Langley Home Depot staff members Hammel and Cylee were part of the kick off to the annual Orange Door campaign. This year, all funds raised will go to Langley’s Encompass which supports and serves Langley’s youth at risk and teens who are homeless. The campaign goes until Oct. 9. The Orange Door campaign was started with a goal to end youth homelessness in Canada.

Home Depot kicks off Orange Door campaign

Every dollar donated at the Langley Home Depot will go to Encompass Services Society which helps local at risk youth and homeless youth.

The Langley Home Depot kicked off its Orange Door fundraising campaign Sept. 1, with 100 per cent of funds raised going to Encompass Support Services Society.

Customers shopping at the store can donate $2 at the checkout in exchange for an orange paper door. All donations will stay in the community to help Encompass Support Services Society provide supports to homeless and at-risk youth, including a youth street outreach worker and a youth homelessness initiative.

“Youth homelessness is one of the most urgent social issues in Canada today. Together with our community we’re building a brighter future for young people across Canada —one orange door at a time,” said Jeff Kinnaird, board chair of The Home Depot Canada Foundation and president of Home Depot Canada.

Youth in Langley have come together in conjunction with the Orange Door campaign in hopes of opening an emergency youth homeless shelter. Langley currently does not have a facility to take in youth overnight who are in crisis. Currently they have to go to Surrey or Abbotsford.

The youth task force is also organizing an outdoor concert fundraiser on Sept. 24 at the field at the Langley Events Centre from 1 to 4 p.m.

Currently there are more than 162 Langley youth identified as homeless, with actual numbers expected to be higher. The youth task force also plan to line Langley Bypass with 162 people in October to demonstrate just how many youth are in need in Langley.

The Orange Door Project was established with the goal of eliminating youth homelessness in Canada. In total, 182 Home Depot Canada stores are taking part in this year’s campaign by selling paper orange doors in-store, and by rolling up their sleeves to help local charities complete renovation projects that will help the organizations feel more like home.

The campaign runs from Sept. 1 to Oct. 9.

The 10 stores that raise the most money by the end of the campaign will have their donations matched by The Home Depot Canada

• The Orange Door Project in-store fundraising campaign has raised more than $5.4 million since its inception in 2007.

• In 2015, Home Depot Canada associates donated 60,000 hours of hands-on help in their communities.

• Youth are one of the fastest growing segments of the homeless population in Canada. One in five shelter users in Canada are youth aged 16 to 24.

• Every night, 6,000 young people in Canada either sleep outside or go to an emergency shelter. Even more are part of a hidden homeless population who ‘couch surf’ with family or friends.

‘Disgruntled’ ex-employee kills five, turns weapon on self in Orlando

ORLANDO, Fla. – A “disgruntled” ex-employee kills five people before turning his weapon on himself at an Orlando business Monday morning, police said.

Officers responded to a call about an active shooter at Fiamma off Forsyth Road in Orange County, near Full Sail University, just after 8 a.m., Orange County Sheriff Jerry Demings said in a news conference. Deputies arrived two minutes later, where they found three men and a woman dead at the scene. A fifth person, a man, was rushed to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead. An additional seven people inside the business survived the shooting.

Demings said that the unnamed individual believed to be the shooter, who killed himself, was identified as a 45-year-old man who had been fired from Fiamma Inc. in April 2017. The business manufactures awnings and such for recreational vehicles.

The man accused of multiple murders was armed with a handgun and knife, according to Demings. It did not appear that he used the knife, only the firearm. The sheriff said his identity will be disclosed at a later time.

The troubled employee had a criminal history “minor in nature,” with arrests for possession of marijuana and DUI, reported Fox News.

Officers had been called to the company back in June 2014 for a “workplace violence incident” in which “he allegedly battled another employee here in the business,” Demings said.

Shelley Adams told The Associated Press that her sister, Sheila McIntyre, called her from the building’s bathroom during the shooting and was very upset. She kept repeating, “My boss is dead. My boss is dead,” Adams said.

A woman who was in the awning manufacturers business ran out of the building, saying the gunman told her to leave, according to Fox 35 Orlando.

Yamaris Gomez, who is the owner of a tile store across the street, said that the woman ran out of the Fiamma, Inc. facility and across the street to call law enforcement.

Gomez says the woman told her that the gunman instructed her to leave the facility. Gomez says the woman ran across the street, calling law enforcement on her phone.

The FBI was on scene assessing the crime, according to a spokesperson from the bureau. But Demings said authorities could not “connect the incident to any global terrorism.”

Florida Gov. Rick Scott said in a statement that he has been briefed on the situation.

“Over the past year, the Orlando community has been challenged like never before,” Scott said.

“Ann and I are praying for the families who lost loved ones today. I ask all Floridians to pray for the families impacted by this senseless act of violence. I will remain in contact with the Orlando law enforcement community throughout the day as more information is made available,” the statement read.

The shooting comes a week before the one-year anniversary of the Pulse nightclub massacre, also in Orlando, where 49 people were fatally shot by Omar Mateen, an Islamic extremist.

Shoulder pain is the third most common presenting complaint to the primary care practice. Age is a factor which plays an important role in predicting injuries. Clavicular fractures are usually traumatic. Shoulder dislocations are more common in teens to the fourth decade. Other conditions which can give rise to acute shoulder pain are impingement syndrome, frozen shoulder, and bursitis. Diagnosis of these conditions is mostly clinical and radiological investigation supports the diagnosis, with the management depending on the etiology.

Shoulder pain is a common symptom that might originate from an intrinsic shoulder problem or an extrinsic problem. The most common causes of extrinsic referred shoulder pain include myocardial ischemia and neck pathology.

Intrinsic shoulder pain originates from the structures that make up the shoulder joint which include: the humerus, glenoid, scapula, acromium clavicle, and surrounding soft tissues.

Causes of Shoulder Pain

According to the duration of pain, the causes of shoulder pain can be classified into acute and chronic:

Acute shoulder pain Chronic shoulder pain
Fracture and dislocation Osteoarthritis of shoulder
Rotator cuff lesions

  • Impingement syndrome
  • Rotator cuff tear
  • Painful arc syndrome
Rheumatoid arthritis
Adhesive Capsulitis (Frozen shoulder) Partial rotator cuff tear
Subacromial bursitis

Fracture and Dislocation

Clavicle fracture

A fractured clavicle accounts for 5% of all fractures and it also accounts for more than 50% of injuries around the shoulder joint. It is one of the most common childhood fractures. Most fractures occur in the middle third of the clavicle. The most common cause of clavicular fractures is trauma.

Patients with a clavicular fracture present with pain and tenderness over the clavicle. Swelling is another common finding. The patient is unable to abduct his or her shoulder. Deformity over the shoulder with the unopposed action of pectoralis major muscle, the lateral fragment is displaced downwards and medially while the proximal segment is displaced upwards by the unopposed the action of the sternocleidomastoid muscle.

Diagnosis is simple in most cases and based on:

  • A recent history of trauma followed by pain, swelling, deformity, and loss of function at the site of fracture and involved joint.
  • One must look for any evidence of a neurovascular deficit in the distal limb.
  • The diagnosis can be confirmed on an X-ray.

Clavicular fractures rarely require rigid fixation as the strong muscles surrounding the bone act to reduce and hold the fractured segments together. In adults, immobilization using a triangular sling suffices in cases with minimum displacement. A figure-of-8 bandage may be applied to a young adult with a displaced fracture. Immobilization and reduction serve the purpose of pain relief in the acute setting and later allow for the formation of callus and healing without deformities.

Open reduction and internal fixation with a plate or a nail are indicated in:

  • Fractures associated with the neurovascular deficit.
  • In some severely displaced fractures, where it may be more of a cosmetic concern.

  • Early complications: Injury to the neurovascular bundle more so the subclavian vessels or brachial plexus.
  • Late complications: Shoulder stiffness, malunion and nonunion (the latter being very rare).

Scapular fracture

Fractures of the scapula are less common, and, in most cases, unimportant because patients recover well without much treatment.

The scapula can break at four sites:

  • Body
  • Neck
  • Acromion process
  • Coracoid process

Most often, the fracture is undisplaced because the fragments are held in position by the surrounding muscles.

The mainstay of treatment is to restore shoulder mobility by active exercises as soon as the pain subsides. A triangular sling for the period of pain and swelling (usually 1 week – 10 days) is usually sufficient.

Subluxation or dislocation of the acromioclavicular joint

This is an uncommon injury, caused by a fall on the outer prominence of the shoulder.

The injury may result in a partial or complete rupture of the acromioclavicular or coracoclavicular ligaments. Acromioclavicular joint injuries are classified according to the 6-grade system described by Rockwood depending upon their severity.

The following table summarizes the most recent classification of acromioclavicular joint injuries:

Type Clavicle position Acromioclavicular ligament Coracoclavicular ligament Joint capsule Deltoid muscle Trapezius muscle
I Not displaced Mildly sprained Intact Intact Intact Intact
II Elevated, but not above the acromion Ruptured Sprained Ruptured Slightly detached Slightly Detached
III Elevated with a coracoclavicular distance < 25 mm Ruptured Ruptured Ruptured Detached Detached
IV Posterior to trapezius Ruptured Ruptured Ruptured Detached Detached
V Elevated with a coracoclavicular distance > 25 mm Ruptured Ruptured Ruptured Detached Detached
VI Inferior to the coracoclavicular ligament and biceps tendon Ruptured Ruptured Ruptured Detached Detached

Diagnosis is depicted by pain and swelling localized to the acromioclavicular joint. In a Grade III injury, the lateral end of the clavicle may be unusually prominent.

Bilateral shoulder X-ray with the acromioclavicular joints of both sides exposed for comparison. Subluxation or dislocation of the joint may be seen.

Grades I and II injuries are treated by rest in a triangular sling and analgesics. Grade III injury in young athletic individuals is treated by surgical repair.

Dislocation of the shoulder

This is the commonest joint in the human body to dislocate. It occurs more commonly in adults and is rare in children. Anterior dislocations account for more than 95% of dislocations, with posterior dislocations making up 4% and inferior dislocations (luxatio erecta).

Superior and intrathoracic dislocations are extremely rare.

A smaller number have an atraumatic origin and may be related to congenital, acquired, or degenerative conditions.

Shoulder instability refers to the condition where the head of the humerus is not stable in the glenoid. It has a wide spectrum – from minor instability or a ‘loose shoulder’ to a frank dislocation. In the former, the patient may present with just pain in the shoulder, more on using the shoulder. Pain occurs due to stretching of the capsule, as the head ‘moves out’ in some direction without dislocating. A patient with frank instability may present with an ‘abnormal’ movement of the head of the humerus. This could be partial movement (subluxation) which gets spontaneously reduced or a dislocation.

The instability may be in one direction (unidirectional) or more (bidirectional). It may be in multiple directions – anterior, inferior, posterior, where it is called multi-directional instability (MDI).

Dislocations of the shoulder may be of the following types:

  1. Anterior dislocation: In this injury, while the arm is held in slight abduction and external rotation, the shoulder is “squared off” (i.e., boxlike) with the loss of deltoid contour compared to the contralateral side. The humeral head is palpable anteriorly (in the subcoracoid region, beneath the clavicle). The patient resists abduction and internal rotation and is thus unable to touch the opposite shoulder. It may be further classified into three sub-types depending on the position of the dislocated head.
    1. Preglenoid: The head lies anterior to the glenoid.
    2. Subcoracoid: The head lies inferior to the coracoid process which is the most common type of dislocation.
    3. Sub clavicular: The head lies below the clavicle.
  2. Posterior dislocation: In this injury, the arm is held in adduction and internal rotation. The anterior shoulder is “squared off” and flat with the prominent coracoid process. The head of the humerus comes to lie posteriorly behind the glenoid. The posterior shoulder is full of humeral head, palpable beneath the acromion process. The patient resists external rotation and abduction. Shoulders may look identical in bilateral dislocation, making it a commonly missed injury.
  3. Luxatioerecta (inferior dislocation): This is a rare type, where the head comes to lie in the sub glenoid position.

Clinical feature and diagnosis:

The patient’s shoulder is held in abduction and the elbow supported with the opposite hand. There is a history of a fall on an outstretched hand, followed by pain and loss of function at the shoulder. There may be a history of similar episodes in the past.

On examination:

The patient keeps his arm abducted. There is an obvious deformity with the normal round contour of the shoulder joint being lost.

On careful inspection, one may notice fullness below the clavicle due to the displaced head. This can be felt by rotating the arm. Tests that indicate anterior dislocation include:

  • Dugas’ test: The inability to touch the opposite shoulder.
  • Hamilton ruler test: Because of the flattening of the shoulder, it is possible to place a ruler on the lateral side of the arm. This touches the acromion and lateral condyle of the humerus simultaneously.

The diagnosis is easily confirmed on an anteroposterior X-ray of the shoulder. An axillary view is sometimes required.

Treatment of acute dislocation is reduction under sedation or general anesthesia, followed by immobilization of the shoulder in a chest-arm bandage for three weeks. Shoulder reduction is done by:

  • Kocher’s maneuver
  • Hippocrates manoeuvre

The surgical methods adopted for treatment are:

  • Putti-Platt operation
  • Bankert’s operation
  • Bristow’s operation
  • Arthroscopic Bankert repair

Adhesive Capsulitis (Frozen shoulder)

It is defined as a clinical syndrome characterized by painful restriction of movement of both active and passive shoulder movement due to causes within the shoulder joint or remote.

  • Prevalence is 2% among the population
  • In diabetic patients, the prevalence is higher i.e. 20—30%
  • The female gender is more susceptible
  • It mostly occurs in middle aged people
  • 10% of the cases have bilateral distribution

  • Idiopathic
  • Tendinitis of rotator cuff, bicipital tendinitis
  • Fracture and dislocation of shoulder joints
  • Other diseases which increase the risk of frozen shoulder are diabetes, cardiovascular disease, reflex sympathetic dystrophy, Colle’s fracture etc.

Clinical features

  • Pain
  • Decreased range of movement (external rotation > abduction > internal rotation)
  • Accessory joint movement restriction
  • Unable to do routine daily activity

Adhesive capsulitis has three stages:

  • Stage I: Stage of pain
  • Stage II: Stage of stiffness
  • Stage III: Stage of recovery

An X-ray usually reveals a normal appearance of the joint, but a few cases shows sclerosis around greater tuberosity.

  • Intra-articular steroids
  • Exercise – both active and passive

Rotator cuff lesions

Painful arc syndrome

It is also known as shoulder impingement syndrome or subacromial impingement. It arises from the irritation or inflammation of the rotator cuff muscles and tendons as they pass through the subacromial space. This causes pain in the shoulder and upper arm during the mid-range of glenohumeral abduction.

The subacromial space is a narrow space that is narrowed further during abduction; thus, any lesion that takes up space is likely to cause a painful arc syndrome because, once the space between the upper end of the humerus and the acromion gets compromised, during mid-abduction the tendon of the rotator cuff gets nipped between the greater tuberosity and acromion. Examples of such conditions include:

  • Minor tears of the supraspinatus tendon
  • Supraspinatus tendinitis
  • Calcification of supraspinatus tendon
  • Subacromial bursitis
  • Fracture of the greater tuberosity

An X-ray of the shoulder may show a calcific deposit or a fracture of the greater tuberosity or acromion.

  • Ultrasonic to the tender point
  • Anti-inflammatory drugs
  • Injection of hydrocortisone in the subacromial space

Rotator cuff lesions

Rotator cuff lesions include:

  • Rotator cuff impingement syndrome
  • Rotator cuff tear

1) Impingement syndrome is commonly associated with supraspinatus tendons. The following are the causes of impingement syndrome:

  • Supraspinatus tendonitis
  • Calcific deposits
  • Subacromial bursitis
  • Subdeltoid bursitis
  • Peri-arthritis
  • Bicipital tendonitis
  • Fracture of greater trochanter

The most common cause is supraspinatus tendonitis. The most vulnerable structures for impingement between under surface of acromion and head of the humerus.

2) Rotator cuff tear:

It occurs mostly in people over 40 year old. People who have an occupation demanding repetitive overhead movement are most prone. Athletes like throwers, swimmers, tennis players are also vulnerable. Most occur in the male population.

Classification of Rotator cuff tear

  • Small (< 1 cm)
  • Medium (1 – 3 cm)
  • Large (3 – 5 cm)

Clinical features

  • Pain
  • Swelling
  • Limitation of movement
  • Muscle atrophy
  • Tenderness of greater tuberosity

Differential diagnosis

  • Frozen shoulder
  • Cervical spondylosis
  • ACM and shoulder joint arthritis
  • Bursitis
  • Snapping scapula
  • Suprascapular neuropathy

  • X-ray changes in rotator cuff lesions are decreased sub acromion space, anterior spurring of ACM joint, humeral head degeneration and sclerosis
  • A single contrast arthrogram is considered gold standard
  • Ultrasonography
  • MRI are very accurate, but expensive

Conservative treatment: heat massage, NSAIDSs, local infiltration of steroids, subacromial steroid injections, exercise, and temporary immobilization.

Surgical treatment

  • Arthroscopic repair of small and partial tears
  • Open methods in major tears

Subacromial bursitis

Bursitis commonly occurs in the shoulder at the subacromial area. Inflammatory bursitis usually results from injuries resulting from repetitive injury to the bursa. The subacromial bursa assists the supraspinatus tendon with any overhead movements of the shoulder.

  • Subacromial bursitis symptoms include tenderness at the tip of the shoulder, pain with passive abduction, and symptoms of shoulder impingement syndrome.
  • Treatment includes rest, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications, and orthopedic referral.

    00:00 Renshaw Cells Renshaw cells aren’t involved within afferent, efferent reflex.

    00:09 But instead, they are engage when you have a contraction through alpha motor neurons.

    00:15 So this is information being send down the spinal cord to the alpha motor neuron to get a constriction.

    00:22 At the same time as getting the constriction from the alpha motor neuron, there is feedback that is then stimulating the Renshaw cell.

    00:31 That Renshaw cell that gets stimulated then inhibits further alpha motor unit contraction.

    00:38 So this is also is a preventive mechanism, and this is helpful in reducing the amount of force output and limiting the contraction duration.

    00:49 It is spot that this Renshaw cells, might be involve a little bit when a person goes through something like weight training.

    00:57 They start to get stronger, quicker than they are increasing the amount of the muscle mass.

    01:02 So maybe you are releasing some of these inhibition that is put on by a Renshaw cells.

    01:08 Pain Withdraw Reflex This is one of our more complicated reflexes.

    01:14 And involves many aspects including both sides or two limbs.

    01:21 This revolves something like stepping it on something painful.

    01:25 We’ve all done these before. You step on something that was really sharp.

    01:30 There is a reflex that happens that doesn’t involves the brain just the spinal cord for you to respond to these.

    01:36 First, you have this cutaneous pain receptor which is usually a sharp pain being sent up to the spinal cord.

    01:45 That information is sensed at the level of the spinal cord and a reflex response results.

    01:53 The first thing that happens is you have a stimulation to the opposite leg.

    02:00 And that stimulation is to extend the quadriceps and relax the hamstrings.

    02:06 On the leg that is being have the pain stimulus, there is a withdraw reflex.

    02:13 Meaning that you have a reduction in the amount of alpha motor neurons going to the quadriceps and an increase are ones going to the hamstring with your semimembranosus and tendinosis.

    02:27 Why are muscle reflexes so important? The main reason why muscle reflexes are there is to prevent injury.

    02:36 So we saw through things like the stretch reflex.

    02:39 Muscles spindle sensing the amount of stretch and then causing a contraction of that muscle because it was being stretch too much.

    02:48 In Golgi tendon organs, we have a response where there is too much tension on a tendon.

    02:54 Therefore we have to reduce the amount of tension.

    02:57 You do that by relaxing the muscle that is undergoing that increase intension and contracting the opposite muscle group so that you don’t have so much tension on that tendon.

    03:09 With things like the pain reflex, this is a response in which you need to contract some muscles and relax others.

    03:18 And you that all in that effort to prevent yourself from falling.

    03:22 So all these reflexes in combination are there to protect the body from getting injured or falling.

What We Bought, the New World
by Robert Adams
Publisher's Description
This new book of Robert Adams' photographs from the 1970s is another aspect of his ongoing document of the American landscape. But this time, instead of capturing the beauty of a natural setting, Adams focuses on the city of Denver, Colorado. These desolate images of suburban housing developments, shopping malls, cars, and supermarkets mourn the victory of consumerism over our so-called love of nature and rugged individualism. The book is a subtly devastating portrait of the infiltration of mass-production in the American landscape.

Burlington, Vt. - More than 1,000 people flocked to Church Street to sing, dance and advocate for the future of Vermont's children.
"Let's Grow Kids" was the message in Burlington Sunday morning as people from all over the state came to raise awareness about what they consider to be Vermont's critical shortage of high quality affordable child care by leading a parade and flash mob.
The owner of Sunshine Daydream Child Care Elen Drolette said quality care is crucial to a child's development.
"80 to 90% of brain development starts between 0 and 5 years old so there's a lot at stake so we need to get it right," Drolette said. "We need to make sure that families have access to quality childcare at a young age."
Drolette is concerned for families that are faced with choosing between quality and afforability. She said the parade and flashmob was so great because it's bringing attention to the issue.

Five MMOs Worth Sinking Time Into This Holiday Season

Around this particularly festive time of year, it’s not uncommon for many gamers to find a great disparity between the amount of money they have to spend on games and the time they have to play them. Some shell out for all of the big holiday blockbusters only to be caught up in family gatherings while others find themselves at home with little to spent and all the time in the world.

For this latter group, there’s a simple solution – pick up an MMO. The genre has come a long way in recent years and there’s plenty of great holiday gaming destinations to pick from.

Given its predisposed-prominence, it should surprise nobody that World of Warcraft is one of the frontrunners for holiday time sinks.

Whether you’re a returning player or a new one, Blizzard has the genre down to a science and you’ll likely have a good time whether you’re taking the plunge into the game’s raiding endgame or still leveling through four expansions-worth of content. For new players, there’s a lot of value here with Blizzard throwing in all but the game’s most recent expansion for all newcomers. On the other hand, the release of Warlords of Draenor is a great excuse for more-experience to return to Azeroth to try out new additions to the game like Garrisons and Followers.

If you were a fan of Bioware’s Knights of the Old Republic series but the prospects of the series transition to an MMORPG disappointed you, now may be the time to get over that prejudice and sink your teeth into The Old Republic. Since launch, Bioware have added reams of content and dropped the subscription fee – making the experience of playing it more like that of classic KOTOR than ever before. The game’s latest expansion, Shadow of Revan has even brought one of the series’ most infamous names back into the thick of things, providing experienced players with some fresh story content.

Lord of the Rings Online was a game that got some attention when it launched back in 2007 but has fallen by the wayside in the face of recent MMO releases like Wildstar. In spite of this, developer Turbine have been hard at work expanding the game’s enormous main quest each year. At launch, the game’s story had yet to see players enter the Mines of Moria but is LOTRO players today can journey all the way to Helm’s Deep. It’s an impressive endeavor with a phenomenal appreciation for the source material (the books more-so than the films) and while the gameplay is a little cookie-cutter, it’s an easy holiday game to recommend for Tolkien fans.

More Space!

Space is big. So big, in fact, that I feel it should earn more than a single mention when it comes to the subject of holiday gaming. Behind World of Warcraft, I wouldn’t hesitate to call EVE Online the most impressive player in the field and if The Old Republic’s spacefaring segments failed to satisfy, it may be the game for you. Icelandic developer CCP has crafted an enormous simulation of space warfare and commerce and – while there’s a definitely a steep learning curve – the sense of place that inhabits EVE: Online is second to none.

If you fancy something a little more unpredictable and emergent, EVE may be for you.

New Eden

Do you wish Borderlands was massively-multiplayer and had more jetpacks? Then Red 5 Studios Firefall may be just the holiday gaming timesink you need. Set on a futuristic Earth left unrecognizable by a cosmic anomaly known as The Melding, Firefall is a massively multiplayer first person shooter (MMOFPS).

 Firefall Sc2

Like any MMO, it’s got its fair share of problems (which you can read about here) but if you’re tired of the cooldown-juggling associated with most MMOs, it may make for a fresh change of pace and a great holiday timesink.

Why You Need To Rethink Your 'Perfect' Online Dating Photos

As you attempt to craft the ideal online dating profile, you might want to think twice about using a picture that makes you look exceptionally good. A little maths explains why having a "so-so" profile photo can actually increase your likelihood of meeting someone.

In a recent TED talk, mathematician Hannah Fry took to the stage to discuss the mathematics of love, and how you can use that maths to your advantage. Using data collected from OKCupid, Fry explains how looking too good in your photo is limiting your overall range. When you look too good in a photo, it can make people feel like they don't have a chance with you, so they don't bother.

Of course, a really terrible photo won't help much either, but a photo somewhere in the middle ground is what you want to shoot for. You want to look somewhat attractive without looking like you're too out of reach. Express what makes you different and keep the tone down to Earth. There are a lot of great ways to make sure your profile picture helps you instead of hurting you, but you probably want to save the glamour shots for something else.

Hannah Fry: The mathematics of love [YouTube]

    One thing I would say is, have a picture that shows how "you look" not just your face.

Life Science Compliance Update

Genentech & Escobar: Using Materiality to Escape False Claims Liability

Written by , Posted in False claims

Robert N. Wilkey, Esq., Staff Writer for Life Science Compliance Update

In constructively bringing an end to a False Claims Act (“FCA”) whistleblower suit alleging Genentech, Inc.(“Genentech”) of defrauding Medicare by way of concealing substantive health care analytics data involving purported side effects of the company’s cancer drug Avastin the Third Circuit of Appeals in a recent decision determined that the Plaintiff in this matter had failed to demonstrate that any noncompliance had an impact on government payments. Specifically, the Court applied the prevailing standard in Escobar that an FCA lawsuit must demonstrate that any misrepresentation is “material” to the government’s payment decision. In dismissing this suit and invoking this heightened standard of materiality, the Third Circuit not only reinforces Escobar but places the now clear burden on FCA Plaintiffs to demonstrate that any noncompliance was material to alleged fraudulent payments.

    i run mine at 3.800 in my sendero. i think they are around 0.1 off the lands. i have never really measured other than chambering a bullet in a fired case then measuring it. these have been legitimate 1/2 moa in my gun out to 500 yards and moa or better after that (shot to 990).
    they are really working well for me.

    The whole point of the hybrid design is to provide a high bc bullet without the sensitivity to seating depth of the VLD designs. I doubt very much that fine tuning your seating depth with a hybrid will yield much in the way of an accuracy increase.

    With the hybrid, your COAL can be dictated by your chamber and magazine dimensions. Load to a length that feeds and functions in your rifle and work up your powder charges to find your accuracy nodes.

    I just finished working with some 185g Hybrids in a .308. They were very easy to tune using powder charge.

  1. It's a LEGO game

    Like all LEGO games it's just plain fun. Good for the kids to pass time and fun storyline.

  2. Excellent Game!
    by SPvanG, Netherlands - Mar 22nd 2014

    I absolutely love this game! I've played this game a lot with my 7-year-old son on our Nintendo Wii and bought this copy for my Mac to secretly practice. Feral Interactive made an excellent version for the Mac. It looks wonderful and runs pretty smooth on my late 2008 MacBook. If you are not familiar with the LEGO games, try one of the free demos. They are all basically the same: simple, fun and with a distinct sense of humor that works for all ages. This particular LEGO Game is special for its unique storytelling, its use of voice actors and the (optional) open world gameplay. Like all LEGO games, this game is most fun when played together using wireless controllers. But also if you don't own a set of gamepads and a kid, this game is very much recommended. It is worth its full price!

  3. Great Game!!
    by Froggie, USA - Jun 27th 2013

    Lego gaming at it's best! Something new added is the characters actually talk. The rivalry between Batman and Superman is quite funny. The game loads a little slow and some places seem to run "too" fast, but not enough to make gameplay impossible. So far the game appears quite long. Challenging, but not impossible.

Apple has said that it will investigate the death of a Chinese woman, who is believed to have been killed by an electric shock that occurred when she answered a call on her iPhone 5 while it was on charge.

23-year-old Ma Ailun died on Thursday, after she was electrocuted by a charging iPhone 5 according to police.

In an email sent to Reuters today, Apple said: "We are deeply saddened to learn of this tragic incident and offer our condolences to the Ma family. We will fully investigate and cooperate with authorities in this matter."

Apple has not commented further, and has declined comment on whether this was an isolated case, says Reuters. This is the first we've heard of such incident, however. In 2008, Apple did recall millions of iPhone 3G power adapters, though, as they were believed to pose a shock hazard.

Following the accident, Ma's sister took to microblog Sina Weibo to warn other iPhone users to be careful.

The day begins with a light continental breakfast, at our booking office at the Mad Dog Cafe & Market in Dead Man's Flats. Here the guides will ensure that you have all the clothing and equipment needed for your 2 day adventure.

Once at the Spray Lakes, you will be encouraged to assist in unloading the teams, harnessing the dogs and setting up the sleds to get familiar with your dogs and equipment. A hot soup & sandwich lunch will be provided before heading out on the trail. Once on the trail, you will enjoy an exhilarating dog sled ride with breathtaking views of the Spray Valley. This trail takes you out over the frozen lake then up into the trees to navigate an exciting trail to Mt Nester Viewpoint where our back-country campsite resides. Here you will enjoy a campfire to warm up by while camp is set up with hot drinks and snacks. You will have time to play with the dogs, walk around the general area looking for animal tracks, and to get some fantastic pictures while your guides prepare your evening meal. The evening is spent sharing stories while building smores and drinking hot chocolate before crawling into your cozy 4-season tent.

In the morning your guide will prepare you a breakfast by the campfire then it is back out on the trail for another 5-6 hours of dog sledding as you explore the lake further South, past Buller Creek & Smutz Creek, following the South shore to our day camp below Isolation Ridge. Here you will enjoy a trailside lunch and views SW down Bryant Creek and W to the flanks of Fortune Mountain. Once back on the trail, you will loop around the Frozen Islands, going up and down frozen ice rifts, to connect to the trail back to the trailhead.

When out on the trail, you will be given the opportunity to drive your sled with the assistance of your qualified guide or you can just sit back in the sled and enjoy the wonderful Canadian winter scenery.

As it is a secondary gravel road to the trailhead, we ask that vehicles have a min of front wheel drive and good all-season tires. If nervous about driving in winter conditions, we can provide a lead car to the site from the Mad Dog Cafe in Dead Man's Flats. It would take approx 2.25 hrs from Calgary, 35 min from Canmore, and 1.25 hours from Banff. See our "Map Page" for more info.

  • Small Group Sizes, Real Adventure

    There are a number of dog sledding companies in the Canadian Rockies to choose from. At Mad Dogs & Englishmen Expeditions, we believe in providing an authentic experience, with small group sizes, usually with a maximum of 3 sleds unless more are required for larger groups. By choosing us, you will experience a more personable, relaxed, real adventure... Experience what mushing is really like!

Building Your Author Brand

Nowadays when we hear the word “branding” we tend to think in terms of marketing, but branding originally meant to mark something or claim it. Whether this was done to prove that a cow belonged to a rancher and not to the rustler that stole it or whether it was done to ostracize someone, the point was to notify the world.

As authors, it’s time for us to make our own marks on the world and claim our writing space as our own.

6 Reasons to Upgrade to the iPhone 8
Pinterest Stumbleupon Whatsapp

I’ve been playing with the iPhone 8 for a week or two, and in that time I’ve only found a handful of reasons to actually upgrade beyond the iPhone 6s and 7. That’s not to say it’s a bad phone, but it’s not a particularly compelling upgrade.

If the iPhone 8 falls flat for you and you’re still looking for a way to put a dent in your wallet, you’re better off waiting for the upcoming iPhone X instead Apple Announces iPhone X & iPhone 8: Everything You Need to Know Apple Announces iPhone X & iPhone 8: Everything You Need to Know What's so special about the iPhone X? Can you really justify the $999 price tag, or is the refined iPhone 8 a better buy? Read More .

So let’s explore your options, and consider the alternatives.

1. Your iPhone Is Old

When I say old, I mean “iPhone 6 old” — a three-year old device. If you’re coming from an A8 processor, slow Touch ID scanner, tinny speakers, no weather or dust proofing, and a paltry amount of storage, the iPhone 8 is a great buy. It’s a refined version of last year’s iPhone 7 and you’ll notice a huge leap in performance.

iphone 8 reasons to upgrade

An aging device is the number one reason for upgrading this time around. The iPhone 6s is still a serviceable phone iPhone 6s Review and Giveaway iPhone 6s Review and Giveaway Spoiler alert: if you like iPhones, you’re probably going to love the iPhone 6s. But are you really surprised? Read More , and it doesn’t lack any huge features not present on the iPhone 8. You’ve got 3D Touch, hands-free Siri, a decent fingerprint scanner, and a solid A9 system-on-a-chip. You even get a real headphone port The Headphone Jack Is Dead and I Blame Google The Headphone Jack Is Dead and I Blame Google That's right, folks, with the Pixel 2, Google has joined the Apple-led ranks and killed the headphone jack. Read More !

If you’re noticing a serious slowdown, tabs and apps falling out of memory all the time, and disappointing battery life then a new iPhone will fix that. But if you’ve been getting along just fine or are willing to invest in a USB battery or charging case, you’re better off waiting another year and seeing what Apple brings to the table in 2018.

Alternatively: Your iPhone 6s or 7 still performs well and holds a charge.

2. 4K Video at 60 FPS and Better Stills

The Panasonic GH5 does 60 frames per second in glorious 4K, but it costs $2000 without any lenses. Sony’s impressively small a6500 doesn’t support the feature at all, instead capping out at 4K 30 frames, and costs $1,400 without a lens.

The fact that the iPhone 8 manages full 4K video at 60 frames per second is amazing, and a testament to the power of Apple’s new A11 Bionic system-on-chip. Granted, you’re not going to get Panasonic or Sony-level images, the footage will be noisier, you can’t change lenses, and depth of field is crushed by the proximity of the lens to the sensor.

iphone 8 reasons to upgrade

But this is still a huge achievement. If you work with video or are a keen hobbyist, the iPhone 8 could be an invaluable tool in capturing additional B-roll. A frame rate of 60 frames per second will allow you to play the footage back at half-speed, for smoother pans and some degree of slow-motion.

And you don’t need to publish in 4K to appreciate the format. Merely downsampling a 4K image to 2K or 1080p can provide better-looking footage than native 1080p capture. You can also crop your footage, apply a Ken Burns effect, or take decent-quality stills. If you can shoot in 4K, you should shoot in 4K.

Alternatively: You don’t give two hoots about 4K video, let alone 60 frames per second, like most people.

3. You’re Ready for Wireless Charging

Wireless charging is great, provided you’re ready for it. That means you have a few charging pads around the house, specifically Qi chargers The Best iPhone Wireless Chargers That Are Cheaper Than Apple's The Best iPhone Wireless Chargers That Are Cheaper Than Apple's The iPhone X and iPhone 8 can be charged wirelessly. But most Apple fans don't know that there are cheaper and better wireless chargers available. Read More that are compatible with the iPhone 8 and upcoming X. For many of us, wired chargers are just fine. For others, wireless charging is a big deal.

Unfortunately, Apple doesn’t include any sort of wireless charging pad in the box, and their first party AirPad won’t be released until some time in 2018. That means you’ll have to buy additional third-party hardware to take advantage of the hardware.

iphone 8 reasons to upgrade

If you hate looking for chargers or are constantly fraying cables, the expense may be worth it. Some Qi chargers cost less than a high-quality Lightning cable 7 Great Lightning Cables To Charge Your iPhone Or iPad 7 Great Lightning Cables To Charge Your iPhone Or iPad One of the most common problems faced by iPhone and iPad owners is a frayed and unusable Lightning connector. Surely there must be tougher, more ruggedized aftermarket options available? Read More , but they’re also less practical and can’t be used to transfer data or back up with iTunes.

But if you’re ready for the wireless future, so is the iPhone 8.

Alternatively: You’re not ready for wireless charging until Apple puts something in the box.

4. You Charge Your Phone Multiple Times a Day

The iPhone 8 gets roughly the same battery life as the iPhone 7, so the new model isn’t going to last any longer. One thing it does do is support fast charging, which promises to get you up to 50 percent battery within 30 minutes. This could be the difference between leaving your iPhone plugged in for hours or a few quick bursts throughout the day.

Just like Qi charging, the iPhone 8 doesn’t come with a fast charger in the box. Apple recommends you pair its $50 29w USB adapter with a $25 USB-C to Lightning power cable in order to take advantage of the feature. You can also use third party adapters, but look for the “Made for iPhone” standard and be mindful of cheap fire hazards, especially since we’re talking about higher voltage.

iphone 8 reasons to upgrade

The other option would be to replace your old phone’s battery with a new one for like-new performance, buy a USB battery charger, or upgrade to a chunky battery case. None of those solutions are as elegant, and they all require some sort of expenditure, which doesn’t make the $75 worth of first party accessories seem so bad.

Alternatively: You bought a Plus-sized iPhone for this reason Which iPhone is Best for You? Which iPhone is Best for You? Apple currently sells five different models of smartphone. If you've decided you want to buy an iPhone, you might be wondering which one you should go for. Read More , or you never leave the house without a USB battery.

5. The iPhone X Is Expensive and Scary

Assuming you’ve decided that 2017 is your “year of the upgrade” then you’ve got two main choices: the iPhone 8 or the upcoming iPhone X. You can add a third choice and settle for last year’s iPhone 7 for $150 less, or the 7 Plus with its dual-lens camera and superior battery life.

But if you find yourself reluctant to spend $1000 on a smartphone, the iPhone 8 is your best choice. You’ll get the same raw power in the A11 Bionic system-on-a-chip, without the redesign and facial recognition features found in the X. You can charge it wirelessly and fast with the right hardware, and opt for the larger 256GB model and still have change.

iphone 8 reasons to upgrade

In fact, you can buy an Apple Watch and a 64GB iPhone 8 for only $20 more than the base model iPhone X. If you’re stuck on Touch ID and don’t much fancy raising your phone to your face in order to unlock or authorize it Buying an iPhone X? Face ID Might Make You Reconsider Buying an iPhone X? Face ID Might Make You Reconsider The iPhone X's most notable feature is the Face ID device unlock system. But how secure is it? Will Apple have access to a huge database of everyone's faces? Read More , the iPhone 8 is the better buy.

We don’t even know how well facial recognition will work at this stage, and next year’s model is likely to improve on the technology in the same way that the iPhone 6 provided noticeable improvements over the 5s’ implementation of Touch ID.

Alternatively: What’s $300 for a taste of the future, man?

6. You Don’t Like Change

This might be your last chance to get an iPhone that looks like the three models that came before it. The beauty here is even though the design hasn’t changed very much, the technology within has improved dramatically.

Touch ID is fast and responsive now, and coupled with Apple’s “Raise to Wake” feature you don’t need to hit a button for your iPhone to come to life. When you do finally unlock your device, it’s not a physical button anymore but a touch-sensitive panel that simulates a click. That means no moving parts on what was a common point of weakness.

The simulated click is made possible by haptic feedback, which provides a more tactile experience with short buzzes and clicks, as well as more expressive alerts (and no vibrating motor inside). One area you might notice this is 3D Touch, a pressure-sensitive “third click” for your iPhone Everything You Can Do With 3D Touch on Your iPhone Everything You Can Do With 3D Touch on Your iPhone 3D touch is really just a fancy name for a pressure-sensitive screen, but adds a whole array of extra input options to iOS. Read More for accessing contextual menus and features.

Siri received the hands-free treatment as of iOS 9, with all iPhone 6s and later devices now able to use the “Hey, Siri” voice command to talk to the assistant without touching their device Make the Most of Hands-Free "Hey Siri" on Your iPhone or iPad Make the Most of Hands-Free "Hey Siri" on Your iPhone or iPad Here's how Apple's hands-free "Hey Siri" command can make your life easier. Read More . And that’s before we look at the system-on-a-chip, camera optics, true stereo speakers, weather and dust proofing, and display enhancements (to name a few).

The iPhone 8 is arguably Apple’s most refined design, while still managing to make users coming from much older devices feel right at home.

Alternatively: You don’t want this year’s upgrade to feel just like the last three, for better or worse.

Will You Be Upgrading?

A boring upgrade isn’t necessarily a bad upgrade, particularly if you look how far the iPhone has come in the last few years. Ultimately it comes down to expectation and cost, assuming you even need an upgrade in the first place.

If you are thinking of parting with your cash we’d always recommend buying your next iPhone outright, since carrier deals are often much more expensive in the long run Never Buy a Phone From Your Carrier! Buy Unlocked Phones and Save Hundreds Never Buy a Phone From Your Carrier! Buy Unlocked Phones and Save Hundreds Unlocked phones can cost a fortune, but the savings more than make up for it. You can save thousands by not signing a contract. We've got six phones that come contract free! Read More .

How to remove Tab2Play

How to remove Tab2Play

How to uninstall Tab2Play

How to remove Tab2Play Ads, How to remove Ads by Tab2Play, How to remove “by Tab2Play” adware, How to remove Tab2Play virus

What is Tab2Play:

Threat Classification: PUP/adware

Tab2Play has been classified as a dangerous adware and a PUP by the majority of the security researchers on the Net. After running some tests our security team warned us that the Ads by Tab2Play are generated by a malicious browser extension and although the Tab2Play pretends to provides many useful features, our security experts concluded that the Tab2Play is just the next ad-supported malicious program, usually distributed using various dangerous software bundles, that could cause a lot of confusion among the regular users, because they are installed in silent or stealth mode away from the eyes of the regular users! The victims don’t know how did they’ve got the Tab2Play on their computer!? These questionable software bundles could distribute even more dangerous stuff like modified installers, bad toolbars, rogue anti-virus products or even crypto viruses. You should be very careful, because Tab2Play uses the stealth or silent installation mode to get on your computer and to start annoying you by showing lots of intrusive ads on almost all web pages you visit or to collects various private browsing data as well as other sensitive information. If you have Tab2Play installed on your computer, it is very likely that it fills your screen with unwanted & very annoying ads, banners pop-up windows or other 3rd party advertisements. Tab2Play has been classified as a PUP by the majority of the security experts on the Internet, mainly because of the distribution method it uses – “software bundling” and because of its suspicious behavior on the user’s computer. Tab2Play uses a malicious browser extension, that is capable of injecting ads into almost every webpage you visit, which could lead to modifying the web page design and content – especially regarding the search results by the major web search engines! Once installed, the Tab2Play quickly modifies windows registry database and browser’s settings, making the recovery even harder. If you start getting various web ads, claiming that they are – “By Tab2Play”“Ads by Tab2Play”, “Tab2Play Ads”, “Powered by Tab2Play”, “Brought by Tab2Play” or “Brought to you by Tab2Play” – you should consider your computer infected. Tab2Play appears to work with all the well-known browsers like Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome.

Generally, users that have it installed on their systems might experience various pop-up or pop-under ads, coupon boxes, banners, search suggestion windows, link advertisements or other commercials, displayed on popular web pages. The victim should consider, that the search results are compromised as well, most likely overloaded with spam and other third-party advertising.

Tab2Play is usually bundled with some other free ad-supported software products and is being installed by default, when the user accepts the EULA, while performing an express/recommended installation of that software bundle. The possible distribution of Tab2Play varies but is not limited to – installing third-party toolbars, free software products, video editing software, codecs, downloading e-mail attachments, clicking on ads or banners etc..

The main purpose of Tab2Play is to generate as much traffic as possible to certain domains, which could easily be monetized via one of the many online marketing platforms. Please note, that the creators of such or similar adware or malware would collect information that might be used to track your browsing habits, however often they collect much more then your web search history. Tab2Play may use cookies and other relevant techniques, that might be used to collect private data like account information, username, passwords, financial information including credit card and bank account numbers etc. That’s why this malware infection should not be left unattended, and needs to be terminated immediately, as it is a serious threat to your private data and online security.

!!! Please note, that these infections could potentially bring up other malware to your computer and even cause a loss of data. Please do not underestimate such threats.

According to one industry source, American investors' waning appetite for new IPOs by Chinese internet companies is one of the main factors which led to choose to list in Hong Kong, another being the high cost involved in listing the United States. The source added: " is different from many of the companies which IPO in the United States. is already profitable, making it a suitable choice for a Hong Kong IPO."

Underwriting 5173's listing is French bank BNP Paribas, which began a road show for the company earlier this month.

China Jan-Feb industrial output growth slows

Published: Mar 11, 2015 2:56 a.m. ET

BEIJING--China's economy showed fresh signs of weakness in the first two months of the year, as industrial output and asset investment grew at a slower pace, official data showed Wednesday.

Value-added industrial output rose 6.8% from a year earlier in the January-February period, slowing from a 7.9% increase in December, the National Bureau of Statistics said.

Industrial production, a proxy for economic growth, undershot the median 7.6% growth forecast from a Wall Street Journal survey of 14 economists.

The government releases combined figures for January and February to reduce distortions from the timing of the Lunar New Year, which can fall in either month.

Industrial production climbed 0.45% in February from January. The statistics bureau didn't release the month-over-month growth figure for January.

Fixed-asset investment in non-rural areas of China rose 13.9% during the January-February period, after gaining 15.7% in 2014. The increase in the closely watched indicator of construction activity undershot economists' median forecast of a 15.1% gain.

January-February retail sales grew 10.7%, slowing from a 11.9% increase in December, and missing economists' forecasts of a 11.5% rise.

Roche bid for Genentech stokes biotech stocks

Published: July 21, 2008 10:22 a.m. ET

ValBrickates Kennedy

BOSTON (MarketWatch) -- Biotech stocks got a nice boost early Monday from news that Swiss drugmaker Roche plans to buy the remaining 44% of Genentech Inc. that it doesn't already own for $43.7 billion.

The Amex Pharmaceutical Index $DRG was down marginally at 306.0 while the Amex Biotechnology Index $BTK of which Genentech DNA, -1.96% is a component, jumped 3% to 819.5.

Genentech shares soared 14% to $93.52, notably above Roche's bid price of $89 a share, indicating investors may be anticipating a counter-offer.

Early Monday, Roche announced its bid, stating the merger would stream-line drug discovery and increase productivity. The deal would also give Roche total control over Genentech's marketed products, which include such oncology drugs as Avastin, Herceptin and Rituxan.

Genentech is a leading marketer of biologic oncology drugs. Roche sells Genentech's products overseas, while the biotech group markets them in the U.S. See full story.

Shares of partners Merck & Co. MRK, -1.31% and Schering-Plough Corp. SGP, +5.86% fell on news that they were delaying release of their respective quarterly financial reports, which were expected early Monday morning, until after market close.

The companies attributed the postponement to the expected release of new data on their controversial cholesterol drug Vytorin at 1:00 p.m. ET. See full story.

Sales of Vytorin have been in the dumps since this winter, when a medical study showed the drug wasn't any more effective in battling heart disease than generic versions of Merck's cholesterol drug Zocor. Vytorin is a combination of Zocor, which lost patent protection in 2006, and a newer drug called Zetia.

Biogen Idec BIIB, -4.33% shares were up 5% at $67.95. The biotech, which is slated to roll out its earnings report early Tuesday, co-markets Genentech's blockbuster oncology drug Rituxan.

Also climbing was Biogen partner Elan Corp. ELN, +0.00% up 2% at $35.25. Elan and Biogen market the multiple sclerosis therapy Tysabri.
