Pill Cam
PillCam SB is the most widely used, patient-friendly tool for visualization of the entire small bowel and is the standard of care for detecting small bowel abnormalities.
The PillCam SB video capsule measures 11mm x 26mm and weighs less than four grams. The video capsule contains an imaging device and light source at both ends of the capsule and transmits images at a rate of two images per second, generating more than 50,000 pictures during the eight-hour procedure.
Patients typically begin fasting at midnight the day before the procedure. The following morning the patient will arrive at the doctor's office to be prepped for the procedure. The nurse will fit the patient with a comfortable belt . After being fitted with the belt, the patient will be given a glass of water to help swallow the vitamin-sized pill. After the patient has successfully swallowed the PillCam video capsule, they will be able to resume daily activities. After eight hours, the patient will return to the physician's office with the SensorBelt and DataRecorder. The PillCam video capsule passes naturally with a bowel movement, usually within 24 hours.
The physician will then download images from the DataRecorder for review

|Original airdate:
|October 12, 2014
Shalwar Kameez is the third episode of Season 4 of Homeland. It aired on October 12, 2014.
Carrie is forced to intervene when Fara fails to recruit a key asset. Still reeling over events in Islamabad, Quinn zeroes in on a potential lead.
Episode guide
Quinn requests to quit the CIA and is given an interview to assess his state of mind. The conversation turns to the events in Islamabad where Sandy Bachman was killed. Quinn refers to a "choice" he made in regards to Sandy and Carrie who were in the car with him at the time, but doesn't elaborate. When the interviewer asks Quinn whether he and Carrie are romantically involved, Quinn gets angry and walks out of the room.
Carrie arrives in Islamabad and learns that the Embassy has been placed on lockdown. Nevertheless, she eludes her security detail as well as ISI surveillance and goes to an alternate base of operations she has established, where her trusted allies Fara and Max are waiting. Their goal is to make contact with Aayan Ibrahim. Fara makes the first attempt, visiting Aayan's school posing as a journalist from London. Aayan refuses to speak to her and leaves immediately. Fara reports back to Carrie that Aayan was "terrified". Carrie notes that if Aayan was silenced by someone, he must have valuable information.
The next day, Carrie feigns an illness in a coffee shop bathroom in order to lure Aayan to help, since he is a medical student. When Aayan enters, Carrie identifies herself as Fara's bureau chief. She tells Aayan that she knows he is in danger, and asks him to tell her his story. Carrie offers him protection as well as the option to continue his studies in England or the US. Aayan doesn't respond one way or the other. Carrie gives him her card as she leaves.
Quinn, tirelessly watching amateur video footage of the melee which resulted in Bachman's death, notices a man in a couple of the videos who is wearing an earpiece. Quinn realizes that the incident was premeditated and phones Carrie with the news. Carrie responds that she needs Quinn in Pakistan more than ever, as there is nobody else she can trust. Quinn reluctantly agrees to go.

MSP to be doubled to Rs 2000 for jawans
22 comments:
- Anonymous10:37 PM
Dear all,ReplyDelete
Army is the oldest profession after prostitution.........so come what may it will take another 2000 yrs for this profession to outlive its utility.
My sincere advise is that the Govt should go for conscription and ensure that these almighty's gift to India viz IAS guys should be made to serve on LOC for minimun 2 yrs before they start fattening their backsides and their purses in South Block !
Gentlemen lets face the fact-Army is a helpless cow which can only be milked and butchered later on.It does not have a voice in Parliament.Unlike its civilian counterparts it cannot protest cos it can't form unions.
The Govt will keep making a fool out of these poor Army guys who get fooled by lofty IMA ideals like -"Safety and welfare........"
Dear Army guys your country does' nt require you till such Kargil takes place.Pls go to dungeons for all it cares

It is true that batman culture still prevails in not only armed forces but also equally prevaling in para military forces ,police and in a modified form in railways. Whatever reason may be assigned to its existance by armymen, It is true that it canot be justified in this modren age .When you have asked for military service pay to be doubled for jawans , how do you justify paying military service pay to a jawan doing a domestic job in officers house.Keeping a batman is in fact insult to the dignity of a soldier.I am told it is prevailing in services like army bsf etc where soldiers are less educated.On the contrary in the Air force and navy this culture does not prevailReplyDelete
- Anonymous9:21 PM
batman culture is only the extention of GORA raj when they treated KALU indian jawans as their humble sevants.Ironically , army officers wife is still called MEM SAHIB.Bat man culture is indeed a national shame besides being a drain on our economy.To some estimate there would be a i lac string army of batman doing menial jobs in officers houses.Imagine if they are put on patrol duties what difference it can make.ReplyDelete

Dear Friends,ReplyDelete
This is a true story, adapted from Colonel Rajan's public lament,
a tale typical of every officer and jawan. S.S. Rajan, the son of
an army officer, joined the army with an engineering degree
and was commissioned in the corps of engineers in June 1963,
with his pay at Rs 460 per month. He served in NEFA and later
fought in the Indo-Pak war of 1971. In that war, his vehicle
was blown up, maiming and killing his comrades, but he
was lucky to escape with major injuries. He was recommended
for the Vishisht Sewa Medal on four occasions.
After over 19 years of service, he was promoted to the rank
of lieutenant colonel, whereas IAS and IPS officers
automatically become joint secretaries and equivalent on
completion of 18 years of service or less. Rajan was promoted
to colonel in August 1985 and retired after over 33 years of
meritorious service, when he had a daughter aged 15 and a
son aged 8 to take care of. He received a pension of Rs 9125
per month and got a lump sum of about Rs 10 lakh for
commutation of pension, gratuity, provident fund, army
group insurance and leave encashment — not enough to
buy even a small two-bedroom flat in Bangalore. To add
insult to injury, his pay was fixed at the "starting pay" for a
colonel plus one increment, whereas it should have been fixed
at the maximum pay eligible for a colonel.
Rajan's contemporary, R. Swaminathan, joined the Armed Forces
Head Quarters (AFHQ) Cadre as a lower division clerk. Being
in the AFHQ Cadre, he was posted in Delhi throughout his
career. He worked hard and steadily rose up the ladder, with
promotions at regular intervals and finally retired as
Deputy DG (Personnel) in June 2003. His children studied in
one school throughout. Before his retirement, his son graduated
as an engineer from IIT, Delhi and his daughter graduated as
a doctor from AIIMS, Delhi. Not being subjected to transfers he
could afford to save more.
On retirement, Swaminathan was granted pension on par with
a senior deputy secretary (IAS) and got Rs 45 lakh in cash, by
way of gratuity, provident fund, leave encashment and
commutation. This is not an isolated instance. It happens to
all military personnel. The telling effect of this true story
on the morale of soldiers and their children is obvious.
Rumblings have increased and should be heard by
the discerning, before a catastrophe occurs.

Dear civilian friends,ReplyDelete
Let me put you all in correct perspective about Army life.
An army cadet in IMA gets a Gypsy,Airconditioned rooms,Room service,he gets up at 11 am and spends 1 hour everyday to figure out as to what he should do with his "spare" time..
After having an out of the world experience at IMA all the newly commissioned Officers are posted to delhi (Only jawans and IAS officers are posted to Jammu & Kashmir) where again a gypsy and an airconditioned house plus 5 servants and 4 cooks await them at Chanakyapuri.They are posted there for next 40 years ...and yes to be honest they do have a tough time when they are sometimes sent to J&K.But they never go beyond Jammu railway station because Senior IAS Officers brief them about the latest situation at the LOC at the station itself after which Army officers with great enthusiam return to their palatial bunglaows in Chankyapuri to play cards etc.
Pls ask MOD to withdraw these God sent batmen and pay Army 4.5 times its salary as demanded in 6 th pay commission.
Also withdraw 7 star luxurious facilities like sprawling bunglaows in Chanakyapuri(from whichever Indian Army Colonel is getting that),5 batmen per Offrs,4 cooks par etc... etc... etc.
Shame on you Army Officers for having such a good time in a palce like India.Pls leave Army and find some uncomfortable job in private sector.Civilians are capable enough to handle national security.

It's shameful that private companies or PSUs who earn from Defence spendings ,get huge profits made out of defence budget,which they make sure to increase every year(This Financial year it's more than One Lakh Crore).Their employees enjoy better pay ,perks and BONUS every year which is made out of Defence budget, that too sitting and living at cushy places.However , poor Jawans and officers who don't know this game suffer year after year.Hence ,Defence/Govt spending should be linked to some kind of Bonus or incentive to be provided to it's staff, like private company/PSUs employees enjoy incentives in the form of ESOPs or commissions We should not forget the amount spent by the Govt or policies made by it and implemented by it's staff only provides tool to private/PSU companies to make profit.As Govt is a spending force and private companies grab that money by winning contracts and in turn making profit, spending of govt should be linked to some sort of incentive to it's staff as done by PSU/private players ,who give bonus out of profit.ReplyDelete

All central govt employee seem to be unhappy with the recomendations of 6th CPC.Army should not feel isolated in this regard.Though this CPC gave some benifit to army in the form of MSP albeit with relatively lesser grade pay vis -a-vis the civilian.This is due to non inclusion of rank pay of army personnel while calculating grade pay.Besides there is another area which needs a relook.CPC feels that earlier employee were getting more DA than actually admisible to them due to non revision of the base year at the time of merger of 50% DA in the basic in 2004.While calculating the fixation of new basic in the pay bands they have resplved this anomoly and mutiplied the old basic with factor of 1.74 and not 1.86.This has translated in the lesser gain in pay post revision.CPC at para 2.2.21(i) has explained the method of calculating fixation in new pay bands.The anguish of annonymous on civilan is uncalled for as they have been applied with the same wand and rather harder as there is no msp to put balm.Yes ,like in army the top two scales have stolen all the sheen .In civil scales the story is same.Remember civil is not IAS alone .IAS is a very small fraction.There are doctors , educationists,scientists and all have one thing common .Barring top two apex scales remaining scales have been nicely axed.I THINK THE COMMON REMEDY TO ALL WOULD BE REVISED FIXATION OF BASIC FORMULA USING A FACTOR OF 1.86 AND NOT 1.73.any comments plReplyDelete

Dear Army guys,ReplyDelete
The only way out of the pay commission imbroglio is to TAKE OVER this country (as suggeted by one of the bloggers)
If we can run J&K and undertake development activities under the aegis of Op Sadbhavana then we are qualified enough to stage a coup a la Gen Musharaf style and take over New Delhi.
Lets take over and rule over these thankless civilians who even after the sacrifice of so many of us still want to know as to why Siachen allowance needs to be substantial.I challenge Justice Srikrishna to spend just a week with us at Siachen.
Everybody is talking about our batman culture and the stupid CSD facility but none spares a thought about our kids life after we DIE.They are forced to run from pillar to post just because their Dad had chosen to serve the nation.
Dear civilian friend DEATH is one major factor that diffrentiates our jobs.Almost 90 % of you will retire at 60 and would have fulfilled your basic social obligations by them whereas when I retire I 'll be totally at sea.
Wake up and see what's happening on ground.People are quitting Army.There is a shortage of Army Officers at IMA /NDA and everywhere.Justice Srikrishna was expected to provide respite wheras he has just licked the backside of this Govt.

There are few good things about pay commission.New transport allowance,running pay bands are few among them.Only area of concern is lower fixation by the CPC in each band .The formula used is 1.74 times the old basic rounded to nearest 10.this results into old basic X 2.1 - grade pay.The formula should be old basic X 2.5 - grade pay.Besides the grade pay of various ranks vis-a-vis civil be adressed.Lt Col and S25 of civil are same as pay scale in 5th CPC.But this CPC has given grade pay to Lt Col only 6600 whereas for S25 scale it is 8300.Only the top 3 three scales have been looked after across the board.Besides MSP should be 10000 for officers and 5000 for jawansReplyDelete

MSP should be 50,000 Rs per month for everyone.ReplyDelete
In india the public has a very short memory.Kargil over...hence the Army can go to hell...etc etc
To ensure that an Army Guy's kids dont go to hell after his death then its better that we pay them a good salary.They are the ones who give their today for our tomorrow.I think we all owe them this much

Here all are discussing only about the Defence personnel whereas they have not thinked about the Armed Force personnel ie Central Police Organisation pesonnel who are sacrificing their lives by performing duties in hard and senstive areas. The Defence Minister is in favour of the Defence personnel only. Like the Home minister should also give his comments/suggestions to hike the salary of CPO personnel. Before implementation of the VIth pay commission the market prices have reached the peak which could not be controlled the government. Darastic action should be take by the Govt. to control the price hike in normal commodaties as well as monopolly of the House owners by raising the rents as per their wish. The Govt should also interfere in this matter and action to be taken. The committee should also keep in mind about the Central Police Organisation personnel while implementation of the pay commission.ReplyDelete

Dear Mr Sarvanan,ReplyDelete
It doesn't hurt to get your facts right before making such sweeping statements. The casualty ratio in Kargil was 1 officer for every 13 jawans. And even if it is 1 Officer for 25 Jawans now (from whichever source you got it), it still speaks volumes because the forces just don't have an officer for every 25 men, not even for every 30 jawans as authorised. In fact the true figure would be 1 Officer for nearly 60 Jawans. In addition, given the current trends of undersubscription in NDA, IMA and OTA, this ratio will only get worse.

It is being aired as a celibrity news that "MSP for Jawans are getting doubled". Why can't they say as "MSP raised from 1000 to 2000. What extra an officer is putting before the nation and the citizen, whereby he is becoming eligible elite to recieve an MSP of Rs. 6000/- comparing with a PBOR. You must see what a Technical /Admin Officer does in the elite ranks of Indian Air Force other than signing letters and signals. And when it comes into the case of a leave application of a PBOR, it sit comfortobly on his table for more than the total leave days for a signature.ReplyDelete
1000 of well trained Airmen are quitting every 6 months and 1000s of applications for premature discharge are pending in HQs.IAF is simply unable to stop the outflow of the Sergeants who complete 20 yrs bond as they cannt be shown a ray of hope by the authority to keep them remain in IAF.
These facts are nowhere mentioned. No media is covering this. When it come to Forces, its just officers, the problems of officers, the shortage of officers. Then protect this democracy with a Force consisting of only officers. When the GORA SAHIBS are gone, the lot were simply replaced by a less coloured lot. Thats was the only change occurred on Armed Forces of India Post independence. You may wonder, what IAF records when its officer get married. It scribes as "Married to a Virgin". And when its men get married, the organisation writes "Married to a Spinster". Is there a class difference between the female lot of India where an immense demand for 33% reservation for ladies going on.?????
My friends, being a PBOR u will never get anything, let it be money, let it be welfare, let it be socil status, or the least...... a humanitarian consideration from ur Saahib.
If I am wrong somewhere, pls comment upon.

Most teenagers are obsessed with junk food or media manipulated diet chart. The fast-paced life and increasing working hours is making girls choose fast foods that are ready to eat. Nevertheless, there has been a vast change in the recent years with people concentrating more on their health. Girls are becoming cautious about what they eat. A few of them even have a healthy diet that keeps them apart from the crowd.
Raw vegetables and salad top the chart when it comes to foods that girls like eating. Of course, they follow a healthy chart to ensure that they do not repeat the order more often. A salad is easy to prepare and healthy. Working women often find it simple to prepare a salad for supper or as a bite while working hours. On the other hand, teenage girls have a knack for adding junk food into their diet chart now and then. Nevertheless, they make sure that they do not overeat, which usually makes them fat.
Soup is another favorite category in foods, which girls love to eat a lot. There are a number of soup variants available in the market. Both vegetarian and non-vegetarian are prominent and hold a special place in the daily diet. Tomato soup, sweet corn soup, and she can sue the most favorite dishes.
There is a great combination between chocolates and girls. Irrespective of the page, girls love the composition and the taste of the chocolate forever.
Steak is another favorite item on the food list. Girls love eating it, which is cooked in different styles. Adding vegetables and topping with chocolate sauce is a favorite dish.
Girls love eating popcorn and would like to share it along with their friends while watching a movie. In addition, popcorn is the best snack while watching a movie. They are not worried about the carbohydrates or lower GI, as long as it keeps them happy.
The list of foods that girls like to eat is endless. Moreover, the menu changes from time to time and becomes difficult for any person to guess or have a clue about their likings. It is in the best interest of the person to ask what she truly likes to eat before ordering something blindly. Boys often feel it very difficult to play safe when it comes to dining with a girl. Having the knack to understand the taste of the girl is the priority. Secondly, it is important to make her talk about her favorite food. This will be a great way to order food, when in a restaurant. Girls are sensualists and often love food more than boys love. The good food is a great way to have good health and pamper the senses. Most girls are cautious and watch what they eat. However, when they feel comfortable around their guy and are excited, the menu changes immediately and there is endless items coming onto the table, which makes it very confusing for a person.

Beyond the Classroom
Quite apart from the enrichment and extension opportunities provided by trips and visits, it is important that girls see the relevance of their learning in the wider world. To this end we organise a whole range of excursions to museums, conferences, castles, courts and art galleries. Girls take part in field trips for Geography and Biology, pond dipping at Mop End, pondering Roman ruins at Verulamium and travelling back to Tudor Times at Sulgrave Manor, to say nothing of discovering the delights of camping on our own Cedar Lawn. In recent years our Physicists have gazed in wonder at the Hadrons collider at CERN and our linguists chatter away in France, Germany and Spain, sports teams have travelled to South Africa for a combined netball tour and charity work. During the course of the coming year our Senior House girls will be singing in New York and our intrepid team of explorers are busying making preparations for their expedition to Zambia. There is most definitely a world beyond St Mary's and we aim to see as much of it as possible!

Can the UN learn the lesson of the Shoah?
by BARRY FISHMAN
Feb. 3, 2005
When I ask people from our community who attended the UN General Assembly's first ever commemoration of the liberation of the Nazis death camps what stands out as the highlight, they all have the same answer.
Although all very important, they say it was not listening to the speakers, or that this was a historical event, or even the reception attended by many dignitaries marking the opening of the exhibit, Auschwitz-the Depth of the Abyss.
The highlight? Standing in the General Assembly Visitor's Lobby when Israel's Minister of Foreign Affairs Silvan Shalom and Israel's Ambassador to the UN Dan Gillerman got on stage and led everyone in an impromptu and rousing rendition of HaTikvah.
"It was a spine-tingling moment … marvellous to be there and sing HaTikvah on this significant and historical day," says Ottawa resident Berel Rodal.
For Mitchel Bellman, executive director of Ottawa Vaad Ha'Ir, it was "quite an experience to be singing HaTikvah with a large crowd of people in the first and probably only time that the Israel National anthem will be sung in this venue."
It was without a doubt a significant and historical day. The UN, which had passed a resolution equating Zionism with racism in the 70s and whose members continuously attack Israel in the General Assembly, had finally, after 60 years, remembered the victims of the Shoah.
During his speech, Nobel Prize winner and Holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel noted, "If the world had listened to those of us who tried to speak, we might have prevented Darfur, Cambodia, Bosnia and, naturally, Rwanda."
As I write this, Western politicians are all saying the right things - expressing their sorrow over what had happened, promising to work to eradicate Antisemitism, pledging support to Israel and working to prevent and halt genocide.
All fine words, including those from UN Secretary General Kofi Annan, who reprimanded UN members for failing to learn the lesson of the Holocaust.
Words are not enough.
As Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon noted during an address to the Knesset, the world did nothing to help the Jews during the Holocaust. Recently, the world refused to intervene and stop the genocide in Rwanda, and the Western world and the UN do not seem interested in stopping the slaughter in the Darfur region of Sudan.
Antisemitism is at an all time high. A recent report by Israeli Diaspora Affairs Minister Natan Sharansky and the Jewish Agency's Global Forum Against Antisemitism noted that in the UK Antisemitic incidents have almost doubled, and in Russia and Ukraine Antisemitism has soared.
Despite the election of Mahmoud Abbas and the lessening of tensions, a report co-authored by Ottawa's Barbara Crook and Itamar Marcus of Palestinian Media Watch, an Israeli-based organization that monitors the Palestinian media, accuses the Palestinian leadership of still promoting genocide against Jews.
The report, Kill a Jew-Go to Heaven, outlines how "the Palestinian Authority (PA) teaches an ideology of virulent hatred of Jews and Israel that mandates the killing of Jews solely because they are Jews. The murder of Jews is presented not only as beneficial to Muslims and Arabs, but as necessary for all humankind."
Yet there are hopeful signs. In a recent speech, Ariel Sharon was upbeat about the possibility of peace in the Middle East and even uncharacteristically went as far as saying, "I believe the conditions have been created which will enable us and the Palestinians to reach a historic breakthrough in relations between us, a breakthrough which would lead us towards quiet and security and - in the future - even the hoped-for peace."
The 34 UN member countries (out of 191) that took part in the commemoration seemed sincere when they spoke of learning from the Holocaust.
Only time will tell if this is a watershed moment for the UN or simply another clever public relations gesture.
Rabbi Reuven Bulka attended the event and noted that the commemoration is nothing more than a token gesture, unless the UN finally begins to act to help those in the world threatened by genocide and hatred.
"If they are going to use this as the vehicle to finally do what they are suppose to do, mainly to become the agency for removing hatred from the world and to tackle it using international muscle to stop brutal murders, then it will be fine. I hope and pray that years from now we can look back and say this event was the catalyst for it."
The greatest gift the UN can give to the survivors of the Shoah is to work for the elimination of hate throughout the world. Only then, will the world body, founded on the ashes of the Holocaust, have learned the lesson of the Shoah.

MIDLAND, TEX. — Here in ``the oil patch,`` even multimillionaires like Clayton Williams and his wife, Modesta, are hurting. They have seen their fortune suddenly plunge to $140 million from $400 million.
``We`ve just had the . . . beat out of us,`` said Williams, a leading Midland oil entrepreneur who, because of the decline in his net worth, was dropped last year from Fortune magazine`s list of the 400 richest Americans.

The folks propagating this particular myth might have an ulterior motive. After all, if you don't know what the competition is offering, how will you know if you got a good deal?
Creators of scoring formulas know that smart consumers want to shop around for the best rates, particularly on cars and homes. That's why the FICO formula lumps all mortgage- and auto-related inquiries made within 14 days and counts it as one inquiry. Furthermore, any inquiries made in the 30 days before the score is created are ignored. If you do your shopping for a car loan or mortgage in a concentrated period of time and get the loan before the 30-day window is up, you should be fine. Even if it takes a little longer than 30 days to get your loan approved, as often happens with mortgages, you should be okay if your rate-shopping was confined to a two-week period.

Apparently, Democrats are turning the convention arena into a pig pen.
I've never covered a Democratic convention, but I have covered several GOP conventions. I don't remember any scenes like this.
Buhhht, I have covered, generally speaking, lots of Democrats and lots of Republicans politicians and their aides. I can tell you that Democrats — and these are the "elite," in Washington — have fouler mouths, are always late, are more disrespectful, and often dress too informally, even sloppily. At the White House, they've all got their feet on the furniture.
Think of what the Democratic agenda is. It's mainly about jettisoning what's left of decorum and decency. It only makes sense that this would be true.

I'm looking for a document on how to setup aggregates and disk raid groups. Specifically I saw posted somewhere, and someone also mentioned it to me this week, that when their aggregate ran out of space and already had the max number of disks assigned to the raid group they had to go in and manually create a new raid group and assign it to the aggregate. Does this sound correct, I thought I read somewhere that the netapp filers handle the creation of raid groups automatically but I'm not sure. Any clarification and examples on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Solved! SEE THE SOLUTION
Let's say for example you create a 14 disk aggregate with raidsize set to 14, when the aggregate gets full and you add more disks to the aggregate the next raid group will automatically be created. Bear in mind that the minimum number of disks for a RAID DP raid group is 3 and for a RAID 4 raid group is 2.
Check out the Storage Management Guide for more info:
So let's take that example you have:
I create a 14 disk aggregate with a raid size of 14 using the following command:aggr create aggr1 raid_dp -r 14
So I now have aggr1 created using 14 available disk with raiddp in rg0 (raid group 0). I then go and add a new disk shelf and want to grow my aggragate because I'm running low on space.
Do I do this?:
aggr add aggr1 4@1000 to automatically create a new rg1 (raid group 1) made up of 4 1TB drives
aggr add aggr1 -g rg1 4@1000 to create the new rg1 (raid group 1).
(Can below even be done)
Let say rg0 isn't full but I want to create a new raid group rg1 and start adding disk to it for aggragate1
Would you be able to just add a new disk shelf and do:
aggr add aggr1 -g rg1 4@1000 to create the new rg1 of 4 1TB disks and add it to aggragate1?
Then go back and add specific disk to fill rg0
BTW GREAT document link
Data Ontap does most of the work for you so you don't need to specify rg1 as the name of the next raid group, if your existing raid group is at the size specified in raidsize and you issue `aggr add` it will automatically create the next raid group with the number of disks you specify.
If raidsize is set to 14 and you want to create a new raid group before the first one is fully populated you would change the raidsize value to the current number of disks in the raid group. You would then issue `aggr add` and the new raid group will be created. Once that's done you could set raidsize back to 14 again if you wanted.
Sorry to hijack the thread, but I have a similiar question about RAID Groups and Aggregates and didn't want to spawn a new thread.
I am new to the NetApp world and am coming over from the "other" storage vendor and the company I work for just ordered a FAS2040 unit with a DS4243 fully populated drive shelf. I have been reading through several of the NetApp documents and have seen the discussion of RAID Groups, Aggregates, and best practices come up a few times. Below is our planned setup of the disks when we receive the unit:
11 x 1 TB + 1 HSP for the first aggregate (drives in the FAS2040 "main" unit)
22 x 300GB + 2 HSP for the second aggregate (DS4243 shelf)
So from the reading I have gathered we would want to change the default RAID Group size from 15 to a size of 11? My reasoning behind that would be is stated on page 101 of the Storage Management Guide it says:
"Strorage system performance is optimized when all RAID groups are full."
Any thoughts or comments are greatly appreciated as I am hoping that I am understanding this correctly.
A very good material about it is the FAQ maintened by Jay White available at Field Portal: https://fieldportal.netapp.com/viewcontent.asp?qv=1&docid=9866
It is a very interesting FAQ talking about the new Shelves, SAS disks and how to create aggregates tuning the Raid Group Size option.
See you,
NetApp - Enjoy it!

Bullying and School Violence
October 3, 2012 at 2:00 pm 1 comment
We have watched several international and local movies where there is a bully (the "kontra-bida") and the victim (the "bida). This doesn't just happen in the movies, it happens in reality all over the world. But, unlike in the movies, sometimes the victim remains a victim. In the past 2 weeks, we have heard in local television, news about bullying in schools resulting to display of violence. The reported bullying occurred in a private school and in a public school. Hence, bullying can happen in any school campus, be it private or public, coed or exclusive, and in elementary, high school and college.
Bullying has been rampant in the United States and pediatricians have been putting efforts in addressing this problem because of its long term consequences in children. The problem of bullying among children and teens in schools is now being recognized in the Philippines because of the rising reported cases. As parents, how do you recognize if your child is being bullied or if your child is a bully? How should you react to both situations? Here is an article from HealthyChildren.org, a parenting website of the American Association of Pediatrics on bullying (AAP).
Bullying: It's Not OK
Bullying is when one child picks on another child again and again. Usually children who are being bullied are either weaker or smaller, are shy, and generally feel helpless.
Facts About Bullying
- Both girls and boys can be bullies.
- Bullies target children who cry, get mad, or easily give in to them.
- There are 3 types of bullying.
- Physical—hitting, kicking, pushing, choking, punching
- Verbal—threatening, taunting, teasing, hate speech
- Social—excluding victims from activities or starting rumors about them
Bullying Happens:
- At school—in the halls, at lunch, or in the bathroom, when teachers are not there to see what is going on.
- When adults are not watching—going to and from school, on the playground, or in the neighborhood.
- Through e-mail or instant messaging—rumors are spread or nasty notes are sent.
Bullying is Different from Fighting or Teasing:
- A bully has power over another child.
- Bullies try to control other children by scaring them.
- Being picked on over and over can make your child a victim.
- Bullying usually happens when other children are watching.
Talk With Your Child About Bullying
Even if you don't think your child is bullied, a bully, or a bystander, you will be helping to protect your child just by asking these questions:
- "How are things going at school?"
- "What do you think of the other kids in your class?"
- "Does anyone get picked on or bullied?"
When your child is bullied, talk with your child about how to stay safe. Bullies always pick on smaller or weaker children. If there is a fight, and the bully "wins," this will only make matters worse for your child.
Help your child learn how to respond
Let's talk about what you can do and say if this happens again.
Teach your child how to:
- Look the bully in the eye.
- Stand tall and stay calm in a difficult situation.
- Walk away.
Teach your child how to say in a firm voice:
- "I don't like what you are doing."
- "Please do NOT talk to me like that."
- "Why would you say that?"
Just telling your child to do and say these things is not enough. For many children, these skills do not come naturally. It is like learning a new language—lots of practice is needed. Practice so that, in the heat of the moment, these skills will come to your child naturally.
Teach your child when and how to ask for help. Your child should not be afraid to ask an adult for help when bullying happens. Since some children are embarrassed about being bullied, parents need to let their children know that being bullied is not their fault.
Encourage your child to make friends with other children. There are many adult-supervised groups, in and out of school, that your child can join. Invite your child's friends over to your home. Children who are loners are more likely to get picked on.
Support activities that interest your child. By participating in activities such as team sports, music groups, or social clubs, your child will develop new abilities and social skills. When children feel good about how they relate to others, they are less likely to be picked on.
Alert school officials to the problems and work with them on solutions.
- Since bullying often occurs outside the classroom, talk with the principal, guidance counselor, or playground monitors, as well as your child's teachers. When school officials know about bullying, they can help stop it.
- Write down and report all bullying to your child's school. By knowing when and where the bullying occurs, you and your child can better plan what to do if it happens again.
- Some children who are bullied will fear going to school, have difficulty paying attention at school, or develop symptoms like headaches or stomach pains.
When Your Child is the Bully
If you know that your child is bullying others, take it very seriously. Now is the time when you can change your child's behavior.
In the long run, bullies continue to have problems. These problems often get worse. If the bullying behavior is allowed to continue, then when these children become adults, they are much less successful in their work and family lives and may even get in trouble with the law.
Set firm and consistent limits on your child's aggressive behavior. Be sure your child knows that bullying is never OK.
Be a positive role model. Children need to develop new and constructive strategies for getting what they want.
Show children that they can get what they want without teasing, threatening, or hurting someone. All children can learn to treat others with respect.
Use effective, nonphysical discipline, such as loss of privileges. When your child needs discipline, explain why the behavior was wrong and how your child can change it.
Help your child understand how bullying hurts other children. Give real examples of the good and bad results of your child's actions.
Develop practical solutions with others. Together with the school principal, teachers, counselors, and parents of the children your child has bullied, find positive ways to stop the bullying.
In the Philippines, the Philippine Pediatric Society (PPS) Inc. also denounces child bullying in school communities. Pediatricians are encouraged to actively engage in the detection and prevention of child bullying in schools. It also recommends that teachers and educators serve as co-equal frontliners in the identification of both perpetrator and victim of child bullying by practicing vigilance and a high index of suspicion especially in picking up the "subtle" manifestations of this dysfunctional condition. Families are also advised to encourage open lines of communication with their children to facilitate an environment where an honest and open disclosure of this "hidden" problem can be made.

The Accused of the Lana Clarkson Murder goes FreeMarch 25th, 2009 - 10:34 pm ICT by GD
The evidence provided by the forensic labs provided on the murder retrial, proved that Phil Spector, the legendary music producer is not guilty of the shooting and death of the Hollywood actress Lana Clarkson, six years ago, the lawyer of the defendant told the Jury on Tuesday, the 24th of March.
The Hollywood actress Lana Clarkson was shot to death on the 3rd of February, 2003, within the premises of the music producer Phil Spector's house in Alhambra, California. Following the shootout, Phil Spector was charged with the murder of Lana Clarkson in the same month of February 2003.
The closing arguments of the five month long murder retrial began on the 23rd of March 2009 in Los Angeles. During these closing arguments, Doron Weinberg, the defense attorney made a statement addressing the jury saying that, Lana Clarkson had committed suicide by shooting herself in her mouth and that there were no traces of the defendant's DNA anywhere on the gun with which Clarkson had met her death.
Weinberg told the standing jury "Phillip Spector did not kill Lana Clarkson. That's what the evidence shows. That's what the truth shows,"
Listing 14 pieces of forensic evidence that were used by the defense during the trial, the defense attorney said, "the forensic evidence shows that Phillip Spector is innocent," Earlier during the course of the trail the defendant's lawyers had argued that Lana Clarkson was depressed over her film career as a B-movie actress, and was falling into pieces and this lead to her suicide.

Commencement Date: Aug
The impact of design solutions on people's lives is constantly growing. Hence pursuing a design education today means acquiring the thinking capacity and necessary creative skills to shape the future, especially that of society, with human needs as the key driving force. Whether it's visual information, innovative objects for everyday use, or simply improving the way people move, behave and interact in public space, the aim of Diploma in Design Communication Programme is to enable its students to make the salient difference in exploring and developing effective solutions to real‐world issues and needs. Its vision is to have its students' creativity and originality make unexpected and meaningful connections between different professions; not just the classical disciplines of graphic design, advertising and illustration. Regardless whether it's about engineering the next "fish" to address the issue of overfishing or creating a phone application for a growing population with depression, students in Diploma in Design Communication Programme will be taught to think differently and to brave the world with their ideas and solutions to better living.
Given the programme's unique blend of Asian and Western cultures and influences, you will be part of a unique and dynamic learning community and collaborative environment, contributed by multi-disciplinary partnerships amongst programmes and faculties, and with the creative industries. Comprising studio practice, contextual studies and technical studies modules, your time spent on the programme would be a time to prepare yourself for a world that constantly demands creative ideas, initiative and collaborations. The programme's forward-thinking curriculum endeavors to prepare creative and unique designers, who are starting their professional careers in widely varying places and in an increasing number of corporate and social sectors.
In Level 1, you will share some common modules across the Diplomas and you will also take discipline-specific modules. The shared modules aim to provide you with a comprehensive grounding in the basic creative processes, art and design fundamentals, technical and academic skills essential for your progression to Level 2 and Level 3. The discipline-specific modules will introduce you to core knowledge and skills required as the first layer to your specialist areas.
In Level 2, you will be taught technical and design skills specific to Design Communication with a directed approach, which encourages reflection and an understanding to design. These essential skills, which you will acquire through group and individual project briefs, are closely aligned to the demands of the design industry.
In Level 3, you will undertake modules, which may include self-devised/directed studies or projects. You will be tasked to problem-solve and articulate ideas through a variety of briefs. There will be self-initiated industry placements and/or live projects learning component designed to assist you in gaining an accurate understanding of the design industry associated with Design Communication.

Hark Thrice
The celebrated jumping editorialist of Madison County, Virginia, Hark Thrice has written for the Reader since his death in 1910.
- German chancellor dies in gun accident
- Monday, August 8th, 2016: German men denied asylum in Britain and deported from France, often become victims of gun violence, BBC and Reuters report.
- Republican President must keep Roosevelt's word
- Monday, December 7th, 2015: Even if a future conservative president doesn't believe Americans of Japanese descent are disloyal, says Irwin Stelzer, he should think twice before rescinding President Roosevelt's Executive Orders. The President's honor—and the nation's—is more important than politics.
- Nothing to Queer but Queer itself
- Monday, November 23rd, 2015: You're just being paranoid, America. Nobody's forcing you to take part in gay marriage or forcing your children to approve of transsexuality. Just let them be themselves and they'll leave you alone.
- Why firing bad teachers won't make room for better ones
- Monday, August 25th, 2014: Bad teachers provide an immense service to this country. You don't see private industry firing bad workers. The best companies are the ones that have the most bad workers.
- Republicans ram civil rights past Democrats
- Wednesday, May 20th, 2009: Advocates of civil rights are poised to win a Congressional victory that eluded them under a Republican president.
- Kennedy using straw-man arguments in speeches
- Thursday, March 23rd, 2006: When a politician uses straw-men, he kills some part of the world. Hark Thrice examines the use of straw-men by presidential candidates.
- Not at Our Expense
- Monday, October 31st, 2005: Hark Thrice's classic column decrying book reviews in the New York Times.
- A New Crime
- Friday, July 31st, 1998: On July 1, 1998, Maureen Dowd rhetorically asked her New York Times readers, "How would Hark Thrice skewer Kenneth Starr on Larry King?" The question is an odd one, because Mr. Thrice would never appear on Larry King. He writes for us, and has, ever since his death.

While the idea of having an international teaching job can be inspiring and exciting the reality is there is a lot of work involved too. Yes you will have fun, see new places and meet new people, and have a chance to have an impact on the education of children in a different country. But there are some things you need to know about if this is really something you are seriously interested in pursuing.
Looking for an International Teaching Job
There are a number of places you can consider that are popular amongst international teachers, Central America, South America, North Africa, Asia Pacific and The Gulf for example. Be sure to take advantage of one or more educational recruitment companies who hire for schools around the world. They can all be found online with a quick search. Just choose which ones you want to register with and make sure you are clear about the kind of position you want to work in. The staffs at such places have a great deal of experience matching the right teachers to the right international teaching positions and will be able to do the same for you.
If you choose to look yourself for a job make sure you research the establishment, what its goals and commitments are, what accreditations it has and if there are any reviews from other teachers.
In these jobs, you will be paid to travel accordingly and can help enlightening students. Find somewhere that is professional and what kind of conduct of behavior they have with the hiring and treatment of foreign teaching staff.
Also be sure you understand exactly what the job entails, what responsibilities will you be expected to take on as well as teaching, for example will you have to take on an after school club? Lead a curriculum subject? Your focus needs to be on the students' educational, emotional and physical well being. You need to be sure you can handle disciplining a class in a foreign country.
Most international teaching jobs will expect you to be well groomed, dressed appropriately, speaking appropriately and eager to teach. You will need to have a degree in teaching with ideally a minimum of two years teaching already under your belt. You also need a valid passport. In some cases as well as getting a teaching position with a good salary you will be offered accommodation, health insurance, airfare, holiday pay and so on.
A contract will be made by the management for you to negotiate and agree upon. Usually a service agreement is for a two year period but should you want to change that, it is something you could discuss with them. The management would take care of all the necessary paperwork including the work permit. Interviews are carries out over the phone and via video conferencing like Skype. If you are chosen you would then need to send any requested paperwork like qualifications, references, photos via scanning, emails or courier.
Benefits and salary
There are many different types of international teaching jobs to be found depending on what you are looking for. You could join the public system in a different country, teach English in a private school, teach at an international school for expat children, work in a university teaching English to local students and so on. Out of all the options though the better paid position is usually to work in an international school.
Globally there are estimated to be over 4000 international schools so there are often job openings that come up and need to be filled. However salary is not the only thing that makes international schools stand out as an option. Other benefits these schools can offer include:
- Housing provided for you often in a housing complex or an apartment, or an allowance that covers your rent paid to you monthly on top of your salary amount. Sometimes you might even find housing that costs less than your allowance leaving you with a surplus you can keep.
- An end of contract bonus which basically means to keep you there for the entire duration of your contract they will pay you a bonus when you reach the end of it. This financial incentive can be negotiated but usually ranges between 10% to 15% of your salary.
- Your flights going to the school's destination and going home when the contract is done are paid for. Since some flights can cost in the thousands depending on where the school is, this can be a big saving.

Bucksburn band President Gus McAskill said "The 2017 concert will be once again at the Aberdeen Beach Ballroom, after the Grade 1 ScottishPower Pipe Band played the first show there last May. "The general feedback was that the sound and facilities were amazing," McAskill added. "There isn't a restricted seat view or bad sound anywhere in the ballroom. It's a spectacular venue for a pipe band concert. Bucksburn are excited to have Boghall back in Aberdeen for our seventieth anniversary year."

A cerebrospinal fluid leak (CSFL) is a medical condition when the cerebrospinal fluid of a person leaks out of the dura mater.
There is a incomplete sealing of the dura mater and is a major complication of intradural procedures.
CSF leaks have been traditionally classified as traumatic or non-traumatic.
Non-traumatic CSF leak may be spontaneous in the absence of obvious cause, such as skull base abnormalities or bone erosion related to tumors or hydrocephalus 1) 2) 3).
This can be caused by several reasons, including spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid leak, post-surgical lumbar puncture (iatrogenic), physical trauma, etc.
It is a common complication of surgery involving the lumbar spine.
While high CSF pressure can make reclining unbearable, low CSF pressure due to a leak is often relieved somewhat by maintaining a supine position.
Posttraumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage.
Spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid leak or nontraumatic.
Cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea.
Pediatric cerebrospinal fluid leakage
Spinal cerebrospinal fluid leakage
Cerebrospinal fluid leak after vestibular schwannoma surgery.
Cerebrospinal fluid leak after endoscopic skull base surgery.
Beta 2 transferrin, is almost exclusively found in the cerebrospinal fluid. It is not found in blood, mucus or tears, thus making it a specific marker of cerebrospinal fluid, applied as an assay in cases where cerebrospinal fluid leakage is suspected.
(111)In-DTPA RIC images were taken at 0, 1, 3, 6, and 24-h after radioisotope injection following the current protocol. Regions of interest (ROI) were selected on 3-h images to include brain, spine, bladder or the whole body. The accumulative radioactivity counts were calculated for quantitative analysis. Final diagnoses of SCH were established based on the diagnostic criteria recently proposed by Schievink and colleagues.
Thirty-five patients were focused on. Twenty-one (60.0%) patients were diagnosed as having SCH according to the Schievink criteria. On the 3-h images, direct cerebrospinal fluid leakage sign was detected in nine of 21 SCH patients (42.9%), as well as three patients with suspected iatrogenic leakage. Compared to non-SCH patients, SCH patients showed higher bladder accumulation at 3-h images (P = 0.0002), and higher brain clearance between the 6- and 24-h images (P < 0.0001). In particular, the 24-h brain clearance was more conclusive for the diagnosis than 24-h whole cistern clearance. The combination of direct sign and 24-h brain accumulation resulted in 100% of accuracy in the 32 patients in whom iatrogenic leakage was not observed. 1- and 6-h images did not provide any additional information in any patients.
A new simple ROI setting method, in which only the 3-h whole body and 24-h brain images were necessary, was sufficient to diagnose SCH 4).
To avoid cerebrospinal fluid leaks and related possible complications, the dura mater should be meticulously closed after craniotomy procedures. Several techniques for duraplasty and different material for watertight closure have been described.
A plastic dummy with a balloon was developed to test the efficacy of the watertight closure of the dura. The technical notes to reproduce the method have been described.
The described model represents a new, simple, effective and affordable device to be used for neurosurgical training in the procedures of duraplasty and to test the efficacy of watertight closures 5).

Freeclaim Solicitors: 12 Year Olds at Highest Risk of Being Involved in Pedestrian Accidents
A study conducted last year found that 12-year-old children are most at risk of being killed or seriously injured in a pedestrian road accident.
Freeclaim Solicitors has a track record of success in road accident claims and has been dealing with compensation claims relating to pedestrian accidents for over 25 years.
A study conducted last year found that 12-year-old children are most at risk of being killed or seriously injured in a pedestrian road accident.
The study looked at the annual number of road accidents per 10,000 of the population in Britain, broken down into age groups, and the results showed that there is a dramatic spike in road casualties amongst 12-year-olds.
Critics have blamed this in a lack of road safety awareness programmes currently running in primary schools.
Commissioned by the Parliamentary Advisory Council for Transport Safety (PACTS), the Stepping Out report was delivered to Transport Secretary Patrick McLoughlin in May 2013, and also highlights a postcode lottery when it comes to pedestrian accidents involving children.
Darwen in Blackburn, Lancashire was found to be the most dangerous area, with a 50 per cent higher risk of child pedestrian casualties compared to the national average. This compares to the lowest average of 11 per cent, in Westminster, London.
Meanwhile, when it comes to all ages of pedestrians, the London borough of Newham is the most dangerous, with pedestrians at double the risk of being involved in a road accident compared to the national average.
Regardless of age or location, road accidents involving pedestrians are all too common on Britains roads. Unfortunately due to the circumstances, such accidents can cause serious, life threatening injuries. When a person is involved in a road accident as a pedestrian, and the accident was the fault of the other party (or even if the pedestrian was partly to blame), they may be entitled to compensation for their injuries.
Freeclaim Solicitors has a track record of success in road accident claims and has been dealing with compensation claims relating to pedestrian accidents for over 25 years. They have an expert team of serious injury lawyers who understand the devastating consequences of such accidents.
The firm comes recommended by the prestigious Legal 500, and also have membership of the Law Societys Personal Injury Panel, the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL) and Headways Brain Injuries Association Personal Injury Solicitors List, amongst others.
If you or a loved one has been involved in a pedestrian road accident, and you think you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries, get in touch with Freeclaim Solicitors today to speak to one of their legal experts.
