text: SpamCopAdmin 0 Posted December 3, 2005 But, NOT any of the people who have not made a reporting error, but want to contact you about a particular reporting problem. IMHO, that is the point. Not everyone knows where the 'wild' is and unless something has gone wrong previously, has no idea how to contact the 'official' support. No, that's not the point. My explanation was about how *Tingo* got my address, not about how somebody else *should* get my address. It explained how someone *might* get my address without having to first come here. And some people do not want to have responders 'guess' as I did, how one would have access to that address - even if it was a pretty good guess. That's only important to you. People who come here for help don't care if you don't want to guess how they didn't get my address. What they want is the address. They don't want anyone saying that this needs to be known before they can be helped, etc. Then give them my address and don't gig them for not knowing. They want someone in authority to say that it will be fixed. They do not want to hear that they can do this or that in order to fix it. Not everyone, of course, but there are enough who are annoyed that it is not the first thing they see after hitting the 'help' button, that another 'user' who tries to help is attacked. And they are especially not interested in helping to make the FAQ more visible so that they wouldn't need an address. Such is life. You're not obligated to help them. All of this should no longer be in this topic because it has nothing to do with the original poster and his problem. Yet you keep posting about it. - Don - Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A brand new report says greater than one-third of girls in 4 low-income international locations in Africa and Asia had been slapped, mocked, forcibly handled or in any other case abused throughout childbirth in well being centres and means that such mistreatment happens worldwide.
The examine revealed Wednesday in The Lancet medical journal says girls in Nigeria, Myanmar, Ghana and Guinea additionally skilled excessive charges of cesarean sections and surgical cuts to the vagina, or episiotomies, with out their consent — and infrequently with no painkiller.
"Mistreatment during childbirth can amount to a violation of human rights, and could be a powerful disincentive from seeking facility-based maternity care," the examine stated in a dialogue of comparable analysis.
The brand new examine led by the World Well being Group adopted greater than 2,000 girls throughout labour and interviewed greater than 2,600 girls after childbirth.
Some 42% reported bodily or verbal abuse or discrimination throughout childbirth. Some girls had been punched, shouted at, scolded or forcibly held down. Youthful, less-educated girls are vulnerable to such mistreatment which additionally consists of neglect by well being staff or using drive throughout procedures, the examine stated.
Many of the abuse occurred within the 15 minutes earlier than and through childbirth. The examine cited analysis that discovered that "midwives and doctors described women as 'uncooperative' during this period and some justified using physical and verbal abuse as 'punishment.'"
Well being officers say the mistreatment of girls throughout childbirth seems to be international, together with in developed international locations. However the practices are not often documented and ladies typically worry reporting such violations.
Earlier studies have documented bodily abuse of girls in jap Europe, significantly these of Roma descent, together with situations the place girls are forcibly separated from their newborns for a number of days.
Abusive practices throughout maternal care have additionally been broadly reported throughout Latin America, the place Venezuela grew to become the primary nation to legislate in opposition to particular unethical practices by adopting a regulation to ban so-called "obstetric violence" in 2007.
Among the many 2,016 girls noticed within the new examine, 13% of the cesarean sections and 75% of the surgical cuts to the vagina had been carried out with out consent. In 59% of instances, vaginal examinations had been carried out with out consent.
"Younger, unmarried women were more likely to have non-consented vaginal examinations," the examine stated.
Of the two,672 girls interviewed after childbirth, greater than half or 57% stated they'd not been provided any aid for ache.
Some girls had been then detained afterward on the well being centres for not having the ability to pay the invoice.
The examine steered permitting girls to have a companion of their alternative current throughout childbirth, enhancing the knowledgeable consent course of and redesigning maternity wards to enhance privateness.

Satellite Radio
What Do I Need To Get Satellite Radio?
There are several options when it comes to choosing your satellite radio. What you need depends most on where you're primarily going to listen to it. You should take radio design and sound quality into consideration as well. Currently, satellite radios can be divided into three categories: dedicated, Dock & Play, and Internet-based. Dedicated car and home radios Dedicated car satellite radios work with in-dash car stereos only. A special antenna connects to it, and sits on the roof of the vehicle. Similarly, dedicated home satellite radios work only indoors. They connect to your home stereo system, and also use a special antenna, which usually needs to be mounted facing a window or outside. Dock & Play radios Dock & Play satellite radios are compact units that work with sets of accessories to play over both your car and home stereos. The advantage of a Dock & Play is you can transfer it from the car to your home stereo, and only pay one subscription. A Dock & ... Continue reading →

Tips for Selecting a Dental Practice in the UK.
Dental visits might not be your cup of tea but remember that without them you might be dealing with much bigger problems than you had thought of. When you are in a comfortable environment you will not likely suffer from anxiety attacks or have your fears get worse which is why you need to consider getting the best dental practice UK to take your bookings to lessen your fear.You will not feel depressed every time you think about your dental appointments when you are happy with the dental practice you have chosen. However, comfort is not the only thing you should be looking for in the dental practice. You should also think about the working hours for the dental practice. This is not just for working days but also the weekends. You may not get specific days free for the purpose of going to the dental office.Thus, you need to make sure you will not be disappointed by finding the dental practice closed. Choose dental practices which are situated close to where you live or work. You cannot afford to take the location for granted when you are deciding on how to proceed.
You should make sure that the dental practice also has an emergency unit. It cannot be a fully functional emergency unit if it does not run 24 hours. Accidents might not be predicted in most cases which is why the knowledge that there will be an emergency unit you can visit for help will give you peace of mind. Also, clinics which are open until late hours offer people who leave work late a chance to get their dental procedures and also check-up. You should make sure the dental practice has the right accreditations before you deal with them. In the UK, every dental professional should be registered with the General Dental Council. The Care Quality Commision requires the dental practice to be registered with it so that it can easily control the services. You can obtain the reports on the internet.
It is important to pick a practice that offers comprehensive services so that you do not have to keep moving from one place to another in search of services. It helps in time management and you can find more information here.

Finance function: When referring to the finance function (or finance team), we recognise it can take different forms. It can be a finance team reporting to a Finance Director, either centrally configured or dispersed across an organisation. For smaller organisations, the finance function can sometimes be external, such as its accountant. We will simply refer to the "finance function" or "finance team" to capture any of the various forms it may take.
Integrated thinking:
Integrated thinking (or an integrated approach) is the embedding of sustainability, in its broadest sense, into an organisation's overall strategy, decision-making process and day to day operations. This means the consideration of all the resources/relationships/capitals that the organisation depends on and impacts in order to create sustainable long-term value.
We define sustainability (or a sustainable business model), in its broadest sense, as the ability of an organisation to create positive social and environmental outcomes whilst delivering long-term value for its stakeholders and society as a whole.
Stakeholders: These include investors, staff, suppliers, customers, local communities, NGOs, charities, governments, regulators and wider society, as applicable.

It's never the same two weeks in a row. A collection of what I find interesting in the world of food, nutrition, and holistic health. Here's what's on my mind.
Food: An Atlas – It's an interesting project to map food in a number of different ways; production, distribution, security, and cuisine Should be fascinating to look at and see where your food is really coming from.
Factory Farms May Raise Blood Pressure – We know factory farms are bad for the animals that are raised there. Overcrowding and filthy conditions are not good for any living being. The environmental impact of CAFO's is huge. Now it turns out that it may not be healthy for people living nearby either. While the study is small and the results not firm, it points to another reason why CAFO's may not be the best way to raise meat.
Meat Inspections Are Down – And speaking of meat, it turns out that our government is inspecting less and less of the meat coming in to this country from other countries. The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is instead relying more and more on those countries to self-report any issues. Another good reason to buy local and get to know your farmer.
Women Who Exercise Still Sitting Too Much – Whoops, that would include me. The health results of sitting are known to be bad for us. The more we sit the more challenges we face to our health. I try to be as active as possible but when I added up my hours spent sitting, either at work or at home, it came to far more than I thought it did. Time to bump up the activity program and try to find ways to be more active during the course of a day.
Sports Drinks Overhyped – "There isn't much evidence that sports drinks improve athletic performance." Truthfully not many people work out enough to need a sports beverage. Not only that, most sports drinks are filled with garbage ingredients. Consider drinking water, a great hydrating beverage. Need electrolytes (and I mean really need them), then try coconut water, a perfectly balanced electrolyte beverage.
If you're going to add more exercise to your routine, don't forget to add in stretching. And to do stretch properly as demonstrated in this video.

On October 9, 2019, the Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General ("OIG") released a proposed rule pertaining to various Anti-Kickback Statute and Civil Monetary Penalties Law new regulations and modifications ("Proposed Rule"). The Proposed Rule is one component of the Department of Health and Human Services's ("HHS's") recently launched "Regulatory Sprint to Coordinated Care" and is intended to provide additional flexibility to health care providers, practitioners and suppliers as they continue to face the transition from volume to value reimbursement.
In conjunction with the Regulatory Sprint to Coordinated Care, OIG previously published a Request for Information ("RFI") regarding potential Anti-Kickback Statute ("AKS") and Civil Monetary Penalties Law ("CMP") initiatives that would ease the burden of this volume to value transition.
This article is intended to briefly summarize the proposed changes that affect patient relationships impacted by the AKS and CMP. Hall Render will be publishing additional analyses of other modifications addressed by the Proposed Rule, as well as the proposed changes to the Stark regulations by CMS.
Proposed AKS Revisions
The AKS prohibits anyone from soliciting, receiving, offering or paying any remuneration or generating business in return for a referral for an item or service that may be paid for by a federal health care program.
Key Definitions
OIG has proposed several new AKS Safe Harbors related to various conduct and arrangements. When interpreting the proposed Safe Harbors, understanding the definitions that underpin these proposals is critical. Note that all of these definitions are proposed and are subject to modification pending the comments received by OIG.
Value-Based Enterprise. The network of individuals and entities that collaborate together to achieve one or more value-based purposes. This network could range from a collaboration by two individual physician practices to a network of hospital systems, post-acute providers and physician practices.
Engagement Tools and Supports. In-kind, preventive, patient monitoring and assessment items, goods or services as well as services designed to identify and address a patient's social determinants of health. These tools and supports must have a direct connection to the coordination and management of care for the target patient population.
Target Patient Population. An identified patient population selected by a value-based enterprise or its participants using legitimate and verifiable criteria that is set forth in writing in advance of commencement of the value-based arrangement and furthers the value-based purposes of the value-based enterprise.
Proposed New Safe Harbors
- Care Coordination Arrangements to Improve Quality, Health Outcomes and Efficiency Safe Harbor. This proposed Safe Harbor is one of three proposed new Safe Harbors intended to specifically address value-based arrangements. This proposed Safe Harbor is limited to in-kind remuneration exchanged between qualifying value-based enterprise participants of value-based arrangements that "squarely satisfy" several proposed requirements.
- Value-Based Arrangements with Substantial Downside Financial Risk Safe Harbor. This proposed Safe Harbor would protect both in-kind and monetary remuneration exchanged amongst value-based enterprises that have assumed "substantial" downside financial risk and the participants that meaningfully share in that risk. OIG noted that it is considering extending this Safe Harbor to remuneration that passes from one value-based enterprise to another.
- Value-Based Arrangements with Full Financial Risk Safe Harbor. OIG has recognized that value-based enterprises assuming full financial risk do not contain significant, traditional fraud and abuse risks and therefore has proposed a separate Safe Harbor with additional flexibility for these types of arrangements. The highest financial risk warrants the highest ability for innovation regarding coordinate care arrangements.
- Arrangements for Patient Engagement and Support to Improve Quality, Health Outcomes and Efficiency Safe Harbor. This Safe Harbor, as proposed, would permit in-kind patient engagement tools and/or supports furnished directly by a value-based enterprise participant to a patient in a target patient population that are directly connected to the coordination and management of care when all elements of the Safe Harbor are satisfied.
- CMS-Sponsored Model Arrangements and CMS-Sponsored Model Patient Incentives Safe Harbor. This proposed Safe Harbor would permit remuneration between parties testing an initiative by the Medicare Innovation Center and/or the Medicare Shared Savings Program. It also permits the provision of incentives and supports to patient participants in these CMS-sponsored models. A goal of this Safe Harbor is to reduce OIG's burden in issuing specific fraud and abuse waivers for each new CMS-sponsored model that may be rolled out in the future.
- Donations of Cybersecurity Technology and Services Safe Harbor. Given the recent increase in cybersecurity breaches, this Safe Harbor proposes to permit the donation of any software or other types of information technology, other than hardware, that serves to protect information by preventing, detecting and responding to cyberattacks. Note that CMS has proposed a similar exception to the Stark Law.
Modifications to Existing Safe Harbors
- Electronic Health Records Items and Services Safe Harbor. OIG has proposed to add protections for certain cybersecurity technology included as a part of the broader electronic health record ("EHR") arrangement. In addition, the Proposed Rule addresses updates regarding interoperability of EHR platforms. Lastly, OIG has proposed to entirely remove the sunset date associated with this Safe Harbor but is also soliciting comments as to whether the sunset date should be extended and not removed.
- Personal Services and Management Contracts Safe Harbor. OIG has proposed to modify this Safe Harbor to add flexibility for part-time arrangements by no longer requiring the aggregate compensation be set in advance, only that the compensation methodology be set in advance. In addition, OIG has proposed that the specific schedule of services would not have to be set in advance. These proposed modifications are intended to align the Personal Services and Management Contracts Safe Harbor with the corollary Stark Law exception for personal service arrangements. The Proposed Rule also contemplates additional flexibility for arrangements that include outcomes-based payments.
- Warranties Safe Harbor. OIG has proposed to expand this Safe Harbor to include bundled arrangements for items and related services. This expansion could increase the utility of supply chain purchases under a written warranty by including related services that support the use of those goods. Further, OIG has clarified the definition of "warranty" to apply to FDA-regulated drugs and devices. This proposed expansion is intended to enhance innovative and mutually beneficial arrangements between manufacturers/suppliers and their hospitals and health system buyers.
- Local Transportation Safe Harbor. OIG has proposed to modify this Safe Harbor to expand the rural area mileage restrictions from 50 miles to 75 miles. In addition, it is proposed that there would be no limit on mileage for transportation of patients to a residence of their choice upon discharge from an inpatient admission. OIG is also considering permitting transportation to the location of the patient's choice (which would permit transportation to another health care provider upon discharge).
Finally, OIG has proposed to codify the statutory exception to the definition of "remuneration" as it relates to ACO Beneficiary Incentive Programs for the Medicare Shared Savings Program.
Proposed CMP Revisions for Beneficiary Inducements
The CMP imposes restrictions on remuneration to Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. OIG has proposed to revise the CMP definition of "remuneration" to add a new exception for the provision of items and services that relate to telehealth technologies provided to certain in-home dialysis patients. This exception would permit renal dialysis facilities and providers to provide telehealth technologies to patients that are currently receiving in-home dialysis from that provider or facility.
In addition, if the above referenced AKS Patient Engagement and Support Arrangements Safe Harbor and modifications to the local transportation Safe Harbor are finalized, conduct that satisfies these Safe Harbors would also constitute exceptions to the beneficiary inducement CMP's definition of "remuneration."
Practical Takeaways
The Proposed Rule shows OIG's intention to afford providers, practitioners and suppliers with additional opportunities to improve the quality of patient care during the transition from volume to value-based reimbursement. However, it is important to note that the Proposed Rule cannot be viewed as final in any way. OIG specifically instructed that, until final determination is made regarding the arrangements described in the Proposed Rule, these types of arrangements should not be considered exempt from liability under the AKS. Any resulting Safe Harbors from future final regulations would only offer prospective protection.

What problems are showing up in your child's school bus
MADISON, Wis. — State law requires every school bus be inspected at least once a year.
During these inspections, state patrol inspectors check essentials: emergency exits, brakes, steering and general safety.
News 3 Now dug through two years of inspection records to see if problems identified in these annual checkups are being fixed.
The Results
Only about 1 1/2 out of every 10 buses had to be pulled from service.
Most buses we checked had no or only minor problems, some of which were fixed during the inspection.
Others passed despite not meeting federal standards or showing issues with the brake system. One was approved with a broken hinge on the emergency exit.
The report states issues need to be fixed within five days, but some buses had the same problem listed multiple years in a row, like a broken fan or unlabeled first-aid kit.
Badger Bus Lines, the company contracted for Madison schools, said these reoccurring issues are a coincidence, saying it fixes issues promptly and does preventative maintenance.
In Madison Metropolitan School District, there are 135 buses in the fleet, and they are running constantly. That everyday wear can lead to repeated issues, the company said.
Robert Miller, a spokesman for the Wisconsin State Patrol, said school buses are some of the safest vehicles on the road, in part because they are inspected every year.
"Like any motor vehicle, school bus components can wear and break over time," Miller said. "In general, school bus carriers have excellent maintenance programs."
He said school buses are pulled if they pose an "imminent hazard condition."
Any issues found in these inspections need to be fixed within five days, or else the State Patrol can issue a $200 citation, but it's on the bus company to make sure it's done. Otherwise, these violations are found on spot checks or if someone calls it in.
Since 2018, the State Patrol has issued 134 citations across the state.
Madison Metropolitan School District did not respond to a request for comment on this story..

Pilgrimage rode to Lhasa, the Holy City in Tibet, is paved with reverence towards the Mother Nature, faith in life and love, sometimes with sacrifice and death.
My pilgrimage journey started from Nyingchi where was renowned as the 'Second Heaven'. I came across a Tibetan grandma who was 62-year-old. An interleaved eye contact allowed us to read the peace and warmth in each other's eyes. Right after the glance, we agreed to support each other in the following Pilgrimage. After two days crawling on the bumpy mountain road, my knees and hands began to bleed. Cold wind cut my face. Thirst tore my throat. Fatigue from every full-body prostration dragged me to the boundary of total collapse. Once the sun rose from the east, jumped came out between towering snow-capped mountains and shined over the Holy City, I always knew where I belonged.
Ordinary people questioned us and argued with such a nearly self-mutilation way on pilgrimage. I, a devout Buddhist, have donated my soul, my body and everything related to this mortal world to the Buddha, which will be memorized by every getting down on my knees, every stretching out, every prostration with full body, and every pressing face on the earth. Tribulation in this life redeems the sin in the past life and cumulates happiness for the next life. The hope for prosper and the universal love were melt in my every kneeling down and standing up, being purified and propagated and through the metempsychosis.
When the sun rose again from the skyline in the east, a ray beamed down upon her face, which was so peaceful, holy and serene that stood out from the crowded world. At that moment, I believed I saw the Buddha infused in her and smile at me. With a smile on my face, I left her sleep and got up to prepare a simple breakfast. After setting all staff ready, I tried to wake her up, which turned out to be impossible forever. She was dead and cold. She contributed her body to the vultures, to quicksand, to snow, to beautiful time in their lives, to the tortures they must have. She realized her dream with her passionate body lying peacefully in such harsh environment. An illusion suddenly hit me that she would wake up in a heaven so calm, so easy, so thorough and neat as if they just sleep.
Eagles will bring her to the sky and dignify her soul to heaven. Sand will slowly engulf her body. Her body was left here, but their souls continued the Samsara for the endless pursuit of holiness. Wiping off tears and holding my grief, what I needed to do was to leave her, leave her exactly what she was at that moment, and leave her to time and nature. What I took up was her blessing, her dream and her braveness to continue my journey to my heaven.
I persevered in moving forwards with mind steeled by the love and dream of this Tibetan grandma. On the pilgrimage road, I was not alone. A young mother carried her five children and this household had experienced…

2020-03-12 09:37 ET - News Release
New efforts and protocol added to ensure company provides the best experience to every club member
NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 12, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SmileDirectClub (Nasdaq: SDC), the oral care company that created the first direct-to-consumer telehealth platform for teeth straightening, today unveiled updates to its customer experience to ensure greater transparency of its procedures for its club members and provide effective training for its team members. The Company conducted a thorough review of its customer experience with the single mission to uphold the company's commitment to safe, affordable access to care. As a result, the following improvements have been made:
Pre-Screening Requirements: SmileDirectClub is adjusting its customer consent form to ensure customers understand the need to verify that they have visited a dentist within six months of starting treatment with SmileDirectClub and have not reported any pain or other clinical concerns specific to their oral health. A prior visit to a dentist is an important part of any good oral health program, and has always been a requirement to begin treatment with SmileDirectClub.
SmileShop Training: SmileShop team members have received additional training to ensure consistent, clear and effective communication with customers regarding teledentistry and SmileDirectClub's consent form. Although many of SmileDirectClub's SmileGuides are dental assistants and hygienists, when they are in the SmileShops they are not engaged in that capacity, do not practice dentistry and are not able to answer clinical questions about clear aligner therapy or treatment plans. SmileGuides provide general information about SmileDirectClub and its teledentistry platform and the SmilePay program, as well as gather patient information for subsequent review, assessment and diagnosis by one of the more than 250 dentists and orthodontists in the affiliated doctor network. Should customers wish to speak to a dentist or orthodontist in the network, SmileGuides may provide information on how to do so. This training is being rolled out across all shops, and is a mandatory part of the onboarding process for all new SmileShop team members.
Communication with Treatment Team and Doctors: Since its founding, every SmileDirectClub customer's treatment is prescribed and overseen by a dentist or orthodontist licensed to practice in the state of the customer. Each customer will receive the name and contact information of their treating dentist or orthodontist, upon the approval of the treatment plan, making staying connected throughout treatment simple. In addition, SmileDirectClub will provide a dedicated email and phone number for any customer who wishes to speak with an affiliated dentist or orthodontist prior to starting their smile journey.
Simplified Refunds: SmileDirectClub is improving its refund timelines and making its refund policy clearer. SmileDirectClub's Smile Guarantee continues to offer a full refund without questions or conditions for any reason within 30 days of receiving aligners. Customers who seek a refund outside of the Smile Guarantee window may receive a partial refund for any unused aligners. SmileDirectClub's customer service team will continue to work with any customer to offer additional refinements or referral to a brick and mortar practice for follow-up.
Automating Manufacturing: The Company has automated its manufacturing lines to significantly reduce delivery and shipping timelines for both new orders and mid-course corrections and retainers. While SmileDirectClub has a 95% satisfaction rate, the company has grown quickly and that has resulted in complaints from customers regarding shipping time. The shift to automated manufacturing is intended to address this concern and SmileDirectClub has made significant progress in reducing shipping time. Later this year, the company will expand its manufacturing capabilities with the opening of its second facility in Kyle, Texas which will reduce shipping time even further.
Insurance Coverage: SmileDirectClub's clear aligner therapy is already offered in-network for adult orthodontia treatment in some corporate plans provided by United Healthcare and Aetna. SmileDirectClub is committed to expanding access to affordable, premium oral care products and will continue to seek additional network partners to join in this mission. Additionally, customers may use HSA and FSA funds to purchase clear aligner therapy through SmileDirectClub.
"We are a mission-driven, customer-first business, and we are taking every step necessary to ensure that all of our club members receive the care and experience they deserve," said David Katzman, Chief Executive Officer, SmileDirectClub. "As the leader in the teledentistry space, we are constantly evaluating our processes and listening to all feedback in order to ensure our customers receive a positive experience that delivers on our mission to provide affordable, convenient access to care. In a time when the convenience and safety of telehealth is increasingly critical, we are focused on ensuring a safe and effective option for consumers."
About SmileDirectClub SmileDirectClub, Inc. (Nasdaq: SDC) ("SmileDirectClub") is an oral care company and creator of the first direct-to-consumer medtech platform for teeth straightening, now also offered directly via dentist and orthodontists' offices. Through our cutting-edge teledentistry technology and vertically integrated model, we are revolutionizing the oral care industry, from clear aligner therapy to our affordable, premium oral care product line.

Entobdella soleae
Entobdella soleae van Beneden & Hesse, 1864; Johnston, 1929.
OTHER COMMON NAMES None known.
Adults 0.07-0.23 in (2 -6 mm) long. Body white or yellowish, flattened with disc-shaped haptor. Embedded in haptor: two pairs of hamuli; one pair of central accessory sclerites that may represent a modified central pair of hooklets; and 14 tiny peripherally located hooklets. Mouth on ventral surface. Conspicuous glandular pharynx. Four eyespots. Adhesive pad on each side of head. Two testes and a large muscular unarmed "penis."
Not systematically mapped. Parasite of common sole, Solea solea, sand sole, Pegusa lascaris and Senegalese sole, Solea sene-galensis on eastern Atlantic seaboard of Europe.
Adult parasites on lower surface of sole. Fifty percent of common soles off English coast carry 1-6 adult parasites.
Body muscles generate haptor suction by lifting anterior pair of hamuli relative to accessory sclerites. Edge of haptor sealed by valve. Soles partly bury themselves in sediments with low levels of oxygen; parasites respond to this condition by undulating their bodies. Their flat bodies also spread and become thinner. These responses increase the availability of oxygen to the organism and enhance its uptake. Adults and juveniles orientate themselves with respect to the host's scales, most probably using their sense of touch. May use scales as clues when moving forward along the upper surface of the host. Movement achieved by alternately attaching the haptor and the sticky pads.
Feed on host's epidermis, which is eroded by the parasite's protrusible pharynx.
Mutual exchange of spermatophores occurs. Parasite lays tetrahedral eggs, each with long stalk. Two eggs laid per hour at 53°F (12°C). Eggs attach to sand grains— not to fish— by sticky droplets on stalks. After incubation for 4 weeks at 53°F (12°C), eggs hatch soon after dawn in absence of host. Host is
nocturnal and rests during daylight; hence freshly hatched larvae have a stationary target. There is, however, an unknown ingredient in the mucus of the sole's skin that stimulates hatching at any time of day or night. Oncomiracidia usually attach to sole's upper surface and migrate forward, moving from the head to the host's lower surface where they reach sexual maturity. When two fishes make contact, adult and juvenile parasites may move from the lower surface of one fish to upper surface of the other. Parasites arriving on the recipient host find their way forward and move onto its lower surface.
CONSERVATION STATUS Not threatened.
None known as of 2003. Entobdella, however, has the potential to kill soles by superinfection in captive situations. Its close relative Neobenedenia melleni poses an especially serious threat to fish farms and aquaria, because it combines the potential for massive superinfections with a remarkably low specificity. Neobenedenia melleni is capable of infecting over a hundred wild and captive fish species belonging to more than 30 families from 5 different orders. ♦

I'm Jess; a pretty ordinary kinda girl living in the Australian city of Melbourne. I'm the kind of girl you probably see every day; walking through a busy city on her way to work, sipping a cup of tea on her lunch break, giggling with her husband or friends over brunch, pausing on the sidewalk to text her sister, quietly reading a book on the train home from work…
But inside that ordinary façade is another girl; one with extraordinary dreams. There's been a lot of change in my life, but the two constants that have always been my loves for writing, and for exploring & learning about new places & cultures.
This little space of mine is a kind of electronic journal and time capsule; I want to leave some sort of record of what life was like for a girl like me. Because, over time, things change. Lifestyles adjust. Cultures evolve. Cities are re-built. I know that in the grand scheme of things, I'm living in the tiniest little corner of history, but I want that to be recorded somewhere, so that in years to come people can see what it was like "back in the day…"
You'll find a bit of everything here – books that have inspired me, meals I've enjoyed around the world and recipes for those I've cooked in my own kitchen, markets I've trawled, all punctuated with some very honest stories about my own life and experiences trying to live a full, adventurous life as a text-book introvert accompanied by her companions Depression & Anxiety.
And, as the driving force behind this blog, you'll find many, many writings on my travels. I know there are thousands of other travel bloggers and writers out there, many of whom with much more experience than I. But I write about places from my own point of view and place in the world, and I know no one else can do that 🙂 When I write about a city, it's people, it's culture, it's attractions and allure, it's not as a local – I feel I would be disrespecting the citizens to write as if I know it all after visiting somewhere they've lived their entire lives.
Instead, I write about my experiences as a visitor, with the aim of supporting and encouraging other visitors who are looking for some first-hand advice or information about a faraway land they too want to experience. As great as it is to get some local knowledge, I've found it can be just as (if not more) reassuring to get other information from another visitor who's experienced travelling through a foreign land for themselves.
I also write for others, so if you'd like to work together, click on through to find out more about my work!
Enough from me now; go make yourself a hot pot of tea, get comfortable, and allow me to invite you along on my adventure 🙂

Dear Shelley,
We can't even begin to express our immense gratitude on your stellar performance with the sale of our house. It took you less than a week to organize the listing, connect us with an excellent staging company, get the top photographer from https://www.anniekinserphotography.com/, publish brochures and have an open house, all of this and more in just seven days! You truly are a miracle worker! We couldn't have done it without you, especially because the resulting sale price has not only exceeded our asking price, but it also exceeded our expectations. We have always known you as one of the top professionals in Real Estate sales, and you have proven it again. Suffice it to say, we are extremely pleased with our choice of Realtor and will recommend you to all our friends. Please once again accept our sincere thanks on the job well done.
With warmest regards,
– Sima & Peter
We could not have asked for a more enthusiastic, dedicated and knowledgeable REALTOR® than Shelley Lederman. From the very moment we signed on with her, we were confident that we had chosen the right person. After a very successful open house, our condo was sold in eight days. It was a real pleasure to work with Shelley. We would be extremely happy to recommend her to anyone looking to sell their home.
– David, Marla and Joshua Rootman
I have known Shelley for many years and have never met a more honest detail oriented individual. Shelley is one of those rare people who does exactly what she says she will do. If you are lucky enough to get Shelley to represent you, if it is possible to sell your home at the price you and her agree to it Shelley will get it done! Peter Thomas Former Chairman of Century 21 Real Estate.
– Peter H Thomas
Dear Shelley;
I felt that I must write you to thank you for your superlative efforts in finding me a home. nWith very short notice you were able to compile a list of properties to view that suited my criteria precisely. I sincerely appreciated this respect of my time. Your professionalism and dedication to finding me a home, as well as your superior negotiating skills to ensure I paid the lowest possible price was unequaled by any Realtor I know. Thank you again Shelley for your enthusiasm and optimism. I love my new home and look forward to doing business with you again.
Our most sincere thanks and gratitude go to you today for your exceptional effort in making it happen for us. Your knowledge, your timely advice and guidance, and above all your highest level of professionalism made it possible for us to own our new home. Thank you for being you!
– Sima
Shelley works extra hard. It's nothing unusual for Shelley to be closing a deal at one or two in the morning. She has a wonderful way with people. She treats everyone with respect.
– Ronnie Clarkson, Royal LePage
I have had the privilege of working with Shelley in her capacity as a High level Ace Westside Realtor, a top notch super Branch Manager of Royal Lepage's NO.1 office on Vancouver's Westside in my capacity as (then) President of Royal Lepage (RES).
She is unique talented, committed – a born leader and turns everything she touches to gold. I can highly recommend her. In whatever endeavour that she chooses to focus her attention on…she will be very successful.
– Ozzie Jurock, F.R.I.
It was my pleasure to work for years for Shelley at NRS Lederman Realty where she inspired all of us to reach for the sky! I also worked with Shelley for 9 years at Re/Max Select where she taught me so much about people and selling real estate. Anything that Shelley does is always with a passion!
– Mary Stark
Shelley is the hardest worker. When she undertakes a task you know it will be done precisely and as quickly as possible. And she's fun too.
– Barbara Kingstone

Cliffs blanketed in clover and overgrown grasses, blackberry vines mound under the tall cypress canopy. Burgundy striped ice plant weave between wildflowers. At the rocky rim, winds cut away timeless green and blue sedimentary layers resembling the sky. The sky lined in white scattered clouds, how grateful, how lucky, how safe standing between such a space, among surroundings that I imagine knowing since birth.

The opportunity to live out my lifestyle, culture, and tradition is a privilege. To see the bird over the waters, the otter through the waves, so much feeling wells up to protect, to honor, to be thankful for nature, for life. Yet, people a thousand miles away have no neighbors gloating over their lands, to protect their livelihood, to save their ecosystems. No united front or country banning together to care enough for their fellow privilege. Instead, it's common knowledge that others regularly face the loss of their livelihood, and give the promise of dislocation to their children while we all enjoy our comforts, maybe wondering what we can do. What can we do? We war against our ourselves, like a civil war, a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, the great debate of casualties towards progress or destruction. How morality is such a strange word in this day and age.
The right to carry out generations of teaching and cooperation with the earth's resources has been denied by over consumption. Collective consumption and production, greenhouses gasses, resource depletion, and pollutants all inhibit the preservation of entire nations and future generations to live within their human right and privilege. How many coastal regions and islands are now, and will be underwater? How many communities depending on coastal land and sea for food have been forced to leave their homesteads because of overfished oceans, polluted oceans, rising waters. Precious, lovely animals that share this earth with us are dying, drowning, starving for lack of food because of warming temperatures. Nations have being relocated, indigenous ways lost because we have treated our home poorly. Will humanity boast that it only loved itself, nothing more, not the earth or its beautiful animals and creatures, just humanity.
The only home we have is the earth. We share the earth. We are a world nation, despite our countries and laws. Human rights are universal. At least they ought to be, and animal rights. We all understand the need for resources to maintain the lives we live, and we all see how easy it is to lack consciousness when danger has been sleeping on our front porch. Climate change is a world responsibility when whole communities, countries are deemed disposable because we are not doing more as a whole. Thank goodness for the people that have invested their time, heart, soul, and innovation to push green living forward, because truly, how much longer are we expected to be a part of this cruelty and disregard. Thank you to those who spend your money to help get things done in the Climate Change War. You have said, "I am responsible. What can I do?"

Climate change needs to be on the front burner. Taking care of human well being and what gives us food, water, and resources is a justifiable cause to be at war with old traditional ways of thinking about our environment. People have already lost their homes reaping the consequences of others, and climate change will have the biggest impact on children not even born yet. Climate change has the biggest impact on people who make the least harmful environmental footprint. Who are we! This is not okay. There are too many reasons and excuses, too many naysayers still deeming climate change not here, unwilling to invest into what we cannot see. We do see it though. We are not blind. We are not ignorant. We do care.
People have spoke out for years, advocated for years, pioneered and sweat over speeches, books, documentaries, building businesses, writing laws and policies, desperately trying to help people understand climate change. Thankfully, we now know a smidgen of what green living entails. Caring about our environment is an investment for our children and their children's lives. If we live, we partake. The small things count. Grow gardens, say no to plastic, go solar, go self-sustainable living. We plant trees, lots of them. We create wild habitats in our yards. When I pluck lettuce for my sandwich and salad, when I recycle gray water, when I search for my cloth bags to go to the grocery it helps. I am trying to live within my human rights. I am trying to the fight the war on climate change as if eating clean and being sustainable wasn't it"s own luxury.
We have a responsibility to the earth and to the future, to our children and to others. It's simple. We are responsible. I don't have the right to produce significant environmental hazards upon others. I don't have the right to go into someone's house and steal from their fridge, pick ax their landscape, flood their home. Not taking action to control climate change is the same thing. Huge corporations, small business, individuals need the environment to be healthy, not only because it's is right to care, but because we live off the earth. Protecting the environment is protecting our lives and all things living.
Do we want to live without environmental accountability? When does making too big a footprint become illegal? When do regulations get tighter and standards of humanitarian laws make a greater impact. It's not legal to hurt or kill someone else. Why is it legal to do it slowly? Invisibly? It is visible now. We don't have a right to continue to do nothing when we know how to create the change that will stop us from hurting others, animals, and the earth. It's our global responsibility to look after the well being of the earth and its resources.
Capitalism can embrace moral responsibility, and also focus on earning money. We can promote love, kindness, and respect along with working hard, maintaining careers, infrastructures, productions, and contributing economically. Earning large amounts of money does not mandate the exploitation of others and earth's resources, it is a choice. Looking out over the cliffs, seeing the beautiful landscape, pure waters and greenery too bright and thriving to imagine no longer being a part of my world, I ask, Am I the lucky one, or am I unlucky! Am I not safe! Rather, I am poor, part of a greater system that destroys smaller cultures not as big or economically developed. We are not proud, we are sorry. We are sorry. I am sorry. We apologize for using more than our share of resources without concern.
Photos by Kate
Down the road, I hope that we can be proud to say we made changes, we worked to protect future generations. We took care of our resources. Will our children have the opportunity to be proud? I hope so. I hope it doesn't take another fifty years to care for environmental livelihood. Worldwide we compromise, destroying the lives of others while our own community's are sustained. It is not a time to make timid efforts, but each to his own, to know and act for themselves how responsible they are to fight to save humanity and our home.

The political, scientific, historical, architectural and business centre, the role of Moscow in the country's turbulent past is aptly reflected through its buildings and monuments. The golden onion domes of the Kremlin's Orthodox churches, stand testimony to the country's regal past, while Lenin's mausoleum and the massive GUM shopping complex are symbols of Soviet Union's communist era. For tourists, a major draw of Moscow is the Kremlin. The fortified citadel has stood witness to the many famous and tragic events that changed the course of the nation. Consisting of a multitude of palaces, an ancient tower, former military fortifications, and churches, the Kremlin links the modern day Moscow to its legendary past. The center of Russia's political life, the Kremlin has been home to Tsars, general secretaries of the Soviet Union and Russian presidents. Lying beneath the walls of the Kremlin, is Moscow's famous Red Square. Each monument in Red Square has a fascinating legacy. The most famous of these is the unique St Basils Cathedral, which, with its distinct and colourful onion domes is one of the most recognisable buildings in the world. Red Square brings to life the transition of Russia from a tumultuous past to becoming one of the most intriguing capitals of Europe.

Even with the costs of health care rising, there are options available to remedy this situation. It all starts by speaking to a local insurance broker, because they know their products and can provide reasonable health insurance quotes.
Yes, a lot of Americans say they can't afford health insurance despite getting reasonable health insurance quotes, but there are so many plans, that something can be worked out one way or another. They will need to know this information for the future because they may be mandated to have health insurance under a health care reform bill (if it's passed into law).

First class service that didn't see the light
My Week
ZOOMED to Cambridge on Thursday for a BBC Question Time appearance in the same guildhall where I sat my law finals 41 years ago. The suddenly familiar surroundings; fear gnawing at the innards . . . it gnawed again now. But this time I'd left less to chance. There would surely be a question on Royal Mail privatisation, and I had in my pocket an envelope posted to me recently. I would read that out (I thought) as an example of the good service we get now, and hope to get after privatisation too. It was addressed to:
Matthew Parris

Specifying or defining an access account in Configuration Manager 2007 enables you to grant, limit, or revoke access to package source files on distribution points. Although the package share on a distribution point is, by default, a hidden share, controlling this access can be a useful security measure.
By default, when Configuration Manager creates the package share, it grants Read access to the local Users group and Full Control to the Administrators group. For more information, see About Package Access Accounts.
|In some cases, removing the Users group as a package access account might cause software distribution to fail. If the distribution point is in a native mode site, you must add IUSR_<computername> as a package access account with the permissions required to access to the package. If a distribution point is configured to allow anonymous access for mobile device clients, you must also add the Internet Guest account as a package access account.
|You must have Modify permissions for the Package security object class to specify an access account. For more information about security permissions, see Classes and Instances for Object Security in Configuration Manager.
To specify a package access account
In the Configuration Manager console, navigate to System Center Configuration Manager / Site Database / Computer Management / Software Distribution / Packages.
Expand to the package for which you want to specify an access account.
Right-click Access Accounts, point to New, and then click the type of access account you want to define:
- Generic Access Account
- Windows User Access Account
- Generic Access Account
Click Set.
- If you are creating a generic access account,
click the account type to create and then click OK.
- If you are creating a Windows User access
account, type the account name you want to grant permissions to, in
the form domain\user. Click the account type to create, and
then click OK.
- If you are creating a generic access account, click the account type to create and then click OK.
From the Permissions drop-down list, select the level of permissions to grant to the account. For more information about the permissions available, see About Package Access Accounts.
Click OK.

- Click Distribution Points to show all
distribution points associated with the package.
- Select each distribution point displayed in
the results pane, right-click, and then click Refresh
Distribution Points.

Caherleaheen Wins Tralee Primary Schools Athletics Trophy.
Congratulations to all our young athletes who participated in the Tralee Primary Schools event which was hosted by Tralee Harriers, last Thursday evening. Every single child competed whole-heartedly and many won medals in their individual races. We secured some stunning wins, overcame disappointment, celebrated each other and ultimately never gave up. As you can see in photo above, we won 6 medals in the 6 relay events () : 3 golds, 1 silver and 2 bronze. All the subs were on standby and we needed them on the night due to injuries. What a fantastic result, when one considers the various challenges which they faced on the night! Here are some pics, with more to follow when the children return to school with their treasure-trove of silverware. This is our 3rd successive year winning the trophy, since its inception three years ago. We won by 6 points…..a very tight, fist-clenching battle! Our school has participated for over 14 years and the children never fail to give it 110%. Sincere thanks to Tralee Harriers for hosting this annual event. It has become a really important fixture in our sporting calendar. Thank you all for being so supportive of each other and let's hope our medal winners will keep the momentum going as they prepare to represent Caherleaheen at the upcoming Kerry Schools Finals in An Ríocht, Castleisland (Date to be confirmed). Many thanks to Brian Sargent for the video above.

My favored pup, Ringo, crossed over the Rainbow Bridge just a few weeks ago. It changed into rather surprising. Even supposing he changed into 14, had arthritis in his hips, cataracts and couldn't hear value a darn, he changed into one elated wholesome boy up unless his final week. Then without discover the aggressive most cancers in his spleen (that I didn't know about) overwhelmed his gadget and he changed into long gone in a subject of days.
My closing pup, Baer, who's all of 7 occurring 3 (one Energizer Bunny battery too many), is perplexed. What took blueprint to his huge brother? We had been a pack of three, now it's neutral appropriate "Mommy and me." He trots his popular toy, a stuffed canines, in all places in the house, throughout the doggie door, abet into the house, brings it to me. Takes it abet out of doorways. Buries it within the garden. Unburies it. Aargh. The boy doesn't know what to abolish with himself. I set apart telling him, "Be affected person, I'll fetch you a original brother soon," but words neutral appropriate aren't cutting it.
As I take a seat there petting him, missing our Ringo, I'm reminded that happiness is a desire. I'm in a position to dwell unlucky, low-intriguing and unhappy over Ringo's passing or I'm in a position to steal – certain, steal – to gape what's honest with honest now, and steal to be elated. Jumping up and down elated? No. However OK. Appreciating what is. That I'm in a position to abolish.
So I glimpse at Baer, and marvel at this most practical doggy-accomplice the Universe has talented me. I maintain how powerful I esteem his snuggling with me at night, how enjoyable it is for him to wake me by laying his entrance paws on my chest and licking my face. What a goof ball he is when he runs rings in all places in the lounge sectional, as if on a discover doing laps.
I endure in mind neutral appropriate times with Ringo – how powerful he favored his automotive-rides, how he favored to roll over on his abet and stretch out all 95 pounds of himself for a safe tummy-scratch. How he would tussle with Baer in his younger years, without ever hurting him. How his model of what you abolish with a bunny-rabbit misplaced within the backyard is now to no longer abolish it, but to lick it all over, as if to realize abet it beautiful and unhurt to its "pack."
As sturdy as it is to lose a favored one – animal or human – so long as we are gathered alive, there's something to be grateful for. Something to esteem, something or any individual to dwell for. We don't abet the departed by being depressing, nor does it abolish anything better for those gathered here. That we would possibly per chance presumably moreover simply gathered mourn and grieve, certain, fully, but by no plan to omit that appreciation, of what changed into and is, is what's going to pull us through and onward.
Finally, what's going to Baer's sooner or later original brother desire? A depressing, unlucky household? Or a elated one, desirous to welcome him into the fold.
