Fokker D.VII byl německý jednomístný stíhací dvouplošník navržený Reinholdem Platzem v továrně Anthony Fokkera a používaný koncem první světové války a po ní. Při jeho nasazení na frontě v roce 1918 se ukázalo, že je lepší než tehdejší stíhací letouny spojenců, což vedlo k druhému období německé vzdušné převahy známé jako Fokker Scourge. Stal se tak známým například tím, že byl jako jediný typ spojenci jmenovitě uveden v podmínkách kapitulace Německa, s požadavkem odevzdání všech letounů tohoto typu v "dobrém stavu". Na strojích D.VII létala mnohá německá letecká esa, například Ernst Udet, Fritz Rumey nebo Franz Büchner, ale i Hermann Göring.

Vývoj

Hlavní konstruktér firmy Fokker Reinhold Platz pracoval na sérii experimentálních letadel, označované jako řada V, od roku 1916. Tato letadla charakterizovalo použití samonosné konstrukce křídel s tlustým profilem (založené na spolupráci s Hugo Junkersem, který tento způsob navrhl v roce 1915 pro svá celokovová letadla) namísto křídel s tenkým profilem vyztužených dráty. Výsledkem byla pevnější křídla s větším vztlakem.

Koncem roku 1917 postavil Fokker experimentální dvouplošník V.11 s motorem Mercedes D.IIIa. Od 21. do 28. ledna 1918 se v Berlíně-Adlershofu konala soutěž D Flugzeug Wettbewerb pro výběr nového stíhacího letounu pro německé letectvo. Frontoví piloti se tak poprvé v historii přímo podíleli na výběru a vylepšeních bojových letadel. Fokker přihlásil prototyp V.11 spolu s dalšími typy. Manfred von Richthofen po letu s V.11 ohodnotil stroj jako nepříliš dobrý a nestabilní při střemhlavém letu. Jako odpověď na připomínky Fokker upravil V.11 prodloužením trupu a přidáním kýlové plochy před směrové kormidlo. Po letu s vylepšenou verzí Richthofen označil tento stroj za nejlepší v celé soutěži.

Přes relativní zastaralost motoru Mercedes podával letoun vynikající výkony a bezpečně a lehce se ovládal. Ačkoli Richthofen nebyl sám, kdo stroj doporučoval, jeho názor byl ve výběru rozhodující. Fokker okamžitě obdržel předběžnou objednávku na 400 strojů V.11.

Protože továrna Fokker neměla potřebné kapacity k výrobě takového množství letadel, bylo konkurenčním firmám Albatros a AEG nařízeno stavět D.VII licenčně, ačkoli společnost AEG nakonec žádné D.VII nevyrobila. Jelikož Fokker ve výrobě nepoužíval výkresy a letadla stavěl pomocí šablon, jednoduše odeslal kompletní D.VII k Albatrosu k okopírování. Albatros platil Fokkeru licenční poplatek pět procent z každého vyrobeného stroje. Albatros Flugzeugwerke a jeho dceřiná společnost Ostdeutsche Albatros Werke (OAW) vyráběly D.VII v továrnách v Berlíně – Johannisthalu (Albatros) a v dnešním polském městě Piła (německy Schneidemühl) (OAW). Verze vyráběné Albatrosem měly označení Fokker D.VII (Alb), zatímco stroje z Schneidemühlu Fokker D.VII (OAW). Zajímavostí je, že některé díly těchto letadel se nedaly zaměňovat za jiné z ostatních továren a to dokonce ani mezi letadly Albatrosu a OAW.

Výroba v továrnách Albatros brzy překonala Fokker jak počtem, tak i kvalitou letadel. Celkem bylo i přes nepříznivé hospodářské podmínky vyrobeno asi 2000 těchto letadel ve třech továrnách, přičemž nejčastěji se uvádí číslo 1700 kusů.

Na základě dohody mezi Fokkerovou továrnou a rakousko-uherským Fligerarsenalem bylo umožněno Stfw. Franzi Kuntnerovi otestovat ve dnech 15. a 16. března 1918 prototyp Fokker V.22 (výr. č. 2342). V.22 se od sériových letounů lišil mírným vzepětím horního křídla a čtyřlistou vrtulí Jarray. Následně byl předán budapešťské letecké továrně Magyar Általános Gépggyár, která byla tradičním výrobcem fokkerových letadel. Fliegerarsenal u této firmy objednal 150 kusů D.VII, stejný počet pak rovněž u společnosti Aviatik. Pro urychlení zavedení licenční výroby zaslal Fokker 23. října 1918 do Budapešti 6 kompletních draků (výr. č. 3861 a 3863 až 3867) bez motorů a výzbroje. Továrna MÁG kompletaci dokončila instalací licenčně vyráběných, vodou chlazených šestiválcových motorů Austro Daimler AD 6 s rozměrnějším čelním chladičem a dvojicí kulometů Schwarzlose ráže 8 mm.

Bojové nasazení

D.VII byly nasazeny do služby u Jasty 10 na západní frontě začátkem května 1918. Hned zpočátku bylo jasné, že jsou mnohem lepší, než dosud používané stíhací stroje Albatros a Pfalz. Na rozdíl od Albatrosů mohl D.VII létat střemhlavě bez rizika selhání konstrukce. D.VII měl také dobrou stoupavost, při přetažení se choval nezáludně a neměl tendenci padat do vývrtky. To ostře kontrastovalo s vlastnostmi jeho současníků, jako byly stroje Sopwith Camel nebo SPAD S.XIII, které při přetažení prudce přecházely do vývrtky.

D.VII měl také několik vad. Teplo z motoru často zapálilo fosforové střelivo, to se například stalo Ernstu Udetovi, kterému se během souboje vznítil ve schránce zápalný náboj a současně se za něj zavěsil nepřítel. Jediná možnost jak se zbavit hořícího náboje bylo vystřelit. Když začal střílet, protivníka za ním to zřejmě vystrašilo a raději se odpoutal. Tento problém byl vyřešen perforovanými nábojovými schránkami. Několikrát došlo i prasknutí palivové nádrže ve svaru. U D.VII rovněž docházelo k trhání potahu a lámání žeber horního křídla. Stroje stavěné v továrně Fokker ve Schwerinu byly pověstné svou horší kvalitou dílenského zpracování i použitých materiálů. I přesto byla konstrukce D.VII úspěšná a stroj se stal oblíbeným – a to dokonce natolik, že vzniklo i rčení: "Z průměrného pilota udělá dobrého a z dobrého pilota eso".

Původně D.VII používaly motory Mercedes D.IIIa (170 k), poté motory Mercedes D.IIIaü s vyšším kompresním poměrem (180 k). Letadla byla výrazně vylepšena použitím překomprimovaných a předimenzovaných motorů BMW IIIa o výkonu 185 k/136 kW (tyto motory měly vyšší kompresní poměr, větší zdvihový objem a také speciální karburátor BMW) s výrazně lepšími výkony ve vyšších letových hladinách. Díky tomu měl letoun vyšší stoupavost a vyšší rychlost ve výšce. Protože motory BMW IIIa měly příliš vysoký kompresní poměr, při letu "na plný plyn" ve výškách pod 2000 metrů hrozilo poškození motoru (motor měl ovládání dvěma pákami přípustí, pro ovládání při startu a ve výškách do 2000 metrů a pákou tzv. výškového plynu, který mohl používat teprve od výšky 2000 m). Teoreticky však motor s plným plynem v nižších výškách dával až 240 koňských sil (ve skutečnosti motor dával výkon 185 k při 1380 ot/min., krátkodobě bylo povoleno zvýšit otáčky na 1420 ot/min., kdy motor dával výkon 200 koní).

Letouny s motory BMW byly značeny D.VIIF. První se dostaly k jednotce Jasta 11 koncem června 1918. Produkce piloty vychvalovaného motoru BMW však byla omezená, takže množství strojů D.VII nadále poháněly motory Mercedes D.IIIaü.

Manfred von Richthofen zemřel dřív než byly stroje zavedeny do služby a nikdy s nimi v boji neletěl. Jiní piloti, včetně Hermanna Göringa, na strojích rychle zvyšovali počty sestřelů a stroje si nemohli vynachválit. Dodávky byly zpočátku omezené, ale v červenci už bylo nasazeno 407 letadel. Více letadel bylo dodáno v srpnu a v tomto měsíci také jejich piloti dosáhli celkem 565 vítězství. Stroje D.VII byly ve výzbroji 46 stíhacích letek. Ke konci války sloužilo 775 strojů Fokker D.VII.

Poválečná služba

Po válce byly D.VII hojně používány v USA (142 strojů). Letouny sloužily i v polském (okolo 50 kusů), nizozemském námořním letectvu Marineluchtvaartafdeling (20 kusů), švýcarském a belgickém i československém letectvu. Fokker D.VII (6162/18) zakoupený Victorem Simonetem v roce 1920 byl prvním strojem s belgickou civilní registrací (O-BEBE).

V roce 1920 švýcarské úřady v Německu odkoupily první dva exempláře D.VII prostřednictvím spojenecké komise. Jednalo se o neozbrojené stroje deklarované jako sportovní. S motory Mercedes D.IIIa o výkonu 118 kW prošly letovými testy, poté se již vyzbrojené účastnily zkoušek střelby. První dva švýcarské D.VII dostaly vojenské evidenční čísla 608 a 609 a u Fliegertruppe nakonec létaly jako neozbrojené cvičné. Stroj č. 608 byl zničen při nouzovém přistání roku 1929, č. 609 byl ze stavu Flugwaffe vyřazen v létě 1938.

V listopadu 1920 se do Švýcarska dostal další Fokker D.VII s pohonnou jednotkou Mercedes a bez výzbroje. V Berlíně jej zakoupil Carl Högger a etapově přepravil do švýcarského Dübendorfu. Do roku 1925 stroj s civilní imatrikulací CH-46 používal se svým přítelem Alfredem Comtem k předváděcím letům. V lednu 1925 letoun přešel k Fliegertruppe, kde s číslem 631 sloužil dalších deset let jako cvičný. V roce 1936 stroj v německých civilních barvách s novou poznávací značkou D-EIRA přeletěl Ernst Udet z Dübendorfu do Berlína, kde se stal exponátem leteckého muzea.

K první akvizici k vybavení švýcarských stíhacích jednotek letouny D.VII došlo v roce 1921, kdy úřady od spojenecké komise v Německu koupily osm kusů D.VII s motory Mercedes a dva D.VIIF s motory BMW IIIa o výkonu 136 kW. Těchto deset letounů prošlo generálkami u společnosti Eidgenössische Konstruktions-Werkstätte v Thunu. Dostaly výzbroj původními německými synchronizovanými kulomety LMG.08/15 (Spandau), nové přístroje a od roku 1932 upravená pilotní sedadla pro padáky Salvator. Modifikací prošla také motorová lože vybavená tlumiči. Po opravách obdržely letouny s Mercedesy čísla 616 až 622, D.VIIF pak 623 a 624. D.VII č. 615 zůstal v Thunu, kde byl do jeho draku instalován francouzský vidlicový osmiválec Hispano-Suiza H.S.8b o výkonu 221 kW a jeho označení bylo změněno na D.VIIS. Protože nebylo možné instalovat původní systém synchronizace kulometů, létal 615 neozbrojen. Při větších generálkách typu D.VII, probíhajícími s modernizacemi v roce 1932, byl přestavěn na standard s Mercedesem. K jeho vyřazení došlo v roce 1938.

V roce 1925 získala společnost Alfreda Comteho v Německu dalších šest Fokkerů D.VII s pohonnými jednotkami Mercedes D.IIIa. Prošly rovněž generálkami a byly předány následujícího roku Fliegertruppe s čísly 625 až 630.

Roku 1928 se Fligertruppe podařilo v ČSR odkoupit deset nepoužitých motorů Mercedes D.IIIa, které převzala firma Alfreda Comteho v Oberriedenu. Společnost si u továrny Fokker obstarala výrobní dokumentaci typu D.VII spolu s licenčními právy, podle kterých postavila osm kompletně nových letounů. Fliegertruppe byly dodány s čísly 632 až 639 během roku 1929, čímž se počet D.VII švýcarského letectva zvýšil na 27. Poslední stroje byly vyřazeny v roce 1938.

Po I. světové válce se šest Rakousko-Uhersku dodaných letounů D.VII, dislokovaných na letišti Mátyásföld, dostalo do výzbroje Maďarské republiky rad a její letecké složky Vörös Légiarócsapat. Dva z nich používala 8. Vörös Repüloszázad, která byla v červnu 1919 vyslána do Győru, aby zamezila pronikání československých letounů na maďarské území. V roce 1919 totiž docházelo na území Slovenska k bojům proti maďarským bolševickým vojskům.

27. května 1919 Fokker D.VII (výr. č. 3867) štábního šikovatele Istvána Fejese, leteckého esa s 15 sestřely, nouzově přistál po ostřelování obrněného vlaku v prostoru Lučence za československými liniemi. Stroj byl odeslán do opravy k Leteckému arsenálu v Praze na Výstavišti. Po opravě ho 4. července 1919 zalétal šikovatel polní pilot Valenta. Po zařazení k Leteckému sboru byl D.VII určen k propagačnímu létání s piloty setníkem Adamcem a npor. Popelákem. V této roli sloužil až do konce roku. Počátkem roku 1920 byl Fokker D.VII zařazen do pilotní školy v Praze, kde se podrobil i druhé větší opravě. Při ní byl původní motor nahrazen pohonnou jednotkou Daimler z havarovaného stroje Albatros D.III(Oef) (výr. č. 253.116) pilota Adolfa Bláhy. Po opravě byl jediný československý Fokker D.VII zalétán setníkem Adamcem a začátkem října 1920 jej přelétl pilot Karel Dovolil do pilotní školy v Chebu. 24. ledna 1921 stroj Augustin Charvát opět přelétl k HLD v Praze, kde jeho motor prošel celkovou revizí. Po záletu 7. září 1921 převzal Fokker D.VII pro letecké učiliště Cheb A. Charvát. Samotný přelet do Chebu provedl pilot Procházka 27. září. Při přeletu z Chebu do Prahy 18. října 1921 byl letoun těžce poškozen při nouzovém přistání pilota Procházky v Praze-Bohnicích po vysazení motoru. 16. ledna 1922 byl Fokker převezen vlakem do Hlavních leteckých dílen Olomouc a 3. června 1922 u 2. let. pluku Josefem Pospíšilem znovu zalétán. 15. ledna 1925 byl zrušen ve školním skladu v Chebu.

D.VII byly také nejpočetnějším typem polského letectva v bojích polsko-sovětské války. Fokker ve všeobecném zmatku po uzavření příměří z Compiègne tajně přesunul výrobu i mnoho kompletních draků do Nizozemska, kde letadla také úspěšně prodával.

Most persons in the planet knowledge anxiety at diverse stages of their lives. Pressure arises due to such situations or conditions which are perceived as obstacles by an person. The belief of inability to cope with such obstacles leads to anxiety. Pressure might be massive or smaller based upon the predicament and how persons perceive it. It can be classified according to the level of difficulty to tackle and the level of anxiousness it produces in the unique person facing it. Some persons might really feel helpless and hopeless in these kinds of stressful conditions even though there are other folks as well, who discover the art of understanding conditions and techniques to handle anxiety.
The initially point 1 really should assume even though in a stressful predicament is the principal or actual cause behind the anxiety. Normally there are surrounding related obstacles which contribute to anxiety but it is crucial to locate and concentrate on the major trigger. Simplification and answer to this principal trigger of anxiety can at some point release the anxiety and the other smaller sized contributing aspects develop into straightforward to take care of. After the chief anxiety causing cause is clear, the subsequent process is to assume of the immense amounts of pressures and anxiety which persons are facing about the planet. There are situations exactly where even easy livelihood becomes tough. If 1 compares his cause for anxiety to such situations, some quantity of anxiety is certain to reduce in the initial step itself. The subsequent step is to inform oneself that "you are NOT alone!", mainly because as a person thinks of the anxiety other persons are facing, 1 really should also assume that no one is facing a unique form of dilemma predicament alone in this planet. There are thousands of persons who face related anxiety causing challenges. Lastly the self-motivational component of considering that if persons with even lesser sources are confronting their anxiety, then it is certainly attainable for other folks as well. Sources might consist of trustworthy persons about us, issues which can motivate us and issues which can truly resolve our dilemma.
A different cause to really feel anxiety-free of charge is the reality that nature does not differentiate involving folks. For instance, generally when the sun shines, it delivers heat and light power to a unique area impartially, equal for all the folks. Individuals really should discover to make use of the readily available sources positively so as to resolve their obstacles in the simplest of attainable techniques without having causing substantially anxiety or anxiousness. When such anxiety causing obstacles are resolved, an person not only feels relaxed and free of charge but also becomes knowledgeable and mentally sturdy, to face such challenging conditions in the future. It becomes especially crucial right here, that not only really should an person seek enable from close close friends and relatives when in stressful conditions, but really should also share his experiences with them when 1 resolves these challenges effectively. This can motivate them to clear their obstacles with patience and strength.
The planet is complete of several kinds of anxieties and stressors. It is the option an person has to make regardless of whether to assume constructive or damaging about a predicament. Pressure can be in any smallest of issues we attempt to do and there can be no anxiety in performing the greatest of issues in life. It completely depends on person attitude, self-motivation and the use of readily available sources. There is a have to have to recognize the art of managing anxiety with a constructive strategy of thoughts.

El río Scorff es un río costero del departamento francés de Morbihan, en la región de Bretaña y desemboca en el océano Atlántico.

Geografía
El río Scorff tiene una longitud de 78 km. Nace al norte de Langoëlan y atraviesa el departamento de Morbihan, pasando por Guémené-sur-Scorff y Pont-Scorff. A partir de Pont-Scorff su curso se ensancha y está sometido a las mareas, formando una ría. Finaliza su recorrido en Lorient, donde se une al Blavet en la rada de Lorient.

Pasa por los molinos de Quelen (Milin ar Kelenn, o molino del Acebo), del Paraíso (Milin ar Baradoz), de Tronscorff (Milin Draoñ Scorv, o molino del valle de Scorff), de Nicol, de Milin vras, Pont Bihan...

Hidrografía
El río Scorff presenta en Pont Kerlo en Plouay un área de cuenca de 300 km² (aproximadamente el 60% de su cuenca entera hasta su desembocadura en la rada de Lorient) y su caudal medio interanual es 5,02 m³/s. Su caudal mensual oscila entre 10,1 m³/s durante la marea alta en invierno y 1,36 m³/s en estiaje en verano (ver histograma). Las fluctuaciones en el caudal son mucho más grandes en períodos más cortos.
Caudal medio mensual medido en la estación hidrológica Plouay (Pont Kerlo) (en m³/s, con datos calculados de 53 años)
El caudal máximo diario registrado es de 93.00 m³/s (medido el 15 de febrero de 1974) y el caudal mínimo registrado durante tres días consecutivos fue de 0.111 m³/s (medido entre el 29 y 31 de agosto de 1976 durante una sequía histórica). El caudalde agua que pasa en su cuenca es de 530 milímetros al año, valor relativamente alto comparable a la de las cuencas hidrográficas adyacentes.

So, I know theres probably at least a few of you who have noticed I haven't been as active as much lately. I said before in another thread things should be back to normal for me in September. I thought they would be. However, running my new business with my friends, where I'm there about 30 hours a week, and then working my normal job still about 36 hours a week, and finding time to develop my relationship with my girlfriend...things have been less normal than I thought they would be.
I'm not quitting Imperian, or being an Entity. Things will likely continue to be hard in the new future, but I'm not quitting it. I'm trying to find my groove still. How I can still be productive while doing all these things. It's all just very physically and mentally draining for me.
The business itself has been going well. We already have store regulars who just come and hang out with us. We've done quite well in sales. I even ordered and shipped out some Warhammer stuff to a friend I met from Aetolia some time ago(we met in person too before he moved away across the country). A lot of things have been going 'good' for me lately, but with the good, comes the bad. That's the way it goes. I'm not looking for pity, but my home situation has changed drastically this past year, and suddenly I found myself recently having to pay everything by myself all at once. So that has been stressful as well.
I want to finish by saying that I am thinking about Imperian, and all of you, and unlike some other people have done to me, I won't abandon the game, or you. For a long time the last nearly 2 years or so, my life has been work my day job, do stuff on Imperian, sometimes go hang out with friends on weekends. Things have just changed a lot. But I will figure it out, and I appreciate everyone's patience and compassion.
I justed started on Imperian this month. The couple of times that I ran into you for an event were fun. Balancing basically two full time jobs and personal relationships must be very tough, so thanks for taking those times when you could rest to come make some fun for us. I'm glad you're prioritizing those things over the game, and look forward to hearing about your business growing and seeing you sprinting around the game inciting chaos from time to time.
P.S. I went easy on Ozreas and Wyll in the blood bath so that they wouldn't be embarrassed in front of you.
Glad to know things are going well for you for the most part, Druu, and we definitely miss you. Thanks for the events in the past two days, but RL > Imperian. Even though I always tell people to quit their jobs and commit to Imperian full time.
@Pha - That's why I kept running away from you in the bloodbath. I was scared.
Haha. I wish I could quit my crappy day job and work on Imperian full time. It has been something I've brought up. Maybe some day, when the circumstances are right.
The funny thing is I'm not doing great financially, but everyone always probably thinks I'm crazy when I say that because 'You have your own business with your friends now!', yeah, I do, but we also committed to not taking any profit until 1 year. So all the money we've made this month goes into ordering more stuff to sell. We've already expanded into Yu-gi-oh and Star Wars Armada, and some various other things.
Store's making a ton of money, I'm not...but after a year, it should make up for all the struggle.
And I never did mention the name. We have a Facebook if anyone wants to look us up. I know you guys probably don't live near me, but the name is Counterbalance Cards & Games.
If I am ever in your city I will try and stop buy to say hello!


This timeline sets out a brief history of youth justice in England and Wales from the first attempts to separate young offenders from adults in the criminal justice system a little over 220 years ago. Although not intentionally focused on custodial provision, many of the significant events concern attempts to reform, replace or divert children from various types of institutions. The recognition of a need for resettlement support after custody is also a recurring theme – from the embryonic youth justice system to the present day.


A 58 year old man is brought in by ambulance moribund with barely palpable pulse and a sinus tachycardia.
(b) His condition improves with therapy. When his wife arrives she tells of his recent hip replacement complications by a bleeding duodenal ulcer. What are the likely diagnoses?
How will you establish the definite diagnosis and why?
(b) This provides some help.but is not definitive. Possible causes still include pulmonary embolus. hypovolaemia from bleeding DU. myocardial infarction etc. A progression from simple/quick investigations to more complex but specific/diagnostic investigations should be outlined. There should have beeo a sense of appropriate priorities.
If there are signs of GIT bleed with hypovolaemia, then fluid resuscitation, NG tube insertion, endoscopy, FBC and coag screen will be indicated along with anti-ulcer therapy and perhaps surgery.
If there are signs of acute myocardial infarction. in the setting of recent DU, angiogram and angioplasty would be a preferable course perhaps after urgent echo.
This part of this multi-part question offers some explanation as why the patient is "moribund". In essence, it narrows the differentials generated by the "4 Hs and 4 Ts" approach, which one can use to systematically organise one's diagnostic approach to this peri-arrest scenario in the first part of this question.
TTE to investigate myocardial contractility and to look for regional wall motion abnormalities associated with MI. Even a low-skilled interpreter will also be able to rapidly rule out cardiac tamponade and right ventricular dilatatation associated with massive PE.
CTPA to exclude massive PE; the CT will also capture a portion of the upper GI tract giving more information regarding the state of affairs in the duodenum.
Upper GI endoscopy would be the gold standard to investigate and manage duodenal bleeding, and one should contact a gastroenterologist to organise this.
Seeing as both bleeding and thrombosis are a part of the differentials, anticoagulation/thrombolysis should be thought about but left until investigations reveal more about the cause of this shock state.

Thick, fire-resistant bark and a massive canopy can protect trees from wildfires, most notably: giant sequoias. Native trees like koa can also use their canopies to their advantage by shading out fire-loving undergrowth, reducing the amount of fuel for a fire. Unfortunately, most native plants in Hawaii do not regenerate well after a wildfire, unlike sequoias. Our fire ecosystems in Hawaii can differ vastly from the mainland, but some things hold true for all.
Sequoias have fibrous, fire-resistant bark that can grow up to two-feet thick, insulating them from damage, says Stephen C. Sillett, a Humboldt State University ecologist who has received grants from the National Geographic Society to study the giants in Sequoia National Park. The trees' massive size and canopy also help cut down on undergrowth around them, which reduces fuel for fires."

Doug Wardlow Is Anything But "Apolitical"
Doug Wardlow has spent his campaign for Attorney General trying to run away from his ultra-partisan record and fringe agenda. In the press, he has repeatedly insisted that -- despite a long record of pushing dangerous and divisive ideas -- he is "not going to be doing anything political" in the Attorney General's office.
But it's not just Wardlow's record that reveals what kind of Attorney General he'd really be. Behind closed doors on the campaign trail, Wardlow hasn't been able to resist boasting about the divisive and dangerous agenda he plans to implement if elected.
Now that it's clear @Doug_Wardlow's core campaign promise to be "apolitical" in the AG's office is an undeniable lie, let's take a look at some of the other times he accidentally told the truth on the campaign trail.
Wardlow has also made clear his plan to use the office to push an anti-choice agenda, saying that he "would favor the overturning of Roe v. Wade, absolutely" and that he will make restricting a woman's right to choose "a priority" if he is Attorney General.
This is the Doug Wardlow that lines up with his record in the state legislature -- a highly ideological partisan who authored a so-called "right-to-work" bill, tried to block the Affordable Care Act, and backed the anti-democratic voter ID amendment and anti-marriage equality amendment -- both of which were ultimately rejected by Minnesota voters.
It's clear, both from Wardlow's legislative record and his own promises on the campaign trail, that his true priorities as Attorney General would be to push a highly political agenda out of step with our state.

Die Sumpfblume ist ein 1913 gedrehtes deutsches Stummfilmmelodram von und mit Viggo Larsen sowie Wanda Treumann als seine Partnerin.

Handlung
Im Mittelpunkt des Geschehens steht ein junges Mädchen, das im Paris der Vorkriegszeit neben vielen anderen jungen Frauen ihre Hoffnungs auf eine Karriere als Animierdame, Tänzerin oder Modell in mehr oder weniger zweifelhaften Unterhaltungsetablissements – Kneipen, Bars und Hintertreppenspelunken – sucht. Dieses Milieu wird von den Moralisten jener Zeit als (moralischer) Sumpf angesehen, und ein cleveres, karrierebewusstes Fräulein, das diesem Sumpf entsteigt und entkommt, nennt man die "Sumpfblume". Ein Exemplar dieser Spezies heißt Sandra, und sie scheint mit allen Wassern gewaschen zu sein. Der deutsche Bildhauer Edgar von Schmetting betreibt am Montmartre ein Atelier und ist fasziniert von dieser Sumpfblume. Er verfällt Sandra, will ihren nackten Fuß modellieren und leiht sich sogar 20.000 Mark die er, ganz in der Tradition von Prof. Higgins in My Fair Lady, in die Erziehung Sandras investieren will, um aus ihr ein wohlanständiges Fräulein der Gesellschaft zu formen.

Doch Sumpfblume Sandra kann die Gosse, der sie entstiegen ist, nicht verhehlen und macht sich eines Tages mit den 20.000 Mark davon, da sie der Ansicht ist, dass sie sich mit dieser (ihr nicht gehörenden) Summe durchaus selbst erziehen könne, wie sie Edgar in ihrem Abschiedsbrief mitteilt. Mit dem Geld in der Tasche und überbordendem Ehrgeiz avanciert Sandra bald zu einem großen Varietéstar. Eines Tages lernte sie Graf Dahlenberg kennen, einen Edelmann, den sie rasch um den Finger wickelt und schließlich ehelicht. Aus der Sumpfblume mit der vorgeblich unrühmlichen Vergangenheit wird eine Dame der Gesellschaft … wäre da nicht ein Vorleben als Kellerkind mit ausschweifender Vergangenheit und der Kurzzeitkarriere als halbnacktes Modell eines Künstlers. Die aber kommt eines Tages ans Licht der Öffentlichkeit. Folge: der Graf dreht durch und erwürgt seine unstandesgemäße Gattin mit seinen Händen. "Sumpfblumen schießen in die Höhe, erfreuen und sterben an der Sumpfluft, die sie nachschleppen."

Produktionsnotizen
Die Sumpfblume entstand im Frühjahr 1913 im Treumann-Larsen-Filmatelier in Berlin-Lankwitz und besaß vier Akte, verteilt auf 1259 Metern Länge. Der Film passierte am 19. Mai 1913 die Zensur, wurde mit Jugendverbot belegt und am 2. September 1913 uraufgeführt. Bei Die Sumpfblume handelt es sich um den ersten Film der Treumann-Larsen-Serie 1913/14.

Simple changes can have powerful impact on your sleep quality. Use these six tips from sleep experts Dr. Rachel Salas and Dr. Charlene Gamaldo to help you prepare for a successful night's sleep.
Clutter can stress you out. Move those dirty clothes to the closet, and make the bed every morning: research shows that people who do may sleep better at night.
Our bodies take between three to four hours to wind down before sleep, notes Dr. Gamaldo. Research shows that the blue light emitted by computers, smartphones, TVs and LED lightbulbs wreak havoc on the natural process and can prevent the body from producing melatonin. At the very least, unplug an hour before bedtime, and consider moving the TV and other electronics to the other room.
"You should choose your bed partners wisely," says Dr. Gamaldo. Pets can be disruptive when you're trying to sleep, and sharing your bed with a pet can elevate your internal body temperature. If possible, keep pets off the bed -- and consider making them sleep in the other room.
Your body temperature naturally drops as you sleep, and most people sleep best in temperatures between 65 and 69 degrees, according to Dr. Salas. If necessary, turn down the thermostat before turning in for the night.
Black-out curtains or room-darkening shades help filter out external light and contribute to a more restful night's sleep.
If you do need to get up in the middle of the night, keep a flashlight or a nightlight nearby to avoid turning on bright lights, which can disrupt your ability to quickly fall back to sleep.


Since the creation of IOV in March 2018 until now, the mission of IOV (Internet of Values) is simple: to enable to everyone a free, easy and equitable access to the economy of the digital assets.
In an article written in May 2018, IOV details the main principles of interoperability between electronic wallets and blockchains in order to build the internet of value. After spending the year of 2018 laying the foundation for interoperability and building both the BNS and the iov-core, here is a summary of the four major conditions that must be met so that we can move from the crypto-geek era to the era of the internet of value.
Most internet users have an email to exchange information. IOV makes a prediction: users will soon have another human address called a "value address" that will allow them to exchange digital assets without an intermediary. To summarize, this is a universal bank account number without having to register with any bank. The human address of value thus makes the link between several cryptographic addresses belonging to different blockchains. Some transactions such as an atomic swap then become much easier: no need to know the different cryptographic addresses related to different blockchains to exchange two digital assets. IOV is not a precursor on this subject since there are other "blockchain name services" such as ENS. However, our approach is different since we have a multi-blockchain approach. We are also distinguished by our pricing because we believe that it is absolutely essential that this service can be free at the start so that a maximum of users understand the benefits of the human address of value.
Being able to regenerate a private key is a necessary and essential condition for moving from the crypto-geek era to the internet of value (see this article). If it is not possible to regenerate your private key under certain conditions, most users will not use the blockchain. Indeed, 99.99% of Internet users are used to being able to regenerate their password when it comes to the Internet of information. The management of its identity is a sensitive issue and solutions exist such as the "shamir secret" or the "social recovery" to allow our digital assets not to be lost even if the private key is lost.
In the same way that national currencies are the basis of today's economic exchanges, the stable coins will be the basis of the exchanges in tomorrow's Internet of Value. Today, it is the day-to-day work of central banks that help to avoid a massive appreciation or depreciation of the traditional currency in order to allow the economy to develop. Gradually, blockchains dedicated to stable coins are created and can fulfill the same role as traditional currencies in the field of digital assets such as MakerDao or e-money.com.
Who would want to reveal all his financial transactions in front of everyone? When it comes to our private life, few currencies today respect this essential condition: a few examples include Z-cash, Grin or Beam (MimbleWimble). The underlying technology is recent and relies on the latest cryptographic discoveries. It is currently difficult to set it up and it does not yet solve all problems such as the possibility of proposing a light client. We can nevertheless anticipate that this condition will be fulfilled in the near future by some digital assets in the line of Z-cash or Grin.

Punishing the vocal critics
Jul 23rd, 2018 | By Ophelia Benson
Tags: President Treason, Trump
Astonishing.
President Donald Trump is considering revoking security clearances from ex-officials, including former CIA Director John Brennan, former FBI Director James Comey and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Monday.
Sanders said Trump believed that the former officials "politicized" their positions by accusing Trump of inappropriate contact with Russia, and she said in that some cases they "monetized their clearances," without clarifying what she meant.
"The fact that people with security clearances are making baseless charges provides inappropriate legitimacy to accusations with zero evidence," Sanders said. She also said Trump was eyeing clearances held by former NSA Director Michael Hayden, former national security adviser Susan Rice and former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, whose security clearance was deactivated after he was fired.
What a spiteful reckless unguided missile he is.
He's so reckless and ego-centered that he doesn't care that they're in a position to know and understand why it's not clever to try to be besties with Putin, he cares only that they failed to say he's right about everything. This should get him swiftly removed from office, but it won't.
Brennan, Comey and Clapper have been vocal critics of Trump, often making headlines over their displeasure with the president's performance.
Last week, Brennan lambasted Trump's meeting with President Vladimir Putin of Russia, calling it "nothing short of treasonous."
"Making baseless accusations of improper contact with Russia or being influenced by Russia against the president is extremely inappropriate," Sanders said during Monday's press briefing. "And the fact that people with security clearances are making these baseless charges provides inappropriate legitimacy to accusations with zero evidence."
No, making treasonous overtures to Putin without witnesses present is "extremely inappropriate." Punishing the people who say so is also not appropriate, or productive or legitimate or responsible or adult or anything else a president ought to be.
Several minutes after Huckabee announced that the White House was seeking to revoke his clearance, Clapper on Monday called it "a petty way of retribution: for speaking out against Trump and said that "it's an abuse of the system."
"The security clearance has nothing to do with how I or any of us feel about the president," Clapper said in an interview with CNN, adding that he does not get security briefings and does not have access to classified information.
But taking it away is its own reward, aka spite.
When asked whether the president was punishing those ex-officials for speaking out, Sanders said: "The president doesn't like that people are politicizing agencies and departments that are specifically meant to not be political and not meant to be monetized off of security clearances."
"Accusing the president of the United States of treasonous activity when you have the highest level of security clearance, when you're the person that holds the nation's deepest, most sacred secrets at your hands, and you go out and make false accusations against the president of the United States, he thinks that is something to be very concerned with," Sanders added.
They're not false. A week ago Trump stood there next to Putin and said he didn't believe Dan Coats, he believed Putin. The accusations that Trump behaved deplorably and quite possibly treasonously in Helsinki are not false, they are visibly true.
Updating to add Rand Paul's tweets:
Is John Brennan monetizing his security clearance? Is John Brennan making millions of dollars divulging secrets to the mainstream media with his attacks on @realDonaldTrump ?
— Senator Rand Paul (@RandPaul) July 23, 2018
Today I will meet with the President and I will ask him to revoke John Brennan's security clearance!
Just got out of WH meeting with @realDonaldTrump. I restated to him what I have said in public: John Brennan and others partisans should have their security clearances revoked.
Public officials should not use their security clearances to leverage speaking fees or network talking head fees
Why can't he be stopped?
He don't need no stinkin security clearance
Why the ambiguity about this
Russian efforts to suborn such individuals
A proposal that was made in sincerity

I think it's noteworthy that worthless prevaricating worm Senator Rand Paul (WPW-KY) suggested this move. Paul has frequently been a Trump critic on pretty much every other issue, but has been very vocal in defending Trump with respect to Russia, which makes me wonder how much Russian money is tangled up in Paul's financial affairs. Or maybe it's just that Rand Paul sees and admires what a Libertarian paradise the Russian mobocracy really is: no rule of law, no justice but what money can buy.
Ophelia Benson
Very noteworthy; I added his tweets on the subject.
Holms
I find it remarkable that Comey is being accused of anti-Trump bias.
Dave Ricks
To be clear, Benjamin Wittes checked with Comey today,
There's nothing for POTUS to revoke. Comey says he was "read out" when he left government as per normal practice. He even recently declined a temporary clearance from the IG to read the classified annex to the IG's recent report. He didn't want to see any classified material lest the president accuse him of leaking it.
In other words, when I quit working at SAIC to work at MITRE in 2005, and I took two weeks off in between, strictly speaking, I did not have a clearance for those two weeks, because I did not belong to an organization authorized to hold a clearance for me.
CNN posted more facts to clarify:
It is the President's prerogative to revoke security clearances, a former senior intelligence official said on Monday, who added that instances of such an occurrence were rare.
Usually former senior officials retain clearances so their successors can consult with them on a pro bono basis, the former official said [emphasis mine].
Steven Aftergood, director of the Federation of American Scientists project on government secrecy, said that while Trump has the ultimate authority to revoke the clearances, he would first have to ask each agency that initially granted that clearance and order them to revoke it [emphasis mine].
Aftergood said doing that would undermine and politicize the system.
"The idea that a president or a White House would single out individuals from a past administration who have been critical and revoke their clearances is not something we have ever seen before. It's not entirely clear how it could be performed," he said. "It undermines the integrity and the neutrality of security policy which is not based on political considerations but on professional character. That system would be undermined if it became a tool for settling political scores."
I interpret my first bolded passage to mean Brennan still has a clearance at the CIA so the government can ask him questions on short notice. The FBI did not give Comey that status.
In my second bolded passage, I'm not sure if it means Trump would go to the organization holding Brennan's clearance (probably the CIA as his former employer), or go to some other agency that accounts for clearances.
These details aside, POTUS politicizing clearances on the basis of speech would be very bad.
The president doesn't like that people are politicizing agencies and departments that are specifically meant to not be political and not meant to be monetized off of security clearances.
Uuuuuuh, I think my brain is melting trying to reconcile the hypocrisy.
Catwhisperer
I wrestled with this for a few minutes, trying to understand what good a security clearance is to a person who no longer does a job that requires it. I started to think that there was something about it that I was failing to grasp. Then I remembered: It's entirely likely that I understand it just fine, but Trump and his people don't, and / or they are making shit up.
It was a strange realisation.
Thanks Dave, that's very informative.

Sizing was perfect for my application. It was for a 2010 mercedes C63 6.3l V8. Housing plastic could be made a little more robust as mine dented and scratched up a bit during fitting. Overall power delivery now smoother. Dyno will be done shortly to see improvement over oem airboxes.
Mercedes 2010 C63 6.3 L V8 custom outfitted with the Orion's. Figment was a little tight but otherwise good. Engine response was positive and no check engine lights. Will be dynoing shortly to test improvements. Filter housing could be a bit more robust as mine dented and scratched a few times during install fitting. Otherthise looks good and so far feels good.
After a few setbacks, this airbox design fit the best for the cramped engine compartment I had. I utilized two Orion's to replace my factory oem boxes. Power delivery is smoother and top end pulls harder. Will be dynoing the vehicle to test and see if it made any improvement. Drivability was perfect with no stumbles or irratic idling or check engine lights. Great for a tight engine compartment and flows quite well. Filter is also quiet without the typical open element sound. Would be better if the housing was a little more robust as it's quit thin but otherwise an excellent product and design.


The Northwest Arkansas Times reports 72 year old Shirley Marie Curry is asking Gov. Mike Beebe to commute her life sentence in order to make her eligible for parole. Curry was convicted for the 1974 murders of ex-husband, her three children and a former sister-in law. It is reported that Curry has submitted such requests seven times previously. The prosecutor in the case (who is not a Circuit Judge) will object to the application which says Curry simply "cracked up and shot them" when a custody hearing did not go her way and the children testified against her.

There are no three-corner tears in quilt-making.
Who said shirts need every button? They're better used for quilt embellishment instead.
Rag quilts are loved by thousands; frayed hems can be too.
Quilts last a lifetime, but after a few months in the mending pile that garment will be forgotten.
Clothes are just going to be outgrown in a few months anyway, but kids keep toddler quilts 'til high school and beyond.
It encourages education; learn a new quilting technique while they learn to mend it themselves.
It fosters creativity – yours in working with fabric, pattern and thread, and theirs in devising techniques like hem-stapling.
It's an investment plan. Holey jeans are sold in the mall for big bucks; patching those holes destroys the value. And your quilts will certainly become heirlooms too. Win/win!
It's your Constitutional right to "pursuit of happiness". Quilt-making leads to happiness, but mending is just another chore.


To refine your mindset fully and skilfully, its important to associate with the right people. Who you associate with determines how you think, and the outlook you have in life.
To get the right mindset, you must be conscious about who you associate with. This article explores this in more detail.
Confident people are people who believe that things are possible. Unconfident people are the pessimistic ones who are full of doubts. For you to succeed, you must always believe in the possibilities achievable by you. You must be confident, see the positive side, and consistently be like this. The only way to ensure this fully is to always associate with confident, optimistic people. You must always associate with those who believe things are going to get better, and that life is improving all the time. This will give you the faith to keep going.
When you hang about with confident, optimistic people, your subconscious mind is being programmed with the correct beliefs to succeed. You will be exposed to super optimism, superior mindsets, open minded thinking and opportunity. This does not happen with unconfident people. Over time, this will have a dramatic and profound effect on the way you see yourself and the world. You will feel good on the inside. You will be optimistic, confident with a "can-do" attitude. You must always keep this up to succeed.
You should not be associating with people who make you feel bad. Remember: your emotions are a guidance system. They tell you when something is wrong. If somebody makes you feel bad, you should get rid of that person from your life. The person is a creator of bad vibes, highlighting the wrong mindset and system they have in place. It is better for you to always associate with those who make you feel good.
If there are a lack of confident, optimistic people in your life, then you should read books or listen to audio programs created by optimistic people. These things will still bring the right mindset for you. It will also help to re-invigorate your faith in yourself and what you are capable of. You will develop a fully robust "can-do" attitude, that will propel you to new heights in a short period of time.
In conclusion, who you associate with will have a huge impact on your life. 80-90% of your success can be determined by who you associate with. This is how crucial it is to associate with the right people.

Officials with Washington Labor & Industries announced the Port Angeles field office will move to Sequim tentatively in August. The office has been in Port Angeles for more than 32 years. (Erin Hawkins/Olympic Peninsula News Group)
Labor & Industries office moving from Port Angeles to Sequim

Olympic Peninsula News Group
SEQUIM — After more than 32 years in Port Angeles, the state's Labor &Industries field office for Clallam and Jefferson counties will move to Sequim this summer.
Sequim City Manager Charlie Bush recently said the government agency, which handles a diverse range of issues from workers' compensation claims to safety and risk consultations to manufactured homes permits, recently filed a tenant improvement at 542 W. Washington St., next to Westside Pizza, worth about $103,000.
Janet Morris, regional administrator for the Port Angeles office, said the move is tentatively planned for August.
She said the office has leased its current location for 22 of the past 32 years at 1605 E. Front St., Suite C.
Why they are moving stems from several reasons, she said.
Rena Shawver, a spokesman for the agency, said Sequim is growing and is increasingly making up a larger part of Labor &Industries' business in Clallam County.
"We really look at where the customer base is," Morris said. "[For example], we do the electrical inspections for the city of Sequim, but we don't do them for the city of Port Angeles."
Morris said another push from the agency requires that staff decrease their footprint, which the office will do by going from 4,800 square feet in Port Angeles to about 3,000 square feet in Sequim.
Shawver said the office workers anticipate more front counter traffic because of the new site's accessibility, too.
Antoinette Griffin, customer service manager for the office, said it averages about eight to 10 staff members and will add one more customer service staffer upon moving.
Once moved to Sequim, Morris said, the office will hold open houses and speak with local groups at community meetings about the agency.
Through August, business will remain ongoing at the Port Angeles office.

FDA Wants To Change How COVID-19 Vaccines Are Updated
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) wants the COVID-19 vaccine to follow in the footsteps of the flu vaccine in terms of composition, dispensing and updating.
The federal agency released a report on Monday detailing how it would simplify the process by which the vaccines get updated and released annually, much like how the up-to-date flu vaccine is rolled out yearly.
According to the FDA, since the pandemic is still ongoing, the health issue continues to pose a challenge to the global community. This includes the need to come up with an established framework for periodic updates for future vaccination campaigns.
So on Jan. 26, the Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee (VRBPAC) will look into ways to simplify the composition and immunization schedules of the authorized vaccines, the process for determining the next vaccine updates and the rollout of the updated vaccines.
The FDA said it hopes the VRBPAC members will consider the following issues during the upcoming meeting:
Transitioning to a single vaccine for primary series and booster vaccination
Harmonizing the strain composition of all COVID-19 vaccines (mRNA, protein-based)
Simplifying the schedule for future vaccination campaigns to administer a two-dose series in young children, older adults and persons with compromised immunity, and only one dose in all other individuals
Establishing a process for strain selection recommendations, similar to the seasonal influenza vaccines
Having a strain selection meeting at any time in between routine periodic strain selections to address the more pathogenic variants
"This simplification of vaccine composition should reduce complexity, decrease vaccine administration errors due to the complexity of the number of different vial presentations, and potentially increase vaccine compliance by allowing clearer communication," the FDA said in its report.
Since the plan involves the process involved in the updating cycle of the flu vaccine, experts are tasked to decide in June which strains to target for the fall season. Production of the new COVID-19 vaccines will then take place in September.
"Recommending vaccines on a regular basis as part of your routine health care is something that we should be doing. An annual boost with the vaccine will actually help make your T-cells more fit, keep them up to date and keep them in a position to protect us behind the antibodies," Dr. John Wherry, the director of the Institute for Immunology at the University of Pennsylvania, told CNN in response to the FDA's plan.

Genentech Announces FDA Approval of XOFLUZA (Baloxavir Marboxil) for Influenza
First and only single-dose oral medicine approved to treat the flu
XOFLUZA significantly reduced the duration of flu symptoms compared to placebo
First novel proposed mechanism of action to treat the flu in nearly 20 years
South San Francisco, CA -- October 24, 2018 --
Genentech, a member of the Roche Group (SIX: RO, ROG; OTCQX: RHHBY), today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved XOFLUZA™ (baloxavir marboxil) for the treatment of acute, uncomplicated influenza, or flu, in people 12 years of age and older. XOFLUZA is a first-in-class, single-dose oral medicine with a novel proposed mechanism of action that inhibits polymerase acidic endonuclease, an enzyme essential for viral replication. XOFLUZA has demonstrated efficacy against a wide range of influenza viruses, including oseltamivir-resistant strains and avian strains (H7N9, H5N1) in non-clinical studies.
"XOFLUZA is the first new flu medicine with a novel proposed mechanism of action approved in nearly 20 years, and we're excited to offer a convenient treatment option that reduces flu symptoms by more than a day with a single oral dose," said Sandra Horning, M.D., chief medical officer and head of Global Product Development. "If patients see their doctors within 48 hours of symptom onset, one dose of XOFLUZA can significantly reduce the duration of flu symptoms."
Each year, an estimated 3-11 percent of the U.S. population gets the flu, and it can be very serious, resulting in hospitalization or even death. Since 2010, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that the flu has resulted annually in 9.2 to 35.6 million illnesses, 140,000 to 900,000 hospitalizations and 12,000 to 80,000 deaths.
"The devastation of last year's flu season underscores the need for new treatment options beyond currently available antivirals or over-the-counter medications," said Serese Marotta, chief operating officer, Families Fighting Flu. "While the flu vaccine is a crucial first step in preparing for flu season and preventing illness, XOFLUZA is an important new treatment option if you do get sick."
XOFLUZA was approved based on results from the Phase III CAPSTONE-1 study of a single dose of XOFLUZA compared with placebo or oseltamivir 75 mg, twice daily for five days, in otherwise healthy people with the flu, as well as results from a placebo-controlled Phase II study in otherwise healthy people with the flu. XOFLUZA significantly reduced the duration of flu symptoms compared to placebo, and demonstrated similar efficacy compared to oseltamivir. In clinical trials, XOFLUZA was safe and well-tolerated with a side effect profile similar to placebo. The CAPSTONE-1 and Phase II study results were recently published in the September 6, 2018 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.
XOFLUZA will be available across the U.S. in the coming weeks. Genentech is committed to helping people who are prescribed XOFLUZA get access to the medicine and will be offering a coupon for all eligible patients. Please visit http://www.xofluza.com or call 1-855-XOFLUZA (1-855-963-5892) for more information.
About CAPSTONE-1
CAPSTONE-1 was a Phase III multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that evaluated the efficacy and safety of XOFLUZA in 1,436 people age 12 and older in the United States (U.S.) and Japan. The primary endpoint of the study was time to alleviation of symptoms. The study found the following results:
XOFLUZA met its primary endpoint compared to placebo:
Significantly reduced the duration of flu symptoms by more than one day (median time 54 hours versus 80 hours; p<0.001);
Similar efficacy results were seen between XOFLUZA and oseltamivir in relation to duration of symptoms (median time 54 hours versus 54 hours).
The most common adverse events reported were diarrhea (3.0 percent), bronchitis (2.6 percent), nausea (1.3 percent) and sinusitis (1.1 percent), and all of these adverse events occurred at a lower frequency than placebo. The study was conducted in the U.S. and Japan by Shionogi & Co., Ltd.
About XOFLUZA
XOFLUZA is a first-in-class, single-dose oral medicine with a novel proposed mechanism of action that has demonstrated efficacy in a wide range of influenza viruses, including oseltamivir-resistant strains and avian strains (H7N9, H5N1) in non-clinical studies. Unlike other currently available antiviral treatments, XOFLUZA is the first in a new class of antivirals designed to inhibit polymerase acidic endonuclease, an enzyme essential for viral replication.
Genentech recently announced that the global Phase III CAPSTONE-2 study assessing the safety and efficacy of XOFLUZA in people at high risk of complications from the flu, as defined by the CDC, met the study's primary objective and showed superior efficacy in the primary endpoint of time to improvement of influenza symptoms versus placebo. XOFLUZA will also be further studied in a Phase III development program including pediatric populations, post-exposure prophylaxis and severely ill hospitalized people with influenza, as well as to assess the potential to reduce transmission in otherwise healthy people.
XOFLUZA was discovered by Shionogi & Co., Ltd. and is being further developed and commercialized globally in collaboration with the Roche Group (which includes Genentech in the U.S.) and Shionogi & Co., Ltd. Under the terms of this agreement, Roche holds worldwide rights to XOFLUZA excluding Japan and Taiwan, which will be retained exclusively by Shionogi & Co., Ltd.
XOFLUZA U.S. Indication
XOFLUZA is a prescription medicine used to treat the flu (influenza) in people 12 years of age and older who have had flu symptoms for no more than 48 hours.
It is not known if XOFLUZA is safe and effective in children younger than 12 years of age or weighing less than 88 pounds (40 kg).
Limitations of Use : Influenza viruses change over time, and factors such as the virus type or subtype, emergence of resistance or changes in viral virulence could diminish the clinical benefit of antiviral drugs. Consider available information on drug susceptibility patterns for circulating influenza virus strains when deciding whether to use XOFLUZA.
Do not take XOFLUZA if you are allergic to baloxavir marboxil or any of the ingredients in XOFLUZA.
Before you take XOFLUZA, tell your healthcare provider about all of your medical conditions, including if you:
are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. It is not known if XOFLUZA can harm your unborn baby.
are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. It is not known if XOFLUZA passes into your breast milk.
Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins and herbal supplements.
Talk to your healthcare provider before you receive a live flu vaccine after taking XOFLUZA.
Take XOFLUZA with or without food. Do not take XOFLUZA with dairy products, calcium-fortified beverages, laxatives, antacids or oral supplements containing iron, zinc, selenium, calcium or magnesium.
The most common side effects are diarrhea, bronchitis, nausea, common cold symptoms (nasopharyngitis) and headache.
XOFLUZA is not effective in treating infections other than influenza. Other kinds of infections can have symptoms like those of the flu or occur along with the flu and may need different kinds of treatment. Tell your healthcare provider if you feel worse or develop new symptoms during or after treatment with XOFLUZA or if your flu symptoms do not start to get better.
Please see the XOFLUZA full Prescribing Information for complete safety information.
You are encouraged to report side effects to Genentech by calling 1-888-835-2555 or to the FDA by visiting http://www.fda.gov/medwatch or calling 1-800-FDA-1088.
About Genentech in influenza
Influenza, or flu, is one of the most common yet serious infectious diseases. Since 2010, the CDC estimates that the flu has resulted annually in 9.2 to 35.6 million illnesses, 140,000 to 900,000 hospitalizations and 12,000 to 80,000 deaths. Although vaccines are an important first line of defense in preventing the flu, there is a need for new medical options for prophylaxis and treatment. Current treatments – including existing vaccines and antiviral drugs – have limitations as flu viruses are constantly changing and new antiviral medicines are necessary. Genentech is committed to addressing the unmet need in this area through its agreement with Shionogi & Co., Ltd. to develop and commercialize XOFLUZA.
Founded more than 40 years ago, Genentech is a leading biotechnology company that discovers, develops, manufactures and commercializes medicines to treat patients with serious and life-threatening medical conditions. The company, a member of the Roche Group, has headquarters in South San Francisco, California. For additional information about the company, please visit http://www.gene.com.

HomeRace RelationsAnti-White BigotryBiden picks recent NFL/NBA cheerleader for State Dept. Spokesperson; she claims America is trying to genocide black people
Biden picks recent NFL/NBA cheerleader for State Dept. Spokesperson; she claims America is trying to genocide black people
From professional cheerleader to the politic elite in record time
Joe Biden has appointed Jalina Porter for the position of Spokesperson for the US Department of State. A woman who seems to have been fast tracked from professional cheerleader to the politic elite in record time.
In 2016, Porter posted a message on Facebook saying "The largest threat to US national security are US cops. Not ISIS, not Russian hackers, not anyone or anything else. If ya'll don't wake up and rise up to this truth, the genocide against Blacks in America will continue until we are near extinct."
Porter graduated from Howard University with a degree in marketing in 2008. In 2012 she became a "Raiderette," a member of the NFL Oakland Raiders dance/cheerleader team. In 2013, she became a dancer/cheerleader for the NBA Washington Wizards. She performed in the NBA until 2016.
In September of 2016, when she posted the incendiary racial rant on Facebook, she was employed by a left-wing foreign policy think-tank called Truman National Security Project. This is the same think-tank that employed Joe Biden's son Hunter.
She also worked as a part time staff assistant part time for US Congressman Jerry McNerney, a Democrat from California, in 2015 and 2016. In 2018, US Congressman Cedric Richmond, a Democrat from Louisiana, hired her as his Communication Direction with a $77k annual salary.
Biden has now appointed Cedric Richmond as Director of the Office of Public Engagement, and a Senior Adviser to the President.
Porter's former boss once hung this painting in the US Capitol Building
Richmond, himself, has embraced racial extremism. In 2017, he hung a painting in the Capitol Building that depicted police as predators hunting black people. The painting was removed by the House Office Building Commission policies that prohibit artwork with "subjects of contemporary political controversy or a sensationalistic or gruesome nature."
When Joe Biden was Vice President, Obama picked Jen Psaki to be Spokesperson for the US Department of State. Part of Psaki's job as Spokesperson was to gaslight the American public about the arming of Kurdish Marxists by the Obama administration. In 2014, she was photographed multiple times wearing a pink ushanka-hat with a Soviet Red Star/Hammer and Sickle emblem on it. Biden has picked Psaki to be his new White House Press Secretary.
Porter is far from Biden's only black racial extremist. Kristen Clarke, has been picked by Joe Biden to be Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division of the US Department of Justice [DOJ]. She has previously stated that "conservative whites" are intentionally working to maximize the amount of mental damage they can inflict on the minds of black children. She has also said that "melanin endows blacks with greater mental, physical and spiritual abilities." More recently Clarke has been a staunch advocate of big tech deplatforming of conservatives.

We are welcoming the sentencing of a Gateacre teenager to 11-years in prison for the manslaughter of 16-year-old Daniel Gee-Jamieson in Belle Vale last July.
At around 9pm on Tuesday 3 July 2018, emergency services were called to Belle Vale Road after a report of a 16-year-old boy having been stabbed. He was taken to hospital where he was pronounced deceased around midnight.
An extensive investigation into the incident established that two groups of youths had congregated in a nearby field for a fight that night, whereupon a knife was produced and the offender stabbed Daniel.
17-year-old Owen Cousins from Redwood Road was arrested on Wednesday 4 July and later charged. He was convicted of manslaughter last month at Liverpool Crown Court.
Speaking after the sentencing, Senior Investigating Officer, Detective Chief Inspector John Middleton, said: "It was tragic last year to see such a young life ended as a consequence of someone recklessly carrying and using a knife.
"Hopefully today's sentencing at least gives Daniel's family and friends some form of closure and comfort as they continue to come to terms with their loss.
"Tackling violence and knife crime is not something police and the courts can do alone. We continue to work closely with schools and other partners across Merseyside to educate young people about the devastating consequences, which Daniel's death sadly shows.
"We want parents, guardians and young people themselves to help reinforce this message – if you are caught carrying a knife, you are reducing your future prospects. We would urge anyone of any age to think before they consider carrying a knife, whatever the reason.

Why hard Brexit is a damaging fantasy
Martin Woolf in yesterday's online Financial Times https://www.ft.com/content/939c7ed0-8e32-11e6-a72e- hit the nail on the head:
"Formal sovereignty is not power. The UK government announces its intentions. The reaction of others determines results.
"By a thin margin the country voted for some kind of Brexit. But the government has no mandate for the rather extreme version it is choosing. Triggering Article 50 without parliamentary approval might be impossible. It surely ought to be impossible. Moreover, Brexiters insist that their goal is to restore parliamentary sovereignty. Why then does the government plan to ignore parliament when these decisions are taken?"
It's actually worse than that since Government Ministers also seem to be ignoring their officials, taking the Leave side's contempt for "experts" to a new low. Brexit Minister David Davis is now accusing Treasury civil servants of trying to undermine Brexit negotiations as part of a "desperate strategy" to keep Britain in the single market. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/10/11/david-davis-accuses-treasury-officials-of-trying-to-undermine-br/
The redoubtable Mr Davis whose capacity for fantasy is on an exponentially upward leap, is understood to believe that the warning is part of a "succession of treasury briefings that are damaging negotiations"
Whatever Mr Davis thinks, the Treasury is not making this up. Why would they? Surely their lives would be easier if they went along with the Government and threw the well-being of Britain to the winds. Instead, the much derided officials are doing their duty, warning , amongst other things, that according to leaked draft Cabinet papers, if Britain leaves the Single Market without a new deal it will cost the Treasury £66billion in tax revenues.
Meanwhile the City of London, one time cheer-leaders for the Conservatives, are increasingly worried about the impact tougher immigration controls and departure from the single market could have on their revenues. Miles Celic, chief executive of the influential industry body TheCityUK is on record as saying: A "hard Brexit" that takes Britain clean out of the single market, and leaves the U.K. to trade with the EU under WTO rules, will do "significant" harm to the financial services sector."
Back to Martin Woolf: "What drove Leavers was, we are also told, "the principle that decisions about the UK should be taken in the UK". The currency markets demonstrate the emptiness of that principle. Britain's EU partners are about to do the same. The premise of the Leave campaign was false: a host of decisions that affect the UK will always be taken outside it."
It would be comic if it wasn't so serious. We are not talking about cosy sofa politics or even the Oxford Union debating society. This is about people's lives, their quality of life, their health, their education and just about everything else which relies on government to deliver it. Ultimately, it's about today's young people and future generations.
