Probable OSA Common in Patients With Epilepsy, Linked to SUDEP Risk
A pilot study has identified a potential link between obstructive sleep apnea and a higher risk of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy.
Erik St. Louis, MD
Findings of a small pilot study have identified a possible link between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), suggesting that the identification and treatment of OSA in those with epilepsy could be a novel approach to risk prevention for SUDEP.
Ultimately, the study found a high frequency of probable OSA in those being monitored for epilepsy. These patients were found to be older and heavier, with higher screening symptoms for sleep apnea, more frequent focal seizures, and a longer epilepsy duration (P <.05 for all).
Conducted by a group of researchers including Erik K. St. Louis, MD, the chair of the Division of Sleep Neurology and an associate professor of neurology at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, the trial prospectively recruited 49 consecutive adult patients which were admitted to the Mayo Clinic Epilepsy Monitoring Unit. These patients all had either focal, generalized, or unclassified epilepsy syndromes. In total, 14 (28.6%) had treatment-resistant epilepsy.
"We are interested in the relationships between epilepsy and sleep, which seem to be reciprocal and bidirectional—the worse the sleep, the worse the seizures; the worse the seizures/epilepsy, the worse the sleep," St. Louis told NeurologyLive. "It has been known that OSA is a frequent comorbidity in adults and children with epilepsy, especially those with drug-resistant epilepsy, in comparison to other people of similar age and sex, and even those with other neurological conditions. OSA may worsen seizure control, sleep quality, and quality of life in epilepsy."
He added that OSA has been associated with sudden death in the general population, but the relationship between sudden unexpected death in epilepsy and OSA has not been previously explored, to his knowledge. "SUDEP is a tragic consequence of drug-resistant epilepsy in adults and children and has been known to be associated with central apnea, both during and following seizures," he said.
Of the 49 patients, 38% (n = 19) had probable OSA by either oximetry, SA‐SDQ, or STOP‐BAG (a slightly altered version of the STOP-BANG) sleep apnea questionnaire criteria. All told, 43 patients had analyzable oximetry, with a mean oxyhemoglobin desaturation index (ODI) of 4.65 ±5.7 (range, 0.1 to 22.8 ), and 35% (n = 15) having an ODI ≥5/h.
"Although all 19 subjects who screened positive were advised to pursue sleep medicine consultation and polysomnography, only 3 of 19 (15.8%) did so, and in these subjects, OSA was confirmed, with a mean apnea‐hypopnea index of 6.3/h," St. Louis and his co-authors wrote.
Those with ODI ≥5/h had a higher Sleep Apnea–Sleep Disorders Questionnaire (SA‐SDQ) and STOP-BAG scores. As stated prior, they also tended to be older, and more likely to have focal epilepsy and at a longer duration. In particular, those with at ≥30 years of epilepsy had a significantly higher frequency of probable OSA, as identified by any measure compared with patients with epilepsy for <30 years (P <.05).
"Agreement between STOP ‐BAG and ODI for [probable OSA] diagnosis was fair (k = .39), whereas agreement between SA‐SDQ and ODI was moderate (k = .45). Agreement for probable OSA diagnosis was best between SA‐SDQ and STOP‐BAG measures (k = .66)," the authors noted.
The median Revised SUDEP Risk Inventory (rSUDEP-7) score was 3 ±1.4 (range, 0 to 6). A higher rSUDEP‐7 score was associated with a higher ODI value (Pearson's r = .32; P = .036), and rSUDEP‐7 scores of >3 were also associated with a probable OSA diagnosis by ODI ≥5/h (univariate P = .036). Those with an rSUDEP‐7 score of ≥5 had a higher adjusted ODI compared with those with scores of <5 (P = .007), which endured as significantly associated with probable OSA when the authors adjusted for age, sex, calculated antiepileptic drug load, number of antiepileptic drugs at the time of the study, and body mass index (P = .03).
"We confirmed that: 1., OSA is a frequent comorbidity in those with drug-resistant epilepsy; 2., that the specific clinical characteristics of older age, heavier body weight, focal epilepsy syndrome diagnosis, and longer epilepsy duration may help identify those patients with epilepsy who also have comorbid OSA and may benefit from diagnosis and treatment; and 3., we learned that there appears to be an association between sleep apnea and possible SUDEP risk in drug-resistant epilepsy patients," St. Louis said.
Additionally, those with rSUDEP‐7 scores of ≥5 were more likely to have a diagnosis of OSA by all 3 measures combined (P = .006), as well as ODI (P = .01), STOP‐BAG (P = .04), and SA‐SDQ (P = .008), individually. St. Louis et. al. also found associations between rSUDEP‐7 scores ≥5 and patients having a probable OSA diagnosis by measures of oximetry, STOP‐BAG, and SA‐SDQ (P = .001).
Although there were no associations between rSUDE P‐7 score and age, sex, BMI, epilepsy type, nocturnal seizures, refractory epilepsy, or sleepiness, those who had a longer duration of epilepsy had higher rSUDEP‐7 scores (P = .008).
"Future larger confirmatory studies with combined video‐electroencephalography–polysomnography for more definitive identification of OSA, delineating its relationship to interictal and preictal hypoxia, hypercapnia, and autonomic function, are needed. Given the potential association between OSA, seizures, and SUDEP, patients with epilepsy should be screened and treated for OSA to reduce its impact on cardiorespiratory function and improve sleep consolidation," St. Louis and colleagues concluded.

Generally I work in a mix of watercolour and acrylic inks but not exclusively. Most of my paintings contain elements of brush and pen work but sometimes using a wooden chopstick creating soft edges with a toothbrush! I also draw a selection of subjects in pen and ink coloured with water colour, usually on location and in a loose sketchbook style. I enjoy using metal leaf in a variety of colours and methods.

Resistance-type Exercise Training in Postmenopausal Women Survivors of Breast Cancer
MUSCLE-CLIM
Start date: January 2023
Phase: N/A
Background: In postmenopausal women, an alteration in body composition occurs as a consequence of the secretion of low levels of serum estrogens by the ovaries. Observing an increase in abdominal and mammary fat mass and a decrease in skeletal muscle mass, which is also accompanied by loss of muscle strength and physical function, which leads early to a sarcopenia. On the other hand, the increase in estrogen production by adipose tissue has been associated with an increased risk of breast cancer during menopause because the mammary parenchyma is particularly sensitive to this type of estrogen. For this reason, Hormone Therapy (Aromatase Inhibitors and Tamoxifen) is prescribed in women with estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer. Antineoplastic treatments (Chemotherapy and Hormonal Therapy) have contributed to non-metastatic breast cancer currently presenting a high survival rate, not without adverse effects associated with the course of the disease, age and antineoplastic treatment, affecting various systems, but particularly skeletal muscle mass. Therefore, resistance exercise training has been proposed as an effective intervention strategy to increase muscle mass and strength in different populations. However, the level of muscle response to this type of training in postmenopausal women survivors of breast cancer with and without hormone treatment (Aromatase Inhibitors and Tamoxifen) is unknown.
NCT ID: NCT05448079 Completed - Postmenopause Clinical Trials
The Effect of Sexual Counseling Given According to the PLISSIT Model on FSFI, MAS and SQOL-F of Postmenopausal Women
This study was conducted as a randomized pretest-posttest study to examine the effect of sexual counseling based on the PLISSIT model on post-menopausal women's sexual functions, marital adjustment and quality of sexual life. Sixty women (Experimental=30, Control=30) that applied to the menopause policlinic of a Women Diseases Training and Research Hospital were included in the study. Two women dropped out later, so the study was completed with 58 (Experimental=29, Control=29) women. Firstly, women were separated into two groups according to the cut-point of (26,55) in The Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) (those who score 26,6 and above or 26,5 and below) and then these two groups were divided into intervention and control groups randomly. Data were collected with Descriptive Questions Form, Menopause Symptom Evaluation Scale (MRS), FSFI, Marital adjustment Scale (MAS) and Sexual Quality of Life Questionnaire Scale - Female Version (SQOL-F) between September 07, 2020 and March 26, 2021. The intervention group was given sexual counselling, prepared in line with the PLISSIT model, for three weeks, once a week and lasting approximately one hour. The effect of the counseling was tested twelve weeks after counseling was completed. Women in the control group were also interviewed twice concurrent with the intervention group; once when the counseling began and once during the last assessment. Women in the control group filled some data forms. After the study was completed, the counseling was also given to women who wanted it, in the control group. Frequency and percentage values, descriptive statistics, Fisher's Exact Test, Pearson Chi Square, t tests, for non-normally distributed data Mann Whitney U test and the Wilcoxon test were used for data analysis. Keywords: Post-menopausal period, sexual counseling, PLISSIT model, nursing care
NCT ID: NCT05347082 Completed - Clinical trials for Postmenopausal Osteoporosis
Frequency of Hyperparathyroidism in Postmenopausal Osteoporosis and Its Treatment
Start date: April 29, 2021
Recently, an increase in the prevalence of hyperparathyroidism and hypovitaminosis D in postmenopause women has been occurring in Mexico and the world. Chronic exposure to the parathyroid hormone (PTH) is catabolic for the bone, worsening the state of osteoporosis. However, it is unclear whether these conditions could significantly improve bone mineral density (BMD). In the present work, it was shown that the resolution of hyperparathyroidism in postmenopausal women improves osteoporosis.

This study seeks to determine the feasibility of an exercise training progression with the consumption of beetroot juice prior to exercise in postmenopausal women. Results from this investigation will be used to determine preliminary effect sizes for exercise training only (control) and exercise training + beetroot juice (EX+BR) to inform the direction of larger randomized clinical trials on pre-post changes in measures of cardiovascular health and endothelial function.
NCT ID: NCT04136093 Recruiting - Metabolic Syndrome Clinical Trials
Diet for the Maintenance of Weight Loss and Metabolic Health in Obese Postmenopausal Women
The aim of the study will be comparing the effectiveness of two diets: moderate in fat with a high proportion of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) - the Mediterranean diet (MED) and 2) the low in fat and high in dietary fiber contents the dietary approaches to stop hypertension diet (DASH) on weight maintenance and cardiovascular risks following a recent body weight reduction in centrally obese postmenopausal women. The tested diets will be given ad libitum manner. Moreover, adherence to both prescribed weight-loss maintenance diets will be also evaluated by the plasma concentration of alkylresorcinols (AR) as a possible whole grain wheat/rye dietary biomarker and by the analysis of fatty acids profile in erythrocyte membranes as a dietary biomarker of a fatty acids consumption. The participants of this study will be 150 non-smoking, postmenopausal women with central obesity, who wished to lose weight and have at least one other criterion of metabolic syndrome. The intervention will include 3 phases: Phase I (weeks 1-8), weight loss dietary intervention with 700 kcal/d energy deficit, Phase II (week 9-32), weight loss maintenance intervention for those participants losing ≥10% initial body weight the MED or the DASH diet will be offered in a random manner. The control group will receive oral dietary recommendations based on the Harvard model "Healthy Eating Plate". After this 32 weeks period will be finished, the participants will be discharged to the community with no contact by study personnel, until the 52-weeks follow-up period (Phase III).
NCT ID: NCT03854396 Withdrawn - Menopause Clinical Trials
Clinical Trial on the Preventive Effect of Intravaginal Prasterone on Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections in Postmenopausal Women
Start date: May 2020
Phase: Phase 3
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are bothersome and more likely to occur in postmenopausal women. Frequent UTIs, as well as other problems with the urinary and genital systems such as painful sex and urinary frequency/urgency, are part of a symptom complex called genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM). Prasterone (Intrarosa®) is a man-made steroid that helps with painful sex in postmenopausal women. Because previous studies have shown prasterone to help with other GSM problems, this study was designed to investigate if prasterone used in the vagina decreases the number of UTIs in postmenopausal women.
Effect of Resistance Training Variable Manipulation in Postmenopausal Breast Cancer Survivors.
This study intends to evaluate the impact of resistance training variable manipulation (intensity and volume) on body composition, fatigability and functional capacity in postmenopausal breast cancer survivors.

A triple-band microstrip patch antenna
Jeen-Sheen Row
A new integrated structure of a two-element microstrip patch antenna with two feeds for wireless local network/global positioning system (WLAN/GPS) operations is proposed. The radiating element for dual-band WLAN (2400-2483 MHz and 5150-5850 MHz) operations is a single-feed planar inverted-F antenna with a U-shaped slot, which gives linearly polarized radiation. The second radiating element is a square microstrip patch with truncated corners for GPS operations at 1575 GHz, which provides circular polarized broadside radiation patterns. The two radiating elements are integrated in the proposed antenna to have a compact structure. In addition, an isolation of better than -25 dB between the feed ports was also obtained.

Mammoth crowd as Ortom flags-off Senatorial campaign
A crowd of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP supporters thronged the JS Tarka Stadium, Gboko to witness the flag-off of the Benue North-West Senatorial district campaigns for 2023 elections.
Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom who is the PDP Senatorial candidate for the Senatorial seat while addressing the teeming party faithful at the campaign rally said the party remains committed to winning all its elections in the state.
He particularly appreciated the support of the people and charged them to continue to support the party.
In his words: "I appreciate you for your commitment to the cause of Benue State. You have been good to me, you have never disappointed me and this time around, you have demonstrated that. Your outing today has really overwhelmed me and I am grateful.
"I want to assure you that we remain committed. Benue State is PDP, and PDP is Benue State. By the grace of God, we are going to win our elections," he stated.
The Governor urged the people to vote for Titus Uba as his successor, emphasizing that "by the grace of God, I want to assure you that Titus Uba will take over from me as the Governor of Benue State come 2023. Don't be carried away by rumours and what people say."
Governor Ortom maintained that despite the challenges of the party at the national level "I want to assure you that PDP is committed, that is why you have seen us working together. I want to assure you that PDP is strong, firm and committed to win Benue State. Don't be deterred. We shall continue to do our best."
The Senator representing Benue North-East Senatorial district, Dr Gabriel Suswam in his remarks stated that Ortom had the leadership courage and political will to effectively represent and protect the interest of the state if elected to the Senate and charged the people to vote him overwhelmingly.
Senator Suswam particularly noted that Benue State was marginalized in the national political equation and men of uncommon courage like Ortom were needed in the Senate to collaborate with his colleagues to make a case for the state.
He charged young people to stand firm to protect the future of the state, urging party stalwarts to return to their polling units and mobilize support for the party.
On his part, Senator representing Benue North-West Senatorial district, Barrister Orker Jev said he was prepared to hand over the Zone B senate seat to Ortom whom he noted was poised to represent and protect the interest of his people, stating that there were many good reasons why Ortom deserved to be elected to the Senate.
Also speaking, Senator representing Benue South, Comrade Abba Moro said the PDP was on rescue mission following the misrule of the APC-led government, emphasising that the party in the state will key into the leadership of Governor Ortom to ensure all candidates win in next year's polls.
Governorship candidate of PDP in Benue State, Titus Uba who spoke through the Deputy Governorship candidate, Sir John Ngbede, pledged to sustain the security initiatives as well as achievements in infrastructure, education and health put in place by the Ortom administration.
Wife of the Governor, Dr Eunice Ortom in her brief remarks, expressed appreciation to Benue people for the support given to the administration of Governor Ortom and their commitment to elect him to the Senate.
Earlier, Chairman of the occasion, Senator Fred Orti and Chairlady of the occasion, Mrs Justina Sorkaa in separate remarks lauded the performance of Governor Ortom, particularly for running an inclusive government and urged the people to vote for him.
In separate remarks, the Director of the Benue North-West Senatorial campaign, Hon Mike Mku said the PDP was poised to winning the polls, urging the people to vote Ortom for Senate as he had the qualities for the task, while the guest speaker, Dr Cletus Tyokyaa said Ortom was favoured by zoning and track record of performance.
The Acting State Chairman of the Party, Hon Isaac Mffo presented PDP flags to all candidates of the party in Benue North-West Senatorial district.

So in the past, I have always used a Trisha Yearwood recipe for chicken enchiladas; but I saw this recipe the other day, and it just sounded way to good not to try. I am so glad we did!
Yesterday was a SUPER busy day for me. My engagement ring has been gone almost 3 weeks to get sized, and it came back in to the jeweler yesterday afternoon. I really wanted to go get it so I would have it for our anniversary (today). So I worked from 9am to 5pm, went to the gym, went to the mall to get my ring, then made these EPIC enchiladas. They took about 45 minutes total, and they were absolute perfection!
Start off by preheating the oven to 425, and grabbing a big enough baking dish. Next mix your shredded chicken with about half of your shredded cheese. Stuff the flour tortillas with this mixture, and place them seam-side down in the baking dish.
Next may a little roux out of the butter and flour by melting the butter in a warm sauce pan, and slowly mixing in the flour. Pour in the chicken broth and stir 3-4 minutes, or until thickened. Now turn the heat down and mix in the sour cream, green chilies, and salt and pepper. Pour this cream pan of deliciousness over the top of your enchiladas and sprinkle with remaining shredded cheese. Pop in the over for about 20 minutes and Voila!!!
These were heavenly. I will definitely make these again next time I am craving some good Mexican food. The creamy sauce really made this dish. These are a must try!


Simply put, this is a choc-a-holic's dream! Using not one, not two, but 3 different chocolate varieties, this fudgey 100% cocoa dough is heaped full of divine dark cocoa, Belgian milk chocolate fudge and white chocolate chunks. Prepare yourself for a chocolate coma!
Bring to room temperature & scoop straight from tub to mouth.

The National Museum of Indian Cinema (NMIC) provides a glimpse into Indian film history and helps film students, film-makers, fans and critics to learn and understand cinema as a medium of artistic expression in the country and globally.
With over a hundred years journey to be told, the National Museum of Indian Cinema (NMIC) deems to preserve the rich history of films and entertainment industry. Inaugurated on January 19 by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, NMIC is the first ever film museum in the country. Many bigwigs of Bollywood including Jeetendra, Karan Johar, Asha Bhosle, Aamir Khan, AR Rahman and Subhash Ghai attended the inaugural event. Located in Cumballa Hill, Mumbai, the museum is housed in two buildings, the New Museum Building and the 19th century historic palace Gulshan Mahal.
Apart from being a storehouse of information for the layman, the museum also has a theatre where short films will be shown, and also consists of a shop, which will sell the copies/photographs etc. of the vintage items, books and booklets on the work of noted film makers and mementoes.
With its state-of-the-art appeal, the museum is going to delight people with displayed artefacts like vintage cameras, projectors, editing and recording equipments, costumes, photographs and other materials portraying the journey of Indian cinema since its dawn in 1913 with the first full-length feature film, Raja Harishchandra made by the legendary Dhundiraj Govind Phadke, known as Dadasaheb Phalke.
Even though the film industry of India is one of the biggest industries in the country, it is not completely free of problems, a major one consisting of piracy. While inaugurating the museum, the Prime Minister assured the film industry that effective steps are being taken to curb piracy and announced the amendments in the Cinematography Act, 1952. Aiming to provide ease to filmmakers, the government has also removed 1400-odd laws that were irrelevant under the ease of doing business policy.
Considering the fact that films also plays a big role in promoting tourism sector in the country, which further boosts employment, the government proposed that there could soon be a global film summit in India, similar to the World Economic Forum Summit in Davos.
The museum is also a research centre which will timely evaluate the impact of the film industry in the society. Indians have always been very fond of films and music, which forms the greatest part of entertainment in their lives. This is the reason why cinema has a huge impact on our lives and is considered as an easiest source of bringing change in the society which seems to persist for long term.
In what will provide a new experience for cinema aficionados, NMIC will remain open for public between 11 am and 6 pm every Sunday and Tuesday.

Q: Gridview data update on each textbox keystoke Gridview data update on each textbox keystoke

A: It is not totally clear what you'd like to do, but assuming you want to update a running total or other such scriptable update:

*

*Create a Javascript function to do the totaling from the controls.  This will require some processing of the ASP.Net control names.
function UpdateTotal(txtYourTextBoxId)
{
    // Get the value from the textbox, in this case a Quantity
    var Qty = document.getElementById(txtYourTextBoxId).value;
// Do stuff with this control and/or all controls on page
// foreach, etc.

// change the total at the bottom of the grid
document.getElementById("ctl00_lblTotal").innerHTML = Qty;

}

*In your code behind, add an "OnChange" attribute whenever the textbox value changes.  This is done in the RowDataBound event:
protected void myGridView_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Row.RowType != DataControlRowType.DataRow) return;
    TextBox txtYourTextBox= (TextBox)e.Row.FindControl("txtYourTextBox");
    txtYourTextBox.Attributes["onchange"] = "UpdateTotal(this.id)";
}
Thus whenever there is an OnChange event from a textbox, the javascript function is fired.

It was rumored to be imminent, and indeed it was, after Gmail's design change, we finally got an official and "native" Gmail App for iPhones and iPads. Or at least... so we thought!
The problem is that this much awaited App greeted every user with a error popup with a cryptic message regarding notification activation. Not a very good way to start.
1) Google would launch a App with such a glaring bug that pops up when you launch it!
2) Apple Store reviewers wouldn't catch that bug either!
Never the less, even without notifications - which are kind of the "point" for having a native App - the Gmail apps behaves quite like the mobile gmail interface you already have in your mobile browser.
So, the new stuff is the (for now missing) push notification, send photos as attachment, autocomplete email addressess (from both the gmail contact list as well as your iPhone's contacts), and easy label access with a swipe to the right.

Companies each have their own requirements for reporting and data analyses. The most important criterion: The tools must be easy-to-use and burden the IT department as little as possible.
For simple and efficient data access corporate-wide the following SAP BW & BO applications for reporting are available to your staff:
SAP BEx Suite
The SAP BEx Suite is part of the SAP BW. The Business Explorer (BEx) offers flexible reporting and analysis tools, among them the BEx Analyzer Excel and the BEx Web Analyzer.
SAP BO Suite
The SAP Business Objects Portfolio can be purchased as a package or as separate modules. It includes a wide range of tools and applications enabling users to integrate and evaluate information, e.g. for report management or dynamic, scalable data visualization.
SAP BO Dashboard Design (Xcelsius)
The Dashboard offers a quick and efficient way of visualizing strategic and operative company data for decision makers as KPIs or general analyses – even in mobile applications. The integration with SAP BW enables users to access and present daily information updates.
Ad-hoc Reporting
SAP BO Web Intelligence
Users can work with both predefined and user-defined queries to generate detailed data representations, recognize trends and identify problems. An installation of the tool is not required – it can be accessed via Internet. An installable desktop version that allows users to work without web access is also available.
BEx Web Template
The BEx Web Application Designer gives users the means of developing both simple and complex HTML pages with BI-specific content (tables, graphs etc.) for integration into the portal or as independent web applications (e.g. Cockpit).
BO Explorer
The BO Explorer is a web-based tool that permits a quick and simple representation of KPIs and company figures within a predefined scope of analysis. The search function (e.g. "2010 sales Austria") lets users visualize results based on predefined "data ranges" with just a few mouse clicks.
Detail analyses
BEx Analyzer (Excel)
The BEx Analyzer is the analytical reporting and design tool of the Business Explorer (BEx Suite) that is integrated in Microsoft Excel. It allows users to navigate efficiently (drill down) through data using drag & drop and the context menu. Users can also create reusable workbooks that may contain objects like graphics or drop-down menus.
BEx Web Analyzer (Standard Layout)
The BEx Web Analyzer is the analytical reporting tool of the BEx Suite that is available as convenient web application for data analysis. The tool is called up via a URL or an iView within the portal. You may navigate through the data of a query (see BEx Analyzer) and use other functions of the Web Analyzer that are available on the application toolbar. You can, for instance, change the way data is visualized or use Information Broadcasting functions to send your analyses to others or create printable versions.
SAP BO Analyzer (Office Edition)
SAP BO Analysis for MS Office is the premium alternative to the BEx Analyzer (Excel). Besides a greatly improved integration of standard MS Office functions (graphics etc.), it features navigation by means of pivot tables. Also new is a series of VBA functions for technically advanced users.
SAP Business Objects Analysis (for OLAP)
SAP Business Objects Analysis (for OLAP) offers web-based data analysis that is similar to the analysis with Excel. Used together with the SAP BO Business Intelligence Platform 4.0, SAP Business Objects Analysis (for OLAP) can access data from different sources and offers a standard interface for analysis.
Formatted reporting
SAP BO Crystal Reports
SAP BO Crystal Reports is a tool for standard, highly formatted and cross-departmental reporting. It meets corporate design and data format requirements (web, PDF ...) and permits automatic scheduling of reports. The information value may be further enhanced with the integration of other reporting tools (e.g. Dashboard Design).
A portal with intuitive GUI allows users to access the various SAP BW & BO front end tools via the web and to call up and store data at a central location.
The SAP Enterprise Portal offers additional flexible extension options such as
Broadcasting (automatic dispatch of reports)
Exception Reporting (rule-based dispatch of reports)
Knowledge Management (e.g. filing of information on reports)

Mark your calendars! The Greater Pascack Valley Chamber of Commerce has announced the 2019 Citizen of the Year Recipients and the Awards Dinner where they will be honored for their selfless contributions to the Pascack Valley. Tickets are available now (see bottom of page).
One of the things that makes the greater Pascack Valley such a wonderful place to live and work are those who actually reside here. One of many activities the Greater Pascack Valley Chamber of Commerce has the pleasure of sponsoring is the annual Citizen of the Year Awards. Each year, the GPVCOC honors a person (or persons) who the chamber feels exemplifies good citizenship and shows an admirable commitment to the community. This year, the Chamber has chosen Pascack Valley residents Yash Risbud and Susan Vaccaro to receive this prestigious award.
As in years past, the Citizen of the Year Awards Dinner will take place at Seasons in Washington Township. The dinner this year will be held Tuesday, May 20, 2019 and start at 6:00 PM for cocktails with a full dinner and awards to follow.

Earlier this year, we reported on important changes to the Tier 2 regime - the migration route for those undertaking skilled work in the UK.
Minimum salary threshold for experienced workers will increase to £25,000 for new applications made on or after 24 November 2016.
Migrants who are already sponsored and seeking to extend their visas after 24 November will not be affected.
There are some exceptions to the £25,000 salary threshold (eg for nurses) but these exceptions will only apply until July 2019.
Minimum salary threshold for new entrants will remain at £20,800.
Applications for restricted Certificates of Sponsorship for UK graduates who are returning from overseas will be weighted more heavily than non-UK graduates. Those UK Graduates who apply from inside the UK will continue to be exempt from the restricted certificate of sponsorship limit.
Graduate Trainees changing occupation within or at the end of their programme will not require a new application or a further Resident Labour Market Test.
Minimum salary for short term applicants will increase to £30,000.
ICT Skills Transfer route will close to new applicants.
Minimum salary for ICT Graduate Trainees will reduce from £24,800 to £23,000.
The number of ICT Graduate Trainee places an organisation can sponsor per year will increase from 5 to 20 places.
Tier 2 ICT migrants will be required to pay the Immigration Health Surcharge.
An increase to the minimum salary threshold for experienced workers under Tier 2 General from £25,000 to £30,000.
Nursing will be retained on the Shortage Occupation List but will require a Resident Labour Market Test.
Tier 2 ICT Short term route to be abolished, after which the minimum salary for all Tier 2 ICT candidates will be £41,500.
Tier 2 ICT Long Term migrants earning over £73,900 will be exempt from the requirement to have 12 months experience with their overseas company before they can be sponsored in the UK.
Introduction of the Immigration Skills Charge of £1,000 per year, per migrant. There will be reduced rates for charities and small organisations, and exemptions to the fees for those switching to Tier 2 from Tier 4, ICT Graduate Trainees and PHD level jobs. This charge is to encourage employers to invest in training resident workers.
Next week also sees the introduction of a new power under the Immigration Act 2016, allowing immigration officers to close the premises of repeat offenders for up to 48 hours where illegal working is suspected and the employer cannot show evidence that right to work checks were carried out.
Employers' right to work checks are an area which is under increased scrutiny by the UKVI with civil penalty fines of up to £20,000 per employee increasingly being issued. All employers should ensure that their right to work policies are fully compliant and up to date and that their staff are fully trained.
With recruiting from abroad becoming increasingly complex and costly it is more important than ever that employers ensure that they are fully aware of the impact of the latest changes on their recruitment, HR and mobility policies.
Boyes Turner Business Immigration Group provides Right to Work and Document Verification Training where our specialists provide interactive and practical training to ensure you and your managers have the proper procedures in place to protect your organisation.
For further advice and assistance please contact Claire Taylor-Evans or Laurence Anstis of Boyes Turner Business Immigration Group on [email protected] or [email protected].

Q: How do I set the "next" context variable in Django so I can redirect my user to the appropriate page? I'm aware that there is a context variable called "next" which allows you to specify the URL to redirect to after a page, which is commonly used when you want to redirect a user to a login page, then redirect them back to the page they were at before the login page once they've logged in.
In my views I've resorted to manually setting it via the URL such as redirecting to /login/?next=/someurl, but this isn't a clean way. I've tried googling and such, but there is surprisingly little information about it online.
How exactly do you set the context variable "next"? My site has a form that anyone can see, but only logged in users can submit. Right now if the user isn't logged in, they will get redirected to the login page with the "?next=/someurl/" attached to it so they get sent back to the original form once they log in.
However, from the login page there is a link to the sign up page for users who don't have an account, and I want to set "next" to be the original form page so that after they sign up they are redirected back to the original form. Any ideas or advice?

A: It sounds like you want to not simply use next for one redirect, but persist it across two redirects:
    Some form page -> login -> signup -> Get back to some form
For the login page by itself, Django provides some automatic help for this (if you use the built-in auth views).  But the second hop to the signup page requires some custom code explained below.
If you are using Django's built-in login view, and have created your own template for it, then Django will pass the current value of next to the template as a context variable called (appropriately) next.  You can use that in the link to your sign-up page like this:
Sign me up!

Consequently, in the view you create to handle your user signup page, the value of next will be accessible as a GET param:
def signup(request):
    if request.method == 'GET':
        next = request.GET.get('next', None)
        if next:
            # Add it as a hidden input in your signup form
            # Or re-append it as a GET param
            # Or stick it in the user's session, which is
            # what this example does:
            request.session['next'] = next

Finally, in the same signup view, when you respond to the POSTed signup form, retrieve the next value in whichever way you chose to propogate it in the GET request, and redirect to it's value.
def signup(request):
    ....
    # POST handling section
    if signup_form.is_valid():
        next = request.session.get('next', None)
        if next:
            # See caution note below!
            return redirect(next)

Caution:
Be aware that you should check and sanitize the next value before you redirect to it after processing the signup form, to prevent browser-side tampering.  For example, it's common to validate that the URL belongs to your own domain (if that's appropriate) and/or that Django's resolve function is able to successfully resolve it.

Alex Burns: "The entrepreneur-friendly environment in Lapland encourages responsible growth
Alex Burns, Managing Director of Millbrook Group, which specialises in vehicle testing, found the arctic testing environment they needed to complement their business from Lapland.
The Millbrook Proving Ground Ltd. Group is one of Europe's largest independent vehicle testing companies. At its testing grounds in Great Britain, it provides services to vehicle manufacturers and their suppliers. In 2015, the company extended its business operations by investing in Lapland.
"Part of my strategy at Millbrook is to expand the range of services offered to our customers and the enabling of winter testing was my primary goal at that time. This led us to be together with Test World, Europe's leading independent company specialised in winter testing," says Alex Burns, Managing Director of Millbrook Group.
Test World Oy, a company operating in Ivalo and specialising in the testing of vehicles, tyres and components, had just opened the world's first indoor testing hall, which made it possible to have winter conditions year-round, and another indoor test hall was under construction.
Competitive advantages from winter conditions and local collaboration
The location in the far north separates Lapland from its rivals.
"Road and air connections are good, which makes it easy for our customers to send tyres and vehicles for testing and to come and visit our test area in Ivalo. However, what makes Lapland a topnotch environment for this industry is its long, cold winter, enough snow, and a generous number of dry winter days without rain, which allow our customers to finish their tests on outdoor tracks."
According to a conservative estimate, customers of the test area bring three times more money than Test World's own turnover. The growth of Millbrook's large-scale investments has had and will continue to have a significant impact on the local economy.
"The entrepreneur-friendly environment in Lapland encourages responsible economic growth" Cooperation with the municipality of Inari has been excellent. Municipal officials have supported Test World's expansion plans while at the same time taking care of Lapland's delicate ecosystem with strict environmental requirements. We strive to be very responsible in order to minimise the impact of our actions on nature and local people, and we believe that this facilitates cooperation."
Future business opportunities in the winter testing of electric vehicles
Data communications connections are good in Lapland, but according to Alex Burns the situation could be even better in Ivalo, as Millbrock already has a 5G test platform in Great Britain. "A 5G infrastructure would create new business opportunities for Lapland – testing of connections for cars and cars in winter conditions. This would complement our services in the UK."
Burns also sees opportunities for new business in the arctic testing of electric vehicles.
"Cold weather reduces the range of electric vehicles, so ensuring reliability is critical for their future deployment. The introduction of electric vehicles will help to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and limit the impact of climate change, which is critical in protecting the magnificent winter environment in Lapland."
A cold and remote place turned out to be hospitable and easy to reach
His preconception of Lapland as a cold and distant place was initially strengthened when Alex Burns had to wait to get to Ivalo due to remodelling work at the airport.
"When I finally got there, I was impressed with the scenic landscape of the autumn and the kindness of the people. I was also positively surprised by the quality of telecommunications connections and infrastructure in the area.
However the employees of Test World still wanted to test the British manager's ability to adapt to Lapland culture in the winter. A joint evening social event included sauna, taking a dip through a hole in the ice in freezing temperatures while it snowed, and carving an evening snack from a reindeer shank. The encounter between the two cultures was successful and deals were made. The man responsible for organising the evening, Janne Seurujärvi, started as the new managing director of Test World.
Success has required collaboration with other companies in the region, as Test World's customers purchase services from airlines, carriers, hotel and restaurant operators, providers of program services, petrol stations and shops.
"One big question was hotel capacity. During the high season it can be challenging to find enough accommodation for our customers. Cooperation with the local hotel has led them to add rooms, which has made things a lot easier."
A lot of investments have been made in Ivalo to improve reachability. An expansion of the Ivalo airport, already the second since Test World joined Millbrook, is soon to be completed.

The Cross: Symbol of God's Love or Oppressive Christian Regime?
The city of Steubenville isn't very big and not much ever really happens there, but it has its history. Part of that history is Franciscan University of Steubenville. The University is the city's largest employer and brings thousands of young adults from all over the nation to the city every year – and I was one of those young adults. It is one of Steubenville's most memorable aspects and no part of the university is more memorable than its iconic chapel, seated at the center of campus. It would only seem natural then, that, in crafting a city logo featuring all of Steubenville's most celebrated features, Franciscan's Christ the King Chapel be included.
Clearly, that cross in the corner signifies the impending enslavement of the people to Christianity.
Franciscan's second most iconic location. Can't you just feel its presence oppressing you?
However, now James Bordas Jr., an attorney, has offered to represent the city pro-bono in which case Steubenville might fight to keep its logo after all.
The Freedom from Religion Foundation is now warning Steubenville to "not be duped" by such offers of charity. Because, clearly, Christians trying to help the city fight a lawsuit is the real threat to the city and taxpayers and not, say, the threat of a lawsuit itself.
It seems to me, instead, that any organization going by the name, "freedom from religion" should actually be in favor of Steubenville's logo. Franciscan University did not coerce the city to put a cross in their logo and it in no way is meant to "force religion" on people. Instead, the cross and its chapel represent a key facet in the city's identity. That should be celebrated because it shows that religious and government bodies can co-exist in peace, not as isolated polar bodies but as brothers co-exist. It shows that we are no Soviet Union or Communist China, that we do not kill or operate forced-labor camps to oppress those of differing views. Instead, it shows that we are free.
So, should Madison, Wisconsin really decide how Steubenville, Ohio presents itself? This isn't about oppressing non-Christians. This is about heritage, specifically: Steubenville's heritage – and that's something over which a group hundreds of miles away in Wisconsin should have no say.
My undergraduate career has ended and I now have my Bachelor's of Science in Nursing. I'll have some more time to commit to this blog now, at least until late June at which point I'll be flying up to Alaska for summer work.
In addition to graduating this past week, my now Alma mater announced that they will be dropping their health coverage for students because, due to Obamacare, such coverage will now be mandated to cover birth control in violation of Catholic conscience and will also cause the costs of student health insurance to triple.
While the left condemns the move as extreme, citing ad nauseum that 98% of Catholic women use contraception I stand with Franciscan University as does the overwhelming majority of its student body, men and women both. Because, as Mike Hernon put it, just because everyone might say that something is okay doesn't make it morally acceptable.
Franciscan University graduate writes about legislating morality over at Psychenomics – a new blog covering a range of topics from psychology, economics, bioethics and law.


Spiritual exercises are about the time we spend in the middle of a thing. The middle part of a thing is the hardest, and the disciplines keep you on course.
Pastor Michael Acock encourages the church to be careful in judging others. He uses the story of the woman caught in adultery as in example of the grace Jesus extends to all of us who are sinners. At the end, the only hope we have is in the blood of Jesus because none of us is able to free ourselves from sin for even one day.
Pastor Phil encourages us in the spiritual exercise of thanksgiving.

Home News Supporting nature literacy
Supporting nature literacy
Our belief is that too few people have a grounding, personal connection to the land and, far more troubling, even fewer have been schooled in the relationship between nature and cultural diversity, healthy communities and a strong economy.
We believe that a generational shift is needed in our understanding and appreciation for nature and only in the doing can we unite all Canadians to work toward a common purpose of a better nation for all life.
After all, nature is a fundamental building block of life, transcending politics, geography and age. Canadians need to be inspired to put aside their differences and engage in hard conversations, be open to thinking critically about the problems at hand and, together, rally behind promising solutions that allow innovation to trump compromise.
Ghost Bear Institute was founded to advance this vision and is underpinned by storytelling that provokes thoughtful dialogue and educational efforts that nurture a deeper sense of connection to, and shared ownership of, the issues facing Canada's biodiversity.
As such, we will strive to share better stories of our natural inheritance, engage all Canadians in direct conversation about how we can work together collaboratively and create immersive experiences that allow for individuals to rethink their role in our nation.
Most critically, we will tie together each of these threads by working diligently to equip teachers with the tools to deconstruct the complex and enliven the obscure; to help students understand that we're a nation of ecosystems and that each one offers an accessible waypoint to tangibly assess the impact of our behaviour.
This is Ghost Bear Institute and we invite you to join us in helping build our signature program, Nature Labs, and to participate in our work that supports its development: Field Trips for Adults and Community Conversations (the first of which will be held on Thursday March 22nd from 630-8pm at the Calgary Public Library's Fish Creek Branch).
We want to help thousands of teachers gain access to critical resources that enable them to deliver better education. We want to help hundreds of thousands of students are learning to understand and appreciate nature – and put that knowledge into practice by designing newer, better ideas for moving forward.
We believe in a Canada that supports nature literacy in the classroom and a country where millions act with a foundation of nature literacy, making our environmental discourse constructive and productive.
This is our dream. We hope it's yours too. Together, let's make it a reality.

Bloomberg: Obama Should 'Go Around Congress' to Appoint ATF Director
By Melanie Arter | January 14, 2013 | 9:07pm EST
Mayor Michael Bloomberg of New York (AP Photo)
(CNSNews.com) – New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg on Monday urged President Barack Obama to make a recess appointment for the head of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, as one of several steps that Obama can take to on gun control "without congressional approval at any time he chooses with just the stroke of a pen."
"The president can make a recess appointment to head the federal Bureau of Alcohol and Firearms. The ATF as it's called hasn't had a director for six years. Can you imagine how much outrage there'd be if we'd been without a Homeland Security Secretary for six years?" Bloomberg said.
Bloomberg delivered opening remarks at a summit by the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health and the Center for Gun Policy and Research. He is the co-chair of Mayors Against Illegal Guns.

"This is as much a public safety threat as it would be if there weren't a secretary for Homeland Security, and if Congress keeps blocking the ATF appointees, all the president has to do is make a recess appointment. It is relatively easy, and it has been done many times to go around Congress," Bloomberg added.
"You can't have an agency without somebody running it that's gonna do the job that it was created for," he said.
"But there are other steps that President Obama can take without congressional approval at any time he chooses with just the stroke of a pen. Vice President Biden understands this, and we hope his recommendations [on gun control] will include at least these four steps that we've urged him to do," Bloomberg said.
The mayor urged Obama to order federal agencies to submit relevant data to the National Gun Background Check Database, "because every missing record is a potential murder in the making."
Bloomberg called on the president to direct the Justice Department to "make it a priority of prosecuting convicted criminals who provide false personal information during gun purchase background checks."
During 2010, the last year that data was collected, only 44 such cases were prosecuted out of 76,000 that the Justice Department referred to the FBI, Bloomberg claimed.
"These are felony cases involving criminals trying to buy guns, and yet our federal government is prosecuting less than one-tenth of one percent of them. It is shameful, and it has to end, and the president can do it by just picking up the phone and saying to his Justice Department, 'This is your job. Go do it, or I'll get somebody that will,'" Bloomberg said.
Bloomberg also called on Obama to stop supporting the Tiahrt order, which the mayor said, "keeps the public in the dark about who are the gun traffickers and how they operate."

Victims in fatal Thursday crash identified

Jamie and Emma Willert died in a head-on crash on I-76 Thursday evening.

By Paul Albani-Burgio | palbani-burgio@prairiemountainmedia.com and Brush News-Tribune | Loveland Reporter-Herald
PUBLISHED: March 20, 2018 at 5:21 pm | UPDATED: April 24, 2019 at 11:26 am
Colorado State Patrol has released the names of the adult victims of the Thursday evening wrong-way crash on Interstate 76 that killed a mother and daughter and sent two others to hospitals with serious injuries.
The crash occurred at about 6:40 p.m. on Thursday when a Ford Escape containing a female driver and her two children that was driving westbound on the eastbound side of I-76 collided head-on with a Ford F-150 pickup truck.
The driver of the Escape was 31-year-old Wiggins resident Jamie Willert, Sgt. Rob Madden of Colorado State Patrol said. Willert was declared dead at the scene.
The pickup was driven by Travis Gilliland, who is also 31 and a resident of Wiggins. Gilliland was transported to Platte Valley Medical Center in Brighton. The information available to Madden indicates he remains there, Madden said.
Willert's four-old-daughter was also declared dead at the scene while her two-year-old son was transported to Children's Hospital in Aurora.
A GoFundMe fundraising page that has been set up to help cover medical costs for the two-year-old and funeral costs for Jamie and her daughter identifies the children as Emma and Hunter Willert.
That page, which can be accessed at gofundme.com/willert-family, had received 113 donations totaling $9,185 as of Sunday morning.
According to an updated posted on the GoFundMe page Saturday, Hunter is now out of the hospital and home with his dad, Ross. The page notes that he suffered a fracture in his spine as well as a broken arm.
Madden said Hunter was restrained in a child seat at the time of the accident. According to the crash report, investigators are still looking into whether Emma was in a booster or child seat as required by law.
Both Jamie and Gilliland were wearing seatbelts at the time of the accident, Madden said.
On Friday, Trooper Gary Cutler of Colorado State Patrol said cell phone use was being considered as a factor in why Jamie was driving the wrong on the interstate. However, Madden said Sunday that he did not have any more information pertaining to that.
Madden did say that alcohol, drugs and excessive speed are not currently suspected as contributing factors.
"This one is still very much under investigation," Madden said. "When there is a crash involving the death of a child it is something that is looked at with a serious eye and it'll be under investigation for some time."

A few months ago, in April, the Supreme Court handed down its decision in Kiobel v. Royal Dutch Petroleum Corp., giving guidance on the Alien Tort Statute. In this rather lengthy post, I'm going to explore some ideas I'm using in an essay on Kiobel for the Cato Supreme Court Law Review's upcoming issue; I'm still exploring my readings of the case and have not fully settled on them, and I also want to draw in a new upcoming case, Bauman v. DaimlerChrysler, discussed toward the end of the post. Kiobel has occasioned much discussion in lawyer circles since it was handed down; Opinio Juris had a fine online symposium on it (see the related posts links at end of this linked post), and SCOTUSblog has a great roundup of the relevant documents and commentary.
When one of my nephews fell ill with a strange pneumonia-like illness as a boy in the 1980s, his mother was told he had something called "Valley Fever." My sister and her family lived in Bakersfield, California, and it was something I had heard of – my parents had lived there for a couple of years when I was young – but had more or less forgotten. He got better, but I'm told still carries the fungus in his lungs.
Coccidioidomycosis used to be regarded as a rare disease, limited – I remember the maps from the 1970s and 80s – to the areas around Bakersfield, CA (the San Joaquin Valley) and a completely different location around Pima, AZ. That was it. The disease is caused by microscopic spores in the soil – dry and dusty soil in these locations – that, once disturbed, can float airborne and lodge in the moist environment of the lungs – or many other places in the body. My nephew probably picked up the disease playing the Bakersfield dirt at his house or at school. Doctors were able to treat his follow-on medical problems – in his case, pneumonia and lung conditions – but they had no treatment and no prevention for the spores themselves.
Happy 4th of July, everyone. This is a holiday in which I think about the Declaration of Independence, but sometimes find myself, like today, drifting to think about America's national anthem. Views on the Star-Spangled Banner usually start – very sensibly – from the concession that as a piece of music, it's mostly un-singable and not very attractive as a song. But most countries have fairly lousy national anthems, being accidents of history and all and America is no exception, so get used to it.
I don't think this is quite true. Three terrific national anthems, and I'm sure there are others: Germany's is genuinely beautiful (taken from a slow movement in a Haydn quartet). South Africa's is what a good, idealistic national hymn should be, and a lovely song to boot. And, upon hearing the Marseillaise, who can resist at least a twitch to join the French Foreign Legion? Pour la France and all. A touching moment of one of the recent French elections, after all, is a split screen YouTube video of the two candidates and their parties on election night, each singing the French national anthem with a heart and soul that I've never heard an American confab match.
It's not for want of patriotic spirit. But the musical hurdles are daunting – starting with a range of an octave and a fifth. There's a reason, in other words, for the evolution – at ball games, of course, but if you look around, you'll see a wide variety of settings where it is customary to open with the national anthem – toward having someone else sing the song while everyone else puts hand over heart and mostly mouths the words.
[T]he Administration has been roundly [criticized] for suggesting that a reporter who knowingly solicits classified information might be committing a crime. At the risk of violating the old adage about not picking a fight with someone who buys printer's ink by the barrel, I want to take this on.
The Department of Justice did not claim that the Fox News reporter in the [Stephen Jin-Woo] Kim case committed a crime merely by publishing classified information. According to the Government's filing in the case, the reporter in question actively asked people with access to classified information to break the law by providing him classified information he could publish. He used false names and "dead drop" email accounts to do so. In other words, he wasn't someone to whom a whistleblower came to disclose information; he was actively asking people to violate the law, and enabling them to do so.

On Friday 22nd Otherworld Exotics made an appearance at Odenton Regional Library, part of the Anne Arundel County Public Libraries here in Maryland. Jen, our librarian friend, invited us to join her for an event called Hedgehog Storytime. We will be doing this event again, and it will be advertised here on the website as well as on Twitter and Facebook. We will advertise every event we do here and through our Twitter, so keep your eyes peeled.
Let us know if you plan on being at an event – if you can't make it, we can always schedule a date for you to come and meet the hedgehogs (and other animals) another time.
Hedgehog Storytime was a fantastic event. In addition to the usual storytime, we added an educational element after the reading finished. We explained basic hedgehog facts including the number of species, what they eat, how long they live, etc. – and followed this discussion with a chance for the children and adults present to actually touch three different hedgehogs. This period was a mixture of petting hedgehogs, answering questions, and in general chatting with the kids. They were particularly enamored with Pimento, who we described as being 'the spiciest hedgehog.' He was indeed the most skittish of the bunch we brought (Pimento, Pan, Khaleesi – along with Jen's hedgehog Kibibi) but the children nonetheless loved him. He is going to be a great ambassador, and we can't wait to experience future event with him.
This event attracted over 140 participants across two sessions.
We're planning two more Hedgehog Storytimes with Jen this year, and are in tentative talks with the library for our Spooky Animal Storytime including our rats around fall.
Watch this space for updates! We hope to see you at future events.
