Cadillac Rolls Out Limited Edition CTS-V Wagon
Cadillac CTS-V Wagon
The CTS-V Wagon is Cadillac's limited-production V model of the very successful CTS wagon. The heart that powers this car is a 6.2 liter, supercharged V8 that is capable of outputting an impressive 556 hp and a massive torque of 551 lb-ft. It is a rear wheel car that is equipped as standard with a 6-speed gearbox or with an optional 6-speed automatic transmission.
In comparison to the standard CTS model, the V is 0.59 inch (15 mm) lower and looks very aggressive thanks to the chiseled lines that give it a very distinguished appearance. Being a "V" model, it comes with a lot of goodies, including Brembo brakes, a magnetic ride control, and 19-inch aluminum rims covered by Michelin Pilot Sports tires. For those of you (not many we are sure) interested in the cargo room available, you will have 58 cubic feet, plenty enough in our opinion.
As standard, the car is offered with a Bose stereo system, navigation and heated seats (Recaro seats are optional at $3,400). People at AutoWeek took it for a spin and have nothing but nice things to say about it. They liked the raw power of the car and the very good materials used for the inside. Handling is top-notch and the magnetic ride control is not just a gimmick, it really does the job very good.
For those of you interested in this model you should know that it will be available in a very limited edition at a starting price of $62, 990. The car has a top speed of over 190 mph and 0-60 mph is done in exactly 4 seconds which is remarkable for a vehicle that weighs 4,390 lb.

2011 Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen won't use 2011 Jetta sedan platform
A few weeks ago, the 2011 Volkswagen Jetta sedan was revealed, boasting an upgraded design, increased size, an all-new platform and the promise to take on other mid-size models on the tough US market.
Now, as a blow to those who want a bit more practicality, Volkswagen has revealed that the 2011 Jetta SportWagen version won't use the new platform. Instead, it will continue to sport the Golf mk V underpinnings, meaning it will keep its exterior dimensions largely the same.
Volkswagen admitted that it will make some interior changes, as well as bring in a few styling cues from the 2011 Jetta sedan. Except that though, don't expect any other changes in terms of engines or other such things.
The Jetta SportWagen will continue to be made in Germany, while the 2011 Jetta sedan will be brought in from VW's Mexico plant.

2011 Volvo V60 revealed, the Sports Wagon version of the S60
After Volvo revealed the impressive 2011 S60 sedan, it was only a matter of time before the Swedish company presented the wagon version of that same model.
Now, the 2011 Volvo V60 Sports Wagon has been formally revealed, complete with an impressive video.
In terms of equipment, you won't find any big changes, as it really is just the wagon version of the S60 sedan. Still, Volvo did try to implement a more aggressive design, with a sloped rear end, aiming to really highlight the sporty nature of its sports wagon.
There are changes from a technical standpoint though, as two chassis versions will be offered, Touring and Dynamic. The main differences reside with the suspension system, which is much more responsive in the Dynamic flavor. Still, both versions will provide an adequate amount of comfort, even on low quality roads.
As usual for Volvo, a huge amount of safety systems are offered, including the Pedestrian Detection one, which premiered on the S60 sedan. Hopefully, all of the systems will work in real life conditions. All-wheel drive is offered as standard for the top-of-the-range version, while you can order it as an option for other ones.
In terms of engines, Volvo is throwing everything it has on the V60, with three diesels and no less than five gasoline units. The diesel range offers the 115 HP 1.6-liter DRIVe, the 163 HP 2.0-liter D3 and the 205 HP 2.4-liter D5. Gasoline fans will be able to choose from the 150 HP 1.5-liter T3, 180 HP 1.5-liter T4, 203 HP 2.0-liter 2.0T, 240 HP 2.5-liter T5, 304 HP 3.0-liter T6.
No word yet on US availability, seeing as how Volvo might operate some changes to the American lineup. Still, Europeans will be able to enjoy the sleek new 2011 Volvo V60 Sports Wagon starting this fall.
Until then, check out the photo gallery below and then hit the jump for an interesting presentation video.

Volkswagen CC Wagon version rumored
The Volkswagen CC (or Passat CC, as Europeans know it), is proving to be a pretty big sales hit for the German company. Through its combination of more upmarket accessories and a price without the added premium of brand recognition, like Audi or BMW, the CC is definitely a surprise hit.
That's why Volkswagen executives are rumored to be considering a wagon version of the CC, in order to exploit a whole other niche.
Currently, it seems that the next generation Volkswagen Passat won't be sold in the US. As such, VW leaders are considering a wagon versions of the CC, in order to fill the void left by the Passat's departure.
While we're not really holding our breath for this rumor, a utility-inclined five-door "coupe" does sound pretty tempting. What do you think? Would a wagon CC make any sense for the US market? Share your thoughts below.

Subaru reveals STI-tuned Legacy 2.5GT tS in sedan and wagon form
Subaru isn't just about the Impreza and its numerous performance editions, as it has just revealed the newest creation of its STI tuning division, the Legacy 2.5GT tS.
In case you're wondering, tS stands for 'Tuned by STI', which means that both the sedan and the wagon variants of the Legacy received a wide array of sporty and handling upgrades. Sadly, the 2.5-liter turbocharged Boxer engine hasn't received any tweaks, keeping the power level at 265 HP and 258 lb-ft of torque.
Still, we're pretty sure people will enjoy things like the enhanced aerodynamics, thanks to a restyled front bumper and a subtle rear spoiler. A set of 18-inch wheels were added, wrapped in performance tires. For the inside, customers will get a mix of leather and alcantara, complete with contrast stitching. STI branding is also par for the course.
The real improvements were made to the handling of the Legacy 2.5GT, as it received Bilstein suspension and new strut tower bars. Add in the upgraded sports exhaust system and you've got yourself a perfect ride for any self-respecting family person.
Sadly, the Subaru Legacy 2.5GT tS is exclusive to Japan, as only 600 models will be made. Still, you can bet STI is developing some upgrades for international Legacy models as well.

2011 Buick Regal might get wagon and hatchback variants plus diesel engine
The 2011 Buick Regal is quickly becoming the turning point for the Tri-Shield brand and a bold experiment for General Motors.
It seems that the badge-engineered Opel Insignia will share a lot of things with its European cousin. We've seen the turbocharged 2.0-liter engine and the six-speed manual confirmed for the upcoming Regal, but some even bigger news have now been revealed by Car and Driver.
According to the magazine, the Regal will also receive the two other body styles of the Insignia, a slightly shorter five door hatchback form and a full pledged wagon version. While both are rumored to join the sedan at one point in time, we don't know how much customers are going to have to wait.
Besides the new body forms, a special treat is prepared to US diesel fans, as such a unit will make its way onto the Regal in the future. No figures were given, but it will certainly boost the green credentials, alongside the flex-fuel capable gasoline engines.
Factor in the performance oriented Regal GS, and the new Buick model is set to really blow away the competition. What do you think? Share your thoughts below.

Cadillac CTS Sport Wagon unveiled
At the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, Cadillac will present their new 2010 Cadillac CTS Sport Wagon. Based in the CTS sport sedan, the Sport Wagon's styling include signature V-shaped deck and tailgat, large, vertical taillamps with light-pipe technology, power-opening liftgate (via key fob or in-vehicle button), CHMSL integrated in subtle roof spoiler. Besides that, the car also features integrated roof load management system with cross bars, cargo management system with adjustable in-floor containment, new 19-inch wheels and a larger panoramic rear sunroof.
Under the hood, the CTS Sport Wagon is available with two versions of the 3.6 liter V6 engine. The first one develops 304 hp (227 kW), produces 25 percent less emissions and has a fuel economy of 26 mpg highway rating. The standard 3.6 liter VVT engine produces 263 hp (196 kW) and 253 lb.-ft. of torque (343 Nm) and serves as the base engine in North America. The engines are matched with six-speed transmissions, including an Aisin six-speed manual or an electronically controlled Hydra-Matic 6L50 six-speed automatic. Also, an efficient 250 hp 2.9 liter turbo-diesel engine is being developed for European and Asian markets.
Following the Pebble Beach premiere, the 2010 Cadillac CTS Sport Wagon will arrive into Cadillac dealerships in spring 2009.

SEMA 2007: Volkswagen Jetta TDI SportWagen
Once again, the thing that intrigues me every time I see high performance wagon cars (everybody knows the Audi RS6) is why the heck would someone buy these cars? But nevermind that, just my thoughts. Anyways, here's the Volkswagen Jetta TDI SportWagen, presented at the SEMA Show and powered by a 2.0 liter Clean Diesel TDI engine which delivers 140 hp and 235 ft.-lbs. of torque.
The car is finished in custom paint and graphics and performance upgrades include H&R Springs to lower its ride height, Brembo brake kit, 19 inch Sportec wheels and Yokohama tyres. View more photos after the jump.

BMW 3-Series Touring Wagon Facelift Spy Shots
Scheduled to be released sometime next year, probably third of fourth quarter, the 2008 BMW 3-Series Touring Wagon was spied while being tested on the streets in Germany. As we can see from the photos, the car will get new headlights and tail-lights, new bumpers and new air intakes.
The 3-Series Touring customers will be able to choose between a 268 hp 3.5 liter V6, mated with a seven-speed automatic transmission and a 228 hp 3.0 liter V6 engine (mated to a six-speed manual transmission). But things aren't easy for BMW, because with Mercedes-Benz C-Class Wagon almost out and Audi preparing the S-Line for the A4 Avant, they are facing some pretty tough competition in this market.

Balmoral Resources Ltd. ("Balmoral" or the "Company") (TSX:BAR) (OTCQX:BALMF) today announced that shallow drilling has continued to confirm broad zones of gold mineralization from the bedrock surface down to the central plunge line of the Bug South gold deposit on the Martiniere Property in Quebec. Results from seven shallow drill holes, completed at the start of the winter 2017 program, include 75.45 metres grading 1.11 g/t gold, 53.80 metres grading 1.12 g/t gold, 50.21 metres grading 1.08 g/t gold and 46.89 metres grading 1.26 g/t gold. The latter intercept, in hole MDE-17-262, collared into the deposit at less than 20 metres vertical depth.
Drilling also extended the core of the Bug South deposit to shallower depths on several sections, including an intercept of 4.04 g/t gold over 8.59 metres in hole MDE-17-264 which brings the high-grade core of the deposit to within 75 metres of surface.

and 174.26 178.61 4.35 3.30 "
* Reported drill intercepts are not true widths. At this time there is insufficient data with respect to the shape of the mineralization to calculate true orientations in space. All values presented uncapped.
Drilling continues on the Martiniere Property with the winter program having been expanded from the planned 7,000 - 8,000 metres to over 10,000 metres, weather conditions permitting. To date over 8,500 metres of drilling has been completed over 25 holes testing the Bug South and Bug North deposits, as well as recent near surface high-grade gold discoveries located to the northeast and southeast of the deposits.
Mr. Darin Wagner (P.Geo.- B.C., Ont., Res. Permit Que.), President and CEO of the Company, is the non-independent qualified person for the technical disclosure contained in this news release. Mr. Wagner has supervised the work programs on the Martiniere Property since inception, visited the property on multiple occasions, discussed and reviewed the results with senior on-site geological staff and reviewed the available analytical and quality control results.
Balmoral has implemented a quality control program for all of its drill programs, to ensure best practice in the sampling and analysis of the drill core, which includes the insertion of blind blanks, duplicates and certified standards into sample stream. NQ sized drill core is saw cut with half of the drill core sampled at intervals based on geological criteria including lithology, visual mineralization and alteration. The remaining half of the core is stored on-site at the Company's Martiniere field camp in Central Quebec. Drill core samples are transported in sealed bags to ALS Minerals' Val d'Or, Quebec analytical facilities. Gold analyses are obtained via industry standard fire assay with atomic absorption finish using 30 g aliquots. For samples returning greater than 5.00 g/t gold follow-up fire assay analysis with a gravimetric finish is completed. The Company has also requested that any samples returning greater than 10.00 g/t gold undergo screen metallic fire assay. Following receipt of assays, visual analysis of mineralized intercepts is conducted and additional analysis may be requested. ALS Minerals is ISO 9001:2008 certified and the Val d'Or facilities are ISO 17025 certified for gold analysis.

Q: How to work jQuery AJAX with PHP array I have a jquery ajax request like;
$.ajax({
url : 'fun_val_itmco.php',
type : 'POST',
data : "agnco="+agnco+"&itmco="+itmco,
dataType : 'json',
success : function(data){
    //How to get array data separately?
    //itmid ?
    //itmco ?
    //itmna ?
}
});

The handler fun_val_itmco.php is set to return an array like;
$agco=htmlspecialchars(trim(@$_POST['agnco']));
$itco=htmlspecialchars(trim(@$_POST['itmco']));

$str=mysql_query("SELECT `iid`, `ico`, `ina`, `cvl`  FROM `itemmas` WHERE `aco`='".$agco."' AND `ico`='".$itco."'");
$dar=mysql_fetch_array($str);
$display_json = array();
$json_arr = array();
try {
    $json_arr["itmid"]=$dar['iid'];
    $json_arr["itmco"]=$dar['ico'];
    $json_arr["itmna"]=$dar['ina'];
    array_push($display_json, $json_arr);
}catch(PDOException $e) {
    echo 'ERROR: ' . $e->getMessage();
}
echo json_encode($display_json);

Please Help me, How to get array data separately?

A: You have to turn your data string into an object. You can do that with jQuery's parseJSON
var obj = jQuery.parseJSON( data );
alert( obj.name === "John" );

A: You are pushing the results to an empty array and although that seems unnecessary, that's why you need to add an array index to access the values:
data[0].itmid
data[0].timco
// etc.

Removing the array_push line and just using $json_arr would make that easier.
Apart from that:

*

Q: How to pull multiple attributes from one selected element? Say for example I have
<select>
    <option id="4" data-name="tomato" data-length="six">Tomato</option>
    <option id="5" data-name="onion" data-length="five">Onion</option>
</select>

I'm trying to call some javascript code later that will take those data-names and length for different variables:
var str = "name=" + jQuery("#data-name").val() + "&length=" + jQuery("#data-length").val();

How would I do this for multiple attributes from the same element?

A: Try.....
 var select= $("select option:selected");
 var str = "name=" + $(select).attr('data-name') + "&length=" + $(select).attr('data-length');

A: You could access jQuery data-attributes with data() function:
var $opt = $("select option:selected");
var str = "name=" + $opt.data("name") + "&length=" + $data("length");

Or simply treating them as attributes:
var $opt = $("select option:selected");
var str = "name=" + $opt.attr("data-name") + "&length=" + $opt.attr("data-length");

This question may help you to understand the differences between these two approaches: jQuery Data vs Attr?.

A: Check this fiddle : here
In jquery, use $().data('') to get a data property of an element
jquery

$(document).ready(function() {
  alert($("#4").data('name') + " || " + $("#4").data('length'));
});

A: You can get the value using .data():

var str = "name=" + jQuery("#1").data("name") + "&length=" + jQuery("#1").data("length");

A: If you don't want to use jQuery, there are at least two approaches:

*

*If you need the new variables before the user submits the form with your select control, you can attach an "onchange" to the <select> tag to trigger a Javascript function you create to assign the user-selected value(s) to JS variable(s).

*If you need the new variables after the user submits the form containing your select control, then on the page to which the form sends the user (and it can be the same page the form is on), you could use PHP to catch the submitted values and to write your Javascript variables into the page's header area.
If you allow multiple selections from a single control, watch for the user-selected values to be returned as an array.
Hope this helps!

A: Use data() method to access data attribute value , Example
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
  $('select option').each(function(){
    alert('name='+ $(this).data('name') +  '&length=' + $(this).data('length') );
  });

});

Yes, more New York City, please!
I love shooting weddings and couple portrait sessions around the world, and New York is one of my favorite places ever.
New York City is the place to be, and it's incredibly beautiful even if it's raining, even if it's a grey day – especially if you have such a lovely couple to light up your day.
Clara and Grant are a lovely couple from New York City. They live in a skyscraper, in the crazy, fun and exciting environment of WeLive.
They are both entrepreneurs, and they had got married in Portugal a few weeks before our shooting, but still, they wanted to enjoy the vibe of the city!
After having read each other their vows, Clara and Grant got ready separately in their apartment.
Then Grant waited for Clara on the rooftop terrace, for one of the most spectacular first look I've ever seen!
We walked with the couple up to Pier 16, where Clara and Grant exchanged their rings in front of the Brooklyn Bridge.
The weather was grey and windy, but the result couldn't have been more amazing!
We had a couple photo session in the Fulton area afterward. That block is amazing, so Old-New York style in its early industrial building!
At the end of the shooting, we walked Clara and Grant back to WeLive, where they ended their elopement day at the MailRoom, the nightclub of the building.
We love New York and we loved this shooting – everything was just amazing!

La guerra anglo-svedese ebbe luogo nel corso delle guerre napoleoniche. La Svezia fu sempre alleata con il Regno Unito, con la sola eccezione del periodo 1810-1812. Come risultato della guerra di Finlandia ed a seguito del Trattato di Fredrikshamn, la Svezia dichiarò guerra al Regno Unito. La guerra però esistette soltanto sulla carta ed i britannici furono ufficialmente autorizzati a mantenere navi nel porto svedese dell'isola di Hanö ed a commerciare con le nazioni del Baltico.

Storia

La pace firmata a Parigi nel 1810 obbligò la Svezia ad unirsi al blocco continentale, un embargo commerciale contro il Regno Unito. Dal momento che il Regno Unito era il più grande partner commerciale della Svezia, la questione era divenuta un grosso problema. Il commercio continuò a svolgersi attraverso il contrabbando. La Francia alla fine si stancò della riluttanza svedese nel far rispettare l'embargo commerciale, e il 13 novembre 1810 presentò un ultimatum al governo svedese:
la Svezia aveva cinque giorni di tempo per:

 Dichiarare guerra contro il Regno Unito
 Confiscare tutte le navi britanniche presenti nei porti svedesi
 Sequestrare tutti i prodotti britannici in Svezia

Se la Svezia non avesse soddisfatto i requisiti dell'ultimatum francese, la Francia ed i suoi alleati avrebbero dichiarato guerra alla Svezia. Il 17 novembre, il governo svedese accettò i requisiti francesi e dichiarò guerra al Regno Unito.

Tuttavia non avvennero atti di guerra durante il periodo di belligeranza dichiarata. Al Regno Unito era ancora permesso di mantenere navi ad Hano durante "il conflitto". L'unico spargimento di sangue durante la guerra avvenne il 15 giugno 1811, quando il Maggior Generale Hampus Morner con 140 uomini dovette sciogliere l'assembramento di un gruppo di agricoltori di Klågerup in Scania che contestavano l'arruolamento di soldati. Nei disordini di Klågerup 30 contadini vennero uccisi dai soldati di Morner.

Quando Jean-Baptiste Jules Bernadotte venne eletto sovrano di Svezia, le relazioni politiche con la Francia andarono deteriorandosi. Quando la Francia occupò la Pomerania svedese e l'isola di Rügen nel 1812, la Svezia cercò la pace con il Regno Unito. Dopo lunghi negoziati, il trattato di pace venne firmato il 18 luglio 1812 a Örebro nello stesso giorno e luogo in cui inglesi e russi firmarono un trattato di pace che pose termine alla guerra anglo-russa.

Type 2 Diabetes and Healthy Living – Start Setting Realistic Goals
Whenever you aim to take on a challenge for a result, you are setting a goal. Goals may be ambitious or straightforward: veer off too much in one direction, and you risk wasting your time. Too simple, and you may not care enough about the result, and feel uninspired. Too ambitious, and you risk trying something too challenging, and finding more frustration than inspiration.
Aim for a balance. Set realistic goals that are not too easy but are well within your reach. If you are setting health goals, this is particularly important…
1. Setting realistic weight loss goals. Let us start with weight loss as it is a subject of much debate and interest. Weight loss requires a more realistic approach than perhaps anything else. It is one thing to say you will lose 30 pounds by the end of the year, and another to be able to follow through. It is much better to tell yourself you will take it one week or one month at a time, and then you will accumulate small, but significant amounts of progress.
One pound a week adds up quickly, and even if you are a bit short, it is progress in the right direction. Don't be too optimistic about what you can achieve in the long-term. For now, worry about what you can accomplish in the next few weeks and months, and don't run before you can walk.
2. Realistic nutrition goals. Nutrition is under the same scope because without eating well you are unlikely to make weight loss progress. However, it is best not to aim to drastically reduce your caloric intake, or make the same type of dramatic changes to your diet. Start with small steps. Small changes to your diet will go a long way.
3. Feasible exercise strategies. Exercise is essential. If you have been sedentary and recently had a wake-up call such as the diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes, you may have decided to change for good. This time it will be different, you tell yourself: that is a good start.
However, be careful about being overzealous. Don't be too ambitious at first. If you are exercising to achieve…
lower blood sugar levels, or
improving your cardiovascular health,
moderation is key. Going from zero workouts to five or more a week is too much, and it is a difficult goal to sustain.
Instead, establish possible exercise strategies. Aim to exercise three times a week. Do this until it becomes a set routine in your life and you don't need to think twice about it. If your nutrition is right, you will make progress. You will also be more likely to enjoy your workout at the gym, the walks you go on, and the fitness classes you attend.
Setting realistic goals is ultimately part of establishing a realistic plan for your health. Set health goals you will achieve, and accumulate these successes.

JDRF joins forces for Connect Immune Research project to tackle autoimmune conditions
A collection of charities representing people with autoimmune conditions have joined forces to launch a research project to understand the conditions, of which type 1 diabetes is one.
The UK has a high number of people diagnosed with autoimmune conditions, which include rheumatoid arthritis, celiac disease, multiple sclerosis and Addison's disease in addition to type 1 diabetes and many others.
Autoimmune conditions are those whereby the immune system targets apparently healthy cells within the body. To date, there are only theories as to why the immune system can act in this way.
The research project, known as Connect Immune Research is a collaboration of three charities; type 1 diabetes research charity, JDRF, multiple sclerosis charity, the MS Society, and arthritis charity, Versus Arthritis in the project. The initiative is also supported by the British Society for Immunology and the Medical Research Council and Wellcome supported its development.
One of the first trials to be run as part of the project is a study into interferons, which are signalling proteins which play an important role within the immune system. Interferons are a particular area of interest in understanding type 1 diabetes as well as other autoimmune diseases.
The interferon study will be led by the University of Edinburgh's Professor Yanick Crow and will aim to understand more about the role of interferons in autoimmunity.
It is believed about four million people in the UK have an autoimmune condition, including 400,000 people with type 1 diabetes. Almost a third of those with one of these conditions, also have another.
Karen Addington, JDRF's chief executive in the UK, said: "Autoimmune conditions all involve the immune system acting inappropriately, so we know they are connected. But researchers investigating different autoimmune conditions are not. Until now they have largely worked separately, focused on the specific conditions rather than the interconnected factors of autoimmunity.
"By bringing them together, we can more find information about these conditions – meaning reduced costs, and more new treatments, faster. One insight into one condition could act as a skeleton key, unlocking a range of treatments and even cures."
Director of research at Versus Arthritis Dr Stephen Simpson said: "The immune system continues to intrigue us and as we get closer to finding ways of moderating its response in inflammatory arthritis, new and unexpected challenges emerge. This is why it's important for charities and scientists to come together in this way and look at autoimmune conditions collectively, as well as focusing on specific conditions."
The MS Society's director of research Dr Susan Kohlhaas added: "Autoimmunity needs to be recognised as a distinct area of research science, alongside the likes of cancer, infectious disease and dementia. We're driving research into more and better treatments all the time, but autoimmunity must be supported to stand on its own and grow as a research area."

Rugby player with type 1 diabetes in FreeStyle Libre mission
Worcester Warriors player Chris Pennell, who has type 1 diabetes, is calling on NHS bosses in his county to end the FreeStyle Libre postcode lottery.
The fullback self-funds the flash glucose monitoring system and says it has transformed his life.
Abbott's FreeStyle Libre, which eliminates the need for regular finger prick testing for blood glucose levels, became available to the NHS from November last year, subject to decisions at a local level.
Two out of three NHS Clinical Commissioning Groups (CGGs) in the country now offer the technology. This however leaves people living in the other one in three CCGs, including Worcestershire, unable to access the system unless they pay for it themselves.
The rugby star says decision makers at the CCGs in Worcestershire should act swiftly by allowing the health service to prescribe the device because it "saves lives".
The 31-year-old, who lives in the city, told Worcester News: "This could save lives. The impact it made on my life was enormous in terms of getting to grips with my diabetes management. It allows you to see early if your glucose is going to rise. Over two thirds of the country have access to Libre, we are lagging behind."
A former captain of his club, the sportsman was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 2007.
Speaking about how the technology revealed he was dropping into hypoglycemia in the night, he said: "If I had not [realised], the risk of me having some kind of bad complication was pretty high."
He believes the FreeStyle Libre will help the NHS to save money because it allows people with diabetes to look after themselves better, reducing the risks of diabetes complications.
Healthwatch Worcestershire is backing the rugby player and is calling on people living in the county with diabetes to come forward and add their names to the campaign.
Speaking to Worcester News, its chief operating officer Simon Adams said: "The benefits are obvious to the layperson but Worcestershire CCGs [Clinical Commissioning Groups] are one of the few CCGs that have refused to fund it.
"To the layperson it appears to be a common-sense solution to managing a complex condition which is absolutely in line with the CCGs policy on self-care and management of conditions and the health minister's commitment to a digital NHS."
But a Worcestershire CCGs spokesman said: "Currently the three Worcestershire CCGs do not commission the use of flash glucose monitoring devices. In Worcestershire, the process used to decide which medicines (including appliances such as blood glucose testing equipment) are approved for NHS funding is managed by the Worcestershire Area Prescribing Committee (APC).
"This committee, to date, concludes that there is insufficient evidence to support use of any flash glucose monitoring device at the current time. The situation will continue to be monitored as more data is published."
NHS audit reveals importance of preventing diabetes-related complications
The importance of reducing the risk of diabetes-related complications has been emphasised after new data was revealed by the NHS.
The NHS National Diabetes Audit is one of the largest annual clinical audits worldwide, integrating patient information from primary and secondary care practices to assess how care could be improved.
This year's audit has been released, and it contains an important finding: each week, 500 deaths from avoidable complications such as kidney disease and sight loss could be prevented among people with diabetes.
Over the last three years, deaths from preventable diabetes-related complications have increased by roughly 10%.
This is undeniably concerning information, but it hopefully highlights how complications are indeed preventable.
People with diabetes can reduce their complications risk through focusing on positive changes to health, such as restricting sugar intake. These days many of us do not realise how much sugar is being sneaked into foods by manufacturers.
Getting regular exercise is too beneficial for all-round health and your health team can help you choose a level of activity that is appropriate for you.
Charity Diabetes UK has called on NHS England to continue to improve the quality of local diabetes services, which it has been doing through the Diabetes Transformation Fund.
Since 2017, the NHS Diabetes Transformation Fund has invested more than £80 million across England to improve diabetes care.
The charity stressed that while good work is being done, the statistics revealed in the National Diabetes Audit highlight how the NHS needs to help curb the growing numbers of preventable deaths as a matter of urgency.
Editor's note: Eating a low carb diet has been shown to have heart health benefits and our award-winning Low Carb Program has helped people with diabetes lose weight, reduce their HbA1c levels and even put type 2 diabetes into remission.

Hepatic Insulin Clearance in Regulation of Systemic Insulin Concentrations–Role of Carbohydrate and Energy Availability
Hyperinsulinemia is the hallmark of insulin resistance in obesity, and the relative importance of insulin clearance, insulin resistance, and insulin hypersecretion has been widely debated. On the basis of recent experimental evidence, we summarize existing evidence to suggest hepatic insulin clearance as a major and immediate regulator of systemic insulin concentrations responding within days to altered dietary energy and, in particular, carbohydrate intake. Hepatic insulin clearance seems to be closely associated with opposite alterations in hepatic lipid content and glucose production, providing a potential mechanistic link to hepatic insulin sensitivity. The molecular regulation of insulin clearance in the liver is likely to involve changes in insulin binding and receptor internalization in response to the dietary alterations, the molecular mechanisms of which await further research.
Developmental Programming of Obesity and Diabetes in Mouse, Monkey, and Man in 2018: Where Are We Headed?
Childhood obesity and its comorbidities continue to accelerate across the globe. Two-thirds of pregnant women are obese/overweight, as are 20% of preschoolers. Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is escalating, affecting up to 1 in 5 pregnant women. The field of developmental origins of health and disease has begun to move beyond associations to potential causal mechanisms for developmental programming. Evidence across species compellingly demonstrates that maternal obesity, diabetes, and Western-style diets create a long-lasting signature on multiple systems, including infant stem cells, the early immune system, and gut microbiota. Such exposures accelerate adipogenesis, disrupt mitochondrial metabolism, and impair energy sensing, affecting neurodevelopment, liver, pancreas, and skeletal muscle. Attempts to prevent developmental programming have met with very limited success. A challenging level of complexity is involved in how the host genome, metabolome, and microbiome throughout pregnancy and lactation increase the offspring's risk of metabolic diseases across the life span. Considerable gaps in knowledge include the timing of exposure(s) and permanence or plasticity of the response, encompassing effects from both maternal and paternal dysmetabolism. Basic, translational, and human intervention studies targeting pathways that connect diet, microbiota, and metabolism in mothers with obesity/GDM and their infants are a critical unmet need and present new challenges for disease prevention in the next generation.

Sydney GP loses appeal over insulin murder
A Sydney doctor has lost an appeal against his conviction for the murder of his second wife with a lethal dose of fast-acting insulin.
Brian Kenneth Crickitt, 65, was jailed for a minimum of 20 years in May 2017 after being found guilty of killing his wife, Christine Crickitt. The murder took place shortly before or after New Year in 2010, at the couple's home in Woodbine, South-West Sydney.
It was originally found by the trial judge that Crickitt spent the night with his new lover, Linda Livermore, after allegedly administering the injection. The judge also found that Crickitt's increasing dislike of his wife and new attraction to Ms Livermore provided a motive for the murder.
Crickitt was supported by his third wife, Julie Crickitt, throughout his trial.
Crickitt was found to have performed two internet searches on insulin overdose in the days prior to the murder. The trial judge also found that he had improperly used a prescription he had written for a patient with diabetes to obtain fast-acting insulin from a pharmacy.
The autopsy could not conclude the cause of death, however the judge ruled out suicide and accidental death, ultimately finding the overdose of insulin to be responsible.
Crickitt's appeal argued that medical experts could not determine his wife's cause of death and that the verdict was unreasonable and unsupported by evidence.
The appeal court was required to decide if the Crown had proven in the trial, beyond reasonable doubt, that Crickitt was responsible for the death of his wife and so, if the trial judge had made the correct ruling.
The court ultimately rejected all grounds of the appeal, concluding that "in this case, it was well open to the trial judge to infer from the facts that he found that the applicant deliberately and intentionally caused the death of the deceased by administering insulin to her."
A number of healthcare professionals have been convicted of causing death deliberately with insulin. Thankfully, this form of murder is limited to very rare cases.

I have to say that I had very few 'oh my god what am I watching?' moments as I made my way through Season 6 of Smallville. I'm not sure if my standards have sunk so low for the show, or if it actually was an interesting and entertaining season. I'm going to have to hope for the later, but I think i'm too close to the show to offer any informed opinion. There were a few standout episodes, but I don't think they reached the highs of the earlier seasons. Lex continues to be the real star of the show in my eyes, and this season the writers seemed to have figured out how to set things up so he's evil and yet sympathetic. There are a few unresolved plot points at the end of the season that could take his character in a couple directions. The whole Green Arrow subplot was enjoyable, although I suppose it was also cheesy at times. (I guess a show about teenage Superman is going to be cheesy no matter what you do.) The season finale was good, though not as totally insane as those of seasons past. Lots of death and destruction, but it wasn't as over the top as Season 4 or 5, and not as intense as Season 2. (I liked how they introduced Bizarro Superman at the very end of the show, though.) The take away from all this is that Season 6 is a big step up from the last two seasons. Now I just need to wait for Season 7 to make it to DVD.
You should also watch Big Bang Theory and How I met your mother. Mind you those are both comedies but enjoyable nevertheless. I am going to start Psych and Weeds when the coop term starts. I have heard both of those shows are also good.
I dunno. Big Bang Theory seemed king of dumb — at least the episode I watched. I'm not sure what i'm going to watch next. I think Shima and I will watch Smallville from the beginning since she's never seen it before.
you're going to watch every season of smallville AGAIN?
I know — it's crazy. I think the first few seasons are worth watching again. I'm not so sure about Season 4 or 5: at least there is a lot of T&A in those seasons though.
There has never been a good episode, let alone season, of Smallville. What is wrong with you? Is this a cry for help?
Watch Weeds, it's damn hilarious!

Did you guys have fun watching the Super Bowl yesterday? I'll admit it wasn't QUITE the Super Bowl competition that I was expecting. But it was still a good game. And I loved the Halftime show and of course the commercials!
What's really exciting to me though, is that the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) have teamed up with the NFL to create 50 bespoke designer footballs. I've listed some of my favorite ones below along with some information about each design. The footballs will be up for auction until February 14th and all proceeds go to the NFL Foundation. I love how creative they all are! Like turning a football into a big piece of candy? Such an awesome idea! Which football is your favorite?
Click here to place a bid on this item!
Favorite Football Team: Whatever team my husband is cheering for!
Click here to place a bid on this ite;m!
Favorite Football Team: The New England Patriots. I love Tom Brady!
Production Time: It took almost 30 hours to make the football!
Design Inspiration: Victory is Sweet.
Design Inspiration: A football left overnight in the end zone decided to bloom!
Design Materials: Golden football with hand-cut multicolored leather flowers covering the surface. At the center of each of the flowers are the past 49 Super Bowl logos.
Design Inspiration: I thought it would be fun to put a feminine twist on a typically masculine item. I wanted to keep the football somewhat authentic, so I decided to custom dye leather to the perfect shade of pink and reconstruct the ball. As a jewelry designer, I wanted to include lots of gold and silver tones. The NFL logo includes stars and since I have many star motifs in my line, I thought they would make the perfect accent and add a little luck.
Design Materials: Custom dyed pink leather. Gold plated hardware.
Production Time: Four weeks, from design approval until the deadline.
Favorite Football Team: NY Jets of course! Stick with the home team!
Production Time: A couple weeks, working on it a little bit everyday.
Favorite Football Team: It depends whether I'm with my nephew, my dad or my husband.
Design Inspiration: I love anything gold that sparkles. Need I say more? It's everything I love!
Production Time: It took about 1 1/2 months.
Favorite Football Team: The LA Rams (before they went to St. Louis). I was just starting out my career when they made it to the Super Bowl in 1979. I remember there being a lot of buzz and excitement.
Design Inspiration: The football pays homage to Tadashi's heritage and is a celebration of Japan in the springtime.
Design Materials: Embroidered tulle, glass beads, grommets, leather laces, vinyl.
Design Inspiration: I wanted it to look like a piece of jewelry, outrageously oversized and over the top!
Production Time: HOURS! I attached each stone myself by hand so it was a labor of love!

Great News!! We are still accepting Applications for both Teen and Miss for the pageant until Saturday night March 10, 2019.
1. Contestant must prove she is a Pennsylvania resident for the six (6) month period preceding the local pageant date.
2. Contestant must prove she is a full-time employee in Pennsylvania for the six (6) month period preceding the local pageant date.
3. Contestant must prove she has successfully completed at least one semester as a full-time (at least 12 credit hours) student and be presently enrolled and attending classes on a full-time basis at an accredited college or university in Pennsylvania. Also, no more than six (6) months may have elapsed between the completion of last full-time semester attended and the beginning of the next full-time semester to be attended at a college or university in Pennsylvania.
A minimum donation of $100.00 must be made to the Children's Miracle Network for each pageant ($500.00 makes a contestant eligible for ALL local pageants for the current pageant year) entered. The Miss Bucks County, Montgomery County, and the Miss Liberty Bell Scholarship Organization is an OPEN pageant, it is necessary to raise only $100 since it is considered to be one pageant with three titles.
2. Find the blue box entitled "New Contestants Click Here." Even if you competed at Miss Pennsylvania in 2018 - 2019 Pageant Year or at Miss Pennsylvania in June 2019 you must set up a new "ID" to use for ALL local pageants in which you participate in the year leading to the 2019 Miss Pennsylvania Pageant.
You will use the same "ID" for all local pageants in which you compete.
4. You will be taken to the Contestant Profile Page where you will fill in your First Name, Last Name, State (Pennsylvania) Pageant, Pageant Year (2018-2019) Fund Raising Goal (at least 100.00), Email Address, Address, City and Zip. You will also create a User ID and Password. In addition, you may upload a small photo from your computer, if you wish. The picture, in blue, below shows you how to complete your profile.
5. When done with the page hit "save" and you will be taken to the second page in the blue below.
6. On that page, you will enter "Miss Bucks County, Miss Montgomery County, and the Miss Liberty Bell Scholarship Organization" and then click on "Add."
7. You will then be given directions on how to submit the funds to "Miss America 4 Kids." Please note some contestants are choosing to raise the money themselves and then submitting it rather than sending many emails to family and friends. Also note that if extra money beyond the required $100.00 is raised that the extra can be "rolled over" to compete in other upcoming local pageants for the 2018-2019 pageant year or, should you win a title, be applied to the $500.00 that state contestants are required to raise for state competition.
8. Many other answers to questions can be found in the "Frequently Asked Questions" section of the Miss America 4 Kids website.
9. The information below was received from Miss America and answers some questions about "rollover" of funds donated for one pageant to another pageant.
10. Please note that the exact procedure is subject to change. Should there be a change, please follow the directions on the Miss America 4 Kids website.
Donations, in excess of the minimum amount required for each pageant, collected by a contestant, maybe rolled-over for use in multiple Local Pageants, State and National pageants within a pageant cycle. A pageant cycle starts with the Local pageant that leads to State, which leads to the National pageant for a title leading to Miss America within that pageant cycle. When a contestant starts a new pageant cycle at the Local level (which could involve several Local pageants for that cycle, no funds are rolled over from the prior pageant cycle (Miss America title) and everyone is at the same starting place for fundraising.
All contestants must register at MissAmerica4Kids.org.
Dual local pageants only require each contestant to have a minimum expected goal of $100.
Any donations collected in excess of the $100 for Pageant 1, will automatically roll-over into the contestant's excess account and will be used toward their fundraising goal for Pageant 2. Any excess funds from Pageant 2 will automatically roll-over and will be used toward their fundraising goal for Pageant 3, etc.
The maximum donation required to enter all local pageants for the current year is $400.
If a contestant does not go on to compete at the State level, any excess funds over the $100 per pageant entered will be equally distributed among all the local pageants the contestants competed in.
Should the contestant win a local pageant, any excess donations will automatically roll-over and are applied to the $500 minimum required for the State Pageant.
Should contestant collect donations during her state competition, then the "borrowed" excess funds from the local level will be returned to the local level for allocation under the local accounts.
Should the contestant win the State pageant, any excess donations will automatically roll-over and are applied to the $1000 minimum required goal for the National Pageant.
Miss Bucks County, Miss Montgomery County, and the Miss Liberty Bell Scholarship Organization Judging Process.
The above scoring, which totals 100%, will result in the determination of the Top Five contestants. The names of the Top Five WILL NOT BE ANNOUNCED AT THE PAGEANT. The names of the Top Five will, however, be given to the judges in competition order. The resulting overall totals will determine the pageant winners.
The Talent Time Limit for Local Pageants leading to the 2018 State Pageants is 1 minute, 30 seconds. It will also be 1 minute, 30 seconds at the Miss Pennsylvania and the Miss America Pageants.
"In recent years, many contestants have taken advantage of the rule which allows for BACKGROUND vocals, instrumentation, etc. That "taking advantage" includes instrumentalists and tap dancers using the instrument they play as well as tap dancers using additional taps on their accompaniment tape to enhance their performance. Regardless of the talent performed, the background tape cannot have voices, instruments, or other noises, which mimic the talent of the contestant. (Example: A vocalist may have background vocals with "oohs and aahs" or other background lyrics, but cannot have a tape with a voice singing the melody line for the contestant to sing along with. The same would be said for instrumentalists, dancers and any other talent which could provide for an unfair advantage if a judge could not delineate from the talent on the track versus the live performance of the contestant.)"
Contestants are required to be at the CEG Performing Arts Academy (684 North Broad Street-2nd floor Philadelphia PA 19130) in Philadelphia PA) no later than 9:00 am (for interviews/rehearsal) on Sunday, March 24th, 2019. CEG Free parking available at 1406 Ridge Avenue parking lot.

Nina Turner (* 7. Dezember 1967 in Cleveland, Ohio als Nina Hudson) ist eine US-amerikanische Politikerin der Demokratischen Partei. Von 2008 bis 2014 war sie Mitglied des Senats von Ohio, seit 2016 ist sie im Board of Directors der Organisation Our Revolution.

Leben
Nina Turners Eltern waren bei ihrer Geburt selbst noch Teenager und ließen sich scheiden, als Turner fünf Jahre alt war. Sie hat sechs jüngere Geschwister und wuchs in "ärmlichen" Verhältnissen auf. Ihre Kindheit war geprägt von mehreren Wohnortwechseln. Bereits im Alter von 14 Jahren begann sie zu arbeiten. Sie verließ die John F. Kennedy High-School 1986 im Alter von 19 Jahren und war zunächst erwerbstätig. In den folgenden Jahren erwarb sie einen Associate Degree, einen Bachelor am Community College im Cuyahoga County und 1997 einen Master of Arts in Geschichte an der Cleveland State University.

Karriere

Turner begann ihre politische Karriere als Praktikantin von Senator Rhine McLin, später arbeitete sie für Michael R. White, den damaligen Bürgermeister von Cleveland. Unter ihm wurde sie zum "Executive Assistent of Legislative Affairs". Sie kandidierte 2001 für den Cleveland City Council (etwa: Stadtrat Clevelands), erhielt nach einer ersten Niederlage aber erst 2004 ein Mandat.

Als der 2007 gewählte Senator Lance Mason sein Mandat 2008 zu Gunsten eines Richteramtes niederlegte, wurde Turner von den verbleibenden Demokraten als Ersatz bestimmt. Am 15. September 2008 wurde sie Mitglied des Senats von Ohio.

In der Senatswahl 2010 erhielt sie dann ein reguläres Mandat. 2014 verlor sie ihre Kandidatur als Secretary of State von Ohio gegen Jon A. Husted, nachdem sie zuvor auch von Bill Clinton unterstützt worden war.

Während der Vorwahlen und des Wahlkampfes zur Präsidentschaftswahl in den Vereinigten Staaten 2016 unterstützte Turner erst Hillary Clinton, dann Bernie Sanders.

2016 wurde sie in das Board of Directors der NGO Our Revolution berufen.

2018 spielt sie sich selbst in einer Gastrolle in der Fernsehserie Black Lightning.

Apple said to be studying solar, motion charging for iWatch
The company has apparently spent a lot of time studying charging methods for the iWatch, according to a report in The New York Times.
Brooke Crothers
Feb. 2, 2014 10:04 p.m. PT
iWatch concept. Todd Hamilton
A New York Times report is providing more fodder for iWatch speculation, including the purported use of solar power.
Apple has been testing both solar and wireless charging for the rumored iWatch, according to a story in Sunday's New York Times.
The wireless charging method would involve magnetic induction, according to the report.
This could conceivably involve the use of a charging plate.
Another method to juice up the watch may be to integrate a solar-charging layer in the screen, according to the report.
Yet another involves "charging the battery through movement, a method that is already used in many modern watches," the Times reported. "A person's arm swinging could operate a tiny charging station that generates and pushes power to the device while walking." Apple filed a patent for the technology in 2009.
The impetus for alternatives to the traditional battery is rooted in the fact that a smart watch powered by a sophisticated processor would run out of juice too soon to entice consumers.
In the story, the Times cited Nest co-founder and "one of the fathers of the iPod" Tony Fadell, saying Apple tried for "many years" to build a smarter battery with, for example, solar charging but failed.
The report also repeated previous rumors of a curved glass display.

Q: How to use Swift generic enum's? My question is pretty simple? How can you use generics in enum's?
i've got a protocol:
protocol Request {
   associatedType BackendModel = Codable
}

class FirstModel: Codable { }

class FirstRequest: Request {
   typealias BackendModel = Codable
}

Now i want to make an enum with a succes/failure for the request call. And the success should return my BackendModel. i thought something like this but it doesn't work.
enum Response<T: Codable> {
   case success(T)
   case failure(Error)
}

And then i would use it in a function completion
// This function is used in an extension of the Request protocol.
func doCallWithCompletion(completion: ((Response<T: BackendModel>) -> Void)?) {
     let model = FirstModel()
     completion(.success(model))
}

Thanks!

A: You need to give a concrete type as generic parameter while declaring closure with enum:
extension Request {

    func doCallWith(completion:(Response<FirstModel>) -> ()) {
        let model = FirstModel()
        completion(.success(model))
    }

}


...e bizarro world of Bitcoin core development, we not only have developers supporting such a policy, but writing code and attempting to persuade miners to use it! I've even heard it argued that, if for no other reason, RBF should be adopted because it will teach people not to accept zero confirmation transactions since they are unsafe. This is the functional equivalent to slashing some one's tires because there is a tiny percentage chance they will get into an accident if they drive. "Driving is unsafe!" It's incredibly paternalistic and disingenuous.
