Mesothelioma is a type of most cancers that is most of the time attributable to inhalation or publicity to asbestos that are a set of six naturally occurring silicate minerals exploited commercially for his or her fascinating bodily properties. Cohen M, Creaven PJ, Fossieck BE Jr et al. (1977). Cogliano, VJ; Baan, R; Straif, Ok; Grosse, Y; Lauby-Secretan, B; El Ghissassi, F; Bouvard, V; Benbrahim-Tallaa, L; Guha, N; Freeman, C; Galichet, L; Wild, CP (21 December 2011). Policy interventions to decrease passive smoking in public areas comparable to restaurants and workplaces have change into more frequent in lots of Western countries 77 Bhutan has had an entire smoking ban since 2005 78 while India introduced a ban on smoking in public in October 2008.
Epigenetic modifications—resembling alteration of DNA methylation , histone tail modification, or microRNA regulation—might lead to inactivation of tumor suppressor genes. 4 important histological subtypes are recognised, although some cancers could comprise a mix of various subtypes, 66 resembling adenosquamous carcinoma. For NSCLC, the perfect prognosis is achieved with complete surgical resection of stage IA disease, with up to 70% 5-year survival.
Most cancers screening makes use of medical exams to detect disease in giant groups of people who don't have any signs. Small-cell lung most cancers – a less widespread type that usually spreads sooner than non-small-cell lung cancer. Typically of early-stage NSCLC, elimination of a lobe of lung ( lobectomy ) is the surgical treatment of choice. This is because smoking involves regularly inhaling quite a lot of totally different poisonous substances.
This will reveal an obvious mass, widening of the mediastinum (suggestive of spread to lymph nodes there), atelectasis (collapse), consolidation ( pneumonia ) or pleural effusion 7 CT imaging is often used to offer more information about the kind and extent of disease. In small-cell lung carcinoma (SCLC), the cells include dense neurosecretory granules ( vesicles containing neuroendocrine hormones ), which give this tumor an endocrine/paraneoplastic syndrome affiliation.
Pie chart displaying incidences of non-small cell lung cancers as compared to small cell carcinoma shown at right, with fractions of smokers versus non-people who smoke shown for each type. Main lung cancers themselves mostly metastasize to the brain, bones, liver and adrenal glands 6 Immunostaining of a biopsy is commonly helpful to find out the unique source.

Spring-Summer '09 Idea Book and Catalog Open House
On Saturday January 31st I hosted an Open House for Stampin' Up!'s brand new Spring-Summer '09 Idea Book and Catalog. I did 2 "make and take" projects- a Valentine card and a Lip Balm Holder. I also offered a freestyle card buffet where the ladies could go wild and make their own Valentine's Day cards. There were goodie bags and a door prize as well. We had the best caramel brownies I have ever tasted, thanks to chef Marle who I hope will be available to cater all of my events! I made a Red Velvet cake too, and that was very well received. Who knew Red Velvet cake batter could be so messy. I got it all over the kitchen, in the carpet, in my hair, on my face...you get the picture. I had so much fun sharing my love for stamping and making new friends. The event was a wonderful success and I have made a slideshow that you can see below.

Nevertheless, as a consequence of incorrect Docker parameters, Kibana and Elasticsearch ports had been being revealed on to the network allowing users to bypass both the UFW firewall and the Apache proxy and access Kibana and Elasticsearch straight with no authentication.

A Person's First Name Cannot Be Changed On the Ground of Sex Reassignment
Petitioner invoked his sex reassignment as the ground for his petition for change of name and sex. As found by the trial court:
Petitioner filed the present petition not to evade any law or judgment or any infraction thereof or for any unlawful motive but solely for the purpose of making his birth records compatible with his present sex. (emphasis supplied)
Petitioner believes that after having acquired the physical features of a female, he became entitled to the civil registry changes sought. We disagree.
The State has an interest in the names borne by individuals and entities for purposes of identification.[11] A change of name is a privilege, not a right.[12] Petitions for change of name are controlled by statutes.[13] In this connection, Article 376 of the Civil Code provides:
ART. 376. No person can change his name or surname without judicial authority.
This Civil Code provision was amended by RA 9048 (Clerical Error Law). In particular, Section 1 of RA 9048 provides:
SECTION 1. Authority to Correct Clerical or Typographical Error and Change of First Name or Nickname. – No entry in a civil register shall be changed or corrected without a judicial order, except for clerical or typographical errors and change of first name or nickname which can be corrected or changed by the concerned city or municipal civil registrar or consul general in accordance with the provisions of this Act and its implementing rules and regulations.
RA 9048 now governs the change of first name.[14] It vests the power and authority to entertain petitions for change of first name to the city or municipal civil registrar or consul general concerned. Under the law, therefore, jurisdiction over applications for change of first name is now primarily lodged with the aforementioned administrative officers. The intent and effect of the law is to exclude the change of first name from the coverage of Rules 103 (Change of Name) and 108 (Cancellation or Correction of Entries in the Civil Registry) of the Rules of Court, until and unless an administrative petition for change of name is first filed and subsequently denied.[15] It likewise lays down the corresponding venue,[16] form[17] and procedure. In sum, the remedy and the proceedings regulating change of first name are primarily administrative in nature, not judicial.
RA 9048 likewise provides the grounds for which change of first name may be allowed:
SECTION 4. Grounds for Change of First Name or Nickname. – The petition for change of first name or nickname may be allowed in any of the following cases:
(1) The petitioner finds the first name or nickname to be ridiculous, tainted with dishonor or extremely difficult to write or pronounce;
(2) The new first name or nickname has been habitually and continuously used by the petitioner and he has been publicly known by that first name or nickname in the community; or
(3) The change will avoid confusion.
Petitioner's basis in praying for the change of his first name was his sex reassignment. He intended to make his first name compatible with the sex he thought he transformed himself into through surgery. However, a change of name does not alter one's legal capacity or civil status.[18] RA 9048 does not sanction a change of first name on the ground of sex reassignment. Rather than avoiding confusion, changing petitioner's first name for his declared purpose may only create grave complications in the civil registry and the public interest.
Before a person can legally change his given name, he must present proper or reasonable cause or any compelling reason justifying such change.[19] In addition, he must show that he will be prejudiced by the use of his true and official name.[20] In this case, he failed to show, or even allege, any prejudice that he might suffer as a result of using his true and official name.
In sum, the petition in the trial court in so far as it prayed for the change of petitioner's first name was not within that court's primary jurisdiction as the petition should have been filed with the local civil registrar concerned, assuming it could be legally done. It was an improper remedy because the proper remedy was administrative, that is, that provided under RA 9048. It was also filed in the wrong venue as the proper venue was in the Office of the Civil Registrar of Manila where his birth certificate is kept. More importantly, it had no merit since the use of his true and official name does not prejudice him at all. For all these reasons, the Court of Appeals correctly dismissed petitioner's petition in so far as the change of his first name was concerned.

Poetry – Issue 22 | April 2015
Three poems by R L Swihart
I'm in Dresden. Over-Ibised Prager Strasse. Below me: three alien globes
spraying water. Above me: swallows or swifts (feathered boomerangs
answering to no one's hand), I can never tell the difference
With one ear, I feel like the son of a mantid and a clam. Oddly enough,
my family has dubbed me Cyclops
I follow the swallows, search in vain for razor and cream, reminisce with
the little green man ("That was your brother in Berlin?"), order a döner
before the kiosks close
I'm in Dresden. Zwinger. Semper. Neumarkt. Frauenkirche is once again
Frauenkirche and not just a pile of rubble. The black stones are diriges
floating in the new cream:
"Old and new stones have been joined to give a clear, meaningful
indication that the past is always part of the future
and that wounds can heal."
Seems "swift" is more fitting, but the birds aren't saying a word
Uwe (reeking of Rauchen) meets me in the elevator lobby. His eyes are curious
slits in yellow pouches. Narrow lenses magnify the slits. He smiles and asks,
"English?" "No, American." "Uuuuu. Can you guess which door will open
first?" Then there's a bell and two arrows pointing up
About the author

What is it?
This is the Maserati Quattroporte Sport GTS. Last year the Masaerati Quattroporte was given a mild facelift, and at the same time the 4.7-litre V8 engine from the GranTurismo S became available as an option.
Now the range has been extended further with the introduction of this top-end 4.7-litre model, the Maserati Quattroporte Sport GTS.
'Top end' in most luxury car terms might equal more speed, but it would also mean more comfort. But this is Maserati. So out go the Skyhook adaptive dampers (replaced by more sporting passive ones), down comes the suspension (by 15mm at the front and 11mm at the rear) and up goes the power and rev limiter.
Okay, so the power's up by only 8bhp (to 433) and the limit by 100rpm (to 7200rpm). But there's more to it than that. The power is up because the exhaust has an active valve which, if you press a button on the dash, sends gases out without damping a great deal of their sound.
Advances in automatic gearbox software, meanwhile, have allowed the rev limit to increase. Apparently autos and high-revving engines aren't naturally suited to each other, so it's only recently that the software has allowed it.

Pear and Vanilla Butter
6 comments:
Hi Lucy, that looks dddddddelicious.ReplyDelete
Carol xx
p.s. apologies for all the messy keyboards after my last comment.
Looks amazing I am going to bookmark that right now--- Have you seen my recipe foe Churchyard Chutney as that is seriously based on applesReplyDelete
Kindest Regards Linda
Oh Lucy... that sounds DEEEE-LISH... I have a bunch of apples sitting on my counter... can you give me the link where you got the instructions or should I just copy and paste yours? My grandfather used to make huge batches of apple butter in the pioneer days in Oklahoma and I even have this big wooden stirrer that he made himself! Hugs, Teresa :-)ReplyDelete
Carol, you have given us a few good laughs thank you xReplyDelete
Linda I will check out your chutney recipe my apple tree looks like it may have a bumper year! :)
Teresa, I think I googled Apple Butter, it is all very approximate and to taste. I filled the crock pot to the top with peeled and chopped apples, I did add about 300mls of apple juice, but I wouldn't add liquid next time. I added 2lb of sugar and I love cinnamon so I put in lots. Then because the crockpot was full it was on high for the day then you remove the lid for a further couple of hours. To reduce the liquid. If you are used to making jams and jellies you know when the set has been reached or you have the consistency you like. It kept in sealed jars for about three months. It made lovely pies and crumbles. Your wooden stirrer would love to be put to good use again. :) x
Wow loving that! I bet it's delish. Make sure you keep some for the picnic ;o)ReplyDelete

'Lights in Looe Harbour'
Acrylic & Gold Leaf on paper 36 x 30cm
This is done in several layers, adding paint, scraping it off until the desired effect was achieved. The copy doesn't really do it justice as it has dark depths and glittering surfaces.
Inspired by the photo below taken late at night overlooking the harbour in Looe, Cornwall which I think is the best time to vist Looe when a variety of little shops are open in the cobbled streets and wonderful smells emerge from local fish restaurants.

Sidewalk Ordinance in the works for City of Blue RidgeUncategorized November 19, 2019
Blue Ridge, Ga. – City Council, along with the Mayor, say that a sidewalk ordinance is in the works. Still in the beginning stages, the sidewalk ordinance stands to address complaints and concerns expressed by local business owners and visitors.
Drew Dillard, owner of Juliana's Boutique, a clothing and accessory shop on East Main Street, spoke to council about his personal dealings with a particular street performer who regularly sets up in front of his store.
"For the last year I've had a street performer set up outside of my store over two dozen times," Dillard spoke during the Blue Ridge City Council meeting, "He has a donation bucket, a microphone stand, an umbrella , an umbrella stand, his guitar case, a speaker and a large piece of luggage that he uses to role all of his equipment in."
Dillard pointed out that this vendor essentially blocks the sidewalk and he has witnessed pedestrians having to walk into the street to get around the performer. He questioned if this would cause a liability issue for the city should there be an accident.
The noise from the performer, however, was Dillard's main complaint when addressing the council. In order to combat the music being played by the performer, Dillard says he has to close the doors to his shop and turn up his own music: "I have had dozens of customers who have complained to me about it, and there's nothing I can do because there's no ordinance in place."
Beyond the noise, liability, and inconvenience street vendors could cause in the city, Dillard also pointed out that "legitimate business owners" also pay a plethora of fees and taxes, including licenses fees, property taxes, and individual taxes. Local businesses also collect sales tax which in turn gets reinvested in our community.
Dillard suggested that vendors should pay a permit fee and that the city could designate areas for them to set up.
Upon Dillard completing his argument, Mayor Donna Whitener immediately replied that an ordinance was already being worked out.
Council member Nathan Fitts backed Dillard's complaints stating, "I've had several complaints and phone calls too."
"Just so you know we've already started that process," City Attorney James Balli spoke of city efforts on the matter.
Balli pointed out that the city has to do its due diligence in composing the ordinance and must be careful in the wording due to First Amendment rights. The City of McCaysville passed a vendor ordinance earlier this year that was met with controversy for this reason after a street preacher claimed that preaching was no longer allowed on the streets.
Regardless of the wait while an ordinance is being drafted, Balli did say referencing the safety and liability issues: "There may be some other things that can be done if someone is blocking the sidewalk."
New direction in City of Blue Ridge designCommunity, News January 14, 2019
Blue Ridge, Ga. – Change and growth have become inevitable in the City of Blue Ridge. Cindy Trimble, a board member of both the Planning Commission and the Zoning Board of Appeals, brought before the Blue Ridge City Council on Tuesday a small step in establishing direction, consistency, and beautification of our growing town.
Trimble along with help from council member Nathan Fitts rolled out conceptual drawings for new way-finding signs in Blue Ridge.
"It is critical that we have a plan for signage," Trimble stated due to growth, extra pedestrians, and extra traffic in the area.
The designs included newly structured street signs with stone bases, covered kiosks with maps of businesses downtown, and gateways to the city. Trimble noted that those traveling along Hwy. 515 often do not know where to turn to enter the downtown historic area.
The gateways would be strategically placed in five areas to direct visitors to downtown. Trimble proposed placing the gateways on East First Street and Hwy. 515 near Bill Holt Chevrolet, Cook Street and Hwy. 515 near Burger King, West First Street and Hwy. 515 near McDonald's intersection, Windy Ridge Road and Hwy. 515, and lastly Orvin Lance Drive and Hwy. 515 near CVS.
"Because these are city owned signs we cannot put them on the DOT right of way," Trimble said explaining that the signs would need to sit back on side streets away from Hwy. 515 itself.
The gateways, designed as archways with mountain scenery and stone pedestals, would be back lit as to be visible at night and are designed to hold seasonal posters to display festivals and happenings in town.
Suggestions came from council to perhaps look into painting the Windy Ridge Road overpass to go along with design and planning. This option would require grants and permits, as well as permission from the state, but Trimble noted that it has been done in other towns and would be worth looking into.
Discussion also arose about the business directory or "you are here" map kiosks. These freestanding structures will be double sided and not only display downtown businesses, but also parking areas and trolley stops.
"There is an opportunity for advertising on this and it is something that we haven't developed further," Trimble stated of the kiosks.
Trimble presented the idea of digital maps as an option: "That way as businesses change it would be easier to change it." She also noted that it would give more opportunity for advertising and that the advertisements might be a way to supplement income to purchase the new signage.
"The next step is to take some of these, if the council is comfortable with the design direction," Trimble explained the plan moving forward, "then what we will do is, we will have several of us get together and take a map of the city and we will go around and look at where we need some of these signs immediately."
Mayor Donna Whitener questioned, "Is the goal to replace all the signage in town?"
Trimble replied that it would just be key locations for the time being. She noted that certain areas of town might experience more street scaping such as Roberts Way and the City Park, and would not move forward in those areas until work is completed.
Council chose to move forward with obtaining pricing for the new way-finding signs and this information will be presented in a later meeting.

Changes to City of Blue Ridge alcohol ordinanceCommunity, News July 16, 2018
Blue Ridge, Ga. – Alcohol sales could be allowed until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays in the City of Blue Ridge, and area establishments could begin to offer drink specials.
These are just a few of the changes seen to the Blue Ridge City Alcohol Ordinance, which had its first reading at the July 10 Blue Ridge City Council meeting.
After months of discussion and special committee findings and recommendations several changes have been introduced into the amended ordinance.
Beyond the later time for alcohol sales on Fridays and Saturdays, new holidays have been added to the list for late night transactions. Previously, New Years Eve was the only noted day for an exemption to the 11:30 p.m. rule, but if passed, patrons can also enjoy a later drink on Labor Day, Memorial Day, and July 4.
An updated conflict of interest section now allows for city officials to own establishments that participate in alcohol sales. These officials, however, will have to abstain from voting on any matter that directly affects their business holdings.
Also new to the amended ordinance will be the ability for establishments to offer "reasonable drink specials" with specific guidelines that must be adhered to in order to offer these specials.

Syfan out as city attorney, Chief Scearce likely soon to followNews, Videos January 9, 2018
BLUE RIDGE, Ga. – Attorney James Balli, of the Marietta law firm of Sams, Larkin, Huff & Balli, was appointed Tuesday, Jan. 9, to replace David Syfan as city attorney during the first Blue Ridge City Council of the new year and administration. Balli's appointment was approved by the council four to one with incumbent Post 1 Council Member Harold Herndon voting against the appointment.
Mayor Donna Whitener also explained Balli's rate would be $175 an hour with no retainer fee, and only four applications for the position were received by the city.
Additionally, a decision was made later in the meeting to begin proceedings to replace Blue Ridge City Police Chief Johnny Scearce. After Whitener asked Balli to explain the council's options according to the city charter, Balli stated the council basically had two: either to "nominate and appoint a permanent police chief or you can make a motion … to allow someone to act as an interim chief until such time as the mayor and the city council approve a permanent chief."
When Whitener asked if it was possible to have a vacancy, Balli stated he did not recommend this.
After this, newly appointed Post 3 Council Member Kenneth Gaddis made a motion for Scearce to serve as interim police chief until the mayor and council are able to find a permanent police chief. After a second from new Post 5 Council Member Nathan Fitts, the council voted unanimously to approve the transition.
The two moves followed the oaths of office from incumbents Mayor Whitener and Council Members Herndon and Rhonda Thomas-Haight as well as incoming Council Members Gaddis, Fitts and Robbie Cornelius.
Thomas-Haight was also voted to serve as mayor pro tempore of Blue Ridge. Other appointments included Kelsey Ledford and Alicia Stewart remaining as city clerk and city treasurer, respectively, Robert Sneed as municipal court judge, Joseph Hudson as prosecuting attorney of court appointments and Welch, Walker & Associates as the city's designated auditor.
Local architect David Goodspeed was also approved to serve as interim building inspector for the city's Zoning and Land Development department. Thomas-Haight stated in her motion that Goodspeed would serve the city on a limited basis, working between 12 to 16 hours a week on average at the rate of $100 an hour.

Blue Ridge City Council to welcome new members before Tuesday meetingNews January 5, 2018
BLUE RIDGE, Ga. – New and incumbent council members as well as the mayor will take the oath of office Tuesday evening, Jan. 9, at the first Blue Ridge City Council meeting of the year. New members Kenneth Gaddis, Robbie Cornelius and Nathan Fitts will join incumbents, Post 1 Councilman Harold Herndon and Post 2 Councilwoman Rhonda Thomas and Mayor Donna Whitener. Gaddis, Cornelius and Fitts will assume the positions of Post 3, 4 and 5 council members, respectively.
Prior to the meeting, which will begin at 6 p.m., a one-hour, public meet-and-greet for the new city council will be held at City Hall at 5 p.m.
The meeting itself will see a number agenda items, including several appointments of city positions. Among those appointments will be mayor pro tempore, city attorney, city clerk, city treasurer, municipal court judge, the prosecuting attorney for the court and city auditor. The city charter requires the council to appoint or reappoint the above positions and offices at the start of a new term.
An agenda item tabled from the Dec. 12 meeting, a review of bids for a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) water system improvement project, is again expected to be discussed by the Council. At the last meeting, Mayor Whitener mentioned it was recommended by the city's water system engineering firm, Carter & Sloope, to proceed with the low bidder for the project, The Renee Group, Inc. of Doraville, Georgia. However, Councilwoman Angie Arp suggested the possibility of proceeding with the only local bidder, Holloway Trenching, LLC, of Morganton, whose bid was nearly $54,000 over that of The Renee Group. The decision to award the bid was tabled so as to allow the new council a chance to review and discuss the bids.
Also, the council is expected to discuss revision of its hazard and on-call policy for all city departments as well as discuss recent water issues within the Staurolite subdivision.
Contract quotes for annual routine and emergency maintenance at the city's waste water treatment facility are also scheduled to be reviewed by the council.
Several invoices and quotes are expected to be discussed and/or approved at Tuesday's meeting. Those pending purchasing approvals include two invoices from Carter & Sloope, one invoice from Heavy Constructors, Inc. and one invoice from Dwight Oliver Electrical Contractor, Inc. In addition, two quotes from Ellijay Telephone Company (ETC) – one for downtown stereo equipment, which was tabled at the Dec. 12 meeting and another for equipment for the Blue Ridge Police Department – are scheduled for discussion and potential approval.
Cesar Martinez, president of the Blue Ridge Business Association, is also slated to speak in public commentary.

Drinking is an art, not something to be done frivolously and foolishly.
Students at Liberty University should be the first to fight the stigma of college drinking by drinking with discernment and respect. Therefore, Liberty should take away the no drinking contract.
Christians are called to shed light on certain subjects, especially the ones that the world has got wrong. While alcohol is not meant to be consumed in the manner that the world does, it is not to be fully avoided. God gave us self-control for a reason. After all, our very own Savior drank.
If a Christian so chooses, he or she should go out a show the world how to drink without all the mess that goes along with it. Yes, it takes self-control and awareness, but it can be done and would provide a pathway for many others to follow.
If Liberty drops their ban, they would make a lot of noise in the Christian world and let others know that it is possible to drink responsibly.

U.S. consumer spending rose by the most in more than six years in April as households stepped up purchases of automobiles, suggesting an acceleration in economic growth.
"The better spending number will leave Q2 tracking higher, but the lack of acceleration in core PCE (inflation) means that there's no rush for the Fed to hike as early as June," said Royce Mendes, director and senior economist at CIBC Capital Markets in Toronto.
An increase in U.S. rates would raise the opportunity cost of holding gold, which does not earn interest. It would also bolster the dollar, making gold more expensive for buyers in other currencies.
Gold has been under pressure since release of the minutes from the Federal Reserve's April meeting boosted expectations of an imminent rate rise.
"If you get a pick-up in growth expectations in the U.S. and aggressive rate hikes from the Fed, then you could revisit the low of the year (at $1,127.80), but I see that as an unlikely scenario," ABN Amro analyst Georgette Boele said, adding the next support level is the 200-day moving average of $1,163.
Spot silver XAG= was headed for its biggest monthly loss since September 2014, down more than 10 percent. It touched a seven-week low in the previous session before recovering to $16.06 on Tuesday.
U.S stocks were flat to lower while the dollar .DXY was firm, hovering below its highest in two months against a basket of currencies.
Investors will monitor May U.S. private-sector ISM manufacturing data, due on Wednesday, and nonfarm payrolls on Friday. Solid readings could heighten expectations for a move as early as the Fed's June 14-15 policy meeting.
Spot platinum XPT= rose 1.4 percent to $976.99 an ounce, having hit its lowest in seven weeks in the previous session.
Spot palladium XPD= gained 0.8 percent to $543.81 but was still heading for its biggest monthly loss since November.

The 9th Dimensional Arcturian Council ~ The Actions You Take
"Greetings. We are the Arcturian Council. We are pleased to connect with all of you.
It is never a question of whether or not you should do something or should not do it. It is always a question of whether what you are considering doing is representative of the vibration that you want to be in. You first need to decide what vibration you want to hold, what vibration you want to emanate, to share with the universe. And then you need to familiarize yourselves with that vibration by holding it, by consciously activating it within you.
This is how you come to an appropriate decision regarding a particular action. You can take yourself down the timeline that the action would take you down by feeling into it first and determining for yourselves whether that action and that timeline feel similar to the vibration that you want to hold. You have to ask yourselves whether it resonates or not first.
Instead, most of you are making your decisions around your actions based on what you think they will get you, or you make those decisions based upon obligation or tradition, habit, or whether you think that action is something that will get you the approval of others. All that you seek from your actions can be accessed by you directly by going within yourselves and feeling for the vibration.
Once you have felt the vibration that is most representative of what it is you want to experience in your life, then you have all the data that you need to make an informed decision. Now, you don't always know where an action will take you, but this is how you utilize your ability to discern. You feel into the timelines, you explore the action that you are considering vibrationally, and you make the decision that suits you the most.
Actions can be wonderful tools, but they are best utilized when you are taking an action out of the joy of participating in that action. Whenever an action is being used as a means to an end, it is usually a sort of dead end, and most of you can only keep up that sort of action for so long before you burn out. Let your actions be expressions of who and what you are, and decide who and what you are every day by determining what vibration you offer.
We are the Arcturian Council, and we have enjoyed connecting with you."

The scientific developments in the field of medical and medicine has gifted this sector real time sophistication. The treatment as well as the care from certain diseases has become extremely easy. One can easily avoid diseases like tetanus, polio, whooping cough and even hepatitis by injecting certain doses of vaccine into one's body. The treatment against these diseases has become equally comprehensive. The doctors can treat people with ease just because of the advance additions of modern sciences. The treatment has become pretty easy; a surgeon can carry surgical operations with ease today If you want free advice from a clinical negligence solicitors you might want to use a no win no fee claim service. It has never been as easy to treat as it has become now days. But instead of rendering hundred percent results to people some medical practitioners are causing people agony and restlessness. They are used to operate with carelessness and this is what cause people to panic under certain scenarios. Patients used to pay heavy dues in availing certain treatments and it becomes really perplexing when they hear of reactions or bad operations. The situations become very tense for patients when they find it difficult to recover despite spending huge amount of money in their treatment.
It also happens at times that people receive deteriorations or deformities after going through certain treatments. This is what happens when people are subjected to laser therapies and they find in the end that they have developed allergies instead of getting glowing skin. Tell you what; it is never a treatment method that renders dullness to people but it always depends upon the person or practitioner who conducts the operation. It is this person who is at fault. The negligence at work or maltreatment leads to mishaps. The mishaps never takes place automatically something always goes wrong on one end. The clinical negligence is the single factor that cause people pay the double price. One can have better results from a specific treatment by ruling this factor out. You can simply achieve the intended results from a certain treatment technique by ruling out the negligence factor. The treatments are always proven procedures against a specific condition and they cannot just prove useful for one but harmful for the other without any reason. The professional vigilance counts in making a treatment work for a certain person and you will always require avoiding carelessness if you want to achieve intended results. You can simply avoid it by using your genius and adopting the cautionary measures.
It is always good for you to get full comprehension of a specific treatment method before letting your practitioner apply it. It will let you know the pros and cons of that technique and you become capable of avoiding mishaps to a greater extent. It is also useful to visit a doctor that is well known for result oriented practices. It becomes especially important when you are going for extraordinary treatment procedures. Visiting a less known can increase the likelihood of clinical negligence while it can be reduced in other case. One can also consult a medical negligence solicitor as it can also prove useful in certain instances.

Search Engine Optimization November 28th, 2012
There was a time when purchasing an exact match domain name guaranteed a top slot in search results. This, as a result, prompted many webmasters to register their website name based on their targeted keyword(s). However, Google recently unleashed changes and updates in its algorithm that have significantly impacted the way domain names are defined and detected. Anchor text and EMDs have been considered one of the best SEO practices till now. This latest tweak by Google has reduced the importance that EMDs or exact match domains have held for a long time on search engine results.

Google's EMD Update and the Fall of Short-Sighted SEOs
A website address or URL that focuses on or comprises of keywords and not the brand or company name is called an EMD. These keywords match the search query or word precisely. For example, if you want to create a website targeting the keywords 'top world attractions', the EMD of the website will be topworldattractions.com.
An EMD is known to provide a boost to your website ranking in search engines, as the keyword features in the name of the domain itself.
In late September this year, Matt Cutts, Google's webspam head, announced in a tweet that a small algorithmic change in Google's search engine in the future would bring down low-quality 'exact-match' domains in Google's search results.
Shortly, many websites' rankings were affected due to this update and all of these websites' domain names comprised of keywords. However, Google maintains that this update is aimed at decreasing the number of exact match domains of low quality that come up in search results and are not necessarily EMD websites.
The focus of Google has shifted more towards organic search, which is an integral aspect of online marketing mix. Designed to improve Google's search results quality, the intention behind this update is to provide more relevant and up-to-date results. The quality of a website is a subjective issue; however, there are some obvious signs such as excess usage of keyword and cookie-cutter design that indicate the worthlessness of a website. Another one of these is excessive backlinks that amount to spamming. It is such EMD websites that are the targets of this update.
Assessing your website objectively is the key to determining its utility to users. If you feel that you would use your website even if it was not yours, chances are that the content is relevant and useful. However, if your website domain name is an EMD, you might want to purchase a new domain name and transfer data to your new website. Having an EMD might result in the washout of years of hard work, though it also gives you the opportunity of buying a new domain and starting afresh. Though starting afresh might sound tiring and repetitive, it would give the webmaster an opportunity to correct his past mistakes relating to SEO and put up things in a much professional manner.
Building links to your new website as you gradually phase out the one on an EMD is the next step in the process. Introduce your new website to users and focus on building a better brand through it.
However, exact match domains still come with plenty of benefits for website owners. They help attract social mentions with keywords as well as keyword anchor text. Moreover, EMDs also help in the marketing and branding of a website. As quality is a subjective issue, if the content and information provided on a website is useful for the end user, a website may not be drastically affected by the latest Google Algorithm update.
Have you seen any search result changes for EMDs?
7 Comments
We can see lot of comments like "content is king", need to book a new domain etc. is there any proof. i mean anybody successesed in these activities for defeating EMD.
Exact match is still working.. Only thing that you have to do is – Keep standards. There are lots of companies that use EMDs get better organic results..
Very nice post, I've been wondering this for a while and you answered a lot of my questions. I don't think they'll entirely discredit EMD's, but I do think they will be matched down a little bit. It's just proving to me that what everyone has been saying is starting to become more true; content is king.
@Alex No, they don't! Top quality content got obliterated just as much as low quality. Google cannot detect quality content, why does no-one actually get this? The EMD update was a blunt instrument that did much collateral damage.
Good post, Jennifer. Google is aiming to decrease the rankings of low quality sites, but if your site has good quality content on it (even if it has an EMD) I would not register a new domain name and move the content over. EDMs with quality content on them still rank very well.

Every business should have a website in this day and age, but it isn't just enough to have an online leaflet of your services and some contact details alone. There is more to enticing the right audience and turning them from potential customers to returning customers. One way in which some businesses achieve an improvement in ROI is to apply live web chat agents as part of the website experience for users.
There are a number of benefits to hiring virtual assistants to act as the gateway to your business in the form on web chat agents.
Build Trust with the User – When a user enters your website they are doing so as they wish to evaluate the solutions you offer to their problem, whatever that problem is. As they take on board the information you have presented on your website there is a critical stage where a web chat agent can help to build trust by engaging with the user. Being able to offer an instant answer to a question helps to show a user that they would be catered for as a customer.
Educate and Involve the User – By being in place to answer any questions the user has, you are not only helping them to trust you as a vendor, but also to educate them on the service and/or products you are selling. This is crucial in order to help fill in the information gaps that might not be present or simple to find on the page.
Offer a Personal Touch – A live and present web chat agent also offers the user a personal shopper in many ways. Rather than a homogenous marketing resource that could be utilised by anyone, a web agent offers a personalised touch that makes the user feel important. This can be vital in building long-term relationships and turning users into not only customers, but also loyal customers that stick around, refer and return.
Improve Website and Service – Having the ability to chat with users live, also allows for feedback at the moment of use. A live web chat programme can have an inbuilt feedback form or survey button that allows for fast answers from a user once a conversation is over. You can even have more detailed chats with users to assess and tweak things such as the design of the website, its flow, motivators for customers and much more. Optimising your website based on web chat feedback can have a real impact on your success as a business.
Improve Customer Support Processes – Having a live web chat agent present on your website also provides an immediate chance for customers to dialogue with customer support agents. For many consumers, the laboured network of telephone customer support menus is infuriating. A chat box on a website that works is a way to significantly improve the view that your customers have of your company.
Keepoint has a range of virtual assistant services that can help new, small and ever-growing businesses to unlock potential and maximise long-term profits. If you would like to find out more, please feel free to contact us and speak to a friendly member of our team. We offer flexible, affordable packages with bespoke options for your specific business needs. We look forward to hearing from you.
You can also join our Google+ Community "Startup in Britain" which is packed with help, resources and articles to get you started. Use it to get tips, advice and start building your network!

CHICAGO - Darius Bazley isn't out to change the college basketball landscape or even inspire other young players.
As a potential preps-to-pros player and former five-star recruit, the 6-foot-9 forward from Cincinnati is a unique athlete trying to win over NBA scouts without having played last season.
He decommitted from Syracuse. He reneged on his initial idea to play in the G League. Unlike other players in the past who skipped college looking for an alternate route to the NBA, he didn't play overseas for a year either.
Instead, Bazley was on no team and worked as an intern for New Balance in a carefully constructed endorsement deal that will pay $1 million. But don't call him a pioneer.
"I'm not a basketball activist," Bazley said this week at the NBA draft combine at Quest Multisport in Chicago. "I just did what was best for me. I think the options for players, there's a lot of them. They're out there."
But until the NBA changes its age-limit rule - which it's expected to do in the near future - players who aren't keen on playing in college for a year must get creative.
Jalen Lecque, who also participated at the combine, played at the New Hampshire prep school Brewster Academy as a fifth-year high school student last season. He still can withdraw from the draft by the May 29 deadline and fulfill a scholarship awaiting him at North Carolina State.
Lecque, a 6-3 guard from New York, was a top-35 recruit in the 2019 class. He apparently performed well enough Thursday, recording the event's top vertical leap of 43 inches, and opted out of Friday's scrimmages.
"There are other options to get here (besides college)," Lecque said. "I'm just trying to fulfill my dream of trying to get to the NBA. If I have to go to college to do it, I just want to get there and be successful there."
The rules that have steered high school players to attend college for at least a year are shifting.
Currently, players must be 19 years old and one year removed from their original high school class to be eligible for the NBA draft. That system essentially has created the era of the one-and-done player who competes in college as a freshman before jumping to the pros.
The NBA submitted a formal proposal to the National Basketball Players Association to lower the eligibility age to 18, a rule change that many expect to kick in before the 2022 draft.
New rules by the NCAA's board of governors and Division I board of directors following an FBI investigation into college basketball recruiting allow players to hire agents for the draft process and retain their eligibility. Under previous rules, players with remaining college eligibility could not hire an agent, and if they did, they forfeited their option to return to school.
You have free articles remaining.
"There shouldn't be any barriers," Lecque said. "If a guy is ready his senior year (of high school), go. If a guy is not ready, go to college. I feel like there should be a choice."
As players await more changes, a few carve out their own paths.
Brandon Jennings was the first to find a loophole after the NBA imposed the age-limit rule in 2006. He skipped college and played in Italy for a year before entering the 2009 draft, in which the Bucks selected him 10th.
Emmanuel Mudiay opted out of his commitment to SMU and played in China before being selected No. 7 by the Nuggets in 2015. Terrance Ferguson decommitted from Louisville and played in Australia before the Thunder drafted him at No. 21 in 2017.
Anfernee Simons sat out a year and was selected 24th in the 2018 draft by the Trail Blazers. Mitchell Robinson was taken 36th in that draft after decommitting from Western Kentucky to work on his game.
Certain elite prospects who are at least 18 can sign G League "select contracts" of $125,000. Bazley reconsidered after saying that was his plan.
"At the time I was about 190 (pounds)," said Bazley, who weighed in at 208.4 pounds at the combine. "To go to the grit and grind of a league like that, to be thrown in that, might not have been best for me. The G League doesn't have a high reputation for its travel and how they eat and how they're treated. We didn't think the best was for me to be a kid thrown into man's league."
Lecque, who will turn 19 in June, understands he needs to develop to be an NBA point guard. But he said his athleticism and maturity will help him in the NBA - if he goes that route.
Lecque said he's in a win-win situation right now as he decides his next step: a year in college or trying the pros.
"It's a little tough to throw a four-year scholarship away," he said. "Just having a scholarship to a school is an accomplishment itself. When the NBA calls, you answer. I didn't want to dismiss it. You never know. Guys get picked up nobody knows all the time."
Fans have strong opinions on whether players should have to play at least a year in college before heading to the NBA. Players being paid in college is also a divisive issue among fans but can drive some players from school.
"I lot of people disagree with making this decision, people saying I'm not ready, people saying I'm too young," Lecque said. "But I've always dealt with that."
To players in similar situations, Lecque said his unique path to the NBA is a viable one.
"I would recommend at least try it," he said. "What's the worst-case scenario? Go to school. And that's not worst-case. I'm not stressing over it. It's basketball. I'm going to get better."
