The irony of an Iranian director schooling the United States on humanitarian issues at Sunday night's Oscars is not lost on me. Asghar Farhadi refused to participate when he won the Best Foreign Language Film Oscar for the movie "Salesman." His reason? President Trump's travel ban.
When presenters Charlize Theron and Shirley MacLaine announced the win for "The Salesman" during the 89th annual Academy Awards, Iranian-American engineer Anousheh Ansari accepted the award on Farhadi's behalf.
Here is video.
This is an except from his acceptance speech given by Ansari.
"It's a great honor to be receiving this valuable award for the second time. I would like to thank the members of the Academy, my crew in Iran, my producer Alexandre Mallet-Guy, Cohen Media, Amazon and my fellow nominees in the foreign film category," she said, reading a statement from Farhadi. "I'm sorry I'm not with you tonight. My absence is out of respect for the people of my country and those of other six nations whom have been disrespected by the inhumane law that bans entry of immigrants to the U.S."
"Dividing the world into the us and our enemies categories creates fear. A deceitful justification for aggression and war," she continued. "These wars prevent democracy and human rights in countries which have themselves been victims of aggression. Filmmakers can turn their cameras to capture shared human qualities and break stereotypes of various nationalities and religions. They create empathy between us and others. An empathy which we need today more than ever."
The Hollywood audience applauded with glee after the letter was read. Hearing the Iranian Farhadi call the executive order "inhumane" got the biggest applause. Well, let me tell you a few things. The biggest irony is Farhadi and those in attendance never stand up against inhumane acts against Iranian citizens. Women under Sharia are treated very inhumanely in Iran.
Iran needs a lecture
This director has the nerve to call President Trump's politics inhumane while Iran's political system uses Sharia law. Iranian laws are openly anti-Semitic and anti-Western. Iran, using Sharia law, regularly executes Chrisitans. People who leave the religion are called apostates, and the Koran mandates they be executed. Public executions by hanging are common in Iran. Why doesn't this Iranian director and Hollywood come out against the murder of homosexuals in Iran? There is no such thing as freedom of speech or freedom of religion in Iran, yet Farhadi thinks he has the moral ground to school the United States.
Everyone in the world knows how harsh Iran punishes its people. I won't stand for this Iranian director talking down my Trump or the U.S. because we choose to protect ourselves from terror hot spots with a temporary travel ban. Iran has no record of human rights, and this Iranian director has no right to school Americans on human rights. Fix your own country before you come here to tell us what to do.

The neo-classical, internationally successful ballet has been performed on three individual continents to glowing reviews. The audience is bound to enjoy this riveting performance as the dancers sweep the stage with emotional presence. This bus trip also includes a stop so that guests can enjoy a fine dinner, although this is not included in the cost.
Scheduled for Thursday, September 6, the bus for the excursion leaves at 4:30 pm and will return back to the center at approximately 10:00 pm.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Being a communist would no longer be a fireable offense for California government employees under a bill passed Monday by the state Assembly.
Lawmakers narrowly approved the bill to repeal part of a law enacted during the Red Scare of the 1940s and '50s when fear that communists were trying to infiltrate and overthrow the U.S. government was rampant. The bill now goes to the Senate.
It would eliminate part of the law that allows public employees to be fired for being a member of the Communist Party.
Employees could still be fired for being members of organizations they know advocate for overthrowing the government by force or violence.
The bill updates an outdated provision in state law, said Assemblyman Rob Bonta, the San Francisco Bay Area Democrat who authored the measure.
Some Assembly Republicans said the Cold War-era law should not be changed.
Assemblyman Randy Voepel, a Southern California Republican who fought in the Vietnam War, said communists in North Korea and China are "still a threat."
"This bill is blatantly offensive to all Californians," said Assemblyman Travis Allen, a Republican who represents a coastal district in Southern California. "Communism stands for everything that the United States stands against."
"Vagina kayak" artist Megumi Igarashi found guilty of obscenity.
We've got to seek some new methods, a reappraisal of the situation, some new methods for attacking it or solving it, and a new direction, and new allies. We need allies who are going to help us achieve a victory, not allies who are going to tell us to be nonviolent. If a white man wants to be your ally, what does he think of John Brown? You know what John Brown did? He went to war. He was a white man who went to war against white people to help free slaves. He wasn't nonviolent. White people call John Brown a nut. Go read the history, go read what all of them say about John Brown. They're trying to make it look like he was a nut, a fanatic. They made a movie on it, I saw a movie on the screen one night. Why, I would be afraid to get near John Brown if I go by what other white folks say about him.
But they depict him in this image because he was willing to shed blood to free the slaves. And any white man who is ready and willing to shed blood for your freedom—in the sight of other whites, he's nuts. As long as he wants to come up with some nonviolent action, they go for that, if he's liberal, a nonviolent liberal, a love-everybody liberal. But when it comes time for making the same kind of contribution for your and my freedom that was necessary for them to make for their own freedom, they back out of the situation. So, when you want to know good white folks in history where black people are concerned, go read the history of John Brown.

Trade Liberalization and the Efficiency of Firms in Indian Manufacturing
Has the efficiency of firms in India improved since its liberalization in 1991? The authors attempt to answer this question by analyzing the determinants of firm-level efficiency in six manufacturing sectors in India while focusing on the effects of liberalization and domestic competition. They find that there was an increase in overall efficiency in the post-reform period in India in five out of the six sectors. While imports do not seem to improve efficiency, liberalization did increase efficiency in four of the sectors. Copyright Blackwell Publishing Ltd 2003.

Sunroom again.
They finished the stucco on the outside of the sunroom Thursday. There used to be 3 dilapidated aluminum sliders, cheap white siding, and no insulation in the walls.
Outside of sunroom again.
That window used to be a door. The sidewalk looked misplaced leading into a wall, so I made the curved concrete connector this week, joining sidewalk to patio.
New oven I installed yesterday.
Now that the sunroom is well insulated, we made it part of the main house. We yanked out two big OLD aluminum windows this week, trimmed the openings, and dubbed them pass-throughs. We also removed the door. We really like it this way. The kitchen cabinet top, sink, stove, & vent were last year's projects.

Very nice job! I adore the wall color--I've trying to find something like that, kind of like the skin of a butternut squash. Looks very soothing and relaxing. Hard work paid off!ReplyDelete
Thanks, Autumnforest. Jack has amazing color selection abilities. He does his "color magic" on our entire house. That color is called golden straw.ReplyDelete
Thanks for the tip!ReplyDelete
p.s. My word verification was
"undedh" which is pretty good for a horror lover!
I love it. It really works well. That color choice on the stucco helps tie in the bricks without either having to brick over the new section or making it look like an "add on". Hopefully, we will be able to visit you later this Spring. Ay, but the weather can be fickle. If Spring proper doesn't come soon, I'm looking for someone I need to sue. :-DReplyDelete
Undedh, very good. Ha.ReplyDelete
Would love to see you guys, Cullan. Yesterday was raw here, but today promises 60's and sun without the wind. Tomorrow, near 70. Tuesday, could it really hit 76? WooHoo!

Looks so inviting. Hope you're able to get outside as much as possible. There's nothing like being out in nature.ReplyDelete

So I applied to this scholarship program for three weeks in the summer, and I got accepted. I am currently staying a Rowan College and I'm having an amazing time so far. I feel really challenged and like I'm sorta in college right now. I'm happy to be away home and the food is amazing.
The people here are amazing. I only came here knowing one person, now I know 18 amazing people. I have two awesome roommates named Shatavia and Taya. I love the youth leaders and the staff. My room is amazing, I think we are staying in the senior rooms so we have our own kitchen.
Like most people I have classes that I hate and classes that I love. I love my writing and reading class as you guys should know. The teacher is awesome and she's cool. My leadership class is awesome to. He keeps me energized and focused and I'm hoping we will have good debates in the future (because I love debating with people). My college readiness class is awesome because we get an inside tip on what college admissions counselors look for in applications, and I get some of my questions answered. Finally we have my math class, I love math like actually love it. But the teacher is really boring. We are learning this math that I never ever heard of before. So that's a plus but I'm having a hard time staying up in his class. And thats the first class that we have so I'm going to get coffee tomorrow and hopefully will be able to stay up.
So I'm only on day 2 but so far everything is good. And I'll let you guys know what's happening.
P.S. there's a Barnes and Noble right around the corner from em so I'm trying to find a way for me to go. I'll Post pics.

The 2017 Gulf Coast Region Beach High Performance was the start of our region HP beach programming. It wouldn't be possible without these dedicated volleyball players. Beach HP Teams. 17u Marti McLaurin/Carissa Jones, 17u Madison Calkins/Mary Galloway, 15u Morgan Childress/Madison Galloway. Coach Kliengsak Sam Nimpchaimanatham and Gulf Coast Region National Team Rep Shawn Weaver. The HP Beach teams represented the region by competing in the 2017 ABT HP Championships. McLaurin/Jones finished in the Gold Brackets, Calkins/M.Galloway finished in the Silver Brackets, and Childress/Galloway were the Silver Division Champions!
We are very proud of the HP Beach Teams.
HP TEAMS had a great championship week this past summer!! Youth in Silver bracket, Select in Bronze bracket and Future Select makes their debut in style with two wins! Our region continues to make strides regionally and nationally. Playing in these tough events as well as National Qualifiers helps our Region members understand what it takes to become Champions and compete at the highest levels. We got better with every opportunity to play the ball this week.
Of course this wouldn't come together without the tireless efforts of Program Manager and Select Coach Nicole Keshock, Team Representative Shawn Weaver and our Region Board that sees the value in the program. I'm thankful for the opportunity to have been a part of the High Performance program as Director and GCY Coach. Thank you all for following these teams during the HPC's!

Gloucester have dominated Pool 5 of this season's European Rugby Challenge Cup from the outset, and go into Saturday's match at Kingsholm against French Top 14 outfit, Oyonnax, knowing that as long as they avoid defeat, they will be assured of a place in the quarter finals.
Despite their stuttering form in the Aviva Premiership, the Cherry and Whites have been in devastating form in Europe, where they have picked up 19 points from a possible 20, and head second placed Oyonnax by seven points. The home side will be confident of a 13th straight Challenge Cup Pool stage victory, against the side from the French Alps, who are amongst the poorest travellers in the Top 14 tournament.
With three wins from their four fixtures, a home defeat by Gloucester Rugby being the only blot on their record, the French club are still very much in the hunt for a place in the last eight, courtesy of being one of the best Pool runners-up. However, their inability to secure a single bonus point to date, may count against them in the final analysis, as might a possible lack of desire to chase qualification, given that they are only five points clear of the relegation zone, and they only escaped dropping back into the second tier of French rugby on the last day of the season. An experience that they will be keen to avoid again in this campaign.

Description: Grimspound is a late Bronze Age settlement, situated on Dartmoor in Devon, England. It consists of a set of 24 hut circles surrounded by a low stone wall. The name was first recorded by the Reverend Richard Polwhele in 1797 - it was probably derived from the Anglo Saxon god of war, Grim (more commonly known as Woden, or Odin).
In 1894 an archaeological dig was carried out by the Dartmoor Excavation Committee, which recorded many details of Grimspound as well as, controversially, making a reconstruction of the site.

Daisuke and I stalked silently towards the witch's hut. The hut was surrounded on all sides by wicker cages stuffed with ravens, cawing pitifully. Still, to date, two simple truths had never steered us wrong in Ravenloft:
1. Ravens tended to help out against whatever was attacking us that week; and
2. You can never go wrong stabbing old people, particularly if they were ugly.
Accordingly, the two of us approached the hut and freed the ravens, keeping an ear open for movement from inside the hut. As more and more ravens escaped, the cawing grew less frantic, and Daisuke heard movement from inside the hut. He signalled silently to me, then clambered onto the roof of the hut, as silent as a shadow.
I took a position next to the entrance, my crossbow ready to fire. The moment the old woman stepped out, she received a quarrel to the head. This was immediately followed by Daisuke tackling her to the ground. Lady Arimaka and Oscar rode up on Lady Arimaka's er… adequate mount. The old woman barely had the opportunity to shoot off a spell before being reduced to a fine red paste.
As we entered the hut, we saw a crib with a child in it, crying. Lady Arimaka reached out to it while I reloaded my crossbow, but the child turned out to be an illusion. More than that, we soon realized that the child was none other than a younger version of Lord Strahd himself.
I am not particularly given over to flights of fancy, but I could not help but imagine what would have happened if the child had been a smaller version of Lord Strahd.
In any event, we realized that the gem we were seeking was located underneath the crib. Our first attempt to seize it resulted in Lady Arimaka almost losing her hand, as the hut seemed to spring to life to protect itself. Our second attempt resulted in Lady Arimaka's axe being bisected (fortunately Oscar was able to mend it). Finally, our third attempt was successful.
We searched the room and found a chest. Oscar's attempt to open it was unsuccessful, as he had failed to notice that it was latched shut. His failure was a stroke of luck, as in addition to being locked, the chest was ensorcelled. We successfully banished the spell and I picked the lock, only to be attacked by a swarm of dismembered hands. Although not a threat for the party at full strength, I shudder to think how much damage they would have done had we been substantially injured in the fight against Baba Lesaga.
Daisuke suggested that the gem might be able to disrupt the magic keeping us in Ravenloft, so we decided to detour by the gate leaving the valley before returning to the Wizards of Wines. This detour would result in our passing near Kresk.
The road along the way passed at the foot of a fortress in the mountains. As we approached the fortress, we saw ghostly visions in the mist of a terrible battle, with a dragon made of mist burning an invading army horribly. As there was no way to reach the fortress from the road, we resolved to return later.
As we approached Kresk, we came upon a party of foresters. They informed us that a small girl had been stolen from Kresk. They believed werewolves were responsible, and we decided to assist them in recovering the girl. In hindsight, this may have been a mistake.
Lady Arimaka had a spell which would permit us to track the girl, but it required knowledge of an identifiable item upon her person. Accordingly, Lady Arimaka lent her mount to one of the foresters to take to Kresk to find someone who knew the girl and could identify what she was wearing. In the mean time, Lady Arimaka and Daisuke attempted to track the werewolves.
I spoke to the foresters. In particular, I had noted that one of the foresters referred to the little girl as "soulless". This struck me as an odd way to refer to a person, so I questioned him. He claimed that certain people in Ravenloft were born without souls, they tended towards grey and listless and simply seemed less "alive" than other inhabitants. His comment reminded me of some of the townsfolk in Valaki, who repeated certain motions mechanically. Even among the foresters, while some of them had splashes of colour in their outfit, others seemed drained of vitality.
The mount returned with one of the girl's kinsmen. Lady Arimaka cast the spell and it led us to an ominous tower on the shores of Lake Baratok. Just outside of the tower, there was a ruined wagon, of the style used by the Vistani. It was locked and bore several inscriptions to keep out. Mindful of what had occurred at Baba Lesaga's hut, I examined the door for runes. None were found. I then attempted to pick the lock. My attempt was unsuccessful. Oscar, impatient, broke the lock with his axe and swung open the door, igniting the several dozen vials of alchemist's fire contained within. The wagon went up in an enormous conflagration. The entire party was burned within an inch of their life. The foresters and Ireena were not so lucky. We managed to save Ireena's life, but the foresters were burned to a crisp.
Later on, at the foot of the tower, we discovered the body of the little girl, dead. She appeared to have been killed by some short of electrical discharge, but we have not yet ascertained the cause. We spent the night on the ground floor of the tower putting off exploration for the next day.

Now, it's 7 am and I'm trying to overcome a headache, boarding on laryngitis and my slightly achy toe (had an ingrown toenail removed). So, I'm not too happy since both my gals are up and shiny at this ungodly hour. It's wet and rainy outside, I have people coming at 9am and I still have to clean the rat cage. ugh. Did I say I don't fell well? I'm waiting for the Dayquil to hit I do feel a tad better. I have to take my allergy medicine as well as I've gotten confused about whether I should or shouldn't if I take Dayquil.
Norrie is feeling better after going to sleep at 8 pm and Lydia looks great too. I feel and look kind of gross but maybe a shower will help relax my muscles.
Sunday...I thought I wouldn't be able to go to Shavers creek but ended up going. It was more hiking then I realized and I felt slightly asthmatic near the end...plus, I didn't take my allergy medicine because I wasn't sure about having taken my cold medicine. Maybe I shouldn't worry about that and just take it.
Shavers creek was gorgeous and I'm glad I went even though I don't feel very good and probably got most people sick...feel bad about that. We walked through marsh to get to some mushrooms and my shoes nearly were sucked off my feet. Never had that happen before...or at least not both feet! Good grief. Then, we walked up hill and a woman found a wasps nest in the ground and ran screaming from there. She got stung and I was like, good god what now. I totally recognized her scream as something bug related as I was stung about 25 times when I was on a hike in California with a friend. Don't even want to think about it...anyway, I started mumbling things like, "I don't even have my Epi pen..." and warning people not to go near there. Scary.
People were tasting mushrooms left and right. I was a bit surprised, though some were definitely not edible and our leader, Bill Russell, said most would taste stronger than the hottest pepper. I didn't do any tasting as having allergies would probably puff up like a puffball. Russell didn't even having sensitivity to poison oak/ivy and I'm the type of person who looks at it and starts itching. One of my brothers is like Russell (David) and my other brother, Daniel is more like me only worse.
It was fascinating to find mushrooms and everyone looked for various species. I found out the older a mushroom the more bitter it would be and the younger, the harder to identify. So much to learn. I didn't pick any to eat but was content to study them and find out about the nature of the mushroom.
One thing that struck me was not even Russell would presume to know everything. It was a bit humbling and made me feel a bit more comfortable to know even he wouldn't throw caution into the wind about mushrooms or act like he knew everything.
I was rather amazed at how beautiful the area was and even though everyone seemed to hike like crazy, I got a few good pics.
I liked how most of the trail was on wooden walk ways...

Couple of hours before game time, batting practice pretty much over, and a reporter asks Devon Travis if this might be a good time to talk.
"Um, no, sorry," the rookie smiles apologetically. "I can't leave the field until Reyes goes off. Later?"
Not a rule that's written anywhere. But part of the Scrub Code, as young Travis has been making mental notations, compiling dos and don'ts in his Book of Job, as in big-league job, as in starting second baseman for the Toronto Blue Jays — and, geez, pinch him, because here he is under the lights.
Even standing off by the dugout and suddenly surrounded by a horde of media leading with their microphones as if dowsing for water, the 24-year-old keeps a watchful eye on Jose Reyes, his touchstone.
Travis is schooling.
Just as he did in spring training, where he sat mostly quiet as mouse — happy mouse — in the clubhouse, locker tucked into a corner next to the lost-and-found rack, eyes occasionally dilating like when, say, Jose Bautista would strut past, offer a kindly "How you doing?" Agog, Travis.
"I'm a talkative guy when people talk to me. However, in a locker room full of veterans, yeah, you're nervous, you got to know your place."
That place, much to the surprise of many, is firmly at second. And now — here's a lovely vignette — sandwiched between some of those Blue Jay luminaries that often rendered the native Floridian speechless down in Dunedin.
"I enjoy sitting in front of my locker and just seeing my name up there and having guys like Josh Donaldson and Jose Reyes next to me. For me, that's enough."
Well, hardly. But a gosh-almighty starting point for his maiden season in Major League Baseball, arriving from Detroit's Double-A affiliate in exchange for Anthony Gose, then besting defensive stalwart Ryan Goins for the everyday gig at second.
But, come again, what were those rumblings about Travis's purported defensive deficiencies? This is the same Travis who, in his first week as a regular-season Jay, has turned seven bang-bang double plays, starting one and middle swivel on the other half-dozen.
"I guess that's what the talk was about me. Just one more reason why I wanted to prove them wrong."
He has.
John Gibbons had an inkling right out of the chute. "The reports we had on him, the area he needed to improve, was his defence, because everybody said he could hit," the skipper was saying. "But I think he's been great defensively from day one of spring training. He's got good solid range. He has great instinct out there too."
He is getting a bit beat up, though, affixed to the bag as runners slide in, which has required a recent tactical adjustment.
"He likes to hang out on the bag," the manager notes. "So he's taken a pounding. Slow ground ball, when the runner has time, he's down on top of him. That's how you get hurt."
Now, he's stepping out of the baseline and coming across the bag to make the throw.
Gibbons continues: "As far as turning the double play, I don't think you're going to find a guy that can turn it any quicker than he does — and I'm talking about some of the good ones over the years. He's got a low centre of gravity that helps him around the bag. He's got short arms — makes him that much quicker."
Travis cracks up when those comments are repeated to him.
"I think that's Gibby's way of saying I'm short.''
Admittedly runty. Stumpy.
"I tell people I'm 5-foot-8." Pause. "With my shoes on."
Here's another vignette from Monday night's welcome-back Jays opener against the Tampa Bay Rays. Really more of a look forward, as envisioned by Travis, anticipating his first-at bat in front of a Toronto crowd.
"Hearing the walk-up song. ("Backflip'' by rap artist Casey Veggies.) Gives me goosebumps just thinking about it."
The second time it was played last night, Travis stroked a single to right that scored Kevin Pillar, Toronto's only run of the game in a 2-1 loss to Tampa Bay.
This is the rookie who, in his second at-bat, major-league debut, Yankee Stadium, touched up Chasen Shreve for a home run — with the extended Travis family clan in the stands — and reached base three times. Can't make that stuff up.
A thoughtful hitter, who comes to the plate with a plan in mind and will hit the other way.
"He's got great discipline," says Gibbons. "He has the ability to use the whole field, which is kind of rare for young guys. But he carries himself out there like he's done this before."
In awe, Travis has been this past week. Over the moon as he landed in Toronto Sunday night, first time in The Big Smoke.
"An awesome-looking city, huge buildings all lit up, illuminated.''
He was taking it all in, filling his lungs with the fact of his own big-league baseball essence.
"Every single day I wake up and it's like Christmas Day. This is something I've dreamed of my entire life. Being able to wake up and literally live my dream — that's pretty special.''
Seven games into his big-league career now, Travis looks around the expanse of unlovely Rogers Centre and sees . . . a thing of beauty.
"This is my new home.
"I hope I never get used to it. I hope every day will feel like Opening Day."

The Chilean women's football championship (Spanish: Campeonato Nacional Primera División de Fútbol Femenino) is the main league competition for women's football in Chile. The winner qualifies for the Copa Libertadores de Fútbol Femenino, the South American Champions League. The competition is organised by the Chilean Football Federation.
The Apertura and Clausura format is used, thus there are two champions per year. Apertura starts early in the year, Clausura starts mid year and ends in December. As of 2013 about 20 teams play in two divisions, a Southern one and a Central one. They play a single round-robin tournament. After that the top four teams advance to the quarter-finals. Since 2014 the final is played in only one match, as the other knock-out matches, before that the final was two-legged. If different teams win the Apertura and Clausura there is a play-off for the Copa Libertadores spot.

The Challenging Behaviors of Alzheimer's Disease: Other Treatment Options (Part Three)
This final installment of a three-part series explores some of the non-antipsychotic treatment options to help manage the challenging behaviors of Alzheimer's disease. Some of these involve medications, while others are psychosocial interventions.
In part one of this three-part discussion of challenging behavioral symptoms in Major Neurocognitive Disorder (previously called "dementia" and abbreviated here as MaND), we explored the range of non-cognitive behavioral disturbances that complicate the care of a person with MaND. In part two, we looked in depth at the controversy surrounding the use of antipsychotic medications in the treatment of these behaviors. In this final installment of the series, we will look at some of the non-antipsychotic treatment approaches. Some of these involve medications or electroconvulsive therapy, while others are psychosocial. We will also describe a newly publicized approach to the management of challenging behaviors.
- Part I: Read an overview of the challenging behaviors associated with Alzheimer's disease.
- Part II: Explore the uses and misuses of antipsychotic medications.
FDA Approved Drugs
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has given two classes of medication approval ("indication") for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. The cholinesterase inhibitor class has multiple members: tacrine (Cognex) is no longer in use while donepezil (Aricept), rivastigmine (Exelon), and galantamine (Razadyne) are used widely. The other class of medications, antagonists of the NMDA glutamate receptor, contains only one member: memantine (Namenda). Although the medications from these two groups have different mechanisms of action and different side effects, they share important clinical features. All of these medications are considered to be symptomatic treatments rather than significantly disease-modifying agents. Each has been shown to improve cognition modestly, and to have mild beneficial effects on activities of daily living and caregiver burden. Neither the cholinesterase inhibitors nor memantine, however, has been shown convincingly to have beneficial effects on established challenging behaviors such as agitation, insomnia, or wandering.
Off-Label Treatments
Anticonvulsants, another class of medications with both powerful effects and significant potential adverse effects, have been used off-label in the treatment of challenging dementia behaviors. The data for their efficacy is most complete for divalproex (Depakote), which is the more frequently used of these medications for this purpose. Unfortunately, the use of divalproex as a treatment for challenging behaviors, though sometimes effective, is not well-supported by the evidence. Another anticonvulsant, carbamazepine (Tegretol), has a very limited but more consistently positive evidence base. Perhaps it should be used more frequently, but its adverse effects and interactions with other drugs have rendered it less popular. Lamotrigine (Lamictal), gabapentin (Neurontin), topiramate (Topamax), and oxcarbazepine (Trileptal) have all been tried and supported by small case studies or anecdotal successes, but support for their use is very limited.
Antianxiety Medications
Medications, called benzodiazepines, such as lorazepam (Ativan), alprazolam (Xanax), oxazepam (Serax), or clonazepam (Klonopin) are sometimes prescribed off-label in the effort to reduce agitation in people with dementia. A handful of studies in which these medications have been compared to antipsychotics such as thioridazine (Mellaril, no longer available) or haloperidol (Haldol) found similar efficacy, but the efficacy of both classes is limited. Furthermore, the adverse effects of benzodiazepines in older adults with cognitive impairment can be quite problematic: gait instability, increased falls, unwanted sedation, and confusion. In a small number of people with dementia who require medication treatment and are intolerant of other options, the benzodiazepines may play a reasonable role but their use should be minimal. Dosage and duration of treatment should be restricted to what is required, and there should be attentive monitoring of efficacy and adverse effects.
In contrast to these other medication classes, there is considerable interest in the potential benefits of treatment for challenging behaviors with off-label use of some members of the antidepressant class. Citalopram, according to an FDA warning, is not intended for use above 20 mg/d (milligrams per day) in elderly patients as a result of evidence of cardiac conduction problems associated with higher doses. Cardiac conduction refers to special cells in the heart that send signals to the heart muscle causing it to contract. Escitalopram (Lexapro), which is a chemical relative of citalopram, appears to have a milder but still potentially significant risk for cardiac conduction issues. Other members of the SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor) antidepressant class such as sertraline (Zoloft) have not been shown to impact cardiac conduction to the same degree and would be preferred in a patient at risk for conduction-related arrhythmias (heart rhythm abnormalities).
Treatment Options for Extreme Cases
In some cases, dementia-related behaviors create danger for the patient and caregiver that must be controlled in order to achieve safety even if this requires off-label use of a medication with potentially severe adverse effects. Although less fully studied, some disruptive behaviors in people with dementia have been controlled through the use of adrenergic blockers, e.g. prazosin (Minipress); synthetic tetrahydrocannabinol or dronabinol (Marinol); and testosterone blockers such as cyproterone (Androcur). Pain relievers including opiates have also been explored in this role. Increasing public concern about opiate misuse, however, would be a relative contraindication for the use of one of these stronger pain relievers. The safe and appropriate use of these more extreme agents, as well as that of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), are mentioned here but will not be reviewed in any depth, though each approach has been supported by appropriate research data.
Non-Medication Alternatives
As indicated in the earlier sections of this series, medications are by no means the only way to address challenging behaviors in dementia. In fact, patients, caregivers, clinicians, and advocacy organizations have all expressed concern about the overuse of psychotropic drugs in nursing homes. The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) reported data in 2011 indicating that 83% of claims for antipsychotic medications given to elderly nursing home residents were associated with off label use, meaning prescribed for an unapproved indication, age group, dosage, or form of administration.
Behavioral Interventions
Behavioral interventions have done as well as medications in some studies and lack the potentially harmful adverse effects of medications. Among the non-medication behavioral interventions available to caregivers in institutional and home settings, some of the most effective techniques are distraction, redirection, massage, music therapy, physical activity, aromatherapy, and simulated presence therapy.
Innovative new programs such as the Eden Alternative have espoused an approach to dementia treatment described as drug-free and person-centered. In Vermont, a treatment approach named the Oasis Program was developed with the goal of transforming dementia care in nursing homes and reducing inappropriate antipsychotic medication usage by focusing on prevention rather than intervention for behavioral issues.
The "DICE" Model
Pulling both physical and psychosocial approaches together into a cleverly organized mnemonic, Dr. Helen Kales and her colleagues (JAGS 2014;61:762-9) have described the "DICE" model for intervention with challenging behaviors in people with dementia.
- "D" reminds us to "describe" a disruptive behavior. What is it? When does it occur and with whom? What is the patient perspective on the behavior? How much distress does it cause patient and caregiver?
- "I" reminds us to "investigate" the causes of the behavior. Is it an indicator of unrecognized pain, frustration, fear, or boredom? Does it represent medication side effects or an undiscovered medical or psychiatric condition? Is it the result of sensory changes and functional limitations? Does it represent an inappropriate caregiver expectation or a cultural issue?
- "C" reminds us to "create" an intervention that addresses the behavior directly. This may include diagnosing and treating pain-inducing physical conditions such as constipation, using a behavioral analysis to craft a behavioral treatment plan, supporting the caregivers, simplifying tasks, finding meaningful activities, or increasing/decreasing stimulation in the environment. Individualized music therapy, for example, can take into account a person's musical preference and provides soothing music through headphones and an MP3 player. When appropriate, the created intervention may include use of an appropriately chosen and monitored medication.
- Finally, the very important "E" reminds us to "evaluate" the effect of the intervention, noting whether it has helped and also whether there have also been unintended consequences or side effects of the intervention.
Management of challenging behaviors in persons with dementia represents one of the most important objectives of dementia care. For patients and caregivers, these behaviors are the most difficult aspect of care. With better prevention and control, people with dementia will be able to remain in less restrictive treatment settings, impose less burden on their caregivers, and sustain a higher quality of life for a longer time.

I'm trying to add a time delay between alerts, to prevent fresh alerts appearing every tick when conditions are satisfied.
I'm guessing this can be achieved by using an array storing the time of previous alerts, and having a specified time delay.
However, my theory is a little ahead of my practice at the moment so any pointers about how I would actually achieve this would be very much appreciated!

Khalsa College
Khalsa College (Punjabi: ਖਾਲਸਾ ਕਾਲਜ khālsā kālaj) is an historic educational institution in the northern Indian city of Amritsar in the state of Punjab, India. Founded in 1892, the sprawling 300-acre (1.2 km2) campus is located about eight kilometers from the city-center on the Amritsar-Lahore highway (part of the Grand Trunk Road), adjoining Guru Nanak Dev University campus, to which Khalsa College is academically affiliated.
Khalsa College was built as an educational institute during the British Raj in India when Sikh scholars thought about providing higher education to Sikhs and Punjabis within Punjab.
Amritsar was chosen for its establishment and Singh Sabha Movement andChief Khalsa Diwan approached the then Sikh Maharajas and Sikh people of Punjab to raise funds and donate land to build this unique institute. People of Amritsar, Lahore and other cities of Punjab including rich Sikh families and Maharajas donated land and raised funds to build Khalsa College, Amritsar.
Its architectural design was created by Ram Singh(architect), a famous architect who also designed one of the Places in England. Its building was completed in 1911–12. Its architectural features are mix of British, Mughal and Sikh architect.
Khalsa college\'s contribution towards the freedom history of India is significant as it has generated many famous freedom fighters, political leaders, armed forces generals, scientists, famous players-Olympians, actors, writers, journalists and scholars. More information about Khalsa college can be found in the book "History of Khalsa College Amritsar," written by Dr. Ganda Singh, former head of the dept. of Sikh History, Khalsa College Amritsar.

Apparently the motion asking MPs to canvass their electorates on homosexual 'marriage' passed - by one vote.
And the campaign to vilify those who disagree with this tiny but vocal lobby group (aided and abbetted by their latte-set collaborators) for immorality has already started - so please do go to the Sydney Morning Herald website and vote to register your opposition.
Because let's be clear - there is no absolute 'right' to get married. There are certain basic criteria that need to be satisfied before a marriage can occur. One of them being that the couple concerned consist of a male and a female respectively.
I do have to say I see a certainly irony in the SMH's headline courtesy of ex-pat actress Portia di Rossi (partner of Ellen deGeneres) that opponents of gay marriage are dinosaurs who should 'evolve or die'. Because gay adoptions and IVF not withstanding, its pretty clear which side evolution favours, and its not the gay lobby...
***Update: Oh and it gets better! Ms di Rossi has been accused of sexism by Sunrise Show Host David Koch because she refused to be interviewed him on the grounds that he was a man....So, human rights only for lesbian women?

Are you a 'gay marriage dinosaur'? Vote yes!
