Can Collagen Powder Actually Make Your Skin Younger"
There?s no doubt that your diet has a heavy hand in the appearance of your skin, including in how quickly and drastically your skin will age. For instance, a high-sugar diet is reliably linked to faster-aging skin (in case you needed any more motivation to step away from the sweets).
Yet, what about the opposite effect" Can we consume things that will reduce the appearance of aging and give our skin that fresh glow" Collagen powder is at the center of the debate, so here?s what we know about how it affects your skin.
The ABCs of Collagen
It helps to know a little background about why collagen powder is thought of as an anti-aging supplement. You probably already know that our skin is comprised mostly of collagen. The breaking down of that collagen (which, yikes, starts in our 20s) is what leads to aged skin. The logic here basically says if we consume collagen while our bodies are losing it, we can replace what?s being lost and obtain younger-looking skin. Now, here?s the murky side of this claim. But Does it Work"
In theory, yes ? collagen powder (also known as hydrolyzed collagen or collagen peptides) is highly digestible, so our bodies get straight to using it right away. The problem here is that we don?t have much more than theory to go on. Most studies are too small to be reliable. They are funded by the same companies who make a collagen powder product, making their veracity pretty dubious.
There is one shimmering study of hope, however. One double-bl...

S. Zola (Jagiellonian University) et al. (ATel #9489) report that the BL Lac object OJ 287 has emerged from conjunction optically very bright and increasing in brightness, according to their observations made at Mt. Suhora Observatory in August and September 2016.
Their observations and recent observations of this blazar in the AAVSO International Database include:
September 18, 2012: AAVSO observer Klaus Wenzel (Grossostheim, Germany) noted that the BL Lacertae object PKS 0716+71 (== S5 0716+714) is currently brighter than it has been in several years, being at magnitude 12.7 (visual) on 2012 September 13.1354 (JD 2456183.6354). This AGN is highly variable on short timescales, but recent observations of this object indicate that it remains bright.
November 18, 2010: As was noted by AAVSO observer E. Erdelyi (Carlsbad, CA, USA) in a post to cvnet-discussion, the BL Lac object 3C 454.3 (AUID 000-BDC-612) appears to be undergoing a bright flare; the object was recorded by Erdelyi at V=13.659(0.013) on 2010 November 10.2708 (JD 2455510.7708). The last flare of comparable brightness was observed in 2007, when the object reached V ~ 13.4 around JD 2454335 (late August 2007).

Oklahoma City buildings evacuated for fear truck outside held bomb
OKLAHOMA CITY -- Oklahoma City police have ordered the evacuation of City Hall and nearby buildings after a stolen U-Haul truck was discovered outside the building.
Police Capt. Dexter Nelson says a five- to six-block area was cordoned off Wednesday while the city's fire department and bomb squad investigate the truck.
Nelson says the evacuations were ordered as a precaution and that there was no evidence that suggested there might be a bomb in the truck.
Nelson says Oklahoma has always been a "hyper-vigilant" state after the Oklahoma City bombing, and that Monday's bombings at the Boston Marathon give even more reason for caution.
On April 19, 1995, Timothy McVeigh detonated explosives packed into a yellow Ryder rental truck, killing 168 people in and near the Oklahoma City federal building.

Everyone rags on Israel, why don't they ever call out the Jew haters for [expletive deleted] like this?
Abbas says he will never recognize a Jewish state
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas said that he will never recognize a Jewish state during an interview on an Egyptian television channel.
Abbas also told Dream 2 TV in an Oct. 23 interview that capturing Gilad Shalit was a "good thing."
. . .
"They started talking to me about the 'Jewish state' only two years ago, discussing it with me at every opportunity, every forum I went to — Jewish or non-Jewish — asking: 'What do you think about the "Jewish state"?' I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I will never recognize the Jewishness of the state, or a 'Jewish state,'" Abbas said.

RUSTENBURG, South Africa — Game time is just hours away, and the US say they're ready to go in this, the tone-setter of their entire World Cup experience.
A win over England probably isn't the objective. A draw would be a very positive result. A loss, while painful, wouldn't be as hard to swallow as long as the Americans show well for themselves and are simply beaten by a better team—and not by a lack of effort. As we've said all along, the US should advance to the knockout rounds if they defeat Slovenia and Algeria.
That said, the US won't be more familiar with an opponent than the one they face Saturday. England are a team full of recognizable faces. And that's not just because Premier League games are on American TV every weekend.
Thirteen players on the US squad either play their club soccer in England or are veterans of English leagues. For them, no advance scouting is necessary.
"They know what we have to offer, we know what we have to offer," said US captain Carlos Bocanegra, who previously played for Fulham, on Friday. "It's no secret, really, between the two teams. We're familiar with each other."
Will that mean Landon Donovan and Clint Dempsey have the keys to cracking the England defense and beating either David James or Robert Green in net?
That Bocanegra and Jay DeMerit have the knowhow to stop Wayne Rooney? Or that Jonathan Spector will neutralize some of England's flank speed from Ashley Cole?
"Is [our familiarity] going to have a huge impact on the game?" posed Landon Donovan earlier this week. "Probably not. But having some comfort that way will be helpful."
The US have all the scouting they need. That—plus playing in a stadium in which they staged their epic turnaround in last summer's Confederations Cup—means they have no excuses than to leave it all on the field.

'Only a matter of time before croc kills a child'
"IT is only a matter of time until a swimmer or a child is killed by a crocodile at Eimeo."
Those are the words of angry and frustrated Eimeo residents after years of asking the Queensland Government to remove a crocodile that frequents Eimeo Beach and Sunset Bay.
"He is over four metres long," Eimeo resident Majella Sammut said.
"The last time I saw the crocodile was earlier this year but I don't go swimming in the area, because I think there is a real danger, so I haven't seen him since then.
Ms Sammut said she had been in contact with the Queensland Department of Environment and Heritage Protection (EHP) which is responsible for the removal of crocodiles.
"They have looked for him and swear they can't find him, which is a load of crap," she said.
"I believe they are not interested until someone is injured or killed and by then it will be too late."
In an issue that has been ongoing for at least two years, LNP Member for the Whitsundays Jason Costigan raised the issue again on Saturday, claiming Queensland Environment Minister Dr Steven Miles "doesn't have the appetite to indulge" in a crocodile removal program in Mackay.
"Trying to trap a crocodile in the Mackay northern beaches for the State Government is like hunting for a Russian sub," Mr Costigan said.
"It appears that no one seems to be able to do the business of removing the crocodile and unfortunately it seems that it won't be removed until someone is most likely killed.
"I don't think there is an appetite for the Minister to indulge in such a program and I believe there is more chance of snow up at Eungella before he does something about it.
"What I can't work out is they are able to trap crocodiles in Cairns and Townsville but can't do so at the Mackay northern beaches."
On Sunday, Eimeo Surf Lifesaving Club held a surf lifesaving event during which more than 100 Nippers were swimming at Eimeo Beach.
The club's sports director, Alan Zamparutti, said the issue of the crocodile and its removal had been raised a number of times with the EHP and he had concerns for swimmers at the beach.
"Nothing ever seems to get done about it," Mr Zamparutti said
"We are very concerned, considering how close the creek is to where our Nippers swim, and it is disgusting that nothing has been done.
"Fisherman have told me that they have reported it to the EHP but what will it take to get it removed?
"They tell us that the crocodile needs to show aggressive behaviour before it can be removed but it seems as though the government won't do anything until someone is killed."
The last crocodile to be removed from the Mackay region was a 4.2 metre estuarine crocodile from Bakers Creek's effluent pond on April 23, 2015.
In the past five years 124 crocodile sightings in the region have been reported to the EHP. There have been 28 reported sightings this year alone.
The 124 reported crocodile sightings were investigated by EHP wildlife officers.
Dr Miles told the Daily Mercury that no government had done more on crocodile management than the Palaszczuk Government.
"This government has committed $5.8 million over the next three years for crocodile management, including $2.7 million for a crocodile survey and monitoring program," he said.
"We have also made the jobs of 10 wildlife officers permanent - their positions were only temporary under the LNP, so we are also creating more jobs in regional Queensland.
"The government has also been conducting consultation with key organisations such as regional councils, including Mackay Regional Council, State Government departments, conservation interests, the tourism sector, Surf Life Saving Queensland and other key stakeholders, as well as an online survey that was available to all.
"The results of this extensive consultation exercise are currently being analysed and will inform future crocodile management decisions."
Members of the public who see crocodiles are encouraged to report sightings as soon as possible to EHP wildlife officers by phoning 1300 130 372.
What you've said on social media
Athia Wasson-Hodgins: It's a beach... There are going to be dangerous things in there. If its not a croc its a shark or a jelly fish. You cannot remove everything that's scary out of their home and put them some where else so you can swim.
Petrina Johnson: Why are people staying off the beach?? Just keep a watchful eye. Daily mercury stop creating fear in people. We live in a area where crocs, jelly fish and other dangerous animals live and always have so be aware.
Eddie Higgins: Nah, we don't need enclosures. Just let the tourist swim free range, only the weak will be eaten.
Linda Van H: If this was Brisbane they would have moved that croc on the first time it was sighted.
Dean Ashley Rawlins: Ryan Bridge Craig Black another lovely looking fish just of the beach
Kieran Bird: Kerri Bird. This is our local beach. 5 mins down the road from us. Want to go for a swim when you come up?

Kentucky Department of Corrections: Creating a Prisoner Re-entry Program for Fathers, Inside and Outside Prison
89% of Kentucky's inmate population is male, and many are fathers, most of whom will return to their families and communities. However, the state did not have a program in place to serve dads, and it was required to use an evidence-based program. Moreover, they wanted to implement a program that would allow them to reach the dads after they left prison, too. So, NFI worked with them to create a re-entry program inside the prison and out. >> Read the entire case study here
ParentWise, Greensburg, PA: Integrating Diverse Fatherhood Services into the Work of a Large Community-Based Organization
ParentWise, a program of Family Services of Western Pennsylvania, needed to meet two specific needs: 1) they wanted programs designed specifically for dads, and 2) they needed to use an evidence-based program for their work in jails. NFI worked with them to deliver on those needs, and more. >> Read the entire case study here

FDA revisits safety of newer birth control drugs
WASHINGTON -- Birth control drugs that were heavily promoted as having fewer side effects and the ability to clear up acne and other hormonal bothers are under new scrutiny from safety regulators.
Research suggesting that newer birth control formulations are more likely to cause blood clots than older drugs has prompted the Food and Drug Administration to consider new safety measures in meetings later this week. The increased risk is slight but significant because blood clots can cause heart attacks, strokes and blockages in lungs or blood vessels, which can be fatal.
Regulators could order new warning labels on several contraceptives that gained popularity in the last decade, including Bayer's pill Yaz, which was the best-selling birth control pill in the U.S. for 2008 and 2009.
Yaz, Yasmin and similar drugs use a version of a female hormone which appears to reduce side effects found in older drugs, including bloating and mood swings.
Bayer AG spent more than $270 million on TV and magazine advertisements for Yaz between 2007 and 2010, according TNS Media Intelligence. Such big-budget campaigns are rare for birth control products. One advertisement featured young women singing the Twisted Sister anthem, "We're Not Gonna Take It," while popping balloons labeled "moodiness," ''bloating" and "acne."
Sales of Yaz have fallen since regulators forced Bayer to correct advertisements that overstated Yaz's benefits and as safety questions drew scrutiny in both the U.S. and Europe.
FDA also is reviewing research on clot risks associated with Johnson & Johnson's weekly Ortho Evra patch, which is marketed as an "option for busy women who are looking to simplify life." The drug uses a different version of the female hormone progestin than the pills under scrutiny.
Millions of women have used the products since they launched a decade ago, but recent studies comparing the medical histories of women taking the newer drugs to older ones suggest a slightly higher risk of blood clots in the legs and lungs. Last year, the U.S. market for female contraceptive drugs totaled $3.4 billion, according to IMS Health.
Sorting out the blood clot risk of birth control drugs is especially difficult because all hormone-based drugs increase the risk of clotting. Further complicating the issue is that clots can be caused by factors such as smoking, obesity or family history.
Yaz, Yasmin and other pills containing a synthetic hormone called drospirenone are the focus of a discussion Thursday. The next day's meeting focuses on the Ortho Evra patch, which uses the hormone norelgestromin.
Bayer says its studies have shown no difference in blood clot risk between its drugs and the older birth control drugs. But several large, independent studies suggest the risk with Yaz and similar medications is slightly higher. The latest analysis by the FDA estimates the risk of a blood clot with drospirenone-containing pills is 1.5-fold higher than other hormone-based contraceptives. That translates into an estimated 10 in 10,000 women on the newer drugs experiencing a blood clot, compared with 6 in 10,000 women on older contraceptives, according to the FDA.
"It's a very small percentage of patients that develop these, but it's such a serious side effect that I think doctors have to use a lot of caution," said Dr. Jennifer Wu, of Lenox Hill Hospital in New York.
Even if Yaz and other newer drugs get additional warning labels, some doctors say they don't expect to stop prescribing them. Doctors say the risk of blood clots with any birth control pill is still far lower than that associated with pregnancy and birth, when hormone levels and reduced blood flow increase clotting risk.
"At the end of the day I tell my patients the absolute risk is still very, very low compared to pregnancy and post-partum risk," said Dr. Rebecca Starck, of Cleveland Clinic's Fairview Hospital. "There are still many benefits to combination birth control pills."
The Ortho Evra patch already carries warning labels about an increased risk of blood clots compared with pills. Some, but not all, studies suggest patch users have twice the risk of clots. The FDA will try to further define that risk using the latest data.
Most birth control drugs use a combination of two female hormones, estrogen and progestin, to stop ovulation and help block sperm. But for decades many women have reported bloating and mood swings as side effects.
Introduced in 2001, Yasmin was the first birth control pill to use a new form of progestin called drospirenone, which appeared to have fewer side effects. The reformulated version of the drug, Yaz, was approved in 2006 with new claims on the label that it decreased acne and a severe type of mood disorder.
Yaz quickly grew into the best-selling birth control pill in the U.S. Sales plummeted more than 50 percent in 2010, after the company was forced to run corrective TV and magazine advertisements. Among other problems, the FDA said the company's commercials suggested Yaz could treat premenstrual syndrome when it has only been shown to decrease incidence of premenstrual dysphoric disorder, a severe mood disorder associated with major depression. Less than 8 percent of U.S. women experience the disorder, according to the National Institutes of Health.
Yaz currently ranks fourth in sales among contraceptive pills in the U.S. Last year doctors wrote roughly 13 million prescriptions for Yaz and two generic versions of the drug, according to IMS Health. Doctors prescribed the Ortho Evra patch nearly 1.6 million times.
Newer drugs like Yaz are no more effective than older pills, generally allowing one unplanned pregnancy per year for every 100 women.
"Many women will do fine on the older generation drugs, but some women will not," said Dr. Petra Casey, of the Mayo Clinic. "I think the newer drugs help many women in terms of mood and the water retention."
About 4,000 lawsuits against Bayer argue that any additional risk with the newer drugs should have been detected and emphasized to the public.
On Thursday, Cindy Rippee will tell the FDA panel about her 20-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, who died Christmas Eve 2008 when a blood clot traveled to her lung. Rippee says her daughter had been taking Yasmin for about two months.
"I really feel that if my daughter had been told about the increased risk she would have made a different decision," said Rippee, of Escondido, Calif.

QB Wilson going to Rangers Spring Training
SURPRISE, Ariz. -- Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson has made it official -- at least on Twitter -- that he is coming to Rangers camp.
Wilson, who led Seattle to a Super Bowl title earlier this month, tweeted a photo of himself Thursday holding up a Rangers jersey and said: "Hey Rangers fans ... See you at 'Surprise' Arizona on March 3!"
The Rangers have not completely planned out what Wilson will do while he is in Spring Training. But general manager Jon Daniels said Wilson will likely be added to the Major League Spring Training roster and have a locker in the big league clubhouse.
Hey @Rangers fans... See you at "Surprise" Arizona on March 3! #SpringTraining pic.twitter.com/ZiaEmtL0nW- Russell Wilson (@DangeRussWilson) February 20, 2014
The Rangers selected Wilson in the Minor League phase of the Rule 5 Draft at the Winter Meetings last December. The Rangers paid $12,000 to take him from the Rockies organization, where he was a Minor League infielder in 2010-11. The Rangers don't expect him to give up football but they do see significant benefits of having a championship professional athlete around their young players even if it is only for a few weeks.
"The guy has had a lot of success and he has a championship attitude," manager Ron Washington said. "We're going to give him a chance to talk to our young kids and see what happens. Maybe [shortstop Elvis Andrus] and some of those young guys can hang with him and see what he has to offer."

There has long been chatter that Clay/Liston II, in which Sonny Liston went down to a phantom punch, wasn't on the up-and-up. But documents obtained by the Washington Times show the FBI suspected that their first fight, in 1964, may have been fixed by the mob.
That first fight, held 50 years ago yesterday in Miami Beach, made Cassius Clay (who has not yet publicly announced joining the Black Muslims or his name change to Muhammad Ali) a star. Liston refused to answer the bell for the seventh round, and Clay gave a now-famous postfight speech.
The FBI investigation focused on Ash Resnick, a longtime Las Vegas fixture who had ties to some of the biggest names in organized crime, including Meyer Lansky and members of the Genovese family. Though Resnick was only ever convicted of income tax evasion, he was long dogged by allegations, and was once shot while leaving a casino. On another occasion, eight sticks of dynamite were discovered under his car.
FBI agents interviewed gambler Barnett Magids two years after the fight, and he told them Resnick had inside information that Liston was going to lose.
"Two or three days before the fight, Magids called Resnick at the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami to say he could not come," the memo states. "On this call, he asked Resnick who he liked in the fight, and Resnick said that Liston would knock Clay out in the second round. Resnick suggested he wait until just before the fight to place any bets because the odds may come down.
"At about noon on the day of the fight, [Magids] reached Resnick again by phone, and at this time, Resnick said for him to not make any bets, but just go watch the fight on pay TV and he would know why and that he could not talk further at that time.
"Magids did go see the fight on TV and immediately realized that Resnick knew that Liston was going to lose," the document states. "A week later, there was an article in Sports Illustrated writing up Resnick as a big loser because of his backing of Liston. Later people 'in the know' in Las Vegas told Magids that Resnick and Liston both reportedly made over $1 million betting against Liston on the fight and that the magazine article was a cover for this."
Liston quit the fight citing a bad shoulder, and a Florida state attorney investigation found that he had entered the fight with the injury. But David Remnick spoke to one of Liston's cornermen for his book, King of the World, and was told the shoulder "was all BS...cooked up on the spot" so as not to jeopardize Liston's rematch with Clay.
That return bout was even more controversial, ending on a maybe-glancing blow in the first round that confused even Clay (by then, Ali) and led to one of the greatest sports photographs of all time.
The FBI continued its surveillance of Ash Resnick, with one report later stating that Resnick "is the fix point of two heavyweight title fights — both Liston. He had always been and will continue to be a corruption source for professional sports until he is stopped."
Resnick was also involved in basketball, playing a part in the point-shaving scandals that rocked New York college hoops in the 1950s. A 1972 FBI noted his NBA ties:
"Was deeply involved with Wilt Chamberlain during the 68-69 big year — when Chamberlain performed poorly — Wilt was Ash guest at Caesars Palace almost every open weekend when the Lakers were at home or Phoenix."
There is no evidence that Ali was ever aware of any rigged fights (or that any were thrown in the first place) and any potential taint of the Clay/Liston duology faded after Ali's dominant run and Liston's death under mysterious circumstances in 1971.

Continuing as begun from post #06- Inaccurate PAIN Assessments because of no Patient Pain Understanding– As stated previously 'with no relational corresponding pain chart there is more space for inaccuracies.' There is also more likelihood of not doing more work based on the inaccurate assessments already made and reported on by doctors. This in turn enhances the likelihood that a basic to care for problem is made worse, like I am having.
More Than the Basic Details For Pain Assessments- Dr. Savage
There are also the depth details of pain assessments done that do not necessarily have corresponding values for all people. This article for assessing chronic pain states, "For a doctor to get a good sense of your chronic pain, just pointing to a single face or number isn't enough. Your doctor will need some context, says Seddon R. Savage, MD, incoming president of the American Pain Society and an adjunct associate professor of anesthesiology at Dartmouth Medical School in Hanover, N.H. "I ask people to remember the worst pain they've ever experienced in their lives,' Savage tells WebMD. 'It might be a kidney stone or childbirth. That level of pain becomes the benchmark to which we compare the current pain.'"
I never was pregnant, and I have never had a kidney stone, so my estimate doesn't even relate to others that way if it was ever requested. Other examples like the UTI & Dental Care without Novacaine or pain may assist doctors, but they are still hesitant about accepting comparables when they don't associate with those mentally.
For Patients- Describing Your Chronic Pain
As we have already seen with the information of this document, the assessments by doctors are based on the searches they have done, but "Your doctor needs to know not just how much the pain hurts, but how the pain hurts, says Savage [from the article from WebMD entitled Using the Pain Scale: How to Talk About Pain.
The kind of pain you're feeling can say a lot about the cause, experts say. Cohen says that pain that's caused by tissue injury — like arthritis or a back injured while shoveling snow — tends to be like a dull ache.
But nerve pain, which could be caused by many conditions, such as diabetes and carpal tunnel syndrome, typically causes a more distinctive shooting pain. Others describe it as burning, buzzing, or electrical pain. Nerve pain is also associated with other sensations that aren't painful in themselves, like tingling or numbness, Cohen says.
Savage says that it's also important to discuss any variations in your pain. How does it change during the day? What makes it hurt more? What makes it hurt less?
When you see a pain expert, go in prepared. Be ready to describe your chronic pain, as specifically as you can, along with details about when the pain started. The more information you have, the easier it will be for your doctor to help treat your pain…"
The stink of this is that doctors assess a person as having chronic pain, without ever even referring the patient to a PAIN EXPERT. In fact there may be legitimate pain issues that are totally ignored, like the fact that a broken bone happened, but there are multiple bones in the area and the assessments of X-rays, CT scans, and MRI tests were not ever examined by a person who looked at the correct placement of the pain.
An estimated doctoral assessment of chronic pain does not mean that the pain is constant or consistently the same or in the exact same location, but without an accurate way of making assessments, doctors are likely to do what is easy instead of what is needed. The WebMD article continues with more information of great value for people seeking to get treatment that is accurate. But all of the wonderful advice of the article WILL ONLY WORK IF the patient persists in working at getting accurate assessments AND doesn't fall onto the prescribed drugs as a real treatment.
How Does Your Chronic Pain Affect You?
Beyond the severity and the type of chronic pain, there's a third factor you need to discuss. "It's really important to talk to your doctor about how your pain affects your life," says Savage. It's a crucial and often overlooked detail… Savage says that you should think about the specific ways your chronic pain is affecting you.
- Does pain wake you up at night?
- Has chronic pain made you change your habits?
- Do you no longer go on walks because the pain is too severe?
- Has it affected your performance on the job — maybe even putting your ability to work in jeopardy?
Giving specifics about how your chronic pain is impinging on your life and changing your behavior is key, Savage says. 'It helps your doctor understand how much you're suffering and appreciate the pain as [only part of the] problem that needs treatment,' she tells WebMD."
Notice how I varied that doctor's statement. It was done because my doctors have taken it upon themselves to offer assessments based on their inaccurate work and because I had not read through this article with articulation for the types of pain to share previously. This means there is a need for doctors to supply for patient's corresponding information that can be related to by the doctor…

See what questions
a doctor would ask.
Related medical mistakes may include:
Commonly undiagnosed conditions in related areas may include:
Undiagnosed stroke leads to misdiagnosed aphasia: BBC News UK reported on a man who had been institutionalized and treated for mental illness because he suffered from sudden inability to speak. This was initially misdiagnosed as a "nervous breakdown" and other mental conditions. He was later diagnosed as having had a stroke, and suffering from aphasia (inability to speak), a well-known complication of stroke (or other brain conditions).
Dementia may be a drug interaction: A common scenario in aged care is for a patient to show mental decline to dementia. Whereas this can, of course, occur due to various medical conditions, such as a stroke or Alzheimer's disease, it can also occur from a side effect or interaction between multiple drugs that the elderly patient may be taking. There are also various other possible causes of dementia.
ADHD under-diagnosed in adults: Although the over-diagnoses of ADHD in children is a well-known controversy, the reverse side related to adults. Some adults can remain undiagnosed, and indeed the condition has usually been overlooked throughout childhood. There are as many as 8 million adults with ADHD in the USA (about 1 in 25 adults in the USA). See misdiagnosis of ADHD or symptoms of ADHD.
Bipolar disorder misdiagosed as various conditions by primary physicians: Bipolar disorder (manic-depressive disorder) often fails to be diagnosed correctly by primary care physicians. Many patients with bipolar seek help from their physician, rather than a psychiatrist or psychologist. See misdiagnosis of bipolar disorder.
Eating disorders under-diagnosed in men: The typical patient with an eating disorder is female. The result is that men with eating disorders often fail to be diagnosed or have a delayed diagnosis. See misdiagnosis of eating disorders or symptoms of eating disorders.
Depression undiagnosed in teenagers: Serious bouts of depression can be undiagnosed in teenagers. The "normal" moodiness of teenagers can cause severe medical depression to be overlooked. See misdiagnosis of depression or symptoms of depression.
Undiagnosed anxiety disorders related to depression: Patients with depression (see symptoms of depression) may also have undiagnosed anxiety disorders (see symptoms of anxiety disorders). Failure to diagnose these anxiety disorders may worsen the depression. See misdiagnosis of depression or misdiagnosis of anxiety disorders.
Rare types of medical disorders and diseases in related medical areas:
Read these general articles with an overview of misdiagnosis issues.
When checking for a misdiagnosis of Odontophilia or confirming a diagnosis of Odontophilia, it is useful to consider what other medical conditions might be possible misdiagnoses or other alternative conditions relevant to diagnosis. These alternate diagnoses of Odontophilia may already have been considered by your doctor or may need to be considered as possible alternative diagnoses or candidates for misdiagnosis of Odontophilia.

Annual PDK poll shows public opinions on education
By Larry Lee
Education Matters
The PDK poll of public attitudes about public schools has been a steady reflection of U.S. opinion since 1969. It is the most trusted source of public opinion about K-12 education because of its rigor, depth and commitment to capturing all voices and viewpoints.
And once again, the 2017 poll shows the ideas that lawmakers often tout as being just what education needs — vouchers, public money for private schools, increased standardized testing, etc. — are not supported by the public.
- When judging school quality, the public gives much more weight to students' job preparation and interpersonal development than to their standardized test scores.
- There is little public support for using public money to send children to private schools. The more people know about how voucher programs work, the less likely that are to support them.
- Some of the most prominent ideas that dominate current policy debates–from supporting vouchers to doubling down on high-stakes tests to cutting federal education funding–are out of step with parents' main concern: They want their children prepared for life after they complete high school.
- 82 percent support job or career skills classes even if that means students might spend less time in academic classes.
- 82 percent say that it is highly important for schools to help students develop interpersonal skills, such as being cooperative, respectful of others and persistent at solving problems.
- While 76 percent see advanced academic classes as highly important indicators of school quality, 70 percent say extracurricular activities are also very important.
- Less than half of all adults say performance on standardized tests is a highly important indicator of school quality.
- Wraparound services such as mental health services and after-school programs are receiving increasing attention as schools seek to ensure that students have the full range of supports they need to succeed.
- School quality is not determined by test scores. Every other potential quality metric tested in this survey far surpasses testing as a measure of school quality: having extracurricular activities, art and much, advanced academic classes, technology and engineering classes and effort to develop interpersonal skills.
And what are we doing in Alabama right now? Waiting for info that will give every school in the state a letter grade that in many cases is based primarily on test scores. And why? Because our legislature demands it.

Opinion | The enduring legacy of Margaret Thatcher
"In the winter of British discontent, Thatcher emerged to lead the minority Conservative Party into the majority."
Thirty years ago, this week, the longest-serving British prime minister of the 20th century resigned. Margaret Thatcher, having governed since 1979, saw her leadership challenged, but rather than continue to fight, she was gaslighted into believing she was losing her grip on her party and would lose her office in an embarrassing vote.
None of that was true.
In fact, the very men who rode to leadership positions on her coattails and hid behind her skirts during controversy allowed their greed for power to debase their loyalty to the Iron Lady. Dejected, she resigned and thus, quietly exited British politics.
Prior to Thatcher's leadership, Britain was in decline and, by all economic measures, sliding into second rate status. Rather than control its financial destiny, the International Monetary Fund was needed to help the Empire shore up her accounts. Socialism dominated with anti-capitalist trade unions and nationalized industries weighing down any real economic growth.
But in the winter of British discontent, Thatcher emerged to lead the minority Conservative Party into the majority. For more than a decade thereafter, she was the face of the party, and even when she left the scene, the imprint of "Thatcherism" would remain a dominate political ideology.
Thatcher's political program relied upon a simple appeal to the British sensibilities. She believed in limited government, liberty of the individual, and the rule of law. But rather than relying solely on rhetoric, she acted on her beliefs and ushered in a golden age that changed not only Britain, but the entire world. Indeed, the world she inherited in 1979 stood in stark contrast to the world in 1990. She caused the contrast.
Unlike many political leaders who espouse high minded principles, she pursued hers with what some considered reckless abandon. Thatcher took significant steps to push back the suffocating hand of state control and return the economy to a true free market. Government intervention was replaced with individual responsibility and human action.
There are five significant events revealing what Thatcher believed by how she acted. And the impact of her actions had ramifications that still affect both British and international politics.
Thatcher organized her government to firmly oppose state-sponsored terrorism and declined to allow the cloak of diplomatic immunity to cover subversive activities. When the Libyan Embassy in London was used to harbor snipers to shoot protestors and ended up killing British policewoman Yvonne Fletcher, the prime minister terminated diplomatic relations and used special forces to clear the embassy and send the terrorists masquerading as diplomats packing.
She would similarly send a large contingent of Russians home when it was clear their embassy was a cover for supporting domestic terrorists and spying on military and industrial targets. These actions rankled some in the diplomatic community who wanted her to be more deferential, but by sending a message of British resolve, she earned the respect of the world community.
Perhaps the one thing cementing Britain's return to power was the Falkland Island campaign. While it was only a small British outpost near Argentina, Thatcher recognized that the Argentine invasion was not simply a threat to the islanders but also a challenge to international British interests. Unwilling to concede anything, she ordered the unequivocal liberation of the islands and effectively threw down a marker that she would defend and protect British subjects and interests anywhere at any cost.
Accepting the Argentine invasion would have been the easy course, but while some in Britain were embarrassed at her saber-rattling and projection of military power, the vast majority saw her actions as patriotic and a reminder of the former greatness of the empire. After the Falkland's victory, Thatcher's popularity soared, and when a general election was called, she achieved a landslide victory establishing a conservative majority that lasted until 1997.
On the domestic front, Thatcher knew from the beginning of her administration that she had a dead reckoning with trade unionism, whose power had grown so strong and influential that strikes could paralyze the country. But rather than take them on directly, the wily strategist first worked to pass laws that prevented union corruption and inappropriate strikes.
Once those laws were in place, she realized that the first challenge would be with the coal miners' union. At that time, coal miners in Britain were a larger part of a socialist network that had grown in influence because coal was so critical to energy and the economy. But a minority of the unions were not part of this network and Thatcher allied herself with them, stockpiling coal to outlast the socialists.
So, when the coal miners decided to strike, she was prepared. First with lawsuits that prevented sympathy strikes from other unions by exacting fines and then with resources to close unprofitable mines and wait until the unions were unable to hold out. The coal miners were the first step, but gradually she reduced the unions' economic stranglehold and began to privatize state-owned industries, which made the British economy more dynamic and competitive.
With an established Church, the parameters for separation of church and state are not debated in Parliament. In fact, the prime minister was involved in approving ecclesiastical promotion. Unlike other politicians who rarely addressed religious issues directly, Thatcher had no such reticence. When she became alarmed at the liberal bent of the established Church, she found an opportunity to explain to the professional clergy exactly how she viewed their role in society.
Addressing the General Assembly of Scotland, she boldly stated, "Christianity is about spiritual redemption, not social reform." She chastised church leaders for failing to appreciate capitalism and the spiritual benefits it provided. It is hard to imagine a political leader who would have the intestinal fortitude to attend a denominational gathering, articulate a theology and take ministers to task for in essence failing in their mission.
Her speech, known derisively as "The Epistle to the Caledonians" is readily available on the internet. Some Sunday when virtual church is off, watch Thatcher explain her version of Christianity and see her sense of faith boldly defended and publicly exhibited.
Perhaps the one thing that both defined Thatcher and also led to her resignation was her idea of Britain's place in the European community. Her view of Europe was with an eye toward free trade and removing regulations and restrictions on the free flow of goods and services. She saw Europe not as a melting pot where states and people lose their currency and cultural identity, but, rather, as a mosaic where nations and people maintained their unique culture within a framework of collaboration centered on trade.
As the idea of a united Europe moved toward a common currency, democratic socialism and a heightened regulatory environment, Thatcher stood her ground and refused to participate. Her speech to the College of Europe at Bruges explained succinctly her concerns and her vision of developing a strong capitalist Europe. Like her speech to the Church of Scotland, this speech, too, is worth a listen as it is prescient considering the current status of Europe, Brexit and NATO.
Lady Thatcher's political demise was ushered in by disloyal cabinet members who were willing to subjugate British hegemony to an amalgamated Europe. Nothing they would say or do could detract from her legacy. In her retirement, as she traveled to the former Warsaw Pact countries, throngs of people venerated her as the force that helped liberate them from Soviet domination.
If Thatcher was not honored in her own country, the voices of the children freed from totalitarianism offered honor enough to the Iron Lady who held to her principles, saved her country from irrelevance, and ushered in a new world order based on liberty of the individual and the rule of law.

Opinion | Giving thanks and staying safe
"As we've learned to adjust our daily routines and activities throughout the course of this pandemic, we know this Thanksgiving will not look like those of the past."
Thanksgiving is a special holiday because it provides us an entire day each year to pause and give thanks for the many blessings we have received. Particularly amid a global pandemic, the stress and craziness of life often make it easy to lose sight of just how much we have to be thankful for.
Although this holiday season will look different for us all due to the current health pandemic, we must remember the countless ways in which we are blessed.
Whether you are gathering with loved ones or remaining in the comfort of your own home, I hope we all take time to celebrate gratitude — something we may not do enough of these days.
This year, it is especially important we remember those who have been impacted by the coronavirus. This horrific virus we continue to battle has stolen the lives of over 250,000 Americans and 3,400 Alabamians.
During this season of Thanksgiving, I hope you will join me in prayerfully remembering those who have lost a loved one to this virus as well as those who are suffering from it. My prayers are with those who are missing a family member or friend this holiday season.
As we've learned to adjust our daily routines and activities throughout the course of this pandemic, we know this Thanksgiving will not look like those of the past. Please be mindful of any safety measures and precautions that have been put in place to help protect your family and those around you.
The Alabama Department of Public Health released guidance that includes a list of low, moderate and high-risk activities in order to help Alabamians have a safer holiday season. ADPH suggests a few lower-risk activities such as having a small dinner with members of your household, preparing and safely delivering meals to family and neighbors who are at high-risk or hosting a virtual dinner with friends.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends hosting an outdoor gathering and limiting the number of guests.
While the road to recovery is not always easy, I am confident that we will get through this health crisis together, and we will be better because of it. The American people are resilient, and we will not let this virus knock us down.
In the spirit of the holiday, I want to take this opportunity to tell you that I am thankful for the responsibility to serve our state and country in the United States Congress.
I am honored to be in a position to make a difference on behalf of Alabama's 2nd District, so thank you for allowing me to serve you. From the Roby family to yours, we hope you have a happy and healthy Thanksgiving.

Opinion | 400 years later, the Pilgrim story is more relevant than ever
"I think that giving thanks for the land that we call home is especially important this year."
This Thanksgiving will be different from any other we have had in our lifetimes. This past year has been a struggle, as every single one of us has had their normal lives disrupted. Many of us have also lost friends and family as the Coronavirus has swept through our communities. To say 2020 has been a trying time would be an understatement.
This year has not been unlike that first year the Pilgrims spent after landing at Plymouth Rock; their crossing of the Atlantic, their year of loss and struggle and their ultimate triumph.
Four hundred years ago, a group of 102 passengers set sail from England on a ship known as the Mayflower. They left their homeland with eyes set on the New World, where hopes of religious freedom and entrepreneurial opportunities awaited. Today, four centuries later, the New World that these pilgrims found is now the greatest country in the world, the United States of America.
As we look forward to celebrating Thanksgiving in a few days with our loved ones, (as best we can under the current situation) I think that giving thanks for the land that we call home is especially important this year. With the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower landing, we can look back and admire those brave men and women who embarked on a dangerous journey across the Atlantic Ocean. Many of the passengers aboard that ship sought religious freedom that would only be possible here in the New World. That religious freedom they risked their lives for remains a value we treasure and must continue to defend today. Sadly, it's a freedom we too often take for granted each and every day.
And when rough weather forced the Mayflower to land in Massachusetts rather than Virginia, the seeds of democracy were sewn. It was the Mayflower Compact that gave way to the Pilgrims establishing a colony that created its own laws and abided by them. This incredible feat of getting consensus among a diverse group is what led to the first self-governing document in the New World. The Mayflower Compact established something that had never been done before but was soon to be replicated on a larger scale when the nation's Founding Father's put pen to parchment and drafted the Constitution.
It was the brave passengers of the Mayflower who started the tradition of a day of giving thanks in the year 1621. That first year, especially the winter of 1620-21 was harsh and deadly. Of the 102 original passengers, 45 died the first year. Many died from exposure to the cold, from diseases and from malnutrition. Four entire Mayflower families also died that first winter in Massachusetts.
But those who survived persevered. While it wasn't called Thanksgiving back then, it was a joyous celebration of the Pilgrims' first corn harvest that they invited nearby Native Americans to join. Some two hundred and forty years later, President Abraham Lincoln established Thanksgiving as a national holiday to be observed on the final Thursday of each November.
While we are still struggling through the season of COVID, we can look to those 102 brave souls from four centuries ago who also struggled. But they trusted that brighter days and the prospect of freedom were on the horizon. Not only that, but they looked to God for their guidance and thank him for bringing them to the place we are today.
So, on this Thanksgiving, while we still struggle, we can take comfort from those who came before us. We owe so much to the Pilgrims, as God put it in their hearts to travel to the New World. Furthermore, they set before us a spirit of Thanksgiving to the all-knowing God. And that is an example for us today, perhaps even more so than ever.

Opinion | Record voter turnout in Alabama shows need for voting legislation
"When Alabamians had reasonable and secure options to access the ballot, they exercised their right to vote in the highest numbers in state history."
More than 140 million voters took part in the historic 2020 election. Alabamians cast 2.3 million ballots, and cast absentee ballots in record numbers. More than 300,000 absentee votes were requested in-person or by mail.
Headlines have lauded the level of participation; however, we must be careful in allowing a narrative to capture a moment while erasing the history and evolution of voter suppression in this state and across the Deep South.
That is why now more than ever, we must expand voting in Alabama.
The full enfranchisement of voters based on race has only been in place for 55 years since the passing of the Voting Rights Act, but that has since been undermined with the Supreme Court's Shelby v. Holder decision, which removed federal oversight from state voting regulations and allowed for burdensome requirements like voter ID to become the standard.
Alabama, the very battleground for voting rights in this country, once again backslid and since then has remained even behind many of our neighbors as far as options for voting.
However, this year, when Alabama emerged as a hotspot for COVID-19, state leaders ensured voters would have more choices when casting their ballot this year by permitting use of the absentee and in-person absentee voting for all registered voters.
This opportunity energized voters, as we saw long lines outside of courthouses across Alabama, from Mobile and Montgomery to Birmingham and Tuscaloosa. Voter turnout exceeded 66 percent nationwide and 61 percent in the state.
When Alabamians had reasonable and secure options to access the ballot, they exercised their right to vote in the highest numbers in state history.
These numbers show that Alabama voters want more voting options prior to Election Day, and it is now up to lawmakers in this state to take a stance for the citizens of Alabama. In the upcoming legislative session, the Alabama legislature must ensure we make voting expansion a priority.
The right to the ballot box should not depend on signatory requirements or excuses to be able to vote safely by mail, as millions of Americans did this past election. Passing legislation can give working parents, caregivers, people with disabilities, and all voters more choices so that voting is made simple and accessible for all Alabamians.
This historic fight of Civil Rights activists in this very state sent a message to not only the rest of the U.S., but to the world, that democracy and the right to vote is one of our most powerful tools to make our voices heard.
This year, our collective voices have been resounding, and despite our circumstances — a global pandemic, an international social movement, and major political shifts that have impacted our families and our communities for decades to come — we ensured that our voices were heard at the ballot box.
Today, we must aim to be a shining example once again of democracy's promise and demonstrate that free, fair and accessible elections drive civic engagement at every level and give the people of Alabama the voice in our government that we deserve.

For the last eight years, I have worked at the British Museum, following a couple of years working for a German Investment Bank in the City of London. I'm responsible for the management of the Portable Antiquities Scheme's IT infrastructure and I provide advice to the British Museum on ICT issues when needed. The world of IT, is entirely self taught knowledge for me; at university I studied archaeology at undergraduate and post graduate levels, with a specific interest in maritime archaeology. It has been a sharp learning curve, and one that I think will always be challenging and disrupted by new technology. Of course, I'm open to offers to get back below the seas and excavate underwater again!
The department that I work for, the Portable Antiquities Scheme (and Treasure) is a DCMS funded project that records objects that have been found within the boundaries of England and Wales by members of the public. They voluntarily bring these objects forward to one of our 60 members of staff, who then record them on our database. You could say that this is at heart, public archaeology in action. This database now provides the basis for a massive amount of research within the university environment and it is very gratifying to see what people do with the database that I built. For example, the map below (produced in ArcView – I use QGIS at home) shows where coins of different periods are found by our contributors. Of course, I have to be very careful who has access to the full spatial co-ordinates, academics have to apply for access and I use some maths to obfuscate points on a map.
I've also been heavily involved with the #dayofarch project alongside friends and colleagues (we're calling ourselves"Digital Archaeologists" ). The team working on this project were Matt Law and Lorna Richardson who came up with the plan, Tom Goskar, Jess Ogden, Stu Eve and Andy Dufton). I provided the project with server space, Google analytics, installation of the software and configuration of the software with Tom Goskar. The project has been amazing to work on, and we'll hopefully be writing this up and getting a chapter on it into Lorna's PhD.
My day is pretty varied and is either filled with writing funding bids, writing papers (CASPAR workshop papers on Archaeology on TV and Museums and Twitter at the moment), refactoring or writing new code, creating maps in various GIS packages, manipulating images (by script and hand), meetings with academics, TV people or colleagues. It is extremely different to my previous job, and it is probably why I've stuck with the role for such a long period. The database that I run, has been written from scratch and I'm currently transferring all my code to GitHub so that others can make use of my work. All the software that I either use or build has to be open-source. I have a very small budget for my IT work – £4000 per annum; is this the smallest budget for a National IT programme ever? I use products from Vanilla for our staff forum, from WordPress for our blogs and various framework packages like Zend Framework for our main website and database. As such, I spent only £48 on the site's rebuild, the rest goes on server hosting and backup! At the moment, I am also working on a variety of funding proposals, a couple of JISC bids and I'm also looking for funding for the Video-Conferencing workshop that Elizabeth Warry refers to in her post. This is based around the discovery of the Frome hoard and forms the basis for her Masters' dissertation that I'm supervising with Tim Schadla-Hall. Other people working on this include the British Museum's education team and members of the Treasure Team. I'm also on various academic advisory boards, an honorary lecturer at UCL (currently helping to supervise Lorna Richardson's PhD) and a Trustee of the Palestine Exploration Fund, a scholarly society based in Marylebone that has a wonderful collection of artefacts, maps and photos, and I'm currently involved in helping with a research bid for high resolution imagery of fragile documents which involves a wide array of partners.
Currently we have records for over 720,000 objects which have been contributed by over 19,000 people in a 14 year time span. We get around 60,000 visitors per month to our site and around 3-10,000 objects recorded; the time of year has a great effect on this – harvest and seasons especially impact. The site was awarded 'Best of the Web' as a research tool or online collection at this year's Museums and the Web conference in Philadelphia. Something I'm extremely proud of for all our staff and contributors. All of these records are released under a Creative Commons NC-BY-SA licence and we've had considerable success with a variety of digital projects. High profile finds that come up generate a huge amount of interest, and I've been trying to get suitable images for the Wikipedia community. We're finding our relationship with them very beneficial and we now have lots of images in the Wikicommons.
With my wife, Katharine Kelland, I built the Staffordshire Hoard's first website in 12 hours, and this was viewed by 1/4 million people in one day when we launched. I now use this model as a way for publicising other significant archaeological discoveries. I'm very lucky to work in the British Museum, I never thought I'd end up working there and you never tire of walking through the main gates and up the stairs to the Great Court. In the last few years I've been privileged to have seen amazing discoveries close up – the Hackney hoard, the Moorlands patera, the Staffordshire Hoard, the Frome Hoard, the Wheathampstead hoard, and the list goes on. I've even got to dress up as a gladiator and parade around the Great Court. Where else could you do this?

Fidra Island
When I played at Yellowcraig as a child, I had no idea that I was following in the footsteps of one of my favourite authors, Robert Louis Stevenson. Like me, Stevenson used to holiday in East Lothian, playing on the same beaches and picking up inspiration from his surroundings. Stevenson formed the foundations of one of his most famous stories, Treasure Island after several visits to the Island of Fidra, which can be seen from the coast of Dirleton. It has been claimed that the map of Treasure Island was modelled on Fidra, which sits in the Firth of Forth, approximately two and a half miles west of the seaside town, North Berwick. Stevenson's visits to the island were around the time the Lighthouse was being constructed in the 1880's. RCAHMS' archive holds the original plans which are signed by Stevenson's father, Thomas and cousin, David who were the engineers responsible for the construction.
One of several islands on the Forth dubbed 'The Little Jewels', from the coast, Fidra Island looks nothing more than a lump of rock in the middle of the sea with a lighthouse that is still used to this day. However; after looking through some of the Ordnance Survey Name Books on Scotland's Places I discovered that this little island offers a lot more than first meets the eye. In around 1165, a chapel was built on the island and dedicated to St. Nicholas, and frequented by monks from Dryburgh Abbey, as well as the Cistercian nuns from the local Convent at North Berwick, who used to make pilgrimages to the Chapel. The Chapel was also possibly used as a quarantine hospital for sick sailors, and for people suffering plague; however it now sits in a state of ruin with only one wall remaining. There is also part of a railway, which I found particularly fascinating considering it's a fairly small island. What the railway would have been used for I cannot say, as very few records seem to be available. Fidra is also home to Castle Tarbet, a pillar reaching 40 feet from the sea, with sheer drops on three sides. It's little wonder that Robert Louis Stevenson found the island so intriguing and inspiring enough to influence his work, or perhaps it was just a tribute to his family who constructed lighthouse so iconic of the island today.
This is what I've chosen for Day of Archaeology, but why not tell us your favourite archaeological sites in Scotland on Twitter using #MyArchaeology.

Want to Learn More About Bathroom Flooring? We've got you covered…
Bathroom flooring comes in an almost limitless variety of colors, materials and styles. Bathrooms tend to be small, intimate areas, so the flooring you choose can play a big role in the overall feel of the room. Light, reflective floors create a feeling of spaciousness, while dark, textured floors have a heavy, austere quality.
The most popular types of bathroom flooring are vinyl and ceramic tile, though that shouldn't stop you from considering laminate, engineered hardwood and even hardwood flooring (usually in half-baths or powder rooms.) Your choice will depend on a variety of factors, including your home's décor and how much floor maintenance you want to do.
You'll probably be barefoot in your bathroom, so you'll also want to consider some measure of slip resistance. Many vinyl and ceramic flooring options come with textured surfaces to prevent falls. If you enjoy the look of ceramic tile but worry it will be too slick, consider using smaller tiles. The grout between each tile will provide a non-skid surface.
With so many options in bathroom flooring, it can be tough to choose the right one for your home in Madeira. Let the experts at Floor Coverings International help. Call or click to schedule a free in-home consultation today – (513) 729-7499
