Why Clinical Trials Are So Essential in the Health care Occupation
You have most likely read of individuals who have taken portion in clinical trials above the many years, some may possibly have located a productive treatment method for their daily life threatening illness, others may not have been so blessed. This could go away you pondering why medical trials are so critical and how they can make a variation in the health-related job moving ahead.
The first purpose why medical trials are so important is that they identify how new prospective treatment options function. They are dispersed to specific folks who have selected to take part, these people are then monitored regularly to recognize how the treatment is working, if it creating a distinction and how they react to the new medicine.
Another cause why this tests phase is so imperative ahead of any medication is unveiled to the general public is that the builders have to make certain that it is secure. Cliniverse Research indicates the only way they can genuinely identify how it is likely to impact the human body is to give it to humans, individuals with and without significant illnesses, to make sure that it does as it is meant to and can make a optimistic distinction in hundreds of thousands of people's life in the foreseeable future.
In the course of the medical demo, some individuals will be given one dose with other folks getting presented yet another. This is used to determine the best advised dosage to offer with the medicine once released. The aim is to make sure the dosage instructions are safe and effective.
More, you will uncover that medical trials give researchers and builders the potential to determine the result of their medication or gadget. Scientific trials are utilised for prescription drugs, medical gear and so considerably far more and this is developed to support these medicinal companies get their merchandise on the shelf and made accessible to the market.
It is essential to note that scientific trials is only a really tiny part of the investigation process and only a handful of these products really make it to the public, there are thousands and thousands of projects which aren't approved and consequently in no way make it to the clinic or pharmacy shelf.
The approach for producing a new medication or product is a long and complicated 1 and requires several a long time. It begins with the concept of creation of the item, this is carried out in a laboratory setting. From right here the medication or merchandise is purified and analyzed in the laboratory. At this phase it is generally check tube tests, which can get anywhere up to 6 several years to perfect. It is then normally analyzed on animal check topics to make sure its security just before even making it to human trials.
Those medicines that make it to human testing having the highest likelihood of success. The trial is not signed off unless of course all the research leading up to that level can determine that the safety issue is not compromised. However it is essential to observe that medical trials can not assure your protection and all medications do come with a danger, it is up to you to weigh up the likely rewards and the risks to see if the benefits outweigh the danger and can make a good difference to your daily life, before you take into account taking component in any examine of this mother nature.
It is critical to observe that even if you choose to just take part in a scientific trial venture, there is no guarantee that the solution is heading to make it to the community. Very few of these items in fact get to the public and it truly is not a cheap exercise either. It will take years of dedication and enthusiasm to get a new medicine on to the shelf and manufactured obtainable to these who can advantage from it.

If this past summer transfer window indicates how sporting advisor Luis Campos will construct Paris Saint-Germain, it's with young players with high upside.
Midfielder Vitinha and striker Hugo Ekitike fit into this mold. Additionally, Campos has revamped the midfield, and it appears as though the Portuguese club chief isn't done molding the position.
On Friday, iNews reported that Paris Saint-Germain is in the mix alongside FC Barcelona and Newcastle United for 18-year-old Vasco de Gama wonderkid Andrey Santos.
Nonetheless, Newcastle's chief scout Steve Nickson is "firmly embedded" in the South American market and hopes to use their new status and contacts in Brazil to work on a contract.
The teenager is a box-to-box midfielder and viewed as one of Brazil's brightest prospects, already commanding an asking price of nearly £30 million. However, local reports have indicated that Newcastle is willing to fulfill that cost.
PSG hasn't shopped in the Brazilian market for some time, but that could change under Campos. The sporting advisor also did something that the French giants didn't often do, shop in Ligue 1, so he isn't afraid to debunk past trends.

You've probably heard of a sex offender registry before. Established in 2006, such registries are supposed to help the public stay informed about convicted offenders in their neighborhood.
Each state maintains its own registry. As such, the specific requirements for registration and public notification vary from state to state. These registries are available to the public, and they are usually searchable by name and/or geographical region.
Over the years, certain misconceptions about the registry have developed. Some may think that, if someone's a registered sex offender, that must mean they're a potential risk for violence. Or, they are on there because they are likely to commit the same kinds of crimes again.
In some cases, that may be so. But in others, maybe not.
With the implementation of Megan's Law, sex offender registries were created with the intention of keeping the public apprised of convicted sex offenders. Yes, this could include violent repeat offenders. But it's important to keep in mind that, while certain crimes may require an individual to register as a sex offender, they don't all necessarily indicate a person's tendency toward violence or repeating their offense.
A person must register as a sex offender if they were convicted of:
-Exploitation of a minor
-Sexual assault (rape)
-Statutory rape
-Indecent exposure
-Failing to register
Exploitation of a Minor
This is one of the most obvious sex offender crimes. And it's actually one of the main reasons the government created the sex offense registry to begin with. This broad category can apply to an individual being inappropriate directly with a minor, or it can apply to an individual exposing a minor to inappropriate content.
Less-serious offenses may still constitute exploitation of a minor if someone previously committed a serious offense with a minor.
Sexual Assault
Different states have different definitions when it comes to "sexual assault," especially when it comes to whether an assault constitutes a misdemeanor or a felony. Generally, it includes most instances where someone forces another person to have sexual contact. Offenses against children are usually considered more serious, and so they are more likely to come with a harsher sentence.
In most states, this includes both consensual and non-consensual incest between relatives. The reason the courts consider incest such a serious crime is that it involves an imbalance of power. This is similar to the imbalance you might find in a relationship between an adult and a minor.
Each state has its own definition of incest, which covers a smaller or larger circle of family and determines if it's a sex offense.
Statutory Rape
This refers to a relationship between someone below the age of consent and someone above the age of consent. (Again, the age of consent varies between states; it typically ranges from 14-18.) As such, this falls under the same umbrella as exploitation of a minor, since minors can't consent to sexual contact with anyone over the age of consent.
Legally, there's no such thing as a consensual sexual encounter between a minor and an adult.
Soliciting Prostitution
Prostitution is illegal nearly nationwide. (Only Nevada has a few counties where it's legal.) But it's often treated similarly to other crimes that don't involve sex.
In a few select states, solicitation (when someone pays a sex worker) may be reason for someone to register with the sex offense registry. This applies even if the encounter is consensual.
Indecent Exposure
This is a huge umbrella term, and it might surprise you how much ground it covers. On one hand, indecent exposure can have a sexually violent motivation: flashing. The intention is to alarm or disturb a victim, as well as some kind of sexual gratification for the perpetrator.
But on the other hand, indecent exposure also often includes non-sexual exposure, like streaking and public urination. So the actual crime, while certainly ill-advised, might be much less severe than it sounds.
Some Types of Sexting
Possessing sexual images of a minor is considered exploitation of that minor. But while minors may legally have sexual contact with each other under some circumstances, it's entirely illegal for a minor to take or send nude pictures. This can lead to sex offense convictions for both the minor who took the picture and the minor who received it.
Not Applying to the Registry
In some states, failing to apply to the sex offender registry is itself a sex offense, and is listed on the registry. If someone moves, the person has to re-register with their new address. Failure to register usually counts as a violation of the person's sentence.
How Do You Know Who to Trust?
The sex offense registry is helpful in many ways. But it's not perfect. The actual crime that landed someone on the registry can range from fairly minor incredibly severe.
To try and confirm the degree of severity, a good option is to try and get the details using a public records site. You can perform a criminal records check to try and get information about a person's criminal background, including any sex offenses. That way, you can try to make yourself more fully informed about the crime and its actual circumstances.

Bobby Shmurda has joined forces with Eladio Carrion, J Balvin, and Daddy Yankee on the Remix for Carrion's track, "TATA," which comes with gritty and electrifying visuals.
Shmurda slides with the Latin rap duo of J Balvin and Eladio Carrion, with the artists flipping back and forth from spitting in Spanish and English. As the scenes in the video shift from the streets to the trenches to MTA service busses, Daddy Yankee appears lounging on a hammock to close "TATA" out.
Before jumping on the "TATA" remix, Bobby Shmurda returned to a festival stage for the first time this past weekend as he made a special guest appearance at Rolling Loud Miami. Despite only being on for roughly 20-minutes, the New York rapper delivered fan-favorite tracks like "Computers" and "Hot N*gga," while also playing some unreleased songs.
As an eyewitness to Shmurda christening the Rolling Loud stage, I must say, the only time during the entire festival that I thought I might lose my life was when I was struggling with 75,000 other humans to Shmoney dance in Bobby's direct line of vision. That's to say: he had the ground moving and looks ready to take on more live events.
Bobby is also set to appear in Made in America, which will be taking place in Philadelphia at the beginning of September. Other acts include Doja Cat, Megan Thee Stallion, Roddy Ricch, Lil Durk, Freddie Gibbs, Baby Keem, A$AP Ferg, Moneybagg Yo, Tinashe, Morray, 42 Dugg, EST Gee, and more.

The Gomu Gomu no Mi, previously known as the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika, grants the user a rubber-like body with increased strength and flexibility, allowing them to fight in any manner they choose. This power has earned the user the title of "Warrior of Liberation," as they bring joy and freedom to those around them. The fruit's power has been described as "the most ridiculous power in the world." In this state, the user's heartbeat takes on a musical rhythm known as the "Drums of Liberation," their hair and clothes turn white, and their eyes glow with red ring-like pupils. Clouds float around their neck, similar to the steam clouds that accompany them in Gear 4. Gear 5 transforms the user's outfit to their usual pants and sandals. As an awakened Zoan, the user gains greater strength, speed, and durability than those without this power. They can even fight and defeat powerful opponents like Kaidou on nearly equal footing. Their physical feats in Gear 5 are almost absurd, such as spinning their legs fast enough to run through midair and generating enough friction to ignite fire in their wake. They can even spin like a top with enough force to turn into a burrowing drill.
In his Mythical Zoan form, Luffy's body gains an unprecedented level of flexibility and malleability, with Kaidou describing it as resembling something from a picture book. Even Haki attacks seem to have little effect on him in this state. Luffy can inflate his limbs and muscles without needing to pump air into his body, granting him immense strength, as demonstrated when he effortlessly lifted Kaidou's transformed body. He can also manipulate his surroundings to be like rubber, bouncing off surfaces and even making them elastic. Interestingly, Luffy can even affect intangible matter such as lightning with this power. Additionally, Gear 5 allows Luffy to materialize objects from his flaming hair, such as goggles.

Cataracts are protein formations that buildup on the lens of the eye. Cataracts develop gradually, so vision is unlikely to be affected immediately. However, eventually the cataract will worsen and cloud over the eye's lens, which can cause blurry and unfocused vision.
Early diagnosis and treatment is key to managing cataracts and preventing permanent vision loss. Because of this, it is important that people know about cataract risk factors and causes so they are aware if they are susceptible to this eye disease. Here, Dr. Raul Peña, whose eye clinic serves the Harlingen, TX, area, discusses the characteristics that increase the risk of developing cataracts.
What Causes Cataracts?
Cataracts are most commonly caused by changes in the eye that are linked to aging or eye injury. These changes can cause the tissues of the eye's lens to break down so that proteins and fibers clump together. These clumps, or formations, make portions of the lens appear cloudy or fogged over. As cataracts grow, they have a greater impact on vision. Cataracts can make it difficult to focus on fine details and colors, and can lead to glares, halos, and increased sensitivity to light.
Cataract Risk Factors
While aging and eye injuries are the two most common causes of cataracts, there are many other conditions that increase the risk of this eye disease. Risk factors do not guarantee that a person will develop cataracts, but it does mean that they are more susceptible. Some of the risk factors that are known to put a person at greater risk of cataracts include:
- A family history of cataracts
- A past eye injury or eye surgery
- Past radiation treatment on the upper portion of the body
- Spending extended amounts of time in the sun (especially if UV-blocking sunglasses are not worn)
- Prolonged use of steroid medication
- Smoking
- Excessive consumption of alcohol
- Certain medical or health-related conditions, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and obesity
Can Cataracts Be Prevented?
When our Harlingen patients have risk factors that are known to increase the likelihood of cataracts, they often want to know if there is anything they can do to prevent cataracts from developing. Currently, there is nothing that has been proven to prevent cataracts or slow down their development. However, there are steps that individuals can take to promote good eye health and ensure that, if cataracts develop, they are diagnosed early on.
The following practices can be beneficial to anyone, but the are especially important for individuals who are susceptible to cataracts:
- Schedule routine eye exams (annual eye exams are often recommended for those who are at high risk of developing cataracts)
- Refrain from smoking
- Limit alcohol consumption
- Wear sunglasses when outdoors
- Manage health conditions that have been linked to an increased risk of cataracts
Get In Touch
If you have noticed any changes in vision or are simply concerned about your risk of cataracts, a comprehensive eye exam is the best way to monitor your eye health. To schedule an appointment with Dr. Raul Peña, send us a message online, or call our Harlingen eye institute at (956) 264-1200.


text: Carnanelly, GI/SM-004 - 562m ASL - H 675 921 - OSNI Discoverer 13 - 4 SOTA points I had really enjoyed my earlier walk on Slieve Gallion GI/SM-007 on Monday 3rd July 2017. Unfortunately the same could not be said for this summit, which we did later that same day! We parked on the B47 close to Goles Bridge then cut across the field, past a few donkeys then began the dreary slog uphill. A farmer chased us on his quadbike, and we half-expected to be booted off the land. But in fact he explained that he'd recently had issues with sheep falling in ditches and thought we were inspectors! He asked if we would keep an eye out for any sheep in trouble. Every so often, Jimmy would disappear beyond the horizon above me, then reappear again, so I had an idea which way I was heading! The summit was as featureless as most of the walk to get there, so we just got on with the radio stuff. Again, contacts were not coming in great numbers, but enough for us both to qualify without major stress. Time to get on with the squelchy descent! We got back to the cottage for a shower - we each had our own en suite bathroom, which was fantastic. In search of food, we headed first to the most local pub - Eddie's Crossroad. The landlady there explained that she didn't do food - as such - but offered us a plate of Ulster Fry! We love Ulster Fries (a cooked breakfast but done the Northern Irish way with soda bread, potato bread and pancakes) and so readily accepted. Served with a big pot of tea and a mountain of bread & butter, it was a steal at £5 each. We also indulged ourselves with several Guinness and a few games of pool. I was absolutely shattered, so I told Jimmy we would just get up the next morning when we felt like it rather than set an alarm for one of our customary early starts. The next day was scheduled to be lousy weather through the first part of the day anyway. We kicked off around lunchtime with Mullaghaneany GI/SM-003.

Conventional wisdom dictates that it is all-but-impossible to discharge student loans in bankruptcy. This contention, however, misstates the fact that bankruptcy discharge of student loans is possible—and it happens. This Article presents a statistical analysis of what happened when Chapter 7 bankruptcy petitioners in the First and Third federal judicial circuits filed 523(a)(8) adversary proceedings—or proceedings to discharge their student loan debt due to an "undue hardship." In our analysis, we found undue hardship discharge rates of 54% in the First Circuit and 24% in the Third Circuit. But more significantly, we found that undue hardship determinations were relatively rare. A plurality of cases was dismissed at the debtors' behest. The next most common resolution was settlements between debtors and creditors. And when all forms of resolution were considered, 51% of First Circuit debtors and 46% of Third Circuit debtors who sought discharge of their student loans obtained some form of relief—either an undue hardship discharge, a settlement, or a default judgment. These rates, while not representing certainty, surely do not reflect the near-impossibility of relief that is often assumed when student loans are discussed in the context of bankruptcy.

Responses by Libby DeLana, cofounder/creative director, Mechanica, Graceann Bennett, founder/chief strategist, Playbook Studio and Steve Harfst, chief executive officer, Eastern Airlines
Background: Our goal was to resurrect one of the oldest brands in aviation and reimagine it for an entirely new audience. We wanted to tap into the brand value of Eastern Airlines, knowing that most global audiences would have never heard of the brand. We wanted to open up underserved markets around the globe with low cost, direct flights, so more people can explore and experience the awe and wonder of air travel.
Reasoning: The solution was to tap into our "Explorer" roots and the spirit of adventure of air travel in 1925 when the original Eastern took flight. We also wanted these global citizens to feel like this was as much their airline as it is an American airline. We spent a lot of time working on a design system that had universal iconography as well as a map icon for each place we fly. We spent a lot of time talking to the local crews. They gave us perspectives on their market and helped us keep Eastern Airlines relevant for their markets and cultures.
Challenges: When we decided to bring back the Eastern brand, we knew a lot of the industry would be watching us closely. There are strong feelings about the Eastern brand name and a desire to respect the past. But to stand out and be relevant today, we wanted to be more adventurous in our interpretation of the brand. We are also building a much different airline, with new routes and local audiences, and needed to make sure that it focused on where we are headed and not where we've been.
Favorite details: The partnership with Playbook Studio's strategic work, and how that beautifully translated to the design. Visually, the team did an incredible job of using the "explorer" archetype as our muse and embracing the idea of exploration and moving from the original logo "the bird" icon to "birds eye view," inspired by the topographic maps of the locations that Eastern now flies. The notion of creating a unique logo for each location also generated a great deal of local pride with the crew as the flights are staffed with people from the destination.
Visual influences: The colors of the sea, sky and sun, and how those were also the historic colors of the original Eastern Airlines. Also, the diversity and vibrancy of the historic advertising posters.
Anything new: We learned a lot about these new global citizens and travelers and how only 20 percent of the world's population has ever stepped on an airplane, according to a National Geographic study. It was great to do research with the local crews and get to know their cultures through their lens. Also, it is incredible to learn about how much needs to be done behind the scenes to start an airline. Working with chief executive officer Steve Harfst was also amazing, as he trusted us to do our job, as he was busy doing what he needed to do to have this airline take flight.

Tottenham vs Arsenal report: Arsenal match report
Tottenham hosted rivals Arsenal in a hugely important North London Derby. Mauricio Pochettino's side faced the fear of the Gunners closing the gap between the pair to just a single point.
Unai Emery shocked gunners fans with the line-up as he benched Mesut Ozil, Lucas Torreira and top scorer Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Shkodran Mustafi was preferred over a fit-again Ainsley Maitland-Niles at right-back.
Jan Vertonghen passed a late fitness test for the hosts and started on the left side of a three-man defence.
The first chance of the game fell to Alexandre Lacazette after a deflected pass and the Frenchman missed a difficult volley chance. Tottenham maintained early possession but failed to create a meaningful chance.
Arsenal were not at their usual pressing best but were smart in their positioning and gave Mauricio Pochettino's side little space to work with. The Gunners opened the scoring after Lacazette's pass put Wembley king Aaron Ramsey through on goal and the Welshman sat Lloris down and finished with ease.
Spurs again found it difficult to create anything in the final third with both of Arsenal's wingers tracking back to help the full-backs. A freekick by Kieran Trippier in the 27th saw Harry Kane head the ball home but was rightly disallowed as the Englishman was clearly offside.
Alex Iwobi drove into the 40th minute and his right-footed strike was saved by Lloris. Spurs really looked to turn up the tempo in the dying minutes of the first half but Bernd Leno's spectacular double save kept the Gunners lead. Leno saved a close-range shot from Eriksen before making one of the saves of the season to deny Mousa Sissoko.
Arsenal deservedly went into the change rooms at half time with a 1-0 lead.
Lucas Torreira came on for the Gunners at the start of the second half in place of Matteo Guendouzi. The first chance of the half fell to Alexandre Lacazette after a brilliant build play on the left-hand side from Iwobi and Monreal but the Frenchman fired just wide.
The miss turned out to be his last contribution to the game as he was replaced by Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Spurs made their first change by bringing off Wanyama for Erik Lamela in the 59th minute. The Argentine picked up a yellow card after a poor tackle and Granit Xhaka.
Danny Rose was the next Spurs player to go into the book after a studs-up challenge on Bernd Leno. The Englishman's challenge looked nasty and was arguably lucky to stay on. Arsenal continued to frustrate their North London rivals who looked clueless in the final third. Mesut Ozil replaced goalscorer Aaron Ramsey in the 72nd minute and the Welshman received a standing ovation from the Arsenal fans.
Harry Kane, who looked offside in the replays, was pushed by Mustafi in the box and the referee awarded the hosts a penalty. Kane sent Leno the wrong way and levelled the game for Spurs. Granit Xhaka was booked in the aftermath of the penalty due to dissent.
Fernando Llorente replaced Son in the 78th minute as the hosts looked to kill off the game. The Spaniard was booked 5 mins after for an unintentional elbow in the face of Laurent Koscielny.
Arsenal won a penalty in the dying moments of the game after Davinson Sanchez pulled Aubameyang in the box. The Gabonese's kick from the spot was saved by Hugo Lloris as Spurs held on. The drama continued as Lucas Torreira was sent off in the final minute of stoppage time after a tackle on Danny Rose. An enthralling 90 minutes came to an end as the hosts held on to a 1-1 draw into then.

If you need anymore evidence of the @FA being biased, the last 95 minutes is all you need. Kane and Poch shouldn't be there, offside for penalty, poor red card decision. That's just touching the surface of their preference for Spurs.

Was ready to run around the house if Auba scored that penalty but it wasn't to be. Overall we've taken 4 points from Spurs this season and have to keep the big picture in mind. Focus on Rennes and then Man United next week which will decide the race for 4th. #COYG #Arsenal

Good performance from the team today. A poor decision has cost us the game. Keep your chin up @Aubameyang7 you will make up for that missed pen before the end of the season I'm sure. Not a bad point we move on to the next game.

I often criticised the lads but today the boys made me proud 💪💪💪 There was a fighting spirit, game plan and fantastic teamwork. All we missed was a bit of luck in the end. COYG ❤❤❤ London is red ❤❤❤

The Most Interesting Principal in the World: Cedarcrest Middle School's Scott Martin
He bought his own airplane, and then crashed it. He helped create a video game company that sold for $1 million. He goes snowshoe camping on Mount Rainier in the winter. He bungee jumps just to have a cool story. He is the most interesting principal in the world.
Cedarcrest Middle School Principal Scott Martin has led an adventurous life, to say the least. But it wasn't always that way.
Martin grew up in nearby Parkland, Washington and his childhood was pretty typical — maybe even a little boring. He wasn't the most athletic kid in the world, so he shied away from sports in favor of arts and theater. His dad's a pastor, and Martin spent a lot of time hanging out with his friends from his church's youth group.
Despite describing his younger self as a "classic nerd," Martin wasn't a great student in school. He says he was one of those frustrating kids who scores high on standardized tests, but doesn't put in the effort to actually get good grades.
He finally found his calling when he was cast in the lead of a high school play. Martin fell head-over-heals in love with all things theater, and when he headed off to college at Whitworth University, he knew exactly what he wanted to study.
Martin's passion for theater wasn't about getting famous even becoming a professional actor on Broadway. He loved that the techniques he was learning seemingly translated to so many other careers.
"I've been very excited about how applicable the theatrical skills really are. When you're training as an actor, really you're training to see other people's perspective so you can emulate it — trying to understand the emotions that are going into things so you can reproduce them," he said.
He didn't know it at the time, but Martin's college theater classes were preparing him for a life in education.
But that would come later. First, Martin tried his hand in the business world. He spent his first post-college years working for the Gap Corporation, leading a team that opened three Baby Gap stores in the Puget Sound area.
It was a good job, but he eventually grew tired of it and wanted to do something more meaningful with his life. For fun, he had been working with a youth theater group, which led him to start thinking about becoming a teacher.
After talking to his wife and mother in law — both of whom were working as teachers in the Bethel School District — Martin decided to try his hand at education.
The first job he got was a paraeducator in Puyallup working with developmentally delayed fifth and sixth graders. It was a tough job, but he absolutely loved being able to make a difference in kids' lives.
"That sold me hook, line and sinker," he said. "I was ready to be an educator."
Martin went back to school to get his master's degree in teaching, and then he spent six years teaching everything from English to math to P.E. at a junior high school in Puyallup.
It was during his time in Puyallup that he began thinking about transitioning into an administrative role. He loved teaching, but he wanted to see what kind of impact he could make on a larger scale. The one thing he knew for sure was that he wanted to be in a middle school.
"Middle school is where I belong," he said. "Middle schoolers are on this bridge between being kids and adults. Mathematically, they're closer to toddlers than they are to adulthood, but emotionally they're stretching to become adults."
Martin's first full-role in administration was at Frontier Middle School, where he was dean of students under then-principal Tom Mitchell. A year later he was named assistant principal at Frontier, and he stayed in that role for five years until both he and Mitchell moved to Liberty Middle School.
He later spent two years as an assistant principal at Spanaway Lake High School, but his passion remained in middle school, so when he was given the chance to lead Cedarcrest, he jumped at it.
"It's such an amazing time to connect with those kids. There's no place better than middle school to be in the mix of them growing and changing and figuring out who they are," he said.
Never one to rest on his laurels, Martin used his free time to explore other passions in his life. And boy, those passions have led to some interesting stories.
"I sort of collect unique experiences in my life," Martin said. "I've been skydiving. I've been bungee jumping. I've owned my own plane, I've crashed my own plane. My college roommate and I founded a video game company that had over a quarter million people using it."
Ok, about that video game company. In 2009, Martin and a group of his friends founded a company in Seattle that produced what became a very successful fantasy sports video game.
At one point more than 250,000 Facebook users were playing the game, and that got the attention of gaming giant Zynga, which swooped in and bought the entire company for a million dollars.
Martin said most of that money went back to the company's early investors, so it wasn't like he was ready to retire to the Caribbean. He could have stayed on and worked at the company, but he felt it was time to move on to other adventures.
That next adventure came in the form of an airplane. Even though he'd never even thought of becoming a pilot, Martin and his friend decided to go in on a small Cessna Cardinal airplane and learn to fly it.
Over the course of a year, Martin learned to pilot his new plane. Before long he had racked up an impressive 95 hours of flying time, which is just 5 hours short of the 100 needed to get insured.
And then he crashed the plane.
It was the first day of summer vacation, and Martin decided to pack up his golf clubs and make the short flight to Olympia to play a round of golf with a friend. Everything was going great until the landing. Just as he was preparing to touch down, the plane's tail stalled out and it fell roughly 15 feet down onto the runway.
"Bouncing up and down wildly down the runway at 80 miles per hour, my eyes were pretty big and there was sort of an 'expletive moment.' But I managed to pull it together and then it was just bleeding off the adrenaline," Martin said.
Martin wasn't hurt, but the plane was in shambles. It took a full year to fix, and by that time Martin had moved on to his next adventure. He flew the plane once more and hasn't been back in it since.
Martin has since moved on to outdoor adventures. He and his wife recently hiked the Wonderland Trail, which he describes as being "93 miles in the middle of nowhere." The couple also went snowshoe camping in a tent on Mount Rainier this winter.
Martin insists he's not an adrenaline junkie. Rather, he says, it's all about collecting amazing experiences.
"It makes me nervous and kind of freaks me out, but I guess I'm not interested in living life where there's not cool stories," he said. "It's not that I track adrenaline, but I do chase cool stories."
Despite all of his extracurricular activities, Martin's true joy comes from running Cedarcrest and working with his teachers and students.
"I'm just super jazzed to be at Cedarcrest," he said. "The growth that I've seen since I've been here with teachers, the vision they have for this building and the future is amazing. Just being part of that has been incredible."

The Kettering care home using Tik Tok to entertain residents
and live on Freeview channel 276
A Kettering care home has gained more than a million views and 15,000 followers on Tik Tok after sharing videos of residents on the social media site.
Westhill Park's most popular video has had 1.2m views and 126,800 likes and shows residents dancing to a mash up of popular Tik Tok music including 'Savage' by Megan Thee Stallion.
Hide AdAdvertisement
Hide AdThe care home has been following and recreating trending videos with residents and sharing the results on Tik Tok, a social media site that allows users to record, edit and share videos of themselves.
As well as their 'Savage' dance, Westhill Park has done a version of the 'Flip the Switch' challenge.
This uses Drake's sone 'Nonstop' and when the rapper says 'flip the switch', the two people switch position and clothing instantaneously through clever editing. In Westhill's video, a resident and care worker switch position and clothes.
Another video trend the care home have recreated is the human hungry hippos game.
Hide AdAdvertisement
Hide AdThis hilarious video shows residents in wheelchairs using a box on a stick to try and capture as many balls as they can while carers push them in and out just like how players push their hippos in to catch balls in the popular board game.
The Northants Telegraph shared some of Westhill Park's videos last month, the most popular of which had over 100,000 likes.
Westhill Park's lifestyle manager Hannah Kinloch has been making the videos with lifestyle assistant Sharon Kawonga and said: "It's keeping spirits high. We are trying to keep morale up."
Hannah said while residents don't always know what Tik Tok is recording clips for the platform has been keeping them entertained and the videos are a chance for families who cannot visit their loved ones to see what they've been getting up to at Westhill Park.

Hide AdShe said: "We do so much with our residents. It's nice to have something light hearted and a bit of fun."
If you're in Northamptonshire and have embraced Tik Tok during isolation, let me know at [email protected]. We'd love to share Northants' best videos!

Marijuana Impairment Tests for Drivers: A Work In Progress
The Maine Association of Dispensary Operators (MEADO) serves over 10,000 Mainers with a common age between 40 and 55 years old along with the eight medical marijuana dispensaries managed by DHHS. Collectively we employ 75 people and provide top shelf quality medicine to our patients, free of any harmful components during the cultivation process. We are proud in serving our communities and work closely with regulators and law enforcement to secure safe and dependable access to medical marijuana.
Medical marijuana can be prescribed under strict physician or physician assistant care under a 2009 law passed by Maine voters, enabling patients whose physicians believe they will benefit from the medical use of pot to access it from dispensaries. There is a limited list of conditions for which a physician or nurse practitioner may grant the use of medical cannabis. That list includes cancer, glaucoma, HIV/AIDS, hepatitis C, ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease), Crohn's disease, agitation of Alzheimer's disease, nail-patella syndrome, intractable pain, and PTSD.
MEADO backs the attempt to help fight against driving while under the influence of any substance, including cannabis. However, "per se" OUI limits, such as those used to determine if your impaired from alcohol, have shown not to be effective in determining if you are under the influence of cannabis, and should not be introduced. Scientifically sound roadside methods for determining impairment from marijuana does not exist today.
This is definitely one place where we should not "regulate cannabis like alcohol."
Alcohol is the one thing where there is a scientific accord about a blood-content level which tie in reliably to an unacceptable level of driver intoxication. And it is the only substance for which there is a nimble, safe, roadside structure to test a driver's Blood Alcohol Content usually after they have failed the Average Field Sobriety Tests.
The correlation halts there because with pot, signs of past use—including the presence of metabolites in the blood—do not correspond with actual current intoxication in the same way that is true for alcohol. If a blood level evaluation is used as other states have done, a marijuana user will likely test far above that average level, and possibly for as long as several weeks after recent intoxication, long after any side effects have subsided. Because of the way pot is kept in the body's fat cells and released slowly, blood tests will give a "false positive" more often than not.
Even the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) gave warning against the imposition of impairment standards for drugs other than alcohol, and it did so very recently. In a November 2014 a white paper entitled "Understanding the Limitations of Drug Test Information, Stating, and Testing Practices in Fatal Crashes," NHTSA researchers stated, "Current knowledge about the effects of drugs other than alcohol on driving abilities are faulty to make judgments about connections between drug use, driving performance, and crash risk."
Fortunately, while we wait for the science to catch up, there are other ways that the legislature could consider, including the following:
▪ Medical marijuana dispensaries and many others in this business already provide knowledge on safe marijuana practices, involving warnings about operating under the influence. All cannabis retailers should be authorized to provide the same type of education.
▪ Tax proceeds or some portion of the existing fees collected from medical cannabis caregivers could be dedicated to the construction of Public Service Announcements (PSAs). These and any other educational components should place a strong presences on being aware and preventing operating impaired.
▪ Current Field Sobriety Tests could be viewed to determine whether they appropriately measure real-time marijuana intoxication, and altered if any one of the three main FSTs (walk & turn, balance on one leg, horizontal eye tracking) fails to prove being under the influence of marijuana
No one wants intoxicated drivers on our roads.
Mainers must maintain keeping the roads safe by all reasonable precautions, and law enforcement would benefit from a clear and reliable scientific process to determine hazardous impairment. However, when this science is not available, we must defend against the production of a new and arbitrary way of criminalizing those who use marijuana medicinal or recreational responsibly. Otherwise, thousands of Mainers will abruptly be deemed a danger to our roadways when they are more than fine to operate a vehicle after taking a medical cannabis treatment the day or week before.

SOUTH AFRICA – National Institute of Communicable Diseases (NICD), the national public health institute of South Africa, has announced an unusual rise in respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) cases in infants that may be associated with higher than usual RSV circulation.
Respiratory Syncytial Virus is a leading cause of bronchiolitis and lower respiratory infections (LRTI) in infants, vulnerable young children and immunocompromised individuals with no existing efficient therapeutic that is estimated to affect 64 million people around the world every year.
According to Head of the National Institute of Communicable Diseases Professor Cheryl Cohen, LRTI is among the most common causes of death in young children in South Africa, it is estimated that between 178 000 and 443 000 children under the age of five will be infected with RSV annually.
Infants under six months of age, children with underlying chronic illness such as chronic lung conditions, heart disease or immunodeficiency along with infants born prematurely are at greatest risk of developing severe disease.
RSV is the most common cause of bronchiolitis and lower respiratory tract illness among young children. It is highly contagious and infection with RSV does not result in
permanent or long-term immunity and re-infections can occur.
RSV is a highly contagious virus spread by infected droplets produced when coughing, sneezing or kissing, by touching surfaces contaminated with the virus and then touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Moreover, children are often exposed to the virus at school.
The National Institute of Communicable Diseases highlighted preventive measures to curb the spread of the respiratory syncytial virus transmission including isolation of children with influenza-like symptoms and teaching children as well as adults looking after infants to practice sneeze and cough hygiene
In addition, NICD urged healthcare providers, clinicians and pediatric hospitals including intensive care units in South Africa to prepare and allocate adequate resources to respond to the anticipated surge in RSV cases as well as an increase in pediatric admissions during the 2022 RSV season.
A mathematical modelling study conducted by NICD in 2021 suggests that South Africa will see a third percent increase in RSV cases in children compared to the pre-pandemic period and that the age group will shift to a slightly older age group with more children aged six months to two years affected.
The modelling studies state that infants last year didn't really experience RSV season so they didn't develop immunity to the respiratory virus, highlighting that the immunity gap created over the last two years would lead to an unusually severe RSV season.
Although there is no vaccine to prevent RSV infection, several promising vaccine candidates are under development that would likely be cost-effective for South Africa as RSV-targeted interventions are likely to be an important component of infant mortality rate reduction strategies globally.
Meanwhile, the monoclonal antibody palivizumab administered monthly throughout the RSV season to children at high risk of severe RSV disease has been shown to be effective for prevention but high costs coupled with the need for monthly intramuscular injections throughout the RSV season limit its use.
Professor Cohen advised pregnant women to receive the available vaccine that protects their infants and ensure their babies get the long-acting monoclonal antibody administered monthly throughout the RSV season, noting that the strategies reduced RSV illness and hospitalization by 70 to 80% in trials.

text: Second Mixed Use Plan for Ventura Boulevard Gets OK REAL ESTATE By Shelly Garcia A second plan for a mixed-use residential project on Ventura Boulevard has passed a major hurdle. AvalonBay Communities Inc.'s project on the southeast corner of Noeline Avenue and Ventura Boulevard in Encino, was approved by the planning commission after about 18 months spent working with the community and the city to gain support for the idea. The commission's decision to green light the project was unanimous, said Larry Scott, regional vice president for AvalonBay. "This is a perfect mixed-use location," said Scott. "You're walking distance to the grocery store, walking distance to employment. It has all the characteristics of a mixed use, urban infill location." The project, located on a site that currently houses the Plaza del Sol shopping center, will include 137 one- and two-bedroom units of luxury rental housing and 12,000 feet of ground floor retail as currently designed. It will be called Avalon Encino. The specific design of the units has not yet been determined, but the exterior will be built in an Italian Mediterranean style and the complex will house amenities such as a pool, fitness facility, recreation center, media room and game room. "We really want it to be a resort atmosphere." Scott said the company has been actively seeking a site for a residential project in the San Fernando Valley for about three years. Avalon Bay will replace a shopping center that has been largely vacant, and was not listed on the market for sale when AvalonBay began discussions for the purchase with the private investors who had owned it for the past four years. Although the project did not require any zoning changes, the approval process was arduous, Scott said. The company held 22 meetings with the community, including two homeowner groups and the area's neighborhood council and revised the site plan five times from the original concept. Avalon Encino is the second mixed-use residential project to gain approval on Ventura Boulevard. The developers of the first site, also in Encino, currently have their entitled property on the market for sale. But despite the apparent interest in developing apartment units along Ventura Boulevard, Scott said he does not expect the Valley's most famous street to become a prominent residential address in the same way that other cities like New York or San Francisco have married commercial and residential real estate projects along major corridors. "Smart growth is a Utopian belief," Scott said, referring to the growing trend to create urban villages along commercial corridors. "I think the opposition will grow stronger as more projects are proposed." The idea behind "smart growth," is to place housing in close proximity to jobs and transportation, reducing the number of commuters and encouraging self-contained communities that provide amenities like restaurants and groceries for residents. But such projects in the Valley have often met with strenuous community opposition from homeowners who believe that apartment dwellings are too dense and will create more traffic for the neighborhood than would, say, a shopping center. AvalonBay is currently developing another mixed use project along the mid-Wilshire corridor. Universal Acceptance The Centrum, a 137,000-square-foot office building in Universal City, has been sold for $28 million. Jamison Properties, an L.A. based real estate investment firm with about 60 properties including numerous holdings along the Wilshire Corridor and several properties in Encino, among others, acquired the building, at 3575 Cahuenga Blvd. from EP Investment. The building is about 85 percent occupied, mostly by entertainment companies. Manfred Schaub, a broker with Cushman & Wakefield, represented the seller. Jamison represented itself in the transaction. Van Nuys Sales A Nearon Enterprises unit has divested two San Fernando Valley buildings in the 500,000-square foot master-planned business park in Van Nuys. Nearon Van Nuys Industrial LLC sold a 60,000-square-foot industrial building for $5.8 million. The building, at 7801 Hayvenhurst Ave., was sold to E & S; International Enterprises Corp., a distributor of consumer electronics. The second site, a 34,000-square-foot industrial property in The Commerce Center at Van Nuys Airport, was sold for $3.5 million. The buyer, City Art, is a non-profit art gallery. Mike Tingus and Randy Kobata, brokers with Lee & Associates' L.A. North division, represented Nearon in both deals. The buyer of the Hayvenhurst Avenue property was represented by Darren Cline and John DeGrinnis of Colliers Seeley. City Art was represented by Plaza Loans. Apartment Outlook Soaring home prices will boost demand for apartments during the second half of the year, according to a just released report from Marcus & Millichap. The report notes that the loss of jobs from the recent recession has not stemmed population growth in the Los Angeles area, and the growing population, coupled with the declining affordability of homes, will drive decreases in the apartment vacancy rates and increases in rental rates. About 16 apartment projects are expected to be completed this year in the San Fernando Valley, adding a total of 755 apartment units to the housing stock in the region. The report noted that there are only three large projects on the drawing board in the Valley for 2004. The balance of projects in the coming year are under 30 units in size. The limited supply of new housing stock is expected to result in a dip in the vacancy rate for apartments in the Valley to an average of 2.8 percent by year end. Vacancies are lowest in Granada Hills, Sherman Oaks and Chatsworth, the report said. Rental rates are expected to grow by 6 percent this year to an average of $1,133 a month in the Valley.

"Forgive and move on." I am sure you have heard these words before. Where? From wise people, gurus, mindfulness talks, compassion experts, social media influencers, motivational speakers, mental health providers, yoga teachers, Ayurveda practitioners, and even your own trusted circle of friends. Let's be honest; I have been preaching forgiveness for eons now. I am still all for forgiveness, but some things have changed.
I believe you can't treat "forgiveness" nonchalantly. It's not like the server brought out some wrong food order —paneer tikka masala instead of paneer makhani — and you try to do the right thing and say, "It' OK." In my meditations and deep inner work, I have come to a conclusion: I don't agree with the framing around forgiveness. It's the only path to peace and healing so hurry up!! This idea around forgiving feels limited. Because forgiveness is positioned as the gateway to our physical, emotional, and mental health, we feel might feel confused if we are stuck between anger and forgiveness. That space where you don't wish ill to the person that hurt you, but you aren't detached and ready to start on a clean slate either.
Most of us rush into forgiveness because we have been conditioned to believe it's the right thing to do.
"Good" people let go and move on. Mature folks keep the peace. As human beings, we have a deep desire to be accepted by others, so we will do whatever it takes. Sometimes, that means hurrying forgiveness. Sometimes, you might hear a "sorry" from the one who caused you pain. At that moment, you might say, "Apology accepted." But can we really manufacture forgiveness in an instant? Forgiveness can't mean glossing over the seriousness of an offense against you. The heartaches, the betrayal, the loss, the grief — you can't get over them in an instant.
I never got an apology from the person responsible for my illness, and I don't think I ever will. I have accepted the fact. I also recognize that I rushed forgiveness to free myself from the hatred, resentment, anger, pain, grief, and victimhood. Honestly, sometimes you get tired of the inner heaviness and loneliness, and you want to believe you have forgiven those who have hurt you and move on. But forgiveness isn't black and white.
"Be the bigger person," a client's brother told her when she refused to attend a wedding in the family. Why? Because her uncle — the man who raped her when she was a little girl — was going to be at this family gathering and she was feeling triggered. She brought up her hesitation with her siblings. Instead of hearing her out and seeking justice, they asked her to "forgive" the old man and move on. "He is old and sick. You are in a good relationship. Can you not keep bringing up something from the past at every family event?" Unanimous word choice.
She was coerced into forgiving before she was ready. She was told to feel something when she didn't feel it. She wasn't given the opportunity to process her pain. How do you think things panned out when she found herself face-to-face with her perpetrator? How could my client forgive when she felt wronged and had found no closure? How could she let go when she felt ghosted by those closest to her? She returned from the trip feeling upset with herself for still holding a grudge.
I am not a psychotherapist or a social worker or a mental health counselor. But as an Ayurvedic counselor, I work with clients who might be struggling with health and productivity issues, and it often ties into their unhealed trauma. Ayurveda teaches us that high anxiety and nervousness are a sign of vata imbalance. Anger, criticism, and judgment tell us that pitta dosha might be vitiated. A person exhibiting signs of detachment, disconnect, and low motivation might be showing kapha dosha imbalance. Ayurveda also talks about the impact of our diet and lifestyle on our mental health. Our emotional response and coping capabilities are often a reflection of our Ayurvedic constitution, prakriti, and our imbalances, which is vikruti.
Forgiveness is complicated. There is no on and off switch. I can say with confidence (from my own experience) that saying you have forgiven someone isn't the same as actually forgiving someone. Much like grief, forgiveness comes in waves. There are days when I feel nothing towards the man responsible for my compromised health. I have helped his family because as a healer, I vowed to be there for those who are sick. It's my dharma. I can show up detached, focused, and unfettered. Then I might watch something on television or read words that feel too personable, and I get triggered. In all honesty, I feel annoyed with myself for forgiving this man prematurely.
While I don't dwell on the hurt and his name doesn't feel like a poisonous sting any longer, I don't think I can ever fully forgive this person. Forgiveness can't mean denying the wrong done to you. I am in this healthy space where I don't obsess about how he is able to thrive, and I must always be watchful of my health. But I'm not ready to excuse his offense. That said, his existence doesn't bother me on a daily basis. For some of us, forgiveness might be a gray area where you detach from the wrong just enough to not be consumed by it but never forget or condone the wrong done to you.
"Your sacred space is where you can find yourself over and over again."

The Cashmere or Cachemire is a pregious natural fiber generated by the hair of the Hircus Goat, more commonly known as cashmere goats (Kashmir Goats), these animals are raised in countries like Iran, Russia, Afghanistan, Turkey, and India. His name comes from the Kashmir, an historic region which is now located between India, Pakistan, and China, where it's been exported from the first time at the beginning of XIXth century. The most beautiful and precious Cashmere comes from the high lands of inner Mongolia close to China, and it distinguishes itself for the high thinness of its fiber, its length and uniformity. In the outer part of Mongolia, in the northern desert of Gobi, there's the production of the so called "brown" fiber, while in the inner part of Mongolia the more precious "white" fiber is produced.
It's a luxury fiber of excellency, its hand is soft and silky, and grants a warm and soft sensation. The thinner part is the hair under the mantle and it's called duvet, which is the soft and woolly layer, the thicker part with rigid and rough hair comes from the outer mantle and it's called giarre. When it's time to harvest the hair from the animal, they get combed during the moulting season during the Spring times. Each animal normally produces about between 100 to 200 gr of hair.
One of the features of the Cashmere is its softness, it is soft and delicate on the skin, and this is why it cannot irritate anyone. This is one of the key points that distinguishes pure and original cashmere from any other imitation. It has three more features to list: it is capable of maintaining warm temperatures thanks to its thermo regulating characteristics, allowing you to wear it in both Winter and Summer, the second feature is its hygroscopicity: Cashmere absorbs humidity thanks to its breathability. The third feature is the antistatic property, which allows it to not attract dust, this guarantees an high level of hygiene all the time.

Christian Atsu's moving Newcastle United story – and his lasting legacy
and live on Freeview channel 276
The winger – who was killed by the earthquake which devastated parts of Turkey and Syria earlier this month – gave his best years to the club after joining, initially on loan, from Chelsea in the summer of 2016.
At the time, Rafa Benitez was looking for players who could help the club win promotion from the Championship.

Hide AdAtsu did just that, scoring five times in the 2016/17 season. His first goal for the club away to Rotherham United was particularly memorable. Atsu took the ball on the right, and cut inside on to his left foot before unleashing an unstoppable shot into the top left-hand corner.
The Ghana international went on to play a lot more football in the Premier League.
Off the pitch, softly-spoken Atsu was one of the most genuine and approachable players I've known in 23 years covering the club.
Yet his demeanour hid the hardship of his early life. Born in a village near Accra, on January 12, 1992, Atsu had a tough childhood.

Hide AdFour years ago, a few reporters were invited to speak to Atsu about his charity work in his homeland ahead of a dinner on Tyneside.
Atsu – who was an ambassador for Arms Around The Child – broke down in tears as he told his story at United's training ground.
"It's hard to go back and see the country I left behind," said Atsu at the time. "You never forget the person you were before you left. I have friends there who knew me from the beginning. They know the start I had, they know the person I was.
"They keep telling me 'you believed in God, and we're pleased for you'. Every time when they call me, they say 'you did everything to survive'. I have survived, but I don't forget.
Hide AdAdvertisement
Hide Ad"It's hard in Africa. You cannot imagine what it is like to see the kids with no money, no house, with nowhere to go."
Everyone inside the room was deeply moved by Atsu's story.
Father-of-three Atsu – who played under Eddie Howe at Bournemouth – was passionate about helping children in Ghana. He had never forgotten his roots.
On the field, he progressed at Newcastle, but he had a difficult final season at St James's Park. Atsu was left out of the club's 25-man Premier League squad for the first half of the 2020/21 season.
I messaged him after he was named in the squad for the second half of the campaign following the deadline day departure of DeAndre Yedlin. Atsu replied saying he didn't know he was back in the fold – and then added a praying emoji.
Hide AdAdvertisement
Hide AdSadly, he never got to make a farewell appearance for the club that season – and his association with the club quietly ended in the summer of 2021.
He was gone but never forgotten, and United fans were praying for him after the earthquake which had collapsed his Hatay apartment building hours after he had scored for Hatayspor.
Atsu will be remembered not just for his footballing exploits for club and country, but also for what he did off the pitch.
Put simply, he tried to do his bit to make the world a better place.
RIP, Christian.
