Hard Work and Determination Pay Off for Young Athlete

I’ll never forget the afternoon of January 22, 2003. I was just leaving my classroom when my phone lit up, alerting me to a new voicemail. My heart stopped when I listened to the message. It was my son’s pediatrician, asking me to call him back as soon as possible.

It all started a week before, when Derek, a very healthy, active seventh grader at LaSalle Middle School, was recovering from the flu.  He had appeared run down, and although he had gone straight from baseball into a demanding AAU basketball schedule with very little break, I knew that something was very wrong.  He was thirsty all the time, using the restroom frequently, and he looked like he had lost weight.  So I took in a urine sample.

That day on the phone, Dr. Mark Reinertson confirmed my suspicions.  There was sugar in Derek’s urine.  He wanted Derek to pack a bag and go to the St. Luke’s Women’s and Children’s Center immediately.  After the initial shock, the first thing I asked him was, “Can Derek still play sports?”  It probably wasn’t the most logical question to ask at that moment, but I knew that Derek would ask me that same question.  Dr. Mark said, “Of course he can.  He can do anything he did before.  There are many professional athletes who have diabetes.  The key is to get it under control and keep it there.”

That afternoon was not an easy one.  When I showed up at Derek’s locker after school, he and his friends were heading for basketball practice.   I told him that the test had shown that his blood sugar was high and that he needed to check into the hospital for a few days in order to get it to the right levels.  He just looked at me.  When he finally spoke, the first thing he asked was, “Can I still play sports?”

The next four days at the St. Luke’s Women’s and Children’s Center were the longest of my life.  During our stay, Derek had to be tested constantly in order to find the correct initial dosage of insulin.  He had to learn how to poke his fingers for glucose testing and how to administer insulin.  Nurses woke us in the middle of the night to test his blood sugars.  We all met with the dietitian to learn about the importance of counting carbohydrates.

When we returned home from the Center, I told Derek that except for the fact that he would be testing his blood sugar and taking insulin, his life would not change.  I told him that we weren’t going to let this get in the way of his life or become a “big deal” or an obstacle, and I emphasized that he could still do anything he set his mind to.

The first few months were rough.  It took a while to get used to the constant testing and monitoring.  Derek’s medication included Lantus, the 24-hour insulin taken at bedtime, and Humalog, taken during the day with meals.  We soon learned that Derek was very sensitive to insulin.  He rarely needed more than 1 unit of Humalog at each meal.

Derek’s school nurse was a tremendous help to him during those first few months, and Dr. Mark kept us up to date concerning the newest advancements in meters and insulin. Soon Derek was testing his blood sugar in his forearm and using disposable pens for his insulin, which made things much easier with his active schedule.  Dr. Mark always took a personal interest in Derek and his teams.  Having that kind support from your pediatrician is critical, especially for an athlete with diabetes.

Basketball season was our first practice run.  How were we going to adjust Derek’s insulin to all the activity?  How would we know if his number would fall rapidly?  How would we know if it was too high?   But we learned, and Derek learned.  He was very in tune with his highs and lows, and he adjusted accordingly.

Many teens diagnosed with diabetes think that they have to change their lifestyles. Many stop participating in sports or other strenuous activity.  Many coaches shy away from athletes with diabetes because they don’t fully understand the condition. One misconception is that people with diabetes shouldn’t exercise for fear that they will pass out or their blood sugars will go low.  Nothing is further from the truth.  In fact, exercise helped keep Derek’s blood sugars within normal limits.  Testing before and after practices and games and staying in tune with his body was the key for him.  Having the support of the coaching staff was critical.

Derek continued to run track and play football, basketball, and baseball throughout his Xavier High School career.  He never missed a practice, and Xavier is not known for their “light practices.”  Whenever he’d feel low from all the running and conditioning, he’d run over, grab his Gatorade, take some swigs, wait a few minutes until his number went up, and go right back out there.  He never quit.

Derek took a lot of responsibility upon himself and set his goals high.  He was in the weight room every day. His track coach even set up training for him at a performance facility to help him get stronger and faster.  His growth spurt came later than most kids, but he grew into a strong 6’1″, 185-pound young man.  Xavier High School football coach Duane Schulte says, “We will be using Derek as an example at our football practices for years to come.”

Derek sustained broken bones, torn ligaments, a rotator cuff injury, hip flexor injuries, sprains, and all the typical injuries that many athletes encounter.  But he never missed a day due to diabetes, and he never allowed his diagnosis to get in the way of his goals.

Derek’s hard work paid off senior year.  In addition to being named to the all-metro and all-conference teams in football, baseball, and track, he earned all-state honors in track and won three state titles, setting two new state track records. He was also selected as long-time local sports announcer Bob Brooks’ Athlete of the Week.  Alluding to Derek’s future at the University of Northern Iowa, Brooks said, “The best is yet to come.”

In the past, Derek has talked to other teen athletes about diabetes and how to manage it. Now, with a month of college under his belt, his message to young athletes with diabetes is the same one Dr. Mark gave him almost six years ago: “You can do anything you did before.”

Key Steps in Diabetes Care

Living with diabetes means you need to take extra care to stay healthy. The good news is that even small changes in your lifestyle and habits can make a big difference in managing your blood sugar, staying healthy, and preventing complications.

Changes can be challenging. These steps help you manage diabetes, and make changes one step at a time. You can also create a customized action plan with HealthMedia® Care® for Diabetes.

Eat healthy

Diabetes can be prevented, delayed, or better managed by keeping a healthy weight. Changing your diet and eating habits can be very hard work, but even small changes can help.

  • If you have type 2 diabetes, get started on a healthy eating plan. One plan to consider is HealthMedia® Nourish®.
  • Counting carbohydrates is very important for people with diabetes. Learn what a carbohydrate is and how many you should be eating during the day when you eat snacks and meals.
  • Take a look at our diabetes health tools such as the plate format for eating, to help you eat right and keep your blood sugar at an even level.
  • If you’re overweight, losing even a small amount of weight (such as 7 to 15 pounds) can have significant health benefits, especially if you have type 2 diabetes. Use our body mass index calculator to determine your healthy range.
  • A well-balanced diet can help keep diabetes in check. Find out howsmart snacking and healthy eating can help you manage your diabetes.
  • If you need help, you can meet with a registered dietitian or health professional with special training in diabetes care to develop a meal plan that works for you.
  • If you enjoy dining out, review our tips on healthier eating in restaurants.
  • Watch what you drink.  Alcohol can change your blood sugar levels or may not mix well with your medications.  Talk with your doctor about how much is safe to drink.
  • The glycemic index (GI) is a ranking of how high your blood sugar may rise after eating a specific carbohydrate food. Foods are ranked with a low, medium, or high glycemic index. It is best to use the glycemic index with another method such as carbohydrate counting to manage your blood sugar control.

Care for your mind

It’s normal to feel anxious or depressed when you have a chronic condition such as diabetes, but these feelings can keep you from managing your diabetes well.

There are many ways you can help yourself feel better. But if you’re still having problems with depression or anxiety, help is available — talk with your doctor right away.

Care for your body

  • If you smoke, get help quitting. Smoking increases your risk for diabetes complications such as heart attack, stroke, and premature death.
  • Get a flu shot. People with diabetes have a greater risk of complications from the flu, so be sure to get a flu shot every year to lower your chances of getting sick.
  • Have a sick-day plan. When you have diabetes, getting sick can affect your blood sugar. With a sick-day plan, you can keep your blood sugar under control.
  • Check your feet every day. Diabetes can lead to serious foot problems, even amputations. Look for any signs of redness, swelling, sores, cracks or breaks in the skin, or extreme dryness.
  • Stay active. Aim for 30 minutes of moderate exercise on most days of the week. This can make a significant difference in your health and how you feel. Try to walk for at least half an hour each day.
  • If you’re planning to hit the road, find out how to travel safely if you have diabetes.

How Marketers and Brand Managers Can Prepare for the Cognitive Era

The cognitive era is here and machines will be increasingly trusted to not only collect and analyze data, but help us make our decisions. As marketers, the decisions cognitive computers make for us may not be life or death, but they will have profound effects on how our consumer audience discovers products and makes purchasing decisions. We must learn when to trust the machines (or not) and prepare for the cognitive era.

How Design Sprints Can Shape Your Brand

Brand building is typically viewed as part of a long-term engagement. Organizations, and their internal, agency, or consultant teams invest in a discovery (typically through an agency briefing process), a visual exploration or moodboard, and a brand and identity strategy that culminates into a ‘big idea’ campaign with brand guidelines, strategic planning, a website, a communications plan, and media buying.

While these artifacts are incredibly valuable, and necessary, a design sprint offers immediate clarity that can then be used as a creative springboard into other key deliverables. We’ve had great luck ‘cracking’ big idea programs in single sprints that have lead to multi-year campaigns that attack various business challenges. It’s ultimately all about transforming brands with velocity and allowing the sprint to act as a rally cry that connects people from multiple departments and points them towards what’s next.

I sometimes have my own private tree tour. My favorite trees are oaks and trees with fall colors.
From Lake Worth area to Benbrook to Glen Rose are some of the coolest looking live oaks with big branches.One of my favorite is one in Lake Worth that overlooks the lake. That tree maybe the tallest live oak in DFW.It surprised my eyes. I am guessing it's 75-80 ft tall with a wingspan of 100 ft. And it shades the entire house.
Shumard oaks in Fort Worth are huge.
Post oaks are great in the country. In Benbrook to Fort Worth Westover Hills, are some of the largest bur oaks in Texas.
In fact, I finally found the Memorial Oak (Bur oak), of Benbrook in the Pecan Valley Park, one the largest bur oaks. Just right behind the tree was a group of wild turkeys.
Fall colors are also very nice this autumn.
I encourage you to just go out there and just look.

I found that 90% of the pictures from my weekend in the Hill Country is of trees. I love the spreading oak and cypress that are there. I get true, absolute joy when I see a big, beautiful tree. I'm glad to see I'm not alone!

Do you have any pictures you can share?

The campus of the University of Texas at Arlington is smack in the middle of the "Cast Iron Forest" (also called the "Cross Timbers") and the oaks love the limestone soil. They have some gorgeous post oaks and a lot of other varieties as well. Right there in the middle of town.

If you didnt lower the resolution, then we all know you havent used EZ Zoom!

Can you explain why you wouldn't just take the shot at full resolution and crop it in post processing? To my limited understanding you would then only reduce the resolution by the minimum necessary to achieve the framing you want rather than committing to a large reduction in resolution even if you don't EZ Zoom.

I suppose the only real use of EZ Zoom is for better composing final shot at the time of taking it, rather than to crop it later.

Re: I don't see Nikon's continuity in FX lineup ...

The D4 is not a specialty camera.  It is a professional grade camera made for photographers that use their equipment frequently and require reliability, tough contstuction and weather sealing. Nikon should replace  the D4 with either the 24mp or 36mp sensor.

Can you use Nix permethrin lice shampoo on your body as a lotion to kill scabies?

Responses (1)

suzanne66 24 Feb 2010

Yes, the shampoo is what you want to use. Here are the instructions.

"To treat scabies:
Make sure your skin is clean and dry. Apply a thin layer of permethrin topical to all body parts from the neck down to the soles of the feet. Rub in completely. Leave the medication on for 8 to 14 hours, then wash it off completely.
Avoid applying close to the eyes, nose, mouth, or genitals.
If your condition does not clear up within 14 days after applying permethrin topical, use another application."

TRiUS Data Suggests That Testim Significantly Improved Sexual Function in Hypogonadal Men

-Improvement Also Shown in Men with Co-morbid Erectile Dysfunction

MALVERN, Pa., Nov. 3, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Auxilium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: AUXL) today announced the release of clinical practice data from the Testim Registry in the United States (TRiUS). This study showed that daily administration of Testim® 1% (testosterone gel) resulted in significantly improved sexual function and increased total testosterone levels in men with hypogonadism, often referred to as low testosterone. Sexual function assessments from TRiUS, which followed patients in clinical practice for a 12-month period, were published in the November issue of the Journal of Sexual Medicine.

(Logo: )

"These data are an important look at testosterone replacement therapy's (TRT) impact on sexual function in hypogonadal men," said Mohit Khera, M.D., Director of the Laboratory for Andrology Research at Baylor College of Medicine and lead study investigator.  "The improved level of sexual function seen in the study participants suggests that the increases of total testosterone achieved with TRT may correlate with the improvement in their self-reported sexual function."

Investigators assessed data from 271 TRiUS patients and evaluated the correlation between changes in the patients' Brief Male Sexual Function Inventory (BMSFI) scores and their mean total testosterone levels after 12 months of Testim therapy. The BMSFI assessed patients' self-reported sexual drive/libido, erectile function, ejaculatory function, and level of bother/sexual problems. After 12 months of TRT, mean total BMSFI scores significantly increased from baseline from 27.4 +/- 10.3 to 33.8 +/- 9.8 (P < 0.001) and mean total testosterone concentrations increased from 9.28 +/- 4.84 to 17.37 +/- 8.61 nmol/L (p<0.001). Regression analysis indicated that the increased total BMSFI score was significantly associated with increased total testosterone levels.

Significant improvement in sexual function from baseline scores was also seen in a subset of study participants concurrently using PDE5 inhibitors (for example, Viagra® and Cialis®) for erectile dysfunction (ED). Patients on PDE5 inhibitors had significantly lower baseline sexual function scores than other participants, but these scores improved after six and 12 months of TRT.

"About 30 percent of ED patients treated with PDE5 inhibitors do not show improved sexual function," said Dr. James P. Tursi, Chief Medical Officer at Auxilium. "The results from TRiUS provide a valuable look at the potential real-life benefits of TRT for this challenging group of patients with the co-morbid conditions of ED and low testosterone."

"These study results suggest that TRT may be useful in treating sexual dysfunction in hypogonadal men with co-morbid ED," said Dr. Khera. "Men presenting with ED should be screened for hypogonadism and TRT should be considered as an additional therapy if their testosterone levels are below the normal range."

About TRiUS

The Testim Registry in the U.S. (TRiUS) is an observational study to evaluate the effectiveness and short and long term outcomes of testosterone replacement therapy by collecting readily available data from clinical practice settings.  Working with practicing physicians in the U.S., the registry, which is supported by Auxilium Pharmaceuticals, collects data from 849 hypogonadal men who have been prescribed Testim by their physician-investigator.

About Testim

Testim is a proprietary, clear topical gel containing 1% testosterone, the same type of hormone that is produced by the human body.  Testim is used to treat adult males who have low or no testosterone.  When applied once daily to the upper arms and shoulders, clinical studies have shown that Testim will restore and maintain testosterone levels.  Once Testim is absorbed through the skin, it enters the bloodstream and helps return testosterone to normal levels.  The efficacy of Testim has been demonstrated in 16 clinical studies involving approximately 1,800 patients, including the largest placebo-controlled study ever conducted to evaluate the benefits and risks of testosterone replacement therapy.  For information regarding the safety and use of Testim, please see the prescribing information at

Hydroxypropyl Cellulose

Excipient (pharmacologically inactive substance)

What is it?

Hydroxypropyl cellulose, also commonly known as hydroxypropyl methycellulose (HPMC) or hypromellose is a coating agent and film-former used as an inactive ingredient in the pharmaceutical industry. It has also been used as a rate-controlling polymer for sustained-release dose forms.[1]

As a powder, hypromellose is off-white to beige and may be in granules. Hypromellose is considered an inert ingredient. It has a high viscosity and is often used in ophthalmic preparations as artificial tears for dry eyes. In the US, it is available over-the-counter (OTC) in such products as Isopto-Tears and Nature’s Tears.[2]

Having monitored the situation, we have been made aware of a very small number issues with the JANET upgrade but these are of a type which are being resolved on an individual basis and are not impacting the experience for the majority of users: we are working to fix them as quickly as possible.

We would like to express our thanks to our users who took the time to give us their opinions and suggestions prior to the scheduling of the work, to those of you who monitored and reported back on the restoration of services and to all our of users for their patience.

    New U.S. Marine unit trains with French Legion

    New U.S. Marine unit trains with French Foreign Legion

    Story by 1st Lt. Joshua Larson

    U.S. Marine Corps Forces Europe and Africa

    CAMP DES GARRIGUES, France — U.S. Marines with Special-Purpose Marine Air-Ground Task Force Crisis Response, the Marine Corps’ newest unit, spent Oct. 28 to Nov. 1 near Camp des Garrigues, France, training with Legionnaires from France’s 2nd Foreign Infantry Regiment.

    The week-long bilateral event was the first between SP-MAGTF Crisis Response and the French military and served to establish professional, working relationships between the allied nations.

    The event culminated Thursday, Oct. 31, as Marines and Legionnaires took to the skies in a MV-22B Osprey, landing just outside a fenced-in compound that served as the day’s objective.

    The infantrymen assaulted through the compound, communicating and working together as they maneuvered around and through dozens of metal warehouses, concrete urban structures and danger areas, such as road intersections and open fields. All this while fighting a simulated opposing force of fellow Marines and Legionnaires hidden throughout the compound and engaging with blank ammunition to re-create the sounds and smells of the battlefield. The training scenario ended after the force worked its way through a final building, using room-clearing tactics and techniques to eliminate the enemy forces inside.

    Although the Marines and Legionnaires had not trained together before the week began, the assault was a success, mainly due to the striking similarities between the two military organizations.
    Marine Capt. Jackson Smith, the executive officer of Alpha Company, 2nd Reconnaissance Battalion, SP-MAGTF Crisis Response, was asked whether he would be comfortable in a future combat situation with a foreign force. His answer came quickly:

    “If it was with these guys — I’d go anywhere with these guys,” he said.

    Smith’s statement captured the sentiment of most of the infantry Marines involved in the exercise. But SP-MAGTF Crisis Response didn’t only bring its infantry to France. They also brought an MV-22B Osprey — the first to ever operate tactically in an exercise on French soil.

    “It was a great week — the U.S. has a long and valued history with France and we hope we can get together with them for follow on training,” said Capt. Kyle Stuart, an MV-22B Osprey pilot with Marine Medium Tilitrotor Squadron 162, SP-MAGTF Crisis Response.

    Stuart said it was a neat experience to be the first pilot to fly an Osprey to France as part of an exercise, but the honor belongs to his squadron, VMM-162, and the Marines and sailors of SP-MAGTF Crisis Response.

    The MV-22B Osprey adds a significant capability to the operations of SP-MAGTF Crisis Response not enjoyed by other military organizations throughout the world. The Ospreys are organic to the unit, which means they directly support all Crisis Response forces — an essential characteristic for a unit whose mission is to provide a quick-deploying force to support potential crises as directed over large areas in U.S. Africa Command.

    Because of that mission, the Marines in France were only a contingent from SP-MAGTF Crisis Response, as most of the unit remains on constant alert at Moron Air Base, Spain, where the unit is temporarily based.

    “Our unit’s alert status can make it a challenge to get away and do these types of events,” said Capt. T. D. McAbee, the officer-in-charge of the exercise for the Marines. “But bilateral exercises are integral for maintaining our ability to focus on our mission and sharpen our skills while fostering improved military relations with our sister nation’s militaries.”

    The Legionnaires hosted a 7K obstacle course as the final event of the week, but instead of competing against each other — as would seem natural for two militaries with histories as storied as these — the two units joined forces and finished together.

    Afterward, there was a gift exchange followed by food and drinks, capping a successful week of training.

    Both Marines and Legionnaires said they gained many things, each remarking how their standards of discipline and camaraderie along with their warfighting traditions provide a strong link between the two. Both hope for an opportunity to train again soon.

    SP-MAGTF Crisis Response returned to Spain after the exercise, and has plans for more bilateral training with their partners in the Spanish military in the coming weeks.

    Building the Integration Bridge

    Afghans organize first-ever air-to-ground conference

    Photo By Staff Sgt. Vernon Young | Afghan National Army police provide security during the first-ever air and ground...... read more read more

    KABUL, Afghanistan (AFNS) -- More than 180 coalition military service members, Ministry of Defense and Afghanistan military key leaders assembled for the first-ever Afghanistan Air Force air-to-ground integration conference here May 17, 2014.

    The key leaders discussed several topics including mission planning, decision-making, communication between air and ground, training methods and experiences. The self-sustaining military body continues to evolve with the Afghan Air Force and Afghan National Army.
    Timely and accurate decisions can save lives on the battle field in most cases.

    Air advisers of the 438th Air Expeditionary Wing were also on hand to support the team-building event. Many of them have provided strategic plans for the development of AAF medical and logistic processes and improvements.

    The conference provided a forum for ANA key leaders to voice any issues and also positive outlooks on training and future missions.

    “The Afghan Air Force is doing a great job with their capabilities, said U.S. Air Force Col. Christopher Levy, 438th Air Expeditionary Wing, director of operations, NATO Air Training Command - Afghanistan. “We continue to advise them as they mature in their abilities to provide casualty evacuation, human remains transfer, transporting of goods and aerial fires.”

    The next step for the AAF is to integrate the aerial fires capability with the ANA, as they do maneuvers on the ground. An integral part of this program includes the placement of Afghan liaison officers and Afghan tactical air coordinators into the core battalions of the ANA. The idea is embed AAF with ANA during missions to produce better results as a team, said Levy.

    Since 2013, the improvement of the AAF communications between grown and air assets has enabled growth, savings thousands of patients during casualty evacuation missions. The solutions of the discussion will increase mission effectiveness and improve the timeliness of saving lives on the battle field significantly.

    To help build communication skills and teamwork, U.S. Air Force air advisers have created a class to teach the AAF and ANA how to create an 8-line, which provides a detailed intelligence report to pilots flying in support of ground personnel. The first Afghan Tactical Air Coordinator (ATAC) class is projected to graduate in May 2014. These troops will possess the knowledge and technique to call in air support while on the ground doing their mission.

    An ATAC assists the engagement of enemy forces utilizing advanced technologies and weapon systems to coordinate airstrikes in close proximity of friendly forces.

    During the year, several conferences are scheduled that will focus on personnel, logistics and direction.

    Looking ahead, the AAF will have to knowledge to train those ANA soldiers that don’t have the training and improve their overall battle field capabilities tremendously.

    The AAF personnel operating in Afghanistan today are leaps and bounds ahead of initial expectations.

The Rational Individual

Researchers argue about the extent to which people are rational, but the real problem with the concept of the rational individual is that our desires, preferences and decisions are not primarily the result of individual thinking. Because economics and much of cognitive science takes the unit of analysis to be an independent individual, they have difficulty accounting for social phenomena such as financial bubbles, political movements, panics, technology trends, or even the course of scientific progress.

Near the end of the 1700s, philosophers began to declare that humans were rational individuals. People were flattered by being recognized as individuals, and by being called rational, and the idea soon wormed its way into the belief systems of nearly everyone in upper-class Western society. Despite resistance from church and state, this idea of rational individuality replaced the assumption that truth only came from god and king. Over time, the ideas of rationality and individualism changed the entire belief system of Western intellectual society, and today it is doing the same to the belief systems of other cultures.

Recent research data from my lab and other labs are changing this argument, and we are now coming to realize that human behavior is determined as much by social context as by rational thinking or individual desires. Rationality, as economists use the term, means that an individual knows what he or she wants and acts to get it. But this new research shows that in this regard, social network effects often, and perhaps typically, dominate both the desires and the decisions about how individuals act.

Recently, economists have moved toward the idea of "'bounded rationality'," which means that we have biases and cognitive limitations that prevent us from realizing full rationality. Our dependence on social interactions, however, is not simply a bias or a cognitive limitation. Social learning is an important method of enhancing individual decision-making. Similarly, social influence is central to constructing the social norms that enable cooperative behavior. Our ability to survive and prosper is due to social learning and social influence at least as much as it is due to individual rationality.

These data tell us that what we want and value, as well as how we choose to act in order to obtain our desires, are a constantly evolving property of interactions with other people. Our desires and preferences are mostly based on what our peer community agrees is valuable, rather than on rational reflection based directly on our individual biological drives or inborn morals.

For instance, after the Great Recession of 2008, when many houses were suddenly worth less than their mortgages, researchers found that it only took a few people walking away from their houses and mortgages to convince many of their neighbors to do the same thing. A behavior that had previously been thought nearly criminal or immoral, i.e., purposely defaulting on a mortgage, now became common. Using the terminology of economics, in most things we are collectively rational, and only in some areas are we individually rational.

By mathematically modeling the social learning and social pressure between people my colleagues and I have been able to accurately model and predict crowd phenomena such as this cascade of mortgage defaulting. Importantly, we have also found that it is possible to shape real-world crowd behaviors by using social network incentives that alter the connections between people, and that these social incentives are much more effective than standard individual economic incentives. In one particularly striking example we were able to use social network incentives to deflate a 'groupthink' bubble among foreign exchange traders and consequently double the return on investment of the individual traders.

So instead of individual rationality I believe that we have common sense. The collective intelligence of a community comes from the surrounding flow of ideas and examples; we learn from others in our environment, and these others learn from us. Over time, a community with members who actively engage with each other creates a group with shared, integrated habits and beliefs. When the flow of ideas incorporates a constant stream of outside ideas as well, then the individuals in the community make better decisions than they could on their own.

This idea of a collective intelligence that develops within communities is an old one; indeed, it is embedded in the English language. Consider the word "kith," familiar to modern English speakers from the phrase "kith and kin." Derived from old English and old German words for knowledge, kith refer to a more or less cohesive group with common beliefs and customs. These are also the roots for "couth," which means possessing a high degree of sophistication, as well as its more familiar counterpart, uncouth. Thus, our kith is the circle of peers (not just friends) from whom we learn the "correct" habits of action.

Our ancestors understood that our culture and the habits of our society are social contracts, and that both depend primarily upon social learning. As a result, observing the attitudes, actions, and outcomes of peers, rather than by using logic or argument is how we learn most of our public beliefs and habits. Learning and re-enforcing this social contract is what enables a group of people to coordinate their actions effectively. It is time that we dropped the fiction of individuals as the unit of rationality, and recognized that we are embedded in the surrounding social fabric.

The Mysterious Cough, Diagnosed and Treated

Peter Dicpinigaitis, MD
The human cough, recently caught on film by schlieren photography as featured in the New York Times, accounts for over 26 million office visits annually. It is a topic of burgeoning research, emerging treatment innovations, and a great deal of ongoing mystery, according to Dr. Peter Dicpinigaitis, Professor of Clinical Medicine (Critical Care Medicine) and Director of the Montefiore Medical-Surgical Intensive Care Unit (Weiler Division) who presented a recent Medicine Grand Rounds lecture entitled “Evaluation and Management of Chronic Cough.”

The cough reflex is one of humans’ most vital defenses, highly effective in clearing secretions and preventing foreign materials from entering the lower respiratory tract. However, when a pathological cough persists without serving any useful purpose, it can be highly irritating and disruptive, causing significant sleep disturbance, chest pain, urinary incontinence, frustration, anger, and depression. “It’s easy to underestimate the tremendous quality of life issue that cough is, not only for the patient but for the family. Some of our patients have been coughing every single day for ten, twenty, even thirty years,” said Dr. Dicpinigaitis, who founded the Montefiore Cough Center, one of the few specialty cough centers in the United States.

Despite the prevalence of cough, researchers have yet to fullyunderstand its mechanism and relationship with the brain. Stimulation of the vagus—a cranial nerve with motor function in the larynx, esophagus, lower respiratory tract, and ear—can stimulate the cough reflex. The transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV1) receptor, a sensory nerve channel known as a “cough receptor,” induces the reflex when stimulated by irritants such as capsaicin (derived from red chili peppers), hydrogen, heat, low pH, certain enzymes, and anandamide (a naturally occurring, euphoria-inducing brain neurotransmitter).

The cough mystery presents a particular challenge to those who attempt to diagnose and treat it. According to Dicpinigaitis, physicians need to maintain the protective cough, an important barrier reflex that prevents complications like bronchitis, pneumonia, and lung collapse, but eliminate the maladaptive cough. To do this successfully, the cough’s underlying etiology must be identified and addressed.

Manypatients cough due to post-nasal drip, or upper airway cough syndrome (UACS). UACS is often treated with a combination of a first-generation decongestant/antihistamine and other nasal corticosteroids, nasal ipratropium bromide, or nasal cromolyn. Newer generation, non-sedating antihistamines such as Claritin, Zyrtec, and Allegra, which circumvent drowsiness because they don’t pass the blood-brain barrier, are ineffective for treating UACS-associated cough.

Asthma, whether “cough-variant” (where cough is the sole or predominant symptom) or “classic” (with symptoms including wheezing) is the second most common cause of chronic cough, found in 24-29% of patients. Coughing inflames the sensory afferent nerves (those that carry messages from receptors to the central nervous system). Leukotrienes, lipid mediators whose production also generates histamines, are thought to contribute to the inflammation. Asthma therapy (usually a combination of inhaled bronchodilators and steroids) can take up to eight weeks to show improvement. An oral leukotriene receptor antagonist known as zafirlukast has in some cases been more effective than steroids in reducing asthma-associated cough, possibly because it more effectively suppresses the interaction of eosinophils (white blood cells that fight concomitant infection during asthmatic reaction) with cough receptors. Non-asthmatic eosinophilic bronchitis, a condition characterized by chronic cough without the airway remodeling common to asthma, is often misdiagnosed as cough-variant asthma because it responds similarly to inhaled corticosteroids.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is among the most common etiologies of cough, and perhaps the most difficult to diagnose. Most patients with reflux-associated cough have no other symptoms of GERD, though the characteristic heartburn, nausea, and regurgitation may subsequently appear. The standard GI workup for GERD—endoscopy, barium esophagram, prolonged esophageal acid monitoring, and impedance monitoring—may not detect mild acid exposure, brief reflux events, rapid esophageal clearance, and distal or “high” reflux. “You might send your patient for a full GI workup and receive test results that are unremarkable, but that patient’s reflux still causes an incredibly life-jarring cough,” said Dicpinigaitis.

Chronic cough can also result from laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR), a subtype of GERD in which reflux reaches the upper airways. People with LPR often cough when eating, drinking, laughing, talking on the telephone, or getting up in the morning, and may experience hoarseness or other voice change.

The current GERD diagnostic options and treatment therapies may be inadequate, though better options are beginning to emerge. Twenty-four-hour catheter-based pH monitoring, for example, is invasive and often inconclusive as patients typically modify their activity and diet the day they wear the nasal catheter. Better but costlier options include the Bravo™ pH Monitoring System, in which a tubeless monitoring capsule is placed in the mucosal wall of the esophagus, transmitting pH data to a pager-sized receiver worn on patient’s belt over a 48-hour period; and Multichannel Intraluminal Impedance (MII) Testing, which assesses acid and non-acid reflux, adequacy of acid suppression, and symptom-reflux association. Treatment for GERD—usually aggressive acid suppression therapy, an approach that requires significant diet and lifestyle modification—may still be inadequate, and the addition of prokinetic therapy with additional medication may be necessary. Those who don’t respond sufficiently to acid suppression and prokinetic therapy may be candidates for laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication, or “antireflux surgery,” which, based on small published reports, has yielded quality of life improvements in up to 90% of patients who have undergone it.

Postinfectious or postviral cough, a harsh, dry, persistent hack remaining from an upper respiratory infection, has been historically difficult to treat. This cough creates persistent airway inflammation, which in turn causes enhanced cough sensitivity, creating a vicious cycle that inhibits healing. Postviral coughs can persist for weeks or even months and may respond to antiinflammatory agents, such as inhaled and oral steroids.

More effective cough treatment options are needed, yet no new antitussive drugs have been developed in the last half century, according to Dicpinigaitis. With the discovery of TRPV1, however, pharmaceutical companies’ interest in these medications has surged. Numerous potential novel antitussive agents are now being studied, including antagonists to eosinophil, tachykinin receptor, 5-HT receptor, and TRPV1 receptor; agonists to the delta-opioid receptor, NOP receptor, and GABA-B; endogenous cannabinoids, and large conductance Ca+2-activated K+-channel openers.

The idiopathic (unexplained) cough remains a mystery. Patients with this cough—predominantly peri-menopausal women with a lower capsaicin threshold, many of whom have had an upper respiratory infection preceding symptom onset—may have been inadequately diagnosed. However, even after aggressive, comprehensive testing and treatment, some continue to cough. A percentage of these patients are reported to have lymphocytic airway inflammation and autoimmune diseases, but the link is neither consistent nor definitive.

Chronic cough is the most common reason that patients seek medical care, yet only a fraction of people with UACS, asthma, non-asthmatic eosinophilic bronchitis, or GERD actually experience this symptom, a phenomenon yet to be understood. These individuals may possess an intrinsically hypersensitive cough reflex, more easily triggered by aggravating factors to produce the reaction.

Although cough has been historically under-researched relative to its importance as a medical problem, the last decade has witnessed a significant increase in scientific activity dedicated to understanding the mechanism of cough, and identifying more effective therapies. The second American Cough Conference, chaired by Dr. Dicpinigaitis, will occur June 12-13, 2009, convening a faculty of the world’s cough experts. Those interested can learn more about the conference at www.coughconference.com.

Rectifiable curve

From Encyclopedia of Mathematics
Jump to: navigation, search

2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: Primary: 53A04 Secondary: 53A35 [MSN][ZBL]

General definition

A rectifiable curve is a curve having finite length (cf. Line (curve)). More precisely, consider a metric space $(X, d)$ and a continuous function $\gamma: [0,1]\to X$. $\gamma$ is a parametrization of a rectifiable curve if there is an homeomorphism $\varphi: [0,1]\to [0,1]$ such that the map $\gamma\circ \varphi$ is Lipschitz. We can think of a curve as an equivalence class of continuous maps $\gamma:[0,1]\to X$, where two maps $\gamma$ and $\gamma'$ are equivalent if and only if there is an homeomorphism $\varphi$ of $[0,1]$ onto itself such that $\gamma'=\gamma\circ \varphi$. Each element of the equivalence class is a parametrization of the curve and thus a rectifiable curve is a curve which has a Lipschitz continuous parametrization.

Consider now the family $\Pi$ of finite ordered subsets of $[0,1]$, i.e. of points $0 \leq t_0< t_1<t_2<\ldots < t_N \leq 1$. Given a continuous $\gamma:[0,1]\to X$ and an element $\pi = \{t_0, \ldots, t_N\} \in \Pi$ consider the number \[ s (\pi, \gamma) = \sum_{i=1}^N d (\gamma (t_{i-1}), \gamma (t_i))\, . \] A continuous function $\gamma:[0,1]\to X$ parametrize a rectifiable curve if and only if the following number is finite \[ L (\gamma) = \sup_{\pi\in\Pi}\, s (\pi, \gamma)\, . \] The number $L (\gamma)$ is the length of the curve and it is independent of the parametrization (cp. with Section 3.2 of [Fa] for the Euclidean case).

Euclidean setting

A primary example are rectifiable curves in the euclidean space, where $X$ is given by $\mathbb R^n$ and the distance $d$ is the usual euclidean one: $d(x,y)=|x-y|$. In this case, if $\gamma$ is a Lipschitz parametrization, the length of $\gamma$ can be expressed through the usual integral formula \begin{equation}\tag{1} L (\gamma) = \int_0^1 |\dot{\gamma} (t)|\, dt\, , \end{equation} where $\dot{\gamma} (t)$ is the derivative of $\gamma$ at $t$ (recall that, by Rademacher theorem the Lipschitz function $\gamma$ is differentiable at almost every $t$). The formula (1) can be suitably generalized to metric spaces introducing an appropriate notion of metric derivative (see [AGS]).

Relation to Hausdorff measure and rectifiable sets

The images of rectifiable curves are primary examples of rectifiable sets. The following classical theorem characterizes the images of rectifiable curves (cp. with Exercise 3.5 of [Fa]).

Theorem 1 A set $E\subset \mathbb R^n$ is the image of a rectifiable curve if and only if it is compact, connected and it has finite Hausdorff $1$-dimensional measure $\mathcal{H}^1$.

When the curve is not self-intersecting (i.e. its parametrizations are injective), the length of the curve is then the $\mathcal{H}^1$ measure of its image (cp. with Lemma 3.2 of [Fa]). More generally, in the presence of self-intersections $\mathcal{H}^1 (\gamma ([0,1]))$ and $L (\gamma)$ can be related to each other through the Area formula.

Since any compact interval is homeomorphic to $[0,1]$ in the definition above we could have taken a generic compact interval $[a,b]$. Other obvious variants of these definitions can be obtained using open intervals or $\mathbb S^1$ as domains for the parametrizations $\gamma$. In the latter case the resulting objects are called closed curves and closed rectifiable curves. Some authors use the names arc and rectifiable arc (resp. closed and open) when the domain of definition of the parametrization is an interval (resp. closed and open).

Is there such a thing as casually hardcore?

Anne Stickney

Once upon a time, I was an MC raider back in vanilla WoW. I raided six nights a week, three to four hours a night. My off night, Friday, was spent gathering plants in Felwood and other materials for potions and flasks. We busted our butts on completing progression content before anyone else on the realm, and if we couldn't manage that, before anyone else on our side of the faction fence managed to do so. Somewhere in the midst of AQ-40, the guild fell apart. People were just burnt out on way too much raiding and all the preparation involved in getting that raiding done successfully.

These days, I raid three nights a week, three hours a night or so. To me, it's far, far more casual than what I used to do. I don't spend a ton of time on farming materials, and I don't spend a ton of time on other things unless it happens to be in game holiday time. I don't usually run random instances unless I'm after something specific, and I don't really do PvP at all. I'd call myself casual, simply based on the time that I play and what I do with that time. Yet there are still plenty of people out there who fling the hardcore title at me.

When I look at how I used to play and how I play now, I can't understand why anyone would think what I'm doing now is anything but casual, and I'm confused as to why anyone would say differently.

Beru over at Falling Leaves and Wings discussed this in a recent post in which she talked about the "in between" -- the space between hardcore and casual. And she also talks about the stubborn nature of players and their tendency to place people either under that casual or hardcore label. To Beru, that in-between space is far larger than most people realize, and what she's puzzling over is what exactly defines a player as hardcore. Is it the amount of progression? The speed that you progress? What you demand out of the players in your guild in terms of performance or time?

It's a really good question, and I don't know if there's really a defined answer to it because the question itself is so subjective. To someone like me who spent endless hours plugging away in Molten Core and trying to smush Ragnaros into a fine paste, what I do now is much less hardcore, far more casual, and just my speed. But to someone who's never stepped a foot into a raid instance in their gaming lifetime, even the little raiding I do must look like a lot.

I am on a tiny little realm -- so tiny that my guild decided to go back and grab realm-first Sinestra last month. Yes, we're that small. As far as my realm is concerned, my guild is pretty much the top guild on it. We're the only 25-man raiding guild. We're further along in progression than any of the 10-man guilds are currently. To all those players on my tiny little realm, I guess our guild must look pretty hardcore, but we're not really. We shoot for progression, but the overall guild atmosphere is pretty laid back and a lot of fun. We joke, we laugh, we have moments of silliness. We definitely aren't militant or strict in nature.

To our realm, maybe we look hardcore. To the rest of the world, I expect we look somewhat casual. It's all a matter of which perspective you're looking at the situation from, I think. As far as I am concerned, my guild and my playstyle is entrenched deeply in that somewhere in between, and I'm perfectly OK with that. It's exactly where I want to be.

I think what bothers me more than the definitions is the way that the terms casual and hardcore are thrown about like insults, to be perfectly honest. Having played both ends of the spectrum, I can firmly say that there's nothing really wrong with either, but I think that most players out there are somewhere in that in-between space. What I think is most interesting, however, is that WoW seems to be steadily moving, developmentally speaking, to a space that is neither casual nor hardcore. It's somewhere in between -- somewhere where all of us already are.

'Water Gun Marketing' at SXSW

Water Gun Marketing at SXSWBootstrapper entrepreneurs aren't often blessed with fat marketing budgets. So when a good opportunity for exposure comes along -- like SXSW -- they have to outthink, rather than outspend, their competition.

This was the exact predicament where startup Qlobe found itself heading into this year's festival. The three founders -- Brennen Peters, Hunter Edwards and Jon Perritt -- knew they couldn't afford to be an official sponsor, so, instead, they got creative. Their plan: buy 1,000 water guns, a mobile watering station and overtake the streets of downtown Austin.

Qlobe was born in late 2010 out of a shared social networking problem. Peters, Edwards and Perritt were drowning in a deluge of online data, connected to so many people on Facebook and Twitter but with no good way to filter their incoming content by areas of interest. This prompted the threesome to put their careers at public consulting firm Booz Allen Hamilton in the rear view mirror and focus on building a better mousetrap. As Peters describes it: "Qlobe is Twitter for your interests. Instead of following people, you follow things you like."

So why all the water guns?

This Friday, Qlobe is hosting a spontaneous pre-launch event they're calling "The World's Largest Water Gun Fight." In Peters' words: "We wanted to do something different, something fun and to get people excited about the brand." In true "flash mob" fashion, participants sign up on Qlobe's Facebook page in advance, then stand by for an incoming alert just 30 minutes prior to the event telling them where exactly to show up.

Qlobe is spending about $1,000 on supplies and grassroots marketing. Their goal is to get 1,000 new college-age customers to submit an email address and try Qlobe. "So many startups have to spend $3 or $4 per customer acquisition, so we think $1 would be pretty good," said Peters.

At a festival that's all about trying new things and in a city that fosters creativity, it seems targeting new customers with water guns just might work.

Door Number 3-- Prentice Howe is senior vice president, executive creative director at Door Number 3, an independent branding shop in Austin.
