Posted By: Jack Wills December 14, 2017
We all remember how the 2013/14 season ended up, Steven Gerrard had *that* slip in *that* game, allowing Demba Ba to score the winner for Chelsea. Then days later, Liverpool blew a 3-0 lead down at Selhurst part to draw 3-3, in a game subsequently nicknamed Crystalbul. This culminated in Liverpool blowing the chance to win the Premier League. After a late-season victory over Manchester City, they had one hand firmly grasped on the trophy, with captain Steven Gerrard leading a post-game huddle in which he audibly screamed "this does not slip, this does not f*****g slip!" Ironically, he slipped physically, and Liverpool slipped down to second place. This disastrous end to the season really overshadowed the great work done by Liverpool over the season, and in particular, their English striker, Daniel Sturridge. Daniel Sturridge played 33 games in all competitions in the 2013/14 season, scoring 24 goals, a truly terrific goal rate. Sturridge was playing the best football of his career, and going in to the 2014 World Cup, he had the hopes of a nation pinned to him. He had his own unique goal celebration dance move and was the star of a Subway advert. Life was going well for the young striker from Birmingham, and the sky appeared to be the limit for the striker. Now, three and a half years later, he is still at Liverpool, but for how long? He is a shadow for his former self. Injuries and bad luck have blighted his career and left him just a name on the long list of English strikers to almost fulfil his potential.
Sturridge started his career at Manchester City, the club that would go on to break his heart in 2014. Back then, Manchester City weren't filthy stinking rich, they were, in fact, pretty awful. They had a great youth academy, one which won the Youth FA Cup in 2007-08. A young striker called Daniel Sturridge was top scorer in that competition, scoring in the first leg of the final against Chelsea. He made his first-team debut for City against Reading in February 2007. A month afterwards, he suffered a serious hip injury which kept him out for the rest of 2007. He was just a teenager at the time, but this proved to be the first of many bad injuries which hampered his career.
Sturridge fought back to be fit and scored his first professional goal for the Sky Blues in an FA Cup match against Sheffield United in January 2008. Just three days later, Sturridge earned his first league start for City, and scored his first league goal, against Derby County. He found games hard to come by in the 07/08 season but managed to earn sixteen games the following season, scoring four goals. This should have been the breakthrough season for Sturridge, but his progression was stilted by a financial takeover by the Abu Dhabi United Group. They paid big money for players like Robinho, Jo and Benjani Mwaruwari, which meant that youth players such as Sturridge were taken for granted.
Sturridge was unhappy at his playing time in Manchester and decided to leave when his contract expired in 2009, as Chelsea is obviously famed for nurturing their youth products. Amazingly, he didn't end up on loan at Vitesse, but he did end up back up north. After a decent first year at Chelsea, he went to Bolton to gain more first-team opportunities. Daniel had a fantastic start with the Trotters, grabbing a goal on his debut against Wolves in injury time, before scoring in his next three games, against Spurs, Everton and Newcastle. His game time dried up and he ended up playing only twelve matches but netted eight goals in this period. He was sent off against Manchester City in his final match for Bolton.
This red card was a stupid one for Sturridge to pick up. It meant that he was out for the first three games of his return to Chelsea. This was infuriating for new manager Andre Villas-Boas, who intended to utilise the pace of Sturridge in his new look Blues team. He was drafted into the team in a return to Bolton, whereby he scored twice and set up Frank Lampard in a 5-1 victory. He kept his scoring form up, netting against Newcastle, Wigan and Spurs, to name but a few. He tailed off towards the end of the season, with interim boss Roberto Di Matteo opting to leave him on the bench during Chelsea's famous Champions League win against Bayern Munich.
His form at Bolton and Chelsea hadn't gone unnoticed by Fabio Capello, who handed Studger his England debut against Sweden in 2011. Despite his excellent goalscoring form, new England coach Roy Hodgson chose to omit Sturridge from his Euro 2012 squad. Instead, he played for Team GB at the 2012 London Olympics. Sturridge scored twice in this competition, against the United Arab Emirates and then against Uruguay, before missing his decisive penalty in the shootout against South Korea.
He returned to Chelsea after the summer and played seven matches, before making another Premier League move, returning up north, this time to Liverpool. This move proved to be a big one for Sturridge, as he found himself in a title challenging team under Brendan Rodgers the season after he signed. He hit the ground running at the scouse club, scoring on his debut, in the FA Cup, scoring on his league debut against Manchester United a couple days later, then scoring on his first league start against Norwich the week after. He spent the start of his Liverpool career being played alongside Luis Suarez but spent the end of the season playing without the Uruguayan, after Suarez was banned for ten matches for biting Chelsea's Serbian fullback Branislav Ivanovic. Liverpool were showing signs of improving under Rodgers, but the same old mistakes from previous regimes could not be so easily overridden, and the Reds slumped to thirteen draws and nine league loses on the season.
The following season was where everything simply clicked for Sturridge and Liverpool. Sturridge has been a clinical striker throughout his career. His pace can see him turn nothing into something, his tenacity can force even the best defenders to make mistakes, and his natural sense of positioning can help him find the right position at the right time to sniff out a goal. These attributes were all apparent in 2013/14. He started the season with a bang and didn't ever look like stopping. He scored four goals in the first month of the season, as well as proving a couple of assists to Luis Suarez, earning him a player of the month accolade. He went on to break records that season, becoming the first Liverpool player to score in seven consecutive games, an outstanding feat considering some of the world-class centre forwards that have played in front of the Kop. He then scored against Swansea to become only the second Premier League player to score in eight matches on the bounce. He scored five goals in February to be named player of the month once again.
Sturridge was forming an electric partnership with Luis Suarez, with the pair scoring for fun, and setting each other up in good measure. Sturridge ended the year with a total of 21 league goals, second only to Suarez in the golden boot race, who had 31 goals in 33 games. Admittedly, Suarez scored about twenty of these against Norwich City! Sturridge missed a few games through injuries, meaning he only played 29 matches in the league. These stats should have been enough to win Liverpool their first ever Premier League title, but they bottled it towards the end. They beat title rivals Manchester City 3-2 in late April 2014 to all but seal the title, but a Steven Gerrard blunder against Chelsea and a cataclysmic breakdown against Crystal Palace saw the title slip between their fingers.
The heartbreaker for Sturridge is that he never won a trophy in that team. He won a couple of FA Cups at Chelsea, along with a Premier League and the Champions League, but he was always a squad player, a bit part, a cog in the wheel. When you talk about the teams that won those competitions, Sturridge's name is far down that list. But if he had won the league with Liverpool that year, he would have become a legend at Anfield. After the best eighteen months of his career, it all started to unravel. It wasn't a result of his Subway advert, but it certainly went downhill from then…
He went to World Cup 2014 with a lot of pressure on him, as is the way with England players. He was expected to lead the line, his phenomenal scoring record encouraging a fan base who were unusually pessimistic going into the tournament. England were drawn in Group D against Italy, Uruguay and Costa Rica. Daniel Sturridge started all three games, scoring in England's opening game with an outstretched goal against Italy. Unfortunately for Sturridge, and England, that was his only goal. He was pivotal in creating Wayne Rooney's goal against Uruguay, their second 2-1 defeat in two games. He led the line against Costa Rica, but a dejected England side, already eliminated, couldn't find a way through.
The 2014/15 season was something of a disaster for Sturridge, and for Liverpool. Suarez picked up a four-month ban for biting Giorgio Chiellini in the World Cup, and, despite his monumental ban, Barcelona paid a £75 million transfer fee for the Uruguayan. Liverpool reinvested a chunk of the money, but in terms of strikers, they bought Mario Balotelli and Rickie Lambert… This was made even worse when star striker Daniel Sturridge became plagued with injuries.
Sturridge managed only twelve appearances in 2014/15, amassing four goals in a season that was painfully stop-start for the striker. A knee injury would keep him out for three weeks, then, whilst on international duty with England, a thigh injury ruled him out for over a month. This was an injury that proved to be a real issue for Sturridge, one which would reappear over the next couple of years. The worst injury of his career would occur in March 2015, a hip injury which would see him out for over six months. This meant that he missed both the end of the season and, more concerningly for the Reds, the start of the following season. The 2014/15 season was fast becoming a write-off, but to miss the man who so nearly gave Liverpool their first ever Premier League title just one year before, that was bordering on disastrous.
Sturridge came into the 2015/16 season five weeks late, desperate to help improve on Liverpool's 6th place finish. They brought in Roberto Firmino, Christian Benteke and Danny Ings to bolster the front line and meant that Sturridge had an even fiercer battle for centre-forward than he had when he suffered his injuries the year before. He played a couple of games under Brendan Rodgers, but then suffered a knee injury which kept him out for a month. When he returned, Rodgers had gone and Jürgen Klopp, the eccentric former Borussia Dortmund manager, was in the dugout. He was on a losing battle to regain his spot after all those injuries with a boss that he already knew, but to do so with a new manager was a huge struggle. He came back from this injury and scored twice in an emphatic 6-1 win against Southampton, only to pull his hamstring in his next game. This saw him miss ten games over a busy Christmas and New Year schedule, and thus fall even further down the pecking order at Anfield.
Sturridge did play a large part towards the end of the season, contributing to their Europa League run. He scored in a tasty European derby against Manchester United at Anfield, setting up a glorious semi-final tie against Borussia Dortmund. Sturridge did not score in either leg of this tie, but it was an event for Jürgen Klopp, who had been at the helm during the revival of Dortmund. Daniel Sturridge started up front for Liverpool in the Europa League final, and he gave the Reds the lead in the first half. Philippe Coutinho fed a pass to Sturridge who stabbed the ball over the goalkeeper from the edge of the box. Once again, it was heartbreak for Sturridge in his career. He could do nothing but watch in horror as his side caved, blowing their lead to lose 3-1 to a rampant Sevilla side.
In recent years, Sturridge has simply lost his way. His hip injury has plagued him, never keeping him out for a long time, but forcing him to miss a couple of weeks here and there. As a result, he has struggled to nail down a first-team place. He is more often than not named on the bench, backing up Roberto Firmino in Klopp's one striker system. He still has goals in his locker, however, grabbing seven last season, including four goals in four starts in the 2016/17 League Cup. He showed his worth in an England jersey, revitalising his side in a poor game against Wales at Euro 2016. He didn't feature at all against Russia, but then came off the bench at halftime against the Welsh. He crossed in for Chris Smalling to set up the Jamie Vardy equaliser, then scored the winner two minutes into stoppage time to win. Sturridge earned starts against Slovakia and then Iceland in the last sixteen, but despite bringing an abundance of energy, was unable to score or contribute anything tangible to the games. In his defence, he is a centre-forward and was being played on the left and right wing in both starts, Roy Hodgson wasting his talent somewhat.
The career of Daniel Sturridge is a frustrating one, he has so much talent. He is fast, he is strong, he is tenacious and, above all, he is a natural born goal scorer. He is also, sadly, one of the most infamous injury prone players this generation has seen. He burst on to the scene as a youth player over ten years ago and has shown flashes of brilliance during his career. He is a Champions League winner, a league winner and an FA Cup two times winner, and yet all of these were as a bit part. He has been part of some great groups of players at Liverpool and played under two excellent coaches in Brendan Rodgers and Jürgen Klopp, but the trophies have alluded him in teams where he runs the show. He is still young, only turning 28 in September, and so there is a chance he could still win trophies and get his career back on track. His problem is, the older he gets, the longer he'll take to recover from those injuries. His days off a "big club" move are gone, Arsenal being perhaps the only club of that ilk who may take a punt on him. Scarily, it is looking like England might be his biggest chance of winning a trophy! He will need to get a lot more football under his belt before the season is out if he wants to go to Russia in 2018, but if he does then he certainly has the goal-scoring talent to contribute in the World Cup next summer. Trophies are not the be-all and end-all in football. With a guy like Daniel Sturridge, the simple fact is that he is a great professional, a great goal scorer and above all, a great man. No matter where his career takes him, one can only hope that he shakes off those niggling injuries and can nail down some regular football.

Thanks to the cooperation among Verona City Council, Veronafiere-ArtVerona, AMO Arena Museo Opera – Palazzo Forti, Atelier Hermann Nitsch, the Vienna Nitsch Foundation, the Museo Hermann Nitsch-Archivio Laboratorio per le Arti Contemporanee di Napoli and the support of Boxart di Verona, the Italian public can enjoy an extraordinary opportunity to examine in depth the dramatic core, the quality of staging and contextualization of Hermann Nitsch's o.m. theater (Theatre of Orgies and Mysteries) within the history of the theatre, so as to offer a more extensive and comprehensive view of the artist's work as a whole.
The focus of the exhibition curated by Hubert Klocker, director of the Friedrichshof Collection (Zurndorf/Vienna), focuses on the meaning of, and necessity for, direct experience gained through participation in a dramatic event, and at the same time the fact that the individual elements of the Viennese actionist's oeuvre - especially painting and drawing, but also music and literature - are subordinate to the element of drama and performance underlying Nitsch's poetry as a whole.

Naughty Boy teams up with Shake Shack for his own chicken burger
So this is an interesting collaboration - MOBO-award winning Naughty Boy has teamed up with Shake Shack to create his own burger. Burger development is a new string to Naughty Boy's bow - he's already a DJ, producer, musician and songwriter.
Available for just one month and in just one British Shake Shack - the Cambridge Circus one - The Naughty One is being used to push the launch of Shake Shack's new Shack Sounds. It's a programme for unsigned young British artists to help develop their talents with five acts eventually performing in a series of live shows in May alongside Naughty Boy himself.
Inspired by his childhood, The Naughty One is going to be a chicken burger featuring a crispy chicken breast topped with Asian slaw, a spicy yoghurt sauce made from mayonnaise, coriander, chilli, lime and pomegranate, served on a potato bun.
"Good food and good music goes hand in hand," Naughty Boy said. Adding that the burger "is actually topped with my Mum's secret recipe, raita-style sauce which is one of my favourite food memories."
More about The Naughty One at Shake Shack
Where is it? 1 Cambridge Circus, London WC2H 8PA
When is it available? 1-31 March 2018

Love is a trophy presented to each of us by God without winning any competition – maybe.
The word Love has attained an adulterated status much like the word God. Love has become entangled with emotional baggage. True love is effortless and nothing but the deep Self that shines through. Yes, effort is required to remove the darkness that covers it.
I guess one thing I always smile at is the bygone era perhaps…where 'love' made sense not nonsense!
Familiarity is indeed the opposite of the now, the unconditioned. In what ways do we reach the latter ?
I many a times wonder how these dating plus marriage sites mushroom…how does one fall in love with statistics?
somewhere smile at the era perhaps gone….where love crossed storms in the sea and touched the moon without conditions…perhaps conditions were there then too….but the gravity of emotions was finer….
aw! it is as complicated yet as soft as morning dew….
And what of growing together towards the light?
Love laughs at locksmiths. It knows no darkness nor light. Its a path from the soul that leads one to eternity.
begins to cast it's shadows….
so no life lives without love….

PANAMA CITY, Panama – The Federación Panameña de Fútbol confirmed Wednesday that Leonardo Pipino and Juan Carlos Cubilla will return as the head coaches of the under-20 and under-17 national teams, respectively.
Pipino led Panama to a berth in the 2015 FIFA U-20 World Cup, following a runner-up finish in the CONCACAF Under-20 Championship earlier that same year. The 38-year-old Argentinean was also in charge of the nation's under-23 team, which did not get past the group stage of the 2015 CONCACAF Men's Olympic Qualifying Championship.
The 44-year-old Cubilla, a former Panama international, was in charge of the Canaleros' 2015 CONCACAF Under-17 Championship campaign in Honduras. Although the side did not advance after compiling a 3W-0D-2L group-stage record, it did score a tournament-best 15 goals in that phase of the competition.

When it comes to attribution modeling on the Facebook platform, there's more than one way to skin a cat.
Last week, Adometry became the first pure play attribution vendor to get certified under Facebook's ad tracking requirements (AdExchanger story). But not all of its competitors see approval of their ad tags as an important step to integrating Facebook campaign measurement into the media mix.
Take Visual IQ. The pure play attribution vendor has its own ad tags but chooses to use others' certified ad server tags to track premium Facebook inventory.
It says its non-pixel based approach allows customers to leverage existing data investments and move forward with attribution – without the operational headaches associated with multiplying third party tags. Below, CEO Manu Mathew describes the Visual IQ approach in more detail.
"Visual IQ is not seeking certification as a Facebook ad tracking vendor – as we have been tracking Facebook ads for several years without the need for our clients to place an additional tag on their ads – as is the case with those providers who are currently obtaining certification.
Because of the data-agnostic, pixel-less tracking methodology we utilize at Visual IQ, our clients who are already using existing tools that track Facebook won't have to spend time creating, placing and trafficking yet another tag from another vendor. Why reinvent the wheel and double the work? And if someone drops the ball and forgets to tag a single ad with the new tag (which actually happens quite frequently in the media buying world), the entire data set could be compromised.
Visual IQ utilizes 100% of the data from any of our clients' existing technologies that already track their Facebook advertising efforts. As others spend crucial time and resources navigating the Facebook waters which have been already successfully solved by our clients' existing technology partners, we continue to solve the problems and challenges that marketers face in understanding how their cross channel media is performing and how best to optimize media budgets using attribution."


The doctor's ticket to success | City A.M.
FOR a business venture to get off the ground, it needs to fill a gap in the market. Robin Wells' latest venture mytrainticket.co.uk has found more of a gulf than a gap.
The serial entrepreneur/angel investor came across the business opportunity – a rail version of air travel ticket booking sites – 18 months ago. He was immediately charmed by its potential –?the market has high barriers to entry and few competitors: "This is a £6bn market that is forecast to grow at 10 per cent a year, this is the perfect opportunity. The rising cost of motoring and traffic congestion mean that more people will use trains," says Wells, who is sitting in a lounge in the rather imposing Institute of Directors building in Pall Mall.
After he became "disillusioned" with a career in the corporate IT world, he began to search for small businesses with real growth opportunities. Mytrainticket.co.uk, which was started by Assertis, a web design company, is his fourth investment. He led a small group of private investors to help with financing and management support to get the project off the ground. The website went live in April and expectations are that it will turn a profit in the first quarter of 2011.
"The rail industry has real potential to replicate the success of online sales of air tickets." And indeed, the growth potential does look good. Around 15 per cent of all rail tickets are purchased online, which compares with over 50 per cent in the air travel sector. So far the project has cost £2.5m, mostly on development costs and obtaining a rail retail licence. After a significant publicity drive, the site has already received over 1.2m visitors.
Wells is difficult to categorise – he is part growth capital partner and part entrepreneur. He likens himself to a "company doctor", with the skills to develop small businesses into medium-sized ones. For example, he worked with a software house specialising in healthcare IT, which grew from six staff members to more than 200 and later listed on Aim in 2005.
He is also a co-founder of Stage on Screen (www.stageonscreen.com), a company that produces and films live plays that feature on academic syllabi. He founded the company two years ago with a small group of investors, most of whom have children of school age. The most recent Stage on Screen productions were Doctor Faustus and Volpone and the company plans to film two to four plays a year. Stage on Screen was another gap in the market that Wells jumped at: "There is a constant stream of demand since the examination boards regularly rotate the same plays." So far, £1m has been invested in the venture.
Lives: Kent, with his wife and children. He also runs Mytrainticket.co.uk from the county.

This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is being issued by the NIH Adherence Network through the Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (OBSSR) with participation from multiple NIH Institutes and Centers. This FOA calls for research grant applications which address patient adherence to treatment and prevention regimens in healthcare to promote health outcomes. This FOA accepts applications that either propose or do not propose a clinical trial(s).
Applications under this FOA are encouraged, but not required, to apply approaches and tools developed under the NIH Common Fund's Science of Behavior Change (SOBC) Program. These include: use-inspired basic research on mechanisms of change at multiple levels of analysis; assays for self-regulation, interpersonal processes and stress that have evidence as malleable targets for behavior change (see https://osf.io/zp7b4) developed under the SOBC program; and an experimental medicine approach which requires a clear a priori specification of the intended mechanistic target(s) of an intervention, and methods that test the degree to which an experimental manipulation or intervention engages those targets. For more information about the SOBC program, please see: https://commonfund.nih.gov/behaviorchange.
Increased patient adherence to recommended treatment and prevention regimens is an area of the behavioral and social sciences that promises substantial improvements in public health as well as savings in healthcare costs. For these reasons, improving adherence has been identified by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Adherence Research Network as a top priority.
Poor adherence to healthcare regimens is common across many chronic illnesses and patient populations. This includes adherence to prescribed medications and other recommended prevention, screening, treatment, monitoring, and health behavior regimens. Research across many chronic illness areas has identified sub-optimal adherence to oral medications and even lower adherence to diet and exercise recommendations. Continued evidence of non-adherence in many chronic conditions and insufficient evidence for how to improve adherence highlights the need for transformative research in this area.
Adherence is increasingly understood as a multifaceted concept. First, adherence to a specific health care behavior (e.g., taking a medicine, deciding to follow a diet, or making dietary changes) can involve three dimensions: initiation (i.e., starting the regimen), implementation (i.e., executing the schedule), and persistence (i.e., length of time on regimen before discontinuation). Each dimension of adherence may have unique determinants, and each may require distinct behavioral and social interventions. Second, many recommended treatment and prevention regimens involve multiple health behaviors. For example, recommended treatment for Type 2 diabetes may include monitoring glucose, adjusting diet, increasing activity, and taking medicines to maintain health and quality of life. Third, many individuals experience multiple comorbid conditions which may require different and concurrent courses of therapy, or present unique cognitive, emotional, or social challenges that can interfere with adherence. Adherence may vary across different health behaviors, complex regimens, and comorbid conditions.
Adherence behavior is also dynamic with the potential to change over time. Some health care professionals and researchers may view adherence as a stable and dichotomous property of individuals; i.e., "there are adherent patients, and there are non-adherent patients." This misses how adherence in chronic conditions may vary in response to disease activity, treatment methods, and the course of psychosocial or illness comorbidities. The dynamic nature of adherence underscores the need to improve routine monitoring of individual's adherence to recommended healthcare regimens, and to re-examine or develop new interventions to support adherence over the course of care. Further, as more individuals live with long-term chronic conditions, adherence may be predicated on the complex interaction of the persons health needs and developmental factors.
Determinants of adherence and non-adherence span a broad ecologic spectrum. They may be influenced by the nature of the condition; the complexity of the regimen and concomitant treatments; individual factors such as sociodemographic characteristics, comorbidities, cognitive functioning, mental health status, health literacy, self-efficacy and motivation for self-management; aspects of the person-provider relationship; social and factors such as an individual's access to social support, relationships and gender dynamics, and culture; and successively larger structural influences, including factors related to health economics (medication cost, insurance coverage, access to transportation, and cost-sharing) and the characteristics of health care organizations and healthcare delivery approaches. These multilevel adherence determinants invite a range of interventions that target individuals, families, caregivers, health-care providers, communities, and/or healthcare system delivery methods. They also invite careful consideration and assessment of the mechanisms of action in adherence intervention research.
New developments and innovations provide fresh opportunities to advance adherence research with the potential for real impact. Advances in mobile health (mHealth) technologies and informatics provide opportunities to monitor recommended healthcare regimen adherence, to improve measurement precision, and to deliver individualized interventions that are timely, tailored, and interactive. Attention to patient-centered care and shared decision-making models that include the person, family, and caregiver as part of the care team further broadens targets for improving adherence. Differentiated care models suggest matching individuals to different forms of adherence support based on demonstrated need. Growing attention to health behavioral economic approaches suggest new ways to "nudge" behavior in helpful directions. Additionally, healthcare coverage models that are designed to incentivize the delivery of high-quality and cost-efficient care are becoming increasingly common.
Regardless of focus or approach, the next generation of adherence research will benefit from improved scientific rigor. Future studies should clearly define adherence, address intervention mechanisms of action, and compliment self-reported measures with objective assessment of behavior. A Cochrane review of randomized controlled trials of medication adherence interventions in 2014 found many trials were compromised by low statistical power and/or biases resulting from use of self-reported adherence measures when trial participants were not blinded to treatment allocation. The adherence intervention evidence base will therefore require improved rigor and reporting: well-powered trials with appropriate sample sizes that employ and describe objective measures, centralized randomization procedures, and blinded outcome assessors. Randomized trials of interventions can target enrollment to individuals with prior adherence problems to help avoid ceiling effects. Adherence research may also benefit from novel research designs, including sequential randomized designs.
Non-adherence to medical regimens exemplifies the challenges in initiating and sustaining healthful behavior change. Researchers are beginning to make progress in understanding some of the basic mechanisms that account for less-than-optimal initiation and maintenance of behavior change. Applications under this FOA are encouraged, but not required, to apply approaches and tools developed under the NIH Common Fund's Science of Behavior Change (SOBC) Program. These include: use-inspired basic research on mechanisms of change at multiple levels of analysis; assays for self-regulation, interpersonal processes and stress that have evidence as malleable targets for behavior change (see https://osf.io/zp7b4) developed under the SOBC program; and an experimental medicine approach which requires a clear a priori specification of the intended mechanistic target(s) of an intervention, and methods that test the degree to which an experimental manipulation or intervention engages those targets.
Adherence is pivotal to healthcare regimen effectiveness and can make important contributions to health outcomes. Research that pairs measures of adherence behaviors and social determinants of health with clinical outcomes will help advance the science. Research that demonstrates health benefits and cost-effectiveness of adherence interventions, and that reflects the priorities and considerations of real-world stakeholders (persons with the condition/illness; health care providers, care systems, etc.) can additionally promote intervention dissemination and implementation.
This FOA calls for research applications that address individual adherence to recommended treatment and prevention regimens to promote health, health outcomes, and quality of life. Many NIH Institutes, Centers and Offices have joined together to support this initiative. Applications should be relevant to both the general objectives of the FOA and to the specific research interests of at least one participating Institute or Center. Brief descriptions of the specific interests of the Institutes and Centers follow the cross-cutting list provided below.
Potential study topics and intervention approaches may include, but are not limited to:
Research to develop novel tools or modify existing approaches to monitor adherence and facilitate delivery of targeted interventions to improve adherence
Research testing innovative approaches for monitoring and maintaining individual or caregiver adherence to complex health care regimens
Research to target groups at high risk for non-adherence such as adolescents/young adults and individuals with cognitive impairment, complex illnesses and health regimens, mental health comorbidities, and/or substance abuse
Studies of adherence-promoting interventions that are delivered through technological tools, such as mobile health technologies and electronic health records, to target health care provider behaviors, patient behaviors, both, and/or provider-patient interactions and feedback
Research examining interventions designed to optimize adherence through caregivers, peers, or social support networks
Research to examine the role of shared decision making on adherence
Research testing the efficacy of interventions at the health care system level that target, for example, health care provider practices (i.e., decision tools, access to resources such as medication plans, electronic medical record practices) as facilitators of patient adherence
Research to address social and structural determinants of health contributing to racial and ethnic disparities in adherence and associated health outcomes
Interventions that test multi-level and multi-component interventions (e.g., at the individual, health care provider, and community level) to improve adherence behavior
Studies that identify competing behaviors, psychosocial concerns, and/or social issues that contribute to non-adherence and associated changes in health outcomes, to inform future interventions and science
Descriptions of the specific interests of the Institutes and Centers follow.
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) seeks multi-level research from across the translational science continuum aimed at improving adherence to treatment and prevention regimens to reduce cancer risk, improve treatment outcomes, and lower cancer-related morbidity, mortality, and disability. Additional information about priority areas of research are described by the NCI's Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences.
The National Institute on Aging (NIA) seeks research on interventions to promote adherence to medical and behavioral regimens aimed at promoting healthy aging in Stages I through IV of the translational intervention development pipeline, as defined by the NIH Stage Model. NIA applications under this FOA are expected to articulate their research aims using the NIH Stage Model framework, identifying the Stage(s) of research proposed. In addition, applications are encouraged to apply the experimental medicine approach, i.e. articulate or test a hypothesis to identify an intervention's principles/mechanism(s) of action, as described by SOBC. Areas of interest include those that leverage current understanding of psychology of aging or of behavioral and social contexts relevant to aging to promote adherence to exercise, healthful eating, prescribed medications, stress-reducing and/or positive affect inducing behaviors, and medical regimens. Of particular interest is the development of scalable principle-driven interventions that are highly relevant to the needs and capacities of individuals as they age and interventions that incorporate behavioral economic principles and/or technological innovations.
The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) is interested in supporting alcohol prevention research focused on incentives, barriers and disincentives to adherence to health promoting and harm reduction behaviors targeting multiple levels, including family-based, community-based, health care systems and other environmental-level policy-based interventions. NIAAA is also interested in alcohol treatment research focused on understanding the mechanisms that underlie adherence to engaging in and maintenance of behavior change within our empirically-supported alcohol behavioral treatments that target heavy and problematic alcohol use.
The National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Disease (NIAID) is interested in supporting programs that support the development of biomedical measures to improve adherence to ART, PrEP, and other HIV prevention interventions and strategies. NIAID is also interested in supporting basic and applied research in the behavioral and social sciences to inform the development of novel interventions that enable all HIV infected individuals to achieve durable viral suppression. With implementers, develop and pilot enhanced adherence interventions with demonstrated effectiveness.
The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) is interested in research on the development of optimal behavioral strategies to promote adherence to medications and substance use disorder (SUD) treatment. Applications are encouraged for studies that include, but are not limited to: improvements in drug abuse treatment adherence interventions for use in primary care; technologies to boost effects and increase efficiency of adherence interventions, and; interventions to promote adherence to HIV medications.
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) has interest in adherence research in the context of mental health as well as HIV/AIDS. NIMH is interested in research on adherence interventions that support the NIMH Strategic Plan for Research. All applications that propose clinical trials to test adherence strategies are encouraged to follow the NIMH's experimental therapeutics approach to intervention development and testing (see NIMH Clinical Trials FOAs). Examples of relevant research projects include but are not limited to the following: Adherence interventions capitalizing on innovations in technology, consistent with the NAMHC workgroup on technology report, Opportunities and Challenges of Developing Information Technologies on Behavioral and Social Science Clinical Research; applications that use existing patient-level data, such as electronic medical records and prescription refill data, to support adherence; adherence approaches to reduce empirically documented disparities in care and outcomes for racial and ethnic minorities and other underserved groups; adherence interventions that support shared decision making and patient engagement; adherence strategies that fit seamlessly into existing clinical practice; and strategies to support use of HIV/AIDS antiretroviral treatment and pre-exposure prophylaxis.
The National Institute on Nursing Research (NINR) is seeking research on patient-focused adherence strategies to engage individuals, caregivers and families and communities as active participants in self-management and wellness to improve quality of life while living with an acute or chronic condition or multiple conditions.
The National Institute of Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD) is interested in supporting research and interventions considering determinants from more than one domain or level of influence (see NIMHD Research Framework). Intervention design should be based on theories from minority health and health disparities science. Research must focus on one or more minority or health disparity population (African Americans/Blacks, Hispanics/Latinos, American Indians/Alaska Natives, Asians, Native Hawaiians and Other Pacific Islanders, socioeconomically disadvantaged populations, underserved rural populations, and sexual and gender minority populations). Applications may include but are not limited to multi-disciplinary etiologic and intervention research projects that advance the understanding of the mechanisms, pathways, and processes operating within the domain of medication management, including but not limited to research on the behavioral, social, and structural determinants of medication adherence, medication safety, shared decision making, integrated medical team care, and resilience within home and community settings. Research may propose using available secondary data, health system data and/or collection of primary data.
The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) is interested in research studying mind-body approaches to improve adherence to treatment and prevention regimens to promote health outcomes, as well as research to improve adherence to mind-body treatment or health promotion approaches. Mind-body approaches include various meditation approaches (e.g., mindfulness), hypnosis or guided imagery, meditative movement approaches (e.g., yoga, tai chi, qi-gong), body-based approaches (e.g., spinal manipulation, massage, mobilization, acupuncture), a combination of these approaches (e.g., meditation and yoga, such as in mindfulness-based stress reduction MBSR), or complex interventions including music and art therapy. NCCIH will not fund multi-site efficacy or effectiveness research through this FOA (please see NCCIH Clinical Trial Funding Opportunities instead). Investigators are strongly encouraged to discuss their plans with NCCIH program staff prior to submitting their application.

Rick Joyner Still Has No Idea What He Is Talking About
By Kyle Mantyla | July 26, 2016 10:38 am
Earlier this month, we posted a clip of Rick Joyner praising Donald Trump for pledging to repeal the Johnson Amendment, a provision in the tax code that has long restricted the ability of nonprofit organizations, including churches, to engage in explicitly political activities and endorse or oppose candidates for office.
Joyner claimed that the provision was inserted into the tax code by then-Sen. Lyndon Johnson specifically to "muzzle the church" because he was angry that Christian leaders had criticized him during his run for office. As we pointed out last time, this is entirely untrue:
That alternate version of history must come as a surprise to groups like the Alliance Defending Freedom, which launched its "Pulpit Freedom Sunday" initiative back in 2008 to challenge the Johnson Amendment on the grounds that it was never intended to apply to churches.
As the ADF explained in this video it made back in 2012, Johnson was upset that two wealthy businessmen had used nonprofit organizations they had created to attack him when he ran for re-election in 1954 on the grounds that he was too soft on communism. In response, Johnson inserted an amendment into a bill overhauling the tax code that restricted the ability of nonprofit organizations to engage in overtly political activities.
According to the ADF, and contrary to Joyner's claim, "Johnson never had churches in mind" when he added this amendment.
But just because this claim is false, that's obviously not going to stop Joyner from repeating it, which he did on yesterday's "Prophetic Perspectives on Current Events" program.
Johnson inserted this provision "specifically to muzzle churches, muzzle Christian leaders because he had personally been attacked by them so much in his campaigns," Joyner falsely claimed. "He came up with this scheme and he was very open about it."

Natural gas was cheaper than coal from February to May, making it the preferred fuel source for many utilities. If that changes, utilities will likely burn more coal.
NEW YORK — As the temperature keeps rising, so does the price of natural gas.
Natural gas futures in New York have surged 67 percent since hitting a 10-year low this spring. Power plants are using more of the fuel for electricity generation as homes and businesses crank up the air conditioning. And natural gas companies are finally cutting production after a years-long boom caused a glut that sank prices.
The price jumped another 6.1 percent to $3.199 per 1,000 cubic feet at midday Monday as forecasters predicted the Midwest would see unseasonably warm weather next month.
Still, natural gas is about 35 percent cheaper than at this time last year. And the recent jump in prices probably won't impact utility bills.
Electricity rates are shielded from price spikes in a couple of ways: Utilities lock in gas prices for years at a time to protect themselves from quick shifts in price. And in many states, rates are set by regulators every year or two.
The rise in natural gas has other impacts, however.
As it gets more expensive, utilities will likely burn more coal, independent petroleum analyst Stephen Schork said. Schork noted that natural gas was cheaper than coal from February to May, making it the preferred fuel source for many utilities.
"This is no longer the case," Schork said. Coal is now cheaper than natural gas.
Natural gas prices have been climbing as temperatures rise. Many utilities burn natural gas to generate electricity, and electricity demand jumps during a heat wave as power customers run their air conditioners more often.
Meanwhile, natural gas producers in the U.S. have been shutting down natural gas drilling operations as they focus on more profitable oil wells. The number of natural gas rigs has been declining every month since October, and production has been falling this year.
In other futures trading, U.S. crude prices fell by 50 cents to $89.63 per barrel in New York. Brent crude, which sets the price for imported oil, lost 64 cents to $105.83 per barrel in London. Heating oil lost nearly a penny to $2.8808 per gallon while wholesale gasoline added 2.71 cents to $2.9149 per gallon.
Retail gasoline prices were flat over the weekend at $3.486 per gallon, according to auto club AAA, Wright Express and Oil Price Information Service. A gallon of regular unleaded is about 45 cents cheaper than its peak price in April. It's also 22.4 cents cheaper than it was a year ago.

Tanks Now Have F1-Inspired Suspensions, Because Awesome
BAE Systems has adopted banned Formula One suspension technology to make its tanks go faster.
Tanks, by design, are meant to travel over rough terrain. They're built with phenomenal suspensions, to ensure they can keep moving over and through any obstacle in combat. But though the machines can keep going when the going gets tough, anything you can do to smooth the ride is an improvement.
That's why British defense contractor BAE Systems, creator of the CV90 family of tanks, has created a new active damping suspension system to dramatically improve the ride of tracked vehicles moving over rough terrain. Active suspension allows vehicles to manage the ride height and stiffness of the suspension while driving, either by driver activation or automatically controlled via a computer. In this case, the extra flexibility will allow the CV90 to increase its top speed to over 40 mph, a 40 percent increase.
It's inspired by a technology developed for Formula One, designed to absorb bumps in the road. In racing, keeping as much of the rubber as possible on the tarmac lets cars accelerate and brake faster, and helps neutralize imperfections in the road surface. Active suspensions were banned from the sport in 1994, along with technological "driver aids" like traction control and anti-lock brakes, to put emphasis on the driver rather than the car. It has since found a home in assorted high-end sports cars, and now it's taken on a military role.
Though the theory is the same, the active damping in the CV90 tank is functionally very different from that in F1, largely because massive tracked vehicles and ultra-light race cars have very different suspension requirements.
BAE is keeping quiet on how, exactly, its tech works, but says the system measures body movement and calculates how each corner of the vehicle is accelerating (that is, leaving the ground). Once the movement exceeds predetermined thresholds, the system starts stiffening the suspension.
When the vehicle comes back down, the stiffened dampers absorb the shock much better than a passive system would. It can handle three times the rigid body movement of the original system, with impacts from bumps both small and large reduced in real time. It also allows for the use of anti-lock brakes.
BAE Systems CV90 is used by a wide variety of armies, including those of Sweden, Finland and Norway.
More than keeping those inside from bouncing around, this suspension holds the vehicle steady when it's firing a heavy gun or mortar system. "That means you can go faster over rough terrain and still keep track on the target," says Dan Lindell, platform manager for combat vehicles at BAE Systems.. "It is a lot easier for the gunner to find and identify targets in a calm system."
If the system fails, Lindell says the torsion bars would still be there to hold the weight of the vehicle. "You'd still have mobility, although you wouldn't be able to go as fast on rough terrain." That's important for a vehicle made to take men and women into combat.
The active damping system can be retrofitted to current CV90 systems with just a few weeks of downtime, likely during routine maintenance, says Lindell. If you want to ride in a tank without the risk of bumping your head, you'll have to enlist in the armies of Sweden, Norway, Finland, Switzerland, or one of several other countries that use this tank.
