Digital Pathology: Enabling Remote Operations During COVID-19 and Beyond

April 8, 2020
Mike Bonham, MD, PhD

Is remote work for pathology here to stay?

Mike Bonham, MD, PhD

We are all severely impacted by the rapidly evolving coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Terms such as “social distancing,” “self-quarantine,” and “flattening the curve,” have become the most meaningful descriptors of how we live our lives. This pandemic will, hopefully soon, resolve; however, its lasting effects will lead to permanent changes in how we live and work. We are growing used to remote technologies and the conveniences they offer. Although we will eventually go back to our regular activities, we will want to rely on these solutions in many workplace environments as we settle into the reality of a post-COVID-19 world.

In pathology, we are already starting to see the beginning of these permanent changes, as the need for social distancing and quarantine has forced the entirety of how pathology operates to be transformed almost overnight. Laboratory staff typically works on-site, reading patient biopsies affixed to glass slides under a microscope using validated methods as they have for the past 150 years. This routine clinical work, along with consultation and tumor boards, has been completely disrupted, meaning that patients may now need to wait longer to receive a diagnosis and begin treatment for diseases like cancer. Research and education have been similarly impacted as teams and students can no longer gather in 1 central location.

Digital pathology, which captures high-resolution images of tissue specimen, has been pivotal in enabling pathologists to maintain operations during the pandemic. These digital images can be viewed anywhere and easily shared for second opinions and consults, or in digital teaching sets, overcoming the limitations of working with physical glass slides and microscopes.

As a result, demand for digital pathology from both commercial laboratories and academic institutions has skyrocketed. Medical centers have introduced the technology to enable collaborative review sessions on challenging cases and expand access to sub-specialist expertise. Many medical schools have already shifted their classes online and are now providing an experience similar to, if not the same as, what students would receive in the classroom.

This demand for digital pathology is clearly being driven by the current need for remote operations. Importantly, it’s also being accelerated by a key regulatory development.

In late March, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) temporarily waived the requirement for pathologists to perform the complex and time-consuming validation requirements established by the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendment to read cases from home. This fundamental change makes it significantly more practical for pathologists to work virtually. It also raises an important question: is remote work for pathology here to stay?

Until now, we have never had a real opportunity to determine the impact of remote work on pathologists. Regulatory requirements, along with the reliance of physical glass slides, has made working remotely all too difficult. The COVID-19 crisis has given pathologists no choice but to work from home and has broken down the regulatory barriers for them to do so. It’s evident that digital pathology and the new standard operating procedures will address pathologists’ urgent needs, but are these responses here to stay for the long term?

As pathology organizations realize the advantages of remote operations as a first choice—from saving time on commutes to accessing cases on-demand and tapping into a much broader network of expertise—or in the event of a future crisis, it is hard to imagine that virtual work in the field will cease once this public health crisis is over.

In News & Reports

By The Associated Press

Video interviews with survivors of a deadly attack by Islamic militants on a bus taking Egyptian Christians to a remote desert monastery are painting a picture of untold horror, with children hiding under their seats to escape gunfire.

The videos surfaced on social media networks on Sunday, two days after 29 were killed in the attack on a desert road south of the capital. The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the attack on Friday. It was the fourth attack against Christians in Egypt since December to be claimed by the IS. The string of attacks have killed more than 100 and injured scores.

One survivor, a small boy who seemed to be about six, said his mother pushed him under her seat and covered him with a bag. A young woman speaking from her hospital bed said the assailants ordered the women to surrender their jewelry and money before they opened fire, killing the men first and then some of the women.

The woman said the gunmen were masked and wore military uniforms.

Two girls, ages 2 and 4, were among those killed, according to a list released by the local government in Minya, the province where the shooting took place. The attack left 26 wounded, including nine children. Only 11 of the 26 remained hospitalized on Sunday.

Bishop Makarios, the top Coptic Orthodox cleric in Minya, said the assailants told Christian men they ordered off the bus that their lives would be spared if they converted to Islam.

“They chose death,” said Makarios, who has been an outspoken critic of the government’s handling of anti-Christian violence in Minya, where Christians account for more than 35 percent of the population, the highest anywhere in Egypt.

“We take pride to die while holding on to our faith,” he said in a television interview aired late Saturday.

Makarios confirmed that the assailants stole the women’s jewelry and his contention that the men were ordered off the bus before being killed was also confirmed by a video clip purportedly taken in the immediate aftermath of the shooting. This video showed at least four or five bodies of adult men lying on the desert sand next to the bus; women and other men screamed and cried as they stood or squatted next to the bodies.

Egypt responded to the attack with a wave of airstrikes against suspected militant bases where the military said the perpetrators trained. A large-scale manhunt by police and soldiers backed by helicopters is underway in the vast deserts to the west of the site of the attack, but has so far yielded no arrests.

In funerals for the victims held over the weekend in Minya, women relatives passed out, while others wailed in grief. There were chants demanding retribution. Others chanted “With our lives and blood, we sacrifice ourselves for the cross” and “Oh, God!.”

In the Vatican, Pope Francis, for the second day in a row, expressed his solidarity with Egypt’s Coptic Christians following Friday’s attack. He led thousands of people in prayer Sunday for the victims, who Francis said were killed in “another act of ferocious violence” after having refused to renounce their Christian faith.

Speaking from his studio window over St. Peter’s Square, he said: “May the Lord welcome these courageous witnesses, these martyrs, in his peace and convert the hearts of the violent ones.”

Frequently Asked Questions

When will you have more stock?

Stock is ordered on a regular basis with anywhere between a 3-6 week lead time.
Unfortunately, not all colours and cord types are always available so I often make several orders to keep as well stocked as possible.
The best place to keep an eye out for any new stock drops is my Instagram - so make sure you’re following me @cotton_and_cord as its always the first place I announce new deliveries.

Can I pre-order products?

Due to stock availability and lead times I do not provide a pre-order service. However if there are certain colours and cord types which you are looking for just drop me a message and I will do my best to get in touch when they are back in stock.

Do you ship outside of the UK?

Due to shipping costs and customs complexities I currently only ship within the United Kingdom.

What products do you stock?

Currently I stock Bobbiny Macramé Cord - having searched high and low for something comparable (both in quality, colour range and eco-credentials), it has proven VERY difficult to beat. Any future products and stocked will have to meet strict quality and eco-credentials.

I also offer a range of Macramé accessories - one stop for all your Macrame needs!

At the moment I do not stock 5mm 3 Ply rope or Jumbo Braided cord due to limited demand for these products. If these are products you would love to see Cotton and Cord stock - get in touch and I will listen to all feedback and maybe something I add to my portfolio in the future. If there is something you would love to see me offer - let me know.

Do you offer a discount?

When pricing my products I feel they are priced fairly and competitively. From time to time I may do promotions which will be advertised across social media and in my shop announcement.

What packaging do you use?

I only use plastic free packaging. Sure - it’s a little more expensive but I make sure I don’t pass this cost on, I actually take a little hit on P&P just to make sure that all items are sent in environmentally friendly packaging.

How can I track my package?

I use Royal Mail – with the majority of parcels being sent 2nd class as a small parcel. This is a partially tracked service which provides a tracking reference which will let you know when delivery has been attempted. Unfortunately, it doesn’t let you know where your package is en-route to you. Your dispatch notification will have the tracking information needed.

Please allow up to 10 days for your order to arrive before dispatch. With the current climate Royal Mail has had disruption to their normal service standards and so for a very small minority of orders there may be some delays.

We covered most of the game last night and Jeff will be along later with some thoughts 24 hours later, so let's get right to the links.

Upon Further Review - WSU @ SMU Video Highlights
Sean has some game thoughts and a highlight video that's a must watch.

WSU's loss at SMU, the day after - SportsLink - - Sept. 19, 2010
"We didn't convert some opportunities," Wulff said, pointing to a third-and-7 screen pass to James Montgomery early in the fourth quarter. "We just misconnected. We thought that thing could have been to the house."

WSU Post-Game: Tonight We Saw...
Our offensive weapons are better than what we've had in years. Tonight we saw Chapter II in the Marquess Wilson highlight show. We saw how dangerous Karstetter can be at times because of his size and strength. We saw solid possession receiving from Solomon, Barton, and Simone.

Improved Cougs come up short again in Texas | WSU Cougars - The News Tribune
The beer-bellied Southern Methodist fan, his bald head perspiring in temperatures that would soon top 90 degrees, announced to everyone within earshot that a blowout victory over Washington State was all but certain.

Cougars can’t hide their phenom | WSU Cougars - The News Tribune
After three games, Wilson leads the Cougars with 13 catches and 282 receiving yards. He's tied with Jared Karstetter, who scored WSU's first touchdown Saturday, for the team lead with two TD catches.

Mustangs' success isn't reflected in the stands | SMU Mustangs News | Sports News | News for Dallas, Texas | Dallas Morning News
SMU's victory over Washington State broke a 17-game, 10-year losing streak against schools in conferences that own automatic bids to the BCS bowls. It was also the Mustangs' seventh win in their last eight games.

Cougars | Freshman receiver Wilson making an impact for Cougars | WSU notebook | Seattle Times Newspaper
"It's hot, humid," Kooyman said. "It's definitely not like Pullman. I would say the second half, it caught up with me a little bit." "We were a little sluggish," WSU coach Paul Wulff said, "but I can't say they weren't either." Spotty protection for Tuel spells Cougar loss
ON ONE OF the rare occasions where the line provided good protection, Tuel showed his potential by finding true freshman wide receiver Marquess Wilson for a 68-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter. Wilson had six receptions for 134 yards, while Tuel completed 18 of 33 passes for 284 yards and two touchdowns.

That's it for now. Be back with more later.

Ganga floods Varanasi ghats, 20 dead in UP rains

Varanasi: A swelling Ganga river has inundated the temples on Varanasi ghats and forced cremations at the Manikarnika to be shifted to upper platforms, a Uttar Pradesh official said on Thursday.

The river rose by over two metres in the last 24-hours. The famous Ganga aarti from the boats has also been banned. It is flowing just two metres below the danger mark at 69.91m. The Sheetla temple and Ratneshwar Mahadev temple were submerged.

The water level of Varuna river here has also increased. It has flooded the old bridge area, Konia, Kazzakpur and many other low-lying areas. Three teams of the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) have been pressed asked to keep a tab on the rising waters and brace for any eventuality.

An NDRF team consisting of 20-25 personnel have been posted on the Assi Ghat, Dashvashmedh Ghat and Rajghat.

Waters of the Varuna river increased due to increased monsoon activity and release of five lakh cusecs of water from the Matateela dam in Lalitpur a few days back, a district official said as rains continued to wreak havoc in many parts of Uttar Pradesh.

In the last 24 hours, 20 persons have been killed in rain-related incidents, including wall collapses, house cave-ins and lightening. According to the office of the Relief Commissioner, three persons have died in Gonda, two in Mirzapur, one each in Meerut, Sitapur and Bahraich while three persons have died in Kushinagar, one in Unnao, two in Bijnore, one in Auraiyya, one in Jaunpur and one in Etah.

Sports minister of Uttar Pradesh, Chetan Chauhan would be visiting Farukkhabad later in the day to distribute relief and other material in the district. He told that he will be taking a boat ride to meet the marooned villagers and give them relief material, food items and medicines.

Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is also scheduled for an aerial survey of flood-hit districts of Barabanki, Basti, Sitapur and Gonda. Heavy rains have been battering most parts of the state for the last 10 days, leading to flooding of many regions and water logging in major cities and towns.

There was, however, clear skies in Lucknow on Thursday, though the Met forecast two more days of heavy rains in the city and around.

Emmanuel Clase avoiding bullpen doldrums |
From Joe Noga:

Indians relievers have had their struggles in August, but closer Emmanuel Clase has been a consistent force at the back end for more than a month.

Clase served up a walk-off home run to Oakland’s Jed Lowrie on July 16, and since then he’s been lights-out. The right-hander has not allowed a run in his last 18 1/3 innings, marking the second-longest active streak among major league relievers behind San Francisco’s José Álvarez (19 2/3).

In his last 18 games, Clase has given up just seven hits and one walk while striking out 20 and limiting opposing hitters to a .115 batting average. He has converted seven consecutive save chances, and should get plenty more opportunities with James Karinchak now pitching at Triple-A Columbus.

(Oktaviani and Novianti 2009). The main reasons for trading between countries is because they differ from each other. They trade to achieve economies of scale. These trading activities can cause trade balance and each country will benefit from international trade if they make specialization to produce goods that have a comparative advantage, or import goods that do not have a comparative advantage. Furthermore, there are several factors that can affect international trade, such as, the desire to expand the market, increase foreign exchange earnings for development activities, the difference between the country of supply and demand, as well as due to differences in the relative cost of producing a particular commodity (Salvatore 1996). Another reason that cause international trade is driven by demand from the importing country. Definition of demand (Lipsey 1999) itself is the amount of a commodity to be purchased by households. Export demand means the number one export commodity demanded by a particular country.

A debt-to-limit ratio is used in the calculation of credit scores. It compares the amount of credit being used to the total credit available to the borrower. Having a low ratio — in other words, not much debt but a lot of available credit — is good for your credit score. Also known as a balance-to-limit ratio and credit utilization ratio.

Final Prediction #10: Apple will buy Dish Network

2016predictionsA third of the people who read this column don’t live in the USA so maybe this prediction isn’t interesting to them, but I think Apple will buy Dish Network, the American direct satellite TV broadcaster. It’s the only acquisition that will give Apple the kind of entry point they want into the TV business, allowing Cupertino to create overnight an over-the-top (OTT) Internet streaming video service — effectively an Internet cable system.

Buying Dish would be a bold move for Apple because all the benefits Cupertino seeks aren’t obviously available. True, Dish has 14 million U.S. subscribers (I am one of those) who get 100+ channels of TV from the sky. True, Dish […]

Prediction #8: Apple WILL NOT buy Time Warner

2016predictionsIf my last prediction about the Internet of Things becoming a security nightmare seemed a no-brainer to half of my readers, as some commenters suggested, this prediction that Apple won’t buy Time Warner will probably be a no-brainer for the other half, simply because it is always easier to say an acquisition or merger won’t happen than that it will. But I think there is something to be learned from why I don’t think this acquisition will take place — something that says a lot about Apple as a company.

That this topic comes up at all is because, as frequently happens these days, activist investors are trying to bully Time Warner into selling all […]

IBM loses its mind

I can’t find a lot of IBM products. Where are the servers? Where are the software products? Where are the storage products? Wow, its all gone or at least well hidden. The website has been completely replaced and only the CAMSS stuff is there.

Where, indeed, are the mainframes?

IBM is a completely sales-centric business.  It is really all about what IBM […]

Predictions #2 (and 3?): Microsoft and Apple hit walls

2016predictionsIt isn’t easy being huge as both Apple and Microsoft are starting to realize. Both companies are incredibly successful and I’m not here to say either is in real danger, but both are suffering major structural challenges that will hurt them in 2016. What’s key for these predictions is how they respond.

I’ll deal with Microsoft first because there the challenges and solutions are both clearer than they are with Apple. I’ve been very impressed with Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella who I think hasn’t saved the company, because it didn’t need saving, but he’s a real improvement over Steve Ballmer. Nadella has done the best he can to get Microsoft in order and reinvigorated, […]

It’s Michael Dell versus the world and Dell will win

In my last column I wrote that Dell buying EMC is a great idea (for Dell) and left it to this column to more fully explain why that is so. It takes two columns because there is so much going on here in terms of both business models and technologies. As the title suggests it comes down to Michael Dell against the world and in this case I predict Dell will win, Cisco, HP and IBM will lose, Apple will be relatively unaffected and I don’t really know what it will mean for Microsoft but I think the advantage still lies with Dell.

One thing that is key is every one of these companies except Dell is publicly traded […]

5 Things Crisis Text Line Learned By Going Global

There are a lot of ways to describe this year. For us here at Crisis Text Line, this was a year of infrastructure. Of scaling up so that we can better support those who are struggling. We expanded internationally, building platforms for our first full international launch in Canada, soft launch in the UK, and approval of new partners in Ireland and Australia.

With this growth came new challenges and new opportunities to learn. This year, we shared some of our learnings in an event called Successfest, a biannual in-office celebration meant to celebrate the big wins that propelled us forward as a company. The event is the twin to Failfest, which celebrates some of our biggest “fails” and what we’ve learned from them.

Here are five things we learned as an organization in 2018 that we hope can inspire empathy and innovation here at Crisis Text Line and in other social good organizations.

Clarity is key.

We’ve known for a long time that two-thirds of our conversations occur at night. And yet in our Crisis Counselor application, we weren’t asking about nighttime availability. A few months ago, we made some changes. We now ask people to explicitly outline how they could incorporate nighttime conversations into their lives. The impact? A 48% faster application completion rate and 21% training completion rate. Lesson? Be clear! When people know what you need, they’ll be more likely to give you what you want.

Speaking of asking for what we need: oh hey, we’re looking for night time Crisis Counselors. Check out our volunteer page to become one of our empathy MVPs.

Give people a reason to keep coming back.

The best way to keep people involved with your mission is to reward them. Show them how much you appreciate them. In order to do this, we created Levels. They’re a huge source of pride for our Crisis Counselors, with each level corresponding to a certain number of conversations taken.

Levels are a form of thanking our Crisis Counselors. Its an acknowledgment of amazing work completed. Personal milestones. They are self-paced, transparent, and available to everyone–just like levels of a game. We found that adding more levels and more transparency has increased retention among our newer Crisis Counselors by 42%.

Pivot quickly.

Few things are more fulfilling than seeing a project carried out from start to finish. However, if something isn’t working, switch it up. Moving in a new direction–or dropping a project completely–is not a failure, it’s learning. And it’s smart. In December we canceled a major initiative that we’d spent months planning. It was a hard decision–and the right move. We were able to recognize that it didn’t fit into what we were doing.

Real-time metrics to monitor the impact of decisions and daily health can help you make smart decisions–like a Fitbit counting your steps, and inspiring you to change your mind and take the stairs. Become comfortable with changing direction and thinking of it as opportunity seized.

Turn shortcomings into strengths.

You may not know how to do something. You might never have experienced it before. And yet that doesn’t mean that you can’t help. Your lack of knowledge may mean that you bring a unique perspective! It means every idea is new to you—yay! This is why having different people with different skill sets provides a wide array of perspectives. Questioning the accepted way of doing things is critical to figuring out the best way to do it, and sometimes that means thinking outside of the box.

We like have fresh faces and fresh ideas in the mix. Experience is awesome too. And combining them is kind of like putting chocolate and peanut butter together–two amazing things that taste so much better together.

Add personality to everything.

A lot of the work that we do here is serious. Mental health, suicide, crisis intervention; it would be easy for us to be solemn. We make a very conscious effort to add personality to every aspect of the organization. Whether it’s our products, communications, or visuals design, it’s crucial that our service feels friendly and familiar. We seek JOY. We like cute. And we appreciate laughter.

Find your organization’s personality, and stick to it.

Thanks to all of our friends, Crisis Counselors, and staff for supporting us this year. We’re excited to keep breaking boundaries in 2019!

Duck Rice @ Air Itam Wet Market, Penang

Hungry and not knowing where to get a decent midnight supper had always been a catastrophe for me. Fret not, head to Air Itam wet market and you shall see cars parked along the road, indicating the hungry predators are preying for the duck at the Air Itam wet market. Well, we meant prepared and braised ducks in this famous duck rice stall nested in the wet market but not wild or livestock ducks.

Be prepared to join the queue of duck predators which may last for 10 – 15 minutes, though the queue moves up pretty fast. Share with the humble uncle on your desired choice of dishes and the aunty will prepare for you within minutes. Variety of choices are available – braised duck or pork, braised soy sauce eggs, bean curds, intestines and picked Chinese mustard green aka “boey chai”

We opted for a plate of with mixture of braised duck and pork. Generally I disliked duck meat due to its unpleasant and unexplainable taste. However, the duck meat served here was totally great with the absence of the unpleasant taste, and the same applies to the lean pork meat we ordered as well. Both duck and pork meat were tendered and makes the total chewing process an enjoyment.

On top of that, ladles of soy sauce poured on the rice provided extra moisture to the rice, and the level of sweetness it added to the meat was just perfection. The crispy and aromatic deep fried onion flakes added smashing sensation to the meat, and garnishing with coriander leaves made the whole meal looked appealing. However, the chili comes a little bit watery for me though and lacking of the hot spiciness I was expecting.

Small bowl of pickled Chinese mustard green aka “boey chai” was indeed inferior in size comparing to the rice with plentiful duck and pork meat but it is exciting to savor the boey chai and its soup. Tasted nice and sweet, with a little bit sour and it was just nice.

Just another version of Nasi Itik Beratur….

Address: Air Itam wet market
Operation hour: 10:00pm – 2:00am or until finished (whichever comes first), open everyday and closed on unspecific days.

Hytera Releases Whitepaper of Radio Over Satellite Solutions

Source: The Critical Communications Review | Gert Jan Wolf editor

Hytera, together with its subsidiaries Norsat, have recently released a white paper to highlight the importance of radio over satellite solutions on a global scale.

Communication Challenges Faced by Industries

As communication requirements evolved drastically, it has become imperative to enhance connectivity between organizations, world-wide teams, and employees on the field. Radio communications play an essential role in this regard, especially in public safety, emergency rescue, firefighting, fleet operations and mining applications. Most radio networks use line of sight propagation or have fixed repeater stations.

When there is no radio network signal coverage on site, command center is not able to reach the personnel on site. In this case, the use of communications satellites as a communications repeater can provide a remote cross-territory transmission route for on-site radio network communications, to achieve voice, data, image transmission; improve the capacities of emergency handling, decision making, command and control, emergency linkage, resource allocation; and ensure full-time, all-area and all-weather communications.

Benefits of Radio Over Satellite Communication

Remote radio networks can be unified with fixed landlines, cellular systems, or Push-To-Talk (PTT) radios facilitating encrypted, real-time direct voice and data communications to headquarters, control centers or operations rooms. With the right systems engineering and technology partner, Radio Over Satellite solutions are easy to manage and deploy. They can be operated remotely and unattended after installation, making them perfect solutions for communication in uncertain environments.

Careful engineering is required to ensure audio quality, latency, jitter, and bandwidth of digital radio systems over satellite. Congestion and management of remote networks can be mitigated with careful planning, QOS, SLAs, TCP acceleration and bandwidth compression. Testing has also confirmed that there is no discernable degradation in audio quality using radio over satellite systems. Thorough planning and designing of network to maximize limited bandwidth usage and link budget are required for projects involving these applications.

As a global leading provider of Professional Mobile Radio (PMR) solutions, Hytera not only provides users with TETRA, DMR, PDT, LTE products and solutions, but also combines Norsat's rich experience in satellite communication to jointly offer the entire set of services from solution design to project installation. By making full use of the advantages of satellite communications, Hytera has established a reliable and stable radio communication network over satellite for business- and mission-critical users, supporting command and dispatch system services to meet the communication needs of daily operation and emergency response.

Crookston winter high school sports at (roughly) the midpoint

Jacob Shames
Crookston Times

After four weeks of the most unique winter sports season ever, and with only a few more weeks of regular-season play before playoffs begin, let's take a look at what's gone on so far on the Crookston High School sports scene.

Boys' basketball

Easton Tangquist leads the Crookston boys' basketball team in scoring this season.
  • Record: 1-8 (0-8 Section 8AA), 9th in Section 8AA North
  • Notable results: L 75-65 vs. Roseau (Jan. 19), W 68-39 vs. Climax-Fisher (Jan. 21), L 75-53 vs. Park Rapids (Feb. 2), L 83-46 vs. East Grand Forks (Feb. 12)
  • Leaders: senior Easton Tangquist (12.6 ppg), junior Jack Garmen (10.4 ppg), senior Carter Bruggeman (7.9 ppg), senior Jacob Miller (5.4 ppg), junior Brooks Butt (4.0 ppg)

So far: After a 1-2 start, Crookston has dropped its last six. Allowing 67.8 points per game, the Pirates' defense ranks last in Section 8AA, and their offense is just slightly better, ranking 17th out of 18 teams at 46.6 points on average. They've scored less than 40 points in over half their games.

Crookston has been hurt by a lack of size inside, and absences of key players over the last two weeks haven't helped, either. The backcourt of Easton Tangquist, Jack Garmen and Carter Bruggeman has fought hard to provide some semblance of scoring, but it hasn't come on a consistent basis.

What's next: The Pirates sit in last place in their division, but games against seventh-place Roseau (Feb. 18) and eighth-place Bagley (March 9) figure to be competitive. Win-E-Mac (Feb. 16), Fertile-Beltrami (Feb. 23) and Warroad (March 11) will be their most challenging remaining contests. With improved shooting, there's reason to believe that an experienced backcourt can keep Crookston somewhat afloat.

Quotable: "We've got some kids who can shoot it. Except the ones that I thought would shoot better didn't and the ones I wasn't sure of did." - coach Greg Garmen after the season opener

"We're not a big team, and we gotta have kids who go get boards. It's such a tall man's game, we're not very tall man-for-man, so it's gonna be a challenge." - Garmen after falling to Roseau

Girls' basketball

The Crookston girls' basketball team is off to a 7-2 start this season, with a win over defending Section 8AA champion Pelican Rapids on Feb. 6.
  • Record: 7-2 (6-2 Section 8AA), 1st in Section 8AA North
  • Notable results: W 73-29 vs. Roseau (Jan. 26), W 52-24 at East Grand Forks (Jan. 28), W 49-34 at Pelican Rapids (Feb. 6), L 44-37 at Fergus Falls (Feb. 12)
  • Leaders: senior Emma Borowicz (13.9 ppg), freshman Halle Winjum (11.9 ppg), junior Emma Osborn (8.3 ppg), junior Hayden Winjum (8.0 ppg), senior Emma Boll (5.6 ppg)

So far: With the second-best defense and fourth-best offense in Section 8AA, and one of the fiercest defenses in the entire state, the Pirates look like a bona fide contender for their first section crown since 2008. Emma Borowicz and Halle Winjum have the potential to explode for big scoring nights, Hayden Winjum's long arms key a stifling defense, Emma Osborn and Abby Borowicz provide shooting and Emma Boll has been tough down low.

For most of the season, the question with Crookston was the quality of its opposition, as it faced just two teams with winning records in its first seven games (and lost to one). Beating Pelican Rapids by 15 points on the road went a long, long way in answering that question, though.

What's next: Crookston has already acquitted itself well against Pelican Rapids and Fergus Falls, teams that squared off in the section title game last year, but the road ahead doesn't get any easier. Tuesday, the Pirates travel to unbeaten Stephen-Argyle, and they also have Perham (Feb. 25), Hawley (March 1) and Moorhead (March 8) on the schedule. There could be as many as seven legitimate threats for the section title this season, of which Crookston's only one.

Quotable: "We're starting to hit our stride a little bit on the offensive side, which we gotta continue to do. We pride ourselves, certainly, on the way that we play defense, and that's the first expectation. You gotta come out and you gotta get stops and try to disrupt what the other team is doing." - coach Darin Zimmerman after beating Roseau

"This team has all the makings of being a great team. We just gotta keep getting better every day." - Zimmerman after the win over Pelican Rapids

Boys' hockey

Jack Doda has scored 10 points in six games for the Crookston boys' hockey team.
  • Record: 1-5 (1-3 Section 8A), 9th in Section 8A
  • Notable results: L 7-5 at Kittson County Central (Jan. 19), L 8-3 at Thief River Falls (Jan. 28), W 4-2 at Lake of the Woods (Feb. 5)
  • Leaders: senior Kaleb Thingelstad (5 goals, 6 assists), sophomore Jack Doda (4 goals, 6 assists), sophomore Alex Longoria (4 goals, 3 assists), senior Noah Kiel (3 goals, 1 assist), senior Noah Dragseth (1-2, .908 save percentage, 39.7 saves per game)

So far: Say this for the Pirates: they might continue to lose more games than they win, but they're likely to be very entertaining about it. They nearly came back from a 5-0 deficit in their season opener, and they're averaging 3.2 goals per game — nearly as many as middle-of-the-pack teams Detroit Lakes and Thief River Falls, and more than Park Rapids and Lake of the Woods.

Crookston's work has been cut out for it this season, with a young nucleus and a thin roster, but the Pirates play a fast-paced style with flashes of real skill. Kaleb Thingelstad, Noah Kiel and Noah Dragseth have been strong veteran presences, and Jack Doda and Alex Longoria have continued to blossom.

What's next: The Pirates had to postpone last week's games against Kittson Central and Red Lake Falls due to being short on players. They'll face some tough competition ahead, with East Grand Forks on Feb. 23 and two games against Warroad, but they should have winnable games against Park Rapids (Feb. 25, March 11). The No. 7 seed in Section 8A figures to be attainable for them.

Quotable: "We have tons of offensive skill. We're going to be able to score goals. The question will be how strong we are defensively, and we have some work to do there." - coach Josh Hardy before the season

"I thought there was times that we looked really good tonight, and there was times where we looked overwhelmed. That's kind of to be expected at the beginning of the season, especially with the youth that we have." - Hardy after the loss to Bemidji

Girls' hockey

Senior Nora Peterson is tied for the team lead in scoring for the Crookston girls' hockey team.
  • Record: 4-6 (2-4 Section 8A), 4th in Section 8A
  • Notable results: L 14-0 at Warroad (Jan. 22), W 1-0 vs. East Grand Forks (Feb. 2), W 4-2 vs. Detroit Lakes (Feb. 6), L 3-1 at Thief River Falls (Feb. 11)
  • Leaders: freshman Reese Swanson (6 goals, 2 assists), senior Nora Peterson (4 goals, 4 assists), senior Kenze Epema (1 goal, 5 assists), freshman Brekken Tull (2 goals, 2 assists), sophomore Kailee Magsam (4-6, .849 save percentage, 18.5 saves per game)

So far: The Pirates have continued building on the positive strides they took last season, in which they won over 10 games for the first time since 2013. Seniors Nora Peterson, Catherine Tiedemann and Kenze Epema have been productive as usual, while young players such as Reese Swanson, Brekken Tull and Addie Fee have broken out and shown big-time flashes in their first varsity action.

Crookston likes to flex its substantial depth (it often rolls four lines and three defense pairings), along with an energetic and suffocating forecheck. This has helped the Pirates consistently outshoot their opponents, but they still have struggled on occasion to score right in front of the net, due to a combination of unlucky bounces and lack of strength.

What's next: Warroad is the runaway favorite to win Section 8A, and Thief River Falls is back in the drivers' seat for No. 2. But Crookston's proven to be competitive with everyone in the section sans the Warriors. That will be even more so if the Pirates' ability to create quality chances turns into goals more consistently (they're scoring just two per game, despite outshooting opponents 28.3-22.1 on average).

Quotable: "It's fun to be rewarded in the win column. You play well, you do a lot of things right, but you don't always see, you don't believe it sometimes that you're actually doing those things right when you aren't getting rewarded with wins." - coach Tim Moe after beating West Fargo United

"It's been a long time, and it feels good. I'm an East Grand Forks grad. I've known all those coaches for a long time, and a lot of the kids. I told the girls, this is the game that I've most wanted to get for the last four years since I came back. And to do it with the group of kids that we have — they work hard, they're resilient, this is a great group of kids." - Moe after the Pirates' first win over East Grand Forks in 19 tries

The Crookston dance team has competed four times this season, most recently in Detroit Lakes on Saturday, Feb. 13.

So far: While all of the other Crookston winter sports teams had to shut down altogether when Gov. Tim Walz announced a pause of activities in November, the Pirates' dancers were able to continue. They participated in practices over Zoom for over a month (albeit without their full team), before returning to the studio in-person in early January.

Crookston got its season underway in Hawley with a seventh-place finish in kick. With a young roster (eight seventh and eighth-graders, no seniors and only one junior), the Pirates have consistently recorded higher scores than in past years in both jazz and kick divisions.

What's next: The Pirates, who got to see how they stacked up against Class AA opponents in Detroit Lakes this past weekend, will compete in Frazee this Friday. They were scheduled to open their season there on Jan. 15 before the competition was cancelled. Saturday, they'll be in Blackduck for a non-competitive performance to cap off the regular season.

Quotable: "My expectation for this season is to keep our kick scores high, and our goal is placing in top five in kick by the end of the season. For jazz, I would like keep improving on our technique skills, and our goal is to score higher than we have in previous seasons." - coach Grace Espinosa before the season

"I am so proud of how they handled it. Seeing them hit the floor and getting as high of scores that they did was great to see." - Espinosa after the Pirates' first competition of the season

Zach Brown is off to an 18-2 start this season for the Crookston wrestling team.

So far: After sending five wrestlers to state in 2020, Crookston came in to this season with high expectations, but with a goal to improve as a dual team. So far, so good. The Pirates have won 14 of their first 20 duals, and have challenged themselves heavily with matches against state qualifiers Atwater-Cosmos-Grove City and Bertha-Hewitt/Verndale/Parkers Prairie, Badger/Greenbush-Middle River and West Central Area/Ashby/Brandon-Evansville, to name a few.

The Pirates have been a juggernaut at the lower weights, with Evin Trudeau, Nolan Dans, Carter Coauette, Ethan Bowman, Zach Brown, Braxton Volker and Cameron Weiland combining for a record of 104-21. Hunter Knutson and Ethan Boll have held down the fort up top. Young wrestlers like Spencer Ness, Layten Fuentes and Hunter Kresl have taken strides, too.

What's next: The tough competition will continue for Crookston, which will wrestle defending Class A champion Long Prairie-Grey Eagle/Browerville on Feb. 23 and face off against Class AA No. 9 Thief River Falls on Feb. 25. The Pirates are unquestionably in the top half of Section 8A, but their contender status will be put to the test with matchups against Fosston/Bagley (Feb. 18) and Frazee and United North Central (March 4).

Quotable: "We had a strong showing last year individually. We won some big duals, but we know that we can be a lot better team if we learn how to work together as a team and really put that as our focus." - Hanson before the season

"You have to be getting strong competition for your guys throughout the year to keep them pushing forward. ... I think it will be hopefully a motivation for our guys to help them understand, hey, you're there, but we didn't close the deal." - Hanson after the dual loss to BGMR

Click to Change - Encouragement for Today - December 18, 2013

Karen Ehman

December 18, 2013

Click to Change
Karen Ehman

"For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power [making it active, operative, energizing, and effective]; it is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating to the dividing line of the breath of life (soul) and [the immortal] spirit, and of joints and marrow [of the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and purposes of the heart." Hebrews 4:12 (AMP)

"Look, Miss Karen! When you click here you can change the color of her fingernail polish just like that!" I was watching my friend's pre-teen daughter for the weekend. She was parked on the couch playing around on a nail art website on my computer. Each time she clicked on a different color nail polish bottle the color instantly changed on the model's hands.

Clicking a mouse to change things on our computer screen is so simple. If only real life were the same!

Many times I look at my circumstances and wish I had a special mouse so I could click and change everything I don't like. But life's not like that. While there's much I can change, there's much more I can't.

And when I focus on all I can't revise, my heart can feel defeated. There are people I can't change, finances I can't control, and circumstances that leave my heart feeling shattered. If only I could recolor bad attitudes or rewrite difficult experiences, then I'd feel better. Right?

I've discovered that changing other people or circumstances isn't really a fix for my often-troubling situations because it isn't something I can make happen. I can't control other's behavior, only mine. Here is where the solution lies.

Even when circumstances and people stay the same, my attitude towards them and my perspective can change. What can bring about this transformation?

God's Word.

It can snap me back to attention, soften my heart and help me view my life through a different and God-honoring lens. It can align my heart and actions with God's so I don't do or say things today I will regret tomorrow. As Hebrews 4:12 states, it helps to expose, sift, analyze and judge the very thoughts and purposes of the heart.

In a very practical way, God's Word makes it all click and that clicking makes me change.

Spending time daily in the Bible is imperative to bringing about this change, and we at Proverbs 31 Ministries have committed to help women around the world interact with God's Word daily through our many ministry avenues. Just this past year God impacted the lives of over 600,000 women daily through our free Encouragement for Today devotions. We celebrated with over 4,000 women who made first time decisions for Christ, and our team responded to over 10,000 prayer requests.

It isn't just the volunteers and staff who get to be a part of helping bring God's transforming work. So does everyone who gives a financial gift — no matter the size — to Proverbs 31 Ministries.

We value every gift and giver. The ones who give hundreds ... the ones who go without lattes each month and share their saved $25 ... the ones who donate $5.

Yes, $5 makes a big impact.

Together, we offer perspective-changing truth that can renew a woman's heart and mind no matter what age or stage of life she's in.

Together, we point women to the Healer, made known on the pages of Scripture, who can make their spirits whole.

Together we can teach women how to study the Bible, forgive and mend a friendship, strengthen a marriage, or effectively parent children.

Do you want to change the world by offering hope, help, and even life from behind your computer screen? We'd love for you to join us. When we give our collective "littles," God transforms them into a big movement that can alter lives both now and for eternity.

With a click of your mouse, you help change the world.

We'd be honored if you would join us.

Dear Lord, thank You for the life-altering and perspective-changing power of Your holy Word. In Jesus' Name, Amen.

Use of asbestos

  • asbestos cement: used in shed or corrugated garage roofs, roofing tiles, eaves, gutters and water tanks
  • soft asbestos: used in pipe and boiler lagging
  • insulation board: used in fire-proof cladding, thermal insulation board and acoustic panels
  • sprayed coatings: used on soffits to communal walkways in blocks of flats and underground car parks for fire protection
  • miscellaneous: used in ironing boards, brake pads, textured paints, floor tiles and certain types of Calor gas portable heaters manufactured before 1976.

What are the hazards?

The mere physical presence of asbestos does not necessarily create a health risk. The risk arises from breathing microscopic asbestos fibres that are released through mishandling or in areas where the asbestos is subject to heavy wear.

Action to be taken

If asbestos material is in good order and repair - leave it alone! You are likely to create the potentially hazardous dust by attempting to remove the material. To reduce the risk of contamination we recommend the following:

  • seal and paint: prime asbestos sheets with an alkali-resistant primer then finish with emulsion or gloss paint. Do not scrape prior to painting
  • cover sheet asbestos with wallpaper fixed with a strong adhesive or with hardboard
  • seal and paint with a bitumastic paint such as Aquaseal or Synaprufe
  • seal with a PVA adhesive such as Unibond.

Do not attempt removal of:

  • soft asbestos
  • asbestos insulating board (similar to plaster board)
  • sprayed asbestos coating.

These should be dealt with by a professional stripping company licensed by the Health and Safety Executive.  The work must be undertaken in accordance to a strict code of practice involving the use of specialised equipment and protective clothing.

Removal of sheet asbestos (e.g. corrugated shed or garage roof)

Removal of asbestos cement products, which normally comprise 10-15% of asbestos removal, can be undertaken by the householder provided the following precautions are observed:

  • avoid breaking up small pieces by using hammers or dropping from heights into refuse skips
  • do not use power tools - hand tools only
  • undo hardware such as fixing bolts and screws and remove panels complete
  • thoroughly soak the material before starting work. You are advised to introduce a suitable wetting agent, such as washing-up liquid, into the water before saturation
  • stack the removed sheets in the open and cover with a plastic sheet. Small pieces should be soaked and swept into strong plastic sacks and sealed (no vacuum cleaning)
  • always work in well-ventilated areas
  • persons handling asbestos should wear washable over-clothing and should thoroughly wash bare skin on completion of the work. If removal is difficult and large pieces of asbestos need to be broken up, you are advised to hire clothing and equipment from a reliable hire shop (see the telephone directory) and wear a dust mask specified for asbestos dust.

Disposal of asbestos

Do not put asbestos waste in a wheelie bin or take it to the local authority civic amenities depot - asbestos disposal needs special measures.

You must contact the Corporation of London - Hazardous Waste Unit on 020 7332 3433 or email: You can also use their online application form.

The Hazardous Waste Service will collect up to 15 square metres of asbestos sheeting free of charge. This waste must be wrapped individually in thick polythene sheeting. Do not break the sheets to put into bags.

The service will collect broken asbestos that is bagged in sealed builders rubble bags. These must be easy to lift and carry by one person. Five half-filled bags will be collected free of charge.

If you have more than 15 square metres of sheeting or five half-filled bags please ring the Corporation of London - Hazardous Waste Unit for more information.

Dumped asbestos

Asbestos on private land is the owner’s responsibility to remove safety and correctly.  This is even if it has been dumped there. If you suspect that asbestos is dumped anywhere in the borough please report it as a fly tip via the online reporting form [on drop down menu select the type of fly tip and asbestos is an option].

Lay summary:
A randomized phase II trial of Hippocampal Sparing versus Conventional Whole Brain Radiotherapy after surgical resection or radiosurgery in favourable prognosis patients with 1-4 brain metastases
Design: HIPPO is a 1:1 randomised multicentre phase II study investigating Hippocampal Sparing Whole Brain Radiotherapy (HS-WBRT) versus standard Whole Brain Radiotherapy (WBRT) after neurosurgery or stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) in patients with 1-4 brain metastases. Patients are randomised 1-4 weeks from neurosurgery/SRS. The primary endpoint is the Hopkins Verbal Learning Test – Revised (HVLT-R) at 4 months from completion of radiotherapy, and a battery of other neurocognitive function (NCF) assessments make up the majority of the secondary endpoints.
Treatment: Patients receive 30 Gy in 10 fractions over 2 weeks as either HS-WBRT or standard WBRT, beginning 4-6 weeks from the date of neurosurgery/SRS. Patients are followed up for 2 years from the completion of radiotherapy at 2, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18 and 24 months. NCF is assessed at each time point except 9 and 18 months.
Key inclusion/exclusion criteria: Patients >16 years with brain metastases from a systemic malignancy which have been histologically confirmed. These must have been treated by neurosurgery or SRS. Patients must be able to complete the NCF test battery. Patients with metastases from small cell carcinoma from any site, haematological malignancy, or central nervous system malignancy are excluded.
Duration of recruitment: 3 years.
To determine whether HS-WBRT reduces decline in NCF compared to WBRT in patients with 1-4 brain metastases after neurosurgery or stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). HIPPO will also help to determine whether it is feasible to conduct a Phase III randomised trial of HS-WBRT in the UK.

Major Surgery

If you are facing major surgery, you should become fully informed of your benefits covering hospitals and surgery.

Also, if you have not already done so, you should make arrangements for financial matters such as power of attorney for health care, general power of attorney, a will, and designations of beneficiaries.

  • Use a network (PPO) hospital and doctor. You save money and paperwork using healthcare providers in the Aetna Choice POS II network.
    • The $200 copayment for inpatient hospital services is waived when a participating hospital and doctor.
    • Your out-of-pocket share of a covered service will not exceed 10% of the billed amount.
    • Covered services are paid at 100% once you've satisfied the annual coinsurance maximum ($2,300 individual/$4,600 family).
    • Your provider files your claim. As part of their contract, Aetna physicians, hospitals and providers handle the paperwork.
    • Your provider handles preadmission certification required by the health plan (see next).
  • Review the precertification requirements. All inpatient admissions, as well as many surgical procedures, must be precertified with the medical review agency. If precertification is not obtained and it is determined that the service was not medically necessary, then no benefits will be provided and you will be financially responsible for 100 percent of the related services. When you use a network provider, the precertification is handled by your provider. If a non-network provider is used, then you, the patient, or the provider must request precertification. (Learn more)
  • Review beneficiary designations. To change a life insurance beneficiary, complete a Change of Beneficiary form. If you are legally married and die before retirement, your spouse is automatically the beneficiary of your vested preretirement death benefit. This is true for the Carpenters Retirement Plan as well as the Carpenters Individual Account Pension Plan. If you are not legally married, you may designate any person as your beneficiary on your Enrollment Application or with a completed Change of Beneficiary form.

Other Considerations

There is a certain risk involved in walking out your front door and driving to work. There is undeniably higher risk in having a major surgery. While it is not beneficial to exaggerate the risks involved, it is recommended that prior to surgery, you prepare and/or review documents which would come into play in the event you die or become incapacitated. Here are the items which you may wish to update, revise, or consider prior to surgery:
