Senator Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) author of Senate Bill 219
Authored by Senator Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco), Senate Bill (SB) 219 was sponsored by Equality California. "Our LGBT seniors built the modern LGBT community and led the fight for so many of the rights our community takes for granted today," said Sen. Wiener. "It is our duty to make sure they can age with the dignity and respect they deserve. I want to thank Governor Brown for joining our coalition in supporting this bill, which will make a real difference in people's lives. The LGBT Senior Bill of Rights is an important step in our fight to ensure all people are treated equally regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity." October 12, 2017 - October 26, 2017 • No. 586
In a 2011 study of LGBTQ seniors and family members released by the National Senior Citizens Law Center, 43 percent had either been abused by caretakers themselves or witnessed that abuse. This incidence of maltreatment is likely far higher, as many cases of discrimination go undocumented. This abuse can take many forms, including being turned away or evicted from a long-term care facility based on sexual orientation or gender identity. After a lifetime of bullying by schoolmates, co-workers and society at large, some LGBTQ seniors are forced to share a room with homophobic or transphobic companions and same-sex couples are sometimes separated. "LGBTQ seniors fought some of the first and most difficult battles for LGBTQ civil rights and deserve our protection," said Rick Zbur, executive director of Equality California. "Many of our elders have no children or other family members to care for them and are especially vulnerable to abuse or neglect in long-term care. SB 219 will help ensure that care facilities provide culturally-competent care." SB 219 was supported by the American Civil Liberties Union, APLA Health, California Advocates for Nursing Home Reform, Justice in Aging, FORGE, the California chapter of the National Association of Social Workers, National Center for Lesbian Rights, National Center for Transgender Equality, San Francisco Human Rights Commission, the Source LGBT + Center, and the Transgender Law Center.
Briefly Put
CA's Instructional Quality Commission Approves LGBTInclusive Textbooks for Adoption by State BOE
The California Department of Education's Instructional Quality Commission (IQC) voted to approve 10 History-Social Science K-8 textbooks which were inclusive of the LGBT content mandated by the state's 2016 History-Social Science Framework. Most were approved conditional upon edits provided by the FAIR Education Act Implementation Coalition, a group of LGBT advocacy and educational organizations formed to ensure implementation of the state's 2012 FAIR Education Act, which requires the inclusion of the political, economic, and social contributions of LGBT people and people with disabilities in California textbooks. "Ensuring that LGBTQ people, families and their contributions to our nation and communities are fully represented is crucial to making sure that students in California schools are safe, accepted and free from bullying," said Rick Zbur, Executive Director of Equality California, which sponsored the FAIR Education Act in 2011.
Census Bureau Will Include Question on Sexual Orientation
The U.S. Census Bureau has reversed a previous decision to exclude a question on sexual orientation from the Census Barriers, Attitudes and Motivators Study. "Make no mistake — public pressure on the Trump Administration works," said Rea Carey, Executive Director of the National LGBTQ Task Force. "It was messages from the members of the National LGBTQ Task Force and our partner organizations that compelled the Census Bureau to reverse their appalling decision to stop counting us. Thanks to the efforts of people across the country, the Census will continue collecting data about sexual orientation. We also will continue to push them to collect data about gender identity. Data about the LGBTQ community is absolutely crucial to ensuring that we are distributed the resources we need, that we are represented, and that the most vulnerable in our community are protected."
GLAD and NCLR Join as Co-Counsel in Suit Against Transgender Ban; Ask for Emergency Relief to Stop Harm
The National Center for Lesbian Rights (NCLR) and GLBTQ Legal Advocates & Defenders (GLAD), the LGBT legal organizations leading the fight against the Trump Administration's transgender military ban, have joined as co-counsel in EQCA lawsuit challenging the ban, Stockman v. Trump. The three organizations also filed on Oct. 2 a motion for preliminary injunction in the U.S. District Court for Central California to immediately stop the ban and prevent "further irreparable harm" to transgender Americans who are currently serving in the military or have been barred from enlisting. "The President's reckless ban is harming transgender troops in communities all across the country," said Shannon Minter, NCLR's Legal Director. "Despite their dedicated service, the President has thrown the lives of thousands of military servicemembers and their families into chaos, devastating their livelihoods and dreams, and harming our country. We must use every tool in our power to fight this ban immediately, here in California and throughout the country."
SF Pride Elects New Board and Chooses 2018 Theme

New Initiative Aims to Chronicle LGBTQ+ History
hronicle, a new collaborative visual storytelling platform, has launched an initiative to crowdsource stories from LGBTQ+ individuals and organizations, creating a chronicle to tell the bigger story and visual history of the community.
You can submit your own photos and stories, like this one submitted by Diana Davies of a 1971 gay rights demonstration in Albany, NY., and help save the history of the LGBT Community at onechronicle.com/chronicles/lgbtq.
People and organizations add photographs with descriptive details directly to the LGBTQ+ chronicle (currently 1948 - present) timeline to help build and be part of the story. The result is an informative resource and ongoing record that strengthens the community. Current participants include organizations and activists such as Gwen Smith, founder of National Transgender Day of Remembrance; Aydian Dowling, first trans man on the cover of Men's Health; and young YouTube influencer Are They Gay. "One of the unique challenges with the LGBTQ+ community is that our history is often hidden away and forgotten," noted Gwen Smith. "Having a platform like the LGBTQ+ chronicle for showcasing our images and stories gives us a chance to bring our tales out into the light, and give a rich, detailed look into our lives." Multiple moderators are joining to curate content for the chronicle to ensure quality, accuracy, and inclusivity. With each photo
added, users can include details like title, description, location, and tags to document that moment in history within the larger story. "The LGBTQ+ chronicle is an open platform where the entire community can document and share the visual history and current events," said Steven McBride, Founder/CEO of Chronicle. "There was no single visual record where everyone could come together to chronicle their story. We created Chronicle for this purpose — to benefit the greater community." Chronicles and their individual images can both be easily shared through social media. Users can freely embed the full LGBTQ+ chronicle into their websites and blogs using the open API and embed code. LGBTQ+ advocates, organizations, journalists, and individuals are invited to add their noteworthy photos to the LGBTQ+ chronicle to be a part of the collaborative visual narrative. The chronicle can be accessed at onechronicle.com/chronicles/lgbtq.

The nineteenth annual Service of Remembrance will be held on October 29, 2017, at 4 p.m. at St. John's Lutheran Church in Sacramento and will feature music by the Sacramento Gay Men's Chorus. The service is offered in memory of all who have died violently through murder or suicide because they were (or were perceived to be) lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender. This interfaith service embraces a variety of spiritual expressions including those of the Jewish, Christian, Buddhist, Muslim, Hindu and Native American faith traditions. Featured during the service is a period of time during which we honor the List of Lost Lives — over 800 names (and countless others whose names are not known to us) who died as a result of fear, hatred and intolerance toward their sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression. The service provides the opportunity to remember their lives with love, bear witness to the atrocity of their deaths and affirm together that hatred and violence must end It is not a coincidence that the service is held each year in October. National Coming Out Day falls each year in October and we are reminded that coming out is very dangerous for lLGBT people and their families. By coming out, LGBT people risk their homes, their jobs, their friendships, their faith community memberships, their family relationships and even their lives. In addition, October is designated as Gay and Lesbian History Month
(lgbthistorymonth.com). Thus, this service reminds us that the history of LGBT people has been fraught with injustice, hatred and violence. Finally, October marks the anniversary of the horrifying torture and murder of Matthew Shepard. Sacramento PFLAG organized the first Service of Remembrance in 1999 and has continued to take a leadership role in the event each year. PFLAG promotes the health and well-being of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people, their families and friends through support — to cope with an adverse society; education - to enlighten an ill-informed public; and advocacy — to end discrimination and to secure civil rights. PFLAG provides an opportunity for dialogue about sexual orientation and gender identity as it acts to create a society that is healthy and respectful of human diversity. Faith communities from throughout the Sacramento area committed to sharing God's love for the world in the world, affirming the dignity and worth of all people, celebrating human diversity and welcoming all – no exceptions – will be participating in this important memorial service. We invite all good people of conscience to attend and take this opportunity to stand in solidarity with the LGBT community and its allies.

Finding a Different Path by Matthew Burlingame
hen Meghan Frederick was a child all she wanted was to follow in her father's footsteps, but as circumstances and the curveballs of life so often dictate, she found herself on a different path. "I wanted to become an airline pilot like my father," says Frederick. "Unfortunately, I was not gifted with the eyesight necessary to pursue this type of career professionally." Opting instead for a career in the financial field, Frederick worked as a stockbroker and financial advisor, obtaining a position as a stock and options trader with a major online trading firm. But when the 90's tech bubble began to deflate and the World Trade Center — the financial heart of America — came crashing, literally, to the ground, she knew that this was the end of her financial career and found herself scrambling for a new direction in life. Raised in a family where public service was valued, law enforcement seemed like a natural career choice. Frederick applied to the California Department of Corrections and began the academy in July, 2002. "I was offered a position in Folsom, California and began my career in a maximum-security prison 16 weeks after beginning the academy," she recalls. Once there, Frederick immediately gravitated toward running the 180 design, level IV, maximum security housing units and took great pride keeping other officers, non-custody staff, and inmates safe in an often violent environment. But little did Frederick know when she began this career that ten years later she would be transitioning her gender from male to female. Born physically male, Frederick who is now 53, began to explore her true gender identity in 2008. In 2012 she returned to work after an injury identifying as a transgender woman. "Once I began to transition I was immediately isolated and targeted for elimination by my peers," says Frederick. "The other officers, sergeants, lieutenants, captains, and even the administration failed to take my complaints of discrimination, separate and unequal treatment, retaliation, and the ever increasing hostile workplace seriously." Frederick cites incidences of increasing hostility including being locked in stairwells and controlled entryways, and continued to be addressed as "sir," 'he," and "him" despite constant corrections. "My car has been vandalized multiple times in a secure employee parking lot," Frederick says. "One supervisor even asked me to prove I was female by requesting to see my peace officer identification. It was one of the most incredibly humiliating and devastating experiences of my transition. I have had to file well over one hundred complaints." The turning point came when an inmate informant told Frederick that the institution had received a death threat in writing on her life in prior weeks and had failed to notify her. "When I confronted them about it, they did admit the death threat," explains Frederick. "But their reply was, 'oh, we must have just forgot to tell you.' This was the most irresponsible act a supervisor can make within a maximum-security prison. The inmates outwordmagazine.com
housed within this institution are incredibly violent and murders are committed by inmates every year." "Working as a Correctional Peace Officer within a maximum security prison is like enforcing the law within a small city," she continues. "Only in this case, almost every inhabitant can be a potentially deadly threat. Knowing that your fellow officer has your back is the only way an officer can stay safe and survive in this hostile environment for any length of time. Unfortunately, the transphobic, trans-misogynistic, anti-LGBTQ environment is so all-pervasive and endemic within the CDCR culture, as a trans female officer, I am not safe. The department has failed me too often causing this situation to spiral so far out of control that my career at California State Prison Sacramento is now unsalvageable." When Frederick began to notify the union and administration, not only was nothing done, but her supervisor allegedly began to threaten her and became increasingly more hostile. "I realized at this point that nobody had my back in this institution and it was time to take my complaints outside prison walls for proper

redress. Initially, I sought help through the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the Federal Department of Justice. I finally obtained a right to sue letter from the Department of Justice and sought out qualified legal counsel." Frederick's legal counsel, Lawrance A.

Margaret Cho Is Fresh Off The Bloat
by Colt McGraw
ong before Fresh Off The Boat became a ratings success, the popular comic and actress Margaret Cho starred in All American Girl, the first American sitcom to feature an Asian-American family in network primetime, back in 1994. Since Cho lifted the veil on her Korean American culture, she has been entertaining us with her comic art through stand-up, acting and writing, and inspiring us through her activism. This comedy trailblazer will be bringing her "sickest" tour yet to Sacramento's Crest Theater this October. But what makes her Fresh Off The Bloat tour the sickest yet? I had the opportunity to find out when I spoke with Cho recently by phone from her home in Los Angeles. Cho, never one to hold back, dove right in to politics to stress why edgy, ballsy comedy is needed now more than ever. "It's the way we're living life now, in these crazy-ass times, with Trump in office and all that entails," says Cho. "It's a very brutal time. I mean, when we're missing George W. Bush, when we're comparing our current President negatively to the two Bush presidencies —there's something very wrong." Cho's ability to bring a comic spin to difficult subjects may be one of the reasons why she recently landed on Rolling Stone's list of the 50 Top Stand-up Comedians of All Time. But whom would Cho put on her list of all time favorite comics? "I love Kathy Griffin, she's a pioneer, a champ," says Cho. "I also like Wanda Sykes and Sarah Silverman. They are both good friends of mine." However, when it comes to the number one spot, Cho explains why Joan Rivers is tops. "There's no comparison, there's no peer that could even compete with what she could do," says Cho. As Cho prepares for a tour that will take her across the U.S. and through Europe, she admits to enjoying a much quieter experience than before. "I've traveled by tour bus and with entourages in the past," says Cho. "It's just weird. It doesn't help to have an entourage. These days, it's me, my opening act, my tour manager and that's it." Yet Cho recalls crazier times partying in Sacramento and other cities when she was younger. "I've been to Sacramento so many times over the years, and it's wonderful to be coming back," says Cho. "I remember going to FACES. It's like one of those requisite gay bars. They're always named things like Faces or Silhouettes or The Eagle." Cho will continue to broaden the world's consciousnesses with her upcoming TNT pilot Highland, which was inspired by her personal history with substance abuse. The plot of Highland will center on a woman (played by Cho) who becomes the glue that holds a very dysfunctional family together, despite the fact that she has just been released from rehab. "I am really excited about this project," says Cho. "It's been a long journey. This is very true to life." Highland will also feature an all-female team of creators, director, and star — rare for a TV pilot. After all is said and done, what does Cho want written on her head stone? The sassy funny lady doesn't miss a beat. "I want it to say, 'She did it.'" Margaret Cho will perform at the historic Crest Theatre on Thursday, October 19 at 7:30 p.m. For more information on the Fresh Off The Bloat tour and her upcoming television show, visit www.margaretcho.com.

Blade Runner & Battle of the Sexes Plus Five French Films At The Crest
Ryan Gosling in "Blade Runner 2049."
by Chris Narloch
ost moviegoers will be racing out to see the new Blade Runner flick, which is definitely one of the most anticipated films of the year. In addition to that must-see movie, I urge you to check out the hilarious true tale, Battle of the Sexes.
that King falls in love with during all the hoopla leading up to the big day. It's Bill Pullman, however, who all but steals the show as Jack Kramer, the sexist jerk who refuses to pay the women tennis players anywhere near what the men are getting paid. I was ten years old when I watched the match, and the directors nail the period completely, while exploring King's budding lesbianism in far more detail than I had expected. Battle of the Sexes is surprisingly entertaining, and I recommend you see it

Ryan Gosling and Ana de Armas in "Blade Runner 2049."
Blade Runner 2049
Critics have been strictly forbidden to divulge any spoilers or surprises in the long-awaited sequel to Ridley Scott's original Blade Runner. I can say, however, that I liked the new film very much, despite the fact that it is even longer and slower than the original. (That measured, hypnotic pace is part of the appeal of both films.) Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2049 are not action films but moody sci-fi meditations on life, death, and the human condition. Ryan Gosling is superb as the new blade runner, Harrison Ford is back as the old blade runner, and several other cast members from the first movie pop up again
as well. See Blade Runner 2049 on the biggest screen you can find – preferably Sacramento's Esquire IMAX on K Street – and let the film's mesmerizing music and moving pictures wash over you.
Battle of the Sexes
Run don't walk to see this funny filmic flashback to the famous 1973 tennis match in which feminist icon Billie Jean King beat the much older male chauvinist Bobby Riggs during a nationally televised event.

text: slayemin 6123 Report post Posted December 3, 2004 I just downloaded DirectX9 SDK and installed it. This just opened a new can of worms, and an infinite amount of things I don't know anything about. Apparently DirectDraw is gone?! how will I make 2D games now? I also have VC 6.0 AND visual studio 7 installed on my computer. Looking at the C# samples in the DX9SDK, the code looks much more clean then the C++ DirectDraw (3?) which I've been using in VC6. I don't know anything about what this stuff does, but I can draw conclusings from most of the sample code. DirectX 9 and Visual Studio 7 seem to be the wave of the future (or already is), so I'm thinking I better get onboard with it. However, I don't know if there are a ton of resources available (which I've had to rely on quite often for VC6), or even if its a good idea to go in this direction for game development. I think all of my books are written for earlier releases of DirectX, and were (sp?) written prior to VS7. I'm not against getting new books, if I have too (as long as they aren't visual basic). I'm working on setting up my initial game engine, so the time to use new technologies and stuff is now, at the seed of project development... /me overwhelmed with new stuff (Bleh :-/) Any direction on what the way to go for game dev tools and tech? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

THE rising cost of newsprint, flat or falling circulation and sluggish advertising growth added up to discouraging second-quarter earnings results for several newspaper industry companies.
While executives blamed a weak operating environment for low earnings, they also vowed to cut costs and focus on Internet activities in the coming months.
The Tribune Company announced yesterday that its second-quarter net earnings slid 62 percent, to $85.7 million, or 28 cents a share, from $231.3 million, or 73 cents a share, the year before. Second-quarter revenue slid 1.4 percent, to $1.43 billion, from $1.45 billion.
McClatchy reported steady second-quarter earnings of $44.1 million, or 94 cents a share, compared with $44.2 million, or 94 cents a share, last year. Circulation sales, meanwhile, declined 4.4 percent.
Media General, based in Richmond, Va., said yesterday that earnings declined 47 percent from a year ago. On Wednesday, the Gannett Company, the largest newspaper publisher in the United States and owner of USA Today, reported that its second-quarter earnings fell 8.3 percent.Continue reading the main story
Industry analysts said the results were nearly in line with projections and primarily the product of problems facing newspaper companies.
"Nobody was expecting the second quarter to be bang-up," said John Morton, a newspaper analyst. "Advertising has not performed well this year, and they don't have a great deal of control over that."
The New York Times Company plans to report second-quarter results on Tuesday. In a statement to investors last month, the company said it expected second-quarter diluted earnings to be in the range of 41 to 43 cents a share, compared with 42 cents in the same quarter in 2005.
Newspapers have suffered from the loss of classified advertising, as free online classified boards like Craigslist have grown in popularity. They have also seen a shortfall of display advertising in the automotive and entertainment sectors.
Tribune owns 11 daily newspapers including The Chicago Tribune, The Los Angeles Times and Newsday, and 24 television stations. The company has had double-digit advertising losses at Newsday, after a circulation scandal at the paper, and it sold two television stations in Atlanta and Albany during the quarter.
In a conference call with analysts on Thursday, Tribune executives said they planned to cut $200 million in costs over the next two years.
"Let me stress that there's more to this plan than just cutting costs," said Dennis J. FitzSimons, Tribune's chairman and chief executive. "We intend to redeploy resources, to reinvest for growth in interactive, as well as in our newspapers and targeted print products."
The earnings report is likely to add to the pressure on Mr. FitzSimons, who is fighting an effort to break up the company by the Chandler family, Tribune's largest shareholder.
Donald C. Grenesko, chief financial officer at Tribune, emphasized the company's plans to increase its Internet ventures and take advantage of online trends. "We intend to make our local newspaper sites more robust, including increased use of video and user-generated content," he said.
Advertisers have been increasingly moving their ad dollars to the Web, and that migration has been hurting newspapers, said Colby Atwood, a newspaper analyst at Borrell Associates, a media research and analysis firm.
"We've estimated that it takes 50 to 100 online readers to attract the same amount of revenue that one print reader does," Mr. Atwood said. "That also reflects a lag in advertisers' behavior relative to the audience's behavior. The audience has moved to the Web, but advertisers are following more slowly."
Scott C. Smith, president of the Tribune Publishing Company, a division of Tribune, addressed the cost of online ads, which some industry experts have suggested are too low. "We've aggressively raised online prices, keeping print prices relatively stable," Mr. Smith said.
Still, analysts said that while the situation for newspapers was unlikely to turn around anytime soon, some of the struggling companies are fighting back. Tribune has "held the line on costs in the last year when they've been slogging through all the difficulties that they've been going through," said Barry Lucas, a newspaper analyst for Gabelli & Company. "This isn't the first time that the industry has faced some difficult periods."
Mr. Morton predicted that some relief might be in store if the cost of newsprint, which has risen roughly 12 percent in the last year, stabilized in the near future. "I suspect that starting next year, newsprint price increases will be much more modest than this year," he said.Continue reading the main story

Soldier involved in shooting previously charged with aggravated sex assault of a child
The man involved in a chase last week in Bell and Williamson counties had a criminal history, new details revealed on Monday.
A welfare check was underway for 39-year-old Fort Hood Soldier Alva Joe Gwinn last week when his car was found near Florence.
READ: One dead after officer-involved shooting in Bell County
Gwinn fled the scene and led officers on a high-speed chase. Eventually Gwinn got out of the car and ran onto private property. He had a gun and shot at least once at officers, who returned fire. Gwinn, however, died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Bell County released an affidavit on Monday, Oct. 16, saying Gwinn had been charged with aggravated sexual assault of a child who was 13 at the time of the assault. Gwinn would have gone to trial for that case in just a few weeks.

For e. G.I have back spots as well pimples in my face used scer removeval cream for 4 month but didn. T see any change what should I do?
My daughter of 5 years has subglottic stenosis; her wind pipe cross section is reduced by 45%. This is due to intubation during her treatment for pneumonia. Her air way become narrowed when she was intubated for 10 days for her pneumonia. She got laser surgery/therapy but not much improvement. She has noisy breath in normal day time. While sleeping she is ok i. E. No noise breath. Though she is active, she cannot move fast or run or play, if she does so she will be having trouble to breath.

Dear sir, . My age is 47 years complete. I am a married male having two young children. On the ground of health-matter I am unlucky and hopeless person. My life today became very uneasy due to some acute conditions. It is likely difficult to explain the problems itself. But I am trying to describe them in my best capacity. At first I must reveal about my current profession. I am working today as a courier delivering person, so by the virtue of my job I have to move on my bicycle extensively .I think this extensive cycling would be harming me on the grounds of health. Because I am always feeling dizziness, cerebral weakness and muscular weakness. There are occasional acute headaches. Sleep is very disturbed and full of unwanted and uneasy dreams. Rising in morning become very cumbersome and thorny task for me. On the other hand my digestive system and specifically excretory system also show spiky symptoms which are nearing to IBM. Stool excavation is becoming uneasy and unsatisfying also. There is spontaneous feeling of scorching and uneasiness in the lower abdomen or annals portion.
Hi I want to lighten up my skin tone and remove oil from my face so is there any good cream and face wash for it that will show good result.
Asthma is a chronic respiratory disorder. In asthma, the airways of the lungs get inflamed. Due to this inflammation, there is swelling inside the airways. This also causes excess production of mucous. The combined effect of swelling and mucus production is that the passage of air gets obstructed. This makes breathing difficult. A whistling sound or wheezing is often heard in such patients. Often the patient gets cough due to this obstruction of the airways. This cough is a reflex of the body to get rid of the excess mucous in the airways. A sense of tightness or heaviness is felt in the chest. One cannot expand the chest fully while inhaling. This is a medical condition characterised by paroxysmal wheezing respiration dyspnoea.
Homeopathy for Asthma-
When it comes to the treatment of Asthma, Homeopathy is much better at treating asthma. It is in stark contrast to allopathy, where inhalers and steroids are used to suppress inflammation. Homeopathic medicines do not aim at just reducing inflammation. They also intend to cure the basic cause of the recurrent inflammation. This way, not only the symptoms of asthma are treated but the incidence of asthmatic attacks is completely eliminated. With a couple of months of Homeopathic treatment, you will be able to live a disease-free and medicine-free life. It is worthwhile to mention here that all Homeopathic remedies are natural and do not contain any chemicals. That is why these purely natural homeopathic remedies do not have any side effects at all. Here is a list of the top homeopathic medicines for asthma, along with the symptoms when they are used-
Ipecac: Ipecac is used in treating asthma, where the patient experiences symptoms like heaviness and tension around the chest area. Sudden wheezing, suffocation is experienced followed by other symptoms like motions, vomiting and gagging. The cough remains constant, and the chest gets filled up with phlegm. Cold and perspiration is also likely to be experienced. A patient may feel as if a lump is present in the chest. Increased salivation is also indicated.
Arsenicum: Arsenicum is an efficient homeopathic medicine, which treats asthma attacks, which take place after midnight. The patient is anxious, restless, and cannot sleep because of the fear of being suffocated. In such cases, the patient dozes off a bit, and wakes up with great burning sensation and sore feeling in the chest. Arsenicum is prescribed during chronic stages of asthma, usually in elderly people.
Nux Vomica: Nux Vomica is used when asthma attacks occur due to gastric disorders and during simple spasmodic asthmas. People who consume an excess of caffeine or alcohol are more likely to experience such attacks. A constricting feeling in the lower chest region may be experienced. These attacks commonly occur during the morning.
Kali Bichromicum: This homeopathic medicine is used is asthmatic patients where the asthma attacks occur because of potashes. The attacks generally occur between three to four a.m. in the morning. The patient gets compelled to rise from sleep and sit up in order to breathe. A stringy yellow mucus may be produced, and the patient feels a lack of air in his chest.
Natrum Sulphuricum: This is another effective medicine for treating asthma. The symptoms of asthma treated with this medicine get worse in damp weather. Most asthma attacks occur with a rattling sensation being felt in the chest. Bowel movement may become loose after this type of asthma attack. Alcohol and aerated drinks make the symptoms even worse. Such attacks are common in the morning with the production of a green mucus.
Homeopathy has no side effects and treats the underlying cause of asthma. You should consult a homeopathic practitioner before starting homeopathic treatment for asthma.

Simultaneously one of the best use-cases for cloud as well as the worst. What's IT to do?
David Linthicum, SOA and cloud pundit and all-around interesting technology guy, recently pointed out a short post on business intelligence (BI) vendors joining forces with the cloud to offer cloud-based BI services.
Four open-source and proprietary vendors on Wednesday announced a new partnership resulting in a cloud-based BI (business intelligence) stack.
Jaspersoft and Talend will respectively lend their open-source BI and data-integration technologies to the integrated offering, which also employs Vertica's analytic database and RightScale's management software for cloud-based application deployments.
Thought #1: That's a perfect use case for cloud! Business intelligence processing is (a) compute intensive and (b) interval based (periodic processing; BI processing and reports are generally scheduled occurrences). It is a rare organization that builds OLAP cubes and runs ETL processes and generates reports all the time. But when they do, look out, they can bring a server (or three) to their knees.
Thought #2: That's a horrible use case for cloud! The data, though it may be anonymized to remove personally identifiable information/account data, is still sensitive. It's not any one field or combination of fields that are sensitive, it's the whole data set. That combination of data is used to make business decisions, analyze business performance, and provides a great view of an organization's current operating and financial status. That kind of data is not something you want shared outside the organization.
Some of the data used for business intelligence and data mining operations is not all that interesting. But some of it contains the very data from which businesses can and do make very critical business-oriented decisions. Some of the data being analyzed consists of sales and demographics: past, present, and future. Some of that data can be interpreted as information about the financial health of an organization which, for some companies, is not something that should be handed off to a third-party without some fairly stringent assurances regarding the security of that data both from prying eyes and theft.
The last time I took a hard look at BI solutions I managed to convince the powers that be to ship me a copy of the subscription database. To a publishing company the subscription database, and all the data that describes those subscribers, is a goldmine. Even though I then worked for the same organization and the testing was being conducted in an isolated environment the data was stripped, masked, and as anonymized as possible lest it "leak" out into the real world. It was that important to the organization that the data be safe that most of the juicy bits were effectively gone by the time I got my hands on it.
This is not an uncommon scenario. The data often churned through by business intelligence systems is extremely sensitive and crucial to the day-to-day decisions made regarding the business. This is not just sales data, it's the keys to the kingdom, effectively. For a competitor to get their hands on that data would be disastrous. Thus, it is hard to believe any organization would trust a third-party provider with that data.
Not sure about that? Remember that BI systems and reports are supposed to enable business decision makers to answer questions like:
- What product is selling well and at what price point in area X?
- What are buyers in demographic Y currently spending their dollars on?
- Who buys products like Z?
Imagine a fierce competitor getting their hands on that data, and what they could do with it. Consider the impact on the organization if competing businesses can answer those questions for both themselves and your organization? "Not good" would be an understatement.
But the fact is that such systems are the perfect use-case for cloud given their periodic and highly compute intensive demands on the data center.
If ever there was a good use-case scenario for a private, internal cloud BI systems are it. The ability to consume additional resources, on-demand across the data center in a distributed way would certainly decrease the overall operating and capital expenses often associated with business intelligence initiatives and the data – the very important, sensitive data – would remain safely locked up within the confines a data center over which the organization has complete (one hopes) control.
Now, given the mix of vendors involved in the aforementioned venture that kicked off this quandary, it appears to be the case that this will be an offering more along the lines of Salesforce.com. Salesforce has, of course, done well with ensuring the security of its sensitive data and providing the isolation required by many customers to trust essentially outsourcing such a business-critical function (SFA). Seriously – when have you heard of a breach in Salesforce security leading to data leakage? Exactly. So it is not beyond imagining that a BI-related venture based on a similar shared platform/isolated data (multi-tenant) model might entice some away from investing in expensive hardware and software to support BI efforts internally.
The difference between the data housed in Salesforce and data shoved into BI systems, however, is enough to continue to be cautious about pushing such responsibility off to the cloud. This really isn't about the security of the cloud, it's about the value – and risk – of the data to the organization, and whether the potential savings would offset the risk. Many organizations are likely to say "no, no it doesn't." Thus it is a good idea to consider the potential benefits of building out an internal cloud instead. With a quarter of IT executives recently surveyed initiating private cloud implementations in 2009 anyway, it makes sense to look to BI as a possible early contender for deployment in an internal cloud-based architecture.

You know you need the cloud, but you're hesitant to simply dump everything at Amazon since you know that not all workloads are suitable for cloud. You know that you want the kind of ease of use and scalability that you get with public cloud, but your applications are architected in a way that makes the public cloud a non-starter. You're looking at private cloud solutions based on hyperconverged infrastructure, but you're concerned with the limits inherent in those technologies.

The notion of improving operational efficiency is conspicuously absent from the healthcare debate - neither Obamacare nor the newly proposed GOP plan discusses the impact that a step-function improvement in efficiency could have on access to healthcare (through more capacity), quality of healthcare services (through reduced wait times for patients) or cost (through better utilization of scarce, expensive assets).

Cloud Governance means many things to many people. Heck, just the word cloud means different things depending on who you are talking to. While definitions can vary, controlling access to cloud resources is invariably a central piece of any governance program. Enterprise cloud computing has transformed IT.

For DevOps teams, the concepts behind service-oriented architecture (SOA) are nothing new. A style of software design initially made popular in the 1990s, SOA was an alternative to a monolithic application; essentially a collection of coarse-grained components that communicated with each other. Communication would involve either simple data passing or two or more services coordinating some activity. SOA served as a valid approach to solving many architectural problems faced by businesses, as app...

Every few years, a disruptive force comes along that prompts us to reframe our understanding of what something means, or how it works. For years, the notion of what a computer is and how you make one went pretty much unchallenged. Then virtualization came along, followed by cloud computing, and most recently containers. Suddenly the old rules no longer seemed to apply, or at least they didn't always apply. These disruptors made us reconsider our IT worldview.

I've spent a few days in Julian's flat. The apartment is very nice, sunny, clean and comfortable. Julian is a great host, very helpful one. I've been to Berlin many times before but I didn't know much about Moabit district. That's a multicultural area with the restaurants and shops around. There is S-bahn station near by and the buses so that's very easy to get to the other parts of Berlin from there. Everything went well, so I would highly recommend to stay at Julian's place. Thank you again Julian!:)
Julian kindly waited 'til my partner and I arrived to his home. He generously shared his clean space--down to the food in his kitchen! The listing has several busses that run only a few blocks away, and these can take you to the center of the city. I recommend checking out what Moabit has to offer since there are several restaurants and grocery stories within a 10- to 15-minute walk.
Our stay in Berlin was perfect. Julian's apartment was very lovely and cosy. The kitchen had everything we needed and he let us use all the food that was in the kitchen. The bedroom (and the whole apartment) is nice and clean. The apartment is close to 3 bus stations and an S-bahn station, so transportation was very easy (pro tip: use (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) maps). There were many bars, restaurants and shops nearby. Overall, we were very satisfied with the apartment and we would recommend it.
Julian is an excellent host! He is really helpful and gave us some useful tips regarding sightseeing and events took place while our stay in Berlin! In fact, we had a last minute cancellation from another owner and if it hadn t been for Julian we would probably be homeless in Berlin! He really had to push his schedule so that he could organize the flat and bring us the keys! The flat is awesome, in a quiet neighborhood, close to the S-bahn! We loved staying there and Julian himself really made us feel comfortable!
Julian was a very gracious host. We contacted him with only a one day notice and he was happy to let us stay. The apartment was just as described and was a perfect place for the two of us. We even used his kitchen to make dinner and it had everything we needed. Julian even carried my bag up to the apartment which I very much appreciated. Would definitely recommend!
From Germany, Berlin. Studying and working for a radio station. Like to see different and new places.
