Why Flexibility Doesn't Matter in Yoga
"I'm not flexible enough to do yoga"
I love sharing and trying new things. So, when I discovered yoga, I wanted to share it with my friends. Yet, when I ask them to join me for yoga, I always get the same response I am not flexible!
Saying you have to be flexible to do yoga is like saying you have to be in shape to go to the gym. Yoga is so much more than flexibility. By definition yoga a 'discipline, a part of which, including breath control, simple meditation, and the adoption of specific bodily postures, is widely practiced for health and relaxation'.
What you see on social media, is someone doing a posture that requires insane flexibility, like putting your feet behind your head. But, what you don't see are the hours of practice and the person journey's that got their leg over their head.
Bikram Yoga & Flexibility
We all have different levels of flexibility. Why? Because not one person is the same, our bodies are different. Yoga, appreciate differences and each posture have various modifications. In Bikram yoga, you will have different steps to the posture; you have to master the first step before you can move on. You also have a hot room and heat helps with flexibility.
One of my favourite postures from Bikram practice is the Standing Bow Pulling Pose. Before I saw my foot coming out of the back of my head, I had to learn to lock my standing leg, balance, level my hips squarely forward and let us not forget about breathing. It's about building a strong foundation. I am still learning how straight my kicking leg and I am still falling out of the posture and that's ok. I don't know how long till I will do full expression of the posture. But that doesn't matter, time here is irrelevant, there is no deadline, no expectations; just you and your practice.
Vinyasa Yoga & Flexibility
Vinyasa offers you modifications and blocks to support you in the postures. Your teacher will be there to help you find modifications to postures to accommodate your body. At any time you can go to child's pose. Being in the room and focusing on your breath is part of the practice – simple meditation to look after your wellbeing.
If practicing yoga crossed your mind and flexibility was the obstacle. Hopefully, now you are ready move pass the flexibility myth and you can enjoy the full experience of yoga practice.

High Dining in the Desert
The full moon always brings splendor to the sky, and a few lucky people got to witness this celestial glory rise while enjoying a marvelous meal in an elevated state themselves.
California-based cannabis company High Dining has been pairing herbal delights with gastronomic delectations since 2016—sushi and doobie rolling workshops, hello—and September's Moonlit Moveable Feast connected plates to the divine. Pretty much the headiest supper club that you can possibly imagine.
High Dining Experience Creator Barbie Sommars curated "an exotic world of enchantment, education and epicurean delight" for 50 guests on the eve of the autumnal equinox in the high desert of Joshua Tree, CA. Inspired by her recent trip to Marrakesh, Chef Sabrina Eustis prepared a four-course menu of Moroccan-inspired courses featuring cannabis-infused haute cuisine, including CBD-steeped mocktails and a Marrira Lentil and Chickpea Soup with Cumin-Infused Coconut Oil (mmmmm....)
Smoke Cartel was honored to be a sponsor the Moonlit Moveable Feast, contributing a hand blown glass pipe to each table setting. After all, having your own piece at an dining event like this is basically as important as the silverware.
Terpene-rich dabs, a hookah station and pre-rolls from Aloha Humboldt also enhanced the meal as diners watched the full moon ascend as the sun set, entertained by tarot readings and ethereal sounds from 3rd Ear Experience.
Smoke Cartel hopes all the diners and vendors enjoyed the night, and kudos to Barbie and the rest of the High Dining crew on another fabulous dining adventure! We were only able to be there in spirit this time, but we hope to commune under the moon with our desert sisters and brothers one day soon...
Check out the rest of the Moonlit Moveable Feast photos here.

This project with Rolls-Royce and the innovative research conducted by PRISM2 plays a key part in ensuring that the technology employed by Rolls-Royce helps the UK stay at the forefront of advanced manufacturing, particularly in the aerospace sector.
Professor Jeffery Brooks, Director of PRISM2 and Hanson Professor of Industrial Metallurgy at the University of Birmingham said, "The models we develop for manufacturing simulation are computationally very demanding and require huge amounts of resource and the BlueBEAR HPC facility is essential in supporting my team".
The BlueBEAR facility uses Lenovo HPC direct-to-node water cooled systems with Mellanox SwitchIB-2 based EDR InfiniBand. Storage is provided using IBM Spectrum Scale and IBM Spectrum Protect and jobs are scheduled using the SLURM scheduling system. The system is designed and integrated by the University's Advanced Research Computing team and supplied by OCF, the University's framework supplier for research computing systems.
OCF is a UK based high-performance compute, storage and data analytics integrator. Business Development Manager, Georgina Ellis, commented, "We've (OCF) worked with University of Birmingham over a number of years. The framework agreement enables the Advanced Research Computing team access to a wide variety of vendors, and the team know what they want to deliver and engage with a wide variety of partners to deliver value for the researchers at Birmingham".

What's the Difference Between Inbound and Outbound Marketing?
Click to Listen
Two Ways to Market Your Business
By now, you may have heard of the term "inbound marketing" — and if there's an inbound form of marketing, what's "outbound marketing"? And what's the difference between the two?
The two forms of marketing represent different methods of connecting with customers. Inbound marketing is all about pulling people into your hub through various channels. This can be achieved in a variety of methods, and a robust inbound marketing campaign often uses almost all of these: content that gets search engine traction, clickthrough engagement on social media, clickthrough engagement on pay-per-click ads, etc. The goal is to use these various methods to get viewers to a targeted landing site or page.
Outbound marketing is the opposite of that. Rather than pulling people in, you send your message/brand out (outbound) in front of as many targeted groups as possible. This can be in the form of pay-per-click ads, paid ad content online and in traditional broadcasts, print ads, etc. In a traditional marketing flow, ads are broadcast and a certain percentage of viewers act on them to make purchases.
In terms of cost, inbound marketing is an ongoing effort. New content must always be created, someone must always be monitoring social media accounts, and channels should constantly be updated to ensure there is value for customers. Outbound marketing can be performed in measured campaigns. For example, a deal is negotiated for broadcast commercial placement or a budget is set for a pay-per-click campaign. In those cases, outbound strategies can be as long or short as a budget/need dictates.
Which provides the most value to business owners? Both inbound and outbound marketing have their pros and cons. Inbound is a long-term strategy built around relationship management with the goal of customer loyalty. Outbound is focused on getting a message out. In most cases, a business will want to use some combination of both, and the balance depends on target audience, budget, competition, and industry. In many cases, they can work together. For example, outbound can be extremely effective for a short-term promotion (new product launch, etc.), something where a mass announcement gets information across quickly. Once that person converts, a customer relationship strategy should be in place to get contact information and engage them on all possible channels so that they find their way back (inbound).
If you're having trouble deciding which strategy you need right now, think of it this way: inbound marketing is about building a large customer base while outbound marketing is about getting immediate sales. Both are necessary parts of business, and depending on your current situation, one may be better than the other.

Bill's blog: The Celebration of Grace
Every family celebrates. Be it birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, or some other significant event, we celebrate. To celebrate is to recognize something special, something unique. To celebrate is to acknowledge the occasion with some social gathering or enjoyable event.
"But the father said to his servants, bring quickly the best robe, and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet. And bring the fatted calf and kill it and let us eat and celebrate. For this my son was dead, and is alive again, he was lost, and is found. And they began to celebrate" (Luke 15:22-24).

School of International Development, University of East Anglia (DEV)The increasing use of cash transfers and market-based strategies in response to food insecurity requires high market analysis skills to optimise the effectiveness and efficiency of food assistance interventions. Interventions to contrast conditions of food insecurity make increasingly use of cash distributions and, more in general, of market-based strategies, in addition to the traditional strategies based on commodity handout. This strategic shift is based on the consideration that markets are key elements of peoples' livelihoods in all contexts, both in normal conditions and in the immediate aftermath of a disaster, as long as conditions allow markets to function properly. Therefore, it has become increasingly important to incorporate market analysis in all phases of the project cycle, and in particular with reference to needs assessment, project design, M&E. This study proposes and applies a few tools to assess the feasibility of cash transfers and support the selection of intervention strategy in response to conditions of food insecurity.

Faculty of Society and Economics, Rhine-Waal University of Applied SciencesThe Economics and Finance Master's programme is a consecutive course of study that expands upon your undergraduate foundation of economics and business studies. It is designed to consolidate existing expertise while enhancing it with advanced specialist qualifications in the fields of finance and economics.
In particular, the programme will impart to you cutting-edge methods, applications, and models found in economics, corporate finance, and the analysis of international financial markets. Through experiments in game theory, behavioural economics analysis, and empirical market analysis, you will develop and learn to employ a sophisticated research methodology. The multidisciplinary curriculum investigates not only law and economic issues, but also incorporates important macroeconomic and social issues as well. Among other things, you will examine how conflicting viewpoints and actions can negatively affect competition and the financial and goods markets, illustrating both the importance and usefulness of value orientated, ethical behaviour in business. This multifaceted approach will enable you to effectively examine and evaluate economic issues in financial and competitive markets in both national and international contexts.
The degree programme is taught in English. As a result, you will gain not only near-native proficiency in the language, but also fluency in the advanced terminology and nomenclature used in the highest economic and fiscal circles at the international level. This adds a further dimension to your profile that helps you stand out as an internationally-oriented expert in economics and finance.

Institute of Development Policy and Management, University of Antwerp (IOB)The objective of the Master programme is to provide students with a solid understanding of the globalisation phenomenon in all of its dimensions (worldwide markets for goods and services, capital and labour/migration, the planetary challenge of the environment and sustainable development). It also offers insights and tools with which to analyse and affect the impact of globalisation on local development and poverty alleviation in low- and middle-income countries. As such due consideration is given to the complexity of local-global interactions in the multifaceted arenas of globalisation.
The Master's programme comprises 12 months, starting and ending mid-September, and consists of four modules.
The first module (Theories of Development Research methods I and II) provides an overview of theories of development and gives students up-to-date knowledge of research methods and techniques, both general and programme-specific.
In modules II (Globalisation and Development) and III (Local Institutions and Poverty Reduction) research-driven interactive education is offered.
In module IV (Dissertation), each student conducts an individual development research project under the guidance of a supervisor. The topics covered relate to the thematic focus of modules II and III. A limited number of students receive IOB travel grants in order to conduct fieldwork or participate in an internship for their research project. The dissertation is the subject of a public presentation and defence. This Master offers only one track: Global opportunities for local development. This track focuses on the analysis of the interaction between external and local actors at the interface of global and local development processes.

In California, a "wrongful death claim" arises when one person dies as the result of the wrongful act or negligence of another person or entity. Unlike a homicide case that is brought by the state and in which the convicted offender is penalized with prison, probation or other methods, a wrongful death claim is a civil lawsuit brought by the survivors of the deceased person or decedent. The fault of the responsible party is expressed solely in terms of money damages, which the court orders the defendant to pay to the decedent's survivors (assuming the lawsuit is successful).
A family in California may bring a civil wrongful death claim to court even if a criminal case is already going forward.
One way to think of wrongful death is as a special type of personal injury lawsuit. If the injured person had lived, he or she could bring a claim for damages against the person who caused their injury. Because the injured person died, however, the survivors may bring a wrongful death claim on the decedent's behalf.
Who May File a Wrongful Death Claim in California?
Only certain people are allowed to file a wrongful death lawsuit in California. The relevant statute specifically allows the following parties to bring a wrongful death claim:
- The decedent's surviving spouse and children, including a putative spouse and children
- The decedent's domestic partner
- The decedent's parents, surviving siblings, or children of deceased siblings
- Grandparents or lineal descendants
- Dependents or those who were financially dependent on the decedent at the time of his or her death ( children, stepchildren, parents, siblings, grandparents)
Determining the proper heirs in a wrongful death case can be a complicated matter but it is essential that all the proper heirs be named.
When there are multiple surviving family members involved in a single wrongful death case, one of the first issues in a successful resolution is the division of damages. In a successful California wrongful death case, the jury will award, or an insurer will agree to pay, a single lump sum to a group of plaintiffs, and the group must decide how to split the award. If the claimants cannot agree, they may go to court again to reach a judgment on how to divide any award. You can read the full text of the California wrongful death statute at California Code of Civil Procedure section 337.60, et seq.
What Damages are Available in a Wrongful Death Claim?
A number of different varieties of personal injury damages are available in a wrongful death claim in California. The specific amounts involved will depend on the facts of an individual case. Damages are typically divided according to whether it compensates the estate for losses associated with the death, or the surviving family members for the personal losses they suffered as a result of the death. Losses that are typically attributed to the estate include:
- Funeral and burial expenses
- Medical and hospital bills for the deceased person's final illness or injury
- Lost income, including potential income the decedent would reasonably have been expected to earn in the future had he or she lived
Losses that are typically attributed to the surviving family members include:
- The value of household services
- Loss of anticipated financial support
- Loss of love, community, attention, affection, moral support, and guidance
In California, you cannot collect for pain and suffering in a wrongful death case except in elder abuse cases where a statute specifically allows such damages for the pain and suffering of the decedent before death.
How Long Does a Family Have to File a Wrongful Death Claim?
Like personal injury claims, wrongful death claims in California must be filed within a specific time period (which is known as a statute of limitations in legalese). California law requires a wrongful death claim to be filed within two years of the date of the decedent's death. If the case is not filed in the state's civil court system within two years, the family will almost certainly lose the right to file it at all.

People living in this modern era must find ways to look different. This is where the choice of retro sofa sets come in with the varying design and shapes which could make the appearance of your room distinguishable. Another factor is that these sofa sets are very classy and elegant. This could also give the perception that these sofas are very expensive. People always vary aesthetic qualities more that the price factor and normally prefer buying something which looks good. This is because they want to attract considerable amount of praise when guests come to visit the house or when people from another part of the country or town visits the house.

Betrixaban (Bevyxxa)
Venous thromboembolism (VTE), including deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), remains a preventable cause of morbidity and mortality in hospitalized patients. Approximately 25% of all VTE events occur in hospitalized patients on medical inpatient service. Although VTE is more common in surgical patients, patients hospitalized for an acute medical illness have an eightfold increased risk of VTE during their course of stay.1,2
Several risk factors contribute to the development of VTE in acutely ill hospitalized patients, including previous VTE, active cancer, reduced mobility, recent trauma or surgery, age of 70 years or older, organ failure, infarction, obesity, acute infection, or hormonal therapy.1,3 The Padua Prediction Score risk assessment categorizes acutely ill hospitalized patients into two categories—low risk or high risk—based on the risk factors associated with the development of VTE. In one study, 11% of patients in the high-risk category developed a VTE without prophylaxis compared with 0.3% in the low-risk group. In addition, a significant portion of these VTE events were fatal.4
There are two types of prevention therapies: mechanical methods and pharmacological agents. Mechanical methods for the prevention of VTE include graduated compression stockings, intermittent pneumatic compression devices, and venous foot pumps. These devices improve venous status, a risk factor associated with VTE. The advantage of medical devices over pharmacological agents is low probability of fatal or nonfatal bleeding. Currently, medical devices are reserved for high-risk patients who are either bleeding or at high risk for major bleeding.3 Pharmacological agents are preferred for high-risk patients in the prevention of VTE during hospitalization.
The American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP) recommends anticoagulant thromboprophylaxis with low-molecular-weight heparin (once daily), low-dose subcutaneous unfractionated heparin (two or three times daily), or fondaparinux (once daily) in acutely ill hospitalized patients with increased risk of VTE (high-risk patients). Using the literature and evidence available in 2012, the guidelines recommend selection of a pharmacotherapy agent based on patient preference, compliance, cost, and ease of administration.3,5
The outcome of VTE prophylaxis is improved venous flow and reduction in the patient's hypercoagulable state. Short-term thromboprophylaxis (five to 14 days) in high-risk medical patients has reduced the rate of VTE, including fatal PE, with a small increase in risk of bleeding.3 Recent trials reported that the risk of VTE in medical patients is as high as 5% to 6% at 30 days after discharge, and extended prophylaxis with pharmaco therapy for longer than 14 days up to approximately 35 days may be warranted.6,7 Extended VTE prophylaxis is currently recommended in surgical patients; however, it remains controversial in medically ill patients due to the risk of bleeding.3 The "Extended Prophylaxis for Venous Thromboembolism in Acutely Ill Medical Patients With Prolonged Immobilization" (EXCLAIM) study demonstrated a reduction of overall VTE with extended-duration, once-daily enoxaparin compared with placebo, but failed to show benefit in the reduction of fatal PE or overall mortality. In addition, the extended-duration enoxaparin group had a significantly higher rate of bleeding events compared with the placebo group.6
Since the publication of the 2012 ACCP guidelines3 for short-term and extended thromboprophylaxis for acutely ill patients with high risk of development of VTE, two studies have been published regarding the use of direct oral anti coagulants (DOACs) in this patient population. The ADOPT trial reported that extended-duration apixaban (Eliquis, Bristol-Myers Squibb) (2.5 mg twice daily for 30 days) was not superior to short-term enoxaparin in prevention of VTE. In addition, the apixaban group had a higher rate of bleeding.8 In the MAGELLAN trial, extended-duration rivaroxaban (Xarelto, Janssen) (10 mg once daily for 35 days) demonstrated lower rates of VTE, but had a significantly higher rate of bleeding.7 Overall, systematic reviews show a positive decrease in the incidence of VTE with extended-duration rivaroxaban, apixaban, and enoxaparin; however, each was associated with a higher rate of fatal and nonfatal bleeding, yielding no net benefit.9,10
Betrixaban (Bevyxxa, Portola Pharmaceuticals) is an extremely potent factor Xa inhibitor.11 In October 2016, Portola submitted a new drug application for betrixaban for extended-duration prophylaxis of VTE in hospitalized, acute medically ill patients with risk factors associated with VTE. It was granted priority approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in June 2017.12,13 Betrixaban is the only FDA-approved DOAC for extended-duration prophylaxis for VTE in acute medically ill patients.
Betrixaban inhibits free and prothrombinase bound factor Xa in a concentration-dependent manner.11,14 Based on existing data, betrixaban at concentrations ranging from 5 ng/mL to 25 ng/mL produces similar inhibition of thrombin generation as fondaparinux in humans; however, betrixaban was more potent at inhibiting thrombin–antithrombin complex and F1+2 generation compared with fondaparinux. At clinically effective antithrombotic concentrations, betrixaban did not prolong prothrombin time in ex vivo coagulation studies.15–17
Through its development and phase 1 trials, an 80-mg dose of betrixaban reached peak concentration (Cmax) within three to four hours. The bioavailability of oral betrixaban is 34%. Studies have shown that high-fat foods reduce the area under the curve and Cmax of betrixaban by approximately 50%, whereas low-fat foods caused an average reduction of 65%. The manufacturer recommends administration of betrixaban with food.13
Betrixaban is largely excreted unchanged through biliary secretion (82% to 89%) via P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux pumps. For this reason, agents affecting P-gp (e.g., amiodarone, verapamil) should be used with caution in patients taking betrixaban. A small amount of inactive metabolites is excreted in the urine (11%); therefore, a small portion of betrixaban is metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. No CYP interactions have been reported.15,18 Because clearance of betrixaban is mainly via the gut through the hepatobiliary route, renal elimination of the compound is minimal (only 5% to 7% of orally administrated medication).13,16
After administration, the terminal half-life of betrixaban is 37 hours, and the pharmacodynamic half-life is approximately 19–27 hours. This is the longest half-life of any DOAC to date, and its long half-life gives it a low peak-to-trough concentration.17 While these qualities are favorable for stable and predictive once-daily dosing, the long half-life and low peak-to-trough ratio minimizes the anticoagulant variability.
Phase 2 Trials
Betrixaban did not demonstrate superiority to enoxaparin in the prevention of major and nonmajor bleeding in total knee replacement patients in the phase 2 EXPERT trial; however, it demonstrated effective antithrombotic activity at 15-mg and 40-mg doses and was well tolerated, which yielded a need for further studies.19 In the phase 2 EXPLORE-Xa trial in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, betrixaban doses of 40 mg, 60 mg, and 80 mg demonstrated the lowest occurrence of any bleeding events compared with warfarin.14 See
Phase 3 APEX Trial13,20
The phase 3 APEX trial was a multinational, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy clinical control study (N = 7,513) designed to test the efficacy of betrixaban in treating patients with acute medical illnesses and a high risk of VTE. The initial study inclusion criteria were: age of 40 years or older, hospitalized for less than 96 hours with an acute medical illness, and risk factors for VTE. The inclusion criteria were updated in 2014 to restrict enrollment to patients with an elevated D-dimer or an age of at least 75 years. The primary endpoint for all cohorts was a composite of asymptomatic DVT between day 32 and day 47, symptomatic proximal or distal DVT, symptomatic nonfatal PE, or death from VTE between day 1 and day 42. The main safety outcome was the occurrence of major bleeding at any point until one week after the discontinuation of all study medications. Patients were randomized to the betrixaban arm (betrixaban 160 mg orally on day 1, then 80 mg once daily for 35–42 days and enoxaparin subcutaneous [SC] placebo once daily for six to 14 days) or to the enoxaparin arm (enoxaparin 40 mg SC once daily for six to 14 days and betrixaban placebo orally once daily for 35–42 days) (
The results and statistical analysis were split into three cohorts: 1) patients with elevated D-dimer levels, 2) patients with elevated D-dimer levels and age 75 years or older, and 3) all patients who received one dose of the medication. The results of the trial were examined in a tiered approach. If cohort 1 showed statistically significant data, then the results of cohort 2 would be examined; however, if one of the cohorts failed to show statistical significance, the following cohorts would only be considered exploratory. This design, guided by the FDA, was intended to identify specific benefit groups in a study population. Cohort 1 failed to show statistical significance that extended prophylaxis with betrixaban reduced the composite VTE endpoint compared with enoxaparin (6.9% versus 8.5%; P = 0.054). Cohort 2 showed a statistical reduction in composite VTEs with betrixaban compared with enoxaparin (5.6% versus 7.1%; P = 0.03) and in the overall population. No difference was noted between betrixaban and enoxaparin in major bleeding (0.7% versus 0.6%, respectively). Overall, the net clinical benefit (a composite of the efficacy VTE endpoint or principal safety outcome) occurred in 5.8% of the betrixaban group and 7.3% of the enoxaparin group (P = 0.01).
Overall, the APEX trial showed no superiority of betrixaban compared with enoxaparin in the reduction of the composite VTE in extended-duration VTE prophylaxis in a high-risk population with elevated D-dimers. However, betrixaban showed a reduction in VTE events compared with enoxaparin in some patients with no increase in bleeding.
Boxed Warning
The prescribing information for betrixaban contains a boxed warning that epidural or spinal hematomas may occur in patients treated with betrixaban who are receiving neuraxial anesthesia or undergoing spinal puncture. The risk of these events may be increased by the use of in-dwelling epidural catheters or the concomitant use of medical products affecting hemostasis. These hematomas may result in long-term or permanent paralysis. The manufacturer advises health care practitioners to consider these risks when scheduling patients for spinal procedures.13
Betrixaban is contraindicated in patients with active pathological bleeding or severe hypersensitivity reaction to betrixaban.13
Risk of Bleeding
Betrixaban increases the risk of bleeding and can cause serious and potentially fatal bleeding.13
Concomitant use of drugs affecting hemostasis increases the risk of bleeding. These drugs include aspirin and other antiplatelet agents, other anticoagulants, heparin, thrombolytic agents, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.13
Prescribers should advise patients of the signs and symptoms of blood loss; patients should report them immediately and seek emergency care. Promptly evaluate any signs or symptoms of blood loss and consider the need for blood replacement. Discontinue betrixaban in patients with active pathological bleeding.13
Although agents are in development, 21,22 there is no established way to reverse the anticoagulant effect of betrixaban, which can be expected to persist for at least 72 hours after the last dose. It is unknown whether hemodialysis removes betrixaban, and protamine sulfate, vitamin K, and tranexamic acid are not expected to reverse its anticoagulant activity.13
Drug Interactions
Because betrixaban is a P-gp substrate, strong P-gp inhibitors (i.e., ketoconazole, amiodarone, diltiazem) increase betrixaban concentrations15 and may increase the risk of bleeding. The dose of betrixaban in patients receiving or starting P-gp inhibitors requires adjustment as indicated in the full prescribing information. Monitor these patients closely and promptly evaluate any signs or symptoms of blood loss.13
Renal and Hepatic Impairment
Patients with severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance [CrCl] equal to 15 to less than 30 mL/min, computed by Cockcroft-Gault using actual body weight) may have an increased risk of bleeding events. The dose of betrixaban for patients with severe renal impairment should be reduced. The manufacturer advises to monitor patients closely and promptly evaluate any signs or symptoms of blood loss in these patients. No dose adjustment is needed for mild or moderate renal impairment (CrCl greater than 30 mL/min, computed by Cockcroft-Gault using actual body weight).13
Betrixaban has not been evaluated in patients with hepatic impairment; therefore, its use is not recommended in these patients.13
Adverse Events
The most common adverse reactions to betrixaban occurring in more than 5% of patients in clinical trials were related to bleeding. Major bleeding occurred in less than 1% of patients. Adverse events occurring in 2% or less of patients receiving betrixaban included epistaxis, hematuria, urinary tract infection, and constipation.13
The recommended dosage of betrixaban is an initial single dose of 160 mg, followed by 80 mg once daily, taken at the same time each day with food. Patients with severe renal impairment or patients concomitantly starting or taking P-gp inhibitors should receive a reduced initial single dose of 80 mg followed by 40 mg once daily. The recommended duration of treatment for all patients is 35 to 42 days.13
Betrixaban is available in 40-mg and 80-mg capsules. The average wholesale price for either strength is $1,800 for a package of 100 ($18.00 per capsule).23
Direct comparisons of betrixaban and the other direct oral anticoagulants can be found in
In comparative systematic reviews, betrixaban showed a reduction of composite VTE events with no difference in bleeding compared to enoxaparin.24 Previous DOAC studies have shown an increase in bleeding rates in this population, further delineating betrixaban as a potentially preferred agent in this patient group.9,10,25
The downside of betrixaban is the lack of studied indications. Currently, betrixaban is only approved by the FDA for extended-duration VTE prevention in acute medically ill patients who are considered high risk. Even though betrixaban may be useful in patients taking medications with CYP drug interactions, betrixaban lacks indications for stroke prevention in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation and VTE treatment, which effect a greater percentage of the population.

|Stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation
|Betrixaban 40 mg, 60 mg, or 80 mg daily
|Warfarin adjusted to INR (2.0–3.0)
|RCT, open label. Blinded to betrixaban doses
|Time to occurrence of major or clinically relevant nonmajor bleeding was lowest with betrixaban 40 mg (HR, compared with warfarin, 0.14; 95% CI, 0.017–1.135;
|APEX (Phase 3)
|Extended prophylaxis in high-VTE-risk, acute, medically ill patients
|Betrixaban 160 mg loading dose followed by 80 mg once daily for 35–42 days with placebo enoxaparin for 10 ± 4 days
|Enoxaparin 40 mg SC for up to 10 ± 4 days followed by placebo betrixaban
|RCT, double blind, double dummy
|Efficacy (measured in mITT) was assessed by composite outcome score of asymptomatic proximal DVT or symptomatic DVT, nonfatal PE or VTE-related death: betrixaban reduced the incidence of DVT and PE blood clots compared with those taking enoxaparin plus placebo (4.4% vs. 6.0%; RR, 0.75; 95% CI, 0.61–0.91) with no significant increase in major bleeding (0.67% vs. 0.57%).
CI = confidence interval; DVT = deep vein thrombosis; HR = hazard ratio; INR = international normalized ratio; mITT = modified intent-to-treat; PE = pulmonary embolism; RCT = randomized controlled trial; RR = relative risk; SC = subcutaneously; VTE = venous thromboembolism.

Sunday's Terror Blast in Damascus is Shame on International Community- Syrian Students in Slovakia, Austria
Syrian students in Slovakia have described the coward terror blast that took place Sunday in Damascus as a 'heinous example' of extremist Takfiri terrorism and its supporters, who disrespect all international laws and moral values.
They said in a statement released Monday that the terror blast is a shame on the international community and it will not dissuade Syrian people, army and leadership from going ahead with fighting armed terrorist groups nationwide.
"The global terror war that has been waged on Syria for more than six years aims to destroy the country that supports resistance against Israeli occupation," the students said in the statement, asserting their readiness to enhance homeland's steadfastness till the achievement of victory over terrorism and its supporters.
Another statement condemning the terror blast was released by Syrian students and community in Austria.
"The Wahhabi Takfiri crime targets Syrian state and its institutions in order to serve the US-Zionist plots with the support of Gulf sheikhdoms and Turkish regime," the students and community said.
Meantime, the 'Hands Off Syria' Initiative denounced the shameful Arab and international silence towards terrorist groups' brutal crimes against Syrian people.
It called for holding criminals and their masters accountable, expressing their solidarity with Syrian army and leadership till restoration of stability and peace to Syria.
Yesterday, competent authorities persuaded 3 car bombs and destroyed 2 of them at Airport road in Damascus, while the third car bomb was surrounded in Bab Touma area where the suicide bomber driving the car detonated it, killing and injuring a number of civilians.
Since 2011, a foreign-backed terror war has been waged against Syria targeting its army, people, civilization and infrastructures in accordance with US-Zionist plot that aims to fragment the region and to have hegemony over its wealth.

How we Deal with Noise Complaints
When a noise nuisance complaint is made we will discuss the complaint with you and request a record of the nuisance. This will be completed by filling in a diary of the times and dates of the nuisance and how it has been affecting you – this would usually be for a minimum of two weeks.
Diary sheets provide us with useful information such as the character and intensity of the noise nuisance. Most importantly, your diary may well reveal patterns relating to the duration and frequency of the noise nuisance. We will use this information to decide whether to investigate further.
If a decision is made to investigate further, this includes:
- Visits to your property - A maximum of three visits will be made to assess for statutory nuisance
- Taking formal statements from you and other witnesses
- Interviewing the person responsible for the alleged nuisance
- Serving a legal notice if the statutory nuisance is found or is likely to occur from the person responsible
- Monitoring that the notice is being complied with. (This will involve further evidence gathering and witness statements)
- Beginning prosecution procedures against the noisemaker if appropriate
You will be kept informed of progress throughout the process by a named officer.
If we feel that we are unable to support your complaint, or if you do not want to use our services, you can take your legal action. You are strongly advised to consult a solicitor if taking your legal action. If you do employ a solicitor make sure that you get an estimate of the likely costs first.
You may decide to take action in either the Civil or Criminal Courts. All action by ourselves is undertaken in the Criminal Courts. Civil proceedings for nuisance are not a matter for us and you should seek separate legal advice if considering a Civil nuisance action.

Views expressed here are my own and do not reflect the views of my employer, for I do not have tenure.
My name is Jen Rowland. I'm a PhD candidate in environmental philosophy, with a research focus on climate ethics/justice and energy policy. I'm a recovering alcoholic, interested in philosophical questions about addiction and deeply committed to sobriety–I want to live deliberately. Pretty sure metaphysics is superstition with social climbing ambitions.
