How to turn 17¢ into $1800.00!
Once, when I was working as a vet tech, we had a sheltie puppy come in that was sick and had been vomiting for several days. When we x-rayed the pup, we found that he had eaten coins – a dime, a nickel and 2 pennies. After surgery, hospitalization and an $1800.00 vet bill the puppy made a full recovery.
The point of this story? Dogs, especially young dogs, will eat things. It's how they explore the world. For the most part, this is normal and they will grow out of it – but not always! When they start to eat non-edible things like socks, plastic toys or rocks, things can get stuck or make them sick.
The eating of substances that have no nutritional value is a disorder known as Pica, and it is common among puppies and certain dog breeds such as Labradors. Since a dog's sense of smell is about 10,000 times greater than ours, they're naturally attracted to most everything.
What causes Pica? Boredom and loneness can make dogs eat odd things, so can conditions like Diabetes and Cushing's Disease, as well as nutritional deficiencies, electrolyte imbalances and starvation.
If you've ruled out a medical reason for your dog's dietary indiscretions, then prevention is your best defense. Eliminate access; put away clothes, don't leave trash lying around and store chemicals and pesticides out of reach.
If you suspect your dog's pica is caused by loneliness or boredom, increase his physical activity and mental stimulation. Teach your dog the behaviors "Leave it" and Drop it" so you can easily control what goes in his mouth. Supervise and confine puppies for their safety and the safety of your things.
If you suspect your dog has eaten something dangerous, like coins, go immediately to your vet!

You can start your career right out of high school if you find a pharmacist willing to train you.
1 What is the Difference Between a Licensed and a Certified Pharmacy Tech?
Pharmacy technicians are the primary assistants for pharmacists. The prerequisites to become a pharmacy tech vary from state to state, though according to the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy, in 2013, 80 percent of the states had certification regulations in place for pharmacy techs and more were preparing to come on board. Most of the work is learned on the job where you're trained to take customer orders, count pills, prepare ointments and label prescriptions. Certification is available through the National Healthcareer Association and the Pharmacy Technician Certification Board.
While you don't need a degree to become a pharmacy tech, a technical school or community college course can provide you with sufficient information so you can pass the test to become certified. The pharmacy technician programs typically last about 12 months and include study in pharmacy law, ethics, math and record keeping. You'll cover the names and uses of many common medications as well as the process pharmacies use to dispense drugs.
To sit for a state pharmacy tech exam, you must meet the requirements of your state. The regulations vary widely. Most states allow you to take the test at any time, while others demand on-the-job training prior to certification. For example, in Illinois, pharmacy techs must complete six months of training under a licensed pharmacist before sitting for the test and in Colorado, the state requires techs to put in 500 hours of hands-on training. Pharmacists hire trainees as interns and typically follow the National Pharmacy Technician Training Program standards.
The cost to take the certification exams varies just as much between jurisdictions. The price of the pharmacy tech certification exam was $25 in Delaware in 2013, for example, while the state of Alaska charged $150. The average cost in most states was $35. Most states require applicants to be 18 years old though you can be 17 in Georgia and 16 in Kentucky. Additionally, regulations for certification in most states require a criminal background check to ensure candidates are of good moral character.
Once you've become a certified pharmacy technician, you must continue with your education to maintain the designation. According to the National Healthcare Association and the Pharmacy Technician Certification Board, pharmacy techs must obtain 20 hours of approved continuing education to renew their certifications every two years. Courses can include topics ranging from inventory control and drug distribution to pharmacy law and pharmacy operations. Science and math college courses also can count toward your recertification requirements.

WATCH: Dave Mustaine on potentially epic 'Big Four' reunion tour
The 'Big Four' of '80s thrash metal: Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer and Anthrax played their last concert on Sept. 14, 2011 at Yankee Stadium in New York City.
Days prior to the event, it was rumored that frontman Dave Mustaine of Megadeth, was canceling his band's appearance due to his battle with neck injuries. Despite his condition, Mustaine performed the show. Two days prior to the band's performance, Mustaine was on the verge of getting emergency surgery.
When asked by Sirius XM's Eddie Trunk how he powered through the performance after being in such pain, Mustaine commented, "There were some comments that were made about me that kind of made me want to do it even more," referring to the taunts of his neck condition by Metallica's co-manager, Peter Mensch.
With Slayer planning their retirement after one final world tour, Trunk asked Mustaine the question on everyone's mind: Will there be any more Big Four concerts?

Q: Converting string variable with double commas into float? I have some strings in a column which originally uses commas as separators from thousands and from decimals and I need to convert this string into a float, how can I do it?
I firstly tried to replace all the commas for dots:
df['min'] = df['min'].str.replace(',', '.')

and tried to convert into float:
df['min']= df['min'].astype(float)

but it returned me the following error:

    996
    997     return arr.view(dtype)

ValueError: could not convert string to float: '1.199.75'

If it is possible, I would like to remove all dots and commas and then add the dots before the last two characters from the variables before converting into float.
Input:
df['min'].head()

9.50
10.00
3.45
1.095.50
13.25

Expected output:
9.50
10.00
3.45
1095.50
13.25

A: Try this:
df['min'] = df['min'].str.replace(',', '')
df['min'] = df['min'].str[:-2] + '.' + df['min'].str[-2:]

df['min']= df['min'].astype(float)

A: If you always have 2 decimal digits:
df['min'] = pd.to_numeric(df['min'].str.replace('.', '', regex=False)).div(100)

output (as new column min2 for clarity):
        min     min2
0      9.50     9.50
1     10.00    10.00
2      3.45     3.45
3  1.095.50  1095.50
4     13.25    13.25

A:
I have some strings in a column which originally uses commas as separators from thousands and from decimals and I need to convert this string into a float

So lets produce a reproducible data source which conforms to your description:
df = {'min': '0123,456,78'}

Then splits this on "," into a list:
split_str = df['min'].split(',')

Collects integer and decimal parts separately:
int_str = ''.join(split_str[:-1])
dec_str = split_str[-1]

And finally reconstructs a valid float string; and convert it to an actual float number:
float_number = float(f"{int_str}.{dec_str}")

The Vale of Tears
Hirschprung, Pinchas (Author)
Felsen, Vivian (Translator)
According to the publisher's notes: "Rabbi Pinchas Hirschprung (1912-1998) was born in Dukla, Poland. His memoir of surviving the Holocaust is a first-person account of fleeing from Nazi-occupied Poland during the first two years of World War II. As an Orthodox rabbi, he is specifically targeted and persecuted, and in the fall of 1939 he leaves the shtetl of Dukla and travels, desperately trying to find refuge, to a myriad of towns -Rymanow and Sanok in Poland, then across the Soviet border to Linsk, Lemberg, Lutsk, Lida, Soletshnik and Voranava and then across the Soviet-Lithuanian border to Eyshishok and, finally, Vilna. While escaping across the borders of German-occupied Poland into Soviet-occupied Poland, and finally to Lithuania and then to freedom in Kobe, Japan, and Shanghai, China. Rabbi Pinchas Hirschrprung astutely observes his position in the Jewish communities, the violence against Jews and the urgency of seeking freedom. The Vale of Tears is replete with Talmudic and Torah scripture and psalms as Hirschprung holds onto his faith through the chaos. Rabbi Pinchas Hirschprung arrived in Montreal, Canada, in December 1941 and wrote his Yiddish-language memoirs, titled Fun Natsishen Yomertol: Zikhroynes fun a Polit (From the Nazi Vale of Tears: Memoirs of a Refugee) in 1944. His memoir was published in Montreal's daily Yiddish-language newspaper, Der Keneder Adler. The Vale of Tears is its first English translation. Hirschprung became the chief rabbi of Montreal in 1969 and led Montreal's Jewish community until his death in 1998."

For Now, Twitter Shares Count More Than 1′s in Google Search Ranking [NetworkEffect]
Posted in search engines, social media with tags Facebook, Google, Google +1, search engine rankings, search engines, SERP, Twitter on March 30, 2011 by gadler
Here's a funny thing about Google's new +1 tool, which lets users vote up search results. At launch, Google is keeping recommendations from its new +1 voting tool out of its ranking algorithm, even though it does consider shares on services like Twitter as a signal in its core search results.
Plus-one-ing (or however you write that!) a link doesn't make it appear higher in search results, yet. The search result shows up in the same order it would have, annotated with information about people who have +1′ed it.
After seeing lots of confusion about this, we followed up with a Google spokeswoman this morning to talk through exactly how this works.
Eventually, the plan is to consider +1 votes as one of many signals in Google rankings, she said. But right now, while +1 activity is just getting started, Google is excluding it from its ranking algorithm. In part that's because early +1 users could warp search results before there's enough data.
Currently, Google does use Twitter shares to help rank core search results. That was part of its big social search launch in February.
So for the moment, sharing a link on Twitter counts for more in the Google search algorithm than +1′ing it on Google.
Though Google may not re-rank yet based on +1, people who sign up to participate in the trial will start seeing +1′s from their friends and the rest of +1 testers immediately.
So as not to crowd the page, if a link has been +1′ed more times than it has been shared on Twitter, the +1′s will show up, the spokeswoman said. If there have been more Twitter shares than +1′s, those will show up.
Google does not yet count public Facebook "likes" as a social search signal, though it plans to, Director of Product Management Mike Cassidy told NetworkEffect earlier this month. At the time, Cassidy maintained that the omission of Facebook data wasn't due to tension between Google and Facebook over personal data sharing. Rather, he said, it was a "technical issue" that would be resolved soon.Here's a funny thing about Google's new +1 tool, which lets users vote up search results.

One year deal, will pay him more than the restricted free agent tender, and includes guarantees and incentives.
I guess there were several teams preparing an offer to sign him away.
Packers got wind of the interest, sweetened the deal, Allison didn't want to leave in first place. Made it an easy decision for him to stay.
As of now, he's on the books from a cap standpoint, but nothing is guaranteed. If he doesn't make the final cut, his numbers are wiped off the books.
But, he's a good fit in MLF's offense, which needs a true #1 like Tae Adams, but the #2 only needs to be a possesion type WR, and that is Allison to a "T".
.But, he's a good fit in MLF's offense, which needs a true #1 like Tae Adams, but the #2 only needs to be a possesion type WR, and that is Allison to a "T".
What I'm wondering, and this is sincere Q, but how will the offense work in terms of spacing? Adams is excellent but isn't a deep-speed guy. MVS is the only deep speed guy on present roster. Allison, St. Brown, Kumerow, Graham, Lewis aren't deep guys, or Adams.
Pardon the length/ramble, but I wonder this from two recent contexts: The Bucks and Capers/HaHa/Randall!
The Bucks are the best team in the NBA thus far. Bucks fans make constant reference to the improved "spacing": 3-point shooters spaces the court, by pulling out defenders, and providing space underneath for Brogdon and Bledsoe to drive. (Giannis too, although he gets attention regardless of 3-point gunners.) The whole concept is to extend and spread out the defense and provide space underneath. I guess I'm wondering whether the Packers might conversely be moving towards a compressed anti-spacing plan where there is lesser space underneath.
With Caper and HaHa 2017, it could be 3rd-and-8, but he'd still play so deep that a receiver/TE could run to the first down line, make an open catch, and get hit by Haha only after the first down. I asked myself, why doesn't Haha play tighter and defend/contest 3 yards before the first-down line? And why does Randall start 6 yards off the line, and then back up another 5 the second the ball is snapped, and concede 8 yard easy completions outside? Well, obvious answer was because Capers and Haha and Randall were afraid of big plays and preferred to concede 5-8 yard completions and first downs.
So, my question is, where will we get the spacing? Is there a risk that corners and safeties will tend to press in closer and closer, with no fear? That the whole defensive net tends to tighten in, to compress?
*Leaving less spacing and room underneath for TE's and possession receivers?
*Leaving less space underneath for YAC?
*Leaving less room for running backs to run, because safeties and slots and corners and ILB aren't that far off and are tending to have their eyes underneath.
*With defenders mostly free to play within 1-15 yards of the line, perhaps you are also more vulnerable to safety and corner blitz?
Is there a risk that MLF offense might be so oriented towards short possession stuff that the defenses won't be conceding short possession passes? That short runs and possession passes won't be "taking what the defense gives you", but that the defense won't be giving you even that, and won't really be giving us anything? I admit I'm paranoid and just kind of nervous that with us working mostly underneath, that defenses will play to stop even that, and nothing will be easy; and it will be really hard to sustain a series of 1st-down conversions. That congested with blocking TE's LBers and safeties, Jones and Wiliams will struggle to find running room? That receivers or screens or TE's running or slanting or crossing 5-15 yards off the line will just have a lot of traffic to fight through?
Or hopefully, as GM has alluded to, maybe Rodgers and MLF will love it if defenses compress? Mabye Adams and Geronimo and St. Brown as well as MVS will occasionally be able to break free over the top, and the short underneath stuff will set lots of explosive plays? Maybe if the defensive net is compressed, then when a screen or a back or a receiver does find a seam, maybe there's only one defender on his side of the field to beat for a TD? Hopefully it will work great, and we'll have a great win-win combination of effective running, effective screens, short quick conversions, some modest ones that YAC into explosive plays, and some variably long completions too, some of which YAC into even longer. And we'll have so many good ways to gain yards that defenses will be helpless, confused, and tired! In the Bucks analogy, it's not 3-point bombing OR driving and scoring inside; it's both, each facilitates the other, the team is excellent at both, and whatever the opponent tries to take away the Bucks can take advantage with the others. Hopefully that will be the Packers, with explosive plays and underneath stuff BOTH working effectively and both enabling the other, and that whatever an opponent tries to take away, that will just make them vulnerable to something else.
Rodgers getting accurate is going to be kinda crucial to any such consistent happy-offense landscape!
Best thing I can tell you is to watch the 2018 San Fran offense................in particular, TE George Kittle (#85) and FB/H-B Kyle Juszczyk (#44). Those two players would be the Packers equivalent of Lewis/Hockenson (if drafted) and Danny Vitale. Tonyan could factor into the Kittle role as well, since he's been training with Kittle this whole off-season.
MLF's offense will look a lot like Shanahan's.
The run game will stress the edges, while the passing game will stress all three levels...............and it will be done from the same look/formation and personnel type packages. And that will include a heavy dose of 12 personnel.
Allison is simply not a speed guy. Period.
The word you were searching for was squatting. When a defense knows you cannot challenge them deep, they play what is called a squatting defense. This means they wait for the 7-8 yard pass and then simply destroy the receiver.
We do not have anyone like the Niners Kittle on our offense.
In the MLF/Shanahan offense the #2 WR isn't asked top take the top off a defense. The #2 is the possession WR and the defines Allison very properly.
Now, if they do want to send a WR deep, they have both MVS and ESB to do that.
Again, you need to watch the 49'er offense to get a sense of what they do in the passing game, because you will see a similar type offense in GB.

JScrambler 3.5 Offers Self Defending Capabilities for HTML5 and JavaScript Web Apps
JScrambler, HTML5, JavaScript, code protection, obfuscation
https://appdevelopermagazine.com/images/news_images/jscrambler_nkcqkdnu.jpg
Richard Harris in HTML5 Wednesday, March 19, 2014
JScrambler is introducing new self defending capabilities for HTML5/JavaScript applications with its release of JScrambler 3.5. Self defending offers an active protection technique which provides apps with the capability to react to source code modifications (tampering) and debugging at runtime.
Without protecting code, pirates can violate license agreements, steal secret algorithms, steal code and to reuse it, and leak altered versions to the Internet.
JScrambler enables developers to conceal as much as possible including the logic of an application, what information is gathered from the user, how it is processed on the client-side, and how it is sent to the servers-side.
Since JScrambler's obfuscation introduces a certain level of randomness, allowing developers to explore code morphing techniques, which can be vital in precluding attack automation.
The advanced JavaScript obfuscation hides the algorithm and frustrates anyone that try to steal it. And developers can lock code to a predefined list of domains. If someone places it anywhere else, it will not execute correctly.
JScrambler 3.5 also introduces another feature which enables developers to drive JScrambler transformations on particular source code blocks. With simple annotations it is now possible to disable or just switch between protection templates on specific source code loops or flows.
Projects can be managed from the a web interface or web API which can be easily integrated on deploy script.

UK: MP Expelled From Shadow Cabinet For Noting "Problem With British Pakistani Men Raping White Girls" – Gets Threats
Robert Spencer August 14, 2018
Sarah Champion wrote: "Britain has a problem with British Pakistani men raping and exploiting white girls." For stating that obvious fact, Labour expelled her from the Shadow Cabinet.
However, for all her courage in stating a fact, and for all the trouble doing so has brought to her life, Sarah Champion only got closer to the problem; she didn't hit it square-on. this isn't really a racial problem; it's a religious one. Sexual assault occurs in all cultures, but only in Islam does it have divine sanction. One survivor of a Muslim rape gang in the UK said that her rapists would quote Quran to her, and believed their actions justified by Islam. The Qur'an teaches that Infidel women can be lawfully taken for sexual use (cf. its allowance for a man to take "captives of the right hand," 4:3, 4:24, 23:1-6, 33:50, 70:30). The Qur'an says: "O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to bring down over themselves of their outer garments. That is more suitable that they will be known and not be abused. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful." (33:59) The implication there is that if women do not cover themselves adequately with their outer garments, they may be abused, and that such abuse would be justified.
Sarah Champion not only doesn't know that; she actively denies it: "The real frustration is that I don't know what motivated these gangs. Other than being of Pakistani heritage, what is the commonality? It might be that they went to the same school. People sloppily call them 'Muslims' but are they Muslims? I don't know. They could be Pakistani Christians."
No, they couldn't be. The names of the perpetrators alone indicate that they're Muslims. There are no Pakistani Christian rape gangs. It is a shame that Sarah Champion is under threat, but she is actually an indication of the terrible state Britain is in today. Everyone is willfully blind, and one person with one eye is lauded as far-seeing.
"Sarah Champion MP Under Threat After Calling Out Pakistani Grooming Gangs, But Vows 'I'm Not Done,'" by Jack Montgomery, Breitbart, August 13, 2018 (thanks to David):
Sarah Champion MP says she has "aged" after the Labour Party threw her off its front bench for calling out "British Pakistani men raping and exploiting white girls" and now requires enhanced police security — but vows "I am quite a long way from done."
The Member of Parliament for Rotherham told the Telegraph she has required enhanced police security since she made her remarks, and that "If a stranger comes up to me I'm wary, which is difficult because my job as an MP is to be in the public domain."
"Britain has a problem with British Pakistani men raping and exploiting white girls," Champion wrote in her Sun article in 2017.
"There. I said it. Does that make me a racist? Or am I just prepared to call out this horrifying problem for what it is?
"For too long we have ignored the race of these abusers and, worse, tried to cover it up. No more. These people are predators and the common denominator is their ethnic heritage."
Whether or not Champion's sentiments were "racist" they were evidently too unpalatable for the Labour Party's hard-left, pro-multiculturalism leadership, who promptly expelled her from the Shadow Cabinet.
The furious reaction to Champion's more or less uncontestable observation is all the more surprising considering she is by no means a right-winger, let alone 'far-right', as her politically correct comments to the Telegraph help underline.
"The real frustration is that I don't know what motivated these gangs. Other than being of Pakistani heritage, what is the commonality?" It might be that they went to the same school. People sloppily call them 'Muslims' but are they Muslims? I don't know. They could be Pakistani Christians," she said weakly.
Christians make up a mere 1.2 percent of Pakistan's population, and are subject to brutal persecution and sexual exploitation there themselves….

A timely presentation of new results, challenges, and opportunities in the quickly developing field of nuclear cluster physics, presented by an international group of eminent theoretical and experimental scientists active in the field. Their work reveals how correlations of nucleons can appear spontaneously, propagate, and survive in nuclear matter at both low and high densities. Characteristic nuclear substructures, beyond those predicted by mean-field or collective scenarios, appear on microscopic and cosmic length scales. They can influence the dynamics of fusion of light nuclei and the decay of heavy, fissioning nuclei or of systems produced transiently in heavy-ion reactions. A must-read for young scientists entering the field and a valuable resource for more seasoned nuclear researchers!

Cleethorpes Carnival
Mark Fenty Community
GHoPA took part in Cleethorpes Carnival 2015 40th parade
CLEETHORPES Carnival is over for another year after thousands of people lined the streets to watch the annual parade pass through the resort.
Around 80 floats set off from Sidney Park on Saturday afternoon before making their way up Isaac's Hill and along the promenade before making their way to the finish at Meridian Showground.
The event , celebrating its 40th year, was hailed as a great success with the sun shining down on the resort, allowing the crowds to bask in the sunshine.
Since 1976, organisations, schools, businesses, individuals, lorries, cars and animals have all been spotted at the parade with everything from colourful push bikes to trucks adorned with streamers and balloons.
Highlights included Bin Bot, a giant pink robot made from wheelie bins, a Transformer Truck, the Bloco Fogo samba band, a Firebird and the popular Granny Turismo – alongside a host of brightly-coloured and music-filled floats representing local schools, businesses and organisations.
The Carnival Prince and Princess also took a leading role in the parade.
As reported, hundreds of people voted to decide who led the parade with Grimsby Telegraph readers having the difficult task of whittling down the entrants to a shortlist.
The eventual winners were Carnival Princess Mia-Ella Enefer, 8, and Carnival Prince Ben Smith.
Mia-Ella said: "I've been so excited about this I've been telling my mum I'm almost ready to pop.
"I'm a bit nervous about being in front of the big crowds but I've been practising my wave for a few weeks so I should be fine."
Ben, from Cleethorpes, said: "I'm really excited about it, it's the first time I've ever done anything like this.
"I can't wait to see all the crowds."
The pair led the parade in stylish topless cars as they waved to the large crowds.
Of course, Cleethorpes Carnival has not been without its problems – at one point not so many years ago it looked set to go for good.
But, thanks to Young's, who stepped in to save the day, it survived to fight another carnival day and this year was stronger than ever before.
Mayor of North East Lincolnshire, Councillor Cliff Barber, took part with his Konigswinter counterpart – to celebrate the 40th anniversary of its twinning with Cleethorpes.
Cllr Barber said: "It's fantastic to celebrate the 40 years our two towns have been twinned, it's a great occasion.
"It's also a fabulous event for the resort and it's great to see such a good turnout. It's brought people from all over."
A group of Stormtroopers brought in plenty of attention before the parade even got going.
Mark McFarland said: "We're proving to be quite popular with everyone and a lot of people are coming up to us and asking if we can pose for a picture , which we're only too happy to do.
"This is the first time I have personally been involved with the event but we do a lot of these parades all over the country, but it's great to be here in Cleethorpes.
"It looks like a really good event and we're happy to be part of it."
Ben Raine, one of the operators of the Firebirds and Bin Bot, added: "We're all pleased to be here, we just hope we go down well with the crowds.
"It looks like a great turnout and it's a fabulous event for this area – just look at how many people have come to see it."
The carnival was also a great opportunity for local organisations to raise money for charity.
Bluebird Care, a homecare agency which operates in North East Lincolnshire, were handing out prizes to vulnerable and disabled spectators.
Director Victoria Webber said: "I think this is an absolutely brilliant event – it's the third time we have taken part.
"It's great fun for everyone involved but it also helps raise a lot of cash for charity."
Julie Burrell, chair of Cuddles Cat Rescue, added: "There seems to be a really great atmosphere and it's a lot of fun to take part.
"It's a great chance for us to advertise our charity."
David Wrightam, director of Class Act Theatre Company, used the parade to advertise the group's upcoming musical Half A Sixpence at the Parkway Theatre.
He said: "Rehearsals have been going really well and I think we've got a really great show to put on.
"We're also celebrating our 15th anniversary to this is a great chance to have a bit of fun."
He added: "I think the carnival brings the town together and you can tell there's a real sense of community, which is what it's all about.
"Some people think it's all about dressing up and funny floats, but this is Grimsby not Disneyland."

Blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery is a plastic surgical procedure for correcting defects and disfigurations of the eyelids for functionally and aesthetically modifying the eye region. The procedure is more common among women. Surgery can be performed on the upper lids, lower lids or both.
Blepharoplasty can be combined with other procedure, such as a brow lift, face-lift.
Medical Records noted - previous surgeries, past and present medical conditions, such as dry eyes, glaucoma, allergies, circulatory problems, thyroid problems and diabetes.
Your doctor will also ask about your use of medications, vitamins, herbal supplements, you will be advised against taking few medications till surgery.
Physical examinations and tests - Your surgeon will conduct a physical examination of the eye.
Test for vision - Your eye doctor will examine your eyes and test your vision.
Surgeon injects anesthetic medication into your eyelids and administers intravenous medication to keep you relaxed.
The upper eyelid surgery can be corrected through an incision within the natural crease on the eyelid for removal of skin and fat. A thin stitch is then used to bring the skin together to allow for a creation of an eyelid crease.
Lower eyelid surgery can involve skin incisions directly below the lash line or an incision on the inside of the eyelid, called a transconjunctival approach.
Laser blepharoplasty is the performance of eyelid surgery using a laser instead of a scalpel.
Eyelid incisions typically are closed with sutures. Sutures are removed within one week.
After surgery patient is shifted to recovery room to monitor complications.
Lubricating ointment and cold compresses applied on eyes four to five times throughout the day.
Q: Why do we have sagging and droopy eyelids?
A: As age increases, the muscles supporting the eyelids get weaken. As a result, excess fat may gather above and below eyelids, causing sagging eyebrows, droopy lids and bags under eyes.
Q: What are the disadvantages of droopy eyelids?
Q: What are goals of Blepharoplasty procedure?
A: Blepharoplastic procedure resolves functional and cosmetic problems of the eye region of the face.
Q: What conditions affect the result of blepharoplasty in patient?
Q: Who are candidates for eyelid surgery?
Q: What are the warning signs to seek medical attention after surgery?
Q: What are the results of Blepharoplasty?
A: Blepharoplasty results in more youthful appearance and more self-confidence in patients. In some situations, it may not be possible to achieve optimal results with a single surgical procedure and another surgery may be necessary.
Q: What are the early restrictions after Blepharoplasty?
Avoid wearing contact lenses for about two weeks after surgery.
Q: What are advantages and drawback of Transconjunctival blepharoplasty?
A: Transconjunctival blepharoplasty technique permits the excision of the lower-eyelid fat without leaving a visible scar, but the transconjunctival blepharoplasty technique does not allow the removal of excess eyelid-skin.
Q: How long does the blepharoplasty procedure take?
A: A blepharoplasty operation usually requires 1–3 hours to complete.
Q: When will be my follow up after Blepharoplasty procedure?
A: You will be visiting the consultant within 7-10 days of procedure. In case, you notice any warning signs, notify the consultant immediately.
Q: When will I be discharged from hospital after Blepharoplasty?
A: Depending on the type of surgical procedure, age and co-morbid conditions, overnight stay is recommended for monitoring, otherwise can be discharged the same day itself.
Q: How are the results of blepharoplasty assessed?
A: The results of a blepharoplasty procedure are best assessed by comparing pre- and post-operative photographs of the eye region of the patient. The initial swelling and bruising consequent to the surgery will subside and resolve with 1–2 weeks, the final results of the blepharoplastic correction may become apparent after several months.
A: Bruising and swelling generally subside in 10 to 14 days, after which you may feel comfortable in joining back work.
Q: How long do the results of Blepharoplasty last?
A: For some people, results of surgery may last a lifetime, in others; droopy eyelids may recur as you will continue to age naturally. Continuous sun protection is important to maintain results.


PEOPLE may be on tenterhooks over Brexit but there are indications that the local economy is still performing well, with unemployment falling again in February.
There were 4,876 signing on the Live Register in February, down from 5,045 in January. Year on year, the number signing on is down by 939, or 16% of the February 2018 total.
West Clare County Councillor Ian Lynch works in construction and he said there has been an improvement. "It's more positive than it has been. In the construction sector, on a national scale, there has definitely been a pick-up but in the Mid-West Region, there is no major activity. What I'm finding is that the smaller contractors, who are doing houses and extensions and stuff, are actually gone a little bit quieter. But while there is no huge demand for work, they're still tipping away; there aren't long spells of three or four weeks out of work.

FDI in India : Mauritius witness a 63, 9 % decline
Secure Services (Mauritius) opens Rwanda subsidiary
La SBM veut multiplier son nombre de succursales par 4 en Inde
Maurice et son deuxième miracle économique
La balance commerciale de Maurice est moins déficitaire
Mauritius, the favourite hotspot of foreign investors to route their investments to India, has witnessed a 69.3 per cent decline in foreign direct investment (FDI) in the first six months ended September 2018, according to data released by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). Singapore which overtook Mauritius has turned out to be the preferred country for routing FDI with a 77.77 per cent jump in investments.
FDI through Mauritius declined to $3 billion in the first months of the current fiscal from $9.8 billion in the same period of last year, pushing it to the second spot in the FDI chart. However, FDI through Singapore rose to $8.0 billion from $4.5 in the same period of last year. "Country-wise, Singapore and Mauritius remained top source countries in H1 of 2018-19. Importantly, FDI equity flows routed through Mauritius declined sharply reflecting the impact of the amended DTAA (double tax avoidance agreement). Notwithstanding the revised DTAA between India and Singapore in December 2016, the latter remained a top FDI investor in India," the RBI said in its 'Mid-year external sector review'.
New Delhi, capital city of India
After the DTAA amendment, India gets taxation rights on capital gains arising from alienation of shares acquired on or after April 1, 2017, in a company resident in India with effect from financial year 2017-18, while simultaneously protection to investments in shares acquired before April 1, 2017, has also been provided, the RBI said. Further, in respect of such capital gains arising during the transition period from April 01, 2017 to March 31, 2019, the tax rate is 50 per cent of the domestic tax rate of India, subject to the fulfillment of the conditions in the Limitation of Benefits Article. "Taxation in India at full domestic tax rate will take place from financial year 2019-20 onwards," the RBI said.

Singapore accounted for 40 per cent of the total FDI of $20.1 billion in the first half of fiscal 2019. Total FDI declined marginally from $22.0 billion in first six months of the previous year. Japan came third in the FDI chart with investments of $1.8 billion in the first six months as against $0.7 billion in the same period a year ago and the Netherlands fourth $1.5 billion ($1.9 billion).
FDI inflows since April 2000 has been routed through Mauritius and Singapore which enjoyed special status under the DTAA signed with India in 1982 and 1994, respectively. The DTAA provided for a capital gains tax exemption to resident entities of these countries on transfer of Indian securities. These agreements were amended in 2016 with the purpose of source-based taxation of capital gains on shares, preventing round tripping of funds, curbing revenue loss and preventing double non-taxation.
In 2017-18, Mauritius was the top source of FDI into India with $13.41 billion investments followed by Singapore, whereas total FDI stood at $37.36 billion in the financial year, a marginal rise over the $36.31 billion recorded in the previous fiscal.

Peppa is a very popular pig in our house, just like most homes across the UK. Noah's been a fan ever since he was a baby and Ava has also followed suit! I'm so happy that I get to relive it all over again, yay for me! In all seriousness, it's great that they both like it because it means that there's at least one cartoon that they'll both happily sit and watch together. With the kids being such big fans, I was happy to have the chance to review one of the latest Peppa Pig toys from Trends UK.
We received the Count With Me Peppa Interactive Money Box for the purpose of this review, which I was delighted about as it looked like something both children would enjoy. As soon as Ava saw the box she started screaming "Peppa!" in the highest pitched voice you could ever imagine! She couldn't wait to play with it!
The money box is made from brightly coloured plastic and shaped just like Peppa Pig. It comes with 10 interactive plastic coins which display different characters, colours, and numbers. They are quite large, just the right size for little hands to grab.
I think this toy is pretty self-explanatory, you put the coins into the money box, which is entertaining enough for little ones but there's so much more to it than that. Batteries aren't supplied but once they've been added, the fun turns up a notch! There are two different modes of play and a total of eight different activities. Depending on which mode it's set to, Peppa will ask for different coins to be inserted. This is a great way for little ones to learn through play, whilst keeping them busy and entertained. Peppa recognises which coins have been inserted and will respond to the action.
Ava adores the Count With Peppa Interactive Money Box, I'd go as far as saying it's her new favourite toy! She spends so much time placing the different coins into the money box and then fishes them back out again. She also enjoys singing and dancing to the three songs that it plays. The three songs are hits from the TV show; The Rainbow Song, The Counting Song and Head, Shoulders, Knee's and Toes. I was so relieved that The Bing Bong song wasn't included!

'Always a runner': Auburn native tells story of sepsis recovery in memoir
Mary Catalfamo
Maria Papalia-Meier, an Auburn native, runs a half-marathon in Cape Cod years after a battle with sepsis from an untreated streptococcal infection.
Auburn native Maria Papalia-Meier was running with her neighbors in Plainville, Massachusetts, on a Monday in June 2014 when she first started to feel like she had the flu.
By Wednesday, she was being transported to the intensive care unit at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston for sepsis. The condition, which affects the bloodstream and could cause organ failure, was triggered by an untreated streptococcal infection.
"I laid in bed for three days thinking I had the flu, and actually if I laid there for another hour, I would've been dead because we had no idea how sick I was," she said.
Papalia-Meier tells the story of her recovery from sepsis and the mindset of perseverance that pushed her to run again in the book "I am a Runner: The Memoirs of a Sepsis Survivor," which she recently published with co-writer Pamela Ackerson.
Papalia-Meier graduated from Auburn High School in 1992 and attended Cayuga Community College for two years before transferring to Georgia Southern University. She currently lives near Boston, but will be back in Auburn for a book signing event July 24 at Historic Grounds Coffee on Genesee Street downtown.
"I never wanted to be the person that looked in the mirror and said, 'I remember when I used to.' I wanted to be the person that did. And I think all those things come across in the book," Papalia-Meier said.
Her doctors told her that she was the sickest person in the hospital for a while, and she spent seven weeks there altogether. The medication she was on to keep her organs working cut off the flow of blood to her extremities, turning her feet black from the ankles to the tips of her toes.
By October, Papalia-Meier knew she had to have all of her toes amputated.
Her doctors suggested she try to find another sport.

"Once you're a runner — and runners know — you're always a runner. There is no other sport," she said.
She saw a second chance in the form of a running clinic at the Spaulding Hospital in Cambridge, which she noticed while she was still in the hospital and had to be taken outside in a wheelchair.
"I would look at the sign and I would say, 'I don't know when it's going to be, but when I'm ready to run again, these are the people who are going to help me,'" she said.
When she got out of the hospital in August, Papalia-Meier said she weighed 92 pounds and couldn't walk 5 feet without getting tired. She worked with a personal trainer for a year to get her strength back. A couple years later, she got into the running clinic, where she learned how to return to the sport that she loves without the use of her toes.
"It definitely took me a while to learn how to run with my new feet," she said. "I don't risk anything now because running is so important to me that I run the proper way now even if I have to run a little bit slower."
Papalia-Meier is now back to running races, and completed her first half-marathon last September in Cape Cod. She's planning to do another one in October.
"It was something difficult that I was able to do because I was passionate about it. I had a goal set and I lived every day toward that goal," she said.
Papalia-Meier believes her book, which is available for preorder now, gives a tough love approach to "defeating predetermined opinions and self-imposed limitations." She also wanted to spread awareness about the signs of sepsis.
"I want people to know that no matter what somebody tells you — like the doctors told me I'd never run again — if you know in your heart that you can do something, then you need to find a way to do it," she said.
"I am a Runner: The Memoirs of a Sepsis Survivor" by Maria Papalia-Meier and Pamela Ackerson is available on Amazon.
