New nanoboxes take shape
By Lewis Brindley2009-08-20T15:35:00+01:00
Tiny cubes fold themselves up in a new way to make patterned 3D structures on the nanoscale
US researchers have made nano-sized boxes from nickel and tin - marking the first time that patterned 3D structures have been built on the nanoscale. The boxes and fabrication process could have great potential for making interesting nanostructures, for applications ranging from electronics to drug delivery.
'I'm interested in miniaturising the world,' says David Gracias, who led the research at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, US. 'We have a lot of nanotechnology techniques that allow us to build very well in 2D - but building in 3D is more difficult.'
The cubes resemble tiny dice around 100nm in size - patterned on each side with the university initials, JHU, in lines as thin as 15nm. 'Patterning in 3D is just as important as building in 3D,' Gracias adds. 'This is because a complex surface allows the construction of circuits or attachment of substrates for biological or optical purposes.'
Construction of the boxes started with a flat cross-shaped template, made from square 'panels' of nickel joined together by 'hinges' of fragmented tin, all fabricated on a silicon substrate. When heat is applied to the template, the tin grains liquefy and melt together, creating torque that folds and lifts the plates into place, making a cube.

A flat template of nickel plates and tin hinges will fold up into a cube
Using a foldable template means that the panels can be etched in 2D beforehand - either punctured with holes or inscribed with metal such as gold. A downside of the technique is that it requires two treatments of electron-beam lithography - firstly to make the templates, and secondly to etch the sides of the cube away from the silicon surface so they can lift up. This second process is also the source of the heat needed to melt the tin hinges.
By adjusting the amount of tin in the hinge, the angle of the fold can be changed. The team is hoping to use this to design other interesting shapes like four-sided pyramids or maybe even 12-sided dodecahedrons.

This is fantastic work - it uses a very unconventional approach to make unique 3D structures,' says Stephen Chou, a nanotechnology expert at Princeton University, US. 'I can see many applications of such a creative nanofabrication method in sensors, nanofluidic devices, and others.'
'The idea of folding up 2D structures is not radically new, but it is amazing to see how this strategy can be used to build such complicated structures,' says Chengde Mao, at Purdue University, Indiana, US. The boxes themselves may also prove useful in certain applications; they are metallic and quite stable, so there could be potential in storage, transportation, labelling or confinement, Mao notes.

Royal Tea Party tickets sold out in hours
Lord Mayor Gareth Wilson in the Royal Photo Booth awaiting guests for a special tea party to mark the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Photo by Liam McArdle
Published: 16:29 Updated: 16:43 Tuesday 24 April 2018
Tickets to a Royal Tea Party to mark the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle sold out within hours, said Armagh Banbridge and Craigavon Lord Mayor.
Lord Mayor Alderman Gareth Wilson said he was 'bowled over' by the response from the public to the Royal Tea Party.
The special event was advertised on social media on Monday morning but all 480 tickets to the free event were snapped up by early afternoon.
ABC Council had issued the invitations to residents on behalf of the Lord Mayor for a 'right Royal tea party' in Craigavon Civic and Conference Centre on Wednesday 16 May.
Guests were asked to come along and enjoy a cuppa, cakes and treats at one of the two events taking place.
Compered by Gene Fitzpatrick, there will be music by Alan Crawford and Panache as well as an opportunity to get a photograph taken with the life sized cut-out of the happy couple in the Royal Wedding Themed Photo Booth!
The council offered two sittings – one in the morning at 10.30am and one in the afternoon at 2.30pm.
And with admission free by ticket only, only those who have managed to get their hands on one will be able to enjoy the event.
A Council spokesperson said: "The tea parties are taking place in the Mayes Hall of Craigavon Civic and Conference Centre which can hold 240 people per sitting.
"For the two Royal Tea Parties a total of 480 tickets were available and snapped up with hours of release yesterday."
Lord Mayor Alderman Wilson said, "I am really delighted to be hosting two special tea party sittings to mark the Royal Wedding and I was really bowled over by the public interest in the event.
"The tickets were snapped up within a few hours of being made available proving that the appetite for all things Royal is huge in the Borough.
"I look forward to meeting the public on the day!"

N2 - The paper is based on an empirical sociological survey which was completed in autumn 2001. It focused on the musical taste or preferences and musical activities of the section of the population of the Czech Republic aged between 18 and 75 years. 1,056 questionnaires altogether were collected by a specialised research company, providing a safe representative sample of the total population (more than 8 million) of the country. Of the results achieved so far, the most striking is the prominent position which the musical has attained among audiences over the last decade. In fact, the musical is the most important musical phenomenon of the 1990s in the Czech Republic. Before 1989, when musical life was controlled by the state, it played only a marginal role. An infrastructure has been established for the music business. Largely centralised in the capital, networks of specialist agencies, theatres, and stars, recruiting mostly from the sphere of rock and pop, have quickly become established. If we focus on the reception of genres of music theatre, we can summarize by stating that the musical is supported by 54%, the operetta by 33%, and the opera by 23% of the population. The data available suggest that opera has become an increasingly exclusive social institution over the last two decades. It raises the question whether there is a connection between the decrease in popularity of the opera and the increase in the role of the musical. It is rather plausible to read the data as supporting evidence for a hypothesis that the musical is in part a replacement for the opera in the generation aged between 30 and 59. Opera remains popular only among people aged over 60.

Hi Dave, the drawers are secured by clips, which are on the runners. To remove the drawers, you press the clips in and this will give you the access you need.
What is the dimension of the depth of internal basin?
The internal depth is 125mm Danny.
Does one have to have a tap hole, as my tap is wall fitted?
The basin would come with the tap hole Patricia, you can buy a tap hole stopper from a plumbers merchant to fill this in.
Great question, Jo. The bowl is approximately 445mm wide, 225mm long and 125mm deep.
There is space from the wall to accommodate any pipework, it's between 40 - 70mm.


I love a little bit of jewellery and for me especially, I love silver jewellery the most. I've gone from being a solid lover of gold to being head over heels for silver. I was lucky enough to receive a pretty little package from JewelleryBox.co.uk last week with a bunch of gorgeous silver jewellery and I really, really, really want to share it all with you!
First of all - I'm too excited to leave this until last but how cute is this Brontosaurus Necklace!? I first heard of JewelleryBox.co.uk sometime last year and met some of the team at the Bloggers Festival in September and that is where I first fell for this cute dinosaur necklace I spotted in their beautifully displayed stall. This pretty, fun yet simple dinosaur necklace is made of sterling silver so immediately shouts out quality. On first impressions, I just loved it and the dark detailing around the legs and the face just give it that little extra detailing too which I was impressed by. And if a Brontosaurus is not for you they've got a whole collection of dinosaur necklaces I'm seriously thinking about collecting... I'd love the T-Rex next.
Next in my little mini JewelleryBox haul is the two pretty rings on my fore finger. When I received the box I had no idea what was inside so I was really excited to see what they'd picked out. It's like they already know me though because I opened up the box to find this gorgeous sterling silver simple 2mm Band Midi Ring and Laurel Leaf Roman Ring in the overlapping style that I love! Now - on the website they are both listed as toe rings, but I don't really like toe rings so I just kept them as regular rings and I think it works just as well! Especially sitting next to my other two silver rings in similar styles. They are also adjustable so don't worry if it doesn't fit right away, you can adjust it to your size. I love that all my rings match now too!
Last but very not least, I received this gorgeous sterling silver Bracelet with a Freshwater Pearl. I've never been a fan of bracelets for some reason and I tend to stick to my Thomas Sabo one alone, but I've been wearing this constantly the last few days and I love how cute and dainty it looks on my wrist sitting next to my watch or simply alone. Normally bracelets annoy me, due to weightiness and too much movement but this one is the right size for me being light and dainty on the wrist, so it actually doesn't bother me at all!
JewelleryBox.co.uk have some beautiful pieces that I've adored for a really long time. Seeing and experiencing the quality first hand, I'm really impressed with the quality and how pretty the pieces look that I'm already looking for my next piece of jewellery from there! They're exactly as they look on the website and if you love pretty, high quality jewellery made from quality materials, this will be your new go to place. As they say on their website, they are real jewellery at costume jewellery prices without a doubt, and the prices you're paying for real gold and silver you'll be silly to pass it by!
Have you visited the jewellerybox.co.uk website yet? What's your favourite piece from the brand?
I've seen a few posts lately about jewellerybox.co.uk but I have to say yours is my favorite by far!! So in love with the dinosaur necklace and the freshwater pearl bracelet!


When I first saw the cover of A Natural History of Dragons, I knew I was going to love the book. (I know the adage about not judging a book by its cover, but come on, it's gorgeous!) The book blurb only furthered that impression – a Victorian-style memoir by Lady Trent, who has defied convention to follow her passion and become the leading dragon naturalist of her day.
Isabella has been fascinated with the natural world (but especially the dragon family) ever since her cook taught her how to preserve sparklings in vinegar when she was seven. She knows that this hobby can only ever be a passing fancy for a lady of her station, but as luck would have it, she has the opportunity to travel to the mountains of Vystrana on a scientific expedition to study their fabled rock-wyrms. This journey, of course, turns out to be far more arduous than Isabella imagined it would be – involving not just inflamed dragons but complex politics, vengeful gods, and exhilarating discoveries.
Given this premise and that beautiful cover, I had really high expectations for the book, and they ended up being comfortably exceeded. Isabella is a fantastic protagonist – she tries very hard to reconcile her natural curiosity with what's expected of her, and although she doesn't always succeed, it's still endearing. She's no rebel with a twenty-first century sense of morals and propriety; she's a woman of her time that is just very passionate about scientifically studying dragons.
A Natural History of Dragons also has a fascinating world. It is clearly based on 18th-19th century Earth, with Isabella's homeland being analogous to England, and Vystrana similar to Eastern Europe. There are dragons, but they are just natural beasts – there is no "magic"; although the sense of wonder that Marie Brennan with new scientific discoveries is even better than magic. We learn a lot about the world through the political intrigue and the other mysteries in the book, like ancient ruins of a civilisation known as the Draconeans.
Okay, I'm also supposed to be writing about the sequel as well, so I'm going to stop talking about A Natural History of Dragons now.
In The Tropic of Serpents, it has been three years since the very eventful Vystrani expedition, and Isabella is far more confident in her abilities and far less concerned with what the world thinks of her. She jumps at the chance to go on an expedition to the continent of Eriga, home of many little-known varieties of dragons. However, Eriga makes her previous expedition look cushy – strange customs, warring countries (and more politics!), oppressive weather, hundreds of killer species, the list goes on.
All the elements that made the previous book such a success are still present in this one – Isabella continues to be awesome, the writing is beautiful, the worldbuilding is captivating. Eriga is an African analogue (except without as much rampant slavery/exploitation, I think), and there are many cool African-inspired things that this book explores, from stereotypical "big game" hunters to different views on gender and property ownership.
This is not just a series for light, fun reading – Isabella faces some heavy moral dilemmas. She has changed a lot from the first book (mostly as a result of the events of that book) and her character growth is very different. She is not quite as wide-eyed and eager, but her curiosity and competence still make her very compelling. She also takes more of a direct role in events this time; instigating rather than reacting, and you can definitely see her along the path to evolving into the somewhat cantankerous older woman that she is in the forewords.
I really enjoyed the supporting characters in this book; especially Natalie. It's interesting to see Isabella's choices already causing ripples in the freedom of other women, and Natalie had a great story arc from being the woman desperate to escape her expected place to society to becoming more mature and confident (all while inventing a glider!) I also loved the burgeoning respect and friendship between Isabella and Mr. Wilker.
I don't have much to say about the plot except that I do like how the plot always ends up being relevant to major scientific discoveries that Isabella makes. I wish we still lived in a time when science was a new frontier and enthusiasts could make new scientific discoveries and/or invent things easily (okay, I don't actually, because modernity has its benefits, but these books really make me wistful).
I'm terrible at endings, but I'm really excited to see what Isabella does next.
If you made it this far, you might be interested in my interview with author Marie Brennan and giveaway of two sets of both these books.

There are plenty of instances when you're confused about going pregnancy and the future is just one of these occasions.
Women will need to consider a great deal of options they have in regard to childbirth.
Select at your hospital: Where you may deliver is the question that mothers must manage. Pick a hospital that's comfortable for you as you are going to be spending an significant part your time there and that is closest to you. Keep in mind that areas are more affordable than the rest, so be certain before you leap in, that you learn about any reductions. Check with your insurer regarding the availability of the policy and your own insurance.
Classes: These are discussions held physicians and by specialists who teach how you need to prepare about lactation and parenting. Be certain that you attend a minumum of one of them. It is offered by most hospitals as a portion of a bundle or the class. It helps in knowing what it is you are going through you clean your doubts and produce a relation.
Breastfeeding appointment: Lactation experts are supplied in the time of delivery, however find an opinion on, so that you understand what are items you prevent and may eat before your infant suffers and what to expect. It is an excellent change emotionally to get a latch on, and this consultation makes it possible to understand the process.
Scans (Ultrasound): A good expenditure which is going to be turning around your own pocket throughout the whole pregnancy will probably be receiving those scans completed. That is not a component of the insurance policy policy and you may not require all of these. Speak with a physician ahead of time, without assessing whether you need it or not because physicians after years of experience go where they possess a set of guidelines to proceed ask for customization.
Select your kid's & your health care provider: care provider or Your physician is the most significant part your pregnancy preparation because he/she may drive it and then gets the steering wheel of your own pregnancy. Selection of choices nowadays includes physicians(general), midwives (doulas), Obstetricians (Gynaecologists), or even seasoned family and friends. So find with this comes the duty of your kid. You may require assistance with, if possible to get to know each other and determine whether he can assist you.
Vitamins in pregnancy: Plenty of pregnancies become detected on when moms overlook that time of growth of their infant when he desires nutritional supplements and vitamins most later. Take care to not get rid of time and begin before arranging a baby taking nourishment. Then be certain that you get a physician to talk and prescribe the supplements in case you weren't conscious of the pregnancy. Usually acid is prescribed in the first trimester to girls, iron & calcium supplements at some other medicines and the second trimester required to your body from the next trimester.
Yoga or yoga sessions: Not all women can do the exercises that are very same. Some girls are prohibited based on illness and their situation. But if your physician has let you exercise, it's ideal to achieve that. Can endure exactly the exact same but in a pace, but make certain that you don't burn out yourself. Lifting weights is not allowed and certain places. Breathing and yoga exercises are technical for ladies and you'll be able to combine classes for the exact same which can allow you to build a stamina.


Two posts in one here, namely because I don't have enough recommendations to fill two separate posts!
Marty Young is retiring as President (and founder) of the AHWA after five glorious years. I think that deserves an individual recognition.
Talie Helene stepped down as AHWA News Editor recently, but she had an exceptional 2009 (look through the HorrorScope posts from last year to see what I mean).
Juliet Bathory established Sinister Reads and volunteered her heart out for it, which was a great effort.
I'd appreciate other people's thoughts on the outstanding achievements of 2009.
The link to Eye of Fire seems to be broken – a shame because that sounds awesome! Is there another way to view this?
Thanks for alerting me to the dodgy link. I've taken care of business, so download and enjoy!

Nigeria now tracing 6,000 contacts after testing over 2,000 people for coronavirus, The Director-General of the Nigeria Center for Disease Control (NCDC) Chikwe Ihekweazu has announced that the agency is now tracing 6,000 people after carrying out coronavirus tests on over 2,000 suspected cases. Speaking in an interview on Channels Television on Monday, March 30, Chikwe backed President Buhari on the lockdown order he issued in Lagos, Ogun, and Abuja. According to him, the best way to prevent further spread of COVID-19 is for people to limit movement and contact. The NCDC DG said; "We appeal to Nigerians to bear the few weeks of pain to come and let's see whether we can get on top of this. "These weeks will allow our teams to have access to the contacts that are living around Lagos, FCT. We are following over 6,000 contacts of these 111 confirmed cases across these two cities. Every time we have a new case, we add about 50 to 60 contacts that we then have to follow every single day for 14 days."We hope that we can really use this time to buy some time to get ahead of the cases and ultimately see that curve start going down but in the next few days, we still do expect an increase in cases."We have currently tested well over 2000 people, we will update those figures today or tomorrow. We have increased the number of labs in our network to 6. We are activating Abakaliki today. There'd be a 7th lab in our network."We're maximizing the opportunity of the equipment that we have and at the same time rolling out new labs. We're very focused on increasing the testing capacity. We are being boxed down by people who do not require the test." Chikwe who also revealed that the test and result takes between 24 to 48 hours, stated that they are working on bringing it down to 12 hours. At the moment, Lagos has 68 cases; Abuja – 21, Ogun – three, Ekiti – one, Oyo – seven, Osun – two, Enugu – two, Edo – two, Bauchi – two, while Benue, Kaduna and Rivers have one case respectively.

The latest news from the Fraternal Order of Eagles
DRC Director's Report - February 2019
February 5, 2019 By The Fraternal Order of Eagles Diabetes Research Center 0
The Department of Defense office of the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs has awarded DRC member, Ethan Anderson, Associate Professor College of Pharmacy, funding as part of its Peer Reviewed Medical Research Program (PRMRP) Discovery Award competition. The project is: Exploiting the Paracrine-Like Effect of Prohibitin-1 to Treat Septic Cardiomyopathy. The grant will provide $310,000 in total support over a 2-year period.
The project will examine the mitochondrial membrane protein Prohibitin-1 (PHB1) in a model of heart failure that is associated with the often lethal disorder septic shock. Heart failure is associated with impaired cardiac metabolism that limits the energy production that the heart requires for maintaining its contractile function. It is evident that PHB1 may regulate glucose metabolism in the heart, possibly via a unique mechanism in mitochondria. However, the Anderson laboratory has discovered another potential mechanism by which PHB1 could protect the heart.
This application, which was submitted in response to the PRMRP topic area of 'Cardiomyopathy' stems from Anderson's exciting unpublished, preliminary findings where they have identified a previously unknown role for a family of lipid raft-associated proteins, called 'Prohibitins,' during sepsis. Sepsis is a very serious, often fatal clinical condition resulting from an infection or tissue damage. Prohibitins (PHB1, 2) are normally found in the plasma membrane and densely packed in mitochondrial membranes, where they are at the nexus of cellular metabolism and life/death signaling pathways.
The idea behind this proposal stems from the Anderson's lab's exciting recent findings that PHB1 may be acting as a 'brake' on inflammation during sepsis. In other words, this protein may be working in our bodies to try to restore normal organ function during sepsis by blunting the hyper-inflammatory stress that is induced by our immune system. The Anderson laboratory has observed is that when PHB1 is injected into mice experiencing septic shock, it completely restores normal heart function and metabolism, thereby rescuing the mice from death. Therefore, Dr. Anderson proposes to use this protein as a 'blueprint,' to design a new drug for septic cardiomyopathy (and potentially other inflammatory and metabolic disorders) based on their recent discovery of the protein's normal function during sepsis.
DRC Director's Report - March 2019
Brian T. O'Neill, MD, PhD, assistant professor in the Division of Endocrinology in the Department of Internal Medicine and member of the FOEDRC recently published in the journal Diabetes the discovery that FoxO proteins, which are transcription factors that regulate DNA, are the critical regulators of diabetes-related muscle atrophy.
DRC Director's Report - April 2019
In a recent study done by Wei Bao, MD, PhD, assistant professor in the Department of Epidemiology and member of the FOEDRC, his research team found that frequent consumption of fried foods, especially fried chicken and fried fish/shellfish, was associated with a higher risk of death from all causes and cardiovascular disease in women in the United States.
Women with at least one serving per week of fried chicken had a 13% higher risk of death from all causes, and a 12% higher risk of death from cardiovascular disease, when compared with women with no consumption of fried chicken.
DRC Director's Report - December 2019
In individuals with obesity and type 2 diabetes a surplus of energy from too much food or increased glucose and lipids can increase tissue metabolism to damaging rates. This is much like a river overflowing its banks, where water no longer channeled in a controlled way can cause catastrophic damage by being in the wrong places.
DRC Director's Report - January 2019
The new year is always a time to look back and reflect on the many achievements of the prior year. I have been pleased that the Fraternal Order of Eagles has committed continued support to a program that will be overseen by the FOEDRC that seeks to develop new treatments for diabetes and its complications and to bring them ultimately to market. The Bridge to the cure program represents an innovative collaboration and we are excited by what this new year will bring. For this reason, I have chosen to write about one example from a FOEDRC member that recently demonstrated the ability of the compound nicotinamide riboside to restore nerve damage from chemotherapy. We believe that this same mechanism could lead to improved nerve function in people with diabetes. I hope that you will enjoy reading about this exciting advance below.
DRC Director's Report - October 2019
The current epidemic of obesity is a major contributing factor in the rising rate of type 2 diabetes. Recent work from the laboratory of Kamal Rahmouni, PhD, a member of the Fraternal Order of Eagles Diabetes Research Center (FOEDRC), uncovered a novel and important role for a protein complex called the BBSome in the function of key nerve cells called neurons in small a part of the brain known as the hypothalamus that controls food intake, body's fat and glucose metabolism.
DRC Director's Report - May 2019
E. Dale Abel, MD, PhD, was elected as the president-elect of the Endocrine Society in October of 2017. At the annual scientific meeting of the Endocrine Society in New Orleans, Dr. Abel was sworn in as the Endocrine Society's newest president. His one year presidential term began on March 20, 2019.

I'm a huge fan of MagicalTimeBean. SoulCaster and Escape Goat have been a lot of fun both in gameplay and music. What used to be a one man show with Ian Stocker expanded this time around, but he still handles the majority of the soundtrack, with one appearance by Disasterpeace.
I love IMERUAT. For the uninitiated, IMERUAT is a duo comprised of Masashi Hamauzu and vocalist Mina, who banded together after Hamauzu's departure from Square Enix upon completing Final Fantasy XIII. The band combines Hamauzu's signature compositions, heavy with piano and electronic soundscapes, with Mina's whimsical singing style, and the result is nothing less of superb.
While I never really got into Drakengard, NieR has made me a fan of the universe forever. I actually enjoyed the music from the first two Drakengard titles despite not having played them at length, so when Drag-On Chips Music was announced to commemorate ten years of the franchise, I had to have it.
After Oscar Araujo's impressive score for Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, I was excited to see what he'd do with Lords of Shadow 2 given the modern setting. Producer Dave Cox was quick to talk about the soundtrack, telling fans that there would be an electronic edge, as well as hinting that some classic Castlevania melodies may make an appearance.
Square Enix's Re:Birth series pays tribute to Kenji Ito's classic scores, with the first Re:Birth album paying homage to Seiken Densetsu. The second, Re:Birth II, took on the SaGa franchise and went in a different direction, bringing serious synth rock in a fashion not seen since the glory days of the JDK Band, and was very well received.
With the release of Final Fantasy X HD, Square Enix took the opportunity to re-release the Final Fantasy X-2 soundtrack, which has been out of print for some time.
With the Saturday Morning RPG soundtrack released last week, I thought it would be a good time to look into the re-release of Vince DiCola's classic Transformers: The Movie soundtrack that was re-issued by the good folks at Intrada. This soundtrack has a special place in my heart, as it accompanies one of my favorite cartoons growing up, and introduced me to the work of Vince DiCola.
I think this is easily one of the most anticipated soundtracks of 2014 for soundtrack enthusiasts. After MoNACA's amazing work on the soundtrack to NieR, we have all been looking forward to their return visit to the Drag-On Dragoon universe. The entire team is back for more, including vocalist Emi Evans, so I certainly had high hopes.
I admit that I never gave the Final Fantasy X soundtrack much of a chance back when it was released. I played through the game, and to this day, it's one of my least favorite games in the series, so it makes sense that I didn't come back to the soundtrack very often. However, the re-release of the soundtrack in an upgraded "remaster" version to celebrate the game's HD re-release has given me the opportunity to really dig into the music and appreciate it as a stand-alone product, and I must say that I actually like it a lot after listening.


Medicare Parts A and B (Original Medicare) will provide coverage for most of your healthcare needs. However, when it comes to coverage for you prescription medication, Original Medicare is lacking to say the least. That's where Medicare Part D plans come into play.
Coverage for prescription drugs is offered through a Medicare Part D stand-alone plan or through a Medicare Advantage Plan (Part C). Medicare Part D Plans and Medicare Advantage Plans are run by insurance companies or other private companies whom Medicare has approved.
Even if you are not taking any medication when you enroll for Medicare, you should make a drug plan part of your Medicare enrollment. If you do not select a Medicare prescription coverage plan, and a physician prescribes medication for you, later on, Medicare will probably charge you a penalty for late enrollment.
Prior authorization for certain prescriptions.
Quantity limits for the amount of medication you can get at a time.
Step therapy which means you must try lower cost drugs first.
Your Medicare Part D may waive any of these coverage rules if you or your provider request an exception.
If a Medicare Part D drug plan makes any changes involving a drug you are taking, they must provide written notice to you of the change 60 days before the change becomes effective.
Vaccines not covered under Medicare Part B must be covered by Medicare Part D plans if they are necessary to prevent illnesses. Drugs received in a hospital setting such as an emergency department may be considered out-of-pocket costs. You can submit a claim for a refund to your Medicare Part D plan.
You will have to get approval from Medicare Part D if you get your drugs through an automatic refill delivery service. Some Medicare Part D plans require approval for every delivery and some only require approval once a year.
A Medicare Part D stand-alone plan adds drug coverage to traditional Medicare, as well as some other plans approved by Medicare, such as Medicare Cost Plans, Medicare Private-Pay-For-Fee-Service Plans, and Medicare Medical Savings Account Plans. These Medicare Part D options are available through insurance companies and other private companies.
A Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plan (PDP) is a stand-alone plan. A Medicare Part D stand-alone plan only covers prescription drugs. There is no other health care coverage in a stand-alone Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plan (PDP).
A Medicare Advantage Plan with drug coverage (MAPD) includes both prescription drug coverage and other health care coverage. Most Medicare Advantage plans cover prescription costs.
It's important to remember that Medicare drug coverage is a supplemental part of your health coverage. These plans are designed specifically to work in conjunction with any other Medicare or health coverage that you may have. Here's how Medicare drug coverage works with other insurance plans and programs.
If you have drug coverage from an employer, they will notify you annually to let you know about the credibility of your drug coverage program.
If you have a COBRA plan that includes creditable drug coverage, you will be able to join a Medicare plan during a special enrollment period for your prescriptions when your COBRA ends.
Prescription drug coverage cannot be sold with Medigap policies anymore. However, if you are a current subscriber to a Medigap policy with drug coverage, you can keep it. Your Medigap insurance plan will need to remove your drug coverage and adjust your premiums when you sign up with a prescription plan with Medicare.
Medicare will pay for your drugs when you join one of the Medicare Part D plans. If you do not join a drug plan, Medicare enrolls you to make sure they cover you. You can change your Medicare drug plan at any time. Most Medicaid recipients pay a little for their covered drugs.
Those who reside at a nursing home receive full Medicaid coverage, and there is no charge. People who live in an assisted living, or an adult living facility, or in a residential home will pay a minimum copayment for prescriptions.
If you receive SSI benefits from Medicaid that pays your Medicare premiums, you must join a Medicare plan to pay for your prescriptions. You are automatically eligible to get Extra Help to pay for your prescription costs. To assure that medications are covered, Medicare enrolls a person in one of the Medicare Part D plans if they do not enroll themselves.
Each state has its own State Pharmaceutical Assistance Program (SPAP) that coordinates with Medicare Part D plans. Extra coverage is offered by some states, and some have a different program that helps pay medical costs.
The pharmacies in long-term care facilities contract with Medicare Part D plans. If you enter, live at, or leave a long-term care facility, you will have an opportunity to select or change your Medicare drug plan.
Medicare Part D plans are an option for you if you get HUD housing assistance. If you are eligible for Extra Help you will not lose your housing assistance. They may, however, adjust the amount of your housing assistance according to the costs of your prescriptions.
You can enroll in a Medicare Part D Plan if you get food stamps. Your food stamp benefits can decrease if you are eligible for Extra Help with drug costs. You could lose your food stamp benefits if you are near the eligibility cutoff amount.
Private insurers, including Marketplace and shop plans, who offer drug coverage, are required every year to determine if their drug coverage is credible and provide that information to you in writing. The following insurance types are considered credible. In most cases, you can keep your current coverage if you have one of these types of insurance.

WHERE, when you aren't looking at it, is a subatomic particle? A quantum physicist would probably answer: sort of all over the place. An unobserved particle is a wisp of reality, a shimmer of existence – there isn't a good metaphor for it, because it is vague both by definition and by nature. Until you do have a peek. Then it becomes a particle proper, it can be put into words, it is a thing with a place.
That picture seems utterly absurd. Yet many, many experiments exploring the microscopic realm over the best part of a century have reinforced the conclusion that when we're not paying attention, the world is fuzzy and undecided. Only by looking at things, observing them, measuring them, do we make them recognisably "real".
Einstein was unimpressed, pointedly asking whether the moon is not there if no one is looking at it. But then Einstein was always raising pesky objections to quantum theory. For many physicists since it has been a case of swallowing any philosophical qualms. The maths works, there's no real alternative, so get on with it. Shut up and calculate.
Except that, just maybe, there is now an alternative. A new twist on standard quantum theory promises not only to rid reality of its observer problem, but also to answer a host of unresolved issues in cosmology, from the workings of black holes to the nature of dark energy to why time flows in only one direction. "It has the potential of providing a very plausible way out of the problems at stake," says quantum physicist Angelo Bassi at the University of Trieste in Italy. Is it for real?
Quantum theory is the most successful, peerlessly predictive theory of basic reality ever devised. Its current formulation dates from the mid-1920s, when experiments had revealed that things such as electrons could perform diffraction and other feats suggesting they were in many places at the same time, like a wave. If you observed them directly, however, they had a single, definite position like a particle (see "A central mystery").
The Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger devised an equation describing this equivocal behaviour, showing it could be represented by a mathematical entity later known as the wave function. The wave function can't tell you for sure what you will find out about a quantum object when you observe it – whether it's over here, over there, spinning this way, spinning that way. Instead it gives you up-to-date, thoroughly reliable odds on which of many possibilities you will see if you take many measurements of identical objects.
So much for the maths. But which of those possible states is a particle actually in, pre-measurement? The most popular answer, formulated around the time Schrödinger produced his equation, is known as the Copenhagen interpretation. Named after the home city of one of its pioneers, Niels Bohr, it says that a particle's state before observation is fundamentally, intrinsically, insurmountably uncertain. If the wave function says a particle could be here and there, then it really is here and there, however hard that is to fathom in terms of everyday experience. Only the act of looking at a quantum object "collapses" its wave function, jolting it from a shadowy netherworld into definite reality.
Collapse: Has quantum theory's greatest mystery been solved?
Our best theory of reality says things only become real when we look at them. Understanding how the universe came to be requires a better explanation

That was hard to stomach, not least for Schrödinger. To illustrate his concern, he famously imagined a cat sealed inside a box along with a radioactive substance. The quantum wave function for the substance gives you a 50-50 chance an atom will decay within a certain time, in the process detonating a canister of lethal poison.
So, asked Schrödinger, before you look in the box, is the cat alive and dead at the same time? Copenhagen says yes: until you look, there both has and hasn't been a radioactive decay, and the cat's fate is similarly undefined. The Hungarian physicist Eugene Wigner later posed an even more profound question. What finally crystallises the cat's alive or dead state – human consciousness? Did you kill the cat?
Surely that can't be right. Yet in 2011, an informal poll of 33 physicists attending a conference on "Quantum physics and the nature of reality" found that over 40 per cent accepted the Copenhagen view, while the others could not agree on an alternative. Theorist Sean Carroll called it perhaps the "most embarrassing" poll in physics.
For Daniel Sudarsky, a physicist at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) in Mexico City, it is all the more embarrassing when you start thinking outside the cat's box and consider the universe at large. According to cosmologists, the early universe was a featureless blob, into which particles began to materialise at random. Particles that just happened to materialise closer together began to clump together through gravity – forming the seeds of today's stars and galaxies.
All well and good, except that there were no primordial observers to collapse the wave functions of those initial particles and create their uneven distributions in the first place. Believe the most popular interpretation of quantum theory, and the star-filled universe that we live in could never have existed.
It was this conundrum that spurred Sudarsky into action in the early 2000s. "I wanted to describe the universe 13 billion years ago, when there certainly weren't any sentient beings, unless you want to invoke God," he says. "Which we don't."
Alternatives to the Copenhagen picture fall broadly into three categories. One is that the wave function picture is not a complete description of reality. Decades of rigorous experiments have shown, however, that any additional bells and whistles would have to operate faster than light, breaking perhaps the most fundamental law of physics. A second possibility is that wave function collapse doesn't happen at all; every possible outcome of an observation actually comes to pass in its own separate universe. This is the "many worlds" interpretation (see "Who killed Schrödinger's cat?").
The many worlds theory also creates almost as many philosophical problems as it solves, so Sudarsky began with a third option: that wave functions are real things and do indeed collapse – but randomly, by themselves. "Something like a measurement occurs, but without anybody actually measuring," says Sudarsky. It doesn't need a human observer, so this process is known as an objective collapse.
Tweaking Schrödinger
Objective collapse would be rare, but catching. Wait for a single particle's wave function to collapse and you could be waiting longer than the age of the universe. Group many particles together, however, and the chance swiftly escalates. With a few billion particles, you might only have to wait a few seconds for one wave function to collapse – and for that to set the rest off.
Objective collapse theory was first put forward in the 1970s by Philip Pearle at Hamilton College in New York, and later refined by Giancarlo Ghirardi and Tulio Weber at the University of Trieste and Alberto Rimini at the University of Pavia, Italy. Their goal was to tweak Schrödinger's equation so that the wave function evolves naturally, without an observer, from a mix of states into a single, well-defined state. To do so, they added a couple of extra mathematical terms: a non-linear term, which rapidly promotes one state at the expense of others, and a stochastic term, which makes that happen at random.
At least superficially, these tweaks can explain quite a lot that's inexplicable about quantum theory. We never see ghostly quantum effects in large objects such as cats or the moon because, with so many interacting particles, their wave functions readily collapse or else never form. And in the early universe, as Sudarsky and physicist-philosopher Elias Okon, also at UNAM, showed a decade ago, it was only a matter of time before the wave functions of matter collapsed into an uneven distribution from which stars and galaxies could form, God or no God (see "How did it all begin?").
Objective collapse theory has an intuitive explanation for the observer problem, too. The human body has upwards of one billion billion billion atoms, all of which contain yet more constituent particles. An observer meddling with even a carefully isolated quantum apparatus will inevitably become quantum-entangled with it, and their collapsed wave function then causes any uncollapsed wave function in the vicinity to collapse too.
Yet the idea didn't catch on. For a start, it's only an "effective" theory. It states that wave functions collapse randomly and provides a mathematical description, but doesn't explain why. There are possible explanations – theorist Roger Penrose at the University of Oxford has suggested that gravity drives the process, for instance – but no consensus. The tweaked Schrödinger equation was also not relativistic; it did not work for particles moving at close to the speed of light, a basic requirement of any modern theory.
That began to change around five years ago, when theorists including Daniel Bedingham of the University of Oxford and Roderich Tumulka of Rutgers University in New Jersey formulated the first relativistic objective collapse models. Still the idea had few takers. For Tumulka, that's because persuading physicists to go for any option besides the Copenhagen interpretation is like Copernicus trying to persuade people in the 16th century to give up Ptolemy's Earth-centric view of the universe. "The difference is that Ptolemy's theory made perfect sense. It just happened not to be right," he says. "But Copenhagen quantum mechanics is incoherent, and thus is not even a reasonable theory to begin with."
Work that Sudarsky and his collaborators have been doing recently might begin to turn the tide. It shows that objective collapse might explain not only how structure began to appear in the universe, but a host of other cosmological problems, too.
Take black holes. These monsters, created by Einstein's theory of gravity, general relativity, crush everything that comes their way – light, matter, information. For nigh on 40 years, physicists have been especially perplexed by the information bit. If all the information about a particle is contained within its wave function, and the only thing that can collapse a wave function is – according to the Copenhagen school, at least – an observer, who is that observer inside a black hole?
No problem in objective collapse theory: no observer is required. Last year, Sudarsky and Okon calculated that the rate of random wave function collapse given by their theory agrees with the information loss rate predicted for black holes (Foundations of Physics, vol 44, p 114).
Spontaneous wave function collapse makes stuff, too. When a wave function disappears, something new appears in its place – a definite position, a piece of information, a tick of energy. Each collapse can only generate a minuscule amount of energy, so we wouldn't notice it on any everyday scale. But in the universe as a whole, this energy creation could be rather significant – and perhaps solve the biggest cosmological conundrum of all.
That conundrum is dark energy, the unknown entity that observations since the 1990s have indicated is accelerating the expansion of the universe. Standard quantum theory supplies what seems at first glance a ready source of dark energy. Quantum uncertainty means that even the nothing of free space has a small chance of containing something, in the form of energy. But work out how much of this energy there should be, and you come up with way too much. About 10120 times too much.
Together with theorists Thibaut Josset and Alejandro Perez at the University of Marseille in France, Sudarsky showed earlier this year that energy creation through objective collapse might provide a closer fit. A big caveat is that the process would be compatible only with a slightly modified form of general relativity; accept that, and you're in business. Or not quite. "Our rough calculations came surprisingly close," says Sudarsky. "But with the wrong sign." Their dark energy was pulling the universe together, not causing it to fly apart (arxiv.org/abs/1604.04183).
A big detail, you might say. But the work deliberately ignored the collapse effects of myriad energetic particles whizzing about at near light speed in the early universe, as theories of relativistic objective collapse simply aren't refined enough yet. Take those into account, says Sudarsky, and "things could come out all right". In a more speculative paper this year, he and Okon also claim that objective collapse can explain why the universe started in a state of exceptionally low disorder, or entropy, that has been increasing ever since. This continuous entropy increase matters to us – it is intimately connected to what we perceive as the one-way flow of time (arxiv.org/abs/1602.07006).
Bassi, who works independently on objective collapse models, thinks these ideas are among the best out there. "There is much more work to be done, to check whether the proposed resolution really works," he says. "But the starting point is encouraging."
But what of the doubters? Matt Leifer, a quantum theorist at Chapman University in Orange, California, acknowledges that objective collapse might untie some philosophical knots in quantum theory, but is sceptical. "I am glad there are people working on the models seriously, but they have always seemed a little ad hoc to me," he says. He believes that treating wave functions as real entities, rather than just things that represent our state of knowledge about the quantum world, is in general "the wrong place to start".
Antony Valentini, a theorist at Clemson University in South Carolina, is more positive. "Too much work in quantum foundations is cut off from the big questions facing physics and cosmology," he says. "This work is still at an exploratory stage, but the ideas are interesting and plausible. I wish more people were looking at this sort of thing."
The test of any good theory is, of course, experiment. The reason we believe standard quantum theory is its ability to explain, at least mathematically, experiments showing quantum objects behaving like waves in one situation and particles in another. These effects have now been observed with objects far larger than single particles – the record, set in 2013 at the University of Vienna in Austria, involves complex molecules some 20 million times the mass of the electron.
If Sudarsky is right, there is a natural size limit, after which objects begin to collapse spontaneously, removing the wave-like behaviour. Common sense tells us this threshold must be far smaller than that of everyday observations. "It should occur much before I send a cat through the apparatus," says Sudarsky. More exact experiments should be able to test the predictions of various objective collapse models. Hendrik Ulbricht at the University of Southampton in the UK thinks such tests could be performed within a decade, by making silica beads as massive as 20 billion electrons pass through and interfere at "slits" made of laser light.
An alternative test is to look for the excess energy that objective collapse theories predict should arise from spontaneous wave function collapse. Though near infinitesimal here on Earth, this should still be present as an all-pervading background noise that would disrupt the most sensitive experiments, like static muddying an analogue radio broadcast. In March this year, a team in Italy, including Bassi, cooled a vibrating cantilever to within a whisker of absolute zero and found deviations in its regular to-ing and fro-ing only from the tiny remaining thermal energy, nothing more. That established an upper bound on objective collapse noise, ruling out one particular incarnation, but leaving most intact (Physical Review Letters, vol 116, p 090402).
For Sudarsky, this newfound testability provides an impetus to make objective collapse theory even more persuasive. It's an uphill battle to win hearts and minds in the face of one of the most successful theories ever devised. But then, understanding why the simple act of looking appears to create the world around us would be a big prize, says Sudarsky. "It's pushing us to solve one of the biggest mysteries we've had for a long time," he says.

Subject Access Requests following Dawson-Damer v Taylor Wessing
This court of appeal case, handed down on 16th February, concerns a subject access request ('SAR') made under s.7 of the Data Protection Act 1998 ('DPA'). It has the effect of limiting the grounds upon which data controllers may rely as a basis for refusing to comply with a SAR.
Mrs. Ashley Dawson-Damer, and her two adopted children, Piers Dawson-Damer and Adelicia Dawson-Damer, sent SARs to the respondent, Taylor Wessing LLP, which was acting for the trustee of a number of Bahamian trusts of which Mrs. Dawson-Damer is a beneficiary. Taylor Wessing did not provide the requested personal data on the grounds that: (i) it was covered by legal privilege; (ii) doing so would involve a disproportionate effort; and (iii) the appellant's motive was to use the information in legal proceedings. The judge at first instance accepted Taylor Wessing's arguments and dismissed Mrs. Dawson-Damer's application. Mrs. Dawson-Damer appealed the decision.
The Court of Appeal decision
Overruling the judge at first instance, the Court of Appeal decided the following:
The legal professional privilege exemption under DPA Sch.7(10) should be construed narrowly and only applies to documents which carry legal professional privilege for the purposes of English law. The exemption does not extend to other documents that are not disclosable to a beneficiary of a trust under trust law principles, nor documents subject to other non-disclosure protections, such as those under foreign laws.
The respondent failed to show that complying with the request would involve a disproportionate effort, since all it had done was review its files. Data controllers cannot avoid complying with a SAR by arguing that the work involved would be expensive or time consuming.
A data subject's intention to use personal data for the purpose of litigation proceedings cannot be used by a data controller to avoid complying with a SAR. There is nothing in the DPA that limits the purposes for which a data subject may request his or her personal data, nor anything that provides data controllers with the option of refusing to comply with a SAR on the basis of the data subject's motive.
The £10 maximum fee chargeable for dealing with a SAR may give a misleading impression as to the lengths data controllers must go to in order to fulfil their obligations. DPA s.7 falls very much in favour of the data subject, with a presumption firmly in favour of disclosure. This Court of Appeal judgement confirms that the legal professional privilege exemption is narrow, that the 'disproportionate effort' bar is high, and the data subject's motivation is not a ground for withholding information. In the words of Lady Justice Arden 'The cost of compliance is the price data controllers pay for processing data'.
Organisations should prepare themselves for the fact that dealing with a SAR may well require a significant effort. They should also be mindful of the fact that when the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) takes effect in May 2018, the period for compliance with a SAR will be reduced from 40 days to 30, and that they will no longer be able to charge a fee.

Q: Can I write an alias that takes an argument? I have some remote machines, where I need to compile some source code.
What I normally do is write an alias, that says something like:
alias g++='g++ `pkg-config --cflags opencv --libs opencv`'

Then when I go to compile remotely, I would do g++ -o test test.cpp.
For whatever reason, Ubuntu wont let me do that. Instead, Ubuntu works, when I do:
g++ file.cpp -o file `pkg-config --cflags opencv --libs opencv`

But this means I cannot write an alias for g++. Is there a way I can write an alias that will take an argument? what should I do?

A: TL;DR: Use command g++ in a shell function instead of g++ in an alias.
As 6.6 Aliases in the Bash reference manual says:

There is no mechanism for using arguments in the replacement text, as
  in csh. If arguments are needed, a shell function should be used
  (see Shell Functions).

Although an alias will expand even when it appears in front of additional text, aliases do not themselves support positional parameters (i.e., command-line arguments), so you cannot use an alias to carry out your present task. That is, you cannot use an alias to run a command with user-specified arguments followed by additional arguments.
As you've found, you can use an alias to make g++ file.cpp -o file run:
g++ `pkg-config --cflags opencv --libs opencv` file.cpp -o file

But not to make g++ file.cpp -o file run this command:
g++ file.cpp -o file `pkg-config --cflags opencv --libs opencv`

So, if you want that, you will probably want to use a shell function:
g++ () {
    command g++ `pkg-config --cflags opencv --libs opencv` "$@"
}

You can:

*

*Run that on the command-line, and it will be defined as long as the current shell is running, within that shell instance only, or

*add it to your ~/.bashrc file, and start a new shell or run . ~/.bashrc.

This defines function called g++. Since, unlike aliases, functions can call themselves, I've used the command builtin to prevent undesired recursion. command g++ calls the external g++ command. "$@" expands to all the command-line arguments passed to the function.
In the very rare case that g++ really needed to be an alias, you could "cheat" and define it as an alias to a function (just as you may define an alias to any other command). You could do that either by defining the function first or by defining it each time in the alias (as George suggests). However, there is no need for you to do this; a function will work fine.
Of course, you might not always want g++ to have the output of pkg-config --cflags opencv --libs opencv passed to it. So you might want to put the alias definition in a file and source it only when you want it. If your definition is in g++-fn.sh in your home directory, then to enable the function you can run:
. ~/g++-fn.sh

And to disable the function (no matter how it was defined), you can run:
unset -f g++

I should add that, for anything but tiny or otherwise trivial programs, you should at least consider using make (instead of invoking g++ yourself with the output of pkg-config each time), as steeldriver has suggested.

A:
Then when I go to compile remotely

That's your main problem. The aliases defined in local config file or local interactive shell, won't work on remote system. Define the alias in your remote machine's ~/.bashrc and it will work then.
A better approach would be to define a function, as Eliah suggested. But you would still have to define it on the remote machine, as with an alias.

The historical past of formal mail service in the USA dates back to 1639, when the state court docket of Massachusetts established the primary government-authorized dropoff level for mail. That location was a privately held enterprise, a tavern in Boston. In these days, it was fairly frequent for native shops and taverns for use as mail drop factors. Residents grew to become fairly accustomed to inquiring for his or her mail in that method. If somebody was choosing up a bundle and seen one thing marked for a neighbor or pal, that particular person would most likely take their pal's mail and make a private supply Liteblue USPS login.
By 1774, the colonists had reached their restrict with the English crown's dictation. Frustration over the postal service was one of many lesser identified points that prompted the colonists to hunt their very own impartial authorities. In 1775, the Continental Congress created a Submit Workplace Division and appointed Benjamin Franklin as the primary Postmaster Common of that group.
In 1982, U.S. postage stamps have been deemed a kind of "postal product" quite than a type of taxation. Since then, the first value of working the postal system has been paid for via the sale of "postal merchandise" and providers, quite than tax revenues. Moreover, the assorted courses of U.S. mail (for instance, top quality, parcel put up, and so forth.) are every anticipated to cowl their very own prices with their very own "postal product" gross sales. Successfully which means that every class of mail is sort of a stand-alone entity that should, on the finish of every 12 months, display a web revenue of zero. This explains why, when postal will increase are levied, the proportion of change is probably not uniform from one class to the following. It's because the put up workplace examines every class of mail by itself, and solely will increase charges as a lot as is required to keep up a web revenue of zero.
In the present day, the U.S. Postal Service delivers to greater than 141 million companies and houses every day. It's the solely U.S. authorities sanctioned monopoly, and it operates very effectively despite having no competitors. From its humble origins in a Boston tavern within the 17th century, America Postal Service has gone on to turn into the group everyone knows and depend on every single day to ship our mail.
