title: Impressive buyer activity considering the dramatic listing shortage

text:
Compared to April 2016, new listings in the Twin Cities declined 8.3 percent while pending sales decreased 8.5 percent. Given that there were about 20.0 percent fewer homes for sale, a modest decrease in signed purchase agreements compared to last year reflects a shortage of listings and not necessarily declining demand. Days on market is still down and the number of showings per listing rose compared to last April. Buyers are still eager to purchase a home, but supply side constraints are weighing on sales activity. Those shopping for homes have 10,916 properties from which to choose in the metro area, the lowest April reading since 2003.
Low supply and high demand environments tend to drive prices higher. The median sales price rose 6.3 percent from last April to $245,500. Multiple offers on updated, turn-key properties are common in low inventory environments. Properties also tend to sell quickly and for close to or above list price. Average days on market until sale fell 20.5 percent to 58 days compared to 73 in April 2016. It’s worth noting that the median days on market for April was a brisk 21 days—a 10-year record pace. The average percent of original list price received at sale was 99.2 percent, 1.2 percent higher than last year. Similarly, the median percent of original list price received at sale was 100.0 percent, meaning half the sales closed for less than full list price while the other half closed for over list price. The Twin Cities has only 2.2 months of housing supply—the lowest April reading since 2003. Generally, five to six months of supply is considered a balanced market where neither buyers nor sellers have a clear advantage.
“Any agent or house hunter can confirm that buyers are in no way disappearing,” said Cotty Lowry, Minneapolis Area Association of REALTORS® (MAAR) President. “But we are seeing signs that the shortage of listings is starting to hold back our demand indicators such as pending [sales] and closed sales. Despite fewer listings, we still saw more showings per listing.”
A healthy and diverse local economy has been conducive to housing recovery. The most recent national unemployment rate is 4.4 percent, though it’s 3.8 percent locally. The Minneapolis–St. Paul region has a resilient economy with a global reach, a talented workforce, top notch schools and a quality of life that’s enabled one of the highest homeownership rates in the country.
The average 30-year fixed mortgage rate has declined from 4.3 percent to 4.0 percent lately, still well below a long-term average of about 8.0 percent. Excluding any surprising data or events, the Federal Reserve is likely to increase their target federal funds rate at least once more this year. Wage and inventory growth are key to offsetting affordability declines brought on by higher rates.
“The shortage of supply in our market is showing up in several ways beyond price gains, quick markets times and multiple offers,” said Kath Hammerseng, MAAR President-Elect. “Additional inventory is key to sustaining our housing recovery and is critical to maintaining a healthy and accessible marketplace.”
All information is according to the Minneapolis Area Association of REALTORS® (MAAR) based on data from NorthstarMLS. MAAR is the leading regional advocate and provider of information services and research on the real estate industry for brokers, real estate professionals and the public.

Master’s Degree in Social Work (M.S.W.)
The Faculty of Social Work » Master’s Degree in Social Work (M.S.W.)Curriculum Objectives
The curriculum expands social workers’ theoretical, empiric and practical knowledge while providing a broad and critical perspective on the needs of the individual, the family, the community, society, and social services. The focus is placed on enhancing the level of professionalism by developing care skills and a broader, deeper understanding of the types of social and personal problems that a social worker is likely to encounter.
This curriculum expands general professional knowledge and provides students with advanced interventional capabilities. It aims to promote skilled social workers, provide them with senior status, and train them to drive and activate processes to serve challenging and diverse populations.
The syllabus comprises three compulsory units: seminar and practicum, skills enrichment, elderly individuals and their families; and diverse electives. As part of their studies, students must work (paid or voluntary) as social workers in recognized organizations at least half a day per week: during the first year, in the field of the elderly; and during the second year, in general care.
Additionally, students must participate in practicum and produce a seminar paper, one in the field of elderly issues and the other in advanced care. Both are based on materials surfacing in the field.
Points of interest
Leading lecturers and researchers
A unique field focusing on the diverse stages of the life cycle, with focus on the elderly
Systemic perspective geared to qualify graduates for senior roles in public, community and individual services

Fall is here, which means it’s time to
prepare for brisk weather and changing leaves. It’s also time to enjoy pumpkin
spice lattes, apple cider and the other delicious flavors we associate with
fall. And these wonderful reminders of the season are only one step away when
you grow seasonal spices right on your kitchen counter top.
You don’t need a yard to cultivate a garden — you can have
it all indoors.
To “pumpkin spice” your home, all you need to do is pick
your favorite fall-scented plants, find a space and choose your growing medium;
soil, coco coir, sand, gravel or water.
Almost any plant can be grown indoors, as long as the
growing environment is suited to the plant’s needs. And you’re not limited to
herbs that love cold weather. Common herbs such as dill, parsley and rosemary
thrive under grow lights and can provide flavorful flair all year long.
Starting an indoor fall herb garden is simple. Maintaining a
healthy growing environment is the key to success. Read these tips from Associa and Sunlight Supply to get started.
Five Steps to Indoor Gardening Success
1. Let there be light. The type of lighting
needed in any indoor gardening system depends on the type of plants you
want to grow. Large fruiting and flowering plants need more intense light
compared to herbs.
2. Don’t let it dry out. A clean source of water
is required to grow indoors. For the best results, regularly monitor and test water
and soil pH levels.
3. Get settled. Regulating indoor
factors including heat, humidity and CO2 keeps plants alive. CO2 that
plants use during photosynthesis is important so exhaust fans and air
filtration systems are critical.
4. Feed and repeat. Plants grown indoors will need an extra boost of fertilizer
since most of the nutrients in the soil or growing medium are quickly eaten by
the roots. Choose organic if you’re growing something you will eat.
5. Get to the root of it. A healthy root zone
is the key to strong plants. Well-draining soil or soil-less mix allows oxygen
to flow through. When combined with air pumps, stones and diffusers, your
system will be complete.
Now you’re ready to grow! Bring the pumpkin spice craze to
your kitchen counter-top by simmering these combinations in a crock-pot or on
the stove. Just add water.
Homemade Simmer-Pot Recipes
• Sliced oranges, cranberries, cloves and cinnamon
• Apple peels, cinnamon and nutmeg
• Lavender, nutmeg, cloves and cinnamon
• Lemon, rosemary and vanilla
Indoor gardening allows you to enjoy the cozy smell of fall
indoors. For more tips on how to start your own hydroponic garden, visit sunlightsupply.com.

title: 29870 herbs and lyme protocol

text:
Hello Everybody, I've just started the Protocol Starting Procedure. Stopped all of my supplements which a lot of them were antioxidants but my question is about herbs. I've been taking Teasel Root tincture, Milk Thistle and also Cistus Incanus (herb that I brew). I've been diagnosed with Lyme May 2015 but I know I've had it for years. Anybody has any suggestions, I did not find anything about herbs for Lyme and MMS protocol. Thanks.
I took teasel root and milk thistle during the protocol and didn't notice any loss in efficiency, both from the herbs or the MMS. Can't vouch for Cistus though, but it seems a safe assumption that it won't interfere either.
To be on the safe side, you might want to take them out of the daily protocol.
Just be warned that Lyme is a very complex and resilient disease, which will require patience and discipline, especially if you had it for a long time. However, MMS works wonder on this one, just be very thorough with your diet, and you might also want to add probiotics.
Thank you, I do take probiotics, have been for a while. Any opinions on vit D? I have a deficiency and have been taking pretty high dose (10 000) so now I am a bit confused as to what to do, stop like my other supplements or continue. Thanks again.

title: Workshop pantheism versus personhood in classical german philosophy utrecht 19 june 2025

text:
We are pleased to give notice of the workshop Pantheism versus Personhood in Classical German Philosophy, which will take place on June 9th, at the Protestant Theological University of Utrecht.
The event is organized by Ariën Voogt (PThU, Utrecht) and Vittorio Alves (KU Leuven).
For registration, please email: email@example.com
Below you can find a general presentation of the event and the list of the speakers.
For further information, please visit the workshop website.
Following the explosion that was the 1780s Pantheism Controversy, the issue of pantheism and its philosophical implications became a focal point of Classical German Philosophy. In the footsteps of Lessing, a new generation of thinkers – Goethe, Herder, Schleiermacher, Schelling, Hegel – enthusiastically embraced a pantheistic conception of God as hen kai pan (one and all), sparking an intense debate on the place of the human person within an encompassing absolute whole – be it nature or the absolute I. This apparent tension between the finite person and the pantheistic whole provoked a diverse set of issues and responses. Does the rejection of human personhood follow from the rejection of a personal God? Should we embrace depersonal unification with the divine All as a theoretical, spiritual or practical ideal? Is a personal God required to safeguard human freedom and individuality and to avoid nihilism? Can human and divine personhood survive in a totalizing philosophical system?
In this workshop, we will focus on systematic responses to the tension between person and pantheism within Classical German Philosophy, with a particular focus on Schelling, Jacobi, and Fichte. The purpose of the workshop is to explore this theme from a variety of angles, benefiting from international expertise on different key figures during a small-scale, intensive in-person event. We have chosen to examine the concept of personhood specifically, as it illuminates the connection between conceptions of God and the human being. This approach may better pinpoint the core issues in the debate on pantheism than, say, the concept of freedom, which is championed on all sides of the debate. Our aim is to pay particular attention to religious and existential aspects, as questions surrounding immanence and transcendence and the purpose of the human person deeply inform the philosophical debate on pantheism, and may reveal what is truly at stake in it.

Empire, c. 2016How do you reconfigure the sky? On the evening of July 25, 1964, Andy Warhol and Jonas Mekas began filming the Empire State building from the offices of the Rockefeller Foundation on the 41st floor of the Time-Life Building. They filmed continuously, from 8:06 p.m. until 2:42 a.m., shooting at a rate of 24 frames per second. However, the resulting film, called Empire, is 89 minutes longer than their original footage: Empire is supposed to be projected at a rate of 16 frames per second, giving it a run time of 8 hours and 5 minutes.
When not wholly dismissed (“a ‘film,’” wrote one contemporary critic, “arrogant in its disregard for any conceivable variety of public taste”), Empire is often valued for its use of time: The nearly static image of the Empire State Building highlights the minute changes on screen that mark time passing, and the occasional flares and white flashes that occur as a result of the developing process stress that film is a temporal medium. Warhol himself said he made Empire “to see time go by.” I see it differently: not time going by, but gone by. True, the film does happen in real time, staging for the viewer an immediate experience, but it also captures an image from almost a half-century ago, a distance made all the more evident given the subsequent changes in the New York skyline. In 1964, the Empire State Building was not only the tallest building in New York, but also the tallest building in the world. In 1972, with the completion of the North Tower of the World Trade Center, it lost that status. On September 11, 2001, after the terrorist attacks and the collapse of the Twin Towers, it again became the tallest building in the city, but no longer the world. Seen in this continuum, Empire becomes an experience of mediated time. It centers a history that predates its creation and continues after any viewing of it. (In 2014, One World Trade Center became the tallest building in New York, though not the world.) Time here is both retro- and prospective, gone by in a world that goes on. Empire, like footage of the Twin Towers before the attacks, haunts a future that hasn’t happened. Or has. |


title: Jsca election must be transparent and free from official interference babulal writes to cm

text:
Ranchi: Leader of Opposition Babulal Marandi has written a letter to Chief Minister Hemant Soren urging him to ensure a free and fair election process in the Jharkhand State Cricket Association (JSCA) by preventing administrative interference. The election is scheduled for May 18, with nominations set for May 12 and 13, and withdrawal on May 14.
Concerns Over Administrative Involvement in Election
Marandi highlighted that the election is gradually turning into a display of administrative misuse rather than a democratic sports body election. He alleged that government officers are openly canvassing for certain candidates and misusing their official status, influence, and resources to manipulate the election outcome.
Impact on Sports Integrity
The JSCA is a prestigious sports body of the state, and Marandi emphasized that preserving its integrity is a collective responsibility. He warned that if such interference is not stopped immediately, both the reputation and quality of Jharkhand cricket would be at risk.
History of Power Misuse in JSCA Elections
According to Marandi, previous JSCA elections were also plagued by abuse of power that promoted nepotism, casteism, and regionalism, damaging the morale of deserving players. He added that such control has led to misuse of the association’s assets and resources, with a few individuals holding onto power for years and turning the association into a hub of corruption.
Key Demands Made by Babulal Marandi to the CM:
Immediate halt to any misuse of official power, position, or government resources in the election process.
Strict action against government officials involved in influencing the outcome of the election.
Ensure tight security and law-and-order measures on the voting day so members can cast their votes without fear.
The election must be held under the supervision of the Election Commission or a neutral independent agency to guarantee transparency and fairness.

Study on an indirect solar dryer for drying sliced bitter gourd using PCM
Solar dryers, bitter gourd, solar dryer, PCM, sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate, inorganic salt, solar dryer performanceAbstract
Solar dryers are of significant importance in the food industry since they facilitate the preservation of various edible products, including cereals, vegetables, and fish, by effectively extracting moisture from products. In the current study, an indirect type cabinet solar dryer had been constructed to dry the bitter gourd pieces. To enhance the efficacy of the solar dryer during late evening hours, an inorganic salt, sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate (Na2S2O3. 5H2O) serving as a phase changing material (PCM), was incorporated into the collecting area of the dryer. The study examined the process parameters, including the moisture ratio, dryer inlet temperature and the outlet temperature, for the dehydration of sliced bitter gourds in two scenarios: an indirect solar dryer without phase change material (IDSD), and a solar dryer with PCM (IDSD-PCM). The experiment involved maintaining a constant mass flow rate of air at 0.07 kg/s, while operating the dryer for a duration of nine hours in an experimental day. The findings obtained were evaluated, and the impact of incorporating PCM into the indirect solar dryer was examined and reported. The findings of the study indicated that the inclusion of PCM inside the collecting area had a substantial impact on the temperature of the drying chamber, particularly during the late evening hours. Furthermore, the utilization of PCM resulted in a notable increase of 5.1% per day in the proportion of moisture extracted from sliced bitter gourds.

I’m new to LVM and want to be able to boot from the fuze drive and take advantage of lvmcache.
I seem to run into errors when attempting to let the OS installer create partitions and errors when i manually create the partitions.
I’m trying to install Manjaro 21.1.5 on the 1.6TB model of the fuze drive
LVM and linux GURU’s please help me.
I think i pebcak’d was getting failed to Create a new partition table (type:gpt) on ‘/dev/VG’
I was able to install Manjaro, but the partitions are misaligned.
@wendell I would like to ask if you only present the drive for the video, or if you was actually using it, because based on Facebook page it already failed for most people (that was using it.
Mine reports this:
90% is lowest among drives I have and some are ~10 years old.
For me the “critical” failure is that the driver stopped working without a warning and accessing the data is not possible. I was able to recover the data using 3rd party SW, after I gave up waiting for support to respond, after reading that many people trying to reach them for months now with 0 success.
Does anyone have any suggestion what to do with the most expensive drive I have (at the time of delivery it was possible to get 4 TB NVME for cheaper).
Did anyone have a copy of beta software for windows?
The windows store version always had issues keeping AI feature enabled and was buggy.
I got a test version which resolved all the issues but it never made it to release on the windows store and with Enmotus now out of business, sucks I cant use my drive anymore after reinstall.
Any Luck with this?
I have had a full license for a long time and mine stopped working out of nowhere
I know the company is closed so I, as well, am wondering if I can somehow get it enabled again while I am still using this PC I originally had it registered for

The festivities begin for me tonight at 6 p.m. with a bottle of Saki and a roll of Eel, but before the debauchery is kicked off, I would just like to take a moment to remind everyone of what has been accomplished by this administration in just the last two weeks.
If you encounter family members over the holidays who are unsure about President Obama, Harry Reid, or Nancy Pelosi, you can point out to them that during this lame duck session of congress, they have accomplished more than some administrations accomplish during their entire term in office.
START has been passed
DADT has been repealed
Food Safety Law passed
Healthcare for 9/11 first responders passed
One year extension of unemployment benefits passed
Extension of tax cuts for the middle class passed
Funding of the government passed -This should be a given but it isn't.
It should be noted that the tax cut compromise, while not perfect, allowed for the extension of unemployment benefits and continued tax cuts for the middle class. That compromise more than likely also enabled the passing of the new START and the repeal of DADT.
Nothing is perfect, but causing Republicans from coast to coast to go on the TeeVees and complain about being walked all over by Reid and Pelosi well, that's nearly perfect. And remember -we did not nationalize the banks, the healthcare industry, the auto industry, or the internets. John McCain needs to change his depends, gays have been showering with you all along, and the motto was "Yes we can" not "Yes I can." That should cover just about everything.
Have a happy holiday everyone, and dont shoot your eye out.

Muncie, Ind. – The 2020-21 school year is going to be different than any previous year, and Muncie Community Schools (MCS) is holding two events to help families get children registered for classes. Administrators will also be available to answer any questions about new building protocols due to COVID-19.
The public is invited to visit any of the district’s nine area schools to enroll students in MCS’ traditional in-person program or new virtual learning program on these two dates:
- Tuesday, July 14 – 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
- Thursday, July 16 – 1 to 6 p.m.
Social distancing protocols will be in place at each school. Parents or guardians should come prepared with pertinent information, including proof of residency, student birth certificates and immunization records. The entire registration process typically takes less than 10 minutes. Incoming kindergarten students will also be asked to complete a brief screening test for class placement.
“Most of our families enroll students online, but there are also a lot who like to register in person, especially if they are new to the district,” MCS Director of Public Education and CEO Lee Ann Kwiatkowski said. “We are happy to accommodate everyone and look forward to answering questions about our reopening plan.”
MCS released its Reopening Plan last week. It details all of the changes being implemented to keep students and MCS staff safe.
Online registration is ongoing and can be done at https://enrollinmcs.org.
For more information about the school system overall, please visit muncieschools.org.

HOLLYSHORTS 2020 FILM FESTIVAL REVIEW! In Red Light, Green Light, a man works in a creepy warehouse while something may be stalking him.
Josh (Todd Denson) finds himself working alone in a warehouse with creepy mannequin heads all over the place. To top it off, the lights keep flickering off and on. He gradually gets the feeling that something is watching him… turns out he is right. A creepy-looking mannequin-like woman (Gina Bishop) chases Josh around the warehouse while finding a new pose every time the lights flicker back on. Can Josh escape, or is he doomed?
“A creepy looking mannequin-like woman chases Josh around the warehouse…”
What is clear about Red Light, Green Light is that it has good production values and a talented crew behind it. The scare factor is there with the help of the special effects. Gina Bishop, as the woman, captures the essence of something you want to run from. There does seem to be a slightly comedic aspect to the short, but it does not outweigh the horror theme that is going on.
I had to watch this short film more than once to understand what was going on. I get that a man was being chased by some zombie-like mannequin lady, but I was unsure what she was and why she was doing it. After looking at the credits, I began to put everything together. The woman was a former employee of the month, but you would not get that unless you are a person that pays attention to the end credits.
Normally, most people do not pay attention to the end credits, so this aspect of Red Light, Green Light may slip right by. If it does, the irony of the film will also be missed.
Red Light, Green Light screened at the 2020 Hollyshorts Film Festival.
"…captures the essence of something you want to run from."

Aer (/ɛə/ from Latin: aer, meaning air) is a lightweight, OpenSource, general-purpose, object-oriented scripting programming
language suited also for web development as well as embedded environments. It implements a highly-efficient bytecode compiler
and a virtual machine. The term Aer is used interchangeably with AerScript. Its syntax draws upon C++, C#, Java and PHP.
Aer is the ideal language interpreter for writing enhanced web applications like blog, CMS, search engine, etc. or
embedded solutions with dynamic web interfaces like routers, set-top-boxes, or smart home solutions. Aer Interpreter
is based on PH7 Engine and thus it is 100% hand-coded, written in pure C software, that compiles unmodified and runs
on any platform including restricted embedded device with a C compiler.
The core syntax of Aer language is similar to that of other C-style languages such as C++, C#, Java or PHP. In particular:
- Semicolons are used to denote the end of a statement.
- Curly brackets are used to group statements. Statements are commonly grouped into methods (functions), methods into
classes, and classes into namespaces.
- Variables are assigned using an equals sign, but compared using two consecutive equals signs.
- Square brackets are used with arrays, both to declare them and to get a value at a given index in one of them.
Full Aer Specification can be found on the Wiki Pages.
AerScript - Modern PHP
Despite, that Aer syntax draws among others upon PHP, it is not fully compatible with it. Aer is a modern, pure Object-Oriented
Language. The distinctive features and powerful extensions to the PHP programming language are:
- Strict, full OOP,
- Method overloading,
- Strict, full type hinting,
- Introducing comma expressions,
- Improved operator precedences,
- 64-bit integer arithmetic for all platforms,
- Smart exception mechanism,
- Native UTF-8 support,
- Built-in standard library and extensions support,
- Garbage Collected via Advanced Reference Counting,
- Correct and consistent implementation of the ternary operator,
- Consistent Boolean evaluation,
- Introducing the $_HEADER superglobal array which holds all HTTP MIME headers.
64-Bit Integer Arithmetic For All Platforms
Unless most scripting and programming languages, Aer have standardized the size of an integer and is always stored in 8 bytes
regardless of the host environment. Because there is no cross-platform way to specify 64-bit integer types Aer includes typedefs
for 64-bit signed integers. Thanks to that, integers can store values between -9223372036854775808 and +9223372036854775807
inclusive, both on 32-bit and on 64-bit host OS.
Native UTF-8 Support
Aer has builtin native support for UTF-8 characters. That is, you are not restricted to use only plain-English to name variables
or methods. Any UTF-8 encoded natural language can be used without the need for ICU or any other internationalization package.
The reason why performance rocks under AerScript and its PH7 Engine relies in the fact that is a hand-coded project. That is,
Aer does not use any external tools to generate it's lexical analyzer such as lex or flex, nor does not use LALR(1) parsers such
as Bison or YACC to generate it's parser. By acting so, the lexer and the parser are thread-safe, full re-entrant, generate
better error message, takes less space in the source tree and are easier to maintain.
Aer is written in C. It compiles and runs unmodified on any platform including restricted embedded device with a C compiler.
The PH7 Engine have been extensively tested under Windows and UNIX including Linux and FreeBSD. If you have successfully compiled
and tested Aer in an exotic environment or a proprietary UNIX, please let us know.
Aer is a multi-platform software, that can be built on any Operating System. On Unix-like. macOS and Cygwin it is as
easy as to fetch the source code and issue single command:
Above command will build a Aer interpreter with all its SAPI and modules with debug information or basic release optimization,
depending on the chosen option. All object files produced by compiler and binaries, produced by linker will appear in ./build/
On Windows, it is required to install MingW32 or MingW64 to build the Aer Interpreter using Makefile. However, it is also possible
to use other C compiler, especially MSVC.
While doing our best, we know there are still a lot of obscure bugs in AerScript. To help us make Aer the stable and solid
product we want it to be, we need bug reports and bug fixes. If you can't fix a bug yourself and submit a fix for it, try
to report an as detailed report. When reporting a bug, you should include all information that will help us understand what's
wrong, what you expected to happen and how to repeat the bad behavior. You therefore need to tell us:
- your operating system's name and version
- what version of Aer Interpreter you're using
- anything and everything else you think matters.
Tell us what you expected to happen, what did happen and how you could make it work another way. Dig around, try out and test.
Then, please include all the tiny bits and pieces in your report. You will benefit from this, as it will enable us to help you
quicker and more accurately.
Aer and the PH7 Engine are OpenSource projects. That is, the complete source code of the engine, interpreter, language
specification, the official documentation and related utilities are available to download. Aer is licensed under the
GNU General Public License v3.0 with a permission of Symisc Systems

Sclerosis en plaques, disseminated sclerosis
What is it?
It is a slowly progressive disease of the Central Nervous System characterized by disseminated patches of demyelinization (loss of the substance – myelin- that insulates the nerves) in the brain and spinal cord, prompting multiple, varied symptoms and neurological signs, with periods of remissions and exacerbations, making controversial the diagnosis, the prognosis and the effectiveness of the medications.
What is the cause?
The causes are unknown; however, studies focus on causes such as immunologica abnormalities, including infection produced by a slow or latent virus, and myelinolysis by enzymes.
Family incidence observations suggest genetic susceptibility, and women are somewhat more affected than men.
Currently, there is a larger number of cases than in the 50s, and onset of symptoms occurs between the ages of 20 and 40, the disease being less prevalent and incident in warm climates, occurring more commonly in mild climates.
What does one feel?
Patients report visual problems, speech, walking, balance and strength disorders, transient weakness at the onset of the disease, in one or more extremities, numbness, with periods of remissions and exarcebations. When the spinal cord is involved, the motor, sensitive and sphincter manifestations are generally present, while pain is rare.
The evolution is unpredictable and highly varied. At the beginning, there may be long periods of months or years elapsing between two episodes, but the intervals tend to diminish and, occasionally, occurs the progressive and permanent incapacitation. Some patients become rapidly incapacited. In patients with middle-age onset the progression is rapid, without remission and, sometimes, fatal – within one year only.
How is the diagnosis made?
The likely and possible diagnosis will depend on the experience of the neurologist who, aided by paraclinical pertinent tests, such as: magnetic resonance imaging, cerebrospinal fluid, evoked potentials, among others, will get to the diagnosis without virtually requiring the anatomopathologic test.
What is the treatment?
As to the treatment, in addition to general healthcare, physiotherapy and psychotherapy are recommended.


title: Forex account management strategies you should know in 2024

text:
Forex account management strategies play a crucial role in optimizing returns and minimizing risks while managing forex accounts of clients or investors. With diverse approaches available, these strategies cater to individual goals and risk tolerances, enabling traders and managers to align their methods effectively. In this article, we will outline the key strategies and how to implement them successfully.
Key Forex Account Management Strategies for 2024
Here is a list of forex account management strategies for forex account managers in 2024.
Understand Your Risk Tolerance and Goals
Before diving into the market, assess your financial goals and risk tolerance. This step forms the foundation of effective Forex account management strategies. Are you aiming for steady, incremental gains or high-risk, high-reward outcomes?
Defining your objectives ensures that your trading approach aligns with your financial situation and emotional capacity to handle losses.
Risk Management Strategies
Effective risk management is the cornerstone of all successful Forex account management strategies. It involves setting stop-loss orders, limiting trade sizes, and diversifying portfolios to reduce exposure.
Setting stop-loss orders to limit potential losses. These orders automatically close a trade once it reaches a predetermined loss level. By using stop-loss orders, you protect your account from significant losses and maintain control over your trading activities.
Additionally, traders should allocate only a small percentage of their capital to each trade, ensuring long-term sustainability.
Diversification is essential for spreading risk across different currency pairs and asset classes, and also a vital component of successful account management. A balanced portfolio includes a mix of high-risk, high-reward trades alongside stable, low-volatility options.
Spreading your investments across various currency pairs reduces the impact of unexpected market movements. For instance, rather than placing all your capital into one trade, allocate smaller portions to multiple trades. This strategy helps mitigate losses and stabilize overall performance, hence increases the chances of consistent returns.
Using leverage wisely is another vital component of Forex account management strategies. While leverage amplifies potential profits, it also increases risk. Experienced managers limit leverage levels based on market conditions and client risk appetite, ensuring sustainable growth.
Automated Trading Systems
Automation is gaining traction in forex account management, enabling faster execution of trades and consistent application of strategies. Automated systems, powered by algorithms, help eliminate emotional decision-making while providing data-driven insights.
Maintain a Trading Journal
Keeping a detailed trading journal is another essential practice for managing your Forex account. Record every trade, including entry and exit points, reasons for the trade, and the outcome.
Reviewing your journal helps identify patterns, refine strategies, and avoid repeating mistakes. Over time, this habit sharpens your decision-making and improves overall performance.
Overtrading is a common mistake that undermines Forex account management strategies. It often stems from emotional reactions to wins or losses. To prevent this, stick to a well-defined trading plan and avoid impulsive decisions. Trading less frequently but with higher precision can yield better results than frequent, unfocused trades.
Regular Performance Evaluation
Monitoring and analyzing performance is integral to improving Forex account management strategies. Managers should review key metrics, such as return on investment (ROI), win rate, and drawdowns, to refine their approaches and adapt to changing market conditions.
Stay Updated on Market Trends
Keeping up with market news and trends is critical for informed decision-making. Use reputable sources to monitor economic indicators, geopolitical events, and central bank policies.
These factors significantly influence currency movements and can impact your trading strategy. Staying informed allows you to adjust your trades accordingly and seize profitable opportunities.
Good management strategies are essential for achieving financial goals and navigating the complexities of forex trading. Hence, mastering Forex account management strategies is essential for achieving consistent success in the business of forex account management.
From effective risk management to automation, each of the listed strategy offers unique benefits for traders and investors. Avoid overtrading and stick to your plan, ensuring your journey remains focused and profitable.
By leveraging these strategies effectively, and implementing them, you not only protect your investments, but also optimize performance and build a sustainable forex management portfolio.

title: Nfl blind sided by federal judges decision

text:
A federal judge’s decision last week to extend an injunction, allowing several NFL players to continue to compete for their respective teams despite testing positive for a banned substance could have significant ramifications for the NFL and its drug testing policy.
The NFL has always clung to the notion that players are responsible for what they put in their bodies, even if the banned substance is part of an otherwise legal supplement. This “strict liability” stance has even been agreed to by the NFLPA in the Collective Bargaining Agreement.
“Strict liability” is common with drug testing policies in international and professional sports, Matt Mitten, the Director of the National Sports law Institute, told Sports Litigation Alert.
But in the decision at hand, District Judge Paul A. Magnuson found that the NFL may have breached its duty to the players because it had enough evidence that the dietary supplement StarCaps contained the banned diuretic bumetanide, and that that information should have been disclosed.
In actuality, the NFL did warn the players that dietary supplements may contain banned supplements. “One of the questions for the court is whether than warning was specific enough, especially since the league apparently had actual knowledge about StarCaps,” said Mitten.
The court, however, seemed to find that the warning was too general. “Suspending a player for testing positive for a banned substance when there are such substantial questions about the facts and circumstances surrounding the specific supplement at issue irreparably harms the player,” Magnuson wrote.
The dispute began when Jeffrey Pash, the NFL’s chief legal counsel, suspended Kevin Williams and Pat Williams of the Minnesota Vikings as well as Charles Grant, Deuce McAllister and Will Smith of the New Orleans Saints after they tested positive for bumetanide.
The plaintiffs appealed the ruling. But their claim was denied in an arbitration hearing, presided over by Pash.
The plaintiffs ultimately sued, naming Dr. John Lombardo, administrator of the league’s steroid policy; Dr. Bryan Finkle, a consulting toxicologist; and Adolpho Birch, vice president of law and labor policy for the NFL, who oversees the policy. All three men report to Pash.
After issuing a temporary injunction on December 5, Magnuson took a closer look at the legal issues, focusing, not only on whether the NFL should have disclosed what it knew about the banned substance, but also on whether Pash’s role in the matter could have been deemed impartial.
“The NFLPA has succeeded in establishing that a substantial question exists as to whether Mr. Pash’s connection to the allegations in this case prejudicially affected the award,” wrote the court. “Although Mr. Pash’s decisions are well reasoned, he glossed over the rather shocking allegations the NFLPA makes. Moreover, he did not take into account Lombardo’s testimony that, even if asked about StarCaps in particular, he would merely warn the player away from supplements in general. Such testimony calls into question the very basis of the NFL’s position on banned substances. The NFL maintains that its strict liability policy is fair in part because players may contact either Lombardo or the Hotline with questions about specific supplements. If players cannot get answers to their questions, however, they cannot determine which supplements are permissible and which are not.
“While it is true that the NFL discourages the use of all weight-loss supplements, such supplements are not forbidden and the players reasonably expect to rely on the advice of Lombardo and the Hotline with respect to such substances. Mr. Pash’s failure to take Lombardo’s testimony into account is substantial evidence that the arbitration award was prejudiced by Mr. Pash’s partiality. The NFLPA is entitled to a preliminary injunction to preserve the status quo until a full hearing can be held on the issue of Mr. Pash’s partiality and the effect of any partiality on the arbitration awards at issue.”
Mitten said the fact that Pash would be an arbitrator is unusual in agreements between unions and leagues. “This will absolutely be a negotiating issue when the CBA is up,” he said.
Opinions, predictably, varied on the impact of the decision.
Stephen Ross, director of Penn State’s Institute for Sports Law, suggested to the media that the court’s decision was “terrible in that any decision by an in-house arbitrator is subject to challenge in federal court, and it’s almost impossible to adopt a strict liability policy.
“Its way more important for the league to get the decision reversed than prohibiting guys who are probably unfair victims from playing football,” he added.
Dennis Devaney, a Detroit-area labor lawyer and former member of the National Labor Relations Board, was optimistic that the league would ultimately succeed, telling the Minneapolis Star-Tribune that “the policy may well be upheld because it arises out of the essence of a collective bargaining agreement, that the federal courts shouldn’t be allowed to fiddle around with.”
NFL spokesman Greg Aiello issued a cautious statement from the league: “This is consistent with the approach the judge has taken in giving careful consideration to these issues, which we fully respect.”

This study aims to explore the effects of TSH levels on insulin signal transduction in adipocytes and to establish the role of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in this process. In this study, the SCH mouse model was established, and 3T3-L1 adipocytes were treated with TSH or tunicamycin (TM), with or without 4-phenylbutyric acid (4-PBA), an inhibitor of ER stress. Subclinical hypothyroidism mice exhibited impaired glucose tolerance, inactivation of the IRS-1/AKT pathway, and activation of the IRE1/JNK pathway in adipose tissue, which can all be alleviated by 4-PBA. Supplementation with levothyroxine restored the TSH to normal, alongside alleviated ER stress and insulin resistance in SCH mice, which is characterized by improved glucose tolerance, decreased mRNA expression of IRE1, and decreased phosphorylation of JNK in adipose tissue. In 3T3-L1 adipocytes, TSH induces insulin resistance, leading to a decrease in glucose uptake. This effect is mediated by the downregulation of IRS-1 tyrosine phosphorylation, reduced AKT phosphorylation, and inhibited GLUT4 protein expression. Notably, all these effects can be effectively reversed by 4-PBA. Moreover, TSH induced TNF-α and IL-6 production and upregulated the expression of ER stress markers. Similarly, these changes can be recovered by 4-PBA. These findings indicate that TSH has the capability to induce insulin resistance in adipocytes. The mechanism through which TSH disrupts insulin signal transduction appears to involve the ER stress–JNK pathway.

title: University of texas at arlington to lead 1 6m digital learning research effort

Researchers at the University of Texas at Arlington has been chosen to lead a $1.6 million effort to better understand digital learning's effect on higher education today and in the future, school officials announced.
The Learning Innovation and Networked Knowledge (LINK) Lab has been chosen to coordinate the new Digital Learning Research Network (dLRN), which is funded by a grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. As part of the project, Link Lab Executive Director George Siemens will coordinate work between UT Arlington and nine additional institutions, including Carnegie Mellon University, Stanford University, Teachers College Columbia University, the Smithsonian Institution, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, and others.
The aim of the grant is to close a gap that has existed between digital learning research and its impact on practice, as well as amplifying the breadth and depth of research being conducted. This effort will benefit universities who are making the transition to digital learning and learners from groups traditionally underrepresented in higher education.
"UT Arlington is a recognized leader in digital learning, and we are committed to fostering robust research as to how technology can be leveraged to help all learners realize their dreams," UT Arlington President Vistasp Karbhari said in a statement. "The Digital Learning Research Network combines those two aims. It puts UT Arlington at the center of a vital global conversation about the future of higher education."
Siemen said the research project will address the barriers to digital learning and articulate the conditions needed for all learners to succeed, better their own lives and participate in the global economy.
Some of the areas to be addressed by research include: competency-based learning; learning analytics; growth of higher education globally; learning at scale and Massive Open Online Courses or MOOCs; personalization and adaptation; and credentialing and accreditation through digital programs.
"Contrary to a popular narrative that higher education is not innovating, there is world-leading activity in teaching, learning and technology happening on campuses across the U.S. Unfortunately, this innovation often doesn't make it outside of research labs. With dLRN, we aim to change this," Siemens said.
The new $1.6 million grant is part of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation's Postsecondary Success Strategy, which aims to dramatically increase the number of young adults who complete postsecondary education.

As I read that quote, by John Jay, I realize that Obama is a great pretender (as if I hadn't realized that before). His motive is not to protect America, or even to defend people that have been wrongly attacked (wrongly in his opinion). Barack Obama has shown time and time again that his motives are always for himself, not America, and not for any oppressed people.
What is the answer to the question? Any question? In the case of Obama, the answer is not logical, or sensible, or even consistent with his past decisions or attitudes. The answer is always whatever Barack Obama feels benefits him the most at the moment.
Remember, this President received the Nobel Peace Prize because of his anti-war rhetoric against George W. Bush, of which the democrats had succeeded in demonizing to the point that even the world came to hate Dubya. Yet, here he is, proposing war, with evidence (and a situation) similar to that of Bush's Iraq. And in the case of Syria, it may be even more volatile, than Iraq. Big Ears did it in Libya, as well, though the interference was more subtle than what he plans in Syria.
Isn't that amazing? Have you ever seen a Nobel Peace Prize recipient that wanted to be a war mongerer. . . and in this case to satisfy his own narcissistic desires?
I can speculate on Obama's motive, from him wanting to align with the same people that flew planes into our twin towers, to his deconstructionist view of America which fuels his desire to make America look weak, but in the end, regardless of the motive, his moves are very dangerous, to the nation as a whole, and to the entire Middle East. He is sitting on a keg of black powder, and he is trying to insert into the barrel a lit fuse.
