Primary therapy for this syndrome should be addressed to obliterate the PA and not. Donor site selection is partly dependent on the expected volume of available bone, but reports of cancellous bone volumes at each of these sites are variable. The goal of this study was to compare the volumes of cancellous bone harvested from donor sites within the same cadaver. Within each of 10 fresh frozen cadavers, cancellous bone was harvested from 3 donor sites-anterior iliac crest, posterior iliac crest, and proximal tibia-using established surgical techniques. Mean compressed cancellous bone volumes from the 3 donor sites were compared among cadavers. Within each cadaver, the 3 donor sites were given a volume rank score from 1 (least volume) to 3 (most volume). Within individual cadaver skeletons, the proximal tibia was most likely to yield the largest cancellous volume, whereas the anterior iliac crest was most likely to yield the smallest cancellous volume. Although the proximal tibia contains relatively large volumes of cancellous bone, further investigation is required to determine how much cancellous bone can. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the early results of aggressive surgical approach to FFT. During the period 2005-2008 years FFT was diagnosed in 13 patients. He was found to have superficial vein thrombophlebitis (SVT) of the left great saphenous vein extending from the knee to within approximately 1. cm of the saphenofemoral junction. There is paucity in the literature regarding the management of SVT, particularly in actively training athletes.
I'm so used to watching actors approaching 30 play teenagers that it took me completely by surprise. Too much information here wouldn't be helpful to viewers new to the franchise. Suffice it to say that "Sleepaway Camp" grows on you and, yes, the ending is still capable of shocking viewers. The movie is enhanced by being shot in English and Yugoslavian locations, befitting a Hammer Studio production. It was made for theatrical release overseas, but as a made-for-TV presentation in the U. . Its first airing was pre-empted by a news conference announcing the resignation of Vice President Spiro Agnew, so it was postponed until February, 1974. In fact, as TV movies go, "Dracula" is extremely well made and quite effective in scares department. It has been transferred and restored in 2K from the original 35mm camera negative. In its heyday, the "oaters" could do no wrong, even when pitted against each other on the prime-time grid. Of course, when I say "do no wrong," I'm not implying that Native Americans were slighted on a weekly basis and the feats of characters based on actual people weren't embellished beyond recognition. They were. The writers and producers of some shows, however, did attempt to level the playing field by casting Indians to play Indians and accurately depicting their culture and tribal identity.
��. Every prior season of the show began airing in April except for Season 3, which had its premiere on March 31 back in 2013. Winter has arrived, and that means "Game of Thrones" needs more snow — and we're not talking about Jon. That delayed shooting schedule, then required a delayed premiere date for this season. So Tywin's total hatred for the dude has deeper motivations than just that Joanna died giving birth to him or that he's a dwarf. We know also that Jon Snow is Rhaegar and Lyanna's kid, and there's reason to believe the kidnapping was not actually a kidnapping. But what if also Rhaegar was actually married to Lyanna. He noted that he annulled Rhaegar's marriage, and then married him to someone else. As fans expected, that sounds like Rhaegar's marriage to Elia Martell was annulled, and he was married to Lyanna -- which would make Jon Snow Rhaegar's trueborn son and heir. And even Melisandre believes it -- though only after years of claiming it was Stannis and accidentally leading him to ruin. Given that some think the last hero is the Westerosi version of the Azor Ahai myth, this idea would add some twists to the Night King as a character. One eagle-eyed Redditor put together a theory suggesting that Davos fulfills at least a good chunk of the prophecy. A big part comes from the argument that it's Davos, and not Melisandre, who revives Jon Snow.

Keep an eye peeled for a video, which is sure to drop soon. Based on a teaser Rita posted on Twitter, it looks like a vibrant affair. Learning that he teamed up with Mayer is not a shocker worthy of cardiac arrest, but it's definitely a surprise. It doesn't even sound any different from your average John Mayer song: a brisk and moody little soft-rock ditty with slightly funkier guitar flourishes than usual. I guess when the bridge hits there's a little extra rhythmic action, too, but mostly this would fit right in on The Search For Everything, Mayer's attempt at a pop comeback from a year ago. If you dig the guy's music, you will probably dig this too, but don't expect it to change any haters' minds. Marem Ladson sat in a stool with her guitar and since the first minute she started singing her songs I immediately fell in love with her sound. Marem has a profound and unique style, like an old folky soul, that doesn't correspond to her age at all. I just couldn't stop thinking how good and special she was. I believed I was in front of a very talented new artist that deserved to be widely known. This is why I'm so happy that I got her to answer some questions for the blog. I am an 18 year old defined by the coming-together of American and Spanish roots. I'm a half time student of International Relations, since I've always been interested in different areas like politics, history and cultures of the world, and a full time singer songwriter, because it is the way I express myself.
While Kourtney Kardashian is getting a lot of flak for how she's raising her children, Scott Disick was heavily criticized for a picture he posted on Instagram in a Batman costume. A fan said that his Batman gear looked like a Halloween costume and others called it a "party outfit. �� Another fan said that Disick was too skinny to be a Batman. Perhaps, Scott isn' t happy about the fact that Kourtney has moved on. It's been reported that Scott Disick is going as far as to sabotage Kourtney's relationship with Bendjima. Scott Disick, meanwhile, hasn' t found a stable relationship and is often seen with multiple women. He was recently rumored to be going around with Bella Thorne but has denied there is anything serious between the alleged couple. Bella, too, has gone on to say that she was wasn' t with Scott Disick "sexually, " People has reported. Do you think Kourtney Kardashian should be mom-shamed. Do you think Scott Disick and Kourtney should be back together. Firefighters attacked the blaze by air and foot with the hope of containing it to the wilderness west of Wawona, according to park fire officials. Park rangers closed the Chilnualna Falls Trail, where a large plume of smoke could be seen rising from the mountainous region, fire officials said. It was the 14th time the pair worked together and Romine had caught 11 of Montgomery's past 12 starts.

Visualize This: Strategic Planning - Part 2
about a 3 minute read...
You're not just collecting data. Thoughtexchange allows you to dig into the process to find meaningful information that is specific, descriptive, and recommends a course of action. It is the process of turning data into information that schools don't have the capacity to do.
– Quintin Shepherd, Superintendent, Linn-Marr Community School District
In Part 1 of Visualize This: Strategic Planning we discussed how Thoughtexchange's data visualizations can identify and clarify the successful aspects of a strategic plan. This week, we'll look at how data visualization can help identify areas that need improvement.
The Individual thoughts collected in a Thoughtexchange provide specific and descriptive insight into the issues that are most important to the community. They also represent the true, unedited voice of the community because each participant is able to share his or her thoughts in his or her own words. Once the community assigns value to the thoughts that resonate most, and the thoughts are organized into themes, a road map of community priorities and viable courses of action emerge.
Data visualization, in turn, reveals additional patterns, trends and correlations. For example, visualizations can provide insight into how a plan is performing, where gaps between community and leadership priorities exist, and what key areas of a strategic plan need updating.
The three questions below help highlight areas of misalignment. Here's how data visualizations can help identify solutions:
What areas need improvement?
Visualizing the community's concerns can reveal critical pieces that must be addressed in the upcoming version of your strategic plan. Looking at the "Summary of Themes", we see that a lot of thoughts were submitted on the topic of "Learning Environment".
Looking at this topic specifically, and in particular the "Class Size" and "Differentiated Instruction" bars, we see that dramatically more stars were assigned to thoughts that talked about concerns than to thoughts that were appreciative.
This means that "Class Size" and "Differentiated Instruction" are perceived as relatively problematic areas that should be investigated sooner rather than later.
What could drive positive change?
In many cases, there is at least some level of appreciation around even the most concerning areas that emerge.
Looking at the individual thoughts reveals possible solutions. For example, while "Differentiated Instruction" was an area of concern, innovative opportunities in recess and playtime were appreciated within this theme, as was providing more opportunities for enrichment. Focusing on these two initiatives and expanding on them district wide could potentially help improve this issue.
Are there gaps in communication?
Communication gaps or misaligned priorities can manifest in two ways. Either the community generates very little or no discussion around certain key areas within a district's strategic plan, or new priorities of extreme importance to the community emerge that were never previously addressed.
In the former case we will see areas of the strategic plan show minimal levels of conversation:
For instance in the case above we can see the community is not expressing a lot of thoughts around Goals 1-3, 8 or 10 of the strategic plan. Assuming these are important areas to the school leadership or direction of the district in general, it might be worth investigating whether further communication or clarification of these areas would assist in greater understanding or discussion.
In the latter case, additional, unexpected pillars can point to new and important areas of consideration. For instance, in the example above, "School Environment and Stakeholder Engagement" emerged as a new and important issue for the community that had not been addressed in previous versions of the district's strategic plan.
How have you bridged communications gap in the past? What strategies have you used to correct areas of misalignments?
Read Part 1 of Visualize This: Strategic Planning to learn how Thoughtexchange's data visualizations can identify and clarify the successful aspects of a strategic plan.

The Pandemic and the Pen: where next for Fashion Journalism?
Director of Postgraduate and Professional Programmes, Johannes Reponen is a scholar, critic and consultant who specialises in communication, media and writing. Sitting as the course leader for Masters programmes including MA Fashion Media Strategy, MA Fashion Journalism and MA Creative Direction, Johannes is currently completing his doctoral research degree in fashion media. Exploring the future of fashion journalism and the resulting impact of the pandemic, he discusses the changing media landscape and the innovations of a post-pandemic era.
How the pandemic impacted the fashion industry
Lockdown was not good for fashion and there's no reason to suppose the repeat to which we appear to be heading inexorably will be any better. If you're stuck at home with nobody to impress there's not a lot of incentive to dress up. Certainly, there have been people on social media making a show of looking good to maintain a veneer of good cheer (although enthusiasm for such "keep your chin up" levity appears to have waned) and for some the crisis has acted as a well spring for creativity in creating content. The magazines have struggled bravely to make a feature of this, for example in British Vogue, Let KiKi Layne's Virtual Press Tour Give You A New Zest For Zoom Styling tells how the actress turned to her stylists for inspiration for what to wear in interviews promoting her latest blockbuster movie. But what then does the future hold for fashion journalism in a post-coronavirus world?
Fashion PR companies are necessarily dormant as long-planned shoots cannot take place in the normal way. It has been fascinating to see with what the magazine sector has filled its pages as its last pieces of new content (most work three or four months in advance) have been used up. The crisis has already led to the fashion media reclaiming the role of expert. This is no easy feat at a time when there are already at least a hundred YouTube videos available explaining "How to" do just about anything of which a human is capable.
A post shared by British Vogue (@britishvogue)
The rise of rapid content creation
However, there are signs that sector expertise still adds value. People are looking for advice on the most mundane things like how to cook the simplest dishes. Interest has been reawakened in jigsaw puzzles, bread making and stamp collecting, all of which have seen their markets go through the roof as so many people have so much time on their hands but are wary about spending their money. So too for fashion media. Content created is content consumed. It gives hope for a better, albeit changed, future. There's something very forties about this return to the even older concept of self-help or make do and mend which filled a huge proportion of the pages of fashion magazines at the time. Where the focus was so recently on trends, now it is on these kinds of practical advice. With this change comes the opportunity to be seen once more as a fount of wisdom rather than a disseminator of other people's (designers') ideas. Reflection is part of the job in the time of Corona.
Condé Nast's Bon Appétit YouTube channel has been a particular beneficiary of this trend. Over the last two years subscriptions have grown from 34,000 to more than 1 million. In the same period, the number of monthly unique viewers for the videos on its website grew by nearly 2.5 million. Today the channel has almost six million subscribers and videos for making posh pork chops or gorgeous garlic ginger paste (hardly a staple) have been watched millions of times, some at rates of tens of thousands of views per hour.
The future of fashion shows
The route to success in this sober and sensible age will be as far as imaginable from the post-war era. Publishers will need to be alive to the reach provided by a range of media. A mix of print and digital, podcasts and videos, will be the only way to produce a 360 degree offering for consumers. There will be a great need to assess the right mix in the printed, digital and face-to-face environments.
The fashion industry itself is associated by definition with ideas of newness so it's easy to think of it as cutting edge. In reality parts of the industry are but parts are not. Take the example of fashion shows. Four times a year the industry has traditionally trekked all round the world to visit these events which can last about one minute and cost up to a million pounds. If the fears of global recession are realised, these occasions, already seen as contrary to concepts of sustainability, may also become simply too expensive to continue with. Shows long-planned for summer and autumn 2020 have either been completely lost or dramatically reconfigured to encompass all the requirements for social distancing and the use of PPE. We may discover that such occasions are not as critical to the industry as we thought and if so the new digital practices emerging by necessity may, like non-returnable genies from an elegant bottle, become the norm.
On the other hand fashion shows enable the sort of tacit exchange of introductions, growth in networks, the reassurance of contact. I confidently predict in the post-Corona world, the more sustainably conscious environment into which we will emerge will see an exciting set of innovations in this area. The first hint of this came early in lockdown from Gucci as reported in The Guardian where the company declared Fashion week "is over." Creative Director, Alessandro Michele, says the number of annual shows will be cut from five to two and crucially, they will no longer be associated with particular seasons. Michele is quoted as saying in relation to the traditional spring/summer, autumn/winter collections, "I think these are stale and underfed words … clothes should have a longer life than that which these words attribute to them." Gucci will now spotlight these new "seasonless" collections twice a year in what is potentially one of the biggest changes in industry attitudes brought about by the pandemic.
Understanding the needs of future consumers
The great unknown is what will be the prevailing mood of consumers in the long term. Latest retail figures from the Monthly Business Survey of the Office for National Statistics suggest clothing, textiles and footwear is the hardest hit sector of the retail economy. Even though we're now allowed back into shops, sales are down in store by almost sixteen percent compared with February and thirty percent year on year. Even when online transactions are taken into account there has been a substantial hit to the industry. Will the passion for thrift prevail or will we want to party like it's 1920, as was the reaction to the ravages of the First World War and Spanish Flu? While that era gave birth to the glitz and glamour of the flappers and the talkies, the crash of 2008 saw a return to classics and a preponderance of navy, white and beige. Judging that public mood will be vital.
The American social reformer Arthur Powell Davies received widespread public support when he railed against Dior's New Look in 1947. "They [long skirts] are immoral," he thundered, "because they waste the material that is desperately needed by the world's suffering people." We may find it hard to believe that such sober reflection could have much impact in 2020, but what fashion house today could withstand the ire of Greta Thunberg or that of an army of celebrity influencers? Producing collections will be one thing. Gauging the right way to put them in front of consumers and ensuring they approve will be quite another matter. The drive to do so is what makes fashion so important.

Q: Datepicker can be triggered outside of visual box I got some issues with the Datetime component :

*

*Whenever I click on a place above or below the component, it will trigger the datetime and hide my text areas. I tried to fix it by doing some styling in the css but I couldn't find out a solution.

*I would like to put the current date as a placeholder for my datetime component so I declared a myDate variable in the .ts which provides the date and bound it to the placeholder property. Looks like it works but when I want to change the date, the time doesn't update.
Edit : The time is now updating after a complete reload, but the time variable I declared at the right place in the .ts in between the comments is deleted when I reload the project
Related question : I was looking for a list picker in the mobile palette but didn't find one. Ionic provides an ion-picker, do I have to create a new fragment that calls such component ?
Thanks in advance,
Anthony

A: *

*Did you put the DateTime component in an ion-item as recommended in Ionic framework v3 ?

<ion-item>
  <ion-label>Start Time</ion-label>
  <ion-datetime displayFormat="h:mm A" pickerFormat="h mm A"></ion-datetime>
</ion-item>

*Do not directly edit the .TS files, they are automatically generated each time you modify the Application. To add local variables or functions to a Page, right-click on it and choose Edit page class. Add your code after /*Begin_c8o_XXX*/ comments:

/*Begin_c8o_PageDeclaration*/
public myDate = new Date();
/*End_c8o_PageDeclaration*/

Set this.myDate in TS mode in the Placeholder property of the DateTime component.  Format Date to your need. Picking a new date and time should update value of the component. Check Display format and Picker format properties.

*ion-picker is a V4 Ionic component and is not yet supported in Convertigo.

Q: "winmdexp.exe" exited with code -532462766 Scenario: Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate release 4. Windows 8.1 Universal Project. C#. I need a Windows Runtime Component to update my Live Tile periodically.
The solution build ends with the error message:

"winmdexp.exe" exited with code -532462766

I've been searching for clues for the past 2-1/2 days. Nothing comes close. There are no syntax errors in any of the code anywhere in the three projects in this solution. Can anyone point me in a direction at least?

A: I found the solution. My Windows and Windows Phone projects have Assembly Version settings of 1, 0, *, and -blank- to automatically generate version numbers as a function of date-compiled. I use the automatically-generated version numbers to get a "date-compiled" at run-time.
When I set the Assembly Version settings in the runtime component project to match those of the other two projects in the solution, the above error message just went away! :)
Since this was such an ugly problem with no extant solution that I could find, anywhere, I figured I would post a solution here and save somebody else 2-1/2 days of work.

A: If it will help someone - to see the the real error description open cmd and run bin\Debug\YourProject.exe

Limbile artificiale sunt limbi a căror fonologie, gramatică și vocabular au fost inventate de către un om sau un grup mic de oameni, spre deosebire de limbile naturale apărute prin evoluție în decursul istoriei ca parte a culturii unei populații relativ numeroase.

Limbile artificiale se pot clasifica în
 limbi auxiliare, inventate pentru a folosi în comunicarea dintre oameni;
 limbi fictive, care apar în creații artistice;
 limbi experimentale, create de lingviști ca metodă de cercetare;
 limbi secrete, pentru codificarea informației;
 limbi inventate doar pentru amuzament.

Unele limbi auxiliare, între care se numără esperanto, au fost create cu scopul de a fi folosite ca limbă internațională, de exemplu pentru a evita folosirea limbii unei națiuni sau a alteia. În particular, esperanto a evoluat într-o asemenea măsură încât astăzi numărul de vorbitori este estimat a fi între 1 și 2 milioane pe tot globul, dintre care 200-1.000 sunt vorbitori nativi.

Un alt exemplu de limbă artificială auxiliară este limba scrisă romanșă (bazată pe retoromană).

Limbile fictive sunt limbi ale unor popoare sau ființe imaginare care apar în literatură sau filme, cum este de exemplu cazul limbii klingon create de Marc Okrand pentru filmul Star Trek sau al limbilor quenya și sindarin create de J. R. R. Tolkien pentru cărțile sale.

A Scoping Review for Cybersecurity in the Construction Industry | Journal of Management in Engineering | Vol 39, No 2
Nov 26, 2022 CONSTRUCTION, Cybersecurity, Preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analysis extension for scoping review (PRISMA-ScR), Scoping review
AbstractThe 4th industrial revolution and its inherent digitalization are changing every aspect of the construction industry. However, these technological transformations bring new challenges, including cybersecurity. Although a number of studies in recent years have aimed to analyze cybersecurity issues in the construction sector, further research investment in this area is vital. The first step towards identifying needed and promising research directions in this domain is to systematically analyze the existing body of knowledge and detect knowledge gaps. This study addresses this need through a systematic scoping review designed based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis extension for Scoping Review (PRISMA-ScR). To synthesize the existing knowledge, the extracted information is mapped with multiple benchmarks, including the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) framework for cybersecurity management. The outcomes of the scoping review indicated that, from the construction perspective, the existing literature mainly focuses on a few areas, including Building Information Modeling (BIM), while other digital systems such as construction robots and prefabrication platforms need to be considered in future works. In terms of cybersecurity management, most of the existing studies focus on identifying risks and protecting assets. Other aspects of cybersecurity management, including detecting intrusions, responding to threats, and recovering from cyber-attacks need to be addressed in future studies. Regarding the technology-mediated countermeasures, the existing studies have explored only a limited number of potential solutions with a considerable focus on Blockchain-based systems, while the application of other countermeasures such as network virtualization can be a basis for future studies. Finally, the existing studies focused on procedural guidelines lack systematic solutions for areas including integrated cyber risk management and organizational change.

I woke up this morning with grand plans for a blog post all about the role of vampires in fantasy literature. I spent much of the morning thinking about it, composing, and then over lunch something happened. As I was leaving the restaurant, a small group went out ahead of me: three grown men, and a young boy. He couldn't have been older than six, but as the four of them crossed the parking lot he was joking with the others, carrying on an effortless conversation in the most natural way.
As I got in my car, I realized with a shock that I could remember that. I'd been that boy, years and years and years ago.
Sometime in the last couple years, I've started using the phrase "social anxiety." It's become a tag for my blog posts, it's become an excuse for missing social events, and it's become a lot of misunderstanding. I imagine it's become a little tiresome, too. I've made an effort to be open and honest about it — sharing as much of myself as I can to those people who've earned some explanation. The last time I tried, someone asked me if I could remember when it started, but my memory failed me. Seeing that little boy outside Buffalo Wild Wings reminded me of a life I'd lived before social anxiety, though. And then I realized that, even though very few of my friends have experienced life with social anxiety, I've experienced life without it. That gives me a touchstone, if nothing else.
I know a handful of extroverts, but the one who stands out most in my mind is Brent Lightsey, a fellow in our small group at church. He's so outgoing, so anxious to meet new people and make them feel at ease. It's clear anytime you're around him that he takes energy from that interaction and delights in everyone he meets. Social encounters really make his day.
I know a lot of introverts, too, and I'm certainly one myself. When it comes to introverts, social encounters are draining. It takes effort to be friendly, even with people you like, and when the social experience is over, an introvert needs a little time alone to get back up to speed. Then there's the person with social anxiety. When it comes to real anxiety, it's not just draining. It's not just uncomfortable. Social encounters make me feel like I'm dying.
That's not an exaggeration, not hyperbole to get your attention. If you want some corroboration, go look up the symptoms of an anxiety attack. They come in varying degrees of intensity, but even moderate anxiety attacks are often mistaken for heart attacks — to the extent that a person's first anxiety attack almost always takes him to the emergency room. You can't catch your breath, and you feel like you're about to throw up. Tension builds in your chest until it aches, and often your heart races until you can feel your pulse pounding in your ears. Your limbs go weak without warning, and if it's bad enough you find yourself unable to focus your eyes, to maintain a train of thought.
That's not shyness. Shy doesn't send you to the hospital. That's not being an introvert. That's not antisocial, either, because it has nothing to do with your attitude, with your intentions, with how much you like the person you're talking to. It's a physical response, not an intellectual one.
That's not Asperger's, either. There are people who are incapable of normal human interaction, either because they fundamentally cannot understand other people or because they haven't developed basic social skills. That's not my problem. I'm not the most charismatic guy in the room, but I can play my part. I can make friends, I can charm, I can be the life of the party.* It's just that, for days beforehand and days after, I'm crippled by the physical toll of it.
If you've been reading this blog, you've probably noticed I've been talking a lot about Courtney in the last month. Courtney is arguably the first new friend I've made in seven years, and part of the reason that actually happened is because we have so much in common. Courtney and I are both writers. We've both been writers since high school. We're both long-time fans of the fantasy genre, and of sci-fi, and just basically both huge nerds. We're both multi-lingual, fascinated with linguistics, and interested in all the languages of Man. We both went through the same degree program at OC — just a couple years apart. We were both in the Honors program. We both grew up in the same faith. We're both monarchists.
After our writer's group last month I stuck around to talk with Courtney some, to share stories about our lives. We've exchanged novels and shared fantastic feedback and discussion. We've compared music and movies and favorite authors, and we've read each other's blogs in all their verbose monstrosity. It's fair to say we're real friends at this point.
And then last Wednesday night, in the four-minute break between class and service, I caught Courtney to comment on her novel and borrow a book she'd recommended. We stood in the aisle between two rows of pews, and discussed some of the same sort of things we've exchanged (literally) hundreds of pages of digital communication on, and I spent the whole time feeling ill.
The topics were things I was perfectly comfortable with, so a sane part of my mind carried on the conversation, but at the same time another part of my brain was screaming in frantic panic, trying to figure out what to do. "What am I going to say when she stops talking? Am I going to sound like an idiot?"Neither one of those was a problem — that other part of my brain was responding casually, easily, but the irrational fear was there anyway. "How long are we supposed to stand here talking? When is the bell going to ring? Are we in people's way? Should I be talking to Jeff? What about Nicki? I just got up and left them in the pew. How am I going to wrap up this conversation? What can I say to get out of it? Maybe I should just run away. I'd look like an idiot. But I look like an idiot now, right? What am I going to say? What am I going to do?" All of it a screaming fury that I had to pretend wasn't there.
And all of it absurd. Don't feel bad if you laughed at any of that, because it's ridiculous. The moment the bell rang and Courtney said, "Oh, I guess we should sit down," it was gone. All of that frantic panic. All of the thoughts that had gone with it. But it's not just the fleeting nature of the experience that tells me it's false. I can find the words, I can identify the specific fears, and I recognize them as totally baseless. I do know what to say next. I'm fairly confident I don't sound like an idiot (because people keep wanting to talk to me). I even know how to wrap up a conversation. To me, that frantic voice has to be a manufactured expression of something physical. Something more primitive, and outside of my reason.
It happens every time I talk to anyone, though. I described my encounter with Courtney so you could see the absurdity of it, because we have so much in common, and that social encounter was predicated entirely on the things we have in common. True, she's a new friend, but I feel the same thing when I find myself in a one-on-one conversation with Kris, or even Dan. I've been friends with Dan for as long as I've been me. I experience the same thing when I call up Trish to ask her if she could pick up some Dr Pepper while she's at the store, or anytime I walk into my boss's office to talk about work.
It's fleeting. Minutes after that conversation with Courtney I was better — albeit a little bit ashamed — and that's the way these things go. The physical symptoms that went with it were maybe a little difficulty breathing, maybe a little pain in my chest, but nothing you'd really be surprised by. The full anxiety attack usually grows out of big events: a long weekend spent with family, a Halloween party with our small groups, a writer's group where I'm going to do a lot of talking.
If I see it coming, that panic starts a long, long time before I ever lock eyes with anyone. It messes with my sleep schedule, sometimes for weeks. It messes up my appetite for days beforehand, and hits me with real nausea all day the day of. In the hours before the event, I often find myself wandering around aimlessly, unable to concentrate on anything at all. I'll usually lie down somewhere dark and quiet, and tell myself it's just an anxiety attack — it'll be over soon enough — and mostly I just try to breathe.
Then when it's over the let-down is almost as bad. There's almost always a severe headache from the sudden disappearance of all that stress. I can never sleep the night after, with the sickening rush of adrenaline still in my system, and usually I still feel sick to my stomach, too, after days of irregular appetite. The worst of it, though, is the real shame that comes from realizing how much of the last few days (and weeks, and months) I've spent agonizing over something so trivial.
That's social anxiety. In case you were curious.
Well, I've told you about my introvert nervousness that rears its ugly head too often for comfort. Nothing like the social anxiety you describe–at least not the stuff leading up to social encounters or resulting from them.
And then after I got home that evening and was replaying the day in my head, I thought about how yeah, I got weirdly and unnecessarily nervous talking to you…..but it didn't matter. Because even though you didn't show it, I knew you were nervous, too. And because of that, I knew you weren't judging me for my nervousness. I knew I could be my nervous self around you, and it didn't matter at all because you would understand better than most people.
P.S. I'm looking forward to reading the post about vampires in fantasy!
I often pray that this debilitating disorder will quietly slip away. It hurts me to see you so unhappy and uncomfortable. I hope that one day you will wake up from a restful sleep feeling confident, sure and no anxiety and that your heart and your mind will be one. I love you!
I too am interested in hearing your view on vampires in fantasy.


West Suffolk is one of the most beautiful places in the UK.
The West Suffolk constituency was created in 1995 following a Parliamentary Boundary Review and takes in much of the area covered by the former Bury St Edmunds division, together with areas that were previously part of the South Suffolk constituency.
It is a rural area of considerable diversity. The largest town is Haverhill, which is expanding and prospering, with its close connections to the new technology industries around Cambridge. Second largest is Newmarket, famous as the world headquarters of horseracing. There are two major US Airforce bases - RAF Mildenhall and RAF Lakenheath.


OKLAHOMA CITY (January 6, 2015) – Glass Doctor® of Oklahoma City, with the help of Glass Doctor of Tulsa, recently donated and installed new windows for the Ronald McDonald House of Oklahoma City. Glass Doctor partnered with Tristar Glass and Sunbelt Rentals to donate the supplies and complete the installation. The donation was valued at $1,700.
Ronald McDonald House of Oklahoma City has given families of children receiving treatment at local hospitals a comfortable place to stay for many years. The Ronald McDonald House was preparing for an inspection from their board of directors and needed the windows to be fixed prior to the inspection.
The second story windows proved to be a challenge, but the Glass Doctor team was able to work with Sunbelt Rentals to develop scaffolding to help safely install the windows.
"We are grateful for the opportunity to donate our time and resources to help the Ronald McDonald House of Oklahoma City and honored to be able to provide installation services," stated John Vestring, owner of Glass Doctor of Oklahoma City and Tulsa. "The work that the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Oklahoma City does is so important, and we are glad to be able to provide any help we can, so they can focus on the children and families they serve," Vestring added.

I'm talking about the integrated translation function which works a lot better with this forum than google translator itself (yes it is powered by... but the line breaks remain with the integrated function).
However i'm missing an option to set my desired target language for this feature. I would like this, because google translator is very bad on some translations (mostly french, spanish, russian to german from my point of view).
It seems to translate everything to english and than back to target language (which is a google problem). This double translation creates funny results but they are not easily understandable unless there are 4 or less words in a sentence.
I would be cool to allow us to select the target language so that everyone who can understand english on their own can use single translation - even if the general user language is another.

Florida Hospital System
Hospital food? It's what's for dinner
By Kate Santich
Orlando Sentinel |
Jul 12, 2017 | 5:25 PM
| Orlando
Florida Hospital chefs focus on fresh ingredients, lean proteins and plenty of fruits and vegetables, a dietitian says. (FDA.gov)
The pot roast is a favorite — slow-cooked, tender and savory without being salty. Then there's the popular Parmesan-crusted tilapia, the spicy sweet-and-sour chicken, the hearty mushroom stroganoff.
We're not talking restaurant fare here. This is hospital food — specifically, Florida Hospital food — and in a new partnership with Second Harvest Food Bank, it's now helping to feed people at Central Florida soup kitchens, homeless shelters, respite programs for the sick and charities that serve people with disabilities.
Until now, it's also food that would have ended up in the garbage.
"In many ways, it's some of the most significant food we receive," said Greg Higgerson, Second Harvest's vice president of development. "Florida Hospital has a real commitment to fresh food and healthy food prepared in a tasty way."
The donated meals are fare cooked for the hospital's patients, visitors and employees but never served. Instead, the surplus is carefully packaged, labeled, frozen and then picked up by refrigerated Second Harvest trucks, which typically take it straight to the shelters and charities.
Tennille Yates, a Florida Hospital registered dietitian who helped to launch the effort, said the hospital emphasizes whole grains, vegetarian meals and nutritionally hearty food that tends to be low in sodium and saturated fat. But that doesn't mean bland.
"We employ chefs — not just cooks, but culinary [school]-trained chefs," she said. "We take pride in the food we put out there, and it's evidenced by the number of employees who choose to eat in our cafeteria instead of frequenting nearby alternatives or bringing their food from home."

The hospital also has its own bakery that makes bread from scratch. Surplus loaves also are donated to the food bank.
Yates said the aim is not just to feed the hungry or prevent food waste. It's also to interrupt the link between what's called food insecurity — never knowing how you'll afford your next meal — and chronic disease. Federal researchers have documented a correlation between poverty and obesity, particularly for women, and obesity often leads to high-blood pressure, diabetes and heart disease.
"This food is intended to address those underlying concerns," Yates said.
Second Harvest's prepared-food program — called Second Helpings — didn't begin with Florida Hospital. It dates to the early 1990s and a partnership with Walt Disney World's restaurants and hotel kitchens. The initiative worked so well, Higgerson said, it soon expanded to other restaurants, as well as to the region's convention center.
Last year, it added up to about a million pounds of prepared and perishable food from 30 locations. But the Florida Hospital partnership is a first with the health-care industry.
"The saying 'food is medicine' is really true," Higgerson said.
The donation process involves a strict protocol. No food that has been exposed to the public — such as in a salad bar or deli case — can be used, and the temperature must be monitored throughout. Once it is deemed surplus, it has to be packaged, labeled, frozen and served again within about 48 hours.
Faith leaders call on Gov. Rick Scott to honor Pulse victims with executive order » »
The hospital rolled the program out slowly, starting at its Orlando campus in March. From that single location, the hospital was able to donate about 1,500 pounds of food per month.
And this month, it added the Florida Hospital East campus. By year's end, Yates said, all seven campuses within metro Orlando and many thousands of pounds of food will be involved.
"It's a huge blessing for us," said Sara Trollinger, founder and president of the nonprofit House of Hope, a residential program for troubled youth and one of the recipients. "We get no government funds, so we're totally dependent on private donations, including the help we get from Second Harvest. And because we serve teens, they've got hollow legs. They have very big appetites."

Yesterday I got a parcel in the post, a recently married couple would like a champagne bottle from their wedding slumped as a momento.
We discussed the options and they decided on a flat bottle with the label put back on , this is always tricky as the labels don't always come off the bottle in a good enough state to go back on. Luckily they had managed to get the labels off themselves.
This is the finished bottle once the labels have been stuck back on, it will be in the post to my customer tomorrow.
I'm waiting 'til tomorrow to put in in the post so I know the glue is dry.
"I've received my bottle. Absolutely brilliant! Thank you so much for all your help.
Brilliant Jill. And this is just the beginning of great things!
Lovely idea, but how would one get the labels off the bottles in one piece?

Samsung is optimistic despite of losses
The company's profit decreased for the first time in 7 quarters. However, the South Korean company is still optimistic and hopes for stability in the production of semiconductors.
DennisM2
Samsung Electronics published an optimistic forecast for the coming months, citing the strong chip business. The forecast is somehow contrary to the fact that the technology giant reported its first decline in profits for 7 quarters against the backdrop of weak sales of its flagship smart phones.
Semiconductors remained the main revenue driver for Samsung, generating more than 80% of operating profit. Operating profit of the division increased to $ 10.4 billion in the II quarter. A two-year stable demand amid a two-year strong global demand for memory chips has ensured the growth.
Samsung said that the semiconductor forecast remains strong due to stable demand for servers and the production of mobile phones. The global memory chip industry has grown since the second half of 2016 amid rising demand and limited supply.
The net profit of the South Korean company was $ 9.8 billion. The decrease was 5.5% compared to the previous quarter. Sales decreased by 4% year on year.
In its announcement, the company said that stability in the memory market and the growing demand for flexible organic LED panels (OLED) will stimulate revenue growth in the second half of the year.
"I think that the decline in profits was temporary and once again the company will report on record revenues in the third quarter, and this trend will continue next year," commented Daniel Mcgill, analyst of Macquarie, "Although there are some disagreements about the semiconductor cycle, the boom of memory chips will continue next year due to strong demand from data centers."
However, other analysts believe that it will be difficult for Samsung to maintain revenue dynamics next year. Experts refer to the slowdown in smart phone sales and signs of a decline in the chip industry. They expect that the semiconductor cycle will decrease because of the excess capacity in the next year.

Toyota has long been recognized as the top-selling auto brand among U.S. Hispanic customers, but it didn't happen overnight. From testing its first cars in the mountainous terrain of Puerto Rico, to the Corolla holding its place as the number one national selling vehicle in the Hispanic market, the Toyota brand's successful trajectory has been a long one, and it looks as though it will continue that way, thanks to its young, energetic driver at the wheel– Javier Moreno, manager of external affairs and communications for Toyota Motor NorthAmerica (TMNA), Inc. in Plano, Texas.
Previously, Moreno served as manager of corporate communications at Toyota's North American holding company based in New York City. His responsibilities included media and investor relations, social media, marketing communications and multicultural outreach.
Now, Moreno's role has shifted to being a national spokesperson for the company, to establish Toyota's public presence in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex through the management of media relations, government affairs and community relations.
Javier Moreno talked to Hispanic PR Blog recently, addressing topics raging from Toyota's marketing strategy with Latinos, the brand's (and his) involvement with national Hispanic events and conferences, and the challenges of persuading the Latino community to embrace a more green lifestyle through the use of hybrid cars.
Being involved with Hispanic initiatives/marketing isn't new to Toyota. But it is new to a lot of other brands. What made Toyota realize this was an important demographic from the get-go?
Toyota has advertised to U.S. Latinos for more than 30 years, while many brands are just now realizing the importance of the Hispanic market and are trying to catch up. Our strategy has been both comprehensive and integrated and incorporates elements of marketing, public relations, community relations and stakeholder and influencer engagement. Toyota campaigns such as Somos Muchos Latinos celebrate the diversity within the Hispanic community, yet acknowledge that we are one family.
Toyota is involved with several Hispanic events/conferences throughout the year. Why do you feel it's important to be involved with these events and what has the brand gained from their partnerships?
We strive to remain close to the market in order to understand each unique culture and be able to speak about the opportunities that Toyota vehicles provide in the most relevant and respectful way. Serving as a title sponsor for premier Hispanic events and conferences allows us to not only engage with the Latino community, but also thank them for their business. These connectionsare the basis of our multicultural-marketing approach and it's why we've seen success in this important market.
I've noticed that Toyota is using social media to reach Hispanics. A lot of brands are hesitant to involve social media in their yearly campaigns, especially Latinos in social media, yet Toyota has fully embraced it. Can you tell us more about the #VayamosJuntos campaign? Who organized this campaign? Is it the Toyota internal communications team? Or do you work with an agency or a blogging network?
Hispanics are the most active group on social media in the U.S. —80 percent of Latinos are digitally engaged, according to Pew Hispanic Research. So Toyota knows they're a target online audience. #VayamosJuntos is actually an extension of Toyota's "Let's Go Places" slogan. And while it's not the literal translation, we wanted the Spanish-language slogan to truly reflect the meaning behind "Let's Go Places." In researching the new slogan, we found that "vamos" is the more commonly used word, but may insinuate a mandate. Meanwhile, "vayamos" is more of an invitation.
#VayamosJuntos is another example of how Toyota strives to engage Latinos in a more relevant,authentic way. We know it's about more than simply translating from English to Spanish. Toyota Latino is managed by our internal team with support from Conill Advertising. Conill has been an excellent agency to work with over the past three decades.
Does Toyota approach their marketing towards Latinos differently than toward non-
Latinos? In other words, how does your approach differ? What data or culture quirks and customs do you notice when it comes to car buying from Latinos vs. other demographics?
The Total Toyota (T2) approach is a "total market" strategy. As the corporate communications team, we're actively establishing deeper relationships with influential Latino communities in the U.S. through our Hispanic Business Strategy Group. Our strategy is both comprehensive and integrated.
When it comes to trends, we've seen that Latinos are more likely to own mainstream subcompact and compact cars, such as the Toyota Corolla, followed by mainstream mid-sized cars and then full-sized and heavy-duty pickup trucks. Hispanics are also more likely to choose a Japanese- branded vehicle over other brands. They're also going to rely more on friends and family for information on a certain vehicle, rather than what they read in print or see on television.
How do Latinos feel about hybrid cars? Do you think it's harder to convince Hispanics to go green than other demographics? Why or why not?
It's a work in progress. As the creator of the Prius, Toyota knows hybrid technology and has shown that it's a proven technology, saving American's about $5 billion in fuel costs over the past 14 years. We have the opportunity to continue to work with the Latino community and share the benefits of hybrid technology and are doing just that.
The Prius family currently accounts for about 41 percent of all alternative fuel vehicle sales among Hispanics. And while Latinos have been slower to adopt hybrid technology, sales increased from roughly 12,701 total units sold in 2009, to more than 40,000 units 2013.
What has Toyota done to market the hybrid car and convince Hispanics to embrace a green lifestyle?
Strategies such as our social media partnership with Latino influencers such as Jon Secada aim to promote a greener lifestyle to U.S. Hispanics. Secada is a well-known and trusted public figure for Latinos and his endorsement of the Toyota Prius strengthens our message of increasing sustainability awareness within the market.
What can Hispanic consumers expect from Toyota in 2015? Will Toyota be at more events? Increase or decrease their social media presence? Launch a new advertising campaign? Etc.
Consistency is key in order to continue with our success. While we can't share everything, we do know we'll remain aggressive in this market and continue to promote our core products, such as the Tundra and Corolla. We'd also like to continue improving hybrid technology acceptance among Latinos. Following the 10 year milestone as no. 1 among U.S. Hispanics, we have some great things in store in order to thank our Latino consumers for their business and continuous support.

HOOVER, Ala. – After leading Iowa to a Big Ten title as a player in his senior year, Bret Bielema followed his football passion into coaching. He spent the next dozen years as an assistant before taking the reigns at Wisconsin for seven years. In 2017, he enters his fifth season at Arkansas. He has a compiled a more than respectable 93-50 record with only a single losing season. He has shared in four league trophies and ten bowl appearances.
The 47-year-old Bielema has seen it all, right?
Last Saturday morning at 4:44 a.m.,his wife Jen gave birth to their first child, Briella Nicole Bielema.
"Wow! My wife. Jen, is a trooper, she wanted to deliver naturally; 26 hours of labor," Bielema told reporters Monday at the opening of SEC Media Days.
The first-time father said his new-found parenthood truly came to life while driving to his rural home outside of Fayettevlle. "I looked in the rearview mirror and saw Briella in the child seat and immediately started looking for every possum on the road," he said.
His grueling schedule has not gone unnoticed by his players. "He hasn't had much sleep, but he is okay. Congrats; I am happy for him," said QB Austin Allen after he observed the hour long flight from Fayetteville.
In a typical Bielema response, he said one of the advantages has been all his interviews started "without questions concerning controversy." They were all about his baby girl.
Those familiar with the Razorback Nation know 'Woo Pig Sooie' is a cheer that the entire state embraces daily. But, when asked what his daughter's first words would be, he didn't think about football.
He thought about his wife, Jen.

Welcome to Ying Ying Soy Food, the Traditional Tofu Company!
Ying Ying Soy Food is a small family-owned and operated artisan tofu producer. We have been proudly serving Canadians with the cleanest and best tasting tofu products since 2001. Our tofu finds its roots in its 2000-year-old tradition and processing technique. Our tofu is made the same way as it was done for more than 2000 years from 200 BC to the 1950s. We stick to the traditional process, the traditional formula. We use the original coagulant, Nigari, and hand-make our tofu in small batches in the traditional way.
It is important to understand a simple FACT about tofu making. It requires only 2 ingredients to make tofu: the soybean and a coagulant. Nigari has been used as the coagulant in tofu making since the very beginning back in the 200 BC. Nigari is a mineral that is derived from sea salt, and it is chemically known as Magnesium Chloride. As we know, magnesium is an essential mineral for our heart, our bone and the health of our immune system, and is fundamental in children's growth as well. What is extraordinary is that magnesium has been a part of tofu since 200 BC. Soybean is an important source of plant protein; and magnesium Is one of the most important minerals for our well being. Traditional tofu presents the perfect combination for our health needs, particularly in this modern time of ours. Is it any wonder why the traditional tofu is superior? Is it any wonder why a tradition becomes a tradition? However, contrary to the tradition, today's main-stream tofu is mostly mass produced with Calcium Sulphate, which is also known as gypsum, as it is an extremely cheap alternative to magnesium.
Our tofu products are also all hand-cut and wok cooked to perfection without using any chemical additives, as we believe food needs to be pure and clean. Furthermore, we only use Certified Organic Soybeans grown in Ontario which are Non-GMO.
Tofu is associated with healthful and conscious living. Our products are emphasized around this idea and are helping Canadians build and maintain lifelong healthy eating. Who says good food does not taste good? Our Gourmet Tofu is as delicious and nutritious, as it is convenient. It is a perfect healthy handy food. You have to try it to believe it!
"It's so yummy, I can't believe it's tofu!"
