Anne Hummert, 91, considered the mother of the radio soap opera, created the first eminently successful one, "Just Plain Bill," in 1933 and followed with the even longer-lasting "Helen Trent." She subsequently brought into existence such classics as "Backstage Wife," "Stella Dallas," "Young Widder Brown," "Lorenzo Jones" and the evening programs "Mr. Keen," "Mystery Theater" and "Mr. Chameleon."
A resident of New York City, she died in her 5th Avenue apartment July 5.
Radio writing did not come as a brainstorm, she told the Tribune in a 1949 interview.
"I worked hard," she said. "I worked everything over and over until it was acceptable."
What she perfected were dramatic techniques that allowed the listener to catch the thread of the story, follow its development and invest in its suspense. This took effort, she found, but resulted in almost instant success for the new genre. "Just Plain Bill" was quickly copied by half a dozen other programs. "Helen Trent" was first tried on WGN and then went to the network.
Mrs. Hummert, a magna cum laude graduate of Goucher College, wrote obituaries for the Baltimore Sun in the summers while going to school and hoped to get into journalism. She eventually moved to Chicago, however, and in the late 1920s got a job as an assistant copywriter with the Blackett, Sample & Hummert advertising agency.
Agency partner Frank Hummert became her mentor and later her husband. Together, they formed Hummert Radio Features and moved their firm to New York in the mid-1930s.
She created the concepts and story lines for the soap operas, so named, many believe, because they were often sponsored by soap product manufacturers. She kept a hand in hiring the writers, script editors and actors.
When TV soaps started replacing radio ones, she and her late husband retired and traveled.
Survivors include two granddaughters, Pamela Ashenhurst Pigoni and Anne Jeskey; and two great-grandchildren.
Services were held in Graceland Cemetery.

Have You Seen This Illusion? It Turns Out It Can Define Your Age
December 6, 2018 09:18 By Fabiosa
An optical illusion isn't only a fun thing but also an opportunity to check some mental aspects and to observe yourself from a different angle. For instance, you are given a task to see a particular number of objects or mark which image you saw first.
READ ALSO: Puzzling Optical Illusion With Three Kids And One Adult Watching Them
There's a famous sketch called "My Wife and My Mother-in-Law." Its origins haven't been identified yet; however, it is approximated that it appeared in Germany at the end of the XIX century. And it was published in an American magazine in 1915.
The task was to find the portraits of a young woman and an older one. It was pretty easy, everyone managed to do that. However, some people saw the beautiful girl first and others saw the old lady. Australian researchers decided to study the responses of people from different age groups.
READ ALSO: Is It A Cat Or A Crow? Even Google Got Fooled By This Image!
The results were interesting. The people polled who were under 30 years old saw a young woman, and the ones over 30 saw the "mother-in-law." The researchers have suggested that:
Own-age biases affect subconscious face perception.
Whose face did you see first? And how does it correlate with your age? We aspire to have statistics of our own, so, please, share your results.
And here's one more interesting example of an optical illusion we can offer. Have you found the cat?

Each Friday I pick a song–new, old, borrowed, blue–that's been on my mind and in my ears, and write a short post about it.
This is "Can't Cut Loose" by Erin Rae:
Erin Rae sang with Hiss Golden Messenger on a few songs of their set at End of the Road this year, and Hiss Golden Messenger said we should definitely check out her own set later in the weekend, so I took their advice. Her songs are basically all beautiful country songs in the same vein as "Can't Cut Loose," and that's no bad thing at all. She put in a plea from the stage for people to crowd surf, but it was early on a Sunday afternoon and nobody did, which I still think is a shame.

Genetic predisposition to liver problems or certain autoimmune diseases often correlate to higher rates of diabetes. This is likely because proper insulin response is handled by the pancreas and liver, so problems here could affect the body's normal response. Studies have linked certain autoimmune disease and leaky gut syndrome with higher instances of diabetes also, so this correlation is logical as well.
Most of those foods are refined, processed starches and sugars. Lots of diets place people on a restricted plan that doesn't allow the refined, processed starches and sugars, and people lose weight, regain good BG control and feel better. However, in most cases, the weight comes back and weight creeps up and BG begins rising again due to the inability to sustain many of these diets.
Although the relationship between magnesiumand diabetes has been studied for decades, we still don't fully understand it. Low magnesium may worsen blood sugar control in type 2 diabetes. Scientists say that it interrupts insulin secretion in the pancreas and builds insulin resistance in the body's tissues. And evidence suggests that a magnesium deficiency may contribute to some diabetes complications. People who get more magnesium in their diet (by eating whole grains, nuts, and green leafy vegetables) have a lower risk of type 2 diabetes.
With that in mind, let's take a look at some of the best herbs that lower blood sugar, along with a few spices thrown in, to give you a more comprehensive list. Please note that while we normally do not use animal studies to support any dietary supplement, several herbs like garlic and ginger are considered 'food' and so, are used traditionally by cultures across the world in their daily diet for their additional medical benefits. So human lab research studies on these are not always available. You can check all available studies under 'References' at the end of the article.
It's astounding to read that this blog promotes eating salami, sausage, and bacon which the World Health Organization has designated all three a Class 2 carcinogen. While most of the information that you shared on this topic may help diabetic patients and those who are pre-diabetic, it's important to look at these diets as to not only the type of fat but the quality of the fat and how processed they are; only then can we understand that there are two separate kinds of carbs, there are two separate kinds of fats, and those are fats and carbs that are processed. When you have processed fats and processed carbs, the rate of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancer rates skyrocket. So it's not just fats that we should consider eating or carbs that we should consider, it's the kinds of fats and the kinds of carbs that should be scrutinized thoroughly to get a better understanding of exactly what is healthy for the diet for people both young and old.
Diabetes has grown to "epidemic" proportions, and the latest statistics revealed by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention state that 30.3 million Americans have diabetes, including the 7.2 million people who weren't even aware of it. Diabetes is affecting people of all ages, including 132,000 children and adolescents younger than 18 years old. (2)
Although a defect in mitochondrial function is associated with extremes of insulin resistance in skeletal muscle (30), this does not appear to be relevant to the etiology of type 2 diabetes. No defect is present in early type 2 diabetes but rather is directly related to ambient plasma glucose concentration (31). Observed rates of mitochondrial ATP production can be modified by increasing or decreasing plasma fatty acid concentration (32,33). Additionally, the onset of insulin stimulation of mitochondrial ATP synthesis is slow, gradually increasing over 2 h, and quite distinct from the acute onset of insulin's metabolic effects (34). Although it remains possible that secondary mitochondrial effects of hyperglycemia and excess fatty acids exist, there is no evidence for a primary mitochondrial defect underlying type 2 diabetes.
Dental care is therefore even more important for diabetic patients than for healthy individuals. Maintaining the teeth and gum healthy is done by taking some preventing measures such as regular appointments at a dentist and a very good oral hygiene. Also, oral health problems can be avoided by closely monitoring the blood sugar levels. Patients who keep better under control their blood sugar levels and diabetes are less likely to develop oral health problems when compared to diabetic patients who control their disease moderately or poorly.
It's not just easy, but also tasty to add spices and herbs that lower blood sugar to your diet. Most of these can be used in everyday recipes. If you are looking for inspiration on how to start cooking with these, try out these recipes from our recipe section – Mushroom-stuffed Turkey, Stuffed Peppers, Apple Cinnamon Breakfast Pizza, Courgette Carrot & Tomato Frittata, Moussaka, Vegetable Stir Fry, and Roasted Butternut Squash
The role of physical activity must be considered. Increased levels of daily activity bring about decreases in liver fat stores (43), and a single bout of exercise substantially decreases both de novo lipogenesis (39) and plasma VLDL (92). Several studies demonstrated that calorie control combined with exercise is much more successful than calorie restriction alone (93). However, exercise programs alone produce no weight loss for overweight middle-aged people (94). The necessary initial major loss of body weight demands a substantial reduction in energy intake. After weight loss, steady weight is most effectively achieved by a combination of dietary restriction and physical activity. Both aerobic and resistance exercise are effective (95). The critical factor is sustainability.
Magnesium deficiency is not uncommon in people with diabetes, and it can worsen high blood sugar and insulin resistance. Some studies suggest that supplementing with magnesium may improve insulin function and lower blood sugar levels, but other studies have shown no benefit. Have your doctor check you for deficiency before supplementing with magnesium. These are signs that you're not getting enough magnesium.
The problem, of course, has not been solved – the sugar bowl is still overflowing. You've only moved sugar from the blood (where you could see it) into the body (where you couldn't see it). So, the very next time you eat, the exact same thing happens. Sugar comes in, spills out into the blood and you take metformin to cram the sugar back into the body. This works for a while, but eventually, the body fills up with sugar, too. Now, that same dose of metformin cannot force any more sugar into the body.
Cinnamon has the ability to lower blood sugar levels and improve your sensitivity to insulin. A study conducted at Western University of Health Sciences in Pomona, Calif. found that the consumption of cinnamon is associated with a statistically significant decrease in plasma glucose levels, LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Cinnamon consumption also helped increase HDL cholesterol levels. (15)
Refined sugar: Refined sugar rapidly spikes blood glucose, and soda, fruit juice and other sugary beverages are the worst culprits. These forms of sugar enter the bloodstream rapidly and can cause extreme elevations in blood glucose. (7) Even though natural sweeteners like raw honey and maple syrup are better options, they can still affect blood sugar levels, so only use these foods on occasion. Your best option is to switch to stevia, a natural sweetener that won't have as much of an impact.

Well, I don't know much about VCRs, but I do know about type 2 diabetes. I can write an entire book about obesity (oh, wait, I did that already), or fasting (oh, wait, coming up) or type 2 diabetes (next up for 2018). But many of you will not want to go through the entire instruction manual. So this is the quick start guide for reversing your type 2 diabetes.
In addition to walking and stretching exercises, try interval training cardio, like burst training, or weight training three to five days a week for 20–40 minutes. Burst training can help you burn up to three times more body fat than traditional cardio and can naturally increase insulin sensitivity. You can do this on a spin bike with intervals, or you can try burst training at home.
Thank you so much for providing this expert panel. The varying views helped me understand which areas are somewhat vague and which areas overlap. As a Type2 pre-diabetic of 7 years, I have been informed that I need to take a cholesterol drug, even though my cholesterol has always been low. I was told it's to help remove calcification in my arteries. I have been considered obese for over 20 years and recently lost 50 lbs (I now weight 197) and am continuing to lose weight. I was told that I would always be a diabetic and would have to take medication. I was so proud of my progress (A1c now 5.6), but this news depressed me. I refused to take the cholesterol drug until I could do some research. This expert panel helped me to realize that it is possible to get off the medication if I continue to eat a healthy diet (low saturated fats) and exercise at least 150 minutes a week. Thank you!
Alternative: "I'm a fat-atarian," says DeLaney, who tells her patients to avoid low-fat foods. She encourages them to eat whole-fat dairy products, egg yolks, butter, olive oil, and avocado. "Restoring healthful fats to our diets as well as eliminating trans fats and all refined oils that help deplete our fat and vitamin stores will help nourish the body and reduce the need for diabetes medication."

Scientists say that it interrupts insulin secretion in the pancreas and builds insulin resistance in the body's tissues.

Chronic exposure of β-cells to triacylglycerol or fatty acids either in vitro or in vivo decreases β-cell capacity to respond to an acute increase in glucose levels (57,58). This concept is far from new (59,60), but the observations of what happens during reversal of diabetes provide a new perspective. β-Cells avidly import fatty acids through the CD36 transporter (24,61) and respond to increased fatty acid supply by storing the excess as triacylglycerol (62). The cellular process of insulin secretion in response to an increase in glucose supply depends on ATP generation by glucose oxidation. However, in the context of an oversupply of fatty acids, such chronic nutrient surfeit prevents further increases in ATP production. Increased fatty acid availability inhibits both pyruvate cycling, which is normally increased during an acute increase in glucose availability, and pyruvate dehydrogenase activity, the major rate-limiting enzyme of glucose oxidation (63). Fatty acids have been shown to inhibit β-cell proliferation in vitro by induction of the cell cycle inhibitors p16 and p18, and this effect is magnified by increased glucose concentration (64). This antiproliferative effect is specifically prevented by small interfering RNA knockdown of the inhibitors. In the Zucker diabetic fatty rat, a genetic model of spontaneous type 2 diabetes, the onset of hyperglycemia is preceded by a rapid increase in pancreatic fat (58). It is particularly noteworthy that the onset of diabetes in this genetic model is completely preventable by restriction of food intake (65), illustrating the interaction between genetic susceptibility and environmental factors.
Genetic factors do play a role in any disease, but I put this factor last for a reason. Genetic predisposition to a given disease will increase the chances of getting the disease, but not in a vacuum. People with a strong predisposition to liver disease manage to avoid it, and some with a family history of heart disease remain heart-attack free. Even studies among identical twins show that in most cases, twins will get the same diseases, even in different environments, but sometimes they don't. This means there are other factors involved (see above).
It is a good idea to wear a MedicAlert bracelet or tag that says you have diabetes. This will make others aware of your condition in case you have a severe hypoglycemic attack and are not able to make yourself understood, or if you are in an accident and need emergency medical care. Identifying yourself as having diabetes is important because hypoglycemic attacks can be mistaken for drunkenness, and victims often aren't able to care for themselves. Without prompt treatment, hypoglycemia can result in a coma or seizures. And, because your body is under increased stress when you are ill or injured, your blood sugar levels will need to be checked by the medical personnel who give you emergency care.
The ripe fruit of this cactus has been shown in some small studies to lower blood sugar levels. You may be able to find the fruit in your grocery store, but if not, look for it as a juice or powder at health food stores. Researchers speculate that the fruit may possibly lower blood sugar because it contains components that work similarly to insulin. The fruit is also high in fiber. Try these foods for the best diabetic diet.
Diabetes is a chronic condition that affects an estimated 23.1 million people in the U.S., and as many as 1 in 4 people don't know they have it.[1] Numbers have steadily climbed over the past few decades with no signs of leveling off. Diabetes symptoms include things like increased hunger, increased thirst, frequent urination, slow wound healing, and blurred vision, to name a few.
Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). If your blood sugar level drops below your target range, it's known as low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Your blood sugar level can drop for many reasons, including skipping a meal, inadvertently taking more medication than usual or getting more physical activity than normal. Low blood sugar is most likely if you take glucose-lowering medications that promote the secretion of insulin or if you're taking insulin.
There has been a good amount of attention and time spent on discussing the "reversal" of diabetes, but there's not been a lot of good facts to explain what this means. First, type 1 diabetes (an autoimmune disease) cannot be reversed, cured or avoided – period. It can be managed with insulin and made easier with good lifestyle choices like staying active and eating a healthy diet.
Maintaining normal blood sugar levels is necessary for the body's overall health. Erratic blood sugar levels can affect the body's ability to function normally and even lead to complications if left unchecked. Some herbs and spices found in nature do a tremendous job of naturally lowering blood sugar levels, making them a boon for diabetics and pre-diabetics. What's more, being nature's multi-taskers, herbs and spices also produce overall health benefits beyond just helping balance blood sugar.
Most of those foods are refined, processed starches and sugars. Lots of diets place people on a restricted plan that doesn't allow the refined, processed starches and sugars, and people lose weight, regain good BG control and feel better. However, in most cases, the weight comes back and weight creeps up and BG begins rising again due to the inability to sustain many of these diets.
Formal recommendations on how to reverse type 2 diabetes in clinical practice must await further studies. In the meantime, it will be helpful for all individuals with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes to know that they have a metabolic syndrome that is reversible. They should know that if it is not reversed, the consequences for future health and cost of life insurance are dire, although these serious adverse effects must be balanced against the difficulties and privations associated with a substantial and sustained change in eating patterns. For many people, this may prove to be too high a price to pay, but for those who are strongly motivated to escape from type 2 diabetes, the new understanding gives clear direction. Physicians need to accept that long-term weight loss is achievable for a worthwhile proportion of patients (96). In the United States, diabetes costs $174 billion annually (97), and in the United Kingdom, it accounts for 10% of National Health Service expenditure. Even if only a small proportion of patients with type 2 diabetes return to normal glucose control, the savings in disease burden and economic cost will be enormous.
Knowing your blood-sugar levels and acting accordingly are among the most important ways to treat T1D. Monitoring lets a person know when insulin may be needed to correct high blood sugar or when carbohydrates may be needed to correct low blood sugar. Monitoring blood sugar can be done using traditional blood-sugar meters or continuous glucose monitors (CGMs).
Another remedy for the treatment of diabetes is to take one half cup of the seeds that have been heated and a half cup of water cress seeds (mustard seeds can be substituted) and a 1/4 cup of ground pomegranate peel. Place these all in a blender and pulse well to a fine powder. Add in 1/8 cup of fumitory. Each day take one teaspoon of the ground powder and one teaspoon of the oil, one hour before you eat. Do this for at least one month.
Alternative: "The reason I use food-based supplements is because they most closely help correct what I see as the problem: The food we're eating is lacking in nutrients," DeLaney says. "If their vitamin D is low, it tells me all their fat-soluble vitamins are low." She uses cod liver oil along with high-vitamin butter oil to restore these deficiencies.
It was once assumed that environmental factors took generations to affect a gene change, but research is now finding that a bad enough toxin or environmental stress can alter genes in a single generation. While genes can pre-dispose us to disease, the disease will only present itself in the presence of factors like toxins, poor diet or stress. A predisposition to diabetes, for instance, might be activated from toxins in foods, pesticides, herbicides, chemicals, or from a poor diet, especially when any of the above factors are also present.
Cinnamon's effectiveness as a treatment for diabetes has not been established. A prescription drug as ineffective as cinnamon likely wouldn't pass FDA muster. Existing drug treatments for diabetes, on the other hand, are cheap, effective, and generally well tolerated. Compared to drug therapy, we don't know if cinnamon can reduce the risk of mortality due to diabetes, or the progression to any of the other serious outcomes of diabetes. For my patients that insist on trying cinnamon, I'd caution them of the risks, and reinforce that cinnamon is no alternative for lifestyle changes and medication if necessary. It may be natural, sure, but that doesn't mean it's either safe or effective.
Genetic factors do play a role in any disease, but I put this factor last for a reason. Genetic predisposition to a given disease will increase the chances of getting the disease, but not in a vacuum. People with a strong predisposition to liver disease manage to avoid it, and some with a family history of heart disease remain heart-attack free. Even studies among identical twins show that in most cases, twins will get the same diseases, even in different environments, but sometimes they don't. This means there are other factors involved (see above).
O-3 oils, with both EPA and DHA, can help patients by lowering lipid panels (reduce triglycerides and cholesterol); reducing insulin resistance; reducing pain and inflammation so exercise and sleep are easier; reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease by lowering blood pressure; reducing the risk of dementia and Alzheimer's disease; preventing and treating anxiety and depression; and promoting antioxidant actions in the body and brain to help reduce developing diabetic complications.
High doses of magnesium may cause diarrhea, nausea, loss of appetite, muscle weakness, difficulty breathing, low blood pressure, irregular heart rate, and confusion. It can interact with certain medications, such as those for osteoporosis, high blood pressure (calcium channel blockers), as well as some antibiotics, muscle relaxants, and diuretics.
Diabetes education is very important for any diabetic or a person who has a diabetic at home. The education helps an individual to know more about this dreadful disease. Once educated, the individual can control diabetes in a better manner. Administering insulin, medications, and understanding emergency situations like hypoglycemic attacks, etc. are major points of diabetes education. It also includes the diet a diabetic should avoid and have. Diabetes education is very essential for each and every diabetic and individual who has someone close living with diabetes.
Aside from the financial costs of diabetes, the more frightening findings are the complications and co-existing conditions. In 2014, 7.2 million hospital discharges were reported with diabetes as a listed diagnosis. Patients with diabetes were treated for major cardiovascular diseases, ischemic heart disease, stroke, lower-extremity amputation and diabetic ketoacidosis.
As of now, diabetes is classified as either Type I or Type II. New research suggests there are several more types of diabetes, which all require different treatment approaches, but that's a developing area of knowledge. On an episode of Bulletproof Radio, Dr. Steven Masley explains why doctors are starting to view Altzheimer's disease as "type III diabetes" and picks apart the relationship between insulin and brain degeneration. Listen to it on iTunes.
The researchers followed the participants after they had completed an eight-week low-calorie-milkshake diet and returned to normal eating. Six months later, those who had gone into remission immediately after the diet were still diabetes-free. Though most of those who reversed the disease had had it for less than four years, some had been diabetic for more than eight years.
Consider a form of regular fasting (more to come in a later blog), such as intermittent fasting or time-restricted feeding (TRF). TRF means eating your calories during a specific window of the day, and choosing not to eat food for the rest. It's a great way to reduce insulin levels in your body and help undo the effects of chronically elevated levels.
The bottom line is that diabetes can be bad news—but this doesn't have to be the case. Interventions can prevent or delay the disease in people with prediabetes. The Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP), a large study of people at high risk of diabetes, has established a prevention plan that's both feasible and cost-effective. The DPP showed that weight loss and increased physical activity reduced the development of type 2 diabetes by 58% during a three-year period.
Poor oral hygiene is a great factor to take under consideration when it comes to oral problems and even more in people with diabetes. Diabetic people are advised to brush their teeth at least twice a day, and if possible, after all meals and snacks. However, brushing in the morning and at night is mandatory as well as flossing and using an anti-bacterial mouthwash. Individuals who suffer from diabetes are recommended to use toothpaste that contains fluoride as this has proved to be the most efficient in fighting oral infections and tooth decay. Flossing must be done at least once a day, as well because it is helpful in preventing oral problems by removing the plaque between the teeth, which is not removed when brushing.
Peripheral neuropathy is a problem with the functioning of the nerves outside of the spinal cord. Symptoms may include numbness, weakness, burning pain (especially at night), and loss of reflexes. Possible causes may include carpel tunnel syndrome, shingles, vitamin or nutritional deficiencies, and illnesses like diabetes, syphilis, AIDS, and kidney failure. Peripheral neuropathy is diagnosed with exams and tests. Treatment for the condition depends on the cause. Usually, the prognosis for peripheral neuropathy is good if the cause can be successfully treated or prevented.

Women masterbating on camera
She is a very loving wife and mother. In the episode " Coal Digger ", Luke calls her a coal digger which is mocking when Claire called her a gold digger. The most frequent running gag involving the character is her mispronunciation of common English words and phrases, and Vergara confirmed that many of these mispronunciations are improvised. However, she does occasionally display some odd parenting techniques.

text: On sale today, featuring improved paper quality and a full redesign. Author: Climbing Staff Publish date: May 15, 2018 Social count: 126 126 SHARES Editor's Note Out with the old? Climbing and the inevitability of change In 1990, I belayed Boone Speed on the FA of I'll Take Black, a 5.12c on the Malvado Wall at the Hell area in American Fork (AF), Utah. Speed was a founding father at AF and later became the first American to establish 5.14b. We were in the early years of sport climbing, when clipping bolts was still fresh and exciting, like opening the biggest box under the Christmas tree. Some of my first road trips, to areas like Smith Rock and AF, brought me face-to-face with the pioneers of that pivotal era. At AF, I watched as the rockstars—people like Speed, whom I'd only seen before in magazines—flung themselves at the steeps. A revolution was happening, and I feel lucky to have witnessed it. Of course, much has changed since then, and the growth of sport climbing is but one thread in the ever-expanding tapestry of our sport. Life is change, sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse—and most of it out of our hands thanks to the random workings of the universe. Climbing is no different; magazines must always be reinventing themselves, evolving to reflect the times. Thus for our July 2018 issue, we're excited to announce a couple of big changes: an increase in paper quality and a front-to-back redesign…. [Read full story]

Crazy Things Happening During Flight – From Snakes and Scorpions to Forgetting a Baby!
You'll be surprised to know how many crazy incidents happen with people during the flights. Nexter.org has prepared for just some of them and promise they will blow your mind!
When passenger forgot her baby
Source: gfycat
A passenger plane reportedly had to turn around and go back to a Saudi airport after a mother left her baby at the terminal.
The Saudia flight from Jeddah was said to be on its way to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, when the woman realised she was missing her child and alerted cabin crew.
The pilot then had to request permission to return to Jeddah from baffled air traffic controllers, Arab media reported.
The woman had left the child behind in the departure lounge at King Abdul Aziz International Airport, according to Gulf News.
A voice recording, which has been widely shared online in the Arab world, reveals how puzzled aviation staff tried to deal with the crisis.
The pilot reportedly asked them: 'May God be with us. Can we come back or what?' One of the controllers can then be heard asking a colleague: 'This flight is requesting to come back…a passenger forgot her baby in the waiting area, the poor thing.'
Scorpion attacks passenger
Source: Reuters / Faisal Al Nasser
A woman on an Air Transat flight from Toronto to Calgary on Feb. 26 was startled when she was stung by a scorpion shortly before the plane landed.
Quin Maltais is from Yukon and is studying in Alberta. She was in the last hour of a four-hour flight when she started to feel a fluttering motion on her lower back.
"I just kind of ignored it," she said, thinking the air conditioning on the plane was blowing down her back.
"As soon as the lights turned off again, closer to when we're literally about to land, I felt the piercing pain on my lower back, like, oh, my God, something bit me."
She said she was freaking out: "I looked behind me on the seat and then I saw movement and there was a scorpion that was in the fold toward the back of the chair."
"There was a scorpion in my sweater. It was on my back for the past 30 minutes … it was like four inches [about 10 cm], maybe," she said, adding that she wondered "what is that doing on a Canadian flight."
Snake on a plane
Passengers on board an AeroMexico flight came face to face with a deadly five-foot long viper while traveling to Mexico City in what was previously only a movie scene, brought terrifyingly to life.
The snake made itself known to its fellow passengers by suddenly plunging out of an overhead locker during the two-hour flight from Torreon in the northern state of Coahuila.
A video recorded by passenger Indalecio Medina shows the viper slithering above seats before suddenly dropping down and dangling overhead.
Is fuel meant to be gushing from the wing like that?
A United Airlines flight to Venice was canceled after a passenger spotted fuel pouring from a wing while the aircraft awaited clearance to take off.
The Boeing 767-300 was about to depart from Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey when it was forced to return to gate after someone in a window seat alerted crew to a fuel leak in its left wing.

Being a child star is not always easy, as we've seen time after time again with multiple young celebs who somehow end up going down a very difficult road in life. But then there are some of them who miraculously manage to survive the negative side of being in the spotlight at an early age, and proceed to be even more successful later on in life. Today we wanted to take a look at some of our favorite former child stars who are moms today, and check out how they're doing. They have certainly come a long way, from being on the screen before they even graduated high school to raising children of their own. From Academy Award winners such as Reese Witherspoon to teen icons like Hilary Duff to some who gave us surprising teen pregnancies — yup, we're looking at Britney's little sister, Jamie Lynn Spears: These actresses have all proven that child stars can find their way, be successful in the industry, survive any obstacles thrown their way, and end up becoming amazing mothers. And the story doesn't end here, all of these still have very active plans for the future, and we seriously can't wait to see what other amazing things they (and their kids) have planned to give us!
Alright, here they are: 15 former child stars we all loved (and still do) who are mothers today!
15 Hilary Duff
Let's kick this list of moms off with one of our favorite early-2000s child stars, the one and only Hilary Duff! Seriously, most millennials grew up watching her conquer life and its ups and downs as the iconic Lizzie McGuire, and that character taught us so many important lessons. Hilary, who as a twelve-year-old had her first role in the 1998 Casper Meets Wendy movie, went on to become one of the biggest teen stars of her time. Fast forward to 2012, and the star gave birth to her son Luca, and then to 2018 when she welcomed her daughter Banks to the world.
14 Jamie Lynn Spears
Jamie Lynn Spears was a known child star and Britney Spears's little sister, who was the lead on Nickelodeon's hit show Zoey 101. Her image was flawless until 2007 when she got pregnant at the age of 16. This changed her life drastically, as Zoey 101 was canceled. She gave birth to her daughter Maddie in 2008, and 10 years later, in 2018 she gave birth to her second daughter, Ivey Joan. While everyone was freaking out that she got pregnant at 16, Jamie seems to have figured it all out, and both of her daughters seem healthy and happy.
13 Melissa Joan Hart
Melissa Joan Hart was a huge child star in the '90s, with starring roles on shows like Clarissa Explains It All and Sabrina the Teenage Witch. She had her acting debut at the young age of 7 and has been showing up on TV screens ever since. In 2003 she married musician Mark Wilkerson, and the couple has three adorable sons, born in 2006, 2008, and 2012. And while Melissa is a full-time mom, she also still acts in TV shows and feature films. Being on screen from such a young age definitely made her have an amazing work ethic and time-management skills!
12 Tia And Tamera Mowry
Two of the most iconic Hollywood twins, Tia and Tamera Mowry, started acting at the young age of twelve, but they had their big breakthrough in the sitcom Sister, Sister, which premiered in 1994. In 2011 Tia had her first son, Cree Taylor, and last year she gave birth to her first daughter, Cairo Tiahna. Her sister Tamara had her firstborn son, Aden John, in 2012 and daughter Ariah Talea in 2015. The two have surely come a long way since their days on Sister, Sister, and we can't wait to see what they (and their adorable kids) do next!
11 Beverley Mitchell
Wo doesn't remember Beverley Ann Mitchell as Lucy Camden-Kinkirk on the TV hit show 7th Heaven? She started acting in the show at the age of thirteen and stayed on it for seven seasons as one of the main characters. But Beverly didn't have her first role on that show; her acting debut was actually in 1990 at the age of seven in the TV series Big Brother Jake. Fast forward to 2013, and Beverly welcomed her first daughter, and then to 2015 when the family was joined by an adorable son. In 2018, Beverly opened up about having a loss earlier that year, in hopes of helping people be more open about this topic.
10 Jodie Sweetin
Now let's move on to some Full House kiddos. While Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen undoubtedly stole the show for all other kids in their iconic role of Michelle Tanner, Jodie Sweetin definitely also had her memorable moments as the family's middle child, Stephanie Tanner. She started playing the role in 1987, at the age of five! Nowadays Jodie has two daughters, the first named Zoie, who was born in 2008, and the second named Beatrix, who was born in 2010. Jodie definitely had her ups and downs in life after becoming famous as a child, but she seems to have managed to figure it all out!
9 Candace Cameron Bure
We could not have mentioned Jodie Sweetin without also including Candace Cameron Bure! The oldest Full House sister, D.J. Tanner, was that kind of character everyone loved. She was played by Candace at the young age of eleven, and we got to see D.J. go through her teens and become a grown woman. Cameron married NHL hockey player Valeri Bure (of Russia) in 1996, and together they have three children: a daughter, Natasha who was born in 1998, and two sons born in 2000 and 2002. Daughter Natasha Bure actually had her own little moment of fame when she competed in season 11 of The Voice at the age of 18.
8 Christy Carlson Romano
Christy Carlson Romano is another child star who is a mom now. Christy became famous for her role as Ren Stevens in the Disney Channel show Even Stevens, and she played everyone's favorite mean girl in Cadet Kelly, a movie fellow child star mom Hilary Duff starred in, as well. While she starred in Even Stevens at the age of sixteen, her acting debut was actually four years earlier in 1996. Christy had her firstborn daughter in 2016 and is currently expecting her second child with writer-producer Brendan Rooney. Can we all just take a moment to admire how adorbz their daughter is!
7 Maureen McCormick
Another iconic child star is Maureen McCormick, who portrayed Marcia Brady on the ABC television sitcom The Brady Bunch in the late '60s and early '70s. Maureen, who had her acting debut in 1964 in Bewitched, started playing Marcia in 1969, at the age of thirteen. The famous Hollywood star has one child, a daughter named Natalie Michelle, born in 1989. While Maureen definitely has a memorable and impressive acting portfolio with roles such as Wendy Darling in Peter Pan and Betty Rizzo in Grease, most of us will always remember her perfect portrayal of the one and only Marcia Brady.
6 Tatyana Ali
Let's move on to child star Tatyana Ali, who had her acting debut in 1985 at the age of six, by playing Tatyana on Sesame Street. Since then, this girl was unstoppable, and her most memorable and iconic role was as Ashley Banks on the NBC sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air in the first half of the '90s. Tatyana, who is now 40, has a son born in 2016. Can we all just agree that she, her husband, Vaughn Rasberry, assistant professor of English at Stanford University, and their adorable little son are the cutest family ever? Yup, it's been decided!
5 Alexa PenaVega
Next on our list is actress Alexa PenaVega, best known for her role as Carmen Cortez in the Spy Kids film series. Alexa had her acting debut at the age of five by playing Emily Newton in a couple of episodes of the TV show Evening Shade, but it wasn't until her role in Spy Kids in 2001 that she got pretty famous. At that time, Alexa was thirteen years old. The actress, who is married to fellow actor and singer Carlos Pena Jr., nowadays spends her time on a family YouTube channel called LexLovesLos. She gave birth to a son in 2016, and in January 2019 announced that she and her husband are expecting their second child.
4 Danielle Harris
Danielle Harris, also known as the scream queen for all her memorable film roles, actually also had her acting debut in a flick of the same genre. Back in 1988, at the young age of five, little Danielle played Jamie Lloyd in Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers, and a year later she played the same character in the next sequel, Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers. After this, her roles were kind of set, Danielle played many characters in different movies. Nowadays Danielle is the mother of two sons, one born in 2017 and one in 2018, and she's still a movie queen!
3 Christina Ricci
Who doesn't remember Christina Ricci's iconic child roles? She had her acting debut in the movie Mermaids at the age of ten, and ever since then, this lady has been unstoppable. Most of us remember her as a child portraying Wednesday Addams in The Addams Family which was released in 1991 when she was eleven. Christina went on to become one of Hollywood's staple names, and she has many awards to prove it. Nowadays the 39-year-old is raising her son Freddie, who was born in 2014, while still being a successful actress. We can't wait to see more of what she has prepared for us, and can we all just make a petition for an Addams Family remake with her as Morticia?
2 Danica McKellar
Actress Danica McKellar is best known for her role of Gwendolyn "Winnie" Cooper, the main love interest of Kevin Arnold in the hit ABC comedy-drama show The Wonder Years. While she started acting in it at the age of thirteen, she actually had her first role in The Twilight Zone at the age of ten. In 2010 Danica had her first child with composer Mike Verta, a son named Draco. Besides being a successful actress, Danica has also authored several mathematics-related books and has a couple of published academic papers, which is quite impressive for someone who grew up in the world of glitz and glam.
1 Reese Witherspoon
Last but not least on our list is Academy Award winner Reese Witherspoon. Reese made her professional screen debut in The Man in the Moon back in 1991, when she was only fifteen years old! Ever since Reese has been starring in huge blockbusters and snatching awards left and right for her amazing performances. The now-42-year-old actress has two children: daughter Ava Elizabeth born in 1999 (who is the spitting image of her beautiful mom), and two sons born in 2003 and 2012. Reese went from child star to one of Hollywood's biggest names, and she doesn't seem to be slowing down any time soon!

The University of Rochester (UR) is a private, nonsectarian, research university located in Rochester, New York. The University grants undergraduate, graduate, doctoral, and professional degrees through six schools and various interdisciplinary programs. The University is home to several noted schools and programs, including the number one ranked Eastman School of Music and The Institute of Optics, the oldest optics program in the United States. The University enrolls approximately 4,600 undergraduates and 3,900 graduate students. The University of Rochester competes in the NCAA's Division III for athletics. UR with its affiliated Strong Health System is the largest employer in the Greater Rochester area.[4]
The University of Rochester was founded in 1850 as a Baptist-sponsored institution. The impetus to form the university came primarily from the little town of Hamilton, New York, which has been home to Colgate University since 1819.[5] In 1848, the Baptist Education Society planned to move Colgate University (Then known as Madison University) to the city of Rochester, but was halted by legal action. Dissenting Colgate trustees, faculty, and students founded the University of Rochester, receiving a charter from the Regents of the University of the State of New York on January 31, 1850. Classes began that November, with approximately 60 students enrolling, including 28 transfers from Madison.[6]
University of Rochester's campus was originally in downtown Rochester at the United States Hotel, which was located on Buffalo Street near Elizabeth Street, which today is West Main Street near the I-490 overpass. In 1853, the campus moved east to a then-suburban location on what is now University Avenue. Local businessman and Congressman Azariah Boody donated 8 acres (32,000 m2) of land for the new campus, and the University purchased a further 17 acres (69,000 m2) from him.[7] UR would remain on this campus until the current River Campus was constructed in 1930, and the university continues to own a small part of the University Avenue campus (where the university-owned Memorial Art Gallery is located).
The first women students were admitted in 1900, the result of an effort led by Susan B. Anthony and Helen Barrett Montgomery. During the 1890s, a number of women took classes and labs at the university as "visitors" but were not officially enrolled nor were their records included in the college register. President David Jayne Hill allowed the first woman, Helen E. Wilkinson, to enroll as a normal student, although she was not allowed to matriculate or to pursue a degree. Thirty-three women enrolled among the first class in 1900, and Ella S. Wilcoxen was the first to receive a degree, in 1901.[8] When the River Campus was completed in 1930, male students moved there while the female students remained on the University Avenue campus until 1955.
Major growth occurred under the leadership of Rush Rhees, during his 1900-1935 tenure. During this time, George Eastman became a major donor, giving more than $50 million to the university. The first Ph.D. was awarded in 1925. In 1955, the separate colleges for men and women were merged into The College. In 1958, three new schools were created in engineering, business administration, and education.[9]
In 1995, university president Thomas H. Jackson announced the launch of a "Renaissance Plan" for The College that, among several changes, reduced enrollment and created a more selective admissions process. The plan also revised the undergraduate curriculum significantly, creating the current system with only one required course and only a few distribution requirements (known as "clusters").[10]
The university is headed by a board of trustees, with Edmund A. Hajim being the chairman.[11] The board appoints the president of the university, currently Joel Seligman, who replaced Thomas H. Jackson on July 1, 2005.

The River Campus is the center of the university's academic and administrative activities. It is located in a bend of the Genesee River about 2 miles (3.2 km) south of downtown Rochester and covers around 200 acres (0.81 km2). It is bounded by Bausch & Lomb Riverside Park, an 18-acre (73,000 m2) public park along the east bank of the Genesee River.
The original buildings of the campus were dedicated in 1930. The main academic buildings, designed in the Greek revival style, are centered around the Eastman Quadrangle (generally referred to as the academic quad) which is formed by Rush Rhees Library and Dewey, Bausch & Lomb, Morey, and Lattimore Halls. The Eastman Quad is widely considered the best landscaped area of the university. Rush Rhees Library, the unofficial symbol of the university, is also home to the Hopeman Memorial Carillon, the largest carillon in New York State, featuring 50 bells that chime on the quarter hour. During the summer, the carillon features a recital series in which various artists perform on the instrument.
Over the course of the last several decades, other academic buildings have been built south of the Eastman Quad, including Meliora Hall (1972), Hoyt Hall (1962), Harkness Hall (1946), Gavett Hall (dedicated with the Eastman Quad in 1930), and the Hopeman Engineering Building (1963). The southernmost part of the River Campus contains the new Science and Engineering Quadrangle: Hutchison Hall (1972), Hylan Building (1971), the Computer Studies Building and Carlson Library (1987), Wilmot Building (1961), and the Robert B. Goergen Hall for Biomedical Engineering and Optics (completed in March 2007).[13]
Students often congregate outdoors during the warmer months on the various quads. Other centers of student life include Todd Union, Frederick Douglass Dining Center, various locations inside Rush Rhees Library, and Wilson Commons, a student union designed by the architectural firm of I.M. Pei. Many academic buildings, including Rush Rhees Library, are connected by a series of tunnels,[14] which are used extensively, especially during unfavorable weather. Most academic buildings and common areas, as well as Freshman residence halls, have authenticated Wi-Fi internet access.[15]
The University of Rochester Medical Center (URMC) is the primary campus for the university's medical education and research as well as the main patient care facility. The Medical Center is located adjacent to the River Campus and is dominated by Strong Memorial Hospital, the School of Medicine and Dentistry building and the Arthur Kornberg Medical Research Building. URMC also houses the School of Nursing and a variety of research centers, including the Wilmot Cancer Center, the Aab Institute of Biomedical Sciences, and an under-construction Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute.
The Eastman School of Music is situated on its own campus in downtown Rochester, which includes a residence for students, classroom and performance facilities, and the Eastman Theatre, a 3,094-seat concert hall which also serves as the primary venue of the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra. The campus also features the Sibley Music Library, which is the largest academic music library in North America, as well as the largest privately owned collection of sheet music. Students are housed at 100 Gibbs Street, a dormitory building constructed in 1991.
The South Campus is located in Brighton, NY, immediately south of Rochester proper. The campus includes the Laboratory for Laser Energetics, the Center for Optics Manufacturing, the Center for Optoelectronics and Imaging, and the now defunct Nuclear Structure Research Laboratory (NSRL). Graduate student housing is also provided at the Whipple Park complex.
University of Rochester's undergraduate enrollment consists of about 4,500 full-time and about 100 part-time students from across the U.S. and over 90 countries.[16] Graduate enrollment comprises about 3,300 full-time and about 550 part-time graduate students. The university has more than 97,000 living alumni. The university employs more than 1,200 tenure-track faculty, with more than 17,000 faculty and staff across the university and the Strong Health System. UR's faculty include fellows of all four National Academies of the U.S., Guggenheim Fellows, and recipients of many other awards and recognitions.[17]
The defining feature of the undergraduate program at the University is the Rochester Curriculum. There are no required subjects outside of a prerequisite writing course, which may be tested out of. The Curriculum requires that undergraduates study in all of three areas of knowledge: humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences. Aside from the area of study which a student's major falls in, undergraduates must complete 3-4 courses of related materials (called "clusters") within each of the remaining areas. For example, a student with a concentration in mathematics, a natural science field, must complete at least one cluster in the humanities and one in social sciences. A second concentration or a minor also satisfies this requirement. The only exceptions are students concentrating in an accredited engineering field (biomedical engineering, chemical engineering, electrical and computer engineering or mechanical engineering), who are only required to have one cluster in either humanities or social sciences.
UR is one of the 25 New Ivies in the 2007 Kaplan/Newsweek "How to Get into College Guide."[18] The list names institutions whose caliber of students is considered to rival traditional Ivy League schools.[18] The rankings are based on admissions statistics as well as interviews with administrators, students, faculty, and alumni.[19]
U.S. News and World Report, in their popular National University Rankings, placed the University of Rochester 35th in the nation for 2008, 2009, and 2010.[20] In 2007, the London Times rated the University of Rochester 48th among the best universities in the world and 21st among American educational institutions. The University of Rochester also placed 21st on The Washington Monthly College Rankings list. The list includes institutions that The Washington Monthly believes are "benefitting the country." The rankings take into account how a school contributes to social mobility by helping the poor improve their economic standing. Other criteria include the institution's support for research in the humanities and in the sciences and its promotion of an ethic of service to country.
Consistently, in world university rankings, University of Rochester places within the top 100 overall,[21] and in the top 10 for the staff-to-student ratio.[22] The University has also been ranked as 34th worldwide according to Global University Ranking[23] and 21st in the United States among research universities.[citation needed]
The Eastman School of Music ranks first among graduate music programs in the U.S.[24] Other schools in the university also rank highly, with the School of Medicine and Dentistry at 30th overall among medical schools and its primary-care program ranked 15th among primary-care medical schools, and the Simon School ranked 23rd among graduate business schools. U.S. News and World Report also ranked the Hajim School of Engineering's graduate program 38th nationally. Additionally, the graduate programs of political science, economics, and medical research were ranked 15th, 22nd, and 31st in the nation, respectively.[25][26]
UR is a leading private university and a major center for diverse fields of research. The university has eight Nobel Prize winners among its faculty and alumni.[citation needed] UR consistently ranks among the top 40 colleges and universities nationwide in federally financed science, engineering, medical, and other research[citation needed], with a total research budget of around $350 million spread across many departments and research centers, including the Laboratory for Laser Energetics, a laser-based nuclear fusion facility, and the extensive research facilities at the University of Rochester Medical Center. Recently, the university has also engaged in a series of new initiatives to expand its programs in biomedical engineering and optics, including the construction of the new $37 million Robert B. Goergen Hall for Biomedical Engineering and Optics on the River Campus.[27] Other new research initiatives include a cancer stem cell program and a Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute.[28][29] UR also has the ninth highest technology revenue among U.S. higher education institutions, with $30 million being paid for commercial rights to university technology and research in 2005.[30] Notable patents include Zoloft and Gardasil.[citation needed] WeBWorK, a web-based system for checking homework and providing immediate feedback for students, was developed by University of Rochester professors Gage and Pizer. The system is now in use at over 100 universities and colleges.[citation needed]
Academics at the University of Rochester are generally organized and administered by school. The various departments offer degree programs ranging from certificates and bachelors degrees to doctorates.
UR's official symbol is the seal of the university, which features a book, representing arts and sciences, a symbol of music and a modified symbol of medicine.[31] The official flower of the university is the dandelion, purportedly prolific on the cow pasture that became the university's first campus.[32]
The mascot is the Yellowjacket. From 1983 to 2008, it was named "URBee". However, when the university re-designed the mascot during the 2007-2008 academic year, a new name was chosen and as of February 1, 2008, the school's mascot has been known as "Rocky"[33][34].
The university uses Dandelion Yellow and a shade of blue ("Rochester" blue) as its official colors, which are the prominent colors on the official regalia.[35]
The motto of UR is Meliora, which loosely means "better" with the connotation of "ever better", which is the meaning adopted by the university.[36]
Many other unofficial symbols are in prevalent use, including the image of Rush Rhees Library's main dome.
UR also has official logos for the university as a whole as well as individual units, including The College, URMC and Eastman. President Seligman, as part of his efforts to improve UR's external appearance, commissioned Bill Murphy, the Vice President of Communications, to start an initiative to develop a new graphic identity, including a new logo, in hopes of improving uniformity and overall usage of official standards.[37] During March 2007, the communications office was soliciting opinions and comments on finalist designs for the new logo, which was unveiled later in the fall.
The song most often sung at college events is The Genesee. Although less frequently used, the university also has an official Alma Mater as well as an alternate song, The Dandelion Yellow.[38]
UR features several traditional events throughout the year with diverse history.[39]
The majority of undergraduate students at the university live and take classes on the River Campus. Underclassmen are generally required to live on campus while upperclassmen have the option to live off campus. Some graduate housing is provided by the university, but a significant number also live off campus. Housing is provided at multiple locations spread across the several campuses.[40]
River Campus River Campus residences house primarily undergraduates, with some graduate students serving as Graduate Head Residents (GHRs). Residences include:
Special Interest floors and Fraternity floors also exist within the residence halls. Special Interest Housing groups include the International Living Center (ILC), Interclass Living Center (ICLC - Crosby 1), Music Interest Floor (MIF - Wilder 9), Health and Home (Valentine 6), Computer Interest Floor (CIF - Anderson 3), Tiernan Project (Burton 2), Media Living Center (MLC - Anderson 7), and the Film Interest Floor (FIF - Kendrick 1).
Eastman School of Music Campus Housing is provided at the Eastman School of Music campus at the Eastman Student Living Center at 100 Gibbs Street in downtown Rochester. The new building was opened in 1991 at the northeast corner of Main and Gibbs Streets, replacing the University Avenue dormitories built nearly 70 years earlier. It is a four-story quadrangle and 16-story tower surrounding a landscaped inner courtyard.
URMC and Mount Hope Campuses Graduate student housing is provided at 4 locations near the URMC and Mount Hope.
South Campus The South Campus has graduate student housing at the Whipple Park (WPK) complex, which features 250 garden apartments and townhouses with ample storage space. WPK also features a park-like setting with large wooded and lawn areas, playgrounds, areas for gardens and low street noise. Some housing is also provided at the River Road complex, which tends to serve as overflow housing for both undergraduate and graduate students.
The Students' Association (SA) is the primary student governing body and includes most of the student groups at UR. The SA is governed by the SA Senate, President and Vice President, all of whom are elected by the student body. The SA President is advised by a cabinet, which is a volunteer group of students. There is also a judicial branch, composed of the All Campus Judicial Council (ACJC), the members of whom are nominated by an interview committee and approved by the SA Senate. The offices of the SA are located in the Wilson Commons student union.[41]
All student groups are required to have a constitution, elected officers, and approval from senate in order to be recognized by the SA and have access to university funds. These funds are given yearly based on budgets submitted to the Students' Association Appropriation Committee (SAAC)[42] with supplemental funds available through special forms. All funds are derived from the mandatory Student Activities Fee.
UR's athletics teams are called the Yellowjackets. They participate in the Division III of the NCAA and in the University Athletic Association and Liberty League. One exception to this is the men's squash team, which plays in Division I.[43] The University fields men's teams in baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, soccer, swimming and diving, tennis, and track and field. On the women's side, UR sponsors teams in basketball, cross country, field hockey, lacrosse, soccer, softball, swimming and diving, tennis, track and field, and volleyball. In 2009 women's soccer coach Terry Gurnett set records with over 400 lifetime wins.[44][45] There are also numerous club and intramural athletics groups.
The main athletics facilities of the university are in the Robert B. Goergen Athletic Center and Fauver Stadium on the River Campus, with other facilities located in the Spurrier building (River Campus) and the URMC.[46][47]
The UR campuses have their own University-sponsored system of buses, called "shuttles," which provide free transportation from the River Campus to the Medical Center, South Campus, and the Eastman Campus. There are also lines that run between the River Campus and local shopping and entertainment in Henrietta and Pittsford. Most of the University-sponsored buses are named using a color system (i.e. Red Line) that indicates their respective route and allows for easy identification. Several bus lines of the Rochester-Genesee Regional Transportation Authority (RTS) also make stops at the University.
The university participates in the Zipcar program, which allows students to rent cars on an hourly or daily basis.[48][49]
The Greater Rochester International Airport is a ten-minute drive to the west of the River Campus. In addition, Amtrak train and Greyhound bus have stations in downtown Rochester to the north of the campus.
