Infectious Disease
Vaccine-Preventable Diseases
A measles outbreak in Minnesota that has been linked to anti-vaccine rhetoric in an immigrant community has surpassed 50 cases — the largest in the state in almost three decades, according to state health officials.
The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) said 51 people have been sickened in the outbreak so far, mostly in Hennepin County, which encompasses Minneapolis. The vast majority of patients have been unvaccinated children of Somali descent, a result of Somalis in Minnesota being targeted by anti-vaccine activists who have stoked fears about higher rates of autism among children in the community.
According to recent reports, these activists have included Andrew Wakefield, the researcher who lost his medical license in the United Kingdom over a discredited 1998 study suggesting a link between vaccination and autism.
"We've been aware for many years that the Somali community is the target of misinformation related to vaccines," MDH spokeswoman Kate Awsumb told Infectious Disease News.
In response, Awsumb said the MDH has been working with community leaders and health care providers to dispel myths about vaccines and circulate accurate information.
Still, the autism fears were fanned during a recent meeting in Minneapolis hosted by anti-vaccine activists in which some physicians expressed concern that the activists were pushing scientifically discredited claims about the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine in a community in the midst of a measles outbreak.
According to a Washington Post story that described the meeting, physicians "were interrupted by boos and yelling," with the mother of a son who was diagnosed with autism shouting that she wanted to know if vaccines were safe and telling a pediatrician who addressed the crowd, "You don't know what you are talking about."
"I've been reading a lot about 'fake news' and how people would rather believe it than the truth. They're not receptive to what the facts are. The question is, what should people do?" James D. Cherry, MD, MSc, distinguished research professor of pediatrics at the David Geffen School of Medicine at the University of California, Los Angeles, and attending physician in pediatric infectious diseases at Mattel Children's Hospital UCLA, said in an interview with Infectious Disease News.
Cherry said physicians might want to start by changing how they address scenes like the one described in the Washington Post story.
"I think that the mistake physicians make is they stand up and say vaccines don't cause autism. They start on that part, which is not the way to do it. You want to start with what the risks of the disease are," Cherry said.
For instance, as many as one out of every 20 children infected with measles will get pneumonia and about one or two out of every 1,000 will die, according to the CDC. Cherry said physicians should also warn parents about the risk of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE), a 100% fatal complication of measles. SSPE affects as many as one in 609 patients infected before the age of 1 year, according to a recent study by Cherry and colleagues.
"Sometimes physicians are called upon to speak, and they don't know enough about the subject," Cherry said.
Although the Americas have not had an endemic case of measles since 2002 and the U.S. has been declared free of the disease since 2000, it remains common in other parts of the world. Travel-related outbreaks still occur here, such as the one that started in Disneyland theme parks in 2014. Recently, health officials warned that a surge in European measles cases was being driven by gaps in vaccination coverage.
Cherry said several factors have played a role in the anti-vaccine movement. "No. 1," he said, "are people who make money from it. Andrew Wakefield is the prime example. He significantly contributed to what's happened in Minnesota. He met with them. It's alternative facts. And if people want to believe them, they believe them."
It is the largest measles outbreak in Minnesota since 1990, when there were 460 cases and three deaths, Awsumb said. According to her, another ethnic group — the Hmong community — was disproportionately affected by that outbreak. The current outbreak is almost as large as the total number of measles cases in the U.S. in 2016 (61) and 2015 (70).
Autism fears were addressed in a 2013 study by researchers at the University of Minnesota, who found that Somali children in Minneapolis were about as likely as white children to be identified with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), although both groups had higher rates than black and Hispanic children and the rates were higher than most communities where ASD has been tracked by the CDC. Also, Somali children with ASD were more likely than all other racial and ethnic groups in Minneapolis to also have an intellectual disability, according to their report.
Amid pressure from activists, the MMR vaccination rate among children of Somali descent has dropped from 92% in 2004 to 42% in 2014, according to the MDH. But Awsumb said the MDH has seen an increase in the number of Somali children receiving the MMR vaccine from about 30 doses a week to around 500 doses per week.
"Our program staff, including our Somali outreach workers, worked closely with community leaders, religious leaders and health care providers to provide the community with accurate information and dispel myths and continue to work together during this outbreak," she said.
According to the CDC, one dose of the MMR vaccine is about 93% effective at preventing measles, and two doses is around 97% effective. The CDC recommends children get their first MMR dose between the ages of 12 and 15 months and the second dose between the ages of 4 and 6 years, but the MDH has recommended an accelerated vaccination schedule, a common measure in an outbreak.
The MDH says children over age 1 year who have not been vaccinated and adults born after 1956 who have not had measles or been vaccinated should receive the MMR vaccine as soon as possible. It also recommends that children in the three affected counties — Crow Wing, Hennepin and Ramsey — and all Somali-American children in the state who have received their first dose of the MMR vaccine at least 28 days ago should get the second dose as soon as possible.
Cherry said parents whose children are not vaccinated are not always "hard-liner" anti-vaccine activists.
Near the end of the California measles outbreak linked to Disneyland, Cherry talked to a group of parents at a Los Angeles school where the measles vaccination rate was around 89%. He said most of the parents of unvaccinated children said they were just too busy to get them vaccinated, and the school did not realize they were not immunized.
"They just slipped through the cracks," Cherry said.
Within 2 weeks, the immunization rate had gone up to 95%, he said. – by Gerard Gallagher

Nike is arguably the most renowned athletic shoe company in the world. While the company's mainstream takeover began with an iconic running sneaker, they were shaking up the tennis shoe industry by the 1970s. By partnering with edgy players like Steve Prefontaine and John McEnroe, the company tore the game of tennis off its one-way track and sent it charging in the opposite direction.
To this day, the company continues to shake things up with cutting-edge technologies and bold colorways. If you're a tennis player looking for comfortable and supportive footwear, then Nike is probably already on your radar. Still, the company's tennis shoe collection includes thousands of different models.
What are the Best Nike Shoes for Tennis in 2020?
We've tried out several customer favorites before settling on our top three designs. Read about these and important Nike tennis shoe considerations in the sections below!
1. Nike Men's Air Zoom Vapor X
The Vapor X tennis shoes are a hodgepodge of Nike's most renowned footwear technologies. Their full-length TPU shank, encapsulated Air cushion, and Dynamic Fit system are just a few of the advancements that make these shoes so comfortable and supportive.
2. Nike's Women Court Lite
Nike has made the most of their women's tennis shoes by bulking them up with supportive midsole cushions and durable rubber soles. On top of that, these shoes boast tough leather uppers that hug the feet for support through one rally after another.
3. Nike Men's Zoom Cage 3
The Cage 3 tennis shoes slip on like a sock for a fuss-free lockdown that lasts through an entire match. We love the athletic look of the Nike Cage system and cannot get enough of the underfoot supports. On top of that, these shoes offer unmatched traction and durability.
1. Nike Men's Air Zoom Vapor X – Best Nike Tennis Shoes (Editor's Choice)
Settling in nicely at the top of our list, Nike's Vapor X tennis shoe features a responsive and lightweight core that promotes quick lateral movements.
What's more, this tennis shoe slips on like a sock thanks to its Dynamic Fit system, padded collar, and adjustable lace-up closure. Furthermore, the shoe's heel-to-toe TPU foot frame provides players with exceptional stability and support.
On top of that, the Vapor X boasts a patented Vapor X phylon midsole and a Nike Zoom cushion in the heel. As such, this shoe absorbs an ample amount of court shock while upping an athletes toe-offs and landings.
We love how well these shoes wrapped around our feet. While they were a little tight out of the box, it only took a few rounds to break them in properly. We also loved how lightweight and breathable these shoes were. They certainly felt like vapor. We also felt that the shoes offered wide and grippy lockdown. With that said, these shoes do lack a bit of durability. As such, we recommend them for match-only wear if you're on the court daily.
- Nike Zoom Air cushioning platform
- Mesh and synthetic overlays
- Padded tongue and collar
- Adjustable lace-up closure
- TPU midfoot shank
- XDR rubber outsoles with herringbone print
- Dynamic herringbone tread
- Several unique colorways
- Somewhat narrow
- Slides easily
2. Nike's Women Court Lite – Top Nike Tennis Shoes (People's Choice)
Yet another comfort and supportive Nike tennis shoe, the women's Court Lites provide structured support on and off the court. These impressive sneakers feature lightweight leather and synthetic uppers paired with breathable padded mesh heels and tongues.
Nike even bulked up the toe area with a few additional layers of material to ensure that drag-induced abrasions wouldn't be this sneaker's downfall.
On top of that, these tennis shoes feature full-length Phylon midsoles for added support and comfort. With the Court Lites, you'll never have to leave the court because the bottoms of your feet are sore!
These shoes definitely prevent you from slipping during rapid lateral movements. They're also super breathable despite their solid exterior. As such, there's no reason to worry if you break a sweat. With all that said, our favorite thing about them is their durability. The Court Lites will protect your feet through countless rallies. As such, they'll also look great for extended periods of time.
- Durable GDR outsole
- Heel-to-toe Phylon midsole
- Breathable leather and synthetic uppers
- Extra toe panels to fight against surface abrasions
- Padded mesh tongue and heel
- Lace-up closure
- A wide range of custom colorways
- Stiff
3. Nike Men's Zoom Cage 3 – Most Comfortable Nike Tennis Shoes
Last but certainly not least, Cage 3 tennis shoes offer ample on-court support and stability. To start things off, Nike gave these shoes a tongueless bootie-shaped upper made from one of their proprietary synthetic materials.
Below that, the shoe features an encapsulated Nike Zoom Air unit for exceptional wear-resistance and cushioning. On top of that, the shoe features an exterior heel-to-toe TPU shank for enhanced stability.
As if that were not enough to make this an all-star tennis shoe, Nike went ahead and added their proprietary XDR outsole with a direction-boosting herringbone tread. What's more, they boosted the durability of their sock-like uppers by adding a molded heel clip made of hard wear-resistant material. In most cases, players can slip these amazing shoes on without ever having to think about adjusting the fit or breaking them in.
We couldn't be happier with the Cage 3's on-court performance.
Also, players can toe-off and land without streams of shock running up their legs. On the downside, the upper materials tend to wear quickly. Still, this tennis shoe looks fresh and modern, making it a showstopper we can most definitely get behind!
- Heel-to-toe TPU shank
- Nike Air cushion
- Rubber XDR outsoles with herringbone tread
- Molded heel clip
- Lightweight bootie-shaped upper
- Secure lace-up fit
- Breathable synthetic material
- Wears easily
How to Choose Best Nike Tennis Shoes – Buying Guide
Are you wondering what to consider when purchasing a pair of Nike tennis shoes? Read along for helpful pointers!
Tennis Shoe uppers need to be durable enough to withstand repeated abrasion and high-friction moves.
While traditional tennis shoes boasted all-leather uppers, newer models are often made of strategically placed synthetic and mesh panels.
This opens up the shoe for ventilation while adding support where it is needed most. Nike's tennis shoe uppers range from booties to traditional lace-ups.
Nike's midsole technologies are some of the best in the industry. Their encapsulated zoom cushions and TPU shanks provide torsion support and shock resistance.
The best part is that they are exceptionally lightweight.
Thick rubber soles with herringbone tread are an obvious choice for the tennis court. Even the most high-quality rubbers wear quickly, so invest in a pair that has extra buffers in high-wear zones.
Final Thoughts
Nike's 1970 foray into the tennis world may have come as a shock to some long-seated tennis enthusiasts, but the company has inarguable popularity speaks volumes about their influence on the sport.
In fact, Nike, which is named for the Greek goddess of victory, has spent years developing its renowned tennis shoe technologies. As such, they've come to sponsor some of the world's most celebrated and edgy tennis players, including Serena Williams, Maria, Sharapova, and more.
If you're someone looking to up your on-court appearances while maintaining your comfort and prowess, we hope you enjoyed a look at our top three Nike tennis shoes.

My last post was about how we are so used to being "Sick & Tired" that we don't know how to head to wellness. We are so addicted to fast food, sweet things, carbonated beverages and high fat foods. Our bodies don't get the nutrition needed to be healthy and we are not doing much to help it!
Since the majority of Heart Disease, Strokes, Diabetes, Cancer and Obesity is 75% Preventable, we need to take control of our health now. We have the tools, the information, the education to make a big difference in our own life. And we are the only ones who can make those choices. Our Health is Our Responsibility, plain and simple.
What can we do to make ourselves healthier? There are several simple modifications that will help to improve our health. As we have said earlier, diet, lifestyle, wise supplementation and weight loss can help prevent the development of diseases. Prevent the Development of Diseases. I like that. Now, I don't know about you, but I don't enjoy taking medications, having stays in the hospital and I certainly don't like spending hours in the waiting room of a Doctor's office. So I will do what it takes to prevent the development of diseases! Here are some suggestions of primary prevention:
• Heart disease: weight loss, fiber, soy, exercise, smoking cessation
• Cancer: weight loss, antioxidants & micronutrients, eliminating environmental toxins, including cigarettes
• Stroke: weight loss, omega3s, micronutrients
• Alzheimer's: vitamins C, E, omega3s, resveratrol
• Diabetes: weight loss, fiber, exercise
Look over this list and make a decision on how you can positively impact your own life by making a few changes. Since 75 % of the above diseases are preventable, take a careful look at your lifestyle. Increase your odds for good health!
More to come in the next post. Stay Well

Who Can File a Wrongful Death Claim?
In Colorado, and most other states, a wrongful death claim cannot be filed by just anyone, even if they are related to the deceased. During the first year after the victim's passing, only the spouse is eligible to file a wrongful death claim. When the first year is up, then the victim's children become eligible to file a claim. In the case where the victim had neither a spouse or children, then their parents become eligible to file a wrongful death claim.
It's also important to note that there is a time frame wherein the victim's family can file a wrongful death claim. Any claim from either the spouse, children, or parents of the deceased must be filed within two years of the victim's passing. If you attempt the file a claim after the statute of limitations has passed, your case will not be heard in court, so it's important to speak with a skilled wrongful death lawyer immediately, so to ensure your case has the optimal chance of success.

Rethink Marketing podcast: Networking the Hidden Job Market
Looking for your next marketing gig? Chances are that dream job isn't going to be found via a help wanted listing. Instead it will be via how well you're connected to the hidden job market and be top of mind when a hiring manager asks her network if they know someone who would be a good fit.
We recently interviewed Mac Prichard, founder and publisher of Mac's List, for the Rethink Marketing podcast where he talked about the hidden job market and what marketer's can be doing to land their next great gig, as well as what employers can be doing to hire the perfect candidate.
Mac is also the author of "Land Your Dream Job Anywhere" and host of the weekly career advice podcast Find Your Dream Job. Act-On's Helen Veyna, Content Marketing Specialist, joined us in the interview.
This transcript has been edited for length. To get the full measure, listen to the podcast.
Helen: It was really interesting that you mentioned the language in the job descriptions just because I was recently hired at Act-On three months ago. And during job search, there was a lot of that. I just refused to apply to certain jobs because it just didn't … The job description didn't feel right and I'm pretty sure that I was qualified, now looking back. But it's very interesting. So what do you think that … How do you think companies can maybe have that self-reflection and change that language? What kind of resources, what kind of change should they apply within?
Mac: Well, a couple of basic principles that can help listeners and any company, when they're sitting down to write that posting, it does have to be in plain language. And often, professional language takes over and people think it has to sound important or it has to be written to please a senior manager or meet some internal need. And you really need to step back. And I know this is marketing 101 and very basic for your listeners. But think about who you hope will respond and what is gonna motivate them.
I think another tip that is important for people who are putting together job postings to remember is to include salary ranges. There's research that shows that you're gonna get many more applications if you include a salary range. And I know employers struggle with this. We hear from many managers, "Well I can't do that because we're a large organization. If I publish the salary range for this position, there are similar jobs inside the company and people are gonna find out in that group what each other makes."
I think in the long run, it's in the company's interest to be transparent about salaries. But again, if your goal is to get a good number of applications, listing a salary range is a great way to do that. It also saves you time in the long run too as a manager because think about it. If you put a position out there and it doesn't have a salary range, you're gonna hear from people who are very under qualified and you are gonna hear from people who are over qualified. But you still have to look at those resumes, you still have to send out responses. And you may even invite some of them in for interviews and discover farther along in the process that you either can afford this person or they really don't have the skills and experiences that you hoped they would. When you put a price tag on a position, it brings a lot of clarity to the hiring process and makes everybody's job easier.
Helen: I agree. And I wanted to go back to this idea of the hidden job market and networking. I know I'm not originally from Portland and one of the things that I realized here is that networking is very important. That word of mouth is very important. So do you think this idea only applies to Portland or does it apply nationally as well?
Mac: I think it applies in every market, Helen. I do think it's more important here in Portland than it might be in other cities because there's more competition here. You might have seen this recently. Portland popped up on a list of, I think we're number six now of the number of people with BA degrees among American cities. Also in the top 10 are places like Washington DC, New York, San Francisco. That's extraordinary because I think we have more than 50% of our residents have BAs and statewide it's about 30%. So we're importing a lot of well educated professionals who want to be here because of the quality of life. And again, because so many positions aren't advertised and the competition is above average here, networking becomes much more important.
Nathan: I have a couple of follow ups on the networking question. It seems that if you're looking for a job now, you may not have the time to do that networking find that hidden job. It seems like that's more of a longer play. I don't know if that's true or not where you have the time and luxury to build those relationships at all these different companies. Then you're top of mind when they do get that email from their HR department. Whereas if you're looking for a job now, you gotta pay your rent or your mortgage, you're like, "I'm gonna pound out applications after applications." The second part is … And so maybe we can answer that question first. And then the follow up question you can start thinking about is I'm just … What if you are terrible at networking? It's surprising as a host of a podcast, I'm an introvert. I hate networking events. And I just want to be there for about 10 seconds and leave. So any advice to how to build these relationships?
Mac: Networking is important and it's a skill, like any skill you can master it. Whatever your personality style. Even if you're an introvert. So let's talk about the amount of time networking takes. Back to your point. Well, I've got a job, I've got a family. I don't have time to go to the airport Holiday Inn and pass out 50 business cards because I've got little league tonight or I've got to finish that project for my boss. Networking really can take a number of different forms, Nathan. One is volunteering. And this can look like serving on a committee for the professional association for your occupation in your industry. And that could be going to a meeting once a month or once a quarter. Maybe going to the annual conference in your industry. It can also mean being of service to others. And I think we all get these requests for informational interviews. I certainly get more than most I know because of the work I do at Mac's List. But even before I got into this world, I would hear from other professionals occasionally. And making time to talk to others. That's a form of networking. It's a form of service. And it creates good will. And when you're helpful to others.
I think another way you can network is by sharing your expertise and just doing simple things like posting an article once a week on Linkedin about some development in your industry. Maybe you're already writing. And I know our audience is made up of marketers who write all the time. Maybe you're already writing a blog for your company. Sharing that on your personal social accounts, your Twitter, and Linkedin is a way of demonstrating your expertise but also, again, being of service to others. Good networkers ask for help, but they also give. It's not just about taking.
Now, let's talk about introverts and networking. I mean, there are some practical tips I can share about what you can do if you're an introvert. And I have to admit, in my teens and twenties, I was a very shy guy. I dreaded going to events. Now I go to networking events for fun. But I'm a weirdo. But if you're introverted, that's just a way people get energy. So ways I see introverts network is they put themselves in situations where they're comfortable. So maybe they like taking pictures. Photography is a hobby. They volunteer to take the photos at a conference or the monthly lunch program for their professional group. Maybe they like detail in organizations so they volunteer to run the registration desk at the monthly lunch. And that gives them a chance to meet everyone in a situation where they're comfortable. Whatever the introvert's strengths, find a way to play to them in your industry and you'll not only meet people, you'll show people what you can do. And that will help you create new relationships and demonstrate your expertise.
Helen: I guess going off of that, once our job applicants do find these job opportunities, how … I mean, aside from the networking, how should they go about being considered a strong applicant? I mean especially when we're in a job market where there are these resumes and it's kind of hard to stand out? How can they do that?
Mac: I think it starts with the basics and the people who I see have the most successful job searches, the ones who find jobs they love and they really excel in know what they want to do. They're clear about their goals. They don't use phrases like I'm open to anything or I'm not opposed to that. They're very specific. They say I'm looking for an opportunity as a chief marketing officer for a company of this size. Or I'm exploring these two or three opportunities. And when they do that, it makes their search so much easier because as they're preparing their … It helps them get clear about where the opportunities are because they're very specific. And then when they're applying for those opportunities, whether it's through the front door by responding to a posting or through the back door by having conversations with people who are considering filling those positions, they're able to bring a clarity to their resume, and their cover letter, and their interviews that people who are keeping all their options open just don't have.
And I say that with kindness because I've certainly struggled with setting my own job search goals at different points in my career. But if you get the basics right, you know what you want, then it becomes easier to identify the companies that offer those opportunities. And it brings a focus to your networking and your job hunting that you don't have when you're keeping all your options open. Because chances are, once you know where you want to go, the universe of companies and organizations that offer those opportunities is pretty well defined. You're probably only talking about reaching out to 50, 100 people. And then as all of us who are mid-career or further along in our careers know, you keep running across the same people again and again if you stay in an industry. So know where you want to go, know what you have to offer. And that'll make preparing your resumes, your cover letters, and your interviews … Getting ready for your interviews, rather, so much easier. And the people who spend that time in the up front work as well as prepare for interviews have so much more success. And they have shorter searches. And in the long run, they require a lot less effort.
Nathan: Do you think … It sounds to me like there should be this opportunity you mentioned it earlier in the interview that people are just in jobs for a shorter and shorter period of time nowadays than 10 years or 30 years ago. That I just got hired at a company, Marketing Firm 101, and I should start now thinking about my next job at Marketing Firm XYZ maybe two years from now or three years from now and start building those relationships with that company, with the small group of companies where I want to be a senior director. For Nate Isaacs, I'm a senior content strategist. My next title I want to go after is a director level title. And I should just start looking for those marketing companies that are gonna have a marketing director and start building those relationships or … And that might be something I'm planning to do this three years from now. I could start writing Linkedin Pulse posts. I can start holding one day conferences about marketing director leadership or whatever. I can start working my way back. Franklin Covey's begin with the end in mind type of stuff.
Mac: I'm a big fan of reverse mapping. And I think if you know where you want to be, it makes it a lot easier to get there. And I recognize, particularly for people at the start of their careers who are three, five years out of college, when they look ahead for the next 35 or 40 years that they're gonna be in the workplace, I think it would … No one expects them to know where they want to be at year 25 or 30. But I think everybody should have a general idea of where they want to be in the next five or 10 years. And it really helps to have specific positions in mind. Because when you know that, a couple things happen. You have the opportunity to find people who have those jobs and say to that person, "What is this like? What does it take to get here? What kinds of experiences, skills, certifications should I acquire over the next three, five, 10 years in order to get to this spot?"
Mac: And we can learn so much from others. And this comes back to networking again. My experience has been people are very generous and we're generally wired to want to help others. And I can count on one hand the number of people and I've spoken to thousands over the years who've said no when I've asked for help. But you've gotta be specific when you make the request. So if you ask somebody just for coffee or say you just want to pick their brain, if you're not more specific than that, you're probably not gonna get a lot out of that conversation. So Nathan, to your point, yes, you need to know where you want to be in the next five or 10 years. I think it's always useful to talk to people who have those positions, ask them how they got there, and then work back from those opportunities and think about how you spend your time and how you can get the skills you need to have those positions yourself one day.
Helen: On that note, because our show is very geared towards marketers, I just want to know, do you have any insights specifically for people working in the marketing field about searching for a job or just networking or doing a better job because marketers could always use a refresher in marketing themselves?
Mac: I think marketers start with a big advantage in a job search because they've got the communication skills that can be so helpful in both sharing their expertise and being of service to others. They know how to write, they know how to make presentations, they know how to build relationships. When I see marketers struggle, Helen, it's because they haven't put those skills in the context of a job search. And again, how we spend our time is so important and because marketers … Many marketers like people in other occupations may not look for work frequently. They come to it only every five, 10, 15 years. They think that the way to do it is to look at job boards. And they spend … There's a danger there if you're spending 80, 90, 100% of your time on job boards, you're missing out on the best positions. So I would … My advice to marketers would be just get good at job hunting as a skill and then play to your natural advantages and your strengths. And put your communication skills to good use in both sharing your expertise and being of service to others.
Nathan: And with that in mind, on the opposite end, any advice to marketing companies that are hiring marketers? What should they be thinking about as they either write those job descriptions or just set out a path on what they're gonna be hiring for the next year or two?
Mac: I think for small companies and even medium sized ones that may not have full time HR staff or even just part-time people, they need to invest in helping their staff learn how to get good at hiring, just as people who are thinking about their careers need to get good at job hunting as a skill. So you're not gonna get the best results if you turn to people who got hired to do other things to write your job descriptions and manage a hiring process if you don't give them training in how to do that. So I would encourage particularly small companies, before they post their next announcement, invest some time in helping people learn how to not only write good job postings, but how to get out of their existing networks, and candidly, their bubbles. And reach out to new communities, particularly diverse communities. You can learn how to do that, but it does take an investment in time and in educating your staff and how to do it well.
Nathan: Mac, I really appreciate your time today. I was just wondering how do I learn more about you, Mac's List, and the Find Your Dream Job podcast?
Mac: You can visit our website macslist.org. And we publish, as I said, about 500 jobs there every month as well as many articles about how to look for work. We have a section for employers too, Nathan, that provides a lot of advice about how to do effective job postings and how to improve recruitment. Every quarter we do a live webinar about how to tap the hidden job market. And I do take questions from people and people can sign up for that by visiting macslist.org/rethinkmarketing.

Claudins (CLDNs) are central components of tight junctions that regulate epithelial-cell barrier function and polarity. Altered CLDN expression patterns have been demonstrated in numerous cancer types and lineage-specific CLDNs have been proposed as therapy targets. The objective of this study was to assess which fraction of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) express CLDN6 and CLDN18 isoform 2 (CLDN18.2). Protein expression of CLDN6 and CLDN18.2 was examined by immunohistochemistry on a tissue microarray (n=355) and transcript levels were supportively determined based on gene expression microarray data from fresh-frozen NSCLC tissues (n=196). Both were analyzed with regard to frequency, distribution and association with clinical parameters. Immunohistochemical analysis of tissue sections revealed distinct membranous positivity of CLDN6 (6.5%) and CLDN18.2 (3.7%) proteins in virtually non-overlapping subgroups of adenocarcinomas and large-cell carcinomas. Pneumocytes and bronchial epithelial cells were consistently negative. Corresponding to the protein expression, in subsets of non-squamous lung carcinoma high mRNA levels of CLDN6 (7-16%) and total CLDN18 (5-12%) were observed. Protein expression correlated well with total mRNA expression of the corresponding gene (rho=0.4-0.8). CLDN18.2 positive tumors were enriched among slowly proliferating, thyroid transcription factor 1 (TTF-1)-negative adenocarcinomas, suggesting that isoform-specific CLDN expression may delineate a specific subtype. Noteworthy, high CLDN6 protein expression was associated with worse prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma in the univariate [hazard ratio (HR): 1.8; p=0.03] and multivariate COX regression model (HR: 1.9; p=0.02). These findings encourage further clinical exploration of targeting ectopically activated CLDN expression as a valuable treatment concept in NSCLC.
De 2 första författarna delar förstförfattarskapet. (The 2 first authors contributed equally to the study)
Despite improvements in therapy, the prognosis for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients remains poor, and cure is only possible in localized tumors after surgical resection. A new generation of targeted cancer drugs has led to the expectation that lung cancer therapy can be significantly improved, but these drugs are today only an option in a small subset of NSCLC patients, and their effect is temporary. Therefore, the aim of this thesis was to characterize NSCLC in order to find new treatment targets and to evaluate biomarkers that further optimize therapy selection.
In Paper I, the expression of the potential treatment targets claudin 6 and claudin 18.2 were evaluated based on immunohistochemical- and gene expression analysis. High ectopic protein and gene expression were demonstrated for both claudins in small subgroups of NSCLC. Clinical trials using humanized monoclonal antibodies against both proteins are ongoing in other cancer forms and may be extended to NSCLC.
In Paper II, the prognostic impact of the inflammatory mediator cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) was evaluated. No prognostic significance was found in a meta-analysis incorporating gene expression data of 1337 NSCLC patients. Likewise, COX-2 protein expression in tumor cells was not associated with survival in two independent NSCLC cohorts. However, in one of the analyzed cohorts, higher COX-2 expression in the tumor stroma was associated with longer survival and may therefore be a subject for further investigation.
In Paper III, tumor and stromal COX-2 protein expression was examined in patients treated with the COX-2 inhibitor celecoxib in order to evaluate if COX-2 expression is a predictive biomarker for benefit of celecoxib therapy. Celecoxib did not prolong overall survival neither in the whole cohort nor in patients stratified according to COX-2 expression in tumor or stromal cells. Noteworthy, a tendency towards longer survival was again demonstrated in patients with high COX-2 stromal expression.
In Paper IV, the diagnostic methods for identification of ALK rearrangements were assessed in a large representative Swedish NSCLC population. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), as the diagnostic standard, was compared to two immunohistochemical assays. ALK gene expression levels were incorporated to supplement the molecular data. The frequency of ALK rearrangements was lower than previously reported. The different methods to detect the ALK fusion demonstrated overlapping results. However, the overlap was poor, so the methods cannot be regarded as interchangeable and should thereby be interpreted with caution when used in clinical diagnostics.
In summary, this thesis applied an integrative translational approach to characterize potential new treatment targets and to evaluate the detection of existing predictive biomarkers in NSCLC.

$740 is an average cost to purchase all new gear for a youth player based on a study conducted in 2014.
However, RAHA offers an equipment rental program for only $50 per season available to both Skaters & Goalies!! Click Here to contact a board member for more information regarding this program.
If you're child just wants to play recreational hockey (at an out door hockey arena, or during stick and puck sessions at the arena) less equipment is required. For outdoor hockey all you really need is skates, a helmet and a stick (although new players should wear elbow pads and shin pads for more protection).

Take Control of Your Home's Power
The price of power is going up, and it will probably keep getting higher. When you buy all of your electricity from the power company, you have no say in the price you pay. And you'll keep paying their price for the rest of your life.
A Halo Solar system gives you control. You can capture the power your home needs, and even send extra power back into the grid. Illinois now has net metering, which means when your solar system generates extra power you can send it to the power company for full credit—that credit usually covers your power needs all night long, all year round. Over the life of an average system, a homeowner saves tens of thousands of dollars. That's why a solar system adds instant equity to your home—and, it's equity that's exempt from property taxes.
But a Halo Solar system does more than save you money—it reduces your dependence on the power company's coal-fired and nuclear power plants. Long-term sustainable solar power just makes sense.
Incentives for Today
Halo Solar can finance new residential systems for as little as 0 down and with interest as low as 3.99%. With the monthly savings on your power bill, you'll probably start saving money the very first day.
And now, federal tax credits and utility-funded incentives help Illinois residents shift to solar power. New solar systems can quickly pay off entirely. Your tax credit even applies to a battery backup—offering more security when power lines are down due to ice, storms, or other problems.
The biggest source of incentives is the Future Energy Jobs Act, which requires Illinois power companies to pay incentives for new solar systems. The act is now in effect, and the first-come-first-served incentives are exciting for everyone—even out-of-state solar companies who have sent representatives to work with local customers.
But the incentives for new systems, and the federal tax credit, won't last forever—and when they're gone, those companies will be gone, too.
Trust for Tomorrow
Halo Solar is a partner you can trust, from navigating the best credits and incentives to installing the best system for your needs—and meeting any maintenance needs in the future.
Trust your home to Halo Solar.

Metis in La Martinique
The main population of the island of Martinique (French "overseas department"). they are around 500,000 persons in Martinique, 350,000 people in France and 150,000 people elsewhere. They also live on the island of Guadeloupe and the Virgin Islands (U.S.), speak Creole, based on the French language, which has absorbed elements of African language and Carib Indians. They are catholic believers.
The basis of ethnicity - Métis - is formed by the mixture of French settlers and black slaves arrived in Martinique during the XVIIth century. Metis with dark skin also includes people originating from South India, and in a small number of Chinese and Viets.
Martinique is a crossroads of cultures that will definitely amaze you. This charming island allows you to meet people with different backgrounds.
To better understand the great mix of European settlers, African slaves and Asian workers they have specific names, now stripped of any racist or derogatory connotation:
- The Mulatto: Metis Black/White.
- The Quarterons: White mestizo/mulatto, that is to say white and black ¾ ¼.
- Capers: Metis Black/Mulato, ie black and white ¾ ¼.
- The Mamelouques: White/Quarteron.
- Claws: Black/Caper.
- The Chapé Coolies: Metis Black/Indians India.
And to finish this quick overview...
- The Chabins are black people with fair skin.
- The Békés are descendants of white settlers born in the Caribbean.
- The Metros (or white - France) are white Métropole installed the Caribbean.
- The white Creoles are the Metros children, born in the Caribbean.
- The Coolies are the descendants of immigrants from India Indians in the nineteenth century.
- The Madininas are the Martinicans.

Mr Ghosn is kept in an unheated cell, lost almost seven pounds and is given only rice and barley to eat, his wife claims.
In a nine-page letter, Carole Ghosn said: "My husband's is a case study in the realities of this draconian system".
Japanese authorities arrested Carlos Ghosn on 19 November and charged him with under-reporting his income by about 5 billion yen (£34m) over five years from 2010 to 2015.
Mrs Ghosn wrote to Japan's director of Human Rights Watch, calling on the organisation to "shine a light on the harsh treatment of my husband and the human rights-related inequities inflicted upon him by the Japanese justice system".
Mr Ghosn is being held in an unheated cell and is denied his medication, his wife said in the letter.
She said he had lost almost seven pounds (3kg) and only gets rice and barley to eat.
"For hours each day, the prosecutors interrogate him, browbeat him, lecture him and berate him, outside the presence of his attorneys, in an effort to extract a confession," Mrs Ghosn claimed.
"No one should be forced to endure what my husband faces every day, particularly in a developed nation like Japan, the third largest economy in the world."
"My husband is well known as a person of unimpeachable honour, honesty and integrity," Mrs Ghosn said.
Mr Ghosn has also been arrested, though not charged, on allegations over the shifting of personal investment losses worth 1.85 billion yen (£13m) to Nissan.
Last week, he insisted he had been "wrongly accused and unfairly detained" as he appeared publicly in court for the first time since his arrest.
Tokyo deputy chief prosecutor Shin Kukimoto said last week that authorities are confident they have a case.
Mr Ghosn led a global alliance between Japan's Nissan and France's Renault - which in recent years also added Mitsubishi - and he remains head of Renault.
He is credited with a spectacular turnaround in Nissan's fortunes over the last two decades.

Two-step authentication means that you can only access your Ring account by providing another piece of information besides a password. The first time you try and access a Ring product on a new device (phone or PC), you will have to enter a second piece of information in addition to your password. This second piece of information is a randomly generated code that will be sent to your mobile phone. Enter the code and you will have access to your account. This means that in the future you will have more secure access your Ring products.
Be sure you know your password before you start the two-step authentication process.
Click here for more information on finding your password.
Why should I use two-step authentication?
Two-step authentication provides an extra layer of security that a single authentication system such as a password alone cannot provide. If someone were to gain access to your password, for example, they still would not be able to access your Ring account without your trusted phone to receive the randomly generated code.
Won't two-step authentication make it inconvenient to access my devices or account?
Two-step authentication will add an extra step to accessing devices. The extra step is worth it, however, for the added security it brings.
When I enable two-step authorization, will it disable anything else I've set up such as Guest Users, Alexa integrations, or Device Groups?
No. Two-step authorization is simply a security measure. It will not affect any other settings on your Ring app.
Will I have to enter my two-step authorization every time I answer a call or use the Live View?
No. Under most circumstances the way you interact with the Ring app will not change.
How do I change the phone number on my account?
You can change the phone number on your account on your Ring account page.
How long does it take to get the code on my mobile device?
You should receive your code in less than a minute. If you don't receive a code, make sure you are sending it to the correct number.
How do I access my account if I don't have access to my mobile device?
You will need to contact the Customer Support team.
Do Shared Users and Guest Users also have to use two-step authentication?
No. Each account will have its own two-step enable/disable setting. We recommend that Shared and Guest User accounts use two-step authentication as well.
Click here to learn more about Shared and Guest Users.
What happens if I receive an authentication code that I didn't request?
If this happens there is a possibility that there's been an attempt to compromise your account. We recommend accessing your account and changing your password as soon as possible.

Dad & Newborn Pose in Playful Photoshoot Without the Use of Photoshop
Although seeing newborn baby Emilia floating above a hair dryer or jumping above her dads head would leave you you thinking that these photos have been manipulated in Photoshop, everything you see has actually been captured in camera. Emilia's parents, Ania Waluda and Michal Zawer, are both photographers by profession and wanted to prove you could take adorable baby portraits without the use of any extreme props and without the risk of danger.
The photos are actually taken on a bed. The white boarder at the bottom of the photo is actually the edge of the bed, whilst the 'wall' is really just a mattress. It's a cool and unique idea that proves you can create some adorable photos of your newborn without any risk.
The parent's told The Huffington Post, "The main idea behind this photo shoot was our daughter's safety," and added that the photoshoot resulted in some quality family time. So cute!

BBC exposes The Independent after it claims two year old Nasa footage is 'live stream from space'
The "live broadcast" was taken down after the BBC pointed out the footage was two years old and available on YouTube
THE Independent website has admitted a video it described as a "live stream from space" on its Facebook page was in fact a recording from 2015.
More than 180,000 people viewed the "live broadcast" which was ended shortly after the existing two-year-old footage was pointed out by the BBC.
The Independent became online only in 2016 and launched a fact-checking service called 'In Fact' earlier this year.
It said the service was to "expose the worst abuses of the truth, from political spin to downright lies that have come to play such a major force in the media, politics and the web".
A spokesman for The Independent said it regretted "the human error that led to the mistake".
The original footage was recorded by astronaut Terry Virts during a spacewalk in February 2015 and has been available on YouTube since April 2015.
The hour-long YouTube footage has been viewed more than 420,000 times.
The Independent labelled the video as live footage, adding: "Watch the Earth from space - and tell us where you're watching".
NASA has previously asked people to check its official social media accounts to see if a "live" broadcast is taking place to prevent old footage being passed off as new.
An Independent spokesman said: "The Independent removed a social media post... after it was brought to our attention that a video stream we believed to be - and which we described as - live was in fact footage from some time ago."

The offshore production in Malaysia has been relatively flat at around 1.65 mmboepd since the early 2000s, but with an increasing share of natural gas volumes. Sanctioning activity was relatively high before the downturn, but collapsed in 2015 and 2016. However, several gas-condensate projects such as Bergading were sanctioned in 2017, and in 2019 and 2020, several new development projects are expected to enter the tender phase. Still, the greenfield activity will be lower than before the downturn, and the offshore market will remain at the low 2016-levels towards 2023.

Do you know your body type? It might sound like a fashionista question, but in reality, said Dr. Mehmet Oz on his October 31 talk show, understanding your body type can help you prevent disease, boost your health and even facilitate weight loss.
Here's the skinny:
- You're a triangle type if you gain weight in your thighs, hips and derriere. Beat the bulges by cutting down on meat. For example, you might try a plant-based diet one day a week, and swap that steak for fish another day.
- Too much weight around your waist? Measure your waistline to check if it's larger than 31.5 inches. If so, you need to take steps to reduce your risk for some types of cancer. One solution: Consume anti-cancer food wasabi. See the recipes below or try a product such as Seapoint Farms Dry Roasted Edamame, Spicy Wasabi (click for details).
- Thighs, belly, upper arms: If you gain weight in every part of your body, you qualify as a rectangle. Slim down and strengthen by doing squats. Tip: Need motivation and guidance? Dr. Oz and his trainer Joel Harper have created a fitness DVD: YOU: On A Diet Workout (click for details).
Anti-cancer powerhouse wasabi is sometimes known as Japanese horseradish. Yoshi Kojima, Executive Chef of Tao Downtown, is an expert in creative uses for this hot food. Try the recipes here. You'll need to buy wasabi paste and powder, which is available in some grocery stores and health food stores. You can also find it online, such as Roland Wasabi Paste (click for details) or Spicely Organic Seasoning, Wasabi Powder.
Wasabi Ponzu

- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp fresh orange juice
- 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
- 1 tsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp grated lemon rind
- 2 tsp fresh lemon juice
- 2 tsp honey
- 1 1/4 tsp prepared wasabi paste
- 1 tsp grated peeled fresh ginger
Combine all ingredients and stir with a whisk.
Wasabi Peas
Makes 2 cups
- 2 cups fresh peas (thawed frozen ones will also work)
- 2 tbsp canola oil
- 1/2 tsp mustard powder
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- Sea salt
- 1/4 cup wasabi paste (made from below ingredients)
- 2 tsp wasabi powder
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tsp corn starch

Preheat the oven to 200°F (or use a dehydrator).
Coat a large baking sheet with canola oil. Transfer the peas to the baking sheet and move them around in the oil. Season with sea salt, mustard powder and garlic powder.
