Sundowner's Syndrome : Elderly dementia after sunset. I am so pleased that i found this website today! I have been feeling very depressed and guilty, because I did not understand what was happening to my dad. My father was diagnosed with Parkinson’s over 1. Looking back, I realise that my dad already had sundowners, although it was not so bad yet, just bad dreams and hallucinations, with very little sleep. Being sleepless was and is normal for my dad, as he has always slept very little. I had better explain my dad a bit more, than maybe you will understand a bit better why I feel the way that I do. My dad has always been the “BOSS” of the house, his word was law, and even my mother had no right to express any thoughts, or ideas or anything. She was not even allowed to choose the colour floor tiles she wanted in her kitchen! My mom raised five children, worked basically like a slave all her married life (in the house) and had to do everything for my dad. He could be sitting in the kitchen, having supper, just in front of the fridge, and if he wanted something, he gave the order, and she had to stop eating, get up, and take it out of the fridge which was a foot behind him. He mistreated my older brother – both mentally and physically – basically destroying my brother’s self image – because he was a soft and gentle person like my mother – he was supposed to be tough and hard like a man!! I am the eldest of five, and the only daughter, and I can remember how my poor brother was treated. My mother would try to intervene, and it just made it worse. He was never physically violent to wards to my mother, but was verbally abusive if he did not get his way. My three younger brothers managed to get away without too much mental damage, as he concentrated on his oldest boy. As the years went by, I got married to a wonderful man, soft and gentle, the total opposite to my father. He has also caused that I am very defensive, and will not keep my mouth shut if I feel that I am being verbally attacked, which fortunately for me, my husband understands. Anyway, to cut a long story short, just shortly after my parents moved in, they were both diagnosed with cancer, my mother with colon cancer and my dad with prostrate cancer. My mother had a portion of her colon removed, and started chemo, but had to stop as it was affecting her heart badly. My dad had an orchidectomy. My parents were very young at this stage, just 7. My parents moved into their cottage on our property, and I would go in every day to check on them, take them shopping, library, etc. I worked from home, and according to my dad, I was available at all times for them, so he could not care whether I was in the middle of a job, if he wanted something, I had to get up immediately and do what he wanted, there and then! It caused quite a few arguments! My mother was finally starting to fight back, and refusing to bow down to my dad all the time, but it was too late. All it caused was that my dad was just horribly confused by her reaction. My dad was quite together, with only mild sundown syndrome symptoms at night. It all changed in October last year, when my mom was diagnosed with terminal cancer – colon, liver, lungs, spine and lymph system. The night after we told my dad what was happening, he started with very bad sundown syndrome – which in a way I understand, for it was a huge shock for him. But at the same time, in stead of being there for my mom, placing her first and supporting her as much as he could, he just gave up and became totally dependant on her. He also became both verbally and physically abusive towards her, and I had to seperate them. My husband and I moved them into our house, putting my dad in the main bedroom, and my mom in my daughter’s bedroom (she moved out so that we could do that). I was eventually totally exhausted, as I was nursing my mom day and night, and also having to try and keep my dad calm and contained. The new flick Pokémon: I Choose You! ditches Brock and Misty, but there’s something that might be even more surprising. (Warning: this article has spoilers!). That stopped the day I caught him hitting her, because she would not get up and help him dress! My mother was the entire spill of our family life, and she was more than my mother – she was my best friend, my sister, my everything! I adored her! I love my dad, but not in the same way as I loved my mom. There was no way on this earth that I was going to allow my dad to mistreat my mother even more.
We eventually hired nursing care, one fulltime at night to take care of my dad, I took care of my mom at night, and then a nurse’s aid during the day for both my mom and dad, while I tried to rest and carry on working. It was becoming extremely stressfull at home! My mom eventually passed away on 2. February this year, and my dad has just completely regressed, showing all the symptoms that are discussed on the blogs here. We eventually had to let our night carer go, as he was gay and unfortunately my dad started saying that he was “fiddling” with him! We kept our day carer, and she has been an absolute treasure, helping to keep me sane! She works during the week, and we have just this weekend hired another nurse to take care of my dad on Saturdays and Sundays, while I take over at nights. My dad is on various types of medications, including 3 different tranquilizers and 2 sleeping tablets at night. He complains of terrible pain in his left shoulder, but xrays do not show anything wrong. Since my mom’s death, my dad has been suffering from UTI’s, and is now on a permanent antibiotic. He is constantly trying to get up, still does not sleep, in spite of all the medication, will insist of trying to walk, even without a walker, undresses himself at night, is verbally abusive, and last night, for the first time in a few months, tried to hit me! I have had enough! I am wrong, I know, but I have not been able to mourn my mother, I am so angry at my dad, for once more, he placed himself first and made my mom’s last remaining days on this earth more hellish than it should have been! I am struggling to get him into a home, because they are not all equipped to take care of him, and there are huge waiting lists here in South Africa. Also my dad never wanted to listen to anyone about making provision for his old age, so all he has is the proceeds from the sale of his house and a tiny little government pension. He has given my brothers a huge part of the money he got for his house, and now so little is left that my husband and I are going to pay a lot towards frail care once I am able to get him into a home. I am stressed, exhausted, cannot forgive my dad! I also feel devastated that I feel this way, which just makes things worse.

Patent FAQs | USPTOExample A: An applicant based in Chicago, Illinois, directs US counsel to prepare, file and prosecute an application in the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The US counsel subsequently sends the application to foreign counsel for filing and prosecution in foreign jurisdictions. The US counsel directs foreign counsel to provide copies of all communications from the foreign office (by fax or overnight mail) within seven days of receipt thereof, and expressly reserves all decision- making authority as to prosecution of the US and foreign applications. On January 5, 2. 00. Germany receives a communication from the European Patent Office that includes a list of citations of patents. On January 8, the foreign counsel, pursuant to the standing instructions of US counsel, sends by overnight mail, a copy of the communication from the EPO. The document is received by US counsel on January 1. On January 3. 0, the US counsel reviews the document and discovers a previously uncited patent. A copy of the patent and an IDS is then prepared and filed by the US counsel on February 1. Example B: An applicant based in Paris, France, directs French counsel to prepare, file and prosecute an application in the European Patent Office. The EPO application is then sent to US counsel by French counsel to be reviewed, edited and prepared for filing in the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The US counsel works with the French counsel to review the edited application, and then files the US application. The review and editing of the US application also leads the French counsel to amend its EPO application. On January 5, 2. 00. French counsel receives a search report from the European Patent Office that includes a list of six patents. On January 2. 0, 2. US counsel receives from French counsel (by overnight mail) a copy of the communication from the EPO and suggests that the US counsel review the search report and "take appropriate action." On January 2. French counsel provides a copy of the search report to the applicant. On January 3. 0, 2. US counsel reviews the document and discovers a previously uncited patent. A copy of the patent and an IDS is then prepared and filed by the US counsel on February 1. Example C: An applicant based in Chicago, Illinois, hires US counsel to prepare an application suitable for filing in the United States and the European Patent Office. The US counsel engages a German attorney to assist in the review and editing of the application to take account of issues relevant to EPO practice. The US counsel then reviews the edited application, approves the changes, and files it in the United States. The US counsel then directs the German attorney to file the application in the EPO. During prosecution of the US case, the US counsel receives an office action citing three patents. On December 1, 2. US counsel sends the three patents to the German attorney for review and appropriate action. On January 5, 2. 00. German attorney receives a search report from the EPO that cites the three previously cited patents, plus a fourth patent, designating all as "X" references. On January 1. 5, the German attorney reviews the fourth patent and compares it to the three patents cited in the US prosecution. The German attorney concludes that the fourth patent is duplicative of one of the three patents, and takes no further action. On March 1, 2. 00. US counsel is informed of the citation of the fourth patent by the EPO and the decision of the German attorney that the information in the newly cited patent was duplicative of the three patents previously cited by the USPTO. The US counsel also obtains copies of the newly cited patent on this date. On March 5, 2. 00. US counsel files an IDS containing the newly cited patent. Introduction. 37 CFR 1. CFR 1. 9. 7 and 1. CFR 1. 7. 04(c)(6), (c)(8), (c)(9), or (c)(1. CFR 1. 5. 6(c) more than thirty days prior to the filing of the information disclosure statement. The determination of when the thirty day period begins to run is dependent on the role of each entity involved in the prosecution of the US and foreign applications, and the role that each plays (if any) vis- - vis the US application. The inventors, the assignee and the US patent counsel are all individuals designated in 3. CFR 1. 5. 6(c). The issue is whether the foreign patent counsel is also an individual designated in 3. CFR 1. 5. 6(c). 3. CFR 1. 5. 6(c) provides that individuals associated with the filing or prosecution of a patent application within the meaning of 3. CFR 1. 5. 6 are: Each inventor named in the application; Each attorney or agent who prepares or prosecutes the application; and. Every other person who is substantively involved in the preparation or prosecution of the application and who is associated with the inventor, with the assignee or with anyone to whom there is an obligation to assign the application. Based on these elements of 3. CFR 1. 5. 6(c), the following would be the conclusions of the Office in the three examples cited above. Answer to Example A: The thirty- day period would be calculated from January 1. As such, the IDS filed on February 1. CFR 1. 7. 04(d), and thus would not result in a reduction of any patent term pursuant to 3. CFR 1. 7. 04(c)(6), (c)(8), (c)(9), or (c)(1. In this example, the foreign counsel has no substantive role in the prosecution of the US application. The explicitly defined role of the foreign counsel relative to the US counsel in combination with the practice in the described fact pattern removes any potential doubt as to the role of the foreign counsel. Answer to Example B: The thirty- day period would be calculated from January 5, 2. As such, the submission of the IDS would not be received within the thirty- day window in 3. CFR 1. 7. 04(d), and thus could result in a reduction of any patent term pursuant to 3. CFR 1. 7. 04(c)(6), (c)(8), (c)(9), or (c)(1. In this example, the USPTO would consider the French counsel to have been a party within the meaning of 3. CFR 1. 5. 6(c). The French counsel, based on the above facts, played a material role in the preparation and prosecution of the US application (e. US counsel to amend the application and subsequently amended the EPO application based on the work product produced with US counsel). In addition to the French counsel, the applicant would in any case be a party within the meaning of 3. CFR 1. 5. 6(c). Answer to Example C: The thirty- day period would be calculated from January 5, 2. As such, the submission of the IDS would be determined to have not been received, received within the thirty- day window in 3. CFR 1. 7. 04(d), and thus could result in a reduction of any patent term pursuant to 3. CFR 1. 7. 04(c)(6), (c)(8), (c)(9), or (c)(1. In this example, the USPTO would consider the participation of the German counsel in the prosecution and decision- making as to the relevance of the newly cited art vis- - vis the previously cited three patents to be a material participation in the US prosecution. As such, the German counsel would be considered by the USPTO to be a party covered by 3. CFR 1. 5. 6(c), and as such, would evaluate compliance with 3. CFR 1. 7. 04(d) from the date that the foreign counsel first learned of the fourth patent (i. Love it Book it unforgettable cruise deals and holidays.

Government Subsidy on Solar inverter & panels Set up. Note: As i already said, it is possible to get government subsidy up to 2. Rs. 1. 3,0. 00 as subsidy for this configurtion, so that the final cost would come down to Rs. Remember that, for subsidy you need to wait up to 6 months after installation, so the total amount you need to invest initially is approximately Rs. How to Buy Solar Panels? For this setup, we need 2 Nos of 2. Solar panels are widely available in cities and towns nowadays,Price is based on Rs./watt. Types of Solar Panels available in market. There are two types of solar cells available in market,Mono crystalline solar panels and Poly crystalline solar panels. Mono crystalline is expensive and little more efficient than poly crystalline. Poly crystalline solar panels are affordable, widely available and best seller in market. So, we recommend Poly crystalline solar panels. PRICING At present Poly crystalline panels are available for Rs. Rs. 4. 50. 0 to Rs. Bargain and get the best price deal. When buying solar panels, ask for MNRE approval, so that you can claim 2. How To Use Solar Inverter. Here we are going to use normal sine wave inverter for our setup,Few Branded solar hybrid inverters are also available in market, they have inbuilt solar charge controller, but they are too expensive and most solar technicians follow this method of using normal sine wave inverter with solar charge controller. What is Solar Charge Controller? The current we get from solar panels will not remain constant throughout the day, so many ups and downs will be there, so that we can not connect solar photo voltaic modules directly to charge our battery, it will spoil our battery over time. So, we need a device called solar charge controller to control the current we receive from solar panels, the charge controller has inbuilt PWM (pulse width modulation) charger to charge the lead acid battery in three stages, which ensures long life for battery. In this 5. 00 watts solar setup, we will get 4. We can use the free current from PV modules during this day time by manually switching off the Input to Inverter (power supply from grid), so that the inverter battery will be charged with available solar power. While the battery is getting charge from solar panels, concurrently we can use the battery power to power up our home. So, with solar power, the battery will be get charge and on the other side the battery will deliver current to inverter for powering up our gadgets, this happens simultaneously. Caution. As we have only 5. Lets see how many Fans, lights and TV can we use with this 4. One 3. 2 inch LCD – 8. Total – 3. 20 watts(As we don’t use lights during day time, i exclude it from this list.)So, we use 3. The excess 8. 0 watts will go directly in to your battery storage, not only that 8. LVD TV for 5 hours in day time, that 8. LCD also goes to battery storage directly. So, you can use the excess current during night time, as you have heavy power cut even at night time, we should limit our power usage to 3. MOST IMPORTANT THING TO REMEMBER ! In this whole setup, one thing you should remember is. Point No. 1 –> Manually switch off the Grid power supply to inverter every morning 7 or 8 AM (according to the availability of sun light)Point No. Manually switch on the Grid power supply to inverter on evening time, when sunlight goes off.……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. This is very simple process. Now,1. 3 or 1. 4 hour power cuts could not interrupt your daily life. You could also save money on your electricity bills. Using the above method, users can convert their existing normal inverter to solar inverter and beat the power cuts. This Diagram would help you understand the whole setup! Post Your questions regarding this setup, i will answer you within 2. It’s so embarrassing. Here I am, a contributor at MakeUseOf with a background in data security, and I’m about to tell you how my Skype account got hacked. If you suspect your Microsoft / Hotmail account has been hacked but. over your account after you have changed your password. account (such as Skype. Alert: Skype account hijack technique may affect all users. According to security researcher @Tibit. Ximer (A. K. A. Dylan) his Skype account was stolen six times, and now claims all Skype user accounts are vulnerable to the same fate due to Skype's flimsy account recovery practices - which are especially thin, as he discovered the hard way, when contacting customer service. When he contacted Skype support, reps didn't appear to acknowledge that the issue was immediate.. Perhaps that is because his account had been hijacked through basic social engineering techniques and not hacked - as then he learned that the problem was with contacting customer service itself. New update Monday April 1. PST: Response from Microsoft/Skype suggests customers will need to solve this problem themselves. Microsoft/Skype tells ZDNet through our contact form, "We encourage customers to use Microsoft account to log into Skype, which helps make their accounts more secure using two- step verification" and "our customer support agents remain available to help customers as needed." See the entire statement at page bottom. Four hours ago (as of this writing) @Tibit. Ximerexplained what happened when his account was repeatedly hijacked and the too- simple reclamation process he repeated each time in detail on the Skype community forums: It was stolen around 3pm on the first day. · Skype for business; Surface for. in to your account, your password may have been changed by. so they can still see your information after you reset.I recovered it through Skype support (..) within 3. In less than 2 hours after recovering my account, it was stolen by another person. My] skype then was [re- ]recovered by a friend of mine while I was at dinner. When I got back and changed the info to my own again, it was stolen later that evening. Another friend recovered it for me and tried to keep the scammer out of my account. According to @Tibit. Ximer, Skype only requires three points for account recovery: 3- 5 of the Skype account holder's contacts. One email address the account holder used on Skype at any point. Account holder's first and/or last name@Tibit. Ximer goes on to relate that a spammer commandeered his account - and holds Skype responsible: (..) because Skype support didn't verify if the person owned the account or not, just wanted those 3 points mentioned above) my account was used scam people out hundreds of dollars along with damaging my reputation for my product's security due to thinking I had low security on my skype account or email address, when in reality, it was Skype Support's fault my account was stolen, multiple times, and had nothing to do with End- users (me in this case). In @Tibit. Ximer's description of his account's theft- and- recovery ordeal, when the account was nabbed as he slept, his colleague got Skype support on chat (image of chat here, personal information redacted). Thankfully support added a further query - whether Dylan had purchased Skype premium in the past. Dylan's colleague answered yes, and obtained the account by then using @Tibit. Ximer's name, email address, and: 5 people he knew I had added on Skype since I had over 8. March 2. 01. 3, which I was not a Skype premium customer at that time and haven't been since last November). Dylan has since emailed Skype support twice attempting to have his account suspended to stop the situation, but as of this writing, account suspension had not been put into effect. A Skype account email- hijack issue surfaced previously five months ago, when it was learned on a Russian website that hijackers could signup for a new account with an email already in use, and could continue setting up the account to receive the victim's password reset notification and token. Skype fixed the issue within hours. However, Skype has never had a good track record for verifying actual ownership of email addresses. Time to change Skype's recovery policy? Frustrated and worried, @Tibit. Ximer suggests that Skype add the following to its customer security practices as soon as possible: He has strongly suggested that these security practices be put in place: Security Questions. Authentification. Good Support that looks into these issues. Support that can understand plain English and follow through with the request correctly instead of mistaking the my clear request for something different. 2. A real security policy to actually verify ownership of accounts. In the meantime, a strong recommendation for Skype users would be to change their Skype account email address to an email address that is unique (not used anywhere else). One suggestion would be to modify your Gmail address with these techniques. Another good idea would be to learn how to protect yourself from basic social engineering - read Veracode's Hacking The Mind: How and Why Social Engineering Works. ZDNet has reached out to Skype for comment, and will update this piece with developments. Update Sunday April 2. PST: Skype has not responded to request for comment, yet email and comments relate more instances of account hijacking with the same technique. Via ZDNet contact form: In regards to the article you did on the skype account hijacking, I would like to say that it also happened to me. I also tried the "method" on a skype account I own and I only needed 3- 5 contacts and a country! I actually wrote "I am not sure" or "I forgot this" was answers to most of the questions Skype Support gave me to recover an account. It's ridiculous how easy it is and it needs to be fixed! If you want more information, please email me. Update Monday April 2. PST: @Tibit. Ximer has contacted ZDNet to say that a Skype forum moderator has deleted similar issue reports but has "escalated the problem to whom I report." After four attempts @Tibit. Ximer cannot get his Skype account suspended (despite Skype claiming otherwise) and he adds,I've talked to at least 6- 7 support agents myself and another 4- 6 agents gave away my account to those that were hijacking it without actually verifying ownership of my account. It's clearly not just one or two support agents, but the entire support system and Skype's lack of a clear, secure, & efficient security policy. Update Monday April 2. PST: A Skype spokesperson has now provided the following statement via the ZDNet contact form. I invite you to update your article. We take the security of our customers extremely seriously, and have been making ongoing enhancements to help protect customers. We have processes in place that would help protect against password reset scenarios such as this, and our customer support agents remain available to help customers as needed. We encourage customers to use Microsoft account to log into Skype, which helps make their accounts more secure using two- step verification.

Westwood Studios and published by Virgin Interactive. Set in an alternate history of modern day, the game tells the story of a world war between two globalized factions: the Global Defense Initiative of the United Nations and a cult- like militant organization called the Brotherhood of Nod, led by the mysterious Kane. The groups compete for control of Tiberium, a mysterious substance that slowly spreads across the world. Westwood first conceived Command & Conquer during the final stages of the development of Dune II, and it expands on ideas first explored in that title. Inspired by the events of the era, particularly the Gulf War, the team gave the game a modern warfare setting. The game contains live- action full motion video cutscenes, which star Westwood employees and a single professional actor, Joseph D. Kucan, who plays Kane. Command & Conquer was a commercial and critical success, selling over three million copies and winning numerous awards. It has been cited as the title that defined and popularized the real- time strategy genre. The game was the first in the Command & Conquer series, which sold 3. To mark the 1. 2th anniversary of the franchise, Electronic Arts, the current publisher and owner of the series, released the game for free in 2. Gameplay[edit]Command & Conquer requires the player to construct a base and to gather resources in order to fund the production of buildings, technologies, and combat units to attack and conquer an opponent's base.[4] The game contains two playable factions: the Global Defense Initiative (GDI) and the Brotherhood of Nod. GDI units are sturdy and powerful, but expensive. Meanwhile, Nod armies are made up of a mix of cheap and numerous units, mixed in with unusual units such as rocket bikes and stealth tanks. As a result, GDI focuses on large- scale strategic attacks, while Nod creates bigger armies and uses unconventional tactics.[5] There are roughly fifty units and structures in total.[6][7][8] Tiberium, the game's sole resource, is gathered by harvester units that carry it to a refinery structure for processing.[4][9] When the player constructs buildings, additional units and structures become available for purchase.[4][5]Command & Conquer features two single- player campaigns, one each for the GDI and Nod factions.[5] The objective of most campaign missions is to destroy or take control of enemy buildings.[4] The missions begin with live- action full motion video (FMV) cutscenes.[6]The original DOS release features multiplayer with up to four players, a rarity at the time.[1. Multiplayer over an Internet connection was added in Command & Conquer Gold, which also features SVGA visuals.[1. The game's Sega Saturn and Play. Station ports lack multiplayer support,[1. The Covert Operations expansion pack.[1. The Nintendo 6. 4 version features updated graphics, with 3. D models and environments.[1. The FMV cutscenes were removed and replaced with static images, accompanied by voice acting and sound effects.[1. While the Nintendo 6. Special Ops" missions, it lacks multiplayer support.[1. Setting[edit]Command & Conquer is set in an alternate timeline, after a meteorite crashed near the river Tiber in Italy in 1. The meteorite brings with it an extremely toxic[1. Tiberium, which becomes extremely valuable because of its ability to absorb and crystallize precious metals from the surrounding soil.[1. An ancient, cultic secret society called the Brotherhood of Nod claims to have foreseen the potentials of this new substance, investing in the development of technology to harvest and refine Tiberium crystals ahead of the scientific community.[1. Nod soon controls nearly half of the supply[2. The group is led by a self- proclaimed messianic figure known only as Kane.[2. Following a series of international terrorist bombings that culminate in the destruction of the fictional Grain Trade Center in Vienna[2. Brotherhood of Nod[2. United Nations Security Council realizes that Kane and Nod are commencing a global campaign of terrorism, and authorises the Global Defense Initiative to intervene on its behalf,[2. Command & Conquer features two sub- plots based on the two playable factions of the game. Commanding the Global Defense Initiative's troops, the player becomes instrumental in eliminating Nod's European forces. Under the command of General Mark Jamison Sheppard, the player completes missions that range from securing a beach, to rescuing civilians and scientists, to defending GDI bases from Nod assaults. Combat occurs in countries of Central and Eastern Europe. A major plot element is an international scandal caused by a Nod media manipulation, which convinces the world that the GDI deliberately attacked and massacred the Polish city of Białystok. This leads to a cut in GDI funding, forcing the player to play several missions with limited forces. Finally, the player besieges the Temple of Nod in Sarajevo, Bosnia, which Kane uses as his main base of operations.[2. As a new recruit in the Brotherhood of Nod, the player initially performs tasks for the Brotherhood's second- in- command, a man known as Seth.[2. After Seth attempts to deploy the player in an operation against the United States military without Kane's approval, Kane kills him and thereafter issues commands to the player directly.[2. The player's goal is to drive GDI forces out of North Africa through the use of both conventional and unconventional warfare. In a ploy to secure victory for Nod, the player is assigned to gain control of GDI's space- based ion cannon, and to establish Nod's Temple in South Africa.[2. The campaign ends with the entire African continent under Nod's control, and with the Brotherhood planning to achieve the same in Europe. The conclusion of the campaign allows the player to choose a historical landmark to destroy with GDI's hijacked ion cannon, in order to shatter GDI's public image.[2. Potential targets include the White House, the British Houses of Parliament, the Eiffel Tower and the Brandenburg Gate. Development[edit]Westwood Studios began developing Command & Conquer in early 1. Dune II’s development.[3. The team sought to build on the foundation laid by their earlier game,[1. Westwood co- founder Brett Sperry later said that "Command & Conquer was the net result of the Dune II wish list."[3. Following the success of Dune II, Sperry believed that "it was time to build the ultimate RTS" with an original intellectual property. He later said that he was "fanatical about calling the game 'Command & Conquer'," because he believed that the title was an ideal summary of the gameplay.[3. As with Dune II, Command & Conquer originally took place in a high fantasy world before being redesigned.[1. The team changed to a modern warfare setting because of the political climate of the mid- 1. Gulf War as a key influence in this decision. Westwood co- founder Louis Castle said that "[w]ar was in the news and the threat of terrorism was on everyone's mind".[1. The setting was further influenced by Sperry's belief that future wars would not be "nation- to- nation", but would rather be "fought between Western society and a kind of anarchistic terror organization that doesn't have a centralized government." The team sought to make the player feel like their computer was "a terminal to a real battlefield", going so far as to make the installation process resemble hacking a "military infrastructure".[3. However, Castle noted that the team "created [a parallel universe] to avoid dealing with the sobering issues of a real war."[1. How to Be a Polite Pot Tourist. Last weekend I purchased some marijuana. Not from some friend of a friend of a friend, but from an actual dispensary in Boulder, Colorado. Boulder, like the rest of Colorado, has recreational marijuana dispensaries where you can purchase weed legally. It was cool. But while my partner had purchased legal marijuana in the past, I didn’t know the first thing about the standard operating procedure of bud buying. If you’re not a native, or are visiting a state just to get some cannabis while you vacation, you might want to adhere to a few easy to follow guidelines to make yourself a model dispensary customer. The dispensary, as well as the locals, will appreciate it. Keep Your ID Handy. Visiting a dispensary involves proving you’re 2. ID. You’ll have to show it twice: first when you walk in the door, and again when you’re finally purchasing your recreational cannabis. Dispensaries are rigorous in their ID checks, with some scanning the IDs to ensure they’re legitimate. When you picture someone smoking weed, a person cranking out reps in the gym is probably the last…Read more Bring Cash Don’t count on using your bank card for purchases at a dispensary. Since marijuana is still considered a Schedule I narcotic on a federal level, it’s illegal for dispensaries to use bank accounts to process transactions, and that means you aren’t able to purchase it with your debit or credit card.

You’ll need cash in most situations. Some dispensaries have ATMs inside for your convenience, but you should call ahead to double check. Plan Ahead. You should be prepared before you walk in the door and familiar with what you might be interested in purchasing. That means doing a little research beforehand, checking out the dispensary’s site and inventory, and asking friends more familiar with marijuana than you about the best way to get started if it’s your first time. Be sure to check their hours as well; some dispensaries are open late, some open early, and some are closed on certain days of the week. Cameras and Phones are a No- No. You should shy away from last- minute lookups and sharing with the world your current weed- friendly situation until you’re home. I was nearly ejected from the first dispensary I visited simply because my DSLR was hanging off my wrist, despite it having a lens cap. Dispensaries have a pretty strict “no photos” policy that you should adhere to unless you want to get kicked out of the store. Be Nice to Your Bud Tender. Your bud tender is your marijuana middleman, the person behind the counter that helps you pick the right product. That means you should treat them with the same respect you’d show your friendly neighborhood mixologist, and not like some stoner who just loves weed. They’re happy to help as long as you’re polite. It helps to think about your questions beforehand, so you’re not staring dumbfounded while your bud tender waits for your brain to catch up to your mouth. Marijuana has a healthier image than many other drugs (or, depending on who you ask, alcohol), and…Read more You shouldn’t feel obligated, but if you’d like to tip your bud tender, you should check the rules beforehand. Some states, like Washington, allow tipping as long as it isn’t linked to product pricing or used to avoid paying certain taxes. Smoke ‘Em if You Got ‘Em (at Home)Smoking marijuana in public is still illegal, despite the growing number of states legalizing recreational use. That means you can’t smoke it outside the dispensary you just walked out of. Some states, like Maine and Massachusetts, will fine offenders up to $1. |
