asked of then:tan extension. If this were nit I

on longer. than a few weeks. The spirit

unexpected announcement that he was in dti t

day. ' From that, as it would exhibit the
suit of a night's reflection upnn the minds of
his creditors, he would be able to see clea t ,
his chances- of being sustained' in busitteis. 7 rl I
He awaited the hour with neryous'ansiety.-11-
When it arrived, and the few creditors called!
is had assembled, he saw little in their faeo
Ito give him hope. The first who spLke oft
plainly was Elder.
"I gentlemen," he said, firmly, "am tit
posed to all extensions. If a mart cannot 1,
as heCgoes, I think he bad better wind up.' 1,1
"If all do not agree in this matter, it will
be no use to attempt extending Mr: Carlton'
time," remarked one of .the creditors, wht I
thought and felt as did Elder, but was not wil
ling to Come out so plainly.
That is verytrue," said a third. "e,
partial eftension will be of no' use." 0
The heart of poor Carlton almost, L
. ceased I
"Have you any objection to retiring for
few minutes 7" said_N.r. Highland to the debi
" withdraw, certainly," returned Mi.
Carltoneeltd - left the room.
" My own view, gentlemen," said Mr. High
land; " is, that we ought to grant all thatis
asked. Mr. Carlton's business is good; and lie
will get over his present difficulties easily,*
we only assist him a little. We should lie
just, as man towards man ; and this I do nit
think we shall be in this vase, unless we colt
sider Carlton as well as ourselves. Ile is in
honc4 man, and an houest man in 'difficulties
is always entitled to consideration."
" That is all very well. But when a min
gives his note payable at a certain day, lie
ought to be very sure that he will be able (o
!take it up. • Creditors arc entitled to-sonde
consideration as well. as debtors. The cry
poor debtor' is soon raised, but who, I wow
der,' thinks of the poor creditor ? I, for otti,
am not prepiired to extend."
This was said by-Elder.`
" for me," spoke up another, "I never
take but one view of 'matters, like this. JO
think I will do better by renewing, I am ready
!to do so ; if by winding up the party now I. On
do better, I go for winding up. • I have co:0-
fidenet in Carltoe's integrity. I believe he
means well. But can he get through? thatias
the question."
" i believe he can," said Mr. highland.
" And I doubt it," returned Elder. . 4
" Ought we not to- consider him as well is
'ourselves ?" .urged Mr. Highland. -He lt,es
'worked very hard for the last ten years, Os
hard as any one of us, and has been as anxioits
to secure a conneterice for his family as ir e
bare been. We should feel for him al well Ats
for, ourselves. It would be but a trifle fir ps
to lose ail our claims, in comparison to the'4-
teir ruin, to him that would follow out
ate . prosecution of them. We could bear ii.o l
lose ten thousand:dollars apiece, but could
bear the loss of all he has. I hope every ri4ii
here will suffer his better feelings to beeo*te
active in - this matter. Let us think of dus
family. If that will not influence us, lets
think of our own families, and imagine thn
threatened with the same evil that now threet
en the family of Mr. Carlton. It is no 'Hitt

It is no light tfdiag to extinguish the briiirt

In the eager pursuit of wealth men's heaths
become incrusted over, and they seem to Itise
lall regard for each other's personal conditifin.
It requires, something more than usual to brit&
up the inerustatioh. The word ! of Mr. H'
land had the effect to do this with more t n
one of Canton's creditors ; even Elder did Oot
reply to what be said, but this was more ftm
shame than any other feeling. •

A man like Mi. Elder is rarely permitted to
go throtigh life without a practicable conviction
that he is in the hand of We' who governs all
,events. It is rarely that such -a -one does not
become painfully consuiting in the end that hu
man prudence is as nothing.
The first thing that j occurred to check the'
confident spirit or' Mr. Elder, was the-loss of a
ship and cargo under circumstances that gave
the under-writers! a fad plea for not paying
the risk. He sued. and was east. The loss
was twenty-tive thousand,dollars.
A few weeks after, tiews-eame that a slitp
ment to 'the South American coast had result
ed in a loss. From that time every thing;
seemed to go wrong. His -adventures foued-al
glutted market, and his return cargoes a de
pression of prices. If lie held on to a thing-in
the hope of better rates, - prices would go down,
until, in a desperate mnod, tie would Bed ; then
they would go up steadily. The time was
when he confined himself strictly to legitimate
trade,, But a mania t 4 speculation now took
hold of hineand urged him ou to ruin. Ile
even ventured into the bewildering precincts of
the stock markets, lured by the hope 'of splen- .
did results. Here he stood upon ground that
soon erninbled beneath! -his feet.. A loss of
twenty or thirty thousand dollars cured him of
his folly?, and he turned with a sigh to his
counting room, to digest, with care and prudent
forethought, some sate operation in Lis regular
I \•But the true balance of his mind was lost.
He could not consider krith ealradeEs the basi
-1 ness in hand. A false 1:110110:wati the eonse
sequence. Loss instead of profit was the un
fortunate result.
Seven years from teat day Mr. Elder op
psed an arrangement with Mr. Carlton, Which
should regard the debtpr as well as the credit
or, ho himself found it impossible to prociie
for all . bis - heaarayments. For some time he
had kei&his above water by making sac
rifices, put the end of this came.
After; a sleepless night the merchant started
one motining for his store, oppressed with the
sad conViction that before the day closed his
fair fame would be tarnished. As ho walked 1
along Broadway Mr. Carlton chine to his side
with a 4heerful salutation. Mr. C. was now a
large creditor instead of a debtor.. On that
very day, bills in his Ifavor had matured to the
amount of five thbutand dollars ; and these
Elder could not pay.; The recollection of this
made it almost impossible for him to reply•to
the pleasant observations of his companion.
Vividly., as is it had occurred yesterday, came
up before his mind the circumstance that had
transpired a few yea* pre i. usly. lie remem
bered how eagerly !Le had sought, from the
!merest selfish inotiveS, to break down Mr. Carl
ton and throw him helpless upon the world,
Land. how near he was to aecomplis.hing the
merchant's total overthrow. Suet recollections
!drove from his xait:l the hope that for a mo
!meut had pre.sentediitself of enlisting Mr. Call
, ton's good feelings, and securing him as a
friend in the trial through which 'ho was about .
to pass..
Several times during-the walk towards Pearl
street he was on the point of, breaking the mat
ter to-Mr. C. ; 'but either his heart failed him,
or his companion ,Made some remark to which
he was compelled 0 reply. At length they
separaied without any allusion by Mr. Elder
to the subject, on . lribich he was so desirous of
speaking. He had not the courage to utter a
word. -
But this was only postponing. for a very
brief period, the evil day. Several remittances
were anxiously looked for that morning. He
l i
broke the sealin , letter after letter, with
tremb;ing anxiety Alas ! the mail brought
him no aid. • His list hope was gone. Noth
ing now remained or him but to turn his face
bravely to the threatening storm • and bear up
agaii.st its fury.
Fur houruhe debated the question as to what ,
course it wag for him to pursue. At one 1
1 time he thought 4 leaving all in ignorance of
his condition, until the notary's protest should
startle them fronii their ignorance. Then he
thought it would' be best to .noti.y the holders
of papers due on that day that it would not be
taken up. • It.wa.l one o clock be'ore be could I
calmly resolve on What course to take.. Then!
it seemed to him best to give notice of his con-1
dition. He prepaied brief notes to all, but Mr.
Carlton first. His heart failed him when - he
attempted to write his name. Vividly, as if I
it had occurred hilt the day previous, came up
before his mind all the circumstances. attend
ant .upon that geUtleman's appeal to his Bred- , '
itors. His cheekibunted when be remembered
the position he bad assumed in that affair. II
But, even though such were his feelings,•
when be came to! - de.spatch the notes he bad
prepared, he could only find coura g e to send

Elder turned slowly to his desk and took
therefrom sundry notes of hand in his favor at
Various dates from six to twelve months, and
endorsed them payable to Carlton, who intim
ately gave him a check fur eight thousand dol
lars and left the store.
A clerk was instantly despatched to ; the bank,
and then Mr. Elder sunk into a chair, halt Btu
pified. Re could hardly believe his senses un
til the cancelled notes were placed in his bands.
Rebuked and humble in spirit, the anxious
merchant retired from his counting room and
"cought his home. Ills heart felt lighter time

feel its weight ip him bosom. .1n his extremity

asked him for consideration, but asked in
Ou the next morning, Mr. Elder Went to his
place of business with feelings ,but little less
troubled, Can they hid been on the day before.
;His paymehts were lighter, but his means were,
for the first time exhausted. ' The best he
could do would be to borrow; but he already
Oved heavily for borrowed money, and was ru.t
pertain that to go farther was practieable. He
thought of Mr. Garton: but, every, feeling of
;his heart forbade him to seek further aid from.
- I deserve no consideration thCre, and I
cannot ask it," he murmured as hepursued his
way towards his stOre. The f i rst thing that
met his eye on entering his counting room, was
a pile of-ship letter. There had been an ar
rival from alparaiso. He broke, the seal of
the tirst one he took .up, with 'eagerness.—
Thank God!" was- his almost immediate ex
e'aination. It was from one of his captains,
and contained drafts for fifteen thousand dol
lars.. It also informe4 hiin that the ship t.. 4 arah,
commanded by said ; captain, would sail for
home in a week, with - a return cargo of bides
and specie attiountiOg to thirty thousand dol
lars. The voyage had been profitable beyond
expeetati n.
Elder had just finished re.adlng the letter,
when Mr.;Carkon came in. ISeizing the kind
hearted merchant by the hand, sand prossing it
hard,. he said, with einotion4-
" Mr. Carlton, you have sated me ! Ah! sir
—this would be to me a farpeppier moment,
if, sevea years ago, when yogi *ere in trouble,
I I had as generously 'ailed you."
" Let the past sleep in peke," returned Mr.
Carlton. "If fortune hai siiled again, per

The Armenian start-up ForgeFiction writes scripts for films and television series, and pitches them to companies in various countries involved in cinematography.
The uniqueness of the platform is that registered users can write books together.
"Users of our platform have the opportunity to jointly compile a chronology of events, create images and develop them with the help of other platform participants," says start-up co-founder Hrach Toneyan. He adds that the platform mainly produces fiction.
At the moment, 25 books are being written on the website. The first part of the first book will be ready soon, and the platform's authors intend to bring it to the international market.
"When the books are written, ForgeFiction has the right to finalise and put them up for sale, and part of the income will go to users who participated in their creation. The first big book that has a chance to be published is in the science fiction genre. It will be ready in about a month. It will have 300 pages," says Hrach.
At the initial stage, books will be sold on Amazon in the form of electronic texts. These are written in English, as about 80% of users of the platform are English-speaking citizens of other countries.
In spring of this year, the ForgeFiction team received a grant from the EU-SMEDA project for scientific and technological entrepreneurship (EU4Business STEP). The company is also a graduate of the second edition of the Armenia Start-up Academy.
Hrach says that the STEP grant allowed them to put together a team and create the platform. "It was a serious opportunity for us, and at the moment we have an almost completed book that we are preparing for sale. It also allowed us to attract investors. They are already investing in our company."
The team intends to continue to cooperate with major publishers, and hopes to try to write scripts for movies and television shows for big-name production companies.
"We also intend to cooperate with the creators of mobile and video games," says Hrach.
ForgeFiction plans to adapt the platform for French-speaking, German-speaking, Spanish-speaking and Italian-speaking audiences.

Guyana Tourism
The total number of foreign visitors was 286,732 in 2018 based on E/D cards, and the average per person per trip expenditure from the Bureau of Statistics VEMS was (G$222,216 / US$1,064) allows for a simple estimate of US$305 million in foreign visitor expenditures. A conservative estimate can be derived by recognizing that the VEMS provides information only on foreign visitors exiting the country via Cheddi Jagan International Airport. E/D Card data indicates that 81% of the visitors entered the country there, suggesting a total expenditure estimate from this subgroup of foreign visitors of US$250 million. This conservative estimate essentially sets the expenditure of foreign visitors entering the country at other points to zero. This approach stays strictly within the data that we have from the E/D cards and VEMS, but is conservative as the expenditure of people entering the country through points other than the CJIA cannot be zero.
A mid-point estimate can be derived by assuming that the foreign visitors entering/exiting via the Eugene Correia Airport and the land border crossings are mostly from Caribbean and South American countries, respectively. The VEMS data shows that these foreign visitors spend marginally less than the visitors from the US and other developed countries. The resulting estimate of foreign visitor spending is US$300 million. The Bureau of Statistics approved this approach on July 11, 2019.
Based on the Bank of Guyana Annual 2018 report and the estimated figure in 1, tourism is among the top five export earning sectors in Guyana:
Export earning sectors contribute considerably to the economy in terms of economic value, employment, foreign exchange, etc. 228
According to the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC)*, the total contribution of travel and tourism to employment, including jobs indirectly supported by the sector was 22,000 jobs.
(*World Travel & Tourism Council (2018), Travel & Tourism Economic Impact 2018 Guyana)
This percentage was derived using the total estimated contribution of travel and tourism for 2018 and the total GDP of Guyana for 2018 (USD300M/USD3830B)*100
This figure was generated from data on the E/D cards collected from the four main ports of entry (CJIA, EFCIA, Lethem and Moleson Creek). Guyana is poised to attract 500,000+ visitors per annum as soon as 2025.
This figure represents the total visitors who came for holiday for 2018 and was generated the same way as 5 above.
This estimate was derived from data collected throughout 2018 through the Visitor Exit Motivation Survey (VEMS), which is conducted daily by the Bureau of Statistics. The Bureau of Statistics approved the analysis that resulted in this calculation as well as the calculation itself on July 11, 2019.
The United Nations World Tourism Organization's (UNWTO) and their member states have formally recognized the actual and potential contribution of tourism to all 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)*. In addition, Guyana's Green State Development Strategy: Vision 2040 makes reference to the goals particularly SDGs number 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13 and 15.
(*UNWTO (June 2018), Tourism for Development – Volume II, https://sdg.iisd.org/news/unwto-report-links-sustainable-tourism-to-17-sdgs/; and UNWTO and UNDP (May 2018), Tourism and the Sustainable Development Goals – Journey to 2030)
Sustainable tourism helps to protect and preserve our natural wonders, peoples' culture and amazing wildlife. Guyana was recognised as the #1 Ecotourism destination and a Top 10 Sustainable Destination at ITB-Berlin in March 2019, the world's largest travel trade show, and was recognised as the 'Best is Sustainable Tourism' at the 9th Annual LATA Achievement Awards in the United Kingdom in June 2019.
According to WTTC*, travel and tourism investment is expected to increase by GY$7.7B by 2028, 2.9% of total investment.

Dr. Lauren Pearlman joined the history department this fall as an assistant professor. She has a joint appointment with African American Studies. Before coming to UF, she taught at the U.S. Military Academy, Rowan University, and Yale University, where she completed the PhD in 2013. Her teaching and research interests focus on the civil rights movement, emphasizing a long view of the movement and post-era race relations. At West Point, she developed a digital-media primary-document-based reader on the long civil rights movement. Her book Democracy's Capital: Local Protest, National Politics, and the Struggle for Civil Rights in Washington, D.C., is forthcoming with the University of North Carolina Press.
Recently, she agreed to answer some questions for the blog so our history community can get to know her better.
How are you finding life in Gainesville outside the university? Have you discovered a favorite place to spend your time?
Moving to Gainesville from Brooklyn, NY,
was a bigger change than I expected! The pace of life is definitely slower, but I'm actually surprised by how much there is to do around here. Every weekend, my husband, son, and I find ourselves having to pick and choose what to do–from UF sporting events to street festivals and art fairs. People have also been really friendly (another difference from New York!), which has gone a long way to making us feel welcome here.
Now that you are well into your first semester at UF, how are you finding the students compared with other institutions where you taught?
Well no one wears a uniform or calls class to attention, so there are some obvious differences from West Point, where I taught last year! I find students here to be enthusiastic, excited to learn, and willing to take risks. Overall I've been very impressed.
Do you have any particular expectations of students or yourself in your relationship as teacher and mentor with them?
I'm working with a senior thesis writer now and I hope he would agree that my role is to help him succeed without telling him what to do (except when I tell him what to do, but usually that is about keeping him on task, lol). In all seriousness, I do have high expectations for the students I mentor, but only because I trust they can meet them. And as the students in my Civil Rights Movement class know, when you put in the work, there's also a lot of fun to be had!
What type of graduate students in terms of research interests would you like to attract to UF?
I'm excited to work with students who are already attracted to our faculty's strengths and expertise in 20th century American history. But I would be especially excited to see students come work on projects related to modern African American history, mass incarceration, and/or the long civil rights movement. Florida has a rich and fairly under-explored history in both civil rights and law and order that is begging to be told.
Can you tell us something about a current research project?
Sure–I'm currently revising my manuscript for publication with UNC Press and have been looking at how some of Lyndon Johnson's Great Society programs were both implemented and received locally in Washington, D.C. Specifically, there was a controversial community policing program that the Office of Economic Opportunity funded in the city, and I'm trying to figure out how different segments of black Washington reacted to it. There's a new body of scholarship that argues that middle class African Americans–not just whites–fought for more punitive crime programs, and I'm curious if black Washingtonians were the exception or not during the late 1960s and early 1970s.
What sort of undergraduate and graduate courses do you plan to offer in the future?
I plan on teaching a variety of courses for undergraduate and graduate students broadly related to African American history, post-1945 American history, social movements, and law and order in American cities.
Do you have in new ones you are currently developing?
Next year I'll be teaching a post-1945 U.S. history class along with a class on race and the criminal justice system. I'm toying with developing a class on the militarization of U.S. cities, a class about domestic war and society (i.e. the war on poverty, the war on drugs, etc), and a class about veterans in America.
What courses will you be teaching in the spring (or fall if you are on leave in the spring)?
I'll be teaching the second half of the U.S. history survey and a class called Race in the Post-Civil Rights Era next fall.
Do you have anything in particular about yourself that you would like to share with the UF history community? Hobbies? Past-time interests? Family life?
Well I'm having a baby at the end of the semester, so I'm about to lose any free time I had! But I do love running and hiking and am looking forward to doing these activities outside since I'm used to having to be cooped up indoors for most of November-March.

Tesla, Two Chinese Firms Show Interest In India's Rs 50,000 Crore Plan To Build Six Lithium-Ion Battery 'Gigafactories'
Elon Musk's Tesla and two Chinese firms, Contemporary Amperex Technology and BYD Auto Company, have shown interest in being part of the Narendra Modi government's plan to invest around Rs 50,000 crore to build mega factories to produce lithium-ion batteries in the country, business daily Mint has reported.
The programme, which is being managed by government think-tank NITI Aayog, has received approval from the Expenditure Finance Committee and, according to reports, is likely to be placed before the cabinet soon.
The plan is aimed at securing India's energy needs as the government pushes the adoption of Electric Vehicles (EVs) in the country. To achieve this, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman had unveiled fiscal incentives for electric vehicle (EV) buyers and a favourable regulatory environment for the nascent industry in the budget.
To lower the cost of manufacturing for the industry, she announced customs duty exemption on lithium–ion cells, most of which are imported from China. Income tax exemption and indirect tax benefits were announced for the makers of critical EV components like solar electric charging infrastructure and lithium storage batteries.
To attract buyers, she announced a rebate of up to Rs 1.5 lakh for the buyers on interest paid on loans to purchase the vehicles. The second phase of the Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Hybrid and Electric Vehicles scheme, or FAME-II, has also been implemented with an outlay of Rs 10,000 crore.
To power these EVs, conservative estimates suggest, India will need six gigawatt-scale (10GWh each) facilities by the year 2025 and at least 12 by 2030. NITI Aayog's "base scenario", according to Mint, envisions 11 such factories by 2025 and 24 by 2030.
The government has decided that the programme will be technology-agnostic, which means market factors such as price and demand will dictate the selection of technology that is employed by the participating players.
The Cabinet is likely to approve the programme by September. Next, the government will float international tenders and plans to award the tenders by February 2020.
These mega battery storages will also be part of the electric grid. India has already become a leading producer of clean energy from renewable sources such as solar and wind. However, the intermittent nature of electricity produced from these sources makes the development of storage infrastructure necessary.
Battery forms the most important part of an EV. The amount of energy that can be stored in the battery determines the range of an EV. Battery alone can form up to 40 per cent of the cost of an EV in many cases.
With state-led initiatives, China has managed to dominate the supply of this critical equipment and the elements required to make it. Currently, China is producing at least two-thirds of the world's lithium-ion batteries.
China's BYD, one of the many firms to have expressed initial interest to be part of the NITI Aayog's battery programme, is the world's largest maker of electric vehicles.

God, Hope & Helping Others
We all experience some degree of low energy. Sometimes they are accompanied with chronic fatigue, problems sleeping, high blood pressure, unstable blood sugar, digestive problems, muscle and joint pain, headaches and weight gain are symptoms of an overworked and possibly toxic overload in your liver and kidneys.
These symptoms are your body's way of talking to you and I encourage you to listen to what it has to say.
Prescription drug and alcohol use, pesticides and chemicals in your air and water and a high-fat, junk food diet all wreak havoc on your liver and kidneys and cause serious health problems. To make matters even worse, most doctors don't even think of checking your liver and kidney health when they treat you. So the damage continues until one day you're facing a fate almost worse than death—non-functioning liver or kidneys.
Your liver is that "often-forgotten" four-pound organ located on the right side of your body that performs more than 500 bodily functions and chemical reactions every single day to keep you alive. In fact, your liver is so important, medical experts agree that if your body was a corporation, your liver would be the president.
Your liver is under constant abuse from over-the-counter and prescription medications, air and water pollution, alcohol use, chemical food additives, stress hormones and a host of other toxic weapons that are out to destroy it.
And the fact is that if your liver breaks down, then your body breaks down and you could die.
Your liver removes toxins and impurities from your body before they can cause you harm. But there's a very good chance your liver is not performing at its maximum ability. And if you're over age 40, you may already have the beginnings of a sluggish liver that can lead to an exhausted body.
In fact, by the time you reach age 40, the tubes and ducts leading to and from your liver can start to get clogged with undigested fats, environmental toxins, gallstones, scar tissue and metabolic wastes. And by age 50 you may only be producing a quarter of the bile your body needs to break down the fats from all the foods in your diet.
When your liver can't make enough bile to remove the toxins, it encapsulates and stores the toxic materials, which will affect and harm your body for years to come. Some of these toxins become hard mineralized stones stored in your gall bladder—commonly known as gallstones.
As time goes by these stones accumulate and can block normal bile flow from your gallbladder to your liver. So if you have gallstones, you have a clear warning of a possibly serious liver problem.
But you can improve the condition of your liver with simple and natural ways that safely help remove dangerous toxins from your liver, unclog your liver cells and boost your liver function.
There are herbs, antioxidants, super-nutrients and amino acids that can help you detoxify and promote proper liver function. Some of these are milk thistle, soy lecithin and artichoke leaf. Other nutrients such as n-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), alpha lipoic acid (ALA) and trimethylglycine can also help contribute to a well-functioning liver and a healthy body. I also strongly recommend being tested for hepatitis C for anyone that has had surgery where you needed blood, used or shared needles, sex with untested partners. Hepatitis C is more widespread than most people would imagine.
According to Dr. Eugene Schiff (University of Miami), the Hepatitis C virus (HCV) emerged in the U.S. population beginning in the 1960s, related to blood transfusion and injection drug use. The extent of the problem was only apparent after 1990 when reliable HCV blood tests first became available. Studies indicate that over the first 20 years of chronic HCV infection, 20% of chronically infected patients will develop cirrhosis, and many of those will progress to liver cancer. HCV-associated end-stage liver disease is a leading indication for liver transplantation in the USA and the developed western world.
Currently, it is estimated there are about 180 million people worldwide who are infected with HCV, 4 million of those are in the United States. The prevalence seems to be higher in Eastern Europe than in Western Europe. In industrialized countries, HCV accounts for 20% of cases of acute hepatitis, 70% of cases of chronic hepatitis, 40% of cases of end-stage cirrhosis, 60% of cases of hepatocellular carcinoma and 30-40% of liver transplants. The incidence of new symptomatic infections of HCV has been estimated to be 13 cases/100,000 persons annually. For every one person that is infected with the AIDS virus, there are more than four infected with HCV. The CDC (Center For Disease Control) estimates that there are up to 26,000 new HCV infections in the U.S. every year and that Hepatitis C causes 10,000 to 12,000 deaths each year.
Over the next 10-20 years chronic HCV is predicted to become a major burden on the health care system as patients who are currently asymptomatic with relatively mild disease progress to end-stage liver disease and develop hepatocellular carcinoma. Predictions in the USA indicate that there will be a 60% increase in the incidence of cirrhosis, a 68% increase in hepatoma incidence, a 279% increment in incidence of hepatic decompensation, a 528% increase in the need for transplantation, and a 223% increase in liver death rate.
Current medical treatment for HCV is limited to pegylated interferon combination therapy. This therapy is effective in less than 50% of cases of HCV genotype 1 (the most common genotype in North America). Two companies, Roche and Schering, have their own FDA approved versions. Each claims their formulation is superior for treating Hepatitis C. Your doctor will likely recommend one or the other (doctors have no other medicine to offer to treat this disease). You can find more information about each of these drug protocols at this website and elsewhere on the internet.
There are also natural approaches for dealing with HCV. The credible ones focus on protecting and supporting the liver and keeping the immune system healthy. There is some proof that you can use natural means to help you live a long and relatively healthy life with this virus and die of some other cause (preferably old age). There is no natural cure for HCV, and if anyone claims they have one, they are lying. It is as simple as that.
Dubious treatments and supposed cures for HCV are being sold by charlatans and rip off artists. You need to be discerning when considering alternative therapies to help you deal with HCV. Look for scientific clinical validation. Objective third-party proof of effectiveness and safety is essential. We are involved with one product we think very highly of called Maximum Milk Thistl. It is a high quality medical milk thistle with scientific validation and a very reasonable price.

Mega project brings water from south to Beijing
Updated: 2014-12-27 18:26
BEIJING - The water from a south China river flowed into Beijing on Saturday after a journey of over 1,200 kilometers along the South-to-North Water Diversion Project.
It took 15 days for the water to arrive in Beijing from its source -- the Hanjiang River, a tributary of the Yangtze River, China's largest waterway.
Saturday's delivery marks the completion of the middle route's first stage, construction of which began exactly 12 years ago.
The project will have significant economic, social and environmental impacts, said E Jingping, chief of the State Council's South-to-North Water Diversion Project Commission Office.
Next year, about 800 million cubic meters of water will be sent to Beijing from the south.
Beijing, on average, consumes 3.6 billion cubic meters of water annually and the project will eventually deliver 1 billion cubic meters of water to Beijing. The water resource per capita in Beijing is one eightieth of the world average.
The project will alleviate the pressure Beijing faces to meet demand, said Sun Guosheng, director of the project's Beijing office, but the project would not completely solve Beijing's water issues. Additional measures must be taken.
Dean of Beijing Normal University's College of Water Sciences, Xu Xinyi, said Beijing and other places along the project's route must promote water conservation in industry, agriculture and at the municipal-administration level.
Similarly, Zhang Tong, deputy chief of the Beijing Institute of Water, urged the city to place restrictions on industries that require large quantities of water.
Beijing Mayor Wang Anshun promised citywide water conservation promotion efforts to limit wastefulness.
The middle route's first stage starts at the Danjiangkou Reservoir in the central province of Hubei.
The middle route will supply 9.5 billion cubic meters of water annually to northern regions, including the cities of Beijing and Tianjin, and provinces of Henan and Hebei.

When was the last time you failed to wrap your head around an unbelievable performance statistic? Or, have you become so accustomed to reading silly numbers that it's now rare for anything to make you stop and think? Personally, not since discovering that the McLaren F1 could hit 60mph in 3.2sec – a surreal time recorded by this magazine in 1994 – have I struggled for words.
That was, at least, until a moment ago, when 37-year-old German engineer Réne Wollmann explained that the Battista – yet another eye-wateringly expensive entry on the rapidly lengthening 'hypercar' roster, with deliveries due in 2020 – will almost halve the legendary McLaren's sprint time, courtesy of 1900bhp and 1700lb ft from four electric motors.
Admittedly, an FIA World Rallycross Audi A1 will do the same, but this is where the truly mind-bending stat comes in. Here it is: stamp on the accelerator pedal at 80mph and the Battista will accumulate speed at the same rate as a Tesla Model S P100D does when launched from standstill. The American car, remember, reaches 60mph in 2.5 seconds. In fact, it's so pulverisingly quick in 'Ludicrous' mode that footage of passengers attempting to suppress laughter, tears and possibly other bodily fluids has become a YouTube phenomenon. Presumably, the Battista will demolish it for straight-line pace, despite weighing more than two tonnes.
It's hard to imagine how that sort of paradigm-shifting acceleration will feel. Multi-millionaire collectors who nowadays don't open their wallets for less than 700bhp won't have experienced anything like it either, which is why – so the official line goes – Pininfarina is running pre-delivery workshops like the one Autocar is attending at the Circuit de Calafat.

I have made this recipe twice for company and both times it was a hit. I cooked sweet Italian sausage with one chopped onion, which really made it extra tasty. I also cut up the stewed tomatoes to avoid such big chunks. Definitely a keeper!

Pretty basic recipe. I thought 2 tablespoons of oregano seemed like quite a lot and cut it to 1 tablespoon. Oregano was still overwhelming. Next time I will cut it to 1-2 tsp. Maybe my family just aren't oregano lovers, but it would have been inedible with the full 2 tablespoons. I am assuming it is a typo and should be tsp.

This is almost the exact recipe that I use except instead of cottage cheese I use ricotta and I use crushed tomatoes in place of the stewed ones. Everyone asks me for my recipe and I take it to all covered dish dinners, super bowl parties, etc. Always come home with an empty dish.

This was easy to make and a very large meal! I am going to be eating it for a few days. Next time I would probably cut the stewed tomatoes into smaller pieces, but that is because my husband isn't a big fan of big pieces of tomato.

Debt Consolidation
One of the most common causes of a bad credit rating is having to deal with a large number of relatively small debts. It can be difficult to keep track of what you should be paying to whom, what you've paid, and how much it's all costing you in interest charges.
Not only that, but smaller debts such as credit cards, store cards, catalogue accounts, etc, usually have a much higher rate of interest than a single loan for a larger amount.
Pay off your debts
By taking out a debt consolidation loan (often secured on your home, but not always), you can pay off all your debts and only have to deal with a single payment each month.
You will also benefit from a much reduced interest rate in most cases, meaning that you either have more disposable income or you can pay off your debt quicker.
Debt consolidation loans can be arranged by almost all personal loans companies, and as the whole point of this kind of loan is to simplify complicated and expensive credit situations, the lenders will usually be sympathetic to applications made by those with less than perfect credit.

This winter and spring I had trouble with left hip. I am now running regularly but am careful to keep my pace down, as I had trouble when sprinting. Now I am especially enjoying fast improvement and easy trail runs in Chain O'Lakes State Park, which has about 22 km (14 miles) of hilly forested trails. I aim to race again in late summer and fall. I also bought a Zero Runner (Octane) for cross training, which should help me get in more low stress miles.

First race in two years, second place in age group
Bieganie 0:24'43.1 Średnie tętno 165 ud./min, 5,05 km
5 km road race. Beat my goal of under 25 min. I was 351 of 900 or so overall and 2nd in the male 65-69 class. Not much speed or interval training yet. HR very high--maybe because of excitement. Lower legs sore because I am not used to running on hard roads. Training for 9 weeks since hip injury. I will go back to slower trail running with maybe one fast training session per week.
Good interval workout
Bieganie 0:29'03.5 Średnie tętno 147 ud./min, 5,97 km
Intervals, 1 mile, 3x 800, several 500 m--HR very low and felt very good, since I am only 6 weeks since I started running again after being off for 5 weeks with a fractured tow. I am surprised at how fast I can run with a hard but not all out effort.
First run in 15 months!
Biegi przełajowe 0:31'51.6 Średnie tętno 150 ud./min, 5,04 km
First run in over 15 months due to injury and neurological dysfunction. Did a little treadmill jogging to get my legs and ready. Great, since a month again I doubted whether I would ever be able to run again. 21oC, 98% humidity. COL, moderate hills

Beat Mark and Jordan but about 5 s behind Bruce K. Very even pace with faster last 600 m. Not sure which race is next, but the goal will be under 23:00 min for 5 k. My top speed is faster than last year.

1 mile on treadmill, 800 m hard on 200 m track, 4 x 400 m hard with 2 minute rest, then hard 200 m, then tempo running. Felt good at 5 k pace and faster. Not sure why max HR is so low. Hope that I can race at HR = 170 when in shape for speed.
intervals from 20 k to 1500 m pace
Bieganie 0:34'36.2 Średnie tętno 147 ud./min, 6,88 km
Treadmill, 2 x 1 mile (20 k to 10 k pace) + 2 x half mile (10 k pace) + 2 x 400 meters (1500 m pace). then 400 meters on 8% incline (800m effort), them moderate running. HR very low; moderately hard workout.

long (century) bike ride
Kolarstwo 5:33'18 Średnie tętno 141 ud./min, 160,2 km
Hancock Horizontal Hundred--maybe the flattest century in the country. Nice conditions, temp 15-20 oC, mostly cloudy, not much wind. Peg was sore from a run yesterday and that slowed us down. Toward end, I was riding very hard at HR = 140. I am ticked off--the download failed and now the programs won't let me enter the move manually
