Solving Effusion Confusion with Dr. Kate Baker
Isabelle Perlman
Kate Baker, DVM, MS, DACVP (Clinical Pathology) began her career in vet med at the University of Tennessee, followed by a 1-year rotating internship and a 3-year residency at the University of Illinois in Clinical Pathology. She became board certified in 2016 and worked for several years in a major diagnostic lab, gaining experience in many different types of cases.
Today, Dr. Baker is primarily an online educator of pathology; and when she's not sharing her vast knowledge and expertise with the world, she's a mother of two, Nashville-native, hobby photographer, and owner of three dogs, a mini-donkey, a pygmy goat, and 33 chickens.
We are so lucky to have Dr. Baker present two brand new sessions at Vet Show @ Home this June: Part 1: A Microscopic Tour of Non-neoplastic Cavity Effusions and Part 2: A Microscopic Tour of Neoplastic Cavity Effusions. After chatting with Dr. Baker, it's clear that she's the perfect person to help end effusion confusion.
Scoping Out the Subject
With so much to talk about in clinical pathology, Dr. Baker narrowed it down to the subject she felt most important: evaluating effusions, specifically cavity effusions. "I'm excited about these talks," she says, "because I've never done them before - they're really important and I get asked about effusions all the time." Dr. Baker will be going over everything from how to prepare an effusion for evaluation all the way to understanding what you're seeing under the microscope.
"Effusions happen to all animals (obviously) so whether you're in general practice, emergency, or specialty practice, it's relevant to all. It's an area that a lot of people actually feel really uncomfortable with, so I'm hoping to be able to clarify a lot of confusion and make it feel not as daunting. You really need a framework to understand what you're looking at, so that's what I will be doing with these sessions."
An Eye for Effusions
We asked Dr. Baker to tell us about a case that has stuck with her. One case that she will remember forever took place during the weekend several years ago, when a young Border Collie came into the emergency hospital where she worked. On her day off, with no on-call availability, she went in because the dog was in need of expert cytologic assistance.
He had an abdominal effusion and other strange clinical signs like skin lesions and high fever. Dr. Baker prepped the sample, took a look under the microscope, and saw a ton of inflammation. Given these symptoms, she thought that it could be a bacterial septic effusion: maybe he ate a foreign body and it perforated his intestines. After looking around for a while with no signs of bacteria, she began to wonder if this could be a Blastomycosis case, which is a common fungal infection that can cause the fever and lesions; however, abdominal effusion is not something you typically see with that. Listening to the nagging feeling that she should keep looking (and ignoring the fact that it was a Saturday and she wasn't getting paid for this), she finally found one Blastomyces yeast. This was the only case she's ever seen a Blastomyces in an effusion - it can happen, but very rarely.
"It's not the best thing to have, but the great thing for everybody was that there was an answer right there under the microscope, it was clear and obvious. They wouldn't have gotten that answer any other way, or as quickly, because you can do some additional testing but it takes a long time. That just shows the power of looking under the microscope at your effusions."
Cytology Mythology
There are plenty of myths surrounding cytology. Do I really need to look at the fluid under the microscope? There's also general confusion on preparing effusion samples: Do I need a concentrated preparation, or not? What types of testing do I need to do on the fluid?
According to Dr. Baker, "There are times when people will just look at the effusion grossly - meaning, looking at it just with the naked eye and evaluating the color and how thick it is. While those are very important parts of effusion evaluation, they can't replace seeing what's taking place on a cellular level."
In her sessions, Dr. Baker will give a thorough tour of the microscopic world of cavity effusions and use case examples to emphasize their utility. One of the biggest misconceptions about cytology is not fully understanding just how important it is.
Dr. Baker at Vet Show @ Home
Dr. Baker will be speaking at Vet Show @ Home and available to answer your burning questions about effusions on June 21-23. Her sessions are focused on helping practitioners, not pathologists. Veterinarians, veterinary technicians involved in cytologic evaluation, and even those who aren't can all benefit. "Just because you're not in an emergency or pathology setting," she says, "doesn't mean that you can't do effusion cytology in your practice. A lot of people are really intimidated by cytology in general but it's one that with practice, just like anything else, you'd get better at."
With so many great speakers at the show, Dr. Baker is most looking forward to hearing from others and learning about new topics that are not pathology specific. "I'm just digging the virtual CE!" she says.

SpaceX Launches Dragon Spacecraft to the ISS
Updated on: 2012-05-22 || Source: news.softpedia.com
Hawthorne, California-based Space Exploration Technologies Corporation (SpaceX) has made history earlier today, when it launched the first privately built spacecraft to the International Space Station.
The unmanned cargo ship lifted off from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station (CCAFS), aboard a Falcon 9 medium-lift delivery system. Blastoff occurred at 3:44 am EDT (0744 UTC) today, May 22.
This is the second demonstration mission that SpaceX is conducting under the $1.6 billion Commercial Orbital Transportation Services (COTS) contract it signed with NASA. The agreement calls for the company to conduct 12 resupply flights to the orbital lab over the next few years.
Falcon 9 had its maiden flight in June 2010, followed by its first mission carrying the Dragon space capsule, in December. During the first joint sortie to space, the capsule became the first private spacecraft to circle the globe, and then reenter Earth's atmosphere successfully.
Subsequently, SpaceX requested and was granted permission to combine two test missions into a single flight. This is how the company was allowed to attempt an orbital docking maneuver with the ISS.
The Dragon will not head for the station directly. It will first carry out a flyby of the orbital outpost on Thursday, May 24, during which SpaceX will assess its sensors and flight systems. The capsule will pass within 1.5 miles (2.4 kilometres) of the outpost.
If everything checks out, NASA will allow the vehicle to attempt a dock on Friday, May 25. Since Dragon has no automated docking mechanism, it will pass very close to the space lab, while astronauts aboard the ISS will use the Canadarm-2 robotic arm to capture it.
Once this maneuver is complete, the arm will guide the spacecraft to the American docking port. This is the same approach used by the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency on its HTV spacecraft.
"I want to congratulate SpaceX for its successful launch and salute the NASA team that worked alongside them to make it happen," NASA Administrator Charles Bolden commented after the launch.
"Today marks the beginning of a new era in exploration; a private company has launched a spacecraft to the International Space Station that will attempt to dock there for the first time," the official added.
"And while there is a lot of work ahead to successfully complete this mission, we are certainly off to good start. Under President Obama's leadership, the nation is embarking upon an ambitious exploration program that will take us farther into space than we have ever traveled before, while helping create good-paying jobs right here in the United States of America," he concluded.

PUBLISHED: February 29, 2020 at 6:50 a.m. | UPDATED: March 1, 2020 at 11:05 a.m.
The salad bar at John Glenn Middle School comes with instructions.
A sign in the Maplewood school's cafeteria explains that the salad bar as a meal choice includes fruit, vegetables, grains/pasta, meat or meat alternatives and milk — emphasizing in bold type that students "Must take 3 of the 5 offerings including 1/2 cup fruit/vegetables."
Kids across America have been known to grumble at fruit and vegetable mandates, whether they are issued by the schools, the feds or Mom and Dad — but thanks to Connie Sarne, assistant manager of the school kitchen, students at this middle school are learning that fruits and vegetables can actually be fun as well as delicious.
Sarne has worked in the kitchens of this school district since 1998, but her salad bar inspiration came about a month ago, when she decided to take a new approach to try to tempt the kids to take their required servings with touches like carving up a canteloupe to look like a creature with its mouth wide open and full of cut-up pieces of fruit.
Her creations were cute — too cute to disassemble.
"The kids didn't want to take them," Sarne says.
So instead, Sarne put her creations on top of the salad bar, as non-edible displays, for everyone in the lunchroom to see.
Because she purchases these display fruits and vegetables (with her own money) at Aldi after her shift is over, she decided to post some photos of her work on the Aldi Nerd's Facebook group this month
It went, as the kids say, viral.
"I got 21,000 likes and 1,900 comments and 300 shares in a couple of hours," Sarne says. "I came back from lunch and my phone was going 'Ding ding ding ding.'"
Some of the comments:
"Love this. Those kids will never forget what you did for them."
"Great way to encourage kids to eat fruits and vegetables!"
"More schools need people like you!"

Sarne's efforts to get kids to see fruits and vegetables in a new way has also led to her own continuing education: When she returns home after making the students breakfast and lunch, she prepares for her next display: After she finds an idea — often on Pinterest — she breaks out the set of specialty fruit and vegetable carving tools she purchased online and gets to work, sometimes watching tutorials on YouTube to guide her along the way.
"So each day, I've progressed, teaching myself just a little bit more," Sarne says.
She opens an album of photos and explains her work: "Threw some birds in there … I made these flowers out of cantaloupes … all this is, is a pineapple that is turned upside-down … basically, these are peppers and they're layered on there. He turned out really cool. These are two lemons … and then I went back to kiwi because we were serving kiwi that day. I try to match what I'm making for the display with what is being served in the salad bar that day … I used some pineapple rinds with the legs for the lizard … These are baby cardinals I made out of radishes … I realized what you can do out of a carrot — that's a carrot! It's a thinly sliced carrot …"
It's not only the students at the salad bar who have noticed her work.
"Every day, I think, 'She can't top this,' but every day, they get more and more detailed and elaborate," says Principal Jill Miklausich. "It's been a really special surprise and addition to our lunch this year."
In the cafeteria Wednesday, one large fish made out of a canteloupe and three small fish made out of oranges "swam" through a scene of underwater foliage including blossoming blooms of bell peppers.
The students definitely noticed the creativity, including during the lunch hour Wednesday.
"What kind of fish is that?" a boy asked as he cruised by.
"Personally, I think it's really cool."
"Tempting."
"They're pretty."
"I like how she makes very specific cuts for the details."
"It must take a long time to make."
"Can she make a hand sign for peace?"
The lunch lady wanders over to one table and says that yes, she will take requests. The kids' ideas for displays include sharks, whales and chickens.
She'd better sharpen those knives, because her following is growing.
But: Are her patrons actually consuming more fruits and vegetables?
At Sarne's home, they certainly are.
"They eat a lot of cut-up fruit, let's put it that way," she says.
As for the kids at school?
"I think it's really creative," said sixth-grader Brooke Afework, center, about Connie Sarne's fruit and vegetable display at John Glenn Middle School in Maplewood, Wednesday, Feb. 26, 2020. Standing behind her is Tiffanie Erickson, 12. Sarne makes the display at home, spending her own money on the food and tools, and then puts it on top of the salad bar every day. She wants to show kids that the healthy options can be fun. Her displays have gone viral online. (Jean Pieri / Pioneer Press)
"It is bringing more people to the salad bar," says Marie Carroll, nutrition services coordinator for the North St. Paul-Maplewood-Oakdale school district.
Josalyn Mauer, an eighth-grader at John Glenn, said she chose a sub sandwich the other day — build-your-own sub day at the school is popular — but she is open to other options.
"I don't usually go to the salad bar unless it's good," says the 14-year-old.
Lately, it's very good indeed — both for nutrition and morale.
"People can be critical of school lunches," Carroll says. "It's nice for them to see all the fresh fruits and vegetables we serve every day."
Sarne is glad she's done her part to highlight the joy of food.
"It started as a way to get kids interested in fruits and vegetables," she says. "It's turned out to be a lot of fun for everyone."

Q: How to manipulate Pandas Series without changing the given Original? Context
I have a method that takes a Pandas Series of categorial Data and returns it as an indexed version. However, I think my implementation is also modifying the given Series, not just returning a modified new Series. I also get the following Errors:

A value is trying to be set on a copy of a slice from a DataFrame.
See the caveats in the documentation: https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/user_guide/indexing.html#returning-a-view-versus-a-copy
series[series == value] = index

SettingWithCopyWarning: modifications to a property of a datetimelike object are not supported and are discarded. Change values on the original.
cacher_needs_updating = self._check_is_chained_assignment_possible()

Code
def categorials(series: pandas.Series) -> pandas.Series:
    unique = series.unique()

    for index, value in enumerate(unique):
        series[series == value] = index

    return series.astype(pandas.Int64Dtype())

Question

*

*How can I achieve my goal: This method should return the modified series without manipulating the original given series?

A: You need to .copy() the incoming argument. Normally, that warning wouldn't have appeared; we're at liberty to write to Series/DataFrames after all. However, in the code you didn't share, it seems the argument you're passing here was obtained as a subset of another Series/Frame (or maybe even itself). FYI, if you're planning to do modifications on a subset, better chain .copy() at the end of initialization.
Anyway, back to the question, series = series.copy() as the first line in the function should resolve the issue. However, your method is actually doing factorization, so
pd.Series(pd.factorize(series)[0], index=series.index)

is equivalent to what your function does, where since pd.factorize returns a 2-tuple of (codes, uniques), we take the 0th one. Also it gives a NumPy array back, so we Series-ify it with the incoming index. Noting that, it does not attempt to modify the original Series, so no .copy is needed for it.

Q: How do I assign more than one of the same String in a loop? I'm trying to create a grid of 16 (4x4) cards. There are 8 different cards total, so each type of card will be repeated twice.
private static int rows = 4;
private static int columns = 4;

public static Card[][] card = new Card[rows][columns];

public String[][] printHiddenCard() {
    for(int i = 0; i < card.length; i++){
        for(int j = 0; j < card[i].length; j++){
            card[i][j] = new QCard();
        }
    }
}

I can't figure out how to insert two of each QCard, which is one of "?" or my 7 other types of cards (+, -, %, /, etc.), into the object array in random order.

A: I'd make a list of the 16 cards, then shuffle it.
// c1, c2, c3, c4, c5, c6, c7, c8 are your 8 different Cards.
List<Card> allCards = Arrays.asList(c1, c2, c3, c4, c5, c6, c7, c8);
List<Card> list = new ArrayList<>(allCards);
list.addAll(allCards);
Collections.shuffle(list);
int k = 0;
for(int i = 0; i < rows; i++){
    for(int j = 0; j < columns; j++){
        card[i][j] = list.get(k++);

Sept. 10, 1897: Lattimer Massacre
Time Periods: Industrial Revolution: 1877 - 1899
Themes: Immigration, Labor
On Sept. 10, 1897, 19 mine workers were killed and dozens were wounded in the Lattimer Massacre.
A strike began weeks prior as miners from eastern Pennsylvania protested extremely dangerous working conditions, unpaid overtime, and the company store.

About 400 miners, mostly immigrants, began an unarmed peaceful march to Lattimer to support the newly formed United Mineworkers there. When they arrived, Luzerne County sheriff James Martin and his deputies opened fire on the men and boys.
Paul A. Shackel, author of Remembering Lattimer: Labor, Migration, and Race in Pennsylvania Anthracite Country, writes in Why Don't More Americans Remember the 1897 Massacre of Pennsylvania Coal Miners?:
The slain strikers were buried in four different Hazleton cemeteries with great ceremony, most in paupers' graves. As many as 8,000 people participated in the funeral ceremonies and processions. A Polish newspaper, which was published in Scranton, memorialized the men with a rephrasing of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. For those who died in Lattimer, it wrote,
May their death not be in vain, may they become the patron saints of the working people in America.
Luzerne County sheriff James Martin and his deputies were tried in February 1898 for killing one striker, but were found innocent after defense attorneys characterized the miners as "invaders from the Steppes of Hungary" who had come to America to destroy peace and liberty. Continue reading.

Q: Deployer PHP - Custom command task always failed in my Symfony 5.1 project I am trying to declare my own task which I would like to use when deploying. I created it like this:
task('update_database', function () {
    if($_ENV['DATABASE_URL'])
    {
        cd('{{release_path}}');
        writeln('<info>Updating database</info>');
        run('{{bin/php}} {{bin/console}} d:d:c --if-not-exists');
        run('{{bin/php}} {{bin/console}} doctrine:schema:update --force');
    }
})->desc('Make database updates');

The "cd" and the "writeln" work. But every time I try to run a command it always fails

I tried with just the command php bin/console instead of using {{bin/php}} {{bin/console}}.
I even tried a silly php bin/console cache:clear command to see, but same error.
Yet I am in the right directory.. I followed this tutorial https://www.codepicky.com/php-automatic-deploy/
And I do the exact same thing though
UPDATE :
I connected to my server, I went to the last release of my project, and when I tried commands, absolutely nothing was happening. No mistake, but they didn't do anything. Even if I try the command to create an entity, it is "ignored".
The -vvv flag didn't give anything either
Here is what I have in the console:

Q: SDL 2.0 iOS - Touch events not received Here's how I initialize SDL:
//initialize engine and set main loop callback... kind of awkward is there a better way to do this?
extern "C"{
  CBCore::Engine *engine;

  void UpdateLoop(void *f)
  {
    engine->updateLoop();
  }

  int main(int argc, char *argv[])
  {
    engine = new CBCore::Engine();
    engine->init();
    Assert(engine->window(), "Window not set for iOS animation callback");
    SDL_iPhoneSetAnimationCallback(engine->window(), 1, UpdateLoop, NULL);

    return 0;
  }
}

//init function of engine, initializes required SDL subsystems and creates window
void Engine::init()
{
  SDL_Log("Initializing engine!");
  /* initialize SDL */
  if(SDL_Init(0) != 0){
    Assert(0, "Could not initialize SDL");
  }

  if (SDL_InitSubSystem(SDL_INIT_VIDEO) != 0) {
    Assert(0, "Could not initialize SDL Video");
  }

  if(SDL_InitSubSystem(SDL_INIT_TIMER) != 0){
    Assert(0, "Could not initialize SDL Timer");
  }

  _window = SDL_CreateWindow(NULL, 0, 0, 480, 320, SDL_WINDOW_SHOWN | SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN | SDL_WINDOW_BORDERLESS | SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL);
  Assert(_window, "Could not create window");

  _context = SDL_GL_CreateContext(pimpl->window);

{
  SDL_Event event;
  SDL_Log("Polling events");
  while(SDL_PollEvent(&event)) {
    SDL_Log("Polled event %d", event.type);
  }
}

The loop gets called and I get 4 Events at startup: SDL_APP_DIDENTERFOREGROUND, SDL_WINDOWEVENT_SIZE_CHANGED, SDL_WINDOWEVENT_SHOWN and SDL_WINDOWEVENT_ENTER; I also got enter background messages and the likes. But I can click/touch on the simulator/device till the cows go home but no event is received... Am I missing something?

A: I was finally able to solve it by calling SDL_GL_SwapWindow, after that events get processed.


Going green in general is not easy; it takes planning and execution, like any effective strategy. But leaning your operations, a much more narrowly defined objective than greening your products and services, may be less challenging.
As you explore easy targets and quick wins, keep in mind ten guidelines.
1. Find the "head-slappers", such as using outside air to cool a data centre or, on the flip side, shutting that outside air out to warm a room.
2. Don't worry about size. Don't look down your nose at small improvements. Each area may save a modest amount, but in total, you can make a noticeable dent in cash flow and profitability. Twenty changes of 1% each add up.
3. Get everyone looking for ways to cut back, and use cross-functional teams.
5. Automate as much as possible. Don't just ask everyone to turn off lights – use motion detectors and software.
6. Don't reinvent the wheel. Look to unbiased industry and government resources, which are dedicated to gathering information and best practices.
7. Find partners and service providers who want to reduce your costs and explore guarantees or profit sharing to reduce up-front costs.
8. Set short-term goals. Now is a good time for aggressive, but tactical goals. Tell everyone to cut energy use by 10% - by next month.
9. Increase recycling, and you may turn a cost into a small profit centre.
10. Reduce costs, but don't stop investing. It makes a big difference when you dedicate money specifically for green initiatives. Green projects may never get the focus they deserve without some specific money dedicated to the purpose.
The tips are taken from a plan for a strategic green recovery - 'Green recovery: get lean, get smart and emerge from the downturn on top', by Andrew Winston - to be published in full by Harvard Business Press in August 2009.


Stonepillow Lodge provides accommodation for homeless people over the age of 18 who are discharged from St Richard's Hospital or who may not be suitable for a traditional hostel environment due to their health needs. Building work was funded by Chichester District Council, the Homes and Community Agency, the Hospital Discharge Fund and Stonepillow.
There are five studios for independent living. Facilities include an individual kitchen and dining area, a shower, bathroom and a communal area with a laundry room. The service is managed by our trained and highly qualified Hostels Management team and our Move-on accommodation will potentially be offered once clients have recovered.
In 2014, 80 people were discharged from hospitals in the Chichester and Arun districts, with nowhere to live and without support. Before Stonepillow's involvement homeless people were not even identified. Now Stonepillow's Hostels Manager works closely with medical personnel from St Richards Hospital in identifying, from the outset, the needs of those admitted who are homeless.


It's summer in Dallas — which, as you know, means air conditioners are running and utility bills are rising. Did you know that 6% of your household energy goes to cooling your home? And homeowners spend $29 billion every year to run their A/C systems!
Air conditioners are major investments, but we obviously need them in the South — not just for comfort, but for safety when the temperatures skyrocket. And to keep them running at their peak efficiency, they require regular maintenance. Do you know what you need to do to take care of yours?
As your A/C unit runs, it accumulates dust and dirt. Eventually, that debris clogs your air filters and builds up on your HVAC unit's condensing coils. If this buildup isn't cleared, your A/C system suffers — losing as much as five percent of its operating efficiency every year. Not only will it not cool your home as well as it should, it has to work harder to do its job, which can shorten its lifespan.
You can avoid this, saving time and money, with a little routine maintenance.
For more information on how your A/C unit works, what to consider when replacing one, and how to troubleshoot problems, check out this helpful infographic from the Department of Energy.


The Jim Thorpe Story When King Gustav V of Sweden presented awards at the 1912 Olympic Games of Stockholm, he proclaimed to the decathlon winner, an American Indian named Jim Thorpe, as the world's top athlete. "You sir, are the world's greatest athlete." Incidentally, Jim is purported to have replied, "Thanks, King" to the Swedish monarch, a story, true or not, which itself has become part of the Thorpe saga. Ever since, the Olympic decathlon champion or world record holder has been dubbed "the World's Greatest Athlete." And rightly so, since the decathlon is the only objective test of all around athletic ability. Decathletes must contest ten separate events and have those performances tallied on a standard scoring table. The decathlon measures basic sporting ability like jumping, sprinting and throwing. Within the backdrop and rules of track and field, decathlon champions must exhibit, the 4 S's: speed, spring, strength and stamina. Since 1912 great decathlon champions like Bob Mathias, Rafer Johnson, Bruce Jenner and Daley Thompson and others have become household names. But they all owe much to the legend of Thorpe.

last Games, he finished second as a member of the team running deer shooting 279 daysof age, became the oldest competitor and medal winner in olympic history.
OLYMPIC HISTORY Shooting had a friend in the highest of places when the Modern Olympic Games opened in Athens in 1896. None other, in fact, than Pierre de Coubertin, who was a pistol shooting champion for France. The first president of the International Olympic Committee introduced four pistol and two rifle events at the first modern Olympiad. The sport has featured at all bar two Games since, St Louis in 1904 and Amsterdam in 1928 not having staged shooting events. His record-breaking did not stop there, however, and over two days at the Stockholm Games of 1912 he established two more Olympic milestones which have stood the test of time. First, he became the oldest medal winner in an individual event, by taking the bronze in the Running Deer, double-shot at the age of 64 years and 256 days; then, he became the oldest ever gold medal winner when triumphant as a member of the Swedish Running Deer, single-shot team at the age of 64 years 257 days.

Support Crew The mission of the Team USA Distance Running is to return American distance running to its former glory. During the 1970s and early 1980s, the United States was a dominating force in world distance running. Frank Shorter, Bill Rodgers, Joan Benoit and Alberto Salazar were all, at one time or another, Olympic Champions or the top marathoner in the world. American rrunners were likely winners of any race regardless of the presence any other world class competition.

As a competitive sport, cross-country running began in England with a game called "hare and hounds" or "the paper chase" in the early 19th century. In this game, a runner or group of runners laid a trail by dropping pieces of paper or other markers while following a random course, and a second set of runners then set out in pursuit, trying to follow the paper trail. The first formal competition was the Crick Run, first held at Rugby School in 1837. Many other public schools soon established similar events, followed by Oxford and Cambridge Universities. Although hare and hounds continued to be popular at schools, in important competition the game became a cross-country race along a course laid out in advance over open country. The English national cross-country championship was established in 1876. Two years later, William C. Vosburgh of New York introduced the sport to the United States. In 1887, the National Cross-Country Association was founded, and the association held its first championship event. The Amateur Athletic Association began conducting the national championship in 1880. Also in 1880, cross-country running was introduced at Harvard as an autumn training event for track and field distance runners, and other colleges quickly followed Harvard's example.
Born June 30, 1938 in Pine Ridge, South Dakota, Billy Mills is an Oglala Sioux Indian whose given Native-American name is Loves His Country. Although an outstanding long distance runner, Mills' accomplishment at the 1964 Summer Olympic games in Tokyo, Japan stands as one of the most shocking upsets in modern sports. Mills grew up on an Oglala Sioux Indian reservation and was orphaned at the age of 12. He first became involved with distance running while attending the Haskell Institute, an Indian school in the city of Lawrence, Kansas. He had taken up running as part of a rigorous training program to become a boxer. However, he abandoned boxing in favor of running. His talent and hard work made him a natural at several distance events. bodyOffer(27811) Mills entered the Univesity of Kansas in the late 1950s and proceeded to improve upon the times he had posted at the Haskell Institute. He was a 1958 and 1959 All-American in cross country while at Kansas. In 1960, Mills won the individual title in the Big Eight Conference's cross country tournament. The following year, Mills was the conference champion in the two-mile race with a time just over nine minutes. The Kansas team, filled with gifted track and field athletes, won the 1959 and 1960 NCAA outdoor national championships.


Marken is centralizing its brokerage management services in conjunction with UPS, as the rise in global trials brings more vendors and new challenges into the fold.
According to the company, the service allows clients to use UPS' established brokerage system in conjunction with Marken's clinical trial supply chain solutions. In addition to the UPS team, Marken also maintains relationships with brokers in each country who have local regulatory expertise.
The new service ensures all Importer of Record obligations are met while reducing potential exposure to fines, penalties, and forfeiture. It also allows clients to benefit from new trade programs, duty drawbacks, and tax exemptions.
Being able to properly manage these services is key, said Dan Bell, vice president, North America operations and global regulatory affairs – especially for CROs and in the clinical market.
"If you can imagine, for a CRO that has thousands of protocols for many, many pharma clients, dealing with lots of transportation companies, and as part of that, lots of brokerage firms, having that oversight of how each one of those entries are filed and maintaining compliance is a real big challenge," Bell told us.
"I think until we managed to put these services together, it was really hard to have that on a global level, especially for CROs," he said.
For CROs, Bell explained that maintaining compliance is important to avoid fines and penalties, as well as the potential loss of import/export rights. The new service aims to provide more visibly and control, especially as more vendors and countries are involved in the clinical trial supply chain.
Additionally, as the industry develops more biologically-derived drugs, such as cell and gene therapies, Bell noted that the challenges are compounded. In Europe, for example, GMOs are specifically regulated, posing additional hurdles from a compliance perspective in both the storage and transportation of genetically modified products.
"The big supply chain challenge, and why you absolutely need to make sure that when you hit the send button and file your entry to both customs and agencies, is making sure that it doesn't take longer than it should to process because biologically-derived products are nearly always temperate controlled," he added.
Bell said the number one delay for most people is nearly always some kind of import or export question mark.
"This program that we've put together is to make sure that when shipments are going down the road – you've found your patient, you've signed your patient up for the trial – that you've done that work ahead of time to make sure that you understand how long it takes to go through customs," he explained.
"It's really clear that this is an issue that's been there for a very long time, it's just made more challenging by the number of trials that have a global footprint," Bell added, noting that it's an issue everybody is trying to get their arms around.
"The thing that we've realized as we started to launch this global brokerage [service offering] … add in the clinical knowledge to that and then the project management … put those three things together, it's unique in the marketplace," said Bell.

"Concern over children's use of social media and its effect on their mental health has increased markedly in recent years, and now official action on the issue is also stepping up. In the UK, government ministers are considering imposing new rules on social media companies, while a trial introducing mindfulness exercises will be extended to up to 370 English schools. The response comes as separate surveys have revealed feelings of "overwhelming pressure" and inadequacy among young social media users, as well as the prevalence of online bullying. "
"Massachusetts residents who need health care are colliding with a hard reality: Having medical insurance doesn't guarantee you can get treatment, particularly for psychiatric problems. More than half of adults who sought mental health or addiction treatment in recent months had difficulty getting that care, according to a survey of 2,201 residents by the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts Foundation in Boston...The obstacle wasn't a lack of insurance; the vast majority of patients were insured. Rather, the problem was that providers either did not accept their insurance or their practices were closed to new patients. "
"The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services may now allow for states to pursue Medicaid reimbursements for short-term inpatient treatment in mental health facilities despite a decades-old exclusion, Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar announced Tuesday. In a letter to state Medicaid directors, CMS detailed a new Medicaid waiver opportunity through which states may bypass longstanding reimbursement restrictions on inpatient psychiatric treatment, which apply to mental health facilities with more than 16 beds. Azar said the original policy has posed a "significant barrier" to people getting the treatments they need. "
Early puberty in girls tied to bullying in school, by Lisa Rapaport, Reuters , May 17 2018.
"Girls who go through puberty early may be more likely than peers who mature later to be involved in bullying at school - either as victims or perpetrators, a recent study suggests...Early menstruation was associated with 21 percent higher odds that girls would be occasional victims of bullying and a 35 percent greater chance of frequent victimization. At the same time, teens who started menstruating sooner than most other girls were 19 percent more likely to occasionally bully other students at school and had 46 percent higher odds of becoming frequent bullies...'Parents should let their daughters know that puberty timing is varied among adolescents, it is very normal that some are earlier and some are later,' Lian said by email. 'More importantly, parents and school teachers should recognize that adolescents need the skills and abilities to copy with the pressures caused by early puberty they enter puberty.' "
Childhood bullying linked to suicide risk for teens, by Lisa Rapaport, Reuters , Jan 16 2018.
"Adolescents who experienced severe bullying by their peers earlier in childhood may be more likely to suffer from depression, anxiety and suicidal thoughts than teens who weren't routinely victimized by other kids, a Canadian study suggests...Compared to teens who experienced little or no bullying as kids, adolescents who suffered chronic tormenting by their peers were more than twice as likely to be depressed and more than three times more likely to be anxious or seriously consider suicide, the study found...Adolescents who were chronically bullied as kids were also much more likely to experience social anxiety, eating problems, conduct issues and behavior challenges, the study found. "
For some kids, bullying may not leave lasting mental scars, by Lisa Rapaport, Reuters , Oct 11 2017.
"Children who are bullied during their pre-teen years may experience mental health issues like anxiety and depression, but a study of twins suggests that some victims may not experience lasting psychological problems. .. At age 11, kids who reported bullying were more likely than children who weren't victims of peer victimization to report anxiety, depression, hyperactivity, inattention and conduct problems, the study found. Some effects appeared to diminish over time, however. After five years, there no longer appeared to be a link between bullying and anxiety, but an association persisted for issues like cognitive disorganization and paranoid thoughts. 'Most children will get better,' said Judy Silberg, author of an accompanying editorial and a researcher at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond. "
The children most likely to be bullied by their own friends, by Jacqueline Howard, CNN , Jul 7 2017.
"'I definitely got bullied by people who I cared about and I definitely had people I thought were my friends that weren't,' said Averill, now 39, as she reflected on her middle school friendships. She added that her weight was often the target of the teasing...Two separate studies published in June support Averill's idea that overweight or obese children are more likely to have "frenemies" than non-overweight children...The researchers found that overweight children not only were less likely overall to be nominated than their non-overweight classmates, they were 1.65 times more likely to be disliked...'This negative social environment is important to address because it can have a negative impact on overweight children's mental health and because it is a barrier to overweight kids adopting healthy habits,' she said, adding that stigmatizing obesity does not motivate children to lose weight. 'Overweight kids who experience peer rejection and social isolation are likely to exercise less, have greater food intake and have fewer positive role models for healthy habits and a healthy weight.' "
Teen Bullies And Their Victims Both Face A Higher Risk Of Suicide, by Alison Kodjak, NPR , Jun 28 2016.
"Bullying and cyberbullying are major risk factors for teen suicide. And both the bullies and their victims are at risk. That's according to a report from the American Academy of Pediatrics that urges pediatricians and family doctors to routinely screen teenagers for suicide risks. "
Bullied kids are more likely to be depressed years later, by Kathryn Doyle, Reuters , Jun 12 2015.
"Being bullied in adolescence may make kids more vulnerable to depression in early adulthood and explain almost a third of depression burden at that age, according to a new study in the U.K. Among nearly 4,000 children in southwest England followed from birth, kids who were frequently bullied at age 13 were more than twice as likely to be depressed at age 18 as those who were not bullied – even after accounting for other factors that could contribute to depression risk. "
Bullying by students with disabilities reduced by social-emotional learning, by University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, ScienceDaily , Mar 31 2015.
"Peer victimization -- bullying -- declined 20 percent among students with disabilities who participated in Second Step social-emotional learning curricula, authors of a new study report. More than 120 students with disabilities at two school districts in the Midwest United States participated in the research, which was part of a larger three-year clinical trial of the widely used social-emotional learning curricula Second Step. "
One In Five Workers Has Left Their Job Because Of Bullying, by Kathryn Dill, Forbes , Sep 18 2014.
"Nearly one third of workers report having felt bullied at work, according to a study released today by CareerBuilder. Even worse? Roughly 20% ended up leaving their job because of it. The study is based on data from a nationwide survey conducted by Harris Poll of nearly 3,400 full-time, private sector employees throughout various industries and company sizes. "
Ruling In Horrific LGBT Bullying Case Should Be A Wake-Up Call For Congress To Finally Pass SNDA, by Block, Joshua, Jun 24 2014.
"A 13-year-old boy named Jon Carmichael killed himself during spring break in 2010. You would think that this kind of bullying is illegal and schools have a responsibility to stop it. "
It's getting safer to be a child in the U.S., by Jen Christensen, CNN , May 1 2014.
"Despite all the national headlines about school shootings and other violence, life has actually gotten a lot safer for American children, according to a new study. Instances in which children were the victims of crimes such as assaults or violence such as bullying have declined significantly, according to the study, which appears in the most recent edition of the JAMA Pediatrics. Researchers compared rates of 50 different types of violence and crime over time. Of those categories, 27 saw significant declines between 2003 and 2011. "
In Texting Era, Crisis Hotlines Put Help at Youths' Fingertips, by Leslie Kaufman, New York Times , Feb 4 2014.
"While counseling by phone remains far more prevalent, texting has become such a fundamental way to communicate, particularly among people under 20, that crisis groups have begun to adopt it as an alternative way of providing emergency services and counseling. Texting provides privacy that can be crucial if a person feels threatened by someone near them, counselors say. It also looks more natural if the teenager is in public. "
Bully in the next bedroom - are we in denial about sibling aggression?, by William Kremer, Nov 8 2013.
"Sibling relationships can be difficult, and never more so than in childhood. But society often regards the scrapping and squabbling, the play fighting and not-so-playful fighting as a normal part of growing up. Almost a third of the 3,600 children questioned said they had been the victim of some sort of sibling aggression in the past 12 months. This included a range of acts from theft and psychological abuse to physical assault, either mild or severe. In comparison, research suggests that up to a quarter of children are victims of schoolyard aggression every year. "
