Sometimes, cancer cannot be cured. When that is the case, patients and families are faced with complex emotions and a variety of end-of-life issues.
A terminally ill person has no expectation of a cure for his or her disease or illness, but still requires a lot of care and comfort. Knowing what a dying person understands about his or her condition, as well as his or her fears, feelings, emotions and physical changes that occur, may help those around them make coping with the diagnosis and final process easier.
The emotional, physical and spiritual impact a dying friend, family member or spouse has on a family and community cannot be measured. Understanding how people at different ages and developmental levels view death and dying may help to alleviate many of the fears and uncertainties associated with this process.
Prolonged illness vs. sudden loss?
Everyone has his or her own unique concept of death. Past experiences with death, as well as one's age, emotional development and surroundings, are what most influence one's own concept of death. Movies, television and books are filled with images of death. The person with a terminal condition may have previously lost a family member, friend or pet. Treating death as a part of life is difficult, but may help alleviate some of the fear and confusion associated with it. Dealing with death must be done within the beliefs of the family.
For an infant, death has no real concept. Infants do, however, react to separation from parent(s), painful procedures and any alteration in his or her routine. An infant that is terminally ill will require as much care, physically and emotionally, to maintain a comfortable environment. Maintaining a consistent routine is important for the infant and his or her caregivers. Because infants cannot verbally communicate their needs, fear is often expressed by crying.
For the toddler, death has very little meaning, but when a toddler's parents and loved ones are sad, depressed, scared or angry, they sense these emotions and may become upset or afraid. The terms "death" or "forever" or "permanent" may not have real value to children of this age group. Even with previous experiences with death, the child may not understand the relationship between life and death.
Preschool-aged children may begin to understand that death is something feared by adults. This age group may view death as temporary or reversible, as in cartoons. Death is often explained to this age group as "went to heaven." Most children in this age group do not understand that death is permanent, that everyone and every living thing will eventually die and that dead things do not eat, sleep or breathe. Death should not be explained as "sleep" to prevent the possible development of a sleep disorder.
Preschooler's experience with death is influenced by those around them. They may ask questions about "why" and "how" death occurs. The preschool child may feel that his or her thoughts or actions have caused the death and/or sadness of those around. The preschool child may have feelings of guilt and shame.
When a child in this age group becomes seriously ill, they may believe it is their punishment for something they did or thought about. They do not understand how their parents could not have protected them from this illness.
Preschool-age siblings of a dying child may feel as if they are the cause of the illness and death. Young siblings of dying children need reassurance and comforting during this time period as well.
School-aged children are developing a more realistic understanding of death. Although death may be personified as an angel, skeleton or ghost, this age group is beginning to understand death as permanent, universal and inevitable. They may be very curious about the physical process of death and what happens after a person dies. They may fear their own death because of uncertainty of what happens to them after they die. Fear of the unknown, loss of control and separation from family and friends can be the school-aged child's main sources of anxiety and fear related to death.
As with people of all ages, past experiences and emotional development greatly influence an adolescent's concept of death. Most adolescents understand the concept that death is permanent, universal and inevitable. They may or may not have had past experiences with death of a family member, friend or pet. Adolescents, similar to adults, may want to have their religious or cultural rituals observed.
Most adolescents are beginning to establish their identity, independence and relationship to peer groups. A predominant theme in adolescence is feeling immortal. Denial and defiant attitudes may suddenly change the personality of a teenager facing death. An adolescent may feel as if he or she no longer belongs or fits in with peers. In addition, he or she may feel unable to communicate with parents or other authority figures.
Another important concept to adolescents is self-image. A terminal illness and/or the effects of treatment may cause many physical changes that must be endured. The adolescent may feel alone in this struggle and scared and angry.
It is important for parents to realize that children of all ages respond to death in unique ways. Children need support and, in particular, someone who will listen to their thoughts and provide reassurance to alleviate their fears.
Prolonged illness, such as cancer, brings with it the knowledge that death may occur. Anticipating the loss of a loved one can be just as painful and stressful as the actual act of losing that person. This period can be a time to resolve issues and concerns, seek the support of spiritual leaders, family and friends, and clarify the loved one's wishes for funeral and burial arrangements and other end-of-life issues.
Sudden loss is a death that happens unexpectedly and suddenly, such as a fatal accident or heart attack. Such tragedies can leave survivors feeling shocked and confused. Loved ones are often left with many questions, unresolved issues and a range of emotions, including anger, guilt and pain. Support from family, friends and clergy is vital to persons experiencing sudden loss.
Many, although not all, people facing their own death are willing to discuss issues of death and dying. This period can be a time to discuss spiritual issues, resolve family concerns, reflect on a loved one's life and accomplishments, and express gratitude. It also provides an opportunity to put practical matters in order, including the following.
What are the individual's specific funeral wishes?
Can the person direct others regarding important practical issues, such as wills, bank accounts, lawyer's name, pension plans, retirement funds and life insurance policies?


Unlimited Net Worth: Worst investing advice ever!
I've pulled out 10 of the worst pieces of advice I've seen on the internet for your amusement!
It's never a bad time to invest in gold: Gold is the most popular precious metal used as an investment. It's always nice to be able to physically see your investment, like with a house or art since it feels tangible rather than numbers on a screen. But with this ownership means you also have to pay for storage and insurance. Even worse, the capital gains on gold are 28% versus the ordinary capital gains rate of 15%. My favorite example from Wikipedia outlines golds high volatility rate compared to stocks and bonds: …"while a dollar invested in bonds in 1801 would be worth nearly a thousand dollars by 1998, a dollar invested in stocks that same year would be worth more than half a million dollars in real terms. Meanwhile, a dollar invested in gold in 1801 would by 1998 be worth just 78 cents." I will stick to investing in stocks and my only gold investment will be my wedding ring.
You don't want to be the richest man in the graveyard. While I agree with the sentiment of this quote, it sends the wrong message that validates people into thinking they should spend their money now (YOLO!) rather than save it in a miserly Grinch-like fashion to the end. There is nothing selfish in saving for retirement and ensuring you have planned your affairs so you don't outlive your savings. Per his Giving Pledge, Warren Buffet pledged to give 99% of his wealth to charity on or before his death. His logic for waiting until his death to pledge the full amount is that he can make the most of his money during his lifetime to ensure the largest donation. It's wonderful we have people like Warren who are the richest man in the graveyard and have a plan for their finances.
It's better to buy things now since money may have no value and at least you will have your things. The ones saying this are also the ones who say there will be a Zombie apocalypse and you would be better off buying a new car than investing in a future non-existent stock market. The resale values of discarded merchandise are never what you hope they are and I've sent too many items to Goodwill because of poor impulsive purchases. It's better to save now and earn more money off your money than purchase an item that will not bring you any further value.
Buy stocks in companies whose products and services you like. I like a lot of things that most white girls like, like pizza, shoes and yoga pants, but that doesn't mean I am going to invest in stock in Dominos, Zappos and Lululemon. Just because I like an individual product doesn't mean the company as a whole is a solid investment or I know anything about the company's financials. You need to invest in the whole market and not just one small segment that you think you know because you live near a Dominos that seems to be popular.
Cash is king: Some advisers recommend keeping some assets in fixed investments, like bonds and cash. This is because of the flexibility and stability in knowing that you can never lose the investment. This reminds me of the old Parable of the Talents from Matthew 25:14-30. A wise man was going away and gave his 3 servants talents. The first two doubled their talents upon his return. The 3rd servant was scared of his master and hid the talent in the ground and returned it to the man upon his return. The 3rd servant was rejected and cursed by the master for not returning a value on the investment. Investing in cash is much like this strategy of putting your money in a hole and pulling it out when it is needed- even the Bible tells you it is wrong! You literally lose money by this strategy due to inflation.
The housing market always goes up! This quote is often accompanied by a homeowner's heartwarming story that they bought their home 30 years ago for $100K and now it is worth 5x as much! It seems like such a great investment since you have to live somewhere anyways and it's like a forced investment strategy by paying your mortgage. Plus, the tax incentives. Well, owning a house is no longer the American dream. Foreclosure rates are at their highest and the real estate market is volatile. Imagine the "great investment" that homeowner made if they bought their home in Detroit or New Orleans 30 years ago? Housing has an annualized appreciation rate of just 2% while the average annualized growth rate of the S&P 500 is 10%. Where would you rather put your money?
Invest when the market is hot! If everyone is saying the market is hot, then it most certainly is not the right time to invest as you've already missed out on much of the gains. Investing is a long term strategy and you shouldn't pull your money in or out due to the expected daily ups and downs of the market. Sadly, you can't time the market.
I have a great stock you need to buy (hint, hint). If your barber/friend/coworker or taxi driver tells you to invest in a stock since they have some tip it's going to be a winner, don't take the bait! The only way he really knows a new stock is going to go up drastically tomorrow is if he has insider information, which is very much illegal and not a great idea unless you want to become new friends with the SEC.
You are too young to worry about retirement. This is akin to saying "don't worry about the future". Rather I would like to retire young and invest in my freedom from a 9-5 job by investing aggressively. And the magic of compounding interest inside a tax-free Roth IRA makes investing young the very best option for saving for retirement.
Fancy stock brokers and advisers will save you money! The tradition to clap at the close of the US stock exchanges everyday recognizes a job well done by all at the market. If the market went down or up, the applause always sounds because the stock brokers always made their money. These brokers make their cut at every sale regardless of if the sale did well or poorly for the client. Spending more on a financial advisor or stock broker is unnecessary and will just cut away at your bottom line. Invest instead in low cost strategies like index funds that return similar to the overall market without taking away an unnecessary 2%. Where are all the client's yachts?

Black Panther in Exile: The Pete O'Neal Story

In the tumultuous year after Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination, 29-year-old Pete O'Neal became inspired by reading The Autobiography of Malcolm X and founded the Kansas City branch of the Black Panther Party (BPP).

In the tumultuous year after Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination, 29-year-old Pete O'Neal became inspired by reading The Autobiography of Malcolm X and founded the Kansas City branch of the Black Panther Party (BPP). The same year, FBI director J. Edgar Hoover declared the BPP was the "greatest threat to the internal security of the country." This book is the gripping story of O'Neal, one of the influential members of the movement, who now lives in Africa—unable to return to the United States but refusing to renounce his past. Arrested in 1969 and convicted for transporting a shotgun across state lines, O'Neal was free on bail pending his appeal when Fred Hampton, chairman of the Illinois chapter of the BPP, was assassinated by the police. O'Neal and his wife fled the U.S. for Algiers. Eventually they settled in Tanzania, where they continue the social justice work of the Panthers through community and agricultural programs and host study-abroad programs for American students. Paul Magnarella—a veteran of the United Nations Criminal Tribunals and O'Neal's attorney during his appeals process from 1997–2001—describes his unsuccessful attempts to overturn what he argues was a wrongful conviction. He lucidly reviews the evidence of judicial errors, the prosecution's use of a paid informant as a witness, perjury by both the prosecution's key witness and a federal agent, as well as other constitutional violations. He demonstrates how O'Neal was denied justice during the height of the COINTELPRO assault on black activists in the U.S.

Sam Gordon is a bit of a football celebrity, which is odd, since she's a sixth-grade girl. But after her father posted YouTube videos showing her dominating her male teammates in youth football games -- the pinnacle coming when one of the videos earned 5 million hits in one day -- Gordon drew the attention of big-time NFL names. She met Roger Goodell and was invited to attend Super Bowl XLVII.
She maintained her presence as a YouTube sensation and later starred in an NFL Play 60 campaign. This past winter, she got the change to meet Aaron Rodgers. But her latest achievement might be the most impressive: The young girl has helped launched the country's first tackle football league for girls.
The Utah Girls Tackle Football League is the first of its kind, and it's drawn enough participation that the league has fielded multiple teams. Gordon is one of its players and one of its advocates, too. This week marked the first day of practice for the teams, which will play their first games this weekend.
Practice for the first ever all girls tackle football league! We get our pads today- let the hitting begin!
According to USA Today's FTW, Gordon helped spark the league to life when she asked an assembly at her school how many of the girls would like to play tackle football. Almost all of the girls raised their hand.
"It just made me think, if there's this many girls in just this one school that want to play football, imagine how many girls out there want to play football," Gordon told FTW.
She went home and told her father, Brent Gordon, who in turn connected with Crystal Sacco, a former offensive lineman for Utah's semi-pro women's football team. The idea continued to gain steam, and 50 young girls were ultimately recruited to the league.
This year, the league plans to feature four teams that will play a three-game season. But there's hope that the league will expand next season, adding more teams and a longer schedule.
Gordon says that so far, the experience of playing with girls is mostly the same as playing with boys -- except for one difference.
"The boys, I feel like it's super strict," she says. "But with the girls, we're all just so excited to be here and it's so fun."

新研究首次揭示英国国家范围内对COVID-19相关小儿多系统炎症综合征的深入见解
A UK study into critically ill children admitted to paediatric intensive care units with symptoms of a rare, new inflammatory syndrome, has combined data from units across the country to offer the first nationwide insights into the true extent of the condition.
Reports have emerged in recent weeks, during the COVID-19 pandemic, of children presenting with symptoms of a new condition similar to those seen in Kawasaki disease and Toxic Shock Syndrome. The new condition has been termed Paediatric Inflammatory Multi-System Syndrome - Temporally associated with SARS-CoV-2 (PIMS-TS), and affects older children. There have been reports of cases in the UK, across Europe, and the United States.
This latest study brings together data on 78 children, admitted to 15 intensive care units over a six week period between April and May 2020. Some of these cases have been previously reported in smaller studies, but this study brings together the largest number of cases in a cohort of children with this condition needing life support. Comparison with historical data shows an average of 11 fold increase (peaking at 26-fold) in intensive care admissions compared to similar inflammatory conditions.
As well as a fever, which was present in all cases, children presented with a variety of other symptoms, including shock, vomiting and abdominal pain. Data also showed that 78% of admissions were Black, Asian, or Minority Ethnic children. Encouragingly, the majority of children were discharged from hospital/PICU within one week, however two children sadly died.
Most of the children did not have active evidence of COVID-19 infection, but did have antibodies to COVID-19, meaning they had been infected in the recent past. The study has demonstrated that high quality intensive care support is essential for children who are seriously affected. Rapid national collaborations such as this are the key to unlocking knowledge that improves current treatment and aids the ongoing search for drugs to prevent or treat this condition.
Dr Patrick Davies, lead researcher and Consultant Paediatric Intensivist at the Nottingham Children's Hospital said: "The vast majority of the critically ill children we describe had a short stay in PICU and were thankfully discharged. Although it can cause significant illness, this condition appears to be rare. The key to successful treatment is close collaboration between many specialties".
Dr Barney Scholefield, senior author, Paediatric intensive care consultant at Birmingham Women's and Children's NHS Foundation Trust and researcher at the University of Birmingham said: "A large group of children's intensive care clinicians from across the NHS have rapidly worked together to help understand this condition. The successful collaboration has resulted in a wealth of information to help treat cases currently and in any future waves of COVID-19."
Dr Padmanabhan Ramnarayan, senior author and Consultant in Paediatric Intensive Care Retrieval at Great Ormond Street Hospital said: "This is a new condition and, in just a matter of weeks, clinicians across the world have already made tremendous progress in understanding it. However, many aspects of the condition remain unclear, such as why it only affects some children or what the long-term implications of having this condition are. One of our findings is that complications such as coronary aneurysms do occur in a small minority of patients. This clearly highlights the importance of following up on these patients – and this will be high on the agenda for clinical teams at GOSH and elsewhere."
Other GOSH contributors towards the co-authoring of this paper include Mae Johnson, Pascale du Pre and Joe Brierley.

Meet Ochai Agbaji of Nigerian Heritage Picked in the 2022 NBA Draft to Join the Cleveland Cavaliers
ebubejulius June 29, 2022
Ochai Young Agbaji, who was selected with the 14th overall choice in the 2022 NBA Draft, is an American professional basketball player for the Cleveland Cavaliers of the National Basketball Association (NBA). He was born on April 20, 2000.
Agbaji,is a native of Kansas City, Missouri, initially intended to play soccer in college. Throughout his first three years of high school, he was not a highly-touted recruit.
At the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, both of Agbaji's parents were basketball players, but mid-major colleges weren't interested in signing him until his senior year of high school when he averaged 27.6 points and 8.6 rebounds for Oak Park after experiencing a growth spurt that made him 6-5.
When a Kansas assistant coach learned about Agbaji, the three-star prospect made the decision to enrol at Jayhawk. Agbaji attended Kansas, where he made consistent progress each year. He declared for the 2021 NBA Draft, went to the combine, got feedback about his draft position, took it to heart, and came back to Kansas for his senior year.
High hopes were held for Agabji upon his return. He outperformed them all, winning Big 12 Player of the Year accolades, being selected to the First Team All-American by the majority of voters, and guiding the Jayhawks to their first NCAA title since 2008. He finished off his unlikely comeback by winning Most Outstanding Player at the NCAA Final Four.

NBA 2022 Draft
In Brooklyn, New York, at Barclays Center, the National Basketball Association (NBA) held its annual Draft 2022. The 76th edition of the annual draft, which had 58 selections, was held this year.
Ochai Agbaji, who is of Nigerian heritage, was selected with the No. 14 overall choice in this year's annual draft after guiding Kansas to their first NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament since 2008.
I just want to thank the organisation and Cleveland for drafting me, believing in me," Agbaji said. "I'm going to give you 110 percent every single day and a positive attitude. I'm going to be a hard worker. Come in, be humble and represent my city well."
The Cleveland Cavaliers selected the 22-year-old Nigerian-born player, joining another emerging star of Nigerian descent, Isaac Okoro, on the squad who was chosen in the 2020 NBA draft.
"The shooting piece was important," president of basketball operations Koby Altman said. "The fact he can play wing, the fact he can guard wing is great. I don't know if that went into it so much as the need for shooting."
"I don't want to put him on a pedestal and say, 'This is the next great wing that we draft.' But maybe it is. I do know that he fits a need right away and he's going to compete and he has that winning pedigree that we really like," he added.
Other Africans chosen in the NBA 2022 draft include Christian Koloko of Cameroon at number 33, Khalifa Diop of Senegal at number 39, and Yannick Nzosa of the DR Congo at number 54.

Most system operate in a way that it relies on a considerable fact, wherein most of the racing days at least 1 favorite will win one of the races. In a day, you can find at least three (3) race meetings in just about every day 6 of 7 races in a meeting. Thus, this usually means that in other regions of a country there are excess of 20 races.
Therefore, if 1 favorite wins out from the 20 races, you'll be able to already consider yourself a winner, right? It is possible to picture the probability that there's always a single favorite winning out from the 20 races. However, this is certainly small.
A horse racing selection system can be utilized in order to know which horses have high odds of winning regarding the most frequent kinds of horse race bets. You can utilize these systems in making straight bet, place bet, combination bet, show bet, pick 6 bet, reverse forecast, tricast, superfecta, daily double and much more.

Q: How to store Value of NSDictionary to NSMutableArray in loop? I am fetching data from database and i will get same data which is last in database. how to store a dictionary value in nsmutable array.
Here is my code !!
  - (NSDictionary *) getPreparedAllRow
 {

NSMutableDictionary *dRow=[[NSMutableDictionary alloc]init];
NSMutableArray *data=[[NSMutableArray alloc]init];

int counter=0;
while(sqlite3_step(statment) == SQLITE_ROW)
{
    int Column_Count = sqlite3_column_count(statment);
    if(Column_Count >= 1)
    {

        for(int count =0 ; count < Column_Count ; count++)
        {
            [dRow setObject:[self columnValue:count] forKey:@(sqlite3_column_name(statment, count))];
            //dRow [ @(sqlite3_column_name(statment, count))] = [self columnValue:count];
        }
    }
    NSLog(@"%@",dRow);
    [data insertObject:dRow atIndex:counter];
    counter++;
    NSLog(@"%@",data);
}
NSLog(@"%@",data);
return dRow;
 }

when count all data records 9 counter variable. and all data are overwrite with the last data.
here is my log.
 (
    {
     "Id" = 1;
    "Name" = Priyank;
},
    {
     "Id" = 1;
    "Name" = Priyank;
},
    {
     "Id" = 1;
    "Name" = Priyank;
},
    {
     "Id" = 1;
    "Name" = Priyank;
},
    {
     "Id" = 1;
    "Name" = Priyank;
},
    {
     "Id" = 1;
    "Name" = Priyank;
},
    {
     "Id" = 1;
    "Name" = Priyank;
},
    {
     "Id" = 1;
    "Name" = Priyank;
},
    {
    "Id" = 1;
    "Name" = Priyank;
}

)

A: Actually Return Type should be array and there is no need of counter variable, Try this:
- (NSArray *)getPreparedAllRow
 {

NSMutableArray *data=[[NSMutableArray alloc]init];

while(sqlite3_step(statment) == SQLITE_ROW)
{
    NSMutableDictionary *dRow=[[NSMutableDictionary alloc]init];
    int Column_Count = sqlite3_column_count(statment);
    if(Column_Count >= 1)
    {

        for(int count =0 ; count < Column_Count ; count++)
        {
            [dRow setObject:[self columnValue:count] forKey:@(sqlite3_column_name(statment, count))];
            //dRow [ @(sqlite3_column_name(statment, count))] = [self columnValue:count];
        }
    }
    NSLog(@"%@",dRow);
    [data addObject:dRow];
    NSLog(@"%@",data);
}
NSLog(@"%@",data);
return data;
 }

A: You need to create a new NSMutableDictionary *dRow on every iteration:
- (NSDictionary *) getPreparedAllRow
 {

//NSMutableDictionary *dRow=[[NSMutableDictionary alloc]init];
NSMutableArray *data=[[NSMutableArray alloc]init];

int counter=0;
while(sqlite3_step(statment) == SQLITE_ROW)
{
    int Column_Count = sqlite3_column_count(statment);

    NSMutableDictionary *dRow=[[NSMutableDictionary alloc]init];

    if(Column_Count >= 1)
    {

        for(int count =0 ; count < Column_Count ; count++)
        {
            [dRow setObject:[self columnValue:count] forKey:@(sqlite3_column_name(statment, count))];
            //dRow [ @(sqlite3_column_name(statment, count))] = [self columnValue:count];
        }
    }
    NSLog(@"%@",dRow);
    [data insertObject:dRow atIndex:counter];
    counter++;
    NSLog(@"%@",data);
}
NSLog(@"%@",data);
return dRow;
 }

And I think that you want to return the NSMutableArray*??  maybe you have an error there too...

A: If you have a NSDictionary with some values stored in it, the try using this statement. This will automatically take particular key values into that array.
arrayName = [dictionaryName valueForKey:@"keyName"];

Or you can try this,
[arrayName addObject:[dictionaryName objectForKey:@"keyName"];

A: First up all create one NSObject class called as
/** #import "StudentDTO.h" ****/
 @interface StudentDTO : NSObject
    {
        int ID;
        NSString *stu_name;
    }
    @property (nonatomic, readwrite) int ID;
    @property (nonatomic, retain) NSString *stu_name;

@end

/** #import "StudentDTO.m" ****/
@implementation StudentDTO

@synthesize ID,stu_name;

@end

////Now in your code Import #import "StudentDTO.h"
-(NSDictionary *) getPreparedAllRow

 {

NSMutableDictionary *dRow=[[NSMutableDictionary alloc]init];
NSMutableArray *data=[[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
int counter=0;
while(sqlite3_step(statment) == SQLITE_ROW)
{
   int Column_Count = sqlite3_column_count(statment);
    if(Column_Count >= 1)
    {

        for(int count =0 ; count < Column_Count ; count++)
        {
            [dRow setObject:[self columnValue:count] forKey:@(sqlite3_column_name(statment, count))];
            //dRow [ @(sqlite3_column_name(statment, count))] = [self columnValue:count];
        }
    }
    NSLog(@"%@",dRow);
    StudentDTO *studto=[[StudentDTO alloc]init];
    studto.ID=[dRow objectforkey:@"Id"];
    studto.stu_name=[dRow objectforkey:@"Name"];[data addobject:studto];
    counter++;
    NSLog(@"%@",data);}NSLog(@"%@",data);return dRow;

 }


Vomiting is never fun: not only is it a symptom of something wrong within your body, but it looks and smells horrible. Furthermore, the stains it produces are very hard to clean, which is why it's particularly painful if it reaches your carpeted floors. For a few tips on how to get rid of it, continue reading.
The way vomit smells, how it looks, and the sensation it gives you, is unpleasant to say the very least. However, one way you can make this cleaning job easier is to get ready for it. To that end, wear gloves and even a face mask that can create a barrier between you and the substance. Additionally, you should wear old clothing that you don't mind getting dirty. Finally, we suggest that you have all of your cleaning supplies handy: for this project, you'll need paper towels, a spoon, trash bags, water, a spray bottle, vinegar, dishwashing soap, pieces of cloth, baking soda, and a vacuum.
Now this will probably be the most challenging step of all, but you need to push through it if you want to have clean carpets again: you need to remove the excess vomit from the floor. To do so, be sure that you have your protective gear on. After that, take the spoon and carefully start collecting some of the vomit and placing it in a plastic bag. Continue with this step with great care, because if you don't, you could make the affected area bigger. Once you've removed most of the excess vomit, grab a paper towel and start padding the carpet (don't press too hard as you could cause the matter to reach the inner padding of your carpet) to absorb what's left of it.
Before you start working on lifting the stain, you need to create a mixture of vinegar, warm water, and dishwashing soap in the spray bottle. Then, spray this cleaning mixture onto the stained area (don't be too eager or you may end up soaking your carpet) and let it work for a while so it can be as effective as possible. After you've let a few minutes go by, take a piece of cloth and start blotting the stain off. Keep in mind that it's highly likely that you will have to repeat this process a few times over to erase the stain from the carpet. If after a while, the stain is not noticeable anymore, grab another dry piece of cloth and absorb the excess moisture to prevent a mold problem from developing. If you don't see that the stain is going away, even after a few tries, you'll need to bring out the big guns: Cleanpro in Aurora. They are an experienced and reliable team that will make your carpeting good as new with their revolutionary cleaning method. Call 303.903.1261 for carpet cleaning in Aurora.
Once you have finished cleaning up the stain, you'll probably notice that the carpeted floors are still a bit moist from all of the liquids you used to clean them. In order to keep that humidity from stinking up your whole house, try sprinkling a generous amount of baking soda all over the floor. Then, allow the baking soda to work on absorbing the moisture for around 15 minutes. When enough time has passed, vacuum it and the disgusting smells away!
The last step in this tutorial will help you ensure that mold doesn't start developing in your home after you've cleaned your carpeting. For that reason, it's very important that you dry your floors inside out. To that end, first try to expose the padding in your carpeting, so it can get some fresh air that will help it dry. Likewise, you should also stay away from the moist area, so that you don't step on it and slow down the process. Finally, you can help your carpet dry by opening the windows and doors, and ventilating the room with fans.
Trust that Cleanpro in Aurora can deliver the best results and leave your carpeting good as new. Call 303.903.1261 if you'd like more information about their revolutionary cleaning method, or if you're in need of professional carpet cleaning in Aurora.

As men age, they often develop an enlarged prostate. When the prostate becomes enlarged, it is known as a condition called benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH. The prostate is a walnut-sized gland that surrounds the urethra, which is responsible for carrying urine from the bladder out of the body. As the prostate gets bigger, or enlarges, it can block the urethra which often leads to problems with urination. The added pressure on the urethra as a result of an enlarged prostate can make it more difficult to urinate.
BPH is a growth of the cells within the prostate gland – but it is not cancer. It is also not a sign of cancer and does not lead to cancer. However, it is possible to have BPH and prostate cancer at the same time. By age 60, more than half of men have BPH. By age 85, about 90 percent of men have BPH, but only about 30 percent will have symptoms. It is unclear as to what the cause of BPH is exactly. It is believed that the condition is a normal part of the aging process and is likely caused by changes in hormone balance and in cell growth. Other risk factors that increase a man's risk for BPH include a family history of the condition, having diabetes and heart disease, obesity, physical inactivity, and being Caucasian or African-American.
• Feeling that you have not completely emptied your bladder after you urinate.
How is BPH diagnosed? BPH is diagnosed by a urologist who will evaluate your symptoms and do a series of tests including a digital rectal exam, a prostate-specific antigen blood test, and a urine test. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, the type of treatment you receive depends on the severity of the condition. The most optimal treatment option depends on the size of the prostate, age, overall health, and the severity of the symptoms.
Two of the most common and effective treatment options available for BPH include a Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP) and Greenlight Laser PVP. A TURP is an invasive surgical procedure that removes excess growth around the prostate gland. It is performed by a urologist in a hospital under general anesthesia or spinal anesthesia coupled with a sedative. A resectoscope (an instrument much like a cystoscope with the advantages of a microscope, light, irrigation capability, and a wire loop) or a spring-action cutting tool, is inserted into the urethra to access the enlarged prostate gland. The electricity generated through the cutting tool removes small pieces of tissue until the urethra is no longer restricted. To control bleeding, the vessels are cauterized by the wire loop and the bladder and urethra are irrigated with a saline solution. A urinary catheter is put in for the purpose of resting the bladder and prostate, keeping the urethra open if swelling develops, and to empty the bladder of blood to avoid clotting. The procedure takes about 90 minutes to two hours.
TURP has several advantages over the newer technologies. For men with other health problems that make the newer procedures inadvisable, TURP is the best option for treatment of BPH. If the prostate has grown too large, newer procedures they may not be effective, and some may feel more comfortable with surgery than an unfamiliar technology.
• Traditionally taught in medical schools so doctors have extensive experience.
A new and promising laser procedure, GreenLight Laser PVP (photoselective vaporization of the prostates) has been demonstrated to remove prostate gland overgrowths using pulses of light with nearly no bleeding, less catheterization, and a greatly reduced recovery time. The procedure uses the technology of high-powered laser light combined with fiber optics to vaporize the overgrowth of prostate cells quickly and accurately. As the surgeon directs the laser at the prostate, the intense pulses of light emitted from the fiber are absorbed by the blood. Within moments, the temperature of the blood becomes so great it causes the nearby cells to vaporize. GreenLight is being used as an alternative to a TURP and has been shown to be its equal in terms of effectiveness in improvement of symptoms. There is growing interest in this technique by patients and practitioners because of its simplicity and efficiency. GreenLight stands alone in its ability to give patients quick symptom relief, ease and comfort of urinary flow, and minimal short-term side effects. This technique is too new for long-term studies to have been completed, but after five years it has been shown to maintain its level of improvement in urinary flow and comfort, and for giving men the quality of life they deserve.

SMU professor bags prize for 'improbable research'

As Nobel fever hits its peak this week, an assistant professor from the Singapore Management University (SMU) has won an Ig Nobel Prize, becoming the only researcher from Singapore on this year's list of 10 winners.
The Ig Nobel Prize is a parody of the Nobel Prize awards and is given out every year at Harvard University in the United States. It recognises "improbable research... that makes people laugh, and then think".
Assistant Professor of Finance Gennaro Bernile, from the SMU Lee Kong Chian School of Business, is the third winner from Singapore in the prize's 24-year history.
WHY RISK-TAKING IS VANISHING
His findings...could shed light on why Singaporeans might be less risk-taking across generations because the imprinting effect of individual hardship when young has now changed.
SMU DEAN OF THE LEE KONG CHIAN SCHOOL OF BUSINESS GERRY GEORGE, on Assistant Professor Gennaro Bernile's Ig Nobel Prize-winning research
Prof Bernile, who received the award last month, clinched the prize in the management category for his research on the influence of early-life disasters on the behaviour of chief executive officers.
He had found that many business leaders who experienced natural disasters, such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis or wildfires, developed a fondness for risk-taking in their childhood, provided the disasters had no dire personal consequences for them.
"While the Ig Nobel Prize is known for appealing to the masses by focusing on the outrageous and humorous at the onset, which may be embarrassing at first, the scientific value of the seemingly funny or out-of-the-ordinary research sinks in soon after," Prof Bernile said.
"It is certainly a distinguished honour... to have won the Prize that lived up to its vision of helping more people notice remarkable research in the first place, spurring them to think and understand more about the benefits and applications, and encouraging more creativity and inquisition, after some good laughs."
Other winners this year include Dr Mark Dingemanse, a research staff member from the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics in the Netherlands, who shared the prize in the literature category with two of his colleagues.
They discovered that the word "huh" and its equivalent seem to exist in every human language, although they are not quite sure why.
On Prof Bernile's achievement, SMU dean of the Lee Kong Chian School of Business Gerry George said he was delighted that Prof Bernile had won the prize for "research that is not only revealing, but also relevant to business".
Dr George, who is also Professor of Innovation and Entrepreneurship, added: "His findings...could shed light on why Singaporeans might be less risk-taking across generations because the imprinting effect of individual hardship when young has now changed.
"Successive generational wealth and comfort removed the need to be risk-taking and entrepreneurial."

Important Note for iOS 7 Users Ahead of iOS 8 Release
All, Firmware, Other, Software
On Wednesday, September 17th Apple is expected to release iOS 8. This means that there only several hours left for those who need to restore their jailbroken iPhones to iOS 7.1.2 without losing jailbreak. After iOS 8 is released, the guys from Cupertino will no longer be signing iOS 7.1.2. In this case, if a user tries to restore the device using iTunes, he will be forced to update to iOS 8.
Another important announcement is also targeted at the jailbroken iPhone users. If you want to save your jailbreak, do not update to iOS 8 as currently there's no evidence that it is jailbreakable. Moreover, as it was mentioned above, you won't be able to restore or downgrade your smartphone to the earlier version of iOS. If your device works fine, keep using iOS 7.
Those who have an iPhone running iOS 7.1.2 or lower can use two utilities for jailbreak, namely, Pangu or evasi0n. Whether these tools will be compatible with iOS 8 is still a question without an answer. Stay tuned for more news about iOS 8 and jailbreak.

Evasi0n and Pangu Jailbreak Utilities Are Nominated for 2014 Pwnie Awards
All, Official, Other, Unlock & Jailbreak
According to the latest rumors, both Evasi0n and Pangu jailbreak utilities have been recently nominated for 2014 Pwnie Awards. This award is presented to those developers and security researchers, who find bugs or important exploits in the software. This year's award will be given to a developer (or the developers) that made some important discoveries in the period of the past twelve months.
Both the Evasi0n and Pangu jailbreaks for iOS 7 have been nominated for 2014 Pwnie awards. The Pwnie Awards celebrate the achievements of security researchers and developers who find certain bugs and exploits. The awards cover bugs disclosed over the last year (July 2013 – June 2014).
Last year the Pwnie Award was given to a developer nicknamed Planetbeing. It is very difficult to predict whom judges will choose this year as both Evasi0n and Pangu tools for jailbreak are worth winning the award.
If to speak about me, I would probably choose Evasi0n as the people behind this product were using their own exploits and methods for jailbreaking iOS 7, unlike the authors of Pangu.

I0n1c Has Explained How His iOS 7.1.1 Jailbreak Works
All, Cydia, Other, Unlock & Jailbreak
Stefan Esser (aka i0n1c), a hacker behind iOS 7.1.1 jailbreak, has explained how he managed to hack his iPhone.
According to what i0n1c writes, his jailbreak uses a new kernel bug. This vulnerability differs from those that were used previously.
Here's what he points out in his blog (via iClarified):
This means that the exploit code can be used to break out of any application that you exploit. This is very different from nearly all of the kernel vulnerabilities used in iOS jailbreaks since iOS 4.
In case you don't know, i0n1c on Sunday shared a photo of a jailbroken iPhone 5c with iOS 7.1.1 on board running Cydia. Another hacker, Winocm, posted a video showing a jailbroken iPhone 4.
The jailbreak has not yet been released. I think we should wait for a while.

Winocm to Start Working at Apple Later This Year?
All, Official, Other
A well-known member of the jailbreak community nicknamed Winocm will soon start working at Apple. As he tweeted a couple of hours ago, he'll take up his new duties "later this year". As to his position at the company, it remains unknown.
According to iDownloadBlog,
Another famous hacker is joining the ranks at Apple. Following in the footsteps of jailbreak community members Comex, and Peter Hajas, jailbreak developer Winocm announced this afternoon on Twitter that he would be joining Apple.
Winocm played an important role in development of a series of jailbreak versions. Apart from that, he took part in other important projects.
I hope that the company from Cupertino will include lots of tweaks created by third-party developers and hackers to iOS and Apple's mobile operating system will become even better. Agree? Leave your answers below.

Capture Slow-Motion Videos Using Slo-mo Mod – New Cydia Tweak
All, Cydia, Firmware, Other, Software
A new tweak has recently appeared on Cydia that lets you use your iPhone 5 or iPod touch to capture slow motion videos, even though these devices are believed to not support a slow motion mode. The tweak is called Slo-mo Mod and it is available for free on BigBoss repo.
As noted by iDownloadBlog,
One of the iPhone 5s' flagship features, the Camera app's baked-in slow motion mode, is now available to owners of older devices like the iPhone 5, and the iPod touch 5th generation. Slo-mo Mod is the jailbreak tweak that makes it so that slow motion mode is no longer an iPhone 5s exclusive.
The tweak can be customized and configured via Settings app. That means you can either turn Slo-mo Mod on or off or try to change some parameters to make the tweak work more efficient.
So, if you want to capture slow motion videos using your iPhone 5, iPhone 4s or iPod touch, Slo-mo Mod is definitely a worth downloading tweak.

ClassicSwitcher – New Tweak for Those Who Miss iOS 6
All, Cydia, Firmware, Other, Software, Video
Many people don't like iOS 7 and this has been proven by thousands or even millions of users who complain and ask Apple to bring back the old school design. Quite obvious, nobody will do that, so the only way to make your iOS 7 device look more like the iOS 6 gadget is to jailbreak it and use various Cydia tweaks to adjust the look of the operating system.
One of such tweaks is ClassicSwitcher -- a tool developed to bring the old school app switcher to iPhones and, what is very important, to iPads running iOS 7. This tweak hasn't yet been released, but soon it will be available in Cydia.
Not only does it bring the old school switcher functionality to iOS 7, but it brings along with it several goodies as well.
And here's the short video, which gives us a sneak peek at ClassicSwitcher, take a look:

White House Plans to Ban Phone Unlocking While Claiming to Support It
All, Other
According to secret documents leaked by WikiLeaks not long ago, the White House has been in talks with other countries to make phone unlocking illegal by international law. And it is rather strange since in public the US government supports those who struggle for the legalization of unlocking.
As stated in the original report (via Slate):
Last week, WikiLeaks made public a portion of a treaty that the White House has been secretly negotiating with other nations and 600 special interest lobbyists. The draft of the Trans-Pacific Partnership Treaty, which is on intellectual property, shows that HealthCare.gov isn't the only tech topic on which the Obama administration has some serious explaining to do.
What's even worse, is that the new treaty will also make jailbreaking, which is installing a different operating system on your smartphone, tablet, or e-reader, illegal, too.
This treaty is still being negotiated, so all of these issues could be addressed in the final text, but so far what has been made public demonstrates a massive and nearly unprecedented power grab by special interests rather than sound public policy considerations.
Let's hope for the best and wait to see what happens.

Dropbox And Facebook iOS Apps Are Vulnerable To Credential Theft
This week Gareth Wright reported that Facebook's app for iOS has a security vulnerability through which malicious users can access login credentials saved in a .plist file of the app. With a copy of that .plist file malicious users could automatically log into the affected user's Facebook account on another device. Reportedly, the vulnerability also exists on Android devices.
Wright describes several different ways in which your login credentials could be obtained by a malicious user, including hidden applications installed on shared PCs, customized apps, or modified speaker dock that could copy your plist.
According to Facebook, the issue only affects jailbroken or lost devices, as it requires physical access or installation of a custom app on the device. But Wright and The Next Web pointed out that simply plugging into any device would be sufficient for malicious users to gather these files.
The Next Web has confirmed that Dropbox for iOS is also vulnerable to this issue. Given that two such high-profile apps as Facebook and Dropbox are vulnerable to credential theft, it is likely that other apps are also affected by the issue.
As many reports note, this method of gathering login credentials is not actively utilized in a malicious manner, and users can protect their data for the time being by not plugging their devices into shared computers and charging stations.

Vooma Announced New Case With Unlocked SIM Slot
Vooma announced a new case for iPhone that includes a backup battery and a slot for SIM-card. The case can work with the app on jailbroken iPhone that emulates the native phone app to make calls via the external SIM card.
John Biggs from TechCrunch tried a pre-release case and noted that all the main functionality remains the same in the Vooma app, but its look and feel is somewhat different. For example, its dialer is a bitmapped copy of the native dialer screen and number and letters look slightly warped.
There are no much details, however it appears that the case works with mini-SIM cards, instead of micro-SIM cards used in the iPhone 4S and iPhone 4. In addition, external SIM card can be used only for voice calls and data is likely to go through the SIM installed in the iPhone. Since the external SIM card works with its own app the iPhone's SIM card can still be used for making voice calls even when the case is installed.
This case would be helpful for international travelers wanting to use a prepaid SIM from a local mobile carrier, without need to unlock their subsidized smartphone. To unlock an iPhone is usually more difficult than to simply jailbreak it. Vooma's homopage offers a sign-up form to receive more information on its Peel PG920 case, but the company has yet provided no details on its availability or pricing.

Jailbreaking iPhones Made This Student $50,000
Financial, Official, Other
It seems that jailbreaking of iOS devices become a really profitable business, at least for Kevin Lee, a George Mason University senior, who managed to earn $50,000 a year by jailbreaking and unlocking iPhones. At first, it was a hobby for him that eventually grew into a real business with 30-40 clients per week asking for jailbreak, Cydia installations, graphical customizations and "unlocks" to use the iPhone on wireless carriers otherwise unsupported by Apple. To achieve success, Kevin posted posting a "Get Your iPhone Jailbroken Today" ad on the popular online community. That helped him to get hundreds of requests. But his business goes against Apple's rules and as far as we know, at that moment his ad was already removed from the site.

Paul Bettany Wraps on Avengers 4, Teases Han Solo Movie
Spencer PerryThursday, December 21, 2017
UPDATE: Elizabeth Olsen has also wrapped filming the role of Scarlet Witch in the Avengers movies. You can view her video below!
As production continues on the highly-anticipated fourth Avengers film, actor Paul Bettany has revealed that he has officially wrapped on the project. Production on the film was originally scheduled to wrap up by the end of the year, but casting calls for the film now reveal that it will be filming well into January of 2018. Bettany marked the occasion with a video on Instagram.
That's a Wrap on me- The Vision. I'll be seeing you all in May. X
A post shared by Paul Bettany (@paulbettany) on Dec 20, 2017 at 8:20pm PST
9 months later… This Witch is out! #infinitywar #avengers #scarletwitch #wrapped #bts
A post shared by Elizabeth Olsen (@elizabetholsenofficial) on Dec 21, 2017 at 7:56am PST
In further Paul Bettany news, the actor spoke with Total Film about working on the upcoming Solo: A Star Wars Story, describing the film as follows:
"It's Han Solo's story, and of course his story would be a caper. On one level it's a gangster movie. That's really interesting, because it's within the canon but really different. It's f***ing Han Solo!"
Bettany was brought on to the film when director Ron Howard was hired to replace directing team Phil Lord and Chris Miller. Bettany replaced Michael Kenneth Williams of The Wire fame who was unable to make time for the reshoots due to his already busy schedule. He also spoke about Howard's work on the film, revealing that he reshot more of the movie than was originally planned.
"His staging ability is so f***ing brilliant. I think he went in and he was like a laser, working out what needed to be done when he looked at the footage. And then, as things moved on, everybody felt so secure with him. And they gave him more. He reshot a lot more than was originally intended."
Bettany goes on to describe his character as "an intergalactic gangster," but we likely won't know more about him or Solo: A Star Wars Story until the new year. The spin-off movie is set to debut May 25, 2018, just three weeks after the release of Avengers: Infinity War.

It's been a more than a year since I last had to install Fedora from scratch. I'm installing Fedora 14 into Virtualbox for an upcoming blog post where I wanted to do some stuff I wasn't quite sure I was ready to do on my main box, so I thought I'd go ahead and blog about the installation. The default artwork is very dynamic and conveys a sense that this is an exciting release.
The main Gnome desktop hasn't changed much. I notice that there isn't a "minimize all Windows button in the lower left. I think it's odd that OpenOffice.org wasn't included. I would have added a checkbox in the installation offering to automatically download OpenOffice.org or Abiword upon installation.
I like that you can click on your name and then system preferences and get at a control panel. Very nice.
If that exists with Fedora 13, I don't have it – maybe because I did an upgrade rather than an install from scratch.
On the one hand, this is great for enterprise users that will be installing Fedora. In fact, it was probably placed in here as part of Red Hat's Enterprise 6 offering. I like that it tells people they probably want the top one…but I think it's more confusing than it needs to be. Perhaps having it hidden with a check box that says "Enterprise users" which will bring up the second option. Just not quite as user-friendly as most distros I install. Heck, even less user friendly than I remember Fedora back in Fedora 10. It's mostly a niggle and maybe it just has to do with the target audience so take this complaint with a grain of salt. I had the following "scary" message, but I'm pretty sure it's because I was installing into Virtualbox and that's NOT something the typical user will do.
I selected the last option. Then came the hostname section. I like that "configure network" is a button for those who need it, but this page looks so bare!
Next was the timezone setup with a neat, clickable GUI.
I like the partition section because it was pretty easy to see what you were going to end up doing. It isn't as pretty as the Ubuntu one with the graphs, but I think this is an equally easy left-brained way to do it.
Then came the actual installation.
and I was ready for my new system!
So I shut the system off and detached the ISO. I booted up and got a welcome screen.
Fedora14 - Post-Install - Welcome!
After that was date/time setting and Smolt. I'm not going to take a look at Fedora 14, that'll come when I upgrade my main system. This installation was, as I mentioned at the top, in preparation for another blog post. You'll get to hear about that when I get to it. Overall, I think the installation process is very good although it is definitely a bit more technical than other installers I've looked at in the past. Is that the direction we're going with Fedora? It's OK if the answer is yes – that's why it rocks that there are so many Linux distros out there.


With hues of soft grays & whites filling up all of our homes, I have a feeling that we're going to see a strong comeback of deep dark colours in the next few years. I love the soft delicate spaces I see all over Pinterest and Instagram, but when I tried putting an off-white on my walls it felt completely blah in our space (read more about our living room paint colour here, and the completion of our living room here).
Basically, we went back to the drawing board and landed on a rich, mid-tone gray to give us the depth and warmth we didn't realize we were looking for.
The point is – I think this may happen for a lot of people as the white-on-white trends start to move out and we begin craving bolder more dramatic tones again. This doesn't mean the whole home needs repainting! White is and will always be a great backdrop for dark furniture, bright area rugs, and bold accents. These charcoals are some of my favourite to use as feature walls, interior (or exterior) doors, cabinetry, or powder rooms – and can be easily incorporated into your space if you're also craving some more warmth.

Q: Why is the length of the Kelvin unit of temperature equal to that of the Celsius unit? The Celsius unit is arbitrarily defined, based on the boiling and freezing point of water. Is it a coincidence, then, that the SI unit of temperature Kelvin, which is used in all natural equations, has the same length as the Celsius unit?

A: Kelvin history
The kelvin unit was designed so that a change of $1\ \text{K}$ corresponds to a change of $1\ ^\circ\text{C}$. This makes sense because people were working in Celsius at the time. Kelvin just realized that the Celsius scale couldn't go down arbitrarily negative. It stopped at $-273.15\ ^\circ\text{C}$.
The idea was to then make a new scale, the Kelvin scale which has the same gradations as the Celsius scale (for compatibility with the existing scale) but with the property that $0\ \text{K}$ corresponds to this special $-273.15\ ^\circ\text{C}$ temperature. In other words, it is not a coincidence but rather the kelvin was historically defined so that the two scales had the same gradation.
There is a bit of confusion regarding the triple point of water ($273.16\ \text{K}$, or $0.01\ ^\circ\text{C}$) and the freezing point of water at standard pressure ($273.15\ \text{K}$ or $0.00\ ^\circ\text{C}$). Let me clarify.
The Celsius, or Centigrade, scale was historically defined as follows.
$0\ ^\circ\text{C}$ was defined to be the temperature (measured by, for example, a mercury thermometer) at which water (at standard atmospheric pressure: $101\,325\ \text{Pa}$) freezes. $100\ ^\circ\text{C}$ was chosen to be the temperature (at standard pressure) at which water boiled. Thus one degree Celsius is a gradation of temperature (as measured by a mercury thermometer, for example) equivalent $\frac{1}{100}$ of the temperature difference between the freezing and boiling points of water at standard pressure.
As early as the $17^{\text{th}}$ century scientists began to understand that the Celsius scale didn't go infinitely negative. In fact, the value where the Celsius scale would stop could be calculated and measured and it was found to occur at around $-273\ ^\circ\text{C}$. It seems to me that further refinement of laboratory experiments found the temperature to be $-273.15\ ^\circ\text{C}$. That is if you started at the freezing point of water $(0\ ^\circ\text{C})$, and went down by $273.15$ of the gradations described above, you would hit absolute zero.
Ok, we still haven't rigorously defined the kelvin. In 1967 people wanted to give good definitions to the units. The freezing point of water was a bad physical reference point because it depended on the water being at atmospheric pressure. But pressure varies with the weather and elevation on Earth so different labs might calibrate their thermometers differently by this metric. However, the temperature of the triple point of water is unambiguous (at least regarding pressure) because it only occurs when the pressure is at the right value. The triple point of water occurs at $0.01\ ^\circ\text{C}$. Thus, in 1967 it was resolved to define the kelvin as $\frac{1}{273.16}$ of the temperature of the triple point of water. This sets 1) $0\ \text{K}$ to be absolute zero as desired, 2) ensures the gradations of Kelvin were referred to a decent physical reference quantity and 3) has the effect that gradations of the Kelvin scale are the exact same as gradations of the Celsius scale.
I will leave the answer here for now. See A Peruzzi 2018 J. Phys.: Conf. Ser. 1065 12011: On the redefinition of the kelvin for details on the redefinition of the kelvin which went into effect last month.

A: Kelvins aren't really all that natural either; or rather, they are just as arbitrary as Celsius. You need another arbitrary quantity--the Boltzmann constant--to get the temperature unit to work with the other physical units.

PHOTO OP with
VIVIENNE WESTWOOD, MARK THOMAS, KATE HOEY MP and MAGGI HAMBLING
Wednesday 5th March, 11am
22 Lillieshall Road, London SW4
On Wednesday 5th March Lambeth residents and campaigners, including designer and activist Vivienne Westwood, comedian and activist Mark Thomas, artist Maggi Hambling and Kate Hoey MP, will meet in Lillieshall Road, London SW4 to protest against Lambeth Council's sale of long-standing housing co-operatives.
All those gathered for this photo op have pledged to defend residents of these housing co-ops against evictions, and have stated:
We will stand with housing co-op residents when they refuse to leave their home, if Lambeth go through with their threat to send bailiffs to evict them.
What is happening in Lambeth?
Lambeth's so-called 'co-operative' council is evicting members of housing co-operatives who have lived in the borough for periods of up to 40 years, with some residents in their 70s who have lived in their homes since the 1970s. This community purge is also a triple whammy for housing with social housing stock sold off, more people added to the waiting list and no new housing built as a result.
Case study – Maritza Tschepp
Maritza Tschepp and her family have lived in their home for 33 years. Their house was among those compulsory purchased by Lambeth for demolition for a couple of thousand pounds in the 1970s and left to rot. The council allowed 'shortlife' co-ops to be set up, run by the people like Maritza who were occupying and maintaining the houses. But Lambeth are now destroying these co-ops and selling off the properties with no acknowledgement of the blood, sweat and tears of the 'short lifers', who saved these homes from dereliction.
Maritza has also invested in her community, setting up a local youth group and running it as an unpaid volunteer for over 20 years, but Lambeth has shown no concern about keeping people in homes and communities where they have lived and worked for so long.
At a time when waiting lists are at record levels it is a crime for Lambeth to sell social housing.
