KONSULTASI & PEMESANAN HUBUNGI : firstname.lastname@example.com / SMS / WhatsApp +628132873402 / BBM 5F31BC23 (dr.Andrey) CONSULTATION & BUYING
Human ageing entails multiple changes at different levels. Some, like wrinkles or grey hair, are more visible than others. Age-related changes also make themselves felt at the functional and physiological level. By and large, most functions begin to decline linearly after reaching peak performance in the third decade of life. It is common knowledge that the ability of adults to perform physical tasks declines with age. Due to loss of muscle and bone mass, ageing is also characterized by weight loss. Though there is considerable individual variability and no two people age alike, other physiological and functional hallmarks of ageing include a gradual reduction in height, a lower metabolic rate, longer reaction times and decreased sexual activity. In women, menopause or reproductive senescence is an inevitable consequence of old age. Functional declines in kidney, pulmonary and immune functions are also frequent. A major concern of older adults is mental health since memory and cognitive impairment are associated with human ageing even in the absence of disease.
Although not all physiological changes lead to pathology, ultimately functional and physiological changes render people more susceptible to a number of diseases. Ageing has been defined as an intrinsic, inevitable and irreversible age-related process of loss of viability and increase in vulnerability. Practically any system, tissue or organ can fail because of ageing. The heart, a critical organ with little room for error or rest, is the organ that most often fails. For people over the age of 85, diseases of the heart are the major cause of death, responsible for almost 40 per cent of all deaths, followed by cancer, cerebrovascular diseases, neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, infectious diseases and diabetes.
- Research of The Ageing Process & The Effect on The Skin
- Characteristic and proses ageing
Aging is the progressive accumulation of changes with time associated with or responsible for the ever-increasing susceptibility to disease and death which accompanies advancing age. These time-related changes are attributed to the aging process. This process may be common to all living things, for the phenomenon of aging and death is universal. If so, both aging and the rate of the aging process are under genetic control to some extent for the manifestations of aging, and life span differs between species and individual members of a species. Further, like all chemicals and chemical reactions, the manifestations of aging-which reflect chemical composition-and the rate of the aging process should be subject to environmental influences.
Aging and death of single cells then can be viewed as being due to the aging process, the changes with time and their rates of production being under genetic control but subject to modification by the environment, with death ensuing when one or more activities vital to the cell are depressed below some critical level. Similarly, aging at the multicellular level may be considered the result of the aging processes proceeding in all the cells, with environmental influences now including the effects of the aging cells on each other and the changes with time of the connective tissues. Death of multicellular life occurs because of death or dysfunction, or both, of cells involved in functions vital to the cells as a whole (e.g., functions in mammals such as those of the respiratory center or of the myocardium).
The nature of the aging process has been the subject of considerable speculation (1). Suggested possibilities include (i) encodement of aging in DNA (made manifest in a manner similar to development), (ii) progressive breakdown in accuracy in protein synthesis, (iii) crosslinkage of macromolecules, (iv) in higher organisms, "attack" of the immune system on self-antigens, and (v) free radical reaction damage. This paper is mainly limited to a discussion of the last-named possibility not only because accumulating evidence indicates that aging is largely due to free radical reaction damage but also because it shows promise of serving as a useful guide in the search for practical means of further increasing the healthy human life span.
The free radical theory of aging assumes that there is a single basic cause of aging, modified by genetic and environmental factors, and postulates that free radical reactions are involved in aging and age-related disorders. These reactions arise upon exposure to ionizing radiation, from nonenzymatic reactions, and from enzymatic reactions, particularly those of the two major energy-gaining processes employed by living things-photosynthesis and the reduction of O2 to water. They probably also arise as well in the reduction of some terminal electron acceptors employed by anaerobes: probably with NO3, possibly with CO2, and maybe with SO-. Although this theory is applicable to all life, the following comments are directed largely to mammalian aging, in which O2 is the main source of damaging free radical reactions, because of the importance attached to slowing the aging process in man.
- Intrinsic and Extrinsic Ageing
The mechanisms of skin aging classically have been divided into 2 groups: intrinsic aging, which is the natural or chronologic aging of skin, and extrinsic aging, which is influenced by physical and chemical factors. When discussing extrinsic facial aging in particular, solar radiation is the major contributor because of the extensive cumulative exposure to UV radiation over one's lifetime. However, intrinsic or natural mechanisms also play a role in the way an individual ages, and both intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms share molecular pathways. In this article, we will review several different aspects of facial aging with a focus on the mechanisms of skin aging. There are multiple theories on the mechanisms of skin aging, which include oxidative stress, loss of telomeres, mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), and hormonal changes. In addition to the epidermis and dermis, changes to the subcutaneous fat, muscle, and bone of the face also contribute to an aged appearance.
- Intrinsic skin ageing factors
- Ethnicity
The greatest effect of ethnicity on ageing is primarily related to differences in pigmentation. High levels of pigmentation are protective with regard to the cumulative effects of photoageing, with African-Americans showing little cutaneous difference between exposed and unexposed sites. In addition, if sensitivity is measured in terms of skin cancer incidence, skin cancer rates between Caucasian and African-Americans indicate that pigmentation provides a 500-fold level of protection from UV radiation. Basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma occur almost exclusively on sun-exposed skin of light-skinned people.
African-American skin is more compacted than Caucasian skin, as well as having a higher intercellular lipid content, which may contribute to more resistance to ageing. Wrinkling in Asians has been documented to occur later and with less severity than in Caucasians, although the reason for these observations was not explored.
- Anatomical variations
Huge variations in some skin parameters have been observed with respect to the body site studied, underscoring a need to standardize study site as well as ages compared in order to obtain meaningful results. There are large differences in skin thickness with respect to body site, ranging from < 0.5 mm on the eyelids to more than 6 mm on the soles of the feet. The decrease in epidermal thickness with ageing was found to be smaller at the temple than at the volar forearm, which may be the effect of cumulative photoageing. The lipid composition of human stratum corneum displays striking regional variation in both content and compositional profile. There is a much higher proportion of sphingolipids and cholesterol in palmoplantar stratum corneum than on extensor surfaces of the extremities, abdominal or facial stratum corneum. There is also an inverse relationship between the lipid weight percentage of a particular body site and its permeability .
- Hormonal changes in cutaneous tissues
The topic of hormonal changes in skin, primarily the effect of changes of oestrogen levels in the skin of women, has been reviewed recently and comprehensively by many competent authors and will therefore not be covered here, although we have addressed this topic in other publications. Vulvar skin, however, differs from that of the bulk of cutaneous epithelium in that skin in the vulvar area derives from three different embryonic layers. The cutaneous epithelia of the mons pubis, labia and clitoris originate from the embryonic ectoderm and exhibit a keratinized, stratified structure similar to the keratinized, stratified skin at other sites. The mucosa of the vulvar vestibule originates from the embryonic ectoderm and is non-keratinized. The vagina is derived from the embryonic mesoderm and is responsive to oestrogen cycling. The morphology and the physiology of the vulva and vagina thus undergo numerous specific changes associated with hormonal changes at menopause.
- Extrinsic skin ageing factors
- Lifestyle influence
Skin is affected by ambient conditions such as temperature and humidity. An increase in skin temperature of 7–8 doubles the evaporative water loss. Low temperature stiffens skin and decreases evaporative water loss even with plenty of humidity in air, as structural proteins and lipids in the skin are critically dependent on temperature for appropriate conformation. Some medications affect the skin as well, particularly hypocholesterolemic drugs, which may induce abnormal increased desquamation. By far, however, the two greatest exogenous factors, both of which exact a heavy toll on skin, are smoking and exposure to UV light.
- Effects of smoking and nicotine
Cigarette smoking is strongly associated with elastosis in both sexes, and telangiectasia (red spots on skin) in men. Smoking causes skin damage primarily by decreasing capillary blood flow to the skin, which, in turn, creates oxygen and nutrient deprivation in cutaneous tissues. It has been shown that those who smoke have fewer collagen and elastin fibres in the dermis, which causes skin to become slack, hardened and less elastic. Smoke causes damage to collagen and elastin in lung tissue and may do so in skin as well. In addition, constriction of the vasculature by nicotine may contribute to wrinkling. A clear dose–response relationship between wrinkling and smoking has been identified, with smoking being a greater contributor to facial wrinkling than even sun exposure. Smoking was demonstrated to be an independent risk factor for premature wrinkling even when age, sun exposure and pigmentation were controlled. In addition, although hormone-replacement therapy was demonstrated to reverse wrinkling, the skin of long-time smokers did not respond. The relative risk for moderate-to-severe wrinkling for current smokers compared to that of life-long non-smokers was 2.57 with a CI of 1.83–3.06 and a P < 0.0005. Wrinkle scores were three times greater in smokers than in non-smokers, with a significant increase in the risk of wrinkles after 10 pack-years. Pack-years are calculated by multiplying the number of packs of cigarettes smoked per day by the number of years the person has smoked. For example, 10 pack-years would define both as smoking one pack a day for 10 years, or two packs a day for 5 years. Smoking also increases free radical formation and is an important risk factor in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma.
- Exposure to UV light (photoageing)
Intrinsic changes occur in all skin as people age, including decreased turnover, chemical clearance, thickness and cellularity, thermoregulation, mechanical protection, immune responsiveness, sensory perception, sweat and sebum production and vascular reactivity. These changes represent a generalized atrophy with few structural alterations up to the age of 50, followed by slow deterioration. In contrast, solar exposure to UV light initiates a flurry of molecular and cellular responses that end with a rapid dynamic disorder.
The effects of sunlight on the skin are profound, and are estimated to account for up to 90% of visible skin ageing, particularly in those without the natural protection associated with higher levels of melanocytes in the skin. Sunlight is composed of three different types of radiation: UVC, UVB and UVA. UVC (100–290 nm) is largely blocked by the ozone layer and has little impact on skin. UVB (290–320 nm) penetrates only into the epidermis and is responsible for the erythema associated with a sunburn. UVA requires 1000-fold higher levels of radiation to cause sunburn, so it was long considered irrelevant to skin damage. It is now known that because it penetrates into the dermis, UVA may be responsible for most of the chronic skin damage associated with photoageing. Sunlight damages skin across a spectrum of physiological processes. UV radiation in the dermis causes a molecular chain reaction which ultimately results in the upregulation, in both dermis and epidermis, of matrix metalloproteinases which stimulate the production of collagenase, gelatinase and stromelysin-1 in both fibroblasts and keratinocytes.
- Ageing and the skin
Skin is the first body part to show the signs of age. Healthy age-related skin changes are inevitable and include thinning, sagging, wrinkling and the appearance of age spots, broken blood vessels and areas of dryness. Unhealthy skin changes, such as skin cancer, are also more common as weage and are usually made worse by exposure to the sun. Many people would like their skin to look as young as possible. Healthy lifestyle choices and good skin care can help you to minimise the signs of both healthy and unhealthy ageing.
Skin is unique in that is the organ that shields the interior of our body from the environment and all types of environmental assaults including solar damage, injury, pollution, and others.
Theory 1 – Oxidative Stress
This theory is more commonly known as the free radical theory of aging. All cells need energy to perform their particular function. This energy is a very "hot" process and uses free radical generation to burn fuel. In this process, extra free radicals are created. These extra free radicals bounce around inside the cell, damaging all cellular structures they contact. Over a lifetime, these free radical "hits" gradually accumulate leading to a physiologic decline in structure and function. We label this decline "aging." Skin cells being metabolically active are subject to the same free radical damage as other cells of the body. In addition, skin cells are damaged by energy packets of solar rays termed photons. Photons are themselves very high-energy particles that are free radicals. Depending on whether the sunscreen chosen is physical or chemical, these solar free radicals can be blocked or neutralized. Antioxidants are helpful because they combine with free radicals and prevent the ongoing cascade of free radical damage. Only about one percent of oral antioxidants reach the skin so topical antioxidants are also critical.
Theory 2 – Inflammation
A certain amount of inflammation is required for health. Through its inflammatory response the body combats infections, clears away damaged tissue and heals sunburn and other oxidative processes. Excess inflammation results in accelerated rates of aging, scarring and destruction of normal tissue architecture. Free radical damage is well-known to trigger excess inflammation. The inflammatory response is elevated in those having higher levels of oxidative stress byproducts. Oleuropein is an anti-inflammatory substance found in the olive tree, Olea europaea. More antiinflammatory activity is contained within the olive leaf than in other parts such as olive oil.
Theory 3 – Glycation
The process of attaching a sugar to a protein is called glycation. Oxidative damage is an intracellular process, i.e. occurs inside the cell whereas glycation is an extracellular process and occurs outside the cell. Glycation occurs in protein-rich tissues that contain large amounts of the protein collagen. Collagen-rich tissues include the skin, blood vessels, joints and lens of the eye. Glycated collagen is damaged collagen and less able to respond to physical stress by stretching. Glycated collagen has much less deformability and resilience.
Theory 4 – DNA Damage
DNA is contained in the helical structure inside chromosomes in the nucleus of the cell. This DNA contains our genetic material and also directs the function of the cell in which it resides. A cell with damaged DNA cannot properly function and may even become cancerous. Increased DNA damage in skin occurs with photoaging and high oxidative stress. Not as much DNA damage is found with glycation because DNA is protected from glycation within the cell. Most glycation occurs extracellularly.
- Degenerative Disorders Caused by Ageing
Aging is the primary risk factor for the majority of neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD). There are almost 40 million people aged 65+ in the United States. Statistics predict that if you reach age 65 you can expect to live almost 20 more years. The average age of onset of PD is 60 years. If you are 85 years of age, you have an almost 50% risk of developing AD. The population of persons 85+ is projected to increase from 4.2 million in the year 2000 to 6.6 million in the year 2020. This suggests that these neurodegenerative diseases will reach a prevalence of epidemic proportions. The current dogma holds that cellular mechanisms that are associated with aging and those that are related to neuron degeneration in PD and AD are unrelated. However, more recent evidence suggests that normal aging and the degeneration of specific neuron populations in AD or PD may be linked by the same cellular mechanisms.
The degenerative diseases associated with aging include cancer, cardiovascular disease, immune-system decline, brain dysfunction, and cataracts. The functional degeneration of somatic cells during aging appears, in good part, to contribute to these diseases. The relationship between cancer and age in various
mammalian species illustrates this point. Cancer increases with about the fifth
power of age in both short-lived species, such as rats, and long-lived species, such
as humans. Thus a marked decrease in age-specific cancer rates has accompanied the marked increase in lifespan that has occurred in 60 million years of mammalian evolution; i.e., cancer rates are high in a 2-year-old rat, but low in a
2-year-old human. One important factor in longevity appears to be basal metabolic rate, which is about 7 times higher in a rat than in a human and which could markedly affect the level of endogenous oxidants and other mutagens produced as by-products of metabolism. The level of oxidative DNA d amage appears to be roughly related to metabolic rate in a number of mammalian species.
- Research Corrective or Active Skincare Products
After the discussion about aging and the occurrence, it turns out the aging process can be prevented using the type of corrective products and treatment with radio frequency.

As a result, these wringkles are reduced gradually and naturallyafter the few sessions.
- Research Radio Frequency Treatment
Treatment with the latest technology is a promising face look more toned without having to go through surgery though. In contrast with Botox, Radio Frequency RF or commonly abbreviated does not require injections at all. On the Radio Frequency treatment, the skin is heated to 40 degrees and the heat is expected to be able to stimulate the formation of collagen under the skin. Now the formation of collagen under the skin is able to make the face feels tighter. In addition to stimulating collagen formation, heat of RF devices also were able to burn fat, This is why RF also can be used all over the body for slimming. However, not only in a one-time treatment. Should be repeated once a week within 4-8 times depending on the desired area of treatment.
Treatment On Face
If it could face up to four times while the body can be up to 8 times the treatment for optimal results, the period of 2 weeks. With the stimulation of collagen formation of Radio Frequency treatment, the wrinkles will be obscured. Not only that, cheek area could also be made more gaunt with tmenggunakan tool that delivers Multipolar Radio Frequency and Magnetic pulses to the skin. In particular, this frequency radio is designed as the latest antiaging treatments that can also produce skin that feels more supple and younger looking. After treatment is completed, the patient was immediately able to see a change in the desired area of the face. To show changes in patients, we usually do the treatment on one side first so that it can be compared the difference. Will be directly visible firming skin and face look more gaunt. In total, these changes can be directly visible to 60% for Radio Frequency treatment of this.
In the Body Care
For areas of the body, treatment of Radio Frequency can be done in the area of the abdomen, thighs, and arms. This treatment can be used for skin that has been slack and stretch marks or cellulite scars. RF treatment can help reduce the appearance of stretch marks like. It is not 100%, but seen no improvement there. If the area of the arm can be made much faster. With the burning of fat, what does it mean body weight was also reduced? Automatic yes, but it is not significant. Surely this must collaborate with diet and exercise routine so that the result is more optimal. Fat burning with this treatment is only done on the fat that is close to the skin surface. So, if it is not accompanied by additional exercise, the result would look tight course, but not optimal. For the abdominal area, this treatment can be done to tighten the area. However, there must be a repetition, when once it is not too visible results. Abdominal circumference can be reduced 2-3 centimeters with repetition of treatment up to 8 times.
Treatment Procedures
Before the treatment is done, the target area will be cleaned first. For example, areas of the face with a facial cleanser. Then to overcome not comfortable, patients will also be anaesthetized topical for half an hour before the RF. Furthermore, the action was carried out using a special tool with a tip that is designed to stimulate the production of collagen. Once completed, the area will be immediately cleaned from the remnants of treatment. How long this will last? The duration of action will depend on the intended area. For facial area usually takes for half an hour. If for the agency can take 1-2 hours depending on the area that will be taken. Securities to be received by the patient usually only redness that will last approximately one hour. Redness effect is caused because there is a heating process is done. However, nobody really the pain of this treatment, will only feel warm just in the skin. After that the patient can go as usual.
The recommended age
Actually RF is safe to do so since the age of 20 years and up to 60 years. However, there are some conditions that are not allowed to do this treatment, such as pregnant and lactating. Prior to treatment the RF, will be given in advance to inform the patient concerned. We will explain in advance about the procedure to be performed and also about the possible effects that will result afterwards. Given Radio Frequency is indeed focused on the formation of collagen with a tightening effect on the skin, in fact it will also affect the results of the face will look brighter.

Last offseason, while the Deflategate saga was playing out in court, Tom Brady went radio silent. He rarely spoke with reporters, instead opting to communicate with fans on social media. When Brady announced he was dropping his appeal, he posted a message on Facebook, bypassing the middle man.
That's quite a difference from this year. Brady is embarking on a post-Super Bowl media tour, appearing on Pro Football Talk Live this week and participating in a series of interviews with the MMQB's Peter King. In the second portion of his sit-down with King, the conversation centers around Brady's exhaustive and unorthodox training methods. At this stage in his career, it's apparent Brady is playing for more than his sixth Super Bowl ring. He's playing to validate his lifestyle –– avocado ice cream and all.
Perhaps the most remarkable aspect of Brady's game is his durability. He's played in 141 of the 145 Patriots contests from 2009-2016, only missing time to serve his four-game Deflategate suspension. Unlike most of his peers, Brady doesn't lift heavy weights. Instead, he focuses on strengthening his core and flexibility. He says he believes this kind of training allows him to withstand punishment on the field.
"How do you work on durability? That's what I've figured out," he told King. "I know how to be durable. It's hard for me to get hurt, knock on wood. Anything can happen in football. But I want to put myself in a position to be able to withstand the car crash before I get in the car crash. I don't want to go in there and say, 'Oh God, I know this muscle is really tight and ready to go, let's see if it can hold up to someone falling on me who is 300 pounds.' Then someone lands on you, and a rotator cuff tears. I could have told you that was probably going to happen. It's going to be really hard for me to have a muscle injury, based off the health of my muscle tissue and the way that I try to take care of it."
Brady seems to think he can cheat football mortality. He says he wants to play until he's 45, and after watching him lead the Patriots to their fifth Super Bowl title last season, it doesn't appear all that crazy. At 39 years old, he led the AFC in QB rating among starting quarterbacks (112.2) and looks to be in better shape than ever. This was personified in Super Bowl LI, when Brady completed 21-of-27 passes in the fourth quarter and overtime to lead the Patriots on a historic 25-point comeback win over the Falcons. Despite taking 99 snaps, the most of his career, Brady seemed as fresh as he did during the first week of training camp.
It's clear that Brady attributes this success to the work of his training guru, Alex Guerrero. In the second half of his interview with King, he makes it a point to expound on his physical and mental training regimen. He also references his favorite book, "The Four Agreements," which stresses the importance of not taking things personally. This zen-like mindset probably explains why Brady never publicly rebuked Roger Goodell during the entire Deflategate saga. Apparently free of hostility, he enacted the ultimate revenge on Goodell last season, when the commissioner was forced to hand him his fourth Super Bowl MVP trophy.
In today's politically polarized world, many athletes are speaking out on social issues. LeBron James is the trailblazer for this phenomenon, taking strong stands against gun violence, police brutality and campaigning with Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton. Brady, meanwhile, shies away from social commentary. He says he's singularly focused on football, dedicating his time and energy to disproving everything we think we know about how the human body ages.
The longer Brady plays, the more legitimate his meticulous lifestyle appears. It's easy to laugh when you first hear about his refusal to eat tomatoes or insistence on almost only eating raw food in the summer. But evidently, it's working for him. Now it's about getting the message out.
Brady doesn't have any use for discussing his friendship with Donald Trump or rehashing Deflategate. But when the topic turns to his lifestyle, from nutrition to training, he can't seem to stop talking.
When Brady retires from football, he probably won't head into the broadcast booth or take a cushy front office position. Instead, it seems likely he'll dedicate his life to peddling the TB12 brand. The push is already starting.

|Ship: Disney Fantasy
|Stateroom: 8172
|Condition: 5
|Deck: 8
|Category: 8C
|Location: Aft
|Sail Date: 08/18/12
Notes: This cabin was awesome! We also had the adjoining 8172. This cabin slept 5 - queen bed, convertible sofa to twin, murphy bed (twin) and upper pull down berth (twin). Window was great and huge! Plenty of room here. Love the curtain that separated the sleeping quarters. Tons of storage. We had 3 adults and 2 kids between the two rooms (8174 slept 4 - no upper berth). Felt like a huge suite. Even though it was aft, it was close to the elevators, not far from the laundry and very quiet. No running kids around us. Couldn't hear anyone outside the room. Never had to wait long for the elevators. Very convenient to Cabanas on deck 11. Kids slept late so I'd go up and bring food to the room (more variety than room service). I had to write because there are no reviews anywhere about this cabin and I was happy to see it slept 5 (though we never needed it to). Hair dryer works great AS LONG AS you plug in the correct outlet at the desk (mirror in front of it). There are two plugs - if you put in wrong one, it doesn't have much power. Other is terrific.

Project Description
I created a minor schematic in Express SCH and need a gerber file. My goal is to create PCB that has a 15 second timer with a siren alarm. When the 15 second timer expires, the siren alarm is activated. In order to deactivate the 15 second timer, you press either of the 3 SPST connections. I need those 2 SPST connections to have 1-foot wire and the final connection to have (1) 3-foot wire. Schematic and bit map attached. I don't have alot of time to work on this and if this is good, I have more work coming down the line.. I need this by 10/31... Please follow-up with me daily on design.
So I seek someone that can help me work on this. I will provide you with the current design and a list of updates and components that I want to use, and your job is to fix it.
Kind Regards

New marinas approved in Chicago
Great news as the City Council has approved two new marinas totaling more than 1000 slips.
One will be adjacent to Navy Pier (right downtown), will reserve significant space for transient boaters, and construction is expected to start in about 4 months.
The other will be at 31st street which is still pretty close to downtown. The design is done, but I don't know when construction will begin.
I think that one of the most important aspects of the new marinas will be the transient space. Chicago is a great place for daytrips and this will encourage more visitors from other marinas in the Great Lakes!
It's nice to have some good news for a change!
That is good news! The stunt Mayor Daley pulled w.r.t. to Meigs airfield was such an outrage in the general aviation community, hopefully there won't be any dirty tricks down the line with regard to boating.
From Wikipedia . . .
In 2001, a compromise was reached between Chicago, the State of Illinois, and others to keep the airport open for the next twenty-five years. However, the federal legislation component of the deal did not pass the United States Senate. In a controversial move on March 30, 2003, Mayor Daley ordered private crews to destroy the runway in the middle of the night, bulldozing large X-shaped gouges into the runway surface.[7] The required notice was not given to the Federal Aviation Administration or the owners of airplanes tied down at the field, and as a result sixteen planes were left stranded at an airport with no operating runway, and an incoming flight was diverted. The stranded aircraft were later allowed to depart from Meigs' 3,000 foot (914 m) taxiway.[8]

The Luxury Visionaries 2016
I've pretty much decided that the coolest new car your money can buy right now is a Rolls-Royce... the Wraith really is something very special
"Effortless cool". You hear it all the time and it usually drives me mad. It is the most appalling tautology. If something can be described as "cool" then it must necessarily have achieved that status without apparent effort. Writer Charles Shaar Murray best defined cool – "that which expends no energy on its own definition" — inevitably, in describing Keith Richards. You don't act cool, you are cool (and you don't get to decide, either).
I mention this only because I've pretty much decided that the coolest new car your money can buy right now is a Rolls-Royce, a crazy-looking two door, two tonne, 624bhp Roller at that. Hardly effortless, but the Wraith really is something very special. And utterly apparently effortless, despite the work of that vast V12 engine.
This truth struck me last weekend when, maybe a little giddy with the heat and blinded by the early evening golden light I took a look around Rolls-Royce's first "summer studio", right on the port in beautiful, fancy-as-hell Porto Cervo. Rolls took up residence on the Costa Smeralda around a month ago, but the official season only opened there last weekend as the little port prepared first for the big boats from the Gulf to steam in once Ramadan was over and then, later in August, for the Russian boats to arrive as has become traditional. Until now it's just been the old-school wealth, the families who've rocked up in the north east of Sardinia since the Aga Khan first led the charge in the 1960s.
The summer studio – as far as I know a first in the automotive biz – is a typically progressive idea from a company you may know I've come to see as the most progressive at the luxury end of the market. The studio is whatever the folks of Porto Cervo want to make it: coffee shop, lounge, club, meet-up. Conversations around Rolls-Royce cars and test drives are strictly optional. There is a series of partners with global and local connections involved in the project. The studio itself is fitted out with Fendi furniture finished in Rolls-Royce hides and the default tipple is Dom Pérignon (served with sustainable caviar from Calvisius). Milan-based holiday rental and charter operator Dream & Charme brings local knowledge and locally-sourced artworks. Along with Rolls, all of the partners will host events across the summer.
"The idea," says Isobel Dando, general manager, sales channel development, "is to take our cars to meet our customers, and meet them when they are furthest away from any of the pressures associated with their working lives. We don't want to add to those in any way. We want the whole experience to be as relaxing and effortless as possible. Everyone is welcome at any time – we're open well in to the evening. And there's absolutely no dress code. People are on holiday!"
There really is no pressure. No cars are sold from the summer studio, indeed no cars can be (orders are processed via the global dealer network). But all the materials are there to get a long way down the traditional purchase process. Currently there's a Phantom Drophead (the rare, collectable and sold-out "Waterspeed" special), a Ghost and, of course a Wraith. All are available to test drive at any time and in the first month over 4,000 people have come by and engaged. Importantly for Rolls-Royce, nearly 90 per cent of those visitors have had no prior experience of post-2003, BMW-era "Goodwood Rolls-Royce".
The elegant Nicholas Grimshaw factory on Lord March's Goodwood estate is of course the mother ship to the summer studio and Rolls-Royce expects at least one in three of its customers to come to Sussex during the commissioning of their car. There are a range of hides, trims and colours on show in Porto Cervo, but the R-R message is that it can make your car as personal to you as humanly possible and that ideally means a visit to Goodwood. This is a very different process from "personalisation" based on a matrix of add-ons and colours and decals, a process BMW's other UK outpost Mini pretty much owns and is absolutely key to the success of the Rolls-Royce business, which last week announced a 33 per cent jump in sales, including a 60 per cent increase in the European markets.
The first six months put Rolls-Royce on target to sell over 4,000 cars for the first time this year (up from 3,630 in 2013). It's a significant rise for a company that regards "growth" as just one more car each year. The Wraith is one key to that growth, taking the company into younger (significantly younger — 20 year-olds are buying Wraiths) markets.
But it's also indicative of Rolls Royce's uncanny grip on the endless mutability of luxury. The easy vibe of the summer studio and the iconoclasm Wraith are part of a bigger movement, possibly the same shift that metaphorically pulled the white linen off the tables at Marcus Wareing's Berkeley Hotel, London residence. There will be more studios on the scale of Porto Cervo (as well as the more familiar pop-up events that don't require such an investment in bricks and mortar), and more cars like the Wraith. Once you've achieved this level of cool, it's really quite hard to lose it. Just ask Keith.

A1 The Things We Never Did Lyrics
Last updated: 08/20/2001 03:59:45 AM
You and me, we sit and talk of friendship then I ask.
If you can see, if we could be together forever.
I see the light die in your eyes
Coz you're scared you'll hurt.
So you don't wanna try.
Well take a chance and come home with me, you could stay for eternity.
If you try then at least you'll see
Then you'll never regret the things we never did.
You turn to me, I see your eyes.
And somehow they cease to shine, you smile at me yet I can see.
You don't think we can make it
You see the light die in my eyes.
Coz I'm scared to lose you, I wish you would try.
I see the light die in your eyes
Cos you're scared you'll hurt.
So you don't want to try.
[Chorus: Repeat Till End]
Thanks to via/ firstname.lastname@example.com for submitting The Things We Never Did Lyrics.

New London - Nancy Paetzell worked her whole life and thought she would be able to live off Social Security in her retirement years.
But in tears Tuesday afternoon, she told U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., that she is barely surviving on her $1,230 monthly Social Security check. She pays $825 in rent and tries to save $50 a week. But by month's end, she has cleaned out her savings account to pay bills. She is eligible for $15 a month in food stamps and receives help with heating costs through the federally funded Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program.
"When I was growing up, you were told you'd have Social Security to take care of you," said the 77-year-old Norwich resident, who is receiving on-the-job training at Thames Valley Council for Community Action in the hopes of landing an office job to make ends meet. "How come I'm so poor? I'm poorer than I've every been in my life. I can't pay my bills. I never wanted to be so poor."
Paetzell was one of four people directly affected by the automatic federal spending cuts known as sequestration who told their stories to Murphy during a visit to the TVCCA office.
She told Murphy that cuts made in Washington are felt the hardest by the poor and the working poor.
"My parents told me stories of what they had to do to survive during the Depression," she said. "It's nice to use the word recession, but I think this is similar to the Great Depression."
Murphy was in town gathering information on the affects on Connecticut residents of cuts made in Washington. He said he will bring the stories of struggling residents back to the Capitol, where members of the House and Senate will begin reviewing the budget.
Murphy said he will lobby to stop more cuts, especially to LIHEAP, which was cut by 5 percent last year and will be cut by 5 percent in each of the next 9 years. The $5 billion program will be reduced to about $2.5 billion.
Two years ago, Connecticut received $125 million in energy assistance. In 10 years, the amount will be about $76 million, Murphy said.
"It's not enough," he said. "Americans won't allow people to freeze to death in their own homes."
As the funding goes down, the need for heating assistance is going up, according to TVCCA. Two years ago, the local TVCCA, which serves communities in southeastern Connecticut, had 8,500 applications for energy assistance. Last year, the number was 9,500.
Lee Carenza, who is in charge of the program for TVCCA, said he expects to get more than 10,000 applications this year. The program awards grants of up to $585 to help pay for heating bills for income-eligible families. Two years ago, the highest grant was $900, he said.
Deborah Monahan, executive director of TVCCA, said people who are working full time come into the office in tears looking for help and saying they have nowhere else to go.
Wayne Lee, a retired Minneapolis police officer who works for the state Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services and Sound Community Services, told Murphy he needs the energy assistance. He is recovering from a stroke, is still paying off student loans from 20 years ago and sleeps in a sleeping bag in the winter because it's warmer. His grant for energy assistance has been cut from $700 to $300.
Sue Hostnik, who works full-time for United Community & Family Services, said she is living paycheck to paycheck raising her three children, ages 8, 15 and 16. She said she counts on the energy grant, which dropped from $700 to $300, to pay her winter heating bills.
"My heat won't get shut off, but in May, I have to pay what I owe," she said. "I tell the kids, 'Get out the sweatshirts and the extra blankets.'"
Murphy said his counterparts in Washington "need to understand that even working full time, people can't pay their bills in Connecticut."
"We will win this fight eventually," Murphy assured the group.

I am tired of the world," according to Reuters and other news stories now hitting the wires. The Akihabara district is known to gadget lovers the world over as Japan's gizmodic heart. Today, though, a 25-year-old man named Tomohiro Kato allegedly drove his rented van into a crowd of people, then jumped out stabbing more people, including those he'd already hit with the vehicle. Reuters says that among the reported dead were six men aged 19 to 74—one who may have died from a heart attack—as well as a 21-year-old woman.

Let's say you're the sports world's next great owner-innovator. You identify a franchise in a comparatively healthy market you're certain is a sleeping giant. This turnaround won't be easy. It will require a lot of innovation, sweat, persistence, political gamesmanship, investment and a couple hundred million dollars in debt financing, which you'll have to raise.
This reclamation project has a lot of moving parts, but it's doable -- and you are the person put on this earth to make it happen.
When the process is over, all your hard work has paid off. The team plays in a new, privately financed jewel box in the heart of downtown. The fan experience is infinitely more fun and compelling. Money, managed by the smartest and best-compensated people hand-chosen by you, is spent on a premium roster built to play into late spring every season.
Because the product is so much better thanks to your management and commitment, new revenue streams emerge and the existing ones grow more profitable. Demand for tickets skyrockets, which means there's now a lot more money at the gate. Sponsors are knocking at the door of your sales team because they want to get in on all the fun. Local broadcasters have taken notice and want to ink a lucrative deal with the team.
While you've been toiling away on your multi-year makeover, a rival owner in your division has done nothing to better his franchise over the past decade. It's not the most profitable of markets, but he's done very little to maximize his few assets. Truth be told, he's only in this market because the city lured him with a cheap arena deal on a publicly-funded facility. Thinking only of the short-term benefits rather than the long-term prospects of the market, the owner began to hemorrhage money after a few years, and now he's pleading poverty. How can he possibly compete at such a disadvantage? Look at the money he's losing.
You appreciate the cooperative nature of leagues -- but isn't cooperation a two-way street? Every franchise may not be on equal footing, but doesn't each ownership group have the responsibility to the other 29 to invest wisely and find smart ways to make this enterprise work? That's what a cooperative is, but your rival owner seems to answer the call only when the Board of Governor's planning committee meets and it's time to talk redistribution.
By instituting revenue sharing, we're telling you to fork over large sums of money to this guy. It doesn't matter that he assumed none of the risk and performed none of the hard work you did. In fact, it's precisely because he sat on his tuchus while you poured everything into building a laughingstock into a model franchise that you must now cut him a check.
And even though he's receiving a healthy bundle of your money, you have no right to tell him how to spend it, beyond setting a payroll floor. He's free to mismanage that cash to his heart's content, at least until he writes up an offer sheet for the dynamic All-Star point guard you snagged with the No. 18 pick -- using your money as bait, of course.
Since you're essentially sentenced to underwrite the losses of this team every season, you've taken an interest in what you ironically call your "investment." (In fact, your rival's team is referred to in your franchise's executive offices not by its official nickname, but only as "The Investments.")
After a hard look, you've determined it would take a perfect confluence of luck and intelligence to break even in this market -- and that's only if ownership was competent. Still, no one will entertain a serious discussion about the possibility of dissolving this team that everyone agrees isn't viable unless you subsidize it. The worse it gets for this franchise and its market, the louder the call for you to transfer even more of the money you generated from the master plan you executed beautifully.
One day, another NBA franchise is on the block. It's a real mess, but with some creativity and risk -- along the lines of what you applied -- it can eventually be a juggernaut. The league calls to see if you know any parties who'd be interested in buying. You're an innovator, so you've probably encountered people who you share common interests, passions and success.
You know the perfect investor, someone who'd make a super 21st Century owner.
But if the best-case scenario is all giving away a fat chunk of hard-won profits, can you really, in good conscience, recommend the deal?

I was told once that Speed Disk arranges data by frequency of use versus Degrag wich doesn't.
Just repaeating what I was told and not sure it is factual.
I'm running XP Home (SP2). I recently bought Norton System Works Premier 2005. When I run Speed Disk on my NTSF Boot drive, then check it with XP's Disk Defrag analyser, the analyser shows the worst fragmentation I ever seen and says the disk needs to be defragged. Has anyone else encountered this?
I submitted a question about it to Norton's tech support 5 days ago. I got an e-mail saying someone would contact me within 24 hours, but I haven't heard another word since.
I've run into a few other quirks with Speed Disk that I'd like to discuss, but will hold off until getting some feedback on this one.

Epidemiology is an inherently multidisciplinary, translational field of study that examines the distribution and determinants of disease in the population. Although its basic building blocks of prevalence, incidence, and risk factors are widely acknowledged, its role in clinical and translational research is less well appreciated and utilized. Epidemiology can contribute to guiding clinical trials design, to validating diagnostic criteria and biomarkers, to identifying - at the population level - signals of potential disease mechanisms to be investigated at the clinical and laboratory levels. The Candidate is a seasoned psychiatrist and neuroepidemiologist. This K07 Leadership Award in Aging will allow her to develop a new program at the University of Pittsburgh in the epidemiology of brain and behavior in aging. Specifically, 3 groups of activities are proposed: (1) A multi-level curriculum in Aging Brain-Behavior Epidemiology, with several classes and seminars targeting clinical residents and fellows, psychology interns, postdoctoral scholars, and faculty in neurology, psychiatry, geriatric medicine, psychology, and epidemiology, building on and expanding currently available educational offerings. (2) A multidisciplinary Research Forum on Cancer and Neurodegeneration, based on intriguing epidemiologic evidence of an inverse relationship between neurodegeneration and certain cancers. This Forum will bring together researchers from clinical, basic, and translational neuroscience, neuroepidemiologists, oncologists, cancer epidemiologists, geneticists, immunologists, and related disciplines, to review and discuss emerging science, generate innovative hypotheses leading to pilot studies, and collaborative research. (3) A range of Research Practice offering mentored research opportunities to early stage investigators, including (i) a novel study of cognitive impairment in a cohort of middle-aged women who have been well-characterized for alcohol and cannabis use and followed for 22 years;(ii) secondary analyses of data from the Candidate's four large epidemiologic studies of cognitive impairment and dementia;(iii) pilot studies derived from the forum on cancer and neurodegeneration. This program will also organize conferences to broadly disseminate results of research as well as curricular efforts. Thus, it will introduce educational enhancements and catalyze innovative multidisciplinary translational research with a population perspective. It will not only generate new science but result in the development of a multidisciplinary cadre of investigators who will be equipped with a sound grasp of critical epidemiological principles and methods to inform their research into brain disorders of aging.
This K07 Leadership Award in Aging will allow the Candidate, Dr. Mary Ganguli, to develop a research education and training program in the Epidemiology of Aging Brain and Behavior at the University of Pittsburgh. This program will offer classes and seminars to trainees and faculty across disciplines that study brain disorders (psychiatry, neurology, and neuroscience), provide mentored research opportunities in epidemiology, and also develop a multidisciplinary forum to discuss and study the intriguing relationships between brain degeneration and certain cancers.

Silent Witness star Emilia falls for Marco Pierre White (and the celebrity chef takes her on a date to Carluccio's!)
He is the celebrity chef with many female admirers and she is a celebrated actress with a self-confessed unconventional taste in men. And now, it seems, Marco Pierre White and Emilia Fox have fallen in love.
Last week, fellow diners at an Italian restaurant noticed their public displays of affection.
'They were canoodling,' said an onlooker at Carluccio's in Chiswick, West London. 'They were holding hands and kissing. Marco was caressing her face and they were feeding each other food.
Smitten: Marco Pierre White and Emilia Fox leave a Chiswick restaurant after having lunch together
'They looked like a couple who had just found their first love. They were like a pair of 18-year-olds.'
Silent Witness star Emilia, 38, has only recently parted from peace campaigner Jeremy Gilley, the father of her one-year-old daughter Rose. Meanwhile, Marco, 50, is still married to third wife Mati Conjero, after she called a halt to their divorce proceedings.
'Marco is besotted,' says a friend. 'He is phoning and texting Emilia a lot, and he makes her laugh.
'Emilia jokes about how ironic it is that she has found a chef because she is a terrible cook.
'She loves gardening so Marco has been surprising her with some exotic plants. It's really touched her that he is putting a lot of thought into things.
'Emilia's family are hoping that she has finally found happiness.'
Teenagers: The couple were said to be acting like a pair of 18-year-olds as they ate together
Marco is the latest in a long line of unpredictable romantic choices for the actress. 'I've always had unusual taste in men,' she once admitted. 'I fancied Dustin Hoffman even when he was dressed as a woman in the film Tootsie.'
During her 20s she had a short-lived engagement to comedian Vic Reeves and, at 27, was spotted kissing actor Charles Dance, who is more than 30 years her senior, although they insisted the relationship was platonic.
In 2003, she appeared opposite Jared Harris, son of the late film star Richard Harris, in a stage production of Les Liaisons Dangereuses. The show was a flop, but the pair fell in love and married two years later.
It was hailed as the union of two great acting dynasties but, after Emilia suffered a miscarriage, the couple drifted apart.
Harris, now a star of TV's Mad Men, filed for divorce in 2008.
New-found happiness: The celebrity chef is said to have been a rock for Emilia
Emilia – who shot to fame as a teenager playing Georgiana in Pride & Prejudice – then fell for peace activist Jeremy Gilley, and in 2010 she became pregnant with his child.
Rose was born that November but within a year the couple's relationship was in trouble.
'She was very depressed when she split with Jeremy,' says a source. 'She has known Marco for some years but he has been a rock to her in recent months.
'It has been a godsend for her. Marco is alpha-male, but he is very sweet with her and good with Rose.'
White's love life has been no less turbulent. He was first married, aged 26, to Alex McArthur, with whom he has a daughter, Letitia.
His second marriage, to model Lisa Butcher in 1992, lasted only four months, and he began to see Mati almost immediately.
The couple, who married in 2000, have three children – Luciano, Marco and Mirabelle – but in 2007 Mati initiated divorce proceedings, claiming that her husband had been unfaithful. She has since halted the action but the couple have not been reconciled.
'Emilia is in no doubt that Marco's relationship with Mati is over,' says the source.
'Marco and Milli have bonded over their painful past experiences. They have been friends for years but have been together seriously for only a couple of months.'

Some fathers might baulk if their daughter brought home a married man, but Emilia's parents, actors Edward Fox and Joanna David, are said to approve of the union.
'Marco is the sort of person her father would like,' said the friend. 'Joanna has not been well recently but Marco has been brilliant at supporting Emilia.
'It is early days but she is hopeful he could be the one.'
A spokesman for Emilia declined to comment, while a spokesman for the chef was last night unavailable.

TOLEDO — During the 1978-79 season, senior star Stan Joplin led his Toledo Rockets all the way to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament.
During the 1978-79 season, Dane Fife was a fetus.
Somehow the two coached against each other Wednesday night in UT's Savage Hall. Fife, the youngest NCAA Division I head coach at 26 years, brought his young and inexperienced Indiana-Purdue Fort Wayne to the Glass City and were outmatched by Joplin's more athletic Toledo Rocket squad.
Despite a 14-point deficit, IPFW battled back to within 7 points of the Rockets, but Joplin and the home crowd pulled away to an even 20-point advantage.
And although the IPFW Mastodons out-rebounded UT 39-33, the young 'Dons turned the ball over 31 times. 31. Thirty-one! They had 10 fewer field goals than that.
But I was looking forward to watching Fife coach in action.
When the teams took the court, I initially saw a young guy in a suit come out of the visiting locker room. "That must be Dane Fife," I tell my dad.
Then five more young guys in suits come out. "OK, never mind." Turns out their alpha male was the tallest and blondest of the bunch.
Fife played for the esteemed Indiana Hoosiers, and received a taste of both Bobby Knight's and Mike Davis's tutelage. He took another spoonful of knowledge from Davis as one of his assistant coaches for the past two years, and in March was named IPFW's head coach.
And the young'un did his Bob Knight impression in the second half. Fife was given a technical foul, because you know how kids are these days. No chairs were harmed.
But even though I grew up on UT basketball, I felt for the other team. (Dare I say … cheered?) IPFW is one of 10 D-I teams without a conference affiliation, and of their 28 regular season games, they play more than half — 16 — on the road at places like Michigan State, Purdue, Penn State, Northwestern and Kent State. They also play Notre Dame at home, for some strange reason.
But they're kind of in a conference. They're in a class with all the other vagabond programs. They play 11 games against other conferenceless D-I teams. which means ungodly road trips to:
- Greeley, Colorado (Northern Colorado)
- Corpus Christi, Texas (Texas A&M-Corpus Christi)
- Brookings, South Dakota (South Dakota State University)
- Fargo North Dakota (North Dakota State University … so there's that)
- Edinburg, Texas (Texas-Pan American
- Farmburg, Virginia (Longwood)
Oh, and none of their 13 players is a senior. So they get to travel to all those hot spots again next year!
Godspeed, young Mastodons. And remember: your coach, while he may look like the rest of you, is the tall, blond one in the suit.
