The review means a pause on approving all supervised consumption and treatment sites.ĭespite opening April 26, Windsor’s SafePoint still has not been approved for provincial funding. The government launched the review after the July 7 death of Karolina Huebner-Makurat, 44, who was struck by a stray bullet while walking near a consumption site in Toronto’s east end. ![]() Michael Tibollo, Ontario’s associate minister of mental health and addictions, said this week the province is halting approval of new supervised consumption and treatment centres pending a “critical incident review.” But yes, all options are going to be on the table.”Ĭity councillor Fabio Constante speaks during a press conference on Friday, Octoat the Windsor-Essex Health Unit regarding the SafePoint Consumption and Treatment Service site. I don’t want to speak for the decision right now. ![]() “Certainly, it’s going to be a decision that the board of health is going to have to make. “All options are on the table because it’s not sustainable from our vantage point on the financial side to continue operating in the absence of provincial funding,” said Costante, also Windsor’s Ward 2 city councillor. It’s “too premature” to commit to keeping SafePoint open, he said. If the money doesn’t flow soon, health board chairman Fabio Costante said Friday the health unit will face some difficult decisions. ![]() ![]() So, the resulting search competition on phones and laptops is alive-and fierce. We’re in an era when search knows that we often don’t know what we are searching for, but we do want to be informed and entertained. Windows just added “news and interests” to the Taskbar so you are led to results in Edge and Bing. On your phone, Apple and Google feature news and articles chosen “for you” by algorithm. Search is now in its “millennial years,” having grown up and integrating multiple sides of its personality even as it fragments. Search in that process became less like a door and more like an escalator in a department store-even like the elevator operator of old who’d announce the products available on each floor as he opened doors to let passengers off to discover “ladies’ lingerie” or “men’s suitings.” Then, search itself as a tool and as a behavior had to change as the web became the one place where we go to express our ideas, pursue future love, reinforce our friendships, build our professional networks, and look for and buy food, clothing-and even shelter. (Remember Richard Saul Wurman, the man who created TED, analyzing “Information Anxiety” in the dawning hours of the Information Age? Full disclosure: I worked with Richard in the late 80s and early 90s). Search started as an inquiry for information. Where once we’d simply “look stuff up,” when the web became our central marketplace we learned to carve off how we searched in ways that gave us more options than any single search engine could because our searches evolved to become less about facts and figures and more about getting into the specific areas that interested us most. Eventually, search became more a part of the journey and not just a means of conveyance, not simply a first stop on our way outward. Once upon a time, when Google entered the game, search was an elegant door to search for facts and information. ![]() Over time, as searchers became more “consumers” than “users,” the place searched occupied in our lives broadened. take place on Microsoft sites and 11% on Verizon Media sites. More than 25% of monthly digital searches on desktop in the U.S. Other players have also been claiming their share of the search market for years. From 2020 to 2021 alone, product searches on the platform grew more than 20x year over year. ![]() When Pinterest introduced Visual Search and Reverse Image search, it set itself up for a solid Google-free future where the platform would host 5 billion searches per month. Google years ago lost the lead in product searches to Amazon, where the majority of searches really do begin: 66% of online shoppers in the U.S. Perhaps most surprising though is that 69% of the total universe of the respondents from all 10 countries, just over 11,000 people, report a “very positive impact” on their “general well-being or overall quality of life” from their use of search-that’s a higher percentage than the responses on networking or communications or music or video streaming or online marketplaces, which speaks to the exceedingly important and even satisfying place that search serves in our lives. They also say they used an average of 2.84 search engines in the past 12 months. Of the 1,007 U.S.-based respondents, 62% reported using more than one search engine in the past 12 months and nearly 75% said they change their default search and browser settings. ![]() See also: List of The Powerpuff Girls characters The Powerpuff Girls. In his review of The Powerpuff Girls Movie, movie critic Bob Longino of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution said, "the intricate drawings emanate 1950s futuristic pizzazz like a David Hockney scenescape," and that the show is "one of the few American creations that is both gleeful pop culture and exquisite high art." Episodes Townsville is depicted as a major American city, with a cityscape consisting of several major skyscrapers. The show is set mainly in the city of Townsville, USA. The cartoon always tries to keep different ideas within each episode with some small tributes and parodies thrown in. Episodes often contain hidden references to older pop culture (especially noticeable in the episode "Meet the Beat Alls", which is a homage to the Beatles). In addition, the girls have to deal with the normal issues that young children face, such as sibling rivalries, loose teeth, personal hygiene, going to school, bed wetting, or dependence on a security blanket. The plot of an episode is usually some humorous variation of standard superhero and tokusatsu shows, with the girls using their powers to defend their town from villains and giant monsters. The show revolves around the adventures of three kindergarten-aged girls with an array of various superpowers: Blossom (pink), Bubbles (blue), and Buttercup (green). The series has been nominated for six Emmy Awards, nine Annie Awards, and a Kids' Choice Award during its run. Various spin-off media include an anime, three CD soundtracks, a home video collection, comic books, a series of video games, a 2016 reboot series, and an upcoming second reboot, as well as various licensed merchandise. A total of 78 episodes were aired in addition to two shorts, a Christmas special, the film, a tenth anniversary special, and a special episode using CGI technology. ![]() The Powerpuff Girls aired on Cartoon Network for six seasons, three specials, and a feature film, with the final episode airing on March 25, 2005. Network executives gave McCracken the greenlight for a full series, which debuted as a Cartoon Cartoon on November 18, 1998. ![]() Following a name change to Powerpuff Girls, McCracken submitted his student film to Cartoon Network, who aired the series' refined pilot in its animation showcase program World Premiere Toons on February 20, 1995, along with its follow-up, "Crime 101", which aired on January 28, 1996. While attending his second year at CalArts in 1992, series creator Craig McCracken created a short film, Whoopass Stew!, about a trio of child superheroes called the Whoopass Girls, which was only shown at festivals. The girls all live in the fictional city of Townsville with their father and creator, a scientist named Professor Utonium, and are frequently called upon by the city's mayor to help fight nearby criminals and other enemies using their powers. ![]() The show centers on Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup, three kindergarten-aged girls with superpowers. The Powerpuff Girls is an American superhero animated television series created by animator Craig McCracken and produced by Hanna-Barbera (later Cartoon Network Studios) for Cartoon Network and distributed by Warner Bros. This system also allows quantitative analysis, since it provides numerical data about flow area and flow density maps. Optovue AngioVue® (Optovue, Inc., Freemont, CA), which uses split-spectrum amplitude-decorrelation angiography algorithm, which minimizes motion noise.A three-dimensional image is obtained depicting erythrocyte flow as well as the microvasculature of the superficial, deep, and avascular layers of the retina. ZEISS Angioplex™ OCT angiographic imaging on the CIRRUS™ HD-OCT platform, with a scanning rate up to 68,000 A-scans per second and an improved tracking software known as FastTrac™.Above is a single structural OCT b-scan through the center of the angiogram (yellow).Ĭurrently, there are currently 4 main commercially available OCT-A devices : Red-orange appearing vessels comprise the superficial vascular plexus while green appearing vessels comprise the deep capillary plexus. įull thickness color depth-encoded OCT angiogram of a normal eye. Applied to the optic disc it includes its full depth. These OCT-A algorithms produce an image (3mm 2 to 12mm 2) that is segmented, by standard, into four zones: the superficial retinal plexus, the deep retinal plexus, the outer retina and the choriocapillaris. To improve visualization and reduce background noise from normal small eye movements, two averaging methods - split spectrum amplitude decorrelation technique and volume averaging - were developed. Phase variance is related to the emitted light wave properties, and the variation of phase when it intercepts moving objects. The former detects differences in amplitude between two different OCT B-scans. OCT-A employs two methods for motion detection: amplitude decorrelation or phase variance. Longer wavelengths have a deeper tissue penetrance, but a slightly lower axial resolution. Light is emitted through either a spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT), with a wavelength of near 800nm or a swept-source OCT (SS-OCT), which utilizes a longer wavelength, close to 1050nm. with marked changes between scans) and zones with slower, or no flow at all, which will be similar among scans. With OCT-A technology, the same tissue area is repeatedly imaged and differences are analyzed between scans (over time), thus allowing one to detect zones containing high flow rates (i.e. The OCT scan of a patient's retina consists of multiple individual A-scans, which when compiled into a B-scan provides cross-sectional structural information. OCT-A technology uses laser light reflectance of the surface of moving red blood cells to accurately depict vessels through different segmented areas of the eye, thus eliminating the need for intravascular dyes. The first clinical studies using this innovative technology were published in 2014. Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) has emerged as a non-invasive technique for imaging the microvasculature of the retina and the choroid. The foveal avascular zone is seen in the center of the macula.

We count down the most iconic supermodels of all time, from the ’60s to today. The original supermodels Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, Tatjana Patitz, Christy Turlington, and Cindy Crawford pose with Peter Lindbergh, the iconic fashion photographer who did the Vogue cover shoot. Fashion is always changing, but a handful of famous faces endure. But what ever happened to all those huge names that defined a generation? Where are they now? Well, you're about to find out.įor the last two decades of the 20th century, a group of women essentially controlled the fashion industry. They're not called super for nothing by : ELLE Canada - Jul 8th, 2021. After iconic 90s fashion moments like George Michael's Freedom '90 music video, Peter Lindbergh's 1990 Vogue cover, and Gianni Versace. Those dream women who paraded their stuff up and down the catwalks and filled the glamor mags to bursting were every girl's idol, big sister, and style guide all rolled into one. Victor VIRGILE/Gamma-Rapho via Getty Images Banks began modeling as a teen in the late 80s. The 'Big Six' actually began with a trio of modelsChristy Turlington, Linda Evangelista, and Naomi Campbell called 'The Trinity.' The trio were the most in-demand supermodels of the 1980s and early 1990s. Alright, so none of us would ever be that glamorous, or able to afford a single item in the Calvin Klein or Karl Lagerfield range, but still. But ask a Nineties girl, and they'll tell you about one far more important thing: the supermodels. Ask any Nineties guy what they remember of the era, and they'll probably just talk about Pulp Fiction and Nirvana. ![]() Based on the install method for the Mac itself, the most likely culprit is the Mac Migration Assistant, which was used to move from an old Mac to the new one (both already on El Cap and Fusio n 8.1.0)ĩ. This caused the installer to fail, as it was trying to do things as "root", which should have had permissions (as UID 0), but was failing due to lack of permission, as UID 502Ĩ. Looking at some Mac account info, it was noticed (by "dariusd") that the root user had the wrong UID:ħ. In some of those functions it showed the Repair tool as referencing UID 502 instead of UID 0, like The logs showed that " VMware Fusion| W115: InstallFusionMakeValid: Repair tool failed:" followed by log lines showing all the sub functions.ĥ. The installer drops useful log files in ~/Library/Logs/VMWare Fusion/ with names like "vmware-fusion.log" and "vmware-fusion-NN.log" which are the logs from prior installer runs.Ĥ. In this case, the installer couldn't complete one of the steps. It was a problem with Mac OS X (see below).ģ. It was also NOT a corrupt download problem. In this case, the installer and VMWare software wasn't the problem. VMWare Fusion is damaged, etc message can be caused by many things.Ģ. Let me summarize here, so people don't have to read the whole thread:ġ. I can open and run all my VMs, so the VMWare Fusion portion of this is done. I was just so gobsmacked, since Fusion and Mac OS has been so stable for me, for years, that I just wasn't expecting it to not "just work".Īnd, if all else fails, then I'll re-install. Since I'm already this deep into this, I might as well sort it before some other VMWare Fusion user gets hit with it too. I suspect that the last remaining problem ("can't see previously existing VMs") will also turn out to be another permission problem. Better that I deal with it and sort it out than one of our end users. Tracking down all the b0rk'ed permissions will be interesting, too.Īlso, we have enough of a fleet of Macs at work, that someone will likely come across this again. Changing the UID of root to make the fix is just amusing, for a very demented definition of amusing. I've dug into UNIX/Linux systems at the kernel and driver level, so I think at this point it's just going to be finding the Mac-specific bug or perm problem. I'm pretty comfortable with the command line (my first UNIX was Programmers Work Bench), I'm just always learning the new and fascinating ways that Apple has abused poor little BSD. The installer was just the victim here And I'm collateral damage! I originally thought this was an installer bug, which was completely wrong. At this point, it's almost become a challenge. Approximately in the 10th–11th week, the breathing and swallowing of the fetus slightly decrease the amount of fluid. From the 10th to the 20th week it increases from 25 to 400 millilitres (0.88 to 14.08 imp fl oz 0.85 to 13.53 US fl oz) approximately. The volume of amniotic fluid changes with the growth of fetus. Contents Īt first, amniotic fluid is mainly water with electrolytes, but by about the 12–14th week the liquid also contains proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and phospholipids, urea, and extracellular matrix ECM components including collagens and glycosaminoglycans, including hyaluronic acid and chondroitin sulfate, all of which aid in the growth of the fetus. When this process completes around the 25th week, the fluid is primarily absorbed by the fetal gut for the remainder of gestation. After 22 to 25 week of pregnancy, keratinization of an embryo's skin occurs. The fluid is absorbed through the fetal tissue and skin. ![]() In earlier times, it was believed that the amniotic fluid was composed entirely of excreted fetal urine. When fetal kidneys begin to function around week 16, fetal urine also contributes to the fluid. It is generated from maternal plasma, and passes through the fetal membranes by osmotic and hydrostatic forces. This fluid serves as a cushion for the growing fetus, but also serves to facilitate the exchange of nutrients, water, and biochemical products between mother and fetus.įor humans, the amniotic fluid is commonly called water or waters (Latin liquor amnii).Īmniotic fluid is present from the formation of the gestational sac. The amniotic fluid is the protective liquid contained by the amniotic sac of a gravid amniote. As of July 2012, the film has grossed $184.9 million in North American DVD sales, selling more than 8.8 million units, four million of which were sold within its first weekend, beating Twilight 's 3.8 million units sold in its first two days. New Moon was released on DVD and Blu-ray Disc on March 20, 2010. The film also became the widest independent release, playing in 4,024 theaters, until it was surpassed by The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. This led to the highest single-day domestic gross on an opening day, with $72.7 million, until it was beaten by Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 (2011). It set domestic box office records as the biggest midnight opening in the United States and Canada, grossing $26.3 million, which was superseded by its sequel, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. The film grossed $711 million worldwide, becoming the seventh-highest-grossing film of 2009. The film received mixed-to-negative reviews from critics, who criticized its story, Weitz' direction, its darker tone, and Lautner's performance, but praised its visual effects, Pattinson's performance, pacing and Desplat's musical score. The Twilight Saga: New Moon premiered in Los Angeles on November 16, 2009, and was theatrically released in the United States on November 20, by Summit Entertainment. Principal photography began on March 23, 2009, in Vancouver, Canada, and ended in Montepulciano, Italy on May 29. Summit Entertainment announced it had greenlit the film on November 22, 2008, following the early success of Twilight.
