1 Doctor Answered
Hello, Thanks for your query on Lybrate "As" per your clinical history is concerned please do a clinical examination by your Doctor and for confirmation, you can do one Ultrasound exam. For back pain you can take [NAPRA-S tab] every 8 hours along with [pan-40]once a day. Do follow lifestyle modifications like this- 1)Drink water throughout the day. If you live in a hot, dry climate or you exercise frequently, you may need to drink even more water to produce enough urine. 2)Try to eat fewer oxalate-rich foods.These include rhubarb, beets, okra, spinach, Swiss chard, sweet potatoes, nuts, tea, chocolate and soy products. 3)Choose a diet low in salt and animal protein. Reduce the amount of salt you eat and choose nonanimal protein sources, such as legumes. Consider using a salt substitute. 4)Continue eating calcium-rich foods, but use caution with calcium supplements. Hope that helps

The town’s oldest cinema could soon be transformed into a bustling hub for food and drink.

Plans submitted to Cheshire East would see Macclesfield’s Picturedrome, which first opened its doors more than 100 years ago, the transformed into a trendy food hall.

Market Operations, responsible for renovating Mackie Mayor, in Manchester, and Altrincham Market House, hope to give the former cinema a bright future.

Under the ambitious proposals it would house eight independent kitchens and bars, as well as a communal food hall for 180 people, as well as a projector screen will be set up at the back of the hall to show films.

Outside, the car park at the junction with Catherine Street would be turned into an eating area, with three more kitchens and room for 80 more diners.

These would be linked by a ‘two-way’ craft beer and wine bar.

According to the Design and Access statement the revamped Picturedrome will bring 60 full time and 80 part-time jobs.

Nick Johnson, head of Market Operations told the Express he thinks the scheme could be a catalyst for the town.

He said: “It’s a fantastic town, it’s a ‘proper’ place, it has real sense of community and it’s undervalued and under performing at the moment.

“We see the potential of our proposals for The Picturedrome to not only deliver a great new place attractive to a wide range of people but it will also be a catalyst for transformational change in the way our projects have been in Altrincham and on the edge of the Northern Quarter.

“It also happens to be in a fabulous building that we will sensitively restore and return once again back into public use.

“With our emphasis on independents and regional produce, we think it’s a win-win all round. Based on the figures at Altrincham and Mackie Mayor, this proposal for the reopening of The Picturedrome will include approximately 60 full time and 80 part-time jobs and begin a regeneration process of Macclesfield’s fringes which will subsequently generate further positions across the area.”

The Picturedrome on Chestergate is the oldest cinema in the town and first opened its doors on October 21, 1911.

Since then it has been used as a bingo hall and most recently an office block.

Mike Rance, chair of community business group, Make it Macclesfield, told the Express he is fully behind the plans.

He said: “It is fantastic, that is my initial response. I have often though that the Picturedrome deserved a higher profile in the town. The idea of restoring it to its former glory is the exactly the sort of development the town needs in order to stimulate the night time economy.

“It is exactly in line with what we feel needs to be done.”

Two Things I Dread...

Today I posted my horoscope and asked my friends what I dread most. I do not dread death, or even a harsh sickness like Cancer. And, I really do not fear becoming a liberal.

Here is my greatest fear: Someday I may do something stupid (really, really stupid).

Several times in my life I did stupid things on a motorcycle. First, I tried to cross the California Street cable car line on a rainy night. This was so stupid that I was able to tell my passenger to get ready to fall, right before we crashed. The second time I was riding towards Point Reyes Station, when the road changed from asphalt to gravel. Again, I had time to tell my passenger to hold on - and safely avoided the spill. I also got pulled over in Oregon for speeding. I honestly answered the officer that I did not know how fast I was going because the speedometer stopped at 85. On that same trip I fell asleep while riding - waking up right on the rear end of a truck. I pulled over and slept for several hours before resuming the ride.

My second fear is that someone will not take a moment to tell me that I'm about to do something stupid. And, at a more subtle level, that they are simple watching, allowing me to make a bad choice. A two minute conversation could cure the problem, but they will not take the time.

Two Simple Examples

In college I was having trouble with football blocking schemes (right-guard). Since I did not play in high school, I was behind on much of the terminology, schemes, and audibles. My coach was not really interested in taking the extra time to work with me. In his eyes I was the long snapper and second string guard. Of course, things change and I moved into a starting role against Oregon State. It ended badly for me and our QB.

More recently, I have been working in a challenging environment - with high turn-over, imprecise deliverables, and a certain lack of cooperation across teams. During my mid-year check-in I was soundly humbled.

Six months later, after following remediation guidance, it turns out that my management has never validated the work that they requested. Questions about a problem that has been reported for 7 straight weeks, and which was escalated to him (among others) proved that my weekly reports and escalation emails did not merit his attention. Three missed one-on-one meetings isn't lending to the solution. (He provided plenty of excuses... and a crystal clear statement about his priorities).

A two minute conversation, to allow course correction, adjustment, realignment is apparently too much effort.

In college I let down my team. I could have injured my girlfriends - truly things to dread. Those problems were instantaneous, and over. Now, I have to make career decisions that will impact my family, and I feel like those that can provide guidance are not helping, that they are perfectly willing to let me do something stupid.

It's my plan to be really open and honest with my manager - about my role, my lack of faith, my disappointment and my wish to move on.

Yes, I'm stupid.

Favorite Beauty Repurchases

We all have those stand-by, tried and true beauty products. And we all have those that we will always repurchase. I always find it so interesting to see what people like and what their favorites are, because you never know, you may discover a hidden gem that will become your newfound favorite.

Nirvana Black by Elizabeth and James: Not the first time I've talked about this one, and I'm sure it won't be the last! This is my third repurchase of this; a mini roller ball, the pure performance oil with a dropper and now this bottle!
CO Bigelow's Rose Salve from Bath and Body Works: This stuff is incredible! It is my favorite this time of year, it's perfect for dry skin patches, chapped lips and cuticles; it has a light pigment and light rose scent. I've lost count of how many I've owned over the years, it's always in my overnight bag since high school.
ColourPop Ultra Matte Lip in Midi: My go-to favorite lip color. Always in my purse and is the perfect lip color when I don't know what to wear. This was my go-to for our Disney World trip two September's ago and also my wedding lip color. It's just perfect for me!
New York Color's Liquid Liner in Black: I really think this is my biggest hidden gem, the diamond in the rough if you will. Definitely on the lower price bracket, however it is the BEST I've ever tried. Low end, higher end drugstore and even high end liners, nothing beats it. The tube itself lasts ages, although it's getting harder and harder to find, sadly. So when I do find it, I snag a few! The color is an incredibly true black, the brush is fantastic and the lasting power is amazing. It isn't waterproof, however it does hold up through tears and naps. And to me, that's pretty darn perfect! My go-to for years and years!
Benefit's Dandelion blush: My holy Grail blush. I've gone back and forth with liking blush over the years, using it and taking a break, til I discovered this one a few years back. I fell in love first with Coralista and when I went to repurchase that, I discovered this. For someone with very fair skin with a cool undertone, it's hard to find the perfect pink-but-not-too-pink blush. Alas! I have found THE perfect one! It's got a little illuminating quality to it and it's perfect!
NYX's Jumbo Pencil in Milk: This is my third pencil in the same shade and they perfect! For years I tried the white pencils for water line to get that doe eyed look, and being discouraged because of how hard the pencil was. Til this. This one is so soft, blendable and is just plain perfect! It's great for your waterline to open your eyes as well as highlight under your brow.
Cover Girl Lash Blast mascara: I have been using this since this came out my freshman year of high school. The wand is very chunky and also the plastic teeth style. Exactly what I personally look for in a wand. Never have I ever used any that I love for a no make-up kind of look, as well as a dramatic eye look. It just never fails, and I have never found one that tops it!

Thanks for reading!!

Puma Sports Eyewear

History of Puma Sports Eyewear

PUMA has relentlessly pushed sport and culture forward by creating fast products for the world’s fastest athletes such as the famous Usian Bolt

For more than 70 years, Puma has drawn strength and credibility from the heritage in sports.

In a long history driven by speed and performance: The brothers Rudolf and Adolf Dassler founded the company “Gebrüder Dassler Schuhfabrik” in their hometown Herzogenaurach, Germany.

Unbeknownst to them, they place the founding stone of the world capital of sports shoes.

1919- 1924 – The brothers started their factory in their parent’s home and moved into its proper facility.

1928 – Dassler spikes were worn by the majority of German athletes in the Olympic Summer Games in Amsterdam.

1936 – Jesse Owens wins four gold medals at the Olympic Games in Berlin wearing Dassler spikes.

Soon more medals are won by athletes wearing Dassler shoes, 7 gold and 5 bronze medals. The first records are smashed as well: 2 World and 5 Olympic records. It’s their international breakthrough.

What you need to know about Puma?

PUMA is one of the world’s leading Sports Brands, designing, developing, selling and marketing footwear, apparel and accessories such as bags and glasses.

PUMA has successfully established a history of making fast product designs for the fastest lighting athletes on the planet such as Usian Bolt for over 65 years in running.

PUMA offers performance and sport-inspired lifestyle products in categories such as Football, Running, Training and Fitness, Golf, and Motorsports.

It engages in exciting collaborations with renowned design brands such as Alexander McQueen and Mihara Yasuhiro to bring innovative and fast designs to the sports world.

In line with PUMA’s new brand positioning as a sports brand, the range will also include eyewear items specifically designed for Running and playing Golf.

Each product segment is characterized by style, form and combines technology and colour, which makes the products distinctive and functional for specific needs and situations.

‘Allergic to cat fur’: Man admits to slashing seven cats in Singapore, jailed 12 weeks

SINGAPORE, July 15 — A 37-year-old man, diagnosed with some mental health issues, has admitted to slashing seven cats in the Ang Mo Kio area with a penknife because he felt he was allergic to cat fur and wanted to have some fun.

Leow Wei Liang, a Singaporean, was sentenced to 12 weeks in jail after pleading guilty to three animal cruelty charges at the State Courts. Four other similar charges were taken into consideration during sentencing.

The court heard that Leow had been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder and an underlying antisocial personality.

Leow resorted to “cutting cats” as he believed they were “stray animals and not human”, according to court documents, which also cited his belief he was “allergic to cat fur”.

So in April, he bought a penknife that was easy to carry and conceal, and went about swinging his arm to slash at the bodies of the cats whenever he got close enough to them to do so.

Leow was arrested on June 8, but not before the slashings drew public ire when as many as 10 cats were found injured with deep linear cuts in an area bounded by Ang Mo Kio Avenue 8 and Ang Mo Kio Avenue 1.

These sightings had moved animal advocates to place some cats from the neighbourhood in boarding facilities in Lim Chu Kang and at The Animal Lodge, and sparked efforts to track down the culprit through flyer distribution and the putting up of posters.

The seven cats Leow admitted to having cut were named by the community: Miki, Dino, Boyboy, Kopi, Milo, Mummy and Daughter. Three other cats which TODAY reported in May to be injured as well were not accounted for in the court proceedings.

Not a ‘typical animal abuser’, his lawyer argues

Before Leow was sentenced today, the court considered his mental conditions and how they were linked to the acts of cruelty.

National Parks Board prosecutor Packer Mohammad noted that the Institute of Mental Health’s (IMH) had found that Leow’s acts were not borne out of any difficulty in comprehending the consequences of his actions.

Rather, he was motivated by a simple desire to “wantonly inflict pain and suffering on animals for his own perverse entertainment”.

He also noted that IMH psychiatrist Steven Phang had found that Leow’s offences were primarily driven by an antisocial personality, and not his autism spectrum disorder, and that he was not of an unsound mind at the time of the offences.

The prosecutor urged the court to impose a jail term of 12 to 16 weeks to reflect the seriousness of his offences.

However, defence lawyer Diana Ngiam, who represented Leow pro bono, sought a four-week jail term instead, stating that some weight had to be given to his mental background.

She noted that IMH’s report had also stated that a person with autism spectrum disorder can have difficulty understanding the social consequences of his actions and could be unaware of the harm inflicted on others.

As such, Leow could be unaware of the full extent of the pain and suffering caused to the cat, she said, adding that this differentiates him from a “typical animal abuser”.

“(Leow) lacked the ability to empathise While I am fully cognizant that (Dr Phang) said that autism spectrum disorder was not the primary contributory link to the accused’s actions, it is still consistent to say that (the disorder) did affect (him),” she said.

Ms Ngiam added that Leow is remorseful of his actions. “This is an unfortunate and regrettable aberration in terms of his behaviour, and he promises the court that such behaviour will not be repeated after his release from prison,” she told the court.

In sentencing him, District Judge May Mesenas said that while she recognised that autism spectrum disorder somewhat played a role, she had to take into account the number of cats that Leow had harmed, as well as the fact that he had gone around looking for cats to harm.

There is a need for deterrence in this case, and balance needs to be struck, she said.

She then arranged for a community court conference to address what Leow can do upon his release to keep his mental condition in check and not reoffend.

For each charge of causing unnecessary pain and suffering to an animal, Leow could have been jailed for up to one-and-a-half years or fined up to S$15,000, or be punished with both. — TODAY

This cast concludes our discussion on a framework for looking at where you need to develop internal relationships.

In our Build A Network cast, we told you that more relationships were better and to develop relationships with people indiscriminately. That guidance still stands. But whether you're new in your organization, or you recognize that you don't have the depth of relationships you need, the whole organization is a big target. This cast will help you narrow down where you want to direct your energies.

Equally, this cast will help you assess how good your network is. We're going to give you a framework to put your current relationships in. Once you've done that, the gaps will be clear - and so will the relationships you need to develop.

This Cast Answers These Questions

  • Why should I develop internal relationships?
  • Who should I look to develop relationships with?
  • How do I know I have a good network?

3 Social Media Technology Trends Are Changing the Lives of Elderly

Times have changed drastically with the addition of technology into our everyday lives. The world we live in today is not the same as it was just 20 years ago. Not only are older generations accepting these changes, but they are making social media technology a part of their day to day activities. It has been reported that approximately 67% of seniors are active web users. This is a major increase from just a few years earlier.

Naturally, these numbers will only rise as the massive generation of baby boomers grow older. There will be both positive and negative effects on the brain.

Surprising Effects: Social Media Technology

The internet allows communication between friends and family no matter how great the distance between them is. Many seniors tend to be lonely, the ability to talk to their loved ones virtually any time is one sure way to combat some of that loneliness. This also makes it possible to reunite long lost family members, something that has seemed almost unthinkable until recent times. In years past, people would pass on without having the chance to spend time with those far away.

Another The web is a plethora of information, which elders can use to search for anything from historical facts to tracing their ancestry.  Social media platforms like Facebook and Pinterest are signing up more and more seniors every day. Learning features like live chat, video calls and sharing pictures definitely get the brain working. We want to keep their minds functioning as long as possible.

E-health is a generic term for health care categories supported by technology and the interweb. It covers anything from connecting users with health care providers online and discussing similar issues with other patients in live chat rooms to doing internet research on medical topics. This is a perfect way for ailing seniors to get comfort and advice from people who understand their situation.

Studies that have focused on the impact of technology on older generations show an increase in confidence among participants. This is wonderful news considering how common it is to start having self-doubt in your abilities at this age. This newfound confidence helps to combat depression and loss of interest. This social media statistics will help you create the strategy.

The Downside to Older Adults Using the Internet

As with pretty much anything in this world, there are some negatives to seniors using the internet. Distraction can be a major issue. This can be true for web users of all ages but is extremely troublesome for seniors. Technology can become so distracting that it affects the brain’s thinking capability and memory. Of course, mental stimulation is a good thing, but there is a point when it can become stressful. It is important to find a good balance between a healthy amount and a technology overload.

The positive effect is older adults can use the internet for research, resulting in increased brain activity. Another downside is seniors don’t necessarily have the training and understanding of trusted online sources. They are the number one age group to be duped by unscrupulous scammers. Criminals know this and prey on their vulnerability, exploiting them for money, financial account info, and expensive property. This is a real problem. We should make it a point to educate our elderly loved ones on trusted sites.

As mentioned earlier, many older individuals also turn to the internet to research minor ailments and health conditions. This is another example of when visiting a reliable site is very important. An untrusted website could lead to a possible misdiagnosis causing panic to the reader. Trusted sites that are based on medical evidence regarding treatments and conditions are more likely to end with .org, .gov, or .edu.

Profitable Market

Companies are discovering that making technology easier for senior citizens to use can be a very profitable market. Intimidation is the main thing that holds seniors back from jumping onto the digital bandwagon. They feel smart devices are just too complex to learn. They also seem to migrate towards gadgets with bigger screens, such as tablets, laptops and desktop computers.

This has triggered the invention of devices like the grandPad, an innovative tablet with its own secure, curated operating system. With this tablet, users simply tap a photo to make a video call or touch a button to send a voice email. Their loved ones download the app on their preferred device to communicate with them. The grandPad was designed without the need for passwords or updates, making it accessible to users at all times.

This has not gone unnoticed among cell phone designers. Models are trickling onto the market that features larger fonts and buttons. Alcatel and itsJitterbug was one of the first to tap into this market several years back and was very successful. Now, the company has released the Jitterbug Touch, a smartphone designed for seniors. Its big screen and large easy-to-read icons make it just as popular as its predecessor. We are also starting to see more applications that are geared toward the elderly with easier to see and operate formats. Digital heart monitors, medication reminders, magnifying glasses and mind games are all available in app form.

Computer courses are becoming more readily available to help individuals learn computer basics and simple devices. Local senior centers, libraries, and the AARP commonly offer these types of classes at little or no cost.

Here to Stay

Whether we like it or not, technology is here to stay. We live in a world that is ever-changing, so to keep up, people of all ages are learning to adapt. This can be especially trying for our older generations. The more we see things geared towards them, the more acclimated they become to learning new things. Wearable medical alerts, mobile devices, and computers have changed the way people are spending their golden years. One can only imagine what the future holds for aging adults.

By Dan McCarty, News of Delaware County

With the help of running backs Anthony Rosanio (two touchdowns), Austin DiFabio (two touchdowns) and Ross Binder (60 yards), the Marple Newtown Tigers’ football team was able to move the ball well and ultimately register a 33-21 victory over the Penncrest Lions in the season finale Friday night at home.

“We did a nice job of moving the football,” said Marple Newtown head coach Ray Gionta. “The offensive line was doing its job. Binder had a good run. Rosanio broke a long run.”

Marple Newtown saw some definite improvement during the latter part of the season. The Tigers went 4-2 in the last six games of the season to finish the year with a final record of 5-6. This happened after they got off to a 1-4 start.

“That was a pretty good comeback after a not so teriffic start,” said Gionta. “We had good leadership from seniors.”

Penncrest ends the season with a record of 3-8.

“We were inconsistent on both sides of the ball,” said Penncrest head coach Rick Stroup. “There were turnovers. That didn’t help.”

Jeremy Gonzales kicked off for Penncrest. Binder went from the 5 yard line to the 27 but Rosanio only made it as far as the Marple Newtown 30 before being tackled by Tyler Butz. An incomplete pass to Joe Vegso brought Corey Power in to punt. LaVaughn Frame made a catch at the Penncrest 47. Justin Batipps got down to the Marple Newtown 30 but A.J. Cunningham recovered a fumble at the 39.

Rosanio made it in to Penncrest territory to the 47 but there was a loss of five yards. Rosanio got to the Lions’ 43 yard line. DiFabio got to the 41 and then to the 36 and the Tigers used a time out with 4:19 in the first quarter. Rosanio got down to the 14. Vegso picked up six yards and Binder got a touchdown with 2:57 in the period. Nick Pezzotti’s extra point was not good and Marple Newtown settled for a 6-0 lead.

The Tigers got the ball back just before the end of the opening quarter and Rosanio went from the 15 yard line to the 21. DiFabio made it to the 35 and Rosanio gained 10 yards before Binder had a 40 yard gain. Binder got all the way down to the 1 yard line and there was a loss of a yard before Rosanio got the touchdown with 5:48 to play in the half. Pezzotti got the extra point this time and that resulted in a 13-0 halftime score.

Penncrest was a whole new team in the second half. Batipps made it to Marple Newtown’s 47 yard line and got tackled by Vegso at the 39. Mike White tackled Dan Young when he reached the 19. Batipps picked up eight yards before he got the touchdown to put the Lions on the board. Gonzales kicked the extra point. The Tigers did not get very far on their next drive but ended up taking over on downs. Rosanio scored his second touchdown with 2:13 in the third quarter followed by Pezzotti’s extra point. Binder intercepted the ball at the Marple Newtown 20 and DiFabio gained eight yards before the end of the quarter.

The game was far from over for either team. The Lions quickly got the ball back and made it to their 39 on the return. Quarterback Shane Donnelly completed a pass to Kevin Trusty at the 44 but the Tigers took over on downs. DiFabio went from the 40 to the 38 before he got his first touchdown of the game with 5:36 on the clock.

Diego Zubieta-Soto ran 36 yards on the return down to the Marple Newtown 31. Donnelly got down to the 8 and John George picked up five more yards before Batipps got another touchdown with 3:03 in regulation. Gonzales was good for another extra point.

The 26-14 score did not last very long. White recovered the ball at midfield and DiFabio went for his second touchdown on the very next play with 2:50 remaining. Pezzotti’s extra point was good.

 It was not yet over for Penncrest. Joe Volciak reached the 50 on the return and Donnelly gained 11 yards before being tackled by Power. After he made it to the 28 his pass to Trusty at the 1 was incomplete. Clay Anderson caught the ball at the 19. Donnelly got to the 16 before Trusty scored the touchdown with 42.9 to go. Gonzales got the extra point yet again and that led to the final score, 33-21.

“We just kept working, changing things defensively and playing,” said Stroup. “We just didn’t make the plays we needed to on both sides of the ball.”

While the Lions were moving much faster in the fourth quarter, the Marple Newtown offensive and defensive linemen kept doing what they had to.

“The offensive line was good,” said Gionta. “We had tackles on defense.”

Technology symbolization: political mechanism of local e-government adoption and implementation

Haibo Tan, Xuejiao Zhao, Nan Zhang

Corresponding authors: Xuejiao Zhao, e-mail: zhaoxj@cau.edu.cn

International Review of Administrative Sciences, Published online

Abstract: Why did some local e-government projects start off with a bang but end with a whimper? Using the case study of an online administrative approval system in Jiangmen, China, this study explores the political mechanism behind the adoption and implementation of local e-government projects. We propose a framework for analyzing the adoption and implementation of e-government projects that encompasses three aspects: environment (political institutions); process (perceptions of information technology, power relations, and strategic interaction); and performance. The political environment shapes people’s perceptions of information technology and provides motivations and constraints for relevant stakeholders. Stakeholders choose different strategies and actions based on their positions in the power structure, which finally influences the performance of the project. In this study, due to local government leaders’ motivation to seek political achievement and subordinate agencies’ strategic responses in the Chinese political system, the online system finally turned into a symbolic tool that did very little to improve government performance.

Keywords: e-government; performance; political institutions; power relations; technology symbolization

5 Tips For Better SME Supply Chain Management

A strong, dependable supply chain is the backbone of your small or medium-sized enterprise, making it important to devote just as much attention to the supply side of your business as the sales side.

From automation to personal relationships, a variety of factors go into creating a supply chain that’s capable of driving your business to new heights. For many businesses, many aspects of supply chain management can be optimised, improved and built upon for better results.

Below, we’ve listed five tips to help you more effectively manage your SME’s supply chain, from eliminating delays and setbacks caused by human error to maximising the potential of each and every participant in the process.

Remember that relationships drive a strong supply chain

One of the most common SME supply chain management mistakes is forgetting that, at the end of the day, a huge aspect of building a strong supply chain is developing and maintaining great relationships with your suppliers.

From paying suppliers on time to reaching out to sales representatives and other staff, many of the small, everyday processes involved in maintaining the human side of your supply chain can play an important role in strengthening this side of your business.

Buying internationally? Understand the effects of foreign exchange rates

Are your SME’s suppliers located in other countries? If you buy goods or services from suppliers located in other countries, it’s important that you’re aware of the potential impact exchange rates could have on your business.

Exchange rates can fluctuate, often by a significant amount. In the post-Brexit world, where swift falls or gains in currency valuations aren’t uncommon, it’s important to stay on top of the risks a swing in foreign exchange values could have on your supply chain.

Make transparent, consistent and helpful communication a priority

Even small and mid-sized enterprises can have complicated supply chains that involve several layers of suppliers, contractors and subcontractors. As a result, it’s important to make focused, clear communication a priority as your supply chain grows more complex.

From remote conferences to phone calls, emails and other forms of communication, keeping in touch with people on every layer of your supply chain can give your business a major edge, as well as the ability to respond faster to disruptive events and opportunities.

Improve efficiency by reducing paperwork and human error

Many supply chain setbacks are the end result of human error, from late payments to data entry mistakes, lost documents and more. Because of this, one of the easiest ways to optimise your SME’s supply chain is by reducing the risk of human error affecting communications.

EDI platforms like XEDI, which allow customers to connect directly with their suppliers to make and process orders, are designed to help you automate large aspects of your order process to speed up the supply chain management process and limit room for human error.

Capitalise on your suppliers’ unique strengths and advantages

All too often, businesses view their suppliers as commodities — sources of a specific product or service — rather than as differentiated offerings. As a result, unique advantages that a supplier might offer go ignored rather than used to create better results.

One way to potentially improve your SME supply chain is by reaching out to suppliers to learn more about their specific resources and skill sets. You might be surprised to discover that your existing suppliers have additional skills and resources to take your project to the next level.

THIS IS SERIOUS! ! ! See What The Northern Elders Forum Is Planning For The 2023 Election

The 2023 general election will obviously continue to generate debate from different angles until it is concluded. As expected, the presidential seat is the center of attraction, with different groups coming up with their preferred candidate and giving reasons why they should be supported. Among the list of possible candidates are Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Yemi Osinbajo, Yahaya Bello and Atiku Abubakar.

The fact that President Muhammadu Buhari is a northerner, there is a call for a southern President, meaning a northern candidate shouldn’ t be supported for whatever reason. While some buy into the idea of rotating power, some others are interested in focusing on the candidate and not the region he comes from.

The Northern Elders Forum Disagrees With Presidency Rotation

As a result of the words circulating, asking that the presidency be shifted to the southern part of the country come 2023, the Northern Elders Forum (NEF) has voiced their disagreement with the suggestion. Stating that the North cannot be sidelined in 2023, they have the right to contest. The group explained that there is nothing wrong with having another northern president, and so, no one should tell the north to step aside.

According to SAHARA REPORTERS, the Northern Elders’ Forum said the heavens will not fall if a northerner succeeds President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023.

During the inaugural edition of the Maitama Sule Leadership Lecture Series held over the weekend, Hakeem Baba- Ahmed said, ” We will surprise them in 2023 because we will vote for who we want, including the northerners, and nothing will happen. If we choose to vote for a northerner, the heavens will not fall. We will choose who we want in this country. ”

According to NEF, the Northerners would rather live in poverty than endure being disrespected by Southerners, which, according to NEF, is what they are doing by saying the North shouldn’ t produce the next President. In his words, he said, ” A northerner is a respectable Nigerian. We can live with our poverty, but we can not live with a sense of disrespect and anybody who toys with our respect. We will fight them to the end. ”

Northerners’ Inherited Leadership— NEF

While Hakeem Baba- Ahmed was delivering a keynote address at the lecture series organised by the students’ wing of Coalition of Northern Groups (CNG) at the Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, he said Northern Nigeria inherited leadership, insinuating that the British colonial administrators handed over the leadership of the country to the North in 1960. And for this reason, the north will not succumb to intimidation.

Sahara Reporters reported that Baba- Ahmed charged the students to be proud of who they are, saying they are not second- class citizens and should not accept being treated as such in their own country.

An excerpt of his address read, ” We will lead Nigeria the way we have led Nigeria before, whether we are President or Vice President, we will lead Nigeria. We have the majority of the votes, and democracy says, ” Vote for whom you want. ”

Northerners Vow To Rebuild The North In 2023

While speaking on plans by some politicians to bribe northerners in 2023, Baba- Ahmed said, ” Why should we accept second class position when we know we can buy form and contest for first class and we will win? Why does anybody need to threaten us and intimidate us? We will get that power, but be humble because power comes from God. We inherited leadership. Being honest is not being stupid.

” There are Nigerians who believe that because the economy of the North is crumbling, we are running away from insecurity, we are politically vulnerable, they think they can buy us for 2023, but they are making a mistake. ”

He also said, ” We are ready for this; we will consider every economic adversity, challenge, we will fix the Northern economy and we are the only one who can fix this Northern economy. For that reason, we are not for sale. We are in the process of rebuilding the North and we will rebuild the North from 2023. ”

With this stand by the Northern Elders Forum (NEF), there are indications that the 2023 election will be more of a power tussle, seeing that the north is not ready to let go of power, which they claim belongs to them. Neither is the south willing to give space for another nothern leader, since the current President is a northerner who is currently spending his second tenure as the President.

What do you think about this? Is the North truly meant to be in charge of power? Should the presidency be rotated or given to whoever surfaces? Your views and thoughts will be appreciated.

Happy New Year from Maison McMurtry!

On January 8th we greeted our newest family member, grandchild #13, Ender Chaddock, son of Andrew and Annie Chaddock. Ender arrived large and in charge after 9 years of hoping and a long labor @ 10 lbs. 5 oz. (poor Momma). Everyone is happy and healing; he had better be a good son. I am 9 for 9 on bio-grandbabies being born by C-section. Ewww.

If you have the pleasure of welcoming a new arrival, I found these videos to be helpful:

How to Calm a Crying Baby in 5 Seconds

The holidays were multi-tiered at McMurtry Manor.

 We were completing a flooring project, welcoming Tim home after his LDS mission which saw him assigned to serve the people of Alabama for 2 years and happily greeting a dozen or so family and friends that came to celebrate with us. Plus it was Christmas. And we needed a trip to California to enjoy the company of the family members who couldn’t make it to Utah, also 2 years ago we promised Tim, when he returned, a trip to the beach he loves.

Now you may have guessed that I love to overdo it at the holidays. So here we are in January and I am promising temperance in my approach to 2016. Like my diet, we’ll see how long that lasts.

Welcome home Tim and good luck in your freshman year at the University of Utah, of course part of his heart is still in Alabama – ROLL TIDE!!!

Tim wearing the hat his brother Bill gave him for Christmas.
BTW It was his first day as a freshman at the University of Utah, how ironic.

The red decorations were originally purposed to celebrate Tim’s attending the University of Utah but were conveniently still in place to congratulate the Crimson Tide on their national championship.

IGN UK strong in face of MySpace cuts

The axe has come down at News Corp’s struggling MySpace social network – but it looks like sister division IGN will gain more independence as a result.

Rupert Murdoch’s media empire today confirmed that it is cutting MySpace back to a skeleton crew in the US, with most of its International staff made redundant.

News Corp bought MySpace in July 2005 for US$580 million when the site was best known as a platform for new music talents.

Since then, the media giant has found difficulty in turning the social site into a business, with regular rounds of layoffs, senior exec changes and new strategies. A year ago, the firm was trying to reboot it as a games platform, but was met with a lukewarm reception at GDC given the boom on rival site Facebook.

Divisionally, MySpace was part of News Corp’s ‘Other’ group of online centric businesses – sister to Fox Mobile and IGN. Here in the UK, there was some shared resource between MySpace and IGN’s UK commercial teams.

But with MySpace effectively winding down, that frees up resource for IGN here in the UK at least – and suggests the news affords it some independence.

In fact, a spokesperson at IGN UK told MCV that it now plans to double the amount of dedicated commercial staff it has on board.

"IGN Entertainment UK confirms moves to assume full control of sales operations and to double dedicated commercial staff," said a spokesperson.

"As the market-leader in entertainment and men’s lifestyle media online, IGN Entertainment properties, including IGN.com and AskMen.com reach 3.8m readers a month across the UK, with the network reporting 23% growth in the fourth quarter of 2010 [according to comScore].

"IGN’s media brands focus on delivering engaging entertainment content to their targeted audience of male consumers with recent commercial deals including campaigns for Apple, Energizer and Paco Rabanne."

Slender: The Arrival video game will be a commercial release

If you thought free to download PC game Slender: The Eight Pages was scary, then the next chapter in the Slenderman’s video game career could just finish you off.

Slender: The Arrival was revealed last week, but a few more detail about the game have been dug up.

It’s being jointly developed by Toronto’s Blue Isle Studios The Eight pages creator Mark Hadley’s Parsec Productions. It will feature more levels, greatly improved visuals and a fleshed out storyline.

We recently teamed up with Mark of Slender fame to work on a brand new version of the game,” Blue Isle stated.

Slender: The Arrival is the official re-imagining of the original release that will engage players with the same terrifying gameplay, while adding a complete gaming experience that the fans have been asking for.

We have been working closely with Mark over the past few weeks and we are really excited to deliver the best Slender game possible. The final version will include improved visuals, more content, more levels, and an engaging storyline to add to the Slender setting. The commercial release is planned to launch on PC in the coming months. We’ll provide more details on the game in the near future.”

Furthermore, unlike The Eight Pages, this release looks unlikely to be free and is being described as a commercial” release.

Lionhead built an adventure around the project, new images suggest

In Pictures: The lost world of Milo

Develop has been handed storyboard images of the cancelled Milo game, offering a glimpse into Lionhead’s scale of ambition for the project.

The images, which Develop has verified as genuine, show concepts both old and new – including a “secret forest” area that was being constructed for the ambitious Kinect game.

In September, news spread that Project Milo had been axed as a game project. It was rumoured, though never verified, that the cancellation resulted in the loss of around 12 contractor jobs at Lionhead’s Guildford base.

Microsoft’s public line on the matter is: “Development work specific to Project Milo is complete. The team at Lionhead created an inspiring piece of technology that will be leveraged in future projects.”

Microsoft has yet to reveal what projects will use the ‘Milo tech’.

Phil Spencer, VP of Microsoft Game Studios, said in June the Milo tech was “showing up in other places,” suggesting that fellow UK studio Frontier was using the tech for its Kinectimals project.

David Braben, co-founder of the Kinectimals studio, went on to say his game “is built using Frontier’s own technology”.

Following the cancellation of Milo, a debate ensued on whether the project was ever intended to be a game released at retail.

Months before news of the project’s closure, Microsoft chief of staff Aaron Greenberg revealed in a TV interview that the game “wasn’t planned for the market”.

However, over the last few months Develop has heard from numerous studio sources that they were under the impression that Milo would be a “game”.

Greenberg had retracted his statement on his verified Twitter account, which read: “Project Milo absolutely continues in development at Lionhead Studios, it is just not a product we plan to bring to market this holiday.”

Peter Molyneux himself spoke of Milo as something people would eventually get to play.

“What I showed in Milo [last year] was just a tech demo. I think everyone asked: ‘That was pretty fascinating, but what does it all mean?’ It’s only when you see it in its entirety and play it that you realise it’s robust enough for people to play on their own.”

Journalists are asked to not ask questions on Project Milo in order to interview Molyneux.

Below, images of the project’s secret forest show how an element of adventure would have been applied to the game.

Lionhead released Fable III in October last year, which went on to top the UK charts and win widespread acclaim from critics.

Molyneux told Develop last year that, before Christmas, the studio would take a week together to decide on their vision going forwards.

”And at the end of the week we’re all going to come together look at people’s ideas, and that’s going to form the foundations of what happens next at Lionhead.”

The fate of Milo, however, is unknown.

[Develop has since been asked to clarify: Lionhead’s artist who created these images should not be assumed as the source of this article.]

Why MoviePass Matters

On a recent trip to Costco, I picked up some discounted Regal Theater tickets. While in line, I saw a friend who said, “We don’t get those anymore. We have MoviePass.”

If you are looking for a theatrical discount, indeed MoviePass beats just about everything — except for seeing a movie for free. For $9.95 a month ($6.95 a month for a year commitment), if you see one movie in roughly 30 days you are already getting that Costco discount. If you see more, the discount doubles, triples, quadruples, etc. (depending on how many movies in a month you have the time and desire to see).

Still, why should the home entertainment industry care?

Well, there are only 24 hours in a day. The time consumers spend going to the movies for little to no cost is time they won’t spend renting or buying and watching a disc or digital version of a film.

Also, each time MoviePass consumers go to a film during a month, they may perceive that content as that much less valuable. If theatrical movies are worth $9.95 or $6.95 or even much less than that — less than 50 cents apiece if you go 30 times a month — why should they pay $20 for a disc, much less EST?

I’ve watched this business long enough to remember the inception of Redbox and Netflix, both of which MoviePass CEO Mitch Lowe had a hand in getting off the ground. At the time, the industry didn’t think much of those upstarts. I vividly remember a Blockbuster spokesperson telling me kiosks were a niche business. Now Blockbuster is history, and kiosk company Redbox is the biggest physical disc rental company in the United States.

Why does MoviePass matter? Because it is disrupting the value of and way consumers perceive entertainment. That matters to the home entertainment business, as well as to our theatrical brethren.

So don’t take too much solace in the financial woes of MoviePass. I remember a long line of executives no longer in the business that wrote off Lowe’s previous ventures.

One thought on “Why MoviePass Matters”

  1. Thank you for a reasonable perspective on MoviePass. The negative publicity lately is unwarranted click-bait.

AsthmaShare on Pinterest
It’s not just those with severe asthma who are at risk of death; even individuals with mild symptoms, who do not routinely take medication, die every day from asthma.

There is, in fact, no such thing as one disease called asthma. Instead, asthma is an umbrella term for inflammation and swelling of the airways, which can result in a range of symptoms.

According to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, 7.6 percent of adults and 8.4 percent of children in the U.S. have asthma. And in 2015, 3,615 people in the country died from it.

Worryingly, asthma kills indiscriminately. Anyone with asthma is at risk, and individuals with mild or moderate asthma – including those with few symptoms, who do not routinely take medication – die at roughly the same rate as those who are under specialist care due to their symptoms.

In a Clinical Commission report published in The Lancet, an international panel of experts criticizes the way that doctors view and treat asthma, saying that little progress has been made in the past 20 years.

So, why is asthma medicine stuck in the last century? Find out why experts think that it’s time to redefine the term asthma, and why patients and doctors need to take an active part to make this a reality.

Experiencing asthma is a very personal journey; no two individuals have exactly the same triggers or symptoms, and one person’s asthma attack might be very different from one day to the next.

Ezra Kirk – from Bath, in the United Kingdom – is heavily asthmatic. He told Medical News Today that his asthma attacks give him “[a] tight chest and [tight] shoulders, pressure everywhere above the diaphragm, including the face and head, a constant grasping for breath, and an inability to breath deeply.”

Hannah Bastick – from Brighton, also in the U.K. – has a 2-year-old daughter who has been to hospital several times since birth with severe wheezing. “An attack is very scary as a parent,” she told MNT. “I couldn’t leave her to sleep by herself when it’s obvious how little oxygen is getting into her lungs.”

Her daughter’s symptoms are triggered by severe colds, and she has been officially diagnosed with virally induced wheeze. “When she gets a bad cold, she becomes permanently wheezy within 24 hours,” Ms. Bastick explained.

“It becomes increasingly severe until we don’t feel safe enough for her to sleep unwatched, so we take her to the hospital. By this stage, her breathing is very labored and she ‘grunts’ with every [exhalation].”

The number of new asthma cases has been steadily rising since the 1980s. The condition is the third-ranking reason for children to be admitted to hospital, and it kills 10 U.S. individuals every single day.

Between 1980 and 2014, 157,066 people in the U.S. died as a result of asthma, according to a report published on September 26, 2017, in the journal JAMA.

Although the overall asthma death rate declined during this time period – from 2.2 to 1.2 deaths per 100,000 people – there was significant regional variation. For example, the highest death rates were found along the Southern half of the Mississippi River, in Georgia, and in South Carolina.

Globally, the asthma death rate has stagnated since 2006, reported a study using data from the World Health Organization (WHO) earlier this month in The Lancet. It remained at 0.19 deaths per 100,000 people during 2012.

A review of asthma deaths occurring between February 2012 and January 2013 conducted by the U.K. Royal College of Physicians found that 46 percent of these were potentially preventable.

Martyn R. Partridge – who is a professor of respiratory medicine at Imperial College London in the U.K. – wrote in the foreword to the report that “some results should unequivocally lead to a shake-up, more training and monitoring, and an end to the complacency that has arisen regarding this common condition.”

This call to arms to challenge the common perceptions about asthma is echoed by Ian D. Pavord, a professor of respiratory medicine at the University of Oxford in the U.K. He is the lead author of the Commission’s report on asthma, published earlier this month in The Lancet.

In their 51-page document, Prof. Pavord and his fellow Commissioners strongly criticize the lack of progress that the field of asthma has seen in the past 20 years.

One of the issues, as highlighted in the report, is that asthma is often diagnosed by looking at an individual’s symptoms and carrying out a simple lung function test. But the Commissioners say that this is not specific enough.

They say, “[T]he notion that a rheumatologist diagnosing arthritis or a hematologist diagnosing anemia would generically treat patients without determining the specific cause and type of disease in the 21st century is absurd.”

To achieve this, better biomarkers will be needed to help both patients and their doctors to move away from the diagnosis of “asthma” and clearly define which type of “chronic airway disease” they are dealing with.

In a radical step, the report goes beyond demanding better diagnosis and treatment by challenging the perception that asthma should be viewed as a life-long condition and treated as a chronic disease.

The focus should be on asthma prevention and asthma cure, the authors say.

There are a number of factors known to put an individual at risk for developing certain forms of asthma, and asthma caused by allergies is the most common form of the condition.

Immunotherapy treatment is increasingly being used to reduce allergic symptoms and there is some evidence that children who receive immunotherapy for their allergies are less likely to develop asthma.

That being said, a systematic review published in the journal Clinical and Translational Allergy concluded that while immunotherapy treatments for allergy have “the potential to achieve reductions in [asthma] symptoms,” there is currently no clear evidence that lung function is improved long-term.

More research is clearly needed to shed light on the underlying causes that lead to each individual asthma diagnosis and to develop early interventions.

Doctors and patients must work together if we are going to challenge our understanding of asthma and change the focus from long-term treatment to prevention and cure.

But with many individuals not taking their asthma medication as advised by their doctor, what is going to empower those with asthma to take an active role in changing the status quo?

According to Prof. Pavord, “One consequence of inhalers being used so liberally is that the diagnosis of asthma has become trivialized.” Better patient education is sorely needed.

In an accompanying comment to the Commissioner’s report in The Lancet, Dr. Carlos A. Camargo, a professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School in Boston, MA, explains the problem.

“In my clinical experience in the U.S.A.,” he writes, “many patients receiving emergency asthma treatment will, on direct questioning, deny that they are having an ‘asthma attack’ because they have felt ill for days.”

Fewer than 50 percent of children and only between 30 and 70 percent of adults stick to their asthma treatment plan, according to a 2015 systematic review.

The U.S. National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute – which is part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) – recommend that those with asthma take an active role and work with their doctor to manage their condition. This includes children from the age of 10 years or younger.

With their report, the Commissioners hope to bring about the radical change needed to bring asthma medicine into the 21st century.

Prof. Pavord, who has asthma himself, told The Lancet in an interview that the report is “meant to be a challenging document that asks difficult questions. It will perhaps be a catalyst for change. That’s what we hope.”

What the future will bring is unclear at this point. But getting patients onboard in a radical shake-up of how we think about asthma and manage the condition is going to be key.

Dr. Sabine Kleinert, who is senior executive editor at The Lancet, seconds that notion, saying that “patients must be involved in this rethinking.”

Every patient given the diagnosis of asthma should ask their doctor: which asthma do I have? Or perhaps even better, which chronic airways disease do I have?”
