User experience

I have been teaching and implementing the Last Planner® System on projects for over 10 years. In my opinion, the Villego® simulation does the best job of clearly demonstrating the value of collaborative planning and project execution using the principles of the Last Planner® System. I now use this simulation in my lean construction/LPS boot camps to ‘get the attention’ of the group as to what is possible by putting a project on the LPS.

John Draper, P.E.

Associate Principal, Lean Project Consulting, Inc.

Thanks again, I ran the simulation and I have never seen adults having so much fun!

Kyle Woody, CCM, CHC

Gardner Builders

People liked the Villego® simulation a lot. They were enthusiastic about Villego® as a hands-on learning tool for learning the practice of lean construction and pull planning.
Thank you for developing this remarkable simulation. I find it far more useful than any other simulation of pull planning

Tom Robinson, Ph. D.

JWA Consulting

I personally like the Villego® simulation used as a part of John Draper’s/Lean Project Consultant’s boot camp format because Villego® helps general foreman quickly understand the Last Planner® System (LPS) and gets them all engaged in using the full Last Planner® System on our project. I think everyone understands the concepts for production planning sooner and begin using new behaviors and processes sooner than when we start up the Last Planner® System without running the Villego® simulation

Miss South Africa crowned 2019 Miss Universe

South Africa's Zozibini Tunzi is Miss Universe 2019.

The 26-year-old beat Miss Puerto Rico Madison Anderson and Miss Mexico Sofia Aragon at a glittery ceremony in Atlanta's Tyler Perry Studios.

"I grew up in a world where women who look like me with my kind of skin or my kind of hair are not considered to be beautiful, I think that it is time that this stops today. I want children to look at me and see my face, then see their faces reflected in mine," Zozibini Tunzi said in her closing speech.

In fact, the closing statement is a new addition to this year’s competition, taking the place of the “final look” segment that had been used for multiple years.

In videos posted on Twitter, Tunzi is seen celebrating with other contestants.

The all-girls Beaulieu Convent School on Jersey is forging ever-closer ties with communities through an inspiring combination of Catholic formation and mission. The Beaulieu Institute of Theological Literacy has been established on-site as a response to Bishop Philip Egan’s call to place schools at the heart of the New Evangelisation.

Parents, family and friends at the St Helier school are being given the chance to study at the Institute for the Catholic Certificate in Religious Studies. The Institute has been set up as a hub for resourcing and exploration, combining theological and philosophical expertise with wider educational research and practice in the context of schools, colleges and parishes.

Through the Institute, Beaulieu Convent School hopes to be both a greenhouse to nurture faith and a huge, open, expansive field where faith can grow and flourish and equip people for their role in the home, the parish, the school and the public square.

“We look to engage people on the island and further afield with guest lectures during the year from figures of international standing in the fields of education, philosophy, ethics, theology and other associated disciplines.”

In other initiatives, parents at the school are regularly invited to retreats and days/mornings/afternoons of reflection offered by the Chaplain and Director of Catholic Life, Further Education and Skills. A close liaison with Caritas Jersey helps Beaulieu Convent School to identify those in need in the community including the poor, homeless and elderly.

A “Giving Tree” project ensures items such as tinned food goods are collected and handed over to the local St Vincent de Paul Society team for distribution to those in need. Through the Mustard Seed Appeal the students put together shoe boxes containing basic essentials which are driven to Romania.

Money is raised for CAFOD especially during their Fast Days in October and throughout Lent with soup and bread lunches on Fridays during these periods. “Our students are always reminded that they go out into the world to make a difference with the education they have received at Beaulieu,” added Dr Rowan. “Liturgically this is symbolised by the giving of individual candles and the anointing for mission during the Year 13 Leavers’ Mass, as they take the flame of God’s love, enkindled and nurtured by Beaulieu, out into a world badly in need of Christ."

#MakeoverMonday: Is it wrong for same-sex adults to have sexual relations?

No comments
It's #PrideMonth, which makes for perfect timing for this week's makeover. Eva has chosen a simple line chart that allows the user to answer a simple question: "Is it wrong for same-sex adults to have sexual relations?"

What works well?
  • The title, question response, and breakdown are all organized together. They also look quite crisp; that's because they render differently because they aren't part of the Tableau rendering.
  • The scale goes to 100%.
  • The horizontal gridlines help guide the eye.
  • Showing the year header every five years
  • Using a line chart to show trends over time
  • Allowing the user to highlight a line by clicking on the legend
  • Overall, it's an easy chart to understand.

What could be improved?
  • The share, print, export, and table buttons are in the way. Move them to the footer.
  • The colors are too similar.
  • Remove the dots on the lines for each year.
  • Why is the title green?
  • Legend text is cut off for some selections

What I did
I like the overall design of the original, so I decided to clean it up and change the main metric to answer the question differently.

  1. I removed all of the dots from the lines.
  2. I allow the user to highlight an age via a parameter action.
  3. I changed the metric on the change from % of population to the change vs. 1973. For me, this is a more meaningful way to show the change in opinions.
  4. I moved the title closer to the chart.
  5. I used Benton Sans as the font (Tableau fonts get boring sometimes).

This ended up being pretty much what I built last week, and I'm ok with that. If a chart works, stick with it.

Even in a sport known to attract misfits, Lacey Baker stands out. The 25-year-old pro’s distinctive skateboarding style and personal style have earned her cult status and, now, a coveted relationship with Nike, which today named her the newest member of its famed skate team. As a queer woman who has joined the brand’s great skate roster, she also represents a benchmark in the 60-year history of the sport—one that, despite its nonconformist beginnings, hasn’t always been so kind to outsiders.

Baker is many things to many people, and no two descriptions quite match. Ask around: She’s a skateboarder, guitarist, designer, or barista. She lives in Los Angeles or she lives in New York. She’s queer, straight, male, female, both, and/or neither. Skaters praise her recently viral Thrasher video, which shows off her perfect balance, technical wherewithal, and complete concentration. The fashion-conscious note her unique look: a relaxed yet specific brand of minimalism. Image searches reveal a young woman with long hair, pink hair, green hair, orange hair, or no hair at all. There are a lot of cat pictures on her 35,000-followers-strong Instagram, but also some dogs. Et cetera.

Who is this enigma that has all of the skate world talking? We sat down with the recent Los Angeles transplant to discuss her sport, style, sewing, and what it’s like to be recognized on the subway.

You’ve joined a team with some of the best skateboarders in history. Why Nike?After I won the SLS Super Crown World Championship in L.A. last fall, I started exploring possible shoe brands. Nike SB is ultimately where I felt most at home. That team is tight.

Now you’ll be traveling and filming and demo-ing with skaters who aren’t just famous but iconic, like P-Rod and Eric Koston and Theotis Beasley. How are you feeling?Incredibly honored! I knew many of the riders already, and we share a lot of core values, though we all have very different skate styles. I’m also excited to make an impact by expanding the female roster. It’s a step in the right direction—to build out an entire team of female and male skaters versus having just one token girl.

Photographed by Sam Nixon

Skateboarding famously draws outsiders, yet at the same time, skaters can be exclusive or hostile. The ’70s pro Jay Adams—immortalized in Dogtown and Z-Boys—was convicted for instigating an anti-gay hate crime, for instance. Have you encountered any bias entering into the big leagues?No. Just the opposite. It’s empowering to join the Nike team. It’s in the midst of its #Equality campaign. There are women in top positions in management and marketing and design. My input is valued and put into practice. It’s good.

You’ve been skating almost all of your 25 years. How have you seen the sport’s view of women change over the years?[Sighs] Women have been skating since the beginning of skateboarding, and there’s always been less recognition, though that applies everywhere. It’s a long road. If there’s a comparison, it’s like how skating was for guys in the ’80s-slash-’90s. I’m not mad at it. Statistically speaking, people are starting to respect and appreciate our side of things. We’re going to be in the Olympics, so now there’s value to women as skateboarders. The progress is coming from that, and the fact that there are a lot more female skaters.

Growing up, were there skaters you admired?Yes. Alexis Sablone—her part in [iconic skate video] PJ Ladd’s Wonderful Horrible Life. I really love Jeff Rowley and Arto Saari. And, obviously, Elissa Steamer. She’s the pioneer of women in skateboarding.

What influences your style?It’s a mix. A lot of it comes from queer culture, from obviously skating, and from fashion. But a lot of fashion brands are informed by skating. So I think it’s a back and forth in that world a little bit. I don’t want to sound super-nerdy about it, but I do spend a lot of time thinking about different outfits and the shapes of clothes.

Pretty much every piece of clothing I have is altered in one way or another. That’s the look I want: very basic, but not straight out of the package. So if a sponsor sends me clothes, I’ll alter them. Usually I just cut the bottoms off shirts, because I don’t like when shirts hug my hips. Pants, I taper, crop, or hem. That sort of specific stuff. It’s not about other people seeing me. It’s just the way I want to look. It’s the same way with shoes.

Photographed by Sam Nixon

Skaters often wear thickly protective sneakers, and you do not. You wear slip-ons—pretty much canvas slippers with a rubber sole.I love skating in slip-ons because I can feel the board the most and feel like I’m in the most control. It’s a little riskier because there’s not as much padding, so I have to skate accordingly, to a degree. Plus, I like the silhouette of it all; it just looks really cool. So it’s trying to find that same balance, what you like and what’s functional.

There’s a recurring theme in your pant-sock-sneaker combinations of white on white on white, or black on black on black. Is this intentional?That’s my preference. There’s a huge trend going on with colorful or tie-dyed or whatever patterned socks, and I’m not super into that. I don’t want my socks to be the focal point of the outfit.

Back to the theme of queer culture and style: How does this play into your look?I think what I mean is that, personally, I feel very androgynous. I’m on the more masculine side, which I’ve always been completely comfortable with. I always dressed in boys’ clothes and never really had a desire to wear anything feminine. At all. It’s just my preference. Like my hair. I always wanted short hair and eventually just did it.

You used to have really long, flat, very yellow hair, and now it’s gone.It was just a coming-of-age thing. I was doing what makes me feel good, what makes me feel comfortable, that represents who I am.

You’re now a Nike ambassador and your video part has gone somewhat viral. Has life changed?Yeah. Pretty frequently people say hi on the train, even if I don’t have my skateboard, which used to never happen. It’s kinda surreal.

“She's my muse," said Lasry, before locating two pairs of his glasses for a selfie with Ms. Lezark. "I'm obsessed with her. She's cool. She's elegant. She's perfect."

The sunglasses, Sylvy and Fanny—names taken from La Dolce Vita, which inspires much of Mr. Lasry’s work—have a little Karl in them as well. For patterns, Mr. Lasry went deep into Fendi’s archive, studying more than 2,500 images, back to 1966. “From those, I developed the patterns,” he said. “One of which I called Kinetic, the other Cubism. The idea was to bring art to sunglasses.”

Fanny and Sylvy could be viewed upstairs, where a mobile sculpture presented the glasses on floating trays of neon orange and yellow—an Alexander Calder by way of the Memphis movement. Downstairs, models Kel Markey, Devon Windsor, Andreja Pejic, and Tali Lennox awaited a performance from R&B duo Lion Babe. “He looks like a poor man's Adam Driver," someone said of Lucas Goodman, the group’s too-handsome, dark-haired DJ. “A rich man’s Adam Driver,” his friend corrected him. The commenters went quiet as Jillian Hervey—grooving in a tiny black one-piece, covered by a friendly monster of a Fendi coat—belted out the group’s latest single, “Wonder Woman,” (produced by Pharrell) with Jonathan Simkhai, Gabriel Day Lewis, Britt Maren, Hanneli Mustaparta, and Laura Love looking on.

By the DJ booth, Ms. Lezark was huddling with Mr. Lasry and her Misshapes, while Giovanna Battaglia—wearing a backless leather Fendi top “from last year,” she said proudly—chatted with her new SoHo neighbors, Peter Brant Jr. and Harry Brant, who was sporting a choker he’d made from the drawstring of a pair of Balmain sweatpants. Mr. Lasry grabbed Ms. Battaglia for some final photos. The moment recalled the reason he’d made the glasses. “They’re inspired by the Roman way of life,” he said. “Those strong, daring, Italian women. Now those woman could be in any city in the world: New York City, Paris, anywhere.”

The Stowe Youth Hockey Under-10 tier 3 team played neighboring Harwood Jan. 11 in Waterbury for the second matchup of the season. The first time these teams played in November, Harwood won 5 to 2.

Stowe’s Cam Bradley scored a goal early in the first period on an assist from Reece King. Travis Roy had a big defensive play when he stopped a strong shot from a Harwood player with his leg.

In the second period, Stowe’s powerful offensive player Scan Forrest had a few breakaways and many strong shots on net, but none went in. Gunnar Mink made smart defensive plays that stymied the Harwood offense.

Jack Boes continued to use the boards to keep the puck out of Stowe's defensive zone.

In the third period, Stowe fans saw a very focused team make a big comeback. Ian Wilkesman, King and Jaxson Ruane all scored unassisted in the first few minutes of the period.

Next, Bradley scored his second goal to tie the game up. With only 50 seconds left in the game, Daniel Donza skated quickly to the Harwood net and scored on a powerful shot, with an assist to King.

Jack Peterson, the Stowe goalie, made a big saves throughout the game that allowed Stowe to take home the win. The final score was Stowe 6, Harwood 5.

— Chessie Roy

Stowe Under-10 Tier 4 team

The Stowe Under-10 Tier 4 Raiders played their best game of the year on Sunday morning, beating Essex 3-2.

Stowe had only nine skaters to Essex’s 15 and struggled mightily through the first two periods, trailing 2-0. In the third period, Stowe showed great perseverance, battling back with three goals to win 3-2.

Stowe was backstopped with a fantastic performance by Landon Kneale in goal, highlighted by a diving save late in the second period to keep the score at 2-0.

Braxton Orr had the first and last goals for Stowe; Ryan Hughes continued his hot hand with the tying goal in between.

The win was a true team effort, as everyone worked hard to make the comeback possible. On defense, Spencer Hughes and Stewart Lemnah held the line and played strong all game. Up front, Jack Cleary, Reilly Lewton, Conner Mayo, Noah Vandenberg and Finny Kilby kept the pressure on Essex.

The Vulkam Process

We have developed a two-step process in which the tailored alloy is first manufactured before being molded to obtain the final components.

Raw material alloying

The semi-continuous casting of the raw alloy is possible using an in-house developed process that respects the critical conditions necessary for the production of amorphous metals. In this machine, we melt and mix pure metals from selected suppliers before casting the material. We carry out the whole process under a controlled atmosphere and finally obtain ultra clean alloy billets of calibrated shape and mass. These billets of material have all the characteristics necessary for the subsequent production of an amorphous part.

Molding of parts

We are able to offer you a complete molding solution because we control the entire production chain. The mold design is carried out in-house, in collaboration with our customers. A numerical simulation tool developed by VULKAM and specific to amorphous metals validates the mold filling and optimizes the design.
Our expertise in high purity atmospheres, high temperatures and complex flows allows us to obtain an unequalled quality of the final parts. The molded parts undergo extremely rapid cooling to obtain the amorphous structure and a fine control of the mold filling parameters must therefore be ensured.
VULKAM’s patented molding machine has the capacity for mass production of unique amorphous metal parts. The finishing of the parts, especially to remove the injection channels, requires a final step that can be carried out in-house.

Alone We Can Do So Little, Together We Can Do So Much – Helen Keller : Vyapaarjagat
Alone We Can Do So Little, Together We Can Do So Much – Helen Keller : Vyapaarjagat

Turn on the news any day of the week and you will see countless examples of people competing with – rather than cooperating with – one another. Does the news reflect the people of the world in their true light? It can feel like if someone wins, it must mean that someone else has to lose. Are we equipped to truly cooperate? Or, are we only destined to compete? How can we break the win-lose cycle and learn to do it differently?

Aristotle defined man to be a social animal by nature. He cannot survive without working with others toward a common aim. Research shows that most people, at their core, want to work together. And yet, we’ve also seen that people haven’t always learned “HOW” to cooperate. Majority of small and medium scale corporate houses focus more on their competitors, their strategies, and activities rather than paying attention towards their own business. They would want to see how their competitors are failing. They are interested only in their opponent’s failure to succeed, rather than succeeding themselves.

Similar thing happens in corporate culture too. Often senior leaders look for opportunities to pull down each other. During a meeting, they would be in search of such a topic, through which they will argue unnecessarily with illogical reasoning, just to prove that they are better than others. But there are some healthy-spirited leaders, who give space to others, appreciate others in public for their better performances and exemplify the spirit of real leadership; they believe in Sam Snead’s quote – “Forget your opponents; always play against Par”. A true leader is the one who puts aside his ego, understands and accommodates other people’s opinions and over time, gets a prominent place in the spectrum.

During the past five years, one of the research analyst, Mehul, examined collaborative working practices and what we call as cooperative mindset in various leading companies. He found that while almost all managers and the companies they work for recognize teamwork’s critical value and the importance of cultivating a cooperative mindset, many actually encourage behaviours that undermine cooperation.

In one of the companies (manufacturing high-voltage cable wires), he met Peter, the Vice President- Marketing.  Peter spoke in very positive terms about cooperation and directed Mehul’s attention to this section of his organization’s value statement: “Teamwork is crucial to the performance of this company.” Peter was confident that Mehul would find the company abounded with cooperation. Yet it did not. Senior team members, including Peter, were aggressive, even openly hostile towards one another.

Mehul shared that despite the corporate rhetoric of cooperation and teamwork, unwritten rules encouraged people to outshine everyone around them. Rather than sharing ideas and know-how, people hoarded knowledge and worked with others as little as possible. Within weeks of joining the company, new hires learned to talk about cooperation while acting competitively. Yes, there was a gap between the rhetoric of creative cooperation and the reality of unproductive competition.

How can one close this gap?

If you want to be benefited in the long run, you need to adopt the spirit of cooperation and collaboration. A true and successful entrepreneur is the one who first thinks of benefits to others. The customer will bring benefits to you if you earn for the customer first. So develop a spirit of cooperation. If there will be mutual cooperation or collaboration, the business will get the new glow. One needs to maintain long-term relationships to be successful in the long run. Short term & selfish relationships cannot fetch the long-term success. “Let’s go together” is the attitude which will enable all players to survive and sustain in the long run.

A win-win attitude should be encouraged in organizations. Employees who cooperate with others and strive for mutual accomplishment should be encouraged because a win-win attitude leads to a favourable result for all involved parties and subsequently ensures that none of the employees hold grudges against another.

Cooperation is important to me. I have witnessed the synergy of one plus one equaling three- when we band together and work cooperatively, we are smarter and stronger. Author Ralph Charell said, “It is through cooperation, rather than conflict, that your greatest successes will be derived”.

Author Ralph Charell said, “It is through cooperation, rather than conflict, that your greatest successes will be derived.”

So, let’s cooperate with each other and move together, raising each other’s bars…

    No, you should not take amoxicillin if you are allergic to penicillin.

Original electronic
Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.

Cuba Set To Ease Travel Restrictions

24 October 2012 | News

Cuba Set To Ease Travel Restrictions

Cuba is an authoritarian state and has many restrictions regarding US travel into this beautiful country. Their citizens have many restrictions to exit the country for travel as well. However, there may be some signs of progression into easier travel requirements for its’ citizens.

CNN recently reported via Cuba’s official news site Granma, that Cuba will make begin to lighten restrictions and make it easier for its’ citizens to travel abroad. Effective January 14, its’ citizens will only have to present a valid passport and entry visa for their destination. There are still some limitations for the average traveler. A statement in the Granma said, “The ordinary passport will be issued to the Cuban citizens who meet the requirements of the Migration Law.” President Castro stated he would implement this change and this appears a great step for the country.

Cubans travelers have had it difficult to travel up to this point. Cubans are currently required to pay $150 for an exit visa plus the resident they were visiting had to write a letter of invitation. There are other fees as well. Even with presenting all necessary documents and fees, there is still a possibly the government could deny them an exit visa. With low monthly wages, this made it a very challenging issue to travel.

The US Department of State informs us of restrictions to Cuba. It states that travel by US citizens and permanent residents to Cuba is restricted by US law and regulations. Even with receiving a license to participate in certain activities, there is restricted while US citizens are there. US travelers that do engage in island activities are subject to surveillance by Cuba. US Diplomats are not even allow to travel freely outside the Cuban capital. These are just a few barriers that communicate the difficulty to travel there. This ease of travel restrictions by its’ citizens could be an avenue to initiate easier travel regulations by US citizens into Cuba.

Whether Cuba or another country, we all have a need to travel. Of course, there can be no traveling with a visa or passport. Sometimes we need a passport fast. If you need expedited passport services, Washington Express Visas can help. Washington Express Visas has specialized in expedited visa, passport, and authentication services for 30 years.

Red light runner causes Vancouver, WA 3-car accident

The Columbian reports that a La Center Man, Andrew J. Gravlee, 22, has been cited for running a red light and causing a Vancouver car accident on State Route 500 and Northbound 137th in Vancouver, Washington around 11:45am on Sunday.

According to the report, Gravlee was headed eastbound on Highway 500 when he struck a Toyota driven by Michael V. McChesney, 29, of Vancouver who was headed southbound on NE 137th Avenue.

The impact of the collision caused Gravlee’s truck to spin around and he hit a Saturn driven by Melissa Bernhardt, 25, of Vancouver.

Gravlee and Bernhardt were both taken to Southwest Washington Hospital where they were treated for injuries and released.

Gravlee was also cited for driving with no insurance and driving on a suspended license. Running a red light is covered by Washington state vehicle code RCW 46.61.050 “Obedience to and required traffic control devices.”

BMP Sub-micron Pads x 80 pieces

The Micro Pad lifespan is dependent on the quality of water coming into your home from municiple supply, the age and condition of your water system. Many homes have poor quality water coming into the home especially in some older areas due to the type of infrastructure, pipes etc, older hot water services can begin to rust internally toward the end of their serviceable life.

It is recommended to inspect your pre-filter condition weekly, if it is becoming dirty or discoloured by rust etc, it is recommended to change them in order for your Bio Mineral Pot filter to work properly.

The Waters Co Pre-filter Pads are an important part of your Bio Mineral Pot system. Micro Pads remove dirt, rust, copper, sediment and bacteria from the water prior to carbon/resin stages. It is important to remove these heavier contaminants before this stage in order for the carbon resin stages to reach their maximum potential life otherwise these filetrs will not last as long.

Principal's Welcome

  • Welcome to Wauwatosa East High School!

    As the principal, I am excited to share about our school with you.

    Wauwatosa East has a tradition of providing a quality, comprehensive education that dates back over 100 years. East High School was recognized by U.S. News and World Report as one of the top high schools in Wisconsin in a 2016 study and Wauwatosa was listed as one of the top suburbs for education in America.

    Once again, in 2017, East was awarded a silver medal by U.S. News and World Report and is ranked 10th in the State of Wisconsin and 590th in the United States. Additionally, the Washington Post listed East High School on its annual “America’s Most Challenging High Schools” list in 2017.

    Our learning community is strengthened by the unique contributions of our students, faculty, support staff, and parents. Our student performance continues to exceed state averages on every measure of academic achievement. We strive to improve the quality of our education and to add meaningful learning experiences for all students.

    Our award-winning faculty includes nationally board-certified teachers, Kohl Fellowship winners, and numerous leaders of and speakers for local, state, and national organizations. The PTA and
    various booster clubs offer parents, community members, and alumni additional opportunities to become involved in school events and activities.

Top trends in mobile development to look out for in 2018

With a series of major enhancements and innovations in the technology, the mobile app development will now consist of fascinating new designs and functionalities which will make is super easy to access the products and services of your choice with minimum number of clicks. Let us have a look at some of the hottest trends in mobile development that are expected to become a rage in 2018.

Augmented Reality

One of the most thrilling and fascinating new technologies in the world of mobile app development is the incorporation of augmented reality as a means of providing the consumers with a more holistic and delightful experience. Although until a few years back, the augmented reality was a mere concept limited to sci-fi movies and TV shows, the introduction of gaming apps such as Pokemon Go and Sky Siege and other utility apps like myNav and iOnRoad are fine examples of what this technology could provide its users. 2018 is the year that will probably witness a lot of other businesses and enterprises on the likes of eCommerce, healthcare, lifestyle and entertainment jumping the bandwagon and integrating the Augmented Reality technology in their in-house apps to enhance the user experience and provide a boost to their revenue.

App Security

Another crucial aspect of mobile app development that will drive the focus of the app developers is the provision of higher security measures to make their apps more secure across the various channels and devices. The app developers will incorporate more comprehensive security protocols to ensure that user transactions involving personal and sensitive information such as bank details, NFC payments and social security numbers are designed for utmost privacy and are foolproof against hacking. The fact that professional and illegal hackers are now exposed to more advanced and improved technologies will be the major concern for mobile app developers who will be required to deal with cryptographic issues and provide a greater level of security to their apps.

Cloud based development

Experts believe that cloud based development of mobile apps is the new trend in the market that is going to rule the roost in 2018. There are several benefits of this technology that will make it a quintessential part of all mobile app development henceforth. For example, cloud support will enable the app developers to deal with memory and bandwidth issues by maintaining the small size of their apps. Furthermore, cloud compatibility will allow users to sync their mobile apps and retain their functionalities across a variety of smart devices and platforms. The cross functionality and compatibility feature of cloud technology is also being touted as a boost for the popularity and demand of wearable devices such as the Smart watch for Apple users.

Location based technologies

By adopting the location based technologies such as Geo Fencing and iBeacon, most of the retail business owners are being able to provide the right information at the right place to the customers on the basis of their current location. The technology not only aims at providing a wholesome experience to the consumers but also ensures a steady growth and popularity of a business enterprise. The location based technology works on the idea that most of the public places nowadays such as restaurants, hospitals, malls and hotels offer free Wi-Fi to their customers that automatically kick starts an in-door mapping system which helps the business owners in tracking the exact location of potential customers.

Focus on user experience

Although, it has been a major driving factor in the growth and popularity of a business for years, user experience will witness an unprecedented improvement in 2018. In the rudimentary stages of the Smartphone technology, the consumers constantly faced a lot of variation in the experience of accessing mobile apps across multiple smart devices. In order to eliminate the issue, most developers will be now concentrating on maintaining a consistency of both the design and functionality of a particular app across various devices and even screen sizes. It goes without saying that the cross platform app development will probably gain massive momentum and become a major aspect of app design. The developers will need to use analytics data to keep a track of consumer behaviour and optimize retention by eliminating the chances of app abandonment.

Internet of things

Despite the fact that it is still in the infancy of its development, Internet of things is likely to become a Holy Grail for the propulsion of mobile app development to unprecedented levels. When a user integrates an app across various platforms and channels, he is essentially contributing to its establishment in the market.  The staggering rate with which the people are connecting to each other via the mobility technology implies that all the major platforms such as Android and iOS will be getting more involved in IoT, to enhance their customer engagement multiple times over. To cite an example, the introduction of a smart car would mean integration of traffic signals with navigation based mobile apps that will aid in a safe maneuver of the vehicle across the city.

To sum it up in a nutshell, the mobile app development industry is going to witness untapped levels of innovation which will aim to provide a rich user experience and propel the business towards success.

Opioid deaths in SC increase for 4th year in a row

State - Regional

COLUMBIA, SC (WSPA)- Opioid related deaths in South Carolina have once again increased for another year in a row from this time in 2017 to last year.

From 2017 to 2018 opioid overdose deaths increased from 748 to 816, an increase that has lawmakers and the state agencies questioning what’s next.

Sara Goldsby, the director of the Department of Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Services, says the agency expected to see an increase based on past data and trends. “We expected there was going to be an increase and we were right.”

Representative Chris Wooten serves on the House Opioid Prevention Study Committee. The Midlands lawmaker reacted to the recently released data concerning the epidemic in the state.

“The largest population dying is between the ages 35-44. Those are our parents of elementary and middle school children.”

From 2014 to 2018 opioid related deaths increased from 508 to 816.

In response to the growing crisis, lawmakers and state agencies have implemented several programs and introduced new programs that have increased the number of people in treatment.

“People are recovering. The interventions are there. The Naloxone administrations are higher. We know we’re keeping people alive,” added Goldsby.

Both lawmakers and state agencies like DAODAS say the data shows there is still work to do in the fight against the drug.

Goldsby explained, “We need to look at the counties that have the highest rates and target more resources into those counties.”

“We still haven’t gotten to the underlying issues one being doctors prescribing opioids too often,” added Representative Wooten.

Out of the three major metro areas (Charleston, Columbia and Greenville) Greenville saw an increase in opioid related deaths by almost 80%. In 2017 there were 73 opioid related deaths in Greenville, in 2018 there were 131.

Richland County actually saw a decrease in opioid involved deaths. In Charleston there was a slight increase from 94 deaths in 2017 to 100 last year.

Lumira DX, Mindwave Ventures and System C & Graphnet Care Alliance are backing a major event in Bristol this week, bringing together NHS and local authority professionals, academics and technology companies to explore collaboration opportunities and shape the digital future of our health service.

The Digital Art of the Possible event is set to take place at Ashton Gate Stadium on Wednesday 4 October and is being organised by the West of England Academic Health Science Network (AHSN).

Digital Art of the Possible will showcase digital innovations aligned to the needs of our regional health and care community, alongside a series of interactive workshops, demonstrations and group discussions, exploring the best way to evaluate digital healthcare technologies and accelerate their successful adoption into practice.

The keynote speaker will be Deborah El-Sayed, Director of Digital & Multi-Channel Development NHS England, while other speakers include: Dr Mike Taylor from the Connecting Care programme; Gary Leeming, Director of Informatics at Greater Manchester AHSN; Dr Charles Lowe from the Digital Health and Care Alliance; and Dr Indra Joshi, National Clinical Lead for Digital Experience at NHS England. Read the full programme here.

Announced as the event’s gold sponsor, LumiraDx is a global health technology company delivering safer, more effective and cost-efficient, diagnostic-led care.

Their unique integration of health and point-of-care diagnostic data, smart technology platform and supported self-care programmes delivers dynamic, digital solutions that meet the demanding healthcare requirements of today.

The event’s silver sponsors are Mindwave Ventures and System C & Graphnet Care Alliance.

System C & Graphnet Care Alliance offers integrated IT solutions to the health and social care market in the UK, providing solutions enabling the integration of services across whole care communities. They are working together with the NHS to transform the way services are provided and to bridge the gap between the acute Trusts and the wider care community.

“But the digital innovations we are adopting in our personal lives often far outpace those offered in health and care settings. This has to change! Moving to a digital future is sometimes easier to say than do, and working out the best way to make the most of the myriad of digital opportunities available isn’t always straightforward.

“At the West of England Academic Health Science Network, innovation is at the heart of our mission to deliver a modern, constantly improving healthcare system for the region. We are the connectors across organisations and sectors, harnessing the enthusiasm and passion of frontline health staff and unlocking the potential for health, commercial and third sector innovators to improve services, patient outcomes and save money.

Insulin Therapy for Type 2 Diabetes

When you have type 1 diabetes, your pancreas doesn't make insulin, a hormone that moves sugar (glucose) from your bloodstream into your cells. People with type 1 diabetes need to take insulin throughout their lives to manage their blood sugar.

Type 2 diabetes is different. Your pancreas still makes insulin, but it doesn't move glucose into your cells as well as it should.

In the early stages of type 2 diabetes, you may try diet and exercise to lower your blood sugar. Your doctor can also prescribe drugs like metformin (Fortamet, Glucophage, Glucophage XR) or sulfonylureas such as glipizide (Glucotrol) or glyburide (Diabeta, Micronase). These drugs lower your blood sugar by keeping your liver from making glucose or helping your pancreas release more insulin.

Another option is for you to take insulin. Because type 2 diabetes progresses over time, most people with it eventually will need insulin.

When to Take Insulin

Good blood sugar control is important because it helps you avoid complications like vision loss, nerve and kidney damage, and heart disease.

In the past, your doctor might have put you on insulin only if oral drugs like metformin and lifestyle changes like diet and exercise didn't lower your blood sugar level enough. Now you might take insulin sooner after you're diagnosed. Research says insulin may help you control your diabetes better. It might also help your pancreas make its own insulin longer.

The advantage of insulin is it lowers blood sugar better than the oral drugs. Insulin also allows for more flexible dosing. Your doctor can tweak your dose to meet your precise blood sugar goals.

Your doctor will check your blood sugar control with an A1c test. This blood test measures your average blood sugar level during the past 2 or 3 months. The goal A1c for someone with type 2 diabetes is less than 7%.

You might take insulin for type 2 diabetes because:

You need to control your blood sugar for a short time. You may need insulin to treat temporary high blood sugar because of things like:

Lifestyle changes and pills haven't helped. If you've tried diet, exercise, and an oral diabetes drug and your blood sugar is still high, your doctor might prescribe insulin.

Your current treatment doesn’t work anymore. Over time, diabetes damages the cells in your pancreas that make insulin. Weight gain and chronic stress can speed this damage and make your body less responsive to insulin. Your pancreas may pump out more insulin at first, but eventually it won't be able to keep up with your body's demand for this hormone.

You haven't stuck with your treatment. Diet, exercise, and oral medicines will control your diabetes only if you use them. Missed doses and dietary lapses could derail your blood sugar control to the point where you need insulin.

Insulin Side Effects

The most common one is low blood sugar (your doctor may call it hypoglycemia), which causes symptoms like:

The needle may irritate your skin in the place where you inject. Insulin can also cause weight gain when you first start to take it.

Who Shouldn't Take Insulin

Insulin isn't right for everyone with type 2 diabetes. The weight gain it can cause could be a problem for people who are already very overweight or obese. To take insulin, you'll need to be able to give yourself shots or have someone close by who can do it for you. If you're afraid of needles, this may not be a good choice for you.

You may not be able to take insulin if you have kidney damage. Your body won't be able to remove the drug quickly enough to keep it from building up.

Your Insulin Treatment Plan

Your doctor will set a dose and schedule based on things like:

  • Your weight
  • Your blood sugar levels
  • Other health problems you have
  • How well the drug works
  • Whether you feel comfortable giving yourself a shot
  • The cost of the medicine

There are a few types of insulin, based on how long it takes to start working and how long it lowers your blood sugar.

When you first find out you have diabetes, your doctor may put you on a long-acting dose of basal insulin, which keeps your blood sugar levels steady throughout the day. You'll take it at dinnertime, bedtime, or in the morning. One shot of basal insulin a day may be enough to control your blood sugar.

If one dose isn't enough, you may need to add bolus insulin to help your body absorb sugar from food. You'll take a bolus dose 15 to 30 minutes before meals. Your doctor might have you combine insulin with oral diabetes drugs to lower your blood sugar better.

It's important to watch your diet, exercise, and take insulin and other medicines just as your doctor prescribed. If you're nervous about injecting, ask your doctor to show you less painful tools and techniques.

While you're on insulin, check your blood sugar level often. Your numbers will let your doctor know that you're taking the right insulin dose, and adjust it if you're not.

Length of Treatment

It depends on your situation.

If you just found out you have type 2 diabetes, you may need insulin for only a short time. Once your insulin levels are back to normal, you may be able to maintain them with diet and exercise, or with oral diabetes medicines.

If you've had diabetes for many years and your pancreas no longer makes enough insulin, you may need to stay on your treatment longer.

Funb3rs, your next obsession

diciembre 1, 2019

Forget Ruzzle, Candy Crush and even 2048: today comes an intriguing game about numbers invented in Brianza

Photo: MIxelPhoto: MIxel

He wants to become a new viral game and maybe make it. We have tried it in preview and find it fun, simple to understand, well developed and potentially viral. Let's talk about Funb3rs, social game in the form of an app, available free for iOS, Android and Amazon that is launched today worldwide.

As the word suggests, Funb3rs tries to combine numbers and fun: in front of a grid of numbers, the purpose create the most exact amounts dragging your finger on this grid, so as to overcome your friends.

Developed in Brianza by two companies in partnership that started with a ‘physical’ game (Pytagora), Funb3rs has an interesting story behind it, which we went on to find by talking directly with the creators, Massimo Cassamagnaga (Account Director of Mixel) is Emanuele Pessi (founder of CreativaMente).

The game seems clearly inspired by Ruzzle, but can you tell us about your other source of inspiration, Pytagora? What is left of the educational function of the original game in Funb3rs?

Emanuele Pessi replies: "Pytagora is a puzzle-based game that contains the numbers 0 to 9 and the operators of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. The aim is to create sequences of arithmetical equalities by composing the tiles together. This is a game that allows us to develop the aptitude for logic and reasoning and this is certainly an element that was inherited directly from Funb3rs. In addition to the element of challenge present in the playful application, in fact, one of its most interesting aspects is that even after very few matches users realize they are much better at composing arithmetic sums ”.

Funb3rs is born from the union of physical and digital world. How did you mix the two? What problems do you encounter in such an operation?

Massimo Cassamagnaga answers: "Cross-media not only digital or television, indeed. For our part we immediately perceived the enormous potential of the physical game transposition on mobile platforms. The beauty of the challenge was to turn these potentialities into the mobile opportunity, whose interaction modes add fun dimensions. In fact we kept Pytagora's winning layout (the competition, the mental challenge …) and we designed a mobile game suitable for all players: in our tests over the past few months we have discovered that Funb3rs also captures those who thought they didn't know how to deal with larithmetics ”.

What is your business philosophy with respect to the game world?

“Propose games that are first and foremost fun, but that are full of stimuli and allow the user to enjoy a gaming experience as complete as possible. According to AESVI data, about half of Italian videogame production focuses on mobile: it is an increasingly fierce market and it is of fundamental importance for us to develop exciting and distinguishing games ”.

How did you develop Funb3rs? How many idle attempts before finding the right formula?

"The design process of the game lasted several weeks. The key point is to know that in reality what we have achieved is only a solid base on which to build, thanks to the help of the players, many new and amusing game modes. We have worked a lot on usability and interaction, because the luck of a game like Funb3rs lies in its simplicity of use. The testers have shown us how to be more and more attracted to them. For this game, on the designer board we wrote the mantra Make it simple, make it funny. "

Has physical closeness with your CreativaMente partners played a role in getting to know you, in the design and development of the game?

"Absolutely s. Offices 15 minutes away helped a lot. But above all the experience (in gaming and IT) as well as the common vision and culture have been and are fundamental. it was like we had always worked together ”.

Pessi intervenes: "One of the most interesting things about this project was the continuous dialogue between two companies both operating in the gaming sector, but coming from a more traditional and concrete path, on the one hand, and more modern and technological, on the other. In the development of Funb3rs, since the first idea developed with the president of Mixel Mario Fumagalli, we have influenced each other on the basis of our respective experiences and we are very satisfied with the result.

Numbers and mathematics are more and more protagonists of the games. How do they enrich us?

“Mathematics has always been a fundamental tool to stimulate the mind and keep it occupied in a positive way, the challenge to create tools that allow us to use its properties while offering a source of fun and engaging entertainment. Also for this reason we are witnessing an increase in the offer of games based on numbers, which are by definition universal and which allow, among other things, to easily overcome any language barrier ”.

After this launch what developments do you foresee?

Cassamagnaga answers:"The goal we set ourselves for the future is to make the interaction between players ever more fun and varied. I myself am a lover of board games, precisely because of the true and genuine sociality that derives from it. A game like Funb3rs allows you to play with people from all over the world and its power just the universality of the language it uses, and this simplifies things a lot ".

Traditionally, all varieties of cannabis are derived from sativa, over the years they have been breed out and are now a combination of sativa and indica, depending on the breeder.

However, there is a third sub-species of cannabis known as ruderalis. Cannabis ruderalis, differs from sativa and indica varieties it two significant ways. Firstly, it contains little if any THC, and secondly, ruderalis plants reach maturity (i.e. flower) a set time after germination – flowering is not induced by changes in the light period.

Detention Won't Stop Him Riding

Since Nicholas Logsdail founded the Lisson Gallery in 1967, it has become one of the most influential international contemporary art galleries in the world. Their main focus in on artists who transform the way art is presented. One such artist is Ai Weiwei. Born in Beijing, Weiwei works in a range of mediums, including sculpture, architecture, photography, and film. One of his most notable projects was a collaboration on the Beijing National Stadium for the 2008 Olympics.

As a political activist, Weiwei uses his work to make critical social and cultural commentaries. Investigating government corruption and cover - ups eventually got him into trouble in 2011, when he was arrested at Beijing Capital International Airport without any official charges. But despite being held in detention for eighty-one days, it does not seem to have impeded his creativity.

Ai Weiwei's third solo exhibition at the Lisson Gallery, runs until the 19th July. It is free to visit, and while there, you will be able to explore a monumental new installation of bicycles, which is to become part of an ongoing series, entitled 'Forever'. Forever is a bicycle brand in China that has been around since 1940. Once seen on every street, they are now steadily being replaced by fuming cars.

As well as the main feature, Weiwei also presents a number of personal items, which have been turned into hand-carved copies. Examples include a marble recreation of his father's armchair, jade cosmetic bottles, coat hangers, cuff links, and the window handles of Beijing taxis.

A few items relate to Weiwei's time in incarceration, but most refer to life in China, such as a carved marble gas mask that refers to the pollution in the capital.
