But a Loyola University Health System study has found the drug aprepitant can dramatically reduce both nausea and vomiting when combined with other anti-nausea drugs.
Seventy-three percent of patients receiving aprepitant experienced no vomiting during the study period, compared with 23 percent of patients who received a placebo. (Both groups also received a standard anti-nausea drug.) Forty-nine percent of aprepitant patients experienced no vomiting and little or no nausea, compared with 15 percent of the placebo group.
Dr. Patrick Stiff presenting findings at the 2010 BMT Tandem Meetings in Orlando, Fla. His study received a Best Abstract Award from the Center for International Blood & Marrow Transplant Research, one of two organizations sponsoring the meetings. The other sponsor is the American Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation.
Aprepitant (brand name Emend®) was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 2003 to help prevent and control vomiting and nausea from chemotherapy. However, there previously had been only a few small studies on the benefit of aprepitant in bone marrow transplant patients, who receive higher doses of chemotherapy than most other cancer patients. "We did not know how effective aprepitant would be for bone marrow transplant patients," Stiff said. "We now believe this should become a standard part of patients' care."
Bone marrow transplant patients say nausea/vomiting is the second-worst side effect of the treatment. (The only thing worse is mouth and throat sores.) Patients can throw up three to five times a day for a week or longer.
Other anti-nausea/vomiting drugs work by blocking signals from the stomach. But signals from the brain still can make a patient queasy. Aprepitant acts to block nausea/vomiting signals from the brain, and is taken together with drugs that block signals from the stomach.
In Stiff's Phase III, blinded, prospective study, 90 bone marrow transplant patients were randomly assigned to receive aprepitant and 89 patients were randomly assigned to receive a placebo.
The aprepitant group did not experience significantly more side effects than the placebo group. Aprepitant also had no meaningful impact on the success of the transplant, relapse rates or overall survival.
Bone marrow transplants are used to treat such diseases as leukemia, lymphoma and Hodgkin's disease. Patients receive high-dose chemotherapy to kill cancer cells. Chemotherapy also kills immune system cells. So patients receive infusions of donated bone marrow cells that develop into healthy new immune cells.
Loyola has the largest bone marrow transplant program in Illinois. "One of the main themes of our research is to make bone marrow transplants more patient-friendly," Stiff said. "Transplants are much more comfortable and easier to tolerate than they were a few years ago."
Previous studies at Loyola were instrumental in showing the effectiveness of the drug palifermin in preventing mouth and throat sores in transplant patients.
Stiff is director of Loyola's Cardinal Bernardin Cancer Center and lead author of the study. Co-authors, all at Loyola, are Mary Fox-Geiman, PharmD; Karen Kiley, MSN, NP; Nancy Porter, MSN; Donna Fletcher-Gonzalez, PharmD; Scott Smith, MD, PhD and Tulio Rodriguez, MD.
The study was supported in part by a research grant from the Investigator-Initiated Studies Program of Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp.

Middle School
Middle School students have earned their places at the table.
They are active. They are engaged. They have teachers who guide them to make the most of every personal, social, and intellectual opportunity before them.
Pine Point's middle school program honors adolescence by offering an exceptional environment for students who are eager to learn as they are challenged. It is designed to bridge our nurturing lower school program and the independent high school years ahead. Students are surrounded by peers who share their desire to strive academically and to learn ethically.
Pine Point students want to push the limits and learn on their own while knowing they are safe and accepted as they struggle with challenges. The program's structure allows them to make mistakes and respond constructively to those moments of growth. Through that process of self-discovery we view our students as leaders and prepare them for success in that role.
Learn More About Our Programs
Strong Minds
A Pine Point Middle School student stretches beyond their comfort zone to engage in new ways. In addition to our rigorous academic classes, all students take courses in dance, music, studio art, world language, and physical education. Most students are three season athletes. Ninth grade students identify, develop, implement and present semester-long independent art projects, built on the foundation of skills and experiences from previous years.
Overnight travel is part of the curriculum in all middle school grades, with the distance and duration of trips expanding as the students grow; from an environmental education program at URI's Alton Jones campus, to Boston, the White Mountains, and Hawaii, the students focus on art, geography, history, and ecology.
Caring Hearts
A Pine Point Middle School student is proud to serve as a role model to our younger students. Throughout the year, middle school students work with lower school students on service learning projects, as academic learning partners, and as friends playing games. Our middle school student are able to develop a strong sense of responsibility because they are the leaders.
A Pine Point Middle School student is empowered to share their voice with the community. Throughout the program students gain an understanding of their impact on their own learning, their peers, and the broader world, far beyond school.

Huangling invites visitors to join the annual shaiqiu cultural festival
Ancient village Huangling will be hosting the second China (Huangling) Shaiqiu Culture Festival on July 9 by the ancient stage, highlighting the unique local folk tradition of shaiqiu, or "crop dry in mid-air" through a series of activities and performances.
Huangling's signature spectacle shaiqiu is a symbol of the village's historic and cultural heritage. Throughout the year, villagers are sun drying harvests and produces like hot chili peppers, pumpkin slices and chrysanthemum flowers in bamboo baskets on roofs across Huangling to preserve the foods.
Hailed as China's most beautiful countryside in China, Huangling's signature spectacle shaiqiu is a symbol of the village's historic and cultural heritage. Throughout the year, villagers sun dry harvests and produce like hot chili peppers, pumpkin slices and chrysanthemum flowers in bamboo baskets on roofs across Huangling to preserve the foods.
"The folk tradition shaiqiu is a very local phenomenon originated when the villagers had to use the roofs and windowsills to dry basketfuls of produces in the sun, the layered view of the vibrant colors is a strong contrast to the Hui-style architecture, and we aim to present the well-preserved shaiqiu to more visitors from around the world through the annual festival," said Wu Xiangyang, CEO of Wuyuan Rural Culture Development Co., Ltd.
On July 9, the villagers in Huangling are taking the folk tradition to another level by arranging the vegetables and fruits creatively in different shapes and patterns. They will also be performing winnowing for visitors, which is an important step of the shaiqiuprocess. Renowned folk experts and scholars in China will be explaining the cultural meanings of shaiqiu to visitors in Huangling.
The day of the festival marks the 6th day of the 6th month on the Chinese lunar calendar, which is the traditional bathing and basking festival in China. Every family takes out clothes and shoes as well as chili peppers and vegetables to dry in the sun, because the humid weather of the rainy season at this time of the year can easily cause things to go moldy. In Huangling, the local residentsbring out kitchenware and old clothes to clean and dry under the sun as well.
A fashion show featuring traditional and folk costumes will be presented by the village girls on the 300-meter ancient Tianjie Street.
Huangling will also invite local artists to perform traditional Wuyuan folk songs including "Hometown" and "Song of Shaiqiu" to present an authentic countryside style concert.
In addition to inheriting the folk traditions and introducing shaiqiu to all visitors, the festival also marks the beginning of peak season of shaiqiu in Huangling.

Grade 3 Biography Project
Third graders have started an ambitious biography project. Working with a partner, they chose a biography of a famous person from a selection of books I had put together. I chose books with interesting people that were a good reading level for our third graders. Biography subjects included Amelia Earhart, Jane Goodall, Jacques Cousteau, George Washington Carver, Neil Armstrong and others. Students found a quiet spot in the library to read their book with their partner. They were given a graphic organizer to record important events from the person's life as well as challenges the person had to overcome. They were also asked to identify characters traits and give examples from the book of traits they identified. It was impressive to see students apply themselves to this project. I enjoyed hearing their insights as they read about their famous people.
We kicked off this project by reading a book by Suzanne Slade called The Inventor's Secret. It traced the lives of Thomas Edison and Henry Ford. The way the author presented the story of their lives, the students immediately picked up on the similarities between these two men born 16 years apart. Both love to tinker and invent things from the time they were young. Edison had a great deal of success. Ford, trying to perfect an automobile that was both affordable and roomy enough for a family, ran into problem after problem. Finally he decided to seek out Edison's advice. When the two men finally met, Henry Ford related the struggles he had been having creating an engine, Thomas Edison leaned forward, pounded the table and said, "Don't give up." Students loved this message of persistence. The two inventors became friends for life, another aspect the kids enjoyed.
As our project progresses, students will be gathering additional information about their biographical subject from an online source and creating a Power Point presentation to share what they have learned.

Threats to Russia: Real and Imagined
Joint conference by the German Council on Foreign Relations (DGAP) and Chatham House
Ever since his now famous speech in Munich 2007, Russian President Vladimir Putin's policies have been defined by the notion of a weakened Russia beleaguered by external and internal enemies. The portrayal of the West as prime among these enemies became even more prevalent following the global financial crisis in 2008/9 and in the wake of the 2011/2012 parliamentary and presidential elections, when mass demonstrations occurred in many large cities in Russia.
The Russian leadership has used its paradigm of a beleaguered Russia to both stoke fears and deflect public attention away from genuine dangers: rather than NATO or the European Union, it is Russia's domestic weakness, its economic standstill and the lack of reforms in the areas of health, education and research, as well as the demographic crisis which is putting Russia at risk.
In this joint event, the Russia and Eurasia Programme at Chatham House and the Robert Bosch Center of the German Council on Foreign Relations would like to invite you to discuss the real and also the imagined dangers which Russia is facing at home, in its neighborhood and in crisis regions such as the Middle East. This event is supported by the Robert Bosch Stiftung.
The event will be held in English.

The law of unintended consequences has just gone into effect with the drones. Just think how easy it would be capture a military drone in flight or any drone for that matter and then use it as an assassination weapon to go after who knows who. Then they could blame it on the military or sheriff that was supposed to be in control.
Think in terms of one of the drug cartels capturing control of a drone over the ocean and diverting it so that there was an open path to run the ships through. With so many drones in the air it would be hard not imagine this happening.
Then think in terms of vigilante justice where some group or even a person wants to settle a score or right a wrong.
Researchers are finding this possibility a very high probability.

Legend has it that the first olives to be cured were those that fell into the Mediterranean Sea. Olives were also the first fruit to be transferred from tree to table and have been harvested for thousands of years with the ancient preserving techniques of both salting and drying used to ensure they were able to be consumed throughout the year.
In ancient times, the removal of bitterness was facilitated by alkaline solutions. In rural Italy, the alkalinity was provided by using ash and diluting this in water, along with salt, to remove bitterness from the olives. In Greece, the traditional way to remove bitterness is to start with fresh water and add increasing amounts of salted water every day to achieve a final 8 per cent saltwater solution.
Today, in order to remove the bitterness, olives are industrially processed or "fermented" in much the same way as is done for cheese, salami and wine. The following are the most common methods used in Europe to accelerate fermentation:Heat - Hot water is added to emulate an 'incubator' and quicken the fermentation times.Sorbic Acids - Used to control yeasts and moulds during the fermentation process.Dry Salt Curing - Dousing the olives with rock salt to increase the removal of bitterness.Sodium Hydroxide or 'Lye' treatment - A process where the olives are 'shocked' for up to 12 hours and then have to be rinsed and re-brined for immediate consumption.
Every single one of our farmers and suppliers are our partners and they become a part of our family. Whether it is our tomatoes from Italy or our olives from Australia, we absolutely insist on working with families and business operators with the same values as we do.
Being true to your roots and true to your ingredients is the mantra that we live by so we make it our business to know where the food comes from and exactly what happens to it every step of the way through its journey to the plate. The result is a winning recipe every time.
The Lubrano family, the people behind the trusted Sandhurst brand, have been enjoying table olives for decades and while their own process is not quite as ancient, their association with slow curing olives goes back to their traditional Italian origins.
Nonna Geraldine and Nonno Vince both remember slow curing olives by hand in their respective villages. Vince used the same techniques to cure olives to sell in Australia after the couple created the Sandhurst brand three-decades ago.
Today, as one of Australia's most well-known families involved in the food processing business, Sandhurst has decided to return to the traditional idea of slowly curing olives without the use of sodium hydroxide, heat or sorbic acids. Accelerated processing times in Europe means it takes as little as 2-3 months for olives to cure, Sandhurst's use of the slow curing process means that it will take up to six months for delicious Australian olives to properly develop. Slow-curing Australian olives also means their colour will not be bright green or dark black as the acidity levels are not as intense as those used in the European process.
While the result is a slightly more bitter olive, that means it contains more valuable antioxidants, known as polyphenols, which help fight free radicals in our bodies. The Australian olive is generally picked in March or April by mechanical harvesters and will be slow cured soon after as the long, cold winter is ideal for slow fermentation in Australia. As the weather starts to cool, the olives will start to be slow cured in constantly replenished salt water – meaning these olives will be ready around October – just in time for summer where ideally they would be used in salads, on charcuterie boards or in light summer dishes.
Sandhurst Fine Foods has been working with the best Australian olive farmers for more than a decade to bring these beautiful local olives to market in a way that makes them unique and world-class. We hope you enjoy eating them as much as we enjoy creating them. Vince Lubrano, founder of Sandhurst states "I would back Australian Olives 100% - we can produce anything in this country and be better than the rest of the world."

Samuel and Ava playing with the brand new kitchen their Daddy made them for Christmas. Isn't it adorable, I was very impressed with my husband, I must say.
Samuel completely exhausted New Year's Night, they are so innocent and sweet when they are sleeping, aren't they? 2 minutes before this, he was running around like a chicken with his head cut off! LOL
Miss Ava and her cousin Stella. She is holding her cousin Macie's brand new puppy that she got for Christmas. She is a yorkidoodle and she is just the sweetest little thing.
So those are some of the pictures from New Years Day. The week after this the whole family got the flu : ( So, that was a bad week, to say the least. Of course, Ava had it the worst, her fever got so high (almost 105) I was scared to death. We were always able to get it to come back down, but still very little sleep for me, with the waking up every 30 minutes to make sure she wasn't getting hotter.
Anyway, we are back on schedule, started homeschooling a week late, and I have been having time to sew. Will have pictures of my latest projects soon.

When a mom or dad features a little one that's diagnosed as gaining knowledge of disabled, plenty of troubles should always be addressed. You have the emotional problems of the way to discuss this while using the youngster, worries regarding the child's knowing skill deficiencies, and what parents as well as their teachers can do to aid the kid.
Related to early learning center grafton ma, "When you hear someone say they are simply going to ""take a class"" or ""go to college"", you've a pretty extremely good plan that they are likely to review, acquire data, and complete assessments. But what does it incredibly suggest to master for a university student? Studying inside a school atmosphere includes conscious facts processing and engagement of your head. It demands special mental characteristics and the stop outcome of full engagement from the practice is personal and professional improvement."

Good morning with a promise of snow, snow. snow. It is 28 degrees, wind at 7 mph, and lots of white stuff in the forecast. I want to get out before it hits and get Biscuit to make a meatloaf for supper.
Yesterday I rode with Cindy as she did her usual stops that she does when she is off. I I just keep her company on these trips,
This afternoon just before the snow hit David took me to Kroger's and I pick up a few things for supper. We will have mashed potatoes with it for supper because I didn't check for regular potatoes when I made out the shopping list. The meatloaf just came out of the oven
A call came to say they have the part for my dishwasher and it will be fixed tomorrow. I may still be able to make some Dutch Apple Pie jam because I'll have sterile jars to work with.
My Spirit ( my African Gray) turned 22 years old today. I put a seed stick in her cage to celebrate.
I had a go round with the doctor's office and the pharmacy today I barely held my temper because when I asked for a refill the druggist said I had no refills. Cindy called the doctor's office for a refill to be called in. After she went to work the doctor's office called to say I had two refills left. I almost went right up. I told them what the drug store said and then I said I am not speaking in a foreign language but nobody is listening to me. So I want you to call the drug store, tell them what I need, then tell them to call me when it is ready. That was early this afternoon and I still haven't heard anything. It pisses me off When someone asks me how I fell my stomach is twisting because of things like this. ( I guess I may really need a shrink.) The drugstore did give me some to take until this is corrected.
Well the forecast said snow.
A while back Les and Anne gave me a plant for my bedroom. Well it gave it up.
Now if you can't find your glasses take a flashlight and check the floor near where you left them. The water glass on your vanity is dumped over. Yep it is Onyx. Papers you left on the table –check the floor they are there. Things knock over in the front room window–Onyx. He even hangs on the curtains, walk on the counters to see what you are trying to dish up, sneaks into your closet then doesn't come out when you go to find him. Yes a real pain in the butt but you got to love him.
Well my friend I best go to my room and read for a bit. I bought You Will Pay by Lisa Jackson so I'll see how it goes. Have a good evening, stay warm, and smile.

Excess mileage charges are calculated in pence per mile over the agreed mileage when you take on the lease agreement.
STOP worrying and START finding out how our mileage buffer will help you drive the car of your dreams, worry-free.
Our research shows that excess mileage charges are one of the biggest concerns customers face when it comes to deciding whether to lease a car or not. We make the decision easy for you, because now you can enjoy your brand-new car worry-free. Sound good?
Our unique mileage buffer protects customers from getting stung by excess mileage charges at the end of their lease. Think of the buffer as an airbag to absorb the impact and prevent you from paying extra!
We care about our customers, and we want to stop you spending any more than you have to. The buffer takes the worry out of leasing because you've got 1,000 extra miles on the clock, should you happen to need them.
Give me an example
Let's imagine that you go over your agreed mileage by 800 miles and receive an excess fee charged at 10 pence per mile, (this is the average excess mileage charge but will vary depending on your car model and funder).
The mileage buffer would save you around £80. You could buy a flight to Amsterdam with that money!
How do I claim?
If you go over the contracted mileage stated at the start of your car lease, the funder will charge you based on those excess miles and deduct the amount via direct debit from your account shortly after you hand the vehicle back. They calculate the charge based on the number of miles over your contracted mileage multiplied by the per-mile charge.
We have good news though...if you do go over your mileage and incur a charge, Motorama will reimburse you for up to 1,000 excess miles. Here's what you need to do.
It's that simple!
Please read our Terms and Conditions for more information.

Kaplan and Haenlein (2010) defined social media as having three components, namely, concept (art, information, or meme); media (physical, electronic, or verbal); and social interface (intimate direct, community engagement, social viral, electronic broadcast or syndication, or other physical media such as print). In this paper, we have attempted to develop conceptual frameworks to establish relationship between brand personality and; functional and need motivations as depicted from social media behavior. These frameworks can be used to predict brand attitude and brand equity. We have also tried to establish the link between brand personality and individual users' personality as measured through social media behavior. How individual and brand personality is linked with corporate brand value and brand attitude has been analysed too.
Park et al. (2011) studied who among health organizations used Facebook to promote health issues, what interactive features were being used, which social media channels were used in conjunction with Facebook, and how health organizations used Facebook's branding/advertising techniques to manage their self-presentation and social presence online. Non-profit health organizations do not take full advantage of interactive features or other social media channels. Government agencies and schools/universities exhibit the broadest use of interactive features; health care institutions appear more devoted to integrating social media channels with Facebook than the other types of organizations. The Methodist Hospital system was found to be using social media since 2009 to promote and counsel about their public health programs to customers all over the world.
Based on automobile-model data from several leading online consumer reviews that were collected from 2001 to 2008, Chen et al. (2011) established that there are significant differences between the early and mature stages of Internet usage in terms of number of postings and consumer ratings in the relationship of marketing variables, such as price, quality, sales and consumer online-posting behavior. In the early stage of consumer Internet usage, price is negatively correlated with the propensity to post a review. As consumer Internet usage becomes prevalent, however, the relationship between price and the number of online consumer reviews takes a U-shape. Correlation between price and overall rating becomes less significant in the later period.
Social media can potentially be used in health organization and insurance agencies for promoting and advertising. Xiang and Gretzel (2010) studied traveler's use of search engine for travel planning by using a set of pre-defined keywords in combination with nine U.S. tourist destination names and found that social media form substantial part of online tourism in terms of trip planning with the help of search engines.
Kaplan and Haenlien (2011) are of the view that marketing communication through social media can be made most effective through active engagement of the 'marketing havens' that have good knowledge of the market and are willing to proactively disseminate the same to other customers, 'social hubs' who have high social connections and sales persons.
Murdough (2009) defined a frame work of measuring social media: Concept, Design, Deployment and Optimization. Concept phase comprise defining of objectives, key performance indicators and performance benchmarks with the intention of developing customer relationship, learning from customers and assessing and mobilizing purchase intention. Next step is to understand the quality and quantity of information and sentiment generated in the discussion and whether it is converted into purchase decision outcome. A combination of 'enterprise resource tool', 'application programming interface', 'text mining tool' and 'site analytics tool' help in measuring the brand performance in social media
Customer Relationship: An association that exists between customers that allows you to share agreements and bill-to and ship-to addresses.
Brand Attitude: Opinion of consumers toward a product determined through market research
Motivation: The process used to allocate energy to maximize the satisfaction of needs.
Personality: The combination of characteristics or qualities that form an individual's distinctive character.
Brand Equity: The commercial value that derives from consumer perception of the brand name of a particular product or service, rather than from the product or service itself.
Brand Personality: An expression of the fundamental core values and characteristics of a brand, described and experienced as human personality traits, eg friendly, intelligent, innovative etc.

There are tiny little irrelevant markets everywhere like pot stocks and cryptocurrency.
These could disappear tomorrow and it won't matter in grand scheme of things.
The sovereign wealth funds, hedge funds, and other monster institutions that make markets move have to be making plays in the bond market.
They're too big not to be.
If you want an inside look at the money flow from one place to another, an "intermarket" approach really helps.
I've been a lonely stock market bull for most of this year.
It feels like every time I've told people that I think we're closer to the beginning of a bull market than the end, they think I'm crazy.
That reaction has gotten me even more bullish.
Not only does price continue to suggest we're heading much higher, but sentiment and positioning points toward the same.
I've made the argument that technology is going to take us much higher, as it is just now finally breaking out above the March 2000 highs.
It took 17 years to digest those 1990s gains. We're now just moving on.
All that market cap getting going is one obvious catalyst that I've been talking about since last year.
Another big one is the bond market.
If interest rates get going, selling in bonds is likely to continue. That money needs a home.
And stocks and commodities are likely it.
First, let's see what rates themselves are signaling before making plans on what to do.
Let's start with the U.S. 10-year yield.
This month marks the 37th anniversary of the high in rates in 1981, about five months before I was born.
I've known nothing but rising bond prices and falling interest rates:
What if those 2016 lows were it?
Was that whipsaw below the previous lows the catalyst to send rates higher towards 4%?
I think it absolutely can be. But the one thing we do know is that we have to get through 3% before getting to 4%.
If we're holding above 3% that means we're above the early 2014 highs and above this 37-year downtrend line.
A breakout could spark a straight shot to 4%, which is the 161.8% extension of the 2014 to 2016 decline and a logical target.
To continue with this intermarket theme, the cross-asset analysis, here's a closer look at the U.S. 10-year yield but with an important ratio overlaid: Regional Banks versus REITs.
When the market believes rates are going higher, money flows faster into regional bank stocks than into higher yielding Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs).
With higher rates, there's less of a need for fixed income investors to get their yield in the stock market.
If this breakdown since June reverses and gets back above the July highs (0.80) that would be a serious signal for higher rates:
We're seeing this play out in bond prices as well.
Let's look at the "stocks versus bonds" ratio breaking out to new all-time highs.
Momentum is in a bullish range and the trend is up:
Now let's look at the long-term chart of 30-year bond futures.
Trends are rarely this perfect for so long.
In the first chart of this letter, you could see the U.S. 10-year put in a failed breakdown, or whipsaw, in the summer of 2016.
That sparked a ripper and could be the catalyst to send it through 3% towards 4%.
The 30-year bonds put in a similar whipsaw, failing to break out above the upper end of this historic channel.
The U.S. 30-years are flirting with an epic breakdown and it's one we're certainly watching.
A big break is likely to come with rates heading towards 4% in 10-years.
Here's a short-term look at the U.S. Treasury Bonds ETF (NYSE: TLT). It looks to me like we're in the process of completing a multi-year top:
One of the things I like to do is flip charts upside down to get a view with less bias.
This is how I see bonds in an inverted chart. I'd be a buyer of that breakout:
Why would rates go up?
One reason would be to price in higher inflationary forces.
Follow The Money
Stocks have outperformed commodities for a while. They've been the place to be, and this chart shows that well:
We're getting close to achieving the next target in this ratio, which means that commodities could be at a turning point to where some outperformance is likely starting at some point in the coming months.
It does not necessarily mean that stocks will fall. Just that both stocks and commodities could rise together with commodities finally showing some relative strength for a while.
A rising rate environment where bond prices are falling and stocks and commodities are going up are conditions where I want to be buying stocks.
Now let's remember, this 161.8% extension plotted above in the stocks versus commodities ratio could come into play, or it could not.
The purpose of this exercise is to imagine what the world would look like in six months and what things would look like if we're right, and what they would look like if we're wrong.
The reason is so that when we see certain things developing, it either confirms our thesis or disproves it, and we'll know early either way.
The bottom line is that rates have to get through 3% before going to 4%. We're right there.
If we're above 3% we want to be shorting bonds. Whether that is through an ETF, options or futures, pick your poison.
We're also using this possibility for information purposes. I think higher rates is a positive for bank stocks and the market overall, at least for now.
After 4% to 5% in 10-years, historically things get a little shaky for stocks.
But let's be serious, we're nowhere near that. For now, I think higher rates are good for stocks.
Let's see how this plays out.
What do you think? Email me at email@example.com.
To wise investing,

Electronic Distance Learning
In online language courses, students receive their lectures and assignments via the internet, and turn in their work the same way. Professors can make use of multi-media lecture materials such as video and audio, and often students can communicate with their professors and each other using voice chat software. Audio discussions and presentations are vital components of online language learning, as students strive to attain conversational competence including spoken fluency and aural comprehension skills.
Electronic distance learning boasts the significant advantage of convenience. Students can learn and review much of the coursework at their own pace and whenever they have time available. Through class message boards and e-mail, professors and students can maintain ongoing discussions of the work without having to be present for real-time interactions. This is very beneficial for many aspiring language learners, who often have busy schedules full of work and family responsibilities, and would find it prohibitively time-consuming to attend a traditional classroom course.
Of course, the responsibility rests with the student to ensure that he or she has the technological capability to access the online materials and discussions. Older computers and feeble internet connections may make participation in today's multi-media classes frustrating or impossible, and even if the appropriate hardware and software are in place, the student must know how to use them.
Online education does not suit every student's learning style. Some people find that they do not learn as effectively without face-to-face contact and a set classroom schedule to keep them motivated and focused on the work. But for many self-motivated students, it is the perfect way to incorporate language learning into a busy lifestyle.

Just received Shout Select's recent Collector's Edition Blu-ray release of Streets Of Fire, a film I didn't think too much of when it was new; while I didn't hate it, I simply felt that it left a bit to be desired. With repeat viewings, however, the picture's since become one of my favorites of its era.
Perusing the back of the Blu-ray packaging, I noticed Shout, while listing the film's principal cast members, has resorted to pairing each actor's name with the most recent and/or well-known movie they've appeared in, i.e. (Diane Lane, Man Of Steel)…(Rick Moranis, Ghostbusters)…(Michael Paré, Bad Moon), etc.
Maybe I'm giving undue credit, but I'd like to think that if you're inclined to pick up a Collector's Edition of a major studio release from over 30 years ago, it's not because you're a first-time viewer. You're a fan.
In other words, you're already familiar with the movie. Being reminded on the packaging that Amy Madigan also appeared in The Dark Half is probably not going to factor into your decision to buy the Blu-ray. Just a guess.
Ten years from now, is Willem Dafoe going to be remembered primarily for his roles in Platoon, To Live And Die In L.A., The Boondock Saints, Shadow Of The Vampire, etc, or will he be remembered, as Shout Select reminds us, for his role in John Wick? I'd forgotten he was even in that movie. But it was a film that was recently popular, so who cares, right?
This kind of promotional gimmick for home video releases has always annoyed me. It's always felt condescending, as if we're supposed to swayed by, what's basically, "If you liked that really popular movie So-And-So was in, then you're gonna love this movie!".
Maybe some people are sold on movies that way, but this is lowest common denominator stuff. I guess I expect better from a boutique label, such as Shout Select, specializing in, for lack of a better word, 'cult' films.
The Shout Select packaging also declares Streets Of Fire director Walter Hill as a 'cult filmmaker'. This seems to me a polite way of either saying that he hasn't made a relevant feature film in decades, which I feel a case could be made for (*), or that even his best films have been forgotten or ignored by a majority of modern audiences (which is probably true, unfortunately).
(*) From 1975's Hard Times through 1992's Trespass, Walter Hill made (mostly) terrific Action-Thrillers (I've never seen Brewster's Millions or Crossroads). Hands down, Hill's one of the best genre directors of the Seventies and Eighties, responsible for a slew of well-made, visually compelling Action flicks that easily rank among the best I've ever seen: The Driver, The Warriors, The Long Riders, Southern Comfort, 48 HRS, Streets Of Fire, Extreme Prejudice, along with the aforementioned Hard Times and Trespass. 1989's Johnny Handsome was just average. Another 48 HRS was a sloppy mess. Everything he made after Trespass was fairly forgettable.

Last Wednesday 06/09/17 I gave a talk about Migrations from TFVC to Git in Microsoft Raanana as part of the ALM User Group.
In this talk we discussed the advantages and disadvantages of Git in comparison to TFVC (TFS Version Control), we reviewed the implications and points to take into account when migrating to Git, we analyzed the keys to a successful migration, we saw how to plan it, how to perform it and finally how to get used to Git once we have migrated. All of this from a theoretical point of view as well with a practical example using VSTS.
Many thanks to all for coming and I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. If you have any questions, you know how to contact me.
See you next time,

Our first thought was more recipes should be made into an easy video like this! Sure you can send me a list of ingredients and how to do it but a video provides so much value. No more getting confused by someones tell you to flambate something. Now you can see it be done!
We decided to find the best videos put out by Tasty that relate to the avocado. Here are our pics and we included the recipes for good measure.
For all the mini recipes videos head over to Tasty's website

For the Dip:
- 3 tbsp Soured Cream
- 1 tbsp Mayonnaise (optional)
- 1 tsp Lime Juice

2.) Prepare your bowls – stir the flour, paprika, salt and pepper into one bowl. Beat an egg into another bowl, finally put some desiccated coconut into a third bowl.
3.) Dip your coconut wedges into each bowl in order flour>egg>coconut.
4.) Cook the wedges on a baking tray in the centre of a pre-heated oven 180°C/350°F/Gas Mark 4 for 12-15 minutes, turning once or twice until some of the coconut has browned and crisped up a bit
To make the dip:

Corowa-Rutherglen signs Vermont midfielder Andrew Pretto
Corowa-Rutherglen's build towards moving up the ladder has received a significant boost, signing Vermont midfielder Andrew Pretto.
The 26-year-old has been a regular senior player with the Eastern league powerhouse over the past five years, although a hamstring injury stalled last season.
"He's an outside midfielder, he's super fit and played some really high quality football, so he'll be a really good player for us," Roos' coach Marc Almond said.
"He'll add some outside class, some real professionalism, he trains at a high level and will bring some experience to the group too."
He finished equal third in the Eagles' best and fairest in 2016.
Given his recent battles with injury, Pretto had been considering a change, but it was only a random call from former workmate and fellow Roos' signing Rohan Davies that swayed him.
"Playing country footy is always something I've wanted to have a go at because I'm a big fan of country community," Pretto said.
"I haven't had a whole lot of exposure integrating into a really tight-knit small community and a couple of my good mates go up to Corowa for holidays and they say it's a fantastic little town, they said you'll love it."
While the hamstring complaint derailed 2018, Pretto maintains he's at the peak of his powers physically and he'll need to be too as the Roos look to build on their three wins after two winless years.
"I'm obviously pretty aware of how they've gone the past few years, particularly 2016-17, but obviously seeing there's improvement this year," Pretto said.
"I think it's a good opportunity to be part of the improvement and development of that young team.
"I've been in a position where I've been led by some awesome and influential players and I'm looking at it as an opportunity to step up and be that for another group of people."
Pretto's first captain at Vermont was suburban league superstar Ryan Mullet, while he also played with former Hawthorn rookie Tom Schneider and ex-Port Adelaide's Brett Eddy.
Pretto's passion for the club's development is just what officials love to hear and there's quiet optimism, given at the corresponding time last year the Roos had 28 contracted players as compared to 45 now.
The Roos are also hoping to announce two more players shortly, while Wangaratta Magpies' thirds player Max Taylor and Albury under 18 ruckman Sam Severin trained at the club's first session on Monday night.

The NYPD rookie cop accused of manslaughter in the 2014 shooting of an unarmed man in an East New York public housing stairwell choked back tears during gripping testimony Monday as he told jurors in Supreme Court in Brooklyn that his gun fired by accident and he panicked afterward.
Officer Peter Liang said he had a flashlight in one hand and drew his gun with the other as he entered a dark stairwell at the Louis Pink Houses because he sensed possible danger, but did not put his finger on the trigger and pointed the gun down. When he stepped onto the eighth-floor landing, he said, he heard something.
"It was a quick sound. It startled me," Liang testified. "The gun just went off when I tensed up."
The shot ricocheted and fatally wounded Akai Gurley, 28, on a fifth-floor landing, but Liang said he heard nothing and didn't realize anyone was hurt. He stepped back into the hall, told his partner he would probably get fired for the unauthorized discharge, and discussed calling it in.
Only when he re-entered the stairwell to look for the bullet, Liang testified, did he hear someone crying below and find Gurley's girlfriend crouched over his body. He immediately knew it must have been his bullet, Liang said, reacting with "shock" and "disbelief" and thinking, "Oh my God, I've shot someone!"
At that point in his testimony, Liang turned his back to the courtroom and began sobbing. He was unable to continue, and the judge let him leave the courtroom to compose himself. He returned to the courtroom after 60 seconds, but had to turn away two other times to wipe at his face with a white tissue.
Liang, 28, is charged with manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide for the shooting, and official misconduct for failure to aid Gurley after he was shot. The case heightened tensions over police shootings in 2014, but the wounding of two officers last week during a stairwell patrol highlighted the dangers.
Prosecutors contend Liang was reckless in taking out his gun in the first place without a specific threat. He didn't explicitly admit pulling the trigger Monday and prosecutors did not press him on the point, but did get him to acknowledge a section of his training manual saying shootings rarely "just happen" by accident.
As much as the shooting, Liang has been criticized for failing to help Gurley's girlfriend try to keep him alive — the focus of the official misconduct charge. He testified that he received CPR training at the police academy, but he never worked on a mannequin and instructors gave recruits most of the answers on tests.
Gurley, Liang testified, looked like he wasn't going to make it — "His eyes were rolled back. He was just laying there very still." — and he felt that using his radio to get "professional medical help" was the best way he could aid Gurley.
He said he asked for the address of the building, but was overwhelmed, and eventually went down to the fourth Floor, where a neighbor was calling 911, to ask for the address and use his radio. "I was just panicking so much, I couldn't process it in my head," he said.
Liang appeared genuine and remorseful during his testimony, but during a brief news conference afterward Gurley's family and supporters said they were unimpressed. Gurley's mother Sylvia Palmer called the officer's testimony "horrible."
"Peter Liang walked away and left Akai to die in his own blood," she said. "Police Officer Peter Liang said that it was an accident, an accidental death. Peter Liang, my son's death was no accident. You murdered my son. I need justice for my son."
Liang has been on administrative duty at the NYPD since the shooting. The defense and prosecution both rested their cases after his testimony, and closing arguments are scheduled for Tuesday.

Domestic assault is treated as a misdemeanor, but it can have life-changing consequences. A conviction can negatively affect the rest of your life in very serious ways. You will no longer be allowed to carry a gun, which means the loss of your career if you are a law enforcement officer. It can also result in deportation if you are an immigrant to New York.
I am Wilson LaFaurie, a New York domestic violence defense lawyer who has experience handling criminal cases as both a former state prosecutor and a criminal defense attorney. Drawing upon the strategic legal knowledge and trial skills I gained as a prosecutor in Brooklyn's Felony Domestic Violence Court, I have been able to successfully represent numerous clients charged with a variety of crimes, including:
- Aggravated harassment
- Assault and attempted assault
- Menacing
- Violation of orders of protection
Protecting Your Rights and Your Future
The state of New York takes domestic abuse cases seriously. If police are called to your home and find evidence of abuse, somebody is going to jail that night, usually the man.
One of the first courts established to deal with family violence was the Felony Domestic Violence Court in Brooklyn in 1996. I was the prosecutor in that domestic violence court. Using my experience as a prosecutor, I have gone on to successfully defend more than 1,200 individuals who have been charged with offenses such as aggravated harassment, menacing, assault, violations of restraining orders and attempted assaults.
A domestic abuse conviction will result in a criminal record that will follow you for the rest of your life. That is why getting experienced representation from an attorney who knows how to protect your rights and your future is essential.
Restraining Orders/Orders of Protection in New York
In New York, orders of protection (also called restraining orders) are handled by the Integrated Domestic Violence (IDV) courts. The IDV can issue an order of protection against an individual even before he or she has been convicted of any crime. Violating one of these orders can result in jail time, even if the restraining order was issued in response to false allegations.
Because the IDV courts' requirements and procedures are quite complicated, relatively inexperienced attorneys can find this civil-criminal hybrid system very frustrating. That is why it is wise to choose a lawyer who is deeply familiar with the IDV courts and can effectively advocate on your behalf. I have this kind of experience, and I have a strong track record of success.
Have you been falsely accused of domestic violence? You should immediately talk to a criminal defense lawyer who can protect your rights and help clear your name.
