Well, this might be a dampener for those of you who have been eagerly awaiting an iPad killer in the market this year. Latest reports reveal that the tablet scene will remain pretty much unchanged for the remainder of 2010. And so the only tablet you have to make do with this holiday season will be the iPad.
Of course being an iPad killer is not an easy job and neither is it likely that any new product will romp to glory, but options are definitely required to make the tablet market a bit more competitive.
The basic problem is that despite companies like LG, Samsung, Motorola and other having promising products in the pipeline, lack of time will prevent them from bringing out these products in 2010. And even if they do, there is almost no chance that they will outsell the Apple iPad.
And to become a true iPad killer, product has to sell more units than the iPad. But that should not mean that the product should not be just cheaper than the iPad. If this does not happen you might as well see a deluge of products, hurriedly assembled and perhaps quite cheap too, but offering very little or none of the cutting edge features in the iPad, let alone bettering them.
The Samsung Galaxy tablet looked the most likely top-class tablet to hit the market this year, but as the report points out, the product may be far from ready yet. In the recent demo videos, the device could not even complete a call that was being made from it. LG Optimus, ViewPad 7 and Asus are no better off and look highly unlikely to sell much in 2010, if at all they are able to roll out devices this year.
The only silver lining is that manufacturers are taking their time to actually come out with products worthy of taking up space in the tablet arena. This is a new genre of computers we are looking at, and there are no two ways that Apple has set the bar really high.
At the same time it is not easy to come out with a 'good' tablet. For starters a good OS is imperative. But how many manufacturers have the ability to churn out one like the iOS?
Therefore even if 2011 can bring a better product than the iPad, it should be worth the wait!


text: Culture Undiscovered: ASU's Vagina Monologues: A Discourse Share Tweet Email Print Feminism has been good to me. In high school, it gave me the guts to do simple things like question what I was hearing in my Catholic school's marriage classes and shut down idiots who said women weren't funny, and in college it's inspired me to demand the best for myself and others, often by getting involved more seriously in efforts to end violence against women. The Vagina Monologues, Eve Ensler's groundbreaking first play, is a combination of all of these things. Chances are you've heard of it, as it's performed about 3500 times around the world every year and has given birth to V-Day, a movement to end violence against women and girls globally. The Vagina Monologues voice all of the thoughts that we're sometimes too afraid or polite to admit to having, in ways that are brave, honest, heart wrenching, and yes, funny, all at the same time. I loved the play the first time I read it; I'm in awe of the women who make it happen now that I've seen it here at ASU. I sat down with director Ashley Smith for what was intended to be a quick Q&A, but because I just couldn't shut up, it turned into a full-blown conversation. Below is the best of what we said, verbatim. I hope what she had to say inspires you to get involved, even if that starts just by having talks like this of your own. How did you get involved with the Vagina Monologues? Seven years ago, I saw a flyer for the Vagina Monologues. I had no idea what it was. At that time I was in a really unhealthy relationship, I was with my abuser, and I was still trying to figure out if I could make things work. It was actually sitting in the audience that I realized that I deserved better, and I wasn't going to stand for it anymore. The following year was a big year for me, because I almost lost my life to my abuser. I also became a part of the Vagina Monologues. I auditioned, and I got a small part. So, I've been here ever since. That's what's great about this play, is that it lets women reclaim power over their lives. That's so important given the current political rhetoric surrounding vaginas and women's reproductive health, women's health in general. It's obviously really scary, and none of it involves women. So something like this is a great opportunity for women to get involved in the conversation, which, it's so strange that we have to say that women need to get involved, because women should be the ones having the conversation in the first place. Absolutely. You know vagina, the word vagina, makes people uncomfortable. Like, "Oh my god, what did you just say?" To me, that's part of the reason why we're here -- it's to de-stigmatize that word, vagina, to make it so that it's part of our everyday language. What do you want us to call it, if we're not allowed to talk about our vaginas, what do you want us to say? And we get protestors, people saying that we're vulgar, but they don't realize that we have a cause, that we raise money to end violence against women. We're trying to break that silence and make people uncomfortable, because when you make people uncomfortable, that's what inspires change. Exactly. I think it's great that you see men coming to these things, you see kids coming to these things, because I know some people will be like, "Oh my god a kid was there, that's so inappropriate," but what could be less inappropriate than talking about women's health, women being happy, and women having actual sexual lives? Immediately people want to say that that's inappropriate, but that's so strange to me because if I had a kid this is the first place I'd bring them, somewhere that's progressive, and somewhere that offers a different view of women's sexuality than what they're always getting, which is video girls and stuff like that. This is real female sexuality, and not objectification. Yeah, they see it. They see it in commercials, they see it in music videos, they're saturated with it. So, why not give them a realistic view of women's sexuality? It opens their minds, and if we can create a way for them to talk about their "down theres," whether they're boys or girls, that helps to reduce abuse. It's more likely that your children will feel comfortable talking to you. And then if there is peer pressure or something, they'll be able to reach out because you've broken that line and they think, if I can go to this kind of show with you, then I can talk to you about anything. All of the proceeds from ASU's production of the Vagina Monologues went to local organization Kaity's Way and V-Day's international spotlight campaign for the women and girls of Haiti. Learn about Kaity's Way, which teaches local teens about dating violence, at their website, and for all things V-Day related go to vday.org.

text: CQC report on state of care in mental health services (21 July 2017) The Care Quality Commission (CQC) published an important report yesterday, looking at the state of care in specialist mental health services across England. Their findings highlight many of the concerns that The National Autistic Society has been raising about the number of autistic people in inpatient mental health hospitals in England, sometimes for long periods, and about excessive restraint and over-medication. The report is based on inspections the CQC has carried out across all NHS and independent specialist mental health services between 2014 and 2017. The report is timely, given that NHS England is almost two years through its Transforming Care programme, which aims to support people with a learning disability and/or on the autism spectrum, out of inappropriate mental health units and into the community, where they can be nearer their families and support networks. What do we think? Chapter 3.5 is dedicated to autism and learning disabilities. Here are some of the key points: Inspectors frequently found people who had been in hospital for a long time. In some cases their care plans lacked discharge planning information. More community services were rated good or outstanding by the CQC than inpatient ones: 80% good and 9% outstanding in the community; 64% good and 9% outstanding in inpatient. Over a quarter (27%) of inpatient services were rated 'Requires improvement'. There are concerns about safety, including how often restraint and medication were being used, in some inpatient units. However, the CQC also found examples where staff had managed to reduce these. Tim Nicholls, Policy Manager at The National Autistic Society, said: "The National Autistic Society welcomes this report, which reflects many of our concerns about the number of autistic people in inpatient mental health hospitals in England. "Latest NHS figures show that, despite NHS England's Transforming Care programme, the number of autistic people in mental health hospitals is actually increasing. And, worryingly, the CQC have identified that in too many cases people's care plans don't include any discharge planning at all. This should be in place as soon as someone is admitted. "Being stuck in inpatient care for a long period, in some cases a long way from home and family, can be extremely damaging and often causes people's mental and physical health to deteriorate. Long waiting lists for community services show the need to develop more support which can meet people's needs within their existing community. "We need leadership from the Government and NHS England, backed up with the funding needed to ensure that autistic people are able to benefit from the Transforming Care programme as they should. Autistic people must not be left behind." Find out more about NHS England's Transforming Care programme, and how you could help shape decisions in your area here. This story has been covered widely in the media, including by the BBC. Read the full CQC report here.

Male professional, living in London, age 54
I've been carrying the prayer card for several months and have it with me now, in the departure lounge waiting for a flight from Beirut to Amman. It reminds me of the importance of what can sometimes seem like dry and technocratic discussions between governments. Behind the words and statistics are real people who have taken their lives in their hands to reach safety. It's worth people in a privileged position being reminded of that. I have had some harrowing discussions n the last two days with people directly affected by the Syrian conflict. A group of parents of Syrian children at a school were angry at lives disrupted, living in small rooms, getting by with menial occupations and the guests of Lebanese whose hospitality has been pretty much exhausted by the scale of the crisis. Today we talked to men and women from Aleppo, Damascus and Latakia who are doing what they can to bring sanity through direct action at the local level. I hope they're getting some traction in a terrible situation dominated by violence. The prayer card reminds me of the stakes involved.
I also took the prayer card sailing on the boat this summer - one of my favourite sources of peace and enjoyment. There was an implicit contrast between my gentle summer meanderings in and around Chichester Harbour and the possibly desperate voyage, which brought the card to Europe. I hope the person who carried it survived the journey and is now somewhere where he or she can enjoy doing things because they bring pleasure and not just because they're necessary for survival.

One has always argued for the need of product management when it comes to the government. Civil servants as Product Managers are familiar with the implementation of schemes and are clear about the roadmap. Planning, time, scope and costs are great tools for making strategic decisions that should help them do a good job...
There are several beacons of hope in this country, which are bringing about a change and are committed to taking forward the dream of our Prime Minister Narendra Modi who wishes to create a New India. Of course, it is not possible without those who are all making an equal contribution to it.
K J Alphons
Private sector participation or Public Private Partnership (PPP), which was conceived more than a decade ago has made dramatic improvements in the way projects have got implemented. The most crucial aspect though, has been to figure out the ways by which it can be scaled nationwide touching all the critical sectors of infrastructure
Hari Sankaran
Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) is the largest financial institution in the country with over Rs 25 lakh crore in assets, which is over 15 per cent of India�s GDP of Rs 134 lakh crore. With around Rs 40,000 crore profit, last fiscal, LIC is the most profitable entity in the country, next only to the RBI, which transferred Rs 66,000 crore
V K Sharma
The insurance sector in India has seen landmark changes in the last two years in the form of enactment of the Insurance Laws (Amendment) Act, 2015 and the various regulatory changes that have really created an environment in which the insurance sector can grow in a really big way in the coming years.
G Srinivasan
The Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana (PMJDY has successfully opened nearly 29 crore accounts in the last 30 months of which 17 crore are in rural areas and 12 crore are in urban areas.
Charan Singh
Dayanand Prasad is a middleaged man from Nalanda, Bihar. He suffers from Polio but his handicap did not prevent him from becoming a Village Level Entrepreneur (VLE) under the CSC Scheme and enrolling as many as 35,000 people for the UIDAI.
In May 2017, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said Artificial Intelligence (AI) would drive human race. It could be debated whether there would be any job left or not. However, experts say there is huge possibility of job creation through AI.
It is important to note that till few years back the terms like digital transactions, Apps etc, were confined only to the literate and more specifically to the urban population. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has sensed that his ambitious target of 20 billion digital transactions this year and rapidly increasing to 100 billion by 2022
One of the greatest risk takers in India�s modern history is Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Through his radical economic reforms, which threw away the conventional piecemeal approach, gave a tight slap to those slumbering under the shadows of economic slump
Job creation, unarguably, is one of the most critical issues facing not only the Indian economy but also the world as a whole. Job creation is critically important not only from an economic point of view but it also has a wider impact on social indicators such as health and education, and even law and order.
Under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi, we are seeing the concrete results of his efforts. Increasingly, agriculture is not found to be remunerative any more.

A driving force in automotive
PLA (Poly Lactic Acid) bioplastics are today increasingly becoming the material of choice for automotive applications – from under-the-hood components to visible interior parts.
From an environmental point of view, PLA products have a reduced carbon footprint and a high biocontent. From a functional requirement point of view, high heat PLA offers heat resistance up to 140°C, impact resistance, UV resistance, high gloss and excellent colorability, dimensional stability and will withstand the demanding conditions in today's engine compartment. This makes PLA an excellent alternative to most polyesters (PC, PET, PBT) as well as polystyrenes (ABS), polyolefines (such as PP) and polyamides (PA6).
One of our partners has developed the Plantura™ family of high heat PLA compounds – based on our lactides. Interior trim parts and an air filter box have been developed and made from Plantura, which are 95% biobased.
PLA: Performance materials for automotive
Air filter part made with Plantura biobased PLA compound by Röchling
Plantura parts are proven to perform. In under-the-hood parts, the fiber reinforced material provides thermal resistance up to 140°C. It also delivers outstanding impact resistance down to -30°C. This filter box was mounted in a vehicle and tested for 150,000 km without any problems emerging.
Interior part made with Plantura biobased PLA compound by Röchling
For interior trim parts, Plantura demonstrates impressive scratch and UV resistance – critical for aesthetic trims. In fact the excellent colorability and high gloss of PLA can be further boosted by adding bio-fillers for a more natural look. Furthermore, the material displays excellent hydrolytic resistance (tested at 100% humidity at 70°C).

We met in 2014 in Paris.
27 is a very important number for us. Julien was born May 27th, we got married on May 27th and I was 27 years old. I gave birth to my first boy on that same year, I was 27 years old. My second boy was born and got the bed 27 at 9.27am. Of course, my social security number ends with a 27.
Among many projects, under our company Maisons Julien & Kelly Dassault, we decided to open our very first shop 27, in Lisboa; the city we chose to live in because I am luso-decendant and also because we fall in Love with the Lisboeta endless summer.
We are travelers. Japan. Mexico, Danemark, United-Kingdom, Spain, United-States, Israel, Palestine, Lebanon, Colombia, France, Portugal, Italy… those are the last 2 years visited countries. We always travel with our kids and try to discover the local culture, the food and the local feelings. Travelling is our way to find our bread for the shop.
We love beautiful products but to be honest, it does take time as they are all over the world. In those streets, in their museums, we have brought back not only ideas but brands, partners, products that are not at every corners.
In one place, 27 Lisboa spreads who we are. Just for you. We have travelled, so you do too.
We hope, I hope, you will enjoy this experience and our selection. And that you will always come back because as I say: who comes once to Portugal, always comes back.

Twists, also widely referred to as two-strand twists, are a hairstyle created by twisting two sections of hair around one another to the ends. Sections of hair may range from large to small. While flat twists work well on different textures, twists generally work better on completely natural hair as the ends usually hold together without additional help from bands or barrettes. Twists can be combined with other styles, such as flat twists, braids and afros. Also known as: Two-strand twists
Benefits of Twist Styles
Two-strand twists are a great protective style because once you create them, you can leave them in for days or weeks. You're able to cleanse and condition your hair while in twists if you want to wear them for a while. They are very low-maintenance and do a great job of protecting your hair's ends, provided you pay the ends some attention with moisturizing while you wear twists.
This is an easy style to create and works well on hair of nearly all lengths. Once they're in, simply cover or wrap your hair at night to keep them neat.
Twists also work well in combination with other natural styles. You can flat twist the front of your hair to the crown and leave remaining lengths in two-strand twists. You might also get creative by fashioning the same set of twists into an updo, one big braid or ponytail or simple bun. There are a variety of styling possibilities you can attempt beginning with this one hairdo. Plus, when you're tired of leaving your hair twisted, unravel them and you have another hairstyle: the twist-out.
What Products Should I Use for Twisting?
Until you find tried-and-true favorites, you may have to experiment with different products to get the final look and hold you want in this style. A good degree of hold helps twists keep their shape without unraveling or frizzing up too soon, but steer clear of tacky, heavy gels. You have many options that are better for your hair.
Some suggestions for twisting products include:
- As I Am Twist Defining Cream ($10)
- Eco Styler Olive Oil Styling Gel ($12)
- TGIN Twist & Define Cream ($10)
What to Do If Your Twists Never Come out Right
Although it's a simple hairstyle to create, not everyone gets it perfect the first (or fifth) time. You may need to practice more, paying special attention to the size of each section you're twisting; your results will be more uniform if you make sure each section is even. You may need to experiment with products to find the best ones for you. Also consider whether you get better results on wet, damp or dry hair—your final outcome will differ depending on what you begin with. One of the most important things to remember when creating your twists is to begin with two sections that are even. If one section is thicker and/or longer than the other, you won't be able to create a uniform twist down the entire length of that section. You'll have to "borrow" from the other section, leading to an uneven twist.
Sleep on a satin or silk pillowcase to help preserve your twists at night.
Do I Need to Add Extensions When Styling Twists?
No, you don't need to add extension hair when creating twists, but some women want a longer lasting set of twists or twists that are lengthy, so they may add synthetic hair for a Senegalese or Marley twist hairstyle. You might choose extensions if you're transitioning and can't achieve a full, uniform twist look quite yet. You can also add in colored extension hair if you want to create a funky or different look than your usual one. Some women with fine hair may find extensions give them a fuller style. However, extensions aren't at all necessary.

Got another update from Maj. McWherter on the progress of the 709th, the medical support company which left a week or so ago from Peoria. There are 75 National Guard members who are in that unit. Thanks too to the fine FRG leader for helping me keep you, the public, in touch with the 709th. From the Major:
I wanted to provide an update as to how the unit is progressing through our post mobilization. The unit received all of the equipment needed for our tour in Iraq. The unit has experienced, cold, rain, and now snow. It is suppose to snow 6 inches this evening, rain then freeze and be in the 50's tomorrow.
I have included a few more picture, depicting the soldiers in formation, a picture of the gym in the early morning hours with the snow on the ground. I have also included a few of the photos of the soldiers practicing medical skill in a simulated MASCAL situation. Over the next three days the soldiers will be working in the base, troop medical clinic, conducting patient encounters and having an opportunity to execute a similar mission as to what they will experience in Iraq.
Here are some pictures…..

Do wish oneday someone would modify the game tiles at end so the game was completable if it was ever possible.
Hi tjohnson, yes the conversion from spectrum caused the bugs where the tiles would block some areas, seen in these images http://www.cpc-power.com/index.php?page=detail&onglet=dumps&num=621Couldnt see a fixed version to download but does have some pokes listed
@hERMOL over at CPCRulez has just uploaded a new crack of The Covenant with the bugs fixed (although I haven't tested the game myself to prove this!).
Unfortunately I've noticed another bug in this crack; the sound effect that occurs whenever you lose energy keeps repeating forever and never stops. I've already uploaded this crack to NVG and I only noticed it after I uploaded it.
Thought I would this morning have a quick look at adding more colour to the Amstrad version rather than just porting.
Loved The Covenant. I had the copy that came free with Amstrad Action (issue 8 May 1986)and played it for hours, completely unaware that it couldn't actually be completed. Maybe thats why PSS allowed it to be a cassette cover freebie!
Are we saying that the Covenant has been fixed and can now be completed?
Yes! The entry for The Covenant on CPC-POWER documents the five screens where the scenery prevents the player from reaching objects or exits. The new crack modifies these screens so that it is now possible to reach them.
Bad Behavior has blocked 450 access attempts in the last 7 days.

Won't you consider joining me on this May challenge?
I am not a natural when it comes to cleaning. In fact, sometimes I think my DNA is allergic to it! However, I know that if I am to care for my home, and more importantly my family, I need to persevere in creating a clean, peaceful home environment (not a perfect one!).
31 Days to Clean is about the "why" and the vision and the heart for taking care of our domains. Each day I encourage you with some thoughts and ideas, and then we put those ideas to action.
After each days reading, you will be given two challenges:
The Mary Challenge -Something you do that encourages/engages your heart
The Martha Challenge – Specific cleaning tasks
Friends, 31 Days to Clean is a faith journey towards ruling, subduing, and loving. We are forgoing perfection; we are choosing life.
You can read more about it and download the book for a nominal fee, here. It is even Kindle-friendly, but (sadly, for me, not Nook friendly. But you could get it to work on the Nook, you just have to manually transfer the files as it is a PDF.)
The challenge begins May 1! Ready, Set, Pray!

It turns out that alt+tabbing doesn't turn off your webcam.
Not content to let Ilyes "Stephano" Satouri take the award for livestreaming gaffe of the month, a League of Legends player has been caught masturbating during a live match.
Andrew "Slooshi" Pham was livestreaming one of his rounds earlier today, when he decided to alt-tab, watch some porn and entertain a brief visit from Rosie Palm and her five daughters. Unfortunately, he forgot to turn off the livestreaming program he was using to capture his game. The program captured both the on-screen action - "Shower and Massage with hot beauty Asian Kina Kai" courtesy of SoapyMassage.com - and 17-year-old Slooshi's, uh, appreciation of the video.
Rather than curl up into a ball and wish for death, Slooshi seems to be taking the gaffe in his stride. Once he got a grip on the situation, he changed the banner of his streaming site to read "Got caught fapping AMA" and has even joked that his impromptu genital fondling was a legitimate "tactic."
Slooshi isn't the first victim of accidental livestreaming. Last month, small time DOTA streamer, Zyori, became infamous when he failed to turn off his streaming program before wandering around semi-naked. Viewers were treated to the sight of Zyori, naked from the waist down, scratching his scrotum and spending a minute appreciating its scent.
More recently, professional StarCraft 2 player, Illyes "Stephano" Satouri, was suspended from play for a month following a series of off-color jokes about child abuse he made during a game he assumed was private.

A few years back, one of our other COPD health pros, Jane Martin, wrote an informative post about Cough, and Keeping Your Airways Clean. I thought it might be helpful to revisit this topic and update you on the latest techniques and technologies.
COPD Is an Airway Clogging Disease
COPD has three main symptoms:
- Progressive shortness of breath
- Mucus-producing cough
- Wheezing
And actually, the first and third symptoms listed above are often made worse by the mucus production that triggers coughing. Mucus, also called sputum (by health care professionals) or phlegm (by laypersons) is a thick secretion in the airways that builds up and blocks already narrowed airway passages.
Also, if the airways are not cleared sufficiently or quickly enough, the mucus becomes a breeding ground for bacteria and other germs, leading to further complications.
So, learning how to clear your airways effectively can not only make it easier to breathe and stay active, it can also help you stay healthier.
Mucus Is Not Always a Bad Thing
Mucus does play a role in keeping you healthy. That's why your airways and immune system produce it. It's only when it is excessive or doesn't move around in the respiratory system that it becomes a problem.
Mucus is meant to trap unwanted particles, such as dust, hair and germs, and keep them from moving deeper into your airways. The mucus lies over tiny little hair-like structures in the airways called cilia. These cilia move like waves to help move the mucus and what's trapped within it up and out when you cough.
Unfortunately, cigarette smoke and other irritants can prevent the cilia from working as they should. Add to that your weakened lung functioning when you have COPD, and the mucus ends up just sitting in your airways and getting "stickier."
Cough, and Keeping Your Airways Clean
And that leads to much more difficult breathing.
What You Can Do to Clear Your Airways
There are two approaches to keeping your airways clear. They can involve medication, lifestyle changes and non-invasive therapies. The other approach is to use technology and medical devices. Let's start with the first few strategies.
- Stay as hydrated as you can. Drink lots of water, unless your doctor advises otherwise, due to other medical issues. Staying hydrated will help thin the secretions in your airways, making the mucus less "sticky."
- Learn how to cough effectively. So often, people who have COPD cough shallowly, resulting only in not producing mucus and increased breathlessness. To cough effectively and productively, sit up straight but bending slightly forward with your arms supported.
Take a few deep breaths and relax as much as you can. Next, breathe in deeply, letting your belly expand. Pause & hold the breath for 3 seconds or so, then open your mouth to exhale, coughing shortly and sharply. Try to spit any mucus you bring up into a tissue right away, but if you must inhale, do it by taking short nasal sniffs through the inhalation. This will help keep you from re-inhaling the mucus.
You may have to follow this procedure several times to get rid of all the mucus. Using your bronchodilator medicine or your nebulizer before working on your cough can also help greatly to loosen things up and relax your airways.
- Ask your doctor about chest physiotherapy. This is usually a combination of two techniques, called postural drainage and percussion. With postural drainage, you position yourself in such a way that gravity helps to clear the secretions from your airways. There are many different positions that can be used, depending on your individual needs.
Percussion is a way of cupping the hands and clapping on the chest and back to loosen secretions, thereby making them easier for you to cough up. It is often performed by a respiratory therapist, but a caregiver can also be trained in the technique.
- Take an expectorant or mucolytic medication. These come in both prescription and over-the-counter varieties, but always check with your physician before adding any kind of medication to your treatment plan. If approved, expectorants can be helpful in loosening mucus and making it easier for you to cough up. Mucolytics thin your thick and sticky mucus.
Using Technology to Clear Your Airways
Using the methods above is certainly the place to start when it comes to clearing your airways on a daily basis. But some people may need a little more help, and that's where modern technology can give traditional medicine a boost. Airway clearing devices can vibrate and loosen mucus, making it easier for you to cough it out.
The good news is that these devices are easy to get hold of (with a prescription) and also relatively inexpensive to buy. If your doctor recommends using one of these devices, be sure to get a respiratory therapist to show you and/or your caregiver how to use it effectively.
Here are some of the airway clearance devices you may have available to you:
Positive Expiratory Pressure Therapy, or PEP for short. This type of device requires you to inhale through a mask or mouthpiece and then exhale against a one-way valve that provides some level of resistance. This creates a pressure in your airways that helps them to open and move the mucus higher, where it can be coughed out. The level of resistance is set by your healthcare team. There are various brands of PEP devices, including AeroPEP ®, PariPEP ® and AstraPEP ®.
High-Frequency Chest Wall Oscillator, or HFCWO for short. This device uses an inflatable vest that vibrates and massages the chest wall, similarly to chest percussion. It also helps to loosen your mucus, so that you can cough it up. Current brands of HFCWO devices include the Medpulse ® Respiratory Vest System and the Vestâ"¢Airway Clearance System.
Combination Devices. These airway clearing devices combine PEP therapy with a chest wall oscillator. The most common brands are the Flutterâ"¢ and the Acapellaâ"¢. You use the Flutter while standing or sitting and the Acapella while lying down.
- Acoustic Impedence Device. This type of handheld device is a similar concept to the others, but it uses the vibration of low-frequency sound waves to get the mucus moving up out of your lower airways. The Lung Flute ® is the most common brand in this category.
In Summary
Most people who have COPD and experience the symptom of excess mucus production will need to use one or more of these airway clearance methods. Work closely with your health care team to determine which strategy will be right for you.
Provide feedback to your team as to effectiveness of the methods you use and ask for help as needed. If you practice consistent pulmonary hygiene, it will help you to avoid such complications as a respiratory infection.

|Little Mohammed Musa, nine months didn't
commit attempted murder in Pakistan,
despite what police tried to say.
Well, technically, in Pakistan one did. At least attempted murder.
Pakistani police, in a move that made them a worldwide laughing stock last month charged a nine month old kid with attempted murder.
Authorities claimed the kid joined family members in attacking police and gas company officials with stones and wooden rods.
Yeah, I'm sure little Mohammed Musa was the ring leader of this crime spree, too.
What really seems to be going on, according the kid's grandfather, Mohammed Yasin, is corruption, according to the RT report:
"Yasin claims the police had fabricated the charged because they were colluding in a plot to illegally evict them from their land and had illicityly obtained an order to sever the gas connection.
'The police and gas company officials came without any notice and started removing gas meyters from houses. Residents started protesting and blocked the road but ended the protest when senior police officers arrived in the area and assured them that no injustice would be done,' Yasin told AFP."
Now, after weeks of listening to the world talk about how stupid and moronic the Pakistani police force is, the kid is off the hook.
According to the New York Times, police have now decided to drop the charges.
Apparently, maybe it is a little wimpy of police and government officials to be afraid of a nine month old kid, who can't even say the words "attempted murder" much less commit the crime.
Little Mohammed Musa still faces charges of First Degree Cuteness, at least in the Worldwide Court of Public Opinion.

Wow, it has been a packed week! Three birthdays to prepare for (my Joyful One is turning THREE tomorrow!), the baby isn't letting me sleep (nearly delusional from deprivation), and the usual busyness of life seems to be overtaking me. And y'all know about counseling, which is already kicking my butt. Things are just a bit tough all around. Not bad, just complicated.
Anyhow, on Thursday God woke me up at 3:21 am. I prayed, I sang worship songs to myself, I watched my baby's sweet face and murmured mama love to her for three hours. Somewhere in that time, God spoke that we were about to leave our church, the ONLY church I've belonged to as a believer. He showed me a picture of deep roots, gnarled together, knit tight. Community.
My first thought? "Um, no." Seriously, I thought I was losing it because I've been just so sleep deprived. Not wanting to miss what God might choose to speak to me, I asked the Music Man to be listening for anything the Lord may want to tell him during the day.
He came home and said, "I feel like I'm supposed to ask you if we're changing churches." Gulp. Well, ok then. We were in agreement, but felt we needed to wait for one more confirmation because it is such a hey-uge decision. It came first thing Sunday morning.
We discussed a list of possible churches, and the top of the list is another Vineyard church, just 30 miles closer (each way) to our home. On paper, this close Vineyard looks perfect. There's just one leeetle issue, and that's that the "new" possible church is the church the Not-So-Casual-Observer belongs to. So she and I will have to have a chat to discuss what that would look like.
After church, I went into a meeting with the women's ministry team and was absolutely blown away by what I heard. Ransomed Grace just came out and asked if I had anything to say to the team. I told them what God was saying to the Music Man and I, and time stopped as I awaited her answer.
She said, "Well, the reason I'm not upset (I was crying by this point) is that God's already told me that it's time for your family to live in community. And I think you're supposed to stay in the Vineyard. Community. Vineyard."
Did I mention that the church we're most considering is called the Vineyard Community Church? I see God's fingerprints all over this situation. I'm giving up my leadership position, my teaching, essentially all my service, but I have perfect peace.
I'm so sad, but feel like this mourning is a good thing. I'm feeling something, and that's better than I was doing when I started counseling four months ago.
We went to talk with our pastor today, because we feel strongly that we should not leave our current church without his blessing. I want to be sent out, for there to be no question that we're following God's call. I want my old pastor and my new pastor to be able to have a chat about where we fit into church life. I feel like I finally understand why the Bible says "A good name is better to be chosen than great riches." I care so much about maintaining my good name, and want to be bridge builders within these two churches.
After talking with Johnny, the plan is to do a week on and a week off at a new place, then talk with him about how we feel after we've gotten the lay of the land. This is sacred ground here, and I want this to go exactly the way God wants it to.
We're so excited, even though this comes at great expense. Please pray that God would help us know that we're home the minute we walk in the door, and that our kids would transition seamlessly.
It's time for a new adventure!

Hi all, My apologies for the slow response. Thank you to Jim Blake who has seen these previously often it seems, and hit the nail on the head with the morphology, and to everybody also for the suggestions, some of which also hinted at Paraonidae and at Questidae (now in Orbiniidae), which do have similar chaetation. I have rather limited material as yet but I think it's a Levinsenia-like abranchiate paraonid. I'm sure they're reasonably common in the environment, but even at 300 um sieving aren't being retained. They are so thin - of small nematode dimensions. I've put an order in for a few ethanol fixed samples from the next sampling at this offshore iron sands site. Most of the polychaetes able to live in this material are very small, but getting unfixed live cores to process with meiofaunal techniques is difficult because of the logistics. There are other worms of interest I've seen, and I'd be happy to provide some of these taxa for sequencing if I can get them. Thanks for the offer Adrian. I was sent the interesting paper of *Giere, Ebbe & Erseus (2007) on Questa, which also includes a new Levinsenia of this type from Hawaii. Much appreciated. *Giere, O.; Ebbe, B.; Erseus, C. 2007. Questa (Annelida, Polychaeta, Orbiniidae) from Pacific regions - new species and reassessment of the genus Periquesta. Organisms Diversity & Evolution 7(4): 304-319. The polygordiid with chaeta was not relevant - I was told it is very unlikely any such things exist. The dubious genus Chaetogordius of Moore is probably based on fragments of two taxa.

When the goal is to improve student results, where do we start?
The quick answer is simple: find a way for those students to learn better. But that's just the easy answer.
Whether we follow Bloom, Marzano or Danielson, we must recognize that students today have themselves changed the way they learn. The internet, social media – in fact, virtually ALL media – have given students access to virtually unlimited information. All of it is presented in ways that engage them – and engage multiple senses. Consider the possibilities of teaching students using all of these tools. Would the end result be students with greater understanding of a subject – and, perhaps a great interest it in? Of course, it would.
BUT, how will our teachers have the time and resources required to make that kind of innovative teaching happen?
This is where TeacherPlanBook comes in.
"Thank you TeacherPlanBook! After several years of searching, trying numerous "free" programs and paying for many planner programs, your TeacherPlanBook is the first that I found to be simple to learn, easy to use, and fulfills all of my planning and reporting needs! I especially love that it's online (one less thing to carry) and that I can link lessons to state stands with one-click. With all the additional paperwork increasingly heaped on teachers, it's so nice to come across something that saves time and work rather than creating more!"

According to reports, police arrested two men with weapons and military uniforms in Kabul. The 101st Asmaee police zone crime branch chief, Col. Mohammed Zahir, has said that the weapons included 72 Kalashnikov assault rifles, nine heavy machine guns and military gear. It is important intelligence service and security forces increase the detection activities as the Taliban militants and other insurgent groups have changed their tactics for suicidal activities.
It is also important to control the recruitment of new soldiers more strictly because the infiltration of Taliban militants and other insurgents into national army and police force is very dangerous. Reports also say that last week, two men were detained in the Chehel Satoon area for smuggling 16 Kalashnikovs and a machine gun in a vehicle from Koh-i-Safi district of central Parwan province to Kabul. The attack on Ministry of Defense should be thought-provoking and must compel the security officials to have a thorough review of the soldiers and put stricter rules and check on the recruitment process.
Negligence and indifference can never justified when the security of the country is put in danger. Afghan national forces are supposed to take over security responsibilities of seven areas of the country in July this year. There are around 174,000 ANA recruits and the number is expected to increase to more than 200,000 by the end of 2011.
It is important to pay attention to the quality and not just to the number. In the meanwhile, it is equally important to prevent the provision of Afghan security forces uniforms and IDs for the militants and other lunatic fringes. It is also important that the government and international community develop effective strategic blueprints to squeeze the militants and insurgents and not just rely on the peace process, which is bringing a heavy cost for Afghan lives. Peace process should lead to real peace not to strengthening the militants that serve their foreign bosses.

Corn futures saw double digit gains in the 2019 contracts, with deferred contracts 4 to 10 cents higher. May futures expired today at $3.60 1/2. USDA confirming extremely slow planting and short covering caused the rally. After the Monday close, NASS reported IL is 71% behind normal planting pace at just 11%, with IN 51% below their average @ 6% and OH at 4% complete. NE was 46% planted, with IA at 48% both lagging normal. Forecasts on the 7-day QPF show precip in the WCB, with minimal amounts in the ECB, which may allow for some planting (if soils can dry out). The 6-10 day outlook looks wetter than normal for most of the Corn Belt. IEG Vantage (Informa) put their 2019 US corn acreage estimate at 90.7 million acres, down 2.1 million acres from USDA's Intentions number.
Jul 19 Corn closed at $3.68 3/4, up 12 1/4 cents,
Sep 19 Corn closed at $3.77 1/4, up 11 1/2 cents,
Dec 19 Corn closed at $3.87 3/4, up 11 1/4 cents
Mar 20 Corn closed at $3.99 1/2, up 9 1/2 cents

Soybean futures posted sharp 26 to 29 cent gains in most contracts on Tuesday. Specs were working to cover their record net short position, after USDA showed slower than expected planting. July soy meal was up $10.70/ton, with soybean oil 39 points higher. May futures expired today. Monday afternoon's Crop Progress report showed that NC was the only state reported at faster than normal pace as of 5/12, with SD still yet to get seed in the ground. MN and IL are 3% planted, well behind normal, with OH and IN at 2%. IA is 13% seeded, with NE at 20% complete. USDA reported a private export sale of 180,000 MT of soybeans to unknown destinations for 18/19 this morning. NOPA is expected by traders to show April member crush of 161.607 mbu, which would be slightly higher than last year. Soybean oil stocks are seen at 1.779 billion pounds. IEG Vantage, formerly Informa, puts the US soybean acreage at 86.4 million acres, up 1.8 million acres from USDA March Intentions.
Jul 19 Soybeans closed at $8.31 1/2, up 29 cents,
Aug 19 Soybeans closed at $8.38, up 29 cents,
Sep 19 Soybeans closed at $8.44, up 29 cents,
Jan 20 Soybeans closed at $8.69 1/2, up 28 1/4 cents,
Jul 19 Soybean Meal closed at $298.00, up $10.70,
Jul 19 Soybean Oil closed at $27.00, up $0.39
--provided by Brugler Marketing & Management
Wheat futures closed the Tuesday session with most winter wheat contracts 10 to 12 cents higher, as MPLS was up 3 to 5 1/4 cents. Double digit gains in corn helped to support the wheat complex. USDA showed conditions in KS down 1 point, with OK up 9 and TX improving 2 points from the week prior. Most SRW states saw lower ratings. Spring wheat planters managed to find some dry ground last week with MN reported at 35% planted, with ND at 37% and SD 46% complete, all making decent progress from the week prior. Rains forecast in those areas on the 5-day QPF may slow progress. Acreage estimates from IEG Vantage show US spring wheat at 12.4 million acres for 2019, down 470,000 acres from the March Planting Intentions report.
Jul 19 CBOT Wheat closed at $4.48 1/2, up 11 1/2 cents,
Jul 19 KCBT Wheat closed at $4.08 3/4, up 11 3/4 cents,
Jul 19 MGEX Wheat closed at $5.23 1/4, up 5 1/4 cents

Giving Fashion a Purpose – Breaking Barriers
There are so many barriers in our lives. The cultural barriers, the language barriers, the final barriers…There are a lot of times those barriers make our lives very difficult. Personally, the language barrier has been my biggest struggle since I moved to America. People used to tease me about my accent. One of my former co-workers asked me what city I live in, I told him Troy. This word gives me so much trouble because I can't say it very clearly. So he laughed very hard and said "oh, you live in a tree." Some people will speak to me very slow and loud because they think that way I can understand what they are saying. Some of them just stopped talking to me because they don't understand what I am saying.
Did you see? I feel the pain and really want to break the barriers. So when my friend Hoda asked me if I would like to be a part of her fashion event of Breaking Barriers, I said yes. Who is Hoda? To say it simply, she is a beautiful young Peace Promoter, Fashion Stylist, Journalist and Beauty Enthusiast. She loves using fashion as a tool to serve the purpose of promoting Peace.
Watch this video to understand what exactly she wanted to say to the world through fashion.
Now you all know, Hoda wanted to reinforce the idea of stepping outside of one's comfort zone, and defying stereotypes. It is not a matter our skin color, religion or cultural background, we are all human, right? It is all about unity and freedom!
Below are some of the photos from this photo shoot. Just in case you have difficult finding me, I am the Chinese women who wore a burgundy turban. Did you get it? All of our looks are breaking the cultural barrier by wearing things outside of the perceived "norm." 😉
Later on after our photo shoot, Hoda's effort got noticed by our local TV station WDIV Local 4 / ClickOnDetroit and she was on the news to promote her Breaking Barriers fashion show to benefit Syrian refugees. She and her husband are planing to attend the Syrian Refugee Cross Cultural Solutions Program in Greece to help out the locals. You can watch this short video for more info about the trip and help them to make it happen.
Below are some of the photos from the fashion show featuring Lyudviga Couture at the Robert Kidd Gallery in Birmingham, Michigan. I even modeled for Hoda in this show. 😉
When we give fashion a purpose, it is more powerful and meaningful.

This is the right information for you if you are planning to buy a property and you just don't know which one you should buy between a leasehold and a freehold property. Unless you have clear information about these two and understand well their lease agreements, you might end up being conned, thinking you are buying one but in real sense you are buying another and it will end up as a leasehold scandal if you come to realize.
About ownership the two properties differ in a way that for leasehold property even if you have bought it you don't have full ownership of the property, you will have to pay mortgage bill frequently and you will definitely have a landlord and still pay ground rent. For the freehold property is the one that once you buy you become an absolute owner which means there is no more mortgage bills and no landlord.
For the leaseholder the main responsibilities are to pay the yearly ground rent, maintenance fee, a yearly service fee and the part they need to pay about building insurance.
The responsibilities of a freeholder are mainly to make sure that the property is well maintained and make repairs where they are needed. He is also responsible for getting an insurance of the whole property. Finally the freeholder has to ensure that the agreements agreed upon are enforced and moves to court in case any part of the agreement is not adhered to.
If any of the parties fail to hold on to their responsibilities, it may result into a leasehold scandal .
The duration of ownership of a leaseholder is quite different to that of a freeholder; for a leaseholder the ownership is temporal, it can be from as short as forty years to as long as 999 years. For a freeholder there is basically no duration because they are the sole owner of the property unless they decide to sell it.

Douglas Melton's laboratory at the Harvard University Stem Cell Institute in Cambridge, Massachusetts has discovered a liver hormone that stimulates the growth of insulin-secreting beta cells in the pancreas. This discovery could very well lead to new treatments for diabetes.
This hormone, betatrophin, was induced in mice by treating them with a peptide that binds to insulin receptors. The insulin-occupied insulin receptors were unable to bind insulin, and that caused the animals to be resistant to insulin. Under these conditions, the livers of these mice produced betatrophin, which caused the animals' insulin-secreting pancreatic β cells to proliferate. Melton and others searched for genes that showed increased activity under these insulin-resistant conditions, which allowed Melton and colleagues to isolate and identify betatrophin.
According to Melton and his co-workers, "Transient expression of betatrophin in mouse liver significantly and specifically promotes pancreatic β cell proliferation, expands β cell mass, and improves glucose tolerance" (from the abstract of the paper).
Further experiments showed that when eight-week-old mice injected with betatrophin there was an average 17-fold rise in the proliferation of their insulin-secreting pancreatic β cells. Melton and others published these results in the journal Cell. Fortunately, betatrophin is also found in the human liver, according to Melton and others.
"It's rare that one discovers a new hormone, and this one is interesting because it's so specific," says Melton. "It works only on β cells and it's so robust and so potent."
Pancreatic β cells replicate rapidly during embryonic and neonatal stages in both mice and humans, but beta cell growth decreases dramatically in adults. A decrease in the function of beta cells late in life is the main cause of type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is a metabolic disorder that affects more than 300 million people worldwide. In the United States alone, the two forms of diabetes — type 2 and type 1— account for US$176 billion in direct medical costs each year.
Melton hypothesized that injections of betatrophin once a month, or even once a year, could potentially induce enough activity in pancreatic β cells to provide the same level of blood-sugar control for people with type 2 diabetes as do daily insulin injections. According to Melton, betatrophin would cause fewer complications, since the body would make its own insulin. He also hopes that betatrophin will be able to help people with type 1 diabetes.
Matthias Hebrok, director of the University of California, San Francisco, Diabetes Center, says that the work "is a great advance". "The findings are very interesting," he says, although he would like to see the experiments repeated in older mice. "Do mice that are on their way to becoming diabetic at an advanced age truly have an increase in proliferative capacity upon treatment with betatrophin?" he asks. This is a fair question.
Henrik Semb, managing director of the Danish Stem Cell Center in Copenhagen, says that "the identification of a factor, betatrophin, that stimulates mouse β-cell replication with remarkable efficiency is a very important discovery, because it provides the starting point for further studies to elucidate the underlying mechanism of β-cell replication."
β-cell replication has proved difficult to control in humans, but producing enough betatrophin for testing in human clinical trials will take about two years, according to Melton, who is also working to identify the hormone's receptor and its mechanism of action.

Esther Kim: A Mixed Legacy
Always ready with a joke, Young Chang Kim was the life of the party when friends gathered at the family's home in Queens, N.Y. He also taught Bible at church, enjoyed soccer and played the guitar. To earn a living, Young Chang ran several sewing workshops. The businesses provided a comfortable middle-class life for his wife Sun Ae, a homemaker, and their three children.
With no disability insurance to replace his lost income, the illness left the family scrambling.
That life was drastically altered in 2004 when he suffered a stroke, and could no longer work. With no disability insurance to replace his lost income, the illness left the family scrambling. Because of her poor English, Sun Ae took any job she could land. She drove car pools, worked as a janitor, babysat and prepared meals. Hannah and Esther, the oldest children, stepped in to help, too. Academically gifted students, the sisters worked as tutors. They lined up back-to-back tutoring sessions and taught until 9 at night. Their own schoolwork came later. But it still wasn't enough. The Kims moved multiple times, each apartment shabbier than the last. They qualified for food stamps and got help from their church.
In 2008, they left New York for Atlanta, where the cost of living was less. A month later, Young Chang was diagnosed with terminal stomach cancer. He died two months after that. The Kims could only afford a plain funeral paid for by donations from their church.
Today Hannah and Esther are attending college with the help of scholarships, and their younger brother Paul hopes to follow in their footsteps. But the financial hardships continue. "I hate how each remembrance of my father is through each bill that I pay, rather than through the memories of the healthy, loving father he so deserves to be remembered as," Esther says.
You can help students like Esther make their dream of a college education come true by donating to the nonprofit Life Lessons Scholarship fund. Donate here.
