Editorial: Manzoor Pashtun and the partisan Pakistani media

Manzoor Pashtun and the partisan Pakistani media
EDITORIAL: It is him who ignited and infused the long-awaited verve in Pashtuns–the worst victims of global war on terror to come together for their national cause–which has become a question of their survival.
The Pashtuns perhaps never in history had come across as monstrous and deadliest a challenge as terrorism is, therefore, they desperately needed a man like him. And it is him who stood in the way of the most suppressive state within state, which has already toppled governments in Pakistan, and event hanged elected Prime Minister. It is him who challenged those who used to behead Pashtuns as if they were not humans but chickens. And it is him who raised his finger at Pakistan's premier intelligence agency, the ISI and also Military Intelligence MI that you cultivated the Taliban in the Pashtun belt. Since the Taliban were provided safe hideouts on the Pashtun soil therefore not only globally it affected Pashtuns' image in a negative way, even in the rest of Pakistan they became untouchables.
Earlier, in Pakistan, Pashtun has usually been looked down on as a traitor, as a RAW, and Afghanistan's agent, however, after the erstwhile uniformed President of Pakistan decided to be a non-Nato ally of the US in its global war on terror, a Pashtun became the denotation of terrorism, and his dress codes, became a mark of extremism.
To keep the Pashtuns pushed into darkness, they were not only made homeless, but also hundreds of their schools were blown up.
Apparently the Taliban did it, however, this is the act of those who write war scripts in this region–Pakistan's GHQ as all the Taliban outfits were cultivated under the very tutelage of this military power center. Hundreds of thousands made mass exodus at the hands of the Taliban, because they not only killed nearly fourteen hundred Pashtun elders who dared to challenge Talibanization in the Pashtun belt, yet at the same time, terrorists from across the Muslim world were mustered up in the Pashtun belt in Pakistan and provided them a haven where from they can launch attacks on coalition forces in Afghanistan. In an interview to The Guardian, Musharraf admitted that he cultivated the Taliban Musharraf to undermine the government of ex-Afghan president Hamid Karzai as Karzai had helped India stab Pakistan in the back.
This looks to be his trick as when it comes to India, Pakistan and the United States interests in Afghanistan, Pakistan is more at war with America than with India. For instance, how many attacks have been carried out on American installations and forces in Afghanistan by Pakistan-backed terrorists and how many attacks have been carried out against India in Afghanistan?
The matter of fact is that Pakistan cannot publicly said that Islamabad is against Washington in this region, however, it raises its fingers at Indian while hit at America.
Pakistan never wants that America must succeed in Afghanistan. To meet this end it needs the Taliban, yet at the same time, the presence of the Taliban on Pashtuns' soil has given serious blow back and as a result now thousands of Pashtuns have taken to the streets against the overt and covert support of Pakistan's military to the Taliban.
Apparently the Pashtuns' anger boiled after a handsome and a young Pashtun, Naqeebullah Mehsud, was killed in a fake police encounter in Karachi by a senior police officer who has been accused of killing more than 440 people in encounters.
To condemn Naqeebullah's killing, thousands of Pashtuns took to the streets. They started not only seeking justice for Naqeeb, but started questioning the role of Pakistan's military in the American-led war on terror, its support to the Taliban and eventually dislocating over 1.5 million Pashtuns from their ancestral lands.
In such a critical juncture, it is Manzoor Pashtun, a young man, just 24-year old, who comes from a humble background, gathered courage, and challenged Pakistan's policies towards militancy. He ignited such a verve of Pashtun nationalism, which unnerved Pakistan. Being taken aback by Pashtun Spring spearheaded by Manzoor Pashtun, Pakistan's mainstream media was not allowed to provide coverage to the Pashtun Long March and Islamabad sit-in.
For two months mainstream media took the road of "blackout", however, once it was given a green signal, the media started taking Manzoor Pashtun's interviews, while still not covering Pashtun protests.
The way the mainstream media interviews him is a deliberate attempt to belittle him. When it comes to mass communication, political talks, reporting and much more, they must be for connecting citizens and improve the quality of public's opinions and make them aware who is responsible for their troubles, however, in the story of Pashtun protests, the media itself became a partisan, the guardian of national interests, a vague term, and rushed to save the staggering and falling image of Pakistan's security establishment–Pashtuns hold a tarnished image of the military headquarter and most frequently raise this slogan: Ye Jo Dehshatgardi Hay Iskay Peachy Wardi Hay, which metaphorically means that military and terrorism are synonymous."
As Pakistani society is fracturing along multiple lines, the trend of media it started clinging to, will make political talk and language more fraught. The problem is that all the big media houses are based in Punjab and are owned by them, which has always adopted a step mother role when it comes to reporting in the Pashtun belt. The problem becomes more complex when media persons increasingly correspond to their pre-held beliefs and notions and try to impose their own versions of beliefs on social, cultural, and political issues. In such an environment this becomes quite clear to say that the media in Pashtun case has become a partisan and it has shrunk the landscape instead of widening it.
Therefore, Manzoor Pashtun needs to create distance from this media. He needs to talk to international media which will provide him a balanced time as they will never misuse the "media gate keeping" power. Other leaders of the Pashtun Protection Movement such as Dr. Said Alam Mehsud, Ali Wazir and Muhsin Dawar, can keep continue talking to mainstream media in Pakistan as they know their biaseness, however, for Manzoor, it doesn't look fruitful to talk to such media a media, which is subjective and bias. The thousands of Pashtuns in whose eyes he stands an enviable "hero" cannot see downed by the partisan media persons who invite him to their talk shows and then belittle him by treating him unfairly.

The Economist on Harper
The Economist magazine has an interesting article on Prime Minister Stephen Harper, which you should check out.
(And I am not pushing the article because I happened to be quoted in it.)
Posted by Gerry Nicholls at 11:37 AM
Mainstream Media Alert: When you just have to have a negative comment about Harper, you can always count on Gerry Nichols.
CanadianSense said...
This article appears to be written from a Liberal worldview.
You would expect to find this author to be employed by some left wing group employed as a revisionist in the history department.
I agree with CanadianSense.
The article -- unattributed to anyone, as far as I could see -- reads like a Liberal press release criticizing the government.
-- Gabby in QC
OK, so I tried to post another comment at The Economist site -- what I think are inaccuracies in the article, but I couldn't post the comment, for some reason. Maybe too many links?
Anyway, if Mr. Nicholls allows, I'll post those two remaining inaccuracies here.
Inaccuracy 4: From the article "scrapped a Liberal child-care scheme, replacing it with tax credits for having children"
Actually, Canadian parents can benefit from the following benefits:
http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/bnfts/cctb/menu-eng.html
The Canada Child Tax Benefit (CCTB), a tax-free monthly payment made to eligible families to help them with the cost of raising children under age 18.
The CCTB may include the National Child Benefit Supplement (NCBS), the federal government's contribution to the National Child Benefit initiative.
The CCTB may also include the Child Disability Benefit (CDB), a tax-free benefit for families who care for a child under age 18 who has a severe and prolonged impairment in physical or mental functions.
In addition to the Child Tax Benefit, the Conservative government implemented the Universal Child Care Benefit (UCCB)
http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/bnfts/uccb-puge/menu-eng.html, which is designed to help Canadian families by supporting their child care choices through direct financial support.
The UCCB is for children under the age of 6 years and is paid in instalments of $100 per month per child.
So, to say the Conservatives replaced a child-care scheme, which BTW the Liberals had been promising since 1993, with "tax credits for having children" is inaccurate.
And the final inaccuracy, according to me of course, in The Economist article ...
Inaccuracy 5: "Quebec, which he officially recognised as a "nation" in 2006 (a cause he had previously opposed …"
First of all, the PM presented a motion that stated "this House recognizes that Québécois form a nation within a united Canada" which is not the same as saying the territory known as Quebec constitutes a nation.
http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2006/11/22/harper-quebec.html and http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/11/23/world/main2207543.shtml?source=RSSattr=HOME_2207543
Furthermore, what is left untold in this article is the fact then-candidate to the Liberal party leadership Michael Ignatieff was the first to bring forward the nation question.
Seeing the growing opposition within his party, Ignatieff first backed off somewhat, and when the PM brought forward his motion in the House to obviate one from the separatist Bloc, Ignatieff then cried victory, once again owning the nation notion.
Ignatieff's proposal had initially threatened to split the Liberal party, so in effect, PM Harper saved Ignatieff and the Liberals a right royal feud among their ranks.
What Stephen Harper, at the time of the early 90s' failed Meech and Charlottetown Accords, had previously opposed was giving Quebec special status among the 10 provinces.
With the passage of more than a decade, Mr. Harper's position changed. Is that so unusual? How many of us hold exactly the same ideas in our late forties that we held in our late twenties?
But as L. Ian Macdonald, former speechwriter to former PM Brian Mulroney, explains: "The Conservatives, from Sir John A. Macdonald to Stephen Harper, are the party of classical federalism. The Liberals, from Lester Pearson to Paul Martin, are the party of centralizing federalism."
http://tinyurl.com/4axkak8
I'll leave it there.
Hey, thanks, Mr. Nicholls.
Gordie Canuk said...
Great article and kudos to you for posting it. No surprise that you're getting a lot of negative feedback on it though.
I think a lot of CPC members endorse the PM's M.O. of appealing to Canadian's more liberal values to win at the ballot box...given a majority government I think the article is right, Harper would be far bolder in pursuing a more conservative and libertarian agenda.
And thanks for the fodder on Canadian Soapbox
Everybody knows why Harper is leaning left except for you Gerry. (real conservative)

ARTHUR MEYER firmly believed that the layering of starch granules corresponded to the alternation of day and night, and this belief is still shared by the authors of modern text-books. If this were true, then layers should disappear when starch granules develop under constant outer conditions of illumination, temperature and moisture. The only positive result of such an experiment was reported by van de Sande-Bakhuyzen for wheat. All other results appear to be negative. Salter found layers when starch granules grew in darkness, Fischer observed them after constant illumination, and according to Küster more than two layers could be deposited during one day.

The symposium Transpersonal>Postnormal Times will be held from 10:00am to 5:00pm on Saturday, 15 December 2018.
Participants include Oreet Ashery, Revital Cohen & Tuur Van Balen, Merlinda Bobis, Patrick D. Flores, Eisa Jocson, The Karrabing Film Collective, Dana Klisanin, Leslie Kulesh, Andy Lacey, Russ Ligtas, Raquel de Loyola, Elizabeth A. Povinelli, Mark Salvatus, Evelyn Taocheng Wang, and César H. Villanueva.
Transpersonal, instructions proposes to work within the cultural context of Manila as part of a transregional conversation. The term transpersonal relays states of consciousness beyond the limits of personal and artistic identity. These may include peak and spiritual experiences including near-death phenomena, nomophobia and political isolation. Curatorially, transpersonal contains an awareness above the usual remits of individuality brought on by the experience of a social crisis related to spiritual, ethical and relational extremes of art and contemporary life.
The symposium will feature a keynote presentation from Elizabeth A. Povinelli of the Karrabing Film Collective. Full line-up of speakers and other event details will be posted on the Vargas Museum Facebook Event Page soon.

Transpersonal>Postnormal Times is a one-day public symposium to support the exhibition Transpersonal, instructions. The symposium will be held on 15 December from 10am to 5pm and includes public events, lectures, instructions, panel meditations alongside sonic scores in the open exchange of the project. The symposium centers on the changing conditions for artists practising today in Manila and surrounding provinces and those working outside of the Philippines.
Registration can be completed online: http://bit.ly/Transpersonal15Dec. The symposium is free and open to the public. Priority seating will be given to those who register early and online.
10:50 ─ 11:35 Keynote by Dr. Elizabeth A. Povinelli, Karrabing Film Collective — Art Collectivity: Not Why, but What For?
Transpersonal, instructions is an important new commission at Jorge B. Vargas Museum and Filipiniana Research Center. Participants include Oreet Ashery, Revital Cohen & Tuur Van Balen, Merlinda Bobis, Patrick D. Flores, Eisa Jocson, The Karrabing Film Collective, Dana Klisanin, Leslie Kulesh, Russ Ligtas, Raquel de Loyola, Elizabeth A. Povinelli, Mark Salvatus, Evelyn Taocheng Wang and César H. Villanueva. The project is an evolving transnational research project that engages with public lectures, exhibition making, education, sonic scores and publishing in contemporary art. The exhibition arises from a series of public lectures at the ICA in London on the production of psychotechnologies, cyber addictions, material feminisms, citizenship and bioinsecurity. Within the political and environmental present, discursive forms of governance are seldom disrupted. Confronting neoliberal capitalism involves undoing a deeper canon of the so–called Western narratives of universalization and automation. Transpersonal, instructions encourages a binding thread that resists and resets a worldview on uneasiness. It is partly proposing a challenge to the current world order by providing a window into anthropological entanglements, for example those affecting indigenous lives.
The exhibition will be from 14 December 2018 to 1 February 2019. For updates about the exhibition, please go to Transpersonal, instructions Facebook event page.

Winding back the clock to remind us of our humble beginnings, our journey began with a big idea and a passion to see it through.
The exciting adventure began on the Gold Coast in early 2016 when Anthony Montenegro, the founder of Mont Avenue watches, visualised a brand that offered a mesmerizing and fashionable range of products, that not only inspired the customer but also captivated them.
It was a typical Sunday breakfast at a local café where Anthony merged his last name to become Mont Avenue. Simple yet effective, Anthony knew that Mont Avenue could capture his vision. As they say, the rest is history.
Through many hours of sketching, designing and perfecting an exclusive watch surfaced. It was refined, fresh and contemporary. It was elegant, classy and sophisticated. It was the start of the Mont Avenue Collection.
Our vision at Mont Avenue will remain on crafting and producing modern timepieces which stay classic through time and won't break the bank.
It began with four versatile colours that could be worn by both men and women. No matter the occasion our timepieces were designed to suit all of them. As the story continues, we can't wait to share new products and a range of leather goods.
If there is one thing we want to share, it's that life is all about timing. Time is our most valuable possession; you can never get more time. So, if you love life, make your time here beautiful.

Q: Send dynamic Fields data from one component to another I am using reactive form to dynamically create some fields, these fields are sort of nested dynamic fields first I am creating an array and then according to size of that newly created array I am generating some other input fields after getting the data into the fields now I want to send the data to another component.I was trying to use viewProviders option here but for some reasons its not working here.

In Capturing Nature, we travel back to a time when photography was revolutionising science, art and society.
These never-before-seen images dating from 1857 to 1893 have been printed from the Australian Museum's collection of glass plate negatives and are some of Australia's earliest natural history photographs. Sitting at the nexus of science and art, they tell both the story of pioneering research as well as the advent of photography in the young colony less than 20 years after the birth of photography in Europe.
With rich, silvery, large-format prints, period cameras and some of the original skeletons and taxidermied animals featured in the photographs, Capturing Nature brings to life the story of one of humankind's greatest inventions and a Victorian obsession with immortality.
For more information about the exhibition and ticket prices, visit the Australian Museum's website.

At SXSW18: ON HER SHOULDERS
The Yazidis are a Kurdish religious minority that has recently been displaced from their northern Iraq homeland by ISIS. They make up about half a million of the 60 million global refugees. Starting in 2014, ISIS has waged genocide on the Yazidis, slaughtering thousands, imprisoning girls and young women in sex slavery, and forcing conversions. On Her Shoulders tells the story of Nadia Murad Basee Taha, a young woman who escaped sex slavery and is now an activist for the Yazidis, fighting to bring legal action against ISIS in international court.
On Her Shoulders is simultaneously a celebration of Nadia's courage and heroism (she perseveres through constant death threats) and a glimpse into how human rights' "celebrities" are created and used. Furthermore, it is a criticism of the international community's collective inability to more effectively counter the work of ISIS (if beheadings and child sex slavery and rape won't move us to greater action, what will?). Thankfully, Nadia isn't alone. She has a powerful team around her including Murad Ismael, executive director of Yazda (a global organization supporting Yazidis around the world), Ahmed Khudida Burjus, deputy executive director of Yazda, Amal Clooney (famed international and human rights lawyer), and even the doc's director Alexandria Bombach. They all, in unique ways, amplify Nadia's witness.
An early goal of Nadia and her team is to address the UN General Assembly and plea for greater support of Yazidi refugees and legal action against ISIS generals. The film follows Nadia and her team as they gain international support and, essentially, lobby for the privilege of addressing the General Assembly, fine-tuning her speech through numerous appearances and press interviews.
On Her Shoulders also forces us to consider the notion of celebrity. There is reference to Malala Yousafzai, another young woman who took a stand against violent religious extremism. The doc shows the role that the media plays in both amplifying and exploiting stories like Nadia's and Malala's. Consider the countless interviews that begin with the apology, "I know this will be difficult/painful/unfair, but will you please tells us what happened to you while you were in ISIS captivity?" Each time, Nadia must relive those horrors for the (ratings?) benefit of her host.
In talking about her film, Bombach commented, "I think with Nadia, she is telling her story over and over and over again, and I didn't want to just focus on that story. I wanted to focus on what it's like to have to tell that story. It took a piece of her every time." But, of course, humanity can't (won't) be set free from the curse of ISIS until the truth of ISIS is told by women like Nadia. On Her Shoulders reveals the toll that that truth-telling takes on these survivors and their supporters.
On Her Shoulders won the U.S. Documentary Directing Award at Sundance and is featured in SXSW's Festival Favorites section.

Honor code spreads among Korean universities
HOME Social Issues
Shin Hyo-jae
At Yonsei University's matriculation ceremony on Feb. 24, incoming freshmen were required to sign the "Student Honor Declaration." Honor codes similar to that of Yonsei are currently emerging in Korean universities as a new way to combat old academic problems such as plagiarism and cheating.
Though the contents vary from place to place, an honor code expresses the basic principles an individual should abide by to keep the honor of an assembly. In an academic context, the code is a vow of disengagement of any activity that may damage the university's academic integrity. The honor code was first adopted in 1840 at the University of Virginia, then spread to Harvard and Stanford University and eventually throughout the entire U.S. The autonomous integrity upheld by the students helped maintain and create a more prestigious image of the university. Up until last year, military academies and the Handong Global University in Gyeongbuk were the only Korean universities with honor codes.
However, this year, more Korean universities, including Seoul National University (SNU), are incorporating the academic honor code. The College of Natural Sciences of SNU studied honor code policies last year, and decided to introduce one to the Class of 2017 during its freshmen orientation. The students wrote the given honor code by hand and sealed it with a signature, vowing to preserve academic integrity.
"This is only the first year of its implementation, but we expect the honor code to expand within SNU," said the director of College of Natural Sciences.
Compared to SNU, Yonsei University introduced its honor code to the entire Class of 2017. The code reads as follows: "I will participate in on-campus and academic life with a sincere and honest attitude. I will be considerate of social minorities and aim for gender equality, etc." This contains articles concerning academics, student life and social values.
At Korea University, where the honor code was established in 2015, it is only applied when students take unsupervised tests. Before the students take the test, they handwrite the code and sign it as a declaration that they will not take advantage of the test's lack of supervision.
"Though the code exists, I have not yet experienced it," said an Economics student at Korea University. "I don't think it is a good idea to leave students unsupervised since for many, the urge to get better grades is greater than that of maintaining academic integrity."
The current issue with Korea University's honor code is that it is more merly encouraged rather than actually implemented. The decision to conduct an unsupervised test is up to the professor, and not many choose to do so. Professors who do not choose to utilize the honor code doubt its effectiveness in alleviating misconduct.
Although diverse opinions have been expressed concerning the effectiveness of the honor code, this new approach is expected to further encourage students to maintain their academic integrity.
"We hope to encourage and help students maintain the conscience and honor of a scholar," said the director of SNU College of Natural Sciences.

Abstract — To identify the prevalence of traumatic brain injury (TBI), posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and pain in Veterans from Operation Iraqi Freedom/Operation Enduring Freedom/Operation New Dawn (OIF/OEF/OND), Veterans who received any inpatient or outpatient care from Veterans Health Administration (VHA) facilities from 2009 to 2011 were studied. A subset of Veterans was identified who were diagnosed with TBI, PTSD, and/or pain (head, neck, or back) as determined by their International Classification of Diseases-9th Revision-Clinical Modification codes. Between fiscal years 2009 and 2011, 613,391 Veterans accessed VHA services at least once (age: 31.9 +/– 9.6 yr). TBI diagnosis in any 1 year was slightly less than 7%. When data from 3 years were pooled, 9.6% were diagnosed with TBI, 29.3% were diagnosed with PTSD, and 40.2% were diagnosed with pain. The full polytrauma triad expression (TBI, PTSD, and pain) was diagnosed in 6.0%. Results show that increasing numbers of Veterans from OIF/OEF/OND accessed VHA over a 3 year period. Among those with a TBI diagnosis, the majority also had a mental health disorder, with approximately half having both PTSD and pain. While the absolute number of Veterans increased by over 40% from 2009 to 2011, the proportion of Veterans diagnosed with TBI and the high rate of comorbid PTSD and pain in this population remained relatively stable.
Key words: military healthcare, military Veterans, Operation Enduring Freedom, Operation Iraqi Freedom, Operation New Dawn, pain, posttraumatic stress disorder, PTSD, TBI, traumatic brain injury.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been termed the "signature injury" of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan , but posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and pain are also commonly reported in this patient cohort. The more defining condition associated with these wars, however, is better captured by the term "polytrauma," which describes two or more injuries to organ systems or parts of the body that create potentially life-threatening injuries and/or disruption to physical, mental, and psychological functioning . That is, servicemembers (SMs) and Veterans returning from these wars with TBI more often than not also have other war-related medical problems.
Prior studies have identified TBI, PTSD, and pain to be the major comorbid elements most frequently seen in those previously deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan who return with polytrauma [3–4]. This constellation of comorbidities has been referred to as the "polytrauma triad." Investigators have noted that among SMs treated at an inpatient polytrauma rehabilitation unit within the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), 80 to 93 percent were diagnosed with TBI, 81 to 96 percent with pain, and 44.0 to 52.6 percent with a mental health disorder [3,5]. Those with deployment-related difficulties from Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF), Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF), and Operation New Dawn (OND) receiving care in VA outpatient polytrauma programs were diagnosed with three or more postconcussive (TBI) symptoms 67 to 97 percent of the time, complained of persistent pain issues 82 to 97 percent of the time, and were diagnosed with PTSD 68 to 71 percent of the time [4,6]. The Appendix (available online only) outlines the official locales and durations of these conflicts. A number of other potentially disabling concomitant conditions can also accompany the initial TBI exposure and add to the complexity of diagnosis and management, including substance abuse, depression, and generalized anxiety disorder .
A 2009 national sample of all OIF/OEF Veterans who received VA care during that year revealed that 6.7 percent had been diagnosed with TBI . In this TBI group, 89 percent had a concomitant mental health disorder, with the most frequent diagnosis being PTSD (73%); 70 percent had a concomitant pain disorder; and 54 percent had both PTSD and pain (the polytrauma triad). These data are of great importance in providing a "snapshot" of polytrauma nationally. However, they reflect only 1 year of the VA's experience, and a broader, multiyear evaluation is needed to better understand the phenomenon. Other investigators have looked at longer time spans, but these studies have focused on relatively small, local cohorts [3–4]. The present study represents the first examination of a large, national sample over a multiyear time frame. To this end, the Polytrauma Blast-Related Injury (PTBRI) Quality Enhancement Research Initiative's (QUERI's) ongoing VA systemwide, longitudinal tracking data of OIF/OEF/OND Veterans with TBI sequelae and other coexisting conditions were queried and the findings were analyzed [8–10].
The study population consisted of all Veterans who received any inpatient or outpatient care from Veterans Health Administration (VHA) facilities in fiscal years (FYs) (October to September) 2009, 2010, or 2011. VA policy requires that all OIF/OEF/OND Veterans who seek initial service of any kind in the VA be screened for deployment-related TBI (as well as PTSD), and those who report trauma exposure with altered consciousness, peritraumatic sequelae (e.g., dizziness, headache, ongoing confusion), and ongoing neurobehavioral symptoms be referred for a comprehensive TBI evaluation. Within this cohort, a subset of Veterans who were diagnosed with TBI; PTSD; and/or common head, neck, or back pain, as determined by their International Classification of Diseases-9th Revision-Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM)  codes, was identified (see Table 1 for specific ICD-9-CM coding associated with each diagnosis). As in any healthcare setting, Veterans were assigned ICD-9-CM codes by their clinicians at the time of their inpatient or outpatient care episodes. The specific diagnoses of TBI, PTSD, or pain were made at any point in their medical care received at a VA facility, not necessarily in a specialty clinic. Data from the VA FY2009–11 National Patient Care Database (NPCD) patient treatment files and outpatient care files were used to identify patients in the cohort diagnosed with the conditions of interest for this research, including TBI, PTSD, and/or pain.
Polytrauma diagnoses and associated International Classification of Diseases-9th Revision-Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) codes.
Descriptive statistics were used to report the mean incidence of the diagnoses of TBI, PTSD, and pain (head, neck, or back), both in isolation and in combination. Percentages were computed. All analyses were performed using SAS version 9.2 (SAS Institute Inc; Cary, North Carolina).
For FY2009–11, 613,391 unique OIF/OEF/OND Veterans accessed VHA inpatient or outpatient services at least once. Table 2 describes demographic characteristics. Overall, the Veterans were 31.9 ± 9.6 yr old (mean ± standard deviation). Of the Veterans, 51.8 percent had at least one of the three polytrauma diagnoses (TBI, PTSD, or pain) during the triennium.

–Urban: –1,000 people per square mile. Rural: Any non-urban or non-highly rural area. Highly rural: <7 people per square mile.
FY = fiscal year, SD = standard deviation.
While the incidence of a TBI diagnosis in any one year's data was slightly less than 7 percent, when data from 3 years were pooled, 9.6 percent or 58,885 unique OIF/OEF/OND Veterans were diagnosed with TBI in at least one of those years. This apparent disparity between individual and cumulative years relates to the fact that 1 year of data measures any diagnosis assigned during that FY, while the cumulative prevalence takes into account all visits over the 3-year period. Similarly, when pooling all 3 years, 29.3 percent or 179,723 Veterans were diagnosed with PTSD and 40.2 percent or 246,883 Veterans were diagnosed with head, neck, or back pain. The incidence of the full polytrauma triad expression of TBI, PTSD, and pain was diagnosed in 6.0 percent (36,800) of all Veterans. These increases reflect the variability of the services provided to each OIF/OEF/OND Veteran during any given year and the accompanying diagnoses for those services. The presence of these diagnoses could not be associated with the etiology or timing of the causative event(s) or combat-relatedness. Of note, only 0.8 percent of all 613,391 OIF/OEF/OND Veterans received a diagnosis of isolated TBI (i.e., unaccompanied by either pain or PTSD). Other combinations of these diagnoses may be found in Table 3 and Figures 1 and 2.
*Mutually exclusive diagnoses include nonoverlapping categories of diagnoses. For example, "TBI Only" refers to diagnosis of TBI in particular time period mentioned in column, but no diagnoses of PTSD or pain during that time period. In "Any Diagnoses" categories, each row stands on its own. Throughout this table, pain categories refer to only diagnoses of head, neck, or back pain.

Since many Veterans access care on an ongoing basis, oftentimes over multiple FYs, the total number of OIF/OEF/OND Veterans receiving care for these 3 years was higher (n = 613,391) than the number of unique Veterans who accessed care over any of the 3 years of the analyses (FY2009 = 327,388, FY2010 = 398,453, and FY2011 = 471,383). The number of Veterans accessing services increased by 122 percent from FY2009 to FY2010 and 118 percent from FY2010 to FY2011, with the total increase over the triennium being 144 percent. The relative proportions of Veterans with the polytrauma triad did not change meaningfully across any or all of the years.
This nationwide, multiyear investigation is notable in three aspects. First, the data are strikingly consistent from year to year in all diagnostic categories and dyad and triad combinations. Second, the prevalence of TBI is lower than previously reported, in particular for the diagnosis of isolated TBI (Figure 2). Third, among those Veterans with clinician-diagnosed TBI, we find that mental health, particularly PTSD, and pain-related comorbidity is the norm. Both the individual year and pooled 3-year prevalence of all diagnoses are considerably smaller than ??estimates that have been reported in either self-report survey or single-center (TBI) studies [4,12]. Of note, the survey work was based on self-report of the Veteran's or SM's recollection of the injury and related symptoms as measured by in-person written or telephone surveys and were not exclusive to VA-enrolled Veterans [13–15]. This carries an inherent risk of false positives and false negatives, as well as sampling differences . The gold standard for TBI diagnosis is a clinical interview and evaluation with a specialist (as opposed to self-report surveys, imaging, or laboratory testing) because of the difficulty obtaining accurate information on TBI history through brief self-report measures and no defined physiologic or biologic marker . Self-report measures may overestimate the rate of TBI compared with clinical assessment, just as they have been found to overestimate the rate of PTSD relative to gold standard interviews [17–18]. On the other hand, clinical assessment is also subject to error, and in fact, these medical diagnoses may be underreported in VA records [18–19]. Those individuals who have had an OIF/OEF/OND deployment-related TBI, but who had no acute or persistent sequelae, should still be recorded as having a diagnosis of TBI but on rare occasions may not receive a referral for specialty TBI care, or more typically, even if referred, patients may elect to not follow up with the specialist. The VA is currently reporting that about 95 percent of these Veterans are successfully screened and that about 75 percent of those who screen positive undergo comprehensive evaluation . While it is most likely that the diagnosis of TBI is appropriately entered into the NPCD system for those individuals with persistent symptoms who are referred and/or seen by the specialty programs for care, it is unclear whether those individuals who have sustained a TBI but have had complete resolution of symptoms are consistently recorded for this exposure in the system. In sum, while our findings describe the proportion of OIF/OEF/OND Veteran VA users with TBI diagnosis in the VA FY2009–11 administrative data, they may not describe the actual incidence of TBI or the impairment or disability related to TBI in the population of all OIF/OEF/OND Veterans.
The findings presented in this report should be taken in context with potential limitations. First, we did not examine the universe of possible TBI-related comorbidities but rather focused on mental health and select pain-related problems in order to better characterize the prevalence of the polytrauma triad in VA users with TBI. Indeed, the difficulties inherent to postdeployment syndrome extend beyond the polytrauma triad to include these other conditions . Second, the findings are based on administrative data, which may be limited by errors in documentation of the patient characteristics, diagnoses, or procedures. Details on the severity of the TBI are difficult to reliably obtain from the administrative record, so while the majority of Veterans with a diagnosis of TBI are likely to have mild TBI, we were not able to report results separately based on the severity of the injury. Additionally, we did not have available information on diagnoses of OIF/OEF/OND Veterans who did not use VA services. As one would expect across the 3 years of this study, the overall assessment and care of OIF/OEF/OND Veterans with TBI, PTSD, and/or pain have experienced an ongoing process of service enhancements under the guidance of the VHA's Polytrauma System of Care. These improvements in service have included educational initiatives, clinical training, and translational research that have informed both specialty and primary care clinicians. While these developments are likely to have improved the overall awareness and diagnostic precision for the entire polytrauma triad, this may not be as easily reflected in the data analyzed. While changes in combat injury patterns may have been present and increased the incidence of the TBI-pain dyad, it is also feasible that the increased emphasis on pain awareness and education had an effect. Of note, while this investigation used more than 50 ICD-9-CM codes for pain diagnoses, numerous other pain codes were not included. In contrast, the longstanding and pervasive emphasis in the VA system regarding PTSD and other mental health disorders [20,22–23] appears to have already sensitized VA providers to the diagnosis of PTSD in patients with TBI.
The challenges of using ICD-9-CM codes to characterize prevalence of various health conditions across large healthcare systems are formidable and may have contributed to inaccuracies in this investigation. As Lorence has noted, imprecise coding has become more of a factor because physicians are asked to make coding decisions directly into electronic records and may code differently than coding specialists . Lorence also noted considerable regional variations in coding practices that have important implications for national studies and need to be considered carefully . Others have noted problems with coding of injury causation , as well as issues involved with inconsistent PTSD diagnosis and coding . The present study did not attempt to control for TBI causation or time of injury. This limitation may add "noise" to the results, and future investigations are needed to address this effectively. While standardized training and certification programs are currently in place for medical coding, the accuracy of coding would be further enhanced by formalizing diagnostic criteria. This could be accomplished using normative, standardized instruments with proven reliability, such as the Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale  or the Visual Analog Scale for Pain . Others have more bluntly stated that "Relying on medical records staff to code cases using [ICD-9-CM] numbers without providing some direction as to an appropriate code is a major part of the problem" and called for an overarching primary TBI diagnosis with more detailed coding added if warranted . The possibility that the VA's emphasis on educating providers about TBI may have resulted in heightened use of TBI codes, even though the bulk of symptoms could be accounted for with a mental health diagnosis, has also been raised . The difficulty in coding is also magnified because TBI, most particularly mild TBI, is a historical diagnosis not even requiring the presence of current symptoms.
This investigation represents the first multiyear, system-wide analysis of TBI, mental health, and pain-related comorbidities and triad diagnostic trends from the VHA. The findings support that large and increasing numbers of Veterans from the OIF/OEF/OND wars accessed the VHA for healthcare over a 3-year period. Of those Veterans, approximately 10 percent were diagnosed with TBI, 30 percent with PTSD, and 40 percent with pain, and approximately 6 percent had all three diagnoses or the polytrauma triad. Among those with a TBI diagnosis, the majority had a clinician-diagnosed mental health disorder and approximately half of those with TBI had both PTSD and pain. Overall, while the absolute number of OIF/OEF/OND Veterans increased by over 40 percent between FY2009 and FY2011, the relative proportion of Veterans diagnosed with TBI and the high rate of comorbid PTSD and pain in this population remained relatively stable.

Seeds In A Dark Fruit Sky
Non-Fiction Short Stories from Haiti
Book Design and Art Update
March 2, 2021 / lostbtwnthepages
First of all, I must apologize for the lack of communication up to this point. A lot of things have happened in the last two years, not the least of which is 2020 and the dumpster fire that ensued. The translation edit was complete in April 2019 and our talented book designer (Ted) began the book design process while simultaneously working two full time jobs. He is continuing to work on it and will finish by May 2021.
On top of everything else happening in 2020, in August my house burned down in a California wildfire. There was no warning and we lost everything except our cats and three quilts. Months of processing and rebuilding has given me the space and perspective needed to move on from this trauma, but my heart still breaks because the original art and files for this book project were also lost in the fire. The original cover art, the charcoal illustrations, the notebooks with my initial interview notes, everything is gone.
The good news is the stories and charcoal art were saved online in the cloud. The bad news is we cannot find any high resolution files or scans of the cover art. Both Ted (he is also our cover designer) and I have looked everywhere we can think of online, but neither of us can find the files. We are continuing to look, but our back-up plan is to pay the original artist to recreate the art and start over.
The book design will be done in May. After proofreading and finessing, in June we will print proof copies and send them to book reviewers. After that the book launch date will be announced and we will start preparing the book for pre-order and launch.
On another note, we now have a publishing imprint! It's called Lost Shoe Publishing and I hope we can print more books in the future. Check out our new publishing house here.
I've said this before, but this has indeed been a long journey. I want to thank you all for sticking with us and believing in this project. Thank you for your support. This project is approaching six years old and it isn't even published yet, but we can see the finish line. Please reach out if you have any questions, and we look forward to announcing more updates in the near future.

marriages have been born in the dental office.
Gender played a distinct role in a dentist's experience with office romance.
One in four male dentists admits to becoming involved with a coworker, while only one in ten female dentists says the same thing.
Rural dentists were the most conservative when it came to dating members of their staff, while suburban dentists were most likely to become involved with team members.
Specialists and general dentists had relatively similar experiences with dental practice romance.
In the map at left, the redder states reported higher levels of office romance.
"It happened more in the old days. I've been in practice for 37 years. During the 70's and 80's it was quite common for office affairs to take place.
"At a time in my life, when it felt like I needed a sympathetic ear, I found my dental assistant to be loving and caring. A relationship developed.

Q: SignalR - Unable to get property 'client' of undefined or null reference I am having problems using SignalR in an existing Web Application.  I am receiving the javaruntime exception "Unable to get property 'client' of undefined or null reference" because when I try to retrieve my hub from the $.connection object, it is returning null.
Before I post my code, I wanted to supply some background and some things I have already tried:
 - If I run the project locally, everything works fine.  It is only when I deploy my project to the IIS location that I have issues.
 - I have verified my hub name is correctly camel cased.  Again, it works fine locally, and only throws the error after I have deployed the project to IIS.
 - I have confirmed that all my javascript has successfully loaded.  The JQuery library is only referenced once, and loads fine.  So does the signalR javascript, and the dynamically created signalr/hubs.
 - If I create a new project, and run the same code as a new web application running as a web app under the existing web application, everything works fine (same code is being used, just in a new project).
Anyone have any thoughts on what the problem is?
Hub Code:
Imports Microsoft.AspNet.SignalR

Public Class TestHub
    Inherits Hub

    Public Sub Connect()
        Try
            Clients.Caller.onConnect(Context.ConnectionId)
        Catch ex As Exception
            LogMessage("ERROR Connecting to Hub", 0, 0, "ERROR")
        End Try
    End Sub

End Class

    <script src="Scripts/jquery-1.6.4.min.js"></script>

    <!--Reference the autogenerated SignalR hub script. -->
    <script src="signalr/hubs"></script>

        $(function () {
            // Declare a proxy to reference the hub.
            var thub = $.connection.testHub;

            registerClientMethods(thub);

            // Start Hub
            $.connection.hub.start().done(function () {
                registerEvents(thub);
                thub.server.connect();
                alert('connected!');
            });
        });

        function registerClientMethods(thub) {
            thub.client.onConnect = function (id) {
                $('#lblConnectionID').text(id);
            }
        }

        function registerEvents() {

        }
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">

Global.asax Code:
Imports System.Web.Routing
Imports Microsoft.AspNet.SignalR

Public Class Global_asax
  Inherits System.Web.HttpApplication
    Sub Application_Start(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
    ' Fires when the application is started
    Try
    ' Register the default hubs route: ~/signalr/hubs
    RouteTable.Routes.MapHubs()
    Catch ex As Exception
    LogMessage("ERROR initializing SignalR: " & ex.Message, 0, 0, "ERROR")
    End Try
End Sub
...

So now, when I go to my page SignalRTest.aspx, the line thub.client.onConnected = ... throws a javascript error: "Unable to get property 'client' of undefined or null reference"
Does Anyone know what might be causing this?
Thank you.
[EDIT] - After comparing the working signalr/hubs.js file with the non-working file, I found the following piece missing:
proxies.testHub= this.createHubProxy('testHub');
    proxies.testHub.client = { };
    proxies.testHub.server = {
        connect: function () {
            return proxies.transactionHub.invoke.apply(proxies.testHub, $.merge(["Connect"], $.makeArray(arguments)));
         }
    };

Any thoughts on why this would not get included in the signalr/hubs.js file?  I am calling the MapHubs() in Global.asax...
Thanks!
[FIX]
I deleted the Bin folder of my destination web application, and redeployed.  Still not sure what was different.  All the .DLLs are the same.  It now works though.  Odd.

A: I encountered this error when trying to debug to run a web application after publishing from VS 2012 to IIS 7.5. After some hair pulling, I realised that the problem was the fact that I did not change the jquery script and signalr paths when deploying.
To solve the issue I had to add the virtual directory name ("TestingChat") to the path of the script tags for jquery and signalr.
E.g. From this:
<script src="Scripts/jquery-1.8.2.min.js" ></script>
<script src="/signalr/hubs"></script>

To
<script src="/TestingChat/Scripts/jquery-1.8.2.min.js" ></script>
<script src="TestingChat/signalr/hubs"></script>


A pedestrian hit by a vehicle on U.S. 41 this weekend was not killed in the crash, Evansville Police say.
EVANSVILLE, Ind. — A crash on U.S. 41 this weekend where a car hit a pedestrian was not fatal, Evansville Police confirmed Monday.
However, the police report shows the person was seriously injured.
The vehicle was driving south on U.S. 41 near Walnut Street about 10 p.m. Saturday night when it collided with the pedestrian, according to the police report.
No one has been arrested or cited in connection with the crash, according to EPD spokesman Sgt. Jason Cullum. Police are not expecting to cite anyone in the case and the driver is not considered at-fault for the case.
A stretch of U.S. 41 was shut down Saturday after the collision. No one in the vehicle reported injuries, according to police.
The road was reopened around 10:50 p.m. Saturday.


To mark Autism Awareness Week (1st - 7th April), we hear from former Into Film Club member Bethany, who talks to us about what living with autism is really like, and take a look at how film can be used to raise awareness of a condition that is more common than most people realise, affecting 1 in every 100 people in the UK.
"Imagine having all five senses multiplied by one hundred.", says Bethany. "Many people with autism, myself included, have never experienced complete silence. Imagine being seen as rude when you do not get the gist of social norms. Imagine struggling to catch a ball, hold a pen or do anything that involves fine or gross motor skills. We are the children that run with a gait, who are always picked last for the team, whose handwriting ranges from scruffy to illegible. As autism is known as an invisible disability, people think we are not trying hard enough, children laugh at our mishaps, we feel left out and like a failure on many occasions."
"The best scientists (Einstein, Edison, etc.) that changed our world and way of thinking were rumoured to have autism, along with such famous faces as Daryl Hannah, Tim Burton and the legendary Temple Grandin. We can go on to do the most amazing things if our self-esteem isn't shattered."
There are several great films in which autism is a key theme, and encouraging your pupils to watch and discuss one in class or at an Into Film Club can help them see the world through the eyes of another person, increasing empathy and dispelling common myths about people who have autism.
The Lost Prince (12) Shows how attitudes to autism have changed through history.
Ben X (15) A Belgian drama about an autistic teenager who finds an outlet in playing role-playing games.
My Not So Ordinary Life - which won the Best Live Action: 13 and Over prize at the 2017 Into Film Awards - follows a young woman as she explains an ordinary day in the life of someone with autism, charting the ups and downs of her daily experience.
Autism Awareness, meanwhile, was our Film of the Month winner back in April 2017, and is an animation made by a group of young people who all have autistic spectrum disorder that sets out to let people know what it's like attending an institution with 100% non-autistic rules.
A great example of how film itself can help people who find communication difficult is 2016's coming-of-age story Life, Animated. This partly animated documentary explores the extraordinary effect of Disney films on the personal and social development of a young autistic man named Owen Suskind, who, through his deep connection with the films, overcomes great challenges.
The messages in these films may make those of us who haven't experienced autism feel better equipped to reach out to those who have - which for Bethany, and others like her, could make a real difference.
Bethany offered some final words of advice for us to keep in mind and help make people with autism more comfortable: "Make every day autism awareness day. Try to make a safe space if somebody with autism is on edge at a party. Gently nudge them if they say something wrong. Pick them for your team if playing sports. Smile and say hello in the corridor. Small gestures matter: often, they can speak louder than words ever could. Please, be autism aware. Thank you."

A selection of films that Into Film recommend as good for engaging pupils with varied special educational needs (SEN).
Three teachers of students with learning difficulties show us how they've used review writing to great effect in their work.
Made by a group of autistic young people from Wales, this film sees them appealing for greater understanding of the challenges they face every day at school.
Congratulations to MENCAP & X-Ray Eye Films from Belfast, whose great film follows a young girl as she conveys the ups and downs of living with autism.


Since its presentation by G.N. Hounsfield at the second Congress of the European Association of Radiology in Amsterdam in June 1971, "Computerised Trans verse Axial Tomography" which became later on "Computerised Axial Tomography (CAT)" then simply "Computed Tomography (CT)" has developed extremely rapidly. Many papers have appeared in a short time, pointed out the substantial advantages of this new technique and precisely describing the characteristic images obtained. The number of devices is already considerable and their evolution tends towards the improvement of the quality of images and the shortening of exploration time. It is not an exaggeration to say that there is no longer any Neuroradiology without computed tomography. Does that mean that this new technique is infallible and that classical neuroradiological techniques are due to disappear in the near future? Experience shows that if certain techniques, such as gas encephalography, 'are less frequently employed since CT, others, such as cerebral angiography, are still commonly required.

This is the 7th CBS Copperfield TV special, introduced by the host Angie Dickinson. It is officially titled "THE MAGIC OF David Copperfield VII" but is better known as "The Magic of David Copperfield VII: Familiares". The illusions performed are: "Video To Life (Part 1)", "Webster The Mind-Reading Duck", "The Painter" (aka "Paintings To Life"), "Run Duck Run", "Psycho Shower Scene", "Let's Burn A Deal", "Father And Son" and "Video To Life (Part 2)". In both parts of "Video To Life" a video is projected onto the front of an empty box, raised from the ground, and David Copperfield is able to interact laterally with the video through an opening in the right side of the box, taking objects from it and putting other things in there; moreover in the process various people visible through the video also come out from this opening and then return into it, but each time that the projected video is suspended and the front side is open the box is always empty. "Part 1" ends with an elephant ... Written by Lorenz-pictures
