When you "settle for" anything, you are accepting second best or something that is inferior to what you really wanted – because you have limited options, or what you want is not possible.
2. If I ask for a pineapple juice when I am at a restaurant, and they don't have any, I usually settle for an orange juice.
3. If you can't get into the course at university that you really want, you may have to settle for something similar… or even consider studying another career. Sometimes life doesn't work out the way we want or expect.
4. What brand names do you have to settle for because the product that you want is either not available or much more expensive?

Roberto would you be able to add special effects on the camera when is turned on? If so let me know... If you don´t understand what I mean check the night vision app (it's free)
I have an idea on some simple concepts - email me when you have time.
How about a calculator page? I have an app idea where someone can type a quantity and then the app figures the amount and then totals all that you've added. What do you think? Thanks! Liz
Kind of...
It would have a list of items and the person enters the quantity that they have of each item, then behind the scenes the app multiples the quantity they've entered x a specified factor in the app.
The best example i have is I have an app where I enter my mileage. The app multiplies my mileage times a number, then gives a total. I can then email the worksheet to myself.
I want to do that but with something different than mileage.
Does that make any sense at all...?

Other steps: CMS will also call on high-risk beneficiaries to makecertain they are receiving the equipment they need, and for which Medicare isbeing billed. And CMS will be implementing a national Recovery AuditContractor (RAC) program to check for overpayments on Medicare Part A and PartB claims. A six-state, three-year RAC demonstration project yielded $900 million in recoveredoverpayments and discovered $38 million in underpayments to providers.
Additionally, CMS is consolidating the work of Medicare'sprogram safeguard contractors, and the Medicare Drug IntegrityContractors with new Zone Program Integrity Contractors.

The Walking Dead Comic vs. the Show: Similarities & Differences
By Giselle Defares
AMC uses the framework of The Walking Dead comic but creates their own zombie world.
The toe-curling tension of the postapocalyptic zombie world in AMC's The Walking Dead has locked in fans and casual viewers ever since the show aired its first episode in 2010. The gory show is based on The Walking Dead comic books created by Robert Kirkman with illustrations from Charlie Adlard. The ongoing comic book series is now in its 14th year and has 170 issues, while the show has seven seasons and a moderately successful spinoff show. Both mediums enjoyed unprecedented commercial success and are now firmly established in pop culture. In light of the season eight premiere, let's analyze the show and look at some noticeable differences from the comic books.
As with all book-to-TV adaptations, the story lines of the comic books and the show overlap. However, there are both minor and — some would say — dramatic differences between the comic books and the show. The general structure is fairly the same: The Walking Dead is set in a postapocalyptic world and centers on former Sheriff Deputy Rick Grimes, who wakes up from a coma and realizes he lives in a zombie apocalypse. He becomes the leader of a group of Atlanta survivors who try to survive in the new world while protecting themselves from the zombies, aka the "walkers," and from attacks by other groups of survivors.
In seven seasons, Rick Grimes has led his group of survivors from Atlanta to fragile safety. They travel and find refuge on Hershel Greene's farm, which becomes swamped with walkers. The group find a haven in a grimy prison but get engaged in a war with the fortified town of Woodbury and its leader, the Governor. The group becomes separated, but they reconnect and encounter crazy cannibals. After a long trek they arrive in the seemingly safe Alexandria, but there's trouble within and outside the community. On one of their scavenger trips, they meet the Hilltop community, who offer supplies in exchange for help against an extortionist community. This leads to a gruesome collision with Negan and the Saviors and then to the ultimate fight for power.
The nature of television demands that writers keep viewers on their toes and create several twists and turns per season. The changes in the plot or the introduction of brand-new story lines were often a result of either a financial or creative decision, viewer feedback and even pressure from diehard fans. These circumstances altered certain aspects of the show when compared to the original material. Here are some of the differences between The Walking Dead comic and the show.
Alternative Story Lines
In the past seven seasons AMC proved the show has a life of its own and the trajectories of the characters may differ from those of the comics. Several core characters' personas have subtly changed, or they've become whole new characters. One of the shining examples is Carol Peletier, who has (arguably) the largest character arc deviation from the comic. Carol transforms from a suppressed and abused housewife into a calculating survival pragmatist who will kill people — infected or not — if they threaten the group at large. Think "Just look at the flowers, Lizzie." However, in Issue 42 of the comic, she dies by suicide by walker.
Other examples include Lori Grimes' death in season three. For many fans TV Lori became slightly annoying as a result of her contradictory behavior in the first two seasons. In the comic the Grimes family are together longer and she's present until Issue 55. Her daughter Judith is still kicking it on television after seven seasons (!) but in the comic the baby dies with Lori in prison.
Just like Carol, Andrea undergoes a huge change from the page to the screen. In the comics she's in her 20s, ends up in a relationship with the much older Dale and adopts orphaned twins. When the group arrives in Alexandria she's in a relationship with Rick (see Issues 102 to 167). Comic Andrea has adventures for 13 years, but TV Andrea doesn't have the same fate. TV Andrea is in her 30s and is a wishy-washy character who ultimately can't decide between Woodbury's and Rick's groups. She takes her own life in season three after she receives a walker bite.
Rick's group aren't the only survivors of the zombie apocalypse, and they frequently come in contact with outsiders. In season six they meet the Wolves. In the comic Alexandria is threatened by an outside group called the Scavengers, first introduced in Issue 75. The Scavengers are quickly defeated, which leads to Rick's overconfidence in handling Negan and the Saviors. In the TV universe the Wolves have a weak backstory, which is luckily resolved by the end of season six.
New Characters
While The Walking Dead comic is filled with fascinating characters, it's sometimes necessary to introduce original characters purposely created for the show. Characters such as Beth Greene, Herschel's youngest daughter and Maggie's sister, or Alexandria's gender-swapped leader Deanna Monroe, serve as counterparts to established characters. Other characters are brand-new (see Sasha and Noah). Most often these characters are destined to fade into the background, but that cannot be said about one addition who has an immense presence throughout seven seasons: the antihero Daryl Dixon. The crossbow-wearing, motorcycle-riding vagrant became so popular that hard-core fans created merchandise bearing the slogan "If Daryl dies, we riot."
In The Walking Dead universe death is omnipresent, and it becomes harder for fans to use the comic as a litmus test of how their favorite character will survive. Take, for example, the offscreen death of Carol's daughter Sophia, who was discovered as a zombie in Hershel's barn. In the comic Sophia is still healthy and alive. Then there are the swapped deaths of Tyreese and Hershel. In the comic the Governor beheads Tyreese, not Hershel. TV Tyreese dies after a walker bite.
However, Issue 100 of The Walking Dead comic reveals one of the most horrifying and haunting deaths in the comic history. The scene, featuring Negan and his Saviors, shows Glenn die at the hand of Negan's barb-wire-wrapped baseball bat, Lucille. For some reason, the showrunners decided to bait the viewers and controversially ended season six on a cliffhanger before they dragged the scene out in season seven.
Romantic Relationships
Besides the action, gore and small bits of humor, there's still time for romantic relationships. Some couples were directly transferred from the page to the screen (see Maggie and Glenn). In The Walking Dead comic Rick becomes intimate with Andrea, but TV Rick starts a relationship with the kantana-wielding Michonne in season six. Show runner and writer Scott Gimple had the relationship planned out since Michonne's introduction in season three. All is fair in love and the zombie apocalypse.
The Walking Dead season eight premieres October 22 at 9:00 p.m. on AMC.

"BioFuels 21" LLC
Hello dear visitors of our site.
We have created a firm "Biofuels 21" LLC for the production of alternative fuels and recycling of waste products processing sunflower oil and rice.
In Russia, more than 70% of the waste production is filled ravines, burned or simply thrown away, thereby polluting nature, harming the environment.
We decided "to kill two birds with one stone": improve (at least some) environment, create jobs and improve the budget (pay taxes).
Besides all this, pellets and briquettes, which are made out of sunflower husk and rice husk during combustion does not pollute the atmosphere and thus have a positive effect on the environment.
In the use of alternative fuels (instead of gas, diesel fuel, coal, etc.) a lot of advantages for the environment! It is necessary to keep us all together irreplaceable resources of our earth!
Bioenergy and the Contemporary World
We are pleased that among the many sites on Bioenergy you chose us.
Our production Quality is in the Krasnodar region of Russia.
In our region grow rice, sunflower and other agricultural crops. After the processing of rice, making oil from sunflower, there is a lot of waste.
We were able to establish small-scale production of pellets from rice husk. But the possibilities for raw materials - rice husk - 200 tons per day! We produce only 20 tons per day.
Because we are looking for an investor who is ready to work with us to increase the production of rice husk pellets up to 200 tons per day.
There is another problem - the market for such a large number of rice pellets.
But for rice husk has many solutions.
Since rice husk consists of silicon (up to 75%) is an ideal embodiment of processing preparation of Monocrystalline silicon wafers.
The area of application of Monocrystalline silicon wafers is very large. But this plant for deep processing of rice waste is very expensive. Therefore, we invite interested businessmen to visit us and negotiate a joint venture.
Our work - We make all efforts in obtaining the land, obtaining all necessary permits, construction of the plant, keeping the plant in operation, recruitment and training of personnel.
Your work - free money you invest in this business.
Profit share 50/50.
If you have any alternative suggestions, please contact me.

(Minor spoilers ahead.) I unexpectedly saw Quantum of Solace yesterday, after my regular dance hall was (somehow) unavailable and we didn't fancy going back home. The cinema was surprisingly empty but for the people behind us, who were either worried about deep vein thrombosis, had taken a deep dislike to my chair, or were silently yet vigorously bonking. I didn't want to look.
Regarding the film: clearly the well of megalomaniac villains had dried up, but in itself provided inspiration, hence James Bond vs. Severn Trent. Next time he'll be kicking cold-caller ass.

Partial Dentures Newton & Brighton, MA
Unlike traditional partials, Dr. Bidabadi creates partials without metal or wires offering a more beautiful and natural appearance to your smile.
Why Should I Choose Partial Dentures?
If you are missing several teeth, to the extent that a dental bridge is not sufficient, a partial may be the right treatment option for you. Partials are removable.
No-wire partials are lightweight, made without metal and are virtually unnoticeable. No-wire partials improve upon old designs in that they will not damage your existing teeth or healthy gums.
How Are No-Wire Partials Different?
Traditionally, partial dentures use bent wires that look like paper clips that help the partials latch onto the adjacent teeth in order to hold in place. This can sometimes lead to discomfort and patients often require the use of creams and powders to help their partials stay in place.
No-wire partials are removable and are made of flexible material that is durable and are hard to break. Recent advancement in dental technology uses nylon to replace the usual metal and pink acrylic that is used for dentures. When used for partials, nylon resembles the pink color of the gums and can still be durable even if a thin portion is used for both the base and the clasps. These clasps curl comfortably to the necks of the teeth making them look invisible.
These types of partials are very stable and don't use your natural teeth to latch on to. And unlike partials with metal clasps, the structure and fit does not change over time.
How Do I Take Care Of My Partial Dentures?
Like any other dental device, partials require care and maintenance.
When wearing partials, you are advised not to position them into the mouth by using your bite. Use your hands when doing so. The jaw can be really strong and the pressure of a bite could greatly affect the framework of a partial when it is not in its exact position. It could be bent or broken and could even injure your gums or tongue in the process.
Do not tighten the partial's clasps on your own. It is not advisable to do so without appropriate knowledge and expertise about the procedure. If you feel the partial is loosening, bring them to your dentist and let the expert do the job.
You should not take a partial out of your mouth for more than a few weeks or a month. If you don't wear your partial for too long, your remaining teeth may gradually shift to a different position. Partials are placed and clasped on your remaining teeth precisely so that they resemble the natural contour of your teeth. Even the slightest disturbance in the alignment could cause complications.
Dr. Bidabadi personalizes your partials and dentures to help ensure a comfortable, and precise fit. With regular checkups, repairs and adjustments, you'll discover how partials and dentures can enhance your appearance and improve the quality of your life.

Donkey Tour on Korcula Island
2. It was not a "walk" to the beach. It was a flipping hike. A hike, I tell you. Through the forest. Up hill, literally both ways. There was no "trail" to speak of. Just some bush whacking through spiky vines. Had I been prepared for this and worn proper attire (like pants and close toed shoes), this could have been fun. But, no. I was ready for the beach. In shorts and friggin' flip flops. My feet were bloody by the end of the day. Not cool. Also, hiking in a bathing suit proved uncomfortable for Derek.
3. This tour was not appropriate for children. I honestly cannot believe that the tourism lady recommended this tour to Derek when she knew we would be taking a four year old with us. There were parts of the tour that were too dangerous for the donkeys to do, so we had to walk. Along a tiny rock path, next to a cliff. How do I hold my kid's hand through that? Not okay, tourism lady. Not okay.
4. Our tour guides were in middle school. Seriously. The day started out with a guy who spoke decent English, but then he had to go to "work" so his wife was going to take us. Apparently she decided not to and left us to her younger brother(?) and sister(?). These kids did not speak any English and were so immature that I probably wouldn't have trusted them to babysit the boys for a few hours in my own home let alone be responsible for our safety on some crazy donkey ride through the forest! (They were throwing rocks at boats and littering along the "paths.")
5. The beach that we worked super hard to get to was not that great. It was cold and windy, but that was just the day's weather. The worst part was the absurd amount of trash on the tiny beach. So much plastic! As it was too cold (and dirty) to swim, we just sat around for an hour and threw rocks into the ocean. The "tour guides" threw rocks at the local boats, but Owen was quick to note that their behavior was rather rude.
6. Despite assuring us our backpack would be fine tied to the donkey's "saddle," it wasn't. It fell of somewhere on the hike. The "guides" seemed unalarmed, probably because they didn't understand what was going on. Derek had to backtrack through the thorny brush to try to find the darn thing. With no way to communicate with our guides, this was an incredibly frustrating experience.
7. The "short walk to the beach" was actually a 12 mile hike. That we did in flip flops. Through thorny brush over sharp, jagged rocks. I am seriously shocked that Derek and I made it without having a serious injury.
The kids had fun. Even though their legs got all scratched up from the bushes and trees, they had a blast. I would probably even do the tour again simply to see their smiles. But next time, I'll wear my Keens.

Even though they lived miles away in Nassau, Bahamas, an island country in North America, yet their impact was felt in virtually every continent of the world. From America to Asia, then to Europe and Africa, Myles Munroe and his wife, Ruth, were what most people referred to as one of the most influential Christian couples of this century.
Born in 1954 (aged 60) in Nassau, Bahamas, Myles Munroe grew up poor in a family of eleven children. Raised in the Nassau suburb of Bain Town, he was a life-long resident of the Commonwealth.
Munroe became a Christian during his teenage years, and later attended the Oral Roberts University, USA, where he received his Bachelor of Fine Arts, Education, and Theology in 1978.
Apart from obtaining a Master's degree in administration from the University of Tulsa in 1980, Munroe was also the recipient of honourary doctoral degrees from various schools of higher education and served as an adjunct professor of the Graduate School of Theology at the Oral Roberts University.
Following his graduation from the University of Tulsa, he founded the Bahamas Faith Ministries International in the early 1980s.
His wife, Ruth, served as co-pastor with him at the church and were blessed with two children: Myles, Jr. (known as Chairo), and a daughter, Charisa.
But death took both away at the same time on November 9, 2014 when their aircraft struck a crane at a ship yard near the Grand Bahama International Airport.
With seven other passengers, it was the last journey for the Munroes as they were en route to Freeport, Grand Bahamas for a conference which was organised by the church.
Meanwhile, several tributes have been pouring in for the late couple from some of the popular clergymen – both in Nigeria and abroad – of this age through the social media.
Bishop David Oyedepo,
President and Founder, Living Faith Church Worldwide (aka Winners' Chapel)
Myles and I called ourselves 'twin brothers'
Myles, my twin brother is gone up to glory
Ruth, his partner in life and death has gone to eternal rest
Faith and I miss you both!
Our moments together on this side of the Jordan were most memorable.
We stayed together on several occasions under the same roof
We lodged in same hotels time and again; we shared the platform together preaching the good news of the Kingdom over the years.
Our friendship of over 24 years was a most enriching and adventurous one,
Our partnership in ministry was also a most profitable and rejuvenating one.
Myles, my twin brother
A bundle of inspiration
A man of spiritual depth and insight
A leader of leaders and teacher of teachers
Ruth, a bundle of joy and divine radiance
Your smiles were ever contagious,
You exhumed gentleness, love and care like a fountain
You were indeed a priceless jewel!
The two of you were swifter than eagles
You literally traversed the globe
As you taught nations the principles of the Kingdom
You were both as strong as the unicorn,
Energetic, untiring, never relenting, purposeful and focused
I could still remember, Myles and I took all the inaugural induction lectures for the pioneer Faculty and Staff of Covenant University in August 2002.
All of Myles' meetings on our church platform were ever inspiring and impactful.
The Living Faith Church Worldwide really misses you!
Good night Myles, my twin brother!
Good night Ruth, his partner in life and in death
Pastor Sunday Adelaja,
Founder and Senior Pastor, Embassy of God, Kiev, Ukraine.
I, like most dwellers of our planet woke up to the crude and shocking news that Dr. Myles Munroe and his beloved wife Ruth had left this earth in a tragic plane crash. Dr. Myles and his wife have impacted my life, ministry and our whole Russian-speaking world in such a way that it`s difficult to imagine. He was not just a pastor, teacher and minister of the gospel, he was first of all a man; he was a real man, a complete person, a genuine human being. He is a man that genuinely worked hard to transform himself so much that he reflected the image and likeness of God. Myles Munroe made you feel like you were his peer. He made you feel welcome; he did everything to make you feel at home.
Pastor E.A Adeboye,
General Overseer, The Redeemed Christian Church of God.
I regret the death of Myles Munroe, an evangelist and deep teacher of The Word. We cannot deny our grief. Without any doubt, Myles Munroe was a great man of God. His ministry impacted several ministries and generations. He will be greatly remembered and sorely missed by the Body of Christ. Nothing happens without God allowing it, though God was not behind this or any other plane crash. God will still ensure everything works together for good. The most important thing is for us to make heaven. God, who is sovereign and knows everything, has allowed it to happen. He knows best and why. He will not allow it if He cannot use it. We have no choice but to surrender to the supreme wisdom of God and trust Him fully at all times and in all situations.
PASTOR Ayo Oritsejafor,
President, Christian Association of Nigeria.
It was sad day. I woke up to the news that the prolific best-selling author and internationally renowned preacher and business coach, Dr. Myles Munroe of Bahamas Faith Ministries International, his wife, Mrs. Ruth Ann Munroe, died in a plane crash in the Bahamas. May you and your wife rest in the perfect bosom of the Lord.
Bishop T.D. Jakes,
Founder, The Potter's House, USA.
It is with deep shock and sadness that we have learned of the untimely passing away of our friends, Dr. Myles Munroe, his wife, Ruth Ann and seven others travelling with them. Our hearts go out to the Bahamas Faith Ministries International Fellowship family and those around the globe impacted by Dr. Munroe's love of God's Word, purpose-centred teaching, and passion for leaders. Our hearts are broken. We weep with all Christendom at this unimaginable loss. There are few biblical clinicians whose view of ministry wasn't enriched in some way by this tremendous bible scholar. His voice changed the way we viewed the Kingdom! Dr. and Mrs. Myles Munroe and associates, gone but not forgotten!
PASTOR Sam Adeyemi,
Founder, Daystar Christian Centre.
I was sad when I heard of the passing away of outstanding and inspiring mentor, Dr. Myles Munroe and his wife, along with others. It is well!
Kenneth Copeland,
Founder, Kenneth Copeland Ministries
Myles and Ruth Munroe, and their ministry, had been long-time friends of Kenneth Copeland Ministries, and with Gloria and me, for well over 35 years. Dr. Myles Munroe was a strong man of The WORD of God—a strong and gifted leader in the Body of Christ with an anointing to minister to ministers and teach and train leaders to be leaders in Christ Jesus, in the things of God, and in the victory that we have in Jesus Christ as LORD and Saviour. His lovely wife, Ruth, was equally as strong in the LORD and a powerful minister of the gospel in her own right. Of course they will be missed. And, of course we miss the strength that God placed in them. Ah, but no, we don't sorrow and mourn their passing. The Scripture says sorrow not, for we are not a people without hope. We know, beyond a shadow of any doubt, that Myles and Ruth Munroe just stepped into the presence of Jesus, and thanks be unto God He always gives us victory over death. He bought it, He paid for it and it is ours!
Pastor Paul Adefarasin,
Founder, House on the Rock Church.
Christendom has lost a leader, but heaven welcomed a general. We mourn the tragic passing of a great man, but re-echo his words: "The greater tragedy would have been a life lived without fulfilling purpose." Rest in our Father's bosom, Dr. Myles and Ruth Munroe.
Bishop Tudor Bismark
Co-founder, Jabula New Life Ministries, Zimbabwe
Myles Munroe was a prince, an icon and a legend. He was my friend and a brother. He changed churches, families, nations and tribes. He was definitely one of the greatest teachers the world produced in the 20th and 21st century. Dr. Myles Munroe will be remembered for his courage, faith, sincerity, balance and passion for God and the Kingdom. He and his wife, Ruth, were an inspiration to so many, and their example will live on for many years to come. They are truly irreplaceable. Gone too soon! My wife, ChiChi, & I miss them already. To their children, we send our hearts' condolences and prayers. There are no words right now for what has taken place, and all we can offer is our support to him. And to their Church and the entire family of Bahamas Faith Ministries, Chichi and I, and Jabula New Life Ministries International are with you. Our God is still God, and His Kingdom will reign forever and ever.
Dr. Mike Murdock,
Founder, The Wisdom Centre, USA
A fabulous friend has gone to be with Jesus Christ. To Dr. Myles Munroe and the staff killed in the plane crash, we travelled many miles together.
Creflo Dollar
Founder, World Changers Church International
My wife, Taffi, and I were saddened to hear about the passing of Dr. Myles Munroe and his wife, Ruth. We send our prayers and condolences to the Munroe family and all families affected in the tragic event.

Our blood is an essential part of our lives. Without it circulating our system, we wouldn't be functioning like we do today. It is important because it is composed of living cells maintaining and supporting our body tissues. Like for example, the red blood cells, in which are filled with hemoglobin, carry oxygen to our lungs and our entire bodies. The white blood cells defend us against infections, and our platelets, for instance, help blood to clot when we injure ourselves. But what if there are inconsistencies in it? How do we know? There is a process for it. This is called, "Red blood cell distribution width" or RDW Blood test.
Red blood cell distribution width or RDW Blood test measures the inconsistencies found in the blood. There are laboratory counting processes to find out the size inconsistencies of the red blood cells circulating in our body. This is also known as erythrocytes. It also estimates the hemoglobin and normally describes the complete blood count (CBC)'s factor in terms of differential diagnosis of anemia.
What is RDW on Blood Test and Normal Range?
In order to know your RDW Blood test's status is by taking the test. The RDW Test is a way for scientists to measure our RBCs size and volume. This is how it's done:
RDW-SD (29-46 fL) is the actual size measure. It is derived from the width in fluid Liters at 20% height. On the other hand, RDW-CV (11.6 – 14.6%) is determined when you take the standard deviation of RDW-SD and the corpuscular volume's number. RDW denotes the parameter obtained from numerical counting of red blood cells in blood tests. It indicates the size, volume or variation of erythrocytes present in the sample. In order to have this tested, a variety of medical devices are used to conduct hematological analyses. Coefficient of variation (CV) or RDW-CV and standard deviation (SD) or RDW-SD should be calculated.
To calculate the cell distribution width of the RBS is by using a histogram. The fundamental measure of the red blood cells' width and size are denoted by electronic instruments capable of analyzing blood samples. It detects the pulses that are produced by RBC. The stronger the pulses are, the greater the RBCs are in size. Likewise, the weaker the former is, the smaller the RBC are in size.
The aforementioned measurement basically suggests that the calculation revolves around the percentage's elevation plane. The typical size of the red blood cells, therefore, does not provide consequences of this limit. The normal range/level of blood flow should be at 10.2% to 14.5%. Take note that it's important to know that these ranges would be different depending on the machine used upon blood testing.
Tip: Always use the normal range found on your printed lab report upon deciding your range.
What does RDW Mean in Blood Test?
As mentioned previously, RDW denotes the parameter obtained from numerical counting of red blood cells in blood tests, thus, indicating the size, volume or variation of erythrocytes present in the sample. It estimates the hemoglobin and describes the complete blood count (CBC)'s factors in terms of differential diagnosis of anemia. This test is often done in conjunction by measuring the MCV (or mean corpuscular volume) of the RBCs. It's the average amount of space that takes up each cell within the bloodstream.
Here's the classification of anemias using MCV and RDW:
- Low RDW (low variability)
This indicates that the anemia, Thalassemia minor is both at low MCV (microcytic).
- Normal RDW
Thalassemia minor ranges until normal RDW (with low MCV as well). When you have normal RDW but low MCV, it is also possible that Anemia of chronic disease is present. If both are normal, Hereditary spherocytosis is present and if the MCV is high with normal RDW, the type of anemia one possess are Aplastic anemia and/or Myelodysplastic syndrome.
- High RDW (high variability)
If RDW is high with low MCV, it is iron deficiency. If one possesses normal MCV with high RDW, Early deficiency of iron, B12 or folate and Sickle cell anemia is the type of anemia present. If both are high, it's B12 or folate deficiency and/or Hemolytic anemia.
Knowing the comparison between RDW and MCV measurements determines the type of anemia in blood tests. If you have a high RDW blood test result, this indicates anemia due to two things. Either a) iron deficiency, or; b) folate and vitamin B12 deficiency. Sometimes, it may also suggest hemorrhage. False calculations or readings sometimes occur, though. This happens when the wrong blood type is used on the test. Per other accounts, they suggest that high RDW results may also be because of liver diseases or hemolytic anemia.
For example: when anemia is present in a person's blood sample and RDW and MCV are both high, then it means the person lacks folate and Vitamin B12. Per Health Research Funding, RBCs increase in size due to B12 and folate deficiency, allowing the MCV to raise. But if it's vice versa (RDW levels are high but MCV aren't), it is more likely the iron-deficiency type of anemia. This happens when there's a lack of iron in the blood, causing the decrease of hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is the substance that carry oxygen through RBCs.
Indication of RDW Result
These blood cell counts determine your overall health. This is also to know and pinpoint what might cause adverse symptoms. Know that whatever is indicated in your test results, further examinations are and would always be necessary to help determine what's wrong. This, in the event such symptoms manifest in your body. This is to also know how it should be treated thereafter.
If you have a Normal RDW but Low MCV, this indicates that your anemia is caused by a chronic disease. To assume of this circumstance based from your lab tests, conducting RWD should take place. Because this could even mean having heterozygous thalassemia or hemoglobin E trait. If the numbers are Elevated RDW and Low MCV, you probably must have the sickle cell kind of anemia and/or iron deficiencies. To further know more about this result, a variety of testing must require.
If, for instance, the numbers consist of Normal RDW and High MCV, the case can be a little serious. There is a huge possibility that chemotherapy, antivirals or alcohol shall take place. This could prompt if aplastic anemia or chronic liver disease is the result of the blood test conducted.
Elevated RDW and High MCV indicates potential problems. This could be viewed at a wide variety of dilemmas that include immune hemolytic anemia, myelodysplastic syndrome and folate or vitamin B12 deficiency. It can also cause cytoxic chemotherapy, alongside chronic liver diseases.
If you get a result of Normal RDW and Normal MCV, this means you have anemia of chronic disease, renal disease, acute blood loss or hemolysis. Just because the numbers are normal, doesn't mean it indicates a good result. It's still better to get (regularly) checked once symptoms arise.
While the aforementioned breakdown can reveal several things your RBC has to tell your doctor about your health, the numbers of Elevated RDW and Normal MCV doesn't exempt itself from potential problems. This means that if these numbers appear in your results, you might want to second guess your habitual lifestyle. Why? Because this can be associated in a bunch of anemia types like sickle cell disease, chronic liver disease or myelodysplastic syndrome, early stages of folate, vitamin B12 or iron deficiency, dimorphic anemia, which is a marked iron or folate deficiency and/or dimorphic anemia. It's better to know it firsthand from your doctor before it's too late.
The Red Blood Cell Distribution Width testing or RDW testing can tell your doctor more about your health via your blood and its RBCs. Take note that in most cases, RDW help determine several of points and factors that could affect the chances of developing iron deficiencies. It could even pinpoint different type of anemias you may be suffering from.
RDW is also most helpful in alerting your doctor if there's a serious or major blood problem. This will prompt him or her to conduct eventual tests that'll provide more details about your condition. Plus, knowing the results beforehand could actually save you from major blood problems (blood cancer or leukemia, for example). Knowing your RDW result can reduce the chance being at risk.

Miranda July / Joanie-for-Jackie Film Archive
One of my early films "Day Ditty" (1997) was recently acquired by the Getty Museum as a part of Miranda July's Joanie-for-Jackie feminist film archive. See the page here
"A devotion to women and their complexities is at the heart of all of the creative endeavors undertaken by Miranda July, the artist, writer, filmmaker — and radically motivated movie mogul. The latter gig, begun in 1995, was inspired by the Riot Grrrl scene then raging in Portland, Ore. Frustrated by the casual misogyny of mainstream and indie films, July, who had routinely built communities around herself, launched the feminist video series Big Miss Moviola (later changed to Joanie 4 Jackie); the hope was to offer an antidote to Hollywood's disinterest in the lives of women, and to open up a dialogue among girls, as music and fanzines were doing in the mid-'90s. Joanie 4 Jackie quietly thrived until the early 2000s, providing an intimate, easy and invaluable way for female artists to reveal and share their lives.
Twenty-two years after the project began, the Getty Research Institute in Los Angeles has acquired the Joanie 4 Jackie collection (some 300 videos, documentation and press materials) from July, contextualizing the project within feminist and queer history, alongside the archives of, among others, the Guerrilla Girls and Robert Mapplethorpe."

Sacred Object Project @ Our Prime Property
This idea came to me of relating to each other through aesthetic dialogue: symbolic artifacts in diverse cultures that, through association, acknowledge a borderless love of beauty, skill, and human expression. To locate the intersections of iconography and create equalized value across time and place, extending beyond regions and beliefs. The works become meditations on form pulled from their context and re-imagined within association…reducing and enlarging disparate items to the same scale and material to neutralize their worth and social/economic significance.

Filmmaker Godfrey Reggio's original Qatsi Trilogy films subversively question the balance among humanity, nature and technology. But it's Reggio's pioneering use of time-lapse footage and bustling narrative devoid of human dialogue that leaves audiences to find greater meaning for themselves — in themselves.
While premiering his new film Visitors at the 2014 Wisconsin Film Festival, Reggio stopped by the Institute to visit his longtime friends and Co-Directors of the Center for Complexity and Collective Computation David Krakauer and Jessica Flack.
For people who may not have seen your films, how do you describe your style?
Godfrey Reggio: Film now is based on a screenplay — it comes out of literature; it comes out of writing; it comes out of telling a story; it comes from the campfire. Before the innovations of color and sound [and story], it was all about pictorial composition. Film wasn't interested in representation; it was interested in giving someone an impression or affecting people, rather than telling them a story or information. It was an experience. But that kind of all stopped in the 20s or thereabouts, when sound came in.
Having grown up in the Middle Ages and not now, and being a Catholic monk, I found myself in a medium where I wasn't interested in the talking part. I was interested in — I don't like the word but let me use it — the "artistic" nature of what it could be, or the poetic aspect of cinema, which is non-rational, something that is not [there] to give you any information or tell you something. It's more to affect you, to watermark you, as if you had sat in water for a long time. Or give you a tattoo. Or to be even more intense, to afflict you with something that maybe you wouldn't come into contact with in another way.
What techniques give these impressions rather than tell linear stories?
In the form that I use, I take all the foreground out of traditional cinema — the characterization, the plot, the story basically — and you're left with what in the business is called "second unit" production, which is the background. So if we were shooting a film here (points out the window of the Discovery Building), that gentleman down there on the sidewalk would be second unit, the main actor would be sitting here where you and I are.
So ripping it out, I take the background and now make it the foreground. That's not to say, in other words, the films I've done have been characterized as non-narrative, which is a misnomer. They're narrative but non-spoken narrative. There are many ways to speak. Body language, facial display, eye behavior, gesture, are perhaps — with authenticity — more communicative than the words we use. Now, my love in life is word, so I'm not doing this for lack of love of the language, I'm doing this because, tragically, I feel our language no longer describes the world in which we live, and who we are is language qua language.
"This is what my cinema is about: to try to find what we're surrounded by that's under the rubric of normalcy."
— Godfrey Reggio
For the Qatsi Trilogy, the pacing of the films guided viewers with crescendos to form these impressions. What about Visitors?
Pacing in film is like the meter in poetry. The impression of Visitors was stillness. I had made films where everything was on speed, or rush hour.
I believe that buildings have a voice. I believe that traffic has a voice. I believe that the world is speaking to us, but we're deaf and blind to it because [these things] are close to us — so normal, so ordinary, so regular. This is what my cinema is about: to try to find what we're surrounded by that's under the rubric of normalcy. This cinema tries giving a voice to that which is overwhelmingly present, but we don't see.
Most of my films have between 400 and 600 images. Visitors has 74 images in the same amount of time, roughly, as Koyaanisqatsi. It's an exercise of slowing down. First of all, for whatever reason, it's my feeling that our faces are like masks we wear that reveal a universe inside of us, if only you can know how to look at the mask. And the longer you look at the mask, the more it reveals itself.
In the film, there are three characters: humans, gorillas and cyborgs. It's all to lose track of time, really. So the face that you see at the beginning (if you allow yourself to get involved in this reciprocal gaze) — not only are you staring at the screen, but the screen is staring back at you. It could be vapid. It's like you go to the hamburger stand and you get everything but the meat. Where's the meat? So all of those things, it breaks in a fundamental way the expectations one brings to that room when they go to a cinema. And that's what's important, for whatever reason; I can't tell you why.
What I wanted was a film that was autodidactic to discover something for yourself. So that's the intention: to watermark the audience, to have them discover something for themselves. It's not a story to be told, it's a story to behold.
Your work not only comments on humanity, but also technology. To you, are they becoming the same thing?
Technology for me is the new religion. I've become an obsessive observer of people over my life. I live in New York a lot, and on any given street, on the short versions of the streets, 70 percent of the people are plugged in in some way.
It's speed! Everything's faster. A shorter world. More comfort. More comfort for some means less comfort for others — that's the nature of it. When my mother was born in 1900, there were 1.7 billion people on the planet. Now we approach 7 [billion]. There's an inverse relationship in terms of the quantitative presence that we have. We're losing the qualitative voice of life. We see the world through language; now our language is zeros and ones. Most people can't speak those.
I think we're transiting from being human already. I think it's already happened, in fact. I'm not waiting for the event, the event has occurred. In our bodies, we have trace minerals that didn't exist on the planet 100 years ago. We've become the environment we're in.
To me this is the height of techno-fascism, because, to me, the beauty of this planet is its diversity. If there were one season, one bird, one person it would be boring. The beauty of it is that everything is different, but it's all now being homogenized. So homogenization is the modus operandi of the medium, not diversification.

Homeowner's insurance is required by lenders in order to close on a residential property. It's an expensive item on the closing statement because lenders usually insist that the annual premium has been paid in full for the first year.
And policy terms can be confusing and easily misunderstood by the homebuyer, so it's important to really understand what type of protection you are buying and assess how much financial risk you are willing to take.
Building Coverage Limits
One of the first questions that you have to figure out is how much total coverage to have on the buildings and other structures on the property. There are many other insurance decisions to make about types of perils covered, deductibles, etc., but the most basic item is how much coverage you need on the property itself.
To answer that, you need to understand the difference between Rebuilding Costs and Market Value.
Rebuilding costs reflect the costs to rebuild in the event of a total loss. Market value reflects the total current value of the entire property, both buildings and land.
Among other things, it also reflects the value added by your location, school district and neighborhood amenities. Those are not construction costs.
Using purchase price as a rule of thumb can result in either paying for more coverage than is required or in not having enough coverage when you most need it.
How Do You Calculate Rebuilding Costs?
Here's where it gets kind of tricky. The simple answer is to take the square footage of the building(s) and multiply by the estimated cost to construct those building(s) at today's construction costs.
But the best you'll be able to find for that is a range of dollars per square foot. Local contractors, your insurance broker and the insurance company may be able to give you ranges, but in the end you have to make an educated decision.
Square footage construction costs vary by the level of finishes & upgrades you have in the house, what the general cost of construction is in your area, the ease or difficulty of getting materials and supplies to your property, etc. And, if you are rebuilding after a disaster, you'll have costs associated with demolition and cleanup too.
What's the Best Approach?
Talk with your insurance broker for advice and maybe with a builder in your area so that you feel comfortable with the amount of coverage. Some insurance companies will help you find the right coverage level, but they usually don't review this until after you've moved in.
Once you own the property, the company may send an inspector out to evaluate it and will adjust the coverage amount based on their data and expertise. Sometimes this is an optional free service you can request. Other companies simply do it as a routine process, whether you want them to or not.
Policy Coverage Questions to Ask
Some key questions to ask about your property coverage include, but aren't limited to:
- Is there an annual inflation adjustment built in to cover future building cost increases?
- What coverage do you have for increased costs due to having to re-build to newer and stricter building codes?
- Is the building coverage for actual replacement cost?
- What risks are you insured against (e.g., named perils or all-risk)
- Are there any specific hazards that are excluded (e.g. sinkholes if you live in Florida)?
And, lastly, if you are tempted to under-insure because you want to cut your costs, exercise caution. Most insurance policies have a provision that significantly reduces your coverage in the event of a claim, if you are shown to have been under-insured.
Your home is a major financial asset, so protecting it is important. Review any policy carefully and ask your insurance broker to explain anything you don't understand or are unsure about.

Name: Gina Hatchett (@ginaheartswhales)
Hi, hi, and hi. My name is Gina Hatchett and I have been involved with CRU since the beginning of my freshman year at WKU. Before I continue on, I just wanted to throw out there if something you read catches your interest or if you like whales/Seattle/boba tea, find me in real life or through social media and I am always down for having a life chat over coffee.
OKAY, now to get to the good stuff.
Have you ever been called to do something that sounds uber interesting to be a part of but is not something you would typically do? Well, this past semester, that's exactly what happened to me. But, cooler than that is the story of how it began dates back 3 years ago…
I was sitting in Bible College located in a tiny, tiny village in Hungary listening to one of my teachers teach about Daniel. In Chapter 3, Nebuchadnezzar's dream is mentioned and how the wise men of Babylon could not decipher it and believed no one could. Then enters Daniel, who trusts that God will reveal the mysterious dream to him [all for God's glory], and a line my teacher spoke that has always stuck with me is "God can use a YES man."
Fast forward to this past fall semester, this sermon has made a reappearance in my mind as I have been seeking out new ways to say YES to the Lord. Whether that be being more diligent with my quiet times or actively living life with open hands.
A very neat way to say YES to the Lord came in early September. I was looking into taking a cool train trip across the country with friends for fun. Randomly, the Lord randomly placed a thought in my head – "What if you made this a trip for me?" I was, of course, like cool…interesting…I got no idea what that means. Within a few days, a complete picture of what the trip would look like formed in my brain. My infamous disclaimer to this trip is that I am not selfless enough to come up with this on my own.
So, what will the trip look like? 4405 miles of traveling through Chicago, Minneapolis, Spokane, Seattle and Portland with 5 friends who are passionate about sharing the Gospel with the people we encounter on the buses and trains we will commuting on and seeking out the homeless in the cities we stop in to help provide for their physical needs as well as having spiritual conversations with them and sharing God's love with them. That's a real long sentence…
Does it sound a little crazy? Absolutely. Have we done this before? Not exactly. But, do we believe the Lord have opened the door for to go on this trip to glorify His Kingdom? 100% YES. Again, this is when a life chat over coffee would come in handy because to share of all the radical ways the Lord has provided and led us in planning and preparing this trip thus far creates a beautifully long list.
Are we nervous? YES, we are scared out of our minds. But, we know that the Lord will be faithful to equip us with boldness and confidence to tell about who He is and the relationship that He desires to have with the people we are sharing with.
Can I brag on CRU for a split second? I am beyond thankful to be a part of a campus ministry that not only desires for its students to be actively sharing their faith on campus, but is willing to invest time in equipping us to do so. The people going on this trip with me are super excited to not only talk about our faith with people, but also to bring back our experiences to encourage our friends back at CRU to ignite a revival on our campus at WKU. For as long as we all attend WKU, this is the current mission field that the Lord is currently calling us to.
Well, it's about that time to let you all go. Thanks for reading, caring, and praying for us!
And remember:
Find new ways to say YES to the Lord in this new year.
Peace & love,
P.S. –Follow our adventures and read the cool blog posts that we are writing at the4405.wordpress.com.

Have a really, REALLY good trip

Getting started with the PetaLibrary
The PetaLibrary is a Research Computing resource that allows researchers affiliated with the University of Colorado to store large amounts of data. This tutorial covers access and use of the PetaLibrary for Earth Lab members.
The PetaLibrary is only available to certain CU researchers who pay the required fees. Earth Lab provides access to the PetaLibrary, but use requires authentication. In this case, Earth Lab members will use an RC account with Duo authentication.
Getting a Research Computing (RC) Account
1) Open up a web browser and head to the RC Account Creation Page
2) At the bottom of the screen, ensure 'University of Colorado - Boulder' is selected from the dropdown box under 'Select your organization' and press 'Continue'
3) Provide your CU Boulder Identikey username and password
4) Provide your University affiliation, enter 'EarthLab' for Organization/Department you represent, and ensure 'bash' is selected for 'Preferred login shell'
5) Click 'Submit Request'
Getting a Duo Account
1) Open up a web browser and head to the Duo Signup Page
2) Provide your first name, last name, CU Boulder email address, mobile phone number, enter 'EarthLab' as Company/Account Name, and select 'Just me' from the final dropdown box
3) Check the Terms/Privacy Policy box and click 'Create My Account'
4) Download the Duo Mobile application on your smartphone
5) Ensure that notifications are enabled for the Duo Mobile application
6) Upon verifying your CU Boulder ID card, RC will then issue an email/text message/phone call to verify and finalize the two-step authentication setup process
Accessing the PetaLibrary
There are several different methods for accessing the PetaLibrary, outlined below.
RC Environment
If you have an account with research computing and have access to the PetaLibrary, you should have PetaLibrary directories available in your research computing environment. Information on how to access an RC environment through Janus login nodes can be found here. The PetaLibrary contains the following directories:
/work/for active storage
/repl/for active storage with replication
/archive/for archive storage
Active Storage
Active storage (
/work/) is accessible for read and write directly through any RC environment. This includes both the login and compute nodes. This is the directory you will want to be using to read and write data while you are working on a project.
Active Storage with Replication
Active storage with replication (
/repl/) is available for read only purposes from the login nodes. This directory contains copies of your data as a means to backup files that may be inadvertently deleted.
Archive Storage
Archive storage (
/archive/) is available for read and write purposes from login nodes only. This is meant to be used to transfer data from other storage spaces, and should not be used extensively during a project.
External Access
Globus is a tool for high performance data transfer. GlobusOnline provides an easy-to-use web application for accessing Globus tools. To get started with GlobusOnline, select the login option at the top of the homepage (www.globus.org/). Next, select The University of Colorado at Boulder as your organization from the dropdown menu. When you click continue you will be taken to a sign in page where you can use your CU Identikey username and password. Once you have logged in you can associate your Identikey with your Globus account. You will only need to do this the first time you login.
After this is done, you will want to use the Transfer Files tool and click 'Start by selecting an endpoint'. From here, go to the My Endpoints tab and select 'add Globus Connect Personal'. This should allow you to select the computer you are working on as one endpoint.
For the second endpoint you will want to use 'colorado#gridftp'. This will require you to sign in with your RC account credentials. Use
<identikey>@duo as the username and enter your password (substituting your Identikey name). This should send a Duo authentication notice to your phone, assuming you have properly set up your duo account. Once this is done your RC computing environment should be set as your second endpoint. Now you can easily transfer files to and from your computer and the PetaLibrary, as well as any other RC storage space, using the simple interface.
Globus also has a command-line interface that allows you to manage data transfer without using the web app. Information on how to configure and use the Globus command-line interface can be found here.
SSH methods are much less efficient than Globus, but you may find them to be more convenient for moving only a few files.
Windows Users
Windows users should go to the PuTTY site, and download pscp.exe. This is a command line interface, and it does not install itself, so you will need to place the file in a desired directory. Next, add that directory to your path variable. More information on setting your path in windows can be found here. Once the path has been properly set you will be able to use the
pscp command to transfer files. Details on using this command will be given in the next section, just be sure to replace
scp with
pscp. This is the only difference, otherwise the command works exactly the same as OS X and Linux users.
Mac/Linux Users
At the command line, navigate to the directory containing the files you would like to transfer. Once in the directory you should be able to use the command
scp file_name <identikey>@login.rc.colorado.edu:/path/to/your/directory
You will then be asked for a password. Enter 'duo:password' and a Duo authentication notification will be sent to your phone. Accept the notification, and the file(s) will be transferred to your RC environment. Wildcards can be used to replace the
file_name argument with
*.type where type is some file extension for a specific type of file you would like to transfer. This will transfer all files of that type in the current directory, instead of transferring files one at a time. E.g., to transfer all files with a .txt extension:
scp *.txt <identikey>@login.rc.colorado.edu:/path/to/your/directory
More information on access via SSH can be found here.

What can you expect from the Photography stall at the Sunday Market?
If you or a family member or even a friend of a friend has starred in a Centrestage show, then you can pretty much guarantee that we've captured the moment.
Eddie and I have the blisters on our index fingers to prove it too as there are hundreds of images in our growing show libraries.
Have a look on Eddie's website www.el-imaging.co.uk and mine www.martinclark.zenfolio.com and see if you appear in any of our images.
A nice memento to have is a personalised montage print. These come in A3 size and are mounted in a card frame. They look great and text can be added to personalise it with the show and date. Just pick the images you want and let Eddie and I know which ones you need.
Here's an example of The Witches of Eastwick montage that will be on display at the stall.
The prints are produced by a high quality professional print supplier and can be bought for £20. As always, all profits go to Centrestage.
Of course individual prints can also be bought through our websites for reasonable prices and various sizes. Ordering is easy.
Have a chat with Eddie or I at the stall at the market and see some of our prints.

Chapter One of "How to be a Cool Dad (or Mom)"
Welcome to a brand new series of posts. I hope over the coming months to post fun stuff like this between the anrgy brooding outbursts. What do you do when confronted with making dinner AGAIN? Make breakfast, but not just any breakfast. Do something truly fun; completely nerdy... but fun.
If you are bored, it is because you are BORING. From within tedium comes the truest inspiration. My dad used to make breakfast for me and my sis almost every morning before school. It started out as a somewhat uninspiring exercise... but then it got strange. My father didn't go out and become a 5 star chef, but the breakfasts got more interesting and stupid. We literally and figuratively ate it up.
St. Patrick's Day: green scrambled eggs
Valentine's Day: Red milk on our cereal
Oatmeal Volcanoes: instant oatmeal mound in a bowl with a butter and brown sugar crater, surrounded by a milk moat.
If you ever met my dad, you would probably think he is a pretty cool guy, but then I think about this kind of "nerdy dad breakfast stuff" he used to do for me and my sis, and I think he's a nerd; an awesome cool guy dad nerd. And everyday, I find myself doing the same things for my daughter.


text: I shot these photos for Hayato on a gorgeous, early October afternoon. The sun was out, the temperature was just about perfect, and there were hardly any people on the beach, apart from a scattering of surfers. Now this is what I call a beach - clear water stretching out as far as the eye can see into the horizon, gulls winging their way overhead. And actual, beautiful shells dotting the sand. I couldn't stop myself from starting down occasionally and fingering a few, although I didn't bring any back with me. So, Japan does have amazingly pretty beaches, and I feel so lucky to have visited this one on a photoshoot assignment. Hayato, thank you so much for an inspiring shoot!
