What exactly do you provide?
We specialise in the design and manufacture of the structural timber frame element of your building. By using mastered traditional techniques we produce exceptionally crafted timber frames which many others try to imitate.
What this includes is the following; Drawings, manufacture of frame, supply of timber, delivery, assembly & fixings. We can also help with planning drawings and conforming with current building regulation standards.
To summarise, what we provide is Carpentry, not Joinery.
We believe the design of the timber frame is key to the overall look and function of the building, therefore recommend you get us involved very early in the design process. If not already supplied by an architect, we can also supply drawings for footing plans, wall sections & roof sections. We consider the design of these details key to the overall finish and quite often will supply them inclusive to the frame plans.
The average cost of an oak frame is not calculated by the typical square metre system used for estimation. This is because the variation in detail can be huge. Typically the cost is proportional to the volume of timber and quantity and complexity of the joints. A simple frame may be just 10% of your budget, yet a fully featured frame may be as much as 40%.
What about the other building services?
There are many other trades that you will need to consider to complete your build, such as; bricklayers, general carpenters, roofers, plumbers, electricians etc. Depending upon whether you are self-building or would prefer a 'turn-key' package, we can recommend tradespeople to help you see the project through.
Be realistic: If you are planning a build that requires planning permission, you will need to plan ahead. Typically our schedule is booked up for six+ months ahead, so calling in January hoping for us to start in April may not be an option. We'd suggest anyone that can help at extreme short notice may not be the right person for the job. There are several factors that will delay progress, please read the process section below.
Be organised: If you are planning to project manage yourselves, get all your trades primed in order to streamline the process, the sooner an oak frame is closed from the elements, the better.
I called/emailed but you have not got back to me recently?
Please bear in mind that we get quite a few enquiries, some serious, some just asking advice and others simply going through the motions of a fantasy! We endeavour to communicate as best we can, but it is impossible for us to distinguish between serious enquiries and pipe-dreamers. So apologies if you are awaiting a call/email, please get back in touch.
Please also consider that a properly planned large frame may take up to a year (on average!) from getting in touch to us having a suitable slot for production.
Typically we arrange a meeting to assess the site and discuss ideas / look at drawings you may already have. We then supply (free of charge) some preliminary isometric drawings of a potential frame design. We offer you a chance to feedback on the design and modify accordingly.
At this stage we can accurately price to the design we have given thus far. We will provide variations on design and price to allow you to get an idea of how costs changes with detail.
Depending on the scale of your project, you may need to have structural calculations made for beam sizes. This is a requirement of building control. This is an additional service which we can supply, the cost of which depends upon the size of the job. Though we use experience to judge timber sizes, sometimes the structural engineer will increase sizes which will have a small impact on overall cost..
We will have a final meeting where the design is modified to suit any structural changes and further aesthetic tweaks. The design is finalized and the timber placed on order, the timber has to be cut to a precise cutting list, so expect to wait a little while.
Depending upon the size of the frame, this process may take up to 2 months. If it is a large frame we will bring in extra help so that the frame is cut in good time, limiting shrinkage before being assembled. Assuming the footings are ready, raising only typically takes a few days.
What if I need to delay?
Don't worry, being a small business, we are happy to work to your schedule without any penalties. Though it may not be possible to delay to your exact time-scale as we may have allocated time in the calendar for other frames.
How does the timber look?
Timber comes to us from the sawmill with a rough band sawn finish, with the odd scuff and ding where they have been handled. The timber is quite soft and susceptible to damage. The majority of customers prefer the this 'raw' finish but also arrange for it to be cleaned when the frame has been raised (see options below).
If you are after a much cleaner finish then machine planing is the way to go. Planing brings out the grain and leaves a very clean, almost clinical finish. This would be done before the frame is raised, but is still vulnerable to staining. This type of finish is very typical in joinery. There are variations on this theme; such as having the whole frame hand planed or go one better and get it hewn!.
Tannin staining is likely to occur after a frame has been erected and is exposed to rain. Water draws out the tannic acid from the oak, surface dust and small checks, which subsequently reacts (particularly with traces of mild steel) and causes dark brown staining. This tends to get worse over time and lower down the structure where the concentrations increase. Exterior surfaces will in time clean up in the open air (UV degradation, weathering). Special care to protect bricks and mortar must be taken as these porous surfaces are very hard to clean. More on finishes here.
How can I clean the frame?
We do our best to bring the frame to you as clean as possible. Any heavy staining or marking is removed when being cut in the workshop. Light pencil marks, feint ink lines and some required carpentry marks may be visible. It is very likely the frame will get further marks, dirt, water staining etc whilst the build is in progress. We would recommend cleaning the frame at the right stage within the build process. Note: we do not provide a cleaning service.
If the frame has light water marks and a few stains, just washing with soapy water is very effective. This does require considerable 'elbow grease' so roll up those sleeves! We have found that pressure washing is also very effective, though can fluff up the surface slightly.
Similar to sand blasting, but much more subtle. Using crushed limestone as the medium it allows the gentle removal of marks, staining etc without turning the timber into driftwood! This can leave the surface whiter due to residual amounts of lime dust. *warning* – do not oil the frame afterwards as this may cause a reaction making the oak go very dark.
As above but really expensive and not really that effective. Very good for light conservation work.
Oxallic acid is a liquid that is diluted and painted on the surface. The acid neutralizes staining and ink lines/carpentry marks etc. This is time consuming, but does not damage the surface texture. This is extremely toxic to the human body, use with caution.
We have been experimenting with steam cleaning. This appears to be effective on tannin stains, but tends not to unify the colour as effectively as a more abrasive method.
Though aggressive, belt sanding the face of timbers will no doubt remove stains and marks etc, but does leave a dull finish and is very time consuming.
Of course a combination of the above options may give you the results you desire. We have a full selection of sample finishes at the workshop.
Various oils are available, such as linseed oil, tung oil or preferably a blend of oils know as 'hard oil' or 'danish oil'. Oiling the timber will provide excellent protection from future staining and make for easier cleaning. Though, depending upon the blend and brand, will alter the colour of the oak. It tends to yellow the timber slightly, especially if linseed oil is used.
It is possible to apply a wax by hand to a smooth finish (planed), but very time consuming. Any lightweight furniture wax would be suitable. The alternative is a liquid based wax, such as carnauba wax. When painted on, this wax is absorbed and dries to a neutral finish.
Go on, paint it all gloss blue!
Will it get attacked by woodworm?
Oak, Sweet Chestnut, Larch, Red Cedar are just a few varieties of timber that are naturally resilient and durable to fungal and insect attack. This is why there are tens of thousands of oak frames standing from the medieval period. Though typically the sapwood and bark are not durable, especially when green. When the frame dries out, it makes the timber very much less attractive as food and subsequently any guests leave. Sometimes our timber contains live larvae, we will try to orient the timber in order to hide any holes. We tend to advise against nasty chemicals being applied to the timbers surface, after all you are likely to rub it onto your hands etc at some point. Please speak to us about treatment if you are concerned, though an exposed timber frame house may not be for you! The forestry commission have a great website about it here.
Someone down the pub said when it shrinks it will pull itself apart! we hope not!
Typically the timber will shrink by 10% across the grain at a rate of 1 year per inch. This means an 8" (200mm) square timber will take about 8 years to fully dry. Though in a dry modern house you may be able to half this figure. The effects will be dependent upon how the building envelope has been designed. For example, if a plasterboard wall butts up to the side of a post, expect a gap to appear and after a few years be as much as 10mm. There are ways these visual effects can be minimised, please speak to us when designing your frame.
It's also worth bearing in mind the timber does not shrink perfectly uniformly, it may twist, warp and check (split) in completely unpredictable ways. Part of the framers craft is to orientate the timber with all these factors in mind when making the frame at the workshop.

PRESS RELEASE: 2019 KRESGE ARTIST FELLOWSHIP APPLICATION CYCLE IS OPEN
Metro Detroit Literary and Visual Artists Invited to Apply for
$25,000 Fellowships and $5,000 Emerging Artist Awards
Guidelines, Resources, and Support Available Now; Online Application opens November 30
DETROIT, MI – NOVEMBER 1, 2018 – Metropolitan Detroit artists are invited to apply for a 2019 Kresge Artist Fellowship. Fellowships are funded by The Kresge Foundation and administered by Kresge Arts in Detroit at the College for Creative Studies.
Thursday, November 1, 2018: Application Guidelines Available
Friday, November 30, 2018: Online Application Opens
Thursday, January 17, 2019 by 11:59 p.m. EST: Application Deadline
Now in its eleventh year, the program will award 18 fellowships – nine in Literary Arts and nine in Visual Arts – to artists living and working in metropolitan Detroit (Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb counties).
"For a decade now, Kresge Artist Fellowships have put a spotlight on artists who've received too little attention, accelerated the careers of artists gaining renown and further elevated some of the most widely recognized cultural producers in metropolitan Detroit," says Wendy Lewis Jackson, a managing director of Kresge's Detroit Program. "We look forward to a group of 2019 Fellows that once again makes clear the breadth and depth of our artists and their collective contributions to our community."
Artists working in the following disciplines are eligible to apply for a 2019 Kresge Artist Fellowship:
Arts Criticism
Interdisciplinary Work
Book Art New Media
Ceramics Painting
Collage Photography
Drawing Performance Art
Fiber Printmaking
Installation Video Art
Metalwork Interdisciplinary Work
Kresge Artist Fellowships are no-strings-attached $25,000 awards. Fellowships also include a professional practice program, designed and delivered by Creative Many Michigan, which includes workshops, seminars, and networking events. Artists at all career stages are invited to apply.
"It was so special to receive the fellowship," says Dunya Mikhail, 2013 Literary Arts Fellow. "It helped me pay a loan and that relieved me for a while and freed up time for me to focus more on my writing." She adds, "I didn't get it in the first time I tried. Never stop trying…"
Like Mikhail, Sydney G. James, a 2017 Visual Arts Fellow, didn't receive the fellowship on her first attempt. "Not winning the fellowship the first time round was probably the best thing for me. It was one of many catalysts that forced me to push harder and strive to do and be greater."
Fellowships are awarded on the basis of a demonstrated track record of artistic achievements and high-quality work, the potential to grow and advance careers during the fellowship period, and the potential to reflect, enhance or impact communities within metropolitan Detroit.
In addition, two Gilda Awards, $5,000 no-strings-attached prizes solely for emerging artists, will also be awarded – one in Literary Arts and one in Visual Arts.
Gilda Awards recognize artists who are early in their careers, are gaining momentum, and who demonstrate exceptional potential through creative risk-taking and pushing the boundaries of their chosen art form. The awards are named in honor of Gilda Snowden (1954 – 2014), who was one of the 18 inaugural artists to receive a Kresge Artist Fellowship in 2009. Snowden served as Interim Chair and Professor of Fine Arts at the College for Creative Studies, where she taught painting for more than 30 years.
Gilda Awards are chosen from the pool of Kresge Artist Fellows applicants. There is no separate application for the Gilda Awards.
Artists are strongly encouraged to attend the applicant workshops, which are designed to help artists submit competitive applications to Kresge Arts in Detroit as well as other sources of support for their creative careers. Visit kresgeartsindetroit.org for full details and to RSVP.

When's The Amazon Kindle Fire Coming to the UK?
I want it NOW! I wanted an iPad in the US, but I still wasn't prepared to shell out $499 for the pleasure of owning one. Now the Kindle Fire at $199 is way better!
No doubt here in good old England we'll be the last to get it. Bummer.
This post was written on the 13th July, in anticipation of our holiday to Miami and the Florida Keys in September. By the time it posts, we'll be on the plane, en-route to two weeks of bliss hopefully. I'm also hoping that by the time this posts, I'll still be pregnant. It's early days, so there's no point telling anybody just yet. The funny thing is, by the time our hols comes round, I'll have probably forgotten that I wrote this post in the first place.
Oh well, be good whilst I'm gone, and if TTG lets me, I may tweet some pictures. Ciao for now!
What Is There To Do In Miami? Any Suggestions?
TTG and I are off to Miami next week, and although I've made a list of things to do, none of them seem that exciting. Is there any place that you guys can recommend? Any fun parks etc?
Except for a handful of big names, authors don't make that much money. The recent explosion of pirate and file sharing sites has made it even more difficult to make a living as a writer. I am fortunate that I have a second career to fall back on. Alors, I have returned to my old job. Taking into account my current work load, I doubt I will finish another story.
…but it was fun while it lasted!
It made me a bit sad, I haven't bought any of her books for years, however, she was one of the first EC authors I ever read.


The macaron is made in many interesting flavors in France. The filling is what is most often varied, but the macaron batter is also made with different flavorings. Some fillings to consider: raspberry jam, lemon curd, chocolate ganache, buttercreams of all kinds, dulce de leche. To flavor your batter try rose water, espresso powder, mint extract, grated citrus rind, or cocoa powder.
I reviewed many macaron recipes. My version is most indebted to the recipes of Jacques Pepin and Martha Stewart. This recipe will make only a few macarons- 8, maybe 12. The recipe can easily be doubled or tripled. Testers at the Dodo found these to be more delicious even than the macarons we ate a few weeks ago in Paris.
These have a filling that is tres French: Marron, or chestnut. I can't wait for you to taste them!
Put the almond meal and powdered sugar into a blender or food processor to break up any clumps of sugar or almond.
Whip the egg white until it foams; add the smidge of salt and continue to beat until soft peaks form. Add, slowly, the 4 teaspoons of granulated sugar. Beat until fairly stiff. Add the vanilla bean seeds.
Fold the almond and sugar mixture into the egg white. Mound or pipe the mixture onto a parchment covered baking sheet. Make them one to two inches wide; leaving about 2 to 3 inches between each mound. If there is a little peak on the top, smooth it down with a wet finger.
Let these trays sit for at least ten minutes, while you heat the oven to 300 degrees. Bake them for 12 to 15 minutes. You do not want them to become crisp inside. They could take as long as 20 minutes, depending on your oven and the size of your mounds.
Let them cool on the baking sheets. When completely cool, carefully lift them with an offset spatula. Pair them up into likely looking couples, and make the filling.
Blend the butter with an electric mixer until it is fluffy and pale. Add the chestnut cream and vanilla and continue to beat until it is well mixed and sufficiently light in texture.
Put a daub of the butter cream between the two mated macarons and you also will regret nothing!
You may use blanched almonds or almond slices, ground up to a powder in the food processor, or you may use an almond flour that is pre-ground; like Bob's Red Mill, or Trader Joe's Almond Meal.
To get vanilla bean seeds out of the pod, you must have a soft and flexible vanilla bean. If yours are stiff, let them soak in a shallow pool of vodka or bourbon for a few nights. If you like, you may join them. After this period of debauchery, your vanilla pods should be able to be split lengthwise with the tip of a sharp knife. Then, use the knife's tip to scrape the tiny damp black seed from the pod and shepherd it carefully into your egg white mixture. An excellent place to buy vanilla pods (and they arrive in perfect flexible form, no soaking required) is Vanilla Saffron Imports. Their vanilla extract and saffron is also top drawer.
Chestnut cream is usually sweetened- if you cannot find it, but you are able to locate unsweetened chestnut paste, you may use the paste, after you have added some powdered sugar to it. Add the sugar to taste. If you are only able to find chestnuts; pas de probleme: Just put the shelled chestnuts into a food processor, puree, and add sugar to taste. If you become enthralled by chestnut, you must try the geophysically gorgeous Mont Blanc.


QUIZ MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE?
Okay maybe not ..... but we did do very well at the WFWI Annual Quiz night in Hanley Castle last week. With the excellent minds of Lesley, Cynthia, Sarah & Barbara, we answered questions on all sorts of subjects and even impressed ourselves with our breadth of knowledge. At the end of the evening, we were equal second in our area. However, there was a parallel quiz night at the north end of the County and a team there managed to better the scores from Hanley Castle pushing us a little further down the pecking order. We didn't mind though as we had a fun night and didn't disgrace ourselves. Eggheads next then?


Tony O'Lenick asks industry expert Kelly Dobos, of Kao Brands, to explain the difference between humectants, emollients and occlusive agents, for the benefit of novice formulators.
Humectants include ingredients such as glycerin, urea and pyrrolidone carboxylic acid (PCA). These materials function by attracting water outward to the stratum corneum (SC) from the dermis below and binding that water in the SC. Glycerin, for instance, frequently is used due to its low cost and high efficacy. However, the tacky feeling imparted to skin by high levels of humectants is one of the drawbacks to formulating with them. Thus, when optimizing skin formulations, cosmetic chemists often are challenged to reduce these negative properties.
Occlusive agents increase moisture levels in skin by providing a physical barrier to epidermal water loss. Ingredients with occlusive properties include petrolatum, waxes, oils and silicones. Some occlusive agents like petrolatum can leave a heavy feeling on skin; thus they often are combined with other ingredients like emollients to improve consumer appeal.
Each of these ingredient types has a different mechanism of action and most cosmetic moisturizers will use a combination of them to create a synergistic effect and to mitigate certain esthetic or financial drawbacks. Product claims and skin feel are also considerations; therefore, experimentation with the various options is recommended.

COSATU TO FIGHT FOR ZIMBAS IN SA
Sunday, November 28, 2021 NewsdzeZimbabwe 0
THE Congress of South African Unions (Cosatu) has revealed plans to engage the government on behalf of Zimbabweans that are likely to be deported due to expiry of the Special Dispensation Permits (ZSP) on December 31.
This follows an announcement last week by South African minister in the Presidency, Mondli Gungubele, who said following deliberations, the SA government had decided that it would not renew ZSP permits, and would give its holders one year to apply for other visas.
"At the expiry of this 12-month period, those who are not successful will have to depart the republic or be deported," Gungubele said last week.
But yesterday Cosatu's International relations secretary Sonia Mabunda-Kaziboni said the organisation would find ways to assist the affected Zimbabweans through negotiations with the SA government.
"Right now we are trying to help comrades with the ZSP issue. It's not looking good, especially because the government has already made a declaration… but we'll try to see if there's a way to get an extension at least," Mabunda-Kaziboni said.
She said she would advise after the engagement with the leadership today (Monday), but indicated that it was a very tricky situation for the union.
Indications are that the government of SA's decision was prompted by the sporadic threats and demonstrations by South Africans who opposed the renewal of Zimbabwean permits.
The SA government reportedly fears the possibility of uncontrollable xenophobic attacks on Zimbabweans once it announces the extension of the ZSP permits.
This was after South Africans launched a campaign dubbed #NotoZimbabweanpermits extension.
Zimbabwe Community in South Africa (ZCSA) leader, Ngqabutho Mabhena last week said his organisation would engage the SA government on its decision to stop extending the permits. Newsday

Demonstrating a deep understanding of content can be done in creative ways. Screencast videos using free sites like Screencast-O-Matic or Screencastify can be a great gauge of understanding and a useful resource for future learners as part of a class library. Instead of pencil and paper tests, your students can complete online ClassFlow drag and drop and matching activities. Using Piktochart or Google Drawings, infographics or as Comix strips, scholars can demonstrate their mastery of the lesson. Let them blog it out and have their thoughts expressed in multimedia blog posts using Edublogs.
I Gather my Data via ClassFlow.com. Classflow allows me to deliver an assessment and see the results immediately. I display the red or green results and we discuss as a class our strengths and weaknesses. As a teacher, you can get a great snapshot of what's going on in the room via these reports.
There are so many engaging ways that your scholars can show you what they know. We constantly need to assess, formatively and summatively. Let's find some fun and interesting ways to do this.
Plickers.com is another website that allows you to create quick assessments formative assessments to is a quick a formative assessment tool Flickr requires that each of your students have an individual answer card that is coded only to them and they answer bye.
RAFT writing – Students become the character as they utilize this writing strategy, Once they understand their roles as writers, the audience they will address, the varied formats for writing, and the topic it's fun to have them blog as water droplets, cell membranes or scientists on the brink of discovery. ie: Role – your school's technology coordinator Audience – parents, students and teachers Format – infographic for school newspaper Topic – stay safe on the Internet or Role – a drop of water; Audience – a meteorologist; Format – a magazine cover; Topic – my journey around the world.
Crossword puzzles – Students create their own crossword puzzles using current class content as their inspiration. Discovery has a puzzlemaker that allows them to create and then print out their puzzles or they can create an online crossword puzzle by creating a ClassFlow activity and sharing it with the class.
Displays / Exhibits – Students research topics and creatively displays findings as an exhibit. ie: History exhibit – Immigrants built a new life in an unfamiliar land, enriching the local culture. Science exhibit – Famous Scientists, Inventors, Artists, and Leaders are highlighted. Math exhibit – Everyday life examples of Algebra or Geometry are examined.
Graphic Essays – Students can create a mosaic for the chapter or unit they are studying. Instead of writing a 500 word essay, students can be charged with collecting (or creating) 5 images and creating a poster with the images and text quotes. They can present the essay and defend their choices in writing or orally.
Online Quizzes or Games – Students become game creators using class content. Give them question stems to model their questions after and let them have fun using ClassFlow, Quizlet, Socrative or Kahoot.
Infographics – Students make a visual image such as a chart or diagram that represents information or data. A good infographic is worth a thousand words and many students prefer the creative freedom. Piktochart or Google Drawings allows them to create graphics that teach.
Back Channels – Students take part in or drive a chatroom-style discussion allowing you to gather information and assess in a noninvasive way. Have them submit quick responses or compile a list of related resources onto a Padlet or in a TodaysMeet chatroom.
Create Comic Strips – Students create a sequence of drawings in boxes that tell a story. Imagine them creating comics that allow them to visualize ideas, create discussions between historical characters, and provide the real-life setting for a math problem. Using MakeBeliefsComix, Toondoo, or Pixton allow your scholars to sketch out a scene.


Black Hawk Trail is located at 110-Mile Park on the north side of Pomona Lake in east-central Kansas, about 45 miles south of Topeka, and about 25 miles west of Ottawa. This park is a free campground, open year-round, and offers 25 campsites. It also features the 1/2-mile Witch's Broom Nature Trail and the 1/4-mile Deer Creek Nature Trail, each of which pass through heavily-wooded areas.
Black Hawk Trail is 32 miles long and passes through a variety of wooded, riparian and grassland areas along the shoreline of Pomona Lake. The trail surface consists primarily of loose dirt and rock. The trail is not overly technical, but it does have a few tough climbs and descents, as well as a number of creek crossings. The trail is also used for hiking and horseback riding.

With ketamine and botox against depression progress in treatment swr2
It can take a long time to find the right medication to treat depression. Ketamine and Botox seem to help quickly, but need more research.
Probability of responding to an antidepressant is 40 percent
Medication is the standard treatment for depression: They help some sufferers, but very many do not help at all. Accordingly, the controversy surrounding its use is great. A review of the literature shows a stalemate between the proponents and the skeptics.
According to Martijn Arns of Utrecht University, the likelihood of responding to an antidepressant is about 40 percent, only ten to 15 percentage points higher than the proportion of those who respond positively to a placebo. Only about half of the people get better for more than half a year.
Antidepressants can be addictive
A low chance of success would not be such a big problem if, on the other hand, there were not so much to lose: current antidepressants can cause problems in the long run. The body gets used to it like a drug. Therefore, some patients experience a kind of withdrawal when they stop taking the medication.
These factors must be contrasted with the severity of the condition: Depression can be so distressing that even a small chance of success is a glimmer of hope.

Jean Kim u. a.Esketamine for Treatment-Resistant Depression – First FDA-Approved Antidepressant in a New Class. New England Journal of Medicine 381, no. 1 (4. That's why researchers are looking. Researchers continue to search for new cures. They are also testing drugs that have proven effective for other problems and that one would not expect to be used for depression, such as Botox and ketamine.
Botox smoothes out frown lines and probably has a positive effect on depressive feelings
Botox is the highly potent toxin of a bacterium. It is injected into the forehead, or more precisely: the glabella region. This is also known as the "frown line". Thus, the ability to express anger or sadness is reduced. It is not yet certain that depressive feelings are already diminishing because they can no longer be expressed. Indirect effects, such as the positive reaction of fellow people to a friendly facial expression, are also being discussed. What's more, the injection could have immediate chemical consequences for the brain. Based on initial positive results, such questions should be clarified before Botox is approved for the treatment of depression.
The frown line of the glabella region is located between the eyebrows. Treating them with Botox is said to have positive effects on people with depression. The exact mechanism of action is not yet known. To be explored in further studies. imago images imago images / Ikon Images
Ketamine can act particularly quickly
Ketamine is currently causing a lot of excitement in depression treatment. It's available on the black market as a drug, but it's actually a painkiller and anesthetic that has been used in surgery for decades. By chance, it was found that the mood of depressive patients lifted only a few hours after surgery when ketamine was used. With common antidepressants, on the other hand, the effect often only begins after several weeks. Based on long medical experience with ketamine, side effects can be excluded. But here, too, further studies are needed before a corresponding treatment is covered by health insurers.
Precision medicine: treating sufferers with the right drug
It is usually not clear which patients are helped by which medication. Being able to make accurate predictions here is the goal of precision medicine. Brenda Penninx of the Free University of Amsterdam, for example, talks about being able to "distinguish two or three relatively homogeneous subgroups of patients". Only one group with severe symptoms shows an overactive immune system, which should be treated specifically.
Martijn Arns of Utrecht University uses the EEG to study the relationship between brainwave patterns and treatment successes. Using electrodes, he measures the brain waves of affected individuals and classifies them according to frequency, asymmetry and a special type of brain activity that is also found in cases of epilepsy. He hopes to be able to predict which drugs will help best – but also whether stimulation of the brain with electric current or psychotherapy will be more successful.
With the help of electroencephalography (EEG), brainwave currents can be recorded. For this purpose, electrodes are attached to the head. Martijn Arns hopes that this will lead to more success in the targeted treatment of depression. imago images imago images / Science Photo Library
Dealing with one's own suffering in the right way is part of recovery
Due to the difficulty of determining a suitable treatment, it seems all the more important that those affected, for example in the context of behavioral therapy, can learn to come to terms with and deal with their suffering.
The US-American author Andrew Solomon has taken the reflection on his own depressive suffering as a starting point for a non-fiction book. "Saturn's shadow" became a bestseller, thanks in part to Solomon's personal accounts.
Today he hopes to take a pragmatic perspective on this aspect of his life. He says: "Now I have the feeling that I can be sad and restless, but I can say to myself: Okay, right now I feel terrible, I feel sad, but that's about it.

Daniel Caesar's Comments Confirm Biting The Hand That Feeds You Is The New Wave
In this op-ed, Candice Benbow writes, "Maybe [Caesar] and others like him need to be reminded that our support is not a given. It is truly a gift."
By Candice Benbow · March 21, 2019
Daniel Caesar left many of us collectively scratching our heads recently when, in a drunken Instagram Live rant, he came to the defense of white media personality YesJulz and asked why Black people are mean towards white people.
YesJulz has repeatedly come under fire for her racist and anti-Black remarks, but that didn't stop Caesar from defending her and asserting that Black people are not "on top" in society because we haven't gotten with the strategy of the "winning team." Yes, he literally said this.
Throughout his rant, Caesar confessed that he was drunk and was insistent that he would not apologize if considered offensive. Stating that everyone is entitled to their own opinions and beliefs, Caesar said that his fans could "cancel" him if they felt so strongly about his position.
As Caesar's comments came on the heels of yet another Black celebrity blunder, it confirmed what seems to be a growing trend: biting the hands that feed you is the new wave.
Emma McIntyre/Getty Images for The Recording Academy
In a world where everyone is one viral post away from super stardom, the industry has become saturated with new faces, who may have the talent, but don't necessarily have the media training to accompany it. Today's instant fame does not require that entertainers and influencers cultivate the critical preparation and self-reflection to sustain the magnitude of their platforms. Many could even say that this is the consequence of labels and agencies moving away from talent development.
It seems gone are the days when celebrities were more thoughtful and polished. While many would consider themselves being authentic, the powers that be only consider the revenue that can be generated from their streaming numbers and social media platforms. There is little to no investment in preparing them for the longevity of a career; the interest is solely in the moment. I would like to believe, had management and label executives taken the time to groom him for success, Caesar would be the number one trending topic for his immense talent rather than profound ignorance.
These celebrities expect our money and our support, but we don't receive their respect.
But Caesar's actions — and the actions of others recently — speak to an even larger and more disappointing issue. There is underlying arrogance that many celebrities develop towards their Black audience when they have achieved what they consider to be crossover success.
Mainstream appeal moves them beyond the Black support that nurtured their budding careers into the oasis of white fans and white endorsements. While many will attempt to convince themselves that they are building a multicultural fanbase and broadening the scope of their reach, what they won't admit is that praise has become the standard bearer. To maintain it, they will forsake the very ones whose support has been unwavering.
When Caesar came to the defense of YesJulz, he did so at the expense of Black women — R&B and soul's base — and those who have consistently championed Caesar himself. These celebrities expect our money and our support, but we don't receive their respect.
And it seems many entertainers don't care. Caesar told us that if we didn't like what he had to say, we could stop listening. He even said that he'd been in this situation before and profusely apologized, something he is unwilling to do this time. His refusal to be held accountable for his words actually speaks to the importance of "cancel culture". Nobody is owed the support of others and those who hold us accountable, making it clear they can withdraw their support at any time.
2017 CBS Photo Archive
Entertainers and influencers must take seriously their platform in a way that honors and reflects the communities that have supported them. With such opportunity comes great responsibility and gone are the days when one can feign ignorance as a rationale for their foolishness. As long as Google and library cards are free, people are without excuse.
Though I believe "cancel culture" is necessary, I struggle with the fact that I see Caesar as a 23-year-old "kid," who still has a great deal of growing to do. Especially since I know young people his age who are leading progressive movements and engaging in work to transform their communities.
I want to leave space for the fact that we can all grow and evolve, but that growth can't happen on the backs of those we have harmed. We also can't exploit their resources while we journey towards evolution.
In his short career, it has been reported that Caesar's music has already amassed half a billion streams on Spotify. Perhaps, we should take his advice and let those streams slow down a bit. Maybe he and others like him need to be reminded that our support is not a given. It is truly a gift.

Indian J Med Microbiol [serial online] 2009 [cited 2021 Jan 20];27:170-1. Available from: https://www.ijmm.org/text.asp?2009/27/2/170/49439
Laboratory diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection depends mostly on detection of antibodies against HIV in plasma or serum using a sequential two-test algorithm; Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA), followed by the more specific Line Immuno Assay (LIA) /Western blot (WB) test. As recommended, a positive test result must not be given to the patient until the screening test has been repeatedly reactive on the same specimen and a supplemental test like LIA/WB is positive. [1] In Bangladesh, a country with low prevalence of HIV, WB/LIA is recommended as the confirmatory laboratory test of HIV. However, due to financial constrains, many individuals with positive ELISA results are reluctant to have their diagnosis confirmed by this expensive LIA/WB test. Moreover, since the number of diagnosed HIV cases is low in Bangladesh, LIA/WB tests are performed in batches in order to minimize the cost of the test. As such, the test is performed infrequently at the referral centers. For these reasons, results of LIA/WB tests often take more than a week. During this time, patients experience enormous anxiety, and many fail to return for follow-up.
As the need for HIV testing continues to increase, countries with limited resources such as Bangladesh are increasingly recognizing the need to explore new testing strategies with minimum expenses, which serve the patient's testing needs more effectively. In a randomized single blinded study conducted at the Department of Virology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Dhaka, Bangladesh, we retrospectively tested specimens from 121 HIV positive and 30 HIV negative individuals collected between July 2004 and April 2005. The specimens tested either positive or negative by ELISA, and were confirmed by LIA analysis. The aim of our study was to assess the feasibility of a combination of rapid tests as an alternative method to LIA/WB for confirming the preliminary positive results of ELISA. All the sera were tested by three rapid test kits (RTK), namely, Determine HIV-1/2 (Abbott Laboratories, IL, USA), Uni-Gold (Trinity Biotech, Ireland) and Capillus HIV-1/HIV-2 (Trinity Biotech, Ireland) according to Strategy III, recommended by the Joint United Nations Program on HIV/AIDS and WHO which involves three rapid assays used for diagnosis and surveillance in low prevalent countries. [2]
Using this method, we obtained a 100% concordance with the ELISA and LIA results and the three rapid tests [Table 1]. On cost benefit analysis, it was calculated that altogether the three rapid tests required only 11.3 USD, whereas, each WB costs approximately 63.7 USD. However, due to lack of samples, the main limitation of our study was the inability to include sera with discordant WB results. As such, it remains to be determined whether this alternative combination of tests could confirm the discordance of HIV results.
Numerous studies have demonstrated that alternative confirmatory strategies using algorithms with combinations of screening tests produce reliable results comparable to those of the standard ELISA and Western blot. [3],[4],[5] Moreover, the United Nations - World Health Organization ( WHO) program on HIV/ AIDS currently recommends the routine use of combinations of screening tests for HIV screening, surveillance, and diagnosis. [2] Hence, we hope that this rapid, cheap, alternative testing strategy will provide an accurate result and reduce the overall cost of HIV diagnosis. Furthermore, HIV positive individuals will be able to get a confirmed result during their second visit. This will not only allow counselling and testing personnel to guide HIV infected individuals more effectively for treatment but also prevent a large number of HIV positive patients from being lost to follow-up. As such, we recommend that resource-limited countries should consider adopting combination of rapid tests as an alternative strategy to LIA/WB for confirmation of HIV infection in their National recommendations.

JEFF JACOBY
Life without libraries would be unimaginably poorer
By Jeff Jacoby Globe Columnist,June 17, 2015, 5:54 p.m.
Argentina's "Weapon of Mass Instruction" mobile library, which is shaped like a military tank, is one of many such improvisations in "Improbable Libraries."Secretaría de Cultura y Educacíon, Rosario, Argentina
I was four the first time I remember reading in a library. The book was "Are You My Mother?" by P.D. Eastman, and I'm not sure which I found more captivating — the adventure of the hatchling that sets off to find its mother, or my own adventure of picking out a book from what seemed an endless array of enticing titles.
I was hooked early, on books and libraries both. To this day I can visualize precisely the shelves in the fiction section of my school's library, where I first discovered many of my favorite children's novels: "The Twenty-One Balloons," "Harriet the Spy," "A Wrinkle in Time."
But the small library in my Cleveland-area day school was merely a gateway drug to the local public library. I spent innumerable hours there as a boy, addicted as much to the serendipitous pleasures of searching for a good book as to the satisfying relish of losing myself in its pages once I found one. My parents, raising five kids on a meager income, had little money to spare for buying books. But my library card was free, and I made heavy use of it.
The University Heights Library was my home away from home. Nothing was off-limits to a curious reader. From the Edward Eager magic books that fascinated me when I was little to "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex, But Were Afraid to Ask," which held a different fascination as I grew older, it was all available. All I had to do was choose.
I can't imagine life without libraries. And by "libraries," I mean actual books. I don't mean bookless digital-content centers like San Antonio's BiblioTech, an all-electronic reading venue that looks, as Time magazine wrote, "like an orange-hued Apple store," outfitted with 500 e-readers, 48 computers, and 20 iPads and laptops. I would never discourage reading, but rows of iMacs do not a library make. The ability to browse goes to the essence of the library experience, along with the egalitarian access that puts books in plain sight of all comers.
Happily, that experience is alive and well. As British journalist Alex Johnson documents in a wonderful new volume, "Improbable Libraries," even in our digital age readers yearn for printed books, and librarians go to amazing and creative lengths to supply them.
Johnson highlights libraries that have opened in airports, train stations, and hotels, the better to serve readers on the move in this hypermobile era. In Santiago, Chile, there are lending libraries in the subways: The Bibliometro system lends 440,000 books a year from 20 underground stations, and has become the largest public library in the country. A global tiny-library movement has blossomed in the form of honor-system book nooks on street corners, at bus stops, and even in front yards of private homes. In Great Britain, hundreds of iconic red telephone boxes, no longer needed, have been repurposed into mini-lending libraries.
Smartphones and tablets have grown ubiquitous, but reading on screens is not the same — and for many people, not nearly as satisfying — as reading in print. Clicking links on an electronic device is efficient, but it can't replace the tactile engagement of wandering the stacks, pulling a book from the shelf, reading the dust jacket, flipping through its pages.
The hunger for books knows no boundary. In Laos, the Big Brother Mouse project uses elephants to carry books to remote villages for children to borrow and exchange. The Mongolian Children's Mobile Library, using camels, does the same thing in the Gobi desert. So does Luis Soriano's Biblioburro library in rural Colombia — with donkeys.
Life without books and libraries in which to discover them would be unimaginably poorer. "Improbable Libraries" makes that point beautifully. Then again, if you're anything like me, you've known it since you were four.

VIDEO GAME CARTRIDGE FOR USE WITH THE ATARI (R) VIDEO COMPUTER SYSTEM (TM)
CONCEIVED AND DESIGNED BY MIKE LORENZEN
FOR ONE OR TWO PLAYERS
Once upon a time there was a fairy tale about Three Little Pigs and the
Big Bad Wolf.  Well, now it's a videogame, where you can be the little pigs
or the Big Bad Wolf...you choose!
HOME REPAIR MANUAL
By Mike Lorenzen
OINK! (TM) BASICS
1. With power OFF, plug in the game cartridge.
2. Turn power ON.
3. Plug in Joystick Controller/s (solo player uses left Joystick).
4. Set both difficulty switches to 'b' to begin.
5. Select game with the game select switch.
Game 1: One player (controlling the Pig) vs. Computer Wolf.
Game 2: Two players (taking turns controlling the Pig) vs. Computer Wolf.
Game 3: Two players (taking turns controlling the Pig and the Wolf).
6. The Joystick Controller.  Move your Joystick to the left to move your Pig
to the left, to the right to move your Pig right, and up and down to move
your Pig up and down the screen.  Press the red button to grab an object;
release the button to drop it in place as a 'patch.'
7. To start a new game press reset.  Wait for the Pig to walk to the center
of its house.  Move the Joystick to bring out the Wolf and start the
auction.
8. Difficulty Switches.  With the difficulty switches in the 'a' position, your
Pigs must walk down to the wall to drop an object in place.  In the 'b'
position, they can drop objects in place from any point on the screen.
When playing game 3, the Wolf will huff and puff a little slower if your
difficulty switch is in the 'a' position.
9. Scoring.  Points are earned every time your Pig drops an object in place
in the wall.  Objects in the first row are worth 4 points each.  Point
values for each object increase by 4 with each new row (see "Row After
Row" under "Special Features").  For example, in row 6, each object is
worth 24 points.  In row 7, each object is worth 28 points.
SPECIAL FEATURES OF OINK! (TM)
Three Little Pigs, Three Little Houses.  Each Pig defends its own house.
The first house is made of straw, so it's yellow.  The second is made of
sticks, so it's brown.  The third house is made of bricks, so it's red.
Each time you lose a Pig, you move to the next house and the next Pig.
The Wolf Who Huffs and Puffs.  Whether your house is made of straw or sticks
or bricks, the Wolf will try to blow it down to get the Pig.  He'll blow a
little hole here, then a little hole there.  And, if you don't keep up with
the Wolf, he'll turn little holes into big holes.  Then he'll chase after your
Pig.
Losing a Pig.  If your Pig is struck by the Wolf's breath, he will fall down
to the bottom of the wall, losing precious time.  And, if the hole is wide
enough for the Pig to fit through, the Wolf's breath will take him right out
onto the lawn.  And then you've lost a Pig.
Row After Row After Row.  Every time a row of objects is used up, a new row
appears.  With each new row, point values increase.  But as they do, the
Wolf gets tougher and tougher.
If You Can't Beat Him, Join Him.  You and a friend can take turns helping the
Wolf in his homewrecking crusade.  In game number 3, each player will alter-
nately have 3 turns helping the Wolf and 3 turns helping the Pigs.  Points
are scored only while you're helping the Pigs.  At the end of the game, total
scores are shown for both players.

How Coronavirus May Help the World's Final Battle Against Polio
In one of the globe's last polio-endemic countries, Pakistanis are finally realizing the importance of vaccines — in the absence of one for COVID-19.
A child receives an oral polio vaccination at a bus terminal in Rawalpindi, Pakistan. (Sabrina Toppa)
In Karachi's overcrowded slums, Sadia Shakeel, a 42-year-old polio worker, grabbed a mic and shouted over large crowds of shrieking children and their parents. "Don't gather in large crowds! Keep your children inside!" Wearing a face mask, Shakeel added, "You have to wash your hands!"
In late March, after the World Health Organization (WHO) and partners suspended door-to-door polio vaccination campaigns to focus on COVID-19, polio workers such as Shakeel — who is the Karachi coordinator for Rotary International's polio campaign — found themselves on the frontlines of Pakistan's battle against the coronavirus.
After years of Pakistani polio workers and their security teams facing hostility and violence — targeted killings have left more than 90 dead in the last decade — communities are finally welcoming and placing their trust in the public health advice and services over 265,000 polio workers deliver, especially in areas where vaccine hesitancy is entrenched. Other Pakistanis are finally understanding the importance of vaccines.
