Nowadays some people are suffering from kidney disease which accompany so many symptoms. So they try their best to find a effective way to treat kidney disease. The creatinine is the direct reaction of kidney disease, and the creatinine 6.8 is the sign of stage 4 kidney disease, which is so serious and should be paying more attention to it. There is a good news to you, because there are some different treatment options to reduce creatinine 6.8 and to treat the kidney disease.
Stem cells is a good option to treat the kidney disease and help patients to reduce creatinine 6.8. Stem cells are undifferentiated biological cells that can differentiate into specialized cells and which can divide to produce more stem cells. They are found in multicellular organisms. There are three known accessible sources of autologous adult stem cells in humans: the first one is bone marrow cells which requires extraction by drilling into bone. The second one is lipid cells, which requires extraction by liposuction. The last one is blood cells, which requires extraction through apheresis. The stem can differentiate into renal inherent cells and renal stromal cells, which can repair and reconstruct the kidney function. When the kidney functions are improved, a lot of waste will discharge out of the body, so the creatinine 6.8 will decline, too.
Micro-Chinese Medical Osmotherapy is another good option to treat the kidney disease, witch is the original creation of our hospital. The main process of this therapy is that we choose the Chinese medical herbs which is suitable to the patients' symptoms. And then we make them into micro powders. Next, the micro Chinese medical powders are cover on patients' skin which can penetrate into the kidney parts with our professional equipments.
I think you must want to know how this therapy can reduce creatinine 6.8. The active Chinese medical powders can repair the damaged kidney cells, and the glomerular filtration rate will increase a lot. Then the blood toxin and electrolyte will discharge out of the body. And at the same time, the function of absorbing the useful substance will improved. After some times you apply this therapy, your whole blood circulation will improved gradually. As a result, your reduce 6.8 will decline, too.
Our hospital has helped a large amount of foreign kidney patients treat their kidney disease and decline the creatinine 6.8 successfully. If you want to apply our therapies you can contact our online doctors or send emails to kidneyhospitalabroad@hotmail.com. I am looking forward to seeing you in our hospital and you must can receive a satisfactory treatment. what's more? You also can make a lot of Chinese friends.

Alacazar created on 08th of December 2018, and is currently 21 years old (69 hours played).
It had been disappointing, to be sure. There had been an anticipation that the Illithid Queen would be interested in mentoring Alacazar and the fleeting visits had betrayed what he had thought were a shared look between her and he that "Soon, I will call for you." As his seventeenth birthday approached, the things he would say to her when finally allowed to speak and a resolve to impress swirled about his head. Then that day came. Whispers that the queen had descended to join the rest of the hive had been heard all morning and afternoon. Finally, as night began to fall, he saw her sitting on a bench, surrounded by her royal guard. "Alacazar, approach," said one of the guardsmen gruffly. She slowly stood up and looked him over. "I find you unfit," she said and sat back down. In that moment, Alacazar knew that was all there was to be. She did not vacillate, she did not reconsider. What was so offensive to her tastes he would never know, and he knew that he would never get an opportunity to approach or ask. So began a new life for Alacazar, one away from The Great Hive.
Swirls of black mist surround a floating octopus man. His skin is black and appears to be wet to the touch. Thin and scarred, his limbs hang limply by his tiny frame. Eyes blinking slowly, sliding over a thin layer of slime. He would probably only be about four feet tall, were he standing on the ground, tiny compared to anyone but a gnome.

ESA's Rosetta spacecraft has revealed a surprisingly large region around its host comet devoid of any magnetic field.
When ESA's Giotto flew past Comet Halley three decades ago, it found a vast magnetic-free region extending more than 4000 km from the nucleus. This was the first observation of something that scientists had until then only thought about but had never seen.
Interplanetary space is pervaded by the solar wind, a flow of electrically charged particles streaming from the Sun and carrying its magnetic field across the Solar System. But a comet pouring lots of gas into space obstructs the solar wind.
At the interface between the solar wind and the coma of gas around the active comet, particle collisions as well as sunlight can knock out electrons from the molecules in the coma, which are ionised and picked up by the solar wind. This process slows the solar wind, diverting its flow around the comet and preventing it from directly impacting the nucleus.
Along with the solar wind, its magnetic field is unable to penetrate the environment around the comet, creating a region devoid of magnetic field called a diamagnetic cavity.
Prior to Rosetta arriving at Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, scientists had hoped to observe such a magnetic field-free region in the environment of this comet. The spacecraft carries a magnetometer as part of the Rosetta Plasma Consortium suite of sensors (RPC-MAG), whose measurements were already used to demonstrate that the comet nucleus is not magnetised.
However, since Rosetta's comet is much less active than Comet Halley, the scientists predicted that a diamagnetic cavity could form only in the months around perihelion – the closest point to the Sun on the comet's orbit – but that it would extend only 50–100 km from the nucleus.
During 2015, the increased amounts of dust dragged into space by the outflowing gas became a significant problem for navigation close to the comet. To keep Rosetta safe, trajectories were chosen such that by the end of July 2015, a few weeks before perihelion, it was some 170 km away from the nucleus. As a result, scientists considered that detecting signs of the magnetic field-free bubble would be impossible.
"We had almost given up on Rosetta finding the diamagnetic cavity, so we were astonished when we eventually found it," says Charlotte Götz of the Institute for Geophysics and extraterrestrial Physics in Braunschweig, Germany.
Charlotte is the lead author of a new study, published in the journal Astronomy and Astrophysics, presenting the detection of a diamagnetic cavity obtained by RPC-MAG on 26 July. The paper describes one of the most spectacular measurements from almost 700 detections of regions with no magnetic field made by Rosetta at the comet since June 2015.
"We were able to detect the cavity, and on many occasions, because it is much bigger and dynamic than we had expected," adds Charlotte.
To investigate why the magnetic field-free cavity is so much bigger than predicted, Charlotte and her colleagues looked at measurements performed around the same time by other instruments, such as Rosetta's scientific camera, OSIRIS, and the Rosetta Orbiter Spectrometer for Ion and Neutral Analysis instrument, ROSINA, to verify whether any anomalous changes in the comet's activity could be pushing the cavity away from the nucleus.
While one of the cavity detections, on 29 July, occurred in conjunction with a strong outburst of gas and dust recorded by other instruments on Rosetta, this seems to be an isolated case. Almost all of the other observations of magnetic field-free regions, including the one recorded on 26 July, were not accompanied by any appreciable increase of outgassing.
"To account for such a big cavity in the simulations, we would need the outgassing rate to be 10 times higher than was measured at the comet by ROSINA," says co-author Karl-Heinz Glassmeier from Technische Universität Braunschweig, Germany, principal investigator of RPC-MAG.
The most likely explanation seems to lie, instead, in the dynamical nature of the cavity boundary.
Boundaries between plasma regions with different properties are often unstable, and small oscillations can arise in the pile-up region of the solar wind, where it encounters the magnetic field-free region, on the Sun-facing side of the comet. If these oscillations propagate and get amplified along the boundary, in the direction opposite the Sun, they could easily cause the cavity to grow in size.
Such a moving instability would also explain why the measurements of magnetic field-free regions are sporadic and mainly span several minutes, with the 26 July one lasting 25 minutes and the longest one, recorded in November, about 40 minutes. The short duration of the detections is not a result of Rosetta crossing the cavity – the spacecraft moves much too slowly with respect to the comet – but of the magnetic field-free regions repeatedly passing through the spacecraft.
"What we are seeing is not the main part of the cavity but the smaller pockets at the cavity boundary, which are occasionally pushed farther away from the nucleus by the waves propagating along the boundary," adds Charlotte.
Scientists are now busy analysing all the magnetic field-free events recorded by Rosetta, to learn more about the properties of the plasma in the comet environment and its interaction with the solar wind. After perihelion, as the comet moved away from the Sun and its outgassing and dust production rate declined, the spacecraft was able to move closer to the nucleus, and the magnetometer continued detecting magnetic field-free regions for several months, until the latest detection in February 2016.
"Three decades ago, Giotto's detection at Comet Halley was a great success, because it was the first confirmation of the existence of a diamagnetic cavity at a comet," says Matt Taylor, Rosetta Project Scientist at ESA.
"First detection of a diamagnetic cavity at comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko," by C. Götz et al. is published in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics. The results will be presented at the 50th ESLAB Symposium "From Giotto to Rosetta", held 14–18 March in Leiden, the Netherlands.
Comet's firework display ahead of perihelion11 August 2015 In the approach to perihelion over the past few weeks, Rosetta has been witnessing growing activity from Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko, with one dramatic outburst event proving so powerful that it even pushed away the incoming solar wind.
Rosetta and Philae find comet not magnetised 14 April 2015 Measurements made by Rosetta and Philae during the probe's multiple landings on Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko show that the comet's nucleus is not magnetised.
Ultraviolet study reveals surprises in comet coma 02 June 2015 Rosetta's continued close study of Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko has revealed an unexpected process at work, causing the rapid breakup of water and carbon dioxide molecules spewing from the comet's surface.

How to Pick the Best HyperX Headset for PlayStation: A Step-by-Step Guide
When shopping for a headset for your PlayStation, it's wise to consider the various features that make up a high-quality headset. Some of the factors to keep in mind when shopping for the Best HyperX Headset for PlayStation include:
Microphone quality
Now let's explore each in more detail.
Comfort is a crucial factor to consider when choosing the best HyperX headset for PlayStation. Gaming sessions can be long, and if the headset is uncomfortable to wear, it can cause headaches, neck pain, and even ear fatigue. A good HyperX headset should be lightweight and have a comfortable design that conforms to the shape of the head. Memory foam ear cushions are an excellent option as they provide a snug fit and reduce pressure on the ears.
The headband of the headset should also be adjustable and have ample padding to avoid pressure on the top of the head. The ear cups should rotate and tilt to fit different head shapes and sizes perfectly. Another important aspect of comfort is the ventilation of the ear cups. HyperX headsets with breathable ear cups are ideal as they prevent the buildup of heat and moisture, which can cause discomfort.
Essentially, the overall design of the HyperX headset should be ergonomic and easy to adjust. This ensures that the headset is comfortable to wear for extended periods, and players can focus on their gameplay without any distractions.
HyperX headsets are renowned for their superior sound quality, and their range of headsets for PlayStation is no exception. Whether you're playing a game or watching a movie, the crispness and clarity of sound you'll get with a HyperX headset will make all the difference.
Many of the headsets feature 50mm directional drivers for superior sound immersion, as well as noise-canceling features that help ensure that any external noise is reduced to a minimum. On top of this, HyperX headsets offer an impressive bass response and mid-range accuracy, creating an immersive audio experience.
Headsets with a wide frequency response, such as the HyperX Cloud Stinger S, can capture and deliver all sounds, from low to high, providing a more accurate and detailed audio experience.
A durable headset can withstand the rigors of regular use, such as being dropped or bumped, without breaking or malfunctioning. This ensures that the headset lasts long and provides a consistent gaming experience.
One of the key indicators of a durable headset is the materials used in its construction. Headsets made with high-quality materials, such as aluminum and steel, are more durable than those made with plastic or other lower-quality materials. The HyperX Cloud II, for example, is made of durable aluminum frames and steel sliders, making it a robust and long-lasting option.
HyperX offers a wide range of headsets at different price points, so it's essential to find one that fits your budget. If you're looking for a budget-friendly option, the HyperX Cloud Stinger is a great choice. It offers a relatively low price for a comfortable design and decent audio quality. However, it may not have all the advanced features that more expensive models have.
On the other hand, if you're looking for a high-end HyperX headset, the HyperX Cloud II Wireless is a great option. It offers wireless connectivity, 7.1 surround sound, and a built-in microphone, making it perfect for gamers who want an immersive gaming experience
It's also important to remember that the headset's price does not always indicate its quality. Sometimes, the more expensive headset may not have all the features you need. Therefore, it's essential to consider your specific needs and preferences when making a decision.
When finding the best HyperX headset for PlayStation, compatibility is an important factor to consider. The headset should be compatible with the console and any additional accessories you might have, such as controllers and other peripherals. When shopping for a headset, ensure that your chosen model is compatible with your setup.
You should also look at the connection type and make sure that your PlayStation supports it. Many HyperX headsets are designed to connect to your console via a wired connection, such as a USB or 3.5mm audio jack. However, some newer models may also offer wireless connectivity options, such as Bluetooth or wireless dongles, which can provide an even more seamless gaming experience.
Surround sound technology allows gamers to hear audio from all angles, providing an immersive and realistic gaming experience. With surround sound, players can hear the direction of footsteps, gunfire, and other in-game sounds, giving them a tactical advantage in multiplayer games.
The HyperX Cloud Stinger S is an excellent option for gamers looking for a surround sound headset for their PlayStation. It offers a high-quality audio experience with its 7.1 surround sound capabilities, providing gamers with an immersive gaming experience. The 50mm directional drivers ensure that all sounds, from low to high, are captured and delivered to the listener, ensuring that every detail is heard.
A good quality headset should have a clear, noise-canceling microphone that can capture your voice accurately. It should also be able to block out background noise so that your voice comes through loud and clear. Additionally, the headset should have adjustable settings to customize the audio experience. This allows you to find the perfect balance between volume and clarity for maximum enjoyment.
Some HyperX headsets also have built-in features such as echo cancellation and noise reduction. These features are useful for reducing or eliminating feedback and other distortions in your audio. With these features, you can be sure that your audio is always clear and of the highest quality. Whether streaming, gaming, or communicating with friends, the HyperX headset will ensure that your voice is always heard clearly.
What to Know Before Buying the Best HyperX Headsets for PlayStation
When buying a HyperX headset for PlayStation, there are a few things you need to keep in mind. First, make sure that the headset you are buying is compatible with your PlayStation console. Many HyperX headsets are designed for specific consoles, such as the PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 5, so be sure to check compatibility before making your purchase. Next, consider the type of gaming you will be doing. If you are primarily playing first-person shooter games, you may want a headset with a built-in microphone for online multiplayer. On the other hand, if you are mostly playing single-player games, a headset without a microphone may be sufficient.
Using HyperX Headsets for PlayStation: What It's Like
Using a HyperX headset for gaming on your PlayStation console is a great experience. HyperX headsets are renowned for their great sound quality, comfort, and affordability. With the right HyperX headset, you can enjoy an immersive gaming experience with crystal-clear sound and crisp highs and lows.
When using a HyperX headset, you can expect a comfortable fit as they come with adjustable headbands and foam earpads. The earpads and headbands also provide noise isolation to help you focus on your game and block any distracting background noise. They come in different sizes, so you can find the perfect fit for your head.

I agree with another poster. This app could be great! However, after playing with it for a day, I realized it's not at all intuitive. I couldn't get my IMAP email to connect no matter how many configs I tried. It'd be a fun app if I could figure out how to configure the Twitter and Facebook accounts but, as I mentioned, setup is not intuitive at all. The help instructions on the website are overwhelming for someone who doesn't have a ton of experiene with databases. I tend to learn visually, so having a clear cut "how to" video that helps with various setups, step by step, would be super helpful.
I couldn't find a way to change my privacy prefs as far as connecting to my calendar, etc as I mistakenly skipped that section during setup. I even unistalled the app and reinstalled it and it didn't give me the option to change that at the startup. In fact, it didn't give me the option due to the previous setup.
I also emailed support twice and have yet to receive a response.
I look forward to following their progress to see if they make improvements to the interface, support and response because I'd like to use this app.
Best Productivity App on the Web.
I have given them 5 stars before; and they continue to deserve it. The support is the best on the web for any product I have used. This is designed for people like me - a practicing lawyer with a constantly adjusting schedule, adjusting priorities, and adjusting workload - trying to find some balance between work and personal life. There is a long learning curve and it takes some time and patience to master it. But, I continue to learn new features and new ways of doing things on it. This has has to be a gem like discovery for those who use GTD or one of its variants.
iCloud is the obvious choice for sync, and LightArrow says it will work, but it doesn't work on the Mac.
Only Dropbox, Google Drive, Box, and MS OneDrive are supported, despite the instructions in the documentation.
I like the concept and the app. It takes some gettign used to and a lot of customization to make it feel good to me. But, I'm not wasting my time, if I have to use one of those sync services.

It's been a week of seeing my boys growing up, each in their own element.
Brian had his first basketball game and scored basket after basket for his team...a total of half the points on the scoreboard for his team were his.
Which, and someday he will read this, just makes me smile. The first year he played basketball he begged, wanting to be just like his older brother...who, by the way, started out as a scrawny little pip squeak on the court himself. Brian was the one who would stop the ball while it was in play, turn to the coach and want to have a discussion about how the game was going and perhaps, how it could be done a little bit better. The fact that his coach was the former university basketball coach made it even more hilarious.
But Brian has more perseverance than anyone I have ever met...and he has been practicing and practicing. And this week, it paid off.
Then I listened to Matthew perform earlier this week and again last night. Wow. He sings. He plays trumpet. And lo and behold, the kid plays piano like nobody's business.
His talent comes from me.
And finally, Alex had a game on Friday night against a private high school that has more kids move on to the NBA and NFL than any other high school in our whole hot diggety long state. They recruit kids from everywhere and are known for their amazing sports teams.
And our local, neighborhood high school played them in a tournament. We beat them last year, so they came armed with their varsity players (we came armed with our JV players) and in the end, we lost by 3.
Oh...and Darryl Strawberry? Number 35 is MY son. Yep. So yell away. I heard ya. We all heard ya. While you kept screaming, 'Who had #35?' I proudly thought, 'me.' I had him (in 52 minutes, thankyouverymuch) and he's MY son.
The crowning moment of this weekend was at today's concert. I was sitting by some people who asked if I knew anyone in the concert and I said yes...that I was here because my son not only sings, but plays in the orchestra, too.
No mention of that guy that I like so much, who does have a small part in the 5 concerts they put on.
At some point, someone came along and said hello and introduced me as Dr Busch's wife. The people I was sitting near asked me about it and I kind of did and 'oh yeah, I'm married to the director' kind of thing.
The woman next to me looked at me and said, 'Oh. He looks so much younger.'
The way I heard that is 'oh. he looks young and you do not. you look old and frumpy and he looks fabulous and great. so there'.
Gotta love how a woman's mind works.
I came home and called everyone I know and they all had the same kind of guffaw when I told them the story.
Gotta love how a woman's girlfriends work.
oh no she di-int

I am sitting here listening to a wonderful John Rutter choral CD and thinking about how much I am going to miss hearing Kate sing in a choir next year. What a blessing for you to be able to enjoy your family's concerts. Kate has her choral concert on Friday and show choir concert next week. I'll enjoy them while I can!
Kate will be very far away next year. She will be going to Capernwray Bible School in northern England. It's a one-year program for 170 students, and she will live and study in a real castle. Then she'll come back here and pursue her degree in music therapy, probably at Slippery Rock University in Pennsylvania. It's still far away, but at least it's not across the ocean.

Maddie & Tae's 'Die From A Broken Heart' Comes From A Very Personal Place
Maddie & Tae; Photo by Carlos Ruiz
Maddie & Tae - Photo by Carlos Ruiz
Taylor Dye was in the midst of personal heartbreak when the duo wrote the song.
When it was time for Maddie Marlow and Taylor Dye of the platinum-selling duo Maddie & Tae to select a new single, they looked to their fans to help them make their decision.
With over 23 million streams, "Die From A Broken Heart" was clearly a fan-favorite and ultimately the top contender for the duo's next single.
Co-written by Marlow and Dye alongside Jonathan Singleton and Deric Ruttan, "Die From A Broken Heart" is written from the perspective a grief-stricken woman who turns to her mother for support after a breakup.
"How does he sleep at night? Momma, the nerve of this guy/ To leave me so easy/ Am I gonna be alright? I wanna kick myself for falling so hard/ Momma, can you die from a broken heart," the duo sings throughout the chorus.
The song, which puts the duo's signature harmonies on display, was born during a written session that happened to take place just after Dye experienced personal heartbreak. In order to make it through the session without breaking down, she made the choice to strictly focus on her work, rather than letting her emotions get the best of her.
"We wrote 'Die from a Broken Heart' two weeks after an actual break up that I had gone through," Dye explains. "It's hard for me to really dig into my emotions in the midst of my emotions. I'm more of like an after the point, and then I can kind of revisit it and work through everything. But I turned off my emotions for the most part during that writing session just to look at it from a logical and practical standpoint, just so that I wasn't a mess during writing it."
Dye admits this was "probably the hardest" song to write for the duo's latest project because she "felt everything that the song says."
"Die From A Broken Heart" is featured on Maddie & Tae's One Heart To Another EP. The five-song release is the follow-up to the duo's 2015 debut, Start Here.
Fans can catch the duo on the road with superstar Carrie Underwood on her 55-city Cry Pretty Tour 360 throughout the summer and fall.

The 36 states of the federation and the Federal Capital Territory increased their domestic debts by N1.64tn in the past three years, available data have shown.
According to statistics obtained from the Debt Management Office, the subnational governments raised their domestic borrowings from N1.71tn as of December 2014 to N3.35tn as of December 2017.
This shows that the subnational governments ramped up their domestic indebtedness by N1.64tn within a period of three years ending December 31, 2017. This shows an increase of 95.9 per cent in the local debts within the three-year period.
Within the same period, the domestic debt of the Federal Government rose from N7.9tn to N12.59tn. This means that within the timeframe, the domestic debt of the Federal Government rose by N4.69tn.
This means that the domestic debt owed by the Federal Government rose in the three-year period by 59.37 per cent.
Although the domestic debt of the Federal Government exceeds that of the subnational governments put together, the states grew their domestic debts by a higher percentage of 95.9 per cent compared to the 59.37 per cent for the central government.
The resort by the various tiers of government across the country to the debt market, experts argued, has had some negative impacts on the economy.
One of such impacts is the rise in interest rates. As a result of increasing rate of borrowing, the country has been spending much on servicing the domestic debts.
In the first nine months of 2017, for instance, the Federal Government spent a total of N1.24tn on domestic debt servicing.
Apart from the sheer increase in the cost of borrowing, another effect of the government's increased presence in the domestic debt market is the crowding out of the private sector from the market.
The logic is simple: Those with resources are more comfortable lending to the government and its agencies than lending to the private sector, because the possibility of default is higher in the private sector.
The increasing involvement of the state governments in the domestic debt market has also raised concern in some circles. The Social Development Integrated Centre, a coalition of civil society organisations, for instance, has raised the alarm over the states' increasing debts.
The Head, National Advocacy of the group, Vivian Bellonwu-Okafor, recently asked the National Assembly to come up with a legislation that would stipulate stringent conditions for states to borrow money.
According to the group, it is unpalatable for some states to be paying as much as N500m for debt servicing on a monthly basis.
Bellonwu-Okafor stated, "State-level debts have become a considerable source of worry to well-meaning Nigerians. As it is well-known today, many states in the country are insolvent and are barely surviving on monthly allocations from the Federation Accounts Allocation Committee.
The President, African Development Bank, Dr. Akinwumi Adesina, a former agriculture minister in Nigeria, said the quality of the management of debt was more important than the size of the debt.
He stated, "Now, the domestic debt is so high. In the case of Nigeria, the bulk of the debt is domestic debt at very high interest rates, which is where the challenge is. Nigeria's debt to Gross Domestic Product ratio is not high for a country the size of Nigeria. That is not where the challenge is. It is that the state governments and the Federal Government over time have accumulated so much domestic debts and, trying to service them has been a real challenge.
"The most important thing is the quality of public expenditure and what has been invested in and what the revenue profile that allows you to implement that.
Beyond debt, however, some experts are calling for other forms of raising money to finance projects and development across the country.
The Director-General, Bureau of Pubic Enterprises, Mr. Alex Okoh, thinks that selling some assets may be healthier than borrowing, while his counterpart at the Fiscal Responsibility Commission, Mr. Victor Muruako, is of the view that harnessing internal sources and making government agencies efficient will release resources to the government.
Adesina, on the other hand, called for the deployment of pension funds and the Sovereign Wealth Fund in financing development projects.
He said, "What sense does it make if I take my SWF and I am investing it outside? I am making money on the fund but I don't have power; I don't have roads or rails; I don't have anything. How can you compete? You can never compete. The places you are putting the money have those things. So, it makes absolute great sense to invest the SWF in assets.
So, rather than the SWFs investing outside where they are earning real negative returns, they should be invested within, Adesina added.

Q: OpenCV: How to view existing JNI cpp bindings How can you view or generate the Swig cpp bindings bundled up in the .so files for opencv?
This to see how jobjects or others, get converted and used into existing native opencv methods.
For example: A method takes 2 java Mat as inputs and return a java Mat ,
JNIEXPORT jobject JNICALL Java_com_generic_cats_ndog_customNativeMethod(
        JNIEnv *env,
        jobject instance,
        jobject mat1,
        jobject mat2)

// do some operations

return mat1;

Knowing that this specific template probabably is already being used by some native method, it would be nice to be able to lookup the JNICALL of those existing implementation for type conversion reference.

Sleep Apnoea is a sleeping disorder that you might not even realise you are suffering from, usually your partner will be more aware of it than you are. The problem itself is a disrupted breathing pattern during sleep caused by a closing of the upper airways of your lungs when you relax and a period of time when your body stops breathing. This results in you losing a few breathes, lasting a period of around ten to twenty seconds (each occasion is referred to as an apnoea). Sometimes this might wake you up but more often than not you will simply resume breathing normally again without being aware of the disruption and without realising that you have woken up for a few seconds and that your sleep has been disrupted. Mild sleep apnoea is when between 5 and 15 episodes of apnoea occur within an hour, moderate between 15 to 30 and severe sleep apnoea is anything above this.
Who suffers from Sleep Apnoea?
Sleep Apnoea effects 1-4% of the population, usually these are men over 40 years of age with a sedentary job, for example driving or office work. Women are half as likely to have/suffer from sleep apnoea until they go through the menopause, when they start to suffer as much as men.
Those who are overweight are the most at risk of developing sleep apnoea and about 2/3rd of patient with the condition are overweight. This is partly because the extra weight upon the neck pushes down and closes the throat whilst asleep. It is no surprise that most people who suffer from sleep apnoea have a larger than normal neck.
Sleep apnoea can be seen in about 3% children, but the normal reason for this occurring is enlarged tonsils, easily treatable by having them removed.
At the Sleeping Disorders Centre you will undergo a series of tests and assessments before the most suitable form of treatment is recommended.
Once you have been diagnosed, Mr Oko and his team can take a number of steps to change your lifestyle in order to help prevent sleep apnoea.
You may be advised to lose weight. This will reduce the amount of weight on your neckline so making it less likely to push down on your windpipe.
Alcohol and smoking can both cause and exacerbate sleep apnoea and you may be advised to reduce drinking or to stop smoking.
Sleeping on your side can greatly improve your breathing patterns and you may be given strategies to make this simple change.
Sometimes simple lifestyle changes will not help with your sleep apnoea and further measures will need to be taken.
If you suffer from moderate or severe sleep apnoea and you do not respond to lifestyle changes then you might be recommended a CPAP machine while you sleep.
This is a mask attached to a machine that helps you to breathe at night by providing a steady supply of air. The air is at a slightly higher pressure than normal, which enables your throat to remain clear. This may seem an odd solution, having to be worn every night continuously, however if you persevere with it the CPAP machine can improve your sleeping immediately and have a huge impact on your waking life. This is the safest and most tried and tested solution to sleep apnoea and recommended by NICE (National Institute of Clinical Excellence).
Some types of obstructive sleep apnoea, is caused by the lower jaw being too far back. In order to rectify this, a specially made device can be used to pull your jaw forward enabling your airway to be clearer throughout your sleep. A mandibular device is usually used for those who have mild to moderate cases of sleep apnoea, or those who can't sleep using a CPAP device.
Surgery is not usually a first option for helping Obstructive Sleep Apnoea sufferers and in Mr Oko's practice only about 11% of all patients have surgery. However in some cases, especially children, the cause for Obstructive Sleep Apnoea might be enlarged tonsils or adenoids. Removing them, therefore, removes the problem.


If you plan to travel to Denmark to receive medical treatment, you must apply for a Schengen Visa. If you need someone to accompany you, he or she can also be granted a Schengen Visa.
Because of the situation in Palestine it is very difficult for you to get a visa for a medical visit.

You may not have heard of the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), but you've probably heard of LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) certification for buildings, which is the credentialing the USGBC provides for building construction. Here, we are covered by the USGBC Nebraska Flatwater Chapter.
The USGBC understands that the built environment is important, but it envisions "buildings and communities that will regenerate and sustain the health and vitality of all life within a generation." Essentially, the built environment needs to work with nature instead of against it, or by dominating it. Working against nature can negatively affect our health and overall wellbeing.
The USGBC is asking everybody to spend 30 minutes outside in nature for the 30 days in June, hence the 30×30 challenge. That can't be hard, right? Just 30 minutes of your day outside? You can take the dog for a walk, read in the shade of a tree, spend time in the garden, explore a new walking path, take the kids to a park and/or admire the sights, sounds and smells from anyplace—just get outside!
You can do this before work, on your lunch or break, or after work. Don't forget that some of your favorite places are different in the dark, and that's worth exploring too.
Like trees? Studies show heading to a forest can have additional benefits, and Fontenelle Forest is a great local attraction, (and they have Nature Discovery Day Camps for kids!).
After your 30 days are up, take stock of how you feel (bonus points for keeping a journal along the way). What benefits have you observed in your own life? Do you take a walk at lunch and find that you get more done in the afternoon? Did you have more or deeper conversations with your kids? Did your overall stress diminish? Maybe you lost a few pounds? Is your dog less destructive indoors?
Whatever it is, everybody will benefit from the 30×30 challenge. So what are you waiting for?

~ Rufus taunting Holt after provoking Mrs. Jumbo, also his last words.
Rufus Sorghum is a supporting antagonist of the 2019 Disney film Dumbo. He is a sadistic and abusive animal caretaker working for the Medici Brothers' Circus until his death.
He was portrayed by Phil Zimmerman.
Rufus was one of the animal caretakers in the circus, but unlike his fellow co-workers, he is extremely abusive to the circus animals (mostly the elephants). He was first seen forcing the elephants to exit their box car until there was one left: Mrs. Jumbo. He tried to use his whip to force her out, but Holt Farrier arrives to the scene with his kids, telling Rufus to stop. However, Rufus refuses by mocking Holt over the loss of right arm and wife Annie (who died from a flu outbreak) before trying to whip Mrs. Jumbo, provoking an angry Holt to violently punch Rufus in the face for it, humiliating him. Holt and his children soon learned that Mrs. Jumbo was acting strange because she has given birth to a new baby elephant with large ears. When Rufus finds out about this, he cruelly picks on the baby elephant's large ears to scare him for fun, but this provoked an angry Mrs. Jumbo to grab Rufus by the leg and violently throw him into a vat of water, leaving him humiliated once again.
During the circus' next performance in Missouri, the baby elephant (named Dumbo) became ridiculed by the audience after his ears are exposed to the public. Rufus (with an evil smirk) taunts Mrs. Jumbo about the incident and that she can't do anything to protect her child. This provoked an enraged Mrs. Jumbo to burst into the tent to protect her son from the audience, right before Holt tried to calm her down by assuring that no one will hurt her son. However, witnessing this and wanting to get back at both Holt and Mrs. Jumbo for humiliating him, Rufus comes out to the scene and takes out his whip, provoking Mrs. Jumbo once again to go berserk. Holt angrily orders Rufus to stop, but the latter refuses by calling Mrs. Jumbo a 'mad elephant'. This caused Mrs. Jumbo to knock over a large post, setting the tent to fall over and sending people into panic. As Rufus hides behind the bleachers laughing at everyone panicking and mocking Holt once again, he is shocked to see the post falling over to the bleachers, crushing him to death.
Rufus' corpse is last seen being carried away to the morgue by several police officers, though the entire troupe (including Medici) don't seem to miss him as they are aware of his horrible behavior towards the elephants that caused the incident in the first place. Nevertheless, the news of Rufus' death puts the circus into the verge of a public relations problem, which forced an upset Medici to sell away Mrs. Jumbo back to her original owner Hans Brugelbecker, much to Dumbo and the troupe's dismay. Brugelecker later sold Mrs. Jumbo to V.A. Vandevere of Dreamland until she was freed by Dumbo and the troupe.
Rufus is considered a homage to the bully Smitty, a character from the original 1941 cartoon who was known for provoking Mrs. Jumbo by harassing Dumbo. However, Rufus is far worse as he was willing to provoke the elephants to put other people's lives in danger for his own amusement.
There was a deleted scene where Rufus started verbally abusing the elephants to get them out of their boxcar. When Medici witnessed this, he furiously tells Rufus to go easy on the elephants and show them some respect, but Rufus refuses by mocking Medici, causing several of Rufus' co-workers to snicker. This prompted an annoyed Medici to stare at and sarcastically thank Rufus for this, implying that he strongly disapproves Rufus' behavior towards him and the elephants.

LeBron backs off 'no play' threat over fan-free games
Mar 11, 2020 11:14 AM PHT
After threatening not to play if the NBA bars fans, LeBron James backtracks and says he'll follow authorities to curb exposure to the virus
LOS ANGELES, USA – LeBron James on Tuesday, March 10, backtracked from a threat not to play if the NBA decides to force teams to stage games behind closed doors as the league grapples with the coronavirus threat.
Speaking to reporters on Friday, the Los Angeles Lakers star said he would refuse to play if the league bars fans from venues as part of efforts to limit the spread of the COVID-19 virus.
"We play games without the fans? Nah, that's impossible," James said.
"I ain't playing if I ain't got the fans in the crowd. That's who I play for. I play for my teammates, and I play for the fans.
"That's what it's all about. So if I show up to an arena and there ain't no fans in there, I ain't playing. They can do what they want to do."
However on Tuesday, James softened his position, saying he would do whatever authorities recommended to curb exposure to the virus.
"When I was asked the question, I had no idea it was actually a conversation going on behind closed doors about the virus," James said.
"Obviously I would be very disappointed not having the fans because that's what I play for – I play for my family, I play for my fans," he added.
"But at the same time you gotta listen to the people that's keeping a track of what's going on and if they feel that's what's best for the safety of the players, the safety of the franchise, the safety of the league, to mandate that, then we're going to listen to them."
Other players in the NBA have been lukewarm about the possibility of playing in empty arenas.
"If there's no fans, they might as well drive up here and let's play in the practice facility," Portland Trail Blazers star point guard Damian Lillard told The Oregonian newspaper.
On Monday, the NBA announced it was joining Major League Soccer, the National Hockey League and Major League Baseball in a new policy to restrict access to team locker rooms.
As of Tuesday, members of the media are no longer allowed to enter team locker rooms to speak to players after games or practice.
The US has recorded at least 28 deaths from the coronavirus and 804 confirmed cases, according to a Johns Hopkins tally. – Rappler.com
