Disturbed breathing during sleep may increase stroke risk in people with spinal cord injury
A new study led by a University of Calgary researcher at the Cumming School of Medicine (CSM) finds that fatigue and sleep may need more attention in order to prevent issues like stroke after spinal cord injury.
"People with spinal cord injury have alarming rates of stroke, and we wanted to understand why," says study lead Dr. Aaron Phillips, PhD, assistant professor, in the Department of Physiology & Pharmacology, and member of the CSM's Libin Cardiovascular Institute of Alberta and the Hotchkiss Brain Institute.
Working with colleagues in Canada, Serbia, and Croatia, the team determined that fatigue and sleep issues were prevalent in people with spinal cord injury and those sleep-related breathing problems were associated with reduced brain health in this population.
Using a data-set of more than 60,000 people, the researchers first revealed that individuals with spinal cord injury experience fatigue more than people without spinal cord injury. "The risk of fatigue is nine times greater in individuals with spinal cord injury compared to those without," says Phillips. "Prior to these results, I don't really think we realized what a huge problem sleep and sleepiness are for people with spinal cord injury."
The researchers also found the incidence of clinically defined sleep apnea was roughly four times greater for individuals with spinal cord injury compared to those without, and then went on to show that fatigue and trouble sleeping are related to the level and severity of the spinal cord injury.
The researchers next conducted sleep and in-depth physiological studies to test whether there were any scientifically measurable differences to sleep after spinal cord injury. The full-night polysomnography recorded brain waves, the oxygen level in participants' blood, as well as their heart rate and breathing.
People with spinal cord injury were suffering from very disturbed breathing during sleep that was actually preventing them from carrying oxygen to vital organs like their brain. It's not just about a good night's sleep. Our study found sleep related disorders are negatively associated with brain health for individuals with spinal cord injury.
Dr. Jordan Squair, PhD, post-doctoral scholar in the Phillips lab and first author on the study
The danger of sleep disorders
The results of neuroimaging tests provided crucial findings for researchers. They found that sleep-related breathing problems in people with spinal cord injury were associated with reduced health of brain blood vessels. This is important as people with spinal cord injury are three to four times more likely to experience a stroke than uninjured individuals.
Our results make a case for health-care professionals to incorporate assessments of fatigue and sleep-related breathing examinations into routine care for people with spinal cord injury. In addition, the use of a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) device may provide wide-ranging benefits for this group of people, including the reduction of stroke risk.

The findings are published in Neurology.

STLTH's mission is to offer an alternative to traditional tobacco cigarettes by providing a smokeless product that is practical and satisfying to adult smokers.
The company was started by a group of entrepreneurs based out of Waterloo, Ontario Canada and Los Angeles, California, USA. All of which were ex-smokers who used vaping products as an alternative to traditional cigarettes. The consensus experience between them was that traditional vaping systems were not very practical for day to day life and for the mainstream market to adopt vapour as a real alternative, the technology would need to be made user-friendly.
With that mission in mind, they created STLTH a closed-loop system that was designed for the masses. The objective was simple, to provide an affordable closed system to give adult smokers a viable alternative to traditional tobacco.
Our founders have over 20 years of cumulative experience in the vaporizer space. We are committed to satisfying our customers with a simple product that is effective and affordable. We also offer a 30-day money-back guarantee and a 1-year limited warranty on all our battery products. We are committed to making our shopping experience seamless and user-friendly.

I would raise transport fares as Mayor, says Shaun Bailey, but Brexit is Boris Johnson's business
5th September 2019 8th September 2019
The Conservative mayoral candidate has been setting out his views on the capital's big issues to an audience of business people
The Conservative candidate for London Mayor has said he will increase Transport for London public transport fares if elected next May, claiming that Sadiq Khan's four-year fares freeze has prevented investment in new transport capacity.
Speaking to members of the London Chamber of Commerce & Industry at the Tower Bridge Hilton this morning, Shaun Bailey described a fares hike as, in any case, "I think, a done deal" as it is already "pencilled in" to TfL's assumptions about its future finances for after the election.
However, Bailey said he would retain the Hopper fare introduced by Mayor Khan, which enables people to make an unlimited number of journeys by bus or tram within a one hour period for the price of a single fare.
Bailey characterised Khan's freeze as "bogus", saying the Mayor had given the misleading impression during the 2016 mayoral election campaign that all public transport fares would be frozen when in reality his powers extend only to services run by TfL. Even so, he claimed lack of progress towards extending Tramlink services to Sutton, extending the Bakerloo Line and other TfL projects can be attributed to the freeze.
TfL's current business plan, covering the period from 2019 to 2024, assumes the freeze is maintained until 2020, but that fares "could rise by around RPI [the retail price index inflation measure] plus one per cent to support vital investment in public transport" from January 2021. (on page 50, image below). The final decision on levels of fares rests annually with whoever is Mayor.
Asked by On London if he considered former Mayor Boris Johnson's approach to delivering Brexit is helping his campaign, given that London voted by a margin of 60-40 to Remain in the European Union, Bailey said that "Boris's approach to Brexit is Boris's business" and stressed the importance of being able as a politician to "represent people who do not believe what you believe".
Bailey characterised mayoral responsibilities as "practical stuff – this is delivery, delivery, delivery". During his opening address he acknowledged that "Brexit is important" and re-stated his preference for the UK leaving the EU with a deal, but made clear his view that "the Mayor of London can do nothing about Brexit", pointing out that those making decisions about it "sit in Westminster".
He criticised Mayor Khan for talking about Brexit too much instead of concentrating on the things he can directly affect, saying he is "focussed on what London needs" citing challenges that "pre-date Brexit and will exist long after Brexit." Bailey listed the main jobs of a London Mayor as delivering homes, making London safe, cleaning up the environment, sorting out transport and making London "the best place to start and grow a business and raise a family".
Naming crime as his first priority, he said that every part of London he has visited in his campaign "talks about crime" and the need for someone to deal with it. "A London where people are stabbed in broad daylight is bad for Londoners and ultimately bad for business. From me you won't get excuses as to why I'm not doing the job properly," he said, accusing Khan of dodging his responsibilities.
On housing, he defined the task as "delivering appropriate housing in appropriate numbers, for Londoners" and characterised the impact on employees of high rents and house purchase prices as "a major attack on our competitiveness in London" which his "Housing for London" approach to using mayoral powers and resources would address.
Bailey said the Ultra Low Emission Zone, introduced by Khan a year sooner than Mayor Johnson, he who devised it, had intended to do, has been "implemented badly", and that the proposed extension of the zone beyond its current congestion charge zone boundaries to the North and South Circular roads "will mean devastation for small businesses" and not even deliver an improvement in air quality.
"It will make the North Circular even dirtier than it is now" and "cut many a community in half," Bailey maintained. This would be because "many of the poorest people will have to pay to drive across the North Circular go to school or go to hospital." He proposed that the resources required should instead be spent "to green, to electrify, our entire bus fleet". He said this would be "the equivalent of taking a million cars off the road" in terms of polluting emissions.
Bailey said the biggest difference between himself and other mayoral hopefuls is "That I believe in wealth creation" and that this was the key to getting young people in particular into jobs and giving them opportunity. He described the careers advice many young people receive as "very poor" and said the apprenticeship levy raised in London should be kept in the city, rather than redistributed elsewhere. "If you have a job, the prospect of a job, the prospect of a career, being dragged into a local gang is that much further away from you. Your business activity, is part of my social issue."
Responding to Bailey's comments on raising fares, a spokesperson of Sadiq Khan did not rule out a post-election fares increase but said: "Londoners can trust Sadiq on fares as he's kept his promise to freeze them for four years, but you will have to wait and see the manifesto, which will be published next year".

Philip Virgo says:
5th September 2019 at 8:54 pm
I think the most important comment Sean Bailey made was that Mayor should focus on that over which he has control and not grandstand on other matters. It is that on which we should measure the current Mayor. It is that on which we should judge the pledges made in the campaign and our votes. I have voted differently in local elections to the way in which I vote on national elections. Not a lot, but sometimes.I have also voted for candidates from different parties. Again, not a lot, but sometimes.

In November last year, we reported that an uber Golf, dubbed the R 400, was mooted for production. Now, as understood by CAR UK, the Volkswagen Golf R420 has been given the official production thumbs up. The good news was confirmed by none other than Volkswagen's powertrain honcho, Dr. Heinz-Jakob Neusser.
First, a bit of a recap for those not too familiar with what's going on. Back in April 2014, Volkswagen revealed the Golf R 400 Concept which (surprise, surprise) consisted mainly of parts sourced from production vehicles, albeit with a dash of racing technology. Still, the overall product appeared as if it was ready for production, fuelling production rumours further.
So why the slight name change? According to Volkswagen, the Golf R420 will be the first production car to feature the 2.0 litre turbocharged engine from the Audi TT quattro sport concept. While exact power figures remain a mystery, the public can expect the R420 to possess more than 400 hp.

Allotment wheelbarrows are an essential piece of equipment. They are worked hard on an allotment, carrying heavy loads over rough ground.
Allotment sheds are sometimes too full, so allotment wheelbarrows also need to be strong enough to survive all four seasons outside from freezing winter to baking summer.
If that is not enough, there is the extra consideration of theft. If allotment wheelbarrows are left outside, it is best that they do not look too pristine and re-saleable. A similar dilemna to bicycles!
Choose a wheelbarrow to cope with whatever you are likely to use it for, I have listed things to consider below. The biggest and strongest wheelbarrows start at around £50, and some are over £100.
This can be a good option if you are not buying a wheelbarrow for strength (ie building work). If you need a barrow occasionally simply to move weeds around your garden, help you plant, tidy up lawn trimmings etc., then you may not need a premium barrow, especially if you are able to store your wheelbarrow in a shed where it will be protected from the weather (this will help slow down your wheelbarrow rusting through). In this situation the best wheelbarrows are no nonsense sturdy models at a low price.
If you use a wheelbarrow regularly you know what the frustrations can be. The squeak every time you take a step, regular punctures, handles that fall off, instability when loading, and frames rusting through. The best wheelbarrows for you will be ones that are well designed and strongly built.
Not all wheelbarrows are built for heavy loads. The best wheelbarrows for this type of use will have very strong trays and steel frames. The best wheelbarrows will tell you how much weight they can carry in addition to their tray size in litres.
For my allotmenting I am an advocate of a solid, punctureless wheel, as I became very frustrated with punctures, as well as the need to keep pumping up my wheelbarrow tyres (see this article on puncture proof wheelbarrow tyres). These are an additional expense even on the best wheelbarrows. Pneumatic tyres are standard fit and they are good for heavy loads. The best wheelbarrows will have deep tread and durable tyres, including an inner tube that can either be replaced or mended if a puncture happens.
This is important as it is frustrating to be in a middle of a job, like weeding, and then have to stop to empty the wheelbarrow. A standard size is 90 litres, although some go up to around 150 litres and it is also possible to buy pull along carts that can hold much more.
I do not know many allotmenters that clean the tray of their wheelbarrow every time they use it. Metal rusts. Even wheelbarrows with galvanised coatings are prone to losing their protective coat and rusting. My suggestion is to consider wheelbarrows that have a strong plastic or polypropylene tray – perhaps in a horrible colour to make it less attractive to potential thieves!
Wheelbarrows for carrying heavy loads can hold approximately 150KG.
Wheelbarrows can rust. The tray of the wheelbarrow is particularly vulnerable, especially if you use garden compost or manure as the acids can eat through the metal. Some of the best barrows are now made from polypropylene for this reason. The supports of a wheelbarrow rest upon the ground, where they get wet, and these can also rust. Some wheelbarrows add extra protection called 'skids' to stop this happening.
Some wheelbarrows have a neat trick of being able to stand on their 'nose'. There are even fabric wheelbarrows that are foldable. If for reasons of space you need to store your wheelbarrow outside, either prop it up or turn it upside down to avoid rainwater pooling in the barrow.

A Social Network Analysis and Qualitative Assessment of Partnerships for Million Hearts®

How are Million Hearts partners connected, and what activities are they engaged in to achieve cardiovascular disease prevention goals?
What is working with the Million Hearts approach?
How do Million Hearts partners interact to work toward achieving cardiovascular disease prevention goals?
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services have implemented Million Hearts (MH), an unprecedented initiative to coordinate efforts across the United States to promote cardiovascular health. In work conducted by RAND Corporation and the University of Colorado at Denver, researchers sought to develop information and a data-informed evidence base regarding the successes and challenges of MH. To accomplish these aims, researchers used a mixed-methods approach that involved an environmental scan, key informant interviews, and a social network analysis to assess the current state of MH and to understand how this initiative might grow and strengthen the goal of decreasing cardiovascular disease (CVD). Based on their analysis, researchers conclude that the MH network has been successful in engaging a diverse set of public and private partners to collaborate together to address CVD issues and become an effective information-sharing network. Further, MH partners placed high levels of trust and value in one another. They also indicated that participation in the network was beneficial to their organizations. It appears that keeping the network intact, as is, can have some tangible benefits without a lot of additional resources or change. However, this research did identify barriers that participants in MH experienced in implementing MH activities or building effective relationships, including a lack of direct funding, difficulties with bringing partners to the table, a lack of experience among partners, and different perspectives on CVD prevention among partners.
The Bulk of the Million Hearts Partnerships and Activities Identified Occurred at the Local Level and Often Do Not Have a Direct Association with Organizations Involved in the Core National Million Hearts Partnership.
The national partnership is developing resources (information, tools, branding, etc.) that may be used to support the work of these local initiatives.
This indicates that the goal of bringing a group of diverse stakeholders together to address issues of cardiovascular disease has been achieved at the national level.
A Large Majority of Partners Believe That Million Hearts Played at Least a Fairly Substantial Role in Their Organizations' Cardiovascular Disease Prevention Work.
About half of the social network analysis participants said that their partnerships with other organizations were strengthened by it, which further helped them achieve their goals.
Participants also identified raising awareness of the ABCS (aspirin when appropriate, blood pressure control, cholesterol management, and smoking cessation), sharing resources among stakeholders, developing new programs, and communicating between sectors and agencies as their most important outcomes.
The Million Hearts Network Effectively Enables a Diverse, Cross-Sector Group of Federal and Private-Sector Partners to Share Information About Issues Related to Cardiovascular Health.
Participation in the network requires only minimal resources for partners; however, the return on trust and value among members is high.
These results demonstrate that the network is meeting its current goals and intentions to create an information-sharing platform.
Suggestions for Consideration
Consider maintaining current programming and leveraging existing activity and resources. Leadership may also want to explore what activities are occurring among partners and use them as examples of ways that other members might interact. Specifically, leadership may want to develop a list of best practices for working collaboratively to achieve Million Hearts goals.
Alternatively, current activity could be maintained, but Million Hearts could focus on strengthening current levels of commitment and engagement among members, such as by constructing forums to share success stories and tips for better prevention efforts.
Another strategy would be to reevaluate current activities, focusing on some activities suggested by partners. For example, several respondents said they would like to see Million Hearts pay closer attention to measuring its impact and the impact of its partner organizations. Leadership may also want to consider how to leverage underutilized resources, skills, and expertise to contribute to network activities.
Consider reviewing Million Hearts' purpose and clarifying goals, revising member expectations, or changing governance.
Consider developing diversified funding strategies to support Million Hearts work. The organization could provide small, one-time funding opportunities or support the development of tools or information that partners can use in their work.
Million Hearts could also adopt other strategies for sustainability suggested by partners, such as providing additional support from leadership to partners, developing easier platforms for national reporting, creating efforts toward better alignment of payment mechanisms, providing more focus on population and clinical interventions, and building partnerships with organizations dedicated to specific populations.

To the extent practical and as required by law, the district will work with homeless students and their families to provide stability in school attendance and other services. Special attention will be given to ensuring the enrollment and attendance of homeless students not currently attending school. Homeless students will be provided district services for which they are eligible, including Head Start and comparable pre-school programs, Title I, similar state programs, special education, bilingual education, vocational and technical education programs, gifted and talented programs, and school nutrition programs.
8. Are migratory children living in conditions described in previous examples.
To the extent feasible, homeless students will continue to be enrolled in their school of origin while they remain homeless or until the end of the academic year in which they obtain permanent housing. Instead of remaining in the school of origin, parents or guardians of homeless students may request enrollment in the school in which attendance area the student is actually living, or other school district.
If there is an enrollment dispute, the student shall be immediately enrolled in the school in which enrollment is sought, pending resolution of the dispute. The parent or guardian shall be informed of the district's decision and their appeal rights in writing. Unaccompanied youth will also be enrolled pending resolution of the dispute.
Once the enrollment decision is made, the school shall immediately enroll the student, pursuant to district policies. If the student does not have immediate access to the immunization records, the student shall be admitted under a personal exemption. Students and families should be encouraged to obtain current immunization records or immunizations as soon as possible, and the district liaison is directed to assist. Records from student's previous school shall be requested from the previous school pursuant to the district policies. Emergency contact information is required at the time of enrollment consistent with district policies.
Homeless students are entitled to transportation to their school of origin or the school where they are to be enrolled. If the school of origin is in a different district, or a homeless student is living in another district but will attend his or her school of origin in this district, the districts will make reasonable efforts to coordinate the transportation services necessary for the student.
The district's liaison for homeless students and their families shall coordinate with local social services agencies that provide services to homeless children and youths and their families; other school districts on issues of transportation and records transfers; and state and local housing agencies responsible for comprehensive housing affordability strategies. The district's liaison will also review and recommend to the district policies that may act as barriers to the enrollment of homeless students.

Having to spend an hour to answer the same questions as last year was EXTREMELY frustrating. It raised my blood pressure and created more problems for me. That information CAN be brought into the form and the questions formed to ask if it is still the same. Make changes etc. This would keep me from returning!!!!
My experience was great and I would recommend them to anyone!
No excessive wait time. Very professional and nice.
I'm so glad that the receptionist paid attention to me after I told her I was having shortness of breath due to asthma. She was going to have me wait for 30 minutes. I left pretty relieved after taking the nebulizer. Two hours later I still feel achy, chills , coughing and asthma.
You can now make appointment so I made an appointment at 8:30 AM I was only there 15 minutes saw the doctor everything went great!
Medical Assistants and Nurse Practitioner were great! They got me in fast and helped me with my issue.


Health reform spends more in states with more uninsured residents. And red states have higher rates of uninsurance than blue ones. In 2013, of the 25 states with the highest rates of nonelderly uninsured, 18 of them had voted for Mitt Romney in the 2012 election.
So all else equal, a bill that spends its money covering the uninsured is going to spend more money in red states than blue ones. But all else isn't equal. The way Obamacare pays for itself also favors red states.
One of Obamacare's major pay-fors is a 3.8 percent tax on investment income earned by richer taxpayers. This hits blue states harder than red states because blue states are, well, richer. Of the 25 states with the highest median income, 19 voted for Obama in 2012.
Another way Obamacare funds itself is through its tax on "Cadillac" health-care plans, which begins in 2018. The tax is really just a levy on very generous employer-provided plans — which are more common in blue states, with their history of unionization, than red ones. That means the Cadillac tax will hit harder in blue states than red ones.
But here's what's even weirder: Republicans have been working really hard to reverse that setup so that they pay more to get less.
When the Supreme Court made the law's Medicaid expansion optional in 2012, it was GOP-controlled states that opted out. This didn't save them any money– the federal government would have paid the entire cost of expansion until 2016, and those other taxes didn't go away–all it did was leave millions uninsured in their own states. And if the Supreme Court rules in this latest case that the only states who build their own health exchanges can get subsidies, it will again be residents of red states getting screwed.
A pair of maps from The New York Times, using survey data from the nonprofit group Enroll America, clearly illustrates how Republican states are shooting themselves in the foot.
The ACA had the most impact in poorer states that did expand Medicaid– like West Virginia, Kentucky, Arkansas, and New Mexico, for example. But some of the biggest coverage gains were also in states like Texas, Idaho, Oklahoma, and parts of the south– Republicans in these states fought Obamacare tooth and nail, yet they had counties where the number of people without insurance was cut nearly in half thanks to the new law.
If the Supreme Court rules that subsidies can only be provided in states that run their own exchanges, it's the coverage gains in these red states that will be reversed. Without subsidies, Obamacare enrollees will see their premiums jump by 256% on average. For states that want to participate in Obamacare, this is fixable– they can create their own exchanges (while still using healthcare.gov to handle all the technical stuff) and keep the subsidies.
But many red states have no intention of creating their own exchanges, at least in the short term– heck, Alabama, Georgia, Indiana, Nebraska, Oklahoma, South Carolina even filed an amicus brief saying that they decided not to create their own exchanges specifically because subsidies would not be available on the federal exchange (this is likely a lie, but the claim shows they have no intention of taking steps to keep the subsidies). Yet, just as with their decision to opt out of the Medicaid expansion, they'll still be paying the ACA's taxes.
The GOP is taking its own voters -— along with million of poorer people who live in Republican states — hostage. […] Democrats might want to deal on Obamacare because they want, as a moral matter, to cover poorer people in red states. But on a practical level, the post-King status quo is a much bigger disaster for Republican states than Democratic ones.
Great piece. It really is incredible the way Republicans will "cut off their noses to spite their face". But there is an explanation you didn't consider. Well off Republicans in the red states really want to keep the poor downtrodden because, well, those aren't the right kind of people. Unfortunately, this really does account for their actions logically, if cynically. On the other hand, most people will just interpret this as another way for them to hammer the ACA.
Thanks, John! You're right, that was an issue with the Medicaid expansion– red states get more and pay less than blue states overall, but it's really Democratic constituencies that benefit the most.
This latest case is different though, in that it would be a disaster for everyone who gets coverage through the individual market in red states. The subsidies provide a direct benefit to poor and middle class families on the exchanges, but they also help keep premiums down by bringing more young, healthy people into the marketplace– without them, premiums would increase (probably by a lot), even for those whose income is too high to qualify for subsidies.
Next post: The latest Supreme Court Obamacare case hinges on Roberts and Kennedy– here's what they'll be thinking about.

LA shooting comes after near-record year of mass murder
A stunning Saturday night mass shooting outside Los Angeles marked the nation's fifth mass killing in the young new year — and was the deadliest since the Uvalde, Texas, elementary school massacre in May 2022.
An unidentified man opened fire at a ballroom dance studio in the Asian-American enclave of Monterey Park following the first night of Lunar New Year celebrations in the San Gabriel Valley city of about 60,000.
Ten people were killed and at least 10 others were injured in the carnage, officials said. It was not immediately clear if the slaughter was random, targeted or motivated by hate.
The calamity came on the heels of one of the worst years ever for US mass killings. Forty-two such attacks — defined as an event where four people are murdered, excluding the killer — were recorded in 2022, according to a The Associated Press/USA Today database.
Last year marked the country's second highest mass killing death toll, with 210, since the start of record-keeping in 2006, and saw the third-highest number of such attacks — 42 — after 2017 and 2019.
Although public mass killings with indiscriminate victims — like the 19 young students and two children slaughtered by a deranged teenager at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde — the vast majority of mass murders are carried out in private by family members or acquaintances of the victims, the data showed.
An unidentified man opened fire at a ballroom dance studio in the Asian-American enclave of Monterey Park.
"A guy who kills his wife and children and sometimes kills himself is the most common type of mass killing," said James Alan Fox, a professor of criminology, law and public policy at Northeastern University in Boston who overseas the database.
Of more than 650 mass murders studied, nearly 600 were committed by men and the vast majority were carried out with guns, according to the report.
Random mass shootings were most likely committed by younger men, while middleage men were more likely to be behind the trigger in domestic massacres, according to the database.

The approximately 2,800 victims of such casualties since 2006 were slightly more likely to be male than female, and mass shootings with high death tolls often took place outside of large cities.
White people were more than twice as likely than those of any other race to be victimized by a mass shooting, and also more likely to carry out the heinous crimes, the study showed.
Some 225 white suspects had been identified as perpetrators of mass killings compared with 216 black suspects and 83 Hispanic suspects.

The database does not include killings linked to drug dealers, gang members or other criminal-on-criminal violence.
A study in the medical trade journal Psychiatric Times found the typical shooter profile was an aggrieved, emotionally unstable isolated man.
"The ones who are more apt to commit mass murder are the ones who are paranoid, and who are suspicious and mistrusting and think that everyone is against them," said Michael Stone, a forensic psychiatrist at Columbia University.
It was not immediately clear if the Monterey Park shooting was random, targeted or motivated by hate.

"It's somebody who has fewer capacities at his disposal for adjusting to the crisis of losing the job or the girlfriend and will feel that life is over."
The Uvalde shooting and a Buffalo, NY, "racially motivated" shooting at a supermarket in a black neighborhood that killed ten people weeks earlier, prompted Albany lawmakers to ban guns in many public places, including public transportation, bars, churches and Times Square.
A month after the duel tragedies, President Biden signed the first major national gun safety bill in decades. The bill enhanced background checks on the youngest gun buyers, provided millions for mental health services and gave state's incentive to pass red flag laws.
A proposal to ban assault weapons stalled in the House before Republicans took control of the chamber earlier this month.
There is no universal consensus on what constitutes a mass shooting, but at least 600 of them were recorded in the US last year, according to the Gun Violence Archive.
Some 44,000 Americans died of gun violence in 2022, more than half of them from suicide.

Hidden asbestos threat for nurses and teachers
Kaya Burgess
Monday November 25 2019, 12.01am, The Times
Teachers are five times more likely to develop mesothelioma, a cancer that is often caused by asbestos exposure
More than six million tonnes of asbestos remains in 1.5 million hospitals, schools, homes and other buildings and has been tolerated for too long, a report says and calls for a "phased removal".
A think tank has said that a register must be compiled of all locations where asbestos still exists and has called for the UK to impose stricter limits on how much people can inhale before it is deemed a risk to health.
More than 5,000 people a year in the UK die as a result of asbestos-related diseases, according to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). It said most of the asbestos-related deaths, from mesothelioma, lung cancer and asbestosis, came "largely as a result of asbestos exposure prior to 1980". The use

Where will I get the money to repair my vehicle?
How am I going to pay my bills while I am out of work?

An experienced Longmont car accident lawyer at Jorgensen, Brownell & Pepin, P.C. can protect your rights and fight for the compensation you deserve. While you focus on recovering, we can take care of the rest.
So You've Been in a Car Accident – What Now?
Check to make sure that you and your passengers are okay. Then, as soon as it is safe to do so, check on the other driver, move to safety, and call for help.
If there are injuries involved, call 911 to get an ambulance and the police to the accident scene.
When the police arrive, they will fill out an accident report. Obtain a copy of this report – this will be valuable in a personal injury claim.
Avoid making any statements to anyone other than the police. Anything you say to the other driver or their insurance company can potentially be used against you to make it sound like the accident was your fault, which could end up costing you your claim. Keep it strictly business and only exchange contact and insurance information with the other driver.
Take videos and/or photos of the accident scene, any visible injuries, and any damage to your vehicle.
If anyone witnessed your accident, try to get their names and contact information. They may be able to help your claim by corroborating your story.
Obtain medical care as soon as possible. Even if you don't immediately feel hurt, you should still be evaluated by a doctor.

Be sure to keep records of the care you received for your claim.
Contact Jorgensen, Brownell & Pepin, P.C. to talk to a lawyer about your legal right to compensation.
Insurance companies want you to believe that they work for your best interests, but the reality is that they are only concerned with their bottom line.

Fox News sues Democratic Senate candidate
Thu Sep 16, 2010 @ 07:35AM PST
EXCLUSIVE: Fox News and one of its top journalists have filed a lawsuit against the campaign of Missouri senate candidate Robin Carnahan, alleging that the Democrat used proprietary footage in a campaign advertisement to make it appear that the network was endorsing her.
The lawsuit, filed late yesterday in U.S. District Court in Missouri, claims copyright infringement, invasion of privacy and misappropriation of likeness. Fox News and on-air newsman Chris Wallace are demanding an injunction against further use of the campaign commercial and unspecified monetary damages.
Fox News often has been criticized for its political leanings. The cable news network has recently been charged with getting too close to the Republican party by making monetary contributions to the party's gubernatorial candidates. Now, the Rupert Murdoch-controlled company is breaking new ground, filing a lawsuit against a prominent Democratic politician targeting a practice that has long been common in the political world.
According to the complaint, the commercial was a "smear ad" against Roy Blunt, the Republican nominee for the Missouri senate seat. The spot (entitled "Clean up the House") used footage in a June 15, 2006 interview conducted with Blunt by "Fox News Sunday" host Wallace.
In the ad, Wallace addresses Blunt and says, "You just said a moment ago that you have to show that you're the party of reform but some question whether you are the man to do that. In 2002, you tried to insert language into the Homeland Security Act to help Phillip Morris tobacco [company] while you were dating that company's lobbyist. And your campaign committee's paid $485,000 to a firm linked to lobbyist Jack Abramoff."
Wallace then asks Blunt, "Are you the one to clean up the house?"
The ad has already been taken down from of Carnahan's website with the message: "The interview with Roy Blunt that Fox News doesn't want you to see has been temporarily removed."
YouTube has also pulled the advertisement after being served a takedown notice by Fox.
Fox News claims that the "verbatim reproduction" of the interview without consent "(1) allows Defendant to profit commercially without paying the traditional price; (2) causes substantial harm to the value of the FNS Interview, and (3) was based upon the unique expressive content of the FNS Interview."
The cable news network says that by using the interview, "Defendant harmed the value of the original work by compromising its apparent objectivity."
The Carnahan campaign wasn't immediately available to offer a response, but we're betting it will try to assert a "fair use" defense. Showcasing media interviews in campaign commercials is common and has been assumed to be appropriately in-bounds.
The subject of "fair use" has been a hot topic in Fox News circles in the past year. In an interview last November, Murdoch claimed that courts would eventually bar "fair use" as a legal doctrine, but the network has used it on a couple of occasions to defend itself in lawsuits against alleged misappropriation of the copyright of others.
We'll have more on this soon.

Saxifrage's literal big swim was indeed a huge physical feat: a wetsuit-free eight-kilometer crossing between Cortes and Quadra Islands, during which a swim cap, neoprene leggings (worn on her arms where she feels the cold the most), and lanolin-coated skin were her only protection. With her husband Barry in a boat at her side, she completed the swim in three hours and forty minutes. When she landed on the shores of Quadra, a friend's mother declared, "You looked just like an ocean baby being born." Indeed, Saxifrage belongs in the sea as much as in the Cascade Mountains of Washington State or Mount Albert Edward on Vancouver Island.
The Big Swim captured my heart and brought me along on each of Saxifrage's journeys with intense and savored delight.

Advertising to today's audience is more complicated than ever. Often times, a simple exercise in awareness is met with skepticism and general tuning-out because consumers are more connected and informed than ever. And there's an emerging generation that's inherently cynical about brand messaging. How do you grab the attention of an audience that doesn't want to be sold to? It's all about the content.
Content strategy is paramount in connecting consumers with brands. If you don't have a good story to tell, no one will listen. The story can range from a value proposition to full-on entertainment, but it better be interesting and engaging. You can't afford to lose your audience to mediocre brand storytelling. We craft content strategies tailor-made to a brand's needs in a variety of mediums, and execute them with precision.
The channels to reach your audience.
There are many ways to reach your audience with a story. Web, social, video, experiential, and traditional channels are all considered when devising content strategy for our clients. Every situation is unique, and our content strategies are tailored to the needs of the brand and campaign.
Content management is important to enable more efficient and streamlined content delivery. We take our technology-agnostic approach to Content Management Systems, working with our clients to identify appropriate platforms and workflows.

Apple Watch remarkably survives for two weeks at the bottom of a lake
By Andy Meek

A pair of Apple Watches was recently recovered in perfectly fine working condition in Connecticut, where they'd spent two weeks at the bottom of a lake in one of the more remarkable stories we've seen so far about the resilience of Apple's signature wearable device.
"One of" being the operative phrase, since it's actually not the most impressive, but more on that later.
Don't Miss: Today's deals: Microsoft 365 sale, $6 smart bulbs, Bose deals, Fire Stick sale, more
The Apple Watch Series 4 is able to withstand water at a depth of up to 50 meters. That helps explains why a police dive team in Brookfield, Connecticut, was able to find the pair of Apple Watches in good condition while conducting a routine training exercise. Afterward, they showed off their find on Twitter:
Our dive team did it again! While conducting training operations in #CandlewoodLake members of the BPD dive team located (2) @apple watches in just under 25 feet of water. They were still operational and returned to their owners ! We were told they have been there for two weeks! pic.twitter.com/h0DJHZEukd

(Strange fact: This is actually not the first time Apple Watches have been recovered from that lake.)
We mentioned earlier that this is only "one of" the more remarkable examples of how resilient the watch is. That's because earlier this year we saw an even more dramatic recovery than this one, when a surfer from Huntington Beach, Calif., recovered his Apple Watch a whopping six months after it fell into the ocean.
Not only is the watch resilient, but it's also pretty much unassailably dominant — in its product category, that is. According to new data from Strategy Analytics, Apple shipped 5.7 million watches during the second quarter of this year. That's up a full 50% year-over-year, compared to 3.8 million watches during the same period in 2018. Moreover, Apple's share of the smartwatch market is now close to 50%, up from 44% during the same quarter last year.
"Apple Watch remains a long way ahead of the chasing pack," Strategy Analytics executive director Neil Mawston said in a statement about the numbers, adding that it's "fended off strong competition from hungry rivals" and "remains the clear smartwatch market leader."
Samsung and Fitbit are in second and third place, respectively, after Apple in the smartwatch category when ranked by market share, according to the Strategy Analytics data.

ANKARA: A Turkish court on Tuesday sentenced a prominent journalist serving a life sentence to almost six additional years in prison for leaking information deemed secret by the government, the state-owned Anadolu news agency said.
Nazli Ilicak was sentenced to life in prison along with five other journalists last February for aiding plotters of a 2016 failed coup attempt. All six of the journalists, including Ilicak, have denied the charges.
On Tuesday, the court sentenced Ilicak to five years and 10 months in prison in a separate case where she was charged with "sharing information that needed to remain secret for the security of the state," Anadolu said.
Ilicak, a journalist, columnist and former lawmaker, had also been sentenced to 14 months in prison last year for insulting the president, a crime punishable by up to four years in prison in Turkey.
Along with Ilicak, two prominent journalist brothers — Ahmet and Mehmet Altan — were sentenced to life in prison last February. The case had underscored deep concern about press freedom and the independence of the judiciary in Turkey under President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
The government blames followers of US-based cleric Fethullah Gulen for masterminding the coup, and has waged a crackdown on suspected members of his network since then. Gulen has denied involvement in the coup and condemned it.
Since the abortive putsch, some 77,000 people have been jailed and more than 150,000 sacked or suspended from their jobs in the military, public and private sectors.
Rights groups and Turkey's western allies have voiced alarm over the scale of the crackdown, saying Erdogan is using the coup as a pretext to quash dissent.
The government, however, rejects the criticism and says the measures are necessary due to the gravity of the security threat it faces.

The Evil That Men Do (1984)
March 28, 2016 · by Eric Binford · in 1984. ·
Charles Bronson (Death Wish) plays an ex-hitman who comes out of retirement in order to avenge the murder of an old friend. His mission takes him to South America, where he finds the man responsible for his friend's death, a sinister doctor (Joseph Maher, Sister Act) working for the local government as an expert in political torture.
"The evil that men do lives after them; the good is oft interred with their bones." William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar (Act 3, Scene 2)
The Evil that Men Do is not the best film of its kind, but it's an entertaining movie nevertheless, especially if you are in the mood for a mean-spirited and unpretentious thriller. The movie offers plenty of hair-raising car chases, gruesome murders, and mayhem, but the lack of a coherent storyline hurts the film a bit.
Directed by J. Lee Thompson (The Guns of Navarone and Cape Fear) from a screenplay by R. Lance Hill and John Crowther (Missing in Action) based on Hill's novel of the same name, The Evil that Men Do was made close to the end of Bronson's reign at the box office, and the film suffers in comparison to his other action movies.
The film is best remembered as one of the nine films Bronson and Thompson made together, a partnership that created some really fun, unpretentious thrillers. Thompson does a good job of keeping up the pace, and septuagenarian Bronson is a pretty spry gun-toting anti-hero. I thought script was the main problem here, but heck, nobody watches these films with the idea of getting a rock-solid story.
The Evil that Men Do has, however, become suddenly, and unexpectedly, relevant to post 9/11 movie audiences. The movie doesn't try to be anything but an action movie, but within the context of today's global terrorism, the film's attitude towards terrorists and torture is interesting. Does torture really work? How far would you go to stop a terrorist? These questions add unintended new layers to the thrilling action set-pieces.
The film has a great supporting cast: Theresa Saldana (I Wanna Hold Your Hand), José Ferrer (The Caine Mutiny), John Glover (The Chocolate War), Joe Seneca (The Verdict), and René Enríquez (Lt. Ray Calletano, TV's Hill Street Blues). The fine work of the actors lends credibility to the proceedings. I also liked the ominous music score by Oscar-winning composer Ken Thorne (Superman II & III).
The Evil that Men Do is essentially a noirish B-movie and a fine example of the type of roles Bronson was famous for throughout his successful movie career. Fans of action icon Charles Bronson should be pleased. I'm sure action junkies will enjoy it too. The film is not high art by any standards, but compared to producer Michael Bay's overblown productions, this movie holds up really well. Color, 90 minutes, Rated R.
