The Bourne Legacy takes place during the events of The Bourne Ultimatum. It stars Jeremy Renner as Aaron Cross. Edward Norton, Oscar Isaac, and Corey Stoll (antagonist from Ant-Man) also show up. In my review of The Bourne Supremacy, I claimed that if the movie series remained consistent, it couldn't fail. Let's see if The Bourne Legacy is indeed legendary.
Because this movie takes place at the same time as its predecessor, a lot of its plot is directly influenced by the events of the other. Norton's character, Eric Byer, heads a branch of the CIA called Outcome. It's a special ops program designed to basically engineer and program human beings. But Bourne's actions from the previous film risk causing the secrets of the CIA to be exposed. So Byer decides to shut down the program. This includes killing off all the agents.
That's where Aaron Cross comes in. He's a part of the program. But while all this is going on, he is in Alaska going through a rigorous training exercise as punishment for previous actions. He's a trouble maker, but that trait is what saves his life. While the other agents are killed off by being drugged, he's serendipitously too far away. So Byer orders a drone strike to kill him. But of course, Cross is smart and aware and manages to get away.
As stated before, the Jason Bourne trilogy hinges on the ability to deliver suspenseful, action scenes. This includes plenty of car chases, foot chases, hand to hand combat, some gun fights, and a bunch of explosions. If you pay attention, you'd realize that there isn't a whole lot of dialogue in these movies. In the opening scenes, there is zero dialogue. They are movies that show, with some exposition here and there.
The best scenes for me are the ones at the beginning, with Aaron Cross all alone in the mountains of Alaska. He is shown trying to maneuver and use his survival skills to get to his destination. At one point he's scaring off a pack of wolves with fire. And at a later point, he actually wrestles a wolf. It is a display of raw strength and endurance and easily sets up what is to come in the remaining couple of hours.
Edward Norton delivers a good performance as a CIA head. It's no American History X or Fight Club method acting levels, but his witty remarks bring something interesting to the script. It seems like Norton has a sort of trademark when it comes to cranky and snarky remarks. "Consider yourself informed", he says to one of the other CIA guys, after revealing some pretty big news to him. That's what we've come to expect from the actor, and he doesn't disappoint.
Another thing to congratulate this movie on is its ability to refrain from including forced, and obligatory romance. While you expect that Cross and Dr. Marta Shearing (Rachel Weisz) will fall in love, it's only hinted at best. We're shown some hand holding and prolonged gazes. But there are no Casino Royale level in-your-face shower scenes. It's very appropriate too. Cross is pretty much dying throughout the movie. He needs to get to his objective before he runs out of time. So there's little room for anything else at that point.
The Bourne Legacy is a great filler for the fans while they anticipate the next installment starring Matt Damon. I think Jeremy Renner and Edward Norton do a great a job portraying a familiar tone and style, which we all know and love. I really do hope to see them return in some capacity in the upcoming Jason Bourne.
The Bourne Legacy earns a B- (7.0/10) from The Film Lawyers.

Photographing families, kids and babies have long occupied the base of my heart. Even when I'm shooting weddings, I tend to follow my tiny friends who are usually the nephews or nieces of our clients.
In the case of Raffy and Carmela, well, let's just say I had met "Mea" at a time that she could still pass off as a flower girl. She is one of my sister's closest friends and it is such a great thing that they have managed to stay in touch, as they leaf through new chapters in life. Because of that, she too is like family to me.
Congratulations Raffy and Carmela! God Bless You, Always. 🙂

Read this tip to make your life smarter, better, faster and wiser. LifeTips is the place to go when you need to know about Research and other Cancer topics.
Cancer research has evolved over the years. As more and more people are diagnosed, the fight to find the cure for cancer has gotten stronger.
There are clinical trials used to test certain drugs and their effectiveness to fight cancer. A group of individuals become the guinea pigs agreeing to take the new drug in hopes that this might be the one that helps in their crusade against cancer. Each person takes the drugs and documents any symptoms or changes in a diary, reporting back to the doctor. This helps in finding out if this new drug will be effective or not. Usually there are 2 groups in a study. One will take the drug and the other will use other treatments. This will allow to see if taking the drug would be more effective than radiation, or other treatments.
Another aspect to the research is studying genetics. Lab technicians can manipulate the genes to see if certain genes cause the growth of tumors. This determines who is more susceptible to certain kinds of cancer. Mice are usually the test subject for the technicians.
Research also involves studying environmental factors that could be causing cancer. For example, testing certain chemicals used and emitted in the air, determining if they are responsible for developing cancer.
Cancer is a horrible disease and the fight to find a cure continues.

Be Gone, Ugly Varicose Veins!Fall 2005 CSANews Issue 56 | Posted date : May 23, 2007.Back to list
Varicose veins are those unsightly thick and lumpy bluish-green veins that protrude from your legs. It is estimated that 41% of women suffer from abnormal leg veins by the time they are in their 50s. Doctors cannot pinpoint the exact cause of these veins, but certain factors, such as heredity, aging, obesity, hormones, and standing too long, can all play a role in the development of this ailment. There are some easy ways, however, to prevent varicose veins – or to at least relieve the discomfort of those that already exist:
- Exercise regularly to promote blood flow to your legs.
- Control your weight. Excess weight only puts more pressure on the veins in your legs.
- Do not cross your legs while sitting.
Elevate your legs above heart level 3 to 4 times daily, if possible.
- Wear elastic support stockings, and refrain from wearing restrictive clothing around your waist and groin.
- Do not stand or sit for prolonged periods of time. Change your position frequently.
- Reduce the amount of salt in your diet, as salt causes water retention and swelling.
"All I really need is love, but a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt!"
~ Lucy from Peanuts by Charles M. Schulz
It's true – a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt at all. In fact, it's quite good for you. Recent studies show that chocolate can help to prevent heart disease, lower blood pressure, and reduce bad cholesterol. Studies, however, were based on the consumption of dark chocolate – not milk or white chocolate. The difference is that dark chocolate contains significantly higher amounts of cocoa mass, which contains flavonoids. This natural compound, found in cocoa beans, helps to inhibit blood clot formation and allows blood vessels to relax. Flavonoids can also be found in other foods, such as apples, onions, soybeans, blueberries, red wine, and green tea.
If you really enjoy chocolate, you now have more reasons to indulge! However, before you go on a chocolate binge, remember these three points:
- Chocolate cannot replace any type of medication.
- Chocolate contains many calories. Eat a balanced diet and limit the amount of chocolate you eat per day.
- Dark chocolate contains the most flavonoids. Choose a bar that contains at least 70% cocoa mass. Some good picks include Lindt Excellence Noirissime, Cote d'Or Brut, Cocoa Camino Bittersweet, and Godiva Cocoa Demitasse.

Microsoft admits Windows Updates principally created to annoy
Microft claiming Windows 8 'will be, like, sooo much better'Microsoft has admitted that its regular software updates are 'pranks' largely generated by bored or frustrated programmers. The admission, which follows a three-year investigation by a special US Congressional Committee, has merely confirmed what many computer experts have been saying for some time.
Nigel Drake, a software analyst with Drayton Mann, said: 'Honestly, when was the last time you actually downloaded a 'critical' update or patch from Microsoft, and it made any difference to anything you were doing? The screen doesn't change, it doesn't go any faster, it doesn't stop getting attacked by viruses, it doesn't boot up quicker, in fact if anything it gets slower and then your whole screen goes black.'
The updates, which are simultaneously offered to users in 82 countries, are programmed to make their presence known in a variety of annoying ways – as soon as the machine is switched on; before the machine can be switched off or in the case of modern Windows systems as soon as the machine detects the user is engaged in any activity of importance or interest.
'Windows Updates are not compulsory,' said a Microsoft spokesperson, 'and the user has the option of simply switching off the prompts and ignoring them.' However, Paul Strickland, who recently purchased Microsoft's new Windows 7 package, said that when he turned off alerts and ignored updates he noticed that events took a sinister turn. 'At first it was just harmlessly irritating, as usual. I'd get a message saying 'you've turned off alerts' every time I used the machine. Then when I was working it would randomly flash up 'hey, you're missing out on important updates'. A little later the machine began unexpectedly crashing, and I got a message saying 'you were warned'.

text: Hi Everyone, I'm trying to decide if I should buy a new bag or not. I'm debating between these two: 1) the Reissue either a grey or black (something with silver chain) 2) Black Caviar Medium Classic Flap 2.55 with Silver chain See... The thing is, I already have a Black Lambskin Medium Classic Flap 2.55 with Gold Chain and although I love it, it fine its way too delicate and not practical (way too dressy). And because the Lambskin is prone to scratches, I cant stand taking it out of its dustbag. I've heard the Caviar leather is much more tougher and more scratch resisitant than the lambskin. Which one should I get??? I love the Reissue but isn't that bag made out of lambskin too??? Is the Reissue just as delicate as the Lambskin 2.55 that I already have cuz if it is, then I wouldn't want it. Also, do you think the Caviar 2.55 with silver chain be too similar to the bag I already have? Also, what color is the chain for the grey reissue and the black reissue? Does anyone know the price of the Reissue and the Caviar 2.55?

One summer when we were in Italy one of our neighbors had us over for lunch. For dessert, she had this REALLY good apple cake that was so moist and yummy. Over the years, we've tried several different recipes. Some we're good but they were just different. We came across this recipe on Deb's blog Smitten Kitchen. We are so glad that we tried her recipe because this is exactly what we've been looking for! This cake has just enough apple flavor and is SOOO moist. We will keep the recipe for this cake and make it for years and years to come.
Try it yourself!!
6 apples, we used McIntosh apples
1 tablespoon cinnamon
5 tablespoons sugar 2 3/4 cups flour, sifted
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup vegetable oil
2 cups sugar
1/4 cup orange juice
2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
4 eggs
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a tube pan. Peel, core and chop apples into chunks. Toss with cinnamon and sugar and set aside. Stir together flour, baking powder and salt in a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together oil, orange juice, sugar and vanilla. Mix wet ingredients into the dry ones, then add eggs, one at a time. Scrape down the bowl to ensure all ingredients are incorporated. Pour half of batter into prepared pan. Spread half of apples over it. Pour the remaining batter over the apples and arrange the remaining apples on top. Bake for about 1 1/2 hours, or until a tester comes out clean.

A Cockyboy Is… – Cockyboys
Modeling the collection for Boomer is his friend and young apprentice, Calvin Banks (the Haus of Banks!), who couldn't be more excited to show off Boomer's fresh take on a completely gender fluid menswear collection. Consisting of leather, zippers, and even skirts and dresses, this collection goes beyond the brink of cutting edge. In fact, some articles make the art of stripping more convenient, much to Calvin's chagrin. Boomer carefully fits Calvin in his collection before gently stripping him back down, getting a taste of his cock. As Calvin explains, he and Boomer have an electric chemistry despite their vast differences both in physical appearance and in personality. Calvin's spunky energy is the perfect match for Boomer's more subdued, thoughtful vibeówhether it's putting a needle through fabric or getting nailed by his very own apprentice! Calvin's big cock proves quite a challenge for Boomer, but you know he really wants it. Calvin fucks him hard on a chair near the clothing rack face-to-face and from behind, with Boomer actually fucking himself against Calvin's dick before he finally pulls out.

An ovarian cyst is a gathering of fluid inside an ovary that is encompassed by a thin "shell" and can be as little as a pea or turn out to be so huge that a woman looks pregnant. Occurring most frequently during a woman's reproductive years, ovarian cysts can cause pain and bleeding and may be an early form of ovarian cancer. In situations where the cyst is large, causes pain or bleeding, or may be cancerous, physicians may recommend surgical removal.
How is Laparoscopic Cystectomy Performed in India?
A small incision will be made just below the navel. Next, a laparoscope will be inserted. This is a thin tube with a camera on the end. To allow the doctor to better view the organs, carbon dioxide gas will be pumped into the abdomen. The laparoscope will be utilized to find the cyst. When it is discovered, maybe a couple of cuts will be made. Surgical instruments will be inserted to remove the cyst. Tissue may be removed for testing. If cancer is found, both ovaries may need to be removed. After the cyst is evacuated, the instruments will be expelled. The cuts will be shut with stitches or staples. In some cases, the doctor may switch to an open surgery. A larger incision will be made in the abdomen to do the surgery.

Researchers from University of Pittsburgh discovered that the performance of lithium-ionbatteries and super capacitors made fromgraphite andgraphene is affected by their exposure towater. The study published last week in Nature Materials shows that opposite to common beliefs graphite and graphene have hydrophilicproperties.
The idea for the research came as a former undergraduate engineering student, Rebecca McGinley, came across inconsistencies in the abilities of the material to react with water. Studying the phenomenon more closely, the scientists established that air contaminates the thin layer of hydrocarbon.
By using infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, the team was able to determine the hydrophobic nature of the surface. However, once the contaminated layer was removed using heat, the scientists were able to observe that the materials became hydrophilic.

Windows MCE 2005 and Dish Network
May 22, 2005
Here are some quick notes about using Windows MCE 2005 with Dish Network satelite receivers.
In general, MCE can work with Dish as well as any other signal source. Guide data is available for Dish, usually both localized (if you're in a city with satellite locals) and USA (if you're not).
Perusing notes around the 'net, MCE and Dish users have noticed a few issues, although none insurmountable.
Here's the run-down:
First, most of the higher-end Dish receivers use UHF based remotes instead of IR remotes, which makes them difficult to control with MCE's IR Blaster.
The best solution for this is to use the low-end receivers, such as the 101, 301 and 311. These receivers use IR based remotes instead of UHF, and let's face it — if you're using it as a signal source for MCE, you're not going to use any of the receiver's "advanced features" anyway.
Low end receivers can be bought fairly inexpensively on EBay, although watch to be sure you don't get one with a smart card that has a balance due on it.
If you just have to use a higher end receiver, you might try this trick that was posted on TheGreenButton for making a Dish 811 receiver respond to IR.
Another issue that many have run into is that the higher-end Dish receivers have a "screen saver" feature that kicks on after 6 – 8 hours of inactivity. Once this screen saver comes up, you have to press Select on the Dish remote before it will respond to the MCE's IR Blaster again.
Once again, this can be avoided by using the low-end receivers (which don't have this "feature").
Some people have worked around this issue by adding a "dummy" recording event often enough that the screen saver won't kick on.

Washington: US Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Martin Dempsey has warned Iranian leaders of suffer the consequences if they make "a gross misjudgement" of American will on preventing a nuclear-armed Iran.
During an interview with the American Forces Press Service, Dempsey said that while Iran operates on its own internal logic that doesn`t mean Iranian leaders will be reasonable, Xinhua reported.
The top US military officer was responding to the criticism of his previous statement made during a recent hearing at the Congress, where he said that the Iranian regime was "rational".
"Rational meant to me that there is an evident pattern of behaviour that this regime has followed since the Islamic Revolution that, first and foremost, expresses their intention to remain in power and to preserve the regime," he said.
"Based on that, there are some things that we know they will respond to. That`s a rational actor."
Dempsey cited late former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein, who was toppled by the US invasion in 2003, as an example.
Saddam, also "a rational actor", acted with his own logic and made a gross misjudgement of American will, he noted.
The Iranians may find themselves in the same boat, and "they could get it wrong and suffer the consequences", Dempsey said.
He, however, reiterated that the US still wants to give economic sanctions and diplomatic pressures time to work, without taking any options off the table in its attempt to prevent a nuclear-armed Iran.

What do books and book nerds have to do with running? Due to the general stereotypes that are pushed upon word nerds, like myself, nerds and running don't go together. Often people who read, who stay up late to finish that last book chapter, are not always considered master athletes. When I told friends that I started running. A lot of them laughed. A lot of them said "You're not a runner!" or "You hate running?" And the last comment used to be very true. I never understood why people would run. Or how it could be enjoyable. But do you want to know why I never thought that? There were lots of times when I went running, and people made fun of me. Told me I couldn't run properly, I was too big to run, I was a nerd, I was allergic to the outside world, I was never going to make it, and that no matter what distance I ran or how hard I pushed myself it would never be enough. The problem with these comments weren't that they came from strangers (and sometimes they were), but mostly they came from friends and family. The people I had around me. And I became so sensitive to comments about my inability that I just stopped running. Although, I didn't just stop running… I stopped trying.
If I fast forward to years later, I can tell you that I've started running again. Thanks to a beautiful, encouraging, and caring friend, I started running again. Not very far, and not always as often as I would like, but I run. And it feels good. Running clears my head. Running makes me feel awake. And it is the best thing for anger management. Seriously, if you ever feel angry: run. Run until your legs feel like they are going to fall off. It is truly the best feeling.
This weekend, I told someone that I had started running. Not very far, but that I was trying. My maximum distance was 2km without a break and that I did intervals (walking and running) so I could build up my stamina. They laughed at me. Told me that that wasn't very far, why was I even bothering? I wasn't going very far. I should stick to books.
And for a split second I felt like I had gone back in time, and I was feeling as small as I did the first time someone laughed at me for trying. I'm not saying that the person who said this is evil, they probably didn't even know their words would affect me. But their words did, although not in the way they used to…
Nerds run! Book worms play sports! How do I know this? I'll tell you: I am a book worm who runs. I am a nerd who loves to play squash badly. I am a read-a-holic who loves going on long walks just for the sake of walking.
I'm tried of people telling me that because I don't do thing like them, there is something wrong with me. That because I read a lot, or spend a lot of time with books that I can't move, won't move. Well I am here to tell you: nerds run!
Have you ever felt like you were ridiculed because of sports? Ever told you were too nerdy for something? Run, move, play and prove the haters wrong. I would love to see your nerds run photos! Remember to share the reading love.

5 Youtube Families That Take the Ratchet Out of "Reality TV"/
Ratchet TV used to be a guilty pleasure of mine but now, passed Love and Hip Hop I just can't get with the constant drama. Reality TV seems to bring out the worst of the worst in people and it gets exhausting seeing minorities (and even non-minorities) showing their typical a** (thats what my grandma would say) on national TV! C'mon son! We gotta do better!
I freakin' LOVE YouTube! You can literally find anything on that jawn and I LOVE watching family vloggers! It's nice to take a break from ratchet reality and see people living out their real lives, minus the drama, & just spreading the love!
Gabe and Chad of GabeBabeTV
Probably one of the most positive couples on the Tube, Gabrielle and Chad (along with Chad Jr. and O-face) are two of the most inspiring people to watch. Love, life and laughter radiate throughout their daily vlogs and they make it a point to share the positive with their "peeps". If ever you're having a bad day this is the family to watch to cheer you up!
Jamie and Nikki of JamieandNiks
If you've never wanted to visit Australia before, Jamie and Nikki will change that for you! Jamie's video editing and time lapses alone makes the vlogs interesting but now they're sharing their journey as new parents to their baby girl Ava. This couple is just as beautiful on the inside as they are on the outside and that probably contributed to their fast subscriber growth over the passed year or so. Oh, and can't forget to mention the Prince of the vlogs, hey Loius!
Tiffany and TJ of the Daily Davidsons
From the pink room to baby number 3 (& house number two!) these two have their Darlyns and Day1s screaming #GOALS in the comment section of EVERY vlog! don't know about anyone else but I have a hard time finding positive, young, black couples and I think it makes them unique in a sense (a lot of the bigger YouTube vloggers are either interracial or Caucasian). Plus from the TJisms to their three adorable boys, their channel is ADDICTING. If you can't resist cure kids don't do it, but do it! ;)
Patricia and Mike of BritpopLifeVlogs (The Bright Side)
If you get addicted to vlogs like I do, then you'll be sitting with your phone in hand waiting on an update from Patricia and Mike. All the previous vloggers mentioned have a consistent/daily vlog schedule and that's something they don't have. But when they do upload it's always worth the wait! Plus, new baby Grace is such a sweetheart! I've loved watching their family grow and Patricia's blunt honesty about every step of her journey into motherhood. They are always up front with their viewers about what they are and are not comfortable with sharing and I think since becoming parent's they've become a lot more open with their viewers.
Latoya and Adam of Latoya's Life
So if you ever watched one of Latoya's vlogs in passing and then you read this title then you probably did a double take like... huh? LOL. Latoya's life definitely brings the drama but it's been pretty calm over on her channel since "Pumps" has been born and even before then you couldn't help but notice the love from her family radiating all over her channel! Family love always wins!
Who are some of your favorite YouTube families? Do you watch any of the ones mentioned above?

Lake Tahoe is known best in California for its amazing ski slopes in the winter months, but come summer the sparkling water of Lake Tahoe is a refreshing sight and feels amazing in the dry heat of a Northern California summer.
Katie and Chapman got married right at the edge of these waters last summer, with a stunning backdrop and plein air feast, surrounded by loving family and friends. Katie is one of the most sensitive, tender, warm, and compassionate people I've ever known, and Chapman has a heart of gold and looks at Katie like she's his sun and moon. I designed the floral to reflect Katie's softness, while also speaking to wild elements surrounding Lake Tahoe in summer. Wild grasses, strawberries, eucalyptus, seed pods and honeysuckle give way to elegant garden roses, pastel zinnias, and puffs of gomphrena.

Iranian student Reza Parastesh looks so much like Messi that police arrested him because of the commotion he was causing on the streets. pic.twitter.com/i3TnSeZ5cW— Photos of Football (@photosofootball) May 9, 2017
Lionel Messi, one of the greatest soccer stars with a global fan following, now has a doppelganger — and he isn't just an ordinary look-alike. The resemblance between the two is unreal.
Reza Parastesh was in western Iranian city of Hamedan, walking around in his Barca Jersey when a group of Messi fanatics noticed him, causing a sudden panic in the streets of Iran, as several people attempted to take pictures with the 24-year-old.
"Now people really see me as the Iranian Messi and want me to mimic everything he does," Parastesh, who says he is working on some football tricks, told AFP. "When I show up somewhere, people are really shocked.
"I'm really happy that seeing me makes them happy, and this happiness gives me a lot of energy," he continued. "Being the best player in footballing history, he (Messi) definitely has more work than he can handle. I could be his representative when he is too busy."
This is the real Messi saving the day:

However, life is never easy when you are a celebrity look-alike, especially if that celebrity is a really big deal.
Following the chaos, the Iranian police arrested Parastesh and also impounded his car.
Here is a list of some other famous doppelgangers and the issues they faced for having a face similar to that of a celebrity.

For Ed Sheeran's non-biological twin Ty Jones from Sale, Manchester, the resemblance almost cost him his relationships.
"It's made my relationships worse, I'd say, because now I have to weigh up if they like me for me or are they're just interested in me because I'm the next best thing to Ed if they really like him," he said. "When girls ask me for pictures in the streets it's annoyed some of my girlfriends in the past and caused problems."
Taylor Swift
Keitra Jane from Salt Lake City, Utah, bears a striking resemblance to Taylor Swift.
But Jane, who battled an eating disorder and body dysmorphia, often received hate comments from trolls for being Swift's "fatter version."
She addressed the issue on social media to promote kindness.
Internet bullying contributes to disordered eating. People need to understand that nothing on the internet goes unnoticed, and when you publicize your comments or suggestions you aren't just writing on a wall, you're writing to a real person. This is just one of millions of hurtful comments that are given to REAL people every day. This isn't a sympathy post, this is information. You need to know that words have power to do harm or promote positivity. Use your power for good! ?? #NEDA @centerforchange #nedaawareness #loveyourbody #healthybodyhealthylife #loveyourself
Ellinor Hellborg, who is Adele's doppelganger, is a makeup artist from Sweden. While she does everything possible to look like the singing diva, some people think she looks nothing like her.
Hugh Laurie
This Russian plumber who was spotted a little less than a decade ago was clueless why people on the streets stared at him. He looked like Hugh Laurie.

Can We Have Equality and Educational Excellence? A Proposal for Maximum Gain for Minimum Investment.
Gallagher, James J.
Not nearly enough money is going into the identification and development of gifted and talented children. Policy is more concerned with eliminating inequity than developing talent. A strong belief in equal treatment and opportunity has been translated into special education efforts for children in crisis, but not for children with special gifts. The federal role in helping gifted students has been tentative, and in comparison with concern for the handicapped, minimal. Budget and legislative decisions have been made not on the basis of what might be of ultimate benefit to society but on what is the greatest immediate crisis. To develop programs for gifted students, key administrative leadership is needed. Established and competent elementary and secondary training programs can provide the base upon which an intensive inservice training program, especially training, and improved leadership is presented.

The NPPA, after hearing all the stakeholders, did not agree to increase the price of stents. No wonder it would have irked the industry, which would have lobbied intensely with the government. Therefore, irrespective of whatever the government may say to justify the transfer of Bhupendra Singh as a routine affair, many people view the transfer to be linked to the decisions taken by the NPPA. A report for Different Truths.
The transfer of Bhupendra Singh, chairman National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority (NPPA), has evoked a strong reaction from the medical fraternity as well as civil society groups working for affordable healthcare to all. This reaction has come in the wake of several positive steps taken by him to bring down and streamline prices of drugs, which include medicines and medical devices. His order to drastically cut down the price of coronary stents in February 2017 has been seen as a bold initiative on his part.
The NPPA in its order notified on 13th February 2017 had fixed the ceiling price of the bare metal stents at Rs.7,260/- and of drug-eluting stents at Rs.2,960. Till then these stents were being sold to the patients at a price of Rs.70,000 to Rs.1,50,000. This brought big relief to the patients, who had to pay such exorbitant charge for stents.
In this order, the NPPA had referred to the judgment of the Supreme Court, in which the court had observed that "Profiteering, by itself, is evil. Profiteering in the scarce resources of the community, much needed life-sustaining foodstuffs and life-saving drugs is diabolic. It is a menace which has to be fettered and curbed". It is pertinent to mention here that our first Prime Minister Jawahar Lal Nehru while laying the foundation stone of the Indian Drugs and Pharmaceuticals Limited (IDPL), had warned against the manufacture of drugs left to the private sector as their only motive is profit making.
It is another matter that the benefit of the stent price control has not reached all people because several private health providers increased their procedure charges, although the state sector units passed down the benefit to the patients. This matter had been pointed out to the NPPA in a meeting called to have a dialogue with various stakeholders. The industry had been demanding a revision of prices on the plea that new innovations have happened in coronary stents. The civil society and ADEH did not agree with this contention and produced evidence to refute their claim. The NPPA, after hearing all the stakeholders, did not agree to increase the price of stents. No wonder it would have irked the industry, which would have lobbied intensely with the government. Therefore, irrespective of whatever the government may say to justify the transfer of Bhupendra Singh as a routine affair, many people view the transfer to be linked to the decisions taken by the NPPA.
The All India Drug Action Network (AIDAN) and the Alliance of Doctors for Ethical Healthcare (ADEH) have been working hard for a reduction of prices of drugs so as to make them affordable. The ADEH had sent several letters to the Prime Minister, Health Minister and the Minister for Petroleum, Chemicals and Fertilisers. But the response from the ministers has been dismal. In fact, in all this exercise of reducing the price of stents the government has done very little. Their prices have come down after the court order.
The question of price control of drugs cannot be done in a piecemeal approach. It is important to check the price at the level of pharmaceutical marketing practices. The code for the pharmaceutical industry and their marketing practices has to be implemented effectively. The Uniform Code of Pharmaceutical Marketing Practices (UCPMP) highlights that the industry must stop indulging in unethical practices to promote the sale of its products. Clause number 6 and 7 of this code are categorical in forbidding pharma companies from offering any gifts or other benefits like travel facilities because these add up to the cost of drugs. Even the Central Board of Direct Taxes in its Circular No. 5 of 2012, dated 1-8-2012 had categorically said that the expenditure incurred by the companies in offering freebies to the doctors cannot be counted as deductible expenditure for tax.
But both UCPMP, as well as the CBDT order, are not being effectively implemented. The UCPMP is still voluntary even after more than three years of its formation. The very first paragraph of the code mentions that this is a voluntary code for the present and will be reviewed after a period of six months, and if it is found that it is not being implemented effectively then the government may consider making it a statutory code. No more time can be lost now. It is obvious how the pharmaceutical companies are flouting the rules and spending a huge amount in the name of continued medical education programmes. Worse is that this is being done at the expense of pockets of poor patients.

India-England Manchester Test match in 2014 was fixed, reveals ex-India team manager
Dev was caught saying these revelations in a sting operation conducted by a Hindi daily newspaper.
Dev said that skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni chose to bat first in the cloudy conditions because the match was fixed , insisting that his decision came as a surprise to the team management as they had decided to bowl first in a team meeting, reported the DNA India.
Highlights of the match
The 67-year-old, who was the manager of the Indian team in that tour, claimed that he had informed the issue to the then president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) N. Srinivasan, adding that he had appreciated the information but did not feel the need to make it public.
Dev further criticised the BCCI, saying that the India's cricket governing body did not bother about these things as they had not reacted yet on the issue.
India had lost the match by an innings and 54 runs against England, and the match winded up in just three days.

A few weeks ago I was researching other sites which mention Dorothy and I came across a reference in the Electric Scotland site which is run by the now Canadian domiciled Alastair McIntyre, who had previously been the owner of Almac in Grangemouth – the first ISP that we used at James Thin when I first set up their website. The reference was contained in an article by Iain Johnstone about his book Viking Place Names of East Lothian
In the article he is very complimentary about Dorothy's research for King Hereafter and her assertion that Macbeth and Thorfinn were the same man. This was in the context of discussing his outspoken view that many of the accepted derivations for Scottish Lowland place names are erroneous, and based on a faulty view of Anglo-Saxon influence on the area. He believes that many of the names are Norse in origin but have been written out of history for political reasons. I found his ideas fascinating and followed the links back to his own sites which are quite local to me at
http://www.scotsplacenames.com/ and
The former takes a fair bit of reading and you may find his style a touch on the strident side on occasions, but it is clearly the result of his enthusiasm to tell what he believes to be the real story and the content is pretty convincing if you know much about Scots and have pored over maps and wondered at the variations in language that they reveal.
Having digested his site I wrote him an email, expressing interest and thanking him for his King Hereafter comments, and suggesting that he might like to write an article either for the website or for Whispering Gallery, or perhaps give a talk to a Dunnett event.
Sadly I was too late. His wife Margaret wrote to me this week telling me that he had died in August after a sudden illness and saying he would have been delighted to have had such contact with Dunnett readers. Both of them have been great admirers of Dorothy's work from the time of the early Lymonds and Margaret had even read the Dollys in their original editions. I am making arrangements with her to purchase copies of both Iain's books and will read them with interest (and probably quite a few maps!) His death came before he could update his website with the latest book but the first one can be ordered through the Tarmagan site using PayPal, and hopefully the new one will soon follow suit. Once I have a chance to read them I'll post a review here. Now if I can just find time to re-read King Hereafter and see if there are any interesting placenames…

Quick thing. The other night, Josh and I happened upon Anne Korin giving a speech on CSPAN about how the US has to free itself from foreign oil. I have not been this awe inspired in quite a few years. I felt proud to be a woman when I saw her speak. She is incredibly knowledgeable and a valuable asset to this country. Please take some time to watch her speeches....you will definitely learn a lot. The CSPAN speech is broken up on youtube...so you will have to watch it broken up in 7 parts. Here is
part 1
....please give it a chance.

Plantar fasciitis
The plantar fascia is a band of tissue which runs between the heel and the toes. It has several functions, mainly to support the arch and position the ankle correctly during gait. Plantar fasciitis is a common condition where this tissue becomes inflamed and / or thickened, usually at the heel.
What causes plantar fasciitis?
Plantar fasciitis is usually an overuse injury. If the arch is flatter or the ankle rolls in, the plantar fascia has more work to do to support it and it can become injured at the heel
What are the symptoms?
The classic presentation of plantar fasciitis is pain in the heel first thing in the morning, which is very severe for the first few minute, eases off, then returns through the course of the day. It is often worse after rest or if you've been on your feet a long time.
What do I do if I have plantar fasciitis?
The symptoms of plantar fasciitis can be treated in the first instance with rest, icing, calf stretches and using a foot roller to stretch the plantar tissues. If this is not effective you may need an assessment by a podiatrist to investigate the cause of the problem. This will involve a detailed assessment of your symptoms and more importantly, why you have them. There are many variations of heel pain, and the best treatment depends on the exact nature of your pathology.
One of the mainstays of plantar fasciitis treatment programs are orthotics. These are devices which go in your shoes to compensate for whatever structural or functional situation caused your pain, and reduce the stress in the damaged tissue. They are a little like eyeglasses in that one can purchase generic devices (like reading glasses) for simple conditions over the counter, or on the internet. However if a more specific and tailored prescription is required they will need to be custom made for your requirements.

Over the next couple of days I am going to be posting some pictures, each with a quick description, from the Tucson Open last weekend. In Tucson, GM Yermolinsky and I helped a small team of 6 players during the tournament. Game Review as well as Game Preparation for the upcoming rounds is where Alex and I focused with the students.
Most of the participants of "Team Yermo" finished with great tournaments. Their results were as follows:
- John Gurczak had a great tournament in the Open Section (gaining over 30 rating points) and finished with 4 out of 5.
- Fitch (Tiger) Rensch, also playing the Open Section, finished with 2.5 points out of 5. Only Tiger's 5th tournament in 5 years!
- Bill Pace had a rough go, but enjoyed the analysis and "prep" as he was trying out new openings. Finished with half a point.
- Jonathan Booher finished with 3.5 out of 5 in the Reserve, and gained over 40 rating points! Great tournament for him…
- Soren Alethia-Zomlefer also faired well in the Reserve Section, finishing with 3 points out of 5, despite a tough start.
- Finally, Thayer-Alethia-Zomlefer also finished with 3 points in the Booster Section and gained a coupe points along the way.
Despite the small group of participants, I believe the "event" was a real success. For those involved, receiving several hours of analysis and preparation, certainly made the trip worth it. Yermo and I were able to give valuable insight and advice to each student immediately following their games. I believe this was very effective, because their ideas and plans were "still fresh in their heads". We hope those involved enjoyed the experience. Comments, critiques, and ideas are always appreciated… For a full list of the Tucson Open Results, click here.

Some worry that it is somehow undiplomatic or impolite to speak the language of right and wrong. I disagree. Different circumstances require different methods, but not different moralities. Moral truth is the same in every culture, in every time, and in every place. Targeting innocent civilians for murder is always and everywhere wrong. Brutality against women is always and everywhere wrong. There can be no neutrality between justice and cruelty, between the innocent and the guilty. We are in a conflict between good and evil, and America will call evil by its name. By confronting evil and lawless regimes, we do not create a problem, we reveal a problem. And we will lead the world in opposing it."Words like these give me hope that, despite the ducking and weaving of the last few months, the President knows he must and intends to wage war against terrorist states, beginning with Iraq. It's not just that he's saying the rights words and making the right arguments. It's that by speaking so clearly, he continues to box himself in politically, so that if he does not instigate war against Iraq, and if he does not effect the revolution in international law that such a preemptive war entails, he will have committed political suicide. I can't believe this adept and pragmatic politician would unwittingly drive himself into such a corner. Which is kind of funny: I usually don't trust George W. Bush because he's a pragmatist; now I hope he'll do the right thing precisely because he is.

TIPPECANOE COUNTY, Ind. (WLFI) — A Tippecanoe County woman said a Lafayette attorney assaulted her in the courtroom.
Court records reflect most of what Lafayette attorney Ed Chosnek said during the incident.
It happened during a contested will trial.
The case involved three siblings fighting over their father's $400,000 estate.
Chosnek represented two of the siblings, John L. Thompson Jr. and Marcee Brody. They claim their sister, Sandra Riggs, manipulated their father into signing most of his money over to her.
During the trial last May, Riggs said Chosnek's witness was lying on the witness stand.
"My wife objected and had evidence to establish that she was committing perjury and Ed Chosnek then threatened to assault her," said Sandra's husband, Steven Riggs.
The official court transcript shows Chosnek said something "inaudible" and then said "just smack you in the head."
When asked what Chosnek was doing with his body when he said that, Sandra explained, "He had brought his backhand at the time that he had said this to me to my head to hit me, to follow through with his threat to me and I had to step backwards to avoid the hit, so, instantly I called him out, did you just threaten to smack me in the head? And his response is he'd love to."
Furthermore, when Sandra Riggs tried to tell the jury why her father said he gave her the money, Judge Thomas Busch wouldn't allow it and even told the jury to conclude that the testimony she would have given would have been unfavorable to her case.
The jury ended up ruling against Riggs in the trial but the Indiana Court of Appeals later reversed and remanded the decision saying Judge Busch abused his discretion.
Her husband Steven said, "I have no explanation for that, other than that he is helping to favor one side over the other. Because there is no legal justification for his ruling."
The Indiana Supreme Court upheld the Indiana Court of Appeals decision and now it's being sent back for re-trial. On Wednesday, Judge Busch had a chance to dismiss the case again because Chosnek failed to pay a mandatory filing fee when the case started in 2014. But he denied Riggs' motion to dismiss and now it is set for March of next year under the next Circuit Court Judge, Sean Persin.
As we told you in June, Busch announced he would resign at the end of 2017 with three years left on his term.
"My kids live in different parts of the world and I want to see them more and so we are going to be doing a lot of traveling," said Busch in June.
The Indiana Court of Appeals released its decision a little more than a week after Busch announced his retirement.
As for Chosnek, Riggs made an official complaint to the Indiana Supreme Court Disciplinary Commission. It replied to the complaint in part, "Corrective action has been taken against Mr. Chosnek."
We asked for specifics about the corrective action but weren't given any. Instead, the court would only refer us to the online chart showing that seven caution and warning letters were sent to attorneys this year.
"Would a warning letter be enough?" asked News 18's Kayla Sullivan to Rigg's husband Steven.
"Absolutely not." He said. "I was shocked that the Indiana Disciplinary Commission themselves did not ask to hear the audio tape."
But News 18 did and it wasn't easy.
Judge Busch denied our request twice. So, we took the matter to the Indiana Public Access Counselor. After a month-long investigation, he released an opinion in our favor on Wednesday.
Thursday morning, News 18's Kayla Sullivan listened to the tape to hear if Chosnek's "inaudible" portion was in fact, inaudible and it was. Sullivan said it was clear he said something before saying "just smack you in the head," but it was difficult to make out the words.
Riggs said it doesn't matter what Chosnek said before the smack you in the head comment.
"We know from the transcript, and I know from my wife's reaction after she stepped out of court sobbing and trembling that she was assaulted," said Riggs. "And Ed Chosnek thinks apparently that he's above the law does not have to be accountable for assaulting a citizen, a member of the public during a court proceeding."
News 18 reached out to Ed Chosnek, Judge Busch and several attorneys involved in this case for comment but they all have declined.
Riggs says she wants an apology from Chosnek and a fair trial next year.
But mostly she wanted this case brought to light.
