Welcome to the Tick-Mail Update, I'm Kiana Daniels, CEO of investiva.com. The trade war talks continue to take its toll on the Chinese Yuan, especially versus the US dollar, oil prices also took a hit over the trade deal weariness. On Tuesday, the UK will take the stage as the Bank of England Governor Mark Carney speaks in the parliamentary testimony. We also have the Eurozone's zoo survey for October and New Zealand's consumer price index for the third quarter. Australia is China's trading buddy and is right next to New Zealand, so today I'm looking at the Aussie dollar pair, which is struggling to pierce through the daily ichimago cloud. Just like the Kiwi yam pair that I covered yesterday, the Aussie dollar pair also appears to be in the process of forming a double bottom bearish reversal chart pattern. Also, the Aussie is less bullish than Kiwis, keep that in mind. Regardless, we may be able to see the pair at least travel through the Ichimago cloud and test the neckline of the double bottom chart pattern, which coincidentally falls on the all-important 50% of the banachu trace Of course, trading in the financial markets involves a risk of loss and you should only trade the money that you can afford to lose.

This review aimed to identify the effectiveness of a text messaging intervention on hypertension management, specifically focusing on the dosage of text messaging and additional interventions with text messaging. The results showed that text messaging significantly reduced systolic blood pressure but not diastolic blood pressure. Text messages delivered at a lower frequency had a small effect on SBP and DBP reduction, and the use of a text messaging intervention have the odds of uncontrolled BP among patients with hypertension in six months. The review suggests that one-way text messaging delivered weekly is effective and requires fewer resources, and future studies should integrate text messaging into other interventions to improve adherence behaviors and blood pressure control among patients with hypertension.

Boys had fun, as you can see by some of the selfies, but it was good and now it's back to hard work for us boys. It was the biggest showpony today.


Hello everyone. I am James Milan. Welcome to this episode of Talk of the Town. I am very pleased to be joined today by an Arlington resident who has been up to something that you may not know about, but you should. And that's what we're here to talk about today. Bethany Eisenberg is joining me. She is the president and founder of the Guatemalan Aid Fund, which is a nonprofit operating right out of Arlington, a house here in Arlington, with a huge impact already that we want to kind of dig deep into here. So Bethany, first of all, really appreciate your being here. So so grateful to be here. Thank you for inviting me. Yeah, no, it took us a little while to put this together, right? Because of complications in our life, but also because I know you're just very very busy and you're about to go back to Guatemala again, I think. Yes, next week. Yeah, very soon. So next week. So thanks. I'm so glad we found a little pocket of time to be able to talk. So I just, I've mentioned already, you're, you kind of founded the Guatemalan Aid Fund, and I know it's, that's over 20 years ago now, but I would like to ask you to start by just kind of telling us, how did this come about? I mean, I just am going to assume that you weren't born in Guatemala, so you came to be aware of things sometimes since then.  Okay, well, well, thanks. So I always wanted to go to Latin America, and our children were born in Latin America. And when I went down there, it was over 20 years ago, I had never been there. And I had never really seen a culture that experienced such poverty. And I was really quite stunned by it. And it's a beautiful country. It's absolutely gorgeous. I mean, the everything, fresh air, sunshine, mountains, volcanoes, beautiful waterways and the people are just colorful and beautiful. But the poverty is incredible. It's the fourth poorest country in the world. There's malnutrition of more than 50% of the indigenous children and most indigenous children, or many don't have access to clean water, school, it's very difficult to find jobs. And I saw a glimpse of that when I was down there the first time 20 years ago, but it was enough that I came back and I just looked at my house. And I looked at, you know, and I thought to myself, my bathroom has more things in it is larger and cleaner than many of these people's homes. And I just had to do something. And so that year, I stopped giving, we used to have a big huge Christmas party, you know, lots of gifts that people didn't need, you know, and kind of typical, right? And I just stopped. I said, everybody, you okay this year that we don't exchange gifts and everyone was thrilled, of course. And I said, and could you bring like maybe some infant Tylenol or something to the party or, and they were thrilled. And we had this pile of donations under the tree and nobody left with a gift that they didn't want or and that started the Guatemala Aid Fund. And people were so enthusiastic. And then in order to do more every time I went to Guatemala and, you know, I just wanted to do more because there's such a need. So I started a 501C3. And I was lucky because this is kind of funny. When I started it, I, I didn't know really anything. And I did it myself. And the woman at the IRS said, Bethany, when you open a nonprofit, you can't be the president and the secretary and all of the board members, you have to have other people. And she was so lovely. She literally walked me through the entire process. So I became a 501C3. I got board members and five of our six board members are Arlington residents. Oh, that's wonderful. Yeah. And we've had different people over the 20 years. And I'm just so grateful to all of them because everybody contributes something from their perspective, their skills. And we just, you know, want people to enjoy being part of the Guatemala Aid Fund, that it gives back to them, you know, that it's not a burden being on the board. And so, yeah, that's how we started. And, and, you know, over 20 years later, you know, here we are, and we've progressed and we have a great, great, great Guatemalan communities that we're, we're, we're frankly honored to be able to help them in the little way that we can. It's, it's just an honor that we can, you know, do something and, you know, be productive and helpful. Yeah.  Personally, I really, I love the, I was telling you before we went on air that the tone of your website is very, very clear. Right from, you know, as soon as you look at, and that's what you wanted a website. I know you were talking before. It's kind of messy or whatever. Because I do it myself. I don't have a professional web developer. So it's got all my thoughts thrown in there. So fair enough. But I think as far as I understand, really one of the points of any good website is, can somebody look at it for five seconds and feel like they have a sense of what that organization, what that cause, what that thing is about? And that was my, that was my experience in looking over the website. You know, just earlier. And what I love about it is that idea that you are there to accompany people, you are there to empower people, you are not there to spread charitable works, to lead somebody by the hand or nose. So talk to us about that ethos of the Guatemalan. Yeah. Yeah. So again, we're just honored to be welcomed, you know, into their community.  And the people that we've partnered with, it's just unbelievable to be in their presence. They're just so inspiring. It's people, they're Guatemalans, and they could be wealthy Guatemalans. And they've chosen to give back to people in need. And when you talk to them, they say, it's just something we have to do. And so what we do is, we partner with them. And I consider us to just be a connector. It's not, and I'm very clear to say it's not our project. We're not building that, you know, community center. We're helping them build their community center because we have people who want to help here. And I can connect them and they feel comfortable because they go there and I know them and I know the people. And because these projects get done. And so what they are working at, the people that we work with, they're trying to eliminate the root causes of poverty that result in child abandonment, child abuse, deadly and dangerous migration, because migration is not the answer, you know. And when you talk to many of these Guatemalans, I mean, who wants to leave their family? Who wants to leave their home? But when you don't have clean water, you can't get to school.  It's desperation. But with just a little bit of help, you know, to help them be able to attend school, to help get clean water, to help with psychological and parenting skills and things like that. So that's how we partner with them. And again, it's not our projects. But yes, we're involved in the planning and the implementation and the fundraising and the connecting. And my background's in environmental and engineering water specifically, water resources. So I help with that as well. But it's really, it's amazing what they do. And can I talk about the parenting school? Of course. So the parenting school, we work with Fatima's Children Home, which is not an orphanage. It's a home for children for as long as they need it. And the circumstances by which they come to that home are devastating. But when you walk in the home, it's just, there's music and kids laughing and playing and they're clean and they're coming out in their jammies and there's 45 kids in a tiny little Cape House. But it seems fantastic. But their goal is not to have the kids stay in care, it's to have them reunited with either family members, maybe aunt, uncle, grandparent, or their biological parents, if it's safe, or to find a forever home for them.  You got them back on their feet, so to speak, and now send them right back. Exactly, but to where they came from, and there's no change. And they said, we want to break that cycle of why they came here in the first place. So they brilliantly started this parenting school that the parents have to be committed. They have to come or they will not receive their children back or wherever the children will be placed. And they have family counseling, parent counseling, the caregivers have to have a job. It doesn't matter what it is or how much it pays, but they have to have a job. The children have to be consistently in school, and they learn how to be good parents, and also how to be good to themselves, and to build strength in the family bond. And this completely changes patterns of abuse. And the parents are proud, and they go back and tell other people in their communities. But the thing about it, the reason it really works is it's not a handout. They, when they come, they have to pay a little bit to come, because they need to be invested in it. And then they have to consistently come, and the children have to be in school. But they will get supplies, food supplies, clothing, medical assistance for everyone in their family. But they won't get that if they're not attending the classes, their kids aren't in school, and there isn't progression. So they really are changing the cycle. So it's quite different from someone lines up, and you give the whole family some food, and they go away. Quid pro quo has gotten a bad name for obvious reasons over the last couple of years. But that is the value of that, that there is an exchange here. That you have responsibility and commitment on your side, and you have to stay, you have to stick with that. That's not a one-time thing. That's a every week thing. That's right. And that's what it is.  That's right. Mentally, physically, everything. And it's really quite an honor to see the commitment of the parents and their appreciation when they've gone through it. And to see them rise up. And that's the whole purpose. So we just had great people. We had just joined in. And to see that the center was built with recycled materials. And the workers were trained in construction. So we're creating jobs. They're getting experience and things. So the whole program, it's so much better than just giving money. It's employing the community, helping them rise up and creating opportunity with dignity in their own country. Yeah. Well, I gotta say, I mean, can anybody tell if I'm a fan or not? Obviously I am. But it's because you described the birth of the idea of the parent school as a piece of genius. I would describe this as a piece of genius. And here's why. What you're doing is you're taking a community of privileged people, which is us. And you are asking them for things that they can afford. And you don't want them to feel bad about it. You want them to feel good about it. So it's all good on this end. So boom, in it goes. And then what comes out on the other side is you saying, you guys know what the problems are. You know what the solutions are. You're going to be able to do that if we can also help. Exactly. Come on now. We're just, Guatemala Aid Fund is a connector. That's what I tell people. When people say, oh, you're doing so much, I said the Guatemalans are doing everything. And they are committed to their neighbors. It's neighbor helping neighbor. And it's really amazing when you see someone there that by our standards has nothing. By our standards, like less than nothing. And they turn around and give to their neighbor with less than less than nothing. And it's quite inspiring. And the community center was a dream for a long time because Fatima is children's home and they are child protection lawyers.  They kept seeing these kids coming from this indigenous area. It's called Sola La. It's absolutely stunningly beautiful, where Lake Atitlan is called the most beautiful lake in the world and surrounded by volcanoes. And that's created the lake and it's stunning. Yeah, I hope that all of you can come and visit. It's gorgeous. But they knew that the kids were coming from this area and they couldn't get the parents into the parenting school. It's very difficult to get into the city from this rural area. And they said, we just want to build a similar type of center out there. And that was their vision and their dream. And we're like, we're with you and we're going to help you.  And it was just so exciting because we went up there to the side of the mountain to the forest and met with the local people there. And one of the local landowners said, there's ancient ceremonial currently being used, indigenous ceremonial sites. And I don't want them to be destroyed. And I don't want this land to be destroyed and want to partner with you to save this land and protect this land and build this community center on part of it. And so it was all done through COVID. The last time I was there was 2019 when they were doing the foundation. It was thrilling for me. And the same thing there is they employed local Guatemalans to do the construction. And it's wonderful to come and want to help in other countries. It really is. But it's so empowering and impactful when they're doing the work, they're being paid, they're getting experience. So the manager of the site was a Guatemalan and he lived in Canada for years. And he learned really good construction skills and wanted to give back. He moved back to Guatemala, worked on this project and taught these high level construction skills to the local people. And they're now very valued workers. They got paid, they were invested because it's their own community. They're working to uplift their own community and get skills. It's just incredible to see that. And a little side story is they said, well, we can just build the thing right on a slab and we'll build it real cheaply. And I said, you know what? I said, from engineering here, I said, there's mud slides and there's, you know, it's on the side of a mountain and there's the rainy season. And I said, we really want this to stay. I said, I will help you raise the money. And it was a very expensive foundation for Guatemala standards. It was $30,000 with rebar and concrete and dug footings and everything. I said, but I would like to help you raise the money for your thing that's going to stay there forever and not get blown away. And you can build a second story on it if that's necessary. So anyway, they've been doing this. And the community center, the thing about it is it's their community center. And their local people are the ones that are working there. And they are all invested in having it happen. And it's creating jobs. And there's a malnutrition prevention program there. There is a library. There is after school dropout prevention program and school support and a medical clinic and all of this. And what we're working on next year is to put in a clean water well, a clean source of water for this indigenous community. But when you see these kids that are so excited to have the opportunity to learn and people who are working in the community. And I just want to say again that we're a very small part of this. And we're honored. I'm absolutely grateful. And the people that work with us are because they see and like you were saying, you don't have to do a lot. You don't have to give a lot just.  We all know we have more than we need. And so many of us wish to give. And what's the easiest way to give? We give money. And but we give money in the hopes and in the faith that something good will happen. But we don't know most of the time. But folks who give money to you.  It's really invaluable for the way that somebody like me would feel that, okay, you know, I know I could do more, but I'm doing this and look, I feel good. Right.  And so we say, whatever you give to us is going and not only is it going, it's incredibly impactful. You literally, literally are absolutely changing the lives of Guatemalans. They want to go to school. They want to work and they want to stay in Guatemala. I mean, who wouldn't, if you saw how beautiful it is and everything and, and the culture is stunning. And so we're just honored to help them realize their dreams in, in their own country and not have to, you know, desperate and deadly migration is just, it's just brutal. Yeah. I may, I may not have counted accurately, but I know that it is at least five times now that you have said the word honored, that you have described yourself as honored. And I believe you. And I just want to say that it, it speaks to the, the kind of humility with which you are approaching this mission because it's been a mission clearly. And it's moving to hear you speak about it that way. I believe you, you know. I'm lucky. And I'm really, I'm really who, you know, I say that to people all the time. I say, who has the opportunity, you know, especially in this time right now, when there's so many unsettling things happening everywhere, everywhere around the globe, and then you have this opportunity to help wonderful people doing excellent things for their neighbors and to be part of something good. It's just, that's just good. That is just, I'm, I'm the lucky one here. I'm blessed to be able to be a part of that. And, and also, you know, being able to go there. I'm going there next week. And as I was telling you, I'll be going up onto the side of the mountain into an indigenous community. And they're so welcoming. And I'm just grateful. I'm just grateful that I can do that. Well, let's, I was going to say, let's help you do that. But I don't really mean that because that would go counter to your whole message.  But I think we should do a little of that, you know, as part of the message here. So how can people help? And what are the different ways in which you are raising the money that is going to these excellent ends? Well, thank you for asking. And, and we did talk earlier that, you know, I do consider a big part of, if you want to call it our mission or whatever, is we do that teen to teen event where it's not for raising money. And, and we really want to send a message to anybody that you can always do something and don't ever think that it's little because any tiny thing that you do is, is helpful. But we do have some things and we have some exciting things. Right. But you just mentioned the teen to teen events. Yeah. We should, we should very quickly let people know what that is. And then, yeah, let's show people a couple of things. We haven't done the teen to teen event, of course, since COVID, but we get teens together. And the purpose I started that years ago, because kids don't know that other kids can't go to school in other countries because they don't have money for the uniform and they can't get a boss or they can't get there. And they don't know that entire families, six people live in a shack with a dirt floor. And that's not, you know, why should they? They haven't been exposed to that. And we're not trying to expose them to that, but we're trying to get teens together to talk about community service. It can be anything. It doesn't have to be in another country building wells. It can be right here like, do you love dogs? Then you can collect dog food and give it to your local shelter. Do you love the park near your house? And it's needs to be cleaned up. You can go clean it up. So the teen to teen thing is a party that we put together and have teens that do service talk to other teens that do service. And to inspire them, why do you do it? Because you care about something. And it's not as meaningful if it's not a cause that you don't care about.  There's a myriad of things you could volunteer at ACMI. Absolutely. Well, yeah. And it should be something that gives back to you. And that's what we find is that, you know, you do it because, you know, it's something you care about. And that makes it so meaningful. And it doesn't have to be Guatemala Aid fund. And so that's something that, that, you know, we just try to inspire people, whoever it is, you know, adults or children just to find something that's meaningful to you and give back. But we do, yeah, go ahead. Yeah, no, no, I just want, I do want to. All right. I'll show. You know, kicking and screaming, you're going to come. No, no, I do. We, our project this year, which we need to raise a very large amount of money for, is a clean water well for the village Las Minas neighborhood area of San Jose, Chacaya, which is very interesting because that means Chacaya means where there's a lot of water in the local Kachacal language, but they don't have access to clean water. It's there. So we want to have a water filling station. We want to drill a well, solar powered pumps, a very simple but excellent chlorination system. So we'll be raising money for that. And also, this land that I was talking to you about is a long term plan. And if there's something that I could say that people want to donate to have an impact on the world is this is native, forested, threatened land that has three indigenous ceremonial sites on it, we would like to raise money to purchase it and put it in protective care of the indigenous people forever there. And what I consider that would be a great gift to the world. And so that's a big project for us. So this, this book, the money will go towards that. So this is a book that is headed here right now. This is a labor of love that I've worked on with our illustrator Don Prindle in Maine. And my sister, Martha Eisenberg on the board, she's also here in Arlington. And this book, we call it a book with a purpose or four. And it gives back. So 100% of the profits from this book called Singing Beach Day, and it's Singing Beach in Manchester, Massachusetts is about the book. And this book will all the profits, not the profits, all the sales, not just the profits will go directly to the programs that you and I have been talking about, but mostly that land preservation and the water well and the community center. And this book, the purposes are, you can see that the people in this cover are all different colors, each one of them is a different color. And it's to showcase diverse families and that you may these, this family may have been formed by many different situations. And we want the reader to make up whatever they think that is. But in the story, the children are trying to talk their mom into taking the day off of work and taking them to the beach to Singing Beach. And they successfully do that. So the another message is to take time off and how precious it is to spend time with family. And then some of the things that the children do and kind of say to the mom on how it's important to take the time off and how precious this time is. It's the third purpose is how much we learn from our children. And I have to say that I have learned so much from our children. I can't even begin to list all of the things that I would never be exposed to if it wasn't for them. And they've just made me a better person. And I think it comes through in this book. And then the fourth thing is that I already mentioned that all of the sales will go to these programs. And our artist is amazing. She's just incredible. And she put in, she just brought it to life. She brought this book to life. You can see the motion and the movement. And joy. Joy, love. And she put all these little details in it. And one of them is, so this is a Guatemalan weaving. This weaving is called, is a backstrap weaving.  And they have sticks and they pull it down. And you can see it's the width of the sticks. And this is incredibly detailed. This is a very typical Guatemalan weaving. And you can see the other side, the threads on it. But the colors, everything in Guatemala is colorful. And this would take months to make. So we also have these for sale. And we, again, all of the money goes back to Guatemala, all of it. Everything that goes to Guatemala, it goes back to the people who make the items and are running these programs. So we do have an Etsy site for that. And then just some of the things that we have, I just, I'll show you if you're looking for little ornaments. This is the Quetzal bird. And I guess I'll put it here right in front of me. So the Quetzal bird is the national bird of Guatemala. It's also the money, the Quetzal. And the reason the Quetzal is the actual dollar bills and money now is in the ancient times, the feathers of the Quetzal bird were used as money. And so the Quetzal is. And so we have many different things. I just brought a couple of these because they're kind of cute. But we have many things on that Etsy site, you know, pocket books and jewelry and everything. And we also have things that are made by Indigenous crafts. And then we have people that donate items. And again, 100% of that money goes to the programs. And so we're very excited. We're very excited about this book. And I hope we get to read this in Arlington Libraries. Yeah, that would be great. I would hope so. We can help make that happen at a library event, I think so. So basically what I hear is that there are, there's ways to get stuff if you so choose in terms of giving, or you can just give. But one way or the other, whatever you're getting is reinforcing the message. And then the money itself, as you have clearly expressed, is going straight to. Straight there, directly. Yes, the people in communities that we so or you so much want to support. And now we do as well, I hope. Bethany, it's been, it's been a very nice chat. Thank you so much. It really has and inspiring, I have to say. Definitely. And I am looking forward to just kind of staying in touch with you and seeing how things go, seeing how things go with the well and the land and on from there. But I want to thank you for, again, your time here today, but also for this work that you're doing, which I know you are honored to do. But boy, it's nice to talk about some positive things going on in the world now. And those people who are getting the most benefit, we hope from all of this right now, are so deserving. Yeah. Well, I'm just, thank you so much for, you know, you can tell I'm super passionate about it. And thank you for having me here as thrilled to come. And I do want to say kind of the message I hope is that, you know, we all can do something, you know, that's what I've learned is we all can do something and it doesn't have to be huge.  And then you see these kids that come in in desperate situations that you can't, I wouldn't even tell you.  That's possible. That's possible. And it really is. And I just want to, you know, thank everybody for listening and thank you so much for inviting me here. Absolutely. Well, as you said, everybody can do something and it doesn't have to be huge. That's right. But it can be huge. I'll just leave it at that. She is Bethany Eisenberg. It is the Guatemala Aid Fund. We will make sure that you can see on your screen how to make contact and make donations if you wish. And we very much hope that to keep up with Bethany as I was saying. So we'll keep everybody attuned to the situation. This has been Talk of the Town. I am James Milan. Really appreciate Bethany's time. Really appreciate yours as well. We'll see you next time.


So they were sprinklings of the Devil Wears Prada. They're sprinklings of Emily in Paris. Keep watching to find out what book we're talking about today. My name is Kyla Denigno and you're watching Kyla's Reading Day. Today we're talking about the book, Fake. This book was written by Erica Katz. The genre of the book is fiction. The theme of the book is thriller suspense. So the biggest plot twist in this book and I'm not gonna give too many spoilers but when you find out why Emma was so upset when you find out why she's having nightmares when you find out why she cannot trust people forget about it. I was not expecting that. The book has this whole coming of age oh I'm learning how to be in a thought I'm this big metropolitan city and then what are your demons? I was not expecting that. I was not and that plot twist is really important because unprotected children become traumatized adults. I'm not even a therapist and you got that one for free. So to find out that Emma had been keeping this secret for so long living with this story it's like all that stuff she doesn't have anyone she can share it with.   So last point number seven what I reread the book yes. So they were sprinklings of the Devil Wars Prada they're sprinklings of Emily in Paris oh my god and even finding Anna the show on Netflix and you're just like that's the only spoiler I'm gonna give you think about all three of those movies and try to combine them right and that's not even doing this justice but Emma was off the hook and this is definitely gonna be a character that I'm gonna miss. Again my criteria for rereading a book is do I still think about the characters when I finish the book do I wonder what they're up to do I wonder what would have happened to them and I will definitely be wondering what's happening with Miss Emma as the days go on. So yep absolutely absolutely so leave me a comment let me know how you enjoyed this video let me know if you've read this book let me know how you feel about suspense or thriller novels so until next time this is Kyla Denigau and you're watching Kyla's reading day. Bye.


So you don't understand Qmash, not a problem. Qmash is a mix between extrude and merged points.  Then if you get close to a point and you left click, you'll be able to extrude that point in and out. Now the cool part is when you do the same thing but to a point right next to it. If two points get close enough, then they will automatically merge together and create a complete piece of solid geometry. That's really all this does. It's super useful.

Taka bani maenidia Kwawe nana pukumu na kawakata Nani kwawe mag Pure xikLS Melissa na kutakia kumbusi ya kunyo delivers the the If you ask me the same question and tell you this, in Chelsea, they have a coach that alikuja la season, the way amichuwa itimiake, first they are very young players who are so energetic, muskia. Aoma difenda suengine, when they attack you, onakuja kama wingbox. So, and I will convert, and I will defend, but at the same time I will convert. Sazili nende kuatak, they are weapon. Sazili nende ku defend, they are the shield. So that guy has a structure, he has the personnel, and he has the tactics.  So, up a unit for Bia 2, Rosati. Manchester United on end of pigo 3 nil. 3 nil? Ya. Edo ya mga tumia ni 3 nil, siyo rase mani, of course kama kia ipa le kwenya kumen section tumia 2 predictions zha koni zibi. And moving on forward kama kia man city vs west ham, and we know Manchester is west ham wa upa namba 4. Yes. This means, manze mi kazi zuri amama fanya wu bia. Yami sa, moez amfanya kasi po. How do you think what I sustained, before league he ishia ama, what I wrote it down ama? You know, moez has done brilliant in that team. Kali wa tore le, wakata linia wali kwa na fight to relegation. And through the signings, su-check, su-fall, saia me leta ben drama, wakata me leta lingat. So in that time, I made it from relegation team to a team that is fighting for Europe. In baka e season, they have a chance to qualify for Champions League. And that just, we know Nesha, manze tadakum bati amo time. That's another trophy for another day. So just because of moez, I think they have a chance. But kitu nesawa ribia, ni iyo uugbona bata injari. And he was a very good player for them in the defence. And they were keeping a lot of cases. They were scoring a lot of goals from set pieces. So just because of maybe that itawa sumboa lakini, they are attacking players, they have Ben drama, Antonio, Bowen, fantastic player. They have a chance of finishing top 4. They have a chance. Given that the teams they are fighting against is my United and Arsenal. And probably Leicester, Leicester wa nr. 12. They weren't united then. No, it's true, it's the reality. They are playing, they are fighting against Arsenal, Leicester, Arsenal, Spaz. The teams are not in a good position. They are not in a good condition. So they have a chance of finishing top 4. What is the prediction for Man City? Man City is not in a good position. Man City is not in a good position. Kamalasi is not in a good position. The thing that I see in this match, first of all Man City, is that sometimes they are not very convincing. Sometimes at home. I saw, but the thing is, I'm just talking about in the Premier League, because in the Premier League, Apokwao umesumulosa na na Southamptom. In the Premier League, Moka Tokadro. Fakata wali po, red career, waka sa idea waka na biharu. Then waka kujapoka utan na Krissol Palace. Waka nyeshu omoto. So sayi, waka na inform team in the name of West Ham. Not inform, West Ham lost their last game. They lost their last game. But I want you to look at the way this Western team, played against Liverpool. You get? Ya, wali pick the Liverpool. Muzuri. Sayi ni kubatisha na get. So it's a Western side, that when they are on song, bro, wuki kamba ya, wata wokana ewe. Na jo heo game ya West Ham na Liverpool. West Ham alisha na heo game na Liverpool. And one place you can't win against Man City. It's in the midfield. But again, Afi, let's just... Football is a game of what? Sometimes when things are tight, if you don't take your chances, na piku wa nil na on enda home. So this game is very, very tight, trust me. But Man City, the last time they lost against West Ham side, wali piku wa one nil. In the Karabao. 20, 21. So it's a game that umbagu e de palena with an open mind, because me I really have an open mind, that West Ham can beat them. So it will be a cage game. So na enda pali 21 Man City. But I won't be surprised if they are beaten. That's it. I'm going for 31 City. Okay, okay, okay. All right. Kuna mechiki na kali sana, Liverpool na Suntom 21. Na tranyu wa komba Liverpool wali piga Chelsea. Wali piga Arsenal na Limea, wali piga Arsenal. Yafon nil ya. Na tranyu wa piga komba Arsenal for eight consecutive games. So niku wa nil. Arsenal have been beating small teams. Now when they met, when they met Liverpool, they were taking back to where they belong. Bro. We can't do this. We can't do this. We can't do this. We can't do this. We can't do this. We can't do this. We can't do this. At Arsenal right now, what we see, me right now, I'm not a fan. I'm just a spectator, because whatever is happening at Arsenal, we just to number a T-shirt. You know what? So the game has one strategy. Let's talk about it. How many players do you have? Yeah, a lot of players. Let's move on. Let's move on. So when you have one, Liverpool, one of the best teams in the league. I think in my opinion, they have the second best team that they got from Man City. But the problem with Liverpool is that Van Bikes will never end up in Istanbul. He has made a lot of mistakes. Lakin ila game ya, West Ham, kama si Van Dike kongi fungo bwomengi. And we've seen in the last few games kama kwanzei game ya West Ham, when I think wanyu, I think Van Dike stood out. Game ya Arsenal, he stood out. So with that Van Dike coming into form, it will play a very big role to Liverpool. And they will be up there. But I don't think they will be in the league. Do you think they miss when I look? Absolutely. That guy is a machine. That guy is an engine. And I mean, I'm not sure. I don't know if it doesn't fit into the style of something. But it's something that nashanga. And they miss him very well. Very, very much. When I miss, because Thiago, Thiago Nkantara, he has not come. I just stand up. I just step up. If you saw the Arsenal game in my opinion, in my humble opinion, he was my man of the match. Elliot Alipata injury. He was just coming out. Thiago, against Arsenal, he was the man of the match. He was running the game. He had never dropped Dupana. He was opening Arsenal like they were. So, Rix, mimi okinuliza kusuhi game ya, Liverpool na Soton. Soton. Soton. Soton. Soton. Soton. Soton. Soton. Soton. Liverpool, against Soton, is a winnable game because we came here. The last game was chosen na Poto. Ili konifomali tikuwa. So, wali rest some players. So, for this game. Ya. You get, so, Soton na. Soton na nida pona shida. Kapsa given that Soton na lose last game. Soton na nida pona shida.  Pasta, na ni ihegion. Sison. Skoprediction. Skoprediction, Apple, 4-1.

Kater got forward because he was in the midfield. He was in the midfield. He was in the class. He was a modern man. He was in the injury. So the other day he was in the laser course in the Kup of Nation. He was in the injury. No, he was in the injury. But what was the problem? They did not watch the fall. But it was the mini. It was reported that he was in the jam. It was reported that he was in the jam. But it was reported that he was in the jam. What is the problem? It's literally... It will not take the timing. I don't know how many games he has played in that one month. He has played a lot of games. How many points are those? 12 points. Do you know one thing that most of the time during the campaign season in the same month as he was in the league, January, December, January. He was in the league. He was in the league. He was in the league. He was in the league. He was in the league. So when you ask, when you say that... Okay. Okay. I mean after now he was in the league. Yes, that's my opinion. I was in the league. Yes. I was in the league. Get her now. So who is going to win the league? Sit. Sit. Chensi. Chensi will sit here. Chensi will sit here. Yes, yes. Next. Next. We will be in the league. These boys.

For Talents, for Warlock at 25, we're going to be looking at both Destro and Affliction. Starting out with Destro, we're going to be running 5 out of 5 Imp Corruption to make it instant. Then we're going to be running 5 out of 5 Imp Shadowbolt, 5 out of 5 Bane, and 1 out of 1 Shadowburn. For the Runes, we're going to be running Demonic Tactics, but there's definitely an option to run Lake of Fire as well potentially. We're going to be running Incinerate on the Leg Rune, and then we're going to be running Metamorphosis on the Hand Rune. This is going to make us a lot tankier overall, and make Searing Pane instant. It's going to make your Shadowbolt into a melee Shadowcleave, but it can still proc Improved Shadowbolt, which means your Shadow Spells are going to do more damage, so Corruption and Agony. This can also be substituted for Chaosbolt if you're feeling like playing more aggressively and you don't think you need the tankiness of Meta.


So what are reasonable adjustments to make when it comes to someone's mental health? Reasonable adjustments. Okay, so we're talking about a workplace setting and where a manager needs to Adjust to accommodate someone who might be going through something challenging The difficulty is in the word reasonable, which is actually the term that's used in the workplace health and safety legal Documents the difficulty is that reasonable is decided after the fact usually in a court of law by a judge To what is interpreted as reasonable which makes it difficult for us as managers to know how to make decisions when we Would prefer not to get to the point of being in a court in front of a judge So generally what it means is something that most people would believe to be reasonable as an adjustment And I know that's not particularly helpful when you're trying to decide in the moment When it's actually happening. So another way that I like to think about it is Is this thing that the person's requesting is it possible that it can be done in the business in the workplace? Without a negative impact on the business itself or the other team members around So for example in some roles It might be reasonable to adjust someone's working hours so that they start and finish a little bit later each day But in other roles like in nursing for example in a hospital Environment that might not be possible because you need certain people on it shifts in certain times In some roles it might be possible to swap around tasks between members of the team But in other situations that wouldn't be doable So there's no sort of hard and fast. This is reasonable. This isn't it's very much about using your judgment as a manager We do talk about this in our workplace mental health masterclass for leaders and we give a list of sort of possible adjustments that could be Available to people but the important thing is that as managers, we shouldn't assume what someone needs We need to be able to have conversations with our team members Where they come forward and if they are requesting some kind of change or flexibility We take their lead in that and and ask is it possible? Can we do this? Would a reasonable person think that this is doable? It doesn't mean you have to accommodate any request that someone puts forward either So I think it might be better if for my mental health and well-being if my manager sent me to work from the Bahamas for a week That would be a an adjustment that I'd request But most places would say that it's probably not reasonable within within our environment in short It's a judgment call speak to your superior if you're not sure speak to HR get legal advice and go from there Hi, I'm Amy Golding director of psychology for the Workplace Mental Health Institute We hope you liked the video if you did make sure to give it a thumbs up We have more and more videos being released each week So when you subscribe you'll get a notification letting you know when a new one's just been published So make sure to hit that subscribe button and don't miss out on this vital information for yourself your colleagues and your loved ones You


My paper presentation is on the role of high-resolution computer tomography in reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction test negative, symptomatic patients for COVID-19 pneumonia. Coming to introduction, for the diagnosis of COVID infection, RT-PCR test has become a standard because of insufficient specimen or laboratory error, RT-PCR testing results may be falsely negative. HRCT has a higher rate of detection of patients with disease in incubation period, particularly with initial negative RT-PCR results. Thus CT is helpful for early diagnosis, timely isolation and treatment of COVID-19 pneumonia. Aim of the study is to know the role of HRCT in those with negative initial RT-PCR results with highly suspected SARS-CoV-2 infection. Coming to materials and methods, the study was done between May 2020 to October 2020 on 100 patients. All these patients are symptomatic patients, but they are RT-PCR negative. And on these patients, HRCT was done with 128 single source dual-energy MDCT machine in our department. Results in our study, run-glass opacity and consolidation are the two main HRCT features of COVID-19 lesions in RT-PCR negative symptomatic patients and is seen among 70 and 32 patients respectively, while combination of run-glassing and consolidation was seen in 42 patients. The lesions were predominantly peripheral or subplural in 44 patients and it is seen in both subplural and central parankamal location in 45 patients and only one patient has only central parankamal location. Coming to images and tables, in these images, we can see run-glass opacities and in the upper images, we can see the run-glass opacities are predominantly seen in the peripheral location, the subplural location. In the lower images, we can see there is involvement of both subplural and central parankamal location. And these images here in this slide, we can see run-glass opacities with adjacent consolidation. These features are common in RT-PCR positive patients, but from our study, we concluded that we can conclude that in RT-PCR negative patients also, the run-glass opacities and consolidation are the predominant features. And this is the table showing the distribution of HRCT characteristics in RT-PCR negative patient. Run-glass opacities are the most common features seen in 77% of patients. Run-glass opacities with consolidation seen in 46.6% of patients. Consolidation is seen in 35.5% of patients. Coming to location of run-glass opacities, most of them are in subplural and central parankamal location, that is, it includes both these locations. And 44% cases, there is only subplural location involvement. And only 1% has central parankamal location. And coming to discussion, our study detects 90 cases who had just HRCT features related to COVID-19 pneumonia in 100 symptomatic patients. Thus, HRCT thorax is useful in patients with a suspicious clinical presentation of COVID-19 and a negative initial RT-PCR result. And run-glass opacities and consolidation with the two main HRCT features in RT-PCR negative symptomatic patients of our study. Presence of bilateral multiple subplural run-glass opacities and consolidated changes are to be considered as COVID-19 pneumonia in this current pandemic even though the RT-PCR results are negative. Run-glass opacities, subplural and peripheral distribution of run-glass opacities is common in patients with RT-PCR positive COVID-19 pneumonia. From our study, we can also conclude that these features are the predominant features in even RT-PCR negative patients also. And same with the consolidation, multifocal patchy segmental consolidation in subplural or along bronchovascular bundles is commonly seen in RT-PCR positive COVID-19 patients. But this type of presentation is also common in RT-PCR negative patients. This is a comparison table between various studies on COVID-19 pneumonia. Our study is on RT-PCR negative patients and all the studies are on RT-PCR positive patients. But from this table, we can infer that run-glass opacities and consolidation are the predominant features in RT-PCR positive cases. But these are also the predominant features in RT-PCR negative cases also. Coming to conclusion, HRCT just plays an important role in detecting COVID-19 in those symptomatic patients in whom RT-PCR test results are negative. In the context of the current pandemic and multiple genetic mutations of the virus, particularly in those symptomatic patients or those with exposure history, positive HRCT should be regarded as strongly suspicious for COVID-19 pneumonia despite negative RT-PCR test results. Recommendations has to be made that patients can be managed with appropriate infection control measures and RT-PCRs representing should be repeated in these patients. These are my references. Thank you.


The Department of Agriculture, Fisheries, Natural Resources and Cooperatives 2020-2021 Media Review provides an opportunity for updates and feedback on work accomplished to date, as well as constructive criticism in areas where performance may be inadequate. Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries, Physical Planning, Natural Resources and Cooperatives Honourable Ezekiel Joseph during his address says the government continues their commitment to assist farmers who have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Honourable Minister Joseph informs that the government of St Lucia recently approved the guarantee to receive the $7.2 million from the government of the Republic of China, Taiwan. We have started in some small way meeting the commitments that we made as a potential support to COVID-19. And I want to say it again because I'm sure I've been chastised as to the one point in $1,500, three months, $500 each. I said that I believe it's more in the interest of the Department to see how we can support our farmers with inputs. The Agriculture Minister also underscores the importance of providing adequate information to the public in a timely fashion. What can we do as a ministry to increase the frequency of information that we are given to our officers, be it fisheries, livestock, exchange, agriculture, forestry, WRMA, whatever it is we need to share information. Because you might have, and I mean I put my extension cap now, I might go down to a farmer and he might want to know something about WRMA. So our information should not only be on bananas or on the seven crops. We should have wronged officers as far as information is concerned. The Minister for Agriculture expresses gratitude to the team leaders and staff of the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries, Natural Resources and Cooperatives for their continued efforts in ensuring the success of the agriculture sector. From the communication unit of the Department of Agriculture, I am Anicia Antoine reporting.


Sorry for the delay, the previous speaker had some technical difficulties. And I'm grateful that so many people came for a talk that has word type occurring three times in the title. So, thanks for being here. My name is Chris, I work at Maker Foundation, and today I'm going to be talking about creating type-size dubs with TypeScript and Type Train. So, let me ask you a question. How many people here use TypeScript on a daily basis? Yeah, that's what I was expecting. More than half of our room already. So, in the last few months, the years even, we have seen this tremendous growth of TypeScript popularity, and recently it even got more popular than well-established languages like Ruby, for example. And we see like steady growth on NPM and so on and so on. So, basically TypeScript has this huge company kind of itself called Microsoft, and there's a lot of workforce working on language itself and on the whole tooling around. So, for example, Visual Studio Code was for many people an entry thing, an entry drag for TypeScript because it worked so well. So, for those who don't use TypeScript, let me give you more or less what to expect from the language itself, some ideas behind it. So, first of all, you can think about TypeScript as a JavaScript with types, and the only twist in this explanation is that the type system is totally different from the one that you would find in classical object-oriented programming languages like Java or C-sharp. So, first of all, it features structure typing. So, imagine you have two types with like interface named and interface first named property of a string type, and in TypeScript, these types are interchangeable, so you can assign one to another. So, this is totally unexpected for a Java programmer which has nominal typing. So, this is totally doable in TypeScript, but it's not possible in classical OOP languages, and you might be wondering about dark picture on the right side, dark image. So, if you're a JavaScript programmer, you might be familiar with dark typing concept. So, the idea is just as follows. If it works like a duck, if it works like a duck, then probably it's a duck. So, you don't need to know the exact shape of entity that you're interacting with if it's just enough if it answers some comments and say, and that's why we have duck, that's typing on the right side. So, structure typing is like a duck typing, but during compile time. So, then we have TypeScript features advanced type level programming features. So, basically it allows us to transform types during compile time in like unimaginable way. So, here we have a complex object type which has like some nested properties, we have some arrays nested and so on and so on. So, we can use some generic type, like for example, deep parser coming from the helper library called TS Essentials and essentially, and we're going to get like an object with all properties marked as optional, recursively. And this is pretty awesome, like, you know, you can have a config which is like strict and then we can have like, you know, some defaults and then make automatically user input which is like optional of this config object. And finally, we have gradual typing. This means basically that we don't have to type our application 100% correctly. Of course, you should try to have this, we can come up with type coverage metric which basically means like we can count the number of symbols in our programs that are typed as any, any means that it's really untyped and divided by all the symbols in our program and we can come up with this presentation how your program is typed. And there's this tool TypeCov which does it for us. And basically, this allows us to just fall back to JavaScript and we don't have type coverage or we don't have type information or we just don't care about types in this specific place but of course it should be used as this as possible. So now let's talk about how, what are the challenges about TypeScript and web-free and Ethereum ecosystem challenges. This should not happen. So obviously... Okay, I know. So that was the human part anyway. So now I created like a simple web-free JS called snippet. So here we, so web-free JS is a library written in JavaScript. It's not TypeScript enabled. So here, even though it's a TypeScript file, we use it as it's marked as any. We don't have any type information about it but we can still use it and just operate like if you... and just write code that would write normally in JavaScript. So if you're like really desperate, you can still use it like this. So for example, here is when we're getting like... when we're creating web-free it's any, when we're getting the block number it's any, we're loading API to interact with smart contracts that die contract on the mainnet. It's again any and you know, everything is any. Like you do in JavaScript. So something you are happy with this. But basically this, like TypeScript in this case doesn't help us that much. Like, you know, it's there but when interacting with blockchain it's like dying. So the easiest approach here is to load typings. So typings is just like external type information that was provided by community usually and it just provides this type information for library written in JavaScript. And there are typings for web-free. Usually you would install it by you are at types web-free. Web-free, but we don't have internet connection so I'm going to just load a git snapshot that I did before this talk. And the only change in the code is that the way that we import library instead of using require we use ES6 style imports and then suddenly our code is properly typed almost. So the web-free is properly typed. We can see that the block number is now number. As we expected we get like normal code competition and so on and so on. But when we interact with a contract deployed on the mainnet we load this API on the fly, this is important bit because really this contract is a dynamic structure. It changes depending on the API that you load. So basically these methods are like type but only a little bit. You see here that balance of this type is just take some arguments, the array of arguments. So it's not really properly typed. And return type is again any, which in fact is big number. So it would be cool if it would say to us that it's big number because people are often thinking that it's just number and try to use class on it and they just get an error during ground time, which sucks. So how do we fix this? So typing says this limitation like it lacks API changes as well so if there's a change to Web3.js library then typing needs to be changed by someone later. And as mentioned before it doesn't work with dynamic interfaces like load API and then we generate a wrapper on the fly during the round time so it's impossible to type. Solution for this problem is to generate typing from the fly. So basically we can gather API files from our project upfront before combining it with TypeScript compiler and in the separate build step just generate these typing types. So basically DTS files. And this is exactly what TypeChain does. So another twist here is that we need to generate typing specific to the Web3 like blockchain access library so people using Web3.js the API of a smart contract wrapper is slightly different than from etters or from truffle and so on so basically TypeChain gathers all the APIs gathers like the target that you want to use so for example you specify that you use etters and it generates these DTS files for you. So let me show you how this works. So again we would just do the type train and specific target so in this case we want to load target called Web3 because we're using Web3 now etters and then this is a CLI tool that you could make like a post-install book or anything but here we're just going to run it directly so you can see it running good. So basically you specify the target as I mentioned can you see? You specify target and you specify the API files in this case it's just one file but it supports block patterns and so on and so on and basically we can see that we generated some general types for Web3 and here C20 DTS file and now in the code of our application we need an explicit cast for this interface that was generated because it's just impossible to guess like to make a connection between the address that can be random during the compile time with the typing so here we just need something like this explicit cast and voila. Now DAI is your C20 token and balance is big number as you would expect and we're getting proper code competition here so these are all ERC20 plus some others methods that DAI contract has and as well as events should be somewhere here so it supports events as well and so on We can also browse a little bit this typing that was generated so basically you can also see that sometimes it allows us to specify either number or stream because this is what Web3 allows us, Web3.js allows us to do so these typings are really convenient and they are as open as possible like if there are some conversion happening you can see it here as well now we don't have to be super strict about some things if you don't want to Okay so in general type chain works perfectly with any IDE it supports TypeScript, it supports type chain generated wrappers it supports officially three different targets so it's Web3, 1.8 Ather's.js and Truffle it supports custom targets so for example imagine that you're not developing a DAB you're developing a protocol and you want to have a generated library to use by different developers and you want to have come up with your own interface hide some metals, whatever you can generate it automatically by providing your custom target it just takes first API and generates some code and by the way it can generate even code in different languages than TypeScript it's a very general interface and basically then you can just hide implementation details from the users of your library you could swap internal Web3 like blockchain access library without affecting your clients and so on and so on type chain has full ABA version 2 support so you know things like structs things like fallback functions or overridden functions now works now work and it supports events as I've shown before and what's pretty cool that it works with Truffle so we can do smart contract development not DAB development only so here I have this example of simple Solidity contract it's like type Truffle project with some simple Solidity contract and it has some dummy functions we have some tests here and it's super nice now to write this because we have all this code competition so we don't need to guess then the method names you don't need to change files to be sure what's the name of the method and what's cool is that if we introduce a change to the Solidity code like let's say we rename say hello to screen hello and we regenerate or we don't and we regenerate the wrappers we're gonna find automatically without running our tests we're gonna find breaking changes so if you do lots of smart contract development just faster to find breaking changes like this it just saves a lot of time and by the way if you use something like a similar tool to Truffle but using errors it works as well because it can generate better style so recently it's still in beta really I was about to release it today because it works very well people test it in the red but they don't have retirement access here really so basically type train version 1.0 features a few new additions so if you use it before and now the targets are extracted as a separate packages which is much nicer because you can even create your own package your own target without polluting the type train repository the ABI parser is much nicer so you might be wondering why do we have a ABI parser at all so basically we can parse JSON style ABI to something typesafe like discriminated unions in typescript speeds up writing the code generation part a lot and it's just less error prone and basically the architecture of type train now we assemble it with the generator compiler architectures where you have this processing in pipeline so first we parse ABI and then we do code generation and this basically means that code generation is just a group function that takes ABI and returns some strings without AIO and so on so it's as simple as possible and I want to talk a little bit now about ETMTS organization that I created more than one year ago which is like a family for typescript related projects typescript and Ethereum related projects so Arcturg was helping me for a long time and recently joined like as an offshore maintainer and we have more than 20 community contributors to type train just a question how would a type train can help us build a user interface for developers to test our smart contracts Can we return to this question when I'm done because I'm running out of time and we have time for questions at the end so type train is already used by well-known companies like Maker now we find Chainlink and so on so it's not like no type project that one uses it's really used in a while and Gitvine also sponsored like many bounties to inject some cash for external developers to help us with exact issues and basically that's it that's my Twitter handle you can follow me on Twitter if you would like to


As we said before, the strength of dipole-dipole attractions is greater than that of van der Waals forces, but less than that of hydrogen bonds. This means that the boiling points of aldehydes and ketones, which are held together largely by dipole-dipole attractions, are higher than those of alkanes, which are non-polar, and therefore only have van der Waals forces. However, as you see in this table, they are not as high as those of alcohols, which are held together by hydrogen bonds. You can also see that when you compare aldehydes and ketones with the same number of carbons, their boiling points are roughly comparable. Now, why have I compared them by the number of carbons? Why not compare the smallest aldehyde with the smallest ketone? Remember that van der Waals forces, although weak, do have an effect on the boiling point. You see this in the fact that boiling point increases as the carbon chain gets longer. For everything, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, alkanes, as you know. It's therefore inconsistent to compare methanol with propanone, because the larger propanone molecules will have significantly greater van der Waals forces holding them together. Now, solubility, because aldehydes and ketones can form hydrogen bonds with water, the smaller molecules in these groups are miscible in water, like alcohols. As with alcohols though, as the carbon chain lengthens, it becomes less and less favorable for these molecules to be dissolved in water, and so their solubility drops again much like alcohols.
