ISTANBUL – Two jailed lawmakers from pro-Kurdish People's Democratic Party (HDP) were released by the courts in the southeastern province of Diyarbakır on April 21.
HDP Diyarbakır deputy Nursel Aydoğan and Meral Danış Beştaş, another lawmaker from the southern province of Adana, are being tried over "terror" charges.
The Diyarbakır Fourth Heavy Penal Court ruled for the release of Aydoğan on condition of judicial control.
The prosecutor is seeking up to 103 years in prison for Aydoğan, who was arrested on Nov. 4, 2016.
The court subsequently accepted her request for pre-verdict release.
Another lawmaker released hours after Aydoğan was Beştaş, who also participated in the hearing in Diyarbakır Eighth Heavy Penal Court through SEGBİS.
The prosecutor seeks up to 23 years of prison sentence for Beştaş over several charges, including "being a member of an armed terrorist organization" and "inciting people to commit crimes."
In the hearing, Beştaş, who was arrested on Jan. 30, denied all charges against her and said that some 33 days out of the 81 she spent in Silivri Prison were under isolation.
"It's unlawful for me to sit in the suspect's chair as a lawmaker. It's a political operation to arrest our party's members. These events constitute a situation that may create serious problems in the international law in the following periods. We are even 800 years behind Magna Carta law. Turkey doesn't deserve this," Beştaş told the court, as she also demanded her release.
The court accepted her release demand on condition of judicial control and a ban on traveling abroad.
Some 12 lawmakers from the HDP, including its co-chairs Selahattin Demirtaş and Figen Yüksekdağ, face hundreds of years in jail for their opposition to Turkish dictator Tayyip Erdogan.

I'll go straight to the point.
Mobile payments are among the hottest industries today.
The global mobile payment revenues will top $780 billion by the end of 2017.
Also, consider this: in 2015, 39% of all mobile users in the US had made at least one mobile payment.
Of course, when there is a steady flow of mobile payment transactions, there should be a payment method and a secure storage for it.
That is a mobile wallet.
What is a Mobile Wallet and Why You Should Develop One
Up to date, there's no precise definition of what a "mobile wallet" is in the first place.
In the US alone, over 200 banks, retailers, and other service providers claim to offer a some sorts of "mobile wallet service".
But here's one broad definition of a mobile wallet we'll be using in this post
A mobile wallet is an app that allows linking and storing different types of payment methods like credit/debit cards or digital currencies (e.g. bitcoin), along with additional stuff like loyalty cards, coupon codes etc. The app may feature additional functionality as well.
When you approach mobile wallet application development, you should first decide whether you plan to offer just one feature e.g. storing and using loyalty cards/coupons. Or build a more advanced custom solution that would also allow users to pay for goods, conduct P2P payments and so on.
Let me help you pin down the right answer.
Conditionally all mobile wallets can be grouped into three categories:
A retailer app with a mobile wallet capacity, which allows users to store and redeem coupons, loyalty cards, and bonuses. It can come as a standalone solution or as part of your branded online shopping app. The development costs would be in $25k-$65k range.
A mobile wallet app developed specifically for cardholders of a certain FI (e.g. bank, credit card issuer). This option would be slightly cheaper – between $20k-$45k
An intermediary mobile wallet and online payment app that allows users to store and use a variety of cards. Think PayPal, Apple Pay, Android Pay or Samsung Pay. The development price tag goes up here and expect to cash between $70K-$250K.
To get an accurate cost estimate, get in touch with our team directly!
When you create an app project brief for the developers, clearly outline the type of mobile solution you are interested in. You should realize that mobile wallet app development costs will vary based on your indication.
Now, let's dive deeper into mobile wallet development.
What Kind of Payments Do I Plan To Support?
Ok, so you know the type of app you want to build.
Now let's see what kind of transactions it could handle and how to design the ultimate UX based on users needs.
The good news is that modern smartphones have plenty of inbuilt features that mobile wallet app developers can take advantage of. For instance:
- Camera
- Bluetooth
- GPS modules for determining location
- Fingerprint scanning for authentication
- Real-time connectivity to the users FI through Wi-Fi/cellular data.
Now, let's take a look at the common use mobile wallet use cases:
- Online commerce payments – when users choose to pay online for goods/services and are given a receipt.
- Mobile P2P money transfers – for instance, the kind of payments Venmo app offers. They reported sending over $1 billion in January 2016 alone. ClearXchange (a joint venture by major US banks) also offers instant money transfers from a linked user's bank account to another one.
- Point of Sale (POS) payments occurring at the storefront, where consumers can use mobile/contactless technologies to finalize the operation.
Let's focus on POS payments in terms of mWallet app development.
There are four ways to enable POS mobile wallet payments:
- NFC (near field communication)
- Bluetooth and iBeacon technology
- QR codes
- Payment App
Near field communication protocol enables secure, contactless payments between an NFC-enabled smartphone and a transmitter attached to a POS device. The cardholder has their card stored in a digital form in their mobile wallet on the device or in the cloud using the Host Card Emulation (HCE) technology, which was largely adopted by Google for Android devices.
When the payment occurs, the consumer's payment information is automatically retrieved from their gadget and transmitted via NFC to the payment terminal. If the app supports HCE, users should be connected to the Internet to finalize the transaction. This is not required if the data is stored on the device.
If you plan to create a mobile app for iOS, mind that iPhone 6 has become the first Apple device to have an inbuilt NFC chip and supporting HCE.
However, unlike Android, the company mentioned that this chip will only be used for one technology – Apple Pay.
Bottom line: If you choose to develop a mobile app for Android, taking advantage of the NFC and HCE technology is among the best options. Building an iOS mobile wallet app will require using either EMVCo payment standards and tokenization, or opting for one of the next routes instead:
Bluetooth and iBeacon
The iBeacon technology is another way to transfer data without using the Internet connection. Bluetooth 4.0-based smartphones (and other gadgets) can communicate with an external BLE-transmitter called the Beacon.
Here are some ideas of how you can use this technology within your mobile wallet:
- An iBeacon-enabled POS can instantly "read" the user's details, meaning they don't need to swap/scan their card or coupon during checkout. All their data will be automatically visible in the clerk's POS terminal.
- You can enhance in-store customer experience by sending personalized deals and real-time recommendations as they move along the aisles. Additionally, you offer indoor navigation with this technology.
To learn more about iBeacons, check out this post.
QR Codes
QR codes are often used as an alternative to NFC. Here are the two companies successfully leveraging this approach to mobile payments:
Starbucks' mobile wallet app (which accounts for 21% of all it's US in-store transactions) allows customers to link their payment methods, encrypt them into a secure QR code that is stored in the cloud and then simply scan the code at the checkout.
LevelUp apps also support QR payments for registered users along with NFC and iBeacon technology functionality.
Payment Apps
Established businesses like financial institutions and mobile payment providers may want to consider partnering with local merchants and support checking out through their app.
Payments through PayPal are already supported in a number of storefronts. Apple Pay and Android Pay are also working on strategically expanding their network offline.
If you are one of the dominant banks in the market, you may want consider this route.
Mobile Payments and Wearables
The wearable market keeps growing steadily over years and is expected to hit $19 billion by 2018. For mobile payment providers, that stands for another lucrative market opportunity to tap into.
Apple Pay is already supported on Apple Watch through NFC chips, meaning we should see more wallet apps design for this gadget specifically quite soon.
Square – a popular credit card processing provider, has recently launched a mobile payment app for Apple Watch – Cash – which allows users to send and receive personal and business payments through their smart watch.
TD Bank Group and MasterCard recently teamed up with Nymi – an innovative wearable manufacturer and authentication solution developer – to build the world's first wearable gadget that will biometrically authenticate user's payments through heartbeat rate. They have already piloted with the first successful payment.
While the concept is still being tested and is far from going mass-market, it's an interesting route to consider for the future.
How To Make a Mobile Wallet App That is Secure
Security concerns slow down the adoption of mobile wallets.
According to a recent survey by Gallup, 55% of respondents said that certain security issues prevent them from using mobile wallets and mobile payments. Some mentioned losing their phones, while others referred to getting their device hacked or payment data stolen during a transaction.
Yet the majority of modern mobile payment methods (Apple Pay, Android Pay, and Samsung Pay) already come with multiple layers of security. Incorporating these payment methods and allowing to use them in-store do not carry any additional risks neither for merchants, nor for consumers.
The majority of current POS systems, which support NFC payments, are EMV compliant by default too.
When it comes to building the mobile wallet app, there are established security standards and protocols as well such as:
A user gets assigned a onetime number that represents the actual credit/debit card number in the payment transaction. This token can only be "detokenized" by the respective service provider.
There are three common types of tokenization:
- During online transactions the merchant can never see the customer's full PAN as it's immediately tokenized (meaning fewer chances of getting it stolen).
- POS terminal tokenization occurs immediately after the card is swiped or tapped against it.
- Mobile payment providers tokenize user's PAN by default and store the information either on device (Apple) or in the cloud (Android).
Additional security methods can include:
- Point-to-point encryption, which additionally secures the payment transaction during the interactions with a POS terminal.
- Additional mobile device identification, which pairs a user's mobile wallet with a certain smartphone.
Tips For Building a Mobile Wallet That Consumers Actually Use
While the stats imply a rapid growth of mobile payments, consumer enthusiasm, and adoption rates still remain a bit low.
A recent survey conducted by Accenture revealed the following tendencies:
- 52% of US smartphone users are "extremely aware" of mobile payments,
- But only 18% use them regularly.
- Millennials and higher-income households are among the most active adopters (23% and 38% respectively) who are using contactless payment options at least once a week.
A lot of people feel reluctant about picking up new habits and using new payment methods opposed to the traditional ones.
But there's more to that.
As Teri Llach, CMO at Blackhawk Network, noted:
"We believe that most digital wallet players to date have been focused on the wrong objective – speedier payment – not on an improved mechanism for consumers to shop, spend, save and engage with their favorite retailers"
After all, taking out your credit card and swapping it isn't that hard.
A lot of people choose to use a mobile wallet for other reasons e.g. to avoid carrying loyalty cards or coupons, getting paper receipts or to reduce the wait time in the line.
In fact, solutions that offer additional features such as P2P payments, special loyalty deals prove to become more popular with the consumers.
To build a powerful and popular mobile wallet application you may want to consider including the next functionality:
- Reward points tracker and aggregator.
- Immediate access to coupons and personalized deals, rebates and rebate submission options.
- Budgeting tool, which would allow customers to see how much they spend per month and where do that money goes.
- Personalized in-store deals through iBeacon technology.
- Digital receipts.
- More secure authentication e.g. through fingerprint scanning.
If you are building a mobile app for your business always think what the customer wants.
As for the general growth of mobile payment ecosystem, it is said to be driven by the next determinants:
- Linkable payment options (credit/debit cards, online payment systems)
- Special wallet-linked offers and coupons.
- Specific brand/retailer loyalty programs.
- Timely reminders about the in-wallet offers.
- Retailer adoption rates.
Keep those in mind when working on your mobile wallet concept.

I work with a guy named Luke Miller who is another blogging science nerd like me. Dr. Miller is really good at setting up control and monitoring systems, both for scientific purposes like creating laboratory aquariums that realistically simulate the natural environment, and for random things like building a barbecue grill that monitors a roast's internal temperature, adjusts itself accordingly, and posts to its own twitter account when the food is ready. Something Luke did recently that I thought was especially cool was make a time-lapse movie of the progression from summer to winter in his backyard in Nahant, Massachusetts...
I think the time lapse thing is beautiful, in a melancholy sort of way. Luke also has a shorter but higher-resolution time lapse video of snow accumulation during a storm, which is posted on the same blog page where I got his season video.
I'm not sure if I have the right technology and skills, but I might want to try to set up a time-lapse video in my own Lynn, MA neighborhood. Perhaps I could focus on this dirty snow mound in front of the liquor store.

Rogue One Bits: The Main Inspiration For Jyn Erso, a Very Cool U-Wing Toy, and Alan Tudyk on Playing a 7-Foot Droid
Posted on Thursday, September 15th, 2016 by Jacob Hall
In this edition of Rogue One Bits:
- Felicity Jones reveals which character was her chief inspiration for Jyn Erso.
- Alan Tudyk hilariously discusses what it is like to play a hulking droid.
- A look at the known and unknown history of Mads Mikkelsen's Galen Erso.
- Check out a magnet-powered U-Wing toy that hovers in place.
- A Star Wars Target ad that works far better than it has any right to.
- The chief problem facing Lucasfilm and Disney as Rogue One's release date approaches.
Felicity Jones is having one hell of a year. In addition to playing Jyn Erso in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, she's also starring alongside Tom Hanks in the upcoming Inferno and plays a key role in J.A. Bayona's A Monster Calls. And in a new interview with Yahoo Movies, she revealed that one of those projects allowed her to work with the actress behind her chief inspiration for Jyn:
Well, it's interesting because I didn't know [when shooting A Monster Calls] that I would be playing Jyn, who is very much inspired by Sigourney's character [Ripley] in Aliens. So it's interesting that we had worked together. But I've been so inspired by her work and she was a role model growing up.
Jyn Erso being inspired by Ellen Ripley actually makes a lot of sense. Ripley is one of the great science fiction heroines of all time, a character who is incredibly human, even when she rises to the occasion and kicks every ass in the room. In fact, Jones says that this angle could apply to all of the new Rebel characters:
I think you'll love all the rebels. Because they're flawed. They've all had histories, they've all had their own struggles, and I feel like people are going to really champion them and fall in love with them.
The rest of the interview, which mostly focuses on her other 2016 work, can be read at the link above.
Speaking of the Erso family, Star Wars Explained has dedicated an episode to exploring the know and unknown history of Galen Erso, Jyn's father and the scientist forced to help construct the Death Star. We still don't know too much about the character outside of what Mads Mikkelsen has revealed and the plot synopsis for an unreleased book, but this is still pretty solid.
Although Rogue One is set shortly before the events of the original Star Wars and features its fair share of familiar ships, it's also expanding both the Rebel and Imperial arsenals with new vehicles that we'll just have to assume were juuust offscreen during the events of the original trilogy. Naturally, the Empire's TIE Striker and the Rebel Alliance's U-Wing have already been the subject of numerous toy announcements, but this one may be one of the coolest ones yet. This U-Wing model uses magnets to hover in place, creating the illusion that the ship is taking off or landing. It's pretty simple technology (kids have been playing with magnet toys for decades), but it's the kind of thing that I know I'll be tempted to plant on my desk so I can spend far too much of my time staring at it. You can check out more details over at Beast Kingdom's official page for the toy.
Star Wars has a long history of using nostalgia to help sell merchandise and let's face it – it's often pretty darn effective. However, this new Target ad is a twist on the usual formula, focusing on how certain fans of all ages and background incorporate Star Wars into their daily lives. I'm awfully cynical about advertising in general, but I'll be honest: this ad works. In fact, it works well enough that StarWars.com has interviewed each fan featured in this spot. For example, here's that teacher discussing how he uses the films to teach Shakespeare:
The first lesson I ever taught was in a workshop class, and the lesson was to my fellow aspiring teachers. It was 2005, and Revenge of the Sith was fresh in my mind. As I watched the film, I was struck with how closely Anakin Skywalker's fall fit beautifully with Shakespeare's formula for a tragic hero. He is a prominent figure revered by other characters in the story, has special talents, a tragic flaw, and has a dramatic fall from grace.
So, it seemed like a natural fit to incorporate Episode III into a lesson on Shakespeare and tragic heroes. One of the keys to successful engagement is to meet students where they are at, and nothing does that quite like Star Wars. I also believe if you have passion for the material you are teaching, it comes to life for your classes.

Ozone Season is Upon Us
For the past year, the Alamo Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) has been monitoring the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) activities related to revisions to the ozone standard. On October 1, 2015, the EPA announced a new 70 parts per billion (ppb) national ozone standard to limit smog-forming pollution. The new standard is a lower (and more stringent) from the previous standard of 75 ppb, but at the high end of a range that the EPA identified last fall. In accordance with the federal Clean Air Act, when the EPA makes a determination that a region's ozone levels are too high (what it calls "non-attainment"), the MPO must develop and execute a plan that addresses all transportation related sources contributing to ozone and offer transportation control solutions to reduce overall emissions.
Recently, rising levels of ozone pushed the three-year average at the Camp Bullis regulatory monitor, one of three in Bexar County that regulators use to gauge whether the region meets air quality standards, to 71 parts per billion, slightly above the new EPA threshold. As a result, our region is poised to be designated as "non-attainment" by the EPA by October 2017. This designation would mean implementation of federal regulations requiring expensive limitations on (and retrofits to) the area's biggest emitters of air pollution. For example, new pollution-control equipment likely would be required on cars, chemical plants, and manufacturing facilities.
Ozone season for our region began April 1st and continues through October 31st. Regardless of what we do from this point forward, ground-level ozone is going to be a continuing challenge for our region, especially as we continue to grow. Every person in our community is going to have a role to play in addressing the ozone problem. Our role is to continue to work in cooperation with federal, state, and local partners to ensure that air quality requirements are at the forefront of planning decisions.
Why is Ground Level Ozone Dangerous?
Ground level ozone, more commonly known as smog, is the brown haze that rests upon the region on hot, sunny days. Ozone forms when certain pollutants mix with sunlight. Ozone formation is most likely during the months of April, May, June, July, August, September and October, when heat and sunlight are at their hottest and brightest in the region. In high ozone conditions, people can experience a number of different health problems, including chest pain, coughing, throat irritation, and congestion. People with lung disease, children, older adults, and people who are active outdoors may be particularly sensitive to ozone.
What Should I Do When an "Air Quality Health Alert" is Announced?
It is important to remember that no one entity, working alone, can address the impacts of ozone. Everyone can help reduce ground-level ozone pollution. Here are some ways that you can do your part:
- Carpool or walk for late morning trips
- Refuel after 6 p.m.
- Take a VIA bus to your next meeting or if possible, walk or ride a bike (for more information visit www.viainfo.net or contact Connect Seguin at email@example.com)
- Use teleconferencing instead of driving to meetings or bundle meetings together
- Try to avoid morning rush hour, ask your employer about flex-schedules or compressed workweeks
- Take your lunch to work or school and avoid mid-day trips and errands.
- Postpone landscaping work using small gasoline engines until after 6 p.m.
- Share a ride to work or school (for more information, visit the Commute Solutions website at www.nuride.com)
- Drive the speed limit or less, remove excess weight from your vehicle, keep your tires properly inflated, idle less, avoid drive-thrus and combine errands into single trips

When analyzing the potentials and possibilities for AUC, it is important to see where it stands in relation to other educational institutes. This phase of the analysis relates to the research of the digital tools used by universities and schools around the world. Those tools are not currently available at AUC, perhaps because they have not yet been introduced, or in some cases because they do not apply. This part will be examined in phase II of the analysis
The following are a few of the digital tools implemented in other schools and universities:
-Digital Games As Tools For Teaching
-Video Production As Tools For Learning

I should have also received the Economic Times Award
At the recently held Economic Times awards ceremony, Bharti Foundation was awarded the award for corporate philanthropy. My argument is that I along with million others should have also been given at least a citation if not the award with Bharti Foundation. I believe I and a million others had also contributed to the Rs. 200 crore corpus which Bharti Foundation spent on opening of the 500 primary and secondary Satya Bharti schools. In fact, I believe that I and a million others should have been the award for funding the Rs. 200 crore corpus while the Bharti brothers (Sunil Mittal & Rakesh Mittal of Airtel fame) should have been given the credit for managing the effort in an efficient and effective manner. Incidently, you could have even contributed towards this effort without knowing about it.
Nobody listens to TRAI
Telecom regulator TRAI has AGAIN directed the telcos to take explicit consent from customers before billing them with value-added services. This directive is the result of increased consumer complaints because telcos keep billing its subscribers for services not requested by them and also without their consent.
Airtel wants to be like Toyota
I recently read an article in ET in which its CEO & Joint MD Manoj Kohli was profiled. It seems that Manoj Kohli's dream is to make Bharti Airtel the Toyota of the telecom industry.

About hormone therapy
Find out about hormone treatment for prostate cancer, when you have it and possible side effects.
What it is
Hormones occur naturally in your body. They control the growth and activity of normal cells. Testosterone is a male hormone mainly made by the testicles.
Prostate cancer depends on testosterone to grow. Hormone therapy blocks or lowers the amount of testosterone in the body. This can lower the risk of an early prostate cancer coming back when you have it with other treatments. Or it can shrink an advanced prostate cancer or slow its growth.
When you have it
Hormone therapy with radiotherapy
You have this if:
- your cancer hasn't spread but is at a high risk of coming back, e.g. the cancer has grown through the covering (capsule) of your prostate (stage 3)
- you have a very high prostatic specific antigen (PSA) level
- you have a high Gleason score
You might have hormone therapy before, during and after radiotherapy. Doctors usually recommend that you have the treatment for between 3 months and 3 years. How long depends on the risk of your cancer coming back and how many side effects you get.
You might have it with other treatments such as high frequency ultrasound treatment or internal radiotherapy.
Hormone therapy alone
Hormone treatment is also a treatment if:
- the cancer is too advanced to have treatment with the aim to cure it
- you can't have surgery or radiotherapy because of other health problems
- you don't want radiotherapy or surgery
You normally carry on taking hormone therapy for as long as it is working.
Your doctor might suggest you have intermittent therapy. This is when you have treatment for 6 to 12 months and then have a break for a few months. You then start treatment again and have another break
With intermittent therapy, you may have fewer side effects. At present the evidence is that intermittent treatment is not worse than having hormone treatment all the time. Talk to your doctor about this.
Advanced cancer
Hormone therapy is also a treatment for cancers that have spread to another part of the body. You might have it with chemotherapy such as docetaxel.
Treatment if your cancer comes back
Hormone therapy is also a treatment if your cancer comes back after having radiotherapy.
Types of hormone treatment
Drugs you have as injections
The injections work by blocking messages from a gland in the brain that tell the testicles to produce testosterone.
There are two types:
- luteinising hormone (LH) blocker (agonists) for example leuprorelin (Prostap) and goserelin acetate (Zoladex)
- gonadotrophin releasing hormone (GnRH) blockers, for example degarelix (Firmagon)
Luteinising hormone
You have these as injections, they include:
- leuprorelin (Prostap) – you have this every 4 weeks or 12 weeks
- goserelin acetate (Zoladex) – you have this every 4 weeks or 12 weeks
- buserelin (Suprefact) – you have this as an injection 3 times a day for 7 days and then a nasal spray 6 times a day
- triptorelin (Decapeptyl) – you have this once a month, 3 monthly or 6 monthly
At first, the injections may make your symptoms worse. This is called tumour flare. Your doctor will give you an anti androgen tablet to take for the first 4 to 6 weeks of your treatment with the LH blocker to stop the tumour flare.
This is the other type of injection. There is currently only one type called degarelix (Firmagon). When you first start treatment, you have 2 injections on the same day. Then you have one injection a month. There is no risk of tumour flare with this treatment.
Anti androgen tablets
These tablets stop testosterone from your testicles getting to the cancer cells. Examples of anti androgens include:
- bicalutamide (Casodex) – you take it once a day
- flutamide (Drogenil) – 3 times a day
- enzalutamide (Xtandi) – once a day
Flutamide and bicalutamide are less likely to cause erection problems and other side effects than leuprorelin (Prostap) or goserelin (Zoladex). But they are more likely to cause breast swelling and tenderness.
Enzalutamide is a treatment for men who have already had other types of hormone therapy and chemotherapy with docetaxel (Taxotere) that is no longer working.
Abiraterone tablets
The trade name for abiraterone is Zytiga. It is a type of hormone therapy that blocks an enzyme called cytochrome p17. Without this enzyme, the testicles and other body tissue can't make testosterone.
It is a tablet you take every day.
You might have abiraterone if you have advanced prostate cancer and have already had other types of hormone therapy and chemotherapy with docetaxel (Taxotere) that is no longer working.
There are two main ways to stop the body producing testosterone:
- drug treatment
- surgery
Drug treatment is the usual way to stop your body producing testosterone. You have drug treatment as tablets or injections.
Surgery to remove your testicles (orchidectomy) isn't a common way of lowering the amount of testosterone you produce.
You usually only have surgery to remove your testicles if you need your testosterone reduced urgently. For example if your cancer has spread to your bones and is pressing on your spinal cord, your doctors might want to reduce the amount of testosterone quickly.
Your doctors may also suggest surgery as an option if you don't want to have treatment with medicines.
Checking your hormone therapy is working
You'll have regular blood tests to check the level of a protein called prostate specific antigen (PSA). PSA is a protein made by both normal and cancerous prostate cells. It is in the blood in small amounts in all men, unless they have had their prostate gland completely removed.
While the hormone therapy is working, the level of PSA should stay stable or may go down. But if prostate cancer cells are starting to grow and develop, the level of PSA may go up. Then your doctor may need to change your treatment. They will discuss this with you.
Side effects
Side effects of hormone therapy are due to the low levels of testosterone in your body. Some are common to all hormone therapies for prostate cancer. Some effects vary from drug to drug.
The main side effects are:
- erectile problems (impotence)
- hot flushes and sweating
- feeling tired and weak
- breast tenderness
- tumour flare
Side effects of long term treatment are:
- weight gain
- memory problems
- mood swings and depression
- bone thinning (osteoporosis)
- risk of early heart failure

The battle over oil pipelines intensified a couple years ago with the protests at Standing Rock. For months, thousands of people demonstrated at the site of the Dakota Access oil pipeline construction project in North Dakota.
And now, it's spreading.
All over the country, people are moving to camps in the woods for months at a time. They're climbing trees. Chaining themselves to bulldozers.
And Minnesota is poised to be the next battleground.
The Canadian company Enbridge wants to replace a nearly 50-year-old pipeline called Line 3. But opponents of the pipeline are already threatening major protests.
Minnesota regulators are weighing now whether to let Enbridge replace its aging Line 3 pipeline with one that could carry about twice as much oil along a new route across the state. In June, the state Public Utilities Commission will decide whether to allow the process to go forward.
• The latest: The debate over Line 3
So what's going on? Why is there suddenly this dramatic conflict around pipelines? And is it really even about pipelines, at all?
In MPR News' new, five-part podcast, MPR News reporter Dan Kraker takes a look at those oil pipelines that flow beneath our feet.
He'll explore how pipelines are now at the forefront of an epic tug of war between our reliance on oil and the risk that oil poses to the future of our planet — and how we all play a role in that story.

Pipeline plan tests state's environmental-business balance | State regulators are weighing whether to let Enbridge Energy build a new high-volume oil pipeline — a replacement to the existing Line 3 — across northern Minnesota. The company says the new line is vital to the nation's energy needs and will be strong and safe. Environmentalists say it's a disaster waiting to happen. Is there a middle ground?

So, I have made the acquaintance of a native New Mexican living about 45 minutes from us. I met her on the previously mentioned statewide homeschool group. There are actually quite a few of us former New Mexicans in these parts and we began reminiscing about the lack of sopapillas, Hatch green chile and all the other New Mexican food that is impossible to get here.
This led to an invitation to get together and make…tamales! Yum. I usually make a small batch of tamales for us for Christmas Eve. Although there isn't a whole lot I miss about NM, one of the things I really do miss is the food. So, hopefully we will have a tamale-making party before Christmas. The girls and I are making biscochitos today. What are the holidays without them??
Now, if only luminarias would stand up to our Oregon rain!

Gainesville Police audio is not on Broadcastify. This was all I could find regarding any police/authority radio for the shooting that took place on March 3, 2014 in Gainesville, Florida.
YOUTUBE → Alachua County Fire Rescue and EMS
Any chance I could get you to review the new footage of Michael receiving CPR…..watch between the 33 and 36 second mark…..this does not look like Thomas. The clothes he is wearing seem to be that of an older man, Miichael does not seem as fat as the guy they are giiving CPR to, I can see his right leg in the video as it moves vigorously with the CPR but cannot see find his left leg?
Also I notice a strange hologram image….watch as the EMT facing us points with his right gloved hand….notice something underneath his hand as he points?? Whatever it is it casts a strange shadow down his leg….it is rectangular in size…..in the end…I just dont think it is Michael…
Still no funeral arrangements, no obit….etc etc
Is there new footage of this or are you talking about what I posted on youtube- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsoxWpd80dk
It is this video I am questioning…..The torso of the person does not look like him….The troso appears to be that of an older man, the black slacks and the white tennis shoes……I can see his right leg moving but not his left meaning I cannot make out his left leg at all, something just not seem right about the person receiving CPR….also notice the EMT who is facing us…as he points with his right gloved hand…notice that rectangular image under his had as he points….what is that?
33 sec to 36 sec mark
I can't really comment on the body issue – obviously he wasn't one of those lanky types and I'm not sure I would say for sure that the torso resembles an older man but other than that, I just don't know if that's him because I never met him nor obviously saw him recently. The tennis shoes weren't just white – they had green neon on them, not so grandpa-ish. I think his left leg is bent, with his knee pointing almost directly at the camera. It's easier to see right in the beginning. Yeah, it doesn't seem right and it's really disturbing to watch but I've seen CPR performed on a real person before in an emergency and it wasn't pretty. However, the person was much skinnier and older so that probably doesn't account for much in this situation. Yes, the rectangular image! Odd. The EMT reaches down and turns it. Maybe a piece of medical equipment? Any EMTs out there?
I am only judging based on recent videos of Thomas( dont know whether to call him Thomas or Michael as I knew him as Thomas.)..it just does not seem like him to me…I question the image above because it seems a shadow onto his leg meaning you can see his pant leg through the image……maybe its nothing…I dont know…thanks for the analysis….. The reason I think this is important is because the whole incident is strange….people with no medical history, no criminal history simply do not turn into a monster overnight and go off and stab someone with no known motive. You do know about all the connections to the Gainsville police?? His brother made TV movies with Officer Tobias and the Gainesville PD?? meaning the officer speaking in the above video know Thomas and Thomas's brother very well…..
Looking at video again, this is probably police equipment, not EMT equipment. Doesn't appear the ambulance has arrived yet. Could be some sort of transparent plastic – have you ever seen those see through clipboards? I'm not saying that's what it is but it could be of same material.
Where is that photo from, the guy in the blue shirt? Is that Micheal? Can someone please tell me where it was taken from thanks.
A ridiculous amount of coffee was consumed completing my last project. Add some fuel if you'd like to keep me going!

Knopp was at the picket and wanted to hear the nurses concerns about patient care.
He has spent a lot of time at St. Charles in recent years, especially when his daughter underwent brain surgery a couple years ago.
Knopp says the nurses have concerns about patient care in regards to proposed changes St. Charles administrators want to make.
Knopp says he's hopeful the hospital and the nurses will work thorough the patient care issue and come to a contract agreement.

As a child, did you feel like you were you expected to pursue a certain type of career? How did this make you feel? Did you wind up choosing a different profession or path?
Oh yeah. I was "encouraged" to be either a hairdresser/cosmetologist or a nurse.
Nurse b/c of the "job security" and we all know what has happened to that in the last couple of decades, right?
So first I was a mechanic, then various unskilled jobs, then a factory where I got OJT to run certain very specific machines that don't translate well to other manufacturing plants...finally got my license as a massage therapist after two separate schools (y'all know the story on the first one, right?), and currently taking calls in a call center.
And there'll likely be another career change or two if I'm to believe the "statistics".

Pain Management
Chronic pain is sometimes an outcome of certain urologic conditions. Pain management services, integrated with urologic care, can be helpful, and The Urology Group is committed to helping our patients explore a variety of techniques to provide relief.
As a result, The Urology Group may refer you to a pain specialist for consultation and treatment. These healthcare professionals coordinate care with your urologist but operate as separate providers. Pain management programs are aligned with The Urology Group treatment for a seamless experience for patients.
Treatment may include interventional pain procedures, such as injections or an epidural to numb the area, allowing nerves to "settle down" and prevent sending pain signals to the brain. These treatments can result in overall pain reduction. Some treatments require light anesthesia and may be performed in The Urology Center's outpatient surgery facility.
Physical Therapy
Pain from pelvic floor disorders can sometimes be relieved through physical therapy.
Kathleen Novicki, PT, PRPC, and the therapists at The Center for Pelvic Floor and Core Rehabilitation, are regional experts in the field of pelvic physical therapy with specialty certifications in Manual Therapy and Pelvic Rehabilitation.
Therapy may involve biofeedback, exercise, manual therapy, behavioral training, ultrasound or TENS. Physical therapy is available at The Urology Group's Norwood Campus and at several other convenient locations and hours in the greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky area.
Ask your physician from The Urology Group to refer you to physical therapy or contact them directly at: 513-463-2518.

Best Crusty Bread - Easiest Bread Recipe Ever
I m not a cook, I just cook for my family every day, just to have that disclaimer in there, however, I do like to prepare a lot of the food from scratch and one of this things is the bread we eat every day.
I've been baking this bread for years now and really every time we have guests for dinner I received a lot of compliments for the bread just made.
I believe there is not an easier bread recipe out there. You do not need a starter dough, do not need to knead the bread, do not need to have some fancy equipment.
As long as you have water, yeast, salt, flour, oven, 5 minute and the willingness to do it you are set to go.
I like to keep things pretty simple in my life so that includes my cooking. So with no further do here is the way I prepare the bread.
3 cups warm water
2 tsp yeast
2 tsp salt
6 cups of all-purpose white flour.
What else you need?
Cast Iron Pot (lid on)
How to?
Put water, yeast, salt in a container (make sure the water is warm but not hot) and stir it just enough for the salt and yeast to mix with the water somewhat.
Add the flour, mix until all the flour is incorporated into the water.
It doesn't matter how you mix the ingredients together as long as the mixture is uniform, without any dry lumps of flour. You can use a spoon, a high capacity food processor or a heavy-duty stand mixer.
I prefer to use my hand to mix the dough as I find it the easier way to go and also I can get a feel for the dough as being too soft or too hard.
You should end up with a pretty soft doth but not runny soft. The softer the dough the fluffier the bread you get. However, the dough has to be hard enough to be able to form the loaf on a flat wood after resting.
You do not have to knead the dough. Just mix all ingredients together until uniform.
Depending on the brand of the flour you are using sometimes using just a little more than 6 cups of flour may be necessary. As of right now, I use a white organic flower, 100% wheat. Read labels when buying. For this type of flour 6 cups of flour are just perfect.
This steps should not take you more than 5 min.
Leave the dough in the container to rest for 2 hours. After the 2 hours, have some flour sprinkle on a flat wood and form your loaf of bread on it. Leave the dough to rest on the flat wood for another 15-20 min.
In the meantime have your iron cast pot preheat in the oven for 15-20 min before placing the dough in it.
I bake my bread in an iron cast pot (lid on) which I preheat in the oven for about 15 min.
Is very important to have the pot preheated before placing the dough in it. If the pot is cold when placing the dough in it the dough will stick to the pot and you will have a hard time getting the bread out of the pot. ( I made that mistake one time :)...)
Ones the pot is hot I place the dough in it lid on for 1 hour for 350 degrees F or until the crust turns golden brown. You do not have to fuss over it. Just let it be. For the crust to form you do not have to take the lid off the pot at any time other when is done. Just put it in the oven and let it in for 1 hour.
If you do not have a cast iron pot using the same method you can bake the bread on a pizza board that again has to be preheated in the oven for about 15 min.
When you take the bread out of the oven the crust may be hard but no worries, it will get softer after cooling down.
That's it. Bon Appetite......
This is just a base recipe for bread. You can add to it a lot of things to make it your own, customised the way you want it. If you would like to use whole wheat flour you may need to add more water. Play with ingredients. Don't be afraid to try it more than once. Is worth it.
If you have any questions about this please leave a comment and I will try to help if I can.
Thank you for stopping by and I hope you will try to make the bread at list ones. If you like bread you will fell in love with this one.

4 Reasons Why A-Reece Should Have Stayed With Ambitiouz Entertainment
It's been months now since A-Reece left Ambitiouz Entertainment and we've been observing the growth of the wonderkid ever since. While at it, we've come to a conclusion that the now 20 year old rapper would have been better off staying with AE or at least signing with another high profile record label.
Let's take a look at the 4 reasons why we came up with this.
1. Promotions
A-Reece revealed he wasn't getting paid enough by Ambitiouz Entertainment but one thing we all know is that his career is well funded. The rapper's debut project Paradise was well promoted and produced more than 3 high quality videos.
Since Reece left the label however we are yet to see him in any music video. His singles are of high quality, but are they promoted and marketed well enough? Only one of his song has made it to iTunes.
2. Music Videos
We earlier highlighted the fact that Reece would have at least remained on television if he has signed a record deal with Ambitiouz Entertainment.
As seen with Nasty C who signed with Mabala Noise, remaining under an umbrella as a young artiste at least ensures some things are put in place for you and music videos is one of those things.
That been said, we look forward to the A-Reece getting enough resource to shoot a video in the nearest future.
3. Shows & Endorsements
Is he getting booked? A-Reece has managed to perform in a show or two in recent months but when you consider the fact that Nasty C – who has now surpassed him, is getting shows every now and then, you'd concluded A-Reece would have been better off if someone was getting shows for him.
While Nasty C is running with Puma, Reece is somewhere between finding himself and getting his next hit
It'd take some time before his news label "The Wrecking Crew" develop enough connect in the music business so as they can get him high paying shows.
4. Finance
Whether you agree or not, the reality now is that A-Reece's career is now lowly financed. Take a look at the career of Babes Wodumo for example, she is in a well financed label and as such her career continues to shoot, same with Nasty C.
It remains unlikely that A-Reece will return to Ambitiouz but there is a high probability that an investor is just around the corner to take his career to the next level
The 4 reasons above means A-Reece's career has stopped growing. It must be noted that it hasn't deteriorated either.
We are hoping in the next months, the rapper can grab the bull by the horn and take shit to the next level.

Topic: Health Technology Assessment
Angle: Implementation Study – Preliminary Findings
Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) face many challenges in accessing primary care. Obtaining physically accessible, knowledgeable, convenient (geographically accessible and timely) care can be some challenges. The Centre for Family Medicine Family Health Team (CFFM FHT) Mobility Clinic was established in 2010 to provide barrier-free, comprehensive primary care for persons with spinal cord injuries. Personal Computer Video Conferencing (PCVC) is promising and has the potential to overcome many barriers but has the disadvantage of not being able to provide an in-person assessment. This study, examined the feasibility of personal computer video conferencing (PCVC) in a complex patient population. This three-year study aimed to recruit 25 patients with one general assessment appointment per year. To date, 32 patients have been recruited for appointments using PCVC and have had 51 PCVC encounters with the Mobility Clinic team.
Patients of the Mobility Clinic with a SCI are consented to participate in the PCVC study. Upon consent, an e-mail from the Ontario Telehealth Network (OTN) is sent with instructions on downloading the Vidyo program necessary to complete to PCVC. A research assistant follows up with the patient to ensure the program was downloaded and to troubleshoot any issues. An e-mail from OTN is then sent on the day of the PCVC appointment, and a research assistant calls the patient prior to the PCVC to provide a six-digit PIN required for the consultation. The patient and the Mobility Clinic team are invited to complete a survey on their experience using the technology following the consultation.
The study is currently in year two and several themes have emerged in the implementation of this technology. Initial appointments using the technology were challenging, both for staff and patients. Challenges included troubleshooting internet browser issues, connecting with patients prior to the appointment to ensure software was installed as well as technical issues that arose during the video appointment such as audio or internet connections. While the initial appointment was cumbersome, subsequent appointments had less technical issues and its benefit to patients far outweighed minor technical issues.
Patients have reacted to the new service with 75% of consultations resulting in a "very satisfied" response to the service, and have favourably said, "It reduces travel, makes travel to in person consultation irrelevant to solving issues often (but not necessarily always.)" and "Not having to leave my house was amazing and very convenient. I liked that I was able to speak with so many people at once.
PCVC can be an effective means to communicate with individuals with spinal cord injury and overcome important barriers to receiving medical care (travel, accessible office).

Tests were conducted on a fluidic oscillator for the purpose of determining its potential use as a flowmeter. Water, Bayol 35, and an ethylene glycol-water mixture were used as the test fluids. The effects of setback, aspect ratio, splitter distance, and feedback inlet location on oscillation frequency were investigated. Tests show that the oscillation frequency, when using liquids, is linearly related to volume flow rate. The tests show that the oscillation frequency was insensitive to both density and viscosity in the range investigated.

Our Specialties
Hard to fit Contact Lenses
Any patient with an irregular corneal curvature (the cornea is the clear tissue comprising the front surface of the eye) presents as a difficult contact lens fit. Specifically, patients with keratoconus, pellucid marginal degeneration, those with poor refractive surgery outcomes (i.e. lasik, radial keratotomy) and those who have undergone a corneal transplant typically have irregular corneal curvatures. In most cases, these patients greatly benefit from gas permeable (GP) contact lenses because these lenses have the unique ability to restore a normal curvature to the eye. In a sense, GP contact lenses mask the corneal irregularities.
But fitting GP contact lenses on irregular corneas is no easy task, especially if your eye care professional has little to no experience fitting them. Dr. H. Jeff Ward, Highlands Ranch Optical's optometrist, specializes in difficult GP contact lens fits. He has distinguished himself by completing a prestigious residency in Corneal Pathology and Contact Lenses at the New England College of Optometry. His residency included rotations at Harvard University's Massachusetts Eye & Ear Infirmary, The Scleral Lens Foundation of Boston, Cornea Consultants of Boston, and the New England Eye Institute. At each of these rotations, he routinely performed difficult contact lens fits. In addition, Dr. Ward is a certified Wave GP Contact Lens Fitter. Wave GP Contact Lenses are custom designed from a patient's "corneal fingerprint". In the fitting of such lenses, a special video camera (topographer) is used, in conjunction with sophisticated software to digitally map a patient's cornea. The data generated from this process is then used to create a GP contact lens that mirrors the actual shape of the eye. It is, hands down, the most sophisticated GP contact lens on the market, and is ideal for irregular corneas.
So if you are in need of a complicated contact lens fit, rest assured that Highlands Ranch Optical can meet your needs.
Corneal Reshaping
Imagine no glasses, no daytime contact lenses, and no surgery....just great vision all day long. Believe it or not, with an exciting new therapy called Corneal Reshaping (CR), you can have just that. The principles behind CR are very similar to those used in Lasik... the big difference being no need for surgery. In both cases, the goal is to flatten the eye's cornea (the cornea is the clear tissue comprising the front surface of the eye). In Lasik this is achieved by cutting a flap in the cornea, peeling the flap back, and then removing tissue under the flap. The flap is then laid back down and the patient waits to heal. In CR, patients simply wear contact lenses that flatten the cornea while they sleep. The lenses essentially mold the cornea so that when a patient wakes up and removes them, they see perfectly all day long.
CR is extremely safe and entirely reversible. And it offers several advantages over conventional contacts: no end of day dryness no lenses to fall out when swimming and perfect vision at night while wearing the lenses (no more fumbling around for your glasses so you can read the alarm clock!). Another added benefit occurs in children. Recent research has demonstrated that CR may significantly slow down the progression of nearsightedness (myopia) in children.
Ask Dr. Ward if you are a candidate...he'll be happy to discuss this exciting new option with you.
Computer Vision Syndrome
According to the American Optometric Association, 175 million people use a computer every day. And we can expect that number to increase every year as more and more jobs will require the use of computers. While computers enable us to be more efficient and productive, this can come at a price. Researchers have recently identified a condition called Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS). Typical symptoms include: eyestrain, headaches, slow focusing, tired eyes, neck and shoulder pain, and blurred vision at distance. CVS occurs because the human visual system is not designed for long hours of computer viewing. In addition, the letters on a computer screen are harder to focus than printed text as they are composed of pixels - tiny dots of light with blurry borders. Hence, eyes have to work extra hard to clear words and images on a computer screen.
To better identify patients susceptible to CVS, we use the PRIO Computer Vision Tester. This instrument allows the doctor of optometry to precisely determine if a patient would benefit from a computer spectacle prescription. When prescribed, computer glasses allow your eyes to relax and be more comfortable at the computer. Research has also shown that employees who use computer glasses make fewer mistakes!
With computer glasses, the ideal power for computer work is placed directly in front of the pupil, allowing patients to look straight-on at the monitor (as opposed to conventional progressive addition lenses where it is necessary to tilt the head back to find the optimal power for the computer monitor). Patients frequently comment the elimination of this head tilt eliminates their neck and shoulder pain.
So if you work more than two hours a day on a computer, make sure you ask Dr. Ward about this exciting new spectacle option.
Z- Wave Bifocal Contact Lenses
After the age of forty, everyone loses their ability to focus well at near, a condition commonly known as presbyopia. And while there are many options available for contact lens wearers once this happens, only one solution works well....Z-Wave Bifocal Contact Lenses. Z-Wave Bifocal Contact lenses are custom designed from a patient's "corneal fingerprint". In the fitting of such lenses, a special video camera (topographer) is used, in conjunction with sophisticated software to digitally map a patient's cornea. The data generated from this process is then used to create a contact lens that mirrors the actual shape of the eye. The result is an incredibly stable lens, essential for a successful bifocal fit. Patients experience simultaneous distance and near vision without reading glasses, often achieving 20/20 vision at both distance and near!
Ask Dr. Ward if you're a candidate, you'll return to glasses-free living again!

A new study by Italian scientists suggests obesity during childhood may alter the shape of the thyroid gland affecting metabolism and growth.
For the study, researchers evaluated 186 obese and overweight children for three years, monitoring thyroid hormone levels and thyroid antibodies. Ultrasound technology was used to image the thyroid gland.
The thyroid gland produces, stores and releases hormones that control some of the body's functions. The gland is located in the neck, just below the Adam's apple.
"The findings show alterations in thyroid function and structure are common in obese children and we may have found the link," said Dr. Giorgio Radetti of the Regional Hospital of Bolzano in Italy.
"We have discovered an association between body mass index and thyroid hormone levels suggestive that excess fat may play a role in thyroid tissue modification."
Scientists have been directing their focus to the role of thyroid hormones in childhood obesity, with some experts suggesting a thyroid problem may be the cause in some overweight children.
The changes detected in thyroid structure are similar to Hashimoto's thyroiditis, an autoimmune disorder in which your immune system attacks your thyroid. However, furthering testing has been inconclusive.
While losing weight can help the thyroid to work properly in tests, researchers are not sure that the structural changes found by ultrasound could be reversed and calls for more studies.
"It's an interesting observation, but not likely to challenge the accepted view that thyroid problems could contribute to obesity, rather than be caused by it.
The study is published in the December issue of the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism (JCEM).
A recent study found that children who are obese or have high cholesterol show early warning signs of heart disease.
One in three children in this country is considered overweight. Some are obese. They face a lifetime of battling the bulge, the social stigma and related health conditions such as diabetes, cancer, and heart problems. #

While flicking through the multitude of christmas catalogues coming in the mail, I started cutting out the little christmas pictures I liked, I didn't know why but I'm glad I did. I made gift tags out of them, all you do is paste them onto card, cut the card away from around the pictures and poke a hole for some string to go through, simples.
I added some diamontes (how to spell??) to make them even more lovely!
All there is to do now is to write the gifter and giftees name on the back!

Jeff Brazier has said his 'busy schedule' was the reason his long-term relationship with fashion buyer girlfriend Claire Springett came to an end.
The father of Jade Goody âs two boys has admitted there was no particular reason why he decided to end things with the fashion buyer, other than he just wasnât feeling it.
âI blamed my busy schedule,â he said after bringing the 16-month romance to a close. However, the Dancing On Ice star claimed that while he âtried to make it workâ the writing was on the wall after the pair went on holiday together.
The 32-year-old insisted: âOn paper, we were a perfect match. After Dancing finished, we went on a great holiday together but, although we didnât argue, it was clear something was missing. Claire was typically dignified.â
To add to the confusion, Brazier said 34-year-old Springett âdidnât put a foot wrongâ.
The TV presenter and reality star says his sons â Bobby, seven, and six-year-old Freddy â have handled the split well after having another person cut from their lives.
He told Closer magazine: âI was worried how theyâd take it. I donât want people to be in their lives and get taken away â especially as theyâve lost their mum. Luckily, the lads have been fine.â

Turkish cuisine is commonly referred to as the food of the Ottoman Empire, which succeeded much of the Middle East and North Africa between the 12th to 19th Century. It is often confused for Lebanese cuisine but there are some clear distinctions between the two. The Turkish love grilling their food, particularly over charcoal, whether it's skewered meats, chilli, or tomatoes. They also borrow inspiration from their neighbours of Greece, and often use eggplant, lamb, chicken, and lentil in their cooking.
What to order?
Menemen: A traditional breakfast one-pan dish prepared with eggs, tomatoes, capsicum, and onions.
Mercimek çorbasi: A lentil soup, which is another traditional breakfast food.
Pide: Essentially a Turkish pizza, Pide is flat bread often topped with minced meat, or cheese and egg.
Gozleme: A savoury pastry and often filled with meat, spinach or cheese.
Kofte: There are different variations of this dish in terms of flavours, but at the end of the day it means meatballs.
Ayran: A popular yoghurt drink, often served cold and is refreshing during summer.
Where to eat

Update on Gary
He seems to be doing a bit better. His face, hands, and neck have flared less today. He was in better spirits for longer than usual which is encouraging. I am not being negative and say it is not going to last but I just hope in the next couple days it continues. There is no improvement in his weakness but I think that will not return for awhile. He is demanding and wants it his way. It is rather comical because he is so precious. However, I have been trying not to let him run the show too much. The bright side as well is that he will be returning once a week to the infusion center for keep the predisone up in his body and the IVIG. I am already mentally preparing that some of these infusions might just involve staying the night for monitering. I hope not but we need to do what we need to do. If that means staying then so be it. I am confident though that the once a week infusion will get us to where we need to be. The doctors lowered is at home persidone dose because of the weekly infusions. God Bless. We have had quit another weekend. I have been having a few dizzy spells. I attribute that to elevator rides at Childrens. I have a very sensitive equalibrium. Nothing an early bedtime won't cure. Please Dear Jesus, let it be just rest I need. LOL. My mother in law has a nasty inner ear infection. Gary is waiting for my snuggles in my bed. My hubby is missing me! LOL

Do we need exams..??Exam make people who can't do well answering questions feel bad.It is some kind of docmentation but our minds are complex and can't be read on some kind of sheets.It creates some kind of status difference.Those who got bad grades will be discriminised as fools and nasty kids.Is it appropiate to call them like that..??Those who do well in exams will not surely be successfull in their field work.Because most of them will stammer and fright to death because they only acquired theory in class not skills
Should the grades be published..??It is some kind of honor for some people and humiliation for a lot of people.Nowadays, parents urge their kids to study well...making them to go to tution...hey parents..what's if..they have intrests in something else..??For example, they like to do some motor racing.That does not make them "mat rempit"
..what if, the money you spend in tution were spend on sending them to a professional rider class....if it existed. i don't know..Why keep forcing us to do things that we dont like because in the end we will rebel and the cosquencess fall to both sides, the parents and the kid.

Avoid Sugar when You're Trying to Lose or Maintain Weight
In this age where you can find temping food on practically every corner, staying trim can be a struggle. In fact, struggle is an understatement. Losing weight or maintaining a healthy weight is a constant battle against sweet temptation.
Our bodies have a love-hate relationship with sugars. (Or, more accurately, we may love to consume it, but hate some of the results.) Glucose, a simple sugar that is an important energy source for living organisms and a component of many carbohydrates, is an important ingredient in keeping our bodies functioning properly. Another simple sugar, fructose, however, can be a major culprit in weight-gain.
Fructose is linked with weight-gain because it can cause insulin-resistance in the body. The body produces insulin, which is an important hormone that regulates the body's metabolism, giving us energy. Another one of its important functions is to dispose of the glucose once it becomes toxic. When you consume too much fructose, your body can become resistant to insulin. This raises your risk for type 2 diabetes and can contribute to weight-gain.
To make matters worse, fructose makes the body resistant to another important hormone—leptin. Leptin is a hormone that is secreted by fat cells. It is responsible for giving the brain a heads-up if the body requires more fat. The brain will know when your body has had enough fat by registering that there's an excess of leptin. This triggers your brain to stop you from being hungry, preventing you from eating more. But thanks to fructose, this process won't be effective in your leptin-resistant body. Once you leptin is compromised, good luck eating the "just the right" amount.
Glucose can satiate your hunger, but fructose can dull your hunger receptors. Here's another clear difference between glucose and fructose. Let's look at beverages as examples. Drinks that contain glucose can make you feel less hungry. But can you guess what fructose-containing drinks do to you? That's right—they can make you feel even hungrier, which of course puts you at risk of weight-gain.
Make it a point to pay attention to what you eat. You don't have to be an expert. Just being aware of what is good and bad for your body.
