Arrests highlight 'prevalent' problem of human trafficking in Utah
Salt Lake County Sheriff's Office
SALT LAKE CITY — Tara Pinnock was supposed to be in court Tuesday in Connecticut, requesting to be put in a program generally reserved for low-risk offenders.
Instead, she remained in the Salt Lake County Jail accused of forcing a kidnapped Manhattan woman into a cross-country trek of prostitution before the 23-year-old finally escaped in Salt Lake City.
Tammie Garcia Atkin, the victim witness coordinator for the Utah Attorney General's Office, said human trafficking is more prevalent than most people realize.
"I think people would be very surprised to learn that it's very prevalent here in Utah — and not just sex trafficking, that's not the only kind of trafficking," she said, noting that domestic servitude and "agriculture trafficking" — forcing immigrants to work from farm to farm — also exist.
In January, University of Utah students gathered to listen to several people talk about human trafficking problems in the U.S. today, including a 14-year-old girl who ended up in a sex trafficking ring.
Recently, the Utah Attorney General's Office arrested Victor Rax, accused of dealing drugs and trafficking teenage boys in Utah for years. Last week, the number of charges against him was increased to 63, including aggravated sexual abuse of a child, aggravated human trafficking for forced labor involving a child, forcible sodomy, child endangerment, witness tampering and drug possession with intent to distribute. Authorities have identified 16 victims whom they believe Rax abused.
"(Human trafficking) is more prevalent than we'd like to believe. Human trafficking is second only to drug trafficking in profitability and it is the fastest growing criminal enterprise right now," Atkin said. "Modern-day slavery does exist."
Human trafficking is growing because it's a low-risk, high-return criminal enterprise, she said. Young girls and women forced into prostitution are often very vulnerable and don't have a lot of resources. They don't have strong family ties who would immediately recognize if they went missing, Atkin said, and they're generally too afraid to try to escape or are untrusting of police.
"Just because somebody has bars around them isn't the only way of being imprisoned," she said.
Atkin believes the number of cases being seen in Utah is due to Salt Lake City being a crossroads to other areas where human trafficking is a bigger problem, such as Las Vegas. Pinnock and Jean Joseph were reportedly heading farther west when they were arrested.
In the latest episode of human trafficking to make headlines in Salt Lake City, Pinnock, 24, of Albany, N.Y., was arrested Monday for investigation of human trafficking. U.S. marshals also placed a detainer on her. Joseph, 26, of Valley Stream, N.Y., was also booked into the Salt Lake County Jail for investigation of human trafficking, kidnapping, aggravated assault and rape.
Police believe Joseph kidnapped a 23-year-old woman in New York about two or three weeks ago near the Port Authority.
"Joseph reportedly struck the victim three times, causing the victim to lose consciousness," a Salt Lake County Jail report states. "The victim sustained a very large distended swollen eye/facial area and a half-inch scar."
When she woke up after being beaten to unconsciousness, she was in Pennsylvania, according to police. The group continued moving west, and she told police she was sexually assaulted twice in Chicago. The group also made stops in Denver, Grand Junction, Colo., and Salt Lake City, where the woman was "forced to engage in prostitution" in each of those cities, the report states.
The woman told police she tried to escape while in Denver but was unsuccessful. In Salt Lake City on Sunday, the woman tried to escape again and call 911 with a cellphone she had, and then hid until officers arrived.

Can Trauma Trigger Violent Crime in Mentally Ill?
Posted 12 days ago by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, July 13, 2016 – People with serious mental illness who are victims of violence or exposed to stressful events are more likely to engage in a violent crime in the week following the trauma, a new study contends. Stressful experiences also affect people without psychiatric disorders, but not to the same extent, the researchers said. Some stressful events – such as being violently victimized, injured in an accident, losing one's parents or self-harming – act as "triggers," said study co-author Dr. Seena Fazel. He is a professor of forensic psychiatry at the University of Oxford in England. Experiencing one of these events increases the risk of committing a violent criminal act within a week of the trigger, especially in people with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, Fazel said. People diagnosed with these conditions have higher rates of criminal convictions than the general ... Read more

Mentally Ill Still Gain Illegal Possession of Guns, Study Shows
Posted 8 Jun 2016 by Drugs.com
TUESDAY, June 7, 2016 – Almost two-thirds of violent gun crime arrests among the mentally ill were people who were already legally prohibited from having a firearm, a new study from Florida reveals. And close to one-third of the suicides carried out by the mentally ill were among people who weren't legally allowed to possess a firearm, the study found. "That's a failure of the enforcement mechanism," said study lead author Jeffrey Swanson. That troubling finding reflects a problem with the criteria for identifying individuals at risk, added Swanson, a professor with Duke University School of Medicine's department of psychiatry and behavioral sciences. Mental illness causes only a small fraction of gun violence in the United States, around 3 to 5 percent, said Colleen Barry, a professor at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in Baltimore. The Duke study "does bring new ... Read more

Is Smoking During Pregnancy Tied to Offspring's Schizophrenia Risk?
Posted 27 May 2016 by Drugs.com
FRIDAY, May 27, 2016 – Smoking during pregnancy may increase the risk that a child could develop schizophrenia, new research suggests. "This is, so far, the largest study to show an association between prenatal nicotine exposure and schizophrenia," said study author Dr. Solja Niemela. She is a professor of psychiatry and addiction medicine at the University of Oulu, Lapland Hospital District, in Rovaniemi, Finland. Although the study didn't prove cause and effect, the finding is the first to be based on blood sample analyses that provided evidence of nicotine exposure in the womb, rather than on less reliable maternal recollections of smoking behavior, Niemela added. Still, she added that "the causes of schizophrenia are multifaceted." "It is likely that prenatal smoking exposure alone does not cause schizophrenia," said Niemela. "Rather, there is [probably] an interplay of genetic and ... Read more

FDA Medwatch Alert: Olanzapine: Drug Safety Communication - FDA Warns About Rare But Serious Skin Reactions
Posted 10 May 2016 by Drugs.com
ISSUE: FDA is warning that the antipsychotic medicine olanzapine can cause a rare but serious skin reaction that can progress to affect other parts of the body. FDA is adding a new warning to the drug labels for all olanzapine-containing products that describes this severe condition known as Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS). A search of the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database identified 23 cases of DRESS reported with olanzapine worldwide since 1996, when the first olanzapine-containing product was approved. FAERS includes only reports submitted to FDA, so there are likely to be additional cases about which FDA is unaware. One patient taking olanzapine experienced DRESS and died; however, this patient was taking multiple medicines that could also have contributed to death (see the Data Summary section of the Drug Safety Communication for more ...

FDA Medwatch Alert: Aripiprazole (Abilify, Abilify Maintena, Aristada): Drug Safety Communication - FDA Warns About New Impulse-control Problems
Posted 5 May 2016 by Drugs.com
ISSUE: FDA is warning that compulsive or uncontrollable urges to gamble, binge eat, shop, and have sex have been reported with the use of the antipsychotic drug aripiprazole (Abilify, Abilify Maintena, Aristada, and generics). These uncontrollable urges were reported to have stopped when the medicine was discontinued or the dose was reduced. These impulse-control problems are rare, but they may result in harm to the patient and others if not recognized. Although pathological gambling is listed as a reported side effect in the current aripiprazole drug labels, this description does not entirely reflect the nature of the impulse-control risk FDA identified. In addition, FDA has become aware of other compulsive behaviors associated with aripiprazole, such as compulsive eating, shopping, and sexual actions. These compulsive behaviors can affect anyone who is taking the medicine. As a ... Read more

Early Emotional Support May Help Kids Manage Feelings Later
Posted 26 Apr 2016 by Drugs.com
TUESDAY, April 26, 2016 – Preschoolers given higher levels of emotional support from moms, dads or other caregivers tend to have better emotional health during their childhood and teen years, a new study suggests. The researchers saw increased growth in a brain region known as the hippocampus in children who were highly supported at preschool age. The hippocampus is involved in emotion, learning and memory formation. Reductions in hippocampus volume have been linked with worse emotional health and unhealthy coping, the study authors said. "Support during the preschool period seems critical to healthy brain development, and healthy brain development is important for healthy emotional functioning," said study leader Dr. Joan Luby. She's a professor of child psychiatry at Washington University in St. Louis. The researchers reported that they didn't see changes in the volume of the ... Read more

No Link Between Anti-Smoking Drugs, Mental Health Issues: Study
Posted 23 Apr 2016 by Drugs.com
FRIDAY, April 22, 2016 – The anti-smoking drugs Chantix (varenicline) and Wellbutrin (bupropion) don't appear to raise the risk of serious mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety and suicidal thoughts, a new study suggests. "Clinical guidelines recommend that the most effective way to give up smoking is smoking cessation medication and counseling. However, smokers do not use these services enough, in part due to concerns that the medications may not be safe," said lead author Dr. Robert Anthenelli, professor of psychiatry at University of California, San Diego. The new study, published April 22 in The Lancet, should help ease those concerns for patients, the researchers said. The study was requested by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration due to concerns about the safety of the drugs used to help people quit smoking. Funding was provided by drug makers Pfizer (which makes ... Read more

MS Patients May Be Prone to Other Chronic Illnesses, Study Finds
Posted 9 Mar 2016 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, March 9, 2016 – People with multiple sclerosis (MS) are more likely to have other chronic health problems than those without the nervous system disorder, a new study indicates. Researchers looked at how common several chronic conditions – high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, heart disease, chronic lung disease, epilepsy, fibromyalgia, inflammatory bowel disease, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia – were in nearly 23,400 people newly diagnosed with MS and more than 116,600 people without MS. The MS patients had higher rates of all the conditions, with high cholesterol being the exception. Their rates of mental illness, particularly depression, were also high. Nineteen percent of MS patients and 9 percent of those without MS had depression, the study found. For many of the chronic conditions, there were significant gender differences. High ... Read more

Psychosis Plus Pot a Bad Mix: Study
Posted 4 Mar 2016 by Drugs.com
THURSDAY, March 3, 2016 – People diagnosed with psychosis will probably have a longer, harder struggle to maintain their mental health if they're regular marijuana users, British researchers report. And those who just experienced their first episode of psychotic illness are 50 percent more likely to need subsequent hospitalization for their condition if they use marijuana, according to findings published online March 3 in the journal BMJ Open. They also spend longer periods in the hospital, averaging 35 more days in mental health wards during a five-year period than those with psychosis who don't use pot. Finally, marijuana users don't seem to respond to anti-psychotic medications as well as non-users, said lead researcher Rashmi Patel, a clinical lecturer with the Department of Psychosis Studies at King's College London.

Schizophrenia Tied to Much Higher Risk of Suicide Attempts
Posted 19 Feb 2016 by Drugs.com
THURSDAY, Feb. 18, 2016 – Schizophrenia patients are at significantly increased risk of attempting suicide, a new study finds. Researchers analyzed data from more than 21,700 Canadians, including 101 who had been diagnosed with schizophrenia. About 39 percent of people (two in five) with schizophrenia had attempted suicide, compared with about 3 percent of people without the mental health disorder. "Even after taking into account most of the known risk factors for suicide attempts, those with schizophrenia had six times the odds of having attempted suicide in comparison to those without schizophrenia," study author Esme Fuller-Thomson said in a University of Toronto news release. Fuller-Thomson is a professor of social work at the university. When researchers focused only on the 101 individuals with schizophrenia, they found that "women and those with a history of drug or alcohol abuse ... Read more

Scientists Uncover Clues to Origins of Schizophrenia
Posted 27 Jan 2016 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, Jan. 27, 2016 – Some people might develop schizophrenia when a normal process of brain development goes haywire in adolescence and early adulthood, Harvard researchers report. Everyone undergoes what is called "synaptic pruning" as they move into adulthood, explained study author Steven McCarroll, director of genetics for the Broad Institute's Stanley Center for Psychiatric Research and an associate professor of genetics at Harvard Medical School in Boston. It's how extra brain cells and synapses (the junctions where nerve signals cross from one brain cell to the next) are eliminated in the cerebral cortex, to increase the efficiency of function, he said. But a gene that contributes to synaptic pruning may increase a person's risk of schizophrenia if certain mutations cause things to go wrong, McCarroll and his colleagues explained. "Somehow, this biological process becomes ... Read more

Mouse Study May Offer Clues to Mysteries of Schizophrenia
Posted 6 Jan 2016 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, Jan. 6, 2016 – Results of experiments with mice may help shed light on some of the harder-to-treat symptoms of schizophrenia in humans, a new study suggests. Schizophrenia is a severe mental illness that affects about one in every 100 adults worldwide, according to background notes with the study. Researchers at Columbia University Medical Center in New York City found that the loss of certain cells in a previously unexplored area of the brain's memory center may be linked with the disabling disease. Specifically, the investigators said a decrease in the number of so-called inhibitory neurons in a tiny area of the hippocampus may play a role in stubborn symptoms such as social withdrawal, low levels of motivation and emotional problems. It's long been thought that schizophrenia originates in the hippocampus, the brain region that handles memory. Nearly every part of the ... Read more

Bullying Can Leave Lasting Mental Scars
Posted 9 Dec 2015 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, Dec. 9, 2015 – Bullying can lead to lasting psychological effects for both victims and tormentors, researchers report. More than 20 percent of children who have suffered bullying are prone to depression serious enough to require medical help by their late 20s, researchers from Finland said. "Frequent victimization at age 8 is associated with adult psychiatric disorders needing treatment," said lead researcher Dr. Andre Sourander, a professor in the department of child psychiatry at the University of Turku. Besides depression, researchers found that bullying or being bullied were associated with psychosis, anxiety, and drug and alcohol abuse. "We need to understand the importance of early peer and school experiences for children," Sourander said. "We should integrate a mental health perspective to anti-bullying campaigns, because early intervention can prevent long-term ... Read more

Drug Helps Those With Tough-to-Treat Schizophrenia: Study
Posted 25 Nov 2015 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, Nov. 25, 2015 – The drug clozapine reduces symptoms in schizophrenia patients who don't benefit from other antipsychotic medications, a new study indicates. The finding, culled from an analysis of Medicaid data on more than 6,200 patients with treatment-resistant schizophrenia, was published recently in the American Journal of Psychiatry. "These results give clinicians important guidance for how to help an extremely vulnerable group of people," said study author Dr. T. Scott Stroup, a professor of psychiatry at Columbia University Medical Center in New York City and a research psychiatrist at New York State Psychiatric Institute. "By helping individuals with treatment-resistant schizophrenia get effective treatment sooner, we can expect better outcomes," Stroup said in a Columbia news release.

Almost 1 in 10 Americans Has Lifelong Drug Problem
Posted 18 Nov 2015 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, Nov. 18, 2015 – Nearly one in 10 Americans has some type of lifelong drug use disorder, a new federal government survey finds. But only a quarter of them get the treatment they need, researchers said. The findings stem from a large U.S. National Institutes of Health survey. It's the first survey based on updated mental health guidelines that set a higher bar for diagnosing drug addiction than previous guidelines. "But the seriousness and persistence of the situation doesn't appear to have changed all that drastically since our last look at this," said study lead author Bridget Grant. "What we see," Grant added, "is that a little over 23 million Americans are directly affected with a lifelong problem. And many more are affected when you consider that the issue involves not just the user but also the user's family and social network. And on top of that we also see that ... Read more

God does arithmetic.
A great part of its [higher arithmetic] theories derives an additional charm from the peculiarity that important propositions, with the impress of simplicity on them, are often easily discovered by induction, and yet are of so profound a character that we cannot find the demonstrations till after many vain attempts; and even then, when we do succeed, it is often by some tedious and artificial process, while the simple methods may long remain concealed.

It is not knowledge, but the act of learning, not possession but the act of getting there, which grants the greatest enjoyment. When I have clarified and exhausted a subject, then I turn away from it, in order to go into darkness again. The never-satisfied man is so strange; if he has completed a structure, then it is not in order to dwell in it peacefully, but in order to begin another. I imagine the world conqueror must feel thus, who, after one kingdom is scarcely conquered, stretches out his arms for others.

A floral shop's business is blooming in preparation for Mother's Day.
Greg Orafino owner of Florafino's on Maple Avenue says that Mother's Day is one of the busiest floral holidays and he gives customers advice when choosing flowers for their loved ones.
"A lot of times when we send to grandmothers for instance they might be in nursing facility or they might be in smaller apartment so don't send something huge send something that appropriate to the size," said Orafino.
Orafino says there's a lot of planning that goes into making Mother's Day a success for his shop as well as the customers.
" Right after Easter and Valentine's Day are done we start planning Mother's Day right away because you have to get all of your flowers ordered to get the best product, the best quality at the best prices of course, " said Orafino.
People from all over the country can send flowers arrangements to loved ones in Muskingum County by placing an order at Florafino's.com . If you live in town Florafino's delivers right to your doorstep.

How Diligent Is Your Due Diligence?: Anti-Fraud Programmes Are A Risk Management 'Must'
Investor trust is important to the success of any investment vehicle, but is particularly key in hedge funds. Hedge funds depend heavily on investor trust, relying on referrals to gain investors and offering relatively limited transparency into their performance and operations. The overarching quest for better-than-market (alpha) returns tends to make hedge fund investors willing to accept the higher risk and limited disclosure inherent in hedge funds. But even for these investors, a cautious policy of "Trust, but verify" may be in order, particularly in the area of fraud risk and prevention.

Urethral Syndrome
- Author: Martha K Terris, MD, FACS; Chief Editor: Edward David Kim, MD, FACS more...
Urethral syndrome was originally described as urinary frequency and dysuria without demonstrable infection. As a diagnosis, urethral syndrome (also known as frequency-dysuria syndrome) is controversial, and the term (coined by Powell and Powell in 1949) may be outdated, partially because of the lack of consensus on specific diagnostic criteria and overlap with other diseases such as interstitial cystitis and painful bladder syndrome. Up to one quarter of patients presenting with lower urinary tract symptoms may have urethral syndrome.
Urethral syndrome is characterized by urinary frequency, dysuria, and suprapubic discomfort without any objective finding of urological abnormalities. It is also characterized by sterile urine culture results and urinary frequency that is typically worse during the day than during the night. The dysuria and constant suprapubic discomfort is partially relieved by voiding. Patients with urethral syndrome may also report difficulty in starting urination, a slow stream, and a feeling of incomplete emptying of the bladder.
Most patients diagnosed with urethral syndrome are women, typically aged 30-50 years. Vaginal discharge and vaginal lesions must be excluded. The patient's history is important, as the diagnosis of urethral syndrome is one of exclusion.
Etiology and Pathophysiology
The etiology of urethral syndrome is unknown. Historically, urethral stenosis was believed to cause urethral syndrome. Currently theorized etiologies include hormonal imbalances, inflammation of Skene glands and the paraurethral glands (the "female prostate"), a reaction to certain foods, environmental chemicals (eg, douches, bubble bath, soaps, contraceptive gels, condoms), hypersensitivity following urinary tract infection, and traumatic sexual intercourse.
Regardless of the initial pain-causing event, patients with urethral syndrome have both involuntary spasms and voluntary tightening of the pelvic musculature during the painful episode, which, in addition to any residual irritant or reinjury, starts a vicious circle of worsening dysfunction of the pelvic floor musculature. In many cases, the original cause of the pain has healed, but the pelvic floor dysfunction persists and is worsened by the patient's anxiety and frustration with the condition.
The exact incidence of urethral syndrome is unknown because of a lack of consensus in diagnosis.
Urethral syndrome is not a fatal condition; however, the urinary hesitancy, frequency, and dysuria characterized by the syndrome can greatly impair quality of life, as follows:
As a result of the unrelenting symptoms, many patients with urethral syndrome have concomitant depression, anxiety, or other secondary psychological morbidities caused by the condition; the coexistence of neurosis has prompted many physicians to categorize urethral syndrome as a psychosomatic illness
Many patients with urethral syndrome seek out multiple physicians in order to secure symptom relief and are at risk for polypharmacy and narcotic abuse
Race-, Sex, and Age-related Demographics
Urethral syndrome is more common in females than in males, and is more common in white women in westernized societies than in women of other races or groups.[1] Patients diagnosed with urethral syndrome are typically 13-70 years of age.

Defense Acquisitions:
Department of Defense Actions on Program Manager Empowerment and Accountability
GAO-08-62R: Published: Nov 9, 2007. Publicly Released: Nov 9, 2007.

Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
In November 2005, we issued a report on the environment within which the Department of Defense (DOD) program managers perform their work. We identified areas where program managers believe they are insufficiently empowered to execute programs, and therefore, because much is beyond their control, accountability is difficult. We also compared department policies and practices to those of leading commercial companies we visited and discussed actions DOD could take to improve program manager accountability, while also providing them with timely support as they manage the development of weapon systems. We recommended that DOD take a number of actions to ensure program managers are well positioned to successfully execute acquisitions and be held accountable. The John Warner National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2007 directed the Secretary of Defense to develop a comprehensive strategy for enhancing the role of DOD program managers in developing and carrying out defense acquisition programs and to revise guidance for major defense acquisition programs to address the qualifications, resources, responsibilities, tenure, and accountability of program managers for the program development and execution periods. In addition, GAO was directed to report on the actions taken by the Secretary of Defense to implement the requirements of the Act. To identify DOD actions to implement the Act, we met with DOD officials and reviewed documents they provided to determine what actions were planned to address and implement the congressional mandate, including DOD's required strategy. We reviewed existing DOD policies, directives, and guidance on the qualifications, resources, responsibilities, authority, tenure, and accountability of program managers. Finally, we made extensive use of our prior work in this and other related areas. We conducted our work from January to September 2007 in accordance with generally accepted government auditing standards.
As part of DOD's strategy to enhance the role of program managers in carrying out its major weapon system acquisitions, the department has established a policy that requires formal agreements among program managers, their acquisition executives, and the user community intended to set forth common program goals. In addition, as part of a new strategy for program manager empowerment and accountability, DOD plans a variety of actions to enhance development opportunities, provide more incentives, and arrange knowledge-sharing opportunities. For example, DOD intends to increase "just-in-time" training, establish a formal mentoring program, and establish program management forums. The department also acknowledges that any actions taken to improve accountability must be based on a foundation whereby program managers can launch and manage programs toward greater performance, rather than focusing on maintaining support and funding for individual programs. This foundation should include an overarching strategy and decision-making processes that prioritize programs based on a balanced match between customer needs and available department resources. Within its strategy and other reports, DOD has highlighted several initiatives that, if adopted and implemented properly, could provide such a foundation. For example, the new Concept Decision Point initiative, guidance for Time-Defined Acquisitions, and the establishment of Configuration Steering Boards are all designed to enable more informed decisions by key department leaders well ahead of a program's start, decisions that provide a closer match between each program's requirements and the department's resources. DOD acquisition leaders stated that any improvements to program managers' performance hinge on the success of these departmental initiatives.
