Campaigners, including Sonia O'Sullivan, are raising awareness for pulmonary hypertension.
Pulmonary hypertension is a lung condition in which there is increased pressure in the pulmonary arteries that travel from the heart to the lungs.
"Pulmonary hypertension is a very rare disease. There are only about 300 patients in Ireland with PH. We are constantly trying to make people aware of it because often it can be mistaken for a less serious illness," explained Regina Prenderville from the Pulmonary Hypertension Association.
The Association is based in Mater University Hosptial, Dublin.
The campaigners are hoping to inspire people to get active and get 'breathless' to raise awareness for the condition.
Ms O'Sullivan went to school with Christine Coakley, a PAH patient.

Chapter 17
Clamming Up
After loitering in the market aimlessly for some time, I reached home late and went straight to bed.
I woke up with a start at the door of my room being knocked hard. I was shocked to see it was almost 8.30 – very late. Karthik opened the door and I heard their mumbled conversation – why so late, what happened to breakfast, have I already left for work?
I was surprised when he told his mother that I was asleep and I needed it. There was a pause. "Appa needs breakfast on time, you know that," his mother said accusingly. If I were not angry with Karthik, I would have made him move aside and rushed to the kitchen. But I had to cross him and when angry, I refrained from touching him even casually. So I held back.
"It's okay, you can make upma, we will also have that. Or, better still, make some porridge for appa and you. I don't think she is going to get up till lunchtime."
I almost shrank with shame as I guessed he was being sarcastic. I waited for him to close the door, and then I was in the bathroom, quickly brushing and letting the water fill the bucket to finish my bath. He was back in bed, though, when I stepped out. He watched me from there. I avoided looking at him.
I picked up the phone near the bed and dialled my father's number. "You there or do you have any plans to go somewhere?"
I was abrupt. But my father almost gasped hearing my voice. We hadn't talked to each other in a while. "Where have you been! I have been getting worried. Of course I am here if you are coming. What about Karthik? Is he also coming?"
I took a deep breath and said, "No. I will be going to office and will drop in in the evening. I don't think he is working today. I am late, bye."
There was no reason for me to go to work. But I didn't think I would be able to face my father without clearing my head first. Or spend an entire day in this house that no longer felt like home.
Karthik broke into my thoughts as if on cue, "I thought we could spend some time together."
"I haven't seen my dad in two months," I replied almost reflexively.
"I haven't seen you in ages too!" he exclaimed sitting up, his voice edgy.
I didn't reply at first. Without meaning to be ironical, I finally said, "We have all the time in the world. I get to see my father only on some weekends."
I turned my back to him pointedly and quickly packed a set of extra clothes and my brush while he brushed his teeth.
"Aren't you coming home tonight?" he asked, seeing my bag.
"Home! I am going home…" my voice trembled. Instantly, I regretted yet another slip, another trigger. Tears welled up. "I am tired Karthik. I need a break," I said in a broken voice.
He was silent and I was about to leave when he clasped me to him. I so wanted to put my head on his chest, but resisted the urge and tried to free myself. Without letting me go, he said, "If you are not in a hurry, I will drop you at work. Then, after lunch, I will pick you up and drop you off at your father's house."
"You may have better things to do? And, it is not like I haven't done this."
He kissed me, and I held back, refusing to give in.
"I am sorry for all that is happening…"
I shrugged. How did it matter? Nothing was going to change.
"Why didn't you tell me about what Usha's son asked you."
Colour drained from my face.
He stroked my head and said softly, "Why do you take shit from my people, even if they are my people? Why didn't you tell me?"
"There is no point in saying anything," I said, breaking away from him finally. "If you are dropping me, then get ready quickly, or I am leaving."
He nodded. "Yes, time for us to leave."
I didn't understand what he meant then.

River Parishes
The River Parishes are those parishes in Louisiana between New Orleans and Baton Rouge that span both banks of the Mississippi River, and are officially part of the rather large Acadiana region. Traditionally they are considered to be St. Charles Parish, St. James Parish, and St. John the Baptist Parish. These parishes also made up an historical area once referred to as the German Coast of Louisiana.
Two of the River Parishes, St. Charles and St. John the Baptist, are also part of the New Orleans metropolitan area, based on the U.S. Census Bureau definition. The third River Parish, St. James, together with Ascension Parish, was known historically as the Acadian Coast. Ascension Parish, sometimes included as part of the River Parishes sub-region, is home to the River Parishes Community College, chartered in 1997.
The area contains a large number of architecturally-significant historic plantation homes.
The three traditional parishes have a combined land area of 1,939.04 km² (748.67 sq mi). They have a total 2000 census population of 112,332 inhabitants. If Ascension Parish is included, the total land area is 2,694.10 km² (1,040.198 sq mi) and the census population is 188,959.
Its four largest communities are all unincorporated census-designated places: LaPlace, Luling, Destrehan, and Reserve. Its two largest incorporated cities are actually located in Ascension Parish, which may not be considered by some to be within the community: Gonzales and Donaldsonville. Another sizable community within the traditional parishes is St. Rose, also unincorporated. Still smaller in population, however, are the largest incorporated towns in the three-parish area: Lutcher and Gramercy. The largest of all communities in this region is LaPlace in St. John the Baptist Parish.

FPLH's GW 19 Team*
Transfers: Robson-Kanu (OUT) / Sidwell (IN)
*FPLH reserves the right to change this team at any time. Any changes made will be confirmed on FPLH's Twitter and Facebook accounts.
Team Reasoning
Looks like my team changes from last week were half successful. Bringing in Luiz and recommending him worked out a treat. However my purchase of Tevez (c) didn't come good against a dire Reading team, where as the player I sold (Fletcher) did in fact score. Despite my captain only bagging 2 points, I scored 65 points overall and can't complain with the much needed bounce back.
For the boxing day fixtures (GW19), I realise that some regular first team players across the board will be rested. Naturally this means that my bench could come into play and I am confident that I have reasonable subs at hand. Moreover I am lucky that I have no Arsenal or West Ham players as their fixture has been postponed.
I decided to buy Sidwell due to a number of reasons. Firstly, he is a key member of Fulham's first team. Despite only being a central midfielder he has scored a credible amount of goals in the league so far this season (4). I am confident he will start in Fulham's next two matches, which are reasonable:
GW 19 - Southampton (H)
GW 20 - Swansea (H)
Sidwell tends to do well at home against non-elite clubs. In fact all 4 of his goals were scored at home. This is good as I can easily alternate him with confidence when he has an away fixture. In addition his bonus points accumulation this season has been impressive - 10 bonus points, 11th best for a midfielder. A better record than the likes of Arteta, Hazard and Silva!
All the above is amazing when you see that he is only priced at £5.1M. I have never been a fan of his, but I now see a pattern with him and I like it. He won't score week in week out, but he is the perfect pick for certain home matches, as is the case now!
As for my captain I have opted for Van Persie, even though I fear that he could be rested. In which case Michu should kick in for me against Reading.
Recommended Player for Gameweek 19
Steve Sidwell
Likely to start upcoming matches, unlike some other players.
Less than 3% ownership makes him a differential.
At £5.1M, he is definitely a steal purchase!

Tuesday night's Democratic presidential primary debate began with a spoof-worthy intro from CNN that framed the race for the nomination as a competitive reality show. Hillary Clinton was "The Front-Runner;" Sen. Bernie Sanders was "The Surprise Threat;" Lincoln Chafee, Jim Webb, and Martin O'Malley were euphemistically called "The Political Veterans." It was absurd.
O'Malley got hit hard early on, with a question from moderator Anderson Cooper about his time as mayor of Baltimore, and whether his aggressive (sorry, "assertive") law-enforcement policies led to the April riots.
"The current top prosecutor in Baltimore, also a Democrat, blames your zero-tolerance policies for sowing the seeds of unrest," Cooper began. "Why should Americans trust you with the country when they see what's going on in the city that you ran for more than seven years?"
To begin with, O'Malley made the mistake of trying to correct the reference to State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby, which prompted Cooper to go to the actual quote, which is even more devastating.
O'Malley then noted "that arrests had actually fallen to a 38-year low in the year prior to Freddie Gray's tragic death," (proving what?) before launching into a tortured defense of his policies, concluding that he "improv[ed] police and community relations every single day that [he] was in office."
Cooper then challenged him on Baltimore's massive arrest numbers, prompting lawsuits from the ACLU and NAACP. O'Malley quickly redefined the word "settled" and dished out some spin and finished with this: "It was about leadership. It was about principle. And it was about bringing people together." (In jail?)
Here's his response almost in full:
Outside of those few minutes, O'Malley didn't have to squirm too much. And in fact, he got the opportunity to unload on Sanders for his record on gun control.
Unfortunately, even when he's saying the right things, it's hard to get past O'Malley's stage manner. With its uncanny mix of rehearsed lines and misplaced emotion, it's far from presidential. He has also played the underdog so completely that he can come off kind of bratty.
For instance, one of the debate's more cringe-worthy moments came when O'Malley tried to pivot away from Clinton's email scandal (once Sanders had basically declared it over) to call out DNC chair Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, who has refused to schedule more than six primary debates.
"Look how glad we are to actually be talking about the issues that matter most to people around their kitchen table," he told Wasserman-Schultz from the stage. He elicited some applause, but it also made him look petty.
O'Malley didn't make any grave mistakes (he didn't even trip up on the #BlackLivesMatter question) and was even able to get more than his share of time on the mic, but his only real zinger was at the expense of Donald Trump. Talk about low-hanging fruit. All in all, he still looked like a beta wolf compared to Clinton and Sanders.

NYC Criminal Attorney Discusses Retrieving Property Back from the Police
As an experienced NYC Criminal Attorney, clients often ask me about how to get property back from the police. If you're arrested in New York and there's property taken from you, that property would be invoiced on a Property Clerk Invoice, and you are entitled to get that property back as long as it's not evidence in the case or some kind of contraband.
The officer should have given you an invoice like a receipt and you should be able to get that property back as quickly as the next day.
Are you having trouble getting your property back from the police? Contact our NYC Criminal Attorney for advice.

Saving souls one city at a time
For 10 years, touching lives and saving souls one city at a time all across America has been the goal for Time to Revive ministry, "Project 52."
Time to Revive ministry, a non-denominational, non-profit organization has a different way of reaching out to people, traveling across the country with its Mobile Baptismal which is equipped with everything needed to perform a baptismal.
On his way to Abilene, James Stewart, of Rochester, Ind., along with Ken Peacock of Smyrna Baptist Church, recently stopped by the Citizens Journal to spread the news about the thriving ministry."I would say that we are equipping the Saints for Christ's return. The church has left the building," said Stewart. "This ministry has changed my life forever. We have been a part of thousands of lives changed, and every day God uses us to train people, disciple and baptize."
Ten years ago, when Time to Revive was just beginning and didn't even have a name yet, founder and CEO Kyle Lance Martin and wife Laura, could never have imagined how God would grow this tiny ministry. Currently the ministry has teams in six different states actively running, partnering with communities to pursue revival and equip the saints for the return of Christ.
Martin's unique desire was to engage with people directly in their own environment, as well as through media and public speaking. He believes there is hope for the nation, and it begins with prayer, as well as stepping out into the community and sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
This 52-week discipleship program pursues its mission to a targeted city, and only with an invitation to do so. When the invitation by an individual or group is extended, a "scouting trip" is initiated to the city to determine the Lord's desire for the ministry to pursue revival there.

Years ago I received a highly coveted promotion that required me to oversee a branch that I had left years before. Although I felt a bit like General Douglas MacArthur returning to the Philippines, I wondered what was expected of me in the new post. Recently I read a very insightful article by James E. Challenger of Challenger, Gray and Christmas, Inc. Mr. Challenger is President of one of the top executive search firms in the country, and an industry expert. He had some very useful advice.
When you are given a promotion, your company has certain reasons why they chose you over other employees. And when you are put in the position, it is up to you to figure out what needs to be done, and execute quickly. Some questions you should consider are:
Is there a problem to be fixed?
Am I maintaining a department or region?
Do they expect me to completely recreate the operation or start from scratch?
How will success be defined?
When you are given the promotion, people who will be reporting to you will be anxious about what changes will occur. As Mr. Challenger points out, until these people find out what is in store their performance will suffer. So it is advisable to quickly let everyone know what your expectations are. This will allow you to set course quickly, and avoid having to refute rumors that get started. Be quick and clear with your leadership plans to avoid problems.
Once you are working on making your changes, support your staff and get them working on your side. Support risk-taking. If you have staff members who are willing to try something new, even if it doesn't work--you will have staff who are willing to support you. Also give your staff a chance to get to know you through informal gatherings where they are able to ask questions and learn from you. If you nurture an environment of learning and change, your staff will help you realize your goals.
If you have been promoted up through the ranks you face a unique challenge. While your role changed, so did the dynamics of the relationships you had with your colleagues. People you used to work side by side with are now reporting to you. You have to decide if they will be your allies or your adversaries. Although you may not think so, you do not need to be liked by everyone. You want to build trust and respect, and show your employees that you value their contributions. This will give you a hard working staff.
Now the tough part. If anyone on your team can't support your transition, you may have to let them go. It's never fun, but part of the job.
And don't apologize for getting the promotion. Your hard work and talents got you there, now put your experience and commitment to work to bring you more success.

First, prepare your template. Fold parchment paper in half and trace half a heart. Turn over and draw the remaining half of a heart. Then lay your second parchment over the first and trace the heart. Place on sheet pans with pencil side down.
Preheat oven to 180 degrees.
Meringues: Put the egg whites and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk, and beat on high until firm – about a minute. Turn mixer down to low and slowly add the sugar, and beat until you see firm shiny peaks – about 2 minutes.
Remove bowl from mixer and sift cornstarch onto the white, add the vinegar and vanilla, and
fold with a rubber spatula.
Mound half the mixture onto the middle of the hearts and with an offset spatula smooth the egg whites out to the edges of the heart and level the top.
Bake for 1.5 hours, turn off the oven and let set until cool – about an hour. The meringues will be crispy on the outside and soft and chewy inside.
Whip cream with sugar until soft peaks. Gently fold in 2-3 TB of lemon curd – if you like tart, add more.
When ready to serve: Mix cut up berries with berry puree. Place one meringue on a platter (flat side down), top with whipped cream/curd mixture spread to edges, top with second heart.
Drizzle with lemon curd and serve with berries on top!
Couple of hints: if it's raining or very humid, these meringues may "sweat" and deflate a bit.
So choose a dry day to bake. Do NOT refrigerate, as they will leach fluid/sweat. Keep meringues at room temperature in a dry area until ready to serve.

Mliswa on grand coalition: I am better off alone
By Staff Reporter
Independent legislator for Norton constituency Temba Mliswa on Wednesday disclosed that his focus was on the Norton electorate who voted him into power after he triumphed into victory against Zanu-PF candidate Ronald Chindedza last year.
Addressing journalists during one of his regular media briefings in the capital, the Norton legislator suddenly made a u-turn after having made some remarks two weeks ago when he said he was still at pains to decide whether he should contest in Norton constituency or in the former Hurungwe West.
Mliswa said the people of Hurungwe West had pleaded with him to register as a candidate for the constituency ahead of the 2018 general elections.
"In terms of Hurungwe West and Norton that's deep, I was there, a lot happened they still want me and miss me but I'm representing Norton right now and I want to focus on Norton, it's quite humbling though that they still want me", Mliswa said.
The former Zanu-PF provincial chairperson for Mashonaland West lost by more than a thousand votes margin against Keith Guzah in the by-elections that were held in 2015 following his expulsion from Zanu-PF. Guzah scored 5 961 votes against Mliswa's 4 239.
Cases of violence and voter intimidation were reported before the elections forcing some villagers to seek refuge in the neighboring areas.
Though, cases of violence and vote-buying were reported in Norton Mliswa won against his former masters. Observers have linked Mliswa's Norton to the current factional fights that left the party torn apart.
After Mliswa's victory, President Robert Mugabe blamed Minister of Local Government Saviour Kasukuwere for imposing Chindedza whom he described as a well-known thief.
The opposition also made claims of having contributed to Mliswa's victory but he rejected the claims.
Asked whether if he was going to join any coalition or political ahead of 2018, Mliswa said he was better off alone and was going to stand as an independent candidate.
Mliswa has on several occasions scoffed at the opposition's effort to forge an alliance against Mugabe in the 2018 elections. Mliswa hinted that Morgan Tsvangirai should go alone in 2018 and shun uniting forces with Joice Mujuru whom he said her party had no representation in parliament.

App review- VSCO
Threat Level- Moderate
VSCO is an app developed by a company called Visual Supply Company. It appears this is the only app they currently have running actively on the Apple IOS App Store and Google Play store. They describe their self named app VSCO as the standard of mobile photography. So you are probably asking yourself, what is a picture editing app doing on a social media app review site. Let me explain.
Sometimes apps you find on your child's devices will be photo or video editing apps. Kids love adding filters to their photos, effects or stickers to their photos before posting them to their favorite social media apps such as Twitter, Instagram or Facebook. We have seen over the years with Instagram and Snapchat the addition of filters inside the app so that the user does not need to use other apps on their phone to add or change the photo such as VSCO offers. This is a popular trend. However we cannot forget about those stand alone apps such as VSCO that have social ties to them. There are other popular photo sharing sites or apps such as photobucket and Imgur, but they offer storage for pics more than many editing features.
VSCO is a free app available on mobile markets that takes photo editing and storage to the next level. You can identify apps that have social ties versus the ones that don't usually by the need to create an account when you first launch them. As you will see in VSCO, you are encouraged to login before you use editing features. The wording of this app to encourage an account when you first open it states-
'Create and publish your grid, journal and collection- find and follow other creatives in our community.'
This login process that is encouraged and sometimes required on some apps is because they want to give you a great photo editing experience, but want you to save your account online for other people to view. They offer free storage for these photos, but your children need to make sure these pictures are not shared as public. The features inside the app allow for excellent photo editing, exploring other photo editors and the ability to share and follow other people that use VSCO, just make sure they are not sharing public photos of themselves if you find the app on your child's device.
Each VSCO account has a link to the users page where all their photos can be shared and viewed. You will see sometimes on Twitter profiles or Instagram profiles a link to the users VSCO account. You will recognize it as a link similar to this
Of course this is not an my actual VSCO account, but an example of what you will see in users social media profiles linking their VSCO account. I have seen Instagram accounts where the user has done great job on locking their account down to only friends being approved being able to see their photos and then having a link to their VSCO account on their profile page being wide open with hundreds of public pictures just a click away without any approvals. This is what you must watch for and look at on your child's account.
I gave this app a moderate threat level due to the social ties of this app. Make sure your child's VSCO account is not wide open for anyone to pull their photos online. All you have to do is pull up their VSCO account online or follow their link if they have one in their other social media profile pages to see if you can openly view their photos. Openly discuss this app with them and make sure they understand what photos they are sharing and how they are doing it before they get to involved with using this photo editing, social media app. This is a great app for editing, but make sure the social side of sharing is locked. I have seen on several accounts, the user not knowing the account is locked down and it being an innocent error, but innocent errors could lead to your child's pics being open on the Internet. We do not want our children's pictures shared publicly.

Mark Sanford, a Republican from South Carolina, is not ready to get on the Donald Trump train and he is going after his conservative colleagues who have decided to put their beliefs aside to get a few bills signed. The former governor of South Carolina is slowly revealing himself as one of the loudest critics of the 45th U.S. president on the right. In a fascinating piece in Politico, he paints the New York billionaire as the "undoing" of everything he knew to be true in life.
The headline from the major profile is that Trump has "fanned the flames of intolerance." Sanford also finds problematic the complicated relationship the new president has with the truth. In Trump's unique world view, things he does not like are fake, and everything he does is the best.
There is an extensive list of things that the real estate tycoon has done that have rubbed Sanford the wrong way. The father of four, who destroyed a very promising political career because of a cheating scandal in 2009, believes that Trump's penchant for lies is not good for the country.
Sanford said he misled his followers on the murder rate in the country and the coverage of terrorist attacks by the media. The president's behavior at the National Prayer Breakfast, where he spent a lot of time attacking Arnold Schwarzenegger over his "Celebrity Apprentice" ratings, was also not appropriate. The biggest problem for the Republican is that Mr. Trump does not seem to ready to endorse the role of president.
Moreover, he blames people like House Speaker Paul Ryan for not rebuking the president more forcefully. Sanford explained: "I admired his conviction in the campaign. At the end of the day, radio silence is not sustainable in being true to yourself."
The title of the article is interesting, "I'm a Dead Man Walking." Sanford insists that he does not have anything personal against Trump, he met him once, and has even heard positive things about him from acquaintances the two men have in common. This is just a business assessment.

TROY — A multiple-vehicle crash in Troy resulted one woman being taken to the hospital on Wednesday afternoon.
Troy police, fire, and medic units responded to the 1500 block of West Main Street around 3 p.m. on the report of a crash with one vehicle on its top.
Witnesses believed there were three vehicles involved. One of the vehicles, driven by an elderly female, overturned and landed on its top. Bystanders and Troy medics were able to assist the woman in exiting her vehicle. Police say the woman, whose name had not been released by Wednesday evening, was at fault in the accident, and will be charged.
She was taken by ambulance to UVMC for treatment. Another medic unit was called to check out the drivers of the other vehicles.
Troy police continue to investigate the crash.
West Main Street was closed while the crash was investigated and cleared with traffic being re-routed around adjacent streets.

I love this movie, which has one of the most romantic scenes I've ever seen, and it doesn't involve young people or new love. The stories we write and record seem obsessed with new love, which is definitely a glittering wonderful thing. But I think old love can be more beautiful. I'm looking forward to it.
(I'm not 100% on the image yet – the colour balance and saturation isn't quite right. Let me know if you've any thoughts on what's amiss! Or maybe I'll just play with it a bit more)

Due to the lack of action from the EU Commission defining maximum levels for vitamins and minerals, as was foreseen in the directive 2002/46/EC, more and more Member States are setting their own maximum levels. After Belgium, Norway, Denmark, Italy, and France, now the Spanish Council of Ministers has approved a decree containing maximum levels for vitamin and minerals and "other substances". Germany has not yet legally defined maximum levels, but the BfR has suggested safe levels (read more about it here). Looking at the maximum levels of the different Member States, the values differ considerably, hindering the free movement of goods in the EU. The EU Commission is still planning to find a harmonized solution; however, this will certainly take several years. In the meantime, food business operators have to rely on the Mutual Recognition process (more detailed information below).
a&r comment: If you are interested in an overview of the existing maximum levels in the different Member States, please contact us.

Investors may get an unpleasant surprise when they invest in French stocks, even those listed overseas like U.S. The U.S ADRs of French companies are affected as well. There is a French Transaction tax of 0.3%. Is this hefty tax applicable to the sales of French securities as well? So, there will be a total transaction tax of 0.6%?
One more question. How can an investor whether a U.S ADR is a French company from its name? It will be good to place French securities on a lower priority due to this 0.3% French Transaction tax. There are plenty of alternatives elsewhere.

Are Uranium Stocks a Good Contrarian Play?
Investors sold stocks in January as they worried about the impact of an unusually harsh winter on the economy. Stocks were also propelled higher by a turnaround in some of the riskier parts of the market. Internet, biotechnology and small-company stocks all rebounded after dragging the market lower in March. Company earnings, already at record levels, continued to grind higher. Even an escalating conflict in Iraq that pushed up oil prices in June wasn't enough to stop stocks from rising.

Job vacancies are on the rise in Alberta and the average hourly wage offered by employers is also climbing, according to Statistics Canada.
The number of unfilled jobs in the province rose by 3,600 in the first quarter of 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, marking a 9.3 per cent increase.
"This was the first year-over-year increase for Alberta in the number of job vacancies and the job vacancy rate since the first quarter of
"Increases in vacancies for full-time positions accounted for 59 per cent of the year-over-year rise in total job vacancies."
Compared to two years ago, however, vacant jobs are still few and far between.
Back in the first quarter of 2015, there were
The average hourly wage offered by employers looking to hire also grew to $21.40 at the start of 2017, a 7.3 per cent increase from the year before.
Nationally, the average offered hourly wage grew by 2.8 per cent to $20.40.
"Changes in the average offered hourly wage can reflect a variety of factors, including wage growth and changes in the composition of job vacancies by occupation, by sector and between part- and full-time positions," Statistics Canada noted.
All this data comes from the federal agency's quarterly Job Vacancy and Wage Survey.
Statistics Canada said it lines up with the data it collects as part of another measure, the Labour Force Survey, which is used to track employment and unemployment levels.
All told, the agency said it points to "improved
"Following notable declines from the fall of 2015 to the summer of 2016, employment has increased while the unemployment rate has trended downward since November 2016," Statistics Canada said.

Fields are nearly full for Roxbury distances races
Registration is still open at www.roxburyraces.net for the Roxbury marathon. The race is limited to 100 runners.
The half-marathon already is full and building a waiting list while the marathon had more than 80 entrants as of Sept. 24.
Only the first 100 runners to register for each of those races would be allowed to run since the host Roxbury road race series can only accommodate that many entrants.
If the 100-runner limit were to be reached for the marathon, a waiting list would be maintained.
Registered runners who later find they are unable to run the race would be asked to notify race management as soon as possible so their places may be taken by other runners.
The signup will remain active until the day before each race.
There will be a $10 entry fee for the half-marathon, slated Nov. 12 at 8:30 a.m. The fee can be paid that morning from 7 to 8:15 a.m.
The marathon will be held Dec. 10 at 8:30 a.m. The $10 fee can be paid that morning from 7 to 8:15 a.m.
Both races will start and finish near Hurlburt Community Park on West Apple Lane.

Dandara is another new entry into the strange relatively new subgenre of Soulsvanias, and yes, it actually does use the core mechanic of Dark Souls instead of just comparing itself to Dark Souls because it's difficult.
Despite the potential experience loss, it's not really that tough either. It's not easy either, but it's definitely not as punishing as Dark Souls. There are some tough enemies, some of which require some pretty furious dodging, but they're not as frequent and you'll come to learn that many of them can be quickly death with by letting off a quick missile spam barrage.
Bosses are a different matter, sometimes requiring multiple attempts to get their more complex patterns down, but even then, even the toughest boss here isn't going to make you pull your hair out like Dark Souls. The big, "real" bosses are pretty impressive in how creatively their environments and attacks are designed, but unfortunately there are very few of these boss fights to see here.
There are only 3 big boss battles to be found here. There are technically several other boss fights, but all those ones feel more like mini-bosses at best and can usually be taken out with little to no effort using the standard missile spam technique that you can deal with all the normal enemies with.
No, the real enemy in Dandara is the environment itself. See, in Dandara, you can't run or jump in the standard manner. Instead you move only with directional leaps from one white surface to another. This leads to a lot of twisted gravity-defying environments, which are weirdly both the best and worst things about this game.
The plus side is that there are some really well-designed levels that make great use of the leaping mechanic by forcing you to adjust your way of thinking about navigation a little in order to find your way through what will initially seem like some pretty complex mazes.
On the other hand, this can get very disorienting. Rooms tend to rotate a lot as you make your way through them, but the map doesn't rotate with you or show your position in a room, so in a lot of the many rooms with multiple doorways, it can be difficult to tell which one you're actually standing at. Finding your way through this world can get a bit confusing later on too, as you'll run into a lot of areas where it can be pretty unclear if you're supposed to come back later because you need an item you haven't found yet or if the difficulty has just randomly spiked and you just have to deal with it.
At around the mid-point of the game there will be so many branching paths that unless you get lucky, you'll be spending an uncomfortable amount of time doing a lot of trial and error and backtracking just to figure out where you're even supposed to be going, and it can be a little frustrating.
In a way, I suppose that's fitting with the theme of the game though. It's all very surreal and directionless, as if you're in some perpetual dream state. The plot is so vague and obtuse that it might as well not even exist. You're either going to have to like the gameplay and the feel of the game enough to motivate you to continue, because you sure aren't given any other reason to.
This is not to say that I didn't like the game though. It does have its problems, from those mentioned above to the severe lack of variety in weapons and items. It feels amateurish in ways, but it's clear that these are some very talented amateurs. While not perfect, it's still an impressive and fun debut from Long Hat House, and I am interested to see what they come up with next.

I was overactive for 6 months, then Endo persuaded me into RAI treatment. This was approx 2years ago went under very quickly and been on Levo ever since.
My question is that at no time was Graves or Hashimoto's mentioned to me.
I assume that because I have no thyroid now ( I assume ) that it's not Graves,so how do I know about Hashi's?
I have never been well on Levo but Endo is the "you are in range, so you should be feeling well".
When asked about alternative to Levo he said there was nothing.
If I had found this site then, I could have fought my corner so to speak!
Incidentally he is on Louise's list of Endos as having prescribed T3, so maybe my face didn't fit :·(

I have been unable to find a function in matlab or octave to do what I want. I have a matrix m of two columns (x and y values). I know that I can extract the column by doing m(:,1) or m(:,2). I want to split it into smaller matricies of [potentially] equal size and and plot the mean of these matricies. In other words, I want to put the values into bins based on the x values, then find means of the bins. I feel like the hist function should help me, but it doesn't seem to.
Does anyone know of a built-in function to do something like this?
I had intended to mention that I looked at hist and couldn't get it to do what I wanted, but it must have slipped my mind.
Example: Let's say I have the following (I'm trying this in octave, but afaik it works in matlab):
m=[x, y];
If I want 10 bins, I would like m to be split into:
m1=[1:2, 1:2]
m5=[9:10, 9:10]
m6=[10:11, 10:-1:9]
m10=[19:20, 2:-1:1]
and then get the mean of each bin.
Update: I have posted a follow-up question here. I would greatly appreciate responses.

"An obsession with shapes serves as a leitmotif as Frank Lloyd Wright (1867–1959) grows to be a master architect… Neal's stylized illustrations are geometrically anchored, with crisp lines and shapes that occasionally echo Wright's signature patterning, and the earnest, informative narrative centers the subject's relatable interests. Substantial supplemental materials include an author's note, sources, and multiple photos of his work." — Publishers Weekly
'This picture-book biography captures how Frank Lloyd Wright revolutionized the American home. Lyrical text recalls Wright's early passion for architecture and his desire to break away from the old European-style houses he felt didn't match the American landscape. Digitally enhanced mixed-media artwork not only reflects colors that match Wright's moods and physical locales, but also uses geometric shapes to embody his concepts. This look at Wright's creative process will inspire children to take notice of their surroundings." — Booklist
"In this picture book biography of architect Frank Lloyd Wright, Rosenstock emphasizes the development of Wright's unique architectural vision… instead of focusing on specific buildings Wright created, this book highlights the roots of his thinking… an excellent introduction to the ideas behind Wright's architecture." — School Library Journal
"This very early introduction to the pre-eminent architect starts with his childhood, rich with prairie influences and a fascination with shapes… a compact narrative… makes clear the impact one person's vision can have. Mixed-media and digital art combines childlike crayon-effectlines and textures with crisply stylized shapes; Neal stealthily builds up the pre-Wright landscape as cluttered with gingerbread houses, arrestingly interrupted with the bold horizontality of an early Wright building. This may help give weight to kids' early play or open up their considerations of their own landscapes…" – The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

What a beautiful fall morning welcomed us as we headed off on our hike at Myakka River State Park. As we arrived to the park, we were greeted by a flock of wild turkeys. It was a joy to see them scurrying around the forest alongside the road. We arrived to the trailhead early in the day and soon we were on our way. There would only be three of us for the hike and we would be walking to one of the furthest primitive sites on this trail.
The trails at Myakka River State Park are generally easy to traverse, so we were very surprised to see all the damage to the trails caused by feral hogs that have more than invaded this area. This made hiking quite difficult in the oak hammock as we started off our day. It was not long before we came across a small yellow striped rat snake warming itself in this dappled sunlight. Though it was late in the year and the cool evenings would have been reason for many critters to take to their winter dens, we did see a wide variety of spiders, and other insects along the trail. Paul was quite a character to have on the hiking trail with us and he kept us quite entertained. Wildflowers were still blooming out on the open prairie; we were stunned by the bright yellows and purples that greeted us. It seemed to take a very long time to reach the Oak Grove campsite as we were on the prairie for hours. Being in such wide open spaces can really be difficult on bright sunny days. We do not suggest this hike be done in the summertime.
After taking multiple breaks we eventually arrived again at the oak hammocks on the far side of the park. We knew we are getting close to our campsite. Out on the prairie we saw very little damage from the feral hogs in this area, but as we came back to the oak hammocks and so did the evidence of hog population in this area. It was pleasantly cooler in this area in soon we were viewing a young doe nibbling leaves just off the trail. She did not seem bothered by our presence and after about 10 minutes we left her as we found her, continuing down the trail. Upon arriving at the campsite we quickly set up and began the task of collecting water and cooking dinner. Ellie collected firewood and soon we had a wonderful fire going. The sun dropped quickly over the prairie and we enjoyed the hours we spent around the fire telling stories and reliving the day's experience. In the evening while we slept we heard the calls of coyotes, the hogs out along the prairie roads dueling over territory, the board owls calling to each other, and as the clouds drifted away our tents will illuminated by moonlight.
After a chilly evening we enjoyed a welcome hot cup of coffee and a quick breakfast we were on the trail again. We decided to avoid the marked trail and take the old railroad grade further down and pick up the trail near power line road. We had spent enough time the day before fighting through the overgrown trail and the loose footing cause but many hogs. It was not long after we started hiking that we saw a truck coming up the road. We were greeted by members the Florida Trail Association. These volunteers had arrived to do trail maintenance and soon all the overgrown trail that we have fought to traverse would soon be cut back and made easier for future hikers.
Though we had had little rain there were still many portions of the trail and road that were under water and we did get our feet wet on this hike. As the day had gotten so much warmer stepping into the puddles was actually refreshing. We saw many animal tracks along the trails and roads. Myakka is full of wildlife. We saw sign of bobcat, coyote, deer and hogs. The variety of bird life in this area is astonishing. We saw wood storks, hawks, turkey vultures, meadowlark, and many others.
Myakka Trail includes 38.9 miles of loop trails there many backcountry roads that crisscross the park as well as the old railroad grade. There is a selection of horse trails for equestrian enthusiasts. Many trails can accommodate the day hikers or bicyclist. Backpackers will love the many varieties of trails available to hike. The trails are well marked and maintained throughout the year. If hiking in late/fall early winter you may find high grasses prior to annual maintenance by the FTA. You must also always be wary of snakes when the grass is a high. Insects can be a problem if the weather has been wet, you should always be well prepared. When hiking this trail always carry water map compass and wear appropriate sturdy footwear.

June 15, 2019 06:21 PM
BRIGHTON, N.Y. (WHEC) — Gray Henderson was headed home from work with a Syracuse license plate frame on his Honda Accord one April afternoon.
That afternoon the Brighton resident was given a ticket by New York State troopers for a peeling license plate.
"The frame was covering maybe 50% of the New York, but in terms of the lettering only one of the letters was peeled," Henderson said.
Henderson says the trooper gave him a ticket for something he's never heard of before.
"Saying that the license plate was lose, insecure or dirty...and he gave me a ticket," Henderson said.
He replaced the plate right away taking proof to Stafford Town Court, but he still paid $140 in fines.
"We were proactive about it but still has to pay some sort of monetary fine," Henderson said.
News10NBC reached out to the State Department of Motor Vehicles to ask how often people come in to fix peeling plates. In response in a statement, a spokeswoman says, "Customers may return their license plates for a variety of reasons, which the DMV does not track. However, the number of returned plates remains low compared to the approximately 12 million New York license plates on the road."
We also asked New York State troopers how many tickets are issued for peeling license plates. A spokesman told News10NBC they don't track that number either.
The state DMV has been replacing peeling plates since 2014. A spokeswoman says "All vehicle owners in New York are required by law to ensure their license plates are legible, and if plates are no longer legible it is their responsibility – at no cost to the owner - to exchange them."
Henderson wants to warn others to help avoid the hassle and the fine...
"I think that if they're going to enforce something they should make it widely known," Henderson said. "They should probably publish it or make some sort of Service Announcement...that's the first time I've heard that."

Take the slow road…and enjoy the scenery. Take the slow road…and enjoy all the beauty life has to offer.
Yes, there are times when we need to have a sense of urgency and we need to move fast. But that is not every single time. Notice how often you are in a hurry to go nowhere. We get ourselves into the habit of moving fast and then we think it applies to everything in life.
But it doesn't…
Remember that and don't let life pass you by in one big blur.

Cruel Maniac Covers Puppy In Super Glue. But Then Rescuer Decides To Save His Life.
Meet Pascal, an incredibly brave little puppy who has endured the worst that humanity could throw at him, yet is still fighting for his life. Pascal was brought to an animal shelter in a cardboard box, a victim of horrific animal abuse.
Reportedly, a group of kids plastered the puppy with glue just for sport, and the result nearly took Pascal's life. When rescuers from He'Art of Rescue came to collect Pascal from the shelter, they were shocked to find a statue of cement with a terrified puppy trapped inside.
Naturally, Pascal was in pain and absolutely terrified of what would happen to him next, but he allowed rescuers to begin the painstaking process of removing his matted fur and gently cleaning his skin. He slowly licked his wounds, hope glimmering in his eyes.
Tests later revealed that Pascal did not have any contagious diseases, and is doing okay on pain medicine and antibiotics. He is fighting off an infection, and though it will be a slow process, rescue workers are confident that he will improve.
"The treatment for his skin continues. Meanwhile, he quickly became the star of our clinic! Look at him!!! He is PERFECT!" reported the He'Art rescue team.
While Pascal's physical body is on the mend, his soul is in desperate need of healing, which will come with time and continued nurturing. He is in good hands now, learning that not all humans are cruel.
"Although Pascal has been cleaned from the horrible chemical, the incident left a huge scar in his soul," He'Art rescuers reported. "It is in his eyes, in his posture, in his lack of trust for people…He is being flooded in LOVE, love that can heal everything."
While Pascal's background brings people to anger and outrage, his future holds hope. While difficult to watch, Pascal's story can prevent future animal abuse as parents and grandparents teach their children that harming an animal is never okay.
According to psychologist Joni Johnson, childhood animal cruelty can be a red flag that the child has been abused himself, or is acting out in response to domestic violence witnessed at home. If a child in your life exhibits behaviors of cruelty toward animals, consider seeking out professional assistance to bring healing and wholeness to the child.
Thankfully, many kind-hearted animal lovers are donating to Pascal's medical expenses and offering to adopt the pup once he's ready for a forever home. Pascal is a brave little fighter, and no doubt will soon begin to thrive, thanks to the kind souls who are caring for him.

Veterinarians are an important part of your pet's life. Sure, your family is more important, but the vet plays a vital role too. The vet not only makes sure your cat or dog is healthy but also helps them feel safe in environments where you might not be able to help them. For example, you won't be there when your pet is spayed or neutered. It's the veterinarian and their assistants that help them feel loved and protected during surgery.
Veterinarians have an interesting job. They get to see so many cute animals on a daily basis. Of course, they also have to do some things on the job that most people don't have to do. They cut off a lot of testicles. They get bitten by their patients much more than the average doctor. And sometimes, they have to deal with unpredictable situations like exotic pets or farm animals.
It seems like many days are an adventure when you're a vet. They often don't know what the day will bring. Maybe that's what gives them their killer sense of humor. Because, as you can see from this list, they're nailing it.

: THIS ESTABLISHMENT IS CLOSED Not for any ordinary Joe, the popular Joey Bistro atop the Carriage House presents superb cuisine and a dazzling view of the Strip. The mirrored ceiling and dim lighting reflect the romance of a bygone era, framed photos and paintings of renowned Joes (such as DiMaggio, Namath and Montana) adorn the walls. A TV lounge with plush sofas and chairs divides the main dining room from the stylish bar and dance floor. For dinner, Joey bread (a warm, sliced Italian loaf) is presented in a bag, with virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar for dipping. Italian wedding soup or the tasty house salad precedes chef de cuisine Brett Chumley's savory entrées. Vitello mamma---sautéed veal scaloppini stuffed with thinly sliced prosciutto---is a Joey favorite. The Lotsa Pasta menu has guests creating their own favorites from among six pastas and six sauces for a very moderately priced dinner. We love the oven-roasted pistachio-crusted halibut topped with a light pesto cream sauce. The list of California and Italian wines that includes nine by the glass nicely complements the imaginative fare. For kids 12 and under, the Junior Joey menu offers six entrée choices. The warm chocolate lava cake is among sweet temptations that appeal to all ages. For diners whose name is Joe or Joey, dessert is on the house.

The proposed "Billy Joel Boulevard" is closer to becoming a reality.
Republican Assemblyman Michael Montesano of Glen Head sponsored a bill to rename the portion of Route 107 that runs through Nassau County in the Town of Oyster Bay. In addition to his place in Sag Harbor, Billy Joel lives in Oyster Bay.
According to Montesano, Joel has expended a great deal of his time and resources to boost the economy and aid the residents of Oyster Bay. The Hicksville native opened a motorcycle shop in downtown Oyster Bay, 20th Century Cycles, which many feel has brought more foot traffic and jobs to the town. He has also helped raise awareness for organizations such as the North Oyster Bay Baymen's Association, Friends of the Bay, and the annual Oyster Bay Harbor Cleanup Day.
Joel was featured prominently in a benefit concert to support Superstorm Sandy relief. On top of all of that philanthropy, Joel is Long Island's only six-time Grammy award-winner and has recorded 33 Top 40 hits.
The bill did not make it to the governor's desk in 2014, but the legislation was reintroduced in 2015 and passed the New York State Senate last week with the help of sponsor Senator Jack Martins of Mineola. Now it must pass the Assembly before it can go before Governor Andrew Cuomo for his signature.
If passed, the bill would take effect immediately, and the stretch of Oyster Bay's South Broadway between East John Street and West Old Country Road will forever be the Piano Man's.

Bee-ware, Teddy-bear!March 26, 2012 at 8:48 pm | Posted in Australia, Gardens, Nature, Society | 8 Comments
Tags: bees, food production, pollination, teddybear bee, varroa mite, world food shortage
You learn something new every day.
This morning, my husband saw an unusual insect. It looked like a bee but he had never seen one like it before. He caught it in a glass jar and brought it inside. We opened a google search and came up with the goods. It was a Teddybear bee.
"Covered with dense red-brown fur, the teddy bear bee is one of Australia's most appealing native bees and can provide you with a real teddy bears' picnic in your garden."
Teddy Bear bees are native Australian bees, one of the ten groups of Aussie bees. Within those groups, there are over 1,500 species of native bee.
I was really surprised to find this, as I had always thought there was only one basic group of native bees in Australia, and that these were small, stingless and being wiped out by the European honeybee.
A little more information from the website:
Most species of these rotund furry brown bees are 7 to 15 mm long. They build shallow nest burrows in soft soil and sometimes nest underneath houses. Each female builds her own nest burrow but many bees may nest together in the one location.
It was difficult to assess the size of our bee, but it was at the larger end of that scale, a little bigger than a 'normal' honeybee. That was what made us interested to find out what it was.
I have been mulling over why we should see these bees now, after never having seen one before. Over the last year or two, we have noticed a decline in the number of European honeybees around the blossoms of our native trees.
There is a world-wide decline in honeybee numbers, due partly to the parasitic verroa mite. However this mite has not yet entered Australia; we are the only content free of it at present, though it is closing in on us. Other factors are obviously at play here.
But whatever the cause of the local downturn in honeybee numbers, I think that reduced competition from these introduced bees could possibly lead to a resurgence in our native bee populations. Apiarists are also increasingly breeding and using stingless native bees for food crop pollination.
What is not in doubt is the importance of bees to the world food supply. Honey production is only a tiny part of the bee's value. Most crops for human consumption and stock raising must be fertilised by bees, and these account for a huge percentage of the world's food production. Without bees, we would have a catastrophe of incalculable proportions on our hands.
You will be pleased to know that, as soon as we discovered what our captured insect was, we released it unharmed into the garden. I am so pleased to know that we have real Aussie bees in our area again, and we will watch out for them from now on.
Do you know what the bee situation is in your region? Have you ever considered the ramifications of bee loss to food production around the world?

Foundations are made of reinforced concrete. The horizontal supporting structure is made of reinforced concrete, whereas the vertical one comprises metallic pillars. This gives the building robustness and endurance, as it is the most important part of building because it supports the whole building.
The exterior facade is finished with a single layer of mortar, with areas covered with other suitable facade-friendly materials and lacquered aluminium joinery; this gives the building an elegant, good-quality look. Indoors, walls are lined with a combination of plaster boards and glass fibre (PANELSYSTEM type) and thermal insulation in the chamber, thus getting excellent indoor finishing and magnificent exterior thermal and acoustic insulation. It is possible to finish the facade with EIFS (exterior insulation and finish system) (webertherm or similar) over ½ foot brick; the exterior is finished in acrylic, with areas covered with other suitable facade-friendly materials and lacquered aluminium profiles; this gives the building an elegant, good-quality look. This minimizes the heat bridges which, in the light of the high CTE (Spanish Building Code) demands, are of paramount importance for an energy-efficient house. Indoors, walls are lined with a combination of plaster boards and glass fibre (PANELSYSTEM type) or laminated plaster, thus getting excellent indoor finishing and magnificent exterior thermal and acoustic insulation.
A fl at inverted roof will be set up, finished with ceramic ti les or gravel, depending on whether it is walk-on or not, respectively. Rain water is drained, with an overflow fitting to avoid problems in case of blockage.
A combination of plaster boards and glass fibre (PANELSYSTEM type or similar) has been chosen for all dividers, which grants perfect finish and enhanced acoustic insulation.
It is made of lacquered aluminium, with high-quality profiles and heat bridge breakage for double glazing (climalit type), which gives security, energy savings and sun control. The windows are sliding, hinged and ti lt-and-turn as per design and have aluminium blinds. The safety rails of outdoor terraces and the deck area on the roof are made of security tempered laminated sheet glass, which combines the most avantgarde aesthetics with the top security features.
The front door is reinforced, mounted onto the side walls. The door has lacquered wood inside and a security lock; outside it is finished with suitable facade friendly materials. Internal doors are manufactured following the most advanced technological laminated sheet procedures, which guarantee the necessary robustness, and are finished in lacquered wood. The houses have big wardrobes in all bedrooms, which are fully finished with drawers and shelves, designed for easy cleaning.
The living room has been designed to be a nice, luxurious place, which allows for different decoration styles to be chosen by each family. Walls are painted in plain colour, which reveals the impeccable finish of the supports and gives a feeling of space to the rooms. Ceilings are finished in white paint to enhance the room brightness. The kitchen is integrated with the living room and will have top and bottom furniture, the latter ending in a porcelain top (this material is well known for its resistance and good quality). It will be fitted with glass-ceramic cook top, oven and a cooker hood. Walls will be shaped with rectified ceramic tiles. The public areas will have rectified ceramic flooring, which gives a quality touch to the house and a cosy feeling of well-being to the dwellers. If you are away and want to disconnect the electrical supply to the house, the fridge can still be left on, as it has an independent power point from that of the electrical installation of the rest of the house.
Rectified ceramic flooring has been used with skirting boards matching the tiles, thus creating a very warm, cuddly environment. Paint is plain on walls and the ceiling to give a sensation of space and brightness.
Flooring and tiling for this bathroom will comprise rectified ceramic tiles, which gives a distinguished, elegant touch. We have set up a shower with a crystal shower screen. The sink is mounted on a cabinet. Bathroom fittings will be Roca or of similar quality. Single-lever taps will be set up, which gives the room a quality, stylish look.

Bathroom fittings will be Roca or of similar quality, with single-lever taps.
Rustic tile flooring is the style chosen for these areas.
For the house to be thermally comfortable, an air-to-air heat pump has been installed with highly efficient outdoor units that serve the house through glass fibre ducts. The system is controlled with a chronothermostat for optimal air intensity and temperature regulation.
The cold and hot water pipes are high mounted, under the suspended ceilings, for easier localization; they will be plastic to prevent corrosion. Also, this material allows for eliminating scaling, thus extending the installation's useful life. Domestic hot water is produced by a solar battery connected to a rooftop solar panel, so that solar power is used for heating the water. The system has an electric back-up unit in case the contribution of solar energy is not enough
A switchboard will be installed with independent circuits for the washing machine and the dish washer. Therefore, they can be used together as long as the power demanded does not exceed the contracted supply. Also, independent circuits will be set up for the fridge and the alarm system, with separated protection so that they can keep working if the installation in the rest of the house is disconnected because you are away. Switches and trimming covers are nice-looking.
Sockets for TV, FM and telephone lines will be set up in the living-room, the kitchen and all bedrooms. GARAGE The garage is not connected to the house; it can house one vehicle. It can be accessed through an automatic pre-lacquered metallic tilting door. The vehicle slots can be accessed through an automated, single-pane metallic hinged door; the corner slots are accessed through sliding doors.
Each house has a private swimming pool with its own filtering equipment.

The construction and materials are controlled by a certified independent lab.
Ten-year free-of-charge insurance coverage on the construction is included for the buyer. * Credited amounts are checked.
