Purpose: :
To report our experiences of using topical dorzolamide (Trusopt®) in patients with X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS), and to correlate this with genotypic data.
Methods: :
We carried out a retrospective evaluation of 4 patients (7 eyes) with XLRS, treated with topical dorzolamide. All patients had macular schisis at baseline. Best-corrected visual acuity (VA) and central macular thickness (CMT) from optical coherence tomography (OCT) were recorded at baseline and each follow-up visit. Snellen VA was converted to logMAR VA for analysis. We analysed the change in VA and CMT over the follow-up period. Each patient also had genetic analysis for mutations in the retinoschisis gene (RS-1).
Results: :
The mean age was 14.7(±11.2) years, and mean duration of follow-up was 293(±172) days. The mean logMAR VA at baseline was 0.30(±0.24), compared to 0.33(±0.21) at last follow-up (p=0.58). The mean CMT at baseline was 352(±119) microns, compared to 318(±127) at last follow-up (p=0.08). 5 out of 7 eyes demonstrated a mean reduction in CMT for the duration of treatment. 1 eye showed a clinically significant reduction (293 to 212 microns), but with no clinically significant improvement in VA. This patient happened to be the only adult in our case series. Only 1 eye demonstrated a significant clinical improvement in VA (0.52 to 0.30 logMAR equivalent). 1 patient stopped treatment early in one eye since the VA worsened; otherwise there were no adverse events. All 4 patients had a mutation in the RS-1 gene; 2 had a SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) in exon 6, 1 had a duplication in the same region, and the 4th had 2 SNPs in the region predicted to affect splicing. 2 eyes of patients with single SNPs appeared to respond somewhat better to topical dorzolamide.

New Crestron Zūm Makes It Simple to Design, Set Up, and Manage Lighting Control in Any Space
Setup requires only a few taps on a keypad or iPhone®, and no programming. Easily expandable from a single space to a centrally managed building-wide lighting control solution.
Rockleigh, NJ - March 3, 2017 - Crestron, a global leader in control and automation technology, announced today it is now shipping Zūm (pronounced "ZOOM"), which makes design, setup, and management of lighting control in any space easy, fast, and affordable. All the essential "building block" devices (wireless dimmers, switches, sensors, etc.) needed for dimming and automation are thoughtfully engineered to work together wirelessly. Setup only requires a few taps on a keypad, dimmer, or mobile app. Scaling from standalone systems to centralized building-wide control and network management is literally a snap. The Zūm Network Bridge simply snaps onto the Zūm Load Controller to add remote setup, daylighting, time clock scheduling, temporary overrides, and other advanced capabilities.
Easy to design
With just a few devices, Zūm gives lighting designers everything they need for complete lighting control in almost any space. A single load controller can support up to 32 devices. Each device has a wireless communication range of 150 feet in every direction. Communication hops from one device to the other to create a mesh network of up to 2.25 million square feet. There's no need for interface boxes or exposed antennae hanging from the ceiling. Centralized building-wide lighting control can be deployed using the same devices as standalone systems.
"Setting up standalone lighting control in any space is as easy as "pair and play," said Even Ackmann, Technology Manager, Lighting at Crestron. "With just a few taps, everything just works. Zūm devices are self-aware and communicate with each other to provide intelligent wireless lighting control without any programming or commissioning."
Easy to setup
All Zūm devices offer standard mounting, and consist of: a choice of four Load Controllers (0-10v, relay, plug load, and universal phase), which enable all system devices to communicate with each other; wireless wall box dimmer and keypads; battery-powered keypads, which allows placement anywhere - even on glass or brick; occupancy sensors for automation and data collection, and a daylight sensor. The Network Bridge simply snaps onto the Load Controller already installed in spaces throughout the building to enable remote Bluetooth® setup from the iPhone app. The Network Bridge pairs with the Zūm Hub to communicate wirelessly with traditional Crestron centralized lighting control systems, AV, shades, and HVAC for a complete enterprise solution.
"And building-wide control is just as easy as a standalone system," explains Ackmann. "You use all the same hardware."
Easy to manage
The Zūm Network Bridge enables remote management, including time clock scheduling, executing temporary overrides, daylighting, and building-wide on/off. Direct communication with Zūm Cloud services centralized network management. For example, easily identify all vacant rooms with the lights turned on, and then those lights can all be turned off remotely. Zūm Cloud also provides instant alert notifications for remote support, and room usage data collection and reporting to reduce energy consumption, justify budgets, and drive future planning.

There are many in the BDSM community that say it is. Why? Because those who practice BDSM follow one of two of the following:
What does this have to do with 50 Shades?
The big sticking point with those who view what happened with Ana and Christian is the consensual part of this equation. Consent requires knowledge. One has to know and understand what they are agreeing to before it is really consensual. It's one of the reasons communication is so important in healthy BDSM relationships. Both parties have to be on the same page.
That didn't happen in 50 Shades. Christian presented Ana with what he wanted and then expected her to take it or leave it. Sure she could have asked questions, but given how naive Ana was at the beginning of the story, how would she know what to ask? It's a gray area, which is the problem so many have with it.
Does this take away from the love story? No. I don't think so. But I do think that it does need to be discussed. With the popularity of the books and now the movie, people are getting a glimpse into a lifestyle that is unfamiliar to them. Unfortunately, it's not an altogether accurate portrayal.
Do you think 50 Shades is abusive, why or why not?

Academic: Tahiti Forum Bid Could Trigger Domino Effect
Spur other non-independent territories to try to join
WELLINGTON, New Zealand (Radio New Zealand International, August 3, 2015) – An academic says there could be a domino effect of non-independent territories seeking to join the Pacific Islands Forum if French Polynesia achieves membership.
The French territory, which currently has observer status at the Forum, is looking at increasing its involvement in the leading regional body.
A Forum mission has recently been in Tahiti to assess its membership bid.
The director of Massey University's Pasifika Centre, Malakai Koloamatangi, says while France is reluctant to entertain the idea of its territories becoming independent, it wants to engage more with the region and having Forum membership could help effect this.
"If it works out for the French territories, who knows, American territories might follow suit if it's shown that joining the Forum in a more meaningful way might be more beneficial for them."

Welcome remarks
Wealth and tax in challenging times
The world is facing the perfect storm of rising life expectancies and governments who are short of money.

Investment guru, Noel Whittaker, will address the issues and opportunities this creates for financial advisers and lawyers.
Morning tea

From love to perpetuity – legislative update
Take an in depth look into recent changes in legislation and find out how these amendments will apply in your day to day practice:
A better way? Collaborative Practice in contested estates
Collaborative Practice has been used successfully in family law matters for over 20 years to minimise conflict and reach non-litigated settlements. Succession practitioners are now also looking to Collaborative Practice as an alternative and possibly better way to manage contentious estate matters.
Join our experienced presenters as we discuss the when and how of the Collaborative Practice process and consider where it differs from traditional mediation and compares to the litigation process. You will work through a case study to understand the Collaborative Practice process and assess the benefits for all parties involved - including the lawyers!
Taking on the giants – aged care litigation
Stories of appalling clinical outcomes and alleged avoidable deaths in our aged care facilities fill the nightly news and current affairs bulletins. In a younger demographic, we would expect such incidents to result in negligence claims. Yet aged care litigation is uncommon. Our experienced presenter has run numerous claims against residential aged care facilities in NSW, and will discuss:
Tales from the dark side: de facto and dependency claims after death
The definitions of dependent and de facto spouse vary across the differing pieces of legislation applicable when considering a potential claim in the event of death. These variations can become particularly acute when advising de facto spouses or surviving family members about entitlements and benefits flowing from a claim involving dependency (personal injury), wrongful death, workers compensation, superannuation death benefits or estate administration.
Our presenters will review the circumstances around these types of claims and provide guidance as to what you should be advising your clients. The session will consider:

Elder abuse – they don't teach it at law school!
Confronted by a victim or a perpetrator of elder abuse, lawyers have to face difficult conundrums unique to our practice and which challenge our competence:
"Nothing is certain but death and taxes"
Benjamin Franklin said it way back in 1789 and the famous quote still rings true today. With these certainties colliding in succession lawyers' daily practice, it's important to ensure you are up to date on all things tax, when advising a legal personal representative. This session will cover:
Would you like a lawsuit with that?
What is your ethical duty when multiple parties are involved in instructing you? This session will consider several common scenarios and offer guidance to help you avoid a conflict of interest and make sure you aren't served up a cold side order of a lawsuit with your instructions.

Cineca of Dreamin N Details, Jenny of Crossing the Bugger-Dixon Line, Aimee of Project:Aimee, Mariah of Giggles Galore, Mayra of In Flight, Tara the Shindig Diva and Dort of Life is Sweet in Michigan....these are all amazing women! They are creative, talented, inspiring and fun to get to know!
In our private "pig pen", I've enjoyed laughs with these great ladies. But they have also been the people I have turned to share my fears with when I began to grow my business...when I got completely overwhelmed and struggled to figure out how to be a wife, mom and business owner. When I thought I was drowning...they threw me a lifeline of supportive advice and shared experiences. In short, I learned that they were real people behind their successful businesses and blogs. They made me feel so much better about myself when I learned that they struggled with some of the same issues too. Being a part of the crew makes me feel like I am part of this special club, this fun band of party sisters!! Before the year is over, I hope to finally meet them all in person for what I'm sure is going to be one HECK OF A PARTY!!! Love you ALL ladies!!

Karaoke Competition VII
Get Ready, Set, GOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Finally! The next karaoke competition is out! Time to make some people's life miserable while trying to record!
What the whole thing is about short version: gather a couple of songs that other people sing and broadcast it over shoutcast so others can listen and vote for their favorite. And of course, torrent it for those who missed the broadcast. You don't have to be a forum member to participate; any one can as long as they follow the rules. This is a karaoke competition: we want to listen to your voice, not your "skills" on how good you can make a song with special effects (if you don't know what karaoke means, look it up).
The rules are almost the same as last time, but to refresh our memories, here they are.
-Anime OP/ED, character Songs, Game songs are allowed as well. If you're not sure, ask me first.
-Please use the karaoke versions. If you can't find it but know that it exists, let me know and we'll see what it can be done. If there are no karaoke version available and you still want to do that song, then either strip the vocals or sing over the song. NOTE: Your voice HAS TO BE louder than the song itself for obvious reasons.
-Full-length songs only. *new*
-Song has to be recorded in one take. Meaning, no cut and paste!! *new*
-The final product can be in mp3, ogg, or wav. Just make sure the quality is somewhat decent so we can hear your voice.
-The song doesn't have to be in japanese. If an english version of that song exists, you can sing that one. As far as I know, there are songs in latin, korean, english, russian, italian, spanish, german, and many others. So you're not limited to japanese only.
-NO EFFECTS OF ANY KIND. Meaning, no echo, double-voice, harmonies, pitch-tweaking, no special effects of any kind. Unless there are two melody lines (or the melody is more like a harmony), don't even try it. In fact, ask me first before trying.
-This time, I will allow songs that are not in their original pitch. Just let me know to what key it was changed to when you submit your entry.
-Only 1 entry per contestant. You may change your entry to something else if you find a better song/recording until the deadline.
-Submit your entries on http://karacom.animesuki.info. If there are problems with the site, let me know.
-DEADLINE: April 21st, 2007 Midnight EST. (I think by know everywhere where they practice summer time has their clocks set, so hopefully we don't have to deal with that...)
Broadcast date and time will be announced as the deadline approaches.
And of course, there will be prizes for the best entries and so on (yes, I actually mail stuff; just ask the previous winners). Depending on how many enter this time, judging/broadcasting/prizes will change significantly.
If you have any questions, you can reach me through pm, irc (email@example.com), AIM (kcl822), or email
(email@example.com). Happy singing~
Shoutcast info!
For the high-quality (somewhat) one: 128kbps
For those who have no bandwidth: 48kbps
Yay~ It's karacomp season again~ :D
*wonders if this is going to follow a path similar to Final Fantasy* :p :heh:
I won't flee that time :o
April 21st... Hope I can make it.
I have one more day to record. Crap... >.<
not March, else we'd've had a heart attack :)
Hoorah! Thanks for waiting out 'till april. :p
Not allowed to sing in dorm. Only home for one more day.
yay! this means it's time to narrow down my huge pile of songs and find one i can actually sing!
I've been practising, but not enough. I hope I'll have something good by then.
*wonders what basket meant with the FF reference*:confused:
Good luck @ everyone ^^
@kcl: can we submit non-competing entries as well? (a)
Unfortunately I have to survive my two-week-finals first before I can start recording... >.< I hope I still get a good recording in time. Oh well.
Maybe if I can get a mic and figure out how to use it I'll enter this time. Hmmm.
Hooray! The KaraComp's back! I can't wait to hear everyone again ^.^
So sure, why not. Just don't overdo it. Which means... 2 should be enough? Or 3? Hum... guess it depends on how many sends non-competing entries... I hate math.
But okay, thanks :)
Yay yay, another karacomp~~~ hopefully I can do better than 37th this time!
Does anyone like Makoto Shinkai? (The Place Promised in our Early Days, 5cm) I purchased the single that's featured in his latest game work (ef), with the intention of doing the theme song for this event. Unfortunately, I sound beyond terrible, as the song is quite difficult and is way out of my vocal range. However, I know there is a powerful female singer out there who could perform this superbly. Don't have a song yet and want a challenge? PM me and give this a try! (Edit: Someone has taken it! Who? Wait and see!)

*wonders what basket meant with the FF reference*
FF7 was the most influential game in the series.
I have a question on mixing that maybe someone can help me with...
For some reason I can only get my mic to record mono. It was a pretty expensive mic, so that doesn't make sense to me. But I've given up trying to figure it out, so now I'd like to know what I can do as far as mixing to make it sound stereo. I know I can duplicate the track and change the pan settings to go out of opposite speakers, but it still doesn't sound quite right. -_-
In the Sound control panel, there should be an option for how many channels the microphone should use. I think that could be it ^^;;;
Alternately, check the recording settings in whichever program you're using (maybe someone can help if you tell them what program it is).
I'll assume you're using Audacity, just because:
Edit Menu, Preferences
Audio I/O tab
Channels: 1 (Mono)
Usually it's the recording program settings.
And... I'm probably not singing... unless I can stop breaking windows.
Only few microphones (often used for video cameras), have true stereo capability (even expensivve ones are often mono-mics, because a single point stereo mic usually cannot provide a good stereo recording... a good stereo recording needs some distance between two recording devices - mics). I suppose the best you can get out of it, is replicated mono (2 channel mono = stereo). Three things are necessary for true stereo: a) the soundcard (or other inputdevice) has to accept stereo (not every soundcard has stereo microphone support) b) the microphone has to support stereo (or you have to use 2, which is the best way to get true stereo) c) settings in the recording software have to be set right.

FrostFrench's Bou-Tea-Que
IF you happen to be in the Islington vicinity be sure to stop off at FrostFrench's newly opened tea boutique. The label has joined forces with Lipton Infusions to create an exclusive tea installation situated in the FrostFrench flagship store in Islington.
"I am really excited to be involved in such a unique project," said the store's co-founder Sadie Frost. "I'm a huge fan of herbal tea, I find it uplifting and it really reflects my lifestyle, I would call myself 'tea total'. I think the installation is a fantastic way for the new generation to shop, indulging in tea whilst picking out a hot new outfit - that sounds like retail heaven to me!"
Shoppers are invited to try, for free, a range of teas whilst they browse the store. The installation forms part of Sadie Frost and Jemima French's Drink Gorgeous campaign which sees the designer duo create a range of Infusions inspired glassware.
"We have drawn inspiration from the Lipton Infusion lips, which is such a great visual," said French, "and have created lip stained props throughout the store that just look gorgeous."

The Keth Memorial Golf Course has been completely redesigned
The project has been led by architect Todd Clark
The course will form part of the Mules National Golf Club
A new island green has been introduced on the eighteenth hole
A redesign of the University of Central Missouri's Keth Memorial Golf Course has reached completion.
GCA reported earlier this year that golf course architect Todd Clark of CE Golf Design had been selected to lead the project, which saw a total rebuild of the course.
Located in Warrensburg, Missouri, the project saw radical alterations to the course's layout, tees, fairways and greens.
Keth Memorial now features zoysia fairways and tees, and bentgrass has also been introduced to the course's greens. A new island green was also added to the course's eighteenth hole.
Further elements of the project included the introduction of a new irrigation system and improvements to the course's cart paths.

Amber Asylum - Looking Glass / Poppies 7"EP 1996
Amber Asylum - Looking Glass / Poppies 7" Picture EP 1996
1) Looking Glass
2) Poppies
More non-metal music from the US of A. This 1996 EP by Amber Asylum is not dark dungeon synth by one man and his synthesizer, however, this is pure ambient/neoclassical music. Ripped clumsily from a tape I'm afraid, but that was dubbed directly from a vinyl I think, so the quality is ok. Included are someone's scans of the picture disc, which I "borrowed" from Discogs. Thanks, someone!
Two tracks of ethereal, atmospheric and tranquil neoclassical ambient with female voice. Audible vinyl crackling included for your authentic listening pleasure. Both tracks were included on their second album "The Natural Philosophy of Love" as re-recorded versions if I'm correct. Buy it and confirm for yourself if you liked this EP. Recommended if you need a break from relentless metallic assault, enjoy ambient or feel adventurous.

I like this. The atmosphere is painfully lonely, dreary victorian madness. It sounds like a musical interpretation of The Yellow Wallpaper.

I listened to a bit of "Frozen in Amber," and liked it, however it seems like music you need to be in a certain kind of mood to enjoy, and that kind of mood comes somewhat rarely for me. I will have to dabble into their other works and give them more time though. I think it would be easier to digest in small doses, like this EP. Also I'm just a sucker for Alice imagery.

I recall similar feeling listening to that one. I think I liked the second album better as a whole. It includes versions of these tracks as well.

The Daily Star
Tuesday 3 March 2009
By Michael Glackin
Gordon Brown's government is in its death throes, propelled there by a recession, rising unemployment and a succession of revelations highlighting ministerial sleaze. The odds on Brown being prime minister after an election, which he must call before May 2010, are long indeed.
The latest opinion polls reveal the government is trailing the opposition Conservative Party by 16 points and is now just three points ahead of the much smaller Liberal Democrats.
So what can the Middle East expect from a future Conservative government?
Speaking to me earlier this month David Lidington, the Conservative shadow minister for foreign affairs and the party's Middle East spokesperson, outlined what the region could expect from a Conservative government, and made it clear that lofty ideals such as democracy will no longer be the yardstick for measuring political progress in the region.
"The experience of Iraq and Afghanistan has given us a more sober assessment about how difficult it is to introduce political reform," Lidington told me. "I think we've learned that it is very difficult to impose democracy by force, particularly by foreign force, and that democracy in terms of votes and competing political parties is not enough."
Lidington said a Conservative government would remain "very interested" in human rights and democratic reform, but it is clear that stability, not democracy, will be the guiding principle of Conservative Middle East policy. "We are not starry eyed about the ability of Britain or even a country as powerful as the United States simply to snap its fingers and impose such a system on places with their own cultures and histories," he explained. "I would hope that we will see the development of democratic and plural institutions in the Middle East in different countries, but in each country it will have to be in a fashion that takes account of the particular history and culture of that nation."
On one level this "more sober assessment" is a reflection of the policy shift in the corridors of power of Washington and London. But this sort of realpolitik in Middle East affairs has never been far from the surface of Conservative policy. When the American and British government, along with France, cold shouldered Syria in the wake of the 2005 assassination of the former Lebanese prime minister, Rafik Hariri, the Conservative Party continued to talk to President Bashar Assad's regime.
Lidington has long believed Western attempts to isolate Syria have failed. Britain and France have already undergone a Damascene conversion and the obvious desire of US President Barack Obama to bury the hatchet that his predecessor waved over Assad's head is the latest vindication of his party's policy of maintaining a dialogue with Damascus.
But you get nothing for nothing in international diplomacy, and as the West rushes to bring Syria in from the cold, many people in the Middle East, particularly the Lebanese, wonder what price will be paid for this rapprochement? Many wonder whether the Hariri Tribunal, which begins operating this week but will not hear testimony before next year, might now grind to a halt as Syria's international rehabilitation gathers pace.
No says Lidington. "We haven't moved from our position supporting the Hariri Tribunal. But, we do take the view that you need to talk to governments even when you have the most profound differences with them. I certainly take the view that efforts to isolate a government are rarely effective and probably breed greater risk of misunderstanding. That doesn't mean you take on trust everything that another government says to you, you have to sup with long spoons."
But why stop at Damascus? If you can use a long spoon to sup with a regime that the UN has implicated in a terror attack on another state then why not use it to sup with Hamas, or Hizbullah? Both groups have successfully contested elections that were more open and democratic than those won by Assad and the Baath Party in Syria. Both groups are also crucial to any hopes of stability in the region. Do they not fall into the "more sober assessment" category?
Lidington agrees both groups are central to creating a stable Middle East, but insists the United Kingdom must distinguish between the governments of a sovereign nation, in this case Assad and Syria, and a group which "openly advocates violence."
"I would accept that Hamas has electoral support and it does represent a significant strand of Palestinian opinion," he said. "But I think that if we are going to deal with it as a party to Middle East diplomacy that can only be on the basis that it has committed itself to being a political movement rather than a movement based on violence."
Lidington concedes his party has what he calls "channels of communication" with Hamas through some of its backbench MPs and contacts in various NGOs, but insists no direct talks will take place until Hamas renounces violence for good and formally recognizes Israel.
Despite this there is strong support within the Conservative Party for direct talks with Hamas. Former Conservative ministers Michael Ancram and Chris Patten, both of whom were involved in the Northern Ireland peace process, recently called for the scrapping of preconditions on talks with Hamas, insisting the group should only be required to halt its violence, not renounce it entirely, to join peace negotiations.
Bearing in mind the Conservatives' willingness to cock a snoot at both the US and UK government over Syria, it doesn't take a great leap of imagination to see a situation where a Conservative government would be prepared to break bread with Hamas or indeed Hizbullah if it felt it was in the UK's wider interests. While describing Hizbullah as a terror group on the one hand, Lidington also insists it is "an authentic movement," because of its strong electoral support, and as such would have to be part of any Middle East peace settlement.
"You cannot disentangle Hizbullah from broader questions of the Middle East. If you think about prospects of a deal between Israel and Syria over the Golan you can sketch quite easily the territorial demarcation lines; but I cannot see any Israeli government finalizing a deal without some firm assurances concerning the supply of arms to Hizbullah across Syrian territory. When you start getting into that discussion you're immediately talking about the relationship of Hizbullah to Iran as well. These are all part of a broader regional picture."
Whether you see the Conservative Party's "more sober assessment" of the region's future as a long overdue correction or a contradictory and indeed dangerous policy, one thing is certain: The West now appears to view the idea of Middle East democracy with the same disdain it once had for Soviet Communism. It is fast becoming the doctrine that can no longer speak its name in this part of the world.

We're having some issues at school that should probably be handled by the union, but we're a young school with a staff of mostly new teachers and Teaching Fellows, who don't know much about their rights. Our union rep is a 3rd year teacher, and our principal is spanking new himself. So things are going badly and the whole staff is upset or on edge, and we're not sure what to do about it. Is it inappropriate for us to write a letter of support for a colleague who we feel is being picked on by the adminstration?
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
I had a lesson go terribly, horribly badly today, and I can't blame the students; I was unprepared and hadn't scaffolded enough, and they were restless and uninterested. I'm a little bit fried by the end of the semester and grading coming up so quickly (!!), and the 10th graders are getting ready for the mock Regents, while the 9th graders are doing utterly uncritical topics and I'm not teaching them next semester. I haven't been able to give the 9th graders my full attention all semester, and I've done them a huge disservice. I think I figured out why I don't like them as much as I liked last year's 9th graders; with those kids I was totally focused on them and their lessons. This year the 9th grade is by far my second priority, or maybe my third, behind being Team Leader (whatever that means).
I know I'm a better teacher than I was last year, but I look forward to the day when I feel confident teaching two curricula at the same time.

* All in all it's a fun place to roam with family and friends or take little kids in nice weather. [Best time to visit July - March]
* Enjoy the history and making of this park, At some of the theme based attractions.
* Shake hands and interact with Imagica characters up close and click photographs with them.
* I see kids like dancing with music around Pop Jets, the fountain zone with jets of water shooting out.
* Some outdoor rides wont work while it is raining, and it depends up-to that day.
* If it is high temperature during noon or monsoon rains, Utilize your time to indoor attractions.
* Currently I don't observe any wi-fi facility inside the park. But who cares, if you are coming to enjoy the day.
This brings back to memory my trip to Universal Studios in Los Angles. These views captured during the day using my latest SLR. It is the ultimate destination for a great time with your family and friends. Thanks to the "Adlabs Entertainment Limited" team for bringing this unique theme park in India and they deserve all applauds. So, what are you waiting for! Get set and ready for lifetime riding experiences. Hope to visit again...

Do you know what makes this more infuriating? The Ohlone College entrance to Mission Peak is always empty on the weekends and has spots for hundreds of visitors. More than enough to accommodate the demand.

Watch Jurgen Klopp 's Liverpool vs West Ham pre-match press conference in full, in video above.
The Reds boss heads into Sunday's 4pm fixture against the Hammers off the back of a Surprising 4-3 defeat to Bourenmouth .
Liverpool were leading last Sunday's game 3-1, only for Eddie Howe's side to stage a remarkable comeback.
Now third in the table and four points behind leaders Chelsea, Klopp is looking to get his side's title challenge back on track.
The first topic of discussion was Joel Matip , who was missing from last week's defeat with a knock.
Matip is set to resist calls from Cameroon to head off to the Africa Cup of Nations in the summer - and Klopp was on hand to explain.
The German then moved on to talk about Liverpool's midweek trip to Barcelona - and explained it as a good way of the players staying together following a defeat.
Questions were asked on Loris Karius, whose mistake allowed Nathan Ake in to score Bournemouth's winning goal, but Klopp defended his first choice keeper.
Team news came next, and with it bad news for Daniel Sturridge.
Finally, Klopp looked ahead to West ham and bouncing back.

Astonishing phone footage showing a 12-year-old boy being attacked by a 39-year-old has gone viral and led to the older man's arrest.
Alex Anderson suffered cuts, bruises and a twisted ankle as well as having his mobile phone smashed during the incident.
His assailant William Conte has since been charged with harassment and criminal mischief.
Events unfolded after young Alex recorded a woman in a car who he says was taking pictures of him and a friend while they rode bikes near their home in Long Island, New York.
He says he recorded the woman's license plate and her face. "I'm like, 'Why are you recording us? What's your problem?'" he told Connecticut's News 12 channel.
He can also be heard calling the woman a "lowlife". It is not clear if the two know each other. But it was during the exchange that her husband, Conte, came running down the street to intervene.
In the video, he can be seen levelling Alex before throwing the phone into the street. He then appears to realise he is himself being recorded - by Alex's friend - and starts to approach the second boy before the video ends.
After seeing the footage, Alex's father Christian Anderson called the incident "absurd".
A somewhat burly individual himself, he said: "Come mess with somebody your own size. Don't pick on a 12-year-old."
And he added that it was he who had previously told his son to video anyone he believed to be following him.
He said: "If anybody is ever following you, videoing you, taking pictures of you, you do the same thing back. Because I don't know if my son is going to get kidnapped."

Daring to do what you love. The story of your future begins now.
How does a labour of love become a rewarding business?
Listen to the inner workings of your heart and you'll find that everything from collecting handkerchiefs to baking cookies, from mixing perfumes to tending sheep, can be a profitable business.
If you have a vision, don't hold back. But start small, and don't spend on all those fancy things people think you must have, Hard work and ambition are the key elements - and you re-investing your profits.
Artists - If you're artistic, there are various avenues to investigate. Use your art and what you love doing to generate an income. Design birthday and Christmas cards, gift wrap, albums, invitations, gift bags, gift boxes and coordinating tissues and cards, using your own sketches or paintings. At first it might only be friends who might covet your creations, but by canvassing book stores and gift shops, showcasing your work on POD sites (print on demand) like RedBubble, and there are many others, it won't be long before you're inundated with orders and sales! You can also expose your wares on your own blog or website and take orders yourself.
Gardeners - If you like gardening, doing what you love by setting up a herb garden opens the door to many opportunities. Herbal wreaths, aromatic vine baskets, bunches, sachets and herbal oils for the bath and skin are but a few ideas, enjoy great popularity and are always in demand. Expect to spend hours in the garden, but it's time that you will find therapeutic, because you will have plenty of time to think of innovative ways to use your herbs. Selling fresh Lavender or dried bunches, bound with a satin ribbon or raffia, for gifts or arrangements can give your income a great boost. Also use other fragrant plants such as roses Thyme and Rosemary. The list is endless as to what you can create with herbs.
Animal lovers - Here's an inspirational story of how one woman's love for animals turned into an unexpected successful business:
"It's taken a lifetime of searching and searching, but I finally found it," says Megan, who lives in the quiet of British Columbia with ten sheep, 20 lambs, a handful of hens and Annie the rabbit. She runs The Counting Sheep Inn, but not so long ago she was a lawyer, driving a luxury car and wondering why nothing made her happy. "When I was a girl, I taped a real estate ad for acreage to my bed and imagined myself running through the pastures in a long dress," she says. "somehow I got waylaid."
Megan took a dramatic approach to rer-outing herself. She quit her job, moved to a log cabin on a family member's rural property and apprenticed herself to a shepherd. "Being out in the middle of nowhere is the best meditation," she says. As she breathed away years of stress, she began scheming to make her beloved flock "pay their own way". She decided to cash in her retirement fund and open a three-suite bed-and-breakfast with a gift shop full of sweaters, knitted (in her spare time) from homegrown Merino wool.
Gradually word has spread and city folk come to feed the lambs, collect eggs for their breakfast, or sit by the fire for a private knitting lesson.
Clever Ways with Fabrics - If you have a passion for fabrics and sewing, creating unique one-of-a-kind items will have the orders flowing in. A large fringed linen guest towel can serve double duty as dresser scarf, just hung on the door of an armoire to soften al that wood, or thrown over a chair or a daybed.
Cotton night-shirts, lightly striped with a demure trim of lace, will have family and friends, and eventually customers, in total awe and will enjoy great popularity as gifts as well as for personal use.
Lace-trimmed cotton "medici" damask on the windows can double as shower curtains, letting the curtain panels puddle in folds on the floor. That way, it doesn't matter where a customer decides to use it - they'll fit.
Unique and special bed linen is always in great demand and there is nothing more blissful than sliding in between crisp sheets and relaxing on satiny pillows. Let your fabrics swap places - curtains can become bed hangings and lacy sheets can become curtains or table covers. Looking at fabrics with a fresh eye will pay off big dividends.
The Historian - If you're passionate about history, why not design note or birthday cards on an historical theme. Libraries, flea markets and the internet are great sources for finding images from the 1800's to the 1930's, using text that tells all about bees, or birds, how to read the tracks of wild animals in the snow, historical battles or inventions.

Renting retail space
In the current economy, you can negotiate your way into any number of leases or purchase arrangements now that the market is flooded with vacant space. Better yet, use that extra guest room for a humble office that allows you at least to launch the concept, then gradually build it into a larger success.
Until you have some sort of steady income, don't consider employees. But currently there's an immense amount of unemployed talent out there. These individuals would be thrilled to be part of a promising start-up. You couldn't get that kind of motivation and inspiration at an affordable price in the employment market three years ago. Take advantage of it now.
Office Furniture
Be innovative as far as office furniture is concerned - scour flea markets and second-hand shops or auctions, even your own house, where you're sure to find the odd table and cabinet or desk that you can utilise. No matter what you do, you'll need some funding, but careful calculations can give you the jump-start to begin with a relatively low monetary commitment.
A unique idea is still a unique idea. The message here is that we still need to do things, buy things and go places, economy or no economy. There's no reason you can't be the best solution for the people who need it.
Don't give up on your dreams.
I'm never overwhelmed or under it either; just nicely whelmed. I'm OK. Nothing spectacular but sometimes special. I look in the mirror and see this medium average person. A little tired, a little sad, but not falling apart.

France said Monday that claims by Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei that a "Zionist cancer" was gnawing into the lives of Islamic nations were "profoundly shocking." "These declarations are profoundly shocking and we firmly condemn them," said a foreign ministry spokeswoman, adding that the remarks "reflect the intolerance of the current leaders of Iran."
"They unfortunately can be added to a long list of hateful declarations by (Iranian President) Mahmoud Ahmadinejad," Christine Fages told reporters. "It is a sad day for the Iranian people, who we know do not share this attitude." Khamenei, who has the final say in all of Iran's national issues, blasted arch-foe Israel, Western powers and foreign media networks in a sermon on Sunday for the Muslim festival of Eid al-Fitr.
The annual Quds (Jerusalem) Day rally held across Iran on Friday, he said, was a "day of loud and clear shouts" against this "deadly cancer of Zionism which is gnawing into the lives of the Islamic nations." His anti-Israel remarks came two days after the Quds Day rally during which President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad had also slammed Israel and repeated his controversial belief that the Holocaust was a "myth".

Sportime Is a Hive of Activity
The Sportime Arena in Amagansett was a hive of activity Saturday morning as about a dozen pickleballers were playing that bang-bang game at the rear of the building, behind a scrim, while more than 30 girls were taking part in lacrosse clinics put on by Elizabeth and Lina Bistrian, cousins who have been East Hampton High School field hockey and lacrosse teammates these past four years.
Pickleball — Sportime has two courts, open for play to the public on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday mornings — is a pared-down paddle cousin to tennis, though one needn't be a tennis player, or old, to enjoy it. It is said to be popular with all ages.
Points are generally decided in battles at the net (though one is forbidden when volleying to step within a seven-foot no-volley zone, commonly known as "the kitchen"). The scoring is a bit puzzling at first, though there are a number of experienced players at Sportime ready and willing to serve as guides to the perplexed.
A pickleball membership through mid-June costs $125. The drop-in fee is $15.
Back to girls lacrosse, the Bistrians in a letter not long ago to "fellow community members" said they'd been inspired to put on field hockey and lacrosse clinics "because we've seen that the number of students participating in these sports at the high school level has declined dramatically. . . . Our aim is to see that every girl in our community is given the opportunity to play, compete, and enjoy field hockey and lacrosse through equal access to all the necessary equipment and instruction."
The Bonac seniors were especially interested in spreading the word in the Latino community here, and thus asked Claudia Quintana, a teacher and member of the Amagansett School Board, if she would translate their letter into Spanish, which she did. Jennifer Fowkes of the Bonac Booster Club, who has been collecting earmarked donations, had also been very helpful, Lina said, as, of course, Sportime had been too.
Sue De Lara and Tyler Jarvis saw to it that Sportime donated its space, Robyn Bramoff Mott, a field hockey and lacrosse (and girls basketball) coach at East Hampton High School, has volunteered her time, and equipment swaps and donations of equipment have enabled everyone to be outfitted.
The low-cost lacrosse clinics (the drop-in fee is $10), which the Bistrians, with some of their teammates, oversee, have attracted girls spanning kindergarten through the eighth grade.
"There was our group who always played, but we were seeing the numbers of younger players coming up dwindle," Lina said in answer to a question. "In field hockey and lacrosse. That's why we did this. Long Island is known for lacrosse, but not so many know about it on the East End."
Moreover, she said, travel time to practice and play with travel teams up the Island — the Bistrians have played lacrosse for Team Elevate, based in Syosset — could be daunting, which is why she and Elizabeth would be happy, she said, if their clinics were to lead to the formation of a Police Athletic League girls lacrosse team here in the near future.
Their hope too is that community spirit here can continue to be nurtured generationally. "We watched our cousins play and cheered them on as we were growing up, and then it came to be our turn. We'd like to continue that — it's the kind of thing that keeps a community together."
"I'm letting the girls do it," Coach Mott, whose 4-year-old daughter, Teagan, was one of the clinic-takers, said. "It was the same with the [Nov. 11 to Dec. 16] field hockey clinics. It's exciting."

Vietnam part 1: Ho Chi Minh City and the Mekong Delta
Arriving in Ho Chi Minh from the quiet beaches of Otres in Cambodia caused a shock to our systems, and maybe one we needed. We'd been in holiday mode on the beach, and in Ho Chi Minh couldn't be further from relaxation and peacefulness…
We took the bus from the airport and hoped it would stop close to our hostel, and it was close enough, but the journey with our huge backpacks in the humidity of the night and the thousands of a motorbikes and scooters was a little overwhelming.
What's more, after walking around HCMC's tiny alleyways for around 15 minutes we realised we were a little lost, and eventually found our tiny little hostel T&T located on an even smaller alley tucked away from the crowds.
Staying in District 1, the tourist centre of the city, we were surrounded by bars, restaurants and street food, and opted for a Pho from Pho King on the first night by chance – which happened to be the best Pho we've had so far in Vietnam.
Every day in the city was hectic, as we navigated the streets on independence day… and tucked in and out of bars for a bottle of Saigon, Pho and spring rolls.
We visited the War Remnants Museum, which depicted the catastrophic events that took place before, during and after the Vietnam War and came away with a profound sadness, but also a determination for peace.
We had an even stronger feeling at the Chu Chi tunnels, particularly after travelling for just 20 metres through one of the tunnels and finding paranoia and claustrophobia take over our bodies very quickly. They'd even enlarged the tunnels for us – we couldn't comprehend living like this for three years and left feeling completely overawed.
We left the hustle and bustle of the city to see the surrounding Mekong Delta region on an "off-the-beaten-track" tour with Innoviet. Our guide, Tung, was extremely informative and we had some great conversation with him and our fellow travellers, a lovely Dutch couple.
The tour really was away from the crowds of tourists you get in the city, and we travelled by boat to villages on small islands all along the Mekong. Inspired by Sue Perkins, we felt closer to nature and to the people, with homecooked meals (of which we sometimes got to help cook) at our homestays and lots of great conversations with local people.
On our second day we had breakfast at the floating market, and were entirely enamoured by the tenacity of one particular coffee seller, who rammed her boat into ours to make a sale. What a woman. She steered using her legs in order to multi-task and sadly in order to maximise the dwindling numbers of customers now visiting the market.
We finished the day with a 2 hour cycle around a village followed by the most delicious home-cooked meal of curries, fish, fried tofu, greens and so much more, as well as the infamous local "happy juice". We definitely finished the tour feeling altogether happier.

All Apple fans are very excited about the launch of the iPhone X , and not only for its features, such as its new A11 Bionic chip, Face ID, or, especially, its new design . In particular, we are encouraged because it can mean a very important change for all your products in the not too distant future. Both its features and its renewed appearance could give life to the company's new products.
In this case, it is not a bad decision, precisely, if guided by the data would probably do exactly the same. Of course, in some cases it could be something strange, but there are many lines of products that need a real change, as the iPhone X has meant for all users of the smartphone to a device that has dispensed with things that so far We considered fundamental. And now, it's the turn of the iPad .
The innovative technology that gave rise to the iPhone X is on its way to the iPad
According to the information provided by Bloomberg , the next iPad could have several features of the latest iPhone. Some of these new features would be, for example, the new facial recognition system Faceid , the ability to apply the portrait mode with the front, among many others.
Of course, to all this great amount of novelties would be added one more, a new design designed to take advantage of each and every one of the pieces of hardware that will make up each new iPad. The only thing I hope is that Apple can comply decently with a high demand, and not as it is doing these days with its new phone star.
And you, what would you add to the new iPad?

Kenneth Yarus whisks a palette knife through a dollop of slate blue paint, loading the tool and applying a careful stroke to a freshly oiled canvas. The work in progress depicts a dramatically-lit scene at Atsina Lake in Glacier National Park, distinguished by a trio of waterfalls, each set in a different plane within the scene. He takes a closer look at his handiwork and opts to mix a dab of black into the paint, blending the mixture closer to that perfect tone.
Yarus works quietly alongside friend and fellow artist, Richie Carter, in their shared Kalispell studio space adjacent to Yarus� childhood home. It is very much an artist�s space � paintings of various stages and sizes decorate the walls, tables and even a piano. Balancing out the professional feel are a few playful ornaments � a dartboard (Carter being the superior player), a paper rhino head and a string of still lifes featuring handguns and, in one case, cereal. Yes, it�s certainly a fine artist�s space, but there�s a sense of fun to it too � reflective of its youthful inhabitants.
Although Yarus is 28 � a fledgling in the art world � one wouldn�t know it by the quality of his work. His 3-by-4-foot mountain lake scene, �There Below it All,� sold for $8,000 in September 2017 and he was recently selected as a finalist in the Art Renewal Center Salon contest out of more than 3,500 entries. The prestigious competition, which offers $100,000 in cash prizes, is the latest in a line of accolades that mark Yarus� career. He was the youngest artist chosen for the Western Masters Show in its 40 year history, the youngest member of the Montana Painter�s Alliance and his landscape oil paintings have been exhibited across Montana and in surrounding western states. Yarus� work can be found at four galleries in the region, the most local being Whitefish�s Frame of Reference Fine Art at 235 Central Avenue.
Yarus has been creating since boyhood, when he�d bring himself to tears if his parents didn�t allow him to draw before he went to school. By the time he reached high school age, Yarus made the decision to pursue �the art nerd path� and was encouraged to do so under the tutelage of Flathead High School art teacher Susan Guthrie and his parents, who have since taken on the role of modern day patrons in addition to mom and dad.
�There�s a lot of people who are like, �you�re not going to make it as an artist so why are you even trying?� and that�s a lot of the rhetoric that could have gotten to me if it wasn�t for my family or those really pivotal teachers,� Yarus said.
His art is rooted in realism � staying true to the scene before him � but he also incorporates a few fantastical twists: dramatized lighting, moving a cloud here and there, adding a deer or reshaping a ridge. The goal isn�t necessarily to outdo nature, but to capture the feeling Yarus had when he was in a given location. Many of those settings are in Glacier National Park or the Mission Mountains, and when time and travel permits, the badlands of Utah.
�I�ve always loved being outdoors. I don�t want to paint urban scenes �. I don�t really want to paint people because people kind of annoy me most of the time,� he said, smiling.
While he eschews people as primary subjects, Yarus doesn�t shuck them altogether. He adds them in minimally, as silhouettes, in select works to evoke the feeling of spotting another hiker on the trail and to make the wild landscapes feel just a little bit safer.
�The landscapes around here, they really are dangerous. They�re beautiful, but there�s a power to that beauty that kills people every year,� he said of Glacier. �You�re there in the place of appreciation which is really best shared, so adding the people has always been something I wanted to do.�
In the last few years, Yarus has attacked larger canvases and embraced a shared workspace with Carter. In fact, he credits a good portion of his growth as an artist to being in an environment where constant feedback is available.
�Richie�s talked me out of lots of destroyed paintings. If there�s a problem with something that I can�t figure out, he�d be like, �Oh, that color right there�s a little bit wrong.� And I�ve done it for him a lot,� Yarus said. �In school that�s how it works. [The teacher�s] not like alright everybody, I�m going to talk to you one-on-one in your own little booth and you won�t talk to each other. No � you�re constantly in a place of comparison and communion.�
That spirit of collaboration coupled with a strong work ethic have helped get Yarus where he is today. He tackles his painting career just like any other day job: he shows up, meets deadlines and paints, yes, even when he�s not inspired.
�I was raised by a blue collar family where you just show up and work, so I�m used to that kind of grind and art hasn�t really been too separate from that for me,� Yarus said. �If you really want to make enough money at it, you can�t just paint when you�re inspired.�
In order to delve into art full-time, Yarus resides with his parents � a choice he�s made in part out of necessity but also out of preference.
�I live with my family. For a lot of people its like, �Oh you�re just a loser � a failure to launch.� I don�t see it that way � Michelangelo and those guys worked under families or under a church. They weren�t out there appealing to a capitalist market, � Yarus said. �Multi-generational living, I think, has a lot of really awesome benefits � I bring light to my parents� lives that they otherwise wouldn�t have if I was living alone somewhere else.�
While he hopes to be more financially independent in the future, Yarus is grateful for the creative opportunity that his current situation provides. He can paint what he loves, what he�s good at, without worrying about catering to the market.
�You�re not a professional if you�re just good once. You have to really work at that level of excellence,� Yarus said. �I�d rather do what I love and make little money � and know that I�m making something I�m proud of.�

Lodge Life
Here are some stories from past seasons. For the most up to date pictures and comments visit our FaceBook page.
Reaching the Outside World
Saturday, July 14, 2012
In the beginning was the Telephone. Our telephone, actually - a black wall-mounted rotary dial phone, on a party line, in our lodge kitchen. If a guest needed to call home, if someone was trying to reach a guest, the word came through our kitchen. Someone would call - once it was Pierre Elliott Trudeau! - and I would tell them just wait, then run and find the guest to come and talk. It often seemed most calls came during the dinner hour - probably as it is in your home - and a guest would stand by the phone, connecting with the sounds of dinners being served and dishes washed, in the background. It was a big step when we got a pay phone. One of our guests was a stockbroker - it was a case of worlds colliding as he stood on the porch two or three times a day, checking and trading. And many a bear hunter stood in the spring evening, calling home and trying to ignore mosquitoes and black flies. Now of course we are much more connected. There are enough cell towers in the area that our guests can use their cell phone - if they stand in the right place :) - The final step has been our internet satellite. We've just gotten an upgrade, so don't expect to download movies, but you can definitely stay in touch with home and the rest of the world - if that's your wish. From party-line phone to office on the deck: you can leave the world behind, or stay in touch - the choice is yours!

Fire At Sea - 12 November
A moving portrait of the Mediterranean island of Lampedusa and the humanitarian crisis occurring in the seas around it. Since the early 2000s, Lampedusa, the European territory closest to Libya, has become a prime transit point for immigrants from Africa, the Middle East and Asia wanting to enter Europe.

When Voices Meet – 19 November
When Nelson Mandela was finally released from prison, courageous South African musicians formed a 500-voice, multiracial children's choir. Threatened with bombs and thwarted at every turn, they prevailed and travelled across the country aboard The Peace Train. When Voices Meet documents the trials, tribulations and triumphs of those musician activists and young choir members. They performed together for seven years; never lost touch with one another; and then reunited 20 years later.
Dead Donkeys – 26 November
Farm land is the new gold in the 21st century and one of the most profitable new spots for farming is Ethiopia. In this documentary, discover how the Ethiopian government leases out millions of hectares of allegedly unused land to foreign investors. Sadly, the dream of prosperity has soured and resulted in the most massive forced evictions in modern history and a vicious spiral of violence. Follow the investigation against the foreign land-investments as it exposes their impact on people's lives. In the pursuit of truth, meet investors, development bureaucrats, persecuted journalists, struggling environmentalists and the small farmers who have been kicked out of their land.


text: Ethiopian Mocha Harrar: Although the birthplace of coffee, the harvest was consumed as a food in early times. The beans were roasted, pulverized and mixed with butter to form hard balls to be eaten on journeys. Noted for its winey and delicate fruit notes, Harrars brew up with faint peach-like hints.

Peripheral Neuropathy : What It Is and What You Can Do to Feel Better (Hardcover) (M.D. Janice F.
About this item
Nearly one in fifteen people—that's 20 million people in the United States—suffers from peripheral neuropathy, or nerve damage. Caused by such conditions as diabetes, cancer, vitamin deficiencies, and kidney disease as well as certain drugs and toxins, neuropathy brings numbness, tingling, and burning in the feet, legs, and fingertips. Neuropathy can be more than uncomfortable—it can be disabling: people whose fingertips are numb may find it hard to button clothing and complete other everyday tasks. Neuropathy is often dangerous, as well: people who cannot feel their feet are more likely to stumble and fall, and they may not notice injuries that need medical attention.
Dr. Janice F. Wiesman, a neurologist with twenty years of experience helping people who have neuropathy find relief, shares her special insights into this painful and debilitating condition. With exceptional clarity, Dr. Wiesman begins by outlining the basics of nerve anatomy and function. She explains how peripheral neuropathy is diagnosed and treated, describes neuropathy's disparate causes, and offers readers lifestyle changes that can help keep nerves healthy. A useful glossary defines terms, patient stories offer real-world experiences, and illustrations provide a visual key to the condition. A detailed resources section points the reader to reliable web sites and organizations that offer more help.
Concentrating on the most common types of neuropathy, Dr. Wiesman provides hope, help, and comfort to patients, families, and caregivers.

Wednesday, January 11, 2012
With all that said, I've been feeling just meh. I want to be up and at 'em. I want to feel filled with the positivity and vigor a new year generally ushers in for me.
Currently I just feel more like hunkering down in a pair of flannel pajamas underneath my oh-so-cozy down comforter and only waking up for a spot of tea and some light reading before napping yet again.
With only one more day left of my sick days for the entire school year, that scenario--however lovely it may be--ain't happenin'.
So---I've made NY resolutions. One of them involves writing more in this blog.
*yes, it's a resolution again. quit laughing!*
but more than likely my goals will remain along the lines of dragging my sorry hiney out of bed each morning and functioning at whatever level I can muster throughout the day until I can crawl back under the covers again each night until I am fully recovered from this ick.
Read on, gentle readers. Read on.

Sonavex, Inc. Raises $1 Million to Advance its Ultrasound-based Clot Detection Device
Baltimore, MD (September 14, 2015) – Sonavex, Inc., a privately held, Baltimore-based medical device company spun out of Johns Hopkins announced today that it has raised $1 million to advance development of its ultrasound-based technology to detect potentially catastrophic post-operative clots. The company has received Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grants from the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation, support from
the Technology Development Corporation (TEDCO) and closed a seed round of private financing in August 2015.
The seed round includes support from the Abell Foundation and the Blue Jay Syndicate, among other investors. This raise will drive pre-clinical testing and commercialization of Sonavex's initial product.
Sonavex was founded in 2013 to develop a novel way to harness ultrasound technology to detect clot formation prior to devastating and costly surgical failures across a variety of surgical disciplines. Undetected clots lead to severe morbidity and cost hospitals upwards of $55,000 per instance. Early detection of these clots enables surgeons to intervene prior to a complication. "Earlier detection of post-surgical blood clots has been an unmet clinical need for decades and has the potential to have a major impact on patient outcomes", said Devin Coon, MD, MSE, surgeon and President of Sonavex.
The company has taken a novel approach to this major clinical problem by enabling Doppler ultrasound quantification of blood flow via an implantable tissue marker. For the first time, surgeons will be able to see inside the at-risk vessels and assess critical flow metrics to inform their patient management strategy.
The funding has allowed for Sonavex to expand its team, including a critical new hire, Dr. Xin (Ben) Kang as Director of Research & Development. Dr. Kang, formerly at Siemens, brings 10 years of image processing experience and will collaborate closely with Sonavex co-founder and Johns Hopkins professor Jerry Prince, PhD.
Sonavex's CEO, David Narrow, was selected to present at the Innovation Showcase at AdvaMed 2015 on October 7. The Innovation Showcase features the most promising, innovative, emerging growth MedTech companies.
About Sonavex:
Sonavex, Inc. is a Baltimore-based medical device company spun out of Johns Hopkins. The company is dedicated to providing novel ultrasound solutions to visualize and quantify critical data for improved outcomes and reduces costs in new surgical applications. Sonavex developed EchoSure to detect blood clots after surgery to prevent catastrophic surgical failures. For more information, please visit www.sonavex.com.
