Postural improvement and reduced pain using a ScoliBrace
Postural improvement, improved mobility and reduced pain in a female patient with de novo degenerative scoliosis using a ScoliBrace
This case demonstrates the successful management of a patient with de novo degenerative scoliosis. The patient presented with a long history of back and leg pain which were interfering with her activities of daily living. The patient had a 51° (Cobb) left lumbar scoliosis with laterolisthesis and marked degenerative change throughout the lumbar spine. There were alterations to the normal lordosis and kyphosis angles, as well as coronal and sagittal plane misalignment.
The patient was prescribed a rigid, low-profile ScoliBrace orthosis to be worn each day on a part-time basis. The patient has been wearing the brace during the day for the past 10 months. Clinical and radiological findings from the most recent follow-up appointment indicate that the patient's scoliosis has been stabilized and that the postural alignment has been improved. The patient reports that she now has less pain and has more mobility since wearing the brace.
The 56-year-old female patient was referred to the ScoliCare clinic by her general practitioner. The patient had been diagnosed with scoliosis, on top of several pre-existing comorbid illnesses, 18 months prior. The patient reported that she had been experiencing significant pain for the past 10 years.
The patient lived on an isolated property and reported that she was having increasing difficulty walking around on the steep terrain. The pain that she was experiencing was also disrupting her sleep. The patient was no longer working due to back pain and could only perform limited house work because of her condition. Standing or walking for any length of time would also cause the patient to experience severe pain. Financial and geographic constraints prohibited the patient from being able to receive regular care or attend therapeutic exercise/rehabilitation classes.
A detailed history and physical examination were performed. The pertinent findings from the history included a compression fracture at L3 two years prior which had prompted a bone mineral density assessment.
The patient had been classified as osteopenic based on findings from a DEXA scan. The patient had been diagnosed with chronic obstructive airway disease (COAD), asthma, Raynaud's disease, scleroderma and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), temporal lobe epilepsy and varicose veins in the pelvis. Significant degenerative change in the mid-lumbar spine had caused the patient several bouts of radiculopathy and lower limb neuropathy for which she had received previous facet injections and radio-ablation therapy. The patient denied any family history of scoliosis and was not aware of the presence of any spinal deformity when she was younger.
The patient had been fitted with a pacemaker at age 31. The referral letter sent by the patient's GP listed 21 different prescription medications. The patient stated that one or more of these medications was causing her to be chronically constipated for the past four years. The patient also reported that she was a smoker.
The physical examination revealed anterior sagittal balance and right coronal imbalance in the postural assessment. There was an increased waist curve on the right, decreased lumbar lordosis and evidence of spinal curvature in the lumbar spine (Figure 1).
Physical examination revealed a generalized decrease in the lumbar range of motion with left lumbar lateral flexion markedly reduced. The Adams forward bend test produced humping in the left paraspinal soft tissues. There was no evidence of pelvic, sacral, or lower limb deformity. The patient's neurological exam was unremarkable.
The patient had brought several forms of diagnostic imaging to the initial consultation. Plain films taken 10 months prior portrayed a 38° (Cobb) left lumbar scoliosis (Apex L2). Laterolisthesis was noted at L3/4 and significant spondylosis from L2-L5 (Figure 2).
The most recent films indicated that the patient's scoliosis had progressed, now measuring 51° (Cobb). Computed tomography confirmed the findings from the x-ray and highlighted vacuum phenomena at L2/3 and L4/5 intervertebral disc levels.
The patient was diagnosed with a de novo degenerative lumbar scoliosis.

The patient was prescribed a 3D customised, rigid, low-profile orthosis (ScoliBrace) designed to correct/stabilise the deformity in the lower spine. The brace was fitted three months after the initial consultation (Figure 3).
In-brace photos taken at the time of the brace fitting demonstrated a significant improvement in the patient's sagittal and coronal postural balance. In-brace x-rays taken soon after the brace fitting appointment indicated a reduction in the patient's scoliosis and an improvement in the sagittal balance (Figure 4). The patient was provided with instructions for donning and doffing and cleaning the orthosis. Brace wear was gradually increased by two hours each day up to the patient's tolerance.

Figure 4: Posteroanterior in-brace x-ray with a 42° left lumbar scoliosis (Left), Lateral in-brace x-ray highlighting an improvement sagittal balance (Right).
The patient attended a follow-up consultation one month after the brace fitting. The patient reported that overall the symptoms had been reduced by wearing the brace. The patient was reviewed again six months later. At this time, the patient stated that they were able to wear the brace for most of the day. The patient was still experiencing some pain but reported that their mobility was much improved in the orthosis.
The postural improvements displayed initially in-brace have been maintained (Figure 5) and the patient's lumbar scoliosis has remained stable at 50° (Figure 6).
The patient is still under care and has been advised to continue with bracing during the day. To counteract the deconditioning that has occurred over the past decade, the patient has been instructed to begin performing some light exercise whilst wearing the brace.
The patient will be reviewed again in six months, but it is likely that she will be required to continue the current dosage of bracing indefinitely to preserve her current mobility. It is hoped that the brace will limit the progression of the degenerative changes that are associated with her scoliosis.

The subject of this case study represents a typical de novo degenerative scoliosis presentation. The condition affects the thoracic and/or lumbar spine causing varying degrees of deformity, back pain, radicular leg pain and activity limitation.
The symptoms experienced by the patient in this case had led to a progressive decline in functional capacity, with the patient being unable to work, exercise, perform home duties, or ambulate around the grounds of her property. The radiological findings in patients with adult spinal deformity are particularly telling, with alterations in coronal and sagittal balance being commonplace. This abnormal placement of the body's centre of gravity leads to excessive energy expenditure when the patient stands or moves and is often associated with disabling pain.
Shifts in spinal alignment accelerate the degenerative process leading to postural collapse and eventual compromise of the neurovascular structures around the spine. Decreasing bone mineral density and the presence of comorbid illness in this population further complicates the situation. In fact, the health status of many patients in this group is such that surgery is no longer a viable treatment option. Instead, conservative treatment strategies such as bracing are used to improve spinal alignment and maintain quality of life.
The treatment outcomes in this case are fairly representative of the outcomes in the adult spinal deformity population. Postural alignment, in particular sagittal balance, has been improved by the brace, which has translated into better mobility and reduced pain in this patient. The scoliosis which had been progressing at a rapid rate prior to initiating treatment has also been stabilised as a result of the bracing regimens.
This case demonstrates the successful management of a 56-year-old female patient with de novo degenerative scoliosis using a low profile ScoliBrace orthosis. The patient demonstrated good compliance with the brace and has experienced improvements in posture, mobility and pain.

Q: python: why am I not exiting while loop? Can't find anything applicable to the problem I have here. If there is, please point me toward it.
Anyway, as a new one to python, I can't  understand why my output here keeps repeating indefinitely.
from random import randint
dollars = int(input("How many dollars do you have? "))

maxdollars = dollars
countatmax = 0
count = 0

while dollars > 0:
    count += 1
    diceone = randint(0, 6)
    dicetwo = randint(0, 6)
    if diceone + dicetwo == 7:
        dollars + 4
    else:
        dollars - 1
    if dollars != maxdollars:
        mostdollars = dollars
        countatmax = count
    print "You are broke after " + str(count) + " rolls.\n" + \
          "You should have quit after " + str(countatmax) + \
          " rolls when you had $" + str(maxdollars) + "."

A: Yes, like Karin said, you are not changing the value of dollars with these statements:
if diceone + dicetwo == 7:
    dollars + 4
else:
    dollars - 1

since the amount of "dollars" never gets changed, your while loop will loop forever (dollars will always be greater than zero) assuming that the user inputs a positive value

A: In your code,
while dollars > 0:
    count += 1
    diceone = randint(0, 6)
    dicetwo = randint(0, 6)
    if diceone + dicetwo == 7:
        dollars + 4
    else:
        dollars - 1
dollars + 4 is simply adding 4 to the dollar amount. So, if initial amount is $100 then  dollars + 4  will always equal $104. The same is true with  dollars - 1 . It will always equal $99 for this case.
To understand it a little better, try this: dollars = dollars + 4
This will take the previous dollars amount (say $104 now), add $4 to it, then store that amount back into itself with the updated amount now at $108.
Since the dollar amount never decreases, an infinite loop occurs.
A shortcut to this is dollars+=4 or dollars-=1

I had a great time watching "In Time", a sci fi movie about a world that uses time as currency. The movie's release is full of controversy, as famed science fiction writer Harlan Ellison tried to stop the film's release citing similarities to his short story "Repent, Harlequin!" Said The Ticktockman. Having now seen the movie and read the short story I don't feel the similarities were extensive, but more on that later.
The premise as seen in the trailer is pretty straightforward, and what an interesting premise this is. The movie replaces money with seconds, minutes, hours even months and years of people's lives as people trade off time on their life line for goods and services, working themselves to the bone to be able to make it another day. Extremely topical amongst these times of economic strife and worldwide protests, the movie vilifies the "rich" immortals while making us feel the plight of the working class. All this social commentary is wrapped in this interesting sci fi concept which makes for interesting scenes and concepts, like the idea that poor people from the ghetto are always in a rush, while the rich take their time in everything, because what is there to hurry about if you know you'll probably live another century or two?

Pogba Admits He's Still Unsure About Man Utd Future
By Balls Team Aug 11, 2019 10:15 PM
Paul Pogba has admitted he is still unsure about his future after appearing in Manchester United's crushing opening-day win against Chelsea.
The France midfielder was expected to leave Old Trafford for Real Madrid this summer, but the Spanish club do not appear to be prepared to accept United's asking price, reported to be £180million.
Pogba, who set up Marcus Rashford for his second goal against Chelsea with a brilliant long-range pass, told French radio station RMC Sport afterwards that there were still doubts over whether he will stay at United.
"I always feel good when I play football. I do the things I like, plus it's my job. I give my all every time I go out on the pitch," he said.
I'm aware that things have been said. Only time will tell. There's always that question mark.
I'm at Manchester. I have fun with my team-mates, I always want to win matches and I always give my best when I'm on the pitch.
The Spanish transfer window does not shut until September 2, but Real look set to sign Ajax midfielder Donny Van de Beek, who has reportedly claimed the two clubs are in talks over a transfer.
United made a winning start to the new Premier League season, beating Chelsea 4-0 thanks to two goals from Rashford – his first from the penalty spot – Anthony Martial and debutant Daniel James.

The founders of Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) John Grinder and Richard Bandler met with Dr Milton Erickson, who was widely recognized as the inventor of modern hypnosis, to see why and how he was so successful.
After analyzing Erickson's methods and approach, they came up with the Milton Model. It was a concept opposite to their original Meta model, but just as useful for personal change and communication.
How Does the Milton Model Work?
Pace and lead – Mirror and match the subject's behavior (body language, word choices, voice tone etc.), speaking in a soft tone and slow pace to match their breathing, make a reference to what the subject is likely to see, feel, hear and think (e.g. "as you're wondering" or "as you hear my voice"), then lead the subject into concentrating on their inner self (e.g. notice how easy it is to shut your eyes anytime you want to feel more relaxed).
1. Mind Read: Claiming to know what the subject feels or thinks without stating how you know.
2. Lost Performative: Stating value judgments without mentioning the person doing the judging.
"Are you going to change your behavior today or tomorrow?" Assuming the subject will change their behavior, not knowing when.
6. Universal Quantifier: Universal generalizations without references or allusions.
7. Modal Operator: Implying words that direct to the possibility, necessity or reflects strong beliefs in one's life.
8. Nominalization: Words which are created as nouns and are scripted for processes.
The word 'understandings' is used as a noun and is shorthand to explain the on-going experience of 'understanding' or 'to make sense of something'.
9. Unspecified Verb: Implying an action not mentioning how the action has or will take place.
10. Tag Question: An added question at the end of a statement or question that's made to reduce resistance. It's used to affirm to the subject that he has or will actually do the action. It has the structure of a question and usually the tone of a statement.
11. Lack of Referential Index: An expression without any particular reference to any part of the speaker's or listener's experience.
12. Comparative Deletion (Unspecified Comparison): Comparing something without specifying who or what it's being compared to.
13. Pace Current Experience: Implying behaviorally specific information to describe a present experience.
14. Double Bind: Offering a choice within a bigger context of having no choice.
15. Embedded Commands: A command that makes up part of a larger sentence that's highlights by the use of italics, a subtle change in voice tone or body language. The reader or listener's unconscious mind will pick it up.
16. Conversational Postulate: Multi-level question that only a yes or no answer, but invites you to perform an activity in one way or another. They usually contain an embedded command.
17. Extended Quote: A context for delivering information that could be in the form of a command.
"A few years ago, I met a wise man who's advice I took to heart. One day, he told me "change is exciting and gives you options in life".
18. Selectional Restriction Violation: Applying intelligence or animation to inanimate objects.
a. Phonological: "his" and "he's" – Sounds the same, but has a different meaning.
c. Scope: Context doesn't present the scope to which a verb or modifier employs. "Speaking to you as a changed person." – It's unknown who the changed person is.
d. Punctuation: Unexpected and doesn't follow the rules (improper pauses, rambling sentences, incomplete sentences etc.), all of which eventually forces the listener to 'mind read'.
20. Utilization: Utilizing everything within the listener's experience (both internal and external) to support the speaker's intention.
As you can see, there are many ways in which the mind can be manipulated to give a response that you want. The objective of the Milton Model is to uncover information from the unconscious mind through a certain language process.

My phone information uzbekistan mail order brides connection was gradual, and the area was swarming with Taliban fighters looking vehicles and turning folks away.
Secondly, not all of the international places mail-order brides normally come from are poor.
Apparently, the presence of a chimney sweep is taken under consideration a harbinger of excellent fortune for the marriage.
The bowl, created from fragile, salty clay by the masters of Khorezm, a historic pottery middle in western Uzbekistan, sported an intricate, pale azure design I may gaze at forever.

Rather, the brochures merely included commentary on those observations that intently followed the format of official United Nations paperwork. On issues related to judicial independence, he stated the question of whether judges were nonetheless not unbiased was utterly unfounded. He went on to say the courts had been specialised by method of criminal and civil instances. In the most up-to-date period, 65,000 legal instances and 250,000 civil cases were examined. A reconciliation and mediation centre had been set up and over the last eight years prosecutions had been mediated, with non-custodial sentences being rendered.

They could want to move their family members from Uzbekistan to a extra developed nation. To escape that, many Uzbek women seeking men for marriage attempt to go for foreigners. It has a rich gallery of Uzbek women seeking men for marriage. They range greatly in age and interests, too, so anybody can meet the proper woman there. You'd have to spend a lot of time fastidiously sorting by way of profiles to search out potential Uzbek brides there. Apart from its fashionable side, Tashkent is wealthy in historical past and culture too.

This leads to a state of affairs where most Uzbekistan men are unable to supply an excellent way of life to their companions and even going out on a date to a pleasant restaurant is a very uncommon event and regarded as a particular deal with. Essentially this has created a situation where there are fewer men than women. And the men which might be obtainable don't offer a life-style or future which is especially desirable to many Uzbekistan women searching for marriage , that is the principle cause why so many Uzbek bridessearch for a international man to marry. One of the reasons why Uzbek women make such unbelievable girlfriends, brides, and wives is that they don't even know the way nice they are. As a result of their upbringing and social state of affairs in Uzbekistan, local women hardly ever know their true worth until they meet somebody who fully transforms their lives.
Unlike nearbyKazakhstan, which has a a lot larger European population, most Uzbekistan girls are ethnic Uzbeks.

The Soviet government, and to a lesser extent the Russian colonial government that preceded it, folded several less prominent nationalities into the Uzbeks. The government then institutionalized a nationwide Uzbek tradition primarily based on trappings corresponding to language, artwork, gown, and meals, while imbuing them with meanings more closely aligned with Communist ideology. Islam was removed from its central place, veiling of women was banned, and major and minor regional and ethnic differences were smoothed over in favor of an ideologically acceptable uniformity. The 1910s produced the Jadid reform motion, which, although short-lived, sought to determine a community beholden neither to Islamic dogma nor to Russian colonists, marking the first glimmer of national id in many years. With the Russian Revolution in 1917 grew hopes of independence, but by 1921 the Bolsheviks had reasserted control. In 1924 Soviet planners drew the borders for the soviet socialist republics of Uzbekistan and Karakalpakistan, primarily based across the dominant ethnic teams. Karakalpakistan was transferred to the Uzbekistan SSR in 1936, as an autonomous region.
In recent years, there have been governmental and societal adjustments together with a model new president, Shavkat Mirziyoyev. Women, who play a pivotal function in the Uzbek family structure, have experienced different points related to their rights in the country.

Only three international areas in Central Asia26 prohibit disinheritance of the surviving partner, and amongst these nations solely Kazakhstan criminalises property dispossession or the grabbing of inheritance. Women's and girls' inheritance rights are protected by legislative frameworks. All 12 nations within the space provide female surviving spouses and daughters with the identical rights as their male counterparts to inherit land and non-land belongings. Foreigners had largely displaced the native inhabitants, and for the ladies it was not a comfortable existence.

Q: Sending emails to addresses with non-ASCII characters We have a small mailing web service, cause not every app can access the SMTP server. Now This evening, the web service couldn't send a mail because the receiving mail address contained some more complex characters, resulting in a The client or server is only configured for E-mail addresses with ASCII local-parts error.
After googling for a solution, I found out that you should set the DeliveryFormat to International.
I've implemented this, but I still keep getting the same error. Adding a watch also tells me that smtp.IsUnicodeSupported is still false
This is the code at the moment:
System.Net.Mail.MailMessage mail = new System.Net.Mail.MailMessage();
mail.Subject = mailSubject;
mail.Body = mailBody;
mail.IsBodyHtml = true;
mail.Priority = MailPriority.Normal;
mail.HeadersEncoding = Encoding.UTF8;
System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient smtp  = new System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient("smtp.mydomain.net");
smtp.DeliveryFormat = SmtpDeliveryFormat.International;
smtp.Send(mail);

The property smtp.transport.ServerSupportsEai is also still false, but it doesn't seem that contact with the SMTP server has been established at that point.
What else can I do to force the SMTP client to send the mail?
Is it even solvable at the application-end?

A: Non-ASCII characters in email addresses are only partially supported.
If the domain part contains international characters it can be transformed into the proper punycode representation, but if there are non-ascii character to the left of the @-sign there does not seem to be an established standard of coding (except for the experimental RFC 5355 which is not compatible with existing SMTP standards).

A: Late answer, but I solved this by specifying the encoding, like this:
var mailMessage = new MailMessage
{
    From = new MailAddress("test@domain.co.zw", "Test User", Encoding.UTF8)
};

All About The Expert Witness Part 2: How To Become An Expert Witness
By DarrinJanuary 26, 2016Courtroom Proceedings, Legal Information
Welcome to the second part of our three-part series on expert witnesses! In this installment, we discuss what makes someone qualified to be an expert witness.
Catch up on Part 1 here.
If you read the last article in the series, you're probably thinking, "I can make thousands of dollars just for testifying in one court case, sign me up!" But becoming an expert witness isn't as easy as all that. There are really two separate questions to be answered. First is the issue of what qualifications you need for a court to consider you an expert, next is the question of how to actually set yourself up in business as an expert witness. Don't get your hopes up if it sounds easy to get qualified as an expert in court. Just because a judge thinks you're an expert doesn't mean anybody will hire you. Becoming a professional expert witness requires a combination of hard work, luck, and connections or outstanding credentials.
Expert Witness Qualifications
Different courts use different standards to determine whether a witness is an expert, but the bar is relatively low. You probably remember the scene in My Cousin Vinny: Joe Pesci convinces the judge that his sister as an automobile expert by asking her a few questions about cars. Obviously, this is a Hollywood exaggeration, but it's not as far from the truth as you might think. If the judge thinks that the person has some specialized knowledge that will aid in deciding the case, the witness can be qualified as an expert, you don't even need a Ph.D.!
However, the other side's lawyer will try to cross-examine you to minimize your qualifications so that the jury is less likely to trust the contents of your expert witness report. They may ask you where you went to school and how long you've been working in the field. They may even ask how many court cases you testified in and what side you testified to make you seem biased. For example, if you're a forensic scientist for the New York police department, you probably get called in as a forensic expert witness for the prosecution all the time. The other side's lawyer would try to make it look like your scientific objectivity is compromised by the nature of your job and your close relationship to law enforcement. So while the minimum bar for an expert witness is low, everything from your work history to the number of degrees you have could be important in determining how good of a witness you are.
The Daubert Test
The real battle happens not in deciding whether the person is an expert in a field, but whether the field itself is based on sound scientific principles. For example, you could be a paranormal expert, but even if the judge is convinced you know a lot about ghosts, you can't testify as an expert in court, because paranormal studies aren't based in science. The example may be extreme, but this issue that often arises with new fields of science or psychology that aren't accepted by the scientific community as a whole.
Federal courts and most state courts follow the Daubert test to determine the admissibility of evidence. Under the Daubert standard, the judge must determine whether it is more likely than not that the expert's methods are reliable and reliably applied to the case at hand. In order to determine whether the expert's methods are reliable, the judge must determine whether their findings are based on a sound "scientific methodology". There are a number of factors to guide judges in determining what makes a sound methodology under the Daubert test.
First the judge must look to whether expert's conclusions are based on a theory that is subject to empirical testing, whether the theory is falsifiable or refutable in some way. This is a basic element of the scientific method and if the expert's testimony isn't based on testable methods, then the testimony won't be admitted at trial. Next the judge must examine whether the theory has been subject to peer review or evaluation. This means usually means that the theory must have been published in a peer-reviewed academic journal. The judge will also consider the known or potential error rate of the method or theory, the existence and maintenance of standards and controls concerning its operation and the degree to which the theory and technique is generally accepted by a relevant scientific community.
How To Become An Expert Witness
Unfortunately becoming an actual professional expert witness isn't as easy as just having a court qualify you as an expert. As you probably noticed in the earlier section, expert witness qualifications can be very important in determining whether a jury believes you, and nobody wants to hire an expert witness that won't be believed.
The career path of an expert witness may look very different depending on the area of expertise. For example experts in medical, psychological and academic fields are usually respected practitioners in their fields who start working as expert witnesses on the side because a lawyer asks them to testify in a case. These types of experts may also have a successful career in their field, treating patients, conducting research and publishing papers, before they retire to be an expert witness.
The career of a forensic expert witness looks very different because forensics is a field that is only used in court. Usually, these experts act as witnesses as part of their job working for a law enforcement agency and don't need the same kind of exemplary qualifications as other experts. Other kinds of expert witnesses get into the business in different ways, but we'll talk more about specific kinds of experts and what they do in the next article in this series!

At least once in every career each of us has a defining moment. It could be being fired, promoted to management or simply learning a new trade. In my case it may well have been the moment, more correctly hours and days I spent studying under Stanley M. Herman, coauthor (with Michael Lorenich) of the book "Authentic Management: A Gestalt Orientation to Organizations and Their Development".
Stan had come to Virginia to lead a "live in" seminar or a particular view of management style and responsibility. At the time, I was in the midst of preparing for an MBA program, even as I was managing a team of very talented systems analysts and programmers. I was skeptical about what might be gained by taking many hours away from work to learn more about a psychological approach to managing human beings and driving corporate productivity. Boy was I in for a surprise.
Stan spent three days drilling into us the concept of dealing with "what is". In other words, he trained us to find the reality in each business challenge or opportunity and to reject the fear and guilt factors that serve as disablers for many managers and subordinates.
I'm going to quote directly from the book and then get back to the point.
My point is that, should we exist only in our lofty management surround, and thereby devalue or fail to hear the thoughts and concerns of those that report to us, we are squandering some of the most powerful productivity tools we have at hand… co-operation and collaboration with those on the front lines. If we ignore the power of that collaboration we are guilty of what Stan called "the myth of omnipotence".

And it's precisely because it takes that route that it's such an incredibly cool model.
Yes, I know you said that. I respect that, you know how to interpret the model correctly! But there are others here who insist on figuring out the date and listing attractions with dates to prove it (not to mention any names, Bob Weaver ). I've made my point, and I'll leave it at that. It's Walt's vision of the park as far as we knew based on present and future plans.
Some more details shots, which is discouraged by the staff since they want you to come out and see the details for yourself! (which explains why there are a lot of general shots out there)

This does of course add fuel to the questions of what Walt would think of various changes such as Splash Mountain or Indy... To be more specific he was close friends with Walter Knott... would he have envisioned a similar log ride for his own park?
Overall it shows a creative direction Walt may have taken at that time... but even if he had taken that direction there is no way of knowing if the changes made later would in any way resemble even that park.

Thanks for the link; it killed me not to be able to take pictures myself when I toured the museum a week or so back. So now my question:
Look to the top right of this photo, next to IASM and just above the blue Monorail. What's that building represent? It stood out to me that day, and the docent on duty didn't know either.

Clearly this model is an artistic representation of a Disneyland that never exisisted.
I love that the model has a Space Mountain that looks like John Hench's early drawings.
I saw a local program that covered the museum. It is available on their website Eye On The Bay - cbs5.com
In the piece, they noted that the model was created by a SFx house that does modeling for movie productions. In the piece you can see a little bit of the movement in the model.
I am anxious to get out to the Presidio!
Oh, and I would love to have the Matterhorn part of the model. Here's hoping the Olzsewski Matterhorn looks as cool.

It looks like Walt's Barn, which is now residing at the Live Steamers site in Griffith Park. I don't know if the model is supposed to represent it at that site or not.

For me, the lack of physical model people allowed me to put myself in the model and imagine looking at those structures like I was the only one at Disneyland.
There are implied people though. The Monorail and People Mover, Matterhorn, and other rides seem to be running or at least that could be assumed. Especially since there is some animation on some attractions. So you could assume (imagine) invisible guests would be in those cars.
edit: The Matterhorn looks a bit like Swiss cheese. All the holes. . .

Well actually, I take back my last comment, I found this info:
The idea for the attraction carries back to Walt Disney himself, who described such a show during a 1962 interview. When discussing his new audio-animatronic process and its applications in The Enchanted Tiki Room and an as-yet untitled haunted house attraction, Walt said he had similar plans for "all the Disney characters."
"I have in mind a theater," he said, "and the figures will not only put on the show but be sitting in the boxes with the visitors, heckling. I don't know just when I'll do that."

Flight 28-Non Combat Casualties of War in WWII
Posted on October 23, 2016 by dirkdeklein under Air Disaster, Civilian casualties, History, World War 2
Not all casualties during WWII were caused by battles or other war related events. Like any other era in history there were also other 'regular' disasters that occurred. However this disaster was indirectly linked to WWII actions.
October 23 1942 – All 12 passengers and crewmen aboard an American Airlines DC-3 airliner were killed when it is struck by a U.S. Army Air Forces bomber near Palm Springs, California. Among the victims is award-winning composer and songwriter Ralph Rainger.
American Airlines Flight 28 was a scheduled domestic passenger flight that crashed on October 23, 1942 in Chino Canyon, near Palm Springs, California after being struck by a United States Army Air Forces B-34 'Lexington' bomber. The B-34 suffered only minor damage, and landed safely at the Army Airport of the Sixth Ferrying Command, Palm Springs, California.
(the picture below is of a B-34 bomber,not the one that caused the crash)
Flight 28 departed from the Lockheed Air Terminal in Burbank, California at 4:36 p.m. on October 23, 1942.
At 5:02 p.m., Captain Pedley reported his position over Riverside, California, and estimated his arrival over Indio, California, at 5:22 p.m. and 9,000 feet (2,700 m). At 4:26 p.m., the B-34 bomber departed from Long Beach, California, en route to Palm Springs. Lieutenant Wilson proceeded to Riverside, circled twice near March Field, and continued toward the San Gorgonio Pass.
At approximately 5:15 p.m., at an altitude of approximately 9,000 feet (2,700 m), Flight 28 was struck by the B-34. The DC-3 lost its rudder to the propeller from the B-34's right engine, along with portions of its tail. It fell from the sky in a flat spin and impacted a rocky ledge in Chino Canyon, below San Jacinto Peak, before crashing into the desert and exploding.
Lieutenant Wilson later testified at his court martial proceedings that he first realized that the two aircraft had collided when he heard a "noise and a wrenching of my ship up… to my left."He also testified that he noticed that his aircraft handled sluggishly and the right engine felt "rough." He was informed by his copilot that they had hit the airliner. The B-34 called the Palm Springs tower to notify them of the accident and then subsequently landed at Palm Springs Army Airport.
The Burbank operator at the company station reported that he had picked up a message from Flight 28 at exactly 5:15 p.m., saying: "Flight 28 from Burbank… correction Burbank from Flight 28…" The radio operator was only able to distinguish the flight calling Burbank, and though he attempted to respond, he received no answer from Flight 28. He then directed the message to the American Airlines Flight Superintendent at Burbank. The Civil Aeronautics Board determined that, as Flight 28 crashed at 5:15 p.m., it was possible that the pilots were attempting to report the collision
Three separate investigations into the accident occurred: a coroner's inquest, a military investigation and court martial, and the official Congressional investigation of the Civil Aeronautics Board. All three investigations were independent of the others.
The coroner inquest was the first investigation to be completed, occurring shortly after the crash. Its purpose was not to decide absolute culpability, but rather to determine exactly the manner of death of the involved individuals. During the inquest, both surviving Army pilots testified that they had seen the airliner, but that they had subsequently lost sight of it when their aircraft had flown into smoke from a nearby forest fire.
Air safety investigators of the Civil Aeronautics Board arrived at the scene of the crash at midnight of October 23. The remnants of the aircraft were placed under military guard for the duration of the investigation.During the course of the investigation, it was learned that Lieutenant Wilson of the B-34 and First Officer Reppert of Flight 28 had trained together, and had met up the previous night and talked about their chances of meeting while in flight. Though they briefly discussed the possibility of signalling each other, they made no such plans to the effect. The B-34 copilot, Sergeant Leigh, told investigators that Wilson had confided that he'd like to fly close to the airliner and "thumb his nose at him."[1] It was for this reason that the bomber circled twice around March Air Force Base in order to ensure that the aircraft would meet up during the flight to Palm Springs.
Subsequent depositions revealed that Lt Wilson flew his B-34 level with the DC-3 and rocked his wings in greeting to First Officer Reppert. When Flight 28 did not respond in kind, the B-34 crossed over the airliner's line of flight and throttled back to allow the slower DC-3 to catch up. Lt Wilson flew close to the airliner to attempt a second greeting, but misjudged the distance between the aircraft, and when he tried to pull up, the B-34's right propeller sliced through the airliner's tail.
The Civil Aeronautics Board determined that the cause of the crash was:
The reckless and irresponsible conduct of Lieutenant William N. Wilson in deliberately maneuvering a bomber in dangerous proximity to an airliner in an unjustifiable attempt to attract the attention of the first officer (copilot) of the latter plane.
— Civil Aeronautics Board Docket #SA-74, File# 2362-42.
Lieutenant Wilson faced manslaughter charges by the U.S. Army. During the course of the court martial proceedings, a number of military witnesses produced testimony that corroborated the findings of the CAB. One witness, however, Private Roy West, provided testimony in direct contradiction of the previous witnesses. According to Private West:
They were coming through this Pass and the Bomber in a right bank and the airliner moved in under it. The airliner nosed down and the tail came up and hit the right motor of the Bomber and the tail was cut off….
— Roy West, Private, US Army, Army Court Martial Proceedings of Lieutenant William Wilson.
The CAB dismissed West's statement as unreliable, as when a plane's nose dips, the tail does not rise by such a significant amount as witnessed by West. However, the court-martial trial board acquitted Lt. Wilson of blame in the accident.
The Lockheed B-34 that collided with American Flight 28 was repaired and re-designated as an RB-34A-4 target tug. On August 5, 1943 the same RB-34, serial number 41-38116, suffered engine failure during a ferry flight and crashed into Wolf Hill near Smithfield, Rhode Island, killing all three crew members.
A U.S. Army RB-34 like the one that crashed on Wolf Hill in the Georgiaville section of Smithfield,

Freckleton air disaster-23 August 1944
Posted on August 23, 2016 by dirkdeklein under Air Disaster, Airforce, Children, History, School, World War 2
During WWII there were several incidents where civilians were killed by friendly fire by allied forces, like the 5 Oct 1942 air raid on Geleen.
https://dirkdeklein.net/2016/01/20/forgotten-history/
Or by accident like the Freckleton Air Disaster.
On 23 August 1944, an American United States Army Air Forces Consolidated B-24 Liberator heavy bomber crashed into the centre of the village of Freckleton, Lancashire, England. The aircraft crashed into the Holy Trinity Church of England School, demolishing three houses and the Sad Sack Snack Bar. The death toll was 61, including 38 children.
Two newly refurbished B-24s, prior to delivery to the 2nd Combat Division, departed USAAF Base Air Depot 2 at Warton Aerodrome on a test flight at 10.30 am. Due to an impending violent storm, both were recalled. By the time they had returned to the vicinity of the aerodrome, however, the wind and rain had significantly reduced visibility. Contemporary newspaper reports detailed wind velocities approaching 60 mph (100 km/h), water spouts in the Ribble Estuary and flash flooding in Southport and Blackpool.
At Holy Trinity School, teachers and students observed the darkness descend on the village. The pounding rain was overshadowed by the gusting winds, the roar of thunder, and lightning bolts slicing through the sky. Five years old at the time, Ruby Whittle (nee Currell) remembers, "It went very, very dark. There was thunder and lightning, and all sorts of crashes and bangs overhead. I remember the teacher putting on the classroom lights and she began reading to us."
On approach from the west, towards runway 08, and in formation with the second aircraft, First Lieutenant John Bloemendal,pilot of the first Consolidated B-24H Liberator USAAF serial number 42-50291 (named Classy Chassis II), reported to the control tower that he was aborting landing at the last moment and would perform a go-around.
Shortly afterwards, and out of sight of the second aircraft, the aircraft hit the village of Freckleton, just east of the airfield.
Already flying very low to the ground and with wings near vertical, the aircraft's right wing tip first hit a tree-top, and then was ripped away as it impacted with the corner of a building. The rest of the wing continued, ploughing along the ground and through a hedge. The fuselage of the 25-ton bomber continued, partly demolishing three houses and the Sad Sack Snack Bar, before crossing Lytham Road and bursting into flames. A part of the aircraft hit the infants' wing of Freckleton Holy Trinity School. Fuel from the ruptured tanks ignited and produced a sea of flames.
In the school, thirty-eight school children and six adults were killed. The clock in one classroom stopped at 10.47 am. In the Sad Sack Snack Bar, which catered specifically for American servicemen from the airbase, fourteen were killed: seven Americans, four Royal Air Force airmen and three civilians. The three crew on the B-24 were also killed.
A total of 23 adults and 38 children died in the disaster.
The devastation in the infants' wing was complete. Seven of the young victims were either first or second cousins to each other. Ironically, three of the children were evacuees from the London area. They had come to Freckleton as part of Operation Rivulet. The British government had instituted this program to move children to safe havens out of the range of German V-1 rocket attacks. Only two children from Freckleton, Ruby Whittle and George Carey (David Madden was from Brighton, England), escaped the infants' wing devastation. For years to come, the local school was missing an entire grade level.
The official report stated that the exact cause of the crash was unknown, but concluded that the pilot had not fully realised the danger the storm posed until under way in his final approach, by which time he had insufficient altitude and speed to manoeuvre, given the probable strength of wind and downdraughts that must have prevailed.
Structural failure of the aircraft in the extreme conditions was not ruled out, although the complete destruction of the airframe had precluded any meaningful investigation.
Noting that many of the pilots coming to the UK commonly believed that British storms were little more than showers, the report recommended that all U.S. trained pilots should be emphatically warned of the dangers of British thunderstorms .
A memorial garden and children's playground were opened in August 1945, in memory of those lost, the money for the playground equipment having been raised by American airmen at the Warton airbase. A fund for a memorial hall was started, and the hall was finally opened in September 1977. In addition to a memorial in the village churchyard, a marker was placed at the site of the accident in 2007

Q: UnAuthorized Overlay Error on entering Picture in Picture mode YoutubePlayer View Android? I am doing live streaming for the youtube videos. By entering into the picture in picture mode the player pause the video with the Error UNAUTHORIZED_OVERLAY .

}
I am loading the video on the oninitializedsuccess and play the video in the on Loaded.
I have tried all the possible solutions so that no view is on the top of the youtube player view but it always gives me same error.

A: I think the issue is with your OnPictureInPictureModeChanged method..
public override void OnPictureInPictureModeChanged(bool isInPictureInPictureMode, Configuration newConfig)
{
    base.OnPictureInPictureModeChanged(isInPictureInPictureMode, newConfig);
    if (IsInPictureInPictureMode)
    {

        youtubevideo.Release();
        Window.AddFlags(WindowManagerFlags.Fullscreen);

    }

    }

The reason I see here why the error UNAUTHORIZED_OVERLAY pops up is your AddFlags Call when in PIP Mode..
Modify your code as below and check to see if the error persists..
@Override
public void onPictureInPictureModeChanged(boolean isInPictureInPictureMode) {
if (isInPictureInPictureMode) {
    // Hide the controls in picture-in-picture mode.
    ...
} else {
    // Restore the playback UI based on the playback status.
    ...
}
}

With regards to your addflags call, try the following code:
@Override
public void onPictureInPictureModeChanged(boolean isInPictureInPictureMode) {
super.onPictureInPictureModeChanged(isInPictureInPictureMode);

if (!isInPictureInPictureMode) {
  getApplication().startActivity(new Intent(this, getClass())
    .addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_REORDER_TO_FRONT));
}
}
