Convenor: Eve Hamilton, tel: 0161 281 9117; email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Venue and Time: We meet every Thursday at St Paul's Community Centre, Manchester Road, Walkden from 2pm-4pm, and break for a tea and biscuits.
The Bridge Group is very much in demand and you may have to join a waiting list before getting a place. Nevertheless, if you are interested, please contact Eve.
Learn the basics or just play. Bridge is not just a game for the intellectual. If you have played any game which takes tricks (Whist, Nap, Solo, etc) you have made a good start.

Living with Wildlife – Skunks
by Emily Cook | Wildlife Fact Sheets | July 8, 2018
In an effort to coexist with wildlife, consider the enormous hardships these intelligent and fascinating wild species encounter because so much of their habitat has been destroyed. Each year they are forced into closer contact with humans and must compete with us for food, shelter and space. With a little understanding, patience and a few precautions and common sense steps, we can all enjoy the wonderfully interesting wild animals who share our backyards and cities.
Skunks are shy animals, known for their offensive odour and distinctive black and white markings. They are nocturnal animals but may occasionally be active during the day.
Skunks can be found in their natural habitats of forest borders, brushy areas, and grassy fields. Skunks are burrowing animals. In urban areas, they are often found under buildings, porches and in culverts.
Skunks, like raccoons, are omnivores. Their diet consists mainly of insects, but also includes mice and other small mammals, eggs, fruits, nuts, vegetation, carrion, and garbage. This varied diet is one of the reasons that skunks have adapted so well to living in close proximity to humans.
Skunks breed in late winter to early spring and usually give birth in May or June. They have between three-to-10 young per litter and the young remain in the den for six-to-eight weeks before venturing out with their mother.
Common questions:
How can I get rid of a skunk that has taken up residence under my porch/shed?
If this problem has arisen in the months of May to July the skunk is most likely a mother with young. In this case we encourage the homeowner to be tolerant and patient. Young do not leave the den until they are six-to-eight weeks of age. No exclusion methods should be put in place until the homeowner notices the young leaving the den. Homeowners should also not attempt exclusion in the winter months because it is a difficult time of year for the skunk to find an alternate den site and food sources. If the skunk is unable to find food and shelter, then the winter weather will result in a cruel demise. The best time to exclude skunks is late summer or early fall. The most effective steps involve using deterrent methods to encourage the skunk to move and then preventing future access.
When dealing with skunks, noise and light are highly effective deterrent measures. Female skunks select den sites that are quiet and dark because they offer her a sense of security for her young. Therefore introducing noise and light to the site will encourage her to seek an alternate den site. Place a battery-powered radio tuned to an all-talk station near the den. You can also place a battery-powered light shining towards the den, and go out several times a day and make noise. These methods will disturb the skunk and make her feel less secure and more likely to move out.
The most effective exclusion technique is the installation of an L-shaped galvanized screen around the perimeter of the porch or shed but leaving the entrance/exit hole open. To do this dig a one inch deep by one inch wide trench around the perimeter and place the screen in the trench to form a backwards 'L'. The base of the 'L' should be at least eight inches wide. Fit the screen tightly against the building then fill the trench in with dirt.
To determine if the skunk is still using the den, place a ball of newspaper in the entrance/exit or cover the hole loosely with dirt. If the newspaper or dirt is moved then the skunk is still residing in the den and the deterrent techniques above should be continued. If the dirt or newspaper is not disturbed for several days you can take steps described above to permanently seal the entrance. IF YOU SEE A SKUNK PACING AND DIGGING FRANTICALLY TO GAIN ACCESS TO THE DEN, ASSUME THERE ARE YOUNG INSIDE AND IMMEDIATELY UNSEAL THE ENTRANCE HOLE.
I have a skunk trapped in my window well. What should I do? Slowly and carefully lower a rough board into the window well, at a gentle slope to serve as a ramp. The skunk can use this to climb out of the well. Keep people and pets away from the area and the skunk will use the ramp to escape. To prevent this situation from arising again the homeowner should place a tight-fitting cover over all window wells around the house or set up ramps in each window well so skunks can escape. If the skunk appears to have injured itself, do not assist the skunk in escaping until you have contacted your local Ontario SPCA Branch, affiliated Humane Society or a licensed wildlife rehabilitator to determine whether rehabilitation is required.
My dog/I got sprayed by a skunk. Do you have any suggestions to get rid of the stench?
Skunks employ warning signs before they spray, such as stamping their front feet, fluffing their fur, and raising their tail. However, if you are unable to avoid being sprayed by a skunk, there are several solutions that can be used to help the smell fade; however, only time can permanently eliminate the odour. Here are some suggestions:
- Diluted vinegar solution
- Tomato juice
- Carbolic soap (safe to use on skin and clothes)
- Toothpaste
- Commercial products (shampoos for animals can be purchased at vet clinics)
If you or your dog got sprayed in the eyes – immediately flush with cool water. Skunk spray in the eyes is painful and irritating, but it will not cause blindness. If irritation does not subside, seek medical advice.
Wish to thank everyone involved
I wish to thank everyone involved in the care and rescue of animals, especially volunteers.

Can I Trademark a Made-Up Word?
You can absolutely trademark a made-up word so long as you are using that made-up word to brand your products and services. In fact, made-up words are generally considered to be some of the strongest and most protectable trademarks, since the made-up words used for your products and services have no meaning outside of your branding. As with all other trademarks, trademarking a made-up word does not protect your made-up word from use by people in conversation, and you have to be careful that your made-up word does not change from a noun to a verb through common use. When that happens, you could end up losing the right to use your trademark due to the word becoming generic for the product or service you offer—commonly referred to as genericide.
If you are using a made-up word to market and sell your products or services, contact us today to speak with trademark attorney Eric Norton to discuss the importance of trademarking your brand's name.
Trademark Registration by The Law Office of Eric Norton
Personal Service
All work for our clients is personally done by trademark attorney Eric Norton. No paralegals. No secretaries. No associates.
Flat Fees
Our trademark registration services are just one flat fee (plus the applicable government filing fees) so you always know what you're getting up front.
Easy as Pie
You tell us what to trademark, provide us proof of use (or your intent to use), and we do the rest so you can get back to running your business in no time.

Like many consumers, I have a goal when I enter the grocery store: buy healthy foods without breaking the bank. For the most part, choosing nutritious foods is easy. I stock up on fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean protein and nonfat dairy products. But there is one gray area: organic.
Organic foods often cost a good bit more than their conventional counterparts. But are organic products really better for you? And are they really worth the higher price tag? These are questions I ask myself on every grocery store trip.
What Does "Organic" Mean?
Organic foods are made without using conventional pesticides, fertilizers made with synthetic ingredients or sewage sludge, bioengineering or ionizing radiation. The word "organic" means that the product has met certain standards set by the USDA:
100% organic: The food has no artificial ingredients, and can use the organic seal
Organic: The food has at least 95 percent organic ingredients, and can use the organic seal.
Made with organic ingredients: The food contains at least 70 percent organic ingredients, but it cannot use the organic seal.
Meat, poultry, eggs, and dairy with the organic label come from animals that have not received antibiotics or growth hormones.
Farms must meet USDA criteria before they can become certified organic growers. Not all farmers can afford this certification, though. Organic farming practices are more expensive, which is why organic foods come with a higher price tag. If you have any questions about a local farm's practice, talk to the farmer. He or she can give you more details than any label can.
Better For Health?
Some experts believe that consuming organic foods instead of conventional foods may be healthier, but the results are inconclusive. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) "makes no claims that organic food is safer or more nutritious than conventionally produced foods."
A large study looked at scientific articles from the past 50 years and compared the nutrient content of organic vs. conventional foods. The researchers found that both organic and conventional products were comparable when it comes to nutrition. And just this month, a Stanford study concluded that eating organic foods over conventional products offers little to no health benefits.
As far as pesticides go, keep in mind that all organic and conventional foods sold in the U.S. don't exceed government safety thresholds. This means that eating foods grown with pesticides shouldn't harm your health. Just be sure to rinse all produce under running water before eating it.
Should I Go Organic?
The decision to buy organic foods is a personal one. Know that there's more to having good nutrition than buying organic or not. Eating fresh fruits and vegetables — whether they be conventional or organic — instead of processed foods is a great way to enhance your health.
If you're thinking about going organic, the "dirty dozen" is a good place to start. The Environmental Working Group encourages people to choose the organic versions of fruits and vegetables in the dirty dozen because produce on this list has the highest amount of pesticide residue: apples, celery, bell peppers, peaches, strawberries, nectarines, grapes, spinach, lettuce, cucumbers, blueberries and potatoes.
You can save money on organic products by shopping at local farmers' markets. Produce and other goods at farmers' markets tend to cost less than food sold in grocery stores. Eating foods when they are in season in your area can also save money.
Do you buy organic? Why or why not? I'm going to start opting for organic when it comes to the dirty dozen.

Fast Retailing, the parent company of Uniqlo, GU, Theory and J Brand, announced that the accounts of customers on their Uniqlo Japan and GU Japan online were accessed by hackers. The company broke the news on their website via a press release.
At present, Fast Retailing has determined that a total of 461,091 unauthorized logins occurred between April 23 and May 10, by means of list type account hacking. A police report has been filed with the Tokyo Metropolitan Police. A total of 461,091 unauthorized logins to registered accounts on the Uniqlo Japan and GU Japan online stores were reported, with Fast Retailing not ruling out the possibility of there being more as the investigation continues.
Potentially accessed customer information includes customer names, customer addresses, customer phone numbers, email addresses, gender, date of birth, purchase history, clothing measurements, and customer partial credit card information. The company investigated, and confirmed that unauthorized logins had been attempted by external parties between April 23 and May 10.
Currently, Fast Retailing has identified the origin of the communication from which the unauthorized logins were attempted and has blocked access, and is strengthening monitoring of other access points. On May 13, the company disabled the passwords for the 461,091 user IDs that had been potentially accessed, and is sending individual emails to each person affected, requesting that they reset their password.
Hacking has become a concern for retailers as reports of data breaches are becoming a more than occasional occurrence. Consumers are urged to use different passwords per website to make it more difficult for hackers to compromise their information. Retailers are also taking added cyber security to make date breaches more difficult, such as blocking bot traffic.

One of the first steps in your Food Safety Management System (FSMS) implementation project is to compare your current FSMS to the requirements of the FSSC 22000 Code. This is most commonly called a Gap Analysis.
The most important tool for the Gap Analysis is the Audit Checklist. This is a list of the requirements in the code, written in question format. The auditor will use this list to compare your current system with the requirements of the FSSC 22000 Code.
Schedule the audit ahead of time, so you can inform employees about the Gap Analysis. Allow enough time to do an in-depth audit. The more information you can provide the more efficient and effective your project will be.
When the audit has been completed, meet with the auditors to summarize the results. These results will be transferred to task lists for the implementation. This meeting should be held shortly after the audit, so that information is fresh in the auditors' memory.
Review the project plan:
The audit schedule
Follow the schedule that you have prepared. Go into each area of the facility to evaluate the current quality system.
Summarize the audit findings in the form of a task list. You will usually identify several categories of tasks.
Use our detailed audit checklist and training for an effective Gap Analysis.
Self-paced online training for the FSSC 22000 Food Safety Team Leader. Includes training on the requirements and implementation. Print certificate of completion.
If you plan to conduct Third Party Audits, you will need Lead Assessor/Lead Auditor Training.

Following through on their theories.
I'm skeptical about these theories. But if the HBD faction of Der Movement believes all of it, then shouldn't they stop eschewing those (allegedly) more ethnocentric Europeans (e.g., dumb greasy swarthoids and brutal slant-eyed slavoids), and ease off on the affirmative action program for their (allegedly) more altruistically universalist co-ethnics? Wouldn't a more even-handed and merit-based approach to Der Movement help stiffen White resistance to the machinations of the multiculturalist globalists, assuming the theories of the HBD faction is correct?

How Does African Mango Help You Lose Weight?
Ever since African Mango was introduced on the Dr. Oz show, it has become one of the most talked about ingredients in the weight loss industry. And although many people testify that it will help with weight loss, the question is, how does it help you lose weight?
1. Helps You Burn Fat
The African Mango, or Irvingia Gabonensis fruit, has been used by local Africans for years for its health benefits, specifically as a fat burner. African Mango helps boost the metabolism to help your body digest food better, and helping your body burn stored fats.
2. Appetite Suppressant
Most weight loss pills will act as an appetite suppressant, but the Irvingia ingredient naturally tricks your body into thinking that it is full. It does this through regulating the leptin levels in your body, which is the hormone that tells your body it is hungry. By suppressing your appetite, you eat less and allow yourself to lose weight naturally.
3. Slower Digestion
The longer food stays in your stomach, the longer your body stays full. African Mango products are usually taken before meals, and the active ingredients help your body to delay the processes of gastric emptying. This helps you feel fuller for longer, getting rid of many of the cravings that lead to weight gain.
Many studies have been done on African Mango to show that it is more than just mental trickery. In every study done, at least one group simply used a placebo, to make sure that the Irvingia ingredient was producing genuine results. In each study done, the placebo groups saw little or no weight loss results, while those using African Mango showed significan weight loss.
If you are looking for a weight loss product containing African Mango, make sure to check for Irvingia, or Irvingia Gabonensis, since this is the actual ingredient. There are many products out there claiming to be African Mango weight loss pills, yet they are without the real Irvingia ingredient. Be sure to check for this.
The best part about Irvingia Gabonensis is that it is totally side-effect free. Many people have experienced the weight loss benefits of the African Mango. If you have tried an African Mango product, please share your experience with us below!
the mango fruit
Why don't you people just eat the fruit from the produce instead of wolfing pills down your throats and wastinmg your money? The fruit hasn't been chemiocally manipulated like the mango pills you all boast about. If you can't find the fruit, grow mango when you find the seeds (which are edible)in your gardens. Stop being like I used to be...attached to weight loss pills.
And do you ever notice that these pilss smell like bug sprsys?
This product flat out works!
Love this product, and have been using it for about 5 weeks now. Amazing results with more to come. One thing to consider though is making sure you take the right formula/compound of african mango.
It's not a trick
Because the C-reactive protein blocks leptin in the bloodstream to reach the brain, the brain doesn't receive the feeling of fullness. That's why people tend to eat too much till their stomach explode - it's the only tell that you are full. African mango blocks C-reactive ( down-regulates its level) so the brain receives the right amount of leptin levels. Now you get the feeling of fullness. Personally i don't think it's a trick, it's just how our bodies are supposed to act.
Thermobol Review
African mango is a great natural alternative to diet pills. I think that nowadays, we should focus on natural ingredients instead of relying on human-created pills to make our body slim and fit My blog: Thermobol review

Blood of Others
by Rick Mofina
Blood of Others received one of the world's top literary prizes for crime fiction, the 2003 Arthur Ellis Award, given by the Crime Writers of Canada for Best Novel. In his praise of the book, James Patterson, the #1 Worldwide Bestselling Author, said Blood of Others, was: "Tense, realistic, and scary in all the right places."
The disappearance and murder of a lonely San Francisco insurance clerk puts a relentless crime reporter and legendary homicide cop on separate tracks in their pursuit of a killer.
The suspect lures solitary women out of their quiet worlds and into his nightmare as he races the clock and travels the globe searching for the one woman who will forgive the unforgivable.
In the course of a widening investigation, Olivia Grant, a shy gift store sales manager who aches to escape her painful solitude, meets Ben Wyatt, an outcast San Francisco cop on the case, Wyatt is a man gripped with self-doubt over the shooting of his former partner.
Blood of Others is a study of loneliness and human frailties; a story steeped in terrifying suspense that threatens to destroy the lives of those drawn into it as it rockets to a heart-pounding conclusion.

SAN FRANCISCO — A federal appeals court became the first in the nation to rule that prospective jurors may not be excluded because of their sexual orientation, a decision that expands juror protections beyond race and gender and provides legal ammunition to challenge laws that limit gay rights.
SAN FRANCISCO — A federal appeals court became the first in the nation to rule that prospective jurors may not be excluded because of their sexual orientation, a decision that expands juror protections beyond race and gender and provides legal ammunition to challenge laws that limit gay rights.
The sweeping, unanimous decision Tuesday by a three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals overturned a mixed jury verdict in an antitrust case involving an AIDS drug. The 9th Circuit said the case would have to be retried because an obviously gay juror was unjustifiably excluded from the jury.
California state courts already prohibit the striking of jurors based on sexual orientation. Tuesday's landmark ruling extended the restriction to federal courts in California and courts in eight other Western states, lawyers said.
The decision will also make it harder to justify laws that treat gays differently from others, including bans on same-sex marriage, lawyers said. A challenge to Nevada's marriage law is already pending in the 9th Circuit, and gays are fighting marriage bans in trial courts in Oregon, Idaho and Arizona.
When a law discriminates on the basis of sexual orientation, it must be closely evaluated to "ensure that our most fundamental institutions neither send nor reinforce messages of stigma or second-class status," Judge Stephen Reinhardt wrote for the court. The panel said excluding gay jurors violated their constitutional right to equal protection under the law.
Gay rights activists applauded the ruling and predicted that it would help them win marriage rights in other Western states besides California, where same-sex marriage was reinstated last summer.
"This is really a very big deal," said Jon W. Davidson, legal director of Lambda Legal, a gay rights advocacy group. "It is likely to have a significant impact on other cases."
David Codell, constitutional litigation director for the National Center for Lesbian Rights, said the decision would make it "exceedingly difficult" for states to justify discriminating against gays in all sorts of contexts.
The ruling came in a lawsuit filed by pharmaceutical company SmithKline Beecham Corp., now GlaxoSmithKline, against Abbott Laboratories. The case involved a decision by Abbott to raise the price of an AIDS drug, a move that infuriated the gay community. A lawyer for Abbott used a peremptory challenge during the 2011 trial to strike a man who had revealed that he had a male partner and had friends with HIV. SmithKline challenged the removal as discriminatory.
The Abbott lawyer said he had "no idea" whether the man was gay but declined to provide another reason for the strike after the trial judge accepted it.
On appeal, Abbott provided several nondiscriminatory reasons for excluding the man, including the fact that he was a computer technician for the 9th Circuit and knew many lawyers. But the 9th Circuit noted that two lawyers were permitted to serve as jurors and called Abbott's reasons "pretextual."
After a four-week trial, the jury largely decided in favor of Abbott but awarded GlaxoSmithKline $3.5 million in damages on a contract claim. Abbott appealed the contract award, and GlaxoSmithKline cross-appealed, contending that a new trial was warranted because Abbott unconstitutionally struck a juror based on sexual orientation.
"Jury service is one of the most important responsibilities of an American citizen," Reinhardt wrote, agreeing with GlaxoSmithKline. "It gives gay and lesbian individuals a means of articulating their values and a voice in resolving controversies that affect their lives as well as the lives of all others."
The court said that gay and lesbian jurors will not be obligated to reveal their sexual orientation, but if they do, they cannot be struck from a panel because of it. The ruling expanded the protections of a 1986 Supreme Court ruling, Batson vs. Kentucky, that barred peremptory challenges based on race. The prohibition was later extended to gender.
"Permitting a strike based on sexual orientation would send the false message that gays and lesbians could not be trusted to reason fairly on issues of great import to the community or the nation," wrote Reinhardt, a President Jimmy Carter appointee who was joined by Judge Mary M. Schroeder, another Carter appointee, and Judge Marsha S. Berzon, a President Bill Clinton appointee.
Lambda's Davidson said he did not know how often gay prospective jurors were removed, although the issue has arisen in about half a dozen cases across the country. Lawyers are entitled to strike jurors without a reason but must provide a nondiscriminatory explanation if challenged by the other side.
Abbott could ask a larger panel of the 9th Circuit to reconsider the case and even take it to the Supreme Court.

Nigerians are Still Learners
I found this video of my other cousins Jamaicans and their obsession with bleaching and being white. I used to cry for Nigerians – at least many people are still ashamed to say they are bleaching while others claim the are toning. These my cousins tell you they want to be whiter than the white man….this is the video below
I just can't today….slavery was real and mental slavery is still real.

Let's Play Super Bowl Fantasy Numbers

What I never cease to be amazed at is how many defend all sports as positive with no negative impact on the community. It should take no brain surgeon to calculate facts. When a community can't handle the crap at the Waste Water Treatment Plant or have sound infrastructure to take the crap to the WWT, can't pay its teachers a living wage to teach children properly, pay for its public police and fire safety personnel and fix the potholes without asking for tax increases, but can afford to build a monster billion dollar playground for millionaire athletes and millionaire team owners that benefit the sports minded but whose costs to attend the average family of four can't afford that there is something rotten in Denmark. But hey, thats my opinion and I am very, very sure that this statement alone will inspire all those Conservative/Republican and Sports Minded Democrats to spend hours this morning refuting this entire thinking. As I go out in the world to earn my living, happy writing.

You want to play fantasy numbers, start with Mitch Daniels' estimate of the war in Iraq. That's some fantasy for you.
- Unknown said...
With all due respect, I doubt that the $$$ lost due to the loss of a potential convention in early February will come anywhere close to making a dent in the projected windfall numbers. It is hard to get them to come to Indy that time of year.

The fantasyland numbers that are thrown out, with no verifiable support are similar to the alice in wonderland finance practiced on Wall Street.
We have our own Pyramid scheme going here, which requires the constant funneling of tax dollars into a low-wage sector of the economy.
Wait until it is over and then you'll hear the stories (if you strain to listen) about how many businesses did not get the impact that they expected; but then it will be too late. And when the After-Peyton era begins for the Colts, we will have a big empty stadium that we can't afford to maintain.

Harrow East's newly elected MP has spoken about his win.
Bob Blackman, victorious on his fourth attempt to gain a parliamentary seat, hailed it as a rejection of Labour locally and nationally.
Conservative Blackman, who resigned from Brent council to stand in Harrow, said he hoped this would be the dawn of 'an even better age and a better time'.
He said: "I look forward to serving the people of Harrow East."
Paying tribute to 'concientious former MP Tony McNulty , who he ousted with a majority of 3,403, he said "I do know what it is like to lose an election.
"He must be feeling pretty rough now.
"I would like to be as diligent as he was if not more so."
McNulty commented that Harrow East had not heard the last of Labour.
"Anyone who thinks this is a good result for the Conservatives locally or nationally needs their head examined."

The SVRSS Senior Tigers Volleyball teams hosted the annual Doug Oberlin Invitational Tournament on Friday (Oct. 6) and Saturday (Oct. 7) with 12 visiting teams taking part, including the SVRSS Junior Girls Volleyball team.
Senior Boys
The boys ended third home tournament run on Saturday in third place following a three set battle against Margaret Barbour Collegiate Institute's (MBCI) junior team.
"The boys had a good first game but some unforced errors saw us losing the first set 25-24," said Boys' Head Coach Janelle Smith. "The boys picked up the play in the second and we won 25-16.
"This would mean we would have to play a third set and the boys worked hard and we won 15-9."
Prior to that, the Tigers took on Thompson's RD Parker Collegiate (RDPC) in back-to-back games, the second in playoffs for a spot in the championship game and the first in round-robin play.
"In the second game we struggled a bit getting the ball in the court on time and, unfortunately, fell 25-23 in the first set and 25-17 in the second," said Smith.
"In the first game we split with RDPC."
To start the four-game day, the Tigers faced MBCIs senior team.
"We had a good start with a 25-23 win," Smith said. "The boys focused and played every point.
"We had a bit of an injury at the end of that match – nothing serious, just some contact under the net with one of my setters – but they won. I think it rattled the boys a bit and we went down three to four points and could not gain them back by the end of the set. We lost that one by a score of 25-19."
Finishing a strong start to the tournament, the Tigers faced the Hapnot Kings' junior team to end the day Friday undefeated.
"The boys would have good games against them and I could play with the rotations," said Smith. "This is always good when you have a team of 12 to get on the court.
"We won that match 25-4 and 25-10 getting some out our young guys on the floor to get the experience of finishing off a game. They kept focus and played very well.
"Just before that we met MBCIs junior team beating them 25-14 and 25-17," she continued.
"Again, these were good games to get all the players in and see where everyone would fit into the mix. Playing some younger teams was good to get everyone playing time."
The weekend for the boys started on Friday at 12:30 when they took on Winnipegosis in the opening game of the tournament.
"The boys had a good start to the day working on the skills we focused on this week in practice," said Smith. "Our goal was to improve our serving and keep the ball in play.
"They beat Winnipegosis 25-19 and 25-12."
Overall, Smith noted that the boys had a good tournament.
"Of course you would always love to be in the finals but we had a good weekend with lots of games and lessons to be learned," she added.
"I was happy with the boys play this weekend. It is nice to see the teamwork and hard work they put in each and every week pay off."
Today (Oct. 10) the boys headed to Dauphin for an exhibition game, playing their senior team with some of the younger guys going up against their junior team to get some more court time and experience.
Senior Girls
Placing the same as the boys after all was said and done, the SVRSS Senior Girls ended with a third place standing.
The team faced the Hapnot Kweens in the final game on Saturday, coming out with a win after three sets.
"Scores were a 25-23 loss, 25-15 win, and 15-9 win," said Girls' Head Coach Alyssa Pitura.
"It was great to see the girls come back from a tough loss to defeat Hapnot and take home third place overall in the tournament."
Prior, the girls had faced RDPC for a shot at the finals game, coming up short.
"We did a lot to prepare for our semi-final game against Thompson, and did battle, but ultimately just came up a little short,"said Pitura of the 22-25 loss, 25-13 win and 15-9 loss.
"Momentum can swing just like that and, unfortunately for us, Thompson's best server went on a bit of a run on us and the third set got away."
The team played three round-robin games on Friday and Saturday morning, putting them second overall in their pool going into playoffs,
In Game 3 against Hapnot's junior team we won both sets with scores of 25-19 and 25-21," said Pitura. "We also won both sets, with scores of 25-19 and 25-22, against MBCI in Game 2.
"And, we split with Gilbert Plains during Game 1 with a 25-24 win in the first set and a 25-18 loss in the second set.
"Every tournament so far we've learned from and improved in the next one, so we're continuing to take steps in the right direction," Pitura concluded.
The girls also travelled to Dauphin today for exhibition games. Their next tournament will take place in Sanford this weekend.
Junior Girls

The saga of Rushmore "Mac" McKenzie continues with Highway 61. The title of the book refers to a semi-famous road going north out of the Twin Cities (it goes south too, but nobody cares). Did Bob Dylan write a song about it? I don't know; I take pride in my ignorance of Bob Dylan.
Anyway, as you know by now, Mac McKenzie is a former cop, now a millionaire. For his own satisfaction, he does unlicensed private eye work as "favors for friends." Jason Truhler is definitely not one of those. He's the ex-husband of Mac's girlfriend Nina, and he treated her so badly as to put her off marriage for life (or so she claims). But their daughter Ericka is a friend of Mac's, and she begs him to help her dad.
So Mac talks to Jason, who says he was set up. He went up to a jazz festival in Thunder Bay, met a girl, got drugged, and woke up in what I'll call here, for purposes of suspense, a "compromising situation." Now somebody's blackmailing him with a photograph, and he says he can't afford it anymore. If the blackmailers release the photo, it will devastate Nina and Ericka, two people Mac loves. So he agrees – reluctantly – to look into it.
About the first thing Mac learns is – surprise! – that Jason didn't tell him the whole truth. Further investigation leads to an extensive prostitution ring, with ties to Minnesota's rich and powerful. People get killed, of course.
Highway 61 is a solid private eye novel, featuring an intriguing hero and a fun cast of characters. I enjoyed it. Cautions for the usual.

I am a very crafty person, I love to do crafts for any occasion. I also love to do scrap booking. One day I found out about a product that would help me to create my crafts faster and easier. This product is called the Cricut Expressions and it cuts the papers and stickers for my crafts. Not only is it accurate, but it is also very simple to use, and it can do a lot of cutting at one time. All I have to do is select my image and press the button for it to begin cutting.
Now that I have my Cricut Expressions I am able to simply cut out my designs and use them for all of my scrap booking and crafting needs. The first day that I got mine I used it to cut out a lot of different designs fro a scrap book that I was in the middle of making. I was able to finish my entire scrap book in record speed. This product has allowed me to create my crafts much faster, plus they are cut much better than if I had done them myself with the use of scissors.
Watch The Cricut Expressions Crafts Cutting Machine Commercial Video
Now I use my Cricut cutter for everything that I can use it for. I am so impressed with mine that I have recommended it to all of my friends and family that also scrap book and like to do crafts. A few of them have also purchased it and they all like to use it too. Sometimes we get together and have scrap booking parties where we all use the Cricut Expressions to cut out our designs. If you enjoy scrap booking, or doing arts and crafts then you will want to make sure that you get one for yourself so that you can do your projects much easier and faster.

According to ReelChicago, The Dark Knight Rises will film in the UK, New Orleans, and….. DETROIT!!! As R2 and I live in the subs of D-Town we promise our readers that we will find out all we can until we are kicked out of the city and Christian Bale is done with us professionally. Now to go tell work I'm taking a leave of absence in May….

Coulda Been So… Weird?
Tags: Alfred, Batman, Batman Begins, Jim Gordon, Lucious Fox, Ra's al Ghul, Scarecrow, The Dark Knight, The Joker
As a follow up to R2's post Coulda Been So Beautiful that listed the "almost was" actors of the X-Men movies, we've decided to post some of our other favorite comic book movie "maybes". Today, I take "Batman Begins" and "The Dark Knight" under the microscope.
Batman Begins
Batman – Many men were considered for this role before they started handing out offers, including Henry Cavill (hot), Billy Crudup (he fell back on showing his junk in Watchmen, it's cool), Hugh Dancy (…the f*ck?), Daniel Day Lewis (quit sh*tting me, Nolan!), David Duchovny (don't close the article, it gets worse later on), Josh Hartnett (vomits), Joshua Jackson (vomits more), and Asthon Kutcher (soils self). David Boreanaz turned down the role of Batman. Let that sink in for a moment. You're most known for being on Angel and Bones and Christopher Nolan comes up to you offering you the role of the g*ddamned Batman and you turn it down?! Also, John Cusack was OFFERED the role of Batman. I think I may be sick again. *collects self* Oh, and did I mention that the runner up to play Batman if Christian Bale declined was pretty Jakey Gyllenhaal? Moving on…
Alfred – Anthony Hopkins turned down this role because there was no option to eat anybody. Solid reason.
Lucious Fox – Laurence Fishburne was up for this role. *insert white-friendly black actor here*
Ra's Al Ghul – Viggo Mortenson was offered this role and turned it down. Although I think Liam Neeson did fine, I'm sure Viggo would've done well too.
Jim Gordon – Dennis Quaid, Kurt Russel, and Chris Cooper were up for the role that went to the man, Gary Oldman. Good call, casting people.
Scarecrow – Christopher Eccleston (who?), Marilyn Manson (AHH!), and Ewan McGregor (helllooo, Scot) were considered for the Scarecrow. The role ended up going to the creepy Cillian Murphy. Fun Fact: Murphy tried out for Batman initially and, though turned down, Nolan was so impressed with his audition that he went out of his way to persuade Murphy into accepting the Scarecrow role.
Anyone else wondering why Katie Holmes was the only choice for Rachel? You and me both.
The Dark Knight
The Joker – Paul Bettany, Adrien Brody (rolls eyes), Lachy Hulme (whaaa?), Sam Rockwell (blech), and certain-to-be-disastrous-for-this-role ROBIN WILLIAMS were up for this role. It thankfully went to the late Heath Ledger, who performed the living sh*t out of it.
X-Men: First to Last
This looks incredibly dumb to me, but I decided to post it anyway. It's a teaser for the X-Men: First to Last bit that will be coming out in May. Obviously it's to support the movie X-Men: First Class, but being that that train wreck only has 1 out of the 5 original First Class Members I don't quite get how this is related. Thoughts?
Movie Update: Thor
Tags: Hawkeye, Jeremy Renner, The Avengers, Thor
Word is that an Avenger will have a cameo in the upcoming Thor movie. While not confirmed, TheWrap is reporting that the Avenger in question is Hawkeye (played by Jeremy Renner). Renner has said that his costume is more "reality-based" and not "a big, purple comics sort of thing," so it'll be interesting to see how he looks (assuming he's in costume). Thoughts?

Buildings and Contents Insurance
Your house purchase is likely to be the largest asset you will ever own and therefore it is vital that you ensure you have adequate protection in place. Buildings and Contents is important as if your home was to be involved in a house fire or you were burgled how would you replace your belongings and home?
We also offer additional extra's such as:
- Legal Protection
- Home Emergency Cover
- Accidental Damage
- Personal Possessions
We can also ensure that any valuable items that are worth over £1500 are properly insured for you giving you that extra piece of mind.
It is a requirement of your mortgage that you have Buildings Cover in place and your solicitor will need a copy of your policy document in order to complete on your purchase. Buildings cover is needed from the point of exchange as this is when you will become liable for the property.

Earlier this week, the Big Man had minor surgery (a Frenuloplasty to address his Ankylyglossia or, "a little snip-snip to fix his tongue-tie"). However, when you are 21 months old, no surgery is minor. The Big Man handled it like a champ though and, when he woke up, he was thrilled to see his three best pals–mommy, daddy, and his iPad. (If you're not familiar with the iPad, it is like a giant iPhone, without the phone).
This gives a good occasion to show off the 3rd skill that Avi has mastered (first puzzles, then flashcards): we present, at 20 months old, Avi, the iPad pro, a short film now in the Photo Gallery!

U.S. Representative Andy Barr (R-KY) introduced the Race Horse Cost Recovery Act (H.R. 2212) on May 24 that would make permanent the 3-year depreciation schedule currently in place for young racehorses. The bill would amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to allow for this faster recovery period that is set to expire at the end of 2013.
"The NTRA applauds Congressman Andy Barr for introducing H.R. 2212," said NTRA President and CEO Alex Waldrop. "If enacted, this much-needed legislation will help the horse industry protect hundreds of thousands of jobs and maintain over $100 billion in annual spending nationwide. Congressman Barr is a true champion for Kentucky's signature equine industry and the NTRA looks forward to working with him to build support for this important legislation."
Since January 1, 2009, members of the horse racing industry have depreciated racehorses 24 months and younger on the same 3-year schedule used for racehorses over 24 months of age. Prior to January 1, 2009, racehorses placed in service at 24 months and younger were depreciated over seven years. The NTRA secured the more favorable 3-year depreciation schedule for these younger racehorses as part of the Farm Bill.

Ginger, or Zingiber officinale as it's scientifically known, has been used as both food and medicine for thousands of years. The flesh of the ginger rhizome can be yellow, white or red in color, depending upon the variety. It is covered with a brownish skin that may either be thick or thin, depending upon whether the plant was harvested when it was mature or young. It has a firm, yet striated texture and a taste that is aromatic, pungent and hot. Native to southeastern Asia, ginger has been a common ingredient in these parts of the world and has long been prized for its aromatic, culinary and medicinal properties.
This underground stem, which is used as both a spice and herb, is packed with active ingredients that play a variety of roles in your body and is still a popular remedy for motion and morning sickness. You can enjoy the health benefits in various way, teas, extracts, supplements, and you can eat it raw to benefit quickly from its healing powers.
Below are some uses of this centuries old plant:
Stomach Discomfort. Ginger can relieve nausea and vomiting because of its ability to disrupt and expel gas in the intestine. It appears to accumulate in the gastrointestinal tract, which may help alleviate stomach issues. It can safely alleviate nausea and vomiting from morning sickness as well as motion sickness.
Provides Pain Relief. Ginger can act as a natural pain reliever, making it a good natural alternative to ibuprofen or aspirin. The anti-inflammatory properties help relieve the body of aches and pains it may be experiencing.
Improves absorption. Ginger improves the absorption and stimulation of essential nutrients in the body. It does this by stimulating gastric and pancreatic enzyme secretion.
Helps with Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Ginger can help subdue the effects of IBS. The anti-inflammatory properties help soothe and reduce the intestinal tract to ease people suffering from IBS. The best part is, you just need to add ginger to your diet, supplements, tea, in your cooking…, to help combat IBS.
Protects Against Alzheimer's Disease. Research has shown that ginger helps to slow down the loss of brain cells. The loss of brain cells can be a precursor to Alzheimer's.
Reduces Arthritic Inflammation (especially arthritic). Ginger contains some of the most potent anti-inflammatory fighting substances known and is a natural powerful painkiller. The anti-inflammatory nature of ginger means that it can help with a host of inflammation-based conditions and diseases such as arthritis.
Strengthens Immunity. Ginger helps improve your immune system. Consuming a little bit ginger a day can help decreases bacterial infections in the stomach and helps battle a bad cough and throat irritation. This is a fantastic feature to ginger that is a selling point of ginger by itself.
Fights Diabetes. Ginger appears to be useful in both helping prevent and treat diabetes. It can significantly reduce blood glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol, and LDL cholesterol. Ginger has a positive effect on diabetes because it inhibits enzymes in carbohydrate metabolism, increases insulin release and sensitivity and improves lipid profiles.
Maintains Normal Blood Circulation. Ginger gets the blood in your body flowing, which will give you a feeling of having more energy, and can help you with any feelings of sluggishness or fatigue. It also contains chromium, magnesium and zinc which can help to improve blood flow, as well as help prevent chills, fever, and excessive sweat.
Whether you want to add ginger to your favorite dish, tea, take it as a supplement, or just eat it raw the benefits are substantial.

As spring slowly warms up to summer, and then cools down to fall we remember one hot (sometimes literally!) trend for weddings is an outdoor wedding and reception. But what if you have a beautiful wedding day with perfect weather, what are some fabulous things you can do to entertain your guests? The good people at livestrong.com have the answer, with this awesome article about outdoor wedding games. I mean, if your wedding is in the early afternoon, not everybody is up for dancing or other options many brides go for in traditional wedding receptions, so why not plan some of these fantastic activities for your guests to enjoy, and make even more fun memories for your wedding day!
Here are some examples of fun games you can have set up for your weddings guests to enjoy:
Croquet – Yes croquet! If you've never played before it's actually pretty fun and a ton of laughs. Plus you can put decorations on the top of each wicket to make it wedding themed. How fun is that?
Volleyball – This is a popular one in my circles, but mainly because we really love volleyball. Are we especially good? Not a chance, but it's fun. If you employ this one though, you might want to give your guests prior notice to bring casual clothes for the reception. There's nothing like trying to play volleyball in heels and a dress.
These are some of my favorite ideas they list, but there are even more in the article on the link above, so check it out.

Gwyneth Paltrow just never ceases to amaze me...not only is she a gorgeous actress and adorable mother, but she's also a savvy business woman who's got great taste in fashion, food and culture. And lucky for us, she's put that great taste into her new app that I've just downloaded. It's called GOOP City Guides and although the price is a bit steep for an app ($3.99), I think it's so worth it! GOOP has guides for London and New York, with LA soon to come. To be honest it probably doesn't make sense to purchase unless you live in one of those cities or are going there for a week-long holiday, but if one of these applies, get downloading! The London guide has posh recommendations for everything from food and city walks to bars and beauty. Even though I've lived here for a year now (crazy, I know!) and I like to think I've gotten around to some of the city sites and trendy spots, I still haven't been to half the places she recommends. And most of them look like they're worth a visit.

Our sliding patio door is difficult to slide. We believe the casters or bearings that help it glide are worn out. Where can we get the parts to repair the door? Or can they be replaced? :)
I just went in the phone book, either under Door or Window repair and found someone who repaired sliding glass doors, they still had the parts for old doors, although they suggested replacing the whole door.

Read our Open Letter to the Healthcare Community Leaders, from the Security Research Community.
Leave a public pledge to uphold the Hippocratic Oath for Connected Medical Devices in the comments.
Hippocratic Oath for Connected Medical Devices (PDF) (German)
The latest medical advances lay at the intersection of patient care and connected technology. Integration of new technology enables innovations that improve patient outcomes, reduce cost of care delivery, and advance medical research. New technology also introduces new classes of accidents and adversaries that must be anticipated and addressed proactively. Remote malicious attackers, software flaws, and privacy concerns are the potential inadvertent side effects of transplanting connected technology into care delivery. The once distinct worlds of patient safety and cyber security have collided.
The Hippocratic Oath is a symbolic attestation by physicians to provide care in the best interest of patients. Medical devices are key instruments of delivering this care. It stands to reason that the design, development, production, deployment, use, and maintenance of medical devices should also follow this symbolic spirit. Our Hippocratic Oath for Connected Medical Devices describes commitments to capabilities that preserve patient safety, as well as trust in the process of care delivery itself.
On January 19th, 2016 I Am The Cavalry published an open letter to the Healthcare Stakeholder Communities. This letter urges stakeholders to:
- Acknowledge that patient safety issues can be caused by cybersecurity issues;
- Embrace security researchers as willing allies to preserve safety and trust;
- Attest to these five foundational capabilities to improve visibility of their Cyber Safety programs;
- Collaborate now to avert negative consequences in the future.
Hippocratic Oath for Connected Medical Devices
I will revere and protect human life, and act always for the benefit of my patients. I recognize that all systems fail; inherent defects and adverse conditions are inevitable. Capabilities meant to improve or save life, may also harm or end life. Where failure impacts patient safety, care delivery must be resilient against both indiscriminate accidents and intentional adversaries. Each of the roles in a diverse care delivery ecosystem shares a common responsibility: As one who seeks to preserve and improve life, I must first do no harm.
To that end, I swear to fulfill, to the best of my ability, these principles.
- Cyber Safety by Design: I respect domain expertise from those that came before. I will inform design with security lifecycle, adversarial resilience, and secure supply chain practices.
- Third-Party Collaboration: I acknowledge that vulnerabilities will persist, despite best efforts. I will invite disclosure of potential safety or security issues, reported in good faith.
- Evidence Capture: I foresee unexpected outcomes. I will facilitate evidence capture, preservation, and analysis to learn from safety investigations.
- Resilience and Containment: I recognize failures in components and in the environment are inevitable. I will safeguard critical elements of care delivery in adverse conditions, and maintain a safe state with clear indicators when failure is unavoidable.
- Cyber Safety Updates: I understand that cyber safety will always change. I will support prompt, agile, and secure updates.
⚕ Cyber Safety by Design
I respect domain expertise from those that came before. I will inform design with security lifecycle, adversarial resilience, and secure supply chain practices.
Safe outcomes are the product of systematic intent throughout the device lifecycle; they cannot be left to chance. Those whose lives and livelihoods depend on the reliability of the medical device should be able to evaluate for themselves the extent to which safety is assured – or neglected – in its design and development. Greater maturity and consistency in software design, development, testing, and maintenance leads to higher quality, and improved patient outcomes.
- Cyber security standards based. Existing International and industry standards for secure design and development of software components are highly mature. Manufacturers who use these can accelerate the security of their software development, baselines, and processes. While there is no single consensus standard, common practices can help mature a program and lay the groundwork for adoption of a preferred standard or framework later.
- Adversarial resilience analysis. All other things equal, a component and system that has been more rigorously tested has fewer unknown flaws or defects. Adversarial threat modeling, fault testing, and other cyber security practices build on safety engineering to consider failure and misuse caused by adversaries. Assessments should be carried out by qualified personnel, independent of design and development.
- Avoid unmitigated remote access. Capabilities to save lives in the hands of qualified caregivers, can put life at risk when guided by accident or adversaries. Non-unique credentials (passwords, keys, etc.) and undisclosed access may allow untrusted commands, information, or individuals to influence treatment. Open, remote access may facilitate widescale harm from accidents and adversaries. Where such exposures must exist, mitigations must also exist to prevent harm.
- Supply chain rigor. Well-governed, traceable hardware and software supply chains establish predictable quality and provenance of device components. A more trustworthy supply chain enables better resilience and a more agile response to accidents and adversaries. Off-the-shelf hardware and software, acquired with appropriate rigor, can increase reliability, reduce cost, and speed time to market compared to other alternatives.
- Avoid known flaws. Avoid third-party software components with known vulnerabilities when less vulnerable alternatives are available and will not compromise required functionality. Consider providing a bill of materials for third-party software packages, including their versions, so stakeholders can make their own risk decisions, even beyond the expected lifetime of the device.
- Shared responsibilities. The outcome of any course of treatment is a union of the device's inherent capabilities, the care giver's operation in its environment. The best care possible is achieved when the device and operator do what each is best poised to do. In the absence of clear statements of design assumptions and expectations for care delivery, the ability of care givers to replicate assumed environments and processes will be fortunate coincidence, rather than inherently systemic. Communicate expected deployment conditions, known failure conditions, operational requirements, design assumptions, architectural elements, reference implementation guidance, specific warnings or prohibitions, and other considerations.
⚕ Third-Party Collaboration
I acknowledge that vulnerabilities will persist, despite best efforts. I will invite disclosure of potential safety or security issues, reported in good faith.
Software flaws identified before they become safety issues give defenders an advantage. Manufacturers with the capability to receive and investigate flaws quickly increase this advantage. Those who encourage and act on reporting from independent sources can also reduce cost and exposure beyond what is possible with internal review alone. Value from researcher-manufacturer collaborations has led to manufacturers incentivizing research via recognition and reward programs.
- Standards based. Published policies and programs in the software industry can serve as effective examples for medical device manufacturers. Use of vetted standards (such as those in the FDA Consensus Standards, including ISO 30111 and ISO 29147) and practices accelerate an organization's maturity and ensure predictable, normalized interfaces to those who report issues.
- Existing mechanisms. Use of existing processes and structures reduces time to develop an effective program, increases participation, and reduces administrative burden. Processes and policies already in place to accept and respond to reports of safety concerns – such as complaint handling – may also be used to handle reports of potential safety or security issues.
- Known interfaces. External vulnerability reporting coordinators have normalized interfaces between manufacturers and third-party researchers. This brokers trust on all sides and reduces effort required.
- Incentives focused. Patient safety should be in everyone's best interest. Positive incentives, such as outreach, recognition, and financial incentives, drive earlier, higher quality reporting. This reduces cost, time, and negative perception to eliminate flaws, at the same time gives defenders an edge on adversaries by disrupting their ability to monetize attacks. Negative incentives deny these benefits to patients and to the healthcare ecosystem.
⚕ Evidence Capture
I foresee unexpected outcomes. I will facilitate evidence capture, preservation, and analysis to learn from safety investigations.
Safety investigations and records of device operations give visibility into unexpected outcomes. This evidence can plainly show the sources of error, be they malfunctions, design defects, human error or deliberate attack. Without evidence, causes of adverse events will be opaque and corrective actions will be speculative.
- Independently reviewable. Independent reviews of device failure or safety reports allow stakeholders to investigate adverse events in a timely manner, to improve transparency of findings, and to support lines of accountability. Manufacturers should provide guidance to support investigations by healthcare facilities, specialized service providers, researchers, and agencies.
- Tamper resistant, forensically sound evidence capture. Mechanisms should provide a legal standard of care for preserving logs and other information about the event, including tamper resistance, tamper evidence, and chain of custody.
- Privacy sensitivity. The benefits of safety investigations are intrinsically linked to records that demonstrate the impact of failure. However, these benefits can be realized without creating privacy and surveillance concerns by decoupling security and integrity logs from patient records.
- Reapplication of knowledge. Understanding causes of vulnerability, failure and harm are a precursor to addressing them, not the end in itself. Insights must inform all aspects of the medical device and patient care cycles. Share lessons learned with the broader healthcare community where it can improve the public good.
⚕ Resilience and Containment
I recognize failure in components and in the environment are inevitable. I will safeguard critical elements of care delivery in adverse conditions, and maintain a safe state with clear indicators when failure is unavoidable.
Medical devices deliver patient care through an interdependent system of systems. The strength this complexity brings should not put patients at undue risk of harm. Systems must operate safely independent of the operating states of other systems or components. Failures should be apparent, dependent inputs validated, and outputs protected.
- Minimal elective exposure. Connectivity can provide critical capabilities to medical devices. It also increases exposure to hazardous conditions and adversaries. Exposure that does not meaningfully improve capabilities adds attack surface. (eg. NFC versus Bluetooth for changing treatments in implantable devices.) As such, more secure and lower cost designs seek to minimize these types of exposure.
- Isolation and segmentation. Unexpected or hostile interactions between devices and their environment are more likely to lead to harm than well-understood interactions. A more secure design and implementation seeks to shield components and systems from adversaries or unexpected conditions.
- Fail safe and visibly. Failure conditions should not cause undue harm to patients and should clearly indicate that the device is not operating normally. Unexpected modes of operation or known failures should trigger a "fail safe" or "safe mode" that can prevent a failure in one device or software component from spreading. Communicate indications and known conditions of failure to stakeholders.
- Trusted input. Tamper resistant, tamper evident techniques safeguard against life-critical decisions or actions from untrustworthy information or instructions (ie. Drug libraries, HL7 codes, treatment plans, etc.), ideally with real-time feedback.
- Patient record integrity. Decisions about patient care rely on accurate records of patient history and treatment. These records should be protected against tampering, manipulation, loss, and gaps. Capabilities such as ample storage, confirmation after transfer, integrity validation, and privacy protection allow informed patient care decisions.
⚕ Cyber Safety Updates
I understand that cyber safety will always change. I will support prompt, agile, and secure updates.
Once an issue is known that could affect patient care, a faster response improves care delivery. Software updates are faster and less expensive than hardware replacement; and automated, remote software updates are most efficient. Increases in exposure are compensated for by the speed and scale of addressing flaws or weaknesses that could lead to negative outcomes.
- Automation and documentation. Update processes that are more automated and better controlled are less prone to error, delay, malice, misinterpretation, or other issues. Process documentation should outline clear roles and responsibilities for relevant stakeholders and allow development of corresponding processes inside stakeholder groups.
- Secure update process. Processes should verify the authenticity and integrity of software updates to prevent adversarial, malicious, or accidental tampering. Remote update capability can give cost, reputational, and speed advantages if implemented in KNOWN good ways.
- Stakeholder communication. Communication to stakeholders should be prompt, transparent, and forthright. Manufacturers should notify relevant stakeholders when and where flaws exist, their severity, contents of the update, and instructions for each role. Updates may be exclusively communication about workarounds, warnings, unsafe conditions, labeling, instructions for use, or other relevant information.
- Support dependency security updates. Medical device safety depends on the integrity of third-party software dependencies. Patient safety must not be undermined by vulnerabilities in these platforms, nor in applying updates to fix them. Verification processes specific to off-the-shelf software security updates can enable a more agile response.
When the technology we depend on affects public safety and human life, it commands our utmost attention and diligence. Our medical devices command this level of care. These capabilities establish a foundation for cyber safety. Medical professionals are masters of your domain, cyber security researchers are masters of ours. Where our domains of expertise overlap, we can achieve safer outcomes sooner, together.
Medical device manufacturers, healthcare delivery organizations, physicians, patients, insurers, and other interested parties can get in touch with I Am The Cavalry at info -at- iamthecavalry.org
We urge healthcare stakeholders to adopt, develop, enhance, and promulgate these capabilities. Patients, care givers, and others have a right to inform themselves of potential consequences of treatment options. Manufacturers and others involved in the chain of care delivery may demonstrate their commitment to cyber safety by attesting to the way they fulfil this oath. We commit to help you diagnose and treat cyber safety issues to continue your ability to provide greater patient care benefits with fewer side effects.
We welcome public pledges in the comments. Whether you are a researcher, care giver, patient, or even a concerned citizen, you may commit to join us in collaborating toward our common goal to be safer, sooner, together.

Time is precious; enjoy it while you can
Thinking of summer holiday activities can be mind-boggling. There is so much pressure in our society to create the perfect 'Instagram worthy' summer. In the summer, families spend a fortune on trips to all sorts of attractions; holidays, theme parks, zoos, play centres and trampoline parks.
If you have the funds to be able to spend most of your days enjoying all of these activities you are lucky. Even though I am a teacher, I have to think carefully about planning activities that involve spending as I also need to pay my bills and save up for a new kitchen. For many parents, going far afield on excursions is just not possible. So what do they do?
How do you keep your kids entertained for 6 weeks without day trips?
You get creative. As a teacher, I am conscious that I do not get to spend quality time with my children as much as I would like to. The six week holidays gives me the opportunity to connect and bond with my two kids and make memories that them and I will cherish forever.
It is not all idyllic happy families; in fact, it is quite the opposite; my plans go wrong, my kids get grumpy, they wind each other up and fight. However, this is all part of family life and I just take every moment as it happens, and meditate… a lot.
I wanted to create a post where I collate all the types of things I will be doing over the summer holidays to keep my children's bodies and brains functioning. As I prefer to limit their screen time; I have to be inventive and have a couple of activities planned every day for them to do. Many of these activities are ones I did with my parents and have also done with my own children.
Today, I will focus on outdoor activities; because fresh air is fundamental to happiness in my opinion, especially when it is sunny. I have also done a post on indoor activities.
Outdoor fun
1) Create an obstacle course using random objects. Get your children to try and beat their own times
2) Get some lining paper and paper plates and use your feet and hands to paint. Pour the poster paint onto the plates and have races up and down the lining paper.
3) Bubble wands or a bubble machine in the garden. My son likes a bubble gun so he can shoot bubbles at his sister.
4) Planting seeds/flowers and watering them.
5) Go for walk in the woods/fields and see how many different plants/trees/animals you can spot.
6) Go to the park
7) Play a sport together like tennis or football.
8) Frisbee or piggy in the middle
9) Fill a bucket with water and a washing up bowl and get them to move the water into the bowl using different things.
10) Going out on bikes, scooters or skateboards.
11) Play tag. If you want to make it interesting you could change the traditional rules.
12) Tails chase. Use lengths of ribbon and tuck them into the back of trousers so it looks like a tail. Each player tries to capture as many tails as the can without having their own stolen.
13) Have a scavenger hunt. You can get them to collect things for each different colour.
14) Glow in the dark bowling
15) Water gun cup racing
16) Pick flowers, make daisy chains or flower crowns.
17) You could make a fairy/gnome garden.
18) Hula hoop and limbo competitions
19) Have a picnic; even if it is just for your teddy bears.
20) Play hide and seek
21) Make a racetrack in your garden. You can use rope, stones or any things you find.
22) Build a stick raft and test it out on some water.
23) Use chalk to draw pictures on the pavement or your patio.
24) Use chalk to draw round targets and get your child to throw a beanbag into them and score points.
25) Hopscotch
26) Fill water guns and spray bottles with paint. Put a large piece of paper up and let them great messy art.
27) Play leapfrog or have a hurdles race
28) Play marbles or tiddlywinks
29) Make washable chalk paint and paint your wooden fence/shed
30) Make a gravel pit for your construction vehicles
If you want to see more you can follow my pinterest board of activities.
What outdoor activities would you recommend for the kids this summer? I would love to have some more ideas in the comments; sharing is caring.
