A chemical that can increase the risk of cancer and has been linked to childhood development issues and other health risks has been appearing in an increasing number of places in consumers' everyday lives, and the most recent discovery features contamination in popular restaurant chains.
The chemical, per-and poly-fluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, was found in compostable bowls from Chipotle, Sweetgreen and Dig Inn, among others. Earlier this year, water sources at military camps tested positive for high levels of PFAS. The chemical does not break down, and can impact the environment in different ways: they can contaminate compost and soil, and pollute water sources.
“One thing that [makes these compounds] unique is that they’re really persistent,” said Jennifer Guelfo, an assistant professor in Texas Tech University’s Civil, Environmental and Construction Engineering Department. “That may raise the red flag a little higher than [with] some other types of contaminants.”
The New Food Economy tested fiber bowls from 14 locations of eight New York City restaurants and found that they contained high levels of fluorine, which indicates intentional treatment with PFAS compounds.
PFAS are a class of more than 4700 fluorinated compounds that are manufactured to create grease-, water- or stain-resistant barriers on a product. PFAS are called “forever chemicals” because of their persistence. These compounds are created by a chain of fluorine-carbon, which is one of the strongest chemical bonds.
Once they enter the environment and human body, they can accumulate over time and do not break down. The compounds have also been linked to increased cancer risk, thyroid hormone disruption and issues with childhood development.
The New Food Economy’s finding of the forever chemical in these bowls means that they are not compostable and instead are likely worsening soil and water quality.

News from around the country and around the globe
Dig Inn and Sweetgreen did not respond to requests for comment. Chipotle told NBC that its suppliers operate under FDA guidelines, which have certified that the company’s products meet regulatory requirements.
The FDA, which is responsible for regulating food packaging, limits PFAS concentrations to between 0.25% and 1.5%. The average amount of PFAS found in the bowls tested by the New Food Economy was approximately 2000 parts per million, or a concentration of 0.2%, Notre Dame chemist Graham Peaslee said. The average PFAS level found by the New Food Economy falls within the FDA's acceptable range.
“The important thing is not necessarily the exposure I’m going to get eating out of that one bowl, but the exposure I’m going to get from the PFAS that were released into the environment from the production of that bowl,” said Jamie DeWitt, an associate professor in East Carolina University’s Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology.
PFAS are used to make firefighting foam, food packaging (such as grease-resistant paper plates and post containers) and household products such as cleaning items, fabrics and paints. Manufacturing and processing facilities, airports, and military bases are some of the compound’s main sources. The PFAS manufactured and used at these locations are released into the air, soil and water, allowing them to spread. Human exposure occurs by breathing in the chemical, drinking it in tap water or ingesting it through contaminated food packaging.
"That's the biggest issue in my mind," Peaslee told the New Food Economy. "If you don't eat it off your wrapper, you and your kids will be drinking it out of municipal water in two months. That's the scary part."
Peaslee also said that the "worst PFA offenders" are the fire-fighting foam, carpet and textile industries and that the contamination in restaurants is "more of a constant trickle."
The Environmental Working Group, a food advocacy organization, estimates that over 100 million people are drinking tap water contaminated with PFAS. Northeastern University and the Environmental Working Group have identified 712 documented cases of PFAS contamination across 49 states, as of July 2019.
Included in this number is contamination of 206 military installations, some of which contained a PFAS detection level of more than 14 times the health advisory limit set by the EPA. The PFAS containing firefighting foam used at these training bases provides more rapid extinguishment than non-fluorine foams, but also can result in contamination of surrounding soil and water.
Scientists have known about the toxicity of PFAS for nearly 40 years. Concern for PFAS became more urgent when fluorine was discovered in the bloodstreams of people who weren’t working with the chemical, according to DeWitt.
Some PFAS compounds were voluntarily phased out by their primary manufacturers due to health risks. However, scientists know much less about the currently used PFAS compounds than they did about these other chemicals.
Studies exposing experimental animals to PFAS have linked the compound to health risks, but studies on humans have not yet been conducted.
“I think the problem is we don’t really know how dangerous PFAS is," said Jamie Alan, an assistant professor in Michigan State University’s Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology. “There isn’t enough reference data out there to say what is a safe amount [of exposure]…I think we have enough data to be concerned. But how concerned and what steps we need to take to correct these problems, we won’t know for years or decades.”
The EPA has established a health advisory level for PFAS of 70 parts per trillion, an amount that is non-regulatory and non-enforceable. The Agency has a “PFAS Action Plan” that it is using to address problems relating to the chemical and protect public health. The plan’s actionable items include conducting more research, tightening enforcement and regulating drinking water. Eighteen states currently use a collective 64 policies to regulate the compound.
“I think what we really need is consistent federal response for things like water quality standards so that each region isn’t left to develop their own strategy,” Guelfo said. “If you’re separated from a nearby community by only a political border and they have a PFAS problem, if both states have different standards, that’s going to make a nightmare for people trying to regulate the cleanup of this issue.”
Government officials are also taking regulatory action. House Democrats have introduced a bill that would require the Environmental Protection Agency to classify PFAS as “hazardous substances.” Sections 318 and 323 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 2020 addressed solutions for firefighting foam and PFAS water contamination.
The Trump administration expressed concerns for replacing PFAS-containing aqueous film forming foam with fluorine free foam before a suitable replacement has been identified. The White House also does not support the Department of Defense's provision of replacement water for sources where water is contaminated with PFAS, citing cost as a key issue.
DOD spokeswoman Heather Babb told CNBC that, as of July 2019, the department has spent over $550 million on PFAS investigations, which includes providing communities with bottled water and in-home water filtration systems. However, no plan has been established to clean up the contamination across the country, though the Pentagon estimated the project could cost roughly $2 billion, according to CNBC.
To minimize PFAS exposure, consumers should purchase a water filter, cook their own food and check the labels on food and household products before buying them, according to Alan.
“If the PFAS isn’t essential, it shouldn’t be used,” Dewitt said. “That’s really the question: do we need to continue using chemicals that don’t break down?”
Alan added that while the fluorine contained in PFAS has a purpose in firefighting foams, “PFAS’ place is not in Chipotle bowls.”
As public awareness grows, scientists still have many questions. Some areas currently being studied include PFAS’ toxicology, where and how far they can travel and the amount of its compounds currently in the environment.
“We’re finding PFAS in more and more places,” DeWitt said. “Even if we lived in a plastic bubble, the plastic might even have PFAS in it. That’s always a concern…I think our world would be a better place if PFAS were phased out.”

Most cases of erectile dysfunction occur in men who once were able to sustain an erection. Whether ED is curable or reversible will depend greatly on what is causing it in the first place.
Causes of Erectile Dysfunction
The cause of erectile dysfunction and whether it is curable greatly depends on each individual patient. Oftentimes, ED is caused by some type of physical ailment that is not related directly to the penis. There are several conditions that may contribute to ED. Some of them are:
- High blood pressure
- High cholesterol
- Heart disease
- Metabolic syndrome
Each of these medical conditions is dangerous in and of themselves. If you suffer from heart disease, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol, there are many other health conditions that can go along with it. Through diet and exercise, it is possible to lower your blood pressure or your cholesterol. If you are also experiencing symptoms of erectile dysfunction, these simple steps may also help improve blood flow, which may increase your chances of getting and maintaining an erection.
In addition to these medical conditions, there are some particular issues that may cause a man to have permanent ED. For example, a man who has pelvic surgery is more likely to suffer from ED. As with any type of surgery, there is a risk that the surrounding blood vessels and nerves will be injured. When the surgery is in the pelvic area, the nerves and blood vessels located near the penis could be damaged, causing erectile dysfunction.
Drug abuse, smoking, and alcohol abuse may also lead to a decline in erectile function.
Treating Erectile Dysfunction
There are several treatments available for ED. Most people have heard of Viagra®. This medication works by opening the blood vessels in the penis so that a better erection can be achieved. Using Viagra® does not offer a permanent solution. In addition, medications such as Viagra® and similar pills can have several side effects. Some of the side effects include diarrhea, headaches, facial flushing, nasal congestion, nausea, dizziness, and ringing in the ears.
A penis pump is another option for treating the symptoms of erectile dysfunction. The penis pump uses a tube that surrounds the penis. It is pumped until an erection occurs and then a ring is placed at the base of the penis to keep the erection. This method comes with side effects as well and is often uncomfortable. Once again, this is not a cure for erectile dysfunction, but a method to help with the symptoms.
Surgeries involving implants may be used to cure erectile dysfunction as well. However, these methods are invasive and come with the associated risks of surgery.
GAINSWave® Treatment For Erectile Dysfunction
GAINSWave® is a form of therapy that uses shockwave treatment to possibly cure erectile dysfunction. If you are suffering from ED as a result of low blood flow to the penis, GAINSWave® therapy may help to improve blood flow to the penis as it removes plaque buildup in the area. In addition, this technology helps with the growth of new blood vessels, which can reduce the symptoms of erectile dysfunction. Call your local GAINSWave® provider today to learn more about our therapy.

Navigating the vast world of FCRA compliance can be overwhelming and confusing at times to say the least. Plus the high stakes of noncompliance are high. Failing to abide by FCRA regulations puts your organization at risk for a potentially expensive and reputation-damaging lawsuit. For example, the federal fine for “willful non-compliance is actual damages or statutory damages” can be up to $1,000 per violation. But don’t worry! Background Checks for Volunteers has compiled the information below to get you on your way to understanding FCRA compliance.
The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) is U.S. Federal Government legislation enacted to promote the accuracy, fairness, and privacy of consumer information contained in the files of consumer reporting agencies (CRAs), such as True Hire. It was intended to protect consumers from the willful and/or negligent inclusion of inaccurate information in their credit reports.
The FCRA regulates the collection, dissemination and use of consumer information, including consumer credit information. Background checks are included under the FCRA. Businesses must abide by the FCRA regulations regarding background checks in order for their screening process to be compliant.
Adverse action is not hiring an applicant or firing a volunteer/employee based on background information obtained through a company in the business of compiling background information, e.g. Background Checks for Volunteers.
es. According to a 2011 report released by the FTC entitled 40 Years of Experience with the Fair Credit Reporting Act: An FTC Staff Report with Summary of Interpretations, background checks conducted on volunteers and contractors are considered for “employment purposes.” See page 32 of the report.

Gir guards get bikes to chase poachers
After losing eight Asiatic lions to poachers in March, the forest department has decided to upgrade security in Gir sanctuary area by equipping beat guards with motorcycles, appointing 300 van mitras (voluntary workers) and barricading 8,000 open wells.
The department will buy 100 motorcycles for effective patrolling. This will enable them to keep poachers at bay, while covering open wells or constructing parapets will make the Asiatic lion less vulnerable to accidents. Also, with a large number of lions venturing out of the protected forest area, the department has decided to increase vigilance outside the sanctuary. This vigil will be maintained by van mitras who will be appointed from each village in and around the sanctuary. The van mitras will also look out for poachers. The severe shortage of manpower will also be taken care of. The forest department has decided to appoint an additional 100 beat guards to add to the existing force. These beat guards would be equipped with their individual wireless sets.

Annually in the United States, an estimated 65 million women undergo cervical cancer screening; about 3.9 million (6%) will be referred for further evaluation. About 11,000 cases of invasive cervical cancer were diagnosed in 2008. Thus, Papanicolaou (Pap) test screening results in a large number of colposcopies for benign conditions.
The major potential harm of screening for cervical cancer lies in the screening detection of many cytologic abnormalities such as atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASCUS) and low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL), the majority of which would never progress to cervical cancer. Women with human papillomavirus (HPV)-positive ASCUS or LSIL on Pap testing are usually referred for colposcopy. Histological CIN 2+ is treated with cryotherapy or loop electrosurgical excision procedure. These procedures permanently alter the cervix and have consequences on fertility and pregnancy. Younger women are more likely to acquire HPV infections and be referred for diagnostic workup, and they are more likely to suffer harms from interventions for a condition that often resolves spontaneously.
Cervical cancer is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells form in the cervix.
The cervix is the lower, narrow end of the uterus (the hollow, pear-shaped organ where a fetus grows). The cervix connects the uterus to the vagina (birth canal).
Anatomy of the female reproductive system. The organs in the female reproductive system include the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, cervix, and vagina. The uterus has a muscular outer layer called the myometrium and an inner lining called...
Based on an analysis of screening records from nearly 350,000 women in Bristol, England, investigators projected that 1,000 women would need to be screened for cervical cancer for 35 years to prevent one death from the disease. For each death prevented, the authors estimated that more than 150 women have an abnormal result, more than 80 women are referred for investigation, and more than 50 women have treatment.

Jermaine Jackson's ex-wife has accused him of falling behind on his child support payments again.
Michael Jackson's brother settled a long-running dispute with his former partner Alejandra in 2011 after he allegedly failed to hand over $80,000 (£50,000) in payments for the former couple's two sons, Jermajesty and Jaffar.
However, Alejandra claims the Jackson 5 star has fallen behind again and now owes her more than $30,000 (£18,750) dating from April, 2012 until April, 2013.
She has filed a complaint and officials at Los Angeles' Child Support Services Department have asked a judge to hold Jackson in contempt of court, according to Tmz.com.
The couple married in 1995 and Jermaine filed for divorce in 2004.

Brachytherapy is radiotherapy modality, which insert radioactive sources into patient cavities or surgically to treat lung, cervix, prostate and several others types of cancer. One of its main advantages is the capability to deliver high dose to the tumor while preserving adjacent tissues with results equivalents, or even better, than teletherapy. Modern brachytherapy with 3D treatment planning systems (TPS) and remote afterloaders are now possible due to several technological advances and a good clinical outcome. However, there are no protocols that correlate the dose into the tumor volume, organs at risk and/or prescription points (e.g. Point A from ICRU38). Several international studies are aiming to correlate dose-volume using 3D TPS and medical images, as magnetic image resonance. This project aims to aid two hospitals (Brazilian and Dutch) members of the EMBRACE project that are moving to 3D planning. Commercial TPS were compared against Monte Carlo codes and treatments complexities evaluated to obtain more accurate dose distributions to the tumor and organs at risk. These results associated with source parameters and motion can lead to dose-volume calculation methodologies that are more accurate and its relation with previous treatment protocols.

Thursday is a day of infamy in weather history. 15 years ago, the No-Name storm of 1993 slammed into the west coast of Florida. A deep trough of low pressure, very cold arctic air and a developing low in the gulf all combined to give Florida both winter and seemingly tropical weather. A 12 foot storm surge struck the Big Bend area to Hernando county, swamping coastlines and destroying homes. High winds and tornadoes caused damage, and 2 inches of snow fell in north Florida. Some 26 people were killed in our state alone. Up to a foot fell in Birmingham, Alabama and the storm pounded the northeast with over three feet of snow in Pennsylvania, West Virginia and even North Carolina. Proof that you donít need a hurricane to get big storm damage.While you were hanging yourself , on someone else's words

The newly established company comes from choreographers Braeden Barnes and Ryland Early. A Chicago native, Barnes trained at the esteemed Joffrey Ballet and has worked professionally with Balletmet and Billy Elliot the Musical, and is currently employed by Visceral Dance Chicago. Early, who began his training at the ripe age of eight, has performed with the likes of Houston Ballet and Salt Lake City Ballet, and is now in his second season with Boulder Ballet. The duo met years ago, dancing alongside one another at Nevada Ballet Theater.
“A year ago, we were talking about our five-year plan; where we would be based, what we would do,” explains Early. Sharing a similar artistic vision and even performing each other's choreography over the years, the thought of forming a dance company was definitely a far-off dream for the two. Or so they thought. Days after their conversation, they were determined to make it happen. “Braeden calls me and says, ‘Let's just do it now. Why are we going to wait?’” says Early. So in the fall of 2017, the artistic company was formed.
Symbiosis, a nonprofit, gives both dancers a creative outlet during their off-seasons. But instead of forming a traditional company for ballet — a discipline at which they both excel — the new company hopes to reframe what a dance event could be.
“Symbiosis is unique, because we want to change how we view dance in today's world, and what the audience expects going into a dance show,” says Barnes. “With a Symbiosis show, you won't know what you are going to get in the performances. We want to create the unexpected in our shows.”
The first performance will be held in an industrial warehouse in Lincoln Park. In lieu of a formal center stage and tiered seats, audiences will sit in a U-shaped loop around the stage, at eye level with the performers. Above the audience is a projection screen that will show videos and candids compiled by photographer Caleb Alvarado. Contemporary-themed duets and group numbers ground the show, with a few interjections of various styles, namely a tap-dancing solo.
By way of movement, multimedia and breaking the fourth wall, Symbiosis hopes to breathe new life into the art form.
"At Symbiosis, we strive to create work through different art mediums that dance companies today are not doing," says Barnes. "Symbiosis gives me an opportunity to create outside the realm of a dance concert and to make shows that are an art experience involving dance."
Symbiosis presents Imprints, July 13 to 15, 885 Wyandot Street, $12.

The 13th Dhaka University Central Annual Theatre Festival began amid festivity on Monday at TSC Auditorium.
The six-day festival organised by DU theatre and performance studies department, in association with cultural affairs ministry, was inaugurated by Dhaka University vice-chancellor professor Md Akhtaruzzaman at TSC auditorium.
The inaugural ceremony featured show of Macbeth by DU students and an awards programme.
The theatre and performance studies department honoured thespian Ataur Rahman with special award for his contribution to theatre.
The students of the department later staged Macbeth directed by Israfil Shaheen, a professor of the department.
Macbeth, written by William Shakespeare, revolves around a Scottish general named Macbeth. The play depicts how political ambition takes its toll on those who seek power for their own sake.
The play was staged for the second time on Tuesday as part of the festival, which is featuring a total of 25 plays at two venues-TSC auditorium and TSC open field-directed by theatre teachers and students of Dhaka University, Chittagong University and Jagannath University.
Every day the festival will start at 6:00pm and will continue till 9:30pm.
The audience will be able to enjoy the plays staged at TSC open field for free, while a fee will have to be paid for attending the shows at the auditorium.
Today, the festival will feature plays like Captain Hurra at TSC auditorium and My Masterpiece, Suicide Note, Nibhu Nibhu Shuktara, Gonoghorer Kechchha, Kaya Canvas and Dhulor Din Periye at TSC open field.
Tomorrow, the festival will feature plays like Dr Fastas at TSC auditorium and Nirjan Ghodhulir Naach, Lalita Kingba Manush, Iccher Epitaph, Canteen Bhai, Shobuj Ronger Phota and Ora Chole Jay at the open field.

Shame (2011) 3/5
We're not bad people. We just come from a bad place.
Human sexuality is extremely fragile. So much so that it is rare to find adults (especially in the United States) that don't have some form of sexual hangup. This could be due to bad experiences in the past, unhealthy relationships, or just plain old ignorance. This film deals with the shame that coincides with sexual addiction (which, when it comes down to it, just about every male, and many females, have experienced on some level). Michael Fassbender was absolutely amazing as the movie's tortured subject, and the prodding direction provides a haunting and personal connection as he falls deeper into his pit of despair.

text: On 10/11/2023, Hampton Township Police were dispatched to the area of William Flinn Highway and Craighead Road for a report of a two-vehicle accident with unknown injuries. Upon arrival, the responding Officer confirmed there were no injuries and only one vehicle was directly involved in a crash. The accident was said to have happened when one vehicle approached the intersection of Craighead Road and William Flinn Highway, and did not stop at the stop sign. The vehicle then continued to make a right hand turn onto William Flinn Highway, which caused a second vehicle to swerve into the left-hand lane to avoid the collision. As a result of avoiding the collision with the at-fault vehicle, the second vehicle swerved back to the right and was unable to regain control, which resulted in the car going over the curb and into a large light pole on the right-hand side of the roadway. The second vehicle sustained severe damage and needed towed from the scene. No injuries were reported. There was damage to a PennDOT owned utility pole. Hampton Fire Department was dispatched to the scene for containment due to fluids from the vehicle on the roadway.

Claudia Perez of Los Angeles is the driving force behind L.A. on Cloud 9. Known to her friends as Cloud Nyne, Claudia is dedicated to helping the homeless in the Los Angeles community by providing meals for them and their pets. This community organization also provides clothing to the homeless in the area.
L.A. on Cloud9 is a grassroots organization founded in October 2013 and based in South Los Angeles. Word of mouth by friends, family and neighbors have brought this community together as they go about helping people and animals in need.
Claudia knows firsthand what it's like to be homeless. She was homeless back in 2009. With the help friends, as well as a strong belief in who she was as a person, Claudia has flourished in her current life as an "earth angel." A life that now includes giving back to others. I contacted Claudia by email, and she told me helping the homeless
" It's a passion I have because I know how it feels to be without. That goes with animals, I love helping them, feeding them and rescuing them."
Claudia went onto add she'd love to be able to shelter people, but at this time can only provide clothing and food. She does offer assistance in helping the homeless find a shelter.
One service Claudia and her friends provide is a buffet meal the third Sunday each month in a local area such as a park. L.A. on Cloud9 also hands out toys to the homeless children.
"I have fed so many people.. I have events in the park where people gather, bring clothes and food to hand out to anyone that needs it. I think the best feeling in the WORLD is when you help a homeless person and they HUG you, they thank you and you can honestly feel their LOVE and appreciation."
Claudia goes on to say that when you sit down with a homeless person and hear that persons story, you realize how amazing the homeless people in the community really are. Many people are under the impression that homeless people are nasty drug addicts and crazy.
Through personal contact with the homeless in her community, as well as her own experiences, Claudia has learned the homeless in her area are regular people who have lost everything. Some of their stories are heartbreaking, but others offer happy stories. Claudia does her best to help, whether it's providing necessities or just being a friend willing to listen.
If you have a donation, or would like to volunteer, please contact Claudia at (323)812-9836 or Kari at (310)408-2095. Claudia is also on Twitter @LAonCLoud9, as well as on Facebook. Her email address is LAonC9@yahoo.com.
You're doing a great service to your community Claudia. It's uplifting to see just how many communities are stepping up to help the homeless. This is something that could happen to any of us, at any time. Thankfully there are earth angels like Claudia, who bring a bit of happiness to those who have little.

I believe that each Coloradan will have the opportunity to have high quality health care, in a way each can afford.
A more fearsome picture was painted by Stephen T. Parente guest opinion ” Understanding Colorado’s 2015 health care premiums” Dec. 6. He rightly raises the concern that the recent modest increases in health care premiums are based on the subsidies from the federal government to insurance companies when their expenses exceed estimates. These subsidies, authorized by the Affordable Care Act (ACA), will end in 2017. He quotes an estimate that individual premiums will then rise 96 percent for individuals and 46 percent for families.
So, despite the advances created by the ACA, the inexorable, wasteful growth in health care spending of our fractured payment system continues to drive higher premiums, deductibles, co-pays and other out of pocket expenses. What we call insurance is really leaving many of us gambling on whether we’ll be able to afford and obtain needed care. That’s the scary part.
Mr. Parente leaves out the other significant change that the ACA will initiate in 2017.
Colorado can do much better, and that’s exactly what the ACA will invite states to do in that year. In 2017 the ACA invites states to come up with alternative plans to the exchanges, as long as they cover as many people and don’t raised federal costs. I believe Colorado can do health care better than our current system of multiple insurance companies with scores of different plans.
A group of Coloradans are organizing to gather signatures in 2015 to put the Colorado Health Care Cooperative, a payment system for universal health care for the state, on the 2016 Colorado ballot. It would give Coloradans a choice in the way we pay for our health care. This citizens’ initiative would amend the Colorado Constitution to create the basic structure of the cooperative, designating that every Colorado resident will be a member who would contribute to the pool of money used to run the cooperative.
An economic analysis performed by Dr. Gerald Friedman demonstrated that if in place in 2016, the cooperative would save $6.2 billion in administrative waste, $700,000 million in fraud reduction and $1.2 billion through increased purchasing power. Coloradans would have lifetime coverage, no deductibles, and modest co-pays. The efficiencies and savings would increase over the years.
Our fractured conglomeration of private insurance companies and government programs have profound, inherent waste. By vastly simplifying the bureaucracy of paying for our care we will be able to have robust coverage for each of us and spend less on health care than we are now.
We need health care whether married or single; disabled, able, or somewhere in between; white, black, brown or yellow; employed or out of work; rich or poor. We need our health care providers to focus on patients, not bureaucracy; we need our businesses to focus on their business not the red tape, rules, regulations and paperwork of health insurance; we need health care, without being ruined financially.
We live in a time when many doubt our ability to act together for our well-being. Whether you support the ACA or want to repeal it, we need a plan that we can depend on that we can afford and that will work for us. With the Colorado Health Care Cooperative, we can assure high quality health care for each of us, and spend less overall.
If you would like to learn more or find how you could be an active part, go to CooperateColorado.org.

Matt Catingub brings it up rather casually.
But it’s just possible that he may have met Nat King Cole.
tap here to see other videos from our team.
“I was very young at the time, so maybe I met him along the way but I wouldn’t have remembered,” says Catingub with a laugh, in an interview from Las Vegas.
What’s clear is that Catingub’s jazz-singing mother, “Polynesia’s First Lady of Song” Mavis Rivers, did meet the man over the course of her illustrious career. Her son did as well, even if perhaps only indirectly.
“When I grew up, the music I heard was my mother and it was Nat and it was Frank and Sammy and Dean and Rosemarie and Ella and Sarah Vaughan,” says the Los Angeles-born musician. “That was what I grew up with. I’m mainly a jazz musician, but I favour more of the vocal jazz. I’d rather hear a singer sing lyrics than someone play 14 choruses of be-bop.”
Whether he met Cole or not, it’s telling that the music of the legendary jazz pianist and vocalist has been a part of Catingub’s life longer than he can consciously remember. Cole died in 1965 at the tragically young age of 45, leaving behind a stunningly original and influential canon of work.

Ring and Pinion Manufacturers
What is Ring and Pinion Gears?
GNA Gears – Ring and Pinion manufacturers in India
Ring and pinion gears are the automotive hardware that rotates the motor wheels of a vehicle forwards and backward.
Ring and Pinion assemblies commonly used in the drive systems of tractor-trailers and larger pickup trucks meant to carry heavy loads, GNA Gears tops in Ring and Pinion manufacturing in India.
More information here
A ring and pinion gear set comes with a grooved ring connected to the drive axles of the vehicle’s rear wheels and a grooved pinion connected to the drive shaft. Any vehicle with rear-wheel drive, or even older cars, come equipped with ring and pinion gears. However, these gears can be replaced with sets with a higher ratio in order to improve performance.
How does ring and pinion gear works?
Below is a brief explanation. Ring and pinion assembly is the essential factor in the functioning of ring and pinion gear. Since 1946, GNA myntra is precision and to produce high performance and high quality products. Apart from ring and pinion manufacturing, GNA also manufactures bull rings, shafts, spear gear, check out more details here.
Ring and pinion gears work in combination with the drive shaft to make torque for its drive wheels. This happens as soon as the driver presses the accelerator of the car.
The drive and pinion shaft are attached and also, therefore, must spin together to build torque that consequently creates the ability that moves the wheels.
The ring and pinion work together to create torque when the driver puts power to the drive wheels. As the drive shaft, and thus the pinion, spin, the ring, and thus the drive axle and the wheels, spin correspondingly. The larger the ratio of the ring and pinion grooves, the more force is created with each spin and more power goes to the wheels.
Ratio of Grooves
Ring and pinion gears must have proper teeth ratios for optimum performance. An unprecise teeth ratio will not work correctly and over time, it will wear out.
A ring of one size and a pinion of another size might work for a while, but continued use will cause failure because the grooves will not fit together and they will grind until they are ruined.
The performance of ring and pinion gears depends on the ratio of grooves in both the ring and pinion. The bigger this ratio, the more force is created. Rings and pinions are also designed with teeth that help the drive shaft generate enough needed torque.
The pinion always has fewer teeth/grooves than the ring, and a desirable ratio is anywhere between 3.4 to 3.6.

Elizabeth blackwell accomplishments Rating:
In D.H. Lawrence's novel Sons and Lovers, relationships play a central role in the development of the main character, Paul Morel. Throughout the novel, Paul struggles to find his place in the world and to define his own identity, and his relationships with those around him are a significant factor in this process.
One of the most significant relationships in the novel is that between Paul and his mother, Gertrude. Gertrude is a strong and fiercely independent woman who has a deep love for her son and wants the best for him. However, she is also possessive and controlling, and her need for Paul's attention and affection often conflicts with his desire for independence and his own identity. This tension between Paul and Gertrude is a central theme of the novel and is ultimately a major factor in Paul's struggle to find his own way in the world.
Another important relationship in the novel is that between Paul and his lover, Miriam. Miriam is a quiet, introspective young woman who is deeply in love with Paul and wants to be with him. However, Paul is torn between his feelings for Miriam and his duty to his mother, and his inability to fully commit to Miriam causes her great pain. This conflict ultimately leads to the end of their relationship, and Paul is left to deal with the consequences of his actions.
In addition to these relationships, Paul also has a number of other significant relationships in the novel, including those with his friends and his sister. These relationships help to shape his understanding of the world and his place in it, and they also serve as a source of support and guidance as he navigates the complexities of life.
Overall, the relationships in Sons and Lovers play a crucial role in the development of the main character and in the exploration of the themes of identity, love, and family. Through these relationships, Paul is able to understand his own feelings and desires and to find his place in the world, even as he struggles with the challenges and conflicts that inevitably arise in any relationship.

Canada should leave the North Atlantic Treaty Organization because the alliance has outlived its mandate, undermines international peace and cooperation, and is a major contributor to climate change.
That was the message from panelists during an April 3 webinar hosted by the Canadian Foreign Policy Institute.
“Yes, Canada should leave NATO,” American author and activist Margaret Kimberley told participants. “Everyone should leave NATO.”
“NATO literally has no reason to exist,” she said, referring to the alliance’s original role as a bulwark against feared Soviet expansionism. “Or rather, I should say, its reason for existing is not what we have been told for the past 72 years.”
Citing the devastation and turmoil Libya continues to experience due to NATO’s 2011 intervention, Kimberley said the 30-member organization is “little more than a cartel carrying out acts of aggression around the world.”
Tamara Lorincz of Canadian Voice of Women for Peace told webinar participants the alliance is an impediment to reaching carbon emission and sustainable development goals.
“We simply cannot sustain NATO’s costly and carbon-intensive militarism over the next decade and achieve these goals,” she said. “NATO is one of the greatest threats to the climate and one of the biggest obstacles to the Paris Agreement.”
Lorincz lamented the fact defence spending in Canada – $30.8 billion last year, according to NATO estimates – greatly exceeds investments in things like diplomacy, the environment and Indigenous communities.
And that defence spending is focused less and less on UN peacekeeping and more and more on “NATO war-fighting,” she said.
Paul Robinson, a political science professor at the University of Ottawa and a former member of both the British and Canadian armed forces, questioned the relevance of NATO in the 21st century.
While it may have been “logical” for Canada to join in 1949, he said the country’s participation in the alliance makes far less sense today.
“I think one needs to balance (the) desire for influence and status with some sort of more utilitarian understanding of whether what you are doing is actually doing any good, either to yourself or to the broader community,” he said.
The NATO-led war in Afghanistan – which claimed the lives of 165 Canadians and more than 43,000 civilians – achieved “absolutely nothing,” Robinson said.
The alliance’s recent provocations toward Russia, such as in Syria and Ukraine, undermine international cooperation rather than promote it, he said. “NATO is not actually helping to provide security in Europe, because it is institutionalizing conflict between Europe and Russia.”
But progressives aren’t the only ones calling on Canada to leave NATO.
Many right-leaning think tanks, defence commentators, and military historians are recommending the same course of action, albeit for strategic military reasons rather than humanitarian and environmental purposes.
And their vision is of an even deeper security arrangement with the United States.
In a 2013 policy paper for the Canadian Defence & Foreign Affairs Institute (now known as the Canadian Global Affairs Institute), Jack Granatstein wrote: “Perhaps it might have been better if NATO had wound itself up at the end of the Cold War. The alliance instead sought a new role and found it out of area. It conducted operations in Former Yugoslavia, war against al Qaeda and the Taliban in Afghanistan, and later still an air campaign that brought down Gaddafi in Libya. None of these operations were notable successes.”
NATO offers little to Canada in terms of its own defence, he said, yet it demands plenty from Canada in terms of European security.
“Instead of pledging fealty to NATO’s hollow shell, it is time for Canadians to produce a strategy for the next twenty years,” Granatstein wrote. “Any such review will give primacy to Canada’s alliance with the United States.”
Robinson seemed to agree in part with the latter conclusion.
“It would be somewhat unrealistic to imagine that, outside of NATO, Canada could sever all military relationships with the United States,” he told webinar participants. “There’s going to be a military relationship with the United States, come what may.”
But Lorincz suggested Canada can and should sever all military ties with the U.S., including leaving NORAD.
“We need to demilitarize our understanding of security,” she said. “Security means affordable housing, safe drinking water in this country, free education, free health care, vaccines (for) everyone, public transit and action on climate change.”
Canada can do its part for “human security” through global cooperation efforts at the UN, Lorincz said.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s office did not respond to a request for comment from the Sidebar.
The Global Affairs Canada website describes NATO as “an active and leading contributor to peace and security on the international stage.”
“(NATO) promotes democratic values and is committed to the peaceful resolution of disputes,” the GAC site says. “However, if diplomatic efforts fail, it has the military capacity needed to undertake crisis-management operations, alone or in cooperation with other countries and international organizations.”
The CFPI webinar, which can be seen here, was co-sponsored by World BEYOND War and supported by Canadian Voice of Women for Peace and the Regina Peace Council.

California Native Grasses in the East Bay
Grasslands of California contain a rich mixture of native perennial and annual grasses, and an abundant, showy array of seasonal wildflowers, which are especially spectacular in years with heavy rains.
At present, most native grassland habitat is gone, due to pressure from agriculture and other man-made causes. Grassland plant communities that exist now are largely populated by non-native, annual grasses brought by early Spanish ranchers and other European settlers. Even so, today’s grasslands are still rich with a variety of native plant species and an astounding 90% of California’s rare and endangered plants. There are far more species of wildflowers than grasses in this landscape. Grasses provide habitat for many birds, insects and rodents, as well as for wildflowers.
In the East Bay, beautiful examples of grassland can be found in Mount Diablo, Briones, Carquinez Straits and the Oakland Skyline Prairie, among other locations.

Scientists using data returned by NASA’s Dawn spacecraft have found evidence of numerous landslides on the surface of the dwarf planet Ceres, which they view as evidence that the small world contains a significant amount of water ice.
Between 20 and 30 percent of all craters more than six miles (10 km) wide show evidence of landslides, which scientists believe were formed via “ground ice” processes that require a mix of rock and ice and to date have been found only on Earth and Mars.
Three separate types of landslides were identified as occurring on Ceres’ surface.
The first, known as Type 1, are round and resemble rocky glaciers and icy landslides in Earth’s Arctic region. Features that look like thick toes can be seen at the landslides’ edges.
As on Earth, most Type 1 landslides are located in Ceres’ upper latitudes, where the largest amount of ice is believed to be present near the small planet’s surface.
Most common on Ceres are Type 2 landslides, which are thin and long and found at the small world’s middle latitudes. These resemble avalanche deposits seen on Earth.
Seen largely at lower latitudes, Type 3 landslides appear to emerge from large impact craters. Scientists believe they formed when impacting objects melted ice at the impact sites.
Brittney Schmidt, Dawn Science Team Associate, and Georgia Tech Assistant Professor led the study, whose results are published in the journal Nature Geoscience.
“Landslides cover more area in the poles than at the equator, but most surface processes generally don’t care about latitude,” said Schmidt, who interprets the study as indicating Ceres’ subsurface is composed of a mix of ice and rock.
“That’s one reason we think it’s ice affecting the flow processes. There’s no other good way to explain why the poles have huge, thick landslides; mid-latitudes have a mixture of sheeted and thick landslides, and low altitudes have just a few.”
From the shape and distribution of Ceres’ landslides, the researchers estimate the volume of ice in its upper layers ranges between 10 and 50 percent.
“It’s just kind of fun that we see features on this small planet that remind us of those on the big planets, like Earth and Mars. It seems more and more that Ceres is our innermost icy world,” Schmidt said.


text: Elevated level of glycated low-density lipoproteins (glyLDL) is believed to contribute to endothelial dysfunction, which is involved in the pathogenesis and acceleration of diabetic vascular diseases. Grape seed procyanidin B2 (GSPB2) has been reported to possess protective effects against endothelial dysfunction. However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Prohibitin (PHB) is a multifunctional protein implicated in cellular survival and apoptosis. In this study, we showed that glyLDL treatment decreased protein level of PHB, reduced viability, and increased apoptosis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). PHB overexpression or GSPB2 significantly attenuated apoptosis induced by glyLDL. Moreover, PHB siRNA increased HUVEC apoptosis, along with defective mitochondria and increased levels of cytosol cytochrome c concentration, caspase-3 activity, Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, and phosphorylated Akt, whereas PHB overexpression or GSPB2 restored these changes. Our study identified PHB as an important player responsible for HUVEC apoptosis induced by glyLDL. GSPB2 protected against HUVEC apoptosis at least in part through upregulating PHB. Targeting PHB could be significant in fighting against diabetic vascular complications.

Hartman throws 4 TD passes as Wake Forest tops Syracuse
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (AP) — Sam Hartman threw four touchdown passes in the final home game of a record-setting career in…
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (AP) — Sam Hartman threw four touchdown passes in the final home game of a record-setting career in Wake Forest’s 45-35 win over Syracuse on Saturday night.
Three of those scoring strikes went to A.T. Perry and the Demon Deacons snapped a three-game losing streak.
After trailing 21-10, the Demon Deacons (7-4, 3-4 Atlantic Coast Conference) rattled off the next 35 points. The scoring spree was punctuated by Brendon Harris’ 36-yard interception return for a touchdown.
Hartman was 30-for-43 for 331 yards. With 104 career touchdown throws, he’s three away from former Clemson quarterback Tahj Boyd’s ACC record of 107.
Syracuse (6-5, 3-4) has lost five games in a row since a torrid start that put the Orange in the national rankings. Sean Tucker ran for two touchdowns and 106 yards on 16 carries and LeQuint Allen threw for a touchdown and caught a touchdown pass. Garrett Shrader was 17 of 31 for 324 yards, a touchdown and an interception.
Hartman connected with Perry for three first-half touchdown plays, including a 10-yarder to take the lead 12 seconds before the break.
Perry, who caught 10 balls for 119 yards, became the all-time Wake Forest leader for touchdown receptions with 27.
The sequence late in the first half marked a rapid turnaround. Two sacks pushed Syracuse from inside the 10-yard line and resulted in a long field goal attempt falling short. Wake Forest responded for the go-ahead touchdown and never trailed again.
Tucker had a 9-yard scoring run for the game’s first points and added a go-ahead 2-yard run in the second quarter.
Hartman’s 12-yard pass to Perry in the back corner of the end zone gave Wake Forest its first touchdown.
Syracuse used a trick play when Allen, a running back threw a 33-yard pass to Devaughn Cooper as the Orange built a 21-10 lead.
Tucker eclipsed the 3,000-yard rushing mark for his career.
Syracuse: The Orange can’t seem to sustain any success and all those good vibes from early in the season have been washed away. Problems on defense have surfaced in recent weeks, and those were magnified with defensive backs unable to make plays to disrupt enough plays in the secondary against Wake Forest.
Wake Forest: The Demon Deacons have spent a couple of weeks out of the Top 25 and they might be able to move back in with a strong finish to the season. They hadn’t reached the 40-point mark in any of their past three defeats, so the offense rediscovered some rhythm.
Syracuse: At Boston College next Saturday.
Wake Forest: At Duke next Saturday.

(Reuters) - LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers promised to "make some adjustments" after several missed opportunities cost them Game One of the NBA Finals to the host Golden State Warriors on Thursday, losing 108-100 in overtime.
James scored a team-high 44 points, his most ever in a Finals game, but felt he had not communicated efficiently enough with his team mates as he shot only 18 of 38 from the floor.
"We all have to be better, including myself," said James, a four-time league MVP who missed a long jump shot with 3.6 seconds remaining in regulation that would likely have earned his team victory at a sellout Oracle Arena in Oakland.
"I don't think I was great. I've got to do better things out on the floor to help us be more precise offensively. I've got to communicate a little bit more defensively to help our team get over the hump.
"We had so many opportunities to win this game, and we didn't. It's up to us now to look at the film, watch and make some adjustments... and be ready for Sunday (Game Two)."
James, who is back in the NBA Finals for a fifth consecutive year, was a frustrated figured after his team were outscored 10-2 by the Warriors in overtime.
"We really only had zero points as I got the lay-up at the end, but that didn't mean much because they did a good job closing it in overtime," he said.
"We had a few miscues defensively, had a couple of turnovers offensively, but we were right there. They just made a couple more plays than we made."
Defeat in front of raucous Golden State fans was soured even further for Cleveland when their inspirational All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving limped off the court during overtime after an awkward fall.
Irving, who missed two games of the Eastern Conference final due to an ailing left knee, had been in dazzling form for his team at both ends of the court with 23 points, seven rebounds and four steals.
"It was very tough to see," said James. "I just see how hard he worked these last eight days just to get himself to play at this level tonight.
"Seeing him walk out of the locker room on crutches just now, that's a tough blow for our team."
The Cavaliers later said in a statement that Irving would have an MRI on Friday and continue to be evaluated by their medical team.
