Cause Of Chronic Bronchitis: Cause Of Chronic Bronchitis
The study - led by Cardiff University in the UK - shows for the first time the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) plays a key part in causing the airway disease. Daniela Riccardi, principal investigator and a professor in Cardiff's School of Biosciences, describes their findings as "amazingly exciting," because for the first time they have linked airway inflammation - that may be triggered for example by cigarette smoke and car fumes - with airway twitchiness. She adds: "Our paper shows how these triggers release substances that activate CaSR in airway tissue and drive asthma symptoms like airway twitchiness, inflammation, and narrowing.
Prof. Riccardi concludes: The researchers believe their findings about the role of CaSR in airway tissue could have significant consequences for other respiratory ailments such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), chronic bronchitis. The researchers, from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, consider their findings will lead to treatments for a variety of diseases including asthma, COPD, cystic fibrosis and even certain cancers.
Chronic Bronchitis
Chronic bronchitis is a common respiratory disorder in the USA. The most common reason for chronic bronchitis is smoking, and the threat of chronic bronchitis increases with the longer you smoke. Healthful lifestyle practices, including hand washing to prevent illness, drinking lots of fluids, following a well balanced diet, getting plenty of rest, and refraining from smoking, improve your symptoms and can reduce your risk of chronic bronchitis. Seek prompt medical care if you are being treated for chronic bronchitis but light symptoms recur or are persistent.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Tobacco smoking is the most common reason for COPD, with a number of other variables including air pollution and genetics playing a smaller role. The most common symptoms of COPD are shortness of breath, sputum production, and a productive cough. COPD is more common than any other lung disease as a cause of cor pulmonale. Badly ventilated cooking fires fueled by coal or biomass fuels like wood and animal dung, lead in developing countries and are one of the most common reasons for COPD to indoor air pollution.
Chronic Bronchitis Symptoms, Treatment and Contagious
Bronchitis is considered chronic when a cough with mucus continues for at least two years in a row, and at least three months, for most days of the month. Bronchitis occurs when the trachea (windpipe) and the big and small bronchi (airways) within the lungs become inflamed due to illness or annoyance from other causes. Chronic bronchitis and emphysema are types of a condition characterized by progressive lung disease termed chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Chronic Dry Cough Causes Coughing is one of the natural reflexes of the body against the entry of foreign substances. Occasionally, it is normal and actually beneficial, as it helps in getting rid of any foreign body or something unwanted in the body. However, if cough...
- Bronchitis is an inflammation of the bronchial tubes, the airways that carry air to your lungs.
- What are the symptoms of chronic bronchitis?
- Inflamed bronchi create lots of mucus, causing the cough and difficulty getting air in and from the lungs.
- Treatment will help your symptoms, but chronic bronchitis is a long term condition that never goes away.

Bronchitis Causes
Acute bronchitis is usually due to viruses, generally the exact same viruses that cause colds and flu (influenza). Antibiotics do not kill viruses, so this sort of medicine isn't useless in most cases of bronchitis. The most common reason for chronic bronchitis is smoking cigarettes.
What are the Symptoms of Chronic Bronchitis?
Cough is really a defense mechanism developed by the body in an effort to clear the airways of mucus or other kinds of like cigarette smoke and air pollution irritate the airways resulting in inflammation and an overproduction of mucus. Shortness of breath is often worsened by activity or exercise. Insufficient oxygen causes dyspnea in the bloodstream and is among the most common symptoms of chronic bronchitis. In chronic bronchitis, the bronchi (airways) become damaged and thickened, which alters the protective activity of the bacteria-fighting cells within the lungs.
The combination of increased mucus and damage to the bronchi makes a patient with chronic bronchitis more susceptible to lung infections. Wheezing is a high pitched whistling sound made during breathing and is brought on by a narrowing, or blockage, of the airways. Swelling (particularly of the lower extremities) and weight gain may accompany chronic bronchitis and frequently happen due to side effects of certain medicines used to treat the have questions about chronic bronchitis symptoms?

US president Donald Trump has been spitting the dummy. Most of the toys are now out of the cot.
Other people have been picking up those toys. Prepare for massive change in the international order.
This article is about fundamental changes which are likely to occur – I say likely, but there will be plenty of scrambling to prevent it – and how things might pan out.
One factor in the changes is a simple process of counting quotas, with worldwide implications.
Another factor is Mr Trump & his desire to open acrimonious fights. The latest revelation on that front was about a border patrol agent who died in December. Mr Trump used the event to promote his wall fronting Mexico, saying the agent had been "lost" [as in died] and his partner "badly beaten", although the partner had radioed in that he thought he'd hit a culvert and investigators found no evidence of any other cause. Texas governor Greg Abbott offered a reward "to solve this murder". By the time the story reached the Fox News airwaves, illegal immigrants had bashed the first agent to death with rocks.
You might consider that incident a minor side issue in the international scheme of things, except that it's a standard ploy and it colours expectations of Mr Trump's behaviour in other forums.
On top of some other factors already in play – currency, the sharemarket rollercoaster (particularly US, but internationally), some trade conflicts and some trade aspirations – I've followed through on some wider trade questions, examined how the international applecart might be completely overturned, and provided you with some sections of text where you can use your own judgment on what people & institutions are saying.
Those pieces of text are:
- a repeat of the opening to my newsletter last Wednesday
- part of an article by Russian president Vladimir Putin, and
- segments of the BRICS summit declaration last September.
If you're like me, most of your sources for international matters will be American. Your choice then is to go left (or our right, depending on your view of how people lean in the US), right (or further right, if like me you think there's not much that's truly on the left), or, if you have a lot of time, hunt for something in the middle, neutral, balanced, can be substantiated.
BRICS & the IMF
We have this constant focus on the US because of the oh-so-frequent outbursts from its oh-so-remarkable president, but the game is getting serious.
One occasion, which will tell how serious, occurs on Friday-Sunday 20-22 April, when the International Monetary Fund (IMF) & World Bank Group hold their joint annual spring meetings in Washington.
Since the IMF was founded in 1945, the US has held a power of veto (over 15% of the vote). After the latest adjustment of quotas, the 5 BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China & South Africa), combined, will also have veto potential.
I've been following the writings (sometimes rants) of Jim Rickards (lawyer, economist, financial writer, editor of Strategic Intelligence) via the Daily Reckoning website (and also the separate website of Daily Reckoning founder Bill Bonner), and last year Mr Rickards was convinced the change in power at the IMF would result in its special drawing rights usurping much of the $US's role in international exchange.
It didn't happen, but that may be just a matter of timing for processes to be completed. Or, if the 5 aren't yet ready, they may hold off for another 6 months or a year.
However, Mr Rickards is at it again, this time pointing to that April meeting of the IMF where, he says, the BRICS nations' combined voting strength will rise from 14.2% to 16.21%, while the US vote will fall from 16.54% to 16.44% – still veto power for the US, but with fewer mates in support of its case.
Privileges & power written in for US
Among the privileges the US has had for decades, its greenback has held primacy as the international reserve currency. Primarily through the BRICS relationship, Russia & China began using their own currencies for trade between them last year, and both Russian president Vladimir Putin & the BRICS summit declaration point to more of that, plus changes along the lines of this statement from the summit declaration: "We resolve to foster a global economic governance architecture that is more effective & reflective of current global economic landscape, increasing the voice & representation of emerging markets & developing economies."
Under the old order, that would have been squashed in a backroom, although official statements wouldn't have put it quite that way.
China has also signed currency swap agreements with over 20 other countries, setting the greenback's role aside in each case. To demonstrate how this matters, Mr Rickards pointed to the US love affair with cars – and the price of fuel, which has long been far lower than anywhere else in the developed world: "Why do we pay less? Because oil is priced & purchased in our dollars."
Here's the exercise in today's money: US gallon = 3.785411784 litres, $US1 = $NZ1.38, average US petrol price currently $US3.12/gallon of premium 91-octane unleaded according to the American Automobile Association, = $NZ1.14c/litre. Auckland price currently? Around $2/litre.
Pointing the finger – but the backing is shrinking
President Trump has accused China, in particular, of currency manipulation & theft of intellectual property and has pressed for sanctions against Chinese suppliers of washing machines & solar modules, and Canada on lumber & dairy products. US airline maker Boeing tried too, but failed in a bid to have heavy tariffs imposed on Canadian planemaker Bombardier.
Broadly, in addition, any sign that a foreign company has an element of government ownership will mean it can be targeted for "unfair" competition.
Trump wants one-on-one, others work on multi-partnerships
Mr Trump rejected the Trans Pacific Partnership, which still favoured US corporates after much negotiation, and wants changes to the North American free trade agreement with Canada & Mexico.
Meanwhile, other countries are moving into multi-partner relationships – both for constructive trade reasons and, particularly now, as protection against a wild card.
Now, you have a revised TPP being finalised without US involvement, the BRICS nations are gradually starting to get a multitude of joint activities underway, and China is working on closer relations across Central Asia, into Europe and into Africa through its reinvented Silk Road, the "one belt one road" of land & sea routes.
The international reserve currency question is a big one. The move away from the greenback has already begun, and could accelerate quickly if the IMF goes the BRICS nations' way. The US administration could find itself a rock on the road, being driven into the ground by every other nation.
US trade & infrastructure parked on a tightrope
While Mr Trump has talked jobs for struggling areas of the US and promoted exports, the official unemployment rate has been falling (with a couple of blips) for 2 years and has been at 4.1% for 4 months, and average hourly earnings have crept up 2.9% in the last year. He wants a low exchange rate to be internationally competitive, and low interest rates to keep the cost of federal debt down, but can expect inflation if the economy continues to improve (net of stimulation-targeting debt injections).
To get his massive infrastructure programme underway, Mr Trump wants local contributions of about 80%, federal no more than 20%. Previously, infrastructure programmes have been directed through the federal coffers, and neither states nor cities will have the funds to meet this changed requirement.
Swat: Deal "non-existent"
As an example of how the whole idea of continuity, forward planning for project funding and acceptance outside the presidential palace of how everything's supposed to work, CNN Money ran a story at the end of January on how all that smart thinking can be upended: "Deep underneath the Hudson River between Manhattan & New Jersey lies a century-old rail tunnel, heavily damaged during Superstorm Sandy, that still carries 200,000 riders/day.
"Engineers say the tunnel should be replaced as soon as possible, at a cost of $US12.7 billion. In 2015, the Obama administration agreed to supply half the funding for it, and designs are nearly complete. But in December, President Trump's Federal Transit Administration sent a letter to the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey declaring the deal 'nonexistent'."
Mr Trump has been intent on unwinding every measure his predecessor, Barack Obama, put in place, but CNN said this rail tunnel project had implications for travel through both Democrat- & Republican-voting districts.
Congress set up a commission in 2010 with Amtrak & mid-Atlantic governments as partners, which put a $US38 billion price tag on repairing the north-east corridor line. The House of Representatives approved a $US500 million "down payment" last year to start the repairs, but CNN said the Senate approved only $US26 million, no agreement has been finalised, and added this most important factor in the politics of US public money: "The North-east Corridor is now at a political disadvantage in Washington because it connects Democratic cities with limited influence."
The North-east Corridor Commission has estimated shutting the service down – not by choice but for danger or damage – would cost the US economy $US100 billion/day.
The original letter from New York state budget office director Robert Mujica was cursory, mentioning progress being made but saying nothing about agreement reached by 2 states on their proposed shares of the cost. On New Year's Eve, Mr Mujica wrote a longer explanation, but it seemed he was responding to a "don't want to" federal letter.
Under the terms so far revealed of the Trump infrastructure plans, the 7 years of planning for this major work will have been wasted, but other states might also not be able to take up the offer if they can't source enough funds locally.
With US public debt escalating beyond $US20 trillion, the local & state governance structures militating against early starts, the potential for an early collapse in soaring sharemarket prices, and big changes in international economic structures, the Trump infrastructure programme looks in danger.
Buy American law: blatantly protectionist
While I was looking for the original correspondence to balance the portrayal by CNN (which didn't mention the numerous questions raised by the federal transport official, deputy administrator Jane Williams), I spotted a piece of New York state legislation passed on 15 December, the New York Buy American Act, requiring state entities to include a contract provision requiring the use of US-made structural iron & structural steel for all surface road & bridge projects.
One of the most contentious clauses in the Trans Pacific Partnership documents when the US was still involved in writing it – the investor-state dispute settlement provision – was designed to combat this kind of lopsided trade law.
The New York law is blatantly protectionist legislation – just one of the 6 state senate & assembly leaders quoted in Governor Cuomo's release thought product quality was an important ingredient worth mentioning.
Making sense of a complicated picture
That, I think, sets a picture more fully than the newsletter lines I wrote last week (repeated below). In short:
- Lines of finance could change, though that might take longer than some of the other potential & likely changes
- Trade directions could be radically altered, by positive additions such as the central Asian growth, and by negatives such as the influence of internal US bickering
- The cost of money, or the currency of trade, or both could change
- US leaders' behaviour may reinforce other nations' determination to take their trade elsewhere, and
- US infrastructure-related businesses, unable to function properly at home, may look (at least short-term) for work elsewhere.

New YouTube videos highlight the safety of plastic water bottles, advantages of plastic versus glass bottles and importance of recycling
Greenwich, Conn. (PRWEB) October 15, 2009 – Nestlé Waters North America has added three new educational videos to its "Things to Know" series. Available on YouTube, the videos provide information on the safety of plastic as a packaging material, the differences between plastic and glass water bottles and the importance of recycling programs – regardless of the type of water or other beverage being consumed.
Are Plastic Bottles Safe?
The first of the three videos provides information on plastic safety and answers questions about bisphenol-A, commonly known as BPA. The video includes insight from a research biologist from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on BPA in regard to consumer health and safety.
Would Glass Be Better Than Plastic Bottles for Bottled Water?
This video highlights a recent EPA-sponsored study that examined different types of packaging to provide insight on the advantages of plastic over glass from environmental and practical perspectives. Viewers also learn about Nestlé Waters' commitment to reducing its environmental impact through innovations such as the recent launch of re-source™, a brand of natural spring water with bottles made with 25 percent recycled plastic.
What about Water Bottles in the Trash and Recycling?
This video addresses the amount of water bottles that end up in the U.S. waste stream, even though plastic bottles are 100-percent recyclable. Also highlighted are the challenges people face in finding accessible and quality recycling programs in the United States – 40 percent of Americans currently do not have access to curbside recycling. The video concludes with information on how Nestlé Waters is working to promote recycling within communities and the industry.
About Nestlé Waters North America
Central to the leadership of Nestlé Waters North America Inc. is its 33-year history and single-focus on producing bottled water products. The company's dedication to product quality, manufacturing expertise, employee development and environmental stewardship, especially in the areas of water use, energy and packaging, has helped Nestlé Waters become the number one bottled water company in the U.S. To reach success, the company follows its credo: Respect for each other, respect for the environment, and respect for the community.

LUPC has undertaken its first audit of a factory involved in manufacturing nitrile gloves purchased by Members, both in the UK university sector and beyond.
The audit took place on Monday 1st October at a factory contracted by Shield Scientific in Port Klang Malaysia. LUPC's Senior Contracts Manager, Darran Whatley, category manager for Laboratories purchasing, shadowed the Asia Inspection audit company on site, to review and risk assess factory working conditions for labour violations or human rights abuses. The standard employed was SMETA version 6.0 pillar 2 .
LUPC conducted the audit with full access and support from factory management, gloves manufacturer SHIELD Scientific and gloves suppliers to the UK market, including Appleton Woods and Scientific Laboratory Suppliers on the consortia framework. All partners see the importance of understanding and auditing conditions of workers involved in the manufacture of gloves destined for the UK public sector's research and healthcare supply chains.
LUPC will be working collaboratively to review the final auditor's report, and implement any necessary actions.
The social factory audit is the first to be conducted by LUPC and its partners; following publication of the final report, LUPC will share findings and best practice learnt with Members, with the aim of applying this to other commodities in the future.
LUPC's Darran Whatley said: "It was vitally important to experience this activity, to see a snapshot of time in the life of a production worker and their environment. It is also an essential due diligence activity."
LUPC's Acting Director Don Bowman said: "For several years, LUPC has committed to purchasing goods and services at best value for Members, without causing harm to others. Our recent factory audit takes this one step further; as a public service consortium we think it's vital to dig deeper into the perceived risk, inherent in so many of our supply chains, and to work with our suppliers to identify, assess and respond to any labour abuses or human rights violations we find."
Further information and best practice will be shared with Members in December 2018. For further information contact Darran Whatley, t: 020 7307 2764.

The hops are coming out a little early this year. Chris and Colby are headed up to harvest today and picking tomorrow. That means they could use a little assistance. They will be in the brewery on Wednesday the 15th from 730 am 'till as long as it takes to pick the luscious hops for Radius.
If you have a few moments to spare, please head over to Desert Edge and lend a hand. The beer will be flowing and there will be conversation a plenty. Come for 15 minutes or 10 hours, no able bodied picker will be turned away. The more hops picked the more Radius for us!
Radius, is made with ingredients grown within 100 miles of the Brewery. The malt is grown just across the state line in Idaho and the hops grow wild about a mile from the brewery.
Radius is a golden ale, filtered with an extreme fresh hop flavor and medium bitterness. Last year it was only around for only a few weeks. Once it's tapped, It's practically gone.

Maintaining our social license to operate requires us to be a leader in sustainable mining practices. To achieve this, it is essential we apply the same rigor to our environmental systems and performance as we do to safety, quality and profitability. Most importantly, we do not compromise our safety or our environmental practices for the sake of production. Ethical, safe and environmentally responsible behaviors are the backbone of our business.
We have implemented and continually improve our Environmental Management System (EMS) which is registered to the international environmental management system standard (ISO 14001:2015 Certificates of Registration for all our operations can be downloaded in PDF format) as the management tool to facilitate environmental performance and drive continual improvement.
Our operations have reduced direct and indirect emissions by using cleaner fuels, implementing energy efficiency measures, and through the development of innovative process technology to reduce direct and indirect emissions. We have negotiated energy supply contracts that resulted in lower power costs and the replacement of two coal-fired power plants with a portfolio of cleaner, more efficient sources as well as renewables. This shift in electricity generation substantially reduces air emissions that contribute to regional haze (SO2 and NOx) and greenhouse gas emissions.
Our combined direct Scope 1 and indirect Scope 2 GHG emissions, on a GHG-intensity basis for the Mining and Pelletizing segment, have been reduced by 16% compared to 2005 emissions with an objective to further reduce the GHG intensity by 36% in 2020 compared to 2005 emissions. By 2020 we expect to meet the U.S. 2015 Paris Agreement pledge of 26 to 28% GHG emissions reduction from 2005 baseline levels five years ahead of the 2025 target for both its Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. On a mass basis, we have reduced our Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG mass emissions at our Mining and Pelletizing segment from 2005 levels by 30% through 2018 and expect to further reduce these emissions from the 2005 levels by 46% through 2020.
We have made and will continue to make investments to reduce the environmental footprint of our operations and to develop products that reduce downstream emissions to enable our customers to produce low-emitting steel. A progress report is provided below for some of our key tangible sustainability goals.
Sustainability Goals
Progress Towards Sustainability Objectives and Targets
Link to Additional Content
Significantly reduce SO2 and NOx air emissions from our operations
Our emissions of regional haze pollutants (SO2 & NOx) have been reduced by 28% compared to 2005 with an objective to reduce those emissions by more than 50% by 2022 compared to 2005. (1)
Significantly reduce SO2 and NOx air emissions from electricity providers (Indirect, Scope 2 emissions)
For the power we purchase, our electricity suppliers have reduced SO2 & NOx emissions by 76% since 2005. By 2021 the emission reduction is expected to reach 96%.(1)
Significantly reduce greenhouse gas emission from our operations (Direct, Scope 1 emissions)
Our direct Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions on a GHG intensity basis from our Mining and Pelletizing Segment have been reduced by 17% compared to 2005 emissions with an objective to reduce GHG intensity by 35% by 2020 from 2005 emissions. We have reduced our Scope 1 GHG mass emissions from 2005 levels by 31% in 2018 and expect to reduce by 46% by 2020. (1)
Significantly reduce greenhouse gas emission from electricity providers (Indirect, Scope 2 emissions)
Our indirect Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions on a GHG intensity basis from our Mining and Pelletizing Segment have been reduced by 14% compared to 2005 emissions with an objective to reduce GHG Scope 2 intensity by 36% in 2020 from 2005 emissions. We have reduced our Scope 2 GHG mass emissions from 2005 levels by 28 % in 2018 with an objective to reduce GHG Scope 2 mass emissions by 57% by 2022. (1)
Procuring a cleaner energy supply
Our electrical suppliers are planning to increase generation of renewable energy to 40-45% by 2025 which is expected to reduce our Scope 2 related carbon emissions by 40% by 2030.
Energy Conservation
Since 2016, two of our facilities have implemented numerous energy efficiency projects that have resulted in 67,000,000 kWh savings (enough for 2,100 houses over three years).
Develop products that reduce downstream emissions to enable our customers to produce lower emitting steel
$100 Million invested in DR-grade pellet production capability at Northshore to produce HBI at the $830 Million IronUnits facility under construction in Toledo, OH that will enable our steelmaking customers to reduce Scope 3 GHG emissions by approximately 50% compared to conventional blast furnace route.
$75 Million invested at United Taconite to produce super flux "Mustang" pellets which improve energy efficiency and reduce Scope 3 GHG emissions for our steelmaking customers. On a lifecycle basis, if United Taconite's full standard pellet production capability were converted to flux pellets, its indirect Scope 3 downstream net GHG emissions would decrease by approximately 370,000 CO2e tons per year.
Reduce environmental related incidents
Since 2011 we have reduced environmental incidents by 98% with a goal of zero incidents.
Restore and reclaim disturbed land
Cliffs takes a progressive approach to mine land reclamation – establishing a foothold for diverse vegetative communities or other productive use – by actively incorporating it into current mining practices.
Efficient and optimal use of water
Reusing wastewater is an important component of our sustainable water management practices. On average, we recycle approximately 96% of all water used in our processing facilities.
Footnote: 1. Excluding mobile equipment and transportation related aspects
These efforts demonstrate our commitment to environmental stewardship and our ability to meet customer, investor and stakeholder demands while enabling the production of lower emitting/cleaner steel. Our environmentally superior iron ore pellets enable production of cleaner steel in North America. We deliver high quality, custom-made pellets that allow our customers to remain competitive in both quality and efficiency while reducing downstream indirect emissions from our customers (Scope 3 emissions). We are poised to capitalize on structural shifts in the iron and steel industry which are increasing use of cleaner, higher-grade iron products:

Astros vs. Indians ALDS matchups: Shortstop
Before the Astros-Indians American League Division Series begins Friday at Minute Maid Park, Houston Chronicle baseball editor Steve Schaeffer will break down the positional matchups between the teams.
To say the least, Carlos Correa's injury-riddled season, which includes career worsts of .239/.323/.405 and 15 home runs, has been much more disappointing than his injury-riddled 2017, when his .315/.391/.550 and 24 homers were all career highs.
Francisco Lindor, who like Correa entered the majors in 2015, has pulled ahead when it comes to meriting recognition as the American League's best shortstop and might finish among the top five in MVP voting.
In addition to slashing .277/.352/.519, Lindor co-led the majors with 129 runs, hit 38 homers, totaled 92 RBIs from the leadoff spot, and stole 25 bases.

New companies are hungry for customers. They're hungry for equipment. They're hungry for services that will make their business run efficiently. Most importantly, they're hungry for the days where all of their infrastructure decisions have been made and they can start executing their ideas and growing a robust customer base.
Acquiring the necessary resources from the get-go is at the top of the "make sure we don't mess this up" list of every founder, whether it's a lawyer starting her own firm or a freshly minted MBA with more funding than he probably needs and enough engineers to re-invent the internet. The ultimate goal of an early stage decision is to only make it once.
The resources accumulated in the formative days and months can either set the stage for rapid growth and success or a slow trickle of innovation and traction. The difficulty in changing one's software stack (huge!) or ISP (not as huge, but potentially more infuriating) may be prohibitively daunting causing businesses to be run in a way that merely keeps its head above water to avoid re-tooling what has already been (improperly) tooled.
Company Creation is Steady
A report by the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation estimated the number of new entrepreneurs in the United States to be increasing by 500,000 per month in 2014 and has held at a steady average 0.3% of the population over the past 20 years.
More often than not, a new company won't know all of their options for connecting employees in different parts of the world or how to protect their online assets from all of the potential security risks out there. A business and technology service provider needs to act quickly on emerging companies to be the one to provide them with the solid foundation on which to build their new profitable enterprise. As the old proverb goes, the early bird gets the worm, and in this case keeping a constant and thorough pulse on nascent companies as they search for technology solutions is the only way to make sure you are there when the time is right.

Jean Waller Brune, Head of Roland Park Country School, President of the Roland Park Country School Chapter of Cum Laude and District IV Cum Laude Regent is pleased to announce that seventeen students in the Senior and Junior classes were inducted into the School's Cum Laude Chapter on April 18, 2016 marking the 52nd Anniversary of Cum Laude at RPCS. Delivering the Margareta A. Faissler Lecture at the induction was Cum Laude member and alumna Margaret VanDeusen, 2010.
Dr. Abram W. Harris, Director of the Tome School in Port Deposit, Maryland, founded the Cum Laude Society in 1906 to honor scholarship in secondary schools. It was originally founded as Alpha Delta Tau: Alpha representing Arete/Excellence; Delta representing Dike/Justice and Taurepresenting Time/Honor. In 1916, the name was changed to Cum Laude (with honor/praise) and incorporated under the laws of the state of Maryland. Since Dr. Harris and his associates believed that chapters should be established only in schools of superior academic quality, the group moved slowly in granting new chapters. In 1963, Roland Park Country School became the first girls' school in Maryland to establish a chapter of the Cum LaudeSociety.
The Motto of the Society stresses excellence, justice and honor in the broadest sense and students who are elected have demonstrated good character, honor and integrity in all aspects of their school life. In addition to students' academic achievement other factors for membership include: rigorous academic progress, intellectual curiosity, love of learning and the desire to seek academic challenge.
Head of School Jean Waller Brune awarded certificates to the students with the following Cum Laude Charge:
The distinguished record you have made at RPCS has won for you membership in the Cum Laude Society. This Society is a fellowship of scholars whose purpose is to recognize excellence in academic work. As you pursue your
education, it is our hope that you will accept the honor of membership in this
Society as a responsibility to make some contribution to the ongoing search
for greater understanding of humans and society.
The following seniors were inducted:

The Google Play Store and Apple's App Store are jam-packed with great mobile games today. Smartphone gamers are increasingly having their thumbs kept busy with games that are genuinely beginning to rival console games for playability and value for money.
However, a large chunk of mobile game releases aren't worth your time and money – particularly given that more than 600 app games are submitted to the App Store every day – but this article is designed to make you aware of the leading smartphone game trends available on Android and iPhone devices that offer the best in terms of storyline, graphics quality and overall entertainment.
Nintendo-Published Games
With ambitions to release up to three mobile games a year, Japanese games console giants Nintendo are getting in on the act now too. Following the universal success of Pokemon GO, Nintendo has unveiled a string of other popular mobile titles, notably Super Mario Run, which hit iOS and Android screens in December 2016 and March 2017 respectively. Utilising the New Super Mario Bros. artwork style, its minimalist gameplay captures the essence of the old-school retro titles that are increasingly popular among gamers.
Nintendo is reportedly also planning the release of an app game based on the Legend of Zelda franchise, which would certainly be more difficult to pull off given the complex nature of the Zelda series – but would also speak to the thousands of fans across the globe.
Mobile Slots Action
Slot machines are still the most popular casino game on the planet and they're also among the most accessible casino app games on our smartphones. The top mobile online slots sites 2017 list contains gameplay reviews of all the leading slots games available to Canadian gamers, with Canadian-themed games and exclusive bonus structures aimed at Canadian users.
For thrill-seekers and those seeking a casino game that's easy to pick and play from minute one – requiring little in the way of strategy – mobile slots tick all the right boxes. Many of the leading iGaming brands are developing mobile slot games powered by the same functionality as major online casino websites, guaranteeing a fun touchscreen gaming experience with engaging visuals and sounds.
For instance, check out this Thunderstruck 2 online slot review, which is developed by Microgaming and is the sequel to the original Thunderstruck slot game released in 2010. Regarded as more of a "classic" slot game than many of the other video slot games, Thunderstruck 2 still has a formidable following due to its timeless gameplay.
Tactical Strategy Games
There's no two ways about it, mobile strategy games are also ruling the roost across all smartphone devices. Not only do they challenge the mind, it adds a layer of competitiveness that games enjoy; being able to outwit other players online and combat conundrums with great satisfaction. In fact, you could say that strategy games are among the oldest type of game in the history of the human race.
For sci-fi geeks, look no further than Star Hammer: The Vanguard Prophecy out on iOS. This turn-based epic puts players in command of their own human fleet battling an alien invasion, requiring meticulous planning of fleet attacks to suppress the enemy. Meanwhile, those who spent their misspent youth building empires and civilisations on desktop PC strategy games will also adore Civilization Revolution 2 out on both Android and iOS. With the option of recreating historical points in ages gone by or engaging in longer campaign modes, it's a highly successful mobile strategy game.
The latest Global Market Games Report indicates that some 2.2bn mobile gamers will be active in 2017, generating revenue approaching $109bn. It's an exciting time for mobile app developers and gamers alike.

Formulators are constantly researching where ingredients fall on the exercise timeline. Nutrient timing impacts how brands market their products, and the industry must adapt to ever-changing intake recommendations on various ingredients.
The major timing categories haven't shifted. They are:
- Pre-exercise
- Intra-exercise
- Post-exercise
Although certain ingredients fall into one category, there are the diamonds in the rough—ingredients that fall into more than one category. Considering the latest research and expert opinions provides sports nutrition businesses a roadmap allowing them to navigate a shifting industry.
Protein remains a powerhouse in the sports nutrition world. Various forms of protein act at different speeds, and whey stands alone as the fastest. A byproduct of dairy, whey protein contains high levels of leucine, which plays a key part in muscle growth and repair.
"In general, whey is a faster absorbing protein compared to, well, every other type of protein (casein, rice, hemp, soy, etc.)," stated Doug Kalman, R.D., a nutrition researcher and co-founder of International Society of Sports Nutrition (ISSN). "How whey is obtained may make an impact on its respective physiological effects, however, all wheys are absorbed at relatively the same rate."
Casein protein, much like whey, is also a byproduct of dairy. Unlike whey protein, casein is a much slower releasing protein. Numerous studies have examined the mechanisms behind casein's slow nature and where it fits in the nutrient timeline.
One such study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States found that patients had the most beneficial amino acid distribution from casein protein during the period after dinner and before sleep called postprandial.3
Creatine is an amino acid found naturally in both the body's muscles and the brain, where it directly impacts cellular energy production. Creatine is a bit of a mystery in the sports nutrition industry because there hasn't been a great deal of research conducted to find out where it fits in the sports nutrition timeline. Existing research on the topic has found only slight differences between taking creatine before versus after exercise.
As the most widely consumed psychoactive drug in the world, caffeine has an impressive amount of research behind its application in sports nutrition. This stimulant can enhance performance in trained athletes when consumed in low-to-moderate dosages, and help sustain maximal endurance exercise.
For sports nutrition formulators, it can be easy to go either lower or higher than the dosage used in studies, thus throwing off the timing effectiveness. Nutrient timing relies heavily on the dosage amount, so consumer education and product transparency will go a long way.

Park – arboretum
It occupies the area of 158,05 hectares. It was designed in the second half of 19thn century in an English style. The direct mainspring of its establishment were contemporary Gołuchów's owner IzabellaDziałyńska nee Czartoryska and her husband Jan Działyński. According to the idea of creating a park similar to the best European gardens, they employed a talented gardener Adam Kubaszewski. The park was created in many stages and the final effect was seen at the end of 19th century when it occupied the area of 150 hectares.
The English style of the park, preferred by Działyńskis Family, related to natural landscapes, totally different from baroque gardens which basis related to geometrical shapes. Up to today we can watch the naturalistic form of the park which was carefully worked out by the owners. It is a picturesque landscape for the monuments which are located in the south part of the park. Ciemna River is the part of the park. It was called Trzemna in the past, and its valley was the main composition factor. Along its 3 km long line on the left and on the right site there are charming views with the collection of trees and bushes, meadows and glades. Viewers are delighted with trees complex as well as with the single specimen which thanks to the proper exposition, presents their unique beauty.
North part of the park which has rather forest character is separated from the South part called arboretum with two view ponds. There are small islands on the bigger one where water fowl are building its nests. There are 80 thousands trees in the park among them there are 600 species and strains of trees and bushed which come from Europe, Asia, and North America. Among them there are also 262 trees examples which have monumental sizes. Wild plants are represents by common plants as well as those unique in the region and country scale. Several of them (among them Arum maculatum, European columbine, Primulaveris, European wildginger)are under law protection. There are over 300 species of mushrooms in the park, 27 species of brio statin and 131 taxon of lichen. Taking fauna into consideration there are 8 species of amphibians, 3 species of reptiles, 27 species of mammals and 70 species of birds.
The park is written in the monument register and since 1989 it is embraced with the Natural Protection Act. It is also the part of the Protected Landscape of Trzemna River Valley. Forestry Culture Center leads numerous work in the park – arboretum which aim is to restore the primal composition setup and reconstruction of species store. Its conservation and protection base on the historical notes and documents as well as on the modern revalorization projects.
Park – arboretum in a harmonic way join didactic and recreational functions and support the natural and aesthetic natural values. It is a place where various educational form and researches are led.

It is almost entirely printed through additive manufacturing, the only parts that aren't are the electrical components that power this fully functional automobile. Amazingly, even the airless tires are 3D-printed. The futuristic design looks more like something Batman would drive, and one of the most noticeable design features is the big empty space where a motorcycle's engine usually goes. Instead, there is an electric motor hidden in the rear wheel, and the batteries are embedded into the minimalist bodywork. Only 15 different parts were printed to make this bike come together, and the total weight is only 132 pounds, making it over 100 pounds lighter than a Vespa scooter. BigRep also made the bike's structure flexible enough to soak up bumps so it can be driven without a traditional suspension. That includes the 3D-printed tires which are designed with a custom tread and unique matrix construction to make them road-friendly. The bike also features a custom fitted seat and chest rest printed with flexible thermoplastic, programmable smart LEDs including headlights, tail lights, and accent lights along the body and forkless steering with eight pivot points, which increases joint strength. According to BigRep, NERA shows that the low cost and fast results of 3D manufacturing allows designers to test prototypes immediately and rapidly produce iterations of innovative engineering. They have yet to announce when or if the impressive bike will be available on the open market. 27 Nov 2018 Pictured: NERA the first fully printed ebike.

Julie takes her son Nathan to watch Standard Ličge, one of the top Belgian soccer teams, for the first time, and tells him how she first fell in love with the legendary club.
Ten years earlier: Julie is still single and going through a rough patch. The company she works for, training disabled people to do various jobs, is struggling. If it closes, the staff will be laid off. Her father, a fanatical Standard supporter, persuades Julie to go to a match with him. He says it'll cheer her up. Her initial skepticism quickly evaporates as she's captivated by the atmosphere, the uninterrupted singing and dancing.
As it happens, one of her trainees, a young disabled man called Olivier, is also a passionate Standard supporter. So she decides to take him to a match, so that he, too, can experience this electrifying atmosphere.

SPLENDID! Hahaha... that's one of my favorite lines in the movie! I LOVE this movie. I also found out after the fact that those two were together in real life and thought that was cute, but I didn't know that they were together prior or in Camelot. Hmmm... I may have to see this movie. Glad you like it, let me know if you want to see it again. I'm sure Laura and Kim would love to join us. :-)

On the 4th of September, (KST), the Media Day of 2018 LCK Spring Split Finals was held in the Riot Korea office, Seoul. KT Rolster and Griffin gave their finals resolutions for the LCK finals, which will be held in Incheon, 8th of September.
Each team was asked to make a manifesto promise for when they will the LCK finals. First, Score answered in the behalf of KT Rolster. "I played in the finals a few times, and always lost. However this time, we've qualified directly to the finals and many elements are in favor of our victory. We will try not to become complacent. I hope to finally hold up the LCK cup this time."
As of a manifesto promise to the fans, Score promised "I'll dye my hair with a different color; let's go with red. I promise to dye my hair red if I win the finals."
In return, cvMax gave out his manifesto in the behalf Griffin. "If we win the finals, I promise to also win World Championship." He answered, to the gasps of crowd in the media room. "There are talks of other international teams that are strong. However, LCK is still the most prestigious region in the world; and all teams in LCK are our teachers. We as a team have learnt a lot, whether we've won or lost the day. We absorbed other teams' strengths and weaknesses in every match."
cvMax added, "If we win LCK, we will be a distilled essence of LCK, perhaps its ultimate form. We will step into the international stage and show the world the strength of Korea."

American Reporter Correspondent
Dummerston, Vt.
DUMMERSTON, Vt. -- In a time of despair like these, with an election season marked by lies, fears, and hatred, with hatred of America growing around the world, and with a lost war on terror that is also a lost war in Iraq, I try to look for small signs of good.
For example, after the carnage at Beslan, the conservative New York Daily News, of all places, ran a story headlined, "Arab World Also in Shock."
It seems that after recent terrorist attacks in Russia, Iraq, Sudan, Saudi Arabia and Yemen, many of them attributed to the influence of Osama Bin Laden, some Arab journalists, intellectuals and clerics have started to reflect upon, as one headline put it, "The Painful Truth: All the World Terrorists Are Muslims."
An Egyptian Islamist named Ahmed Bahgat wrote, "If all the enemies of Islam united together and decided to harm it... they wouldn't have ruined and harmed its image as much as the sons of Islam have done by their stupidity, miscalculations and misunderstanding of the nature of this age."
Unfortunately, hating the United States is as easy as it is popular in the Middle East today - and not without some justification. So it is a great sign of hope there that people are starting to realize that terrorism damages Arabic as well as Western culture.
America may be the fertilizer, but the Middle East is the rich and loamy field where terrorism is grown, and things must change there before it is no longer appealing for young people to strap explosives around their waists to kill strangers and themselves.
Then, in The New York Times, I found an article about "the nation's most visible face of white supremacy," Richard G. Butler, who died last week at the age of 88. Recruitment for new white supremacists has become difficult, Sarah Kershaw reported: "Americans in this day and age are not at all keen on the idea of being recruited into violent revolutionary organizations whose mission is to assassinate public officials. It is not a very sellable idea in a post-9/11 world."
File that under "Be thankful for small favors."
In my own life, once I understood that nothing could stop President George W. Bush from starting his wrong-headed war in Iraq, I began to send money to Doctors Without Borders. Those who suffered the most at the hands of the 9/11 terrorists have taken this idea much further.
Liz Alderman, who lost her youngest son, Peter, 25, at the World Trade Center, received $1.5 million in compensation. According to a story in USA Today titled "Sept. 11 Families Build Foundations of Hope," the Aldermans "put the entire amount into a program that trains doctors to treat victims of mass violence in countries like Rwanda, Cambodia and Bosnia... The Peter C. Alderman Foundation is one way the financial outpouring for families of the nearly 3,000 people killed on 9/11 is flowing back into the world."
The paper then listed more than 130 charitable efforts, from $200 essay prizes to multimillion-dollar foundations, which were started by the families of people who were killed on 9/11.
These are small signs of goodness, and some may say I'm grasping at straws. However, when America's response to terrorism is to strike out viciously at any available target, whether it was responsible for the attacks against it or not, then what else can I do?
I believe there is a pendulum swing to the invisible forces that rule our world. If we go too far to the right, we will eventually swing back towards the left. The center seems to be where we find some small amount of safety and economic security, and we all know the center does not hold for long.
It is good news when forces appear that might serve as a counterweight to the machismo, swaggering and bullyism running wild in the world today. We need them to bring the world back into fragile balance once again.
Raising consciousness, helping those in need, healing wounds, a close examination of American defenses, holding a candle against the wind for peace, a new reluctance of Americans to join violent hate groups, Arabs preaching against terrorism in the Middle East - these are positive and powerful responses to terrorism.

After all, men tend to have more body hair than women in general, so removing it can give you a clean look.
Buying Guide
Our buying guide can help you to choose the best hair removal cream for men:
What are the benefits of buying a hair removal cream?
Here are the benefits of hair removal creams:
1. They're painless. Contrary to getting a painful wax or manual shaving session at home, hair removal creams almost work like magic. Cosmetics are just something you put on, wait for a specific time, then watch as your body hair falls away.
Therefore, hair removal creams can be beneficial to guys who are scared of or have never shaven their body hair or waxed it.
2. Removes unwanted body hair. Needless to say, hair removal creams do work, but it depends on how much you apply. Too little and it might not work well – but don't over-apply! When you follow the instructions for usage, you're bound to get some results.
3. Good for surgeries. If you ever need to get into the operating room and the body part in question needs a shave, it's much more sensible to use hair removal cream to reduce the risk of cuts.
Operational procedures can have less likelihood of after-effect irritation if you use hair removal creams instead of sore-skin-inducing waxing or shaving.
4. Less time-consuming. Let's face it – shaving at home takes a plethora of your time that you could be spending on other important business. Waxing salons could also be time-consuming. Using a hair removal cream is so easy and quick that you can even use it before going to work.
5. Doesn't cut the skin. The hair removal cream's formula contains active ingredients that dissolve hair molecules. This allows the hair to fall off easily from your body part, whether it's your legs or your chest hair (if you don't want to keep it, that is).
How do I choose the best hair removal cream for men?
When you want to buy a hair removal cream, you may want to consider the following:
1. What's your hair type? There are many different types of hair and believe us, you may have difficulty if your hair is the thick type. This may mean you'll need a tougher formulation for a hair removal cream. Think of it as needing a stronger bleach product if you want to dye your hair.
2. What's your skin type?
Yes, you need to know your skin type first. Sensitive skin may not accept hair removal creams that are too harsh and has fragrance and all that. If your skin is naturally sensitive, you should consider hypoallergenic creams.
Remember that not all creams will work well for your skin so it can be a matter of trial and error when you are looking for a hair removal cream.
3. How often will you use it? Let's be honest: some people grow hair faster than others due to genetics, and it's annoying daily. If you're one of these people, you may want to look for a hair removal cream that has a stronger formulation or one that has more content in a tube for you to use.
4. Which body part will you use it for? Is it for the legs or for your chest? Do you also want to get rid of your armpit hair for specific reasons? Certain hair removal creams work individually for a body part, such as sensitive parts. Most of what you'll find is for general areas of your body.
5. What are the ingredients of the product? It is essential to know the ingredients used in the product to see if it is safe and effective. We have listed down common hair removal cream ingredients in the sections below.
It may be ideal to find a hair removal cream that is approved by your local FDA so that its ingredients are nowhere near toxic.
6. Is it worth the price? Of course, there's the saying that "beauty has a price," but you don't always have to go overboard with expensive creams if they have negative reviews. Consider a lotion that fits your budget but also doesn't compromise your skin and hair.
7. What are people saying about the product? It is essential to read reviews for hair removal cream products since they can affect your skin and hair either positively or negatively. Be wary of those products that have reports of skin irritation and the like.
8. Is it easy to take with you? A travel-friendly tube can be a man's best friend when they travel and want to keep their legs hair-free. Mess-free applications are convenient if you are the type of person who is always on the go.
How do I use hair removal cream?
To use hair removal cream, you may have to read the instruction manual of the cream. Not all have the same application method.
Some of them require more minutes to set on your skin while others can be too strong, so don't let them sit for a long time.
The general idea is not to leave them on for too long or else they could possibly irritate your skin, since they are made of chemicals, after all.
What ingredient should I look for in hair removal creams for men?
The most common hair removal cream ingredients are:
sodium thioglycolate
thioglycolic acid
potassium hydroxide
strontium sulfide
calcium thioglycolate
These active ingredients are made to break down hair molecules, resulting in your body hair falling out.
Which is the best brand hair removal cream out there?
There aren't many famous brands for hair removal cream around, but if you look at their list of ingredients and number of positive reviews, then you might find them working just fine.
In the long run, hair removal creams are an alternative to waxing, especially if you don't really like the idea of hurting your skin with rashes. While these creams also do contain chemicals, it's just a matter of the right application, and they won't hurt as much as waxing or shaving does.
So, if your skin doesn't like razors or waxing spas but you want to get rid of body hair fast, hair removal creams are probably the best way to do it.
