RT News is funded by RIA Novosti, a state-owned, direct descendent of the Soviet Information Bureau founded as the official bugle of Joseph Stalin's USSR in 1941. The Kremlin's channel jostles for space on the upper reaches of cable and satellite packages with the similarly polished English-language networks of Al Jazeera (owned by the emir of the Persian Gulf state of Qatar) and France 24 (launched by former president Jacques Chirac with the explicit goal of giving a French perspective on the headlines). Two decades ago, as CNN won over audiences worldwide with its dramatic 24-hour coverage of the first Gulf War, walls were crumbling in Eastern Europe, dramatically curtailing the control of authoritarian states over what citizens read and heard.īut now, as the private conglomerates cut back on international news, throwbacks to the old days of state-run media are pouring billions into reporting with a very definite point of view.

We were exposed to songs “our neighbourhood’s got history’ and “can’t speak like a scouser’ which were comical, endearing and made the whole theatre feel they were home and that Prescot was just that. The links to the original Prescot Playhouse (where now stands a barber shop) were explored in a very 21st century way, (mobile phones, modern music, selfies and struggling pubs) and this idea of the writer Rob Brannen and portrayed wonderfully by the artistic director Gaynor La Rocca (both who watched the show this evening with us in the audience) was a stroke of genius. The Cockpit Theatre was a very fitting place to share with us the tale of how the bard transported from Stratford upon Avon in Tudor times to this pub in the centre of the Liverpudlian town. The production team “Imaginarium” is aptly named and as an award-winning ensemble, took us effortlessly and with enviable talent, through their “Strange Tale” of worm holes, eccentric lords, brassy landladies, besotted girls and tattooed thugs, to their adored town Prescot were somehow the bard had appeared. Continuing with the opening season at Shakespeare North Playhouse, this tale explores the link between the 16th century poet and playwright to the Merseyside town of Prescot, in a fun, imaginative and engaging way. ![]() However, we can appropriately suggest that you increase the Ambient Temperature correction factor to allow for any (or all of the above) heat restraints.

The sleep study and MSLT is really just to rule out other possible issues like sleep apnea and cement the diagnosis.īut I've been very doubtful since the appointment last month. When I explained this to her, she said that this was an example of cataplexy and that, along with my other symptoms, makes her pretty convinced that I have narcolepsy. When I get really anxious or stressed, my whole body shakes and I get so weak in my legs that I can't stand. She asked me if I ever experienced leg weakness with strong emotions. My sleep specialist thinks that I have narcolepsy, especially after I answered one of her questions regarding cataplexy. You see, I have already been to a sleep specialist and my sleep study (w/ MSLT) is scheduled for next week. Our team of sleep experts performs sleep studies and multiple sleep latency tests (MSLT), and provides education, advice and assistance to patients and referring physicians regarding the latest testing and treatments available for all types of sleep disorders.I was wondering if those already diagnosed with narcolepsy can assist me in something I'm trying to figure out.

Due to the excessive sleepiness, narcoleptics may fall asleep in very dangerous situations, such as while driving. When mild, narcolepsy may not be diagnosed until later in life. Narcolepsy itself is not life threatening however patients with the condition are at a high risk for accidents. Narcolepsy affects more than 500,000 Americans and symptoms may arise as early as the onset of puberty and continue throughout life. A child with a parent having narcolepsy has 1 chance in 20 of being affected. Recently scientists have identified a genetic marker for this disease confirming that narcolepsy may be hereditary. The exact cause of narcolepsy is unknown. In PLMD, the leg muscles contract every 20 to 40 seconds during sleep. Many people with narcolepsy experience periodic limb movement disorder (PLMD).
