#ShirtsOff for Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Breast cancer affects thousands of men and women each year and screening is unfortunately overlooked all too often.
Many women find mammograms painful and embarrassing hence hesitate when urged to get screened.
And some men may not realize they too have breast tissue and are at risk for breast cancer.
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and #ShirtsOff reminds us to examine ourselves, get screened, and look for changes in our breasts.
Signs of breast cancer include
A lump inside the breast or under the arm
Change in breast shape
Dimpling
Nipple discharge
Nipple bleeding
Sore on the breast
Change in skin texture
How common is breast cancer?
1 in 8 women will develop invasive breast cancer over the course of their lifetime. According to the American Cancer Society, an estimated 266,120 cases of invasive breast cancer are expected to be diagnosed in women in the US with 63,960 cases of non-invasive breast cancer, a rise from last year.
40,920 women and 480 men are expected to die this year of breast cancer.
What are the risk factors for breast cancer?
Risk factors for breast cancer include:
Age greater than 50
BRAC1 and BRAC2 genetic mutations
Never been pregnant or becoming pregnant for the first time over 35 years old
Early menarche at age 11 or younger
Obesity, especially after menopause
Dense breasts
Use of oral contraceptives
Previous "precancerous" tumors such as atypical hyperplasia
DES exposure
Previous radiation therapy
How is breast cancer staged?
Breast cancer is staged based on size of the tumor, if lymph nodes are affected and whether the cancer has spread to distant areas of the body. Prognosis varies greatly on the stage.

Is family history a huge factor?
85% of breast cancer cases occur in women with NO family history.
Screening of breast cancer
Mammograms are the first line screening tool for breast cancer and are currently recommended biennial for women aged 50-74. However for those at higher risk, mammogram screening should start earlier, with possible follow-up ultrasound, and be performed more regularly.
3-D MAMMOGRAM IMAGE
3-D Mammograms use some of the most sensitive technology in screening.
Dr. William Boren, owner of West Valley Imaging in Las Vegas, Nevada, states "3-D Mammograms reportedly find up to 40% more cancers, allowing a topographic view of the tissue."
Dr. Boren also recommends to "not leave big gaps between screening. If you start screening at age 40, then continue yearly screens."

Hurricane Michael hits Florida coast
Hurricane Michael, the strongest on record in the U.S. since 2004 hit the Florida coastline this afternoon. It's too late to evacuate. If you're there - you're there. Michael is a Category 4 hurricane with winds at 155 mph. But that makes it that top end of Category 4 because as soon as winds hit 157 it will officially be a Category 5. Not that there is much difference between 155 and 157 mph winds other than the rating system because, either way, enormous damage is about to rain down on Florida.
Not even one month after Florence flooded Georgia & the Carolinas and caused $1.5 billion in damages, the E coast is getting hammered again. This time by Hurricane Michael, which meteorologists have rated a Category 4.
Folks in Georgia and the Carolinas still have flooded areas in large portions of the coastline and in a few more days will receive more rainstorms as Michael hits Florida today but will move N further inland by Friday. Michael is actually the opposite of Florence which went from a Category 4 down to a Category 1 by landfall while Michael increased in strength as it came closer to the SE coastline. In fact, meteorologists believe that Michael will still be a Category 2 Hurricane when it hits Alabama and southern Georgia.
If that's not bad enough Hurricane Michael, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, could spawn tornadoes anywhere from 50-100 miles outside the hurricane eye. That's all those folks need, right? Tornadoes to go along with their Category 4 hurricane.
Last month, our very own Dr. Daliah wrote a "How You Can Help" column for Hurricane Florence and all of her information is relevant for Michael as well. You can read her column here. Her column also has plenty of links to the Red Cross, the Army Emergency Relief and other sources if you want to donate assistance. The American Red Cross is accepting monetary and blood donations. Financial donations can be given here or on their website at redcross.org. Moreover one can call 1-800-RED-CROSS or text the word REDCROSS to 90999 to make a $10 donation. More relief numbers in her column.
The forecast cone is expected to stretch Michael all the way north to Maryland, which is a lot of damage, and a lot of danger.
While MLS Thrives in Minnesota, Miami's MLS Hopes are Drowning in Loria's Wake
Despite the Land of 10,000 Lakes losing the second-winningest NBA franchise to a place with roughly as many lakes as Lakers in uniform, Minnesota has managed to become a mini-Mecca of American sports entertainment. In the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minn., you can see the Minnesota Twins and St. Paul Saints play professional baseball, watch one of the best women's professional basketball teams, see one of the best American football teams and catch the Loons playing Major League Soccer—all in a three-day weekend. The same cannot be said for a much larger and more diverse market in Miami, and their respective histories of stadium funding and construction might have everything to do with it.
Minnesota's Mini-Mecca of American Sports Entertainment
In April of 2018, Minnesota had four professional sports teams in action for the first time ever, two of which were in the playoffs. The "Minneapolis Miracle" at U.S. Bank Stadium on Jan. 14 served as a coming out party for Minnesota sports on the national stage. Relative to the "big four" sports leagues, the Minnesota Lynx quietly collected Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) championships in four of the past eight years. Despite it being the top league of its kind in the world, a dynastic WNBA team hardly nudged the needle gauging national interest.
However, adding a team from MLS, widely considered the fifth-best soccer league in the world, was such a good idea Vikings owners Mark and Zygi Wilf got written permission to pursue the opportunity when seeking approval for construction of U.S. Bank Stadium. The bill passed by the Minnesota Legislature in May 2012 included a clause allowing the Wilf's to pursue an MLS franchise to play in their new stadium for up to five years. That's not how it went down, but the Minnesota United Football Club (MNUFC) group fast-tracked its way to an MLS franchise regardless, while a larger, more soccer-friendly population in Miami is still waiting.
The addition of MNUFC makes the Twin Cities one of just 10 markets with franchises in all five of the major, American, professional sports leagues—the National Football League (NFL), National Basketball Association (NBA), National Hockey League (NHL), Major League Baseball (MLB) and MLS. Minneapolis-St. Paul is just the sixth market featuring teams in each of the five major, American, professional sports leagues while also supporting a Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) franchise.
You might be wondering how the roughly 3.5 million residents of the Minneapolis-St. Paul area and the modest reach of its 15th-ranked media market manage to support seven professional sports teams including the independent league St. Paul Saints baseball team. But what makes it possible now has a lot to do with what's happened in the past.
When the roof of the Metrodome collapsed for a fifth time in 2010, its deflation left Minnesotans deflated. The amount of air Minnesotans collectively sighed over the thought of paying for another stadium would have raised the roof of the Metrodome. The residents and visitors of Hennepin County had just contributed $350 million, or 63 percent of the funding for Target Field's construction through a county-wide, 0.15-percent sales tax hike. The timing couldn't have been worse for the Wilfs, but at least the Twins didn't give Twin Cities' residents a reason to resist stadium construction like Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria did in Miami.
Jeffrey Loria's Wake is Drowning Miami's MLS Hopes
Miami, a city with almost twice the population as the Twin Cities and a diverse population prime for MLS action, has a worse media market ranking than Minneapolis-St. Paul (16th-ranked). But the proximity of sports media competitors in Tampa-St. Petersburg (13th-ranked) and Orlando (18th-ranked) isn't the reason for the struggles of David Beckham's MLS investment group in Miami.
Like the Metrodome, the Marlins former home was an all-purpose stadium not meant for baseball. And like Target Field, Marlins Park had support of Miamians—as long as they didn't have to pay for it. Despite both of these teams being guilty of fielding uncompetitive rosters for years, they both had two, relatively recent World Series Championships to ease the pain somewhat. The Marlins' 2003 championship spurred the City of Miami to propose the construction of a baseball-only stadium next to the Miami Orange Bowl.
Miami-Dade County was more forthcoming with funding than the City of Miami, proposing a $420-plus million stadium at the Orange Bowl location. But the State of Florida and City of Miami resisted, sparking rumors of the Marlins relocating just as Loria's last team, the Montreal Expos, did prior to Loria receiving (he didn't put a dime down) ownership of the Marlins from then-commissioner Bud Selig to replace Loria's failed business. This didn't help soothe the anxiety of fans who saw their championship roster disappear over the course of two very bad seasons.
On Feb. 21, 2008, MLB COO Bob DuPuy threatened that if a decision wasn't made with regards to funding a stadium for the Marlins that very night, it would be "the death knell for baseball in Miami." Hours later funding was approved by the City of Miami and the County Commissioners for a $525 million home for the Marlins. The plan called for Miami-Dade County residents to flip just $50 million of the bill, with $297 million coming from tourist taxes. The City of Miami would incur $127 million in stadium-related costs.
The finalized deal, however, was for a $634-million stadium, 80 percent of which would be publicly funded. With interest compounding over 40 years, the actual cost to the county to repay the $409 million in bonds would be roughly $2.4 billion. The combined expenses incurred by the city and county for the construction of Marlins Park total $2.61 billion through 2049. Loria just sold the team for $1.2 billion, claiming a loss of $141 million, which would not only allow him to avoid paying the five percent of the sale's proceeds to the public that was agreed upon, but entitle him to the $50 million held in escrow for the city and county.
https://twitter.com/SuttaCBSMiami/status/959488388155035648
Like Loria's Expos, the Twins were an alleged target for contraction for low revenue generation and the inability to get a new stadium built. But Govornor Jesse Ventura and the Minnesota Legislature did manage to agree on a ballpark funding proposal, and the Twins played the 2003 season and six more in the Metrodome. Target Field construction didn't begin until May 2007, but Hennepin County taxpayers hardly noticed the 0.15 sales tax increase and probably thought it was worth it upon seeing the completed structure. It showed in the sixth-ranked attendance during Target Field's inaugural season.
The same cannot be said for Marlins Park, where despite its shiny new digs and dancing marlin statue, the Marlins christened their new ballpark by finishing 18th in attendance.
When it comes to the Wilfs building the best stadium experience in sports, they have the Pohlads and Target Field to thank. Had the Twins saddled the county with billion-dollar debts or built a lemon, U.S. Bank Stadium might have been built for the Las Vegas Vikings. The environment the Pohlads left the Wilfs was as squeaky clean and inviting as the windows that had to be replaced on U.S. Bank Stadium because birds kept flying into them.
The Wilfs didn't build U.S. Bank Stadium quite as clean and easy as the Pohlads did Target Field. Through infrastructure expenditures and other stadium-related spending, both the state and city have exceeded their respective $348-million and $150-million contribution limits that are called for in the state law governing the stadium deal. Also, Minnesota House Republicans want to spend $26 million in the stadium's reserve fund, reserved in case the state is unable to pay its share of the stadium debt, to build veterans homes. But the Wilfs didn't leave a wake like Loria's.
While Beckham and his investors must now convince Miami voters to let them build a billion-dollar MLS soccer and commercial complex before the midterm elections despite it costing taxpayers nothing, MNUFC will move into its new, privately-funded stadium in St. Paul next season, it's third in MLS. Again, Loria's wake has altered all boats in its path, regardless of the boat's size or the size of its passengers' pocketbooks.
MNUFC's Allianz Field cost just $190 million, so not only did the MNUFC ownership group bring MLS to Minnesota swiftly but thriftly. The MNUFC group didn't even have to put out any golf cart fires.
In December 2013, Miami-Dade County commissioners voted unanimously to allow Mayor Carlos A. Giménez to negotiate with David Beckham's group of investors looking to bring MLS to Miami. Almost five years later, the hopes and dreams of David Beckham's Miami MLS investment group are in the hands of understandably skeptical Miami voters, and they have to spend $35 million to clean up toxic soil and another $25 million to the city for park and walkway projects.
People don't easily forget when they've been swindled by billionaire owners of sports teams to pay for the construction of stadiums. Just ask anyone living in Cincinnati. They were swindled twice, and Miamians aren't going to let that happen. Beckham's group might be promising a privately-funded stadium, but everything, from taxes to fast food, gets more expensive when there's a new stadium to fill.

Novartis publishes CTL019 data for acute lymphoblastic leukemia
CenterWatch Staff
Novartis and the University of Pennsylvania's Perelman School of Medicine have announced preliminary results from two pilot clinical trials published in The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) evaluating the efficacy and safety of CTL019 in patients with relapsed/refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (r/r ALL). The studies, conducted by Penn, demonstrated that 27 of 30 pediatric and adult patients, or 90%, experienced complete remissions with the investigational chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) therapy CTL019.
"These interim results, which supported the recent FDA Breakthrough Therapy designation, reinforce the potential CTL019 has as a life-saving therapy for patients with relapsed/refractory ALL," said Usman Azam, global head, cell and gene therapies unit, Novartis Pharmaceuticals. "These studies are another promising development in CTL019's history. With each new CTL019 milestone, we are one step closer to potentially offering these seriously ill patients an additional treatment option."
These data build on earlier research findings and are part of two pilot clinical studies that demonstrated sustained remissions of up to two years in pediatric and adult patients with r/r ALL. Median follow-up was just over six months, with event-free survival of 67% and overall survival of 78%. Probability of six-month CTL019 persistence was 68% and CTL019-modified T cells were detectable in the blood by flow cytometry for up to 11 months.
Sustained remissions were seen in 15 patients and were associated with CAR T cell persistence and B cell aplasia.
"We are excited by these results, which indicated how effective CTL019 may be in fighting ALL, a leading cause of childhood cancer deaths," said lead investigator Stephan Grupp, M.D., Ph.D., the Yetta Deitch Novotny professor of pediatrics in the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and director of Translational Research in the Center for Childhood Cancer Research at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), where 25 pediatric patients were treated in the study cohort.
In July, the FDA designated CTL019 as a Breakthrough Therapy under the Penn IND, which is intended to expedite the development and review of drugs that treat serious or life-threatening conditions if the therapy has demonstrated substantial improvement over an available therapy on at least one clinically significant endpoint.
Novartis holds the worldwide rights to CARs developed through the collaboration with Penn for all cancer indications, including the lead program, CTL019.
Twenty-five patients enrolled in the pediatric pilot trial at CHOP and five patients enrolled in the adult pilot trial at Penn from April 2012 to February 2014. The patients were infused with autologous T cells transduced with a CD19-directed CAR (CTL019) lentiviral vector at doses of 0.7-20.6x10(6) CTL019 cells/kg. The study found that 27 of 30 pediatric and adult patients with r/r ALL (90%) experienced complete remissions, including two blinatumomab-refractory patients and 15 with prior stem cell transplant.
Of the 27 patients who achieved a complete remission, five went off-study for alternate therapy, three of whom proceeded to allogeneic SCT in remission. Fifteen patients remain in remission with a median follow-up of seven months. Sustained remissions were achieved up to two years with six-month event-free survival 67% (95% CI, 51% to 88%) and overall survival 78% (95% CI, 65% to 95%). The probability of six-month CTL019 persistence was 68% (95% CI, 50 to 92%) and relapse-free B cell aplasia was 73% (95% CI, 57 to 97%).
CTL019-modified T cells were detectable in the blood by flow cytometry for up to 11 months, and CTL019 sequences remained detectable by quantitative PCR (Q-PCR) in patients with sustained remissions for up to two years.
All patients experienced cytokine release syndrome (CRS). Of the 30 patients, 74% (n=22) experienced mild to moderate CRS. Severe CRS, seen in 27% of patients (n=8), was associated with higher disease burden and effectively treated with the IL-6 receptor antibody tocilizumab. Several patients experienced neurologic toxicities, which fully resolved without further intervention or apparent long-term implications.
ALL is the most common cancer diagnosed in children, representing approximately 25% of cancer diagnoses among children younger than 15 years, according to data published in 2013. It can also occur in adults. ALL is a type of cancer in which the bone marrow makes too many abnormal white blood cells (lymphocytes). ALL usually gets worse quickly if it is not treated and can be fatal within a few months; therefore, it is critical for patients to start treatment soon after diagnosis. Patients with relapsed ALL experience ALL cells returning in the marrow and a decrease in normal blood cells following their remission.

Rosalyn Tureck, the pianist and celebrated Bach specialist who helped feed the revival of his music in the 1930s and '40s, died Thursday at her home in New York City. She was 88. No cause of death was announced.
Defying conventional wisdom that Bach should be played only on a harpsichord, Tureck created a stir in the music world by playing his works on the modern grand piano. She generated the same kind of interest that Glen Gould did with his unique interpretations a generation later. Indeed, Gould acknowledged her as an influence.
"He did notice some things that I did," Tureck told London Guardian writer Rob Cowan in 2000, "but he had no idea of my reasons for doing them."
Born in Chicago, Tureck was the third of three daughters of a cantor from Kiev and a Turkish mother. She taught herself piano by imitating the lessons she overheard her sister taking.
She began her own lessons in 1925 with Sophia Brilliant-Liven, a former teaching assistant to Anton Rubinstein, and continued studies with Bach-specialist Jan Chiapusso. Later she studied with Olga Samaroff at the Juilliard School, from which she graduated in 1935.
Early in her career, she performed the standard romantic repertory, making her debut with the Philadelphia Orchestra under Eugene Ormandy in the Brahms Second Concerto and touring with Dmitri Mitropoulos and the Minneapolis Orchestra, playing Rachmaninoff's Second Piano Concerto, both in 1936.
Tureck also had a vivid interest in contemporary music, giving first performances of William Schuman's concerto and of David Diamond's first sonata, which was written for her.
She had been fascinated with electronic instruments as early as 10, when she heard Leon Theremin's new invention in which sounds were produced by moving one's hands through the space between two metal poles. In fact, she made her Carnegie Hall debut playing a Bach concerto on the Theremin. In 1951, she founded Composers of Today, a society for the performance of major contemporary music, which sponsored a 1952 concert by Vladimir Ussaschevsky, said to have been the first tape and electronic music concert played in the United States.
But in the late '50s, she decided to give up everything else and focus exclusively on Bach.
One of her celebrated feats was to play Bach's "Goldberg Variations" first on the harpsichord and then on the piano. "I wanted to prove what I say, that it is the music that matters, not the instrument," she said.
Indeed, on occasion, she would also play the clavichord, organ, electronic piano or the Moog Synthesizer.
"Performing on period instruments does not prevent the intrusion of anachronisms," she wrote in 1999. "The medium is not the message. Great musical art is infinitely more complex."
Tureck's approach to Bach had emerged from a kind of mystical revelation. A week before her 17th birthday, while playing a Bach fugue, she fell into what she later described as a trance in which she had a "sudden blinding insight" about a new method of playing Bach. The new method meant abandoning the notion of right-hand/left-hand opposition and melody versus harmony.
"It took me three days to do four lines," she said later. "But as my fingers absorbed my mission, it gradually got faster. Each finger had to be absolutely independent, to bring out all the parts evenly without a trace of muddiness. Bach should not be thought of in linear terms: The connections are vertical and diagonal."
Her playing was distinguished by clarity of line, sharply defined rhythms and intensity of feeling. Reviews were almost consistently good.
Composer Virgil Thomson wrote in the New York Times in 1945: "The secret of her work at its best seems to be that her passionate nature finds its completest expression in works that demand by their own nature an objective approach."
Almost a decade later, in 1954, a critic of the London Times lauded her: "The encomiums she has received are not exaggerated; she plays the piano beautifully and Bach authentically. She demolishes our cherished purism and proves the piano a better instrument than a harpsichord, and better for Bach."
Generally, she found greater and more responsive audiences in Europe than in America, and she chose to live in Oxford, England, in the 1960s to be closer to her friends Bertrand Russell, Isaiah Berlin and Robert Oppenheimer. There she founded the Tureck Bach Players, the International Bach Society and later, the Tureck Bach Institute.
An active teacher through much of her career, Tureck taught at the Mannes School of Music in New York, 1940-44; at the Juilliard School, 1943-55; at Columbia University, 1944-55; and at UC San Diego, 1966-72. Her publications include "Introduction to the Performance of Bach," a series of essays in three volumes, and her own edition of some of Bach's music.
She retired from the concert stage in 1999.
Married twice, she is survived by a sister, Sonya Goldsmith of Pittsburgh.

Cellphone unlocking bill passes House, includes limits on reselling
US House of Representatives passes bill to allow cellphone unlocking, leaves in controversial limit on bulk reselling though
By: Charles Gantt from Feb 26, 2014 @ 20:27 CST
Today the US House of Representatives passed a bill that makes it legal for consumers to unlock their cell phones if they wish to take it to another carrier. The bill passed with a vote of 295 to 114, and is now headed to the Senate where it is also expected to pass. If the bill does make it through congress, then it will let consumers unlock their phones without fear of legal ramifications, something that has been illegal since a supreme court ruling in 2012.
The practice was deemed illegal based on wording in the Digital Millennium Copyright Act that prevents circumventing of content protection systems, something that was intended to protect DRM on music, video games, and other digital media. Unfortunately the supreme court and lawmakers twisted these words around to include cellular phones under the DMCA's "protection." If passed, this bill could set precedence on who legally owns the cellphone, and if subsidization of devices can legally ban the use of that phone on a network it was not subsidized for.
Unfortunately this bill, even if passed and signed into law, will have to be reexamined in just two years, and it also includes an add-on bill that would limit the bulk reselling of any smartphones that have been unlocked. This makes it hard for aging smartphones to be recycled back into the market as cheaper alternatives to those who want a phone but not necessarily an expensive flagship.

Should your church use YouTube or podcast?
On today's Tech Help for Churches, Should your church podcast or use YouTube?
-Cost–When you consider how much it costs to upload and maintain files, YouTube is the clear winner with a cost of $0.
-Audio–If your content is audio only, you might consider putting up a still graphic and uploading that with the audio to YouTube, but you'll find that people only watch for a short amount of time before they drop off and doing this consistently trains them to ignore your channel, so if you ever do real video, they won't watch it. If you're only doing audio, do a podcast.
-Traffic–If all you want is a ton of traffic, YouTube is the clear winner here.
-Dedicated traffic–If you want traffic that is much more likely to actually be looking for what you're sending out, a podcast is a better solution.
-Copyright–You control the feed with a podcast, so YouTube can't pull it down for supposed copyright violations. With that said, there isn't a good license to get for podcasting worship music, so both have their plusses and minusses.
-Access to audience–With YouTube and a podcast, you have people who will subscribe. While YouTube has the ability to send messages to that audience, that could go away or change at anytime. If people subscribe on your website to a podcast, they might subscribe to a newsletter, too and then you can email them directly. That's unlikely though. Both allow you to contact people, but neither is awesome at it.
-Control of platform–If YouTube wants, your account could disappear at anytime for any reason. I know of a channel with controversial views (on something political, not church-related), that, although he had millions of subscribers and many more views, he was pulled by YouTube. Happily his channel came back, but there's not guarantee. You have MUCH more control with a podcast.
So, how about you? Which of these things pushes you over the edge one way or another? Watch the video above for more on this discussion.

NJ lowers flags for student, a National Guard recruit, killed in crash
Pfc. Anthony P. Steitz (McCracken Funeral Home)
TRENTON — Flags in the state will fly at half staff on Friday in honor of a Union High School student and recent National Guard recruit who died after a car crash late Saturday night.
Pfc. Anthony Steitz, a 17-year-old high school junior and member of the Junior ROTC program, was on his way home after attending the JROTC military ball when his car went off the road on Route 78 in Watchung shortly before midnight. He was pronounced dead on Sunday.
The car slammed into several trees, police said. He was the only one in the vehicle.
The cause of the crash remained under investigation by the State Police.
In an executive order, Gov. Phil Murphy cited the 17-year-old's "outstanding achievements" as a member of the JROTC and the National Guard. Murphy said that hours before the crash at the ball, Steitz was awarded the group's highest achievement, the Superior Cadet Award.
Services will be 1 to 5 p.m. and 7 to 9 p.m. Thursday at McCracken Funeral Home on Morris Avenue in Union. His funeral is 10 a.m. Friday.

ffmpeg -hwaccel vaapi -hwaccel_device /dev/dri/renderD128 -hwaccel_output_format vaapi -c:v mjpeg -f v4l2 -input_format mjpeg -framerate 30 -video_size 1920x1080 -i /dev/video0 -vf 'scale_vaapi=format=nv12' -c:v hevc_vaapi -map 0:a? -map 0:s? -c:s copy -rc_mode 1 -qp 25 -map_chapters 0 output.mp4 -y

And it seems to work fine, no skipped frames, smooth transcoding, only 2-3% CPU usage. However the video output file is completely skewed.
For some reason FFMPEG splits the video into two pieces where one half of the video is the actually the proper video and the other half is all skewed up.
Here is a picture of the video output:
imgur
Note: The camera is a CCTV camera, which is using it's infrared LEDs to view in the dark room. So it is in greyscale color due to the camera and not any issues based on transcoding.
Here is the output video file:

Any clue why this is happening?
OS: Arch Linux
GPU: AMD Radeon Pro WX 2100.
Thanks for any advice.


On early model vehicles the metal was thick, which had advantages and disadvantages. First of all, they had a lot of metal to work with. This allowed body men to hammer, dolly and pick on the metal, then file the top surface knocking the high areas down. Then they could repeat the process, work the metal and file the surface level. This allowed the body man to metal finish much of the damages without the need of body fillers. This is called metal finishing. If there were still a few imperfections remaining, the body man would use lead to fill the lows and file the surface level and smooth.
The advantage they had was the possibility to straighten and work the metal without the use of fillers. If we tried to use those methods on vehicles today, we would have a hole in the part from filing through the part. If we didn't file a hole through the part, it would be very thin and weak. Another advantage of working on early model vehicles is being able to get to both sides of the panel. Vehicles today have limited access. It is hard to get behind most panels to use the hammer and dolly method. The disadvantage of working metal on early model cars was the strength of the thick steel; it hard to move, unlock, and reshape. It took a lot more force to move the thick metal when straightening. The lead filler that was used also took more time and skill to fill the small imperfections. We are also more educated about lead today and the safety hazards of it.
Today's vehicles are thinner and have very limited access. However, improved fillers, such as body filler and tools have made the job easier. The most common tool to use for repairing dents is a stud nail gun. The cost of a stud nail gun ranges between $200 to $500. This tool tacks a small nail to the surface. Then you get a slide hammer or t-handle to pull on the nail. Therefore, you tack the nails to the low areas and lightly tap on the high areas with a body hammer. It is important to do this at the same time. Just pulling out on the low area will cause the metal to be over pulled and stretch the metal. Just hammering in on the highs may cause the entire area to be hammered in too much. This is referred to as chasing your damage around. It is always better to have multiple forces at one time. You need to think of it as rolling the damage out, rather than hammering or beating it out. The metal wants to go back to its original shape, you just need to help persuade it to. Forcing metal will result in stretched metal.
When you have access, a hammer and dolly can be used. This is probably going to be the fastest way to repair the damage if you have access. When performing auto body repair, think like electricity. Electricity move where ever it is easiest for it to pass through. The path of least resistance. This is why a ground wire is used on homes. If lightening hits your house, it will follow that ground wire that is attached to a ground rod that in hammered in the ground, as that is the path of least resistance. When determining how to repair a dent, just try to think of what would be easiest. Just because you have an expensive piece of equipment does not mean that you have to use it every time. If you can reach behind the panel and pull out on the low with one hand and push down on the high with the other hand, then simply use your hand to repair the damage. It may still need a little hammer and dolly work afterwords, but I have repaired many dents with nothing but my hands. Remember today's metals are thin and it does not take much to dent or repair it.
Whether you're working on early or late model vehicles, just remember to select the tools that will make the job easiest to repair. Don't over work the thin metal on late model vehicles, as the metals are thin. The use of body filler will help repair the surface back to its original shape.

Long Beach State at Utah State (Tuesday): Long Beach State is one of the Big West favorites, while Utah State is the WAC leader despite a blowout loss at Georgetown.
Providence at Boston College (Wednesday): Another battle in New England, this one between two teams who are playing better than expected thus far.
BYU at Vermont (Wednesday): Jimmer Fredette's return home to Glen Falls, N.Y. Vermont only has one loss on the season, so it won't be a pushover.
Seton Hall at Arkansas (Wednesday): Seton Hall was expected to compete for an at-large bid, but a loss here would drop them below .500 on the season.
Oakland at Illinois (Wednesday): Illinois played tremendously well against Gonzaga on Saturday, while Oakland has Keith Benson, who can give the Illini problems.
Vanderbilt at No. 9 Missouri (Wednesday): Missouri has been somewhat inconsistent at times this season, while Vandy is flying below the radar.
No. 25 Notre Dame at No. 10 Kentucky (Wednesday): Notre Dame has a decent collection of neutral-site wins this season; can the Irish defeat an up-and-down UK group?
No. 17 San Diego State at California (Wednesday): San Diego State is the best non-BCS team in the country this season; Cal is struggling at both ends this year.
Gonzaga at Washington State (Wednesday): Gonzaga has been a disappointment so far, while Washington State nearly beat Kansas State in Pullman on Friday.
No. 16 Georgetown at Temple (Thursday): Georgetown is quietly moving itself into the top-10 discussion, while Temple escaped with a nice win over Maryland Sunday.
Butler at Xavier (Thursday): Two of the best non-BCS programs of the past decade do battle, although neither team has the look of a Sweet 16 team this season.

This Portable Coffee Machine Makes Cold Brew in Four Minutes Flat
Taveesaksri, iStock / Getty Images Plus
If you've ever made cold brew coffee at home, you know that though it's an easy process, it takes a long time. Like, really long. But what if your craving for a refreshing glass of iced coffee wasn't immediately dashed away by the realization that, if you wanted cold brew, you would've had to start making it at least 12 hours ago?
With the G-Presso, you'll never have to feel that disappointment again. The innovative coffeemaker, available now on Kickstarter, uses a gyro-pressed extraction method to transform your water and coffee grounds into summer's hottest cold drink in an impressive four minutes flat.
All you have to do is add coffee grounds (a fine grind will create a bold, intense flavor, while a medium grind will give you more mild coffee) and up to five cups of water. Then press the power button on top of the machine and watch the G-Presso work its magic.
Here's how it does it: The porous container with the coffee grounds inside spins rapidly, while the water above filters through it. The pressure created by the centrifugal force releases the coffee's full-body sweetness and flavor in a fraction of the time it would take for that process to happen on its own. Your coffee will also be topped with a rich crema, similar to what you see on top of an espresso shot (which you don't normally get with regular cold brew).
You might think that such a fast-paced, energy-filled process would generate a lot of noise, but the developers at Camfron Co. wanted to make sure they didn't ruin your tranquil summer mornings (or afternoons) with a buzzsaw-esque whirring, so they created a noise-blocking silicon pad for the G-Presso to sit on.
The G-Presso is powered by three AAA batteries, making it perfect for bringing to a friend's house, on vacation, or anywhere else you might need a cool, caffeinated pick-me-up but don't have room for a full-on coffee machine. For cold weather or frigid apartments, you can certainly opt for hot coffee instead—just use boiling water.
But you don't have to limit your choices to cold or hot coffee. The G-Presso comes with a milk whisk that magnetically connects to the detachable control stick from the water container, giving you the ability to froth your way to the latte of your dreams.
Prices for the G-Presso start at $64 (which includes one machine, one extra basket, and 90 grams of ground coffee) for August delivery. You can view additional buying options on Kickstarter.
While you wait for your G-Presso to arrive, check out some other home-brewing coffee hacks here. And if you plan on drinking a lot of cold brew this summer, you may want to invest in a tumbler and reusable straws to make your coffee addiction a little more eco-friendly.

Keep Your Kitchen Clean With This Spoon Rest That Clips Straight Onto Your Pot
BY Michele Debczak
No matter how clean you keep things between meals, your organized, tidy kitchen can easily turn to chaos when it's time to start cooking. You can take steps to mitigate this, like setting up a mise en place and cleaning as you go, but some messy kitchen habits are hard to avoid. One of them is resting a dirty spoon on the counter while making stews, sauces, or anything else that requires lots of tasting and stirring as it cooks on the stove. If wiping off your spoon after each dip is an unrealistic goal, there's another way to stay neat.
The Trudeau flex pot clip, currently available on Amazon, is a spoon rest that keeps utensils raised off clean surfaces. It's made from tough stainless steel and silicone that stays cool to the touch even when attached to a pot of boiling water. The opening is big enough to hold bulky cooking tools like wooden spoons, tongs, and pasta forks. There's also a small divot for securing smaller items, like regular silverware.
Strong enough to withstand temperatures of up to 482°F, the pot clip is a great tool for stovetop cooking. But even if you're not cooking with fire, the accessory can help you maintain a clean kitchen. Clip it to the side of your bowl before mixing cookie dough, or use it as a spot to hold the ladle for your punch bowl. And when you're no longer using it, you can toss it in the dishwasher for easy clean-up.
You can purchase a Trudeau flex pot clip for $8 on Amazon. If you're looking for more tools to round out your kitchen inventory, here are some affordable basics to consider.

10 Frank Facts About Hot Dogs
BY Rebekah Shoemake
StephanieFrey/iStock via Getty Images
Americans love a good hot dog—so much so that, according to the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council, we consume about 20 billion of them a year, which works out to about 70 hot dogs per person. In celebration of National Hot Dog Month (July) and National Hot Dog Day (July 17), here are some facts about franks to enjoy during your own summer barbecues.
1. Hot dogs have a surprisingly contentious origin.
Sausages have a history that stretches back to at least the time of Homer's Odyssey, but the origin of the hot dog is just as tricky to pin down. There are multiple claimants to the invention of the hot dog, each with a slightly different innovation. Was the hot dog invented by the first person to shorten the name of German dachshund sausages to "hot dogs," or the first person to put a sausage in a bread roll, or the first person to create a dedicated bun for holding a sausage? All of these creators have laid claim to the title of Hot Dog Inventor, but none have been conclusively verified.
2. Hot dogs might be sandwiches.
Hot dogs are tricky to define in another way as well, and both the general public and official organizations seem to have very strong opinions on whether hot dogs fall into the category of sandwiches or not. The National Hot Dog and Sausage Council says hot dogs are their own entities, but Merriam-Webster supports calling a hot dog a sandwich, based on the fact that it is just a piece of split bread with a filling.
3. Los Angelenos consume the most hot dogs per year.
While you might expect Midwestern grill-masters to buy up the most hot dogs, the actual top consumers are Los Angelenos, who purchase 34 million pounds of franks a year. And Californians also top the per capita rankings: as of 2010, San Francisco consumed the most hot dogs per person per year.
4. Regional hot dog styles add a serious punch to the basic dog.
Chicago is famous for dogs with onion, relish, pepper, pickle, tomato, mustard, and celery salt, but Coney Island-style hot dogs with chili, cheese, mustard, and onions are popular in their eponymous region and in Michigan. The South prefers slaw and chili on its hot dogs, while wrapping them in bacon and deep frying are popular in other regions.
5. Japan has invented some colorful hot dogs.
The Japanese also love their original hot dog varieties, and black hot dogs took over the Tokyo market in 2013. The bun and sausage are dyed with black charcoal ash, which apparently makes no difference to the flavor.
6. Hot dogs and baseball have a long history.
Sausages have been served at baseball games since at least the 1890s. One story says that they were first served at the ballpark by the German who owned the St. Louis Browns, while another story claims an ice cream vendor decided to switch his product on a particularly cold day at the ballpark. Either way, they're still going strong after more than 120 years.
7. Hot dogs are the headliners at America's most famous eating competition.
While legend has it that the first hot dog eating contest was held in 1916 to settle a casual bet—over who was the most patriotic, no less—the first recorded contest was in 1972. In that event, the winner ate 14 hot dogs in 12 minutes. In 2018, competitive eating legend—and now 12-time Nathan's champion Joey Chestnut—set a new event record, polishing off 74 hot dogs (and buns) in 10 minutes.
8. Hot dogs have been fed to royalty.
In 1939, the King and Queen of Great Britain visited Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt in Hyde Park, New York. In true American spirit, the First Lady made sure to serve hot dogs during a picnic at their Hudson River property. Apparently, King George VI enjoyed them so much that he asked for seconds.
9. Hot dogs made Clara Bow famous.
To drum up business, the newly minted Nathan's Famous hot dog restaurant at Coney Island hired a pretty redhead to serve its customers. Soon after, she was discovered by a vacationing talent scout, and became internationally famous as the silent film era's "It Girl," Clara Bow.
10. There is official hot dog etiquette.
The National Hot Dog and Sausage Council put out this video on the correct way to eat a hot dog. The whole video is worth a watch, but some highlights include: no ketchup if you're over the age of 18, no wine pairings, no utensils, and it should only take five bites to consume the entire hot dog (though you can take seven bites for a footlong). It might not be proper Emily Post material, but how can you argue with the "Queen of Wien"?

DAVOS: As artificial intelligence gains currency, leaders at top technology companies including Microsoft and IBM today said there is a need to create "new collar jobs" as innovations would replace some jobs and existing employees would need to be re-trained.
Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said Artificial Intelligence (AI) is moving on the right ladder and highlighted its importance in reviving the sluggish global GDP growth.
Confident that all concerns on it are being handled, he said, at a session on AI at a WEF session here that the world is also going to move from supervised state to "non-supervised" state.
IBM CEO Ginni Rometty said AI will replace some jobs, but most of us will be working with these systems.
She called for creating "new collar jobs" by imparting new skills to the existing workforce and hoped countries like India would see many youngsters joining a new data economy.
According to Nadella, data today shows that the world GDP growth is not "something great" and that calls for the need for new innovations like AI being taken very seriously.
"We can choose whether AI replaces or augments humanity at work," Nadella said, adding that it is our responsibility to have AI augment human abilities.

President Donald Trump speaks at a campaign rally, September 22, 2017, in Huntsville, Alabama.
President Donald Trump's approach in handling North Korea may be alleviating worries of a potential conflict.
Fifty-one percent of Americans approve of Trump's approach to the regime, up nine points from March and 17 points from January.
Despite the historical circumstance of the planned meeting between Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, only 38% of Americans believe it would make the situation better, while 19% say it would make it worse.
As a potentially historic US-North Korea summit looms, President Donald Trump's unorthodox approach to handling the regime may be alleviating worries of a potential conflict, if a new CBS News poll is any indication.
Fifty-one percent of Americans approve of Trump's handling of North Korea, up 9 points from March and 17 points from January, CBS reported Monday.
Overall, Trump's approach gained support from respondents who identify as Democrats and those who consider themselves Republican, but a noticeable partisan divide is still apparent: 90% of Republicans said they approve of Trump's handling of North Korea, while 25% of Democrats said the same, according to CBS.
Forty-nine percent of independents said they approve, up 5 points from March.
Trump also appears to be slowly easing worries of a potential conflict with North Korea; with 55% of respondents feeling uneasy about the possible conflict — down nine points from March and 17 points from 2017.
The latest figure marks the highest approval rating for Trump's response to North Korea, which turned a sharp corner after the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang. Following the seemingly warmed relations between South and North Korea, the regime struck a conciliatory tone with the US and extended an invitation for a meeting to Trump.
The location and date of the summit between Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has yet to be made public, however, Trump said it would be held sometime in late May or early June. US intelligence officials have already established communications with their North Korean counterparts, and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has visited the country ahead of the summit.
Despite the unprecedented scale of the meeting, only 38% of Americans believe it would make the situation better, while 19% say it would make it worse.

Multicam Ammo Pouch -- Multicam Ammo Pouch Description: Elastic Slit With Secondary Velcro Flap Size : 7" H x 6 1/2" W x 3" D MultiCam is a single camouflage pattern designed to help the wearer hide in varied environments, seasons, elevations and light conditions. It was designed to address the real-world need for concealment in different environments, with one basic kit of gear. HOW IT WORKS: Takes on the shade of the surrounding environment by adapting to varying local lighting conditions, the pattern blend in well in many environments, elevations, seasons, weather conditions and times of the day. Since only a small portion of the human eye perceives color, the brain does a lot of "filling in" for the eye. MultiCam takes advantage of this principle and helps the observer to "see" the pattern as part of the background. MultiCam relies more on a blending effect than a contrast effect to disguise the wearer. This effect allows it to perform in a wide range of environments and keeps the pattern effective even at close distances.
Multicam Double AR/AK Mag Pouch -- Multicam Double AR/AK Mag Pouch Size : 7 1/2" H x 6 1/2" W x 3 1/2" D MultiCam is a single camouflage pattern designed to help the wearer hide in varied environments, seasons, elevations and light conditions. It was designed to address the real-world need for concealment in different environments, with one basic kit of gear.
