Having some mild cognitive impairment trying to remember dementia patterns on imaging? Is looking at dementia PET scans one of your PET peeves? Have short-term memory loss when you read about dementia imaging? Here’s a way to remember dementia patterns so you will never forget! Major dementia imaging patterns:... Alzheimer’s disease (AD) —AD has a Nike swoosh pattern—with decreased metabolism in parietal & temporal regions —Remember when you see the Nike swoosh patter, just call it! Dementia w/Lewy Bodies (DLB) —Temporoparietal hypometabolism like AD but also involves occipital cortex, specific for DLB. —DLB also extends farther to the ant. temporal cortex. —Remember, regions of hypometabolism look more like an L. And Lewy starts w/an L Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) —Frontal & temporal hypometabolism as expected, but extends along the anterior cingulate gyrus —Anterior cingulate involvement makes the hypometabolism looks like a lowercase letter f—and frontotemporal starts with f Posterior cortical atrophy —Can be from AD or DLB & has hypometabolism in the occipital & post. temporal lobe, sparing the anterior temporal lobe —Sparing the anterior temporal lobe makes the involvement look like a C instead of an L like DLB. —So remember pCa Vascular dementia —Vascular dementia has a variable distribution, depending on the regions infarcted (V is both for Vascular & Variable) —Wedged shaped regions of hypometabolism corresponding to cortical infarcts—looks like an inverted V This list isn’t all inclusive & there can be variations or even mixed dementias But hopefully this gives you a starting point you won’t soon forget!show more

Bruce Willis Update: Wife Emma Clarifies Key Misconception About His Dementia Emma Heming Willis addressed a major misconception about her husband Bruce Willis’ condition during a recent podcast appearance. The Die Hard star, 71, was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia (FTD) — a rare brain disorder affecting the frontal and temporal lobes. Key detail: Bruce has the language variant of FTD (one of three main variants). This primarily impacts speech and language abilities, but does NOT affect memory. Emma emphasized: “He does [remember who you are] because he doesn’t have Alzheimer’s; he has FTD.” He knows his family, including his five daughters. I’m glad he still has his memories. He’s still there it’s just harder to communicate with him. FTD is the most common form of dementia for people under 60, and while there’s no cure, the family continues raising awareness. Prayers for Bruce and his loved ones during this challenging time. 💙 (Video: AI)

Think you’ve got the diagnosis? Think again!! This is a case where the diagnosis is not as important as the lesson it teaches you. Watch the video and then check back for hidden portion of this post to see what the answer is... And what lesson you should have learned from it ! Avidly enhancing T2 dark lesions in the subependymal region with increased diffusion signal. If I said that description to you—even without seeing the images—you would say lymphoma! Was that your answer? It was mine! And we are both wrong! It turned out to be metastatic melanoma. But the lesson here is that just because you were wrong by pathology, doesn’t mean you were wrong on the imaging If I saw a case like this again, I would still say lymphoma! You won’t be right every time—there will be weird cases. But you are making a bet on the imaging appearance and you should always bet the odds—with the risk that every now and then you might be wrong! So don’t remember from this case that metastases can look like lymphoma—remember that sometimes it’s ok to be wrong as long as you read the case right

What does it feel like to realize that, in your little boy’s eyes, you are one of the most important people in the entire world? There's something special about having a young son who looks up to you as a dad. At that age, Dad can seem almost larger than life. He is the guy who can fix things, reach the high shelf, carry the heavy stuff, answer the impossible questions, and somehow make an ordinary afternoon feel like an adventure. And half the time, he probably has no idea just how closely his son is watching him. A little boy does not need his dad to be perfect. He just wants to be around him. He wants to follow him around the house, help with whatever he is doing, wear his old hat, imitate the way he talks, and eventually say, “Dad, can I come with you?” The little moments can seem insignificant when they happen, are sometimes the moments that fathers remember years later. There is also something humbling about knowing that your son is learning what it means to be a man partly by watching you. How you treat your wife, how you handle frustration, how you keep your word, how you treat strangers, how you respond when things go wrong. He may not understand all of it yet, but he is taking it in. And maybe that is one of the greatest joys of being a father. You get to watch a little boy who thinks you can do anything slowly grow into a young man who understands that you are human after all, while still carrying some of the lessons and memories you gave him along the way. One day, he may not need you to carry him anymore, but he will always remember the years when being carried by Dad made him feel like everything was going to be alright. So if your little boy looks up to you today, have you ever thought about just how much that simple admiration might mean to him?

Ever wanted to get some rest when you have a toddler? 😂😂😂 How'd that work out for you? 😂 Toddlers have a gift for finding things they shouldn't touch, whatever that is... Cabinets. Drawers. Dog food. Toilet paper. Anything left within reach becomes an adventure. You finally get them settled. You sit down. Maybe you get a few minutes of peace. Then you hear something. Or worse, you hear nothing. When you have a toddler, silence can be the most suspicious sound of all. You walk into the other room and find a tiny tornado pulling everything apart like he's conducting an important investigation. And somehow you're exhausted before the day is even halfway over. That's the toddler years. Your patience gets tested. Your sleep gets interrupted. Your house gets messy. Your plans get pushed around. But there's something worth remembering in the middle of all that chaos. This is your kid. This is the season when they are learning everything. Their curiosity is running wild. Their personality is coming alive. Every day they discover something new, and you get a front row seat. So yes, Dad is tired. Dad would also like to finish one cup of coffee while it's still hot. But this stage won't last forever. One day the house will be quiet. The little footsteps won't be racing down the hallway. Nobody will be opening every cabinet just to see what's inside. You might actually miss the chaos. So get some rest when you can. Hold the line when you need to. Laugh when you can. The toddler years are exhausting. They are also priceless. When you look back years from now, will you remember only how tired you were, or how lucky you were to be there for it?

004/100 Buttons. A bit of the process on building an animation. When looking at a finished animation or in this example a finished button, it can look quite complex inside the CSS. But when building it, it’s more like a lot of simple steps, one after another. Here I had the idea to make some kind of text animation like the footer logo on the Osmo site. I try to add the base animation with no complex easing, for example transition: translate 0.4s ease. Starting with just moving the one text from bottom to top and the other text to top. Adding a stagger, play around with it. Searching for a way to make it more circular. On the research I found the sin() function inside CSS which can build a more smooth non linear curve for the stagger which creates this circular effect. And step by step adding more complexity like, different easing for hover/hover-out, opacity, 3D transform and more. I use also the sin() function to rotate the letters, so the middle ones are getting more rotated than the outer ones. Another thing which helps is to add a small delay on hover, for example 0.05s or 0.1s, you don’t really see the difference, but when you hover pretty fast on and out it doesn’t get that jumpy. I’m using here GSAP’s SplitText to split every char into spans. And then I’m adding a CSS index variable to every span, starting from the center. SplitText can provide CSS index variables, but you cannot tell it from which direction. For the sin() it’s also important to have a max length, so I add another CSS variable with the max char number on it. Crafting 100 Buttons with Osmo ⏳ Total time: 63h

The Chickenpox Virus Never Left. It May Have Been Slowly Rewiring Your Brain. There is a virus living inside you right now. It has been there since you were small, since the week you were covered in spots and your mother dabbed you with calamine lotion and told you not to scratch, which you did anyway. When the illness passed and you got on with the business of growing up, the virus did not leave. It retreated into your nerve cells, pulled the blanket over its head, and settled in for a very long stay indeed. That virus is varicella-zoster. And it is beginning to look like it may have a considerably larger amount to answer for than one miserable itchy week in childhood. The discovery came about in the way so many important ones do: almost entirely by accident, and in Wales. When health authorities rolled out their shingles vaccine program, they had to draw an eligibility line somewhere. People born before September 2, 1933 were out. People born on or after that date were in. A perfectly arbitrary cutoff, the kind bureaucracies produce routinely, without anyone imagining it might one day illuminate the workings of the aging human brain. And yet. Stanford researchers examined Welsh health records and found that those who received the shingles vaccine were 20 percent less likely to develop dementia over the following seven years. The two groups were otherwise essentially the same people: same education levels, same rates of diabetes and heart disease, same general relationship with healthcare. The only meaningful difference was a notable drop in dementia diagnoses among the vaccinated. They checked Australia. Same pattern. Then England, New Zealand, Canada. Dataset after dataset produced the same strong protective signal. At a certain point, when you keep seeing the same result everywhere you look, it stops resembling coincidence. A follow-up study in Cell found that the vaccine does not merely help prevent dementia in healthy people. Among those who already have it, the vaccinated were nearly 30 percent less likely to die from the disease over nine years, suggesting something closer to a therapeutic effect than a preventive one. Remarkable, for a vaccine designed to prevent a rash. The leading theory is not especially comforting. Varicella-zoster can reactivate quietly, below the threshold of obvious symptoms, causing slow cumulative damage through inflammation, abnormal protein accumulation, and changes to the small blood vessels supplying neural tissue. Those mechanisms overlap uncomfortably with the ones already implicated in Alzheimer’s disease. “In some ways,” one Harvard epidemiologist noted, “we are being lucky.” Lucky is putting it mildly. Dementia affects more than 55 million people worldwide, with no reliable treatment and no clear prevention strategy beyond the familiar advice about sleep and vegetables. And here, sitting on pharmacy shelves across the developed world, is a vaccine that has apparently been handing out significant neurological protection to everyone who rolled up their sleeve for it, without anyone fully realizing it was doing so. If you are over fifty and have not had your shingles vaccine, that is worth raising with your doctor. If you have, you may have done your brain a rather larger favour than you knew. Stay connected.

This is what “rich” looks like I wake up everyday feeling like I hit the lotto. Not when I’m up on a trade or when I drive one of my cars, but in quiet moments like this. Just a few years ago, I was facing prison time. Broke. Delivering food on DoorDash to scrape together a few hundred bucks to fund my trading account. We shared a one-bedroom apartment with $500 to our name after bills. The journey from there to here wasn’t overnight. It wasn’t glamorous. It was a grind that broke me down before it built me up…but it made me the man I am today. Yes, I have the cars and watches now that people associate with success. But I can tell you with absolute certainty…they don’t compare to this. Building a life with someone who believed in you when nobody else did and winning the game of life Trading changed my financial situation, but gratitude changed my life. If you’re reading this and still in the grind, just keep pushing. I know it may seem like it will never work, but it will. You have to believe that. You have to be thankful for every little thing because without the bad there is no good. Without the bad you become weak. The most important thing is to remember what you’re working towards and make sure there is real meaning behind it. There’s nothing wrong with cars or a lavish lifestyle… But the only way you’ll have the hunger to get it and sustain it long term… Is by having a higher purpose that you constantly remind yourself of.

things to know about wv dms from someone who has experience with the bubble app and had a chat with skz hyunjin for over a year: - its 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹, it’s the members themselves - for us it’s a 1:1 chat with the idol but for them it’s like a groupchat with all the people who paid - they can see and directly reply to you if they want to but there’s too many ppl so it’s hard for them to see. 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗺𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗵𝗲’𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗹𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗹𝘆!!! they can actually select the message they want so if they ever reply to you you’ll know for sure. - they have an option in their version of the app where they click and it automatically mentions the name you have set on the app and it looks like he’s directly addressing you but it’s the same for every fan. - theres a 1 next to the messages, if it disappears, the member is in the chat, doesn’t mean he read specifically your message, remember it’s a gc for them. - the translations are bad so it’ll look weird, you can deactivate the automatic translation on the 3 dots on the upper right. make sure you always look for translations on here (ENHYPEN WEVERSE) before you bring something to tl. finally, ai bots reply immediately, once the boys go inactive or get busy, no matter how many messages you send you won’t get a reply. stop saying it’s fake or ai, i know its weird and you guys are new to it and it seems impossible bc they’re busy but its the same as when they come to weverse and reply to a bunch of people, they have time for that. you will see some members are more active and chatty than others too. please be careful with your words, these are the members’s words. + here’s jumgwon sending a text while on live earlier:

Would you call a crab walk gait a functional neurological disorder? Not so fast. If you encounter someone walk with tiny, sideways shuffling steps, kinda like a crab, it could be a clue. In a striking case just published by Fraiman and colleagues, a crab walk-like helped to uncover a rare but important white matter brain disease called CSF1R-related leukoencephalopathy. Key Points: - A short-stepped laterally swaying crab-like gait may be an early sign of a higher-level gait disorder. - This disorder could originate from the brain’s motor planning centers, and not muscles or nerves. - These gait patterns may signal frontal lobe dysfunction, especially when strength, sensation and coordination remain intact. - When paired w/ behavioral symptoms and frontal white matter changes on MRI, this gait pattern may point to CSF1R-related leukoencephalopathy. - This syndrome is an underrecognized adult-onset leukodystrophy. My take: My mentor used to teach that a great neurologist always walked their patients to the examination room and in many cases he/she would clinch the diagnosis even before the door was shut and the vital signs collected. Here are 5 points that resonated w/ me about this case. 1- A strange walk might be a warning sign. Don't jump to a functional diagnosis if you see a sideways walk. 2- The brain can be the source of walking challenges even when the legs are strong. 3- White matter diseases can show up as a funny walk. Memory and speech challenges may emerge later. 4-Don’t ignore personality or speech changes. Disinhibition, apathy or trouble finding words acould point to a deeper brain condition. 5- A brain MRI and genetic test can unlock the mystery. #parkinson Parkinson's Foundation Norman Fixel Institute for Neurological Diseases

Good morning and where do I start? I’m so proud of the man you’re becoming and I’m so thankful to have you in my life. The first player I met and the first player I had dinner with after I became the receivers coach at Baylor. Yes I’m speaking it into existence but it’s also the feeling I have when I tell you God truly has a calling on your life. The person you are lets me know the lord is and will continue to bless you more than you can imagine. I love you like a son, little brother, nephew, etc…. Played receiver for a big time program like Baylor, played in the NFL, from the great state of Texas but more importantly a GREAT person and man of God. So you have all the tools you need to be successful in this coaching profession but more importantly LIFE! I’m so thankful to be a part of your journey. I’m going to do EVERYTHING in my power with the help of God to make sure you succeed. I told you this and I truly believe it. You’re the next great coach/receivers coach. Love you G and this post doesn’t do justice for how I feel about you or the kind of person you are✊🏾🙏🏾❤️💯 Gavin Holmes

This is Ozumba Mbadiwe way, a very strategic corridor of the state. See the beautiful buildings on the left and right. Just imagine if Julius Berger or even CECC were given the contract to revamp this road from bonny camp down to phase 1. Honestly, if you enter this district, you would think you are in heaven. Below is a picture of how this same place looked under Gov Fashola, and I will also post how it looked under Gov Ambode in the comments. Sometimes it's good to look at where you are coming from to know where you are going. Your past should not look better than your present. Lagos is a great city, but when people see lapses like these, that's why some talk about it with disdain. Every city in the world needs maintenance. If you don't maintain it, it won't look good to the eye. Lagos is a highly visited city for many reasons, and the state of its strategic infrastructure or likely visited parts matters a lot. In fact, it is one of the government's biggest selling points. I know a train is coming here, but trust me, that does not remove the urgent need to repair this road properly with a competent contractor, from Lekki Phase 1 all the way to Bonny Camp. E1 is coming in a few months, and we need to prepare and ensure everywhere looks its best. The high-rises are already there. The city just needs proper roads and greenery to make it truly breathtaking. Road infrastructure should never, ever be downplayed. It can give even a village a premium look, let alone such a strategic corridor. Look at another semi-coastal city like Kolkata. It has similar terrain to Lagos, yet see how they maintain their city. You see the same elements,bridges, metro systems, skyscrapers. That's what maintenance does to a city. It makes it look attractive, organised, and inviting. But when everywhere is left to become tattered, people will call it overrated. Everything is packaging, especially for a city that is constantly in the public eye. I know the governor has a lot on his plate, but this is urgent, especially with E1 only a few months away. The way the environment looks should be a top priority for the government, not only for residents but also because it helps sell the city positively to visitors, investors, and the rest of the world.

This is Ozumba Mbadiwe way, a very strategic corridor of the state. See the beautiful buildings on the left and right. Just imagine if Julius Berger or even CECC were given the contract to revamp this road from bonny camp down to phase 1. Honestly, if you enter this district, you would think you are in heaven.

I just built a Claude Code skill that scores whether your landing page actually keeps your Meta ad's promise 🤯 Drop in your ad and the page it points to. It reads both, scores the "ad scent" from click to page, and finds the exact line where the page breaks the promise that won the click. All inside Claude Code. Perfect for DTC brands and media buyers who pour everything into the ad and the CPA but never grade the seam in between. If you're scaling spend on a winning ad, the click is landing on a page that opens with something slightly different, the ad promised 50% off and the page shows full price, the ad hooked "for oily skin" and the page is a generic homepage, and nothing looks broken, but the visitor feels it and bounces... That gap has a name in conversion work: message match. And you already paid for the click you're losing. Here's what it does: → Drop in your ad (headline, copy, offer, CTA) and the landing-page URL → It fetches the live page and reads what's actually above the fold → Grades 7 continuity dimensions: promise, offer, angle, CTA, audience, proof, visual → Shows your ad's words next to your page's words, so every gap is right there → Rewrites your hero headline so the page keeps the ad's promise → Renders a dashboard with a Match Score out of 100 No guessing why the click bounced. No blaming the creative for a page problem. No buying more traffic to fix a copy problem. What you get: → A Match Score on every ad-to-page pair before you scale → The ad-side vs page-side quotes, side by side, for every leak → A hero rewrite you can paste straight onto the page → A dashboard you can hand to your team or client I'm giving away the full skill completely for free. Built 100% in Claude Code. No API keys. Want the skill? > Like this post > Comment "MATCH" And I'll send it over (must be following so I can DM)

The importance of pointing the AirFanta Wear personal air purifier accurately. You need to point the center of the Wear's airflow at your breathing zone. Otherwise you won't get any benefit from the device. This is just a visualization using the mist from an ultrasonic nebulizer to stand in for unfiltered ambient air. In the demonstration the air is not completely still due to the output of the nebulizer. But the air flow may be similar to cross currents that might be found in indoor settings. AirFanta has shown a number of different ways to position the Wear, but hasn't given exact numbers for distance as far as I know. I'm using a distance of 2 inches or less as a rule of thumb, with the center of the device pointed at my breathing zone. The 3/4 position feels like it's one that people may be the most interested in because it can let you eat while at the same time maintaining a close proximity to the output. The Wear is not meant as a one-to-one replacement for a respirator grade mask. It's best for situations where you were not going to be wearing a mask at all, but would still like to breathe cleaner air. Avoid risk compensation, which is where you take on more risk because you think you are more protected than you actually are. For instance, visiting a nephew sick with measles without an N95 mask because you think the Wear will give you equal protection. Maintaining the correct distance and orientation between the Wear and your breathing zone requires conscious effort. The Wear can reduce your overall exposure to airborne contaminants, but it needs to be used very close to breathing zone and needs to be very accurately centered.

“Daddy, I love you.” Here’s another wonderful example of the earliest form of imaginary play. You’ll note that this initial role playing is not about princesses or superheroes or even community helpers. All that will come later. Instead your child’s first imaginary play is likely to emulate the true hero in their life: YOU. Watch as this little one role plays her mother’s own departure from the house as she heads out on an imaginary shopping trip. She waves goodbye, dangling a plastic container from her arm to emulate a handbag. And she tells her father she loves him. It’s a routine she’s seen play out many times in her own home. It can be humbling to be imitated by your todddler, if only because you learn just how carefully you’re being watched. Your mannerisms, your speech patterns and more are all likely to be reflected. But it can also be a wonderful reminder about your influence as a parent. Every day, you are shaping how your child speaks, acts, and sees the world… even when you don’t think you’re being watched. So remember to be the role model you want to see reflected back to the world through your child. This adorable little shopper was shared to IG by the.golding.girls.

Rest in peace, Sir Garry. There will never, ever be another like you. It is with a incredibly heavy heart that I hear the news of the passing of the greatest of them all, Sir Garfield Sobers. For anyone who loves this beautiful game, Sir Garry wasn’t just a cricketer; he was the ultimate standard of what a cricketer could be. When we talk about all-rounders today, we often look at players who can balance two disciplines. But Sir Garry? He was a master of five. He could bat like a dream, bowl fast-medium with the new ball, switch seamlessly to orthodox left-arm spin, bowl wrist spin, and field like a panther at short leg or in the slips. To watch him walk onto a cricket field, with that loose, rhythmic Caribbean stride, collars turned up, was to watch absolute majesty in motion. He played the game with a sublime joy and a fierce, competitive dignity that defined an entire era. I remember the sheer awe he inspired whenever India played the West Indies. You couldn't take your eyes off him. Even when he was taking the game away from you, you couldn't help but marvel at the genius of the man. His 365 not out stood as a mountain for decades, and those six sixes in an over became the stuff of folklore. Yet, off the field, he was always an absolute gentleman—warm, incredibly generous with his knowledge, and fiercely proud of the game's finest traditions. Cricket has lost its brightest jewel today. The stands are a little quieter, and the game is poorer without him. My deepest condolences go out to his family, his friends, and to every cricket lover across the Caribbean and the world who is mourning this incomparable loss.

A friend of mine just recently got his first gun, a striker fired Glock 19. He is terrified to leave a round chambered. To anyone reading this who has this same fear, I want to alleviate your concerns. I'm going to explain why there is nothing to be afraid of. First and foremost, I fully understand your concern. It's not irrational. And you're not stupid for being nervous about a bullet being aimed at your leg with the striker cocked back under spring tension about an 1/8 of an inch from the primer. I get it. I shared this concern when I was new to carrying. But your fear is due to a lack of understanding of the internal safety features of a modern striker fired handgun. On a properly maintained modern striker fired pistol the striker CANNOT hit the primer on the chambered round without the trigger being pulled. Can't. Not shouldn't. Can't. (If you have any good Sig P320 jokes, this is the proper place to share them) There is a block that the striker will hit and stop if it is released without the trigger being depressed. It works just like a lock and key. There is a channel in the blocker that the striker can pass through if it is in the fire position. It only goes into the fire position if the trigger is pulled which pushes the blocker into the fire position. A spring keeps the blocker firmly in the block position until then. The blocker is a solid piece of steel that won't break. And if your gun is securely in a hard sided Kydex holster nothing can move the trigger unless it is unholstered. Many guns like Glocks have a trigger safety that prevents the trigger from moving due to force of dropping. Your finger has to be on the trigger safety to move it. So the gun cannot fire unless you pull the trigger. And it's easy for you to test this safety feature to see how it works! See the video below. You can try to push the striker forward by moving that piece at the back of the slide forward. That piece is the back of the striker. Push it forward and it will stop. The tip won't come out through the breach. You see it trying to come through but it gets stuck. Now push that little button in. That is the actual blocker. When you push it in you will now be able to move the striker forward through the breach and see how it will strike the primer. You can test this easily every time you disassemble your pistol to verify it is still working. You can break this safety feature by removing the blocker or losing the spring. But if it's there it will work. (You would be the first person in firearms history who has ever lost a spring. Literally the first one. It has never happened before. 😐) But it doesn't come out as part of regular maintenance. You have to disassemble the firing assembly to get it out. That won't happen by accident. And if you do that on purpose you should do this blocker test when you reassemble it to make sure the safety feature is working. My video shows a Glock slide. All Glocks will look like this. Other brands may put the blocker in a different spot or it may be a slightly different shape. But they all (mostly) have the same design. If you test yours as demonstrated and it works like mine does, your gun WILL NOT fire without pulling the trigger. (If you just thought of another P320 joke, this is another good place to toss that out there)

The problem with civnats (a term I’ll stop using in 2026 as it just means neoliberal) is that they act tough and say things like “deport all the criminals and terrorists” but the obvious flaw with that is we don’t know someone is going to becoming a criminal or terrorist until after the act has already been committed. So if you want to end things like stabbing sprees, terrorism, and machete gangs you have to identify the groups doing it (e.g. blacks and Muslims) and apply some level of ethnicity based deportations. Even if you didn’t want blanket remigration you won’t be able to eliminate the problem without making ethnicity and religion a major factor in deportations. I know Konstantin Kisin is smart enough to realise this which makes his motivations for not admitting it suspect but I do believe that Andrew Gold is just a dim toff getting by based on an accent and old boys network.
