Paige Coffey
Episode 42 Paige Coffey Twenty Seven year-old Paige Coffey vanished from Bratenahl, Ohio in May, 2019 following a tumultuous relationship with her boyfriend, who is currently in prison for one of several crimes he committed. By all accounts, he was controlling, abusive, and violent towards Paige. He has not cooperated with police, and while many people think that he had something to do with Paige's disappearance, Paige was also battling mental health issues shortly before she vanished. Paige was re-evaluating her life and her relationships, and apparently decided to end things with her boyfriend, and that's when she vanished. Since then, there have been several rumors, but unfortuately, few solid clues for police to work with. Paige's disappearance has left her family & friends heartbroken. In an interview recorded on the day before what would be Paige's 30th birthday, her mom Trinettea shares her thoughts on the case, and her efforts to find out what happened to her daughter.

Alicia Markovich
Episode 41 Alicia Markovich Fifteen year-old Alicia Markovich vanished in Blairsville, Pennsylvania on April 26, 1987. Her father claims that Alicia stormed out of his home following an argument, and she has not been seen since. No sign of her has ever been found. Alicia's father seems to think that perhaps his daughter was trafficked, or she ran off, but Alicia's mom is suspicious of her ex husband and his story, as are many other people in the community. Over the years rumors swirled about Alicia's case, and an anonymous letter from someone led police to search a nearby river, but nothing has panned out and Alicia is still missing. Alicia's friend, and case advocate Lori Hiner discusses Alicia's disappearance in this episode.

Q: How to not repeat "example" in this sentence
For example, in the previous example, an HTML element containing ``Search Results" can be used as an anchor.

How to say it so that "example" doesn't repeat?

A: You can just omit "for example" altogether. If you start the sentence by referring to the previous example, it's immediately clear that you're talking about an example, not a universal case.

In the previous example, an HTML element containing ``Search Results" can be used as an anchor.

Brought up in just 18% new French oak, with 15% in stainless steel, the 2017 Ermitage de L'Orée is a big, rich, exotic effort that has loads of caramelized citrus, white flowers, green almonds, and licorice aromas and flavors. A wine that changes with time in the glass, it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a rounded, layered texture, and a great finish. As with the Le Méal, it's made in a slightly more fresh, focused style that's going to benefit from short-term cellaring.


Successful on home soil in Beijing; the title retained in London, once again the Women's Team Class 1-3 gold medal adorned the necks of China's Li Qian and Liu Jing, the only difference to the two previous successes being the fact that Xue Juan was included in the line-up.
Arguably the inclusion of the 26 year old from Beijing made the Chinese outfit even stronger than at the immediate two preceding Games; earlier in the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games she had proved herself a most worthy competitor. She won the Women's Singles Class 3 title.
On the afternoon of Friday 16th February, Liu Jing was not needed to extol her skills as a two matches to nil win was posted against the Croatian combination formed by Helena Dretar-Karic and Andela Muzinic.
Li Qian and Xue Juan beat Helena Dretar-Karic and Andela Muzinic in three straight games (11-6, 11-2, 11-4), before Li Qian concluded matters by beating Andela Muzinic in a four games contest (11-3, 11-5, 11-13, 11-5).
Gold for China; it was bronze for Korea who completed the recovery of the day.
Confronting Italy, Lee Mi-Gyu and Yeon Jiyu suffered a five games doubles defeat at the hands of Giada Rossi and Michela Brunelli (11-9, 9-11, 6-11, 11-7, 11-6).
Immediately, Korea levelled thanks to the efforts of Yoon Jiyu; she accounted for Giada Rossi in three straight games (11-6, 11-9, 11-1).
One recovery to level matters; there was another to win the contest. Seo Suyeon recovered from a two games to nil deficit to beat Michela Brunelli and secure a Korean victory (7-11, 6-11, 11-9, 11-8, 11-8).
It is the first medal won at a Paralympic by any of the three members of the Korean outfit.

Abstract: Diet is an important factor in the management of several dermatological diseases, such as dermatitis herpetiformis, acne vulgaris, gout, phrynoderma, pellagra, psoriasis, and acrodermatitis enteropathica. New concepts have emerged concerning the influence of diet on psoriasis. For example, diet has an adjuvant role in the management of several cardiovascular comorbidities that exhibit a higher-than-expected prevalence in psoriatic patients. Functional foods, such as yellow saffron and fish oil, may exert favorable effects on immune and cardiovascular functions. A gluten-free diet may promote significant clinical and histologic improvement. Folate supplementation may induce clinical improvement of psoriasis, but side effects may also occur. Diets rich in fresh fruits and vegetables are associated with a lower prevalence of psoriasis, and vegetarian diets were associated with clinical improvement. Additionally, many drug-diet interactions (retinoids, methotrexate, cyclosporine) must be considered in patients with psoriasis. Therefore, in addition to current nutritional advice given to psoriasis patients, further studies are necessary in the role of diet in psoriasis therapy.

HARROGATE MP GIVES A BIG HAND TO CATCH THE BUS WEEK!
2 Jul 2018 by Ben Mansfield
Campaign launch comes as spa town prepares to power ahead with a UK first in public transport
Harrogate's MP Andrew Jones is backing a campaign to promote the green benefits of going by bus, as the town prepares to become the first in the UK to welcome an all-new electric bus system.
The town's leading bus operator, The Harrogate Bus Company, is currently making final preparations ahead of the introduction of eight all-electric buses on town services.
The new vehicles will be the first of their kind in regular service anywhere in the country, and will enter service later this summer on routes linking Harrogate town centre with Bilton, Jennyfield and Pannal Ash.
Equipment to deliver the revolutionary 'opportunity charging' technology which will power up the new buses as customers board is now in place at Harrogate Bus Station – and tomorrow, Harrogate MP Andrew Jones will be there to promote Catch The Bus Week, a nationwide initiative promoting the green advantages of bus travel.
The Harrogate Bus Company's CEO Alex Hornby said: "We're delighted Andrew is supporting Catch The Bus Week, a week-long campaign promoting the best of British bus travel which begins on Monday.
"Our new electric buses will endorse Harrogate as a centre of public transport excellence, and with support from our MP Andrew Jones and Harrogate Borough Council, we've secured £2.25 million in funding under the Government's Low Emission Bus Scheme, to make this exciting project a reality for our town.
"Meanwhile our diesel buses are cleaner than ever, contributing 96 per cent less nitrogen oxide emissions than previous buses, and less pollution than new diesel cars.
"Our buses are good news for the environment, offering an easy, friendly and great value way to travel around town and further afield. There's no better time than Catch The Bus Week to discover the benefits of using our buses – and we hope this campaign will attract many people to discover the buses of the future right here in Harrogate."
Andrew Jones, MP for Harrogate and Knaresborough, said: "Catching the bus is better for our environment, however, with these new electric buses the benefit to our environment has never been better and the new fleet makes Harrogate one of the greatest bus towns in the country. I am supporting 'Catch The Bus Week' and encourage everyone to take advantage of their local bus service."
Information on all services provided by The Harrogate Bus Company is available on its website at: http://www.harrogatebus.co.uk, or from the enquiry kiosk in the town's bus station. Live service updates are also available by following @harrogatebus on Twitter.

Effexor (venlafaxene) Withdrawal, Side Effects, Addiction and Treatment
Home » Medications Withdrawal » Antidepressants » Effexor (aka Venlafaxine)
Effexor withdrawal is one of the most frequently asked about topics concerning drug treatment. Before embarking on a prescription of antidepressant medication such as Effexor, or EffexorXR, whether to treat depression, anxiety, or other conditions, any person should acquaint themselves as fully as possible with the various Effexor side effects and Effexor withdrawal symptoms before electing to begin drug treatment. This is also advised before starting Effexor tapering, as increased understanding can benefit the process substantially.
The FDA mandated in 2007 that Effexor packaging update the black box label on packaging to warn consumers that the antidepressant drug Effexor should not be taken by anyone under the age of 25 years old due to studies that showed the drug caused a five-fold increase in suicidality. This may be a highly profitable reason for getting off Effexor.
The antidepressant drug Effexor (venlafaxine) was discontinued sometime after 1997, (exact data not available) when some trials showed that an extended release version caused less nausea. No other trials or tests besides the nausea test can be found which indicate that the XR version has been proven any more or less safe than the original version of the drug. (1)
Effexor (venlafaxine) is thought to block certain neurotransmitters, described below, which causes an artificial though temporary effect. The effect increases in relation to the strength of the dosage. Effexor is classed as an SNRI drug, and has unique characteristics that set it apart from other re-uptake inhibiting antidepressant drugs.
Some antidepressants increase the available amount of serotonin that is active in the body. Serotonin is what influences such things as anxiety, sleep, memory, aggression, learning, mood, appetite, body temperature, and other important functions. It is an inhibitory agent. Although serotonin is stimulating to certain digestive functions, it is inhibitory to the central nervous system.
Some antidepressants affect the adrenergic receptors, such as adrenaline and norepinephrine. These are excitatory neurotransmitters, which, among other necessary functions, regulates proper blood flow, regulates blood pressure, and stimulates other changes such as those related to "fight or flight" mechanisms.
Some antidepressant drugs can purge and suspend dopamine, which is often referred to as the reward chemical, or the agent which activates the pleasure centers in the body/brain as well as motor function, long term memory, mood and emotion, addiction reinforcement, laughter, and many other responses.
EffexorXR (venlafaxene extended release) is highly unique in that it is one of a very small number of antidepressants in existence that are described as affecting reuptake of all three of these types of neurotransmitters concurrently, especially when taken at higher doses, causing a temporary surge of these agents in the body. (2)
Special warning letters and health alerts have been issued by the FDA to the makers of Effexor (now EffexorXR) since 2003 covering important health consequences including:
Risk to pregnancy
Birth defects and complications after birth
Increased risk of bone fracture linked to decreased bone mineral density in older populations
Suicidality in children and young adults
Suicidality in adults
Risk for serotonin toxicity (see Serotonin Syndrome below)
Risk for overdose especially in connection with alcohol or other concurrent medications
Cautions regarding stopping Effexor or EffexorXR abruptly.
We have described some of the important facts in more detail below for educational purposes. If you have additional questions, be sure to ask your care provider or other medical professional for further information so an informed decision can be made about your health and safety or that of a loved one.
Special Note: One of the important black box warnings states never to abruptly attempt stopping Effexor but recommends Effexor tapering to decrease dosage gradually over time whenever possible. More information on withdrawal adverse effects of EffexorXR and how to get off Effexor (venlafaxine) can be found further on in this article.
At ATMC I was always supported. The staff was great at providing opportunities for me to work towards stability. What helped me here was always keeping a positive outlook and the constant encouragement and reminders to keep faith in myself.
What is EffexorXR (Venlafaxine) Used For?
EffexorXR is approved by the FDA to be used for treating such conditions as:
MDD (Major Depression Disorder)
GAD (General Anxiety Disorder)
SAD (Social Anxiety Disorder, sometimes called Social Phobia)
PD (Panic Disorder)
In addition to the above approved uses, off label uses have become an option where other treatments for certain conditions were found unsuccessful.
Studies are sometimes done to explore the effectiveness of drugs, and where enough studies show a reasonable efficacy, the drug can eventually become approved for other purposes than the drug was originally approved for.
Such off-label uses for EffexorXR (venlafaxine) currently include:
Treatment of hot flashes in menopause
Migraines, tension headaches
Post breast cancer therapy neuropathy
Effexor Alternatives
There are various Effexor alternatives and treatments that can be researched and implemented, for successfully addressing factors of mental unease. At the Alternative to Meds Center we specialize in many methods of attaining mental health naturally, and free from prescription drugs. Once a person has grasped an understanding of how to get off Effexor safely and comfortably, it may be beneficial to pursue some of the holistic treatments the center has found to be successful.
Effexor (venlafaxine) Alternative Names and Slang
Effexor (venlafaxine) and EffexorXR have been marketed under hundreds of brand names around the world, including these interesting names:
Easyfor
Depressa
Nervix
Calmdown
Vexamode
Venjoy
Venlafaxine hydrochloride is the full generic name for Effexor and EffexorXR. Hydrochloride is a kind of chemical binder used in manufacturing this and certain other drugs. Hydrochloride is an acid, like the hydrochloric acid found in the stomach, instrumental in digestion.
Note that Effexor has now been discontinued in the US due to causing excessive nausea, and has been replaced with the time-release version called EffexorXR.
No street or slang names have emerged, as the drug never became popularized as a stand-alone drug for recreational use. However, the drug has been shown up in batches of street drugs like MDMA or ecstasy, that when analyzed did contain random amounts of drugs such as venlafaxine or other prescription drugs.
Effexor Side Effects / EffexorXR Side Effects
One of the most commonly reported negative side effects of venlafaxine is nausea. The drug manufacturer reports that it stopped making the original version of Effexor in the US because of this negative effect, and replaced it with a time-release version called EffexorXR that was more easily tolerated.
However, a much more troubling Effexor side effect was that both versions of the drug were linked to a higher risk for mortality through overdose than other SSRI type antidepressant drugs, as reported in Wyeth Pharmaceutical's 2006 letter issued to healthcare professionals. Wyeth's letter warned of this discovery that emerged after the drug was already on the market. The FDA also sent out a medical alert from its safety information program that was set up to advise consumers and caregivers of such adverse events relating to prescription drugs such as this troubling Effexor side effect.
In addition to the afore-mentioned overdose mortality risk, there are vast numbers of Effexor side effects which may lead to the decision of getting off Effexor. These adverse effects documented for venlafaxine and all of its trade names, include:
Serotonin Syndrome: a life threatening condition marked by sudden fever, sweating, muscle stiffness or muscle rigidity, trouble breathing, nausea, vomiting, hallucinations, rapid heart rate, agitation, etc.
Many drugs, including alcohol, can interact with SSNRI antidepressants, and can contribute to or enhance side effects including Serotonin Syndrome.
Suicidality emergence, thoughts of hurting oneself
Increased suicidality where already present
Loss of bone mineral density leading to fractures
Worsened depression
Worsened anxiety
Akathisia: a ceaseless internal restlessness often accompanied by constant need to be in motion, i.e., pacing, rocking, twisting, etc.
Bouts of coughing
Aggressiveness
Impulsive or erratic behaviors
Dizziness, vertigo
And many other negative physical, emotional, and cognitive side effects.
Effexor (Venlafaxine) Withdrawal Symptoms
In addition to the side effects of Effexor or EffexorXR, there are adverse effects that can accompany Effexor withdrawal.
This collective set of Effexor withdrawal symptoms is often termed Effexor Discontinuation Syndrome. These discontinuation symptoms can be extreme and even life threatening, especially where Effexor withdrawal is done abruptly or too quickly. However, it should be noted that these can occur even during a careful and gradual taper. It is highly recommended to seek medically assisted Effexor withdrawal treatment, and not try coming off the drug on one's own.
These Effexor withdrawal symptoms may include, and are not limited to the following:
Brain zaps, feeling of electric shocks through the head and neck
Headaches, migraines
Flu-like symptoms, ie., fever, chills, cramps, diarrhea, etc.
And many other adverse symptoms.
How Long do Effexor Withdrawal Symptoms Last?
The half-life of EffexorXR is anywhere from approximately 9 to 27 hours, and Effexor withddrawal symptoms can begin within a few hours of the last dose. The half-life is the time that it takes for half of the total ingested dose to be cleared from the body. This half-life period is often extended to suggest that it is equivalent to the time a person may experience the manifestations of withdrawal.
Each person's individual metabolism and genetic factors that dictate metabolism, play a part in the rate of withdrawal. This can make it largely unpredictable to determine when the withdrawal is going to manifest, when it will abate, and the severity. People with a more rapid metabolism may endure a sharper withdrawal. Effexor has a comparably short half-life for antidepressants, and as such can result in a typically more abrupt manifestation of withdrawal. Even though the half-life definition of withdrawal is measured by a number of hours, people often report a protracted withdrawal that can continue for weeks, months, or even years, especially where adequate preparations and support have not been made available in the process.
It is extremely important to bear in mind the FDA warning on stopping EffexorXR all at once. Abruptly discontinuing Effexor can introduce such a shock to the body that the withdrawals could be overwhelming and impossible to endure without medical intervention.
There are diet changes such as reducing sugar and caffeine that can be monitored during Effexor withdrawal treatment, as well as gentle exercise routines and organizing a daily schedule that allows for adequate rest and recuperation.
Discontinuing/Quitting Effexor (venlafaxine)
Can I stop Taking Effexor Cold Turkey?
The FDA has issued clear recommendations against stopping Effexor (venlafaxine) or EffexorXR too quickly and certainly warns against a "cold turkey" approach. To do so can lengthen the time needed to recover from quitting the drug. Always seek competent and professional Effexor withdrawal help.
When a person has been taking venlafaxine or any prescription drug for a period of time, the body begins compensating in many different ways that are not always obvious. Effexor addiction can be a result over time, as well as Effexor dependence. These factors of Effexor addiction and dependence can not be overlooked. Stopping Effexor after the body has become dependent on it can introduce such shock at such a rapid pace, that the change is profoundly unsettling, and can be life-threatening in some cases.
Never attempt to discontinue a drug suddenly. Always seek medical professional help and guidance before quitting Effexor (venlafaxine), EffexorXR, or any prescribed drug.
Effexor (Venlafaxine) FAQs
Below are some of the most common questions and requests for information concerning EffexorRX and Effexor (venlafaxine). We recommend always researching any drug before commencing a prescription, because in the rush of a doctor or clinic visit, time is not always set aside for education. Where a prescription has been started, but has not provided the benefits that were sought, it can be highly beneficial to inform oneself as much as possible about the reasons that a prescription based treatments were not as successful as one hoped.
Can Venlafaxine Make You Gain Weight?
Yes, some people gain weight while taking venlafaxine. This may be attributed to the drug having a stimulating effect upon appetite. There may be other contributing factors, which are not yet understood about why people will gain weight on this drug.
Does Effexor Have Caffeine?
No, Effexor does not contain caffeine. However, caffeine has been shown to interact negatively with venlafaxine because both drugs can raise blood pressure. Drinking coffee can also add to feelings of restlessness or agitation, which are symptoms that Effexor can also cause.
Can Effexor Cause Memory Loss?
Yes, any drug which causes inability to focus, causes a person to lose concentration, etc., can have a detrimental effect on memory over time. After all, it may be hard to remember something you were not able to concentrate on in the first place. (3)
What Are 'Brain Zaps?' Can Effexor Withdrawal Cause Brain Zaps?
"Brain Zaps" are a commonly reported withdrawal symptom that happens when coming off antidepressant drugs such as Effexor (venlafaxine) and EffexorXR. While it is not known exactly why they occur during drug withdrawal, the feeling of an electrical jolt or shock through the head and neck area at unexpected times can be overwhelming to endure. The electrical zap is often accompanied by nausea, ringing in the ears and other unsettling symptoms. The sensation can affect the entire head, or can move from one part of the brain to another. These jolts can occur occasionally or frequently, and can range from moderately to extremely severe, without warning, and often increase overall general anxiety and stress.

A wedding in one of the many independent wedding chapels is probably most people's image of a Las Vegas Wedding. This was where the Elvis wedding and the drive-through was born, but is also where the tradition of Las Vegas as a traditional wedding town was born as early as 1933.
Whether you want a quick, no frills $40 service, or you want to indulge your every romantic whim, the independent chapels can cater for you. You will also find most of the themed wedding ceremonies outside of the hotel chapels, so let your imagination run wild. Also remember to check if the ministers fee and limo drivers gratuity (if applicable) are included in the price of your wedding, or if they are 'extras'.
After using our browse facility to narrow down your choice, try the wedding chapel websites for additional photographs and information. Many of them can help with dress and suit hire if you need it, and can often help arrange witnesses if it's just the two of you.

Review Questions
Wheater's, pgs 414-425, The ear
Ross and Pawlina, Chapter 25, Ear
Know the structural differences between the outer, middle and inner ear and what their functions are. Be able to recognize them at the light microscope and EM levels.
Be able to distinguish the auditory parts of the inner ear from those of the vestibular system. What are their roles in hearing and balance?
What are sensory hair cells? How do they differ (in appearance and function) from neurons of the spiral ganglion?
What is presently the only known "cure" for deafness besides hearing aids?
The digital slides as well as the glass slides in your sets will show all of the cochlear structures. The vestibular structures will be present only in selected slides. The inner ear consists of a series of interconnecting sacs and tubes (the membranous labyrinth) suspended in cavities within the bone (the osseous or bony labyrinth).
Slide 080a Ear cochlea H&E View Virtual Slide
Slide EAR-1 Ear petrous temporal bone H&E View Virtual Slide
Slide EAR-3 Inner ear inner ear H&E View Virtual Slide
Slide EAR-4 Ear petrous temporal bone View Virtual Slide
Embedded within the petrous portion of the temporal bone is the bony labyrinth which consists of the central vestibule, three semicircular canals, which arise and end at the vestibule, and the cochlea. It contains a fluid called perilymph, which has a composition similar to extracellular fluids (high in Na+, low in K+).
Between the vestibule and middle ear is a tissue-covered hole in the bone, the "oval window". The footplate of the stapes #EAR-3 View Image is attached to the oval window on the middle ear side. Here, vibrations of the tympanic membrane are converted into fluid vibrations of perilymph via the bones of the middle ear.
The cochlea EAR-1 Ear petrous temporal bone H&E View Image, located anteriomedially to the vestibule consists of a tube spiraling around a bony axis (the modiolus).
The innervation of the cochlea and vestibule is as follows: The cell bodies of the cochlear neurons occupy a canal (the spiral canal) that spirals up the modiolus. This spiral aggregate of nerve cells is called the spiral (or cochlear) ganglion (see this Image for an orientation). Keep in mind that these are bipolar sensory neurons: their dendrites synapse with the hair cells in the organ of Corti (discussed below) and their axons come together in the cochlear nerve, which occupies a central canal in the modiolus and exits at the base of the cochlea. In the sensory regions of the vestibule, hair cells of the maculae and cristae (discussed below) synapse with dendrites of a corresponding aggregation of sensory neurons in the vestibular (or Scarpa's) ganglion (seen in #EAR-2 View Image, which then send their axons through the vestibular nerve. The processes of the vestibular nerve join with those of the cochlear nerve to form the vestibulocochlear nerve (cranial nerve VIII)Ear Image .
Some ancillary information:
Other neuroanatomical features of interest found within this region of the temporal bone in slide EAR-1 include the stapedius muscle #EAR-1 View Image, which is a thin bundle of skeletal muscle (innervated by the facial nerve) attached to the base of the stapes to dampen its movement. Also present is the facial nerve (cranial nerve VII) and, if the plane of section happens to be at the genu of the facial nerve, neuron cell bodies of the geniculate ganglion #EAR-1 View Image.
What is the function of the geniculate ganglion?
The geniculate ganglion is the sensory ganglion of the facial nerve and as such it contains sensory neurons that convey: taste from the palate and anterior 2/3 of the tongue; general somatic sensation from the external acoustic meatus; visceral afferent sensation from the palate and pharynx
The EAR-1 slide also shows some CNS tissue in the cranial vault #EAR-1 View Image; see if you can identify this organ.
Cerebellum --you should be able to identify the molecular layer, granular layer, and the very large Purkinje cells.
The membranous labyrinth consists of the interconnected utricle, saccule, three semicircular ducts, the endolymphatic duct and sac, and the cochlear duct. It contains a fluid, endolymph, much like intracellular fluid in composition (high K+, low Na+). You will not have difficulty recognizing the cochlear duct (scala media).
1. The utricle and the saccule contain the otolith organs that lie within the bony vestibule bony vestibule Image . These otolith organs consist of sensory areas called maculae , and you should note that they are oriented somewhat perpendicular to each other to be able detect movement in different planes. Taking a closer look at a macula (a really nice macula of the utricle is visible in #EAR-2 View Image, you should be able to identify the sensory epithelium comprised of hair cells and supporting cells (these can't be differentiated in the light microscope, but you should know the functions of each). It is overlaid by a gelatinous material (otolithic membrane) in which are embedded calcite crystals (otoliths or otoconia). The otoconia are quite visible in some slides, hardly visible in others. Beneath the sensory epithelium is a delicate connective tissue (filled with perilymph) and nerve fibers from the bipolar neurons of the vestibular (Scarpa's) ganglion. Note: you DO NOT need to be able to tell the macula of the utricle from the macula of the saccule, but you should be able to identify them as maculae in general and recall that maculae detect linear acceleration.
2. The semicircular ducts have dilations (ampullae) near their origins from the utricle. Each ampulla has a ridge of tissue, or crista ampullaris, (best seen in #EAR-2 View Image) that projects into the lumen. The crista has a sensory epithelium similar to that of the macula; recall, however, that the cristae are specialized to detect angular (or rotational) acceleration. The hairs of the hair cells project into a gelatinous material called the cupula. The cupula projects into the lumen more than the otolithic membrane of the macula, and lacks otoconia.
What would happen if any otoconia or other debris were to become lodged somewhere in a semicircular canal or in a cupula? Answer
Note that the "membrane" of the membranous labyrinth is suspended from the bone by a delicate connective tissue and that in the Ear-1 and Ear-2 slides this tissue has torn such that the membrane is now squished up against the crista, so there's not much of the cupula that can be seen Image.
3. The cochlear duct or scala media #EAR-1 View Image contains the organ of Corti, which detects sound (hearing). The cochlear duct is a triangular tube that is suspended in the middle of the spiraling bony labyrinth of the cochlea, thus subdividing this space into three spiraling sub-compartments, or "scalae": the scala vestibuli, which opens on the vestibule; the scala media; and the scala tympani, which ends at the round window (the round window is not seen in any your slides). The scala vestibuli and scala tympani are both elements of the bony labyrinth and contain perilymph; the scala media or cochlear duct is an element of the membranous labyrinth and contains endolymph.
Elements of the cochlear duct that can be seen in cross section are: cochlear duct Image
The vestibular membrane (also called Reissner's membrane) is the tissue separating the cochlear duct from the scala vestibuli.
The stria vascularis is a stratified epithelium along the outer wall of the cochlear duct that is unique in that it is vascularized (most epithelia are avascular) by an extensive capillary network --this is probably best shown in slide 80 #080a View Image; where you can see numerous profiles of capillaries containing RBCs. Cells of the stria vascularis are responsible for the production and maintenance of endolymph.
The basilar membrane #EAR-1 View Image extends from the tip of the osseous spiral lamina of the central modiolus to the outer wall of the cochlea and separates the cochlear duct from the scala tympani. The organ of Corti rests on the basilar membrane.
Notice that the width of the basilar membrane changes such that it is shorter at the base and longer toward the apex of the cochlea. What is the significance of this change in length?
The length of the basilar membranes determines its resonance frequency, or the frequency at which transduced sound waves will cause maximal displacement of the basilar membrane. Low-pitched sounds (low frequency sound waves) cause maximal deflection of the basilar membrane (and therefore maximal stimulation of the hair cells in the organ of Corti) toward the apex of the cochlea where the basilar membrane is longer. High-pitched sounds stimulate hair cells toward the base of the cochlea where the basilar membrane is shorter. Perhaps a bit silly, but here's a mnemonic: "It's low-nly at the top" (low pitched sounds stimulate hair cells at the top or apex of the cochlea).
The organ of Corti #EAR-1 View Image consists of two kinds of hair cells and various supporting cells in a complex arrangement (NOTE: you may notice green lipid granules in some of the outer supporting cells, particularly toward the apex of the cochlea, in slide 80 --it's not a detail worth worrying about, but these support cells can change their mass and volume by altering the amount of lipid in their cytoplasm. The overall effect is a subtle change in the overall geometry of the organ of Corti and thus is a mechanism for fine tuning the sensitivity of the organ, particularly to low frequency sound).
The organ of Corti contains: organ of Corti Image
The outer hair cells surrounded by outer phalangeal cells. There are three rows of outer hair cells. The apices of these cells and their phalangeal cells are joined together to form the reticular membrane (also called reticular lamina or apical cuticular plate) that separates endolymph in the scala media from underlying corticolymph and perilymph of the scala tympani. Lateral to the outer hair cells and phalangeal cells are other support cells, but you don't need to worry about knowing their specific types. Note that outer hair cells account for only ~5-10% of the sensory input into the auditory system. The primary function of outer hair cells is actually to contract when stimulated, thus "pulling" on the tectoral membrane thereby stimulating the inner hair cells.
Outer and inner pillar cells outline a triangular shaped tunnel, called the inner tunnel, which is filled with perilymph-like fluid called corticolymph.
The inner hair cells are in a single row close to the inner pillar cells (you may see more than one inner cell nucleus because of the thickness of the section). Note that the inner hair cells account for ~90-95% of the sensory input into the auditory system.
The organ of Corti is overlaid by a gelatinous tectorial membrane (produced and maintained by the columnar cells found atop the spiral limbus just medial to the organ of Corti).
Nerve fibers enter the organ of Corti through openings in a shelf of bone extending from the modiolus like the thread of a screw. The nerve fibers pass between supporting cells to synapse with the hair cells.
Compare the innervation and function of the inner vs. outer hair cells.
Inner and outer hair cells have synapses with both afferent and efferent fibers, but at very different proportions. Inner hair cells account for about 90% of the INPUT into the auditory system, so they synapse mostly with afferent fibers from neurons of the spiral ganglion. The primary function of inner hair cells is SENSORY: they detect deflection of the basilar membrane. Outer hair cells are mostly innervated by efferent fibers (i.e. output from the CNS, particularly the medial superior olivary nucleus, to the cochlea), and they have the ability to contract when stimulated (either by deflection of their stereocilia caused by movement of the basilar membrane or from these efferent synapses). The primary function of outer hair cells is, therefore, MODULATORY: contraction/relaxation of the outer hair cells affects overall movement of the basilar membrane and essentially "tunes" the organ of Corti to be more or less sensitive to particular sound frequencies.
A few notes about deafness: Disruption of any part of the process by which sound waves are transduced into input into the auditory portion of the CNS will result in "deafness." Damage to the eardrum or ossicles results in so-called "conduction" deafness whereby sound waves are no longer transmitted into the inner ear. In this instance, a patient would NOT be able to hear a tuning fork held near the pinna, and the loss of hearing would extend across the entire range of frequencies. However, placing the stem of the fork on a bony part of the skull (e.g. the mastoid process) would then transmit vibrations directly to the inner ear (via the bone) where they could then be "heard."
Loss of components within the cochlea results in sensorineural deafness which is more frequency-specific (i.e. the patient will not be able to hear specific pitches depending on the location of the damage in the cochlea). Loss of OUTER HAIR CELLS in a particular region of the cochlea would result in a "threshold shift" whereby sound of a particular frequency could still be detected (because the inner hair cells are still intact), but it would have to be LOUDER to make up for the fact that there are no outer hair cells to help stimulate the inner hair cells. This type of hearing loss can be compensated by a hearing aid.
Loss of INNER HAIR CELLS in a particular region of the cochlea would result in an almost complete inability to detect specific frequencies regardless of how loud they are. Loss of SPIRAL GANGLION CELLS would have a similar effect since these are the cells that actually project into the CNS. In both cases, the deafness could only be corrected with a cochlear implant.

'Beyond belief': Decision made to remove unauthorized work at historic Shuswap fire lookout
Salvageable material at Eagle Pass lookout to be saved for possible future restoration project
Lachlan Labere
Aug. 27, 2021 4:00 p.m.
Like the structure it replaced, a rehabilitated former Shuswap fire lookout may soon become history.
According to an email obtained by the Observer from Rec Sites and Trails BC (RSTBC ) – part of the Ministry of Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development (FLNRORD) – the existing structure, built on the foundation of the Eagle Pass Dominion Lookout, will not be repaired. Instead it will be "restored by a heritage professional under contract… to the state it was in immediately previous to the unauthorized improvements in 2016."
Prior to the new construction, what remained of the 1922 lookout had been described as dilapidated rock walls and foundation.
With volunteer labour and donations, local outdoor enthusiasts constructed a 14-by-14 foot flat-roof structure on the site. In September 2017, a stop work order was issued by the province preventing its completion. Individuals behind the project said they had talked to officials at Front Counter BC, and had left thinking no formal approval was needed to do the work. They later learned a permit was needed, and FLNRORD initiated an investigation into unauthorized work.
A Dec. 2017 Heritage Conservation Impact Statement on the site noted numerous ways in which the rehabilitated (not restored) structure failed to reflect heritage values, along with structural concerns. Among them, the report noted a flat roof may cause "excessive pressure on the historic foundation, as additional weight of the snow load may be more than acceptable for the building's base." It also commented on the mortar used, and how "changing the mortar and building method of the stone foundation impacts the integrity of workmanship used to build the foundation from materials found on-location."
"The stone foundation was originally constructed with commonly used practices for the time (1922); the addition of modern materials erases the authenticity of this aspect of the feat of building a lookout in a rugged location such as Eagle Pass," reads the report.
Also presented was a habitat impact statement which noted the area of the cabin is used by mountain caribou, mountain goats and grizzly bears. It recommended restricted helicopter access to the area and the installation of signage warning people to leave the area clean, not feed wildlife and keep their distance from animals. It also suggested the cabin should be locked in the winter to minimize the disturbance to goats and caribou, and that overnight use should not be permitted unless proper waste management was put in place.
An Eagle Pass Lookout working group was formed to consider options for the structure. From that came the decision to dismantle the work done, possibly in 2022, with salvageable material being saved for use in a potential future lookout rehabilitation project.
"RSTBC will provide an opportunity to involve community volunteers in the dismantling of the unauthorized structure and restoration of the previous structure," reads the email.
After the stop work order was issued, local politicians supportive of the work done began speaking out. Among them was Shuswap MLA Greg Kyllo, Splatsin band councillors and the District of Sicamous.
Sicamous Coun. Gord Bushell was one of those politicians who worked to preserve work done on the structure. He said it is "beyond belief" the RTSBC would tear it down.
"I'm really at a loss for words," said Bushell, frustrated by the news. "I've never seen something so ridiculous in my life, wanting to take it down and put it back up."
Asked about the deficiencies, Bushell said there was nothing wrong with the structure and that the ministry was looking for reasons to tear it down. He did say the structure has sustained some damage since the stop work order was issued.
"The structure itself was not finished and one of the things they should have done was built some weather shutters to stop the snow pressure from pushing in on the window, because it's completely snowed in, you can't use it in the winter time," said Bushell. "They wouldn't let us finish it or even work on it, so it's in need of repair."
Members of the Splatsin Band have taken part in the working group. A Cultural Heritage Overview Assessment recommended by the group would involve working with the band to determine the historical use of the area and if the restored lookout would be compatible. If so, and a community partner commits to ongoing maintenance, the RSTBC would consider rehabilitating the fire lookout structure for day use only, "with the assistance of a heritage building conservation specialist."
The Shuswap Trail Alliance (STA) has been tasked to complete an Adaptive Plan for the Eagle Pass and Twin Lakes Area – work that was put on hold this summer due to wildfires.
STA executive director Jen Bellhouse said the adaptive plan involves looking at what improvements can be made on the trail leading up to Eagle Pass as well as options for overnight stays in the area. She suggested the Twin Lakes area would be more suitable for a rec site with the correct facilities such as an outhouse.
"Twin Lakes would maybe be a little more hospitable to set up a campground," said Bellhouse.

SRA takes over 16 months to approve ABS
Monday 10 June 2013 by John Hyde
The Solicitors Regulation Authority took a record 16 months and 26 days to process the alternative business structure application of personal injury firm Minster Law, it has emerged.
Outgoing Minster chairman Adrian Christmas told the Gazette that he applied to gain ABS status on 3 January 2012 - the day the SRA began accepting applications.
The application was finally granted on 29 May this year after regulators agreed to a takeover of the firm by insurance company BGL Group for an undisclosed sum. BGL also owns the Compare the Market comparison website.
Minster and BGL have enjoyed a long working relationship which has included the payment of fees for personal injury cases.
Christmas denied the SRA had taken so long over the application because of concerns about compliance relating to the ban on referral fees which came into force in April.
'It has taken 18 months to get over the line because of the complex ownership structure,' said Christmas. 'Discussions about the ABS were happening long before the ban.
'[The SRA] is seeking out people who sell details to lawyers. We don't buy claims - we pay for servicing a book of customers and whether they turn into claims is a matter of luck on their front.'
As the sole shareholder of Minster's holding company and joint director of the firm, Christmas stands to receive millions from the sale. He estimated that Minster, which was founded in 2006, accounts for up to 15% of personal injury work carried out in England and Wales.
The firm has offices in York and Wakefield and employs more than 800 people, of whom 200 are fee-earners. It handled more than 40,000 PI claims in the last financial year and more than doubled profits, to £3.8m.

Marydale "Maymay" Entrata is the winner of Pinoy Big Brother: Lucky Season 7.
She's dubbed as the Miss Wacky-Go-Lucky of Cagayan De Oro because of her wacky, funny and vibrant personality. It was proven as she made the house full of laughter throughout the season, which worked for her advantage to avoid nominations.
Maymay was the Lucky Teen Housemate chosen by the Celebrity housemates after accomplishing 6 out of 7 lucky tasks to become a fully pledged housemate for the second part which is the Teen Edition.
She entered the house a day after the two Celebrity Housemates, Jinri Park and Nikko Natividad & McCoy DeLeon were announced as the two Lucky Stars finalists. It would be also the day where the first two Lucky Stars, would temporarily leave the house to give way for the upcoming Teen Edition. Maymay was the first teen housemate to enter the house, being the Lucky Teen Housemate. Since she was the first teen housemate to enter the house, the two Celebrity Housemates Jinri Park and Nikko Natividad & McCoy DeLeon were tasked to give her a dramatic welcome challenging how she'll act in an unpleasant situation.
Throughout her stay in the house, she made a close friendship with Kisses Delavin whom she treats as her best friend inside the house as well as Edward Barber. She also stood up as the Big Sister for the Teen Housemates since she was the eldest among them.
Maymay is known as an avid fangirl of ABS-CBN Celebrities and her priceless fangirl reactions whenever popular Celebrities visit the house became one of the most memorable moments of the Season. As a result, she was given the moniker "National Fangirl".
Aside from that, she was also the most pranked housemate of the season. Big Brother loves to pull pranks on Maymay throughout the Teen Edition of this season.
The two most notable were the series of pranks by Big Brother whenever Maymay keep on requesting for her idol, the Filipino actor, Enrique Gil to visit the house, but later rewarded her with a private date with Enrique on Week 10, and on Week 17 was the prank started by Tanner Mata and then joined by Big Brother himself, making Maymay think that she slept for two days and with the help of her fellow teen and adult housemates, they pretended they were gone and then returned to the house as if it's already morning and wondering why Maymay was missing for two days. She was also known for her crazy Diary Room moments with Big Brother and her funny and wacky antics.
She was the first housemate to temporarily leave the house more than once without the 24 hour limit and then returned after a few days. She left the house twice on Week 8 to attend the wake and the burial of her grandfather who died while she was inside the house.
On Week 19, after Kisses Delavin became the second Lucky Sun finalist, Maymay was left for another week with Yong Muhajil on the nominations' list for the third Lucky Sun slot. After a week, Maymay won with 57.57% of votes while Yong got 45.43% of votes, making her third teen housemate to be have a spot for the eventual Dream Team Chapter.
A day after the 3 teen finalists were completed, Maymay, Kisses and Edward temporarily left the house to give way for the upcoming third chapter which is the Civilian Adult Edition.
Maymay and the rest of the Lucky Suns returned once again inside the house to compete against the Adults' Lucky House finalits and the Celebrities' Lucky Star finalists. Three winning wildcard housemates were added as well on each of the teams, making the teams have 4 members each.
In the Dream Team Chapter, aside from her loyal Lucky Sun housemates, Maymay also formed friendship along other Dream Team housemates, most especially among the Lucky Stars' Celebrity Finalists such as Nonong Ballinan whom she treated as a father figure to him, even calling him "tatay" a Tagalog word for father, as well as Jinri Park whom she treated as her Big Sister in the house. When both were evicted consecutively, Maymay was left devastated.
Throughout the Dream Team, she maintained her "safe" status and avoided the nominations block all throughout until the Big Night. On Day 228 of Week 34, she was proclaimed as among the Lucky 7 Dream Team Finalists to continue on the Finale.
On the evening of March 4, 2017 which was the first evening of the two-night Big Night finale, Maymay Entrata with her fellow teen finalists Kisses Delavin, Edward Barber and Yong Muhajil advanced into the Big Four and continued on to the second evening of the finale where the Big Winner will eventually be announced.
On the evening of March 5, 2017, Maymay ended up on the final two with her bestfriend, Kisses Delavin where she received 42.71% of votes over Kisses who got 31.27% of public votes, making her the winner of the longest season in the history of Pinoy Big Brother, beating 30 housemates in total.
The Miss Wacky-Go-Lucky of Cagayan De Oro
Marydale "MayMay" Entrata is a 20-year old student from Cagayan De Oro, studying at Mindanao University of Science and Technology (MUST). She was selected by the celebrity housemates themselves from the pool of auditionees. Her father left when she was one year old to start a new family, while her mother is an overseas worker based in Japan.
There's never a dull moment whenever the housemates bond with 19-year old Maymay Entrata and for her, she could easily describe herself as "cheerful." The "Wacky-go-lucky of Cagayan de Oro" shared that the reason she joined Pinoy Big Brother is to get her mom and brother back who are currently in Japan.
Maymay also came from a big family and she also wishes to take her family back in Davao since not all of them are working. When asked if she idolizes any of the past housemates, she said, "They said I'm like the two, Kim (Chui) and Melai (Cantiveros) and if combined KiMelai."
When asked why she deserves to be the big winner, she answered, "I want to be an inspiration to everyone."
"I will do everything to be an inspiration for everyone especially to those who are hopeless to reach their dreams," she added.
Before joining PBB, Maymay was an ordinary college student and she shared that there was a time when her allowance going to school is just P5. She said that she has the option to spend that P5 for her transportation or for her food but she always chose to buy food instead.
For her, she describes the word love as "You don't know how to care for someone if you there's no love, that's the most important for me" while family is "they're you're life-long companion to everything."
When asked about God she said that He is the source of everything and this is all temporary.[1]

Finale Winner

Maymay walking for Amato Couture in Dubai for the 2018 Arab Fashion Week.
Maymay's success skyrocketed right after she won Big Brother. Just months after winning Big Brother, Maymay alongside her Big Four court have appeared on numerous TV shows together in ABS-CBN, such as late night talk shows like Gandang Gabi Vice and Tonight with Boy Abunda, game shows like Minute to Win It, variety shows like It's Showtime and ASAP and the morning talk show wikipedia:Magandang Buhay Magandang Buhay. Maymay's life story was even featured in the drama anthology series, "Maalaala Mo Kaya" in which she portrayed herself.
She appeared on front page cover of the Inside Showbiz Weekly magazine for two consecutive weeks on March 25-31, 2017 and together with Edward on April 1-7, 2017 . She also had a new tv commercial for McDonald's Philippines together with her fellow housemate Edward Barber.
Maymay and her fellow Big Four finalists also sang ABS-CBN's Summer Station ID entitled "Ikaw ang Sunshine Ko" together with some other teen celebrities which was first released as a lyric video in Youtube on April 6, 2017.
On May 6, 2017 she had a lavish celebration for her 20th birthday held at the Conrad Manila, which was attended by her family, her Big Brother housemates and her supporters who organized the event for her.
Maymay together with Kisses Delavin, Heaven Peralejo, Elisse Joson as well as other female Filipino celebrities of the decade were featured in the August 2017 issue cover of Mega Magazine.
In 2018, Maymay sung the official themesong of ABS-CBN Star Hunt, entitled "Bituin" (eng. Star).
On November 2018, Maymay was invited to walk for Dubai-based Filipino Couturier Furne One's Spring Summer 2018 Collection of Amato Couture in the 2018 Arab Fashion Week. She made history as she became the first Filipina to walk in the runways of the Arab Fashion Week.
In 2019, Maymay became one of the hosts of World of Dance Philippines' Online show, along with Riva Quenery and AC Bonifacio.
Maymay was the Lucky Teen Housemate chosen by the Celebrity Housemates to be a housemate for the teen edition after they won 6 out of 7 lucky tasks.
Maymay only got nominated in the Big Jump Weeks when the last 3 teens except Edward Barber faced the public to determine which one of them will get the two Lucky Suns.
She got among the least nomination points received in Pinoy Big Brother history.
She was among the oldest teen housemates to enter for the Teen Edition, at age 19.
She was the first housemate to ever leave the Big Brother House twice without having the 24 hour rule.
Usually, the 24-hour rule is being implemented whenever a housemate needs serious medical care and has to be rushed into the hospital, but they have to come back to the house within 24 hours, if they exceeded to the time limit, they will be forcibly evicted. However, due to her grandfather's death, Big Brother allowed Maymay to visit the wake of her grandfather as well as her funeral.
Maymay was the third housemate in the history of Pinoy Big Brother to compose and record a song inside the house. She recorded her own written song entitled Baliw (eng. Crazy) with Edward Barber..
Throughout the Dream Team Chapter, Maymay with her fellow housemates had composed various songs, just for fun and entertainment. It was formally recorded and released on Spotify and iTunes on March 4, 2017, which were used as Opening Songs for the season's Big Night. Lyric Videos were also uploaded 3 days after its official release.
The songs are Nasaan ang Pusa? which was made just for fun out of boredom, Ligtask which was composed by the male housemates for the first nominees of the Dream Team Jinri, Aura and Jerome and Titig ng Pag-Ibig which was used as a theme song for their Live Drama Task.
She became the 14th housemate to win Pinoy Big Brother.
Technically, she became the 6th Teen Contestant to win Pinoy Big Brother and the first one to win in a non-all teen season.
She became the 8th female contestant to win Pinoy Big Brother, making the show dominated by female winners.
She was often compared to Melisa Cantiveros as both were known for their vibrant and wacky personalities. However, many of Maymay's haters used it to criticize her, saying she just copied Melisa's gestures, the way she speaks and just faking it to get attention. It just happened that both were Visayan speakers and both of their provinces are located in Mindanao region.

Connecting in Times of Crisis: Eye Contact
Dr. Martha G. Welch discusses the importance of eye-contact in connecting with one another and reducing stress.
Remember bumping into an old friend on the street? Your eyes meet, you break into a wide smile, and the chaos of your day falls away. These incidental connections used to be built into our lifestyles, from catching up at the office water cooler to sharing a smile with a stranger in the elevator. More social interaction and changes of scene provide more novel opportunities for eye contact.
But after physically distancing for months, it's easy to fall into patterns of disconnect. In this world of social separation, we live in parallel with our loved ones, often looking at devices more than at them. Even those who are out in the world (such as essential workers) may be having trouble making eye contact, because we've been avoiding getting close to people or directly facing them for fear of spreading the virus. And without practice, eye contact becomes uncomfortable.
If making eye contact feels difficult, it's a sign we need to connect.
At the Nurture Science Program, we study what happens when distressing events separate us from the people we care about. Our research has shown that when we aren't connected with others, our behavior changes and our brains can't function well. In this blog series, we're sharing our evidence-based seven connecting activities, which help us foster emotional connection. Today we focus on eye contact.
Eye contact can establish connection, but it can also be a by-product of connection. When two people are emotionally connected, they love to look into each other's eyes. In the NICU, we have observed that when a mother expresses deep emotions to her baby, the baby reciprocates by making eye contact, often for the first time.
Eye contact is so vital to well-being, that we're programmed to do it from birth: the distance a newborn can see (8-12 inches) is the same distance from a mother's breast to her eyes. When a mother disengages from her phone and sustains eye contact with her feeding baby, the two teach each other the intimate language of eye contact, and the baby makes more effort to communicate.
This lesson has deep body implications for infants and adults alike. Our eyes have oxytocin receptors in them (think "love at first sight"). And oxytocin, the hormone of nurturing and connection, has lifelong health benefits, like lowering levels of stress, pain, and inflammation, and regulating our heartbeats and breathing.
Today's tip: Practicing eye contact
Make time to sit with someone you care about. Breathe deeply, relax your bodies, and look into each other's eyes.
Notice that when you feel like running away from your feelings, you might break eye contact. With practice, you'll be able to sustain eye contact or re-engage quickly.
If someone has difficulty with eye contact, be patient: making eye contact feels vulnerable when you're in a fight-flight-freeze reaction. Use your eyes to show that the other person is safe and that you are open and listening, allowing them to meet your gaze in their own time.
It's ok to look away while you gather your thoughts or tap into your feelings, just be sure to look back.
If you are vision impaired or blind, orient your eyes towards the other person as much as possible. Picture them in your mind's eye. You may even want to touch their face, tracing their eyelids and eyebrows with your fingertips.
If you have children, try making it a game at first! Play peek-a-boo, have a staring contest, or have them guess what you're feeling based on what they see in your face.
It is impossible to make simultaneous eye contact over video chat. But position the other person's video image so that their eyes are as close to your camera as possible. This lets you switch back and forth between their face and the camera without appearing to break gaze.
You can start a video call by taking 5 second turns looking straight into the camera, so that you can see each other's eyes. You'll understand why it's so important when the other person does it for you: you'll feel so much more connected.
Practice making eye contact whenever you can, even briefly, no matter what activity you're doing.
Find daily rituals for sustained eye contact: maybe on waking, at bedtime, and at mealtime.
Notice how many incidental opportunities for eye contact pop up when you look for them: asking each other questions, offering help with something, or sharing a joke.
The eyes are the windows to the soul. Through them, we can't help but share our innermost feelings with each other. Incorporating more eye contact into your emotional expression will have profound effects on your wellbeing, and your ability to engage in meaningful emotional exchange with others. Connecting is a step towards building a world of empathy, cooperation, and reciprocity. Open your windows.
Let's take care of each other,
Martha G. Welch, MD, DFAPA
Director, Columbia Nurture Science Program

Connecting in Times of Crisis: Crying
Crying is an important part of the physiology of feelings. It's how babies communicate their needs: to be fed, cleaned, or comforted (by touch, smell, milk, or voice). But even as we grow up and develop language, crying remains a powerful and valid form of expression.
Connecting in Times of Crisis: Connecting Through Upset
Feeling upset is not a sign of weakness, it's a powerful signal that we need to connect to each other. Only through connection – mutually expressing our deep feelings – will we find tangible, visceral relief.

New Georgia Project
THE NEW GEORGIA PROJECT IS A NONPARTISAN EFFORT TO REGISTER AND CIVICALLY ENGAGE THESE GEORGIANS.
Georgia's population is growing and becoming increasingly diverse. Over the past decade, the population of Georgia increased 18%. The New American Majority - people of color, those 18 to 29 years of age, and unmarried women - is a significant part of that growth. The New American Majority makes up 62% of the voting age population in Georgia, but they are only 53% of registered voters.
Stop Voter Suppression in GA-6 Congressional District!
On June 20, 2017, there will be a runoff election to fill the vacancy in Georgia's 6th Congressional District left when Tom Price was confirmed as Secretary of Health and Human Services. We are demanding that the Secretary of State comply with federal law and set the voter registration deadline for no more than 30 days before the runoff election! The voter registration deadline for the April 18th election was March 20th, approximately 30 days from an election, which is in alignment with the National Voting Rights Act. The runoff will be held on June 20th. The NVRA requires the VR deadline to be on or around May 22nd. GA's SOS has set the VR deadline for the June 20th election as March 20th. This means eligible voters in GA's 6th congressional district are blocked for 90 days from registering and participating in an important election. This is what modern-day voter suppression looks like. Setting a VR deadline for 90 days before the election is an attempt to keep the electorate as small as possible. This is not what democracy looks like. As Georgia's "Chief Elections Officer" Secretary Kemp's job is to use his office and the law and technology to remove barriers to voting not construct them! --Update-- Thank you for signing the petition Stop Voter Suppression in GA-6 Congressional District! The relief we sought has been granted. The voter registration deadline has been moved to May 21st at 11:59 pm -- 30 days before the June 20th runoff. This means that tens of thousands of Georgians in the three GA-06 counties will be added to the rolls and the Sixth Congressional District will have the highest registration rates of all of GA's congressional districts. Your support was valuable, and we're going to ask you to remain vigilant with us as we work to ensure that Brian Kemp follow's the orders of the court.
