The designed FTX covering the North, North-Central provinces and a section of the Eastern province is to be launched accordingly during 18 - 24 October under the command of Brigadier Jayantha Gunaratne as the Exercise Director 'FTX - Harmattan - 2' who is also the General Officer Commanding, 55 Division and a former Director Operations at the Army Headquarters.
The 'FTX - Harmattan - 2', comprised of 10 Regiments of the Army is made up of Infantry troops with Armour, Mechanized Infantry, Combat Support and Combat Service Support elements and will exercise their challenges under simulated threat conditions prevailing in Mali. A separate Headquarters (HQ-EXCON) staff will simultaneously monitor the applicability of standard drills against varying scenarios and will recommend improvements for effectiveness of the CCC.
The 'FTX - Harmattan - 2' of 680 km in distance will cover the general areas of Chundikulam, Manalkadu, Pooneryn, Veditalativu, Mannar, Oyamaduwa, Mahadiwulwewa, Panmadawachchiya, Therunamaranwadiya, Mullaittivu, Paranthan and Kuweini Junction at Iyakkachchi.
The CCC is commanded by Lieutenant Colonel K.L.I Karunanayake with Major P.G.J Suriyasena as his Second in Command. The CCC, bound for Mali includes Army personnel of the Vijayabahu Infantry Regiment (VIR), the majority in the contingent as well as members of the Sri Lanka Armoured Corps (SLAC), Sri Lanka Engineers (SLE), Sri Lanka Signal Corps (SLSC), Mechanized Infantry Regiment (MIR), Corps of Engineer Services (CES), Sri Lanka Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (SLEME), Sri Lanka Army Service Corps (SLASC), Sri Lanka Army Ordnance Corps (SLAOC), together with members of the Sri Lanka Army Medical Corps (SLAMC), ready with a Level One hospital for Mali. 20 Officers and 240 Other Rankers will undertake those responsibilities in Mali as the replacement for the first CCC of the Sri Lanka Army who are scheduled to return upon completion of their one-year long tenure in Mali in December, this year.
A total of 19,000 members of the Sri Lanka Army have to-date served in UN peacekeeping missions either as Combat Troops, Military Observers (156), Staff Officers or as Assistants to Staff Officers in several parts of the world. As of today 150 Army members in Lebanon are serving the UN Interim Force (UNIFIL), 66 members in the UN mission in Sudan with Level 2 hospital in South Sudan (UNMISS), 65 all ranks in MINUSMA (Mali), 26 Army Officers in UN Staff Officer Missions and a group of 18 Officers including 2 lady Officers in the Western Sahara, Congo, South Sudan, Central African Republic, Abyei and New York.

Not all cancers are created equal. Some low-grade prostate cancers, for instance, may never spread. Even some early-stage breast cancers may never turn deadly. Now some experts believe it's time to rethink what we call cancer. As Gina Kolata writes in this week's Science Times:
One thing is growing increasingly clear to many researchers: The word "cancer" is out of date, and all too often it can be unnecessarily frightening.
"Cancer" is used, these experts say, for far too many conditions that are very different in their prognoses — from "Stage 0 breast cancer," which may be harmless if left alone, to glioblastomas, brain tumors with a dismal prognosis no matter what treatment is tried.
It is like saying a person has "mental illness" when he or she might have schizophrenia or mild depression or an eating disorder.
Now, some medical experts have recommended getting rid of the word "cancer" altogether for certain conditions that may or may not be potentially fatal.
To learn more, read the full report, "'Cancer' or 'Weird Cells': Which Sounds Deadlier?" and then please join the discussion below.

25th – 26th May, Bruton, Somerset
Secure your doors and windows! The Batcombites are planning to raid Bruton again – as they did on 24 February 1641!
The English Civil War Society will re-enact this event on Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th May 2019 on Abbey Field as part of the Bruton 400 celebrations. A 'Living History' village will be on display from 11.00 am to 5.00 pm in the field next to Budgens at the West End of Bruton – representing the townspeople of Bruton in the 1640s. The soldiers of Bruton's militia will be trying to master their drill there – or probably sliding off to the pubs! From 3.15 pm on Saturday expect to see a mob of Batcombites coming through Plox towards Abbey Field where the Bruton militia will be assembling to defend your town. This will be repeated on Sunday 26 May, following the Parade through the town organised by the Bruton Community Partnership.
Have a look at the seventeenth century activities in the Living History.
The Militia will be led by the redoubtable Sir Charles Berkeley, an active Royalist, who lived in the Abbey House at the time. The Bruton Register records:
"All praise and thanks to God still give
For our deliverance Mathias Eve
By his great power we put to flight
Our raging foes the Batcombites
Who came to harry, burn and slay
And quite destroy our town this day."
Come and cheer on your Militia and drive the Batcombites back to their own homes.
The Marquess of Winchester's Regiment

FDNY team helps Texas firefighter in needPosted: Updated:
Members of the FDNY Disaster Assistance Response Team helped a fellow firefighter return to his home in Pearland, Texas Friday – days after it was severely damaged by floodwaters.
The firefighter they were helping had been working non-stop to save others in the community. Upon returning home, he found most of his possessions had been ruined.
When the FDNY team heard about his story, they decided to pitch in.
"We've seen this up close and personal after Sandy," said Lt. George Rico Diaz. "We finished our tour for the day, but we got enough energy to come over here and give a little extra to a brother in need."
The response team is comprised of some retired FDNY members.

This is an argument I've been hearing since Gen Two came out, but I think it's finally time to talk about this question. There are now seven generations and 720 Pokémon to choose from. So why is there such a strong belief from older fans that the original 151 are as good as it gets? Why are some fans so unwilling to consider the merits of the newer Pokémon (heck, even the older generations that aren't Gen One)?
What keeps us thinking that Pikachu and his original pals are so much better than the others? And is there any merit to this belief? I've been thinking a lot about this. Some of you may know that I've talked about Pokémon before. A few times now actually, but for those who didn't read my hesitance about Let's Go: Pikachu and Eevee, you don't know how long I've been a fan. See, I've been playing Pokémon since Red and Blue. I suffered through the days of link cables. I explored every region. I played the spin-off games (even the mobile games). I LOVE Pokémon. Basically, I've been around a while and I've seen every generation as they've come out.
But I've never understood why people cling so viciously to the original 151 like they are the end all be all of Pokémon perfection. It seems so narrow sighted in a world that contains so many exciting Pokémon in every generation. So I'm going to go over the reasons I think these people cling so dedicatedly to the first generation, and then I'm going to talk about why I think their view might be a little too narrow.
Nostalgia Goggles
I look at the world through what I call "Nostalgia Goggles" all the time. I look back on something fondly, only to go back and find out it wasn't what I remember. The original Pokémon (I'm thankful to say) is not that bad. It's harder than I remembered (especially once you get to Victory Road, that grind is brutal), but that doesn't change the fact that I have extremely deep, fond memories for Pokémon Blue and also Yellow. I loved the original 151 Pokémon. I bought a book and pored over their names and descriptions. It was an obsession. Pokémon was new and fresh to me, and it captivated my imagination. I never got as heavily into another gen.
But I took those nostalgia glasses off as the new generations came out because there have been some killer things to come from them. First gen didn't have dual typing or dark type. Not to mention almost no ghost, ice, or dragon type Pokémon– even though the types existed on the release of the game. Heck, you could almost forget they existed if you didn't need them for certain gyms. There are shortcomings to all games, even ones we love dearly.
Only Looking at the Worst Examples
Okay, yeah there have been some stinkers (some quite literally) in later seasons. Everyone knows, and mocks, the actual bag of trash, Trubbish, from Gen Five, or the living ice cream cone, Vanillite, also Gen Five. Or perhaps Binnacle from Gen Six (who only gets creepier when it evolves). Yeah, those might have been pretty far from what I would call "winning designs," but honestly, Gen One isn't without its own problems.
How about "rock with arms" Geodude? Or maybe we need to remember "magnet" followed by "three magnets stuck together" Magnemite and Magneton? Perhaps the best example is "angry ball" and "angry ball with fierce eyebrows" Voltorb and Electrode. My personal favorite for uncomfortable designs was the "group of angry eggs, one of which was already shattered and presumably dead" Eggsecute (there was nothing cute about that Pokémon). Once again, nothing is without fault. Gen One is just as guilty of uninspired designs as other generations, and honestly, we need to remember that.
Don't Miss Out on the Great, Because you Were too Busy Looking Back
Pokémon purists can like the first gen best — that's fine. I get it. I was obsessed, too. But there are so many fantastic Pokémon out there worth your time if you just give them a chance. Forget the weird — there's some of that in every generation — and let's for just a moment, focus on the great.
Let's focus on Pokémon like Blaziken, Houndoom, Lucario, Espeon, and Umbreon. All of those designs are entirely on point. We also got excellent additions like Mimikyu (who scares me) and Noivern. I could go on all day with awesome Pokémon who aren't in the original 151. I haven't even mentioned the incredible legendary designs. Lugia is a long-standing favorite of mine, all the way up to Solgaleo. These legendaries are the stars of their games, and Pokémon rarely disappoints with a lousy design where they are concerned.
Then there are the hidden gems, like a recent favorite of mine. I'm going to have to preface this with the words "hear me out" because I honestly started out hating this Pokémon. I picked it up as a placeholder in Black and then it never left my party. This Pokémon was a joke — a horrible, fluffy joke. Furfrou. Yes, the poodle.
I needed a sixth for my team, and it had decent HP. So, I added it and gave it the most pretentious French name I could think of, Francois (Pronounced Fran-SWAH). It wrecked gyms like it was designed for nothing more than carnage. But I needed a water type to surf, and that meant it was time to make room in my team, which meant the poodle had to go. I was ready to part with him, but when I tried to use surf on my team, just to see if any of my other team members could learn the move, I discovered Furfrou can learn surf.
So Francois the joke became one of my best Pokémon that entire game. It single-handedly (pawedly?) took down the fighting type member of the Elite Four, something a normal type shouldn't be able to do. I was so busy judging how dumb the idea of a Pokémon you could groom was, I almost missed out on the strongest Pokémon on my team. Oh yeah, and I always gave it the Dandy cut — might as well be dapper while you're kicking butt and taking names.
So, maybe give the weird ones a chance next time. Try them out and see. You might find that, like me, you end up loving a Pokémon you made fun of.
So, Are the Original 151 Pokémon the Best?
Sort of. They are what sparked everything, and began over 20 years of amazing games. They are the beginning. But the best? Well, I think there are new Pokémon who are every bit as good as the originals. I think we need to stop holding entire generations over others as better or perfect. There is no such thing as a perfect generation. We need to look at the Pokémon as individuals within their respective generations. I think, if you give it a chance, you will find that the death grip you might be holding on the first gen is holding you back, and expanding your view to all 720 Pokémon may reveal some new favorites you missed.

Some typical values of the corresponding shear stress capacities (rRd.c = Vri,c/bvd) arc given in chapter 8 (table 8.2).
5.1.2 The variable strut inclination method for sections that do require shear reinforcement
In order to derive the design equations the action of a reinforced concrete beam in shear is represented by an analogous truss as shown in figure 5.2. The concrete acts as the top
Figure S.2
Assumed truss model for t variable strut Inclination method compression member and as the diagonal compression members inclined at an angle 0 to the horizontal. The bottom chord is the horizontal tension steel and the vertical links are the transverse tension members. It should be noted that in this model of shear behaviour all shear will be resisted by the provision of links with no direct contribution from the shear capacity of the concrete itself.
The angle 0 increases with the magnitude of the maximum shear force on the beam and hence the compressive forces in the diagonal concrete members. It is set by EC2 to have a value between 22 and 45 degrees. For most cases of predominately uniformly distributed loading the angle 0 will be 22 degrees but for heavy and concentrated loads it can be higher in order to resist crushing of the concrete diagonal members.
The analysis of the truss to derive the design equations will be carried out in the following order:
1. Consideration of the compressive strength of the diagonal concrete strut and its angle 0\
2. Calculation of the required shear reinforcement AiW/s for the vertical tics:
3. Calculation of the additional tension steel /\s| required in the bottom chord member.
The following notation is used in the equations for the shear design
Asw = the cross-sectional area of the two legs of the link ,v = the spacing of the links c the lever arm between the upper and lower chord members of the analogous truss fyw| the design yield strength of the link reinforcement
/yk the characteristic strength of the link reinforcement
VKt| = the shear force due to the actions at the ultimate limit state
VEf = the ultimate shear force at the face of the support
VW(| = the shear force in the link
VWs the shear resistance of the links
VKl( mux the maximum design value of the shear which can be resisted by the
(1) The diagonal compressive strut and the angle 0
The shear force applied to the section must be limited so that excessive compressive stresses do not occur in the diagonal compressive struts, leading to compressive failure of the concrete. Thus the maximum design shear force Vrj max is limited by the ultimate crushing strength of the diagonal concrete member in the analogous truss and its vertical component.
With reference to figure 5.2, the effective cross sectional area of concrete acting as the diagonal strut is taken as bv x jcosW and the design concrete stress/al -/ck/l.5.
The ultimate strength of the strut = ultimate design stress x cross-sectional area concrete strut and its vertical component so that
= C/ck/1-5) x x zcos6) - R/ck/1-5) x (¿w x ccos 6»)] x sin0
which by conversion of the trigometrical functions can also be expressed as
In EC2 this equation is modified by the inclusion of a strength reduction factor (V[) for concrete cracked in shear. Thus v _ UKzv i x
where the strength reduction factor takes the value of V| 0.6(1 -/ck/250) and, pulling z = 0.9(/. equation 5.3 becomes
_ 0.9</ x x 0.6( 1 -/ck/2501/ck VRdm"" 1,5(cot0 + tan 8) 0.36£»wÎ/( 1 -/ck/250)/ck
and to ensure that there is no crushing of the diagonal compressive strut:
This must be checked for the maximum value of shear on the beam, which is usually taken as the shear force. Vec, at the face of the beam's supports so that
VWmax >
As previously noted EC2 limits 0 to a value between 22 and 45 degrees.
(i) With 0 = 22 degrees (this is the usual case for uniformly distributed loads) From equation 5.4:
If mux(22> < Vu lhen a larger value of the angle 0 must be used so that the diagonal concrete strut has a larger vertical component to balance VEd.
(ii) With 0 = 45 degrees (the maximum value of 0 as allowed by EC2) From equation 5.4:
which is the upper limit on the compressive strength of the concrete diagonal member in the analogous truss. When V|.;r > VRd.max(45)> from equation 5.7 the diagonal strut will be over stressed and the beam's dimensions must be increased or a higher class of concrete be used.
(Hi) With 0 between 22 degrees and 45 degrees
The required value for 0 can be obtained by equaling V|.j to Vr^™« and solving for i9 in equation 5.4 as follows:

Pastel is the surprising color trend for fall. An understandable palette for spring, and maybe even summer, but fall?!
Lately I have been making outfit after outfit with pale shades of blue, pink and even mint, and I absolutely love them! Just because pastels are not a typical color story for this time of year doesn't mean they can't be valid.
The more I delve into the world that is fashion blogging, I see how much influencers do just that; influence. Whether it be a magazine editor, engineer, teacher, blogger, celebrity, etc., in a world of immediate satisfaction via social media, they are the ones driving the trends. So in essence, all rules are off. People who might not even be trained in fashion, and who are solely known for their style, are the ones who control what we wear.
My latest blogger girlcrush is Carrie C of Wear+Where+Well– a down to earth stunner who makes looking fab seem absolutely effortless. Make sure to read her thoughts on how to wear mint green, and see below for my pastel-spiration.
Sidebar- I still get giddy when I feel like I out-trend a store or fashion site, but the worst part is you usually never see it until its already been shared by someone else. I am building my confidence in this field and forget sometimes that you can't be right 100% of the time. When I think something farfetched is going to be huge, I will usually write a post or shoot a look and just sit on it until I feel comfortable sharing. Which usually means until someone else does it first. I am working on this. An amazing online fashion site is Who What Wear and their influence and accuracy is incredible.

"In Which We Serve" and "The Cruel Sea" are two British war movies set in WWII. Both are set in WWII during the Battle of the Atlantic and follow the exploits of escort warships. The main characters are ship commanders, but the crews also get screen time. Both are proudly British in a stiff upper lip sort of way.
"In Which We Serve" was released in 1942. The movie is dominated by Noel Coward who stars as Capt. Kinross and also wrote the screenplay, wrote the score, and directed. In what might be the shortest opening narration the movie opens with "This is the story of a ship". The ship is the HMS Torrin which is sunk during the Battle of Crete fourteen minutes into the movie. Some of the crew, including Kinross, take refuge in a lifeboat. The film then settles into a series of flashbacks relating the stories of Kinross, Ordinary Seaman Blake (John Mills), and others. The various flashbacks contrast the lower, middle, and upper class strata on a ship. The scenes of family life are authentic and emotionally real. One highlight of the film is X-Mas dinners of three of the crew showing how the classes dealt with the war. It is apparent in each family gathering that the sailors love their ships more than their women and the women accept it.
All the characters are proper British. A sailor who cowardly flees his post (Richard Attenborough) is forgiven by the Captain and later redeems himself before dying from a dastardly German strafing while in the life-boat. When one of the officers is informed that his wife and mother are killed in the Blitz, he takes it stoically.
This is a great movie. It is extremely well-written, not surprising from Coward. The conversations ring true. The people talk like real people, not characters in a movie. The action scenes, filmed by David Lean, are well done. There is an interesting and instructive blend of sailor's lives and the lives of their women. It is not overly propagandistic which is amazing considering the timing of its release.
"The Cruel Sea" was released in 1953. It is based on the popular novel by Nicholas Monsarrat. The narrator tells us it is the story of the Battle of the Atlantic, of two ships, two crews, and the villain – the sea. The main characters are Lt. Commander Ericson (Jack Hawkins) and his Executive Officer Lockhart (Donald Sinden). Their first ship is a corvette, the HMS Compass Rose. The ship does convoy duty in bitter weather. Montages depict burning merchant ships and shipwrecked sailors. The sea is indeed cruel.
The movie examines command decisions. At one point, Ericson risks the ship to rescue survivors. In another, he plows through others to chase a u-boat they have located on sonar. He is stiff upper-lipped saying "we have to do these things and say our prayers at the end".
When they return to port, they find it has been bombed. The chief had earlier told a mate that he was going to marry the sailor's sister thus dooming one of them. (It turns out to be the sister whose houses is bombed.) Just like in IWWS, the chief takes the news stoically.
On their next cruise, the Compass Rose is suddenly hit by a torpedo and they abandon ship in appropriate chaos. This is one of the great ship-sinking scenes in cinema. The survivors spend the night in a raft until rescued. Ericson and Lockhart are assigned a new ship, a frigate. They go on the Murmansk run. The film uses real ships, not models. They track down and sink a u-boat. Upon picking up survivors, Lockhart remarks that they "don't look very different from us, do they?"
"The Cruel Sea" is a good movie. It is not rip-roaring which makes it a realistic depiction of sometimes boring convoy duty. The sea does play a major role. The weather is the biggest problem the crews face. This is one of the wettest movies ever made. It is a good examination of command and command relationships. Ericson and Lockhart grow to respect each other and form an effective team. The cinematography is excellent. The acting is very good.
These two movies make a great double feature if you want to learn about the British naval experience in WWII. They accurately reflect the dangers of convoy duty. They are realistic in their depiction of the class structure on board a small warship. "In Which We Serve" concentrates more on the home front and the women in the men's lives and "The Cruel Sea" concentrates more on shipboard life and tactics. They are both realistic in their combat scenes.

The first book in this series by Donald J. Sobol was released in 1963 but reissued in 1982, which allowed for a new generation of readers to meet the famous boy sleuth. The books center around a young boy who solves crimes in his hometown for customers during the summer when he runs a detective agency (only 25¢!) or for his father, the chief of police. Each book features 10 short mysteries for Encyclopedia and readers to solve and has a few reoccurring characters – Bugs Meany, the neighborhood bully who is often the reason for Encyclopedia's many cases; and Sally Kimball, Encyclopedia's feisty partner who has knocked out Bugs and wouldn't hesitate to do it again.
I used to read this series when I was younger, and they are still enjoyable as an adult. Since the books were written in the '60s, the language can be dated, but this usually just adds to the charm and humor. This series is definitely worth a try for fans of mysteries.

Somerset 337 (Trego 73, Azhar 72, Banton 59) beat Nottinghamshire 222 (Slater 58, Hales 54) by 115 runs
There will be no Lord's final for Alex Hales, not that even the most ardent county cricket follower would claim that was adequate compensation for missing out on a place in England's World Cup campaign. Instead, Hales was part of a Nottinghamshire side shouldered aside by Somerset in an emphatic manner that will bring delight in the south-west.
Somerset have reached Lord's the hard way. Since finishing third in South Group courtesy of a must-win floodlit tie against Surrey at Taunton on Tuesday night, they have seen off Worcestershire in the play-offs by 147 runs and now Nottinghamshire, this time by a margin of 115.
Hales' dismissal for 54, as he fell to his favoured square cut, was the fourth Nottinghamshire wicket to fall, on 135, in a sequence of four wickets for 25 in 45 balls which changed the complexion of the match. Craig Overton ran jubilantly into the off side, pursued by the rest of the Somerset team, the importance of the wicket apparent. Sometimes you don't have to just take a wicket, you have to kill a suspicion that fate is not on your side.
Somerset now contest the final of the last 50-over competition that will actually mean something and it is good that a county which still treasures the county game will be represented. In 2020, it will be denuded by running in direct competition with The Hundred. The most powerful counties will contest it while most of their squad are on loan elsewhere. Results will be devalued and statistics misleading. One giant-sized work experience scheme to give professionals who remain unsold in the auction for The Hundred something to do.
In Restaurant Six, Trent Bridge's acclaimed new fine-dining restaurant and bar, the view of the cricket below became ever-more discouraging. One of the imaginative offerings of Dan Warren, Britain's bartender of the year in 2018, is the Grass Cutter cocktail which evokes the smell of freshly-mown grass. Long before the end, it was the sort of day to put some extra gin in it.
Trent Bridge hosts so many big scores that no first-innings score ever feels safe. But Somerset's 336 was a challenging total, disguised by several bad dismissals. The pitch was central (even if one of ropes was brought in more than necessary) and the ball did not purr onto the bat quite as conveniently as normal. Steven Mullaney termed the total "chaseable," but conceded that Nottinghamshire had been outplayed in every department.
For Somerset to reach 182 for 1 by the 29th over was a considerable achievement. If Tom Banton's edge against Jake Ball, on 1, had not fallen just short of Matthew Carter at second slip, the outcome might have been different. But Banton, Azhar Ali and Peter Trego all made fifties, the admirable Lewis Gregory held the later stages together with 37, and the Overton twins made merry with 46 off 30 late on, their stand once again having the appealing atmosphere of a bit of a singalong at the end of something more serious.
Banton, after his century against Worcestershire, had to deal for the first time with national acclaim - most obviously in the form of Michael Vaughan's Twitter feed. Vaughan told his 1.08m followers that Banton's style reminded him of Kevin Pietersen. As Vaughan remarked, no pressure there then.
It is an apt comparison. Banton might have been influenced by Jos Buttler, who studied at the same school, but there are definite reminders in his long-limbed sweeps and reverse sweeps. Tall and elegant, he can rarely have played more methodically until he burst ahead with 24 off Matthew Carter's second over, striking the offspinner over the ropes three times.
He fell for 59, flicking at a ball from Harry Gurney to be caught at the wicket, the only success for Gurney who had only just returned from a stint with Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL, stood in for Darren Pattinson, who has a sore side, and Stuart Broad, not released by England, and went for 86 in 10 overs.
Alongside him, Azhar progressed furtively. His 71 from 70 balls was shorn of excess, a shrewd assessment of the nature of the pitch, until he swung and missed at Jake Ball. There was a similar run-a-ball contribution from Trego, who played with great responsibility for 73 until he was run out, sold down by the river by Gregory's push into the leg side and change of heart over a single. George Bartlett's second-ball duck, making room against Mullaney, suffered for the vaulting ambition of youth. Ball's well-disguised slower balls helped him to 4 for 62 and Luke Fletcher, although wicketless, was also on the money.
Nottinghamshire perished with Hales, although the unsung Ben Slater played well for 58 until he worked Jamie Overton to short midwicket. When Ben Duckett reverse-swept to deep square, the bowler, Roelof van der Merwe, jumped to attention with the ball in the air as if the Duke of Edinburgh had suddenly walked onto the square and requested an audience.
There were still 11.4 overs remaining when the end came, Fletcher's demise at long-on after a hard-hitting but futile 43 allowing Somerset to celebrate their second complete performance in 48 hours. For Tom Abell, already a much-loved Somerset captain at 25, a Lord's final now lies ahead.

Who does not know the anabolic steroids?
Of course, in popular parlance the "anabolic" is anything in the form of a pill or powder, similar to "doping". It is misleading to say that it is not always and only this one way of interpretation! First of all, let's find out what the Anabolic steroids are; their therapeutic uses; finally we will see what happens in case of use and abuse in the sports field.
Yes, this will be a boring pseudo-medical article with complicated names that will tell you little or nothing, but at least it will serve to clarify many theoretical concepts that yes, can also lead to practice.
What Are Steroids?
Why did I specify "anabolic" steroids? Of the steroid family, derived from sterols biosynthesized through the path of mevalonic acid, there are in fact anabolics such as testosterone, or the corticosteroxygen hormones, including mainly cortisol.
Both types, being from the same family, derive from cholesterol; but we will only be interested in the anabolic ones. Going even further into the details we see the steroid hormones that are subdivided into various categories, purely of a sexual nature, with the androgens of which the progenitor is certainly the best known testosterone, of a masculine nature; estrogens, with estradiol progenitor, of a purely feminine nature.
Obviously we are minimizing, but all to make your life easier!
Androgens and Estrogens
We have divided into these two large groups our steroid hormones: Androgens, of a masculine nature. Estrogens, of a feminine nature. In addition to their names, however, we are also interested in knowing their trades and therefore, penetrating as little as possible into the world of "Let's explore the human body", what do Androgens do?
Products of the adrenal glands and of the sexual ones (from the testicles in the man, from the ovaries in the woman) perform their endogenous function at different levels, mainly acting on muscular and bone tropism, with relative increase and maintenance of muscular strength and bone density; not to mention the sperm function and libido. The fact remains that the major changes occur at puberty, and then maintained as an adult.
Estrogens have decidedly similar functions on the female organism, but all predisposing to future gestation and therefore, I leave. Increase and maintenance of bone density, lipogenesis, growth of secondary sexual characteristics and also regulate the menstrual cycle. It's all very beautiful and interesting is not it? These two groups of hormones essential for sex growth and differentiation work in very wide spectrum! But since we want to deal with testosterone abuse as doping, why include estrogen too? Simple.
Because the hormones Androgens (including testosterone) are basically, precursors of estrogen and, from here, here is the reason for some of the side effects of steroid abuse.
Effects with the Taking of Anabolics
Among the most commonly used steroid anabolic steroids in doping with the aim of improving their sporting performance, we certainly find the plurinominato testosterone.
But who mainly abuses it? It is convenient and customary to combine it with athletes as semi-professional bodybuilders and / or professionals, or anyone else who has to deal with the lifting of large cast-iron discs … but it is not!
The abuse of testosterone has been and still is very present in the endurance world, in sports such as marathon, swimming, cycling … because of its induction to produce higher erythropoietin (EPO), glycoprotein hormone of renal origin. to stimulate the production of red blood cells at the level of the bone marrow, looking for a greater ability to transport oxygen. All this translates into better aerobic performance.
If we add the increase in muscle mass and strength, we get dizzy endurance performance! Let's take a step back to our dear body builders. Testosterone was one of the founders in doping for muscle growth since the early 60s, once injected directly into the vein, today thanks to the most sophisticated drug technologies, also available in comfortable and even more powerful tablets.
It owes its peculiar hypertrophic capacity also (and above all) thanks to the insulin stimulation that this hormone is able to induce. In fact, if the anabolic steroids are insulin-stimulating, the catabolizing Steorides are glucagon-stimulating. Insulin is a very powerful anabolic hormone concatenated in the presence of testosterone, thanks to which we have an increase in protein synthesis and therefore, indirectly, an increase in muscle strength due to the increase in the cross section of muscle fibers, especially type IIa and IIb.
Greater muscle mass and greater strength will induce greater mechanical stress on the skeleton, leading directly to a greater reorganization of the bone tissue and to a direct increase thereof; not to mention the overstimulation of osteoblasts, cells responsible for bone growth, and osteocytes, quiescent bone cells that can resume their osteoblastic activity in the event of trauma.
In addition to the abuse in the world of sports doping, the effects of steroids are also used for medical purposes, especially in replacement therapies in somatic growth retardation in puberty; but even in adulthood there can be very useful applications, as in the treatment of some serious types of anemia; in osteoporosis in the elderly; in the treatment of relevant burns; even to cure AIDS. All these posologies are possible thanks to the anabolic effects described above and should not be underestimated!
Side effects
All that glitters is not gold, and the time has come to understand the side effects of not using anabolic steroids, but their abuse! We assume that these follow a negative feed-back regulation (like most of the hormones) according to which if our body detects an excessive amount of a given hormone circulating in the body, to have a metabolic homeostasis it will be inhibited the secretion; vice versa if there are low quantities the synthesis and secretion will be stimulated.
It is by itself that if I take from the outside a substance that my body already produces in physiologically adequate doses (in non-pathological cases of course) it will automatically inhibit the endogenous synthesis, with a whole series of consequences in the medium to long term not really funny, as in this case infertility due to reduced spermogenesis in male gonads. Then the masculinizing effects of testosterone are obviously recognized on the female gender, such as hirsutism; lowering of the tone of the voice and clitoral hypertrophy.
Being the anabolic in generis, insulino-stimulant as said, the pancreas will be perpetually over-stimulated with increasing percentage of probabilities of contracted type II diabetes. More anabolics in the blood means more sterotes; more steroids means greater free cholesterol in the blood; increased cholesterol in blood flow results with all the consequences resulting from a hypercholesterolemia often associated with a dyslipidemia given the high-calorie eating habits often combined with the intake of anabolics.
What are Anabolic Steroids?
So we will see a typical case affected by more or less severe hypertension; increased probability of arterial thrombus; lower circle of HDL; heart fatigued and therefore pathologically hypertrophic and therefore more exposed to myocardial infarction and other possible related diseases.
If on the one hand a contained and wisely measured amount of testosterone is used in medicine to prevent and treat some types of cancer; a disproportionate quantity of androgens will turn out to be pro-carcinogenic due to their conversion into estrogen by an aromatization reaction (assisted mainly by the aromatase enzyme), which by their nature increase cell proliferation; increased cellular splitting will increase the likelihood of plastic disorganization with formation of dysplasias, severe dysplasias and in the last stage neoplasia.
Last but not so important are the injuries to the musculoskeletal system as voluminous and strong muscle masses physically weigh on the tendons and ligaments. If we then add disproportionate tonnages 6 days out of 7, it will not take long to stretch, contractures, tears and so on and so forth.
The fact remains that apart from a gigantic physical damage, the abuse of anabolic steroids is also a great psychological damage, as it can also lead to over-stimulation of neurotransmitters such as serotonin and ephedrine; not to mention the damage done to their ego as a human individual and to the loved ones that surround the athlete who uses it, generating a vicious circle of lawlessness and precarious psycho-physical health.

When a cavity or general area of tooth decay goes ignored on one of your teeth, it can certainly pose a significant threat to the overall longevity of the tooth. Without timely treatment it can compromise the pulp and root of the tooth. This could lead to total tooth loss, or a tooth that is so severely decayed that Dr. Nancy Urquiola's only viable course of treatment is to completely extract it.
Once your gums have completely healed. she can completely replace the tooth by installing a bridge.
This is one solid piece of dental work that essentially mimics the appearance and function of the original tooth. It is fused on each end to crowns, that will eventually be anchored to abutments formed from the two neighboring teeth.
An abutment is essentially the healthy internal core of the tooth, that is left behind after Dr. Nancy Urquiola removed the enamel. Once this is done she will make a detailed impression of the abutments and the corresponding teeth in your bite.
A temporary crown is then cemented over each abutment to protect it. The impression and any relevant X-rays will be sent to a dental lab where your permanent bridge is made.
Dr. Nancy Urquiola will call you back in for a brief second appointment when your bridge is ready. The temporary crowns will be removed, and she will cement your new bridge onto the two abutments.
If you have a severely decayed tooth, you should call Dr. Nancy Urquiola's office in Ann Arbor, Michigan at 734-973-7450 to explore your treatment and restoration options.

Swiss-based specialty pharma company, Polyphor, has announced that the first patient has been enrolled in the Phase III clinical trial for murepavadin (POL7080) — a pathogen-specific antibiotic being developed for the treatment of nosocomial pneumonia.
Patient recruitment
Murepavadin is Polyphor's lead compound in its new class of antibiotics — the Outer Membrane Protein Targeting Antibiotics (OMPTA). Conversely to other broad-spectrum antibiotics, murepavadin is a pathogen specific antibiotic with a novel mechanism of action against which pathogens may only build resistance slowly.
"The treatment of HABP/VABP caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa is becoming more challenging and new therapeutic options are desperately needed," commented Ignacio Martin-Loeches, research director of the Multidisciplinary Intensive Care Research Organisation (MICRO) at Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland and chairman of the Murepavadin PRISM programme. "The very potent and extensive coverage of murepavadin positions it well where there are risk factors associated with Multi Drug Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa nosocomial pneumonia as well as in stewardship programs where the de-escalation of broad spectrum agents is warranted after availability of susceptibility data."
"We believe murepavadin may lead to a paradigm shift in the treatment of nosocomial pneumonia due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa and become the standard of care in the treatment of patients with confirmed nosocomial pneumonia due to multidrug resistant and extensively drug-resistant strains," added Dr Debra Barker, chief medical and development officer of Polyphor. "Our Phase II study showed promising results and, following discussions with both the FDA and EMA, we have agreed a streamlined development pathway towards completion of Phase III clinical development for murepavadin. The enrolment of the first patient in our European trial is a significant step towards bringing forward this new treatment option."

The Huawei E5172 is a new wireless router for 4G LTE TDD FDD global networks, it features a download speed of up to 150Mbps and provides access to up to 32 WiFi devices as well as desktop computers through an Ethernet cable.
The Huawei E5172 4G Router is the ideal replacement for the Option Globesurfer 3G Router. The E5172 features a single RJ45 Ethernet port, WiFi for up to 32 users and also features an RJ11 telephone port for the connection of a standard analogue telephone to enable GSM calls or can be configured within the web browser interface to enable this POTS phone to make calls over a VoIP service instead. Of course, when using a telephone to make calls over GSM then the 4G SIM card being used with the E5172 4G Router will need to support voice calls.
The E5172As-22 router is the UK version and is supplied with a UK 3 Pin plug and also features an external antenna connector which is the SMA screw type so can be connected to an external 4G antenna if required. The WiFi antennas are inside the router casing and cannot use external WiFi antennas. The E5172 only provides a single SMS antenna port so cannot be used with 4G MiMo antennas and we recommend using an external 4G antenna only in situations where the router is located in a position with very poor or no signal, but an external 4G antenna can be located nearby in a location with a good 4G network signal.
The E5172 CPE Router is an ideal home entertainment and information exchange hub, providing multiple devices simultaneous high-speed Internet access, high-definition video downloads and real-time video viewing and transmission. The Huawei E5172 is also perfect for SOHO and small businesses with its connectivity options to VOIP telephone and fax, printers and other office equipment.
Huawei E5172As-22
4G LTE-FDD 800/900/1800/2100/2600MHz
4G LTE-TDD 2600Mhz
3G HSDPA/HSUPA/UMTS/WCDMA 900/2100Mhz.
2G GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900MHz.
Do you need to buy a 4G Antenna for your E5172?
If your Huawei E5172 4G router is indoors where you have a poor 4G signal but you have a much better 4G signal outdoors then you can locate a 4G antenna outdoors to receive the stronger signal and deliver it along the antenna cable to the router.
if you signal strength is the same outdoors as it is indoors then there is no point in using an outdoor antenna - in most cases it will be unlikely to drastically improve your 4G service.
The E5172 just has a single 4G antenna port so you should use something like a GXS606 3G/4G antenna.
Are you looking to replace your E5172 4G Router?
If you want to upgrade your E5172 4G router then we recommend different routers for different applications.
For home use we would recommend something like the Huawei B525 becuase it will give you fast 4G speeds via the embedded CAT6 4G Modem and then deliver this fast 4G service to your desktop PC's via Gigabit Ethernet ports and to your wireless devices via the high speed 5Ghz WiFi.
For Office Applications then something with added features like VPN we would recommend something the the Proroute H900 4G Router
For M2M Applications for remote monitoring and management then we would recommend something like the compact Proroute H685 4G Router.
You might also want to extend the range of your router WiFi so below are a few useful links.

You don't want neighbors or passers-by stealing your Wi-Fi any more than you want them stealing your water, electricity, or carefully curated collection of Blu-ray movies. In fact it's more serious than that—if someone can hook on to the same network as you, it becomes easier for them to snoop on your browsing and your locally stored files.
So how do you go about locking things down? Thankfully, keeping unwelcome visitors away from your Wi-Fi isn't difficult and doesn't need an IT qualification. Here's what you need to do.
By far the easiest way to boot freeloaders off your wireless network is to change the Wi-Fi password. You need to do this through your router's settings—either dig out the manual or run a quick web search to find the instructions for your particular make and model.
Change the password to something very hard to forget (for you) and impossible to guess (for everyone else) and you've got a clean slate as far as access to your wireless network goes. You do have the inconvenience of then reconnecting all of your devices and computers, but it's a small price to pay for a clean Wi-Fi slate. Pick something that's important to you, like a date or a name, but that no one else would think of, so it's both simple for you to enter and secured against unwanted visitors.
The router's initial password is often printed on a sticker that's attached to the device itself, so changing it will prevent guests like party goers from spying on the security code. If the password's only in your head or somewhere secure then no one else can connect up until you tell them what it is.
Actually, that's not quite true—some routers feature one-touch WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) connectivity, so connecting to Wi-Fi can be done with a push of a button on the router itself. If you're worried about someone doing this to get on the web, you can usually disable it through the router settings.
While we've got your router configuration page open, a few other settings are worth looking at. First, change the default password used to access the router settings page to something else—this stops anyone who might gain access to your network from changing the Wi-Fi password themselves. As you'll have realized when you accessed your router settings for the first time, you need a password to get into the menus, and a separate one to connect to Wi-Fi, so changing them both gives you maximum protection.
It's also worth applying any pending firmware updates, which ensures your router is running the latest and most secure version of its own basic operating system. Again, with so many router makes and models on the market we can't give you instructions for each one, but it should be simple to do—find the instruction booklet or a guide on the web for your device and it will only take a couple of minutes.
Elsewhere in your router's settings you should find a screen listing the devices connected up to your Wi-Fi: Is there anything there you don't recognize? You often have the option to disconnect a device, depending on the type of router you've got, though you might need to do a bit of detective work to identify the devices your router lists.
Finally, you should be able to find a setting that 'hides' your network (the technical term is the SSID or service set identifier) from view, so it won't appear when your neighbors or visitors scan for Wi-Fi on their devices. If you need to connect a new device, you need to enter the SSID manually. It's not a huge improvement in Wi-Fi security, but it's a neat trick that can help you stay under the radar of hackers and Wi-Fi freeloaders.
If you want some extra help spotting who's on your network who maybe shouldn't be, beyond what your router offers, try Fing for Android or iOS, Acrylic Wi-Fi for Windows, or Who Is On My Wi-Fi for macOS. All those apps are free (for non-commercial use), and are easy to navigate around no matter what your level of networking know-how. Various other apps are available to do the same job too.
Installing a VPN on your computer doesn't do anything extra in terms of stopping people from connecting to your Wi-Fi, but it does add an extra layer of encryption between you and the web—so that anyone who does manage to gain access to your network is going to have a much harder time trying to snoop on your activities (which websites you visit, the data you're sending and so on). While a VPN might slightly slow down your connection speed, it keeps you a lot safer—just be sure to choose a reputable, paid-for service.
Finally, if your computer is close enough to the router to wire it up directly, and you've got strong cellular reception on your phone, you could turn off Wi-Fi on your router every once in a while, which can be done through the router settings on all modern boxes. No one's going to be able to hook up to your Wi-Fi network if it's switched off.

A Gingerbread Decorating Party with Amy Blessing
Decorating gingerbread houses with Amy Blessing has become a bit of tradition – and one of my favorite holiday activities with Rip and Tan (last year's natural gingerbread houses seen here). With this in mind, I of course wanted to do the same again this year. And for this get-together we added even more fun, namely gingerbread houses and trees from the lovely ladies of Sweet Laurel and The Kitchy Kitchen. Wanting to make it bit of a decorating party, we invited a bunch of our little friends using the beta version of Minted's new online invitations. The particular invite I chose: an absolutely adorable (and just my style) Gingerbread House Party Online Invitation designed for Minted by Chicago-based Baumbirdy.
To set the scene, we used simple burlap tablecloths upon which Amy placed an assortment of miniature deer and fawn. Also on the table, she placed little trees that she had made by cutting rounds from a small birch log, drilling holes in each, and then placing branches of cedar, douglas fir and pine into the holes. And for seating: Moroccan stools in white and natural from my kids' party favorite, Fire and Creme.
As mentioned, the little ones used almost too-delicious-to-decorate gingerbread houses and trees from Sweet Laurel and The Kitchy Kitchen, and they decorated on top of individual cake rounds to make for an easier cleanup. Amy's inspired ingredients for decorating: this easy-to-use frosting, as well as almonds, yogurt covered raisins, dried cranberries, pumpkin seeds, marshmallows, and finely shredded coconut for snow. Not only did the little ones leave with the festively decorated fruits of their labor, but also these amazing gingerbread house kits donated by my home-delivered crafting favorite, Kiwi Crate. Never one to miss a detail, Amy adorned each wrapped kit with sprigs of greenery from the flower mart, adhered with red washi tape found on Etsy. Needless to say, our party was such fun – and perhaps my favorite gingerbread decorating get-together to date. XXJKE

Holiday Debt Bankruptcy in the New Year
Holiday Debt
All of those Christmas sales and the excitement of Black Friday sure make it tempting to overspend at the holidays. Wherever you look anywhere in the Denver metro area, you'll see ads, holiday decorations and invitations to buy more and buy now! From Flatirons Mall in Broomfield to Cherry Creek, Park Meadows Mall in Lone Tree, The new Outlets in Thornton and of course Amazon, holiday debt can rack up quickly.
You know what I'm talking about. Save 10 percent if you sign up for our credit card. Buy one get one free! Don't forget Dad this Christmas.
On and on it goes and I'll admit, some of those deals do make overspending an easy thing to do. I actually found myself looking twice at a billboard on my drive to a meeting in Centennial.
Don't worry: I looked away because I know I don't really need what that nice store was selling.
The problem with all of these tempting ads is that they work. They do convince us that we simply must overspend at the holidays.
The logical problem that follows holiday overspending is too much holiday debt.
If you find yourself overspending during the holiday rush, you might find yourself in a debt situation you simply can't pay off. If that happens, the next thing you'll need to do is make an appointment with me to discuss your bankruptcy options.
January and February are Busy Bankruptcy Months
Since the day after Thanksgiving typically starts the annual holiday spending spree, it's not such a surprise that bankruptcy filings begin to rise in January.
And for many families, excessive spending actually starts before the holidays. This is because of budget-busting back-to-school expenses. Medical visit co-pays, new clothes for the kids, sports uniforms and equipment, musical instruments for band, school supplies and so forth.
Then, a couple months after school starts, it's time to get ready for the holidays and the spending spree kicks back up.
By the time the January and February bills start piling up, the debt problem is already out of control.
I wrote about this recently, urging my readers and clients to resist the uge to over-buy at the holidays. If you missed that post, please check it out here. It's packed with some great ideas for spending less and enjoying the holidays more. (I am particularly fond of one client's idea for giving the gift of time instead of materials gifts that cost money.)
However, if you do overspend over the holidays and you later find yourself unable to pay your bills, then don't let the problem get worse over time. The sooner you take action, the sooner you can get a fresh start on a better financial future.
Contact Me
When bankruptcies are on the rise, my office is busier. So if you think you're going to want to talk with me about settling your debt problems with a Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy filing, I urge you to schedule an appointment now.
Consultations are free and confidential. Together, we can get you back on good financial footing.
