate and correct joint dysfunctions by applying a gentle, targeted movement to the body's spinal column and extremities, where and when needed. This non-invasive technique is commonly known as a chiropractic adjustment.
Parents look to chiropractic to help establish a natural, drug-free foundation that can have immediate and long-term bene ts to their child's health.
Subluxations of the spine, commonly know as joint dysfunctions, occur when two or more vertebrae become restricted and impede the body's ability to communicate with itself. Joint dysfunctions during pregnancy can be caused by the changes taking place in your body as it prepares to support you and your new bundle of joy. Changes such as weight gain in the abdomen, poor posture and rotation of the pelvis force the body to unnaturally adapt to additional stress placed on the spine. These changes negatively affect joint function and nerve communication throughout the body.

▸ Are all patients given the same type care?
Just because pain and discomfort begin to subside doesn't mean you should stop receiving care. Muscle and other soft tissue damage may still be present even though the symptoms of pain are gone. Recovery care works to support the body's ability to heal itself by maintaining proper communication throughout the entire body. During recovery, your doctor may recommend visiting one to two times per week as well as performing strengthening exercises at home.
You've heard the phrase "no pain, no gain," right? Well, chiropractic is a little different. Even when you are not experiencing pain or discomfort, you can gain from routine care. While routine chiropractic can help improve health and well-being; it can also serve as an early detection system for new problems. Once you've found relief and have fully recovered, your doctor will typically recommend maintenance visits along with a balanced diet and exercise regimen.
▸ Can chiropractic improve my athletic performance?
There is a reason why elite athletes, like Michael Phelps, Tom Brady and Rory Mcilroy, are under regular chiropractic care.
Studies have even shown, objectively and subjectively, that chiropractic patients experience "overall increased bodily function,", which enhances your ability to think, move and perform.
▸ Does Chiropractic Care Hurt and is it Safe?
Chiropractic is the largest, non-invasive, drugless and safest forms of health care available. Statistically, patient risk is substantially lower when receiving chiropractic care as opposed to medical care, where the use of prescription drugs and surgery pose a greater risk. Chiropractic adjustment is a highly controlled procedure that rarely causes discomfort because minimal force and gentle pressure are used. In fact, most patients feel relief immediately following treatment.
▸ Will I be sore following a chiropractic adjustment?
Any reported soreness after an initial adjustment has been described as similar to that associated with starting a new exercise program. Drinking plenty of water, using an ice pack, and engaging in light stretching after your first visit can help ease any discomfort to promote healing.
▸ Can proper shoes or orthotics (shoe inserts) help me avoid low back pain while working out?
Yes. The shoes you wear during physical activity will be a major determining factor in the stabilization the spine and joints of your body. Although there is not a "one-size" fits all recommendation on the type of shoe you should be wearing, you do want to make sure that support is optimal.
▸ If I go to a chiropractor, will I have to keep going back for the rest of my life?
The answer to this question depends on your presenting condition and overall goals. Some patients may choose only to seek relief when pain or symptoms occur whereas others desire a more preventative approach to their health. Just as regular visits to the dentist are necessary for good dental hygiene, routine visits to a Doctor of Chiropractic for proper spinal function and health maintenance are also important.
▸ If I am under chiropractic care, will I still need to take my pain medication?
Only the health care provider that placed you on the medication can legally and safely alter the dosage. Many patients under regular chiropractic care have reported a positive change in their symptoms and less medication (prescriptions) and over-the-counter (OTC) drug use.
▸ I "pop" my own neck so why would I need to go to a chiropractor?
You should not try to forcefully manipulate your spine. Chiropractors are highly trained to adjust the spine in a very specific manner, location and direction. As a result, it is virtually impossible to adjust oneself correctly and accurately.
▸ What is a joint dysfunction/subluxation in chiropractic terminology?
The terms joint dysfunction, subluxation or spinal misalignment are often used interchangeably. Regardless of the term used when a joint in the spine or extremities is restricted, it creates a lack of motion that, in turn, creates a dysfunction of the joint itself. This joint dysfunction can adversely affect the nervous system and your ability to perform normal daily activities.
▸ Can proper shoes or orthotics (shoe inserts) help my back and neck pain?
Yes. The shoes you wear and the type of foundation you stand on daily will be a major determining factor in the stabilization of the spine and joints of your body.
The answer to this question depends on your presenting condition and overall goals. Some patients may choose only to seek relief when pain or symptoms occur whereas others desire a more proactive/preventative approach to their health. Just as regular visits to the dentist are necessary for good dental hygiene, routine visits to a Doctor of Chiropractic for proper spinal function and health maintenance are also important.
Only the health care provider that placed you on the medication can legally and safely alter the dosage. Many patients under regular chiropractic care have reported a positive change in their symptoms and resulting medications under the professional advisement of the prescribing physician.
▸ What age can a patient safely receive a chiropractic adjustment?
▸ Are all children given the same type care?
Just because pain and discomfort begin to subside doesn't mean your child should stop receiving care. Muscle and other soft tissue damage may still be present even though the symptoms of pain are gone. Recovery care works to support the body's ability to heal itself by maintaining proper communication throughout the entire body. During recovery, the doctor may recommend visiting one to two times per week as well as performing strengthening exercises at home.

While routine chiropractic can help improve health and well-being; it can also serve as an early detection system for new problems. Once your child has found relief and have fully recovered, the doctor will typically recommend maintenance visits along with a balanced diet and exercise regimen.
▸ Will chiropractic care hurt my child?
Chiropractic adjustment is a highly controlled procedure that rarely causes discomfort because minimal force and gentle pressure are used. In fact, most patients feel relief immediately following treatment.
▸ Will my child be sore following a chiropractic adjustment?
Any reported soreness after an initial adjustment has been described as similar to that associated with starting a new exercise program. Drinking plenty of water, using an ice pack, and engaging in light stretching after their first visit can help ease any discomfort and promote healing.
▸ How often will my child have to go to a chiropractor?
The frequency in which your child receive chiropractic care is strictly up to the professional opinion of a Doctor of Chiropractic and will vary from individual to individual.
▸ How do I explain the "popping" noise of an adjustment to my child?
The popping sounds they will hear are their joints releasing tiny pockets of gases. A chiropractic adjustment does not affect the bones of either side of the joint, but rather the connective tissue that holds the joint together.
▸ Why should I go to the chiropractor if I am pregnant?
Most pregnant women are referred for lower back or pelvic pain associated with pregnancy. This includes localized lower back pain, sciatica (radiating leg pain), groin pain, and leg or thigh pain. Some patients present with middle back pain, rib pain, neck pain or headaches. Chiropractors can also help determine if the fetus is not in the optimal position for birth, such as breech, transverse, or posterior.
▸ Is Chiropractic treatment safe during pregnancy?
Yes! Gentle chiropractic treatment including joint mobilization, soft tissue treatment, and therapeutic exercise is safe and effective during pregnancy. Doctors of chiropractic are trained to address the challenges of the pregnant body including loosening ligaments and increased weight.
▸ How often will I need treatment during my pregnancy?
A treatment plan will be individually tailored for your specific condition and depends on your week of pregnancy. Treatment recommendations range from 2-3 times per week to once a month.
▸ What else can I do at home between my office visits to help my pain?
In addition to drinking plenty of water and eating a healthy diet, home care recommendations usually include ice, physioball exercises, and gentle stretching. A maternity belt support may be recommended as well. Exercises are tailored specifically for each patient.
▸ Can chiropractic treatment really reduce my time in labor?
A research study showed that patients under chiropractic care during pregnancy had decreased labor times by 24-39%!
▸ Is my treatment over after my baby is born?
Prior to returning to routine personal care, at least one postpartum evaluation is recommended before the ligaments around the pelvis tighten. Usually this occurs about the same time as your postpartum visit to your birth provider at 2-4 weeks.

Q: Making sure whether the test of goodness of fit was done correctly. The Elves Toy Co.  manufactures toy trains. For quality control  purpose it checks 5 random trains from production line . The probability that a train is defective and is thrown away=$0.25$. The number of trains thrown away vs the number of weeks in which that amount of trains were thrown is given in the picture.. Propose an appropriate probability distribution and check for its correctness. Sorry I dont know how to make table :(. $$\text {Attempt} $$. This distribution  has to be discrete as number of discarded trains have to integers. Now I think this has to be binomial as poisson is for large number of data set. Thus I got $ E_{i }$ for  each number of trains as $12,21,14,5,1,0$ . I  then clube last three columns as $\text E_{i} $ has to $\geq 5$. Then $\chi $ came out to be $0.5$ . Now $\chi_{0.05}$ for $3$ df is $7.8$ as this is greater than calculated one thus our test holds good and the distribution is binomial. I am still not able to convince myself thoroughly that its true. Am I correct or am I missing something? Thanks!

A: Of course, the 'observed counts' $10, 21, 14, \dots$ for 'categories'
$0, 1, 2, \dots$ are integers. But it is incorrect to round 'expected counts'
to integers; perhaps they can be rounded to a couple of decimal places.
My four expected counts for categories $0, 1, 2, 3^+$ are
$12.34, 20.57, 13.71,  5.38, $ respectively. And my chi-squared statistic is $ 0.945 < 7.815,$
so I do not reject the null hypothesis that the number of defective trains
 out of 5 inspected each week is distributed as $\mathsf{Binom}(5, .25).$
Data are "consistent with" this binomial model. However, the same
data might also be consistent with other similar models. (So one
should not declare that $\mathsf{Binom}(5, .25)$ is the correct
model.)

I started working with Tracey in the summer of 2013 after a doctor recommended Pilates to her. She had a herniated lumbar disc which she was rehabbing with physical therapy. When the disc improved enough so that she could increase exercise beyond walking, Pilates became her 'exercise of choice' to prevent future back injuries.
When Tracey first came to the studio, her range of motion was limited. We started with the basics, working mindfully, learning how to engage the core muscles to protect the back. As Tracey's range of motion improved, she quickly progressed to more intermediate exercises. With regular practice, Tracey has been able to strengthen core muscles (abdominals and gluteals) which she says has, helped alleviate and prevent her lower back pain. With this increased stability, Tracey is able to take on more challenging exercises within the Pilates structure and she does so with an increased confidence.
Tracey says, "Pilates has helped me in a variety of ways. The most important change was the decrease in lower back pain. The additional benefits...increased flexibility, feeling stronger and an improved understanding of how to properly use various muscle groups when exercising. For example, any stretch where I am in forward flexion has dramatically improved (as a result of) what I have learned and practiced with Pilates."
As her instructor, it is so rewarding to see how Tracey has progressed. Pilates can be a transformative journey to a pain-free lifestyle for anyone committed to improving their quality of life.


Starting this week, Catholic schools across the country will celebrate their unique identity and mission during Catholic Schools Week. The purpose, according to the National Catholic Educational Association (NCEA), is to "focus on the value Catholic education provides to young people and its contributions to our Church, our communities, and our nation." Statistics, however, are showing that many families are choosing to send their kids to public schools instead of their local Catholic schools.
NCEA's report "United States Catholic Elementary and Secondary Schools 2014-2015: The Annual Statistical Report on Schools, Enrollment, and Staffing" shows that since 2005, elementary school enrollment has declined by 30 percent in the 12 urban dioceses and 20.4 percent in the rest of the United States. In light of those numbers, here are some challenges facing our Catholic schools.
21st Century: Importance in Church Life, Challenges, and Opportunities," by the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate (CARA).
Again, the NCEA report recognizes this with the statistic that of the 150,709 teachers in Catholic schools, only 2.8 percent are religious or clergy (sisters: 1.9 percent; brothers: 0.4 percent; clergy: 0.5 percent). And while that statistic does not reflect on the quality of education provided, having that presence certainly serves as a reminder of the school's foundation.
Presence also can refer to Catholic schools in general. In 2014-2015, 27 new schools opened across the country, while 88 consolidated or closed.
There are things that need to be addressed and discussed in regard to the future of Catholic education. There are an equal number of statistics and reports, however, that show Catholic schools are making a difference as far as developing engaged and active members of our Church.
In light of that benefit to the entire Church, the celebration of Catholic Schools Week is one well worth having.

In a time when the distinction between personal and professional realms is fading, it seems everyone has a Facebook or Twitter profile now, and a social media policy is a way to set some ground rules for your employees. It provides a standard for how they will post content that could ultimately reflect on your organization.
First, take a look at the types of applications you have, like blogs, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and other social networks, as you are devising an internal policy. Look into establishing best practices for each, and suggestions for posting, since each is slightly different.
-- A disclaimer. In all social channels, state that the opinions expressed are not representative of the organization as a whole.
-- Proprietary information. Don't allow disclosure of sensitive information like financial details or private information about co-workers or clients/patrons, for example.
-- Copyrights. Make sure your employees understand copyright and fair use laws regarding republishing protected content and sources. While employees should be responsible, the company should also have a DMCA policy in place to ensure that any take-down requests are handled properly.
-- Respecting colleagues. Privacy of your coworkers is typically outlined in an employee handbook. Posting photos, video clips, or information about them without permission should be highlighted in a social media policy.
-- Avoid being argumentative. Responses to someone's opinion should be handled in a non-controversial professional tone.
-- Check your accuracy. Ensuring that your posts are accurate and factual is paramount.
-- Use good judgment – what you put out there is out there forever. The image of your library is archived permanently once online. There are very few social websites that can completely eliminate your post from online searches.
TIP: It's a good idea to assign just one administrator to manage all of your library's social media posts, including the moderation of comments.
Practicing what I preach: The opinions expressed in this blog do not necessarily represent those of ProQuest. And please consult with your own marketing professionals and legal advisors when creating your organization's social media policy.

Opinion: utmp's Christmas Wish List
Posted byTom Johnson 20th November 2021 20th November 2021 Posted inOpinion, ProgressTags:Progress, Simon Sadler
International breaks give you the chance to sit back and consider where we're at as a football club. What a joy it is to study the Championship league table and see us sat nicely in the top half, above PNE and with a nice cushion between ourselves and the relegation zone. We're only a point off the play-offs so can even afford to get slightly carried away and excited if we like.
But if there's one thing we know about Simon Sadler and the Blackpool board, we know they'll be planning far beyond the upcoming January transfer window and have plenty of items still on the wishlist that Sadler's been working down since he took over in 2019. The recent news that Neil Critchley has signed a deal until 2026 is one hell of a statement to make, so what next?
In this blog we've devised a 'Christmas wish list' to look forwards into the new year and just how far our club can go in the coming weeks, months and years.
Preparing for the winter window
Blackpool's transfer strategy is no doubt well-prepared and planned over the long-term so will have taken shape alongside the summer recruitment, while targets will have been nailed down over the season so far to allow for us to have the best chance to sign these players when the window opens. There's of course no guarantee we will get our first choices and we'll move down that list until we get who we need.
Ellis Simms will surely be a target – he recently signed a new deal with Everton and is back fit so looks primed for a loan out again and we should be towards the top of the queue here. Midfield is another area where we lack options – Ryan Wintle has been exceptional but has a recall clause in his loan contract from Cardiff and they've recently appointed Steve Morison as their permanent manager, so we're in real danger of losing him unfortunately. Kevin Stewart has struggled for fitness, while Matty Virtue is still a few weeks away from fitness and Grant Ward is likely to be out for a little longer. That leaves just Kenny Dougall who we can rely on, so we'll surely need at least one addition here.
Otherwise, the squad is looking in decent shape and it will come down to making decisions on the likes of loanees Dujon Sterling and Tyreece John-Jules, as well as whether Owen Dale's signing is made permanent. We should have a stronger squad at the end of January than we have at the end of December.
Policing outside Bloomfield Road
One of the more immediate priorities, Blackpool Gazette recently revealed that the policing on a match day is being looked into "as a matter of urgency" – both from the police but also with Ben Mansford and the club. Hopefully we see an improvement in the very next home game against West Brom as surely it's in everyone's best interest that we don't see too many scenes on Bloomfield Road that are becoming far too frequent. If you've not been to a home game recently, I recommend this blog from Mitch Cook's Left Foot on the issues. Hopefully this should be ironed out and sorted well before Christmas. It needs to because we are a club looking to progress on and off the field.
Decisions also need to be made by the club on players who are out of contract at the end of the season. The most notable are Daníel Grétarsson and Grant Ward – the Ice Man is out of favour at the moment, so the jury is out on this one and it may be that Blackpool want another player in that position instead and may look to do that in January. In terms of Grant Ward, it will all depend on whether he can fight back to fitness. Matty Virtue's deal was extended recently and Ward is in a similar position as he fights back to fitness, so hopefully he's another we look to tie down for the next few years after he was one of the stars of last season.
Decisions will also need to be made on Richard Keogh, Marvin Ekpiteta, Gary Madine, Josh Bowler and Demetri Mitchell who each have 12-month extension clauses in their deals for the summer – based on the fact Sullay Kaikai was released last year, it would be premature to suggest that each of these are absolutely nailed on and each will be playing for an extension on their existing deals between now and the end of the season. Each have impressed so far this season and shown they can succeed at this level though, so it's more likely that they'll be signed for longer and some may even get longer deals.
Joe Nuttall, Teddy Howe, Stuart Moore, Oliver Sarkic and Cameron Antwi are all out of contract at the end of the year and will need to work hard if they're to earn new deals in the second half of the season.
Training ground
We've all been talking about this one for years so naturally there's a growing excitement given something is imminent. Ben Mansford promised us an update this side of Christmas and recently Matt Scrafton explained in the Gazette that the legal process was the only thing preventing an announcement. Rumours on AVFTT suggest that a site has been identified on Garstang Road West in Poulton, near to the PlayFootball site. Hopefully something is confirmed sooner than later, as this has been the biggest bug bear for fans for the last few decades. When it's announced, the excitement will last for as long as it takes to build it!
East Stand
This one feels like the final piece in the puzzle. What on earth will us fans have to moan about if we get a new training ground and complete the stadium, and are competing in the Championship? Naturally we'll all want more as it's human instinct, but what an exciting future we have at the moment.
So what exactly do we know about the East Stand so far? Ben Mansford told the Gazette last month that it "will be part of potentially a wider group of discussions about the surrounding area and I would hope that at some point next year we can give the fans a bit more information." So nothing is imminent but it's likely to coincide with the Revitalising Revoe plans unveiled by the council last year. It's also likely to be linked to the pitch drainage issues which were prevalent last season where significant investigation is required below the surface. Sadly it may be a while yet before these plans progress, but being in the Championship allows for Simon Sadler to give it some great consideration. Our job is to continue to improve the atmospheres at games which has been brilliant this season and increase the attendances further to ensure it's a requirement in the medium-term for the club to invest here.
The final job I'd like to see the club press on with is building a professional women's side. This is something we originally raised in our podcast which you can listen to here:
Clearly this is one that will split the fanbase slightly as everyone's priority is naturally the men's team and making progress here. However, as we look towards the future, it should be considered that this is a massive area of potential growth in my view. Women's football is growing and we're miles behind many clubs – including Fleetwood and AFC Fylde. As we look to grow our club for the new generations, we should be pushing the boundaries on this one and bringing the women's team in line with the men's team to provide a best-in-class offering across the Fylde coast. I hope it's on Sadler's list to provide additional funding and attention where possible. The women's football team needs to be considered at the forefront of the new training ground plans, alongside the Community Trust, which is the first step required. This also allows for additional funding too, so is a bit of a no-brainer.
As highlighted in our podcast, there is a lot of work done by volunteers currently after years of underfunding and the hope is that this will be recognised by the club and additional awareness is given to this. It would be great to one day see our club at the forefront of driving social change like this where we're challenging the norm of the past where women's football is an afterthought and investment here is one way that we can appeal to a greater audience around the North West. It would be great to start seeing increased coverage of the women's game and highlights appearing across social media and Tangerine TV.
Not asking for much this Christmas, are we? Just a multi-million pound training ground and stadium expansion as well as a stronger squad and keeping hold of one of the country's best young coaches. There's a real reason to be excited about our club at the moment and hopefully this upward trajectory continues – both on and off the field. The hard work has been done in getting us back to the Championship, so these 'secondary issues' for Simon Sadler can now take primary focus.
Do you have anything else you'd add to the list? Let us know in the comments.

This tutorial adds a new connection that can be either an initial connection or an additional connection. An instance of MySQL server must be installed, started, and accessible to MySQL Workbench before you begin.
Launch MySQL Workbench to open the home screen. Existing connections are shown when you click the MySQL Connections view from the sidebar. No connections exist for first-time users.
From the MySQL Workbench home screen shown in the previous figure, click the [+] icon near the MySQL Connections label to open the Setup New Connection wizard.
Define the Connection Name value, such as MyFirstConnection as the next figure shows.
The default connection values are for a typical local setup, so check them and enter the appropriate values. If you are unsure, click the Test Connection button to check the connection parameters. Do not press OK.
Read the Configure Local Management introduction (shown in the next figure), and press Next to begin defining the new connection parameters.
The connection will now be tested. You should see that the connection was successful. If not, click Back and check that you have entered the information correctly. The following figure shows a database connection that tested successfully.
Toggle the Show Logs to view additional details about the tested connection, then click Next.
Optionally, you may configure a method for remote management if a Remote Host was specified. Setting these options enables MySQL Workbench to determine the location of configuration files, and the correct start and stop commands to use for the connection.
SSH login based management and Native Windows remote management types are available. The Operating System and MySQL Installation Type are configured for the SSH login variant.
This step creates a local MySQL connection, so you can skip the Management and OS and SSH Configuration options, which are used for configuring a remote MySQL connection.
On Microsoft Windows, select the appropriate MySQL service for the MySQL connection, as shown in the figure that follows.
The wizard will now check its ability to access the start and stop commands and then check access to the MySQL Server configuration file as the next figure shows.
You now have a chance to review the configuration settings. The information displayed varies slightly depending on platform, connection method, and installation type.
At the Review Settings prompt, choose I'd like to review the settings again to review the settings as shown in the next figure. Choosing Continue closes the Configure Server Management dialog.
Check the Change Parameters if you want to check or edit information about the MySQL configuration file. For this example, select the check box and click Next to continue.
Review the MySQL configuration file information shown in the next figure. Click Check Path and Check Name to perform the described checks, or optionally change the configuration file path.
Optionally, enter your own commands for starting, stopping, and checking the MySQL connection. To apply the default values, leave these optional values blank as the following figure shows.
Click Finish to close the Configure Server Management dialog, which returns to the original Setup New Connection step.
After reviewing the Setup New Connection information (see the figure that follows), click Test Connection again to make sure it still functions and then click OK to create the new MySQL connection.
Your new MyFirstConnection MySQL connection is now listed on the home screen.
From the home screen, click the new MySQL connection to open the SQL editor for this connection. The SQL editor is the default page. Click Server Status from the Navigator area of the sidebar to display the current status of the connected MySQL server instance (see the figure that follows).
Test the other Navigator area options that relate to your new MySQL connection. Check its status, MySQL logs, and measure its performance statistics from the Dashboard.
Notice the Administration and Schemas tabs in the Navigator area. The Schemas view displays the schemas that are associated with your new MySQL connection. Alternatively, you can merge the content of the tabs by either clicking merge ( ) or by enabling the Show Management Tools and Schema Tree in a single tab SQL editor preference.
For additional information about MySQL connections, see Chapter 5, Connections in MySQL Workbench.
