Providence College receives Dreyfus Award

The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry is led by Dr. Seann Mulcahy and Dr. Kathleen Comely.

PC is the first college in Rhode Island to receive the award.

The Award

The $18,500 grant provides funding to bring a researcher to campus to give at least two lectures in the chemical sciences, and to interact with faculty and undergraduate students.

One of the lectures will be accessible and promoted to a wide audience that includes the general public, while the other lectures will be more technical and/or specific.

The grant will also fund two summer undergraduate research students selected from the pool of rising sophomore, junior, or senior chemistry/biochemistry majors.

Dreyfus Foundation

The Dreyfus Foundation is dedicated to the advancement of the chemical sciences as a means of improving human relations and circumstances throughout the world.

The Jean Dreyfus Lectureship award is made to only four to six chemistry departments per year across the US, and is viewed as extremely competitive among the chemistry community.

What if someone could figure out when, where and why traffic accidents occur and stop them from happening? Someone has.

Since the dawn of the automobile age, traffic accidents have been widely accepted as a tragicbut inevitableside effect of modern life. Thanks to mobile phones, the problem is getting worse, not better. Traffic fatalities are creeping up again after decades of decline. More than 40,000 Americans were killed in car accidents in 2016, a 14 percent rise since 2014, according to the National Safety Council. Thats the biggest two-year surge in five decades.

Despite the severe toll, there has been a curious lack of urgency from the public and policymakers to do something about it. Officials attempting to address the problemtraffic engineers, police officers, policymakers, public health specialistsare working with information gathered after the fatalities and injuries have already occurred, often without reliable data, resources, or much political support.

A global movement called Vision Zero takes a radically different approach. Its premise is that traffic deaths and severe injuries are all preventable and sets the goal of eliminating both in a set time frame with clear, measurable strategies. Launched in Sweden two decades ago and widely adopted in many European cities, the Vision Zero approach has finally taken off in American cities.

Ten early adopter U.S. cities have joined the new Vision Zero Focus Cities program, launched by the Vision Zero Network. The ten cities are Austin, Boston. Chicago, Fort Lauderdale, Los Angles, New York, Portland, San Francisco, Seattle and Washington, D.C.

For a number of years, vehicle fleet managers, insurance companies and others have used a combination of On Board Diagnostic devices and GPS technology devicesmounted on each vehicle to pinpoint the location of their vehicles in near real time. The ODB enabled locator can also access vehicle diagnostic interface data, track speed and location, as well as detect hard braking, cornering, acceleration and capture pre and post-impact data.

What OCDs are not good at is analyzing driver behavior which, as it happens, is the most important factor of all in predicting and preventing crashes before they happen. Some 93% of collisions on the road are due to human error. One in four crashes is the result of phone use while driving.

In 2013, Jonathan Matus, who helped turn Googles Android into the worlds dominant mobile software and later led the launch of Facebooks mobile platform, teamed up with another Google engineer, Pankaj Risbood to found Zendrive, a tech company that uses sensors in smartphones to capture, analyze and then coach a driver on what they can do to be safer while behind the wheel.

Phones enabled with the Zendrives technology can relay data not only about when drivers are looking at their phones, but also how fast theyre driving at any given moment, or if they make hard turns at intersections. It detects collisions, aggressive driving, distracted driving, and more, including whether youve recently stopped at a pub.

In its short existence, Zendrive has collected and analyzed 15 billion miles of anonymized driving data. Progressive, a leader in insurance telematics, took nearly two decades to reach the same number of miles analyzed.

Largest Distracted Driver Survey

In April, Zendrive released the results of a three-month analysis of three-million anonymous U.S. drivers, making up 570-million trips and covering 5.6 billion miles. The key findings were both astounding and alarming:

In an interview with Forbes, CEO Jonathan Matus said: We were surprised to find that this risky behavior is so common. Almost 9 out of 10 car trips have some form of distracting phone use. This is truly an epidemic. It is more widespread than most people realize, and it parallels an overall trend: the number of crashes and fatalities on the road is growing at double-digit rate for the past few years. This is something we cannot ignore.

Vision Zero, Zendrive and New York City

Zendrive is working closely with New York City in its Vision Zero goal which aims to eliminate traffic deaths and serious injuries in New York City by 2024. In partnership with New York Universitys Tandon School of Engineering, Zendrive is using its 15-billion miles of data for predictive analytics to determine where collisions are likely to occur before they happen. (PDF)

NYU analyzed and mapped 33,450 risky driving events collected by Zendrive between July and December 2015 and 127,423 collisions reported by the NYPD between July 2012 and March 2017. During those four-plus years, over 1,200 people were killed in traffic on New York City streets.

By analyzing and mapping the data, NYU researchers found mappable correlations between driver behavior data and NYPD crash data. No real surprise here but they determined that the areas where people drive recklessly are the same areas where there are collisions. This means that it is possiblewith the right mix of interventionsto stop reckless driving before it causes collisions, injuries and deaths.

They mapped the two datasets and compared the locations and density of the events in each category. Among the useful correlations:

You cant ignore the irony that a company founded by a guy who has done as much as anyone to make mobile phones ubiquitous is now using them to save lives, but Zendrive is one of those companies that arrived in the right place with the right product at exactly the right moment.

Although OBD data collected directly from the vehicles computer is marginally more accurate in measuring the vehicles performance, it is fairly oblivious to reckless human behavior by drivers and, in the end, that is the cause of most accidents and what Zendrive measures best.

Driven in large part by young bicyclists and runners who want to claim their share of the road from dangerous automobiles, public safety initiatives like Vision Zero are becoming more visible and more popular. As with campaigns to reduce drunk driving and initiatives to increase recycling, changing cultural attitudes and ensuring political and individual accountability can make a dramatic difference.

Zendrive provides real-time big data that allows city planners to focus on mitigating the most dangerous behaviors before they result in fatalities and injuries.

And, of course, theres the companys technology bloodlines. If Zendrive were a race horse, Id put down a couple of bucks.

My president? Yes. My leader? No. – Minneapolis Star Tribune

Last week, a retired military commander took over as the White House chief of staff, stepping into a team environment that has been widely described as chaotic. Will Gen. John Kelly make a difference? What weve learned about leadership in my field of firefighting reveals why we must hope so.

On July 6, 1994, 14 wildland firefighters were entrapped by fire and killed in Colorado. The incident rocked the fire service, and the following year the U.S. Forest Service convened the Human Factors Workshop in Missoula, Mont. The aim was summed up by a newspaper headline: After 80 Years of Studying Fire, the Forest Service is Studying Firefighters. It wasnt about pumps, hose or fire behavior, but an evaluation of human behavior. Why do people act (or fail to act) the way they do during stressful, high-tempo operations?

The findings of the workshop spurred the creation of a suite of intense leadership courses for the wildland fire agencies, and a renewed emphasis on risk-management and communication skills. Theres an ongoing effort to institutionalize the practice of effective techniques.

For the past decade, Ive been a leadership instructor/facilitator for both rookies and emergency-service veterans. We draw on experience and wisdom from the military, the business community, the political sphere and social-sciences disciplines.

The courses have been well-received and transformative. At the end of one two-day session that involved heavy use of simulations and tactical decisionmaking games, one student approached me with a telling comment: Well, this is just about life, isnt it?

Exactly. Though we focus on wildland fire and emergency operations, the principles apply across the board.

We talk about power and the different forms in which it manifests. For example, there is position power you hold a job and a title that automatically confer authority. In the fire world, that would be an incident commander or a division supervisor; in the corporate domain, chief executive officer or chairman of the board. Perhaps the highest level of position power in the world is president of the United States.

I frequently find myself analyzing the leadership skills of those with position power. So when Donald Trump became president, I focused on him. The following assessment has nothing to do with political views yours, mine or Trumps. His opinions on immigration, climate change, taxes, health care, etc., are irrelevant to this discussion.

A few years ago, I jotted down the basic tenets of what the fire service considers effective and trustworthy leadership the traits that get the work done without placing people in unacceptably hazardous situations. Judge for yourself which of these is exhibited by President Trump. In no particular order, a leader must:

Recognize that a leader is a servant who holds the welfare of followers as first priority.

Delegate as much as you reasonably can; trust, but verify. Remember you can delegate authority but not responsibility. You share the credit and the blame.

Praise in public; criticize in private.

Admit and own your mistakes; apologize, correct the error and move on.

Seek the input of subordinates and superiors and follow it whenever you can. When their ideas and your ideas are equally legitimate, go with theirs and give them credit.

Follow administrative rules yourself, but make allowances for your people when its justified; do the right thing, even if it bends a rule.

Avoid arrogance in word, deed and demeanor.

Do not mourn failure more is learned from a debacle than from a triumph.

Celebrate the success of your team, but keep your contribution understated. A leader never finally succeeds, but only progresses. You are not done learning and honing your skills until you are retired or dead.

Be honest.

Control your anger. Its natural to be angry, but express it in measured tone and action.

Practice leaders intent task, purpose, end state. Give your team the task (heres what needs to be done); the purpose (heres why it needs to be done) and the end state (heres what success looks like). Then get out of their way. Do not micromanage.

Talk maintain a flow of accurate information up and down the chain of command.

Know yourself. Understand your strengths and capitalize on them; recognize your limitations and find means to mitigate them, usually via the aid of others. Be aware of your personal stress reactions and make them known to your team.

Employ recognition-primed decisionmaking (RPD). Under time pressure, you will make your decisions intuitively, grounded in experience of similar situations.

Cultivate mindfulness. Attention and focus are essential to maintaining effective situation awareness, and therefore to the practice of all of the above.

Made your judgment? As I review that summary, it is my opinion that Trump is lacking in almost every category. He is arrogant, self-serving, dishonest and reckless, and he regularly claims undue credit while shedding any blame. Hes a bully and a narcissist.

I would not trust Donald Trump as a fireground leader. I do not trust him as president. Yet he was fairly elected last November and is, by definition, my president and yours. To claim otherwise is fatuous and unhelpful. Ironically, Trump is one of the few who thought the election was rigged those pesky 3 million voters who cost him the popular vote majority. He claimed without evidence that they were illegal voters, another telling clue to his character.

But though he is my president, that doesnt mean I must follow him.

During one of our leadership courses, we ask students: Why should anyone follow you? The point is that position power alone is not enough to ensure leadership. The best way to lead is to create an environment where people want to follow, as opposed to being compelled to. Leadership is exerting influence, and the best way to influence is by establishing trust. For me, and many millions of others, Trump has utterly failed in that.

There are those who believe (or hope) he will grow into the job. I expressed that hope in these pages last November, but it has evaporated. I doubt he will rise to the challenge.

As the great boxing champion Muhammad Ali noted: The fight is won or lost far away from the witnesses in the gym, and out there on the road, long before I dance under those lights.

Trumps character was formed, and fixed, long ago. He certainly didnt wear a mask or a muzzle during the election campaign what we saw was what we got. Why would he change an approach or a persona that got him elected to the presidency? He is convinced of his prowess and infallibility. Trump is now commander-in-chief of the most powerful military in the world, the occupant of the highest bully pulpit, and is surrounded by so far as I can tell a Cabinet of advisers who are more like him than not. Some are his relatives. To students of history, that sounds an alarm.

This is the type of executive branch the framers of the U.S. Constitution had in mind when they devised the checks and balances. When Trump admitted that being president was harder than he thought it would be, constitutional resistance probably played a role. If we are fortunate, the worst damage Trump does will be to the notion that celebrity, notoriety and financial ruthlessness qualify you for high office. But I suspect it will be messier and more painful than that.

One of the finest leaders to wield the awesome position power of the president of the United States was Dwight D. Eisenhower. He exhibited almost all of the traits listed above a signal and mature achievement. He said, You do not lead by hitting people over the head. Thats assault, not leadership.

Perhaps Gen. Kelly can get that across to his boss?

I take some comfort in Trumps low public-approval rating. As another skilled leader, Abraham Lincoln, noted in his first inaugural address: While the people retain their virtue and vigilance, no administration, by any extreme of weakness or folly, can very seriously injure the government in the short span of four years.

I hope our virtue and vigilance prevail. And I hope Lincoln was right.

Peter M. Leschak, of Side Lake, Minn., is a 36-year fire service veteran, both wildland and municipal, and author of Ghosts of the Fireground and other books. The opinions expressed here are solely his own.

Hey, Idaho! Let’s steal Washington’s driving-under-the-influence-of-electronics law – Idaho Statesman

For a dissenting view from one of our editorial board members, see below.

Our neighbors to the northwest are trying something that we can watch and learn from and then take for our own use.

Washington states new law covering driving under the influence of electronics took effect July 23. Drivers face a $136 fine for a first offense $234 for additional offenses within five years if they are seen holding or using a handheld device or watching a video while driving.

The law permits drivers the minimal use of a finger to activate an app for a device in a cradle or built into the car what one Washingtonian we know described as the one-swipe rule.

Will Washingtons new law work? Is it enough? Is it too much? Were about to find out. And thats good for Idaho, which took a good step in 2012 to ban texting while driving. But technology and human behavior have evolved, and our gadgets have proliferated. Idaho law needs to keep pace.

We dont think Washington has it all figured out, but we like the experiment unfolding there. Doing nothing as the plague of distracted driving swells is not a good option.

According to The Seattle Times, 156 of that states 537 roadway deaths in 2016 were blamed on distractions of all kinds. In Idaho in 2014, more than one in five fatalities involved a distracted driver, although the Idaho data arent broken down by distraction. Cellphone use and abuse is notoriously hard to track or to get people to be honest about. But we do know this: After seeing serious crashes and fatalities decrease per miles traveled in Idaho from 2010 to 2014, both are now ticking up.

So, Idaho legislators, lets do this when you convene in 2018: Hold a hearing. Invite Washingtons state patrol and other experts to come tell us how its going. Ask Idahos best state police and Department of Transportation brains to weigh in with their expertise and recommendations. Lets get the best Idaho data and look at Idaho tweaks. Then ask citizens.

Is the Washington approach best? Should Idaho instead make electronics an aggravating factor your penalty multiplies if you are involved in an accident or other offense while driving under the influence of electronics? Is one swipe enough? Too much?

Should we keep Idahos existing exemption for texting at a stoplight? We think its a reasonable provision and one that Washingtons new law doesnt permit.

Each of us can quibble and suggest how wed like to see the law shaped. So lets do that. And then lets put the toughest, smartest bill we can into law.

Its well established that our right to absolute freedom ends at the steering wheel. And no driver is free to be careless with the lives of other people on the road.

Yet we drivers dont recognize how our own habits put others at risk. If you have any doubt, sit at any parking lot exit and watch drivers zip past with phones glued to ears or fingers tapping away. Add the phone to the already busy, distracted driving world in which we eat, drink, brush hair, apply makeup or change clothes, and were multiplying our chances for bad outcomes.

One of these days, technology will be so good and so smooth that many of these issues will be moot. Your car will call home, order dinner, turn on Netflix and schedule your massage. Fumbling with a smart phone will be a quaint memory, like setting the stylus on the phonograph or getting up to change the TV channel.

But thats not today. We need to make setting the phone aside as common and as accepted as fastening our seat belts or buckling the kids into the car seats. To do that, lets crib from Washington state.

Talk about a slippery slope: You cant legislate away distracted driving

I closely follow the happenings in my home state, but the absurdity of Washingtons far-reaching legislative approach to the distracted driving issue is dumbfounding to me.

Since reading up on this issue, Ive taken special note of what distracts me while driving, and two of my main distractions are not addressed: dancing to awesome tunes and balking at strange behavior in the park. My point is that humans are given to distraction, and legislating down to the finger swipe is overreaching and restrictive to individual freedoms without accomplishing the underlying goal of curtailing distracted driving.

In terms of the slippery slope argument, Washington is on a 36-degree incline and in the process of applying a second coat of WD-40.

It is more effective and very possible to influence behavior without excessive legislation. Just look at the decline of cigarette use over the past 50 years. This was accomplished through a combination of incentives and strategic penalties in various areas of popular culture, not through outlawing tobacco.

Is distracted driving a problem? Yes. Does the solution rest in more legislation? In my opinion, emphatically no.

Corcoran’s John Muir Middle School is joining the space program – Hanford Sentinel

CORCORAN The students and staff of John Muir Middle School have been selected to be part of the Student Spaceflight Experiments Program (SSEP) Mission 12 to the International Space Station.

The school will be joining approximately two dozen other schools from Canada and the United States to be part of Mission 12 with their space experiment going on the spacecraft.

I am so excited to bring this to our kids, said Principal Dave Whitmore. It is an unbelievable opportunity. How many people get the chance to design an experiment that goes into space?

Dr. Jeff Goldstein, Director of National Center for Earth and Space Science Education, says that the program inspires critical thinking and problem solving. Students experiments take place on earth and in space in order to compare gravity versus non-gravity results.

By giving the students an actual context to apply what they are learning, we believe that the students may start to make connections that we have not been able to get them to make without an actual context in the past, stated John Muir staff in the application. Participation in the SSEP would allow our students to practice higher order thinking skills while using and practicing the scientific method. While in teams, students will design a formal plan using higher order thinking skills, research skills and then write it up using technical writing skills.

The entire John Muir staff and all students will be participating. First up will be getting students excited about space and real-life expectations through a schoolwide contest to design the mission patch with the winner picked out by a panel.

Science teachers will begin the year with a focus on understanding and using the scientific method, as well as the importance of technical writing.

Lessons will then expand to address the physics, challenges and applications of microgravity, as well as analysis and practice with more specific technical writing. Agriculture scientists from throughout the area, as well as the Kings County Office of Education, will be solicited to help. The $24,000 cost of the project will be paid for by Title 1 funds.

This is a huge honor and opportunity for our middle school students and community, said Superintendent Rich Merlo. The school is among less than 30 communities in North America to be involved in real experiments in real space flight. Congratulations to our leadership and faculty for being selected to create such a powerful, real life, exciting learning environment for Corcoran students.

The program is open to schools and school districts serving grades 5-12, as well as two- and four-year colleges and universities, informal science education organizations and internationally through the National Center for Earth and Space Science Education and the Arthur C. Clarke Institute for Space Education.

Student teams are able to design experiments across fields, including: seed germination, crystal growth, physiology and life cycles of microorganisms, cell biology and growth, food studies and studies of micro-aquatic life. Experiments require design to the technology and engineering constraints imposed by the mini-laboratory and flight operations to and from low Earth orbit.

Neuroscience 2017 on Biteable.

It is our pleasure to invite you to the 17thGlobalNeuroscienceConference will be held during October 16-17, 2017 Osaka, Japan. The main theme of our conference is "NeuroscienceAcross the Lifespan, Amelioration ofNeuroscience" which covers wide range of critically important sessions

Around 1 billion people, nearly one in six of the worlds population, suffer from neurological disorders, from Alzheimer and Parkinson disease, strokes,multiple sclerosisand epilepsy tomigraine, brain injuries and neuro-infections.

The World Health Organization estimated thatneurological disordersaffect up to one billion people worldwide. In fact, neurological diseases make up 11 percent of the worlds disease burden, not including mental health and addiction disorders.

Track 1: Neurology

Neurology might be characterized as the finding and treatment of scatters of the sensory system, which incorporates the cerebrum and spinal rope. The market examination of neurology addresses the biggest and undiscovered market in prescription area. This assessed showcase investigation is relies upon likelihood of endorsement and offers of items in late stage change, statistic patterns and advancing of item. Rising and creating markets at the end of the day helps incomes. CNS therapeutics includes approximately 15% of total pharmaceutical arrangements, about $30 billion around the globe.

Track 2: Neurons

A neuron is a nerve cell that is the fundamental building square of the sensory system. Neurons are like different cells in the human body in various routes, yet there is one key distinction amongst neurons and different cells. Neurons are specific to transmit data all through the body. These exceedingly particular nerve cells are in charge of conveying data in both compound and electrical structures. There are additionally a few distinct sorts of neurons in charge of various errands in the human body. Tactile neurons convey data from the tangible receptor cells all through the body to the cerebrum. Engine neurons transmit data from the mind to the muscles of the body. Interneurons are in charge of conveying data between various neurons in the body.

Track 3: Neurological disorders

A neurological issue is any turmoil of the sensory system. Basic, biochemical or electrical irregularities in the mind, spinal line or different nerves can bring about a scope of manifestations. Cases of manifestations incorporate loss of motion, muscle shortcoming, poor coordination, and loss of sensation, seizures, perplexity, torment and adjusted levels of cognizance. There are more than 600 neurologic infections. Some of the time they can come about because of biochemical causes also. The pervasiveness rates of the range of neurological issue from various locales of the nation extended from 967-4,070 with a mean of 2394 for each 100000 populaces, giving an unpleasant gauge of more than 30 million individuals with neurological issue (barring neuroinfections and traumatic wounds). Commonness and rate rates of normal issue including epilepsy, neurology, Parkinson's ailment and tremors decided through populace based studies indicate extensive variety crosswise over various districts of the nation. The requirement for an institutionalized screening poll, uniform philosophy for case ascertainment and determination is a fundamental essential for creating strong national information on neurological issue. Higher rates of pervasiveness of neurological issue in provincial ranges, 6-8 million individuals with epilepsy and high case casualty rates of neurology (27-42%) call for pressing procedures to set up effort neurology administrations to take into account remote and country regions, create National Epilepsy Control Program and set up neurology units at various levels of social insurance pyramid.

Track 4: Central Nervous System

CNS disorders can affect either the brain or the spinal cord which results in psychiatric disorders or neurological disorders. The causes of CNS diseases are neurology, trauma, autoimmune disorders, infections, structural defects, degeneration and tumours. So here we focus on mood disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, schizophrenia and autism. Meningitis is a relatively rare infection that affects the delicate membranes called meninges that cover the brain and spinal cord. Encephalitis is the inflammation of the brain which is caused by infection or allergic reactions.

Track 6: Neuro-Degenerative Disorders

Neurons are the building pieces of the sensory system which incorporates the cerebrum and spinal string. Neurons typically don't imitate or supplant themselves, so when they get to be distinctly harmed or bite the dust they can't be supplanted by the body. Neurodegeneration is the umbrella term for the dynamic loss of structure or capacity of neurons, including demise of neurons. Numerous neurodegenerative ailments including amyotrophic parallel sclerosis, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and Huntington's happen as an aftereffect of neurodegenerative procedures. Dementias are in charge of the best weight of sickness with Alzheimer's speaking to around 60-70% of cases.

Track 7: Pediatric Neurology

Pediatric neurology is a neurology that happens in youngsters or teenagers. Neurology influences around 6 in 100,000 youngsters. Neurology in kids are of three essential sorts. Two are ischemic neurology in which blockage of veins results in absence of blood stream and harm. At the point when a corridor is obstructed, the term blood vessel ischemic neurology (AIS) is utilized. At the point when a vein is obstructed, the term utilized is cerebral Sino venous thrombosis (CSVT). In the third shape, haemorrhagic neurology (HS), the vein breaks as opposed to being blocked. The most well-known signs and side effects of neurology incorporate the sudden appearance of Weakness or deadness of the face, arm or leg, more often than not on one side of the body; Trouble strolling because of shortcoming or inconvenience moving one side of the body, or because of loss of coordination; Problems talking or comprehension dialect, including slurred discourse, inconvenience attempting to talk, failure to talk by any means, or trouble in comprehension straightforward bearings; Severe cerebral pain particularly with regurgitating and languor; Trouble seeing plainly in one or both eyes; Severe unsteadiness or loss of coordination that may prompt to losing equalization or falling; New appearance of seizures, particularly if influencing one side of the body and took after by loss of motion in favour of the seizure movement.

Track 9: Neuro Oncology

Essential cerebrum tumors can be either harmful (contain growth cells) or considerate (don't contain disease cells). An essential mind tumor is a tumor which starts in the cerebrum. In the event that a destructive tumor which begins somewhere else in the body sends cells which wind up developing in the cerebrum, such tumors are then called optional or metastatic mind tumors. This talk is centered around essential cerebrum tumors. Mind tumors can happen at any age. The correct reason for cerebrum tumors is not clear. The manifestations of cerebrum tumors rely on upon their size, sort, and area. The most widely recognized side effects of mind tumors incorporate cerebral pains; deadness or shivering in the arms or legs; seizures, memory issues; state of mind and identity changes; adjust and strolling issues; sickness and regurgitating; changes in discourse, vision, or hearing.

Track 11: Dementia

Dementia is not a single disease in itself, but a general term to describe symptoms of impairment in memory, communication, and thinking. While the likelihood of having dementia increases with age, it is not a normal part of aging. Light cognitive impairments, such as poorer short-term memory, can happen as a normal part of aging. This is known as age-related cognitive decline rather than dementia because it does not cause significant problems. Dementia describes two or more types of symptom that are severe enough to affect daily activities. An analysis of the most recent census estimates that 4.7 million people aged 65 years or older in the United States were living with Alzheimer's disease in 2010 Japan is facing a worsening health crisis where more of its aging population is expected to be diagnosed with dementia over the next several years. The AFP news agency is reporting that, by 2025, around 7.3 million Japanese residents, or 20 percent of seniors over the age of 65, will suffer from dementia based on figures from the health ministry. The current number of people with the disorder is estimated to be at least 4.6 million nationally and 44 million globally.

‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Recasts Owen’s Sister for Season 14 – Variety

Greys Anatomy has cast Abigail Spencer in Season 14,Variety has learned.

The Rectify alum will play Owens sister, Megan Hunt, as the role previously portrayed by Bridget Regan has been re-cast due to scheduling conflicts.

Owens sister has been mentioned numerous times throughout the course of Greys Anatomy and the character finally made her first appearance last season with Regan playing the part in one episode. Regan is busy on TNTs The Last Ship, in which she coincidentally stars opposite Greys alum Eric Dance.

Theres no word yet on how many episodes Spencer will appear in, but ABC says the recurring role will be a multi-episode arc. Owens sister is expected to have a larger storyline this season. The character was presumed to be dead after having gone missing in the army, and now that shes alive, shell be back, but not without conflict Megans former love is Dr. Nathan Riggs (Martin Henderson) who cheated on her, and now Nathan is romantically involved with Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) so Owen (Kevin McKidd) will have tricky dynamics to navigate in the upcoming season, which premieres on Sept. 28.

As for Spencer, the actress is gearing up for Season 2 of NBCs Timeless. The drama was notoriously canceled and then un-canceled, and Spencer will be back to star in the second season so its safe to assume that Megan Hunts storyline wont betoosignificant, given Spencers time commitment to the NBC series.

Spencer is repped byWME, Untitled, and Attorney Gretchen Rush.

CFL Insights: The anatomy of a comeback – CFL.ca

TORONTO When the Als took a 40-28 lead over the Bombers with 1:40 left in Week 6, some fans headed towards the gates at Winnipegs Investors Group Field. Of course, in many football stadiums across North American, a two-score deficit that late in the contest spells the end.

But theres a reason we often hear no lead is safe in the Canadian Football League and last week, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers took that saying to heart.

Thats one of the things we should learn from this, Head Coach Mike OShea said following one of the most dramatic comebacks in recent memory. One of the many.

The Alouettes appeared to have the game wrapped up when they rushed for six more points to take a 12-point lead. Thats the last time the Als offence would take the field however, as the Bombers quickly answered with a touchdown, recovered an onside kick and then scored with no time on the clock.

The CFL is fantastic in that way, OShea would add of the improbable comeback. Its hard to watch football when theyre walking off the field with lots of time left on the clock. This game is perfect because of that the ability to score two touchdowns in 1:40. Its a phenomenal game.

From a statistical standpoint, Winnipegs late comeback was one of themost stunning in CFL history because it combined three key elements: the Bombers trailed by 10 or more points; it happened entirely in the final 3:00 of the game; and finally, it was completed on the games final offensive play.

The closest parallel to last weeks comeback dates back to Oct. 17, 1999 when the Bombers also defeated Montreal after trailing by 10 and cutting the deficit to a single score with just 0:59 left. In that game, Winnipeg won 32-29 on Deland McCulloughs final-play one-yard touchdown run.

Finally, the victory was the fifth since 2005 that resulted from a touchdown on the games final play. Andrew Harris one-yard rumble puts him in elusive territory, joining Milt Stegall, Dahrran Diedrick, Nic Grigsby and Dava Stala as players to accomplish such a feat since then.

Here are the specific comebacks in CFL history over the 25 years since 1992 where clubs trailed by 10 or more points late and won:

‘Saving Hope’ blew everything up in a very ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ series finale – The Loop (blog)

If youre a fan of happy endings, you were probably pretty upset after watching Thursday nights series finale of Saving Hope. We know we were, when the storyline took a Greys Anatomy-like twist that rocked our world just as hard as when Meredith had to pull the plug on Derek.

But lets back up a second, shall we?

After five seasons, Alex and Charlie finally realized that they were meant to be together. So they pulled a shotgun wedding at the hospital, then took off with Luke to embark on a vacation and eventual honeymoon. Paris and Balithose dreamlikedestinations of romance and sunwere on the table for these crazy kids, because for the first time in the entire history of the series they were able to actually sit back and be happy together.

And then it all blew up.

A massive accident meant that ambulances couldnt make it to Hope Zion, so Zach called the newlyweds and asked them to head over tothe crash tohelp in the meantime. So they did what any good doctors would do and lent a hand, earning themselves superhero monikers by those they saved on scene. Sadly, just when they had finished helping the last people and were ready to get back on the road themselves, the show borrowed a page from Greys Anatomyand their car was t-boned by an oncoming vehicle. Back to the hospital for this family.

The rest of the episode quickly became an epic tearfest for the ages. Alex and the unborn baby were okay, but Luke was in surgery and Charlie had a severe brain bleed that wasnt looking promising. Unlike the last time he was in this situation the doctors couldnt find any sign of brain activity, which was obviously not good.

That didnt mean spirit Charlie wasnt around, but this time there was a twist. He was transported into the future, where he saw that his daughter Charlotte had become an ortheopedic surgeon just like him, and Luke who made it through surgery was marrying the gal of his dreams.

As for future Alex? She had lived a long and happy life, even though she had lost the love of her life 50 years before that, and somehow managed to move on without Charlie.

It was enough to allow spirit Charlie to finally let go, but not before seeing present-day Alex one more time, in thetype of farewell scene you can only get away with on a show like this. And thats when Alex really had to say goodbye, as she came up with a plan to donate all of Charlies vital organs to those in need, therefore giving hope to a handful of other families.

Her thinking? She wasnt cursed after all, but she was blessed. Because Charlie was supposed to die in that car crash five years ago, but instead he came back and miraculously tread the line between the dead and living for five more years, giving them borrowed time that she was completely thankful for.

Butbecause we needed one more loving image of these two together before saying goodbye for good, the last scene ever featured them together again. Only this time they were in a version of heaven, a.k.a. the beach, where Charlie had been waiting 50 years for his love to come back to him (he had the hearts etched out in the sand to prove it). With one final kiss the screen faded out, and we were left with the notion that love (eventually) conquers all.

So okay we suppose thats something of a happy ending after all. But man, what a way to go out. That wasnt exactly how we thought this show would go down after so many years of rooting for Alex and Charlie to get together, butwe can say that well definitely remember it.

And in the end, isnt that all you really want from a series finale?

Farewell, Saving Hope. Its been a swell five years.
