Which is the best power bank under 1000?
Looking to buy the best power banks under Rs 1000 in India?
I would suggest you guys top 3 brands you should go with closed eyes. Following Brands have a great reputation and quality of power banks and are also easily available worldwide. I have tried these brands with their different variants of power banks and these works great. While using cheap brands you will get a lot of issues within the first 3 months of use and you can not relay them in emergency situations whereas these are the trusted brands to go.
There are various power banks for smartphones in the market with battery capacity ranging from 5000mAh to 20800mAh. Obviously, there are certain power banks with cell capacity as high as 40,000mAh ( yes, you read it right ). But if you are an Indian or Asian customer then you might not get your hands on them as they are mainly available in US or UK. Power banks either use Lithium-ion or Lithium-polymer cells to charge any device. Lithium-ion cells are a type of rechargeable battery which is made of lithium-ions whereas lithium-polymer cells are packed in a soft pouch which makes them more lightweight than the Lithium-ion cells. Let's understand the difference between lithium-ion and lithium polymer cells used in power banks
In this connected world, where the smartphone is your key, the battery life of your phone may play a spoilsport. Since the device is always connected to the world, the battery loses its charge quite fast. Charging it midway through the day is the norm, or else be ready for a dead phone towards the evening. For people on the move, a dead phone is the last thing they want to face. Don't worry, help is at hand and it is called a 'Power Bank'. Power Bank works on a simple principle: Charge it whenever you can and use it whenever required. Being completely portable is an added advantage. Running with a dead battery phone would soon become a thing of the past soon.
The best brands in Power Banks for Smartphones include Ambrane, Xiaomi, Syska and much more. These are the leading Power Bank brands of India. We will be covering big brands that manufacture power banks to charge smartphones like Xiaomi later in this guide and trust me their Power Banks are just phenomenal. Till then keep reading…Power Banks are devices that are used to charge our smartphones, mobile phones, and other devices so that we can use them when we are in need. As time is passing, we are getting more and more dependent on technology. It is an advantage obviously. As the graphics are increasing the performance of the smartphone is also increasing rapidly. This increased performance makes us open multiple tasks at the same time as using several apps on our smartphone. Now, this is a benefit to all of us……But at the same time, your smartphone battery is under huge PRESSURE. The point is the more you use your smartphone the faster its battery is going to run out. Now, what's the solution. Well…It's Simple. The Solution is to buy a Power Bank. Not just any power bank, but the Best Power Bank for Smartphones in India. Let us first exactly know about Power Bank and then we will jump over to what are the Best Power Banks for Smartphones in India. What do you do when your phone dies? What do you do when your phone gets switched off when you are on the go? functions of the gadgets these days leading to a faster draining of the battery life. Every phone has a battery, it depends on phones to phones some have larger battery capacity some have not and the fact is that your phone runs on a battery which eventually runs down. With no access to a charging point outdoors or in public areas, you won't be able to charge the phone.

Good news for people who love Counter Strike, one of the most popular multiplayer shooting games. The game can now be played on Android devices thanks to Mr. Alibek Omarov, who is well known for making old computer games run on Android devices. Although skeptics think that it will be petty difficult to manage the precise movements, aims and planning that is required on Counter Strike to be done on Android devices, nevertheless having the game on the Android is an achievement in itself.
You can play Counter Strike 1.6 or Half Life on your android devices provided you have the Xash3D software. If you do not have it, it would be suggested that you download it. In addition, you will also be required to get the files from across your steam account. Once done, you will be set to play Counter Strike 1.6 and Half Life on your Android device.
The great thing about the Android version of Counter Strike 1.6 is the fact that you can add support peripherals to your devices and enjoy the game but with a catch. Here in you will not have the multiplayer functionality. You will have to battle the bots in the game, which also is nothing less that interesting. The multiplayer feature will be available if you decide to use your fingers for the tedious task of aiming and movement.
The game has a lot of touch screen controls placed on the screen, which to a certain extent makes the visual slightly cluttered. The movements and controls are fairly smooth provided you don't mess up with your fingers.
Counter Strike 1.6 was released in the year 2013 and the latest updated version Counter Strike: Global Offensive was released in 2014. The primary requirement for playing the game on your Android devices is a legitimate Steam account and Xash3D software on your device. Do not forget that in order to play Counter Strike 1.6 or Half Life on your android device, you will be required to possess a fairly powerful android handset to considerable amount of RAM and memory.

Jameer Nelson is really looking forward to playing against Derrick Rose in the second round of the NBA Playoffs. The only problem? The Magic's first round series against the Atlanta Hawks hasn't even started yet! And Hawks forward Josh Smith wants Nelson and the rest of the Magic to remember that. "A lot of their players are already claiming they are already going to make the second round," he said recently when asked about the Hawks first round matchup against the Magic, "so that gives us a little added motivation...If that doesn't get you geared up, I don't know what does."
He didn't stop there, either, claiming that he was surprised by Nelson's anticipation of the second round because he feels the Hawks are actually a better team than the Magic. "It was surprising, knowing that we are a better team," Smith said. "They understand that they can't just run off [the court]. It's going to be a tough series, and they know it." The NBA Playoffs: Where an amazing amount of shit-talking happens! [via Atlanta Journal Constitution]

Choosing modern British repertoire is an inspired treatment of the great Harrison organ of Coventry Cathedral, which interprets its colours and textures so well. There are familiar pieces (Moore Paean, Mathias Processional, Preston Alleluyas) and a superb array of less-known and more challenging works, including Dove Niagara, MacMillan Offertorium, Bingham St Bride, assisted by angels, and more. Kerry Beaumont (organist at Coventry since 2006) plays expressively and injects energy in all the right places. Discover some brilliant new repertoire here and enjoy established favourites too.

Advertising Headlines
John Foust on the power of restraint
On an out-of-state trip, I saw a billboard that compelled me to pull off the road to take a closer look. What was so unusual? It had more words than I had ever seen on a billboard – 45 words. "What in the world were they thinking?" I asked myself. "I'm probably the only driver who knows what the billboard says, and that's because I stopped to count the words."
Creating believable advertising
"Willing suspension of disbelief" is a cornerstone of entertainment. The term was coined in 1817 by poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge, author of "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner." It refers to the fact that an audience must temporarily suspend rational judgment in order to enjoy a story or presentation.
John Foust on doing a little more and a little less for sales meetings
Kristen told me how she handles one of the biggest challenges of managing her newspaper's sales department. "Sales meetings – like a lot of other things – fall into predictable patterns," she said. "The boss talks, the staff members listen, and more often than not, it's just a transference of information. No one feels motivated to do anything different after the meeting is over.

- There are 13 products on this list simply because I was disappointed by 13 products last year (not a large number, considering how many I tried).
- As always, the products are listed in chronological order of purchase, not from best to worst or vice versa. I've linked to my original reviews where available.
- I returned several of these products, sometimes too quickly to take photos. In those cases, I've used the brands' product shots. I also lost a number of my photos while clearing my phone's memory last year.
- Not all of these products are total fails. I kept and still use a few of them, since I don't subscribe to the KonMari doctrine of getting rid of anything that I don't absolutely love. Especially in the case of color cosmetics, if a product fulfills a specific purpose but isn't perfect, I'll often keep using it instead of buying yet another product in the same category. The more "niche" that specific purpose is (e.g. purple blush, not red lipstick), the more likely I am to try to work with it.
- Can I draw any lessons from this lineup? You'd think "no more impulse purchases" might be one lesson, but it's actually not. Some of my favorite makeup of all time has been bought on impulse, and as you'll soon discover, some of my least favorite purchases of 2016 were planned carefully. "Buy less drugstore makeup" strikes me as a good resolution for 2017, though—and of course, my larger goal is to reduce my consumption overall.
If you're going to charge $18 for nail polishes and fire up the hype machine to create an aura of luxury and exclusivity around them, the least you can do is ensure that they take less than an hour to dry and aren't patchy after three coats. Pastels are hard for any brand to get right in any product category (nail polish, lipstick, eyeshadow, you name it), so I'd ordinarily be more forgiving, but my $8 Formula X nail polish in Lively is far better quality at less than half the price.
Look, I love a well-considered brand aesthetic. But there's something about Smith & Cult that just rubs me the wrong way. The nail polish bottles are twice as wide as an Essie or Zoya, as if Smith & Cult is asserting that its polishes are twice as good as any other and therefore deserve twice as much space on your shelf. The website is so fancy that it stalls my browser, and the giant gifs splashed all over the page make it almost impossible to focus on the words. Which might be a good thing, because the product blurbs sound like they were excerpted from a trust-fund kid's "satirical" short story in her undergrad literary magazine: "It's all about everyone spending the entire time strongly insinuating that they are elevated and evolved because they eat organic uncultured Echinacea balls of green mulchy purity." The whole brand feels like a lazy rich-person vanity project aimed at other rich people. I mean, one of the polishes is literally named "Feed the Rich." Oh, and the "add to cart" label reads "add to swag," as if you needed another reason to bypass this brand.
2. ColourPop Super Shock Cheek in Rain
I don't hate this blush, but its texture has always annoyed me. I expected a ColourPop blush to have the same moussey, spongy texture as the brand's eyeshadows and highlighters. Instead, Rain feels like one of those softer products left open for a few days. I don't know if I got a dried-out product or if this is just what ColourPop's blushes are like, but it's only become more difficult over the past year to extract color from the pan. I was so excited to find an affordable purple blush, too!
3. Glossier Moisturizing Moon Mask
It wouldn't be an Auxiliary Beauty worst-of list without a mention of Glossier. My Instagram pal Amanda was kind enough to send me some Glossier mask pods from the holiday 2015 release, and here I am about to repay her generosity by shitting all over the Moon Mask. I will admit that the other mask in the set, the Mega Greens Galaxy Pack, is one of the most effective masks I've ever tried. The Moon Mask, though...it's not terrible, exactly, but I don't get the point. It's too thick to work as a night moisturizer (even for skin as dry as mine), yet too emollient to work as a normal wash-off mask. It left my skin feeling greasy but not unusually hydrated. I didn't break out or get hives or anything, but meh.
4. Bite Beauty Amuse Bouche Lipstick in Lavender Jam
It pains me to put Lavender Jam on this list, because I adore the color, an almost neon blue-lavender reminiscent of the hydrangeas that bloom all over town in June. But my relationship with Bite Beauty over the years can be summed up by Samuel Johnson's description of a friend's second marriage: "the triumph of hope over experience." I ordered Lavender Jam sight unseen, knowing that no Bite formula had ever worked for me but hoping that the new Amuse Bouche lipsticks would be less slippery than their Luminous Creme predecessors. Alas, it was not to be. Lavender Jam slides off my lips within an hour, a sin that I might forgive in a less wacky shade. As it is, I've used almost half the tube because I have to reapply it constantly. I've given up on Bite for the foreseeable future, despite feeling just a bit tempted by their new Edgy Neutrals collection, a quartet of yellowy browns guaranteed to make me look like hell.
5. Topshop Matte Lip Bullet in Wink
Almost every time I break my "no ordering before swatching" rule, I come to regret it. After my disappointment with Marc Jacobs So Sofia, I decided to order Topshop's coral Matte Lip Bullet, which was so new that I couldn't find any swatches online. The product shot above is very inaccurate: Wink turned out to be a faded beigey coral, far less pigmented than the other Matte Lip Bullets I'd tried, with weird gold sparkles throughout. Not shimmer or frost, but discrete particles of gold glitter. And I couldn't even return it. I threw it away after wearing it twice and felt so wasteful. Never again.
6. The Face Shop Jeju Volcanic Lava Peel Off Clay Nose Mask
7. Bioré Pore Strips
I should have known better than to buy these. I should have known so much better. But about midway through the year, I reached the point where all I could see when I looked in the mirror were the pores on my nose. So after trying a couple of gentler remedies, I went for the hardcore option, or what I thought would be hardcore. As it turned out, the pore strips were fiendishly difficult to use, and all they did was remove the top layer of skin from my nose. I feel so dumb.
8. NYX Matte Lipstick in Up the Bass
You've likely had the dispiriting experience of buying a product you've wanted for the better part of a year, eagerly trying it on at home, and discovering within a few seconds that it sucks. It's unpleasant to reflect that this is what you spent so much willpower on—and this, too, is what broke that willpower and opened your wallet. I wanted so badly to love Up the Bass, despite (or because of) its lolariously vulgar name. The deep gray-purple was the first shade that caught my eye when NYX expanded its matte offerings at the beginning of 2016, and because I'd had such good luck with brick-red Alabama, I assumed that Up the Bass would have a similarly opaque, comfortable, long-lasting formula. Instead, it was patchy, slippery, and given to fading within an hour of application. I'm not always glad I live in America, but it certainly is nice to be able to return shitty makeup. In December, I took Up the Bass back to Ulta and used my store credit toward a far superior product: Urban Decay Vintage Vice Lipstick in Roach, a metallic bronze.
In 2017, I'm going to be a lot more wary of drugstore makeup, and of NYX in particular. There's a certain thrill in buying a weird cheap product that might disappoint or might be a hidden gem, but let's be honest, it's usually the former. The Russian-roulette mentality leads to a lot of wasted time and money, and I'd rather not buy a product in the first place than run the risk of having to return it. Reduce consumer waste 2k17, people.
9. Lipstick Queen Black Lace Rabbit
You had one job, Lipstick Queen: making good lipstick. Instead, you took the Smith & Cult route, crafting elaborate stories around your expensive products to obscure their mediocrity. Black Lace Rabbit had such promise, but I couldn't make it work. It was patchy on its own, giving me less of a "smoky lip" than a "post-burger lip." Layered over other lipsticks, it reduced their longevity dramatically. Again: so glad I live in the land of easy makeup returns, even if the tradeoff is President Trump, unaffordable healthcare, and no gun control to speak of...oh, wait.
10. Essie Playing Koi
I read several enthusiastic reviews of Playing Koi before buying it. I wonder how the reviewers reached that conclusion: anyone who tried the bottle I got would notice that it's still patchy after three coats. It's also darker and browner on the nails than I expected. And I spilled half the bottle all over my desk one night, which is really my fault, but I'm going to blame Essie anyway. Clearly this polish is cursed. If you're going to buy a shade from Essie's fall 2016 collection, go for Udon Know Me, a dusty light aqua that lasts several days without chipping on my nails.
11. Floss Gloss Donatella
It's rare that I give up on a brand entirely, but I've more or less given up on Floss Gloss. I've now tried four of their polishes—BritBrit2000, Dimepiece, Dinge, and Donatella—and haven't been terribly impressed with any of them. The worst is Donatella, which is a beautiful gold-shimmered pumpkin color for the 12 hours it lasts on my nails before it begins chipping. Made in Brooklyn, Floss Gloss has an exuberant, emoji-filled social-media presence ("👯 💕🏁MADE 4 THE BAD GRLS🏆💵") and a temptingly eclectic color selection, but its formulas just suck and there's no getting around that.
12. ColourPop Creme Gel Liner in Fast Lane
ColourPop is the Russian-roulette experience of drugstore beauty shopping taken to the nth degree. Because ColourPop's products are nonrefundable unless they arrive damaged (and even then it's iffy), yet also impossible to try before buying, you know you're taking a risk every time you place an order. And that's a problem, but it's also part of the appeal. Yes, your new eyeliner might be a total waste of $6, but what if it proves to be the best $6 you ever spent? This kind of thinking is addictive in the same way that gambling is addictive, and like gambling it does nothing but drain your bank account. Of the ColourPop products I've tried over the past two years, I've loved maybe a third, felt indifferent to a third, and actively disliked a third. Those aren't great odds, and I'm going to try very hard to resist the siren song of ColourPop in 2017.
I started wearing eyeliner regularly last summer, and after switching between black and brown pencils for a couple of months, I decided to expand my color horizons. ColourPop's eyeliners had received a decent amount of praise, so I ordered Fast Lane, a dark teal. I realized later that much of the praise had come from people who had used the eyeliners on their waterline, which I never do (I wear contact lenses and the thought of placing pigment practically on my eyeball squicks me out). Instead, I tried Fast Lane on my upper lashlines, which wasn't a success. It looked decent at first, but after two hours the color had faded and transferred to my undereye area. Not a good look for a teal eyeliner.
13. NYX Suede Matte Lip Liner in Brooklyn Thorn
NYX has released a zillion new lip products in the past year, and this relentless focus on NEW NEW NEW ALL THE TIME has inevitably produced some duds. The lip liners in NYX's original formula are fabulous—creamy, opaque, and long-lasting—and I don't understand why NYX didn't add trendier colors to that range instead of releasing a totally new, and vastly inferior, formula. To be fair, Brooklyn Thorn is the only shade I've tried in the Suede Matte formula, but it's bad enough that I have no desire to buy any more. It's patchy, it drags so hard against my lips, and it doesn't even sharpen smoothly—the exposed wood is all rough and spiky.
Next up, my favorites of 2016! Did any beauty products disappoint you last year?

Joshua Jackson Discusses 'The Affair,' 'Dawson's' Pacey and His Return to TV
He may only be in his mid-thirties, but the instantly recognizable Joshua Jackson has been acting in TV and films for nearly a quarter-century. The actor broke out with a role in 1992's "The Mighty Ducks," but it was a little show on The WB called "Dawson's Creek" that made him a household name. A decade after he started playing the role of Pacey Witter, Jackson took the lead in Fox's sci-fi drama "Fringe," lasted five seasons.
Only a year after the end of "Fringe," Jackson is re-inventing himself again as ranch-owning, bereaved father and cuckold Cole Lockhart on Showtime's hit new drama "The Affair." It's a role that he's not only playing beautifully, but one that's also helped Jackson realize that a career in television need not end with the exhausting marathon of working on network shows.
The actor talked with Speakeasy about his return to TV, what makes "The Affair" so special, and making his mark as Pacey Witter.

We recommend that you DO NOT engage an OUTSIDE ADJUSTER, PUBLIC ADJUSTER OR PRIVATE ADJUSTER. You should file your claim directly with your insurance company and they will assign you an insurance adjuster. An outside adjuster may ask you to sign an agreement that will assign your claim payment rights and will charge you a fee, leaving you without enough money to complete necessary repairs which may make your property uninsurable. After an event such as a hurricane an insurance company may contract with an adjusting firm, however this is not the same as you hiring an adjuster yourself.
As a reminder, it is your responsibility as outlined in your policy to mitigate any damage if possible. For example, if a rock came through your window allowing wind driven rain to come in, you should do what you can do to prevent further damage. Doing nothing to prevent further damage may negate policy coverage. This does not mean that you should take a risk if it is unsafe to make temporary repairs.
We highly recommend that you take pictures of the damages. If it is an auto accident make sure to take pictures of any other vehicles involved too.
If you have a personal auto or home policy, below is a list of the claims phone numbers for the carriers we represent. Most of the carrier's claims departments are available 24 hours a day / 7 days a week. Some also have Mobile Apps or the ability to file a claim on their web sites. Check our "Company Links" page by pointing to the Resources Tab to be directed to the insurance company's web site.

Here's a release we appear to have slept on. Time to wake up. AngelMaker put out a monster of a debut full-length back in late February with "Dissentient". This North Vancouver 6-piece has managed to create one of the heavier and most fearsome Deathcore records we've heard in some time. In some ways, it breathes new life into the genre with some truly excellent moments and genre bending.
It's easy to recommend this album to all fans of the Deathcore genre and even just extreme music in general. The entirety of "Dissentient" is now live and streaming through both YouTube and Bandcamp. Give it a listen and show your support if you enjoy the madness.

Hello everyone. This is a bit of a rant.
For a little over a day, I have been working on setting up Apache off and on. It is frustrating because there are no docs for Debian's Apache to be found anywhere on the web. Also, Apache's docs are useless for Debian's Apache since Debian burst httpd.conf into several configuration files in various directories. So reading Apache's site is not going to help when one is trying to figure out where to put things since Apache states httpd.conf all over their docs.
My last hurdle to getting Apache set up is finding which file to edit to put my local perl libs into @INC in Apache so I can run my scripts in the browser without having to install modules into root's perl libs. I also need to know what to put into that file. There are no clear instructions for that.
Also, why did liblocal-lib-perl not update Apache to set my local libs in Apache along with setting up the local lib in my home directory? Could the program be configured to see if Apache is installed and ask if the user wants to include local libs in Apache? That would make things so much easier.
So, when it comes to needing docs, Debian Apache is in desperate need. Also the docs need to be simplified to include step by step instructions on what files need to be configured and how they need to be configured.
The first thing, in my opinion, to configure would be /etc/apache2/apache2.conf. The next file to be configured would be /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf. Then anything else like configuring Apache to look for local libs in users' home directories.
I am editing the configuration files nearly blind because there are no docs written specifically for Debian Apache configuration and having to get a lot of help from people here and on IRC. I am half guessing.
Sure modularization is good, but it is bad when there are no docs written to explain what goes where.
Right now I can not get my index.pl to load in my browser because my local libs are not recognized by Apache, and there are no Debian Apache configuration docs to tell me into which configuration file I need to put the list. It is extremely frustrating. I am sliding more towards just throwing caution to the wind and cpaning modules right into root's libs because my local libs are worthless without Apache being able to see them too.
Write docs please?!?!

Co-Infection with Paracoccidioidomycosis and Human Immunodeficiency Virus: Report of a Case with Esophageal InvolvementPages: 1099–1101More LessAbstract.
Paracoccidioiodomycosis (PCM) is a systemic and deep mycosis endemic in Latin America, especially in Brazil. In patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), PCM can manifest with prominent involvement of the reticuloendothelial system. There are no reports in the literature of esophageal involvement by PCM in that population. We report a case of PCM with pulmonary and esophageal involvement without radiologic evidence of an esophageal-bronchial fistula in an HIV-infected patient.
Bacterial Loads and Antibody Responses in BALB/c Mice Infected with Low and High Doses of Burkholderia pseudomalleiPages: 1102–1105More LessAbstract.
Profiles of Burkholderia pseudomallei persistence and antibodies in blood, spleen, liver, and lungs of infected BALB/c mice were investigated. Animals were infected intraperitoneally with low (6 colony-forming units) or high (230 colony-forming units) doses of B. pseudomallei. In the high-dose infected group, bacteria were found by culture in 100% of blood, liver, spleen and lung samples at 24 and 48 hours after infections; blood samples were 100% positive by polymerase chain reaction after 60 hours. Antibody responses in the high-dose infected group were low. These responses were detected in the low-dose infected group after 5 days, peaked at 7–14 days, and showed persistence until 28 days post-infection. Bacterial loads and antibody profiles varied according to the level of bacterial infections. This kinetic study, although in animals, provides crucial knowledge that might be useful for the development of a sensitive and specific diagnostic assay for patients with melioidosis.
Emergence of Pediatric Melioidosis in Siem Reap, CambodiaPages: 1106–1112More LessAbstract.
We describe the first cases of pediatric melioidosis in Cambodia. Thirty-nine cases were diagnosed at the Angkor Hospital for Children, Siem Reap, between October 2005 and December 2008 after the introduction of microbiology capabilities. Median age was 7.8 years (range = 1.6–16.2 years), 15 cases were male (38%), and 4 cases had pre-existing conditions that may have pre-disposed the patient to melioidosis. Infection was localized in 27 cases (69%) and disseminated in 12 cases (31%). Eleven cases (28%) were treated as outpatients, and 28 (72%) cases were admitted. Eight children (21%) died a median of 2 days after admission; seven deaths were attributable to melioidosis, all of which occurred in children receiving suboptimal antimicrobial therapy and before bacteriological culture results were available. Our findings indicate the need for heightened awareness of melioidosis in Cambodia, and they have led us to review microbiology procedures and antimicrobial prescribing of suspected and confirmed cases.
Increasing Incidence of Human Melioidosis in Northeast ThailandPages: 1113–1117More LessAbstract.
Melioidosis is a serious community-acquired infectious disease caused by the Gram-negative environmental bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei. A prospective cohort study identified 2,243 patients admitted to Sappasithiprasong Hospital in northeast Thailand with culture-confirmed melioidosis between 1997 and 2006. These data were used to calculate an average incidence rate for the province of 12.7 cases of melioidosis per 100,000 people per year. Incidence increased incrementally from 8.0 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 7.2–10.0) in 2000 to 21.3 (95% CI = 19.2–23.6) in 2006 (P < 0.001; χ2 test for trend). Male sex, age ≥ 45 years, and either known or undiagnosed diabetes were independent risk factors for melioidosis. The average mortality rate from melioidosis over the study period was 42.6%. The minimum estimated population mortality rate from melioidosis in 2006 was 8.63 per 100,000 people (95% CI = 7.33–10.11), the third most common cause of death from infectious diseases in northeast Thailand after human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and tuberculosis.
High Frequency of Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli in Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Patients with and without Diarrhea in Lima, PerúPages: 1118–1120More LessAbstract.
Diarrhea is still a prevalent health issue in HIV patients. Our objective was to characterize the different diarrheagenic E. coli (DEC) groups in stools from adult HIV patients. Cross sectional study: We enrolled HIV-positive and -negative patients with and without diarrhea from a tertiary-care center of Lima, Peru. Clinical data was recorded and a stool sample per patient was cultured. Multiplex PCR was used to detect different DECs. One hundred eighty-four participants were enrolled. The frequency of having at least one DEC was more common in HIV-positive than HIV-negative patients with diarrhea (42% versus 20%, P < 0.05). The enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC) was the most common DEC in patients with diarrhea, 13% in HIV patients. The diffusely adherent E. coli (DAEC) was only present in HIV positive patients with diarrhea (10.1%). Different types of DEC are frequent in stools from HIV-positive patients.
Imported Enteric Fever: Case Series from the Hospital for Tropical Diseases, London, United KingdomPages: 1121–1126More LessAbstract.
Our current knowledge of the clinical characteristics of enteric fever is drawn mainly from population-based studies in disease-endemic countries, and there are limited data published on cases in returning travelers. We report the clinical characteristics of enteric fever in 92 travelers returning to London, United Kingdom. Salmonella typhi and S. paratyphi resulted in an almost indistinguishable clinical picture. Rose spots and relative bradycardia were found only in a few patients. A total of 91% of the patients had a normal leukocyte count, which was associated with a markedly increased level of alanine aminotransferase in 82%. A total of 57% of the S. typhi isolates had decreased susceptibility to ciprofloxacin and resistance to nalidixic acid; these isolates were from southern Asia. Thirty percent were multidrug resistant; all were from southern Asia and Nigeria. None of the paratyphoid isolates were multidrug resistant but rates of decreased susceptibility to fluoroquinolones were higher than in S. typhi (74%).
Leptospirosis as a Cause of Fever in Urban BangladeshPages: 1127–1130More LessAbstract.
We tested paired sera from 584 febrile persons in an low-income urban community in Bangladesh for evidence of Leptospira infection. A total of 8.4% of the persons met criteria for definite or probable infection. Persons with leptospirosis were older than those with undifferentiated fever in this population. The dominant infecting serogroups in Bangladesh differed from serogroups commonly reported in nearby regions.
The Incremental Cost-Effectiveness of Engaging Private Practitioners to Refer Tuberculosis Suspects to DOTS Services in Jogjakarta, IndonesiaPages: 1131–1139More LessAbstract.
We aimed to evaluate the incremental cost-effectiveness of engaging private practitioners (PPs) to refer tuberculosis (TB) suspects to public health centers in Jogjakarta, Indonesia. Effectiveness was assessed for TB suspects notified between May 2004 and April 2005. Private practitioners referred 1,064 TB suspects, of which 57.5% failed to reach a health center. The smear-positive rate among patients reaching a health center was 61.8%. Two hundred eighty (280) out of a total of 1,306 (21.4%) new smear-positive cases were enrolled through the PPs strategy. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio per smear-positive case successfully treated for the PPs strategy was US$351.66 (95% CI 322.84–601.33). On the basis of an acceptability curve using the National TB control program's willingness-to-pay threshold (US$448.61), we estimate the probability that the PPs strategy is cost-effective at 66.8%. The strategy of engaging PPs was incrementally cost-effective, although under specific conditions, most importantly a well-functioning public directly observed treatment, short-course (DOTS) program.
Identification of Bartonella Infections in Febrile Human Patients from Thailand and Their Potential Animal ReservoirsPages: 1140–1145More LessAbstract.
To determine the role of Bartonella species as causes of acute febrile illness in humans from Thailand, we used a novel strategy of co-cultivation of blood with eukaryotic cells and subsequent phylogenetic analysis of Bartonella-specific DNA products. Bartonella species were identified in 14 blood clots from febrile patients. Sequence analysis showed that more than one-half of the genotypes identified in human patients were similar or identical to homologous sequences identified in rodents from Asia and were closely related to B. elizabethae, B. rattimassiliensis, and B. tribocorum. The remaining genotypes belonged to B. henselae, B. vinsonii, and B. tamiae. Among the positive febrile patients, animal exposure was common: 36% reported owning either dogs or cats and 71% reported rat exposure during the 2 weeks before illness onset. The findings suggest that rodents are likely reservoirs for a substantial portion of cases of human Bartonella infections in Thailand.
Household-Based Sero-Epidemiologic Survey after a Yellow Fever Epidemic, Sudan, 2005Pages: 1146–1152More LessAbstract.
From September through early December 2005, an outbreak of yellow fever (YF) occurred in South Kordofan, Sudan, resulting in a mass YF vaccination campaign. In late December 2005, we conducted a serosurvey to assess YF vaccine coverage and to better define the epidemiology of the outbreak in an index village. Of 552 persons enrolled, 95% reported recent YF vaccination, and 25% reported febrile illness during the outbreak period: 13% reported YF-like illness, 4% reported severe YF-like illness, and 12% reported chikungunya-like illness. Of 87 persons who provided blood samples, all had positive YF serologic results, including three who had never been vaccinated. There was also serologic evidence of recent or prior chikungunya virus, dengue virus, West Nile virus, and Sindbis virus infections. These results indicate that YF virus and chikungunya virus contributed to the outbreak. The high prevalence of YF antibody among vaccinees indicates that vaccination was effectively implemented in this remotely located population.
Asymptomatic Dengue Infection in a Cuban Population Confirms the Protective Role of the RR Variant of the FcγRIIa PolymorphismPages: 1153–1156More LessAbstract.
The role of human Fcγ receptors (FcγR) has been recognized considerably over the last years. These receptors vary in their affinity for IgG subclasses and the intracellular signals elicited by them. Allelic variants of FcγR genes may influence the biological phagocyte activity, accounting for an inherited pre-disposition to disease. The specific FcγRIIa (CD32) contains a polymorphic variant (H/R131) that has been associated to a reduced risk for developing dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF). Here, we investigated the role of this polymorphism in a very well-characterized group of Cuban individuals with antecedents of DHF, dengue fever (DF), or subclinical dengue infection. The HH131 genotype was significantly associated with dengue disease, either DF (*P = 0.016; odds ratio = 4.425; 95% confidence interval = 1.10–20.52) or DHF (P = 0.00018; odds ratio = 10.56; 95% confidence interval = 2.33–54.64) with respect to the subclinical infection.
Can Daytime Use of Bed Nets Not Treated with Insecticide Reduce the Risk of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever Among Children in Vietnam?Pages: 1157–1159More LessAbstract.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of bed net use and elucidate the effect of daytime bed net use on preventing dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) among children in Vietnam. We conducted a population-based cross-sectional survey and a matched case–control study in Khanh Hoa Province where not only some pre-schoolchildren but also some school children, who take a nap during lunch break prior to returning to school, used bed nets during the day. Among 36,901 children 2–10 years of age, most used untreated bed nets during the night (98.3%) compared with 8.4% during the day. The results of the case–control study, which defined 151 cases who were hospitalized with DHF in the provincial hospitals and 604 age-matched neighborhood controls, did not support our hypothesis that children using untreated bed nets during the day are less likely to be hospitalized with DHF (adjusted odds ratio = 0.56, 95% confidence interval = 0.23–1.39).
Evaluation of RepliVAX WN, a Single-Cycle Flavivirus Vaccine, in a Non-Human Primate Model of West Nile Virus InfectionPages: 1160–1167More LessAbstract.
West Nile virus (WNV) causes serious neurologic disease, but no licensed vaccines are available to prevent this disease in humans. We have developed RepliVAX WN, a single-cycle flavivirus with an expected safety profile superior to other types of live-attenuated viral vaccines. In this report we describe studies examining RepliVAX WN safety, potency, and efficacy in a non-human primate model of WNV infection. A single immunization of four rhesus macaques with RepliVAX WN was safe and elicited detectable neutralizing antibody titers and IgM and IgG responses, and IgG titers were increased in two animals that received a second immunization. After challenge with WNV, three of four immunized animals were completely protected from viremia, and the remaining animal showed minimal viremia on one day. In contrast, the unvaccinated animal developed viremia that lasted six days. These results demonstrate the efficacy and safety of RepliVAX WN in this primate model of WNV infection.
Rabies Exposure Risk among Foreign Backpackers in Southeast AsiaPages: 1168–1171More LessAbstract.
Rabies remains a problem in Southeast Asia where large numbers of backpackers visit each year. During May–June 2008, a survey study was conducted of foreign backpackers in Bangkok, Thailand to assess their risk of rabies exposure. Eight hundred seventy (870) questionnaires were collected and analyzed. The median age of the backpackers was 25.5 years. Most of them were European (68.4%), followed by North American (13.2%). Although 80.7% had sought health information before traveling, only 55.6% had received information about rabies. Only 18.1% had completed pre-exposure rabies vaccination (3 shots) before travel, whereas 70.9% had not been vaccinated for rabies at all. In this study, the incidence of being licked was 3.56%, and of being bitten 0.69%, on average stays of 30.06 days in Southeast Asia. More than a half (54%) of exposures occurred in the first 10 days after arrival in Southeast Asia.
Sources of Error in the Estimation of Mosquito Infection Rates Used to Assess Risk of Arbovirus TransmissionPages: 1172–1184More LessAbstract.
Infection rate is an estimate of the prevalence of arbovirus infection in a mosquito population. It is assumed that when infection rate increases, the risk of arbovirus transmission to humans and animals also increases. We examined some of the factors that can invalidate this assumption. First, we used a model to illustrate how the proportion of mosquitoes capable of virus transmission, or infectious, is not a constant fraction of the number of infected mosquitoes. Thus, infection rate is not always a straightforward indicator of risk. Second, we used a model that simulated the process of mosquito sampling, pooling, and virus testing and found that mosquito infection rates commonly underestimate the prevalence of arbovirus infection in a mosquito population. Infection rate should always be used in conjunction with other surveillance indicators (mosquito population size, age structure, weather) and historical baseline data when assessing the risk of arbovirus transmission.
Temporal Connections between Culex tarsalis Abundance and Transmission of Western Equine Encephalomyelitis Virus in CaliforniaPages: 1185–1193More LessAbstract.
Definition of targets for vector control requires an understanding of the relationship between vector abundance and the intensity of arbovirus transmission. Using an extensive surveillance dataset with observations from sentinel chicken flocks and mosquito traps paired in time and space, hierarchical autoregressive logistic regression models were developed to predict the probability of seroconversion in chickens for western equine encephalomyelitis virus (WEEV) based on the relative abundance of the principal vector, Culex tarsalis. After adjustments for confounders, the abundance of Cx. tarsalis 29–42 d before the date of chicken sampling was credibly associated with the risk of WEEV transmission in both the Central and Coachella Valleys, and a doubling of relative Cx. tarsalis abundance was associated with a 58% increase in the odds of seroconversion. The critical time windows identified in our study highlight the need for surveillance of vector populations and forecasting models to guide proactive vector control measures before the detection of transmission to sentinel chickens.
Antivenomic Assessment of the Immunological Reactivity of EchiTAb-Plus-ICP, an Antivenom for the Treatment of Snakebite Envenoming in Sub-Saharan AfricaPages: 1194–1201More LessAbstract.
The immunoreactivity of EchiTAb-Plus-ICP, an antivenom developed for the treatment of snakebite envenoming in sub-Saharan Africa, to venoms of seven Echis and Bitis species, was assessed by "antivenomics." This proteomic approach is based on the ability of an antivenom to immunodeplete homologous or heterologous venom proteins. Our results show an extensive cross-reactivity of this antivenom against all Echis and Bitis venoms studied, as revealed by the complete immunodepletion of the majority of venom components, including metalloproteinases, serine proteinases, C-type lectin-like proteins, some phospholipases A2 and L-amino acid oxidase. However, some phospholipases A2, disintegrins and proteinase inhibitors were immunodepleted to only a partial extent. These results support the hypothesis that immunizing horses with a mixture of the venoms of Echis ocellatus, Bitis arietans, and Naja nigricollis generates antibodies capable of recognizing the majority of components of medically-relevant homologous and heterologous viperid venoms of the genera Bitis and Echis from sub-Saharan Africa.

LIGO published the position of their gravitational wave on the sky when they announced that they had found something, so I was wondering how this could be done. While LIGO has more information that just timing, I decided to consider the case of reconstructing a position based just on the relative timing from two detectors.
I started with a coordinate system with the origin at the center of Earth (assumed to be a perfect sphere here). The z-axis points toward the north pole, the x-axis toward the equator at the Greenwich meridian and the y-axis 90 degrees east of the x-axis. I can then place the two detectors in this coordinate system (easiest using spherical coordinates). The time separation for a gravitational wave along some axis given by a unit vector u(θ,φ) is just
where v1 and v2 are the unit vectors pointing toward the two detectors, R is the radius of Earth, and c is the speed of light (the speed of the waves). If each detector can measure the time of the wave to some uncertainty σ and the relative timing uncertainty (typically from GPS) is negligible, I can define some likelihood that u is the correct vector as
Using this function for some test values, we can try to understand how pointing works. If the time separation is 0, then we expect to see most likely values along the great circle between the two detectors.
I will also note that this is plotting position on the sky in Earth coordinates. Earth is not in an inertial reference frame: it rotates and moves in space, so actually mapping this against the stars in the sky gets very complicated and I'll ignore that since it doesn't affect what I want to show. The coordinates are also spherical coordinates, which are non-Euclidean, so shapes look strange if you're not used to them. The curve above is actually the spherical version of a "straight" line. For a time separation of 8 ms, we see a thin ring that widens out as the resolution is degraded.
At 10 ms, we're getting a large separation, and the ring has shrunk almost to just a blob.
Basically, what seems to be going on is:
- The general shape of the likelihood distribution is a ring of positions corresponding to the measured time separation
- As the time separation increases, the size of the ring on the sky decreases
- When the separation is too large (requires a speed less than c), no position works well, so there is a sharp peak at the best (but still non-optimal) position.
- The ring is characteristic of having two detectors. The center of the ring never changes (there are actually two centers depending on the sign of the separation) and its position is determined by the positions of the detectors
- A third detector should break the degeneracy and allow for reconstruction of the position as a single point on the sky
- Since the measured position looks like a blob, it looks like the time separation is large enough for the timing uncertainty to prevent us from seeing a ring-like shape.

I am honored that "God Before Us" was published on the General Board of Discipleship Worship Website recently. You can find the musical arrangement on the General Board of Discipleship Website. Here is the text:
God, before us as we seek,
yours the path, our guiding.
Word our lamp and light of day,
show your will abiding.
God, behind us as we walk,
make our way unswerving.
Hands and lips in concert sing,
into freedom serving.
God, below us as we fall,
weakened knee our binding.
Race ahead, we take our cross,
strength in weakness finding.
God, above us as we reach,
yours the earth, our grounding.
With creation lift our praise,
guide our understanding.

Magic Games
Children and adults both love magic. Whether it is the complexities of David Blaine or the simple acts such as this top hat magic game! Magic is an intriguing art which allows people to become entertained and also use their creative imagination to figure out how exactly a trick was carried out!
This magic game is simple – your boy/girl is the magician here. They are not part of the crow but rather are the ones in charge of the crowd! It is up to them as to what they want to come out of the hat, well, not entirely however their imagination comes into play and they can guess what is to come out next.
The fact that they are given the role of the magician will in itself be a brilliant device to aid your child in becoming an independent and strong youth. It is games like this which lay the foundation for them to build upon, they will like to take control in social situations and understand that when they have the control, it is a lot more fun.
This game will help them with the creative abilities and will also expand and enhance their imagination.

In response to the rapidly changing COVID-19 situation, and with approval from all relevant oversight agencies, Unitek EMT has temporarily moved all classes online.
We do this to ensure the safety of our students, staff, and community partners. Together we can do our part to prevent the further spread of COVID-19 in Arizona and ultimately manage the crisis as a whole.
Be assured you will still receive the same robust EMT preparation that Unitek EMT is known for. Our proven online format offers the full training experience, including interactive instruction, hands-on practice, and the same expert faculty.
EMT Basic Training in Arizona
Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) are a vital link in the chain of healthcare. During an emergency, EMTs are dispatched to the scene by a 911 operator, and often work with police and fire department personnel. It is their responsibility to provide efficient, quality medical care and transport patients to the hospital. EMTs engage in high-risk work, which means it is absolutely critical they receive proper training. With our hands-on EMT basic training, you can join this group of dedicated healthcare providers and make a significant difference in people's lives.
14-Day EMT Boot Camp
The EMT program is currently offered at our training facility in Tempe, Arizona. It consists of a 14-Day Boot Camp with hands-on exercises, active learning, and clinical simulations. Taught by seasoned EMS professionals, the EMT program consists of 10 hours of ems instruction per day for 14 consecutive days. During the program, students participate in realistic emergency simulations to prepare them for success in the field.
Enrollment Requirements Include:
- Current American Heart Association Basic Life Support for Healthcare Provider Certification (AHA BLS CPR) – Available at Unitek or at an AHA CPR training center near you.
- High School Diploma, GED, or official transcript
- Proof of 9th Grade Reading Level
Key Advantages of the 14-Day EMT Training Program
Get NREMT Certified Quickly
The accelerated Boot Camp format prepares you for NREMT certification in less time than many other training programs.
Learn from Veteran EMS Professionals
Backed by years of on-the-job experience, our dedicated EMT instructors not only train you for your NREMT exam, they also equip you to succeed in the real world.
Experience Realistic Training Simulations
To develop your skills as an EMT, classroom instruction is enhanced with realistic disaster simulations, where students get hands-on experience assessing and responding to complex incidents.
Study Updated Curriculum
Courses are frequently updated to the latest standards set by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Advanced Level EMT Skills
The glucometer is used by EMTs to measure a patient's blood sugar level. This skill enables students to learn and understand glucometer basics as well as monitor a patients' glucose levels.
I.V. Maintenance.
Occasionally, patients need to be transferred from one facility to another with an I.V. already established. Through our training students will learn I.V. basics. Students will learn the I.V. basics, including the identification of medications used in I.V. therapy and monitoring the I.V. line. NOTE: this is not for initiating I.V.'s, it is to learn how to take care of a patient who already has one.
Advanced Airway Management.
This is a lifesaving procedure that helps unconscious patients maintain a secure airway. Students learn about endotracheal intubation, dual lumen airway devices, and other ways to help a patient breathe. Students will receive training on insertion of a supraglottic airway, which can be used when intubation has failed or when airway management is needed for trapped patients.
ALS – BLS Skills.
For students who want to become advanced level clinicians or work on a 911 ambulance, this training prepares EMT students to work with and assist a Paramedic. Designed by a paramedic; our course will teach you how to assist in setting up for procedures, for advanced airway, maintaining a sterile field, attaching leads for an electrocardiogram (EKG), setting up an automatic chest compression device and much more. When seconds count, be the one everyone can count on.
EMT Program Completion Certificate
After successful completion of the EMT Program, each student earns a certificate of completion, making them eligible to take the NREMT exam to obtain certification.

The Transmission of Women's Fertility, Human Capital and Work Orientation Across Immigrant Generations
, , ,
NBER Working Paper No. 14388
Using 1995-2011 Current Population Survey and 1970-2000 Census data, we find that the fertility, education and labor supply of second generation women (US-born women with at least one foreign-born parent) are significantly positively affected by the immigrant generation's levels of these variables, with the effect of the fertility and labor supply of women from the mother's source country generally larger than that of women from the father's source country and the effect of the education of men from the father's source country larger than that of women from the mother's source country. We present some evidence that suggests our findings for fertility and labor supply are due to at least in part to intergenerational transmission of gender roles. Transmission rates for immigrant fertility and labor supply between generations are higher than for education, but there is considerable intergenerational assimilation toward native levels for all three of these outcomes.

Due to a recent surge in internet traffic to RPLS Today and all of its social network pages, our Facebook page reached over 20,000 likes over the weekend. Our Facebook presence is growing faster than ever with no signs of slowing down or stopping.
In addition to the fantastic Facebook growth, our website has recently grown to over 8,000 registered members. Our other social endeavors are doing quite well also — our LinkedIn group has over 7,800 members, while our Twitter account has over 4,100 followers.
The increase in traffic can be mostly attributed to a recent website update over Thanksgiving weekend. The update has improved the visibility of the Community Forums and news posts, as shared on Facebook and other social networks. The shared posts now include better formatting and improvements to the underlying SEO-related code.
The update hasn't been without issues, however, but further updates in the near future will be implemented to rectify the highest priority issues. We'll continue to work on future updates to clear up any other remaining issues and to add new features.

Joan Manuel Serrat was born on December 27, 1943. He started his career in music in the early Sixties, first as a member of a pop band in school, and after 1965 as a solo artist.
In 1968, Spain chose Serrat to represent the country in the Eurovision Song Contest. He would sing the song 'La, la, la'. After he asked to sing it in Catalan, the Spanish authorities didn't agree. At the time, the dictator Francisco Franco was repressing the Catalan language. Defiantly, Serrat refused to sing the Spanish-language version, and was hurriedly replaced by Massiel, who went on to win the contest with her Spanish-language interpretation. A recording of Serrat's version of 'La, la, la' still exists on this single, a souvenir of a Eurovision performance that never came to be.
