Automatic speed cameras are catching out speeding boaties in marinas across Marlborough.
Hi tech cameras in Picton, Waikawa and Havelock Marinas are recording every vessel as it arrives and leaves.
Around ten people have been slapped with $200 infringement notices since the cameras were installed.
Acting Harbourmaster Jan Eveleens revealed the cameras have been calibrated to a high standard, like those used by police officers.
He says the Marlborough District Council funded cameras came after an idea to install signs like those that flash up speeds for motorists.

"I thought we should have them in the marinas, but they were not accurate enough.
"It's been a bit of an experiment as they [the new cameras] were picking up waves and seabirds but they're much better now, very accurate."
The camera at Havelock was installed last winter while the Picton and Waikawa cameras were put up in December.
They record every vessels' speed as they arrive and leave in the marina.
Boats going above the limit are instantly recorded and an alert goes to the Harbour Master.
Infringement notices are sent to boat owners by the council for breaking local bylaws.
Jan says people flouting the 8-knot speed limit as they arrive at Havelock Marina and the 5-knot limit in place at Picton and Waikawa will face fines.
"There have been some serial offenders but what we are seeing is that once word gets out is that people are slowing down.
"We had one boat coming into Havelock that drove straight into one of the beacons and the boatie hurt himself.
"People can hurt themselves if they are going too fast."
The Harbourmaster will also monitor speed limits on the lower Wairau River from the State Highway 1 Bridge to below the Blenheim Rowing Club.
Jan says there have been reports of jet skiers on this stretch of the river going too fast.
The maximum speed in this section of the river is 5 knots.
"We want people to slow down and be safe," he says.

It was her 28th birthday, a day she should have spent with those who loved her, but instead those gathered remembered a girl conspicuous by her absence.
A vigil to mark missing Renwick woman Jessica Boyce's birthday was held in Seymour Square in Blenheim on Sunday evening.
People gathered to remember the young woman they all know as Jess, to share stories about the "bright and bubbly" girl they all loved.
And as the chime of the last bell rang out from the clock tower at 7pm, a rendition of Happy Birthday filled the air, followed by a minute silence.

Her close friend and cousin, Aaron Goodwin, says the event was a chance for people to reflect and share.
The family wanted members of the public to be able to attend as they have been "so helpful and supportive", since Jessica's disappearance in March last year.
Jessica went missing on March 19 last year. Her disappearance was upgraded to a homicide investigation in October.
Her case is now being treated as a homicide by Blenheim detectives in charge of the investigation.
Detective Senior Sergeant Ciaran Sloan says those responsible were likely acquaintances of Jessica's.
Aaron, who grew up alongside Jessica, returned to live in Blenheim on Friday, moving back to the town he grew up in from Dunedin.
It's been a "confronting" few days, with memories everywhere he looks, he says.
It was her friends who came up with the idea of marking her birthday.
Amid the stories shared and fond memories of the bright-eyed blonde, were tales of parties past.
Speaking to the Marlborough Weekly last year, Aaron described Jess as very sociable and easy to get on with.
The Help Find Jess website started by her family is now named Remembering Jessica Boyce.
She always believed the best in people, says Aaron.
"She was so innocently naïve and genuinely did not understand about consequences, but she was not the hard woman that some people seem to think she was.
"We're talking about an almost 30-year-old woman whose favourite movies were old Disney ones."
Her friends spoke of her fun-loving nature, her kindness and willingness to help. Her absence is felt by all who know her, Aaron says.

War time memories stolen in heritage heist
Precious war time memories, including a soldier's medals and postcards home have been stolen by callous thieves.
A haul of heritage items has been taken from a padlocked storage container in Ward used by trustees from Flaxbourne Heritage Museum.
Items belonging to Private Arthur Wooding were among a cache of historical items swiped.

Flaxbourne Heritage trustee Sally Peter says she is struggling to put into words how upsetting the theft is.
"It's a real violation. He served for future generations of the community to be here; they've taken something sacred away.
"We were looking after then for the future and I can't help but blame myself for this," she says.
The theft is believed to have happened between 23-24 November.

A book commemorating Arthur's first communion at St Peter's Church in Ward on 3 February 1929, four medals, a small uniform repair kit and a pair of binoculars are among items taken.
Sally says she had been going to pick items up from the container when she discovered the padlocks had been cut open.
The museum's ANZAC collection had been near the doors as it is used every year to commemorate the special day.
"I don't think they knew what they were looking for and think maybe they got a fright and ran off as there was heavy stuff left outside.
"The ANZAC boxes were close to the door as I use them every year for a display at Ward Hall.
"I feel I could have done better," she says.
The Flaxbourne Museum collection has been stored in two shipping containers in Ward following the magnitude 7.8-magnitude earthquake in 2016.
Other items, not part of the Wooding Collection, were also stolen, including an intricately engraved cornet, once part of the popular Ward Band.
A lantern off the shipwreck Wakatu was taken in the break in and an old inkwell from Ward School.
Sally says telling Arthur's family about the theft was "awful."
"This was a box containing precious memories from a man's time away fighting for our country, including his medals, photos, postcards, his sewing kit for quick mends, his binoculars, buttons, badges and other things pertaining to his years spent away.
"How low can you get and how dare someone violate this privacy and his memory."
Police are investigating the theft and anyone with any information can contact police via 105.

Family share victim's photo to shame killer
The family of missing woman Jessica Boyce want people to share her photo on social media to help shame her killer into coming forward.
Jessica's cousin Aaron Goodwin has posted a new profile pic of the smiling Renwick woman, who disappeared on March 19.
He urged people to share the photo in the hope it would prick someone's conscience.
In the post he says how he hopes the post would propel people to come forward.
"Beautiful Jess. Keeping her as my profile photo in solidarity with investigators and everyone else trying to get justice for Jess.
"Hopefully seeing Jess everywhere might break the conscience of whoever is involved and propel them to come forward.
"Anything's worth a shot, eh? If anyone else wants to do this, even just for 48hrs it would be really cool to her smiling face everywhere," he wrote.
Possible forensic evidence relating to the homicide investigation has been seized by police from a Blenheim home.
Police working on the disappearance of Renwick woman Jessica Boyce, 27, searched a house on Warwick Street and another on Henderson Street last week.
Detective Senior Sergeant Ciaran Sloan says the occupant of the Warwick Street address was spoken to by police on Thursday, but no arrests have been made.
"A second warrant was executed at a Henderson Street address and samples of potential forensic value were seized.
"The investigation continues to receive information from the public and investigators are steadily working through inquiries that have been generated from that information," he says.
Forensic scientists from crime scene specialist firm ESR assisted police at both addresses.
Jessica was last seen in a red Holden Rodeo ute in Renwick.
The ute was found three days later at the Lake Chalice car park in the Mount Richmond Forest Park but police bosses think it was left there deliberately to hinder the investigation.
Detective Senior Sergeant Sloan says enquiries are ongoing.

Hundreds of school speeders stung in traffic operation
A recent speed sting has left Marlborough police "disappointed" with hundreds of drivers flouting road rules.
Almost 300 tickets were issued in four hours on Tuesday to motorists speeding past Marlborough Girls College on Nelson Street in Blenheim.
New Zealand Police Marlborough prevention manager senior sergeant Peter Payne says the result is "incredibly disappointing".
"Even small increases in speed result in a much greater increase in your stopping distance," Peter says.
"That can mean the difference between life and death for pedestrians, so it's vital that drivers slow down around schools."
Mother-of-two Tracey Phillips says it is "just a matter of time" before someone is seriously injured or killed outside the high school.
"I sit there every day waiting for my daughter and it makes me cringe how fast these vehicles go," Tracey says.
"It's a ridiculous, crazy situation and I don't know why they can't slow down; I think it's getting worse too."
Her concerns come as New Zealand Transport Authority reveal a planned pedestrian crossing controlled by traffic lights may be shelved.
NZTA Top of the South system manager Andrew James says the decision to combine both Marlborough Girls' and Boys' Colleges on the same site has delayed the promised crossing.
"Our funding and design was based on specific location and traffic movements, so the move of Boys' College onto the Girls' site adds a new layer of complexity," Andrew says.
The 'road policing operation' on Tuesday saw 288 infringement notices issued on Nelson Street.
Marlborough police say they will continue to monitor traffic throughout November and will focus on safe driving around schools.
"Motorists need to be driving at a speed and in a manner that enables them to respond safely to the unexpected," Peter says.

Rose Built Homes used as 'cash cow'
The bungling former owners of a defunct building firm may face criminal charges for fraud.
Rose Built Homes, which folded in September, has left Marlborough businesses out of pocket to the tune of $1.6 million.
Appointed liquidator Brenton Hunt revealed creditors were unlikely to see any money back, branding the case "one of the worst" he has seen in 25-years.
Treating the company as a "personal cash cow" could see former directors Ryan Butler and Kyle Payne in court, he says.
And the former directors have turned on each other, with Kyle blaming some of their dodgy dealings on his colleagues "gambling problems".
The revelation comes amid rumours that Kyle has fled the country.
Brenton says he can't stop Kyle from leaving the country.
"I can't stop him travelling until I actually have judgement against him, and even then, a border alert would require details of his actual flight," he says.
"Regardless…he can still be bankrupted here in New Zealand."
Local contractors and businesses have been left high and dry, with one secured creditor owed more than $500,000.
Investigations uncovered a raft of costly personal purchases bought using company funds.
Boats, motorcycles and cars bought on finance were being paid from company accounts but registered to the young company directors.
But Brenton says he doubts any money will be paid out to any class of creditor.
"There were very few assets to be collected. Some office equipment and limited tools were collected from the office.
"The majority of these were returned to Christchurch and sold by Mainland Auctions, limited amount were sold to interested parties in Blenheim."
"A number of creditors have raised jet skis as another asset, but I have never managed to locate any," he says.
In addition, Kyle Payne traded a company asset, a Ford Mustang, on an Audi he recorded as his personally.
"The Audi still has a significant amount of finance over and above the trade-in value."
Tax payments are "well behind" with no annual accounts ever produced.
Brenton says Kyle tried to blame the lack of tax payments on the company's accountant, however, it is the director's responsibility to file returns.
PAYE had not been paid since December 2018.
Kyle, in an interview with the liquidator, says he was not aware that non-payment of PAYE was a criminal offence.
"A huge amount of personal expenditure was coded in the company records as business expenditure and GST attempted to be claimed," Brenton says.
"I have been working in insolvency for ten years, and as an accountant for over twenty-five years.
"Rarely have I seen company records in such a bad state.
"It has been very hard to work out anything form the records kept so I have had to go back to bank transactions.
GST had not been filed since March 2019 or paid since May 2018.
Brenton says Kyle had appeared to have committed "several items" of fraud and a creditor has offered to assist in filing a criminal complaint to police for fraud.
"Insurance records have been altered to allow customers to make drawdowns, customers have been asked to pay into bank accounts which are not company bank accounts and various customers and creditors have been lied to repeatedly," he says.
"After recoding a lot of the expenditure which Kyle Payne had recorded as business expenditure but was paid to his own bank accounts, I have made a demand for $335,739.
"I have had no response to this demand so are now commencing judgement against him for this debt."
Kyle sold his house, on Howick Rd, in September.
Brenton says Ryan was cooperative during the liquidation.
"He is apologetic for where everything has ended up and claims he never knew just how bad everything was.
"Regardless of his regrets he was a director and personally guaranteed several of the debts."
Brenton says Ryan is looking into bankruptcy.
"As there has been very limited recovery from the company, I am funding a lot of the continued work for the liquidation myself.
He says the only asset of the company is the money which the directors had withdrawn in various ways.
"The likelihood of recovery of this for creditors is fairly remote so it is not anticipated any distribution for any class of creditor will happen.
"Regardless of this I will continue with my action against the director and see what comes out of it."

Support for sex scandal school in wake of guilty pleas
Education bosses have pledged their ongoing support to a school stricken by an underage sex scandal.
Students at a Blenheim high school are a "top priority" say Ministry of Education staff after a former member of staff pleaded guilty to having sex with minors.
In the wake of her guilty pleas, acting deputy secretary, sector enablement and support Coralanne Child says support to those affected is ongoing.
"The safety and wellbeing of students is a top priority for us, as it is for boards of trustees, parents and whānau.
"In this case, we continue to offer our support to the school and its board as it moves past this challenging event," she says.
The woman, who cannot be named, admitted seven counts of having sex with minors, and two of sending sexual images and video to minors, at the Blenheim District Court last week.
She was convicted and bailed for sentencing.
Her registration with the Teaching Council of Aotearoa New Zealand has been cancelled though she may be eligible to apply again.
A spokeswoman from the council says no formal hearing will be held though the former teacher will be told officially that she has been struck from the register.
"A person with a cancelled teacher registration is able to apply for registration again.
"However, if they have been convicted of a specified offence, they must first be granted an exemption by the Ministry of Social Development.
"Then the person may apply to the Teaching Council for registration and we review and consider if the person meets our registration requirements," she says.
The school's Board of Trustees welcomed the woman's guilty pleas, saying it "ensures justice" for all those caught up in the case.
In a letter to parents, the chairman of the Board of Trustees says he hopes the move will "provide closure."
"Her actions breached the trust of so many and it is appropriate that she has taken sole responsibility by pleading guilty," he says.
He added that he hoped sentencing at the end of the year would allow people to move forward.
"I am very thankful that this matter will be concluded before the end of the year for the sake of our community, staff, parents and boys."I would like to thank the police and all of the other agencies involved in this case for their diligence and their care during this very difficult time … and ensuring that this did not impact on the wider student body of our college," he says.
But not everyone has been happy with the handling of the case, with one worried parent branding it "disgusting".
The woman, who asked not to be named, says the scandal was felt by the wider community.
She says the guilty woman seemingly showed no remorse for her actions and was spotted at several public events, including junior rugby games.
"Talk about allowing her access to a smorgasbord of underage boys.
"I'm not comfortable with her being allowed to watch my boy play rugby and I know other parents feel the same.
"If this was a male teacher who was accused of having sex with underage girls- I highly doubt he would be allowed down the netball courts.
"Those poor boys and their families being made to look like fools by our justice system."
The woman will appear for sentencing at Blenheim District Court on 17 December.

Blind cat saved from watery death
An elderly, blind cat has been reunited with his owner after being rescued just moments before being drowned.
Marlborough SPCA staff were tipped off by the public that someone was trying to drown 15-year-old tabby cat, Max.
His distraught owner had been searching for his beloved pet for a month and was reunited after staff at the Renwick centre swooped in to save him.
An SPCA spokeswoman says they took Max into their Foxes Island centre to care for him.
"Earlier this month, SPCA Renwick were called out to reports of a member of the public trying to drown a cat.
"SPCA took the cat in but were concerned about his overall health due to old age.
"A few days after the rescue, an SPCA employee noticed that the cat looked very much like one he had seen on a missing poster and on Facebook.
"Max is now back in his loving home, getting the care and attention he needs," she says.
Centre staff now hope people will help raise money for other animals in need.
"Without the help of the public, a story like Max's may not have ended so well.
"The SPCA rely on Kiwis for their donations to continue carrying out the fantastic work they do every day, in this case, it included rescuing Max, nursing him back to good health and reuniting him with his owner," the spokeswoman says.
The SPCA's latest fundraiser, the Great NZ Paws Walk takes place on 9 November and the Foxes Island centre urgently needs more people and pups on board.
Staff will be hosting a walk from 10am. Sign up via www.spca.nz/centre/renwick-centre.
Sounds locals appalled by 'ghastly' dumping
Cruel pet owners have been ditching animals at a remote dump site – creating an illegal pet cemetery.
A concerned Port Underwood resident has discovered a dead dog with a gunshot wound as well as a cage of abandoned guinea pigs.
The woman, who asked not to be named for fear of reprisal, says the area has an "ongoing" illegal dumping problem.
Alongside children's toys and household rubbish, what should be beloved family pets are being discarded, she says.
"It's quite ghastly.
"It's obviously a bach owner – they've just done a house up.
"There's gib and wood panelling, but also pig skins and carcasses.
"Green waste is no biggy, but appliances, the big stuff, it's costing us an arm and a leg."
The dog was discovered last week amongst gib and other debris down a cliff from a skid site along the windy Port Underwood Road.
This follows the finding of a cage of black guinea pigs, some dead and some alive, found nearby a week earlier.
Police and the council have been contacted but claim there is nothing they can do.
"Police say they can't do anything without a registration number.
"Council say it's out of their jurisdiction," she says.
"The locals want it to stop.
"It's tragic to see the amount of people affected by the rubbish."
A council spokesman says "flytipping" is a problem in the Marlborough Sounds "from time to time".
"The council sympathises with landowners who suffer from flytipping, but the onus is usually on them to remove any rubbish dumped on
their property," the spokesman says.
"The Council operates seven transfer stations throughout Marlborough and people are encouraged to take their waste there."
The spokesman says council is trialling free tip days at transfer stations in an effort to reduce illegal dumping across the district.
"We will follow up with this landowner and see if we can assist," he says.
The council spokesman says council have been trialling free dump days at the Picton Transfer Station and at Foxs Island in Renwick in a bid to clamp down on illegal dumping.
The free tipping excludes green waste and is limited to one vehicle load.
He says the trial will extend to the Blenheim Transfer Station before the end of the year.
Anyone with information about illegal dumping can call the council on 03 520 7400.
The spokesman says the council will prosecute offenders if they are caught.

Patrol recruits ready to hit the streets
Picton will soon see community patrollers walking the beat as a bid to help police officers pays off.
Six new recruits have volunteered with the Blenheim Community Patrol to help keep Picton safe as the summer seasons gets underway.
And with a new car on its way, the newbies should be out on patrol before Christmas.
Patrol coordinator and volunteer Moira Conroy says the team currently make regular rounds in Picton every couple of weeks on a Friday night.
The boost in numbers means the coastal town will soon have its own dedicated team, she says.
"Four people are currently going through the process and another two will begin soon.
"We could always do with more though, especially as volunteers will be doing walking patrols to cover cruise ship season."
An extra patrol car is set to arrive from the Palmerston North branch of Community Patrol New Zealand.
"It's great as it's already kitted out," Moira says.
Since it began in 2017, the patrol has been proactive in the community and all volunteers
Earlier this year volunteers spent a morning visiting the Southern Police Communications Centre where all 111 calls are taken.
"We were shown through the call centre where all the 111 emergency calls are received by extremely competent call takers and then dispatched to the relevant local police units.
"It was fair to say that we were very impressed and inspired with what we were shown and are in awe of the ability and professionalism displayed by the comms call centre staff," Moira says.
The community patrol group will be holding a crime prevention event at Bunnings on 16 November.
Blenheim Community Patrol are running the fundraiser refitting number plates with special "anti-theft screws" for just $5 a vehicle.
Members of the community anti-crime group will be in the carpark from 10am until 2pm fitting number plates with anti-theft screws for a gold coin donation.
Police will also be there to engrave work tools.

Release notes allegedly for the upcoming iOS 8.2 were published on Thursday by BGR. The details reportedly come from a golden master build that Apple has provided to employees and testers.
It's expected that Apple could release the software next week, potentially at Monday's "Spring Forward" event where it is expected to give the final details on the upcoming Apple Watch. Beta builds of iOS 8.2 provided to developers gave the first opportunity to build connected Apple Watch apps with the WatchKit tools.
iOS 8.2 is also said to improve stability of Mail, Maps Flyover, Music, VoiceOver, and connectivity with Made for iPhone Hearing Aids. A number of bug fixes are also mentioned in the changelog, such as fixes for an issue navigating to favorites in Maps, a problem with autocorrecting the last word in a quick reply message, and a problem with duplicate iTunes content that prevented iCloud restores.
The same publication incorrectly predicted that iOS 8.2 would be released to the public this week. It has also claimed that iOS 8.3, which is also currently on its second beta build for developers, will have as many as four beta versions before it is released to the public.
Apple is expected to open up iOS betas for public testing starting in mid-March, likely with iOS 8.3. That would mark the first time Apple has made advance versions of iOS available to non-developers.
BGR really going out on a limb here. /s ????
Health can't tell the difference between being in my pocket on a bike ride and being in my pocket when I am walking. It'll be nice to run off step tracking when I get on a bike.
Remember not to disable the capability to make and receive phone calls this time, Apple.
Dude. Maybe Siri will be able to give me my step count in the new IOS??? Zzzzz.
With 8.2, I'd be happy with 0 new features and 8,000 bug fixes.

Mick McCarthy tasked with working wonders in second coming
FAI moved quickly to bring back former manager with unveiling set to happen this weekend
Fri, Nov 23, 2018, 22:24 Updated: Fri, Nov 23, 2018, 22:38
Emmet Malone
Mick McCarthy has a track record of doing well with limited resources at clubs.
Sixteen years and one month after he departed the role of Ireland manager, talking about the pride he had felt, the pleasure and privilege it had been, Mick McCarthy is back. First past the post in what never really ultimately amounted to more than a one-horse race, it seems.
Long before it had become completely clear that Martin O'Neill's time was up, the talk was that both John Delaney and McCarthy himself were both open to the prospect of a return. And in the 48 hours after the northerner had actually left by "mutual agreement", there was a growing sense of inevitably about all. When they eventually met on Friday it took little more than a couple of hours to knock out the basis for a deal that has been agreed and will be signed when the lawyers have done their work.
McCarthy takes the job on a contract that will initially cover the European Championships and there is an option to extend for the campaign beyond that. His salary will be more or less what O'Neill started in the job on, about €1.2 million per annum, with significant bonuses built in if he successfully gets the Irish team to the European Championship.
An unveiling is expected to be within the next 48 hours, most likely on Saturday, although the FAI has yet to confirm any actual detail.
The 59-year-old will bring with him Terry Connor, who has worked as his assistant at both Wolves and, more recently, Ipswich over a combined period of nine years. Robbie Keane is all but certain to have a coaching role in the new set-up.
McCarthy will take up the role immediately and will be at next weekend's draw for the European Championship qualifying groups at the Convention Centre in Dublin.
Process and shortlist
As recently as Thursday there has been talk around the FAI of "a process", and "a shortlist" but neither ever really existed in a meaningful sense – it appears that the former was effectively conducted before O'Neill's departure and anyone else considered discarded back then.
Stephen Kenny will take over from Mick McCarthy after Euro 2020
Ken Early: McCarthy the 'safe' choice but is he the right choice?
Can Mick McCarthy's paddle turn Ireland's sinking ship around?
Chris Hughton was perhaps the one genuinely attractive candidate to get to the stage of ruling himself out publicly but another potential target, Brendan Rodgers, was essentially also unavailable due to his contractual situation with the Celtic manager, like the Brighton one, tied into what might well be considered a better job until the summer of 2021.

Dundalk boss Stephen Kenny made it clear that for him no job could compare to the Ireland one and the 47-year-old said that he wanted to be considered and there was substantial public support expressed for him over the course of this week.
In the end, though, the Dubliner seems to have been spoken to, rather than with, about the job and not by Delaney himself, which scarcely suggests his candidacy was taken as seriously in Abbotstown as it was among much of the rest of the football community.
Continued success in Ireland, abroad or in another role with the FAI, may make the coming of his day inevitable but if the association genuinely saw him as the next under-21 manager and planned to sell him the role as potentially being a stepping stone then none of this will have done much to help.
In the end, though, there only ever had looked to be one likely winner. McCarthy enjoyed a good relationship with Delaney and felt he might get the job when it became available five years ago. Long before then, he felt he had some unfinished business with it.
The first time around, he had overseen three campaigns and, relatively new to management, learned as he went. A first campaign that included some tactical uncertainty, a couple of disappointing home draws and one infamous away defeat was improved upon.
Six-year stint
The high point of the six-year stint came on a Saturday afternoon in Lansdowne Road where Jason McAteer scored the goal that secured an unlikely victory over the Netherlands. After two playoff defeats, Ireland beat Iran to qualify for the 2002 World Cup finals in advance of which, of course, things did go entirely well.
Roy Keane went home but Ireland got to the second round before losing on penalties to Spain. McCarthy stuck around for the first couple of qualifying games in the next campaign when he might have been better to allow a new man take over. Both were lost, in any case, and he did depart.
There will be many now who are happy to see him return but even after all this time, his role in Saipan will ensure that the appointment divides opinion. There will be some too who will simply feel that the FAI should have been braver and more imaginative as it sought to shape a brighter future.
The word was, though, that they wanted a safe pair of hands and McCarthy looks to fit that bill. He has a track record of doing well with limited resources at Championship clubs, for the most part thanks to good organisation, a strong tactical sense and a way with players.
He'll need all of those attributes over the course of the campaign to come.
Whether he can significantly improve Ireland's style of play is another thing. He is something of a pragmatist and while his earlier Irish teams played some bright football at times, the current squad is not the match of that one. His immediate task is to make it a better one that it has looked over the past 12 months. That surely must be achievable but qualification for Euro 2020 will be rather more of a challenge, the full extent of which we will not know until next Sunday.

Q: Code Igniter SubDirectory Question I am trying to let the "trac" directory and all of it's subdirectories be accessible through the url http://www.domain.com/trac/
I am working with the codeginiter framework and my directory structure looks like
.htaccess
index.php
system
trac

I can access the abov url fine, but the problem is the scripts and other files contained in trac subdirectories ie: trac/chrome/common/css/trac.css are not accessible and 404.  Here is my .htaccess code. Please help.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^$ index.php [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
RewriteCond $1 !^trac/
RewriteRule ^trac/(.*) /trac/$1

A: You don't even need to mention /trac/ in your .htaccess. That's EXACTLY the point of
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

You're setting two "Rewrite Conditions." The first one says, "As long as the request isn't a file." The second one says "OR As long as the request isn't a directory."
Then
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

Sends everything else to index.php, where CI takes over. And just for the record, my full .htaccess that I use on every project:
Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^system.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

If you're confused about the RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URL} ^system.* line, it only exists so that any browser requests to the /system/ folder is always routed to index.php, and therefor ignored.

A: rewrite rules are executed in order... so try this
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/trac/
RewriteCond $1 !(index\.php/)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

Explanation:
if the uri DOES NOT start with trac
if the uri IS NOT index.php
rewrite url as index.php?/{rest of the url}

A: If you remove the last two lines, it should work.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f checks to ensure that you're not requesting a file. If you are, this condition fails and the rule RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L] is never executed.

SII Seeks Inclusion Of Covovax In CoWIN Portal As Booster Dose For Adults
New Delhi, 18th January 2023: The Serum Institute of India (SII) has written to the Union Health Ministry, seeking the inclusion of its Covid vaccine Covovax as a heterologous booster dose for adults in the Cowin portal. The letter was written by Prakash Kumar Singh, director of government and regulatory affairs at the Serum Institute of India (SII).
A meeting of the National Technical Advisory Group on Immunization (NTAGI) is likely to be held soon to decide on the matter. The Drug Controller General of India (DCGI) approved the market authorization for Covovax on 16th January as a heterologous booster dose for adults. Its approval was based on the recommendations of the Subject Expert Committee (SEC) of the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation.
DCGI approved Covovax for restricted use in emergencies in adults on 28th December 2021, in the 12-17 age group on 9th March 2022, and in children aged seven to 11 years on 28th June last year, subject to certain conditions.
Covovax is manufactured through technology transfer from Novavax. It has been approved for conditional marketing authorization by the European Medicines Agency and was granted an emergency-use list by the World Health Organization (WHO) on 17th December 2021. In August 2020, US-based vaccine manufacturer Novavax Inc announced a license agreement with SII for the development and commercialization of NVX-CoV2373.
71% of financial services firms say they will significantly invest in developing embedded finance products within the next 12 months according to the Global Innovation Report by FIS

Unlike the Galaxy A3 (2017) and Galaxy A5 (2017), the Galaxy A7 (2017) Oreo update didn't debut in Russia. Vietnam was the first market to get the A7 (2017) Oreo update, but it looks like Samsung Russia wasn't too far behind and is also rolling out Android 8.0 Oreo for the largest of Samsung's 2017 A series phones. That's not all. The update is also available in Trinidad and Tobago, which suggests the Galaxy A7 (2017) has the highest priority right now, possibly because it's the best-selling model in the 2017 Galaxy A lineup.
Like all of the Oreo updates released for devices in April, the A7 (2017) update includes the month's security patch. If you own the phone in any of the countries mentioned above, you should be able to grab the update over the air by tapping the Download updates manually in the Software update section of the Settings app. We also have the firmware available in our database if you want to upgrade using a PC; if you're using a PC, the Oreo update should also be available through Samsung Smart Switch in the near future.
Don't forget to tell us how you're liking Oreo if you have updated your Galaxy A7 (2017) or one of the other two Galaxy A (2017) phones by leaving a comment. Getting the update in a different country? Let us know where so other readers can be informed about its availability.

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — Kevin Tucker, who took over the Philadelphia Police Department in the wake of the controversial 1985 "Move" bombing in West Philadelphia, has died.
His family says Tucker died of a brain tumor this morning at a hospice in New Jersey.
Eleven "Move" members, including five children, were killed and 61 row houses were destroyed in a fire after police, directed by commissioner Gregore Sambor, dropped a bomb on the group's house.
Tucker, brought into the department by Mayor Wilson Goode in January 1986 to replace Sambor, is credited with fixing many of the problems that plagued the Philadelphia Police Department in the '70s and '80s, and streamlining its operations.
Tucker served as head of the police department until resigning in 1988, when Mayor Ed Rendell brought in former New York City police commissioner John Timoney.
Tucker, who came from the ranks of the US Secret Service, where he was head of the Philadelphia office, was credited with bringing efficiency to the department and eliminating corruption in the ranks.
Prior to his arrival, more than 30 ranking officers had been convicted between 1982 and 1986 of corruption and extorting money from brothels and illegal gambling operations.
A viewing for Tucker will take place Thursday, 2-4pm and 6-9pm, at the Bradley Funeral Home on Route 73 in Marlton, NJ. A funeral mass will take place Friday at 10:30am at St. Mary of the Lakes Church, on Jackson Road in Medford.


This article from a few days ago in the San Diego Union Tribune highlights an interesting phenomenon from this first post-Olympic month.
Shawn Johnson was in town for the filming of "Frosted Pink with a Twist," a charity event I described in a previous post, and the Union-Tribune spoke to her between appearances at 5 local T.V. stations. Though she didn't get the Wheaties box, Johnson has major deals with Coca-Cola, McDonald's and adidas, among others.
It's easy to forget that Johnson didn't win the individual all-around gold medal in Beijing (Liukin did) and that her lone gold came in the balance beam (she won silvers in team, all-around and floor exercise). But Johnson's magnetic appeal is a lesson in Marketing 101: that what you win is sometimes less important than what you represent, and a freckled kid from America's heartland with an infectious smile is a hot commodity.
This comes as no surprise. Johnson has an infectious smile and a tremendously upbeat personality. Liukin is graceful and beautiful, obviously, but in an almost forbidding way. Johnson simply looks more like Mary Lou.
Four years ago, [Carly] Patterson seemed well-placed to become America's New Sweetheart. As soon as Patterson was in position to win that gold, journalists swarmed [Mary Lou] Retton to ask if this blond-haired Texan would finally push her into the history books. "I hope so," Retton replied. "It's time for someone to take my place." It didn't happen.
The same is true of Liukin. She's pleasant when she's on talk shows, but she doesn't draw in all populations in the crowd the same way Johnson does.
So far, this issue may be a little superficial. But then we have to think about what this means for the gymnasts, and, namely, what they can do with their fame. Some athletes, like Michelle Kwan, have become role models (and, in her case, political appointees) while others, especially those who have tried to use their athletic careers to pursue careers in entertainment, have fallen from the spotlight very quickly.
We like capitalism in this country, but, at least in our Olympic athletes (can't say the same for professional athletes in the NBA, etc.), we want true role models too. So far, I've been most impressed with Chellsie Memmel's decision to start a literacy campaign called There's More Than One Way to Flip, which supports literacy in the greater Milwaukee area. I hope there's more to come from the other team members.
1 Response to "Who is the real next Mary Lou?"
She's infectious, but sans AA gold, it will not happen for her.


The impending loss of left tackle Branden Albert already is being felt on the Dolphins.
Receiver Jarvis Landry, who joined Albert at the Pro Bowl a year ago, said Thursday night that he's hoping for the best for a veteran teammate he looks up to.
The Dolphins are in trade discussions with an unspecified team regarding Albert. If a deal can be arranged, the Dolphins likely would add a lower-round draft pick and Albert's new team can secure his rights before he hits the open market.
If no agreement is reached, Albert will be released. Either way, the matter is expected to be resolved in the next day or so.
RELATED: DOLPHINS HAVE MONEY TO SPEND, SO WHAT NEXT?
Albert, 32, is said to want to go to a contender to finish his career and the Dolphins hope to be able to grant that wish.
The Dolphins announced earlier Thursday they were releasing defensive end Mario Williams, defensive tackle Earl Mitchell and cornerback Ifo Ekpre-Olomu. The four departures represent $20.1 million in cap savings. That can help in several ways, including attracting players in free agency, retaining free agents such as receiver Kenny Stills and defensive end Andre Branch but also extending the contracts of 2015 co-MVPs Landry and safety Reshad Jones a year before they hit the open market.
Landry coincidentally was appearing at a BankUnited celebration in the team's locker room at Hard Rock Stadium in honor of North Miami Beach Senior High student Ali Choueiki, winner of $1,000 in an essay contest on financial literacy.
In the winning essay, Landry said, Choueiki talked about using savings, if need be, to pay his way through Marist College, alma mater of Dolphins defensive end Terrence Fede. Landry said, "I might have to make that connection" between Fede and Choueiki.
Landry has made multiple appearances for BankUnited regarding financial literacy, saying he wished that when he was younger he had a role model such as a pro athlete "to stress the importance of saving and financial literacy.


A Bondurant farmer has lost tens of thousands of bees after a trio of hives housed near Ankeny were vandalized, leaving colonies exposed to the rain.
An Iowa farmer has lost tens of thousands of bees and pounds of honey after his hives in Ankeny were vandalized with cinder blocks and bricks, leaving the colonies exposed to rain that has blanketed central Iowa in recent days.
Jake Knutson, owner of Grateful Acres Farm, discovered Monday that three of the farm's strongest hives housed near the Ankeny airport were damaged sometime last week.
Someone removed straps securing the hives and then hit the wooden box hives with logs, cinder blocks and bricks, knocking off the tops.
"It looked like kids to me, but you never know," Knutson said.
As the hives lay exposed, bees from other farms were able to steal an estimated 150 pounds of honey stored inside. Knutson said each hive can house up to 60,000 bees. Most of the insects perished in the rain.
It's not the first time Iowa beehives have been the target of vandalism.
Last winter, 500,000 honeybees died in Sioux City after two boys, ages 12 and 13, mangled 50 hives owned by Justin and Tori Englehardt.
The incident made headlines worldwide as scientists and apiarists try to slow declining bee populations. A 2017 report from the Center for Biological Diversity found that more than half of 1,400 bee species are on the decline and nearly a quarter are at risk of extinction, according to the report.
Iowa has as many as 4,500 beekeepers statewide, up from a decade ago when there may have been fewer than 3,000, state apiarist Andrew Joseph told the Register last winter.
Most Iowa beekeepers are hobbyists like Knutson.
He and girlfriend Kelsie Searcy began raising bees two years ago. They have 11 hives. Most are located on Grateful Acres Farm in Bondurant, where they also grow organic produce and hosts events.
"We're trying to grow our operation, but stuff like this sets us back a little bit," he said.
Knutson estimates the damages amount to around $400 or $500.
The bigger loss is the time and effort that went into establishing the hives and building up the genetics of the bees to withstand Iowa winters, he said.
He did not initially report the vandalism to police Monday because he didn't want children to end up with criminal charges. But Knutson said that changed Wednesday when he re-visited the hives to find one of the hives had been knocked over again, and another was teetering on its stand.
"They don't get a pass anymore," he said on Wednesday afternoon. "I did file a police report."
Knutson wrote about the incident in a Facebook post Monday that's been shared more than 2,000 times and garnered more than 700 comments. He said he's been overwhelmed with kind comments and offers for assistance.
He plans to salvage as many bees as he can, then rebuild and restock the hives for next year.


Virtue Paintball Oled SLG Upgrade Board Best Price Free Ship! – Man Store Inc.
Virtue Paintball Oled SLG Upgrade Board Best Price Free Ship!
The Virtue OLED board redefines the way you use your paintball gun. Quad-Layer PCB technology increases the hardware capacity of the OLED Board offering increased performance, consistency, and adjustability.
• Power Efficient Organic Display – Organic Light Emitting Diode with clear text display, increased performance resulting from faster refresh rates that do not slow down processing power, and maximum power efficiency because a battery-draining back light is not needed.
• Lube Monitor – New hardware components on the OLED board now offer Maintenance Monitoring. Our patent pending Maintenance Monitor tracks your gun's bolt cycles and tells you when it is time to lubricate the internals. Most players are aware that lack of lubrication is bad for their gun and for performance. But most are not aware that too much lubrication is also bad on performance, causing erratic velocity consistency, leaks, and decreased accuracy. Virtue OLED takes the guess work out of when it's time to lube your gun! Each bar of Lube Monitor represents 3,000 shots. When you reach 9,000 bolt cycles movements measured through the gun's eyes, the gun will display "Lube Me". After lubing your gun, tap the power button 5 times during the boot screen to reset the maintenance monitor back to zero.
• Live ROF Meter – Live Rate of Fire Meter visibly tracks your Rate of Fire as you shoot.
• Zero Power Drain – Unlike competing boards, Virtue OLED hardware has virtually Zero battery drain. Other boards will have a dead or dying battery after weeks of inactivity, while Virtue OLED boards will still have a fresh battery.
• Enhanced Processor Timers – Additional hardware components allow for unparalleled Dwell, Debounce and Rate of Fire accuracy and consistency down to the tenth BPS or Dwell and Debounce adjustments to the tenth Millisecond.
• Audible Speaker – Instant audible confirmation of important status changes, or for use during game-improving drill modes. Can be turned on or off in programming menu.
• 10 Million Operations Per Second – Lightning fast processor speeds allow for increased performance, while providing real time updates on gun status at the same time.
• PC to USB Upgradeable – Future software upgrades from your home computer with a USB/Serial Adapter (sold separately).
Simple. Easy. Useable As gun's get more complex, and features become more advanced, no one wants to read a huge manual just to figure out how to setup their gun. Virtue OLED is packed with features but underwent months of testing so it is easier and more intuitive than ever.
• Four Player Profiles – Four custom Player Profiles. Default profiles are: NPPL, PSP, NXL, and Millennium which instantly configures your gun for each league's rules. However, changes can be made and saved for each profile to whatever custom settings you prefer. Select Profile from the programming menu you want to modify and then proceed to make changes to your gun's settings: Firing Mode, Rate of Fire, Debounce, Dwell, Post Breakout Mode, Ramp adjustments, etc. These settings will be saved for this Profile so your gun will remember them every time you access that particular Profile in the future.
• Training Mode – Practice to improve your rate of fire in Semi Auto with the help of a Real-Time Rate of Fire Indicator.
• Adjustable Trigger Sensitivity – A new setting, in addition to your Debounce setting. As you shoot faster, processing power devoted to monitoring the trigger is increased allowing the gun to be more responsive.
• Status Prompts – OLED screen instantly displays the status of your gun: "Lube Me", "Eye Malfunction". "Eyes Off", "Loaded" and "Reload".
• New Adjustable Settings – Over 20 adjustable settings including Dwell, Anti-Mechanical Bounce, Eye Malfunction Rate of Fire; Debounce, Adjustable Trigger Sensitivity, Firing Mode, Player Profiles, Adjustable Trigger Sensitivity, Eye Delay, Anti Breech Bounce, Anti Bolt Stick, Post Breakout Mode, Ramp Activation Speed, Ramp Percentage, Ramp Shot Count, Ramp Reset Time, Burst Shots, Auto Shutdown Time, Audio, Closing Dwell (Mini), Eye Mode (Shocker).
• Game Timer – Adjustable at anytime as long as you have the timer enabled. Simply tap the power button twice and you can now make changes to the timer using the trigger. No need to enter the programming menu, now you can set the timer on the fly in seconds just before a game!
Virtue OLED Drills improve your game using similar techniques employed by Pro Paintball Players and Olympic Athletes alike – continual improvement through building muscle memory. Each Drill is designed to accomplish a small, short task. It's not like scrimmaging an entire game, but rather breaking down the core components of playing paintball and REPEATIDLY Drilling them over-and-over again until your reaction time improves as your muscle memory builds up.
As your reaction time improves, your game will improve also. Using Virtue OLED Drills, keep two things in mind. Keep track of your top time, and always strive to beat it. And don't cheat in order to get a faster time — you'll only be cheating yourself. Once you have mastered OLED's 8 Drills, think about how you could make your own Drill. There are hundreds of Drills you can create using the current "Drill Mode programs".
• Laning Drill – Double tap the power button with this drill displayed, and the gun will randomly beep after waiting 5-9 seconds. At the beep, bring your gun up to firing position and fire 10 shots. Once you have fired 10 shots, the gun will beep and tell you how long it took to get into position and fire of your first 10 shot stream.
• 30 Second Breakout Drill – Line up your team to practice your opening breakout and first 30 seconds of the game against an opposing team. Double tap the power button with this drill displayed, and the gun will beep after waiting 5 seconds. On the beep, everyone should Breakout, shoot their lanes, etc. After 30 Seconds the Drill will end with a Loud beep. Repeat this drill several times to practice various Breakouts – the first 30 seconds of a game are sometimes the most important!
• Gun Up Drill – Double tap the power button with this drill displayed, and the gun will randomly beep after waiting 5-9 seconds. At the beep, bring your gun up to firing position and fire 1 shot. Once you have fired 1 shot, the gun will beep and tell you how long it took to get into position and fire off your first shot.
• Reload Practice Drill – With no paint in your gun or hopper, have a full pod in your harness. The gun will randomly beep after waiting 5-9 seconds. When you hear the gun beep, grab your pod, pour it into your loader, and fire 1 shot. Once you have fired 1 shot, the gun will beep and tell you how long it took you to reload and get into firing position.
• Reload Monitor Drill – Set your gun to Reload Monitor Drill and go play paintball. Whenever the eyes see each other (no ball in breach, hopper empty) for more then half a second, the timer on the board will start counting from 0 up to 7 seconds. If you go 7 seconds without reloading and shooting a ball, the gun will beep, letting you know you are too slow.
• Front Player Drill – Double tap the power button with this drill displayed, and the gun will randomly beep after waiting 5-9 seconds. When you hear the gun beep, run as fast as you can to your starting bunker, dive or slide and fire 1 shot. Once you have fired 1 shot, the gun will beep and tell you how long it took to get into position and fire off your first shot.
• "Ollie Lang" 3-Shot-Snap-Shot Drill – Double tap the power button with this drill displayed, and the gun will randomly beep after waiting 5-9 seconds. When you hear the beep, come out of your bunker, and fire 1 shot at a target. The gun will then randomly beep again after waiting 3 to 5 seconds. When you hear the second beep, come out of your bunker and fire 1 shot. The gun will then randomly beep a third time after waiting 2 to 5 seconds. When you hear the third beep, come out of your bunker and fire 1 shot. The screen will then show you the total time it took from the 3 beeps to the 3 shots. Remember your top score and try to beat it.
• "Russian Legion" Endurance 50 Shot Drill – Double tap the power button with this drill displayed, and the gun will randomly beep after waiting 5-9 seconds. Run from your spot to the other team's flag station, while continuously shooting at a target in the opposing teams flag station. Once you have fired 50 shots, the gun will beep and tells you how long it took for you to complete the run. This drill improves running and shooting accurately, speed, endurance, and gets you used to running with your gun.
• Training Mode – Enter Training Mode as a separate Firing Mode through the Programming Menu. Practice to improve your Semi Auto Rate of Fire with live feed back from the OLED display. Dwell is bottomed out to reduce noise and wear on the gun, and the eyes will not allow the gun to shoot if a ball is present.
• Boot Loader Software – Fail safe boot loader software allows download of computer updates without the risk of destroying your board.
• Factory Reset – Fail safe reset allows you to quickly reset your board to Factory Defaults.
• Forced Shot – Allows the gun to be fired with no ball in the breach if eyes are enabled by holding in the trigger for 1 second.
• Tournament Lock – Lock all settings using a dip switch to make your gun tournament legal.
• Saved Settings – All settings stored in non-volatile memory so they are not lost when the battery is removed.
• Instant-On – Marker is on and ready to fire instantly, even while pre-boot and boot screens are showing.
•Idle Auto-Shutdown – After 10 minutes of inactivity your gun will turn off automatically to save battery life. This setting is adjustable.
• Burst Mode – 2-5 shots per trigger pull.
Create Virtually ANY MODE you desire. This "One Mode" can create any firing mode. Create a truly custom mode based on 5 Programming Settings: Ramp Activation Speed, Ramp Percentage, Ramp Initiation, Ramp Rest Time, and Max Rate of Fire. Set the Ramp Initiation Shot Count to control how many purely semi only shots you want at the start of your string before the gun starts ramping (1-10). Once you reach the "Ramp Activation Speed" the marker will increase the rate of fire by your "Ramp Percentage" setting, up to your "Max Rate of Fire". And finally, the Ramp Reset Time determines how long the ramping will last(in seconds) after you are no longer sustaining the Activation Speed.

HTML5 is the next major revision of the HTML standard, currently under development by the W3C Group (The World Wide Web Consortium). HTML5 is a flexible, feature-rich and scalable to different devices. It enables development of animations and streaming of video for cross-device platforms (such as animations playing on iPhones and iPads and other devices without a Flash player). HTML5 development typically takes place in conjunction of a collection of new Web technologies such as CSS3 and AJAX. Interaria is proficient in these technologies and in the new developing HTML5 animation program, Adobe Edge, which creates visual HTML5 animations.
Another key feature of HTML5 is its "built in" ability to play media (audio and video) without any needs of external media player plug-ins. Effectively, a web developer can just drop a media file to the page, and then a browser that supports HTML5 (such as Chrome) knows what to do with the file.
For instance, by utilizing HTML5 technology a user may drag online store items to a shopping cart, organize lists of objects in a visual manner, and enjoy different types of online board games that simulate real life playing situations. For uploading images and sending attachments HTML5 is really neat: imagine uploading images from your desktop by simply dragging them to the web page without the need to click buttons such as "browse" and "upload". HTML5 is turning the user experience from operational to user-intuitive, softening the lines between tangible and virtual.
HTML5 has been widely talked and debated about in the context of developing mobile apps. The offline playing and local storage capabilities of HTML5 do create an alternative technology solution for native iOS and Android app development. Many enterprise apps and consumer database apps that do not require specific mobile phone features and resources to function optimally can be developed on HTML5 mode, hence avoiding the "walled garden" of iOS app libraries and their fee structure.

Effects of Umifenovir in Patients Hospitalized with Moderate to Severe COVID-19

Among patients hospitalized with moderate to severe COVID-19, treatment with umifenovir in combination with other drugs did not significantly decrease time to clinical improvement (TTCI) or mortality, according to study results published in International Immunopharmacology.
In this single-center, open-label, randomized clinical trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT04350684) conducted in Tehran, Iran, researchers assessed the effectiveness of umifenovir in combination with other drugs for the treatment of patients hospitalized with moderate or severe COVID-19. Patients were randomly assigned in a 1:1 fashion to either the control group or intervention group. Patients in the control group received treatment with lopinavir/ritonavir (400 mg/100 mg) twice daily for 10 to 14 days in combination with a single dose of hydroxychloroquine (400 mg) and subcutaneous interferon-β1a (44 mcg
) on days 1, 3, and 5. The patients in the intervention group received the same treatment regimen as the control group with the addition of umifenovir (200 mg) 3 times daily for 7 days.
The primary outcome was TTCI based on 2-point improvement on a 7-category ordinal scale at day 21; secondary outcome was mortality at day 21.
The intention-to-treat analysis included 101 patients: 50 were in the control group and 51 were in the intervention group. At baseline, demographic and clinical characteristics were similar between the 2 groups. The mean patient age was 61.2 years, and 56.4% were men.
At day 21, TTCI did not significantly differ between the control and intervention groups (median, 7 days and 9 days, respectively; hazard ratio, 0.75; 95% CI, 0.45-1.23; P =.25). In-hospital mortality also was not statistically significantly different between the control and intervention groups (38.0% and 33.3%, respectively; P =.62).
In addition, there was no difference in mortality rates among patients who entered the study either 7 days prior vs 7 days after symptom onset, and the need for invasive mechanical ventilation was similar between the 2 groups.
With the exception of an increased risk for lymphopenia among patients in the control group, there were no significant safety differences between the 2 groups.
Because of increased concentrations of liver enzymes, 20 patients in the control group and 18 in the intervention group were unable to complete the treatment course.
Umifenovir in combination with other drugs was not "effective in shortening the duration of SARS-CoV-2 in severe patients" or "improving the prognosis in non-[intensive care unit] patients," the researchers concluded.

A Catedral de Nossa Senhora das Dores é um templo religioso católico localizado no município brasileiro de Guaxupé, no Sul do estado de Minas Gerais. Foi inaugurada em 1960 e deste de então é a sé episcopal da Diocese de Guaxupé.

Teve sua construção iniciada em 1943, por iniciativa do bispo Dom Hugo Bressane de Araújo, que ordenou a demolição da antiga Sé para a edificação de um novo templo. A obra foi concluída por seu sucessor, Dom Inácio João Dal Monte. A Catedral foi dedicada pelo então Núncio Apostólico do Brasil, Dom Armando Lombardi, no dia 19 de março de 1960, na solenidade de São José.

Carrie Fisher's force is with her.
Billie Lourd has paid tribute to her late mother with a touching Instagram post featuring a throwback photo of her as a child. The sweet pic shows her toddler self rocking fuzzy bunny ears in the back of a car while her proud mom smiles for the camera.
The photo's adorable, but it's the quote Lourd shares in the caption that really gets us. Fisher, who died on December 27, famously had a way with words, and she passed that on to her actress daughter. What a lovely legacy.
"If my life weren't funny then it would just be true, and that is unacceptable," the Scream Queens star quotes her writer-actress mother as saying. She cleverly used emojis to spell out Fisher's first name.
"Finding the funny might take a while but I learned from the best and her voice will forever be in my head and in my heart," Lourd added.
Beautiful photo, beautiful sentiment. Mama would be proud.

"The hearing was preceded by a list of thirteen demands to the Museum of Modern Art and demonstrations supporting them which emphasized artists' rights: legal, legislative and loosely political; they were the product of the newly named AWC.
1. The Board of Trustees of all museums should be made up of 1/3 museum staff, 1/3 patrons and 1/3 artists, if it is to continue to act as the policy-making body of the museum. All means should be explored in the interest of a more open-minded and democratic museum. Artworks are a cultural heritage that belong to the people. No minority has the right to control them; therefore, a board of trustees chosen on a financial basis must be eliminated.
2. Admission to all museums should be free at all times and they should be open evenings to accommodate working people.
3. All museums should decentralize to the extent that their activities and services enter Black, Puerto Rican and all other communities. They should support events with which these communities can identify and that they control. They should convert existing structures all over the city into relatively cheap, flexible branch museums or cultural centers that could not carry the stigma of catering only to the wealthier sections of society.
4. A section of all museums under the direction of Black and Puerto Rican artists should be devoted to showing the accomplishments of Black and Puerto Rican artists, particularly in those cities where these (or other) minorities are well represented.
5. Museums should encourage female artists to overcome centuries of damage done to the image of the female as an artist by establishing equal representation of the sexes in exhibitions and museum purchases and on selection committees…" — Lucy Lippard, "The Art Workers' Coalition: Not a History," Studio International, November 1970.

Responsibilities of Day-to-Day Record Keeping
Small Business Owners

Record keeping is an integral part of business operations. It allows you to track important financial transactions, human resources information and other pieces of data that reflect how you run your business. Knowing what information to record and how long to keep the record can be difficult. Business owners and managers who learn the basic responsibilities of day-to-day record keeping can make their lives easier by not getting overwhelmed with a mountain of paperwork later on.
It is important to keep records on a daily basis as well as to ensure that the records are as accurate as possible. Accuracy is one of the primary responsibilities of any business owner or company leader. This is true in all types of organizations, including small business, corporations and charitable organizations. Having a set of records that accurately reflects your day-to-day business affairs is one way to ensure that you meet any legal compliance standards for your industry.
Companies that deal with sensitive financial information or personal customer information have the obligation of ensuring that the information is stored and kept safely from public view. For instance, companies that rely on customers to fill out credit applications to drive business must ensure that any financial or personal information taken in the process of completing the application is stored or disposed of properly. Those using electronic data storage must ensure that database information is stored securely in such as way that it is not prone to being hacked.
Legal compliance also is one of the major responsibilities tied to the daily act of record keeping. For instance, if you offer your employees some type of retirement savings plan, such as a 401(k) plan, you need to have accurate records of the financial contributions made by both you and the employees to ensure that accurate information is provided to the Internal Revenue Service on a yearly basis. Accurate records of safety procedures and incidents must be kept to maintain compliance with the Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
Accurate financial records must be maintained on a daily basis so you can keep your business running as profitably as possible and take advantage of any tax breaks that might result from having detailed records at your disposal. Keeping close track of your receipts from both your spending and incoming business ensures that you have an accurate record of your daily businesses transactions and gives you a more realistic picture of the financial health of your company.

Tabakalera is a centre for contemporary culture that has two purposes: to be a place of production and to offer a programme of public activities. These two aims run through every part of the project which revolves around creating, training based on reflection, and exhibiting. As well as being a place which helps artists and creators turn professional, it also puts together a programme for differents audiences and makes outreach tools available for the general public.
The main goal of Tabakalera's cultural project is to promote the creation of contemporary culture in different creative fields and in all its stages (research, production, exhibition), as well as to generate and share knowledge. With this aim in mind, it focuses on four lines of work that make up its programme: contemporary artistic practices, mediation, digital culture laboratories—Hirikilabs —and Tabakalera's creation library—Ubik.


How long have Flower Essences been used?
For thousands of years Australian Aborigines have used flowers to heal emotional imbalances and physical injuries. Flower Essences were also used in Ancient Egypt, as well as India, Asia, Europe and South America. The earliest European recorded use of Flower Essences was by Abbess Hildegard von Bingen in the twelfth century. This system of healing was rediscovered and popularised eighty years ago by Dr. Edward Bach with his use of English flowering plants. Naturopath, Ian White, a 5th generation Australian herbalist, has further developed this method using plants from all over Australia. Ian grew up in the bush and was taught from an early age the healing power of Australian plants. He has spent many years travelling Australia researching and developing a range of 69 specific Bush Essences.
What's the difference between Flower Essences, Herbal Remedies, Homoeopathy and Essential Oils?
Flower Essences are produced by imprinting a flower's unique vibrational healing signature onto the carrier solution and are used to treat imbalances at a higher level, bringing about emotional and spiritual balance and well being in the whole person. Homoeopathics are prepared in a somewhat similar way to Flower Essences using animal, mineral and herbal bases imprinted upon the solution at varied dilution ratios and are generally recommended for a specific ailment. Homoeopathics are not self adjusting or without side effects and can result in severe aggravations. Also Homoeopathic remedies are easily antedoted by contact with aromatic substances such as perfume, strong mint flavoured toothpaste, garlic, coffee or Essential Oils. According to Gurudas, the author of the book Flower Essences, of the three major forms of vibrational remedies – Flower Essences, Homoeopathic remedies and Gem Elixers – Flower Essences are the best and most effective modality to reach and treat the subtle-energy bodies, along with the meridians. He states that Homoeopathic remedies generally operate on the biomagnetic fields of the body. Some of them can affect the chakras and subtle bodies, but not as effectively as Flower Essences. Gem elixirs act similarly to Flower Essences but not to the same degree, as they do not have the same potency of life force.
Herbal extracts and tinctures are derived after macerating parts of plants and trees i.e. root, bark, leaves in alcohol for a period of time before straining and bottling. Herbal remedies are once again generally recommended for a specific ailment and only work on the physical body, they are far cruder in nature and their chemical constituents can be analyzed and measured.
Essential Oils are extracted from the flower, bark, sap and leaves of plants and are aromatic /scented residues that work via the olfactory sense. Essential Oils are far less specific in addressing emotional imbalances. Flower Essences can be effectively used in conjunction with all of these other modalities.
How do you prepare a dose bottle?
Seven drops of stock are added to a bottle up to 30 millilitres (or 1 ounce) in size, that is filled with a mixture of two thirds (2/3) purified water and one third (1/3) brandy. This is called a "dose" bottle and the recommended dose is seven drops under the tongue on rising and retiring for two to four weeks. Several essences can be combined in the one bottle but it is generally suggested that the number of Essences combined be limited to a maximum of four or five and all address the same theme.
How do I choose an Essence?
There are many ways in which you can choose an essence. You could simply read through the information on each of the individual essences and decide which ones are most appropriate. However, this can overwhelm some people and they could feel that they need them all! To drastically narrow down the number of essences that you are considering ask yourself the following questions – what do I most want in my life? or what is the major issue that I am working through at the moment? Then simply choose the appropriate Bush Essences. Alternatively you could look through the Flower Insight Cards and choose those which most appeal to you (limiting them to no more than 3) and also include any card that you have an aversion to. Invariably, using this technique, you will choose Essences that will address your most pertinent issues. These Essences can then be mixed together in a dosage bottle. Other less commonly used methods to determine the choice of a remedy include: Dowsing • Kinesiology • Numerology • Using your Intuition • Working with a Flower Essence practitioner.
Can I take more than one Essence at a time?
It is far more effective to focus on just one issue and one dosage bottle, at a time, otherwise the results can be very scattered as they have no main focus to address. You can, however, use a remedy for example Emergency Essence in a one off acute situation whilst still taking another remedy over the standard two or four week period.
There is absolutely no detriment in using the mists and creams while also taking a Bush Essence dosage drops orally. You can use more than one mist or cream on the same day.
Where can I find details about ordering, payment (e.g. by credit card), freight, shipping or returning goods?
What is the difference between the Australian Bush Flower Essences, the White Light Essences and the Light Frequency Essences?
The Light Frequency Essences work at the level of the Divine Essence, also referred to as the Individualised Flame or Higher Self.
When is my credit card charged and how can I request Express delivery?
At the time of ordering, a pre authorisation payment for the total of goods ordered will be set aside on your bank account and this will remain 'pending' until the order is dispatched to you; at this time the funds will be debited from your account. If your order is cancelled, the pre authorisation payment will 'drop off' in a few days or according to your banking institution's protocols.
If you have any specific requirements for your order please call the orders department on 61-2-9450.1388 Monday - Friday (9am-5pm).
While we do endeavour to process all customer orders as soon as possible after receipt (within office hours), unexpected delays may sometimes occur.
