Missoula detective works prescription pill cases full-time
MISSOULA, Mont. - Doctors and police in Missoula are calling it Montana's silent epidemic -- the problem with prescription drug abuse and the crimes that come with it.
There are so many criminal cases to tackle in Missoula, the police department has a detective dedicated full-time to the caseload.
Missoula County's evidence warehouse is full of problem pills. Missoula County Sheriff's Detective Jason Johnson pulled out a small sample -- piles of prescription pills that almost looked like candy, seemingly harmless.
They're prescribed by doctors to help but unfortunately too often they harm. Johnson said most of the drugs he put out on display were confiscated in coroner's cases.
Those pills will be disposed of, turned over to the DEA. But they're just a small portion of what's sitting in people's medicine cabinets, drawers and shelves at home with a possibility of falling into the wrong hands.
It's a fact Missoula Police Detective Dean Chrestenson knows well.
"It was busy enough four years ago that we saw this epidemic and it wasn't anything new. It's just we started seeing it more and starting to realize the problem," said Chrestenson. "That problem really hasn't gone away."
Chrestenson specializes as a full-time prescription drug diversion detective. It's a first for the police department in an attempt to slow down an increasing problem with unlikely suspects.
"Just local everyday people. All ages, all genders, all financial backgrounds," said Chrestenson. "There's really nothing to say this type of person is the only person that's going to do drug diversion and abuse painkillers and narcotics."
For the four years Chrestenson has spent dedicated to the pill problem he estimates he has opened at least 400 cases. He knows he can't stop them all, it's not an easy crime to fight, but it only takes one pill to charge somebody with a felony.
"Some people think you've got to have a whole bunch, you've got to have 30 or 40, 100…it really just takes one."
Dr. Marc Mentel at Community Medical Center jokes that he wishes he could put Chrestenson out of work.
"He'd probably be mad at me for saying I want to get him out of his job," said Mentel. "He does a great job."
Or at least reassign him.
"Get him out of diversion of prescription drugs," said Mentel.
Through his work as a physician, Mentel has seen the dangers of prescription drug abuse. While putting Chrestenson out of work isn't a likely scenario, the two have started to talk about ways doctors and law enforcement can team up.
"Obviously law enforcement, medical people, therapists, counselors, the in-house facilities…the outpatient treatment, all of it is key to combating the problem," Chrestenson said.
And they agree it starts with awareness.
"The best way to fight that silent epidemic is to make sure the public is aware of it," said Mentel.
"I hope that just everybody continues to make this a priority," Chrestenson said. "Let's try to shut down this silent epidemic."

P. C. Appiah Ofori Endorses Mills, and says NPP Would Have Loved To Have Him As Their Presidential Candidate
Appiah Menka, others Running Scared…
That the election of Prof. John Evans Atta-Mills as the flagbearer of the NDC has sent shock waves through the ruling New Patriotic Party is not mere conjecture. One only has to listen to the honest outspoken members of that party to appreciate the level of trepidation that has engulfed the party. While a founding member and leading light in the NPP, Mr. Appiah Menka of Apino soap fame, has all but made it emphatically clear that the election of Prof John Evans Atta Mills as the flagbearer for the NDC represents a virtual 'mission impossible' for the NPP, Hon. P. C. Appiah Ofori, has made it clear that the New Patriotic Party would have wished that Prof. Mills was its flagbearer.
Speaking on Happy 98.9FM in Accra on Monday 8th January 2007, Hon. P. C. Appiah Ofori did not leave any doubt in the minds of listeners that Prof. John Evans Atta-Mills represents the very best leader that this country could ever hope for.
Hon. P. C. Appiah Ofori made it clear that the NPP would have wished that Prof. Mills was standing for President on the ticket of the NPP.
As if that was not enough, Hon. P. C. Appiah Ofori came back on Radio Gold on Wednesday to reiterate his endorsement of Prof. Mills' candidature.
He pointed out that very detailed investigations carried out by the NPP to find some evidence that could suggest that Prof. Mills had been involved in some act of corruption during his tenure in public office have yielded no fruits as there was not a whiff of corruption tainting anything that Prof. Mills did while in public office.
"This is the kind of man that this country needs to lead the fight against corruption. If someone like Prof. Mills says that he is fighting against corruption, we can be sure that he would do it because he is not corrupt," Hon. P. C. Appiah Ofori stressed.
When asked how he rates the commitment to the fight against corruption by those aspiring to lead the NPP, Hon. P. C. Appiah Ofori dismissed them.
He indicated that all those who were part of this government as Ministers or Cabinet Ministers cannot claim to be tainted by corruption since they are collectively responsible for the levels of corruption in the country today. Hon. P. C. Appiah Ofori is one of the very few NPP bigwigs who do not allow their party affiliation to becloud their honest assessment of issues. Not too long ago, another leading member of the NPP, Mr. Appiah Menka, speaking from his Kumasi base, whistled loudly in the ears of the NPP asking the party to have an early congress to elect a flagbearer since it would be a very tall order for the NPP should the NDC maintain Prof Mills.
The NDC has indeed maintained Prof Mills by an overwhelming majority and it seems that Appiah Menka's fears have left his doorsteps and are now sharing his bed with him hence his latest confession that the professor is in pole position to win the 2008 elections.
Additionally, a near-tears NPP MP who spoke to The Ghanaian Lens over the weekend at his party's hurriedly put together delegates congress at Koforidua, has heaped tons of hot coal on the head of John Agyekum Kufuor for being the cause of the woes of the NPP.
The MP, who wanted his name to be mentioned but was prevailed upon by some of his constituents to hold back a bit, did not mince words at all about how Kufuor has by his words and deeds, especially his deeds, single handedly destroyed what millions of people have worked for.
According to the MP, he has decided not to contest his seat for the fourth time not because he would not win, but because there is no more pride in being a member of Parliament on the ticket of the NPP.
"The NPP, which used to be a source of pride to lots of us has become an embarrassing albatross hanging around the necks of some of us because of the way Kufuor has misconducted himself" the MP said.
"Most of our foot soldiers are just waiting patiently for 2008 to teach the party a lesson because Kufuor has disappointed them. It happened to the NDC in 2000 and it will happen to us in 2008. The president has no plan for governing this country and if we had known this is the way he would disgrace us we would have voted for Akuffo Addo in 1998 to lead the party," the MP added.
The MP cited, the lack of jobs, the numerous labour unrests, the unending energy crisis, the failed so-called presidential initiatives, the drug menace, the filth that has engulfed the capital city, the very dizzy crime rate, the turning of the castle into a kickback generating machinery, the enriching of president's children and close friends at the expense of the generality of citizens, and the low level to which morality has sunk, as ample evidence of the gross failure of the Kufuor administration.
"Kufuor has failed us and I am not going to pretend that he has not just because I belong to the NPP," was the parting shot of the MP.
There is no denying the fact that John Agyekum Kufuor has not only failed the NPP, but has failed the country as a whole.
And on the eve of the country's 50th birthday, it is manifestly clear that Kwame Nkrumah and the Founding Fathers of the nation would be turning in their graves at the way years after they hoisted the Ghana flag and gave us a sense of pride and belonging, it has taken one very incompetent member of the Danqua/Busia tradition and his lackeys, to reduce the country to nothingness.

The team of molecular biologists scheduled news conferences today in Toronto and Washington to report on the discovery, details of which are to be published in the scientific journal Science next month. ''This is one of the most significant discoveries in the history of human genetics," Dr. Ronald Worton, chief geneticist at Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children's said and skin to produce too much mucous and retain an excess of sodium ions. Treatment includes a variety of medications and more recently, double lung transplants, although eventually a new lung will become irreparably damaged also. Lap-Chee Tsui at Sick Children's heads the team with the collaboration of Francis Collins of the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor. He stresses that finding the defective gene isn't a cure. ''First we need to have the actual gene," Tsui said. ''Then we have to find out what the gene does, or does not do, that causes the disease." Genes are units of DNA, the molecule of heredity. Before the chemical structure of a gene is identified, it must be located on one of the 46 chromosomes found in every human cell.Credit Card For Kids Is 'Wrong Message' SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - A bank for children thinks a credit card is just what its kiddie customers want, bu*, one opponent says teacliing a new generation how to borrow is the last thing this debt-plagued country needs. ''We think it teaches absolutely the wrong message," said Loren Dunton, president of the National Center for Financial Education, a non-profit group that seeks to promote financial responsibility. ''Our message is to save now so you can buy later, and they're promoting the philosophy of buy now and pay later." The San Diego-based center plans to use its branches in 50 states to ask parents and teachers to oppose a plan by the Young Americans Bank to provide credit cards to children ages 12 and older. "It offers the temptatation to spend that even much older people too often can't resist," Dunton said in an interview in San Francisco Wednesday. But the Denver-based bank, whose customers are all young people, said it is trying to teach the proper use of credit as part of personal finance.WeatherPartly Cloudy Tonight Partly cloudy skies are forecast tonight with a 20 percent chance of thunderstorms.

Meanwhile U.S. Attorney General Dick Thornburgh announced Wednesday a $2 million program designed to help protect Colombian judges and others threatened by hitmen hired by the drug cartels. Colombian police have blamed traffickers for the assassinations last week of a judge, a national police colonel and Sen. Luis Carlos Galan, an outspoken foe of cocaine lords who was the nation's leading presidential hopeful. Police since have begun a nationwide crackdown on the traffickers, arresting suspects and seizing their property. They said they arrested Bernardo Lon-dono Quintero in a raid Wednesday on a daughter's apartment in an upper-class neighborhood in the Caribbean city of Barranquilla. Quintero, 60, nicknamed "The Diplomat" for his smooth manner, has long been considered a pioneer of Colombia's narcotics business, which began expanding in the late 1960s. Law enforcement officials say he managed to retain some of his power when new, violent organizations began muscling into the business in the mid-1970s. Quintero offered no resistence during his arrest, but a 38-caliber Smith and Wesson revolver was seized in the raid, police said. He told local reporters in Barranquilla that he used to have "legal problems" but had resolved them with the Justice Ministry more than a year ago. He denied any role in drug trafficking. An extradition request from the United States, dating to the mid-1980s, is believed to have been filed with Colombian authorities. AUS. Embassy spokesman said he could not comment. The drug lords who run today's cocaine industry remained at large Wednesday. (Please See FOUNDER, Page 10A) Discovered 1846.

AprKarl Tat* All-Night Vigil Planned To Tap Neptune Secrets By The Associated Press PASADENA, Calif. — Voyager 2 began its final approach to Neptune today, showing the planet's strange moon Triton to be a bright pink, red and blue marble ringed by what could be a snow-covered glacier of frozen natural gas, scientists say. At 9 a.m. PDT today Voyager was expected to be 472,056 miles from Neptune, caught in the grip of Neptune's powerful gravity and falling toward the fourth largest planet at a speed of 38,599 mph. At 8:56 p.m. PDT Voyager will pass 3,042 miles from Neptune's cloud tops, closer than it has come to any other celestial object on its 4.4 billion-mile journey from Earth. Researchers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory planned an all-night vigil as the most detailed images begin coming back from the spacecraft early Friday morning. It takes 4 hours and six minutes for radio signals from the spacecraft to reach Earth. Two days of tracking the spacecraft showed that a difficult course correction Monday had put Voyager "smack dab in the middle" of the path navigators wanted it to follow, said Norman Haynes, Voyager project manager. The spacecraft, launched in 1977, will reach a speed of 61,148 mph as it sweeps around Neptune headed for a pass 23,888 miles from Triton at 2:14 a.m. PDT Friday. Triton's equator is encircled with what appears to be a slightly blue band of fresh snow or frost, probably made of frozen natural gas, or methane, said Robert Brown of the Voyager imaging team. "If you were standing there you'd see crystals of frost growing much as you see frost growing on a window in the winter time," Brown said in an interview. (Please See ALL-NIGHT, Page 10A) SRS-Produced Plutonium Fuels Voyager On Historic Space Trip By BUDDY WALLER Staff Writer As Voyager 2 transmits close-up pictures of Neptune this week, it does so with the aid of the Savannah River Site. Plutonium-238 produced at SRS provides power for Voyager 2, which was launched on its multibillion-mile trip through the solar system in 1977. The spacecraft's power comes from nuclear batteries called thermoelectric generators. Each generator consists of a heat source and a converter. The heat source contains fuel in the form of plutonium dioxide. Plutonium-238 has a long half-life (almost 98 years) and low shielding requirements. During its decay, plutonium-238 emits mostly helium particles, or alpha radiation, which usually requires no shielding. The converter transforms heat produced by the fuel into electric energy. Missions such as Voyager's cannot use solar power because at such extreme distances from the sun, the solar energy is too weak. Neptune is about 2.8 billion miles from the sun. The spacecraft's three generators are each 23 inches long and 15.7 inches wide. They each weigh 83 pounds and contain 6 kilograms of plutonium-238. Even traveling at the speed of light, it will take Voyager's photos of Neptune four hours and six minutes to reach Earth. After the rendezvous with Neptune, Voyager 2 will fly to the edge of the solar system and then continue into interstellar space for eternity. Rose Barred From Baseball For LifeTerms Allow Appeal For Reinstatement By The Associated Press NEW YORK — Pete Rose was barred for life from baseball today for gambling on games but the Cincinnati Reds manager may apply for reinstatement after one year. "In the absence of a hearing and in absence of evidence to the contrary ... yes, I have concluded that he bet on baseball," Commisioner A. Bartlett Giamatti >aid today at a nows confer * nee announcing the suspension. Asked directly , if he concluded that Rose bet on the Reds, Giamatti said, "Yes." The agreement announced in a statement from the commissioner's office said that Rose "neither denies nor admits that he bet on any major league baseball game" but the game's all-time hit leader "acknowledges that the commissioner has a factual basis to impose the penalty provided." "The banishment for life of Pete Rose from baseball is the sad end of a sorry episode," Giamatti said in the statement. "One of the game's greatest players has engaged in a variety of acts which have stained the game and he must now live with the consequences of those acts." "There had no been such grave allegations since the time of Landis," the statement said in a reference to Kenesaw Mountain I,andis, the commissioner who Rose Accepts...........................Page 11A suspended for life the players involved in the Black Sox scandal after the 1919 World Series. The suspenison came in a five-page agreement signed Wednesday by Rose and Giamatti. There was no mention in the agreement that Rose would undergo counselling for gambling and there was no mention of whether the suspension would keep Rose from getting into the baseball Hall of Fame. Rose agreed to a stipulation dismissing his lawsuit against Giamatti in federal court in Ohio. Section 21 (d) of the Major League Rules specifies the penalties for gambling on baseball. It reads, in part: "Any player, umpire, or club or league official O BANISHED: Baseball superstar Pete Rose admits there's basis for banishment or employee who shall bet any sum whatsoever upon any baseball game in connection which the better has a duty to perform, shall be declared permanently ineligible." Rose was accused of violating that rule in a 225-page report submitted to Giamatti on May 9 by John M. Dowd, the commissioner's special investigator. Rose was summoned to New York by then-Commissioner Peter Ueberroth on Feb. 20. During the meeting, which Giamatti attended in his role as president of the National League, Rose denied having bet on baseball. But three days later, baseball hired Dowd and began the investigation, which cost about $1 million to complete. The Reds manager steadfastly denied the allegations. But each day brought new charges. The one that potentially is most serious involved an alleged scheme to defraud the U.S. government. Former associate Paul G. Janszen said Rose had Thomas P. Gioiosa, an associate of the manager, claim the winnings from a $47,646 parimutuel ticket at a horse-racing track in 1987, and that Gioiosa gave the money back to Rose. Public Wants Revolution In Nation's School System By The Associated Press WASHINGTON — Americans want "tradition-shattering changes" in schools — including flexible hours, more parental control and a national curriculum — and most are willing to pay higher taxes for them, a poll shows today. Americans rate the quality of public schools poorly, with only 8 percent giving an "A," 35 percent a "B" and 33 percent a "C," according to the 21st annual Gallup Poll released by Phi Delta Kappa International, a professional education fraternity. ''The public is ready for tradition-shattering changes in the policies that govern U.S. public schools," said the poll, based on in-home interviews conducted in early May and early June. Key findings of the survey were: ^ 60 percent favored allowing pupils and their parents to choose which public schools in their communities the youngsters will attend — popularly known as "parental choice." Thirty-one percent were opposed and 9 percent were undecided. ^ 75 percent favored reducing class size in the early grades to as few as 15 pupils, while 18 percent were opposed. But by a 68 percent to 25 percent margin, those questioned said they would pay higher taxes for the extra expense. (Please See PUBLIC, Page 10A) L ;

The all-party Commons transport select committee has called for queuing passengers to be moved through to airside more quickly - two weeks after the Evening Standard revealed fears that people waiting at airports are a prime target for extremists - and raised alarms about the number of passengers breaching carry-on luggage restrictions.
Committee chairman Labour MP Gwyneth Dunwoody told BBC Radio 4's Today: "Moving passengers more swiftly through to airside is going to reduce the threat [of a terrorist strike].
Scroll down for more...
"But we must work out why other countries have a completely different set of rules to us and why we have so many people at some points queuing in one place.î
The MPs said Professor Alan Hatcher of the International School for Security and Explosives Education, and Michael Todd, the Greater Manchester chief constable, had highlighted last autumn that lengthy queues in check-in areas presented a significant security threat.
They told the committee: "We have queues of 200 to 300 people in terminals now. Your bag is not searched when you go in or out. You can take 23kg of baggage with you and 23kg of ammonium nitrate mix would... make a good impact."
Meanwhile, the Conservatives today published their plans for a homeland security force made up of two battalions and headed by a permanent leader. Former intelligence chief Dame Pauline Neville-Jones, who led a national and international policy group for the Conservatives, said: "We feel there needs to be a small force which is readily available, properly trained and has a command centre dedicated to looking after our territory at home."
Under the plans, the new homeland security chief would oversee the nation's response to a crisis by deploying the military to work with other emergency services.
The Tory blueprint comes a day after Prime Minister Gordon Brown published proposals for a new uniformed border force as well as extending the time police can hold terror suspects without trial to up to 56 days.
The transport committee also argued that airport operator BAA - which runs seven UK airports including Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted - "should no longer remain a monopoly".Reuse content

The chief executive of Mothercare has played down the boost the imminent arrival of a royal baby will have on its UK business, despite its plans to launch a range of clothing to mark the occasion.
Simon Calver said that the Duchess of Cambridge's baby may lead to a "feelgood factor" and an "uptick" in the birth rate in nine months' time, but added: "We don't necessarily see a huge uptick in activity for our business."
Ahead of its annual meeting today, he blamed weak consumer spending and heavy discounting on the High Street for a 0.9% fall in UK underlying sales over the 15 weeks to July 13.
Calver, the former boss of DVD rental firm LoveFilm, said: "We expect it to continue to be tough. There are still a large number of people unemployed and the High Street is still struggling."
Calver, who took the helm in April 2012, has embarked on a three-year programme to revitalise its ailing British business by ditching loss-making stores, cutting costs, sharpening up its pricing and growing online sales.
Lifted by new stores, Mothercare grew its international revenues by 11.3%. The chain, which has franchise stores in 60 countries, is waiting for the "safe arrival" of the Duchess's baby before launching a range of clothes, prams and undisclosed "fun" ideas.
Shares in the group today fell by 29p to 441p.

Bi-Directional Predictive Frame (B-Frame)
Definition - What does Bi-Directional Predictive Frame (B-Frame) mean?
A bi-directional predictive frame (B-Frame) is part of an MPEG video compression standard. In this method, groups of sequential pictures are aggregated to form a group of pictures (GOP), which are displayed in sequence to provide video. A single bi-directional predictive frame relates to other frames directly preceding or following it.
By recording just the information that differs from a preceding picture or a following picture, the data storage requirements for each individual picture become much lower than in a technique that would store each successive image completely.
A bi-directional predictive frame may also be known as a bi-directional frame.
Techopedia explains Bi-Directional Predictive Frame (B-Frame)
Using other factors like slices per frame, experts are able to come up with more precise compression ratios for these types of MPEG files. New techniques such as temporal trajectory filtering can also help. New MPEG standards are maintained by the Motion Picture Experts Group, a creation of the International Organization for Standardization and the International Electrotechnical Commission.

Floydada in Floyd County, Texas — The American South (West South Central)
Coronado in Blanco Canyon
The exact route along which their Indian guides led the Spaniards between Pecos Pueblo in New Mexico and the Arkansas River in Kansas has long been a subject of debate among historians. Surviving documents are brief, vague and occasionally contradictory. Twice in the spring of 1541, the company camped long enough to have created detectable archeological evidence; the first time, they chose the site of a Teya Indian camp. A hailstorm struck, destroying most, if not all, of their pottery. They occupied a second camp for two weeks in a canyon that was described as being "a league wide."
In the 1950s and 1960s, two pieces of chain mail were discovered by local ranchers in and near Blanco Canyon. Since 1993, a series of other objects, both European and from other parts of the southwest, have been found in the same
Erected 2000 by Texas Historical Commission. (Marker Number 12355.)
Location. 33° 53.525′ N, 101° 21.596′ W. Marker is in Floydada, Texas, in Floyd County. Marker is on US 62. Touch for map. US-62, roadside park, 8 miles S. of Floydada. Marker is in this post office area: Floydada TX 79235, United States of America.

My MM URL: http://www.modelmayhem.com/AmyPe
Mayhem # 2979175
About Me** Currently represented by edge agency in Saskatoon: http://www.edgeagency.com/ **
I love being in front of the camera and I am at ease at it. I am an experienced model since childhood, and after a break of a few years I have become heavily involved in modeling once again. Please note, I am not interested in any glamor or explicit nude photos, but I don't mind doing shoots in bikini or lingerie, so long as it is paid assignment and kept tasteful. I also bring an escort if I don't know you, so expect the first shoot to be accompanied. Please understand that safety has to come first.
Compensation: For the moment, I do selective TFP/CD as I don't have as much time as I want to, sadly. I will definitely consider TF if it brings something new and interesting to my port, but you can always ask. Otherwise it is paid assignment (my rates are reasonable).
Wardrobe: I have a basic wardrobe. If you want something very specific, most likely you will need to provide it. I'm more than happy to find what you're looking for and pick it up before the shoot if I'm being reimbursed (assuming it's something I don't want to keep).
Hair/Makeup: I can do my own basic makeup and hair, but if you want a very professional result or something more elaborate, we can work together on getting a MUA. I wear my makeup and hair the same basic way day-to-day, and make no claims at being an expert with either.
Travel: I'm not traveling much these days, so unfortunately unless you can come to me, I probably won't be in your area. The exception to this is Saskatchewan and Montreal, since I am going back and forth for family.
Communication: I prefer to keep important details about the shoot in MM messages. I will talk to you on the phone, if that is your preference, or by e-mail.
References: Available upon request.
Other Stuff:
- I don't have any tattoos.
- I wear glasses. I am able to shoot with or without.
- I normally have wavy black hair with dark red highlights, but I usually straighten my hair.
** Note: **
Please send me any model release form in advance in order for me to read it before the shoot.

A simple and direct flow injection (FIA) procedure has been developed for the determination of the stabilizing agent ethanol in chloroform samples. The procedure is based on the use of the absorbance band of ethanol in the near-infrared (NIR) region at 2272 nm, measured in front of a reference sample of chloroform stabilized with amylene. The method developed provides a limit of detection of 0.0045% (v/v) and a dynamic range until 10% (v/v) with a typical variation coefficient of 0.4% for six independent analysis of a real sample containing approximately 1% (v/v) of ethanol. The sample injection frequency allowed by the method is 78 h−1.

Accrington primary schoolteacher Lucy Meadows, who had transitioned during the Christmas holidays, was found dead at her home last Tuesday. There were no suspicious circumstances though the cause of her death is not yet known. Even so a number of people have assumed that Lucy took her own life. There is a shockingly high incidence (34%) of attempted suicide among transgender people:
Some people are laying the blame for her death on the media's handling of her transition, especially a Daily Mail opinion piece (now removed from the Mail's website) which argued that Lucy should have changed schools on transition. This is why a candlelit vigil for Lucy is to be held outside the Daily Mail's offices in London at 6.30pm tonight.
Lucy's transition had been covered, just prior to Christmas, by a local paper which reported that some parents were unhappy about her returning to school as a woman. The Church of England school where she worked, and the Diocese, which had been fully informed of what was happening, appear to have been supportive, and the parents appropriately informed. However, some of the parents' comments, as reported, suggest that they didn't appreciate the difference between transition and cross dressing.
It was one of these parents, reported in the local paper back in December, who made the suggestion that the teacher should have made a fresh start in another school on transition. This, of course, used to be the way gender transition was managed, by building a completely new identity in another community. As well as being artificial – especially when people were encouraged to create a former life as if their earlier one had not existed – it could be very stressful, as it removed people from their support networks and the routines of daily life. Nowadays 'the real life experience' tends to happen where people are, within their own families and at their current workplace (though some people do tend to move on shortly after transition, usually because they have 'moved on' psychologically and spiritually or so that they can do so).
One mother commented that her children were happy with what was happening and that their education was all that she cared about, adding, wisely, that Lucy was not the first teacher to transition and would not be the last.
Indeed, I can think of two teacher friends who had brushes with the press but who escaped the sort of exposure that befell Lucy. One was referred to in the local paper, just like Lucy, when the school announced her transition, but it was all very matter of fact, and the story was not developed once she had returned to work. The other, at a much more high profile school, invited the journalist into her home when he called, and having talked through what would be happening, was delighted to hear him ask her, 'I don't think there's story here, do you?'
And that is how it should have been for Lucy. Although in a public role the story of her transition was hardly in the public interest. It was, as the school insisted, a personal matter, and one for which Lucy had requested privacy so that she could focus on her job to which she was committed. She certainly should not have ended up being discussed in the Daily Mail but this is what happens to Trans people, as was demonstrated – twice over – to the Leveson Inquiry: shortly after Trans Media Watch had submitted its evidence of disrespectful handling of trans people's stories, Helen Belcher returned to the Inquiry with more glaring examples that had appeared in the press in the intervening days.
But if our press is not sufficiently regulated the blogosphere is even more laissez faire. One of my friends is concerned that it is actually other Trans people who have continued to breach Lucy's request for privacy by writing blogs and sending tweets about her before we even know how she died and prior to her funeral. I can understand where she is coming from, and I have deliberately not included links in this post, so that readers are not encouraged to trawl through the coverage. But I can also understand why people are angry about the press's empty promises of good practice in relation to Trans people, and at the insensitive way in which transgender people's stories are often reported. Overnight, whether or not there is a link between her death and the press coverage that preceded it, Lucy has become symbolic of the hurt done to Trans people by the media, a martyr if you like, and that is why candles will be lit for her tonight. Let's all say a prayer for her at half-past six this evening.

Efficacy and safety of a combination of Sabal and Urtica extract in lower urinary tract symptoms—long-term follow-up of a placebo-controlled, double-blind, multicenter trial

In an open-label extension of a randomized, double-blind clinical trial, the long-term efficacy and tolerability of a fixed combination of 160 mg Sabal fruit extract WS 1473 and 120 mg Urtica root extract WS 1031 per capsule (PRO 160/120) were investigated in elderly men with moderate or severe lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Two hundred and fifty-seven patients were randomly treated with 2 × 1 capsule/day PRO 160/120 or placebo for 24 weeks, followed by a 24-week control period and a 48-week follow-up period in which all patients received PRO 160/120. Efficacy measures included the assessment of LUTS [International Prostate Symptom Score ((I-PSS) self-rating questionnaire] and uroflow and sonographic parameters. Two hundred and nineteen subjects participated in the follow-up. Between baseline and end of observation (week 96) the I-PSS total score was reduced by 53% (P < 0.001), peak and average urinary flow increased by 19% (P < 0.001), and residual urine volume decreased by 44% (P = 0.03). The incidence of adverse events during follow-up was one in 1,181 treatment days; in only one event a causal relationship with intake of PRO 160/120 could not be excluded. Treatment with PRO 160/120 thus provides a clinically relevant benefit over a period of 96 weeks.

Target recently opened its new experimental space in San Francisco, dubbed "Open House," and Drug Store News is offering readers a first look at the venue.
Target is set to open its largest CityTarget store ever, and the first on the East Coast, at the end of July.
New Rite Aid operations EVP Bryan Everett led the rollout of a new format and new store and remodeling programs while also overseeing pharmacy and clinic operations at Target.
Target's EVP, chief merchandising and supply chain officer, Kathee Tesija, will move into an advisory role, effective July 6, the company announced on Thursday.
CVS will secure 80 retail clinic locations as part of the Target pharmacy acquisition.
"Mad Money" host Jim Cramer spoke with both CVS Health president and CEO Larry Merlo and Target chairman and CEO Brian Cornell to get some additional insight into the deal between the two companies.
While online sales of allergy products may still be relatively low, thousands of consumers are making these purchases online — and many millions more are using the Web to learn about products and decide which brands to purchase.
Target plans to sell its pharmacy business to CVS Health for $1.9 billion and rebrand its nearly 1,700 prescription departments as CVS/pharmacy in a blockbuster deal that stunned the healthcare world.
Target said the plan to double the amount of its share buyback authorization represents a continued focus on returning cash to shareholders.

NEW YORK — U.S. stocks are closing slightly lower today after hitting their latest record highs last week.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell 44 points, or 0.3 percent, to close at 17,024. It closed above 17,000 for the first time Thursday. The markets were closed Friday.
The Standard & Poor's 500 slipped seven points, or 0.4 percent, to 1,977. The Nasdaq fell 34 points, or 0.8 percent, to 4,451.
Trading was quiet as investors returned from the Independence Day holiday in the United States.
Investors were making moves to decrease their exposure to risk. Small-company stocks fell more than the rest of the market, and investors parked money in safe-play stocks like utilities and phone companies.
Delta and other airline stocks fell after the Transportation Security Administration announced new security measures that would impact international flights into the United States.

Set on stilts over the Arabian Gulf, next to the cotton-white Burj Al Arab, Pierchic has never more lived up to the latter part of its name than it does now. Wide-open windows lend an al fresco vibe, and a salty breeze brings the interior's swish, beachy hues to life. On arrival, guests are offered a welcome drink and freshly shucked oysters at the bar – but don't slurp down too many, there's a five-course procession to get through.
First, a cold seafood platter, where sweet, tender lobster and plump prawns are the stars, swiftly followed by a vessel bearing a rosemary-skewered prawn, atop a nest of slightly too soft tagliatelle. But it's soup to the rescue. Served in a delicate coffee cup, the next course, a creamy lobster bisque, delivers an ocean-packed punch.
Though the seams are now rapidly coming away on our brunching attire, we're powerless to resist the fruity baked Alaska. Sadly, despite struggling valiantly, our waiter is unable to set our flambéed plums alight, and retreats, defeated.
Having only just launched, there are a few niggles in the Brunch en Blanc experience that are in need of fine-tuning. But with a setting quite unlike any other and a real focus on the food, not one of them will stop us returning.
The bottom line A generous, not-so-wildly expensive brunch for seafood lovers (it's Dhs575 with selected beverages).

The chances of Leandro Damiao moving to Tottenham look to have receded yet further after the Brazillian said he expected to stay at Internacional "for a long time".
Tottenham were heavily linked with a move for the striker during the January transfer window, with manager Andre Villas-Boas singling out the 23-year-old as his main target.
Reports emerged on deadline day that Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy had made a last ditch attempt to bring the Brazilian to White Hart Lane. However, the bid, understood to be in the region of £13m, was unsuccessful.
When quizzed about the deal after the close of the window, Villas-Boas indicated that Tottenham might have ended their interest in the Brazil international.
"We have made it public before that he is a player that we chase, but we couldn't agree on the full conditions so we've moved on," he said.
Whether Tottenham are interested in returning for Leandro in the summer may be inconsequential after the player said that while flattered by the interest shown in him, he was happy at Internacional.
"Internacional's president Giovanni Luigi knows I always wanted to stay, regardless of any offers that could come," he said.
"I certainly thank Tottenham. They are a big club in Europe but my focus is on Inter.
"I hope to help Inter for a long time. I have a long contract and I am very happy and focused."

Panasonic PT-FX500U 5000-Lumen XGA LCD Projector
- Brightness of 5000 Lumens
- XGA (1024 x 768) Native Resolution
- 1.32 to 2.44:1 Throw Ratio
- Composite, Two VGA, Two HDMI Inputs
- VGA Output for Loop-Through
- Analog Audio Input and Output
- Compatible with PJLink, Crestron, & AMX
- Built-In 10-Watt Speaker
- Ethernet and RS-232 Controllable
- IR Remote Included
Enjoy bright images in most everyday settings with the Panasonic PT-FX500U 5000-Lumen XGA LCD Projector . Its 5000 lumens of brightness combined and 10,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio will work together to overcome light in moderately bright rooms and provide detail in dark areas of the image. It sports a 1024 x 768 XGA native resolution for viewing detailed video, pictures, or data. The projector's 1.32 to 2.44:1 throw ratio will allow you to place it near the back of the room with no loss of focus.
The PT-FX500U features two HDMI, two VGA, and a composite video input to connect to nearly any device. One of the VGA inputs also functions as an output for daisy chaining other projectors or displays with the same video source. Its analog audio input and output and built-in 10W speaker will ensure that audio accompanies your video. It is controllable via the included remote control, by Ethernet, or RS-232 with PJLink, Crestron, or AMX software.
Picture Quality
- Delivers up to 5000 Lumens
- The PT-FX500U features 5000 lumens of brightness to produce bright and clear images even with the lights on. Documents with text and graphics are easy to read, while still images and video are reproduced with colorful vibrancy.
- Dynamic Contrast Ratio of 10,000:1 with Iris
- High dynamic contrast ratio of 10,000:1 is enabled by an iris mechanism, so that white appears white and black appears black�not dark gray�with minimal loss in detail for clear images.
- XGA Native Resolution
- The PT-FX500U features a native resolution of 1024 x 768 (XGA) for clear, detailed images.
- Image Optimization for Bright Ambient Light
- Panasonic's Daylight View Basic uses a built-in sensor to measure ambient light and calibrate image projection appropriately, optimizing brightness and halftone color and sharpening details to produce easy-to-see pictures in well-lit rooms.
- DICOM Simulation Mode for Medical Presentations
- The PT-FX500U offers a DICOM Simulation Mode that allows the projector to simulate the results of devices compliant with the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) Part 14 standardized display function, for display of grayscale images. The DICOM Simulation Mode, which supports both Blue and Clear Base, adjusts the gradation between the minimum and the maximum luminance, so gradation is distributed optimally. This feature is optimized for displaying medical images such as X-rays, CAT scans, and MRIs, which makes the PT-FX500U useful for non-diagnostic purposes such as lectures, academic meetings, and hospital conferences. This feature is recommended for use in medical schools for training and educational use only.
Low Total Cost of Ownership
- Long Lamp Replacement Cycle
- The PT-FX500U extends lamp replacement to 8000 hours with lamp power set to Eco, or 6000 hours with lamp power set to Normal, reducing operating costs, labor, and environmental impact.
- Dustproof Cabinet with Dual-Layer Eco Filter
- If dust gets inside the projector's optical unit, brightness suffers. The PT-FX500U protects against dust intrusion with a one-way airflow path and improved sealing for the lens block, air intake duct, and dual-layer Eco Filter. This pleated, dual-layer electrostatic filter captures the tiniest dust particles and requires no maintenance for 16,000 hours. It also can be washed and reused. These dustproof projectors are specifically designed to maintain brightness for longer in high-traffic environments while reducing the cost of servicing.
- Eco Management Slashes Power Consumption
- A variety of Eco Management functions are accessible via a button on the remote control. These include brightness optimization for ambient light conditions, and lamp power reduction when no input signal is detected.
- Easy-Access Lamp and Filter
- To reduce hassle, the filter can be replaced via the side, and the lamp from the top of the projector. There's no need to remove the unit from its ceiling mount for periodic maintenance.
- Quiet Operation in ECO Mode
- The quiet design reduces operating noise to just 29 dB, with the sound of the cooling fan hardly noticeable. This helps to keep the audience focused on the presentation.
Easy Setup and System Integration
- Wide-Range 1.8x Zoom and Lens Shift
- The inclusion of a 1.8x zoom and joystick-operated wide-range lens shift grants flexibility for installation in different rooms and for projection on different screen sizes. To produce a 100"-diagonal widescreen image, projection distance extends from approximately 8.5' to approximately 16.1'.
- Installation Simplified with DIGITAL LINK
- With the optional DIGITAL LINK Switcher, you can receive wired video signals (up to 1080p resolution) from up to 492' away in Long Reach Mode.
- Project onto Curved Surfaces
- Horizontal, vertical, and corner keystone correction adjusts the image shape for clear visibility when projecting off-axis or from an unusual angle. Curved Screen Correction allows for the projection of natural, distortion-free images onto curved or cylindrical surfaces.
- Lens-Centered Design
- A symmetrical lens-centered design reduces installation complexity and makes the PT-FX500U easier to adapt to a wider range of installation sites.
- Project Wirelessly with Optional Module
- The optional ET-WML100 wireless USB module enables projection of a variety of media via Windows computers, iOS devices, or Android devices loaded with an appropriate app. Whether projecting from desk or ceiling, there's no need for cables, and it's also possible to display content from more than one device at a time in Multi-Live Mode.
- With Presenter Light Ver. 1.0 for Windows computers, stills, video, documents (including PDF and PowerPoint files), and other media displayed on the computer screen can be wirelessly projected, and images from up to four computers can be projected simultaneously.
- With VueMagic Pro for iOS and Android devices, selected still image and document formats (including PDF files) are supported. VueMagic Pro features Live Camera Mode and Annotate Mode, and images from up to four devices can be projected simultaneously.
- Integrates into Existing A/V Infrastructure
- With support for PJLink Class 1, Crestron Connected, AMX, and RS-232C over wired LAN, any legacy unit can be swapped out for a PT-FX500U projector without disrupting existing control and management infrastructure. Emulation via RS-232C allows original settings to be preserved. In addition, the Multi-Monitoring and Control Software is available for monitoring and controlling multiple Panasonic projectors from a single computer.
- Multi-Monitoring & Control Software
- This software lets you control and monitor multiple projectors/displays at the same time over wired LAN. If a problem occurs, an alert is sent to the monitoring/controlling computer. The terminal panel is LED-illuminated and control panel buttons are backlit for easy operation in the dark.
- Optional Early Warning Software ET-SWA100 Series
- Early Warning Software monitors the status of projectors and displays connected to an intranet, informing the operator when an abnormality is detected or predicted and when there are symptoms of trouble. This minimizes downtime to provide more stable operation.

text: Page Content When it comes to archaeology, few places in the UK have more to offer than Winchester. It was Roman Venta Belgarum (the market place of the Belgii tribe) and the Anglo-Saxon capital of the Kingdom of Wessex. These days, Winchester is better known for its outstanding medieval architecture and institutions, including the splendid Cathedral, Bishop's Palace and Winchester College. Along with regional monuments such as Stonehenge and Fishbourne Roman villa, these provide a rich teaching resource located within easy travelling distance from the University. Research However, we do not just focus on our immediate environs; our staff are currently working as far afield as the Caribbean, a number of Mediterranean countries and the Caucasus, as well as in the UK and continental Europe. Students have the opportunity to join staff on several of these research projects (find out more). Photos, left to right: Winchester students excavating a WW II bomber crash site in Germany, alongside German and Dutch students; students processing environmental samples (flotation); students sampling a feature at the current training excavation in Winchester, the 'leper hospital'.Undergraduate courses The Department is the home for a growing range of humanities-, science- and vocationally-based undergraduate Archaeology programmes.Postgraduate study We run two Master's programmes, while research students are accepted in any subject area for which we have staff expertise. Quality and Satisfaction In the most recent Quality Assurance Agency audit of university archaeology teaching, we were one of only four departments to be awarded the maximum 24/24 grade.We have 'Registered Organisation' status within the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists (CIfA). This recognises our emphasis on vocational, practical skills and the high quality of the teaching/ training we offer. According to the most recent Guardian ranking of top universities for Archaeology courses, 94% of our students was satisfied with their course and 94.7% with the teaching.

A significant number of studies report that individuals suffering from chronic inflammatory diseases including allergic and autoimmune diseases have a higher incidence of psychiatric complications related to increased emotional reactivity and poor coping responses to stress. Such mental complications including depression and anxiety disorders impose a great burden to these patients which has been also related to the poor prognosis of the inflammatory condition. The reasons for this association are poorly understood and research on potential mechanisms is lacking. Results from our studies and those of our collaborator show that in experimentally controlled conditions, behavioral alterations indicative of increased emotional reactivity develop as a result of the activity of peripheral lymphocytes which are responsible for the initiation and maintenance of inflammatory diseases. There is however significant controversy if the activity of these immune cells is directly related with neurobehavioral mechanisms or if it is a phenomenon that develops in parallel with other neuroimmunological processes responsible for the manifestation of behavioral pathology. The present application will evaluate if activated T lymphocytes in the periphery are necessary and sufficient to induce emotional behavioral changes. Using state of the art methods in immunology by employing the RAG2-/- deficient mice which lacks mature T lymphocytes, we plan to assess if reconstitution by adoptive transfer of in vitro differentiated T cells is a condition capable of inducing altered emotional behavior and deficient responses to psychogenic stressors. RAG2-/- mice will be reconstituted with either in vitro differentiated TH1 or TH2 cells obtained from RAG2 D011.10 transgenic mice. These mice express the transgene for the T-cell antigen receptor that is specific for ovalbumin and therefore these animals do contain OVA specific T-cells. Groups of reconstituted mice will be then challenged with OVA antigen and evaluated in the open field, elevated plus maze, social interaction and sucrose preference tests. Control groups will consist of naive RAG2-/- mice under different immunization protocols and reconstituted RAG2-/- mice not immunized (not activated). Based on our recent studies about trafficking of activated T cells into the brain and their effects on cytokine expression, their presence in the brain will be studied by immunohistochemistry and cytokine mRNA expression by real-time RT-PCR. These experiments are proposed within the framework of an R21 application to test if differences on behavior under the different reconstitution strategies are quantifiable. These studies may provide a working model to further study the mechanisms by which lymphocytes exert specific effects on brain function and behavior and yield valuable information on neuroimmune mechanisms involving the adaptive arm of the immune response. This may advance the understanding of mind-body interaction and lead to the development of new strategies of interventions to improve the treatment of mental disorders in chronically ill patients.
Chronic inflammatory diseases including allergic and autoimmune diseases are highly prevalent in the U.S. Studies have documented that individuals suffering from these conditions have a high incidence of anxiety and depressive disorders. However, the mechanisms underlying this relationship are poorly understood. The present studies will evaluate if the activity of differentiated lymphocytes are responsible for neurobehavioral alterations during peripheral inflammation. The results of the proposed experiments may lead to new strategies of intervention for balancing emotions in chronically ill patients.
