There is nothing quite like silver and gold that speaks of Christmas to me -- and I suspect to most people. I chose this lovely card stock color for this card.
Lest you think that Design Team member never mess up on cards -- let me change your mind! I "knew" that embossing powder often spread and I knew therefore you can have difficulty getting words to emboss and look good. That is especially true if the font is small and close together. I just didn't think that these words were in such a small font, but oh yes they are! I had stamped them in Versamark and then covered with silver embossing powder. Oh, it was bad! I evidently do not have "detail" silver embossing powder! The words were a total mess. So I had to start over.
The second time I used Stazon silver metallic ink. The problem with that ink is that it dries very quickly so you must get the stamp die covered and stamped quickly. That took me several tries to get a successful image stamped. Then I cleaned it right away with Stazon cleaner. This ink doesn't come off easily even with Stazon cleaner.
I am using Technique Junkie Peace on Earth Dove - http://techniquejunkies.com/peace-on-earth-dove/. Next I reinked with Versamark the area around the dove and the larger block words in the bottom right corner. I covered the ink with detail gold embossing powder and heart embossed. Then I "fussy cut" out the dove and used dimensional to pop it up. I did the same the block words at the bottom.
I layered it on gold and then on the burgundy card stock to complete the card.
Don't forget all Technique Junkie Christmas stamps are on sale 25% through December 15.
Now to finish the rest of my cards, get presents wrapped and under the tree, and start on Christmas baking! -- Have a great day and get inky.

When to use FAT or NTFS
NTFS is currently the best file system for hard disks, when we consider Microsoft Windows. Even the latest versions of Windows (like Vista or Windows Server 2008) can read FAT-formatted partitions, but Vista wants to be installed onto an NTFS partition. Earlier versions of Windows could be installed on a FAT partition without any complaint.
So, new versions of Windows push you to use NTFS. However, there is a good reason for it. FAT simply can't provide the level of security required by the modern world, and it also produces too much overhead when working with large partitions, thus making disk usage less effective.
If you occasionally use older versions of Windows, like Windows 98 or Windows ME, you may need to have at least one partition formatted as FAT. There is no NTFS support in Windows 98, so it can't see NTFS partitions by default. However, there are programs that allow you to access NTFS partitions from Windows 98 and other old systems.
You may also consider using FAT on a small (under 500 MB) partition. While being less secure and robust, FAT outperforms NTFS on small volumes.
Yet another reason for using FAT may be a dual-boot computer with Linux or some other non-Windows operating system. Linux can read NTFS volumes, but it has difficulties with writing data into NTFS (Microsoft keeps the exact specification of NTFS in secret). In such a case, FAT volumes can be used for reliable and easy sharing of data between operating systems.
FAT is automatically used for diskettes and some other small media. It can be read by almost every operating system. However, having no built-in security, it is not recommended for sensitive data.

When you step inside Designer Rugs & Kilims, aka Jon's Rugs, in Pasadena you are stepping into much more than your typical antique rug store, you are entering an art gallery housing pieces that span hundreds of years of human history from all around the world. This gallery, meticulously curated by owner Jon Erin over his decades of experience, includes over 500 rugs, each specifically chosen not just for their aesthetic appeal or material quality, but moreover for their story and overall artistic impression. No two pieces are the same; each rug is one of a kind. The store is his personal collection, the manifestation of his expertise, which has been carefully developed by years of experience and forged by his passion for the industry.
Erin describes the experience he aims to provide, "I would like to really educate the people who come in … help them get exactly what they are looking for, give them information about the rug they are interested in, give them the history of the piece they buy, and tell them all about it. I like to be involved in their decorating. I try to help people who really are looking for that right rug that fits in their home … that makes a statement in their home."
Erin's business strives to develop relationships with customers, a notion that ties back to his origins in the rug business. He discovered his passion for rugs and his talent for dealing with customers during his youth when he worked in the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul, Turkey, which houses over 4,000 different shops. Erin applied his language skills (fluent in Turkish, Arabic, English, and French; and proficient in Italian and German) during weekends, summers, and vacations; working as a translator for vendors in the Bazaar in addition to helping guide and translate for tourists. Erin continued to do this, gradually amassing knowledge and cultivating his passion, until he graduated from an American school in Istanbul, Robert's College, in 1973 with a degree in civil engineering. For a couple of months thereafter he worked in southern Paris designing roads, until he decided it was time for a change. Civil engineering was not providing the social interaction under which Erin's passion thrives. "Engineering is interesting, I like it, I am good with numbers, but it is completely different from oriental rugs. With rugs you deal with people, while in engineering you deal with numbers," said Erin. So he followed his heart and opened a rug store with his brother in Istanbul that very same year. Seven years later, in 1980, they opened up shop in Williamsburg, Virginia, and in 1996 Jon's Rugs was born in Pasadena.
Located in the Pasadena Antique Center (480 S. Fair Oaks Ave.), a building from the 1920s that houses over 50 individual dealers, Erin's journey in the rug industry has in a sense come full circle: beginning in Istanbul's Grand Bazaar and now residing in Pasadena's own mini-Bazaar.
Designer Rugs & Kilims also provides unique cleaning, restoration, and appraisal services, personally guided by Erin's recommendations and expertise. For more information or to schedule a time to meet with the rug guru himself call (626) 487-9651.

Introduction: How to Make Teddy Bear Cake Pops
These are a lot of fun to make and a lot of yum to eat! These cute teddy bears are fun,easy and small so you can have more than one.
Teacher Notes
Teachers! Did you use this instructable in your classroom?
Add a Teacher Note to share how you incorporated it into your lesson.
Step 1: What You Will Need
What you will need:
-Any type of cake mix
-Wilton White Decorator Icing
-Icing colors - not food coloring
-Chocolate chips
-Decorating bag
-Star tip #21
-Any type of stick
Step 2: For Starters
To start you will make your cake pops and let them cool.Next you will insert your star tip #21 then fill your icing bag, if you have coloring you will want to color the icing first.I found it easier to ice one side before inserting the stick.Hold your bag at a 60 degree angle then set your tip on the cake pop and start making a star but make it a little longer and then pull it down. start from the bottom and work your way up.
Step 3: Almost There
When you finish one side use the chocolate chips to create the face. For the eyes I cut off the tip of the chip with a knife.
Step 4: The End
When done with the face put the stick in the pop and complete the other side. There you have it you've made a Teddy Bear Cake Pop!

Coach Kristina Cavallo has led turnaround for unbeaten Clarke
Some would say third time's a charm.
Sarah Cornell and Michelle Buffolino, seniors on the Clarke girls volleyball team, have been on varsity since their freshman years. In four years on varsity, they've undergone multiple coaching changes.
Three coaches to be exact.
"Every year you have to get used to a new coach and a new vibe," Buffolino said. "The team never got a chance to click."
Everything is clicking now.
Kristina Cavallo has led the Rams to a 12-0 record in Nassau BC-II in her first year as coach. Their most recent win was a relatively close one over Carle Place, 3-0, on Wednesday.
Cavallo had work to do right from the onset of the season. It wasn't so much about changing the talent, she said, but more about accountability.
"I wasn't looking to rebuild a program," Cavallo said about the Rams' 6-9 record last season. "I just wanted to build a little every day."
Buffolino and Cornell are the team's top players, but Victoria Cast, Emily Widmaier, Lauren Savino and others routinely show up in highlights. Cavallo had to be strict in the beginning to make the pieces fit correctly.
"I think she's more disciplined than any coach we've ever had," Cornell said. "But she gets the job done."
Cavallo, a former college softball player at Adelphi, said those who have coached her in the past motivate her to preach accountability.
"I ran a tight ship in the beginning, not to be too strict, but to let everyone know we're here to work hard," Cavallo said. "I like consequences, so I can keep them on their toes. If a ball drops in practice and no one calls it, everyone drops and does five push-ups."
Cavallo recalled the Rams' match against Wheatley on Sept. 24 as a turning point. At the time, both were undefeated. Wheatley led that match 2-1 before Clarke rallied to take the final two games. That proved to all of the Rams that they could be something special.
"At that point we knew that we had so much potential," Buffolino said. "We went to the fifth game and it was back and forth. It was bonding experience. We never wanted a game so badly."
Wheatley is one of the final tests for Clarke on the road to a 16-0 season. The Rams' next match is against them on Tuesday.
Despite uncharted territory, Cavallo is keeping her players in check with one simple message -- another one she learned from a former coach.
"Hustle, heart and communication -- three things that take no skill but we need them all the time," she said. "We have to pick each other up and pick up the slack."
Buffolino said Cavallo will enjoy the moment after their goals are accomplished.
"She knows that we have a job to get done," Buffolino said. "Once we get that job done, she's all about having fun on and off the court."

Credit Spreads, Commissions and Watch Lists
Occasionally I write articles answering students' questions on various topics regarding options trading, and I will do so this week. First I will address a student's concerns regarding commissions when it comes to credit spreads. Then I will address a question about watch lists and how many lists options traders really need to be successful.
The first question concerns the issue of credit spreads. Basically the student's biggest concern was the fact that selling a short vertical spread on an ETF brings in so little premium and that out of the credit premium, the commission needs to be paid before one could state that the trade was worthwhile doing.
My comment to that observation is – yes. The observation is accurate and correct. A trader ought to count in the cost of commissions; it is simply a part of the "game." However, for those who have been around for awhile the cost of commission today is laughable in comparison to what it used to be. When I was starting I actually had to figure the cost commissions into my Profit and Loss prior to the entry. Back then there was a ticket charge plus the commission per contract. Not that the remnant of that legacy is completely dead today, for instance some brokerages are still charging, on average, a ticket cost of 9.99 plus 0.75 per contract. Hence, if a trader is considering a trade only with single units, then the calculation would be the following:
The cost of long call premium plus (9.99 + 0.75) $10.74 to get in and also $10.74 to get out; hence to be profitable the long call must make (2×10.74) $21.48 just to break even. Knowing this prior to the entry, a trader really has to be quite convinced that his long directional call is going to increase in premium within the time frame of the contract he or she has purchased.
However, if the trader chose a short vertical (which has two option contracts) then the commission cost is (9.99 + 0.75 + 0.75) $11.49 if the trade is entered as a spread trade. If it was not entered as a spread but rather as "legging in" then the commission structure is slightly different.
Let us assume that first the long leg is purchased. This would have commissions the same as the earlier example of a long call (9.99 + 0.75) $10.74. Once the long leg was filled, the trader could then sell a short call against the long call creating a spread. (In this case whether the trade is short vertical, long vertical, diagonal, or horizontal is not a part of discussion.) The short trade would again generate the same type of commission (9.99 + 0.75) $10.74. This is how things used to be prior to the brokerage companies coming up with spread trading platforms.
Now compare legging in versus opening a single spread in the following table.
|Trade Type Entry
|Legging In
|(9.99 + 0.75) x 2
|(9.99 + 0.75 + 0.75)
|$10.74 x 2 = $21.48
Keep in mind that if these two trades were to be exited then there would also be commissions for exiting.
Next let us move a notch higher, to Butterflies and Iron Condors. These option strategies are four commission creatures and that is just for the entry. Hence it is easy to see how the student who e-mailed really has a valid point. One of the best ways to deal with this issue is by choosing a brokerage company that does not charge a (hateful & outdated) ticket charge but only a flat per contract fee. For instance, Trade Station charges OTA students $1.00 per contract initially and then at the month's end it reimburses 20% of the commissions in the form of a small credit in each trader's account. This brings down the commission to only 80 cents. In short, the commission structure in general has dropped quite significantly from what it used to be, yet it still needs to be taken into account.
Another question I received concerns a different issue: a watch list; or should I say watch list(s) – plural. Way too many students come to us with multiple watch lists each containing dozens of candidates. Just ask yourself, "Is this efficient?" The goal of trading education is to enable oneself to accomplish more while doing less. Having many different watch lists is often counterproductive. Less is more. Let me emphasize the point this way: Remember that trading options involves much more than just looking at the technical chart, right? Though that might come as a shocker for novice traders, those who have attended the Online Trading Academy Professional Option Trader course know about our check list that looks at Open Interest (liquidity), strike increments, and the width of the Bid/Ask spread. Even if the stock, ETF, or an underlying asset qualifies for a directional trade from technical analysis, one of these items on the check list might disqualify it. Hence after so many weeks, or even months, of "searching for candidates" and weeding out the ones that don't meet the check list rules, an option trader will come up with only a select few assets to trade. These few qualify by the check list requirements week after week, month after month. Then the question becomes why even bother WASTING time searching for more candidates. In my humble opinion one should have only three watch lists: one for Bullish set ups, one for Bearish ones, and the in between's, meaning range bound. Those are the only three watch lists needed.
In conclusion, we have addressed two very different areas involved in option trading. Option traders do need to take into consideration the commissions they are paying in relation to the profits they are taking in, especially on out of the money credit spreads. Fortunately, the commission structure has changed to benefit traders in recent years. Make sure your broker offers a fair commission structure. We also discussed being efficient with our watch lists and option selection. These are two of the many areas that a trader should be aware of as they embark into the realm of trading options.

How do you feel about your garden in winter? If you look out of the window and find it dreary, uninteresting – a bit mournful, even – it's probably because it lacks structure.
Good structure is a really important component of successful garden design, and comes in a number of forms. The first, and probably the most important, is evergreen trees and shrubs. The second is hard landscaping – the paths, patios, walls and fences that connect and enclose the garden. The third is less permanent features such as arches, bird baths, pots, urns and statues.
When we moved to our London terrace, it was essentially a long strip of grass on two levels, divided by a retaining brick wall and a few steps. The trees and shrubs poked out of a scrubby lawn, planted to hug the fences on either side. The result was a rather uninspiring space where all the height was concentrated at the sides of the garden, pretty much all of it visible at a glance from the back door.
Garden before
The same garden but with a bit more structure
If your garden is similar in terms of interest, winter is the time to start making plans to change this. The majority of plants are in their dormant period now, so you can see what's what and where the 'bones' of the garden need strengthening or realigning.
Grab a pen and notebook and take stock of your evergreens first. They're the backbone of a garden and, while you may not give them much thought in summer, in winter they're essential. When I studied garden design, the first thing they taught us was that when designing a planting plan, two-thirds of all shrubs and trees should be evergreen. At the time I was sceptical, but it's a rule I've made a big effort to stick to, in my own garden and when designing for clients. It's not easy; in fact, it's a constant struggle not to get distracted by foliage and flower colour. But it really works. Be bold with evergreens. They bring year-round colour, interest and form.
The shape of your evergreens is important. Most of mine are softly domed. That's because I want my garden to make me feel calm. Rounded shrubs such as choisya, box or ilex balls, and hebes create a soothing, tranquil feel. They also bring a sense of security and containment. The repetition of similar plant forms within the garden – domes, balls, fans or uprights – creates harmony, too.
But then you have to break the rules. Too much of a good thing can be boring, so add other complementary forms for interest. A columnar yew among a group of hummocked box, for example, is a winning combination. Tall, narrow shrubs such as Italian cypress and rock mountain juniper (Juniperus scopulorum 'Skyrocket') are assertive, acting like exclamation marks in a garden and draw in the eye. Or use them in groups of three for a focal point that's a little less shouty.
Evergreens with strong, bold shapes are transformational, and will add drama and excitement, especially when combined with large spiky leaves. They're the basis for an architectural, sculptural garden. Think yukkas, phormiums and mahonias.
There are plenty of evergreen climbers worth planting, too. Star jasmine (Trachelospermum jasminoides) is my favourite – all the scent and dainty white flowers of the classic summer jasmine, but with big glossy green leaves that bronze up nicely in autumn. It copes well in shade, too.
Star Jasmine
But what about those awful dank, dark Edwardian shrubberies, you cry. Too many rhododendrons and viburnums will certainly overpower a garden. As will cherry laurels. They're overbearing and brutish. Glossy deep green leaves brighten up a winter garden, but choose carefully, and make sure you vary the size, or texture, of the leaf. So instead of cherry laurel in a shady corner, go for something like Sarcococca hookeriana instead. It's equally tolerant of deep shade but has small, shiny mid-green leaves, the stems awash with hugely fragrant feathery ivory flowers in winter.
Getting structure right in your garden is about learning to think about evergreens in a different way. They're far from boring; a winter garden without them is sparse, uninviting and dull. Throw in a few handfuls of evergreens, planted with balance and harmony, and you have a garden with that will invite you in, even through the darkest days of winter.

Take some time to write up an attractive sales listing. Look at some current Work Online to get some ideas. You will get an concept of the key areas that other sellers cover as nicely as how they use key words to assist promote their items.

If you are astonished to see the adorable dogs for sale at an on-line store that is far absent from your house, then it is recommended not to go for it. Rather, maintain searching for a similar pup at online pet stores, which you can physically go to any time. Contact them up and inquire them to fix a meeting when you will get to see the puppies for sale and take decision accordingly. Notice the puppies closely for couple of minutes; if possible attempt to pet them. In this way, you will be in a position to discover their conduct, health circumstances and so on.

Traffic Blasters experienced quite a few totally free "blasters". To name a couple of,"Safelist Mailer one", "Mail to 43 million daily", "Submit to fifty million daily", and on and on. I've mailed out ads to almost 2 billion, 3 hundred million and haven't made 1 sale. Now either they are not mailing my emails, or they have false addresses on them. I don't know. I wish I did.

One choice I like to use is to do a lookup for companies in my nearby region. I place something like "plumbers in the Canberra", and just see the quantity of businesses that show up in the listings. What I am searching for are small businesses, so I would immediately reduce out the large players, as they would be much as well difficult to method straight. When you do discover those companies, go to their web site and solid a crucial eye more than it. All you are performing is checking to see whether or not the site is in fact doing them any great. The way to confirm this is to go to companies that are listed on pages 3, four, or even greater pages. That way you can be certain that their Work Online will not be seen by the individual looking for that company in that city or city.

Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement
This statement is made pursuant to Section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015. It relates to the financial year 1 January 2018 to 31 December 2018. This statement covers the activities of The People's Dispensary for Sick Animals and its three wholly-owned subsidiaries PDSA Trading Limited, PDSA Property Services Limited, and PDSA PetAid Enterprises Limited.
This statement sets out PDSA's commitment to identifying, reducing and eliminating slavery and human trafficking within its organisation and its supply chains.
We acknowledge our responsibility to comply with all principles of the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
Structure and Supply Chains
We are the UK's leading veterinary charity. Every year, the dedicated teams at our 48 Pet Hospitals work tirelessly to provide 2.7 million veterinary treatments – including 440,000 preventive treatments. This helps over 470,000 much-loved pets and brings peace of mind to 300,000 owners.
PDSA was founded in 1917 by Maria Dickin with the aim of improving the welfare of pets and alleviating poverty. Throughout the past 100-plus years, we have delivered veterinary support to those in need, as well as providing preventive and educational services.
We have around 2,050 employed staff and over 3,600 volunteers at any one time.
We have a variety of supply chains that provide goods, services and works to support the delivery of our frontline services as well as enabling internal functions to deliver services within the organisation. The vast majority of our suppliers and contractors are based in the UK or the EU. We acknowledge that there may be modern slavery occurring in our supply chains that we are not aware of and we are committed to continuously improving our processes and procedures to identify, reduce and eliminate this wherever possible.
PDSA has an Ethical Statement in place that covers a number of wider issues. It is shared with our contractors and they are required to follow it as part of our contracting process. This will be reviewed and updated in 2019.
We have a number of policies that help us to reduce the risks that modern slavery may be part of our own organisation; these include policies covering recruitment, grievances, harassment and bullying, whistleblowing and safeguarding.
Due Diligence Processes
Our Contracts & Procurement Team provide support and guidance to the organisation in relation to procurement activities. As such, our updated Supplier Questionnaire contains questions relating to the Modern Slavery Act and our New Supplier Request Form requires a statement to be confirmed that due diligence has been carried out in relation to modern slavery. When negotiating contracts we include clauses relating to modern slavery and PDSA's Ethical Statement.
Modern Slavery Project Group
We recognise that there is always more that we can be doing as an organisation to minimise the risk of modern slavery occurring in our supply chains.
In order to further develop our approach to modern slavery, a Project Group has been established by the Senior Management Team. This Group is sponsored by the Director of Human & Corporate Resources and led by the Contracts & Procurement Manager.
The Project Group will be looking to develop our approach across a number of areas including policy, risk assessment, auditing, measuring effectiveness and further training for staff. The Project Group includes representatives from various disciplines including veterinary services, marketing, corporate partnerships, HR, internal audit and buying teams, and has the support of all senior managers.
The Project Group will:
- Identify supply chains that may be at high risk of modern slavery
- Categorise these based on risk / value / impact
- Develop an audit methodology and trial its use.
Our commitment
We recognise the impact that our procurement and purchasing activities, along with our corporate partnerships, can have on reducing modern slavery in the UK and around the world. We are committed to not only challenging ourselves to do better but also our suppliers, contractors and partners.
This Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement was approved by the Board of Trustees and ratified at its meeting on 28 March 2019.

DeVille - Set List
Help! How do I play these music files?
It's easy! Just double-click on the link and Windows Media Player (or whatever music player you have installed on your PC) should run and start playing the music file within a few seconds. Make sure you have your speakers plugged in and switched on.
If you have a Broadband internet connection (which is very fast), then the music files should play very smoothly straight away.
However, if you have a standard "Dialup" connection (your modem dials up to allow you to make the connection to the internet) then you will find the music file stops and starts all the time. This is because your PC music player is trying to stream or play the music as it downloads to your hard drive but your internet connection isn't fast enough to play the music smoothly.
If that is what is happening to you, then all you have to do is let the music stagger through once (it is downloading as this is happening) and then it will play at full speed after that. You can then listen to the the music file as many times as you want.
Alternatively, you can download the mp3 first and play it from your Hard Drive. To do this, just right-click on the mp3 link and select "Save target as" from the drop-down menu.
You can then save the mp3 file to your Desktop or any other folder of your choice.
When the mp3 file is completely downloaded, double-click on it and it will play immediately on Windows Media player or whatever music player you have installed.
We hope that has helped you. If not, just give us a ring on 0141 577 6604 and we'll talk you through it.
We're here to help you in any way we can.

The ultralight and thin craze has greatly changed the landscape of Ultrabooks and now it's making waves in world of the 15-inch laptops. In 2015 we saw some incredibly thin and powerful notebooks like the Toshiba Satellite Radius 15 and Dell XPS 15. Now HP is introducing Spectre x360 15 as one of the thinnest 15-inch 2-in-1 laptops.
Measuring just 0.63-inches (16mm) thin, it comes at the same thickness as its 13-inch Ultrabook sibling, the HP Spectre x360 13. What's more, the starting weight of this rig is just four pounds, making the HP Spectre x360 15 truly one of the thinnest and lightest 15.6-inch laptop to come out this year.
The HP Spectre x360 15 is just absurdly thin and while holding it up, it feels almost like you're wielding the dirk-version of Cloud's sword from Final Fantasy VII. Luckily it's not designed to be as sharp as cheese-cutting MacBook Air. Instead, the edges are blunt, nicely rounded and feature a mirrored finish for a classy touch.
The device feels as solid as a single sheet of metal and that's not surprising because that's exactly what they're made of. Each notebook is machine CNC'ed from a single block of aluminum that makes it extremely solid.
It's a similar process to the way 15-inch MacBook Pros are made, but Apple's notebook isn't as thin measuring 0.71 inches (18mm) thick and weighing 4.49 pounds (2.04kg).
Of course, the MacBook has the advantage of being outfitted with discrete graphics whereas the HP's 15-inch hybrid can only be optioned with integrated Intel Iris graphics. Similarly, the Dell XPS 15 is a thicker 0.66-inch (17mm) system that's also heavier 4.4 pounds (2kg) but it can be configured with a Nvidia GTX 960m for greater graphics potential.
Big on sound and media
While the HP Spectre x360 won't be winning any awards for the best graphics on a 15-inch laptop, the Iris graphics will be more than enough to drive its 4K screen. And the 3,820 x 2,160 resolution display is a real treat being sharp, bright and colorful for multimedia.
That said, the bezels are huge, especially with the bottom lip measuring nearly an inch and a half. The bezels can be a bit of a distraction from what is otherwise a really pleasing display.
Backing 4K screen up is not two, but four Bang & Olufsen tuned speakers. Sadly, they don't all fire at the same time to amplify the overall sound space of this convertible notebook. Instead, the two tweeters built into the keyboard deck will sound off while you're using the device as a notebook and switch to the two bottom mounted speakers when its converted into tablet mode.
The idea is you'll always have forward firing audio setup, which is a big step up from other notebooks usually outfitted with side or bottom mounted speakers.
Users will also appreciate the extremely spacious and wide trackpad that nearly spans across half of the device. The keyboard also feels springy with a lively switches and 1.5mm of travel on each key, though, I wish there was some way HP could have squeezed in a number pad as you'd expect on these larger 15-inch notebooks.
Specifications and pricing
Releasing on February 14, the HP Spectre x360 15 will be available at Best Buy and direct from HP's website for a starting price of $1,149 (about £778, AU$1,573). You'll be able to configure this convertible notebook with sixth generation Intel Core i5 and i7 processors.
For storage options, users will be able to spec up to a 512GB SSD. Memory expansion, meanwhile, is capped at 16GB of DDR3 RAM.
More impressively, HP has managed to squeeze in a 64.5 Whr battery, which should translate to 13 hours of run time on Full HD models and 9.5 hours on an Ultra HD display-equipped Spectre x360 15.
The 15-inch hybrid also features one USB-Type-C connector that supports up to 5GB of data transfer and charging peripheral devices, but it can't push a video channel. However, this laptop still comes with a mini DisplayPort and HDMI, as well as three USB 3.0 ports with Sleep and Charge capability.
Early verdict
The HP Spectre x360 15 is an impressively thin and light hybrid notebook with more than a few features to make it stand out. It's a sleek machine that's thinner and lighter than most 15-inch laptops.
While you won't be able to configure it with a dedicated GPU, it features a gorgeous 4K display and a unique audio setup making it excellent for watching movies. If the long battery life claims hold water in our full review, this could be one standout laptop for students and creatives.

Purdue Pharma and their old foe Impax Laboratories will once again face off over a generic version of OyxContin. According to this report from the San Francisco Business Times, Purdue challenged Impax's drug application for its opiate-based painkiller filed this week. Back in 2007, Purdue and Impax reached a settlement which allowed Impax to sell its generic drug in limited amounts after Impax and other pharmaceutical companies claimed Purdue's stringent patent claims were unenforceable. This comes just weeks after Purdue filed a similar suit against Watson Laboratories.

text: The University Programs Council began hosting its annual Welcome Week Aug. 24, spending nearly $100,000 on events to entertain students and provide inclusive spaces for both new and returning students. The organization allocated about $60,000 of its funds for the week towards the T-Pain concert, UPC Chair and fourth-year College student Debbie Yoo said in an interview with The Cavalier Daily. Other events included Amp Up the Arts, which was an event held in the McIntire Amphitheater with food vendors and crafts, a screening of the hit Marvel movie Black Panther and Rotunda Sing — a night of performances from University choir and acapella groups. UPC also hosted shows by comedian Sasheer Zamata and hypnotist Tom Deluca. Rotunda Sing cost UPC approximately $3,500, Yoo said. Amp Up the Arts — a night of food vendors, crafts and activities — cost $11,000, and Zamata and Deluca cost approximately $18,000 and $4,200 respectively. UPC's events budget has not changed from last year. The T-Pain concert was a part of the Hoo's Home event — a new school-year welcome back and kickoff event organized by UPC in conjunction with Orientation and New Student Programs, Student Engagement, Housing and Residence Life and Intramural-Recreational Sports. Yoo added there was positive student response to the concert, which UPC offers as an alternative to the Wertland Street apartment and house parties — also referred to as "Block Party" among University students. "My friends said they'd noticed there were fewer people at Block Party," Yoo said. "There was a big crowd at the T-Pain concert. We had about 5,500 students come, and we had a big crowd at the Hoo's Home activities in the AFC afterwards. There were about two to three thousand people there." Block Party has been a source of concern for the University administration. Dean of Students Allen Groves addressed the UPC events as a safer alternative to the block parties in a University-wide email to students before the school year started. "[The parties] are a great concern for many of us, given the size of the crowd and the demonstrated potential for negative (and highly serious) incidents to occur," Groves wrote in his email. "Sexual assault, dangerously crowded balconies, underage drinking, and other risks inherent in large crowds of individuals you do not know are all very real concerns." Police arrested only one person at this year's Block Party for public intoxication. With the bigger turnout, Yoo said students are realizing the Welcome Week events are ones they would like to attend. "Not only UPC, but also HRL and Class Council and IM-Rec see it as a joint effort that they can build for future years," Yoo said. "And it's just like the start of something that they can do for future years, and they can see that there's a big turnout as well. People do enjoy it."

Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (INPH) is a dementia treatable by insertion of a cerebrospinal fluid shunt. It has been suggested that INPH has similar pathophysiological mechanisms as cerebrovascular disease, but the vascular risk factor (VRF) profile of INPH patients has not been assessed using a modern epidemiological approach. The cognitive symptoms of INPH resemble the symptoms of depression, but the prevalence of depression among INPH patients is unknown. In addition, few studies investigate the impact of shunting on the quality of life (QoL), and no study has investigated the impact of comorbidity on QoL in INPH patients.
The objective of this dissertation was to present the VRF profile of INPH and to investigate the hypothesis that INPH may be a subgroup of vascular dementia. Additional objectives were to assess the prevalence of depression in INPH patients and to investigate the impact of shunting and comorbidities on QoL in INPH.
In the first cohort, the prevalence of possible INPH was assessed through clinical and radiological examinations in patients with a transient ischemic attack (TIA), consecutively admitted to the same hospital during 2006-2008. In the second cohort, VRFs, vascular disease and QoL were analysed in INPH patients consecutively shunted 2008-2010 in five out of six neurosurgical centres in Sweden. Patients remaining after inclusion (n=176, within the age-span 60-85 years and not having dementia) were compared to population-based age- and gender-matched controls (n=368, same inclusion criteria as for the INPH patients). Assessed VRFs were: hypertension, diabetes, obesity, hyperlipidemia, psychosocial factors (stress and depression), smoking, alcohol intake, physical activity and, dietary pattern. Cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and peripheral vascular disease as well as QoL were also assessed. Parameters were assessed through questionnaires, clinical examinations, measurements, ECG and, blood samples.
In the first cohort, 4% of the TIA patients had clinically and radiologically verified INPH. In the second cohort, VRFs were overrepresented among the INPH patients compared with the controls. The VRFs independently associated with INPH were: hyperlipidemia (Odds ratio (OR): 2.4, 95%CI: 1.4-4.0), diabetes (OR: 2.2, 95%CI: 1.2-3.9), obesity (OR: 5.4, 95%CI: 2.5-11.8) and, psychosocial factors (OR: 5.3, 95%CI: 3.2-8.9). When adding the VRFs that were overrepresented in INPH, although not independently (physical inactivity and hypertension), these six VRFs accounted for 24% of the INPH cases in the elderly population (population attributable risk %: 24). Depression was overrepresented in shunted INPH patients compared to the controls (46% vs. 13%, p<0.001) and the main predictor for low QoL was a coexisting depression (p<0.001).
In conclusion, the results of the INPH-CRasH study are consistent with a vascular pathophysiological component of INPH and indicate that INPH may be subgroup of vascular dementia. In clinical care and research, a complete risk factor analysis as well as screening for depression and a measurement for quality of life should be included in the work-up of INPH patients. The effect of targeted interventions against modifiable VRFs and anti-depressant treatment in INPH patients should be evaluated.
Idiopatisk normaltryckshydrocefalus (INPH, från engelskans "idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus") är en neurokirurgiskt behandlingsbar demens. Behandlingen är att operera in en shunt som dränerar cerebrospinalvätska från ventriklarna. Det har föreslagits att INPH skulle kunna orsakas av liknande patofysiologiska mekanismer som vid cerebrovaskulär sjukdom, men den vaskulära riskfaktorprofilen hos INPH-patienter har aldrig undersökts i en modern epidemiologisk studie. De kognitiva symtomen vid INPH påminner om symtomen vid depression, men prevalensen av depression hos INPH-patienter är okänd. Få studier undersöker hur shuntning påverkar livskvalitet och ingen studie har undersökt hur komorbiditet påverkar livskvaliteten vid INPH.
Syftet med den här avhandlingen var att undersöka den vaskulära riskfaktorprofilen hos INPH-patienter samt att utforska hypotesen att INPH skulle kunna vara en undergrupp till vaskulär demens. Ytterligare ett syfte med avhandlingen var att undersöka hur många INPH-patienter som har depression samt undersöka hur shunting och komorbiditet påverkar livskvalitet vid INPH.
I den första kohorten undersöktes kliniska och radiologiska fynd som tydde på INPH hos de patienter som blivit diagnostiserade med en TIA (från engelskans: transient ischemic attack) 2006-2008 på Norrlands Universitetssjukhus i Umeå. I den andra kohorten undersöktes konsekutivt shuntade INPH-patienter 2008-2010 från fem av sex neurokirurgiska kliniker i Sverige. De patienter som inkluderades i studien (n=176, ålder: 60-85 år, ej dementa) jämfördes med köns- och åldersmatchade kontroller från normalpopulationen (n=368, samma inklusionskriterier som för INPH-patienterna). De riskfaktorer som undersöktes var: hypertension, hyperlipidemi, diabetes, fetma, psykosociala faktorer (stress och depression), rökning, alkohol, fysisk aktivitet och diet. Även kardiovaskulära och cerebrovaskulära sjukdomar undersöktes, liksom perifer vaskulär sjukdom samt livskvalitet. Datainsamling skedde genom frågeformulär, kliniska undersökningar, mätningar, EKG och blodprov.
I den första kohorten hade 4% av TIA-patienterna kliniskt och radiologiskt verifierad INPH. I den andra kohorten var vaskulära riskfaktorer överrepresenterade hos INPH-patienterna jämfört med iv normalpopulationen. Hyperlipidemi (OR: 2.4, 95%CI: 1.4-4.0), diabetes (OR: 2.2, 95%CI: 1.2-3.9), fetma (OR: 5.4, 95%CI: 2.5-11.8) och psykosociala faktorer (OR: 5.3, 95%CI: 3.2-8.9) var associerade med INPH oberoende av kön, ålder och de andra riskfaktorerna. Hypertension och fysisk inaktivitet var också associerade med INPH, dock inte oberoende av övriga riskfaktorer. Sammanlagd PAR% (från engelskans: population attributable risk %) för de här sex riskfaktorerna var 24%. INPH-patienterna hade depression i högre utsträckning än kontrollerna (46% vs. 13%, p<0.001), och depression var den viktigaste prediktorn för låg livskvalitet.
Resultaten tyder på att vaskulär sjukdom och vaskulära riskfaktorer är involverade i den patofysiologiska mekanismen vid INPH. INPH kan vara en undergrupp till vaskulär demens. En fullständig riskfaktoranalys och screening för depression bör ingå i den preoperativa utvärderingen såväl som i forskning på INPH-patienter, och ett mått på livskvalitet bör införas. Effekten av riktade insatser mot såväl vaskulära riskfaktorer som depression vid INPH bör utvärderas.
Objectives - Dilated ventricles and gait disturbances are common in the elderly, and these are also features of the treatable syndrome idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (INPH). Many studies report an association between hypertension, vascular disease and INPH. The objective of this study was to study the frequency of ventriculomegaly, with or without hydrocephalic symptoms, in patients who had suffered from a transitory ischaemic attack (TIA).
Methods - Gait, Romberg sign, tandem standing and one-leg stance were consecutively evaluated in elderly >24 h after a TIA. Ventricular size, white matter lesions and atrophy were assessed on computed tomography scans. Exclusion criteria were conditions possibly influencing the balance tests.
Results - Seventy-six patients with TIA out of 105 were included. Ventriculomegaly [Evans Index (EI) > 0.30] was observed in 19.7% and very large ventricles (EI > 0.33) in 7.9%. Ventriculomegaly was found in 58% of the patients with a previous 'history of balance or gait disturbance', but only in 12% of those without any prior disturbance (chi-square test; P = 0.0009). Three out of 76 patients with TIA (3.9%) fulfilled both radiological and clinical criteria for 'possible INPH'.
Conclusion - Ventriculomegaly is a common finding in elderly. One out of 20 patients with TIA may suffer from INPH, existing before and independent of the TIA diagnosis. Therefore, patients presenting with ventriculomegaly and gait/balance disturbances not attributable to other causes should be referred to a hydrocephalus centre or a neurologist with special interest in INPH.
The objective was to determine the complete modern vascular risk factor (VRF) profile of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (INPH) using a large sample of representative INPH-patients and population-based controls, in order to confirm the impact of vascular disease on INPH pathophysiology.
All shunted INPH-patients in Sweden 2008-2010 were compared to age- and gender-matched population-based controls. Inclusion criteria: 60-85 years and mini mental state estimation ³23. The ten most important modern VRFs as well as cerebrovascular and peripheral vascular disease were prospectively assessed through blood samples, by-protocol clinical examinations and standardized questionnaires. Investigated VRFs: hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, obesity, psychosocial factors, smoking, diet, alcohol intake, cardiac disease and, physical activity.
After exclusion, 176 INPH-patients and 368 controls participated. Using multivariable logistic regression, hyperlipidemia (OR: 2.380, 95%CI: 1.434-3.950), diabetes (OR: 2.169, 95%CI: 1.195-3.938), obesity (OR: 5.428, 95%CI: 2.502-11.772) and, psychosocial factors (OR: 5.343, 95%CI: 3.219-8.868) were independently associated with INPH. Hypertension, physical inactivity, cerebrovascular and peripheral vascular disease were overrepresented in INPH, although not independently. The protective factors: moderate alcohol intake and physical activity were overrepresented among the controls. The population attributable risk percentage was 24%.
Our findings confirm that INPH-patients have a more dangerous VRF-profile and lack the protective factors present in the population. Almost one quarter of INPH could be explained by VRF, suggesting that INPH possibly may be a subgroup of vascular dementia. Targeted interventions against modifiable VRF are likely to have beneficial effects in INPH.
BACKGROUND: If patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (INPH) also have depression, this could have important clinical ramifications in assessment and management of their cognitive function and response to shunting. In many dementias, depression is overrepresented, but the prevalence of depression in shunted patients with INPH is unknown.
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this case-control study was to assess the prevalence of symptoms of depression in shunted INPH patients compared with population-based controls.
METHODS: INPH patients consecutively shunted from 2008 to 2010 in Sweden were analyzed. Patients remaining after inclusion (within 60-85 years and not having dementia, ie, mini-mental state examination >=23) had a standardized visit to their healthcare provider and answered an extensive questionnaire. Age- and sex-matched population-based controls underwent the same procedure. Symptoms of depression were assessed using the Geriatric Depression Scale 15 (suspected depression defined as >=5 points, suspected severe depression as >=12 points). This study is part of the INPH-CRasH study.
RESULTS: One hundred seventy-six INPH patients and 368 controls participated. After adjustment for age, sex, cerebrovascular disease, and systolic and diastolic blood pressure, patients had a higher mean depression score (patients: 4.9 ± 3.7 SD, controls: 1.9 ± 2.3 SD; OR 1.4, 95% CI 1.3-1.6, P < .001), more patients had suspected depression (46% vs 13%, OR 6.4, 95% CI 3.8-10.9, P < .001), and more patients had suspected severe depression (7.3% vs 0.6%, OR 14.4, 95% CI 3.0-68.6, P < .005).
CONCLUSION: Symptoms of depression are overrepresented in INPH patients compared with the population, despite treatment with a shunt. Screening for depression should be done in the evaluation of INPH patients in order to find and treat a coexisting depression.
Measurements of quality of life (QoL) are important when evaluating a surgical method. However, QoL after shunting in idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (INPH) is seldom assessed. The objective of this study was to assess QoL in a large cohort of shunted INPH patients, compared to the population, and investigate which factors influence QoL in INPH.
All INPH patients shunted in Sweden 2008-2010 were scrutinized. Population-based controls were age- and gender-matched to the patients. One hundred and seventy-six INPH patients and 368 controls were included. QoL was assessed using the EQ5D5L instrument, measuring overall QoL and health status in five dimensions. Independency, measured by accommodation and need for in-home care, and comorbidities were assessed. Patients were followed up 6-45 months after surgery (mean follow-up time: 21 months).
Shunted INPH patients had lower QoL than controls (p<0.001). The patients' health status in mobility, self-care, daily activities, and anxiety/depression was worse than the controls both before and after surgery (p<0.001). Shunting improved QoL (p<0.001) and health status in all dimensions (p<0.005). The main predictors of low QoL in INPH were depression (p<0.001) and severity of gait disturbance (p=0.001). Fewer INPH patients than controls lived independently (45% vs 85%, p<0.001) Time after shunting had no influence on QoL.
Improvement in QoL after shunting in INPH is long lasting, but shunted INPH patients do not reach the same level of QoL as the population. Depression and severity of gait disturbance are the strongest predictors of low QoL in INPH.

PMI funds for Malawi have helped more children reach their fifth birthday. Death rates in children under age five have fallen 48 percent since 2006.

Malaria is a persistent foe along the forested border between Thailand and Burma. In these remote areas, health services are limited and reaching a health facility can be arduous. Rubber plantations in Ranong Province, located in southwestern Thailand, employ a large number of Burmese migrants who account for a large portion of the malaria burden in the area. In La-un District for example, approximately two-thirds of malaria cases occur among Burmese migrant workers. Furthermore, 25 percent of all patients diagnosed with a Plasmodium falciparum infection in this district have gametocyte forms of the malaria parasites in their blood, indicating that patients did not seek care for weeks after being infected or after the first symptoms appeared. Migrant workers are particularly at risk since they are required to work at night, which increases their risk of being bitten by Anopheles mosquitoes – the malaria vectors. These populations are also less likely to seek care given language barriers as well as their often limited knowledge of the Thai health system. Given that migrant workers from Burma can freely cross back and forth between Ranong (in Thailand) and Kawthaung township (in Burma), this has implications for malaria transmission as they also transport malaria parasites, which can re-infect populations in Burma.
To provide better access to malaria services for both local residents and for migrants in Ranong Province, the President's Malaria Initiative (PMI) supported provincial and district health offices to expand malaria service outlets at the community level. With PMI's support, new Malaria Posts were established and, at existing health facilities, malaria services were integrated together with primary health care. Sign posts along roads direct patients to the service site, where a trained malaria worker provides malaria diagnosis using rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) and treatment with artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs) for positive cases. Malaria workers reinforce the importance of taking the entire three-day treatment to their clients using information, education, communication materials written in both Thai and Burmese. Patients also receive a patient treatment card in Thai and Burmese, which they can show to other health providers they visit either in Thailand or Burma.
Malaria Posts are located in a malaria worker's home, strategically located in endemic villages near border crossings so that migrants can easily stop by for malaria diagnosis and treatment. PMI-supported staff from Kawthaung (Burma) have trained health volunteers among the migrant population to provide malaria education, distribute long-lasting insecticide-treated mosquito nets (ITNs), help bring migrants with fever in for testing and assist with follow-up visits to those migrants who test positive for malaria. As health services are still being developed in Burma, events have been held to extend malaria services for families and rubber plantation workers on the Burmese side of the border (e.g., long-lasting ITN distributions and malaria diagnostic testing). During the past year, 1,420 local Thai residents and migrants have been tested for malaria, and the 34 patients who tested positive were treated with ACTs according to Thailand's national treatment guidelines.

My Plans for Avoiding the Terror of Short Term Memory Loss
My mother has severe short term memory loss. As her caregiver, I have found that her short term memory impairment has many adverse consequences. My experience with my mother has made me concerned about how I could avoid the horrors that come with short term memory loss when it inevitably hits me in the future.
While I cannot prevent short term memory loss, I do believe that I can mitigate the confusion and anxiety that comes with not being able to mentally track my daily activities. My solution is a simple technological memory prosthesis – a "wearable" calendar. This article describes my idea and how I am implementing it.
