Liga playoffs, and also had one goal and three assists in 12 games in the Extraliga Qualification. . . .
F Dávid Šoltés (Prince George, 2013-15) signed a one-year contract extension with Košice (Slovakia, Extraliga). He had 14 goals and five assists in 52 games. . . .
F Tomáš Hričina (Regina, 2008-10) signed a one-year contract extension with Košice (Slovakia, Extraliga). He had three goals and 12 assists in 49 games. . . .

F Glenn Gawdin scored his third goal of the game at 2:40 of OT to give the Swift Current Broncos a 3-2 victory over the host Everett Silvertips in Game 3 of the WHL’s championship final for the Ed Chynoweth Cup on Tuesday night. . . . The Silvertips gave up a third-period lead for the second time in two games, both of which they lost in OT, and now trail the best-of-seven series, 2-1, with Game 4 in Everett tonight. . . . They’ll play Game 5 in Everett on Friday. . . . Gawdin, the Broncos’ captain, has 12 goals in these playoffs. He had a game-high eight shots on goal last night. . . .
Everett held a 2-1 lead and was on the PP when Gawdin scored his second goal of the game at 16:43 of the third period when he batted in his own rebound. . . . Gawdin had given his guys a 1-0 lead at 14:44 of the first period, only to have Everett F Riley Sutter (8) tie it one minute later. . . . F Matt Fonteyne (8) gave the Silvertips a 2-1 lead at 18:35 of the first period. . . .

The WHL’s Vancouver Giants are going back to their old home for at least two games in 2018-19. The Giants announced Tuesday that they will play two December games at the 16,281-seat Pacific Coliseum. . . . The team isn’t yet able to reveal the dates and opposition, but said in a news release that one of the games will be the annual Teddy Bear toss tilt. . . . The Giants spent 15 years playing out of the Pacific Coliseum before moving to the 5,276-seat Langley Events Centre prior to the 2016-17 season. . . . The Pacific Coliseum, the original home of the NHL’s Vancouver Canucks, will be celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2018-19.
The 2018 World Junior Summer Showcase is to be held in Kamloops, from July 28 through Aug. 4. The 11-game tournament will feature teams from Canada, Finland, Sweden and the United States. . . . Last summer, this event was held in Plymouth, Mich., and featured six teams, including two each from Canada and the U.S. . . . You will have to excuse me if I don’t get excited about this event. It has long been my opinion that top-end junior players don’t need high-intensity competition in the middle of summer when they are about three weeks from the opening of training camps and the beginning of another meat-grinder of a season. . . . But, hey, ticket packages are available, starting at $99 plus applicable fees.
It seems to be a foregone conclusion that Seattle will be granted an expansion franchise by the NHL in the not-too-distant future. Once that happens, the NBA is expected to be eager to return to Seattle. Geoff Baker of the Seattle Times writes right here about the fact that Seattle has the population base to support such teams, but “we face challenges getting that population to games in the city.” . . . This is interesting stuff.
Unless you were really incommunicado on Tuesday night, you will be aware that southpaw James Paxton of the Seattle Mariners threw a no-hitter in beating the host Toronto Blue Jays, 5-0. . . . Paxton, of course, is from Ladner, B.C. . . . Larry Stone of the Seattle Times writes that “we are seeing Paxton develop into a start right in front of our eyes, a No. 1 starter in full bloom.” . . . That column is right here.

For those who remembered him, it was almost as comforting to learn that Carl Furillo had lost his bitterness toward the end as it was unsettling to learn that he had died too young.
Not that he was the first or the youngest of the Boys of Summer to die. Jackie Robinson, who more than the others made it all possible, survived the 1972 World Series by only two days, the body once so capable ravaged by disease. He was only 53. And less than six months earlier, Gil Hodges had died of a heart attack just two days after his 48th birthday.
Furillo would have been 67 had he lived until this year`s exhibition games begin. He was born March 8, 1922 in Stony Creek Mills, Pa., where he died last Saturday. No surprise there. Furillo was the kind of guy who would be expected to die where he`d been born. He was the working stiff of the bunch. In a company of shining stars, his was the steady light which rarely called attention to itself, even when he led the league in batting in 1953, even when he threw out a runner at first.
What`s the big deal about throwing out a runner at first, you say? But Furillo was the right-fielder. Infielders throw out runners at first every game. When was the last time you saw the right-fielder do it? Furillo didn`t do it that often, but he did it now and again, which if nothing else enhanced the insecurity of any batter who rapped a sharp single over the second baseman`s head. The fellow had to know that if he did not run tolerably hard, the sharp single might go into the box score as a groundout, 9-3, and how would that look?
Yes, it was a short right field where Furillo played his home games, giving the brave fielder a chance to play shallow, especially a brave fielder who knew how to play the caroms off the high, weird wall behind him, just 297 feet from home plate down the foul line. But not every fielder is brave. Furillo was.
That home ballpark of Furillo`s was known as Ebbets Field, a name that once had a certain resonance in this country, being the home of the Brooklyn Dodgers, a name that at the time may have had more resonance in this country than any other.
For those too young to remember those days, here are two rules about discussing the past (in addition, of course, to the ironclad rule that one must never, ever quote or allude in any way to whatever it was that George Santayana said about those who do not understand it, which is everybody).
Rule 1 is never to romanticize the past. Rule 2 is never to declare any person, event or organization to be a symbol of his or its era. Eras are more complicated than that.
But all rules can be taken too far. There is romance in the world, and while perhaps no one personifies an era, some people, some entities, become associated with their time. There was a time when the common culture of the American people was associated with the Brooklyn Dodgers as much as with anything else.
Long before some public relations man coined the phrase ``America`s Team`` for his employer, the Dodgers of the 1930s, the 1940s and the early 1950s were the genuine article. In almost every bad movie about World War II
(and a few of the good ones), there was a kid in the squad who was from Brooklyn (sometimes he was even nicknamed ``Brooklyn``) and who was a lunatic about the Dodgers. In the movie ``Destination Moon,`` one of the moon-travelers (the word ``astronaut`` did not then exist) was a Brooklynite who said, as he boarded the spacecraft, ``I wonder who`s pitchin`.``
That was a time when any comedian could get a laugh in any auditorium in America simply by saying the word ``Brooklyn.`` The Dodgers may not have been the only reason for this fame and popularity, but they were an indispensable part of it. At the beginning, they were comical-the Daffiness boys who once put three baserunners on third. Then they were forlorn-the team that could never win, the team that made ``wait `til next year`` a common saying.
But when Furillo got there, in the late 1940s, the Dodgers had become more than a joke. Putting Robinson on the field made the Dodgers an important piece of American history. This transcended folk culture. It affected the rest of the world.
They were also, by then, not just a very good team, but a superb and exciting one, with a superior player at every position, except perhaps left field. They could not only hit, run and throw. They could yell, scream and fight, as Furillo did the day he attacked Giant manager Leo Durocher in the dugout in 1953.
In a 15-year career, Furillo hit .299, with five years over .300 and another five at or over .290. In 1955, the only year the Brooklyn Dodgers won it all, he hit .314 with 26 home runs and 95 runs batted in.

Nigeria is a country that has global impact in more than one ways. It is not just about oil and gas. “As of 2019, the estimated population of the country is over 200.96 million, ranking 7th in the world” (http://world population review.com/countries/nigeria-population/). World Population Review also says Lagos has a population of around 17.5 million. For Nigeria, and for Lagos in particular, malaria is a major health and economic consideration.
If I may do some maths, if each Nigerian should buy an antimalarial drug (e.g. an artemisin based drug) once a year, that would be 200 million purchases. If each round of medication costs N1000.00, that would mean a total of N200,000,000,000.00 being spent. The actual cost of malaria treatment in Nigeria is actually much more than this figure because many people take antimalarial drugs almost monthly or at least more than once a year. A reader just called me from her home in Lagos and told me she has had malarial regularly all her life, taking drugs almost monthly, and she is now 73 years old. Some people may prefer herbal medicine but many Nigerians take the surer NAFDAC approved medications. This vast expenditure is a significant consideration for Government and Big Pharma, one for the pain and the other for the gain. When I sit back to do the maths and conclude on the cost of malaria and the gains to malaria industries, I decide to keep the answer to myself. I am sitting on the fence.
Apart from the use of antimalarial drugs, there are many other consumer products used for prevention or for treatment that make malaria formidable industry.
Read Also: Malaria: The environment
To begin with, we must take preventive measures because malaria can be fatal. For example, malaria in pregnancy is a common cause of low birth weight, infant mortality, maternal anemia, and maternal fatality. A scary malaria fact is that “an African child dies of malaria every 30 seconds” if we do not take preventive measures (Roll Back Malaria, a World Health Organisation, UNICEF, and UNDP partnership founded in 1998).
One of the chief means of prevention of malaria is to avoid being bitten by the mosquito. Mosquito nets are important and effective barriers when utilized properly. Mosquito nets on windows and doors of buildings are compulsory in endemic regions of the world. Mosquito nets on the bed are necessary for people who are vulnerable, especially infants under the age of five, pregnant women, and the sick who are already weakened. Insecticide treated nets (ITNs) have been laced with long lasting insecticides such as permethrin or deltamethrin by the manufacturers and are effective in preventing mosquito bites during sleep. My 73 year old reader just told me that she does not like the mosquito net on her bed because she feels encaged with it like in a coffin and, besides, she gets us frequently to urinate and the mosquitoes have a way of slipping inside. Do not let your elders be trapped in a net with mosquitoes.
Mosquito repellant skin creams or sprays are also important for people who spend considerable time outdoors for business or leisure. Mosquito coils and repellant incense are burned to keep mosquitoes away. They may simply repel or in addition kill the insects. They can be used indoors and outdoors.
Homes, offices, and other buildings need to be regularly sprayed with insecticides to keep killing the mosquitoes that keep coming in. Water bodies and natural habitats of mosquitoes need to be sprayed with chemicals or injected with chemicals to keep the mosquitoes from breeding.
Inside our homes, we place electrical mosquito zappers, insect repelling or killer lamps, electronic insecticide injectors, and whatever can keep mosquitoes out or dead. Some people may even allow the spiders and wall geckos to stay as mercenaries in the war against mosquitoes.
However with all our barriers and preventive measures, mosquito genes mysteriously continue to mutate and generate mosquito species with new resilience and invasion techniques. They get to bite people, especially innocent infants. The genes of the malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, also continue to mutate and produce plasmodia that are resistant to know antimalarial drugs. For these reasons, we invest in research to produce malaria vaccines.
Manuel Elkin Patarroyo (born November 3, 1946) is a Colombian Professor of Pathology and Immunology and a scientist with vision. He produced the first synthetic vaccine for the prevention of malaria and transferred the patent to the World Health Organisation (WHO) (https://www.fpa.es/en/princess-of-asturias-awards/laureates/1994-manuel-elkin-patarroyo.html? texto =trayectoria &especifica=0). After his first vaccine of 1986 which was partially effective, he devoted his career to producing a 100 percent effective malaria vaccine.
In an interview, this scientist was asked: “What messages might you offer to policymakers based on your experience of research in the developed and developing world?” He replied: “Talent is without doubt equally distributed in all parts of the world. The difference lies in the possibilities which such talented people have. I endeavor to convince governments and institutions of the importance of creating centers in situ, in each country, in order to increase the possibilities for talented people to develop their potential, and to produce solutions in those places where problems are endemic.
Governments in many developing countries have little awareness of science. They have not integrated science into their discourse and daily tasks. But this is not only a matter of government policies. Our own mothers can stimulate and plant in their children the desire to be scientists. This is where everything begins. Science must be given social importance. And there must be a kind of pressure. Nowadays in Colombia 0.2 percent is invested in science and technology; and in the United States of America 2.5 percent. This gives rise to an enormous difference” (World Intellectual Property Organization https://www.wipo.int/wipo_magazine/en/2005/05/article_0002.html).

The classic 1965 sci-fi novel by Frank Herbert is finally getting an epic revamp from the 1980s adaption in Denis Villeneuve’s ‘Dune‘. Warner Bros dropped a blood-pumping new trailer to spice up the hype for the sand-soaked epic after a series of covid-related pushbacks. Denis Villeneuve, known for creating the jaw-dropping visuals of The Arrival and Blade Runner 2049 that wowed critics and audiences alike is a perfect fit for building a strong spectacle for the world of Dune.
In the trailer, Villeneuve’s grandiose style of large-scale world-building is on full display while the ensemble cast battles over the vast landscapes of planet Arrakis (a.k.a. The Dune). The story follows Paul, a warrior of House Atreides who oversees his father’s mining operation of the rare drug ‘melange’ or ‘the spice.’ This valuable resource grants superhuman abilities as well as being a palpable fuel source. A mysterious denizen of the Dune gives Paul prophetic dreams that lead Paul to a full-scale war as a variety of factions battle over the miracle drug.
The film has a star-studded cast that includes Oscar Isaac, Josh Brolin, Rebecca Ferguson, Dave Bautista, Jason Momoa, Zendaya, and the star, Timothee Chalamet. Even more the long-time Warner alumnus Hans Zimmer joins to compose the official soundtrack. It should be mentioned that Villeneuve is splitting the film into a two-parter believing that the world of Dune is too vast to be properly contained within one trip to the theaters. Nothing is official just yet on a sequel, but that outcome is very likely judging from the current hype.
Skeptics can find some respite in that the film will be screened at the Venice International Film Festival on September 3rd, for a whole month, and will have some changes before it’s released in theaters and on HBO Max the same day: October 22nd, 2021.

On the most recent episode of the "Rhizome Report," team member William McKenzie spoke with Russell Shirey of UBIK Capital about ICON's governance model the P-Rep election, and the future of ICON.
UBIK team members have been involved with the ICON project since early 2017. "We were very attracted to the ICON project with the high-level goals of interconnectivity as well as their model for proof-of-contribution and really allowing everyone who holds ICX to actually be able to vote through staking and have a voice," said Shirey.
"We have become more involved with the ICON project over the last several months, becoming ICON ambassadors to spread the word about ICONSENSUS, which is the election of the P-Rep candidates," continued Shirey. Ultimately, they made the decision to apply as a P-Rep candidate as well. "We really just wanted to become more involved and we saw an opportunity to apply as public representatives and really be a voice for the ICON community."
William and Russell then discussed how their two P-Rep teams - Rhizome and UBIK, respectively - were started in order to fill a perceived gap in the amount of original ICON content that was available. Beyond UBIK's content strategy, however, is the fact that their team also has a background in development.
"We built a DApp called breadcrumb, which focuses on giving users back control of their location data so they can either keep it private, or if they do choose, they can sell that data in the future and be able to actually benefit from it," said Shirey.
Russell also highlighted the strength of UBIK's node operation: "We've run multiple nodes for multiple different servers, so we have one on Amazon Web Services based out of the United States, and then we also have a node through a local provider out of Europe. We think it's important to have multiple options and be able to have resilience in the nodes."
Meanwhile, leading up to the P-Rep voting, UBIK has been focused on interacting with ICONists on all communication channels regarding the importance of not only voting, but voting for quality representatives who will act with the best interest of the network in mind.
Next, the discussion shifted to the idea of P-Reps giving back a portion of their rewards – an idea UBIK supports and is embracing as a candidate.
"It's actually a key proponent of our proposal. I want to be clear: we are strongly against P-Reps giving rewards simply to gain votes with no benefits to ICON. We don't think that's a benefit for the ICON ecosystem long-term and really just incentivizes people to vote for that P-Rep just based on earning more rewards.
"However, we do support giving back rewards to the community through different manners if it benefits ICON. And this can be through grants to the ICON community, or what we've implemented is a system where we provide further rewards for ICONists to stake for long periods of time," concluded Shirey.
Shirey also made sure to point out that the amount of distributed rewards will be 50% of UBIK's overall profit from service as a P-Rep, meaning after various costs, including resources they use for development and other projects.
By requiring ICONists to stake for 6-months, UBIK believes removing these tokens from circulation will have a benefit on price, as supply decreases. UBIK also believes it's important to have long-term security for staked ICX as well, which they believe this reward model incentivizes.
After spending some time discussing the specifics of UBIK's rewards proposal, Russell pointed out the importance of diversity among the P-Rep teams:
"I just think it's important to have a diverse community of P-Rep teams; there's 22 P-Reps, and it's good to have different ideas and we definitely welcome those different ideas. There's a lot of great teams developing a lot of neat tools, software, Dapps, software, videos. I think teams should cater to their strengths, so we can form an overall diverse and strong ICON network," he said.
The two then shifted to discussing possible pitfalls in the project. After pointing out all the ways ICONists have a voice in the governance of ICON – by voting for P-Reps, and eventually DApps and ecosystem expansion projects - he also reminded us that they have responsibility as well.
"If ICONists don't vote for teams that are contributing the most, then the system won't work as it's designed," said Shirey. "ICON thought through this and they implemented some penalties which resulted in the ICX tokens actually getting burned – so 6% of tokens delegated to P-Reps who perform maliciously or underperform in their node operations results in ICX getting burned – so this actually encourages ICONists to distribute their votes across multiple P-Reps to lower the risk, and also to educate themselves on good P-Rep teams so they end up not voting for malicious teams or teams that underperform."
When it comes to paving the way for mass adoption, William and Russell took time to discuss the various development projects and initiatives their respective teams were already working on or planned to work on in order to grow the value of the ICON network.
"I think for cryptocurrency to be widespread and be useful across the world and gain that mainstream adoption we need to have DApps that are widely used in all areas of life," concluded Shirey.

Continuing Education Activity
Chancroid is an exceedingly rare sexually transmitted infection, both in the United States and globally. Knowledge regarding its true prevalence is made difficult by the lack of readily available diagnostic testing and by its similar presentation to other more common causes of genital ulcer diseases. This activity reviews the evaluation, treatment, and complications of chancroid and underscores the importance of an interprofessional team approach to its management.
- Discuss the pathophysiology and histopathology of chancroid infection.
- Describe the evaluation process that should be employed to lead to a diagnosis of chancroid infection.
- Review the treatment options recommended in patients with chancroid.
- Outline interprofessional team strategies for improving care coordination and communication to improve outcomes in patients who present with chancroid.
Chancroid is an exceedingly rare sexually transmitted infection, both in the United States and globally. Understanding its true prevalence is made difficult by the lack of readily available diagnostic testing and similar presentation to other more common causes of genital ulcer diseases.
Haemophilus ducreyi is the causative organism in chancroid. It is a small gram-negative rod that requires special media, not easily available in most laboratories, to ensure its growth.
Chancroid is extremely rare in the United States and other developed countries. Challenges to understanding its true global incidence are based on difficulties in isolating the causative agent and the limited diagnostic and surveillance modalities available to the clinician.
In the United States, only seven cases in six states were reported to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 2016. The reported cases involved a spectrum of individuals, including minorities, heterosexuals, prostitutes, and those who engage in their services. As chancroid is a genital ulcerative disease, its lesions are more readily apparent and, therefore, more commonly reported among men. Uncircumcised males tend to have a greater incidence than those individuals who are circumcised. The likelihood of transmitting the disease to an infected individual during a single sexual encounter has been noted to be 0.35.
Chancroid also has been found to be a significant cofactor in the heterosexual acquisition and transmission of HIV disease. Genital ulcers may increase the risk of HIV infection by as much as 50- to 300-fold per each unprotected encounter of vaginal intercourse. This phenomenon occurs by increasing the infectiousness of and host susceptibility for HIV infection. Interruption of the mucosa in genital ulcer disease provides a portal of entry for HIV. This, combined with an increase and activation of HIV susceptible cells, allows for enhanced viral replication and the acquisition of HIV disease.
HIV disease, in turn, may alter the appearance and clinical course of chancroid. This may include an increase in the incubation period, multiple ulcerating lesions, delays in healing, and poor response to standard courses of antibiotics, or treatment failures.
It has been experimentally demonstrated that inoculation with one colony-forming unit of Haemophilus ducreyi results in papule formation in 50% of individuals. This increases to papule formation in 90% of individuals after inoculation with 100 CFU.  Gene clusters have been noted in H. ducreyi, which encode for a cytolethal distending toxin similar to those found in invasive enteric bacteria such as Campylobacter, Shigella, and Escherichia coli. This toxin causes irreversible cell cycle death of epithelial cells and may lead to the development of skin breakdown and subsequent ulcer development.
H. ducreyi is a small, fastidious gram-negative rod that requires an enriched growth medium cultivated in a high humidity, CO2-enriched environment. On Gram stain, long strands of organisms are seen in a pattern often referred to as a "school of fish" or "railroad track" in appearance. One may use this pattern when interpreting clinical specimens, but its presence is inconsistent, and therefore, its absence should not be viewed as eliminating H. ducreyi as the causative agent.
History and Physical
Chancroid predominantly affects younger sexually active individuals in the 21 to 30-year-old age group. This group reflects a large proportion of career sex workers and the typical younger male population in developing countries that partake of their services. An asymptomatic carrier state has been noted among women, potentially allowing for the unsuspected transmission of the disease.
The incubation period is typically 4 to 10 days after experiencing a minor trauma or microabrasion during sex. Common sites of infection in men are the corona, prepuce, or glans of the penis. In women, common sites frequently noted are the labia, introitus, and perianal areas.
Typically, an erythematous papule develops at the site of inoculation, which quickly becomes a pustule and subsequently develops into an extremely painful ulcer with soft irregular margins, often referred to as a "soft chancre." Multiple ulcers may be noted either as a result of multiple areas of microtrauma or as a result of direct contact between two adjacent areas resulting in "kissing ulcers." The ulcer typically has a friable base with yellow-gray exudate, which easily bleeds when abraded and varies in size, typically from 1 to 2 cm. Left untreated, the lesion spontaneously resolves within 1 to 3 months.
Tender, often unilateral, regional lymphadenopathy develops in approximately 50% of infected individuals. Approximately 25% of these individuals within 1 to 2 weeks of the presenting papule will progress to manifest suppurative buboes, which may spontaneously rupture. Left untreated, these suppurative regional lymph nodes may become superinfected, leading to deep tissue destruction and disfigurement of external genitalia.
The diagnosis of chancroid based on clinical findings is made challenging by its potential similarities to lesions associated with other more common causes of genital ulcer disease such as syphilis and herpes infections. Because of this confounding presentation, diagnostic testing for both syphilis and herpes should also be done in these patients.
Gram stain of the exudate may show the typical "school of fish" findings of gram-negative rods, but the sensitivity and specificity of such testing have been found to be poor and unreliable.
As such, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has put forward recommendations in consideration of a diagnosis of chancroid. A definitive diagnosis requires identification of H. ducreyi on special culture media. This culture media is neither widely nor consistently available to general public health entities and when used, has a sensitivity of less than 80% when compared to PCR.  In addition to this challenge, there is no FDA-approved PCR test available for the H. ducreyi, leaving individual laboratories with the task of developing their own CLIA verified PCR studies.
Instead of laboratory diagnosis, a presumptive clinical diagnosis can be made if all of the following are present:
- One or more painful genital ulcers.
- Clinical findings, the appearance of genital ulcers, and any presenting regional lymphadenopathy are consistent with chancroid.
- No evidence of Treponema pallidum infection by darkfield microscopy of the exudate or by a serologic test performed at least 7 days after the onset of ulcers.
- A Herpes simplex virus PCR test or culture performed on the exudate is negative.
Treatment / Management
Untreated genital lesions associated with chancroid in individuals not seeking care will spontaneously resolve within 1 to 3 months. Untreated individuals run the risk of progressing to painful regional lymphadenitis and, in approximately 25% of cases, the development of suppurative buboes.
In the early 1990s, the World Health Organization (WHO), given the difficulties in identifying the causative agents in genital ulcer disease (GUD), recommended the implementation of syndromic management of these diseases. Fully implemented by 2000, this has led to a precipitous decline in chancroid, leaving genital herpes simplex to be the leading cause of genital ulcer disease.
Antibiotic treatment should be initiated for any individuals with either a confirmed or presumed diagnosis of chancroid. Consideration should be given to frequent coinfections, most often with either syphilis or herpes, and the potential need to initiate empiric treatment if there is any question regarding compliance in follow-up with diagnostic testing. In addition, the role played by chancroid as a cofactor in the transmission of HIV should trigger testing or treatment of known HIV positivity.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends the following antibiotic options:
- Azithromycin 1 gm, orally as a single dose or
- Ceftriaxone 250 mg, intramuscularly (IM) as a single dose or
- Erythromycin 500 mg, orally 3 times per day for 7 days or
- Ciprofloxacin 500 mg, orally twice a day for 3 days
Objective improvement in symptoms and findings should occur within one to 2 weeks of the initiation of antibiotics, although the response of the associated regional lymphadenitis may occur more slowly. Fluctuant lymphadenitis may require needle aspiration or incision and drainage to assist in their resolution.
Lack of improvement with appropriate antibiotics may be the result of incorrect initial diagnosis, coinfection with another sexually transmitted infection (STI) or HIV, drug resistance, or non-compliance with multi-dose regimens.
Sexual partners should be treated if exposed within the preceding 10 days of symptom development. Reinfection is possible due to contact with the source individual without the use of barrier protection, although it has been experimentally demonstrated that initial treatment with single-dose azithromycin may offer prophylactic protection for as long as 7 weeks after treatment.
The differential diagnosis includes herpes simplex infection, the most common cause followed by syphilis, and then distant chancroid. Clinical differentiation is difficult and inaccurate and may be made additionally challenging by co-infection with HIV or superimposed bacterial infection. Consideration should also be given to granuloma inguinale in the appropriate endemic setting and lymphogranuloma venereum if inguinal lymphadenitis is noted.
Prognosis is an expected full recovery with antibiotic treatment, although lesions will spontaneously resolve without treatment, as previously noted. Lack of treatment puts the patient at risk of developing suppurative lymphadenitis. Non-response to treatment should trigger a further investigation as to the causative organism or the patient's compliance with the treatment regimen.
Complications associated with chancroid include the development of fistulous tracts secondary to suppurative lymphadenitis and the destruction of the deep tissues of the genitalia by either secondary or superinfection by anaerobes such as Bacteroides or Fusobacterium.
Deterrence and Patient Education
Patient education should be directed toward the use of barrier protection during intercourse, most effectively through the use of condoms. Patients should be advised as to the risk of re-infection and recommend their source contact for antibiotic treatment.
Pearls and Other Issues
- Chancroid represents an increasingly small number of the total cases of genital ulcer disease.
- Chancroid is a difficult clinical diagnosis, and syndromic management should be the mainstay of treatment.
- Regional lymphadenopathy develops in approximately 50% of infections.
- Single-dose antibiotic treatment is the preferred management approach.
- Genital ulcer disease has been found to be a significant co-factor in the transmission of HIV disease.
Enhancing Healthcare Team Outcomes
The management of chancroid is interprofessional. A primary care provider initially evaluates the patient. The diagnosis can be difficult and does require a consult with infectious disease. Nurses participate in the evaluation, treatment, and education of patients. Pharmacists review medications, check for interactions, and provide patient education. The condition requires treatment with an antibiotic, but all patients need a workup for other sexually transmitted infections. Safe sex education is recommended for all patients. Once chancroid is treated, the outcomes are good.

Thanks for the advice. The lever for the hot/cool air was sticking and the previous owner showed me how to fix it underneath the passenger footwell. I am installing an Alpine head unti from my other car on Saturday, so I will be sure to check the connections to the HVAC system. I do not really know what to look for but I will see if anything is out of the ordinary. I would just hate to make a trip to the dealer to pay out the butt for a simple fix.
|08-03-2006 10:44 PM|
|4Jeepn||AJ welcome. Sounds like the door for the HVAC system is sticking on you. HAve you taken appart the center dash yet and looked to see of everything looked okay with the control pod? Just pop the front long plastic section that butts upto the windshiled them unto 2 screws and pop the center overlay off the hvac and radio controlas.. then I think its 4 screw to remove the unit it self. look it over and hopefully someone else may chime in with more info.|

New TJ Owner...have question
I recently picked up a 98 Sport Utility for a fantastic deal. The Jeep is in pristine condition. It's a stick (no other way to have it). Everything seems to be working fine except one little issue. Hot heat is coming from underneath the dashboard and it blows on the driver's and passenger's feet. I tried to look underneath to see what what going on but I could find nothing. The whole climate control lever and switches are having issues. Can anyone guide me in the right direction as to what may be wrong? The air is so hot that it burns my feet when I am driving with sandals.

Josh Wayner didn’t get a lot of argument yesterday when he pronounced the .357 Magnum one of the most effective and versatile rounds ever invented. And while there are plenty of great Ruger and Smith & Wesson revolvers out there chambered for the .357 (I have a couple of K and N frame examples that put a grin on my face every time I take them out of the safe) perhaps no revolvers are as prized among wheel gun aficionados as Colt’s snake guns.
And among snake guns, the cream of the crop is the Python, a gun many consider to be the finest production revolver ever made.
When Logan Metesh isn’t writing for us, he spends most of his time working at the NRA National Firearms Museum in Virginia. Which means he gets to fondle some of the most prized and historically significant firearms ever made.
In this video, he reveals that the NRA Museum is in possession of three beautiful examples, serial numbers 2, 3 and 5 in the Python line. So while they may not actually be his, he has regular access to a trio of the most drool-worthy examples of the pistol maker’s art. And that’s about as close as most of us will ever get to Python.

The problem is not the stress from the weight of your U-lock.
The (true) stress comes from the compressional hoop stress of the bracket to the carbon fiber tube. The bracket stays in place thanks to the friction, which requires certain amount of compression.
Unfortunately, this hoop compression coincidentally directs at the weakest point of this (tubular) design. Buckling will appear over time if enough compression is applied.
It is hard to say whether a simple bracket would cause the bike frame to fail. It depends on the user (over-torque), the design of the bracket (causing notch/localized stress on the frame), and how the frame was design (strength of carbon fiber in certain direction), etc.
There are many example of this failure type, one of which is the failure of carbon seat post. Usually, the bike frame (clamping type) was not designed to accomodate carbon seat post and cause large compressional hoop stress to the seatpost. That is why the seatpost often fail, not because of the product quality, but often the mis-use from the user.

“It’s indisputable that his termination was a result of Trump’s unrelenting retaliatory campaign of false information, attacks and direct appeals to top officials,” Aitan Goelman, Strzok’s lawyer, said in a statement. “Today, Pete Strzok is fighting back, and sending a message that the Administration’s purposeful disregard for constitutional rights must not be tolerated.”
Strzok, who joined the FBI in 1996 as an analyst on terrorism cases, was once one of the bureau’s go-to agents for espionage and counterintelligence work, and he was a key figure in both the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server while she was secretary of state and the inquiry into whether the Trump campaign had coordinated with Russia to influence the 2016 election.
But in the course of that work, Strzok began exchanging politically charged text messages with an FBI lawyer, Lisa Page, with whom he was having an affair. The messages, sent on work phones, were critical of numerous politicians, but none more so than Trump, who Strzok derided as “abysmal” and a “disaster.”
In August 2016, after Page wrote Trump was “not ever going to become president, right? Right?!” Strzok responded: “No. No he’s not. We’ll stop it.”
The Justice Department inspector general found that message “implies a willingness to take official action to impact the presidential candidate’s electoral prospects.” Strzok, who had been assigned to work with special counsel Robert S. Mueller III, was removed from the Russia investigation when the messages were discovered, and in August 2018, he was fired from the FBI.
The FBI had first proposed firing Strzok a few months earlier, writing in a notice that the messages would “be the subject of damning public discourse for days, months, and even years to come, and the FBI will be recipient of the expressed outrage.”
But FBI Assistant Director Candice Will, who runs the bureau’s Office of Professional Responsibility, ultimately determined Strzok should be demoted and suspended for 60 days, according to the suit. She was overruled by FBI Deputy Director David Bowdich, who determined that Strzok’s “sustained pattern of bad judgment in the use of an FBI device” had called into question the FBI’s decisions in the Russia and Clinton email investigations, according to the suit.
Strzok alleged in the suit that others in the bureau had not received similar discipline for criticism of Clinton, and he claimed Bowdich’s decision was the “direct result of unrelenting pressure from President Trump and his political allies on Capitol Hill.” Trump had repeatedly attacked Strzok publicly and privately and called for his firing.
Strzok asserted in the suit that his sentiments were “protected political speech,” and that his termination violated the First Amendment. He conceded that while the Hatch Act restricts the political activities of some employees, he had not violated even that law, and noted that Trump had rejected a recommendation to fire a senior White House adviser, Kellyanne Conway, for her violations of the Hatch Act.
Strzok alleged in the suit that the Justice Department had violated the Privacy Act in releasing his and Page’s texts, and violated his Fifth Amendment rights in not allowing him to appeal Bowdich’s decision to a disciplinary review board.
The suit was filed in federal court in the District of Columbia.
Justice Department and FBI spokeswomen declined to comment.

Megazine Turns Epic
After just eight issues the Dennis the Menace and Gnasher Megazine has gone through a name change, perhaps suggesting sales aren't as high as anticipated. As of issue nine the comic will now go by the name of Dennis the Menace and Gnasher's Epic Magazine - an even longer title than before!
The cover of issue nine can be seen in the blurry picture above, and to be honest it's very disappointing, with everything just looking like a horrible mess, as though somebody accidentally dropped all the issue's images onto the front cover, and just decided to leave them there.
I have no idea what changes, if any, the new name will bring to the comic. The price tag is still the same of £3.99 a month.

The government intends to take reform steps concerning public funds, such as specifying the employment ceiling in public institutions, increasing service fees, and imposing value added tax (VAT) on companies’ profits and consumers especially the luxury products, reports Al-Rai daily quoting sources.
Sources disclosed the Cabinet discussed in its recent meeting the document on the diversification of revenues and government expenditures prepared by an economic team in the Ministry of Finance. Sources said some of the steps mentioned in the document include the introduction of tolls on some major roads similar to that of Dubai and other cities in the world. Sources explained the revenues collected from toll stations will be used in the maintenance of roads and construction of new ones to expand the road network in the country.
Moreover, sources revealed the document suggested comprehensive review of the pricing mechanism for commodities and services offered to the public, since most of which are offered at very low fees considering the actual cost. Sources clarified this step will improve services such that they reflect the actual cost and enhance non-oil revenues.
The document also called for reviewing fees collected by the government for the services it provides and the land it rents out; thereby, enhancing non-tax revenues and diversifying sources of public income. According to sources, the document also tackled the introduction of taxes on companies and unification of profit tax, which is currently applied only on foreign companies.
The introduction of taxes on companies, including local companies, will greatly contribute to bearing the cost of subsidized commodities and services like water, electricity and infrastructure, as well as the services offered to expatriates.

The Department of Agriculture has received orders to prepare for a dry spell as a result of El Niño. According to AccuWeather, El Niño is a climate pattern that raises sea temperatures in the Pacific Ocean. Such a system can contribute to drought conditions due to reduced rainfall.
During a radio interview with RMN DYHB-Bacolod, Agriculture Secretary Emmanuel Piñol said, despite meteorologists predicting El Niño to end in April or May, Negros Occidental, Mindoro, and Palawan could still experience dry conditions until at least November of this year.
He said a dry spell is already affecting farmers in Negros Occidental.
The provincial government, meanwhile, has already implemented El Niño mitigation measures with Negros Occidental Governor Alfredo Marañon, Jr. indicating they have already requested the department to conduct cloud seeding operations in the province.
According to the cabinet official added, funds have already been allocated for cloud seeding in the province.
A statement released by the Department of Agriculture-Western Visayas earlier this week claimed weak El Niño conditions are expected throughout the rest of March.
“We are experiencing weak El Niño, particularly in southern Iloilo and Antique,” stated field operations division chief Rene B. Famoso.
However, he noted, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) offered an extended forecast.
“Based on the recent forecast of PAGASA, it may last up to June,” Famoso added./DGB, WDJ

What the heck is a tigernut? Where does it even come from? Is it a nut? Where do I buy it? My bewilderment held me back from even trying it for months. I decided to take a chance and it completely changed the way that I bake! Tigernuts are actually a small root vegetable that originated in Africa. Yes, a legit paleo ingredient.

We have never used an agency before, so this was a new experience putting all of our plans and itinerary into NV's hands.

Garden soil additives help plants thrive by adding things lacking in the ground, but you have to choose carefully for the best results. There are many from which to choose, and if you don't know about the benefits of peat humus vs. compost, it is wise to educate yourself. You'll need to test your soil first to see if there is a pH imbalance, excess salt or nutrient deficiencies. Then, move on to learning about things like peat moss, peat humus, clay soils and topsoil.
Is Peat Humus the Same as Peat Moss?
Peat humus and peat moss are both made from sphagnum moss, but humus is a highly decomposed substance, while peat moss is only semidecomposed. The humus is suitable for mulching and improving soil fertility, while peat moss is best used for improving soil aeration, adjusting soil pH and propagation. This distinction can be confusing, so what exactly is the difference between peat and humus?
Video of the Day
Peat humus and peat moss often get confused because the terms are so similar, and you can use them in similar ways. Peat moss is a spongy material formed when organic matter, like plant materials, partially decomposes in wetlands, like bogs and swamps. Humus takes much longer to form, and it is basically what's left over after decaying plants, insects and animals break down into the tiniest molecules possible. Peat humus is darker and has a finer texture; it consists of thoroughly decayed material, unlike peat moss.
Is Peat Humus Good for Vegetable Gardens?
Both peat humus and peat moss can be good for vegetable gardens. Peat moss is a good soil amendment because it adds water-retaining properties and acidity to a garden; for example, it helps with crops like tomatoes that do best with a soil pH of 3.5 to 4.5. Mix the peat moss with additional materials, like compost and perlite, for the best results. To add it to an established garden, add a 2- to 3-inch layer to the soil and mix down 12 inches until it's well incorporated. Since it decays so slowly, it should last for several years.
Peat humus is also great for acid-loving plants and can give tomato gardens a real boost. It doesn't provide nutrients, though, so you'll need to regularly add organic fertilizer and water. Peat humus for clay soils is also a good benefit because these soil types are slow-draining and heavy; it also provides a structure for raised beds.
Should I Use Humus for My Plants?
Peat humus does not contain nutrients but provides structure; retains moisture, nutrients and heat; and provides acidity. Steer clear of amorphous peat humus because it is highly acidic and has a poor structure; granular peat humus has a better structure and is less acidic. Besides tomatoes, humus is a suitable soil amendment for azaleas and gardenias. It's only used in soil mixes since it doesn't contain nutrients.
You don't want to add peat humus to compost since the humus doesn't need to break down. You can add peat moss to your compost pile, though, since it improves the overall moisture retention of the pile. If you want to help your lawn, choose to add a top dressing of peat moss combined with topsoil and sand. Peat moss is also better for potted plants and seed starting because it's lighter and less expensive.

Escobar Inc. launches new foldable screen phone
Just over a month after making noise when launching into the electronics world, Roberto Gaviria, brother of drug dealer Pablo Escobar, is back with a new flexible screen cell phone. Escobar Inc., a company that represents the interests of the family, announced on Monday, 3, Escobar Fold 2.
As well as the first version, the new Escobar Fold wants to earn in price, which range from US $ 400 to US $ 550. Samsung's Galaxy Fold, sold at US $ 1,980 in the USA. The comparison with the Samsung device, however, goes beyond the price. The new Escobar Fold seems to have been inspired a lot by the Korean giant's device: it has a 7.3-inch open screen and an auxiliary screen when closed, in addition to having very similar notches and positioning of the cameras.
The copy charge is also nothing new for Escobar Inc: the first generation of the phone was compared to the FlexPai, owned by the American Royole, the first flexible screen phone launched. Aside from the uncomfortable similarity with the competition, the new Escobar Fold promises some interesting specifications: Snapdragon 855 processor, 4,380 mAh battery, camera set with 5 lenses, main screen with a resolution of 2,152 x 1,536 and Android 10.
Escobar Inc. entered the technological world two years ago, when it decided to work on its own smartphone. Pablo and Roberto have always been interested in innovation, he said in December state Olof Gustafsson, who presents himself as executive president of Escobar Inc ..
In fact, since December, the company has expanded its portfolio. In addition to cell phones, the company now has speakers, headphones, power banks with the drug dealer logo printed on them.
Repetition of sexist campaign
In return, Escobar Inc. repeated the sexist marketing strategy, which had a strong impact, almost none positive, on the launch of the first device. Again, the company posted photos and videos of women wearing lingerie while interacting with the device. When launching the first device, Gustafsson justified to the state the choice by type of material.
These girls are a good representation of our brand. If you want to buy a Pablo Escobar, you want something cool, sexy and new, he says. We can be professionals and have a simple video from the phone, but the difference is that we are Pablo Escobar and we can do whatever we want. We had a lot of girls, we took the best and made it happen, my friend, he said.
Escobar Inc. also came back attacking Samsung: in one of the videos released by the company, girls in minimal suits appear to be destroying a Galaxy Fold. The Korean giant did not manifest.
For those who are excited, good running: according to the company, only 200 thousand units of the device were produced.

Dr. Kothari’s vision for a healthy movement
The providers at Capital Women’s Care Hagerstown are concerned with the troubling obesity trend facing not only our nation but also our local community. A national survey ranked Hagerstown as the fifth most obese community in the country. This statistic and the concern for our community resulted in Dr. Mitesh Kothari bringing together a group of doctors, health professionals, educators, and personal trainers to server as the board of directors for a new non-profit dedicated to changing this trend.
H.E.A.L. (Healthy Eating and Active Lifestyles) is dedicated to working toward prevention of obesity for a healthier community. The board of H.E.A.L quickly identified that one of the reasons that Hagerstown’s numbers were
so severe was a lack of free help for overweight people. Taking a proactive approach to deal with this problem was to offer programs such as Fitwalks. Fitwalks, features a personal trainer leading walkers around the Hagerstown Fairgrounds each Saturday morning. H.E.A.L also features a Health Talk lecture series that highlights a new topic every month. Subjects range from tips on exercise to healthy cooking demonstrations.
For more information on H.E. A.L. go to their website and get involved!
