Diagnosis Of Type 2 Diabetes May Signal An Early Pancreatic Cancer In Older People
The number of persons who were diagnosed with pancreatic cancer or type 2 diabetes (T2D) is on the rise in the United States. Over 55,000 people were diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2015 and about 80 percent of them were diagnosed at an advanced stage. Most of the earlier studies on pancreatic cancer have been done in the Caucasian race (also Caucasoid race).
In the current study, the researchers wanted to find out a better way for an early identification of pancreatic cancer in the people. Researchers have conducted the Multiethnic Cohort Study (MEC), an analytical study to find out the markers and characteristics of pancreatic cancer. This study was funded by the National Cancer Institute (NCI). The study shows that the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes (T2D) after the age of 60 years may indicate an early sign of pancreatic cancer.
The researchers have conducted a 20-year follow-up study on 50,000 African American and Hispanic men and women. The participants are at the highest risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D), but without type 2 diabetes or pancreatic cancer at the start of the study. They used the California hospital discharge records, Medicare claims and a self-reporting of the people in determining the type 2 diabetes and pancreatic cancer.
During the study period, researchers found that about 15,800 (32 percent) of the participants were diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer in about 408 people. The median age of the patients at the time of the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer was 76.7 years. The following table shows the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer among the people diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, aged between 65 and 85 in the previous three years.
The study also shows the following.
This study clearly shows that pancreatic cancer can be predicted in some people with the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes.
The current study was done on the African American and the Hispanic people and the study may not be applied to all people. But the study has found no association between the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes and the diagnosis of prostate, breast or colorectal cancer, in the people aged over 60 years.
It is not clear whether pancreatic cancer causes type 2 diabetes or type 2 diabetes causes pancreatic cancer in a person. The experts think that type 2 diabetes is a risk factor and also an outcome of pancreatic cancer. But the mechanism behind the association between type 2 diabetes and pancreatic cancer is not clear.
Now, the researchers are developing a test procedure (test and the guidelines) for an early identification of pancreatic cancer. When an elderly person from the minority community was recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, he should consult the doctor for the possible sign of cancer, especially pancreatic cancer. New tools such as the liquid biopsy test may be used for the early diagnosis of cancer.
The lead author of the study was Dr. Veronica Wendy Setiawan, Ph.D., an associate professor of the preventive medicine, the Keck School of Medicine, the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, United States. The study was published June 18, 2018, in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute. Title of the article was "Pancreatic Cancer Following Incident Diabetes in African Americans and Latinos: The Multiethnic Cohort."
Liquid biopsy : The liquid biopsy (also known as the fluid phase biopsy) is a simple and non-invasive blood test to diagnose and monitor the tumor. This test can check for the cancer DNA in the blood. The development of cancer can be tracked in a better way by conducting this test more frequently over a period. This test can also be used to track the treatment of cancer.
Pancreatic cancer : Pancreatic cancer is a fatal type of cancer. The National Cancer Institute (NCI) says the survival rate of pancreatic cancer over a five-year period is 8.5 percent. The survival rate of pancreatic cancer is very poor. A better testing procedure is required for the early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. Currently, there are no screening guidelines for pancreatic cancer.
A person will be affected with pancreatic cancer when the cancerous cells form in the tissue of pancreas gland. About 1.6 percent of the people are affected by this form of cancer. The symptoms of the pancreatic disease will appear when the disease is in an advanced stage. About 80 percent of the patients with pancreatic cancer was diagnosed at an advanced stage.
It is very difficult to diagnose pancreatic cancer early to provide effective treatment. The experts say the best option to cure pancreatic cancer is to identify cancer early and then surgically remove the tumor and the surrounding tissue.
The following are the symptoms of pancreatic cancer.
The risk factors for pancreatic cancer are.

Press Statement: Palestinian Independent Commission for the Prosecution of Zionist Occupation Crimes against Palestinians
Statement issued from the Palestinian Independent Commission for the Prosecution of Zionist Occupation Crimes against Palestinians
July 13, 2014
The Israeli occupation forces have used internationally prohibited weapons against civilians in the current war on Gaza. The continuous targeting of civilians by the Israeli occupation forces is a systematic policy in the war against the Gaza Strip, which has been going on for seven consecutive days. This has led to an increase in the number of martyrs (167) and wounded (1123), many of who are women and children.
Given that the Gazan civilians continue to be aggressively targeted directly and systematically by the Israeli army, the Authority wishes to clarify the following facts:
1. It is apparent from the primary evidence available to the Authority, the Israeli occupation army used internationally prohibited weapons as well as conventional weapons disproportionately.
2. The weapons used by the occupying army caused significant and unusual damage to the bodies of victims. Norwegian expert, Mads Gilbert, currently in Al Shifa Hospital in Gaza, has examined many bodies of the martyrs and wounded. From his analysis, it is clear that there is much use of prohibited weapons by the Israeli army against civilians in the Gaza Strip.
3. Over recent months, the authority has received results of tissue samples of the martyrs and the explosive material from the two previous wars in 2008 and 2012 from labs outside the Gaza Strip. These results confirmed that the Israeli army had used internationally prohibited weapons against civilians. The authority will not hesitate to analyze samples and reveal the kinds of the weapons used in the current war, and the extent of the impact of these weapons on targeted civilians.
4. The use of internationally prohibited weapons by the Israeli occupation army in the two previous wars in 2008 and 2012, in addition to the current war, clearly demonstrates the existence of a systematic policy on the use of such weapons by the Israeli government and its occupying army.
5. The weapons currently in use, whether traditional or non-traditional, are being used directly against civilians and without any prior notice, leading to major massacres against civilians. For instance, recently, warplanes deliberately bombed the home of Al-Batsh family in the Al-Saha'f neighbourhood in Gaza even though the families were in their homes. This lead to the injury of 35 people and massacre of 18 people, which included women and children. The authority does not expect that the recent massacre perpetrated by the occupation forces will be the last.
6. The authority made these results clear and is ready to cooperate with all human rights organizations and the international court in order to bring these criminal occupiers to trial for their crimes against Palestinian civilians.

I have been working on a board game called "The Game of Stress". This is a board game that gives you stressful situations if you land on different spots, but on other spots it gives you stress relief things you can do to cope in a healthy manner.
I am on my third draft for the game, making changes as I go. I had two of my friends play the game and see what they liked about it and what they didn't. I also had them both do a SWOT analysis for me so I could see it in word what my strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats where. This is going to help me a lot in the development of my game. Hope you guys keep reading, at the end of making my game I am going to post downloadable pieces so that everyone can try!!
Below I am going to post the SWOT analysis and also the pictures of what stage my game is in now:
Hope you guys like where it is going and tune it for more to come!

There's dance to music, there's dance with music, and – much more rarely – there's dance as music. In Finding Synaesthesia, a Canadian collaboration between tap dancer Heather Cornell and composer Andy Milne, tap dance works almost like a member of the band.
The show opens in darkness, so that the stage is filled only with the soft rattle of Cornell's steps. Gradually, the lights go up, and she is joined by cellist Rufus Cappadocia, vocalist Malika Zarra and Milne on piano. Rebecca Birch's unintrusive video projections also focus on music: closeups of piano strings, the shadow of a tapping foot.
Musically, Milne harnesses a wide and unexpected range of sounds and influences; it's remarkable that the result is never hotch-potch. There are lush Gershwin chords, wonky Thelonious Monk basslines, mystic harmonies reminiscent of Satie. Zarra is captivating, with a soft voice and a hushed style of scat-singing that makes her sound as if she is casting spells. One number, with its regular piano chug, feels like a ride through shifting aural landscapes. Indeed, with its chilled attitude and hypnotic vibe, the whole experience is quite trippy.
As music, the tap dance works within the musical texture, splashing through puddles of piano notes, or scuffing against the block chords like sandpaper. As dance, though, it is curiously self-effacing. Cornell is joined by two British guest dancers, Jess Murray and Junior Laniyan, but there is little of choreographic interest between them. The laid-back style is all in the feet, with arms, torso and face responding passively.
Intricate as the steps are, the result becomes unexpectedly monotonous: the arcane pleasures of rhythm and improvisation belong more to the dancers than to us.

Trust is an essential ingredient in all effective relationships — including business relationships. Your trust and our reputation work in tandem.
While going through a recent report by 451 Research "Voice of the Enterprise", I was surprised to see How Organizations are Protecting their SaaS Data?
25% don't Backup their SaaS application despite knowing the threats associated with data loss. Manual copies to an on-premises datacenter (11%) and manual copies to another cloud (3%) seems to be a good starting point, but these operations could be affected by human error- especially witnessing the scale of the data.
These results seem contrary to the common belief that cloud backup providers offer many advantages. We often hear how robust, inexpensive, and convenient the cloud approach is, compared with in-house backups. Obviously, however, strong resistance exists. This resistance is based largely on the security aspects of cloud-based backups. Skepticism and caution about security are natural when you move data from your internal storage to someone else's storage. Also, the location where you are sending the data is shared by many others, which increases doubts about the security of your data.
We understand that relinquishing direct control of many aspects of your data requires a high level of trust. Maintaining a high level of security is the foremost concern for NetApp® SaaS Backup. We offer transparent operations, along with continuous compliance. Our primary goals in achieving the utmost security and winning your trust are:
- Securing your data in the cloud
- Preserving your privacy
- Helping you comply with regulatory standards
NetApp SaaS Backup Q&A
Q: Does NetApp SaaS Backup fully protect customers' data?
NetApp SaaS Backup protects information by analyzing the risks associated with each threat area and taking appropriate actions. SaaS Backup also encrypts data at rest and in transit to meet security requirements. We ensure the ongoing confidentiality, integrity, availability, and resilience of your data while protecting it.
Q: Do NetApp systems lock out hackers and combat cyberattack?
A successful cyberattack can shut down operations — not just for a few hours, but for several days or even weeks. And the collateral damage, such as information leaks and harm to reputation, can last much longer.
We do search for vulnerabilities and fix them. But legacy security defenses are no longer adequate. With real-time monitoring, we catch attackers in the act and render them harmless.
Q: What about privacy?
The data belongs to you; you are the owner. The NetApp service portfolio meets your privacy obligations for areas including deletion, rectification, transfer of, access to, and objections in the processing of personal data.
Q: Does SaaS Backup help customers be GDPR compliant?
The whole IT world is focused on their efforts to be GDPR compliant. NetApp is committed to being GDPR compliant and to helping our customers be compliant also. When you outsource your data to us for backup and restore, we become your '"data processor." As data processors, we are obligated to provide "sufficient guarantees to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures" to meet GDPR requirements and protect data subjects' rights. NetApp adheres to the Code of Conduct for data processors and controllers, as described in GDPR Article 40. The "right to be forgotten and erasure" is also provided, as required.
Q: Does SaaS Backup focus on identity and access management?
Identity and access management checks who has access to personal data. SaaS Backup strictly enforces segregation of duties and role-based access to protect your personal data from unauthorized access. When a data subject needs to access the data, we confirm their identify before providing access.
Q: How do you use customers' data?
SaaS Backup uses your data for only one purpose: to provide you data protection. We do not mine or share your data with anyone for advertising, marketing, or any other purpose.
Q: How can customers get their data back?
Gartner suggests, "Ask potential providers how you would get your data back and if it would be in a format that you could import into a replacement application." With NetApp SaaS Backup, your data is not locked in. If you decide to end your subscription, you get back full access to your data, in a consistent format. After the minimum retention period, we delete your data throughout its whole trajectory.
Trust and Security should not be a roadblock in your journey towards Data Protection. We are here to address your Data Protection needs with utmost security commitment. Go for a free trial and check it out.

More about the movies:
In this lively 80s classic, city kid Ren McCormick (Kevin Bacon) attempts to adapt to life in an ultra-conservative backwater Midwestern town. Once there, he ends up leading the repressed teenagers into a rebellion against the town fathers, who have outlawed rock & roll and dancing. Kick off your Sunday shoes and join us for the explosive rock 'n' roll musical sensation.
Tony Manero (John Travolta) is a Brooklyn paint store clerk by day and undisputed king of the dance floor by night. Every Saturday, Tony puts on his wide collared shirt, flared trousers and platform shoes and heads out to the only place where he's seen as a god rather than just some young punk. But in the darkness, away from the strobe lights and glitter ball, is a tragic story of disillusionment, violence and heartbreak. Saturday Night Fever showcases the music and fashion of its time but also portrays a powerful and provocative urban tragedy that carries as much significance today as it did in 1977.

Seventeen - Skin Wow 3 Way Highlighter
Sunday, 10 November 2013
Seventeen Skin Wow 3 Way Highlighter - Boots
Recently I've become a lot more interested in contouring, especially highlighting and I've been looking for my favourite drug store highlighter, and I honestly love this one by Seventeen. I think this is my new favourite highlighter.
The Seventeen Skin Wow Highlight is a liquid based, shimmery pale pink based highlighter that can be used in three different ways. You can use it to prime your skin, you can add it to foundation for an overall glow, or you can apply directly to cheekbones and other highlighting areas to brighten up your skin. Personally I prefer to apply direct to my cheekbones and I also apply to the bridge of my nose to make it look more defined and in fact smaller, with the help of bronzer to shadow the sides of the nose. I also love to apply it in my foundation to give me a healthy looking glow when I feel a little dull.
I can instantly see amazing results with this highlighter. It is so subtly blended into the skin, but at the same time gives a noticeable glow as you can see in the picture below. My only concern was that as a liquid it would feel sticky and uncomfortable on the skin, but happily it feels great on the skin, very light and comfortable and long lasting. I also love the pump mechanism too, as it gives you complete control of how much product you want to use each time.
I've been using this everyday since I purchased it a couple of weeks ago and I absolutely love it. It would be something I repurchase when I run out too, and I don't often say that about products. I would definitely recommend it if you're looking for a decent affordable drug store highlighter, and at £5.99 I think this is completely worth the money.
Have you tried this highlighter yet? What's your thoughts on it, or which ones would you otherwise recommend?

Thank you!
I have been a regular patient of Lino's for 15 years. Playing for the Sacramento Monarchs in the WNBA, traveling all over the world with USA Basketball, and weekly transcontinental trips for my television duties, he has kept me in one piece. The ability to recover from the pounding my body takes on a daily basis is critical to my productivity. I know that Lino can fix anything and that gives me a lot of confidence. I also know he will tell me the truth always about when I need to back off or change my form in a particular area. His advice and methods have been as valuable to me in my professional career as any I've come across. Thank you Lino!
Walk Cycle Class
Six years ago I broke my foot. The bone healed but I never fully recovered. Most days my pain was at a 7. A month before taking the Walk Cycle Class my knees started to fail me, resulting in my not being able to stand without crying of screaming. NSAIDS and 10 days of steroids did not help. Needless to say I was growing concerned with my future. After the first day of hands on treatment in class, my knees were somewhat better and I was able to go for a small hike. The second day of hands on treatment, my foot started to feel better but not good. That was a Sunday. By Friday all of my foot and Knee pain was GONE! For the first time in 6 years I can walk and sleep without worrying about my foot. I'm not on anything for the knees since the class. I knew the bones in my foot were no longer moving properly but many therapist and doctors could not seem to help me. Thank you Lino Cedros for coming to Missouri and teaching this class and changing my life! I am taking my rehab slow but honestly feel like I could go running. Sheri Rohrbach
Doctor's looked at the symptom, Lino found the cause…
I am a LAPD Motorcycle Officer and have been with the Department since June of 1989. I have been a Motorcycle Officer since October of 1994. I thought I had a possible tear to the Rotator Cuff and Work Comp was wasting time and money looking at the symptom rather than the cause. After two months and only getting worse, my brother suggested Lino (KINECTIONS INC). Without knowing all of my pain issues, Lino, described every one of my symptoms, as if he was in my body feeling the pain himself. I drove from Los Angeles, and after one session that lasted less than 30 minutes, I could see a big improvement. I had been unable due to the excruciating pain to lay on my left side. Not only could I lay on it, I slept for several hours on it. I could not lay on my back without my head elevated without pain, but could do that as well. How much money would workman comp have saved? It cost me less than the MRI. If I feel this type of pain again, I will be on my way to Sacramento. Tim Kay, LAPD Motors.
I have been a client of Kinections and Lino Cedros for many years. Initially, when no doctors or other practitioners could relieve my symptoms, somebody in my gym suggested I try Kinections. I'd been suffering for three years so, admittedly, was rather skeptical. Lino went straight to the problem area and immediately I started to feel better. I saw him regularly after that until my symptoms were relieved. I now go to Lino periodically for a tune-up and to address any other issues that may come up. Lino is professional and knowledgeable and able to help me when nobody else could. I have referred many friends to him and all, without exception, have been helped. I highly recommend Lino Cedros and Kinections.
Life Changer
I've known Lino for over 10 years now. As a trainer, I've sent countless clients his way when they get injured. As well as my own family when they are hurt. He is nothing short of amazing. He literally knows more about the body than anyone I've ever come into contact with. 1 1/2 years ago, I was hit by a car while running. Going to see a regular doctor was out of the question. I knew the only person who would help me get back to normal was Lino. I was back up and running 6 weeks later and was back to normal about 3 months after the accident. He helped me in every way possible. Guiding me on what I should do to help my brain recover, what I should do to physically recover and gave me homework between visits. I cannot recommend him enough! My only complaint is.... I wish he had a friends and family card that you'd accrue visits on as I've sent literally hundreds of people to him over the years. I'm beyond thankful to have him in my life.

Sketch Art Gallery
Here is my sketch collection of the great leaders, innovators and game changers of the world (Caption from: Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia). This is my tribute to their great contributions that changed this world for the better, forever. Teaching leadership to young and new leaders for a decade now made me realized that I can't really teach leadership inside the classroom but can only show it in action or demonstrate it in the real world. However, I am still a work-in-progress as a leader and my knowledge could still be weak. I realized that the best way to teach leadership is to tell the success stories of the famous great leaders of the world.
These great leaders are the center of the leadership insights I share in my blog and the inspiration of my art. I am a newbie in sketching so be nice. My sketches are executed using pencil and charcoal on sketch pad.
Please do leave a comment down here if you have something to share about leadership or your interests in art.

Meet Alex
Me, speaking casually, last weekend: "You know, it might be about time to start looking for a new car."
Two dealerships later, look what followed us home: Alex* is a 2011 Chev Equinox, V-6, with seat warmers and a backing camera. I thought I wanted a red car until I saw this one - it was love at first sight. Alex was the advertised 'special' for President's Day weekend so we got a very nice deal.
And buying a new car? Not a fast project. We got there at 1 - without having lunch first, bad mistake - and got off the lot at 4:30. And drove straight to McDonalds. Soooo hungry. But very happy too.
Not going to miss our old Trailblazer even a little bit.
* Everyone names their cars, right??

Hello Sunday, nice to see you. Just to keep you in the picture, yesterday involved some work (although not the masses that I suspect we'll be doing over the next couple of weeks) and some exercise on the trusty chain driven steeds. Mrs G and I pottered about in town and then I went map hunting while she caught up with L who was up visiting from that London. I'm taken with the idea of an antique map of the city to hang on a wall in the warren somewhere. Not sure exactly where yet. Will cross that bridge in the fullness of time (to mix idioms), but the bigger problem with the idea is finding the right map to begin with. Gloucester has a couple or three decent antique warehouses which are stuffed full of all manner of ..erm.. antiques? However, having spent a goodly few hours rummaging around them all, I've positively failed to find, not only a decent antique map, but in fact any map of the city whatsoever. Complete waste of time, although I did find Winnie that someone had thoughtlessly trussed up. Don't they know he's got things to do!? (mowing any stray grass to within a 16th of an inch of it's life for a start)

I've had a poke about on the Interweb for one and while I've seen the odd example I quite admire, I'm not feeling like setting my heart on one of them until I've seen them in the flesh (so to speak). Next on my list then is an antiques map shop and/or a car boot sale. One of which will most definitely have what I'm looking for (at a price) while the other is just "eBay Live" but without the bidding, or search facility… or customer satisfaction system – but you know what I mean. I haven't had a chance to do either though as today's plan has been all about lunch with Mother-in-Law or Granny, for the benefit of daughter and son.Lunch with J and W is always a fun affair and holds several benefits for myself and Mrs G, namely that we don't have to cook it and there's the luxury of W's carrots and J's fruity crumbles. They're both retired now and are keen Allotmenteer's (I'm sure that's the correct nomenclature, unless you know otherwise) and the results of their hardwork are always more flavoursome than anything a supermarket can turn out. Their current batch of strawberries are to die for and the rhubarb crumble was second to none. There is only one downside to the whole event but it's not one to really grumble about. They're of a generation that doesn't posses or has any interest in possessing a dishwasher. All this means is that we go home with hands as soft as our faces thanks to the "wild green hairy lipped squid"…. Oh hang about, I mean "mild green fairy liquid" there's a shaggy dog story of a joke in there somewhere, but don't ask where. Which reminds me. On the subject of jokes, I've learned that there are actually two types of people in the world. Those who like cliffhangers…

HIV Antibody Test
The Antibody Test is a third generation test that tests for HIV antibodies. This test is the standard test offered by many sexual health clinics.
Antibodies are produced by the body in response to disease. If you have been infected with HIV, your body will produce antibodies to try to fight the infection. These antibodies can be detected through testing after three months, by the means of a blood sample.
Better2Know no longer offer this test, The 28 day test is a better test. The HIV Duo 28 day test looks for the p24 antigen, as well as the antibodies that the 90 day test looks for, therefore making the Duo test more accurate. By having the Duo test, you no longer have to wait the agonising three months before you have the test, and have the peace of mind to be tested only 28 days after the incident.

Treyarch's popular Call of Duty title has been ported to Android devices as Black Ops Zombies which is currently offered for $6.99 at Google Play. This has been confirmed by Ideaworks Game Studio and Glu Mobile, Inc who adapted and distributed the game for the mobile platform, respectively. However, Sony has won a 30-day exclusivity bid so Call of Duty: Black Ops Zombies will be made available for Xperia devices for a month.
"We couldn't be more excited to launch first on Sony's critically acclaimed line-up of Xperia devices," said Greg Canessa, Vice President of Mobile Development at Activision Publishing, Inc.
Among the many promises made for the blockbuster title are the following features:
Kino Der Toten. It can literally be translated to English as "Cinema of the Dead," this map is one of the most acclaimed environment for CoD gamers. Ideaworks Game Studio promised to make the port as close to the original version as possible. Thus, we could expect to see Crawler Zombies and Fire Pit trap in this version of Kino Der Toten.
50 Levels of Dead Ops Arcade. Dead Ops Arcade is the perhaps the most popular map in the Black Ops title. In the original version, it could be unlocked by typing 3ARC UNLOCK in the CIA computer but the Android version offers it as a 50-level feature for gamers to complete. This is never going to be a short game and while the developer promised smooth controls, having to play Black Ops Zombies on a touchscreen might be difficult for some hard core gamers.
Last Stand Mode. It's been confirmed that there will also be Last Stand Mode in the Android version offering Quick Revive in single player mode. Basically, this is a survival mode for Black Ops and it will be featuring almost everything from the original version.
Pack-a-Punch and Mystery Boxes. In light to making the Android version as close as possible to the original version, there will also be Pack-a-Punch, Mystery boxes and other perks that gamers are used to seeing while playing Black Ops in PC or consoles.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Zombies is now available at Google Play Store for $6.99. Treyarch and Activision wanted that its all-time popular title can be also be appreciated by mobile gamers. Basically, this version is seeking to provide gamers a platform where they can continue playing with their favorite game on the go.
For now, you may be seeing a note that it's not compatible with your device but wait until early September and you will be able to install it successfully.

'Road from Corbett to be developed as green belt'
The 88 km long Kandi Road passing through the Corbett Park will be developed as a 'green road', Harak Singh Rawat forest minister announced on Thursdaydehradun Updated: Jun 29, 2017 20:58 IST
The 88 km long Kandi Road passing through the Corbett Park will be developed as a 'green road', Harak Singh Rawat forest minister announced on Thursday.
The government will rope in Wildlife Institute of India (WII) in this endeavour for the first-of-its kind road to be developed with eco-friendly engineering. Incidentally, the WII had published a report on adopting green measures for linear infrastructure development inside protected areas.
"We will make this as green road so as to ensure safety of wildlife as well as people," Rawat told Hindustan Times.
The ambitious road project, a brain child of chief minister TS Rawat, aims at reducing distance between Garhwal and Kumaon to over 70 km and reducing travel time to at least three hours.
The Uttarakhand Ecotourism Corporation will be the project's nodal agency that will ensure safety measures and other ecotourism activities. The government plans to establish watch towers along with other attractions for tourists.
About 22km of the road will pass through Corbett Tiger Reserve and about 10km will have Corbett on one side and Amangarh on the other.
The minister informed that the proposal of the project will be brought before the State Board for Wildlife following which it will be submitted to the National Board for Wildlife for a final approval. In 2015, the Supreme Court had restored powers of the national wildlife board and such clearances can be now given by the board itself.
Corbett to close Bijrani zone from July 1
The Corbett National Park authorities would shut down the Bijrani zone, one of the five zones where tourists are allowed, on July 1. Two other zones --- Dhikala and Durga Devi --- have already been closed.
Only Dhela and Jhirna zones remain open for tourists throughout the year, Corbett Park's deputy director Amit Verma said.
The three zones remain closed during the monsoon months when the internal roads often break down.
Of the 5 eco-tourism zones, each with different landscape, the Dhikala remains open from November 15 to June 15, Bijrani from October 15 to June 30, and Durga Devi November 15 to June 15.
In case of flooding in the Dhela river, the authorities can shut down the Dhela and Jhirna zones too.
Another zone, the Sitabani, is a reserved forest area outside the Corbett Park, which acts as a buffer and is open around the year.
With inputs from Ahinav Madhwal from Haldwani.

In physical education class, the students will be exposed to a variety of fun, but challenging activities. Some of our units will be low organized games such as tagging/fleeing games, fitness, volleyball, soccer, basketball, basic tumbling, badminton/table tennis, team building, and kickball/softball. Emphasis is placed on every student giving their best effort each day.
As important as developing their fitness levels, increasing their knowledge and physical skills is developing life skills. Developing respect, an ability to work well with others, honesty, a positive attitude when trying new or challenging activities are all taught, encouraged and expected.
K-4th grade should have separate non-marking gym shoes at school for their PE days. 5th-8th graders are expected to have their complete gym uniform and separate non-marking gym shoes every PE day.
We are going to have a great year in PE!

Lake Norman & Mooresville
Child actor thinks of 'Army Wives' role as a hobby
Davidson resident Jake Johnson runs around a backyard, alternately dousing others with his squirt gun and getting soaked by enemy fire. He's just like any other young boy, screaming, laughing, having fun with friends. There's just one difference.
A director stands, and ends the scene that's being shot for the Lifetime series "Army Wives." Here, he is not Jake Johnson, but Lucas Moran. And there's a problem.
It looks as though Jake has blood dripping down his face.
But it's not blood. It's red hair dye used to make Jake look more like his TV parents and sibling.
Just another day in the life of a child actor.
Jake, now 11, began acting about six years ago, when he went to an open audition for the Will Ferrell movie "Talladega Nights." He was cast as the 5-year-old Ricky Bobby character, and had a great time on the set. He followed that up with several commercials and an episode of "One Tree Hill," and felt like he was "getting the hang of how everything goes," when he decided to audition for the pilot episode of "Army Wives."
He and his mother, Emily, traveled to Charleston for the audition, where 6-year-old Jake had a tough line to try out with: "Dad got the Ferrari of plasma screen TV's!" He nailed it, and after a callback, was cast as the son of Pamela and Chase Moran, played by Brigid Brannagh and Jeremy Davidson.
At the time, the Johnsons had no idea what might happen next. The series may not be picked up, or they may recast the child actors. Little did they know then that "Army Wives" would become Lifetime's highest rated series in history.
Fast forward to today, and Jake is currently shooting his fourth season. The process has presented logistical challenges, since the series is shot in Charleston and the Johnson family lives in River Run.
"We usually head down after school to be up the next day at 5 and start shooting," said Jake. "Sometimes I'm shooting for a day, sometimes four days."
"It was hard to get used to the first season, but now we have a pretty good system worked out," his mother said.
Though he had some butterflies in the beginning, Jake is usually comfortable in front of the camera, with one exception. "There was a scene where I had to burp at the dinner table - and I don't know how to burp," he recalls. "I was really nervous, so I went on You Tube to learn. I practiced every day, and did it the day of filming - and then they cut the scene!"
In addition to belching, Jake has learned other things as well. "There's so much waiting, you have to learn how to be really patient. You do a lot of waiting on the set, and then you shoot the same scene over and over, from all different angles."
Not that he minds. He's befriended much of the cast and crew, got to sit in the director's chair, and met all kinds of new people.
Though he thinks he'd like to carry on acting, he's content, for now, to treat it as a hobby. In every other aspect, the Woodlawn School student is just like other 11-year-olds, playing soccer, piano, drums and running cross country.
He just has head shots.

Printed on the back of Darling Magazine is a promise. It begins with the publication's mission to "be a catalyst for positive change," ending with "women are not just here, but here for a purpose." It's a mantra clothed in the guise of a mission statement whose phrases, and the words in between, sum up Darling's essence: the art of being a woman.
More coffee table tome than glossy fashion bible, Darling's pages are filled with profiles and poems, introspection and hilarity – pieces written by real women about real women problems, with nary an artificially air-brushed model in sight. The publication's features are divided into sections ranging from "The Dreamer" and "The Intellectual," to "The Stylist" and "The Confidant" – all descriptions of individual women, or the distinct facets that combine to make a woman an individual.
Darling's story began in 2009 in Los Angeles, CA when editor-in-chief Sarah Dubbeldam decided to create something more than just a typical print magazine. And maybe that's Darling's biggest calling card: defying the norms of celebrity, excess and perfection lauded in the majority of women's magazines today, replacing them instead with authenticity, respect and a celebration of the aspects that make every woman unique.
That's not to say the magazine is devoid of celebrity, fashion or general girliness. There are articles about style – they're just about embracing your body, not striving for skinniness – romance – focused on a mutual sense of respect in relationships versus serial dating – and celebrity – honest accounts told by those in the spotlight, not inflated glamorization. But there are also pieces on women's urge to have it all, combatting ego in relationships and dealing with depression and anxiety. Darling embraces all sides of the story, not just the pretty parts.
At $20 per quarterly issue, the price may compel you to pick up a more wallet-friendly tabloid in the checkout line. But what Darling lacks in economy it makes up for in content: encased within its pages are stories of beautifully authentic women daring to be nothing more or less than themselves. And that's a promise Darling intends to keep.

Wheezing is a common symptom of various respiratory disorders that cause tightening in the throat. There are several ways a person can stop their wheezing at home without using an inhaler, but these will depend on the cause. Wheezing happens when the airways are tightened, blocked, or inflamed, making a person's breathing sound like whistling or squeaking. Common causes include a cold, asthma, allergies, or more serious conditions, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
The following home treatments for wheezing aim to open up the airways, reduce the irritants or pollution that a person breathes in, or treat the underlying causes of the wheezing.
Effective home remedies for wheezing include:
Steam inhalation
Inhaling warm, moisture-rich air can be very effective for clearing the sinuses and opening up the airways. To do this, a person can use the following method:
- Pour hot water into a large bowl and breathe in the steam.
- Place a towel over the head to trap extra moisture.
- Add a few drops of menthol or eucalyptus oil to the water to make the stream more powerful.
Peppermint essential oil may have pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory effects. Research from 2013 suggests that it may relax the muscles of the respiratory system, which could help to relieve wheezing and other respiratory problems.
If a steam bath does not appeal to you, a sauna room or hot shower can also help loosen congestion. Gently tapping on the back or chest and breathing deeply can help the steam work even better.
Hot drinks
Warm and hot drinks can help to loosen up the airways and relieve congestion.
Honey is a natural anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial, so adding a teaspoon of honey to a hot drink may further improve a person's symptoms. Some people find that peppermint or other menthol teas work well. A person can try experimenting with different teas to find one that helps.
Breathing exercises
Breathing exercises may help with COPD, bronchitis, allergies, and other common causes of wheezing. Breathing exercises often include deep, regular inhalations and exhalations. A doctor or respiratory therapist can help with deciding the most effective breathing techniques.
A person may find that they have trouble breathing during a panic attack. Deep breathing exercises can also assist here. It may help to try slow breathing, focusing on breathing deeply into the stomach, and counting breathes.
A humidifier may help to reduce wheezing. During the dry winter months, wheezing often gets worse. A humidifier in the bedroom can help loosen congestion and reduce the severity of wheezing. A person can add peppermint or other oils to the water in the humidifier, though they should check the humidifier's instructions before adding anything other than water.
Air filters
Many conditions that cause wheezing can get worse when the air is polluted or in response to allergens. A home air filter can reduce the presence of irritants that may trigger wheezing and breathing trouble.
Identifying and removing triggers
Chronic illnesses such as asthma and allergies may get worse in response to certain triggers, such as stress or allergens. Controlling these triggers, as much as possible, can help.
For instance, a person with a chronic respiratory condition who also has allergies might take allergy medication and avoid allergy triggers.
Allergy medications
People with allergies can benefit from a wide variety of allergy medications, including decongestants, corticosteroid tablets, and antihistamines.
Nasal sprays may be especially helpful to relieve a tight chest, congestion, and inflammation that can cause wheezing.
More severe allergies may require prescription allergy medication.
Allergy immunotherapy
Immunotherapy is a process of retraining the immune system not to react to allergens.
The most common form of immunotherapy is allergy shots. A person may need several treatments, but over time, immunotherapy can reduce the frequency of wheezing. Immunotherapy may also be helpful for people with other chronic conditions, such as COPD, who also have allergies.
Bronchodilators are medications that help relax the lungs and prevent the airways from narrowing. They can help with wheezing caused by COPD and asthma.
Bronchodilators come in two forms:
Short-acting bronchodilators: Sometimes known as rescue inhalers, these can stop an asthma or COPD attack.
Long-acting bronchodilators: This variety helps relax the airways over the long-term, reducing the frequency and severity of wheezing episodes.
Other medications
A wide variety of medications can treat wheezing that is due to underlying illness. A person who experiences wheezing due to a severe allergic reaction, for instance, may require epinephrine or corticosteroids.
People with heart health issues may take blood pressure medication or blood thinners to prevent further damage to the heart.
It is vital to discuss with a doctor whether medication might help, and how various medications may interact with one another.

Your novel is finished, revised, and ready to go. You've slaved over your query to make it the best it can be. You're ready to start submitting to literary agents. Staying away from the formidable form rejection is a difficult task, especially when literary agents are receiving hundreds of queries a week. There are some pointers, however, that will help you not get that "automatic" no.
1. Address the query to the specific agent: Nothing says novice than "Dear Agent" or "To Whom It May Concern." JUST DON'T DO IT. Agents want to feel that you have researched them and have picked them out on purpose. By not even giving them the courtesy of addressing them specifically, you are setting up yourself for an automatic "no" before they even read that first line.
2. Follow the agent's specific requests: Some want a synopsis, others don't. Some want a greeting first, others want to know the story right from the first sentence of the query. Some want to know about your five dogs and twelve cats, most want just the basics. This is where research comes in. Do not EVER send the full manuscript (or even a partial) if they do not ask for it.
3. Make sure the query is free from errors: This seems like a given, but agents have frequently complained that queries oftentimes have glaring errors (including agent's misspelled name) that are a big turn-off.
4. For the most part, queries should not be long: There are a slew of websites/books that address how to properly write a query letter, so I will just say that it should never be longer than a page. One-Two paragraphs on what the book is about (include title, genre, and word count), and possibly a short paragraph on yourself (and for nonfiction, why you're qualified to write the book).
5. Do not compare it to successful novels: "This is the next Harry Potter!" No, no, no, no, no. Let your book speak for itself.
6. Do not insult the agent: "If you do not like this book, then there is something seriously wrong with you." No, no, no...
7. Are you querying an agent who actually represents what you write? Do not send queries to agents who do not rep your genre. Most agency sites have detailed lists about what they are looking for and what they are not. I can't say it enough: RESEARCH!
So, let's say you do all of that (I do), and you still get that formidable form rejection (I do), what then?
1. Be brutally honest with yourself: If all queries come back with a form rejection, you need to take a good hard look at your query and your book as a whole. It may need a revision. Regroup, rework, revise, then start researching agents again.
2. Set the project aside: This is difficult, isn't it? You know your book is brilliant. Still, set it aside. Coming back to it weeks or even months later helps you see it differently.
3. Take some time to read/reread books in your genre: This will help you look critically at your own work to see if you measure up or if your work needs revision.
4. Start writing another project: Get your mind off the other one for a while. The more we write, the better we get.
5. Lastly, NEVER GIVE UP. It will never happen if you quit.
Here's to publishing success for all of us! Do you have any pointers to share? Leave me a comment below.

au naturel.
Some of you may recognize Alexandra from a former photo set which you can see HERE. The above image, the first shot from a recent session, was meant to serve only as a focus test. I hadn't even set up my lighting yet. I never planned on it seeing the light of day. Once I saw it on my computer, however, I fell in love with it and needed to share it. So here it is, unretouched, au naturel. I feel it is so emotional, a real moment - which contrasted the rest of the beauty shoot which was meant to capture only her lips/chin and shoulders (which explains the lipstick but bare eyes). This is certainly one of my favourite images I've taken recently, especially when juxtaposed with the clean and crisp beauty images that followed - which I will hopefully be able to share in the near future.

Doors Open: General 54
Where are you located?
5145 St Laurent Blvd in the Mile End district of Montreal
What makes your neighbourhood unique?
Mile End began as a cheap place for artists and musicians to live. I moved here in 1996 because my rent was $465 for a huge 2 bedroom (just to give you and idea) Then it started to flourish and a name was made. The Mile End was the place to make everything- art, music, clothing, small businesses started to open all over our little neighbourhood. In 2003 we started the first ''Made in Montreal'' boutique to help our sisters and brothers sell their goods. It then grew to include our second store General 54 in 2006 because we needed more space. I think in the early 2000's we were bubbling with artistic fervour. The vibe is still contained in this beautiful fun area.
What's the best 'hidden gem' in your area?
Best Hidden GEM...I would have to say, there is not a lot that is still hidden here. Probably my favourite cake shop is Cocoa Locale on Parc ave. Best chocolate cupcakes and cakes in the whole world. (4807 Av du Parc, Montréal, QC H2V 4E7)
What are some great brands you carry?
We proudly carry Birds of North America, Sunja link, Dagg & Stacey (for clothing) and for Jewelry, we have Kara Yoo, Moonlight for Violet, Cartouche Mtl, I Love Goldeen and of course Mary Young for intimates. Gattina bathing suits, Hinkleville for the cutest housewares ever! And I have a line 'Jennifer Glasgow Design' that we sell as well as my in-house basics brand 'Lacroix'
Who's instagram should we all be following?
Birds of North America, I Love Goldeen and Jennifer Glasgow Design :)
Who is your dream customer?
Our dream customer is someone who knows who she is. Has a great sense of personal style. She knows she can walk into our store and find her precious seasonal outfit without any problem. She is professional and artsy with a flare for making something stand out. She also LOVES Canadian fashion!

Consultation on Admission Arrangements 2020-21
This document provides a background to the statutory consultation exercise for the admission arrangements to secondary schools in the borough of Wandsworth Council, and seeks comments on the Academy's existing admission arrangements.
- There are no proposed changes to the Academy's admission procedures.
- Consultees are asked to consider the admission arrangements for Ashcroft Technology Academy and, if they so wish, to comment.
- Consultees who do not respond by Friday 21 December 2018 will be assumed to agree with the arrangements.
- The consultation will close on Friday 21 December 2018 and responses should be e-mailed to email@example.com under the title 'Response to Admissions Consultation 2020/2021 by the closing date.
The Academy is consulting all interested parties, including Trustees, the Executive Board, staff members, parents and community groups, on its admission arrangements for the Academic year 2020-21, and subsequent academic years. This consultation is a statutory exercise, even although there are no proposed changes to the Academy's admission arrangements and procedures. There has been a recent change made to the Academy's admission arrangements. The Academy was asked by the borough of Wandsworth Council to temporarily increase the number of students it admits in Year 7 (in September 2018) from 210 to 215 to help accommodate an increase in the number of applications received for a secondary school place. This prompted the Academy to consider the capacity of its school buildings, the growing increase in numbers seeking a place at Ashcroft Technology Academy each year and to propose a model that would meet the increased demand for a place in Year 7 for September 2019 and every year thereafter. With the agreement of the Academy's Trustees and the Executive Board, the Academy increased its Published Admission Number (PAN) from 210 in Year 7 to 240, therefore adding an extra form class (from 7 forms of entry to 8 forms of entry) to the year group from September 2019 and to every Year 7 cohort thereafter.
Further action
- A copy of the Admissions Criteria 2019 to 2020 is available on the Academy's website for consultees' information and consideration.
- Consultees are advised that the Academy requires any comments on this document to be received by Friday 21 December 2018. Comments should be e-mailed to firstname.lastname@example.com under the title 'Response to Admission Consultation 2020/2021.
- All comments will be submitted to the Executive board for discussion.

This Passion Fruit Mousse is deliciously light and creamy. Passion fruit desserts are so wonderful as they are almost always tart, sweet and aromatic. This mousse is no exception, and it's lovely served on its own, and fantastic with chocolate!Update September 30, 2018: Originally published in 2014, this post was just updated with additional information and new photographs.
Years ago, at a friend's birthday party, I had a bite of one of the most delicious things I'd ever tasted. It was light and airy, and sweet and tart. I couldn't pin point what the tropical, somewhat intense flavor was.
About three bites in, I asked my Brazilian chef friend, Rosalia, who'd catered the party. Turns out, I was eating passion fruit mousse.
This was not just any passion fruit mousse, oh no — you see, everything made by Rosalia was special. So I know it was not only created perfectly, but it must have been full of good vibes and love. (Those are bonafide ingredients, you know.)
This post may contain Amazon affiliate links for your convenience at no additional cost to you.
While for me this was something new, Rosalia told me how popular passion fruit desserts are in Brazil and that passion fruit mousse is quite common there.
Let me tell you, once I learned this divine flavor which I initially couldn't even name was passion fruit, it has become one of my favorite exotic, tropical fruits.
The passion fruit mousse was thick, rich and creamy, while somehow still light. And it was ever so delicately flavored with the absolutely dreamy, tropical taste of passion fruit.
You can buy frozen passion fruit juice at most Latin markets — OR — you can learn how easy it is to cut and juice fresh passion fruits here, which of course I think is the way to go, but I promise I won't judge if you purchase.
My passion fruit mousse recipe isn't Rosalia's, though I think the flavor and texture are pretty close. I hope you love it!
And . . . . No-Churn Passion Fruit Ice Cream!
Guess what!? You can freeze the mousse and create the most luscious, beautiful No-Churn Passion Fruit Ice Cream! Try it both ways and let me know what you think.
And here are a few more delectable passion fruit desserts:
- Passion Fruit Chocolate Ganache Bars
- Passion Fruit Ginger Cheesecake Bars
- Mango Passion Fruit Ice Cream from Marcellina In Cucina
This Passion Fruit Mousse is deliciously light and creamy, lovely served on its own, and fantastic with chocolate!
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 cup passion fruit juice - click here for How to Juice a Passion Fruit (about 10 passion fruits)
- 3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 3/4 teaspoon vanilla
Use an electric mixer with the whisk attachment to whip the cream until stiff peaks form.
Fold in the passion fruit juice, condensed milk and vanilla and mix only until everything is evenly incorporated.
Chill the mousse in the refrigerator, (covered either in a bowl with plastic wrap or in a plastic container with a lid), for about 2 hours before serving.
If you want to make No Churn Passion Fruit Ice Cream, simply place in the freezer instead of the refrigerator.
Please note that 2 hours of the prep time is inactive. And juicing the passion fruit is not included, which would take about 10 additional minutes.

We have a cupboard in our kitchen that is to the left of our sink over our microwave. With all the glassware we have, you'd think we'd put it to good use. That's not the case. At the present time, it holds in addition to the dog's heartworm pills, mostly junk. Every month when I open it to find the dog's heartworm pills, stuff falls all over me, mostly ketchup packets. I hate those little packets raining down on me, so I seldom open the cupboard.
For reasons unbeknownst to me, my husband hoards those little ketchup packets. You know, the ones that come with fast food. There are tons of them. It does me no good to toss them, because more of them appear.
Steve is a sensible man. I can't imagine why he hoards these things, unless he knows something I don't.
He's been to the Army Medical Service Corps basic course, the Army Chaplain basic course, the Army Chaplain advanced course, and the Navy Chaplain basic course. He's got the Marine Command and Staff college under his belt. He took a chemical and biological warfare class when he was in the Army and we'd returned from Germany. He's finishing up a second masters' degree in military history.
All I can think of is that eventually the dollar will devalue to the point where people burn it, use it for toilet paper, or paper their walls, and that we'll need all these annoying little packets of ketchup…causing our own variation of what happened in Germany during the Weimar Republic. I don't know for sure. I do know that since Steve has hoarded ketchup packages for years, that he doesn't tie this with the current administration. I keep imagining that as their military instructors are lecturing them, in military schools across the country, that the one constant in all of these classes is the admonition to hoard ketchup so they can survive when the dollar collapse. He won't confirm or deny this to me. However, he has a security clearance. He can't tell me everything he knows.
All I know is that he hoards ketchup. I wonder. Will we have to pay for things in person with packages of ketchup, or will you be able to transfer it electronically like we do with our current currency? Will the government replace ketchup packages that have been emptied or destroyed, or will we be out of luck?
Will ketchup stains replace the red dye packets that explode in money that's taken when people rob banks? What's the logistics of carrying this stuff in purses and wallets?
I had a government job once. I didn't have a security clearance. I did, however, have to sign something that said that I would not disclose information that I knew through my job. That was as far as it went. I didn't have a real security clearance, so that may be why I don't know anything. I was never privy to any real sensitive information, other than the fact, that because I worked for the organization that paid all of the Army's commissary bills in the Midwestern US, that I knew that Oscar Mayer, at least in the late '80's owned Jello. I used to make myself ill trying to figure out the WHYS of that possibility. It still bothers me when I think about it. But now I'm concerned about more important things. Will our world economy eventually run on the ketchup standard? And do we have enough ketchup packets to support us in our twilight years? If you're another civilian, you won't know, and if you're a government employee I know you can't tell me, or you'll have to jail me for giving away state secrets. I understand completely. But that still doesn't keep me from wondering. So, every time those annoying little things fall on me, I dutifully stuff them back in. And I wait…wondering….

The Eyebrows are the most defining feature of the face. Do you want a simple way to improve your looks? Changing the look of your eyebrows can give an immediate improvement in your appearance. They frame your face, emphasize your eyes and accentuate your expression. They can make you look years younger. It's the Ultimate Instant Facelift! With Micropigmentation you can toss those brow pencils away. If your brows are too light in color or have a gap in your brows due to a scar with the help of Micropigmentation you don't have to worry about smudging brows or applying and reapplying your makeup throughout the day.
Microblading otherwise known as the hair stroke technique is a semi-permanent technique used with a manual tool for creating the most natural beautiful brows possible. ***It's a technique that is more suitable for clients that have some natural hair in place.***
The Microblading technique mimics your own eyebrow hairs thus creating a feathering effect. Linda also knows a few techniques to lift the eyebrows to make you look years younger.
Linda believes no two set of brows are the same. The unique bone structure and contours of your face will play a significant part in the look and shape of your brows. Your bone structure and eyes will tell where your brows should be and give a natural template to begin your treatment.
Linda uses only high quality micropigmentation pigments on the market today, while these micropigmentation colors may initially simulate the exact color and tone desired, they will not always be a perfect match. Your skin color will vary depending on; exposure to sun, cold, heat, certain medications and circulatory changes. We use one-time disposable needles for every permanent makeup procedure.

HemoPalm is a handheld whole blood analyzer and single-use cartridge, with full hospital IT integration, which bring lab-quality blood analysis to the bedside in critical care.
Relay Medical Corp.'s HemoPalm IP enables a combination of full CO-oximetry and blood gases on a single use cartridge, in a handheld analyzer. Up until the early 1990s, many Laboratory blood gas analyzers and CO-oximeters were separate analyzers. Currently, many Laboratory blood gas analyzers and CO-oximeters are integrated. HemoPalm intends to be the first company to integrate blood gases, electrolytes and CO-oximetry in one hand-held analyzer, using a consumable single use cartridge.
In 2014, the global POCT market for Blood Gases & Electrolytes was estimated to be $1.5 Billion. Laboratory and cart-carried Blood Gases & Electrolytes analyzers have evolved over the years to provide CO-oximetry and Bilirubin, but hand-held analyzers have not evolved like the larger analyzers. HemoPalm is positioned to be the only hand-held analyzer that will provide Blood Gases, Electrolytes, CO-oximetry and Bilirubin in a single disposable cartridge.
The HemoPalm IP integrates full CO-oximetry, measured through spectroscopy, which allows the user to measure total hemoglobin (Hb), Oxy-Hb, Deoxy-Hb, Met-Hb and carboxy-Hb, simultaneously with blood gases and electrolytes measured with electrochemical sensors, from the same blood sample on the same cartridge. CO-oximetry has traditionally been performed using bench-top analyzers that are large, expensive, and usually located in central laboratories. There are many benefits to providing these blood tests near or at the point of care of patients, but these benefits are not realized due to the size and cost of the bench-top analyzers. In addition, the blood sample can be collected directly into the cartridge from a finger prick or, in the case of neonatals, a heel prick-prick, as an alternative to an arterial sample taken with a syringe, which makes the technology applicable in the markets outside of a main stream clinical setting like first responders, military, emerging economies and disaster relief. These are all areas where central labs are simply not available. In the hospital setting it allows rapid patient analysis in situations like emergency department triage.

Parents, Take Note: 'Incredibles 2' Uses A Lot Of Strobe Lights
A concerned citizen is asking all movie houses showing Incredibles 2 to include a strobe-light warning because some scenes in the film may be harmful to people with epilepsy.
Health Risks Of Strobe Lights
Veronica Lewis, a blogger who goes by the name @veron4ic, started the warning thread in a series of tweets. In a spoiler-free post, she revealed that the sequel contains scenes involving strobe or flashing lights that could be harmful to people suffering from photosensitive epilepsy and other chronic illnesses. Likewise, the lights may also affect those who suffer from migraines, flicker vertigo, ADHD, autism, PTSD, seizure conditions, and vision impairment.
Lewis cited the film's villain uses rapidly flashing lights to disorient people. One scene that involves the continuous strobe light lasts over one minute while the others last from five to 30 seconds. The scenes with the strobe lights are also found anywhere in the film. Lewis revealed that they often come without warning. She said her descriptive audio device alerted her about the bigger scenes. However, the light strobe lights appear out of nowhere for no reason.
Strobe-Light Warning
The health advocate clarified that she is not calling for a boycott of Incredibles 2 or for theaters to change the movie. She even praised the film for being "very well done" and acknowledged that the strobe lights are important to the plot in the story.
However, Lewis is asking Disney/Pixar and theaters showing the movie to issue a warning about the strobe lights for viewers. She pointed out that even video games, some music videos, theme park attractions, live concerts, and even electronic products provide strobe-light warnings and its adverse effects and potential health risk for people suffering from seizures. Lewis is asking for the same warning from a movie aimed at kids, which she said can help parents make the appropriate decision involving their kids' health and safety. It also benefits those suffering from chronic illnesses since they are made aware of potential triggers.
Disney has made the appropriate action in response to Lewis' health alert and asked theaters showing Incredibles 2 to issue a strobe-light warning for viewers. Movie houses posted the warning sign on ticket windows. Lewis thanked Disney and Pixar for the swift response and thanked other people for helping spread her warning. She said her goal of having signs posted in movie theaters has been reached.
