Health implications of the influence of diet on the gut microbiome
Abstract (as presented by the authors of the scientific work):
"Recent studies have suggested that the intestinal microbiome plays an important role in modulating risk of several chronic diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease, obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. At the same time, it is now understood that diet plays a significant role in shaping the microbiome, with experiments showing that dietary alterations can induce large, temporary microbial shifts within 24 h. Given this association, there may be significant therapeutic utility in altering microbial composition through diet. This review systematically evaluates current data regarding the effects of several common dietary components on intestinal microbiota. We show that consumption of particular types of food produces predictable shifts in existing host bacterial genera. Furthermore, the identity of these bacteria affects host immune and metabolic parameters, with broad implications for human health. Familiarity with these associations will be of tremendous use to the practitioner as well as the patient."

Conclusion and future directions (as presented by the authors of the scientific work):
"In conclusion, review of the literature suggests that diet can modify the intestinal microbiome, which in turn has a profound impact on overall health. This impact can be beneficial or detrimental, depending on the relative identity and abundance of constituent bacterial populations. For example, it has been shown that a high-fat diet adversely reduces A. muciniphila and Lactobacillus, which are both associated with healthy metabolic states [53]. This observation provides a good example of how dietary intervention might potentially be used to manage complex diseases, such as obesity and diabetes. Furthermore, advances in microbiome research have suggested novel therapeutic possibilities for diseases that have traditionally been difficult to treat. For example, the fecal microbiota transplant has been used successfully to manage several different conditions, including ulcerative colitis, Clostridium difficile-associated colitis, irritable bowel syndrome, and even obesity [156–160]. It is possible that dermatologic conditions, including psoriasis and atopic dermatitis, may also be observed to benefit from re-engineering the gut microbiota. Recent advances in microbiome research offer exciting new tools to possibly enhance human health. Most of the studies reviewed in this manuscript profiled the microbiome using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing, which utilizes the hypervariable regions of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene to identify bacteria present in biological samples. 16S rRNA sequencing is the most commonly used method by medical researchers to study microbial composition, due to its low cost and relatively easy workflow for sample preparation and bioinformatic analyses. However, 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing primarily provides information about microbial identity and not function. In order to investigate the microbiome's functions, many researchers have turned to a shotgun metagenomic approach in which the whole bacterial genome is sequenced. Despite a higher cost and more complicated bioinformatics requirement, shotgun metagenomics provides information about both microbial identity and gene composition. Knowing which genes are encoded by the bacteria present in a sample allows researchers to better understand their roles in human health. With reducing costs of next generation sequencing, improved sample preparation protocols, and more bioinformatic tools available for metagenomic analysis, this technique will be a powerful tool to study microbiome functionality. Performing meta-analyses to correlate the microbiome with host genomes, transcriptomes, and immunophenotypes represents another exciting avenue for investigating human and bacterial interactions.
Precision medicine is another attractive, novel therapeutic approach for many diseases with strong genetic associations. It is important to note that the host genotype also plays a role in shaping the microbiome, and that this host-microbe interaction is crucial for maintaining human health [161]. Therefore, a better understanding of the interplay between genes, phenotypes, and the microbiome will provide important insights into the utility of precision medicine.
The observation that diet can modulate host-microbe interactions heralds a promising future therapeutic approach. Already, the gut microbiome has been found to influence the response to cancer immunotherapy [162, 163]. Indeed, personalized nutrition is an emerging concept that utilizes a machine-learning algorithm to predict metabolic responses to meals [164, 165]. This tool has broad implications for individualized patient care through dietary modification. While this and other technology is in the process of being refined and validated, further research using large, long-term clinical trials to evaluate a greater variety of food components would be helpful in making specific dietary recommendations to patients."

Inflammation regulation by short chain fatty acids
Abstract (as presented by the authors of the scientific work):
"The short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) acetate (C(2)), propionate (C(3)) and butyrate (C(4)) are the main metabolic products of anaerobic bacteria fermentation in the intestine. In addition to their important role as fuel for intestinal epithelial cells, SCFAs modulate different processes in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract such as electrolyte and water absorption. These fatty acids have been recognized as potential mediators involved in the effects of gut microbiota on intestinal immune function. SCFAs act on leukocytes and endothelial cells through at least two mechanisms: activation of GPCRs (GPR41 and GPR43) and inhibiton of histone deacetylase (HDAC). SCFAs regulate several leukocyte functions including production of cytokines (TNF-α, IL-2, IL-6 and IL-10), eicosanoids and chemokines (e.g., MCP-1 and CINC-2). The ability of leukocytes to migrate to the foci of inflammation and to destroy microbial pathogens also seems to be affected by the SCFAs. In this review, the latest research that describes how SCFAs regulate the inflammatory process is presented. The effects of these fatty acids on isolated cells (leukocytes, endothelial and intestinal epithelial cells) and, particularly, on the recruitment and activation of leukocytes are discussed. Therapeutic application of these fatty acids for the treatment of inflammatory pathologies is also highlighted."
Covered topics (the letter size corresponds to the frequency of mentioning in the text):
Conclusions (as presented by the authors of the scientific work):
"SCFAs present multiple effects in different cells involved in the inflammatory and immune responses. These fatty acids not only affect the function of leukocytes (e.g., production of inflammatory mediators and ability of leukocytes to migrate) but can also induce apoptosis in lymphocytes [96,97], macrophages [98] and neutrophils [99]. The latter effect may be relevant for the outcome of the inflammatory process and the immune response to bacteria that produce these fatty acids.
In general, SCFAs, such as propionate and butyrate, inhibit stimuli-induced expression of adhesion molecules, chemokine production and consequently suppress monocyte/macrophage and neutrophil recruitment, suggesting an anti-inflammatory action. However, there is also evidence in favor of a pro-inflammatory action of SCFAs in some conditions [20,100]. This discrepancy may be in part explained by the ability of SCFAs to induce neutrophil migration. In sites of anaerobic bacteria infection or after loss of intestinal epithelial integrity, high concentrations of SCFAs may lead to neutrophil accumulation and amplification of the inflammatory process. Another possible explanation is the fact that these fatty acids may present divergent effects depending on the cell type (e.g., anti- and pro-inflammatory effects of SCFAs on macrophage and microglial cells have been demonstrated [52,97,101]). Therefore, although SCFAs modulate the function of immune cells, more studies are necessary in order to understand the precise role of SCFAs on the interaction between bacteria and host immune cells in vivo, particularly in the GI tract and in sites of anaerobic infections including the skin, oral cavity and respiratory tract."

Dietary constituents with "exercise mimetic'' action
Abstract (as presented by the authors of the scientific work):
"Endurance exercise, when performed regularly as part of a training program, leads to increases in whole-body and skeletal muscle-specific oxidative capacity. At the cellular level, this adaptive response is manifested by an increased number of oxidative fibers (Type I and IIA myosin heavy chain), an increase in capillarity and an increase in mitochondrial biogenesis. The increase in mitochondrial biogenesis (increased volume and functional capacity) is fundamentally important as it leads to greater rates of oxidative phosphorylation and an improved capacity to utilize fatty acids during sub-maximal exercise. Given the importance of mitochondrial biogenesis for skeletal muscle performance, considerable attention has been given to understanding the molecular cues stimulated by endurance exercise that culminate in this adaptive response. In turn, this research has led to the identification of pharmaceutical compounds and small nutritional bioactive ingredients that appear able to amplify exercise-responsive signaling pathways in skeletal muscle. The aim of this review is to discuss these purported exercise mimetics and bioactive ingredients in the context of mitochondrial biogenesis in skeletal muscle. We will examine proposed modes of action, discuss evidence of application in skeletal muscle in vivo and finally comment on the feasibility of such approaches to support endurance-training applications in humans."
Covered topics (the letter size corresponds to the frequency of mentioning in the text):
Conclusions (as presented by the authors of the scientific work):
"Endurance exercise is a potent stimulus to induce mitochondrial biogenesis in skeletal muscle (Holloszy, 1967; Molé et al., 1971; Oscai and Holloszy, 1971; Hoppeler et al., 1973; Spina et al., 1996). The nutritional approaches described herein could provide a framework to support endurance training via enhancing mitochondrial biogenesis. In this context, we propose that these small molecules should be viewed as exercise enhancers, not mimetics, as they have minimal effect in basal conditions. In the future, it will be interesting to explore the efficacy of using these nutrients in human studies in vivo, to identify the exercise setting in which they may have the most benefit as well as developing optimal supplementation strategies. In this regard, future studies could examine the effect of bioactives during and in recovery from exercise across a variety of intensities, and also examine supplementation during periods of tapering or detraining to shed light on the practical implications of bioactives as regulators of mitochondrial biogenesis in skeletal muscle. In order to achieve this, researchers should perform randomized, placebo-controlled, intervention trials in human subjects (Hasler, 2002), and examine the extent to which the bioactive ingredient in question is absorbed and bioavailable in skeletal muscle (Crowe et al., 2013). Once achieved, it is hoped that bioactives such as those discussed, and derivatives/associated bioactive ingredients yet to be identified may lead to the next-generation of nutritional supplements to specifically enhance mitochondrial adaptations to endurance training."

Chronic diseases and aging: potential applications of circadian clock-enhancing small molecules
Abstract (as presented by the authors of the scientific work):
"Normal physiological functions require a robust biological timer called the circadian clock. When clocks are dysregulated, misaligned, or dampened, pathological consequences ensue, leading to chronic diseases and accelerated aging. An emerging research area is the development of clock-targeting compounds that may serve as drug candidates to correct dysregulated rhythms and hence mitigate disease symptoms and age-related decline. In this review, we first present a concise view of the circadian oscillator, physiological networks, and regulatory mechanisms of circadian amplitude. Given a close association of circadian amplitude dampening and disease progression, clock-enhancing small molecules (CEMs) are of particular interest as candidate chronotherapeutics. A recent proof-of-principle study illustrated that the natural polymethoxylated flavonoid nobiletin directly targets the circadian oscillator and elicits robust metabolic improvements in mice. We describe mood disorders and aging as potential therapeutic targets of CEMs. Future studies of CEMs will shed important insight into the regulation and disease relevance of circadian clocks."
Covered topics (the letter size corresponds to the frequency of mentioning in the text):
Future directions and concluding remarks (as presented by the authors of the scientific work):
"Circadian amplitude regulation and pharmacological modifiers are exciting research topics with promising translational potential. The list of CEMs will likely continue to grow, either from phenotypic screening, as in the case of NOB, or from targeted ligand development (14). On the other hand, pharmacological agents shown to target or mimic clock-enhancing pathways such as CR, TRF, and exercise are a rich venue for discovery of additional clock-targeting agents (63, 130, 161, 170). For example, a growing number of small molecules or drugs have been shown to extend life span and health span, including those deliberately designed to mimic CR and other manipulations (170, 171). Future studies should characterize their circadian clock effects and delineate molecular mechanisms.
Besides metabolic diseases, mood disorders, and aging, other chronic diseases such as neurodegenerative diseases (172, 173) have also been shown to correlate with dampened circadian amplitude or clock dysregulation and may represent new venues for studies of clock modifiers. In addition to antidepressive effects, several studies have shown neurological efficacies of NOB using transgenic disease models (Table (Table2).2). For example, 11-day oral administration of NOB resulted in an overall memory improvement in olfactory-bulbectomized (OBX) mice based on the step-through passive-avoidance task and the Y-maze test (111). OBX mice share clinical features with both human neurodegenerative diseases and major depression (174). The depression-like phenotype is thought to derive from pathological or compensatory mechanisms within the cortical–hippocampal–amygdala circuit, which typically involve deterioration of spine density and/or synaptic strength changes (175). Future studies are required to determine the specific role of circadian clocks and RORs in disease models.
Significant gaps of knowledge remain regarding circadian amplitude regulation, especially the mechanisms employed by CEMs. At the intracellular level, questions of particular interest include gene expression regulation, such as cofactor recruitment, epigenetic mechanisms, and chromosome dynamics (1). At the intercellular and system levels, other coupling molecules in addition to VIP and the communication between peripheral and central clocks are outstanding questions (50). It is conceivable that CEMs execute distinct mechanistic schemes to restore a robust overall output under disease or aging conditions. Exemplified by the complex and divergent ROR mechanisms when bound by distinct ligands (74, 90, 91), a detailed mechanistic understanding is important to fully exploit the therapeutic potential of individual CEMs.
In conclusion, circadian clocks safeguard physiological health, and dysregulated and dampened clocks can serve as therapeutic targets to mitigate disease symptoms. Exciting functional and mechanistic studies await to develop CEMs as novel preventive and therapeutic agents."

Avocado: scientific review of possible health benefits
Abstract (as presented by the authors of the scientific work):
"Hass avocados, the most common commercial avocado cultivars in the world, contain a variety of essential nutrients and important phytochemicals. Although the official avocado serving is one-fifth of a fruit (30 g), according to NHANES analysis the average consumption is one-half an avocado (68 g), which provides a nutrient and phytochemical dense food consisting of the following: dietary fiber (4.6 g), total sugar (0.2 g), potassium (345 mg), sodium (5.5 mg), magnesium (19.5 mg), vitamin A (43 μg), vitamin C (6.0 mg), vitamin E (1.3 mg), vitamin K1 (14 μg), folate (60 mg), vitamin B-6 (0.2 mg), niacin (1.3 mg), pantothenic acid (1.0 mg), riboflavin (0.1 mg), choline (10 mg), lutein/zeaxanthin (185 μg), phytosterols (57 mg), and high-monounsaturated fatty acids (6.7 g) and 114 kcals or 1.7 kcal/g. The avocado oil consists of 71% monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA), 13% polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), and 16% saturated fatty acids (SFA), which helps to promote healthy blood lipid profiles and enhance the bioavailability of fat soluble vitamins and phytochemicals from the avocado or other fruits and vegetables, naturally low in fat, which are consumed with avocados. There are eight preliminary clinical studies showing that avocado consumption helps support cardiovascular health. Exploratory studies suggest that avocados may support weight management and healthy aging."
Covered topics (the letter size corresponds to the frequency of mentioning in the text):
Conclusions (as presented by the authors of the scientific work):
"In the context of a healthy diet, consumption of avocados can fit into a full range of healthy eating plans (e.g., DASH diet plan). According to NHANES data, the average avocado consumption is one-half fruit, which provides for a nutrient and phytochemical dense food consisting of significant levels of the following: dietary fiber, potassium, magnesium, vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin K1, folate, vitamin B-6, niacin, pantothenic acid, riboflavin, choline, lutein/zeaxanthin, phytosterols, and MUFA rich oil at 1.7 kcal/g. This caloric density is medium-low because an avocado is about 80% by weight is water (72%) and dietary fiber (6.8%). Unlike the typical fruit, avocados contain a very low sugar content with only about 0.2 g sugar per one-half fruit. There are eight preliminary avocado cardiovascular health clinical studies that have consistently demonstrated positive heart healthy effects on blood lipids profiles. This is primarily because of avocado's low SFA and high-unsaturated fatty acids (MUFA and PUFA) content, but its natural phytosterols and dietary fiber may play potential secondary cholesterol lowering roles. Avocados also have a diverse range of other nutrients and phytochemicals that may have beyond cholesterol vascular health benefits. In particular, avocado's potassium and lutein may help promote normal blood pressure and help to control oxidative/inflammatory stress, respectfully. The consumption of avocados with salads or salsa increases the bioavailability of carotenoids multi-fold, which may add to the potential health benefits. More comprehensive avocado clinical research is underway to significantly expand the scientific understanding of avocados in cardiovascular health, weight management, blood glucose control and healthy living."

Recent advances in Parkinson's disease therapy
Abstract (as presented by the author of the scientific work):
"This article summarizes (1) the recent achievements to further improve symptomatic therapy of motor Parkinson's disease (PD) symptoms, (2) the still-few attempts to systematically search for symptomatic therapy of non-motor symptoms in PD, and (3) the advances in the development and clinical testing of compounds which promise to offer disease modification in already-manifest PD. However, prevention (that is, slowing or stopping PD in a prodromal stage) is still a dream and one reason for this is that we have no consensus on primary endpoints for clinical trials which reflect the progression in prodromal stages of PD, such as in rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) -a methodological challenge to be met in the future."
Covered topics (the letter size corresponds to the frequency of mentioning in the text):
Conclusions (as presented by the author of the scientific work):
"Neurologists have to accept that the majority of patients with PD, even at the very early stage of neurological diagnosis, actually present a late-stage phenotype of an alpha-synucleinopathy. Thus, PD has started at least 20 years before it manifests in the clinic with its motor symptoms. Neurologists will likely have to shift their clinical and diagnostic focus away from the dopaminergic system to symptoms related to different parts of the nervous system, such as the enteric system62, the brainstem with its autonomic control areas, the locus coeruleus57, or even the skin. If the dream of a disease-modifying therapy is to come true, neuroscience, drug development, and physician scientists face at least two challenges. First, drug development will target the aggregation and propagation of alpha-synuclein and of related mechanisms as well as mitochondrial dysfunction; second, a major effort has to be made to enhance the diagnostic methodology in order to identify a primary endpoint for clinical neuroprotective trials, not only in early motor PD but also in the prodromal stages of PD82–84. It has never been so exciting as today to work in the field of PD, and we should share this belief with the patients we diagnose, treat, and care for."

No Power
10 Other's Have to Say:
- Amy said...
With all the snow we have gotten lately, we were afraid that we may even loose power for a bit. I know my SIL did - luckily she and my nephew got to stay with my inlaws. We did get a generator JUST incase this happens...

We're under a state of emergency until Thursday here in the Atlanta area. Expecting "catastrophic" ice storm. You never know with GA though! I'd love some real snow, but that's a rarity. I'm hoping we don't lose power, I have a little one at home as well. We have above ground power lines and pine trees all over the place that snap so easily from ice. Hoping everyone stays warm!! And your family is beautiful. :) #SITSblogging

I hate when we lose power. I have two boys that have to do breathing treatments so if we ever lose power, I automatically have to find somewhere else to go. This weather has been crazy. I need spring to get here quickly. #sitsblogging

This traditional Japanese dish is infamous for its interesting odor and sticky texture, but Chef Brian Malarkey transformed it into a sauce for his smoked pork tail clam.
More About: Grill Masters: Part Three
Yak Steak
Yak meat, which is more lean and delicate than regular steak, can be grilled just like any other meat. Competitor Galen Zamarra grilled it and served it rare over a kale salad.
More About: Grill Masters: Part One
Tavuk Gogsu
This signature Turkish dish is made from milk pudding and chicken. While competitors said it tastes just like it sounds, Chef Timothy Peterson transformed it by adding it into a molten sour cream cake and covering it in orange liqueur sauce.
More About: Bizarre Baskets!
This clam is much larger than the clams you would normally get at a restaurant, making it harder to work with in the kitchen. Competitor James Major, however, sliced it raw, mixed it with artichokes and arugula, then served it salad style on top of flatbread.
More About: Chopped: Impossible, Grand Finale
Solomillo Iberico
This pork tenderloin, traditionally from Spanish Iberico pigs, can be used just like any other pork product. Contestant Mary Sue Milliken mixed it with peanuts and an arugula slaw, then served it on top of a tostada.
More About: All-Stars Tournament: Part 2
Rocky Mountain Oysters
These are the delicate jewels on the underside of a bull, but they can be fixed up with some breading and deep-frying. Chef Madison Cowan served them Southern-fried with a crunchy salad on the side.
More About: $50,000 Tournament: Part 1
Reindeer Pâté
When actress Teri Hatcher competed on the show, she transformed this odd ingredient by frying it as a sort of fritter or cake; she served it atop a fresh salad with apples and an apple cider-and-ginger reduction.
More About: Celebrity Holiday Bash
Rattlesnake Meat
While you might not come across this meat often, it's easy to work into a meal. Competitor Mackenzie Hilton pan-seared it with some balsamic and served it with a green bean and Asian pear salad.
More About: Rattle and Roll
Rack of Antelope
If you ever find yourself cooking a rack of antelope, you can treat it just like you would lamb. Competitor James Gillespie pan-seared it and served it with a jicama-and-potato hash.
More About: Champions' Tournament: Part 1
The name might sound intimidating, but this is really very similar to any other spiced sausage. Competitor Robert Corbin decided to go simple and mix this Italian sausage into a cheese mixture for stuffed mushrooms and jalapenos.
More About: Firefighter Chefs
Merguez Sausage
This beef-based sausage found in North African cuisine can be used just like any other sausage. Competitor Cathy McNight made it into a delicious filling for empanadas.
More About: Firefighter Chefs
This traditional Nordic dish of dried and salted whitefish and lye has a very strong odor and taste, but it can be used to flavor a sauce, not unlike an anchovy.
More About: Plenty of Fish
This dish from Balkans, Greece and Turkey is a mixture of seasoned offal that can be worked into any meal that calls for shaved meat, just like gyro meat. For example, competitor Stan Hays used it to make a street taco.

Borobudur is a veritable master gallery of the local history's stories and events. The construct's architecture, with every inch filled with meaningful symbols of both human life and the universe in which it prospers. The innumerable reliefs carved into its wall tell an uncountable amount of stories and lessons in relation to the life of the Buddha, and the teachings that he advocated. Borobudur is, indeed, a monument filled to the brim with meaning.A side from its function as a symbol of the universe, with a philosophical vertical division encompassing Kamandhatu, Rupadhatu, and Arupadhatu, Borobudur Temple also has a very honorable purpose—this is told through the reliefs carved on to its 1.460 stone panels, arranged in 11 rows encircling the temple's core area.
Borobudur is an artistic and architectural masterpiece widely renowned and admired for its complexity and beauty. Not only does it serve as a religious and cultural center, Borobudur is also a very futuristic product of architecture, which was built with a high level of skill and technology, involving the usage of the various branches of measured and exact science, from mathematics, physics, chemistry, and geometry.

LRA, backbone of Lesotho's economy
MASERU- People need to know more about the Lesotho Revenue Authority (LRA) in order to appreciate and understand where the money they are taxed for goes to rather than speculating or pinpointing LRA for fleecing the ratepayers' hard-earned cash.
In an interview with the Informative Business recently, LRA Public Relations manager Pheello Mphana mentioned that it was very important for members of the public to understand what LRA does. It is for this reason, he said, that the LRA has embarked on a taxpayer education strategy in order to teach people about tax-related issues.
Mphana stated that LRA has a communication strategy whose main purpose is to make people aware of what LRA is all about and what it does. He said the organization is going around to explain the mandate of LRA and also to make people aware of their tax obligations as well as their rights in order to sensitize the clients about the procedures and the processes that are in place at the national taxation authority.
He further mentioned that the key responsibilities or key services of LRA are revenue collection, border management and advisory services. He also said that it is only through the taxes that LRA collects funds that the Government of Lesotho is able to provide public services, and these include, among others, infrastructure development and maintenance for such as national bridges and roads.
He went on to mention that when it comes to health care the taxes are used to build clinics, hospitals and for medication purposes, and when it comes to education, the taxes are used to build schools and to provide primary education.
He also said that when it comes to essential services, taxes are used to provide water, electricity as well as safety and security.
Mphana went further to explain that it is through taxes that LRA is collecting funds that assist the government to provide old age pensions and other grants.
"This clearly shows that LRA plays a critical role in as far as economic growth and development are concerned," he said.
He stated that Lesotho is able to develop and look after its citizens if people pay their taxes. He again mentioned that LRA is the government agency through the Ministry of Finance. He also said that after the LRA was established in 2001, sales tax was abolished and replaced by value added tax (VAT).
Mphana went on to mention that LRA is an operationally autonomous body that was established by the LRA Act no 14 of 2001 to be the main body responsible for the assessment and collection, on behalf of the government, of specified revenue, for the administration and enforcement of laws relating to such revenue and for related matters.
He stated that LRA was established as a result of the government decision and as a matter of policy to merge three government departments, namely income tax, sales tax as well as customs and excise, and this the government did in its endeavor to provide efficiency in revenue collection.

Gregg Allman has cancelled all of his scheduled 2017 concerts. No further explanation has been offered for this decision.
"It has been determined that Gregg will not be touring in 2017," explains a statement on his official website. "For those of you who purchased tickets for shows in June, contact the ticket outlet from where you purchased the tickets for a refund."
Last November, the former Allman Brothers Band leader cancelled all of his solo shows for the remainder of 2016, citing unspecified health concerns. "This is the hardest thing I've had to do in a long, long, time," he explained at the time. "I've been on the road for 45 years because I live to play music with my friends for my fans. As much as I hate it, it's time for me to take some real time off to heal."
In August of 2016, Allman cancelled several concerts due to a bout with pneumonia. He returned to the stage for a pair of shows in September and October. In January of 2017, Allman's former bandmate Butch Trucks died. "I'm heartbroken," Allman said in an official statement. "I've lost another brother, and it hurts beyond words. Butch and I knew each other since we were teenagers, and we were bandmates for over 45 years. He was a great man and a great drummer, and I'm going to miss him forever."
That same month, Allman reported that he was putting the touches on a new Don Was-produced studio album, Southern Blood.

CHICAGO – When faced with adversity, the best way around it is to somehow break into song. That is the feeling behind the Brown Paper Box Co.'s "Positively Present: An Uplifting Cabaret," running April 7th and 8th at Mary's Attic in Chicago's Andersonville neighborhood. The event features company member Kristi Szczepanek as host, and presents song stylings by other company members, including Anna Schutz, plus some special guests.

Film News: Asian Pop-Up Cinema Presents U.S. Premiere of 'Norjmaa' on Apr. 12, 2017
CHICAGO – The fourth season of Chicago's Asian Pop-Up Cinema series continues with the U.S. premiere of "Norjmaa" on Wednesday, April 12th, 2017, at the AMC River East Theatre in downtown Chicago. "Norjmaa" won the "Golden Rooster" – the Chinese Oscars – for Best "lower budget" Film. Tsogtbayer Namsrai of Mongol Films will appear on behalf of the film. For complete details and to purchase tickets, click here.
'Norjmaa,' Directed by Bayaneruul, Presented by Chicago's Asian Pop-Up Cinema Series
Photo credit: AsianPopUpCinema.org
"Norjmaa" is directed by Bayaneruull – who was nominated for a Golden Rooster – and is set during World War II. A female Mongolian sheep herder named Norjmaa finds two injured soldiers, one Japanese and one Russian. She takes them in, and begins the healing process with traditional Mongolian medicine. As they get stronger, they move toward their original mission – to kill each other as enemy combatants. With three different languages, and her own war wounds of the past, Norjmaa is challenged on several fronts.
The Asian Pop-Up Cinema series – founded by Chicago film program veteran Sophia Wong Boccio – is a revolving showcase of diverse Asian films, with China, Hong Kong, Inner Mongolia, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Tibet and Vietnam all represented for the 2017 Spring Season, in films with English subtitles. Screenings occur at the AMC River East 21 in downtown Chicago, the Wilmette Theatre in Wilmette, Illinois, and various locations (including free screenings). "Norjmaa" will also have a one week run at the Wilmette Theatre starting on April 14th. For a full schedule and location guide to the 2017 Spring Season, click here.

Have you ever thought about the personality of your health and wellness brand? Who or what would it look like, if you could personify it? If it were a Halloween costume, who or what would it be?Fleshing this idea out presents an interesting marketing challenge that can refresh your brand and set your business apart, all in one shot. And coordinating it with Halloween is the perfect time to do it.
Who knows, if you can really nail it–the perfect character/costume/personality–maybe you'll end up with a mascot that will serve your branding needs for years to come, year 'round.
There's lots of inspiration out there. Just flip through a few channels, skim through some magazines (they don't have to pertain to wellness or fitness necessarily) or surf the Internet. Brainstorm with your staff. Think about your services and your individual style of delivering those services.
Is your environment loud, bright and energetic? Subdued, calming, more like a retreat? Do you serve mostly families? Or are most of your customers older women? Maybe you cater to sedentary folks or super fit types? Are your clients squeezing all the gusto from life that they possibly can? Or tentatively yet hopefully taking the first steps back towards health?
Then, think about cultural icons — Spiderman, Tony the Tiger, Flo from the Geico commercials (or Flo from that old "Alice" TV series!), the hamsters from the Kia ads, Jack and Rose from the Titanic, and so on. Which ones resonate?

Get the legal help you need at a fixed price. No hidden fees or long-term commitment.
If you are getting divorced and have children, part of the divorce agreement will involve determining where and with whom the children will live. A child custody lawyer can help you negotiate custody, either by agreement or in court. The custodial parent (the one the child lives with) earns the legal right to make decisions regarding the child's lifestyle, welfare, and education. Some parents opt for joint custody, which means children divide their time between both parents' homes, and parents share the right to make decisions on behalf of the children. If you as parents are unable to agree on child custody, a judge will decide for you.

Good hotel. Good access to Denali National park.Posted Sep 26, 2016
Pros: Close to Denali National Park
Cons: It may be nice to improve their parking infront of the cabins.
Location: Hiking
We stayed end of September so that most of the service including Denali National Park tours are all closed but we had a good time to drive with my own car to see the wild animals and flowers. We also enjyoed hiking around the hotels and National park area. Overall this hotel's facility and foods were very good.

Excellent service and great facilities.Posted Sep 25, 2016
Pros: The price was reasonable, the accommodations were very nice and a close drive to Denali Park.
Location: Located in McKinley Village so close to all the gift shops and restaurants. Just 5 minutes from the entrance to Denali Park.
We drove up from the Matanuska Valley and arrived late for our one night stay and were greeted pleasantly by the staff and escorted down to our parking area then taken to our building. The rooms were clean and we had a view of the river. There were two restaurants and a bar, as well as other accommodations on the property. We had an excellent breakfast the next morning in their restaurant with professional staff and pleasant views. It was only 5 minutes from Denali Park so very convenient for our visit there.

Older, clean, nice viewPosted Sep 25, 2016
We had an amazing view of the river but the room had a strong bad smell & the bed was hard. An inexpensive mattress topper would have made a huge improvement & we couldn't quite figure out the strange odor.

Research Fellow

Knowledge Spa F072
I have a background in epidemiology, environmental health impact assessment, and environmental geochemistry/geology which provides me with an insight into many aspects of the causal chains that can be mapped out between environmental stressors and potential health impacts on human populations. As both an epidemiologist and health impact assessor I have also worked on occupational exposures.
Globally, I am interested in the application of evidence-based methods in decision-making as a means of improving human health, and have been fortunate to work on a number of large interdisciplinary projects developing methods, data and collaborative networks to this end.
At ECEHH I work exclusively on the Horizon 2020-funded BlueHealth project, within which my time is divided between being the overall project manager and carrying out research on the potential effect of the natural environment on health. In particular, my role as a researcher is focused on the design, implementation and interpretation of a large survey on wellbeing and "blue space" (natural and built environment featuring water bodies), and analysis and interpretation of related secondary data.
2011 PhD in Epidemiology
2000 MSc in Environmental Technology
1998 BSc in Geology with Environmental Applications
Research interests
Over the past fifteen years I have worked in a number of research areas relating to the environment, occupation, and health. This work has included modelling of environmental processes, exposure assessment, epidemiological analysis, systematic review and meta-analysis, and health impact assessment based on epidemiological and secondary data.
I have an interest in the treatment of multiple types of uncertainty in exposure assessment, epidemiological modelling and quantitative health impact assessment.
I strongly believe that the results of publicly-funded research should be made available to the public and find engagement with the public a particularly rewarding part of my work.
