Funding decisions and research granting agencies should be free from political and corporate influence.
To facilitate the transfer of funding from discovery-driven research to market-driven research, the federal government has changed the composition of the boards of the granting councils, appointing industry and political figures at the expense of scientific experts. Furthermore, public agencies such as the National Research Council are seeing their mandate narrowed and explicitly tied to industrial interests.
When governments bind research too closely to industry needs or political preferences, clear dangers arise. The commercialization of research can undermine the integrity of public research. Industrial partners, interested in preserving their commercial interests, have attempted to suppress or delay the publication of research results and to steer research away from inquiry that promises public benefit but offers little commercial profit.
The history of scientific progress has shown that the economic, social and environmental benefits of research can only be fully realized if governments recognize that good research does not emerge from political diktats or narrow industrial demands. The value of scientific studies and projects is best assessed by impartial experts through peer review, not by politicians or special interests.
Canadians and their elected representatives need unbiased and non-partisan advice on science policy.
The federal government should review its science policy based on the principle that research funding decisions should be free from political or corporate influence. Scientists and researchers, not CEOs and politicians, should decide who gets research funding.

In Belgium, the regulation of medical devices is carried out by the Federal Agencies for Medical and Health Products (FAMHP).
Like the rest of the European Union member states, Belgium separates medical devices into four categories: Class I, Class IIa, Class IIb, and Class III, each one posing a higher risk to the human body than the category before it. The definition of a medical device, along with further explanation of the differences between each class category, can be found in the Annex IX of Arrêté royal relatif aux dispositifs médicaux of 1999. Classification guidelines are also available through the MEDDEV 2.4/1 part one and part two.
Most of the Belgium medical device regulations follow those of the European Union, although there are a few differences. Because Belgium is in the European Union, only devices with proper CE Markings may be placed on the Belgian market. In order to secure a CE marking for a Class IIa, Class IIb, or Class III medical device, the manufacturer must contact a Notified Body (NB), which will provide the certificate after procedural inspections have been executed. If a NB is involved in verifying the conformity, the CE marking will be accompanied by a four-figure number that is provided by the NB.
If you are a manufacturer that is located outside of the European Union or the European Economic Area (EEA), you must appoint an Authorized Representative in the EU who will act as a liaison between your company and the European Commission. The European Commission offers various guidance documents to assist stakeholders with this process.
Manufacturers of Class III medical devices and/or invasive or implantable devices must issue a 60-day notification before conducting any clinical investigations. Investigations can begin after the 60-day notification unless a competent authority or ethical committee states otherwise. All other devices do not need to oblige by this 60-day waiting period.
A notification for any clinical investigations being performed must be submitted using a form. Be careful, a new application form has to be used for each separate device.Three copies of the investigation file must be sent as appendices to the completed form. The investigation file must be accompanied by the payment of 8982€ (include USD equivalent here), no matter the classification of the device.
The document for patient consent; this document must be written in the language of the patients (i.e. French, Dutch or German).
The preferred submission format of the dossier is CD-ROM format.
A copy of the ISO 9000 certificate and the EN / ISO 13485 certificate for the manufacturer (if applicable).
Note: ISO certificates from manufacturers are sufficient to provide instead of the production location or the corresponding ISO certificates.

Эрэн-Хото (, ) — городской уезд аймака Шилин-Гол автономного района Внутренняя Монголия (КНР).

География
Эрэн-Хото находится в северной части Китая, в пустыне Гоби на китайско-монгольской границе. Площадь городского уезда составляет 450 км².

История
В 1820 году в этих местах была основана почтовая станция Илинь. В 1899 году здесь прошла телеграфная линия Урга — Чжанцзякоу, и название Эрэн появилось на географических картах.

В январе 1956 года открылось движение по железной дороге Пекин — Улан-Батор — Москва, и в апреле 1956 года был образован посёлок Эрэн (二连镇) в составе хошуна Сунид-Юци аймака Шилин-Гол. В июле 1957 года посёлок был поднят в статусе до хошуна, переименован в Эрэн-Хото и подчинён непосредственно правительству аймака. В январе 1966 года решением Госсовета КНР Эрэн-Хото был поднят в статусе до городского хошуна. В декабре 1969 года решением Революционного комитета Внутренней Монголии Эрэн-Хото был передан в состав аймака Уланчаб, но в мае 1980 года возвращён в состав аймака Шилин-Гол. В 1985 году Эрэн-Хото был переквалифицирован в городской уезд.

Население
Численность населения Эрэн-Хото составляла 47 025 человек (по переписи 2000 года). Подавляющее большинство из них были китайцы (40 430 чел. — то есть 86 %), монголы (6 120 чел. — 13 %), маньчжуры (366 чел. — 1 %). Согласно переписи 2010 года население городского уезда составило 74 197 человек.

Административное деление
Городской уезд Эрэн-Хото делится на 3 уличных комитета и 1 сомон.

Экономика
Эрэн-Хото является важным логистическим узлом (сухим портом), через который товары из Восточного Китая перевозятся в Европу. По состоянию на 2020 год через станцию Эрэн-Хото компания China Railway Hohhot Group (региональное отделение China Railway) перевезла свыше 16,1 млн тонн грузов (в 2019 году — 14,7 млн тонн).

Транспорт

Железнодорожный
Эрэн-Хото является конечной станцией Трансмонгольской железной дороги, ширина колеи которой идентична российской (1520 мм) и отличается от принятой в Китае (1435 мм), поэтому здесь поездам, пересекающим китайско-монгольскую границу, производится замена вагонных тележек.

КПП Эрэн-Хото является крупнейшим сухопутным КПП на границе Китая и Монголии. По состоянию на 2023 год через него проходили 64 маршрута международных ж/д грузоперевозок Китай — Европа, которые связывают страну с Монголией, Россией, Беларусью, Польшей и Германией.

Автомобильный
Севернее города также находится пограничный переход для колёсного грузового транспорта. Эрэн-Хото — северный конец китайского национального шоссе 208, начинающегося в Чанчжи. На монгольской стороне напротив Эрэн-Хото находится монгольский город Замын-Уудэ, от которого проложено шоссе через Улан-Батор к границе с Россией.

Достопримечательности
В ближайших окрестностях Эрэн-Хото, в особенности около лежащего восточнее города солёного озера Эрэн-Нур были открыты палеонтологами многочисленные остатки динозавров. В 1921 году американский учёный Рой Ч.Эндрюс впервые в Азии к северу от Гималаев обнаружил здесь ископаемых гигантских пресмыкающихся. В настоящее время в Эрэн-Хото имеется музей динозавров.

Remember Watergate?
Fact & Fiction
by Rick Shenkman
Mr. Shenkman is the editor of HNN.
That was the scandal which brought Richard Nixon down after it was disclosed that he or his minions, among other things: spied on Edward Kennedy, played a dirty trick on Edmund Muskie, broke into the Democrat's national headquarters, planned to break into McGovern headquarters, compiled an enemies list, ordered the IRS to audit political opponents, arranged for illegal wiretaps, faked diplomatic cables to implicate John Kennedy in the assassination of South Vietnam's Ngo Dinh Diem, offered clemency to keep some witnesses quiet, paid other witnesses hundreds of thousands of dollars to keep them quiet, destroyed evidence, plotted the fire bombing of the Brookings Institution, and schemed to kidnap leading student radicals so they wouldn't disrupt the Republican National Convention in 1972.
That, anyway, is Watergate as most Americans-and historians-remember it. That is not, however, how many right-wingers do.
In what seems like a surreal continuation of the original Nixon cover-up, intellectuals on the right have been arguing in a shelf-full of recently published books that Watergate was really little more than the third-rate burglary Press Secretary Ron Ziegler initially said it was. Whatever oath-breaking offenses Nixon may have committed-and some right-wingers aren't willing to concede he committed any-they argue vehemently that his crimes were relatively minor.
In their Rip Van Winkle history-written as if the writers went to sleep before any of the charges against Nixon were proven true-Nixon has become the aggrieved apostle of right-wing resentments, the good president driven out of office by bad liberals before he could complete his conservative reforms of the federal government. Conservatives, to be sure, still haven't forgiven the SALT-treaty-signing, Mao-meeting, Taiwan-selling out president known for détente. But in the interest of undermining Bill Clinton they have begun advancing a revisionist account of Watergate to try to demonstrate that Monicagate (as they frequently refer to the Clinton scandal) was, by comparison, far far worse.
Shockingly, bad as their tendentious history is, it's finding a large and appreciative audience.
Nearly twenty-five years after Woodward and Bernstein's All the President's Men became a New York Times Best Seller, Ann Coulter hit the list last fall with High Crimes and Misdemeanors: The Case Against Bill Clinton.
Coulter, one of the articulate young conservative lawyers who can be seen regularly on the television talk-show circuit, provides the most egregiously apologetic account of the Nixon presidency since Victor Lasky's It Didn't Start with Watergate.
I could summarize her views, but perhaps it is best to let her speak for herself. Readers might think I was making this all up:
"Invoking a single, somewhat legitimate privilege once, telling one lie to the public, allowing one part of an investigation to be delayed for two weeks-this was how Nixon engaged in 'conduct that might adversely affect the system of government' and committed 'offenses that subverted the system of government.'"
Yes, that is what Ann Coulter believes led to the second impeachment inquiry in our history and the first forced resignation of a president.
Let us deconstruct:
"Invoking a single, somewhat legitimate privilege once." Coulter argues that unlike Bill Clinton, who invoked numerous privileges to conceal his offenses, Nixon cited just one, executive privilege, to conceal his. This much is true (though it hardly seems exculpatory). But she goes on to insist that Nixon's use of executive privilege was limited to a single occasion, which is laughable. Nixon repeatedly and ostentatiously used executive privilege to prevent the Watergate tapes from being heard, first by challenging Archibald Cox's subpoena for 9 tapes, then Leon Jaworski's subpoena for 64 tapes, then the House Judiciary Committee's subpoena for 147 more.
Her belief that Nixon's invocation of the privilege was"somewhat legitimate" is patently specious. While the Supreme Court upheld the existence of executive privilege, as she rightly points out, the Court unanimously ruled that it could not be used to conceal criminal behavior, which was precisely what Nixon was using it for.
Apparently recognizing the weakness of her argument, she goes on to make the additional claim that Nixon"somewhat legitimately" could argue that he had a national security basis for withholding the tapes because their release could lead to the exposure of the activities of the Plumbers, the group established to plug government leaks following the publication of the Pentagon Papers. This hardly strengthens her case. If all the Plumbers had done was to point out the source of the leaks, then she might be right. But that wasn't the case. Their job was to go after the leakers, using means both legal and illegal to do so. The Plumber's illegal activities, including the infamous break-in at the office of Daniel Ellsberg's psychiatrist, were patently offensive regardless of the motivation.
"Telling one lie to the public." Coulter maintains that Nixon's only lie was to tell the American people that a White House investigation had found that no one in the White House was involved in Watergate. Huh? This is one of the great howlers of our time. Nixon, of course, lied repeatedly. He resigned from office when supporters in the Senate grew tired of his lies. As Senator Barry Goldwater said,"We can be lied to only so many times."
"Allowing one part of an investigation to be delayed for two weeks." Once again Coulter has part of the story right. Two weeks after telling Pat Gray, the acting head of the FBI, not to follow the money found on the Watergate burglars because that would expose a secret CIA operation in Mexico, he seemingly reversed course, telling Gray to conduct a full and aggressive probe. But Nixon wasn't through covering-up. He simply had concluded he couldn't use the CIA excuse to sabotage the investigation, the CIA having refused to be drawn into the affair. Anyway, subsequently Gray himself took an active role in the cover-up, personally burning some of the most embarrassing documents found in E. Howard Hunt's White House safe. (A grateful Nixon then nominated Gray to be permanent head of the agency.)
One comes to understand why Coulter wants to minimize Nixon's crimes. It is not to right a great wrong. In fact her aim is to prove to the reader that Nixon should have been impeached. As she reasons, his removal for the lesser crimes of Watergate amply proves (in her view) that Clinton should be impeached for his supposedly far worse crimes. (She believes Clinton guilty of numerous felonies, stemming from his involvement in Whitewater, Travelgate, Filegate, though we now know that even Kenneth Starr decided no case could be made against Clinton in connection with these matters.)
Coulter is, in fact, a brilliant debater. Anyone ignorant of the facts of Watergate might be persuaded by her arguments, which she, for the most part, craftily couches in lawerly phrases, bolstering the appearance of credibility. To those familiar with the record, however, her account is ludicrous. She even claims that Nixon never succeeded in politicizing the IRS. The facts? At his direction the agency set up a new bureaucracy, the Special Services Staff, to open investigations into the tax records of thousands of Americans whose only crime was that they disapproved of the administration of Richard Milhous Nixon.
Bad as Coulter's history is, Paul Johnson's is even worse. In his recent best seller, A History of the American People, Johnson recycles the tired, two wrongs make a right, claim that Nixon was no more guilty of an impeachable crime than FDR, JFK or LBJ, each of whom also authorized illegal wiretaps and bugs. This is the same argument Nixon apologists made twenty-five years ago; it is no more convincing today than it was then. But by selectively focusing on wiretaps and bugs Johnson is able to avoid the inconvenience of confronting the long list of Nixon's other offenses.
Johnson apparently has never met a felonious Republican he didn't immediately embrace. In an earlier book, his best selling Modern Times, he even defended Spiro Agnew's acceptance of cash bribes while vice president. LBJ, Johnson insisted, did the same. I can remember at the time this book came out being shocked by his account and so turned to the endnotes to discover his source. It was Robert Caro, the celebrated LBJ biographer. I then checked Caro. Caro never says a word about LBJ receiving bribes while vice president.
Paul Johnson is now known to be careless with facts. His History of the American People, according to the New York Times, is replete with errors. In an interview for the paper's magazine Johnson acknowledged the errors and said he'd correct them as soon as his critics pointed them out. He left the writer of the piece under the impression that it was the critics' responsibility, not his, to vet the book.
His most serious factual mistake in the Watergate chapter is the statement that Nixon did not know in advance about the plan to break into Ellsberg's psychiatrist's office. This was indeed what Nixon claimed, with John Ehrlichman as a supporting witness. But we now know that Egil Krogh, who was in charge of the Plumbers, told John Dean that the break-in was Nixon's idea. (Krogh subsequently pleaded guilty to violating the psychiatrist's civil rights; he admitted to Leon Jaworski that the operation was not undertaken to protect national security, as was claimed when the break-in first became known.) Nixon himself always worried that one of the Watergate tapes would confirm that he had prior knowledge of the break-in. In his memoirs he wrote,"I do not believe I was told about the break-in." With Nixon, a half-hearted claim of innocence was almost always compelling evidence of guilt.
Johnson does not believe that Nixon should have been impeached and admits to this day that he and other Europeans (Johnson himself is British) never understood what the fuss was about. His explanation is that Nixon was simply the victim of an old fashioned American witch hunt led by a publicity-seeking judge, John Sirica, and a wise-cracking operator, Sam Ervin. So much for the heroes of Watergate.
Bill Bennett, the former Secretary of Education, whose brother defended Bill Clinton in the Paula Jones case, readily admits in his new book, The Death of Outrage, that Nixon was guilty of impeachable crimes in Watergate. (Bennett formerly was a Democrat; this perhaps explains his willingness to face the past more straightforwardly than his new Republican friends. He, unlike they, wasn't compelled to defend Nixon during Watergate.)
But Bennett too distorts history. At the end of his book he includes a list of the similar arguments used by Nixon and Clinton to show (he thinks) how similar their scandals are. It is an old rhetorical trick and some readers may find it suggestive. After all there is an eerie similarity to Nixon's use of executive privilege and Clinton's. Both, for instance, abused the privilege to cover up their offenses. But the implication that the two scandals were similar is startlingly anti-historical. While the cover-ups struck similar notes (as might be expected), the underlying offenses that prompted the presidents to resort to cover-ups were decidedly different. Nixon was covering up abuses of power, Clinton, adolescent sex.
And then there is Robert Bork's account, to be found in his recent screed, Slouching Towards Gomorrah. I was anxious to see how Bork treated Watergate for he actually played a bit part in it during the infamous Saturday Night Massacre. When Elliot Richardson and William Ruckelshaus refused Nixon's demand to fire Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox, Bork, then solicitor general, agreed to do the dirty deed.
Perhaps because he was there Bork, in the few places where he mentions Watergate, declines to mythologize it. But like his fellow conservatives he simply can't help feeling that the affair was overblown. In a blast at the National History Standards, he cited as evidence of bias the recommendation that"Fifth graders receive [in Bork's phrasing] a thorough indoctrination in Watergate."
And what exactly does he mean by bias? Bork tells us it is the belief that America is ... bad. In other words, teaching students about a president who was forced out of office for committing impeachable crimes is evidence that the country is bad. Most people take the opposite view: that Watergate showed the system worked.
R. Emmett Tyrrell, Jr., the publisher of the American Spectator (the magazine which published the first reference to Paula Jones) and Gary Aldrich, the former FBI agent who claimed that Clinton used cocaine, do not directly concern themselves with Watergate in two of their recent books. But Tyrrell in the Boy Clinton and Aldrich in Unlimited Access cannot resist bringing it up. Both score well-placed blows. Tyrrell, with some justice, says that Clinton is a better liar than Nixon ever was. (True.) Aldrich, with equal justice, notes the irony that Hillary Rodham worked on the same Judiciary Committee to impeach Nixon that is now considering impeaching her husband. (True, too.)
Fair enough. But in their eagerness to defame Bill Clinton, a task Bill Clinton himself has made astonishingly easy, they mistakenly reduce Watergate to a handy debater's point.
The misuse of history is an old story. Movie makers, politicians, patriotic societies-all from time to time have been caught falsifying history in an attempt to advance their own agendas. Rarely, however, have the falsifiers been as brazen as the latest crop. They act as if no one has access to the facts when the facts are easily available to anyone with a library card or a computer mouse.
This is an odd time for these misguided accounts to be circulating. For we have recently had evidence that Nixon was even more of a scoundrel than we thought he was. Thanks to historian Stanley Kutler, who painstakingly went through hundreds of hours of Watergate tapes, we now know that Nixon set a minimum price of $250,000 on the sale of ambassadorships, personally thanked a businessman for raising hundreds of thousands of dollars from supporters of the right-wing junta that took over Greece (money which went to pay off the Watergate burglars), and once began a meeting by saying,"Well, what dirty things should I know about today?"
This is the real Richard Nixon. It is worth remembering that. Whatever may be said in his favor he deserved what happened to him. As he told David Frost, he gave his enemies a sword and they drove it in.

By Ann Kenny, Early Careers Administrator at Bank of England
The Bank of England's Strategic Plan places a clear emphasis on having a workforce which reflects the public we serve. Our mission is "Promoting the good of the people of the United Kingdom by maintaining monetary and financial stability". In order to achieve this, we need to attract and inspire the best people to public service, and encourage a range of thought by better reflecting the diversity in the United Kingdom. One of the key aspects of our diversity framework is ensuring that people with disabilities can be employed in the Bank and can reach their full potential. We are proud to be a disability confident employer and we offer advice and support at all stages of the employee life cycle.
Pre joining the Bank
Diversity being one of our key objectives, we want to ensure that we are attracting a diverse pool of candidates.
At application stage, applicants will be given the opportunity to inform us about any disability via our application form. We strongly encourage students to be open and upfront about sharing this information and we recognise that disabilities can come in many forms. This will allow us to make any necessary adjustments and ensure a fair recruitment process for all. Once candidates have informed us about their disability we will reach out via email to discuss adjustments – this can be anything from 25% extra time to installing special software for the visually impaired where written tests are involved.
After joining the Bank
Where needed, new joiners will have the opportunity to meet and discuss potential adjustments with a dedicated member from our Employee Relations Team. They will provide advice and support through the onboarding process and will ensure a smooth transition into the Bank.
In addition, to support from our HR department, the Bank has a very active Disability Network. The Disability Network is made up of members of staff who work together to promote awareness of the full spectrum of disabilities which exist both in the Bank and in wider society. The network is made up of people who either have a disability or who have a special interest with disability employment issues. The Disability Network (originally the Disability Focus Group) was established by a group of Bank staff in 2008. The network now engages in a wide range of activities and meets on a regular basis. Recently the Disability Network has launched a disability network buddy scheme. We recognise that starting a new job in an organisation can be daunting for any member of staff, whether it is as a new starter, movement within an organisation or returning from an extended period of absence. For someone with a disability, the hurdles can seem even more intimidating. However, the settling in process can be made easier when an individual is teamed up with a buddy. A buddy provides a 'listening ear', particularly during those first few weeks at the Bank, and can signpost support that is available. The scheme was launched in August and is aimed at new joiners or those returning from long term sick but the network is also happy to hear from existing colleagues in need of help or assistance. Furthermore the network regularly invites guest speakers to talk about their experience of life with a disability. This spreads a positive and inspiring message and engages a wider audience within the Bank.
The Bank has a Mental Health Network. It aims to raise awareness, improve understanding (and dispel misunderstandings) around mental health conditions and highlight the support available to staff. The network believes this will help combat stigma around mental health problems, which will in turn lead to staff feeling more able to be open about them and seek help earlier. In support of this, the Bank committed publicly to the Time to Change pledge in October 2013. And last October a short film was publicly promoted by the Bank featuring staff sharing their mental health lived experiences. The film received very positive internal and external feedback and is part of 'This is Me in the City', a new City-wide campaign led by the Lord Mayor's Appeal. A participant of the film also shared his experience of working at the Bank in this blog.
We also recognise that to get the most out of a diverse workforce, we need to ensure people can bring their best to work and feel supported. Our extensive wellbeing programme promotes mental and physical wellbeing with staff counsellors, discounted gym-memberships, various life seminars and flexible leave options.
I hope we have demonstrated to you that we are committed to attracting, selecting and retaining a diverse pool of candidates and helping current and future employees who have disabilities feel at ease in our workplace and know they have a strong support system in place if needed.

Project: Yonkers is a unique initiative demonstrating the potential of instructional technology to support student achievement through use of innovative techniques which engage students incorporating rich content and project based learning opportunities. Project: Yonkers supports student centered active learning through thematic instruction via new digital tools, in this case Geocaching. Staff and students will receive training in the development of Geocache digital markers reflecting City of Yonkers educational, cultural, and historical sites. Professional learning opportunities will support discreet product creation which serves community stakeholders including Big Data potential as a public service tool. Students engage in logistical and literacy marker design, acting as digital 'docents' through active inquiry and project based design in a blended learning environment. Research verifies the potential of virtual tools to support student achievement. A 2009 study, U.S. Department of Education Study Finds that Good Teaching Can be Enhanced with New Technology, indicates "digitally rich educational strategies, such as blended learning experiences, are more effective than conventional face-toface instruction." A 1997 Northwest Regional Educational Laboratory study, Inquiry strategies for science and mathematics learning: It's Just Good Teaching, illuminates the value of inquiry to support achievement. Project design develops student content knowledge, skill, and achievement, through active student engagement in the development of digital Geocache, or markers, reflecting research and documentation of sites across the City of Yonkers. Efforts support teachers, administrators, students, and families, from Museum 25, a Priority school, Thomas Cornell Academy, a Focus School and district Open Educational Resource leadership school, and Stein Yeshiva of Lincoln Park a Nonpublic School partner, of grades 3 through 8. Activities include implementation of rigorous and highly engaging blended resource development to create digital docent opportunities via Geocache markers as participant's research, study, explore, and develop concrete elements through a three year progression of escalating levels of complexity. Year 1 reflects Digital Researchers, moving in year 2 to Digital Historians, with year 3 leveraging capacity and focused design through Digital Ambassadors. Project objectives include a) high quality professional development provided by district staff members, project partners New York Institute of Technology and the Hudson River Museum, and b) engaging student centered innovative learning experiences through Geocaching. Efforts will foster student engagement, leadership development, while providing community service opportunities. Project: Yonkers supports the New York State Regents Reform Agenda Goals #1, #2, and #3 through high quality sustained professional development supporting Development of Highly Effective School Leaders and Teachers, and Development of Student College and Career Readiness. Efforts align with New York State Learning Standards, including Common Core, and support development of lessons, units, and resources. Project: Yonkers supports the objectives of the New York State Learning Technology Plan, Standards of the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE), and District Technology Plans as students and staff place value evidence and use technology capably to read, write, speak and listen for information and understanding (ELA.1). College and Career Readiness will be supported as students respond to varying demands of task while using technology and digital media strategically (CCR). Common Core Standards include gathering relevant information from multiple sources (W.3- 8.8); present information, findings, and supporting evidence clearly, concisely, and logically (SL.3-8.4); enhance understanding through strategic use of media in presentations (SL.3-8.5) through blended learning student centered learning experiences.

Tetraplegi innebär förlorad funktion i armar, bål, bäckenorgan och ben på grund av skada på ryggmärgens halssegment.

En komplett skada innebär att det inte finns någon sensorisk eller frivillig motorisk funktion nedanför det skadade segmentet. Vid inkomplett skada finns delvis bevarad funktion. Klassificeringen av graden av sensoriskt/motoriskt bortfall sker enligt ett internationellt klassificeringssystem (ASIA).

Skadan kan ha traumatiskt ursprung (trafikolyckor, dykning, fall eller annat yttre våld mot ryggmärgen). Den kan orsakas av olika sjukdomar, blödningar och tumörer i ryggmärgen men också tillstånd utanför densamma där ryggmärgen pressas samman eller blodförsörjningen är nedsatt.

Sometimes sand and sun is all I need to rejuvenate me…what about you?
For the past few days, I have been relaxing and taking in the beautiful hospitality of Grand Cayman.
It is a wonderful island …the beaches are pristine and the water is welcoming, especially after leaving sub-freezing temperatures in Chicago.
Tomorrow reality will return as we travel back to the cold…but in the meantime even though it is cloudy today, there is still a little sun and sand alongside the beautiful Caribbean.
See you all stateside…Happy Thursday!

A DIFFERENT PATH TO FIGHTING ADDICTION
When their son had to take a medical leave from college, Jack and Wendy knew they — and he — needed help with his binge drinking. He had a disease, and in order to stay alive, he'd have to attend A.A. meetings and abstain from alcohol for the rest of his life, they said. But the couple resisted that approach. Instead, they turned to a group of psychologists who specialize in treating substance use and other compulsive behaviors. The center's approach includes motivational interviewing, a goal-oriented form of counseling; cognitive behavioral therapy, a short-term form of psychotherapy; and harm reduction, which seeks to limit the negative consequences of substance abuse.

Why should Congress or state legislatures allocate funds to fix a problem that flies under the radar? Today, there are more people in our country whose lives have been touched by mental illness than not. What's more, mental illness is by far the most prevalent disease in the United States, with an estimated 78 million Americans suffering from a diagnosable mental illness. Yet, even now, the National Alliance on Mental Illness estimates that 60 percent of people who have experience with mental illness keep their experiences secret. People with mental illnesses still hide, and their families still hide, too. It's time for those affected by mental illness to have our Stonewall Inn moment.

Murderous pair get life terms after reign of terror
By Pertunia Mafokwane - 13 December 2017 - 14:15
Nkosinathi Ngwenya got life for each of his four counts of murder. He also got 15 years for each of his 11 counts of robbery with aggravating circumstances. /Supplied
Two killers who terrorised the community of Zandspruit, Johannesburg, were yesterday sentenced to life imprisonment in the South Gauteng High Court in Johannesburg.
Nkosinathi Citizen Ngwenya, 26, and Nkosinathi Andile Nkomo, 30, broke into people's homes and also targeted parties, gambling areas and taverns.
Four people were killed between June and August 2016.
Ngwenya received life imprisonment for each of his four counts of murder while Nkomo got life imprisonment for each of his two counts of murder.
In addition to this, Ngwenya received 15 years for each of his 11 counts of robbery with aggravating circumstances, and five years for attempted murder.
Nkomo received 15 years for each of his five counts of robbery with aggravating circumstances.
Both received five years on the count of contravening Section 3 of the Firearms Control Act 60 of 2000 (unlawful possession of a firearm), and three years for the count of contravening Section 4 of the Firearms Control Act 60 of 2000 (unlawful possession of ammunition).
All sentences will run concurrently.
Judge Carla van Veenendal said a sentence should reflect the severity of the crime.
She added that what made the crimes more serious was that victims were accosted in places where they should feel safe.
Randy Tango handed three life sentences for 11-year-old neighbour's rape and murder
Randy Tango was sentenced to three life sentences for raping and murdering his 11-year-old neighbour Stacha Arendse.
She said a sentence that was too lenient does not serve the interest of society.
"The only way to stop offences from occurring is to remove the accused from society for a long time. The society needs to be protected against the accused. The court must impose a sentence that will deter anyone from committing further offences ..."
Van Veenendal said she tried to find substantial and compelling circumstances to "individualise" the sentence for each accused.
"However, in weighing the number of deceased persons left in the wake of this reign of terror against the personal circumstances of the accused ... I find there is no reason to deviate from the minimum sentences applicable."
Van Veenendal said the duo had not shown regret or remorse or taken any responsibility for the offences.
"... the accused probably would not have refrained from committing [more] offences if they were not apprehended."
Emily Matsoma, 63, who was robbed at her house while hosting a party for a relative, said she was relieved.
"I am so very happy with the sentence. We will sleep peacefully at night."
Gauteng police spokesman Captain Kay Makhubele said the police were satisfied with the sentences.
"Commitment and dedication by the team that worked on the case led to this success."

UNB Spin Off Inversa Now Pursuing Oil & Gas Industry
Fredericton-based Inversa Systems, whose technology can detect structural flaws through backscattered radiation techniques, intends to pursue a twin-track strategy in 2013 to pursue its two key markets – civil infrastructure and the offshore oil and gas industry.
The company wants to scale up sales in its civil business, which is mainly testing infrastructure like culverts (corrugated metal pipes) to make sure they are structurally sound. That business accounts for about 60 percent of Inversa's revenues, but the greater growth may be found in the fledgling business of monitoring structures aboard offshore oil rigs. The company has now nailed down the product that will be used in that business.
"We like to say, 'You nail it, then you scale it,'" said President John Bowles in an interview in his office on the campus at University of New Brunswick. "In 2013, we want to nail the oil and gas [product] while we scale the civil side."
The Fredericton company sprang to life in 2005 from PhD research by founder and CEO Jake Arsenault, and got its initial push by winning a New Brunswick Innovation Foundation student entrepreneurship contest – a forerunner of the Breakthru competition. (The deadline to enter the 2013 Breakthru contest is Thursday.)
Arsenault and President John Bowles developed a diagnostic imaging system that probes a structure while in-service to detect whether there has been erosion, corrosion or any other defect. The system uses backscattered radiation, which is similar to an x-ray, except the beams reflect back from the subject rather than pass through it. That means the Inversa system can be used from the surface of massive objects.
Bowles said the reason for the latent growth in oil and gas is not so much that the company is pushing into this market, as that international petroleum companies have learned about the technology and are seeking out Inversa.
"What we find exciting is we work with some of the largest companies in the world, and each time we do they ask us to do more," he said.
Offshore rigs feature massive insulated tanks and pipes, and regulators often demand that the structures be repaired immediately, meaning all work on the rig stops while the insulation is removed and the structure inspected and/or repaired. It can take days and cost millions of dollars in expenses and lost revenue. Inversa can inspect the tanks and pipes without removing the insulation, which means the petroleum company can discover problems without shutting down, and then schedule repairs for the rig's regular downtime. It can save the company millions of dollars.
The expansion in the offshore oil and gas segment is leading to exciting opportunities, such as the development of a submersible product that could test assets hundreds of metres or even kilometres beneath the waterline. There are other applications as well: Inversa has already done work for the Department of National Defense, analysing the carbon-fibre honeycomb structure used in wings and tailfins of fighter planes and helicopters to ensure there's no fluid in the material.
Bowles said that in the next three to five years the company plans to outsource the manufacturing of its scanning device so Inversa will be a software company, analyzing the data that partners send back after conducting the scans. It means it will be able to expand rapidly in terms of geography, but its intellectual property, which is all in the software, will remain with the company.
Inversa has formed a partnership with the international rig-servicing company EM&I/Stantec, and is considering other partnerships, including one to develop the subsea product. If the partners demand an upfront investment as part of the deal, the company may have to raise more capital. So far, it has been funded by angels, as well as NBIF, and the private Moncton venture capital fund Technology Venture Corporation. NBIF and TVC combined on a $500,000 investment in September 2011, which allowed Inversa to tap into a $2.1 million loan from the Atlantic Innovation Fund, announced by the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency earlier that year.

Keep On the Sunny Side: "Open Hearts. Open Minds. Open Doors."
Jennifer Hampton
For the past 20 years, here in the US, we have seen a rise in numbers with the religious affiliation "S.B.N.R." Have you heard of it: "Spiritual, But Not Religious"? It seems that with the cultural shift drifting away from Christendom, there is also a decline in institutional allegiance. Unlike 50 years ago, when 'spiritual' and 'religious' were synonymous, there is now a great divide. As people move away from the institutional church and its public religious practices, they tend to move toward a more individual and private experience of God. This personal experience of encountering the Divine, apart from a community of believers, is what identifies many as "spiritual."
I'm learning in ministry there are a great number of people who love Sunday Morning worship: it's their joy and a rhythm of their life for social, emotional, and spiritual growth. Sunday Morning worship is where they encounter the Divine and feel the warmth and love of Jesus Christ in a way altogether different from the rest of the world. I'm also learning there are a great number of people who do not love Sunday Morning worship. They simply don't want to go to church or do worship. I'm not so sure that's a bad thing. (Gasp!) After all, some Sunday Morning worship rituals could use a bit of re-vitalization or liturgical imagination.
While worship attendance continues to drop around our nation, I'm still convinced most people want to explore their faith and to contribute to a bigger vision of greater good. Most people want to be a part of a movement of transformation and know they have contributed to making life more beautiful or abundant for others, to ease pain, heal brokenness, share kindness and offer hope. While I don't agree with S.B.N.R.'s (I am fully claimed by Jesus Christ and His Church), I think we are both coming from the same place in our hearts: a desire to love and be loved; to encounter the Divine and pass on to others whatever goodness comes from that encounter.
I'm not alone in my frustration with mainline denominations who continue to push for a church growth model, where bigger is always better. I think this idea has led to some missteps in church leadership and some misunderstandings about the Kingdom of God among clergy and laity alike.
I've even seen congregations water-down their message of redemption and healing in Jesus in an effort to "bring in" the growing S.B.N.R. crowd on Sunday Mornings. I wonder, is this really a faithful way of discipleship? Is that our method of transforming the world?
The slogan of the United Methodist Church is "Open Hearts, Open Minds, Open Doors." I love this, because "open" is such an inviting word; it's dripping with grace and we Methodists are known for our thoughts on grace. While we are an invitational group, we are also a sent people. Every Sunday I offer the benediction and send my worshiping crowd out into the community to be the hands and feet of Jesus. Yes, our doors are open for people to come in, but our doors are also open for us to go out.
Are other congregations open to ministry outside a building? Or open to worship outside of Sunday? I'm convinced the best way to minister to the S.B.N.R crowd is to meet them right where they are, and to serve side by side. What would it look like to put the invitations for Sunday Worship to rest and leave the church building, in order to be the church body? Let's organize for community service uniting under the cause of improving global health, ministering with the poor and advocating for justice. Let's join alongside those who believe differently than us and show with our loving actions why we believe differently—Jesus.
My hope and prayer is never for our church to be big. I pray for God's Kingdom to grow wide. Deep and wide. While Sunday morning is reserved for the maintenance of worship, let's commit Monday through Saturday for service in Christ's name.

Sara Lovell's notably original music is a gift for listeners, filled with music to get lost in, to smile at, dream to and let the imagination fly. Her arrangements, tailored to the emotional tone of each song, are rich with expressive harmonic layers, unexpected key changes and vocal lifts. Among the tracks: the lively "I Don't Want to Go to Bed," "Leave the Monkey" (featuring a humorous menagerie), "Scooter and Skeeter" (playful wordplay), and the title track with its club-rock beat. There are soaring flights of fancy, too. In the breathtaking "Rocket," a child hesitates to take a trip on a waiting rocket, but once on board discovers a limitless universe: "…I'm alone but I'm part of everything/See my world, far away, spinning planets all around/And I won't be the same when my rocket touches down." In "Sleepwalkers," the moon and an owl wait for children to return from their dreaming. In "I Don't Sleep in a Bed" a child takes wing like a bird "over the mountains flying free," crests the waves like a seal, and listens to "the humming of the earth/And the critters in the dirt/Breathing with the world that's spinnin' round." The tender, shimmering "Lullaby for Grownups" tells kids that they're not the only ones who need sweet dreams and hugs, and "Rock-a-Bye My Baby" comes from a parent's full heart: "Even when you're big and tall, and you think you don't need me at all, I'll hold you in my arms again…."

Nigerian Football Federation president, Amaju Pinnick said he has high hopes that the Super Eagles will go far at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations.
The Super Eagles failed to qualify for two editions of the AFCON, after winning the title in 2013. They are are expected to revive their qualification campaign after losing the first game to South Africa 2-0 in Uyo, with an away game in Seychelles.
"Our vision, as we have espoused from day one, is to build a sustainable football culture for our dear nation. To do that, youth development is key," said the NFF president.
"That is what we are trying to do with the U-15 squad which recently reached the final of the African Youth Games in Algeria, and which will form the bulk of the next U-17 team.


This week, PTFC hosted its annual preseason U11–U14 Boys Team Camp at Phillips Park. The camp was led by the High Point University Men's Soccer coaching staff, along with PTFC coaches and a dozen HPU Men's Soccer players.
Each day at camp focused on a specific topic that we hope will serve as the foundation for these players and their coaches as they progress through the fall season.
We are excited to host our PTFC Girls Team Camp next week, led by HPU Women's Soccer coaches and players and PTFC coaches.
U15-U19 Boys Camp will take place before the start of their spring season in January, 2017.

Q: Spring boot Exception custom handling - Unexpected HTTP status I am trying to implement some custom exception handlers in my spring boot application which will be able to handle custom exceptions and display appropiate message and status code.
My issue : Getting http status = 500 even though the response body is according to my custom handler.
Code :
@ControllerAdvice
public class MyExceptionHandler extends ResponseEntityExceptionHandler {

@ExceptionHandler({ BadRequestValidationFailureException.class, Exception.class })
public ResponseEntity<Object> handleAll(Exception ex, WebRequest request) {

    ApiError apiError = new ApiError(HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST, ex.getMessage());

    return new ResponseEntity<Object>( apiError, new HttpHeaders(), HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST );

}

And throwing exception as :
throw new BadRequestValidationFailureException( "ERROR_CODE", "THIS IS THE MESSAGE" );

The output is :
{
"timestamp": "2018-09-20T17:44:01.502Z",
"status": 500,
"error": "Internal Server Error",
"exception": "com.hotstar.payment.exception.BadRequestValidationFailureException",
"message": "[ ERROR_CODE ] THIS IS THE MESSAGE",
"path": "/my/api/path"
}

The weird thing is that the http response status is 500.
Please help.

A: Got the solution. Had to set another annotation :
@ResponseStatus(value = HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST, code = HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST, reason = "some reason")

Add this to handleAll method.

A: I've made good experiences with the following pattern:
@ControllerAdvice
public class RestResponseEntityExceptionHandler extends ResponseEntityExceptionHandler {
    private static final Map<MyProjectErrorCode, HttpStatus> CODE_STATUS_MAP = new EnumMap<>(MyProjectErrorCode.class);

    static {
        CODE_STATUS_MAP.put(MyProjectErrorCode.MYPROJ_ILLEGAL_PROPERTY, HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST);
        CODE_STATUS_MAP.put(MyProjectErrorCode.MYPROJ_FOO, HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST);
        CODE_STATUS_MAP.put(MyProjectErrorCode.MYPROJ_THIRDPARTYX_CLIENT, HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR);
        CODE_STATUS_MAP.put(MyProjectErrorCode.MYPROJ_UNKNOWN, HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR);
        CODE_STATUS_MAP.put(MyProjectErrorCode.THIRDPARTYX_BAR, HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST);
        CODE_STATUS_MAP.put(MyProjectErrorCode.THIRDPARTYX_UNKNOWN, HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR);
    }

    @ExceptionHandler(MyProjectException.class)
    public ResponseEntity<ErrorResponse> handleMyProjectException(MyProjectException ex) {
        ErrorResponse errorResponse = createErrorResponse(ex.getErrorCode(), ex.getMessage());
        HttpStatus httpStatus = determineHttpStatus(ex.getErrorCode());
        return handleErrorResponse(errorResponse, httpStatus);
    }

    @ExceptionHandler(IllegalArgumentException.class)
    public ResponseEntity<ErrorResponse> handleIllegalArgumentException(IllegalArgumentException ex) {
        MyProjectErrorCode errorCode = MyProjectErrorCode.MYPROJ_ILLEGAL_PROPERTY;
        ErrorResponse errorResponse = createErrorResponse(errorCode, ex.getMessage());
        HttpStatus httpStatus = determineHttpStatus(errorCode);
        return handleErrorResponse(errorResponse, httpStatus);
    }

    @ExceptionHandler(RuntimeException.class)
    public ResponseEntity<ErrorResponse> handleRuntimeException(RuntimeException ex) {
        MyProjectErrorCode errorCode = MyProjectErrorCode.MYPROJ_UNKNOWN;
        ErrorResponse errorResponse = createErrorResponse(errorCode, ex.getMessage());
        HttpStatus httpStatus = determineHttpStatus(errorCode);
        return handleErrorResponse(errorResponse, httpStatus);
    }

    private ResponseEntity<ErrorResponse> handleErrorResponse(ErrorResponse errorResponse, HttpStatus httpStatus) {
        return new ResponseEntity<>(errorResponse, httpStatus);
    }

    private ErrorResponse createErrorResponse(MyProjectErrorCode errorCode, String message) {
        ErrorResponse errorResponse = new ErrorResponse();
        errorResponse.setErrorCode(errorCode.name());
        errorResponse.setErrorMessage(message);
        return errorResponse;
    }

    private HttpStatus determineHttpStatus(MyProjectErrorCode errorCode) {
        return CODE_STATUS_MAP.getOrDefault(errorCode, HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR);
}

The client can get the HttpStatus from the Http response - no need to add it to the JSON body.
The project specific MyProjectErrorCode enum allows you to communicate to the clients a detailed error code. The client can analyze this error code and take the appropriate action or display a localized (specific or generic) error message based on the error code.
MyProjectErrorCode also allows you to communicate if the error was created in your code (starting with MYPROJ_) or if the error is forwarded from the third party 'x' service (starting with THIRDPARTYX_).
You can also create subclasses of MyProjectException and ErrorResponse to transport more specific data for specific cases - just add an additional expcetion handler method for that exception.

An 'outstanding' North Yorkshire nursery set in 20-acres of grounds on the outskirts of Harrogate has appointed a new manager.
Carol Pedersen has joined Magic Tree Nursery, part of Harrogate prep school Belmont Grosvenor, from her most recent role of developing nurseries and pre-schools across Bahrain, Singapore and China.
Mother-of-two Mrs Pedersen is excited about her new position at Belmont Grosvenor, which is based in Swarcliffe Hall, Birstwith, Harrogate, and has been consistently rated 'outstanding' and 'excellent' in Ofsted and ISI (Independent Schools Inspectorate) inspections. She is looking forward to building on the nursery's success and taking it forward into its next chapter.
"Magic Tree Nursery, which celebrated its 10thbirthday recently, is an 'outstanding' setting caring for babies from three months old. Set in 20-acres of beautiful grounds in Nidderdale, yet only a few miles from the centre of Harrogate, it offers an exceptional standard of provision for children.
"I'm looking forward to bringing my many years of experience across the world to enhance this already 'outstanding' setting, and building on all that is special at Magic Tree to create a warm, engaging and thoughtfully prepared learning environment," said Mrs Pedersen.
Working as Executive Principal for Eton House Education Group, which has more than 150 schools globally in its portfolio, Mrs Pedersen spent seven years with the Early Years and Primary education group supporting them in developing nurseries and pre-schools worldwide.
Her varied career has also taken her to Scandinavia where she developed a nursery and kindergarten, as well as working across the UK and Europe in a range of pre-school and Early Years settings.
"I am passionate about Early Years and was invited to attend the Reggio Emilia Education Centre in Italy which is recognised the world over for its innovative teaching philosophy and approach to Early Years," said Mrs Pedersen.
"We will be promoting a holistic, nurturing learning environment for children, which promotes physical, social, emotional, cultural, language and cognitive development. At Magic Tree I welcome parent's involvement and believe communication between nursery and parents is the key to success," she said.
Sophia Ashworth Jones, Headmistress at Belmont Grosvenor School, said she was delighted to welcome Mrs Pedersen as manager of its Magic Tree Nursery, which cares for children from three months.
"We're overjoyed to have Carol join the team at our fabulous Magic Tree Nursery. She's keen to further develop our already warm and caring family nursery environment, taking inspiration from our unique and picturesque setting," said Mrs Ashworth Jones.

Anything could happen at the Catalina Wine Mixer.


Experimentation by FWF members and through FWF pilot projects will help answer these questions. And we are committed to finding supply chain pricing methods alternative to 'compounding price escalation'.
But there are also other ways we can explore covering living wage costs.
'In most production countries, any discussion of wage and price increase needs to start with an evaluation of productivity,' explains FWF's Margreet Vrieling. 'In many garment facilities, productivity is lagging.' There are real gains that can be made by addressing factors such as the physical layout of the workplace, human resource management, and payment schemes.
Efforts to raise wages above the minimum wage and towards living wages can also be funded through efficiency gains in the supply chain. Some companies have moved to work directly with factories, cutting out commissions paid to agents or other middle men. It is also worth exploring how costs might be absorbed into profit – either at the level of the factory, the brand, or both.
On profits, FWF seeks to explore how slight cuts to unit profit can be offset by gains through bigger order volumes or recognition in the market as an ethical brand.
But so far, FWF's work on pricing living wages has focused at the level of the product. For our future work, we hope to work with brands to think more strategically about covering the costs of living wages in new ways.
As FWF's Martin Curley explains, 'Brands think and evaluate costs and revenue in terms of entire collections, not individual products.' Product pricing and margins can vary considerably among garments in a collection for a variety of commercial reasons (e.g. a collection may include a low margin item that creates a lot of publicity for the entire collection).
Product cost is not the only cost of doing business for brands. All brands must pay for some mix of product, marketing, advertising, design, and, in some cases, retail operations, rent, etc. All brands construct margins on their product accordingly. If brands do not want to increase prices, there may be possibilities to adjust other expenditures to support living wages.

Q: Diagnose why my scrapy spider isn't downloading images I have a simple scrapy project. I am crawling www.anthropologie.com for sale items. I want to use the standard imagePipeline to download the sale items I am scraping. I have enabled the standard imagePipeline in the settings.py file as well as a valid directory for the IMAGE_STORE. I have the required fields image_url and images. My spider is scrapping the correct url for the images as validated by checking the urls in the browser. When I run the spider it is indicated that the pipeline is enabled. However I see no indication that images are being downloaded and I find no images in the correct directory.
below are examples of my code:
settings.py:
BOT_NAME = 'LTTcrawlers'

SPIDER_MODULES = ['LTTcrawlers.spiders']
NEWSPIDER_MODULE = 'LTTcrawlers.spiders'
ITEM_PIPELINES = {'scrapy.contrib.pipeline.images.ImagesPipeline': 1}
IMAGES_STORE = 'images'

items.py
from scrapy.item import Item, Field

class saleItem(Item):

    image_url = Field()
    images = Field()
    retailer = Field()
    name = Field()
    prev_price = Field()
    sale_price = Field()
    link = Field()
    url = Field()

anthro_spider.py:
from scrapy.spider import Spider
from scrapy.selector import Selector

from LTTcrawlers.items import saleItem

class AnthroSpider(Spider):

    name = "anthro"
    allowed_domains = ['www.anthropologie.com']
    start_urls = [
    'http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/category/clothing/shopsale-clothing.jsp?&id=SHOPSALE-CLOTHING&facetSelected=true&itemCount=100&bucketPriceHigh=10.0&cm_sp=LEFTNAV-_-PRICE-_-BUCKETPRICE%3C25.0'
    ]

def parse(self, response):

    sel = Selector(response)
    items = sel.xpath('//div[@class="category-items"]/div')

    sale_items = []

    for item in items:
        sale_item = saleItem()
        sale_item["retailer"] = "Anthropologie"
        sale_item["name"] = item.xpath("./div[@class='item-description']/a/text()").extract()[0].encode('ascii','ignore')
        sale_item["sale_price"]= item.xpath("./div[@class='item-description']/div/span/text()").extract()[0].encode('ascii', 'ignore')
        sale_item["prev_price"] = item.xpath("./div[@class='item-description']/div/span/span/text()").extract()[0].encode('ascii', 'ignore')
        sale_item["url"] = item.xpath("./div[@class='item-description']/a/@href"
        ).extract()[0].encode('ascii', 'ignore')
        sale_item["image_url"] = item.xpath('.//img/@data-original').extract()

        sale_items.append(sale_item)

    return sale_items

there are no errors reported so I can't figure out what I'm missing.

A: In the items.py file, it should be image_urls = Field(). not image_url = Field()
