Q: Cannot get Angular Material flex to work for layout I have an Angular module which I refer in the index.html. The template file for the module is as follows:

      Other Flex part

The 2 divs should stack up in rows like -> div | div | div .However the divs just stack up in column.

A: I haven't used Angular Material before, but after taking a quick look at the docs, it seems like this should work:

      Other Flex part

I think the problem was that you are nesting a row inside of a row which causes only one column to render in the parent row since that is its only child.

Note:
I'm not sure where to use layout-fill.  Play around with it either on the row itself or on the columns you want to fill.
Also, this is invalid html:  ( tags are self closing).

A: Your code doesn't seem to have any issues in HTML ( besides img being a self closing tag)
Although I simplified your code a bit.
CODEPEN
angular.module('myApp', ['ngMaterial'])

          Other Flex part

hey

P.S. - Did you use ngMaterial in your angular.module?

Q: Working with JQuery inside apex:repeat or apex:pageBlockTable I have a code-piece like below where I need to check number of times my picklist values selected as Yes. If this is more than one or zero within this apex:repeat section, I need to show a validation error on UI using JQuery.
Note - AffiliationAccountList here contains more than 10 items every time for me.
<apex:repeat value="{!AffiliationAccountList}" var="mAff">
  ........
  <apex:selectList size="1" styleClass="pfClass"  label="Primary Affiliation" value="{!mAff.primaryAffiliation}">
    <apex:selectOptions value="{!OptionsYesNo}"></apex:selectOptions>
  </apex:selectList>
<apex:repeat>

JQuery used :
   var j$ = jQuery.noConflict();
   j$(document).ready(function(){
        j$('.pfClass').change(function(){
        alert('Last Name = ' +  j$('.pfClass').val());
        });
    });

I was trying to use class selector assuming there is no way to have a static/same id for my selectlist. Please suggest the best way to tackle this problem.

A: In your particular case you could get all elements with a particular value and count the number of objects returned:
function checkAffiliationLimit()
{
    if (jQuery('.pfClass[value="Yes"]').length > 10)
       //Display error
}

You could also use a closure and iterate over your items (leaving this here in case someone has a similar issue that can't use the first solution):
function checkAffiliationLimit()
{
    var numChecked = 0;
    jQuery('.pfClass').each(
        function()
        {
            if (this.val() == 'Yes')
                ++numChecked;
        }
    )
    if (numChecked > 10)
        //display error
}

In general, the ids of elements inside <apex:repeat> all end in their iteration number (0, 1, 2...), which may be useful if you need an element from a specific index.


Kanye West doesn't know how to do anything the typical way. After being charged with assaulting a paparazzi the quixotic rapper, producer and fashion maven was sentenced to two years of informal probation (he doesn't have to report to a probation officer) and 250 hours of community service. However, don't expect to see Yeezy digging ditches on the side of the road or picking up garbage.
Last November West was spotted speaking to design students at Harvard before a Yeezus tour stop in Boston.
There is no word if the students were required to provide Kanye with any croissants for his trouble.

Another Android SMS Virus in the Wild: Gazon
By Jeff Williams
Mar 7, 2015 00:14 EST
Well folks, it looks like another great deal just isn't as good as it seems. You know what they say, right? If it looks to good to be true, it probably is. So be on the lookout for yet another Android virus that spreads around via SMS, messaging as many contacts as it can.
Adaptive Mobile has uncovered Gazon, a virus that spreads by SMSing all of your contacts an enticing link.
Adaptive Mobile has recently reported that there is a malware ridden app that pretends to be an Amazon Rewards app, dubbed Gazon. Once installed it actually farms your contacts and then sends a message to each and every number stored in your phone contacts. This mechanism isn't new by any means, and there are certainly several such apps that exist in the wild. I even received a spam group message complete with a shortened link just the other day, presumably from one of the other pieces of SMS Android malware.
Gazon actually doesn't seem to send any data back to command and control systems, but instead continues to populate pages and links for which when you click, the author of Gazon earns money. So it's a more passive way to make money as opposed to just outright stealing of information.
Courtesy Sophos
While you're busy clicking on links and being redirected to all sorts of pages that certainly aren't an Amazon gift card, the malware is executing the following, so as to propagate itself to the rest of the world.
It primarily seems to be spreading through North America, though it's certainly made the rounds to the rest of the world. Theoretically this type of malware could propagate itself to a large population very quickly. But this particular piece seems to be limited somehow, perhaps even by the wariness of receiving unknown text messages.
The fact that there is no command and control or other heinous bits of code doesn't mean that such a virus can't be adapted to also harvest personal information for other purposes. So be on the lookout for fake reward type apps and just be sure that the author is the owner of the site for which you are promised a reward. Also, don't click on random weird and suspicious links coming from messages. In other words, browse smart!

I dunno, you wait hundreds of years for a herb-flavoured beer, and then two come along at once. Just coincidence, I'm sure, but two new beers (ales, strictly), from the Pilot brewery in Leith, Scotland, and the Ilkley brewery in Yorkshire, have been announced this week that go back to the pre-hop tradition of flavouring your drink with whatever herbs and plants you could find in the local fields, hedgerows and woods, or up on the local moors. I'm delighted to see them, because I love herb-flavoured ales. I have just one worry, as a historian.
Beer sommelier Jane Peyton supposedly gathering heather for her gruit ale for the Ilkley brewery – except that *ahem* the heather isn't in bloom and so wouldn't be that great for brewing with – and she'd need more than could be gathered with a pair of scissors.
Indeed, the "gruit" tradition (Grute in German) on the Continent was very different from anything we had in Britain, in that it involved the sale of the herbal flavourings by the state or its representatives to the brewers, as a revenue-gathering exercise. In those areas where this happened, it seems to have been compulsory for brewers to use gruit.
In Britain, on the other hand, there is a great deal to suggest that much, if not most medieval ale (using the word in its original sense of "unhopped malt liquor") was brewed without herbs, as well as without hops: to give just one piece of evidence, in 1483 (the year Richard III seized the throne), London's ale brewers, who were trying to maintain the difference between (unhopped) ale and (hopped) beer, persuaded the authorities to state that for ale to be brewed in "the good and holesome manner of bruying of ale of old tyme used", no one should "put in any ale or licour [water] whereof ale shal be made or in the wirkyng and bruying of any maner of ale any hoppes, herbes or other like thing but only licour, malt and yeste." So: London ale in the Middle Ages – no hops, no herbs.
You know you're a historic beer geek when … well, certainly when you immediately recognise a drawing of the plant bog myrtle on a bottle among the crammed shelves at Utobeer in Borough Market.
The name of the beer, Gageleer, from the Flemish word for the bog myrtle or sweet gale bush, gagel, confirmed what I had guessed from my initial glimpse: this was a Belgian brew flavoured with what was probably the most important plant used in pre-hop ales, Myrica gale, the heavily-scented heathland shrub that grows in wetlands throughout the British Isles, called gagellan in Old English, and also known as piment royale in French, Porst in German and pors in the Scandinavian languages.

By reducing immune function, trace metal deficiencies may substantially contribute to the global burden of diarrhea, pneumonia, and malaria. Human activities may be contributing to trace metal deficiency in soils and plants by exacerbating the preponderance of cereals and cash crops that reduce food diversity and micronutrient intake. Adaptive strategies are needed to reverse these trends. Anthropogenic activities have led to increased toxic metal exposure, and effects on human hosts need clarification. Metal toxicities can also impair the immune system and hence increase the susceptibility to infectious pathogens. Climate change affects metal speciation and the build-up of trace elements in the human food chain, with as yet unknown outcomes on infectious disease. Food processing and the use of metallic nanomaterials can alter human exposure to metals in ways that can influence the host–pathogen competition for metals. The effects of metals on human health may also be mediated through modification of the epigenome, conferring drug resistance on pathogenic bacteria and enhancing/ reducing human tolerance to infectious parasites. The emerging metals cerium, gadolinium, lanthanum, and yttrium constitute another driver of change in metal exposure and may potentially modulate the immune system with unknown consequences for human health.Less

This introductory chapter describes the book's aim to attempt to recognize food and agriculture as significant factors in Britain during the 1930s, not as elements standing apart from identified major issues. They also deserve to be part of the historical discourse. The relationship between food, agriculture and rearmament should be analysed as important in its own right because it provides additional insights into the decade. The end goal is to add to the understanding of the relationship between food production, processing, distribution, and consumption on the one hand, and rearmament as broadly conceived on the other. Knowing how the government planned to handle food and agriculture if war should break out as well as the extent to which the public was informed about these plans, should broaden the appreciation of many issues Britain faced in the 1930s.Less

The production of milk and pork was both a problem and an opportunity for the Soviet Union. The rebirth in the production of these products is best represented in the introduction of tushonka, a pork product. With the restructuring of fields and farms to accommodate newly-instituted forms of socialist production, existing kitchens and shops also evolved. This chapter looks at developments instituted in the food processing and distribution sectors in the Soviet Union. It also notes how the Second World War changed patterns of consumption and availability of meat products in the state, and how canned foods became essential during this period. The demand for canned pork from the United States increased during the war and this resulted in a severe food shortage.Less

Popularized by Michael Pollan in his best-selling In Defense of Food, this book's concept of nutritionism refers to the reductive understanding of nutrients as the key indicators of healthy food—an approach that has dominated nutrition science, dietary advice, and food marketing. The book argues this ideology has narrowed and in some cases distorted our appreciation of food quality, such that even highly processed foods may be perceived as healthful depending on their content of "good" or "bad" nutrients. Investigating the butter versus margarine debate, the battle between low-fat, low-carb, and other weight-loss diets, and the food industry's strategic promotion of nutritionally enhanced foods, the book reveals the scientific, social, and economic factors driving our modern fascination with nutrition. The book develops an original framework and terminology for analyzing the characteristics and consequences of nutritionism since the late nineteenth century. It begins with the era of quantification, in which the idea of protective nutrients, caloric reductionism, and vitamins' curative effects took shape. It follows with the era of good and bad nutritionism, which set nutricentric dietary guidelines and defined the parameters of unhealthy nutrients; and concludes with our current era of functional nutritionism, in which the focus has shifted to targeted nutrients, superfoods, and optimal diets. The book ultimately shows how nutritionism has aligned the demands and perceived needs of consumers with the commercial interests of food manufacturers and corporations. It also offers an alternative paradigm for assessing the healthfulness of foods-the food quality paradigm—that privileges food production and processing quality, cultural—traditional knowledge, and sensual-practical experience, and promotes less reductive forms of nutrition research and dietary advice.Less

In recent decades, a growing portion of the world's population has adopted a diet in which increasing calories come from foods high in fat, sugar, and salt that is highly processed by industrial food companies. These ultra-processed products have become the primary determinants of the rising burden of diet-related diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, and stroke, now the world's leading killers. This chapter shows how food retailers, restaurant and fast food chains, food manufacturers, and agricultural producers have changed in response to changes in capitalism to make the ultra-processed diet the global norm. The agricultural production for these products is also a leading cause of climate change. The chapter further describes an emerging yet uncoordinated popular response that includes farmers and food workers, consumer cooperatives, local governments, and food justice activists that are seeking alternatives strategies for making healthy food affordable to all.Less

This chapter discusses the tensions that have developed between Japan and China as a result of economic interdependence between both countries, particularly in matters regarding food safety and production. Japan depends on Chinese farmers and joint food-processing ventures to feed its people. As well, China's share of Japan's food imports has grown as the U.S. share has dropped. In addition, Japanese consumers' preferences have shifted to less expensive and processed foods, creating more incentive for Japanese food-processing companies to shift their operations to China. Consequently, China has become "Japan's kitchen" as both cost and convenience have changed the way Japanese people eat, with Japan depending more heavily on, and competing more intensely with, China for access to food. Continued Chinese concerns about food safety, and even Japanese consumers' shaken confidence in their own rice, has reinforced Japan's dependence on China as a location for enhanced food production.Less

The organic foods market's growth has fueled the efforts of activist groups who reassert transformative understandings of organic farming. This chapter discusses how activists frame market growth and convergence as a corporate takeover of the organic foods sector. It explains how this frame provides a means to link specific regulatory issues, including those related to synthetic ingredients, antibiotics, livestock management, and others to the larger issue of organic integrity. It identifies specific obstacles that activists face when they try to influence the federal organic regulations, and it also discusses how they use this frame to mobilize consumers to participate in boycott campaigns.

The Politics of Organic Integrity : Reasserting Transformative Ideals from the Margins
The organic foods market's growth has fueled the efforts of activist groups who reassert transformative understandings of organic farming. This chapter discusses how activists frame market growth and convergence as a corporate takeover of the organic foods sector. It explains how this frame provides a means to link specific regulatory issues, including those related to synthetic ingredients, antibiotics, livestock management, and others to the larger issue of organic integrity. It identifies specific obstacles that activists face when they try to influence the federal organic regulations, and it also discusses how they use this frame to mobilize consumers to participate in boycott campaigns. Finally, it describes an alternative, less contentious response to market growth and convergence: the decision of some small-scale farmers to exit the sector and organize alternative certification programs that go "beyond organic."

This chapter explains how beavers select their food. Direct observation of the beavers' feeding behavior shows that they consume much nonwoody vegetation that leaves little trace. Aside from trees, beavers eat grasses and forbs on land and aquatic vegetation in the pond or at the lake bottom. Beavers are "central place foragers": from the lodge where they live, they venture out in all directions to cut plants. They forage at greater distances upstream from their main lodge than downstream. This chapter discusses the range of plants eaten by beavers and where they harvest trees, their food choice and feeding behavior, seasonal changes of food preferences, food conditioning, food caches, and food processing. It also considers cafeteria-style food choice experiments that are conducted to test how beavers respond to food provided at their pond's edge.Less

During the postwar period, disputes about food allergy were framed on competing ideologies, one rooted in the emerging environmental movement and concerns about processed foods and food chemicals, and the other centered on the mid-twentieth-century fascination with psychosomatic medicine and Freudian psychoanalysis. In order to understand the impact of both of these models of allergic disease, this chapter concentrates on how the relationship between mental illness and food allergy was variously depicted by food allergists and psychoanalytically oriented allergists. The resulting divisions split the allergy community and, indeed, led many food allergists to abandon both the field—and the concept—of allergy altogether and turn instead to a new discipline: clinical ecology.Less

At a time when North Carolina's population is exploding and its economy is shifting profoundly, this book applies economics tools to chronicle these changes and to inform North Carolinians what to expect in the future. It explains that we are today living in a technologically connected age that has completely transformed the North Carolina economy. Once driven by tobacco, textiles, and furniture, the North Carolina economy now thrives on technology, pharmaceuticals, finance, food processing, and the manufacture of vehicle parts. While the state as a whole has benefited from these dramatic transformations, some population groups and regions have not experienced consistent economic growth. The book identifies education as the key factor; a skilled, college-educated work force, it argues, is now a region's most prized commodity. The book traces how the forces of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries have remade the North Carolina economy, impacted people and regions, and led to the most substantive public policy debates in decades.Less

This chapter takes a look at the energetically based food web processes that can explain the observed relationship between net primary productivity and species diversity. It looks first at independent models of trophic dynamics, and next presents both theory and empirical evidence that the number of consumer species increases as the number of food chains within a community increases. This brings forth the conclusion that species diversity is influenced by both the rate and diversity of production. Through the study of productivity, the energetic efficiencies of consumers, habitat heterogeneity, and the frequency of disturbance, certain hypotheses have been derived to explain patterns in trophic structure and species richness at local, regional, and global scales. The chapter argues, then, that this richness of species is a function of how the rate of production and the diversity of production affect trophic structure, community organization, and patterns of energy utilization in species.Less

This book concerns the broad theme of globalization and labour, particularly female labour, and applies the 'labour geography' approach to examine contemporary forms of labour control, conflict, and response under a globalization regime in Kerala state in India, through four diverse in-depth empirical case studies set in this state. This book concentrates on the transforming nature of work under capitalism, and has three interrelated aims: (a) to identify the myriad forms of globalization, as against casting it as a monolith; (b) to perceive workers as active social agents rather than as passive subjects; and (c) to reflect on local discourses of globalization and related issues. Kerala has been chosen as the setting because the state's labour scenario has dramatically changed, especially in the second half of the twentieth century. While constructing a collage of certain contemporary trends in Kerala's labour market, this book moves away from the approaches prescribed by economic orthodoxy and borrows from sociological, anthropological, and partly from ethnographic approaches. A geographic perspective allows us to appreciate local variability and uneven development in the labour market, and to chart the complex landscape in which contemporary workers live, work, and struggle. The four distinct, theoretically-driven case studies also help in bringing out the role played by various seemingly unlikely actors in the labour market. Questioning global stereotypes, the book argues that labour becomes actively involved in the very process of globalization and the expansion of capital.Less

Agriculture remains a key sector of the Tanzanian economy, accounting for about 30 per cent of GDP and nearly three-fourths of employment, but the sector has low measured productivity, and rates of productivity growth appear to be low. In the past, Tanzania's agricultural policies have focused heavily on increasing production at the farm level—whether through collectivization in the early postcolonial period or through smallholder systems, in the more recent era of Kilimo Kwanza. By contrast, this chapter suggests that there may be potential for alternative policies that emphasize the development of rural–urban links and domestic value chains to meet emerging urban demand. At the moment, urban food needs are met in large part through imports of processed and semi-processed foods. With appropriate development of the processing, packaging, distribution, and retailing systems, Tanzania could open new pathways for agricultural development.Less

During World War II, FTA Local 78 used union organizing campaigns among citrus workers in California's Imperial and Central Valley to demand that the NLRB replace pledge cards with sworn testimony as evidence of union support. San Francisco NLRB attorneys debated these ideas during the war, and in 1944 the Board called elections for citrus workers in Porterville based on the sworn testimony of Local 78 organizers. The Board soon exempted canning firms with short packing seasons from the NLRB's recently fixed standard of pledge cards. Local 78 and officials in NLRB field offices convinced the Board in Washington to unsettle the agency's previous requirement for pledge cards in the canneries. Local 78 made procedural arguments that changed the architecture of the state for food processing workers.Less

Oral diseases are often called a neglected or silent epidemic. They are largely due to social injustice in which private wealth overrides the public's health. Although oral diseases affect almost everyone, prevention of them and access to dental services have not been high priorities in the United States. This chapter, after defining oral health, describes the neglected epidemic of oral diseases and then discusses the roles that the food and tobacco industries play in contributing to oral disease and poor oral health. Although organized dentistry has done much to improve oral health, it also has limited access to dental care for millions of Americans. The chapter discusses health literacy and social inequality, national issues concerning oral health, state and local issues, school programs, the dental public health infrastructure, and the dental workforce. It discusses what needs to be done. A text box addresses oral health in low- and middle-income countries.Less

This chapter discusses the incremental improvements of Dublin in luminosity. The chapter notes that the Irish capital entered the age of gas lighting in the 1820s (although Dublin in 1825 was ahead of most big cities outside Britain), and gas installation was underway in Drogheda, Cork, Waterford and Limerick's Newtown Pery. But as high streets became brighter, many houses in older neighbourhoods, particularly in the southern cities, were darkened. The chapter examines its specific cause — the window tax, an old and unpopular levy in England, which had been introduced into Ireland in 1799 as a wartime measure. It then turns to analyze post-war complaints about taxation, and highlight the most tangible legacy of the post-war crisis in Dublin — the Mendicity Institution, which established to document, clothe, feed and employ able-bodied beggars on the capital's streets. The chapter illustrates the Irish manufacture of cotton, and the economic future of southern and western cities in terms of food processing and alcohol production.Less

Here's some great news: Philanthropy is growing in the corporate sector.
Although gifts from individuals still outpace those from businesses, many local and national nonprofits have seen an increase in corporate giving year to year. Corporate giving nationally increased by 8 percent in 2017, according to digital marketing firm Nonprofits Source. This is cause for celebration and gratitude in the Ozarks, where more than 2,600 nonprofits in Greene County strive to serve those in need. The increase includes cash and in-kind gifts.
Several nonprofits, such as Convoy of Hope, Ozarks Food Harvest and Habitat for Humanity, receive in-kind donations of food, clothing, building materials and other items for distribution to families and individuals in need. In 2016, Ozarks Food Harvest received over $25 million in grocery donations, while Convoy of Hope received noncash contributions valued at $107 million and, in line with national corporate giving, the organization exceeded $116 million in 2017, according to financial reports.
Oftentimes, gifts-in-kind are overstocked items that businesses no longer want to keep in inventory. Donating excess goods to a nonprofit makes good business sense for the corporation and helps the nonprofit provide more people with the things they need. The nonprofit applies market value to the goods, which helps reduce overhead. Gifts-in-kind are an excellent way for businesses to reduce waste, while helping others.
How do businesses decide who will receive their charitable dollars? Nearly every company requires that the nonprofit is recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. Many companies want to see evidence that their donations are making an impact.
Many businesses want to help those in their community. One local business I talked with said they focus on supporting nonprofits that serve needs right here in our community, as that aligns with their company mission statement.
Selecting nonprofits with a mission that closely matches the corporate mission reinforces the mission message, while building brand awareness and goodwill in the community.
Often a business solicits suggestions from their clients and employees. Giving a voice to those involved with your company creates a sense of engagement and appreciation. Companies frequently take their giving a step further by developing volunteer opportunities. More than 85 percent of companies think their employees want them to offer volunteer opportunities with nonprofits and some offer paid time off for these activities, according to Nonprofits Source.
Employees who volunteer together have the opportunity to build relationships with co-workers, improve leadership abilities and enhance their skill sets. Giving to the community fosters a spirit of camaraderie, gratitude and generosity.
All companies want to feel appreciated. They want to know they are making a difference in the future. Volunteer events allow them to see the results first-hand. United Way's annual Day of Caring is a great place to start.
If you would like to volunteer more frequently, go to VolunteerOzarks.com.
Volunteering to help others increases feelings of gratefulness and connects you to people outside your circle of friends and colleagues.
Studies show that people who practice positivity and gratitude are happier and healthier. They reach more of their goals, are more collaborative and live longer. We develop a grateful attitude by increasing the amount of time we spend thinking about the things and people we are thankful for and performing acts of gratitude, which naturally leads to thinking about others. We experience better relationships when we live gratefully.
Find a way for your business to engage with nonprofits and see the level of gratitude rise among employees. Gratitude is good for business, energizing for employees and empowering for the Ozarks.

The Maxima Steel Bases are modeled around the popular Weaver design, which is one of the strongest and most versatile mounting systems available today. The low profile of the Maxima Steel Bases give your firearm a sleek look. When used in conjunction with Warne Maxima QD Rings, the shooter is able to utilize the open sights by looking over the top of the bases without sacrificing the normal shooting position behind the firearm.
Maxima Bases also offer a full width recoil slot in each base. This feature allows the recoil control keys of Warne Rings to attain maximum bearing surface.
Low profile design allows use of iron sights when optics are removed.
Full width and depth recoil slots provide maximum bearing surface for recoil key engagement.
Bases securely mount to your firearm with Torx-style T-15 socket cap screws, 25 in/lb. of torque is recommended.
Visually inspect your firearm's receiver for burrs around the screw holes and remove if necessary. Remove all oil and grease from the holes in the receiver, the base screws and contact surfaces. Place the scope mount base(s) on the receiver. Check for proper fit and alignment. Using a T-15 wrench (supplied with WARNE rings) loosely install the supplied Torx 15 screws. If base(s) fit properly, firmly tighten screws.* WARNE recommends 25 in/lb torque. *WARNE recommends the use of a REMOVABLE thread locking compound for best results.

An MD/PhD student was comparing sleep patterns in different age groups. What is expected to be the different about sleep as a function of age?
A. Non-REM sleep occupies about 50% of total sleep in young adults and falls to about 20% in the elderly.
B. Young adults experience about 4–6 episodes of REM sleep each night, and infants experience about 5–10 episodes of REM each night.
C. REM sleep occupies about 80% of total sleep in full-term infants and falls to about 20% in the elderly.
D. REM sleep occupies about 80% of total sleep in premature infants and falls until it plateaus at about 25% in adults.
E. In a typical night, a young adult spends 70–100 min in stages 3 and 4 of non-REM sleep, whereas a child spends only about 30 min in these stages of deep sleep.
An MD/PhD student was studying the role of thalamocortical pathways in control of arousal. He was preparing his thesis proposal and included the following information on the two major types of thalamic projections to the cortex.

Dr. Thomas Payne, professor of otolaryngology and communicative sciences and director of the ACT Center for Tobacco Treatment, Education and Research, explains how an e-cigarette in the shape of a flash drive is used.
Published on Thursday, September 26, 2019

If you have somehow managed to avoid news related to electronic cigarettes and vaping for the past month, your run of good fortune has ended.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported 530 cases of e-cigarette related lung-illness hospitalizations nationwide with seven deaths. At least three states have limited their sale and the White House is looking for ways to ban the products.
So beside this flurry of news, what do we actually know about the health risks posed by e-cigarettes? Nowhere near enough, says Dr. Thomas Payne of the University of Mississippi Medical Center.
"We are still missing important evidence," said Payne, professor of otolaryngology and communicative sciences and director the ACT Center for Tobacco Treatment, Education and Research.
By nature of their design, "The use of all current electronic cigarettes appear to be associated with significant health risks," Payne said. That's because e-cigarettes work by heating liquids that serve as a vehicle to deliver nicotine and flavors to the user. These compounds, typically propylene glycol and glycerol, are FDA-approved.
"However, once you heat these compounds, they change, and those byproducts are not FDA approved for human consumption," Payne said. "They produce volatile organic compounds including various aldehydes like formaldehyde and acrolein, which we know from other research increase the risk for cardiovascular disease and certain cancers.
"Damage can directly to our lungs, as well as other organs," Payne said.
Dr. John Spurzem, professor of medicine and division chief for pulmonology, also notes that many of the vaping-related illnesses involve e-liquids containing vitamin E oil.
Spurzem
"Inhaling any oil is a bad idea. It's very toxic and can cause acute lung injuries or lipoid pneumonia as a result of oil getting in the lungs," Spurzem said.
Furthermore, there are about 7,000 unique flavors of e-liquid on the market, each with their own unique chemical composition.
"And when you heat these flavors, their chemistry changes as well," Payne said. "I doubt scientists have studied more than 30 of them at this point."
Until 2016, the Food and Drug Administration had no regulatory authority over the components of electronic cigarettes and related devices, and products introduced to the market prior to then are not subject to the same regulations.
Payne and other researchers at UMMC are part of the American Heart Association Tobacco Research and Addiction Center, or A-TRAC. Refunded by the National Institutes of Health and the Food and Drug Administration in 2018, the group is studying the perceptions and attitudes surrounding vaping, the chemicals in vaping products and the cardiovascular disease risks they pose.
Other groups are studying CVD risk as well. Some of the "most damning evidence" against e-cigarette use to date, Payne said, comes from a University of California San Francisco study of 70,000 people. Researchers there showed that daily e-cigarette use was associated with a doubled risk of heart attack compared to non-users. People who used both traditional and e-cigarettes saw their risk increase five-fold.
"If we understand the effects of these devices and their use, we can begin to curtail their use through changes in regulatory policy," Payne said.
Some states are already setting policy. Michigan, New York and Massachusetts have limited sales of e-cigarettes products in various ways in the past month.
"This should be a federal law," Payne said in regards to Michigan's decision to ban the sale of flavored vaping products. "In 2010, the United States passed a law banning flavored cigarettes, except for menthol. This contributed to the youth cigarette smoking prevalence."
E-cigarettes come in many shapes and can resemble common items from a pen to a flash drive.
Payne thinks the introduction of flavored vaping products could get a new generation addicted to nicotine. The New England Journal of Medicine reports that about 1 in 9 12th-graders vape near daily. A quarter have vaped in the past month, a proportion that has more than doubled since 2017.
While young people prefer to vape sweet flavors, while adults tend to go for unflavored, menthol, or tobacco-flavored e-liquids. Adult use of electronic cigarettes often centers on an effort to quit traditional smoking, but there is limited evidence that this actually works.
"The data show that using e-cigarettes is about as successful as a cold-turkey approach," Payne said, citing both clinical trials and observational studies of smoking cessation using the products. "The most successful interventions include working with a trained counselor and the use of an approved pharmacotherapy," Payne said, such as nicotine patches and gums, or Zyban and Chantix, two prescription drugs on the market indicated for smoking cessation.
Spurzem also discourages the use of e-cigarettes as a quitting tool, but warns especially against using bootleg vaping products.
"Do not buy these products off the street, because you have no idea what they contain," he said.
As of Sept. 26, the Mississippi State Department of Health has reported three cases of vaping-related lung illness and one death statewide, all in young adults.
"This is a very serious concern, and one that is unfolding every day," said MSDH State Epidemiologist Dr. Paul Byers in a press release. "While we know that many of the cases in the US report vaping cannabis products, such as tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), some have reported only vaping nicotine products."
There is still a lot that we don't know about what is making these people sick. No specific product such as the device, liquid, refill pods or cartridge has been clearly identified as the cause," Byers said.
"The key takeaway here is that there is nothing to suggest that electronic cigarette use has any substantial benefit, and the vast majority of evidence we do have so far suggests that there are significant risks associated with electronic cigarettes," Payne said.
"Based on what we know so far, they really need to go away."


Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri has revealed a shocking statement by stating that Victor Moses and Danny Drinkwater are deemed surplus at the club as they do not fit his style of play. This news could mean that both misfits Moses and Drinkwater could be set for leaving Stamford Bridge as soon as the winter transfer window in January.
Ever since Maurizio Sarri took over as Chelsea boss back in the summer, the club has not lost any game except the Community Shield against Pep Guardiola's Manchester City before the start of the actual campaign.
The Italian mastermind has transformed the club implementing his style and philosophy on the players and his impressive football has caught the eye of many football fans. Chelsea is also showing that they can be serious title contenders this season as they sit 2nd on the Premier League table at the moment, just two points behind leaders Manchester City.
Despite all the positives at the club, there are two players that Sarri is not quite pleased with as their characteristics do not suit his style of play. It's strange to believe that midfielder Danny Drinkwater and Victor Moses are the two superstars who are unable to get a kick in Sarri's first team.
Drinkwater has had offers from clubs across England to move on loan and there were more than just West Ham United keen on the Englishman's services. The Blues will be hoping to sell Drinkwater on a permanent deal instead rather than send him on loan for a temporary period.
Surely, there will be quite a number of suitors from England and other European countries for Moses and Drinkwater in the winter transfer window, as Chelsea look to cut short their squad.

Here are two terrible fabric jokes. Does anyone have any better ones?
"Go ahead … you'll be sari."
"Only one kiss per yard, " replied the smirking male clerk.
(That one must be ancient; when's the last time you saw a department store with a fabric counter? From here).
Please tell me some of you have better ones. You can leave 'em in the comments.
The Bon Marche in downtown Seattle (Which is now Macy's) had a fabric counter into the 1980's…I can't remember if Frederick's did (they are now completely shut down, Nordstrom's Flagship now occupies that block)…I don't have any fabric jokes, sorry, I wish I did!
Um…Two silkworms decided to have a race. It resulted in a tie.
They have fabric in ballentynes in Christchurch! They even have that one you always talk about… Liberty I think. They have that there. It was purely exciting because of it's association with this blog. Of course, you can buy silk cheaper than you can buy that cotton so I didn't look long but it was exciting all the same.
Hi,I had the pleasure of living in England up to a few months ago and I can happily report that the Selfridges' chain (large department stores on the downtown high streets of most larger British cities) all have great fabric departments. Unfortunately everything is priced in pounds so all of us whose companies paid us in dollars had to pay twice as much. For the record, these British stores are a bit like time travel to a more elegant era since they also had dedicated glove counters, millenry departments, and alterations shops where even off the rack dresses could be custom fitted. I loved it.
Susanelle, you joke is still mamking me giggle.
El Corte Ingles, a high end department store in all the larger cities in Spain has an equally high end large fabric department. Of course in the downtown Madrid store the fabric department was directly across from the La Perla display. Thus my first hint that I couldn't afford anything there. But the fabrics were exquisite.
About 3 years ago, The Bay in downtown Vancouver BC still had a fabric department. It was a franchise called "Fanny's Fabrics". Sadly, Fanny's has gone out of business and The Bay has other stuff in the section where the fabric store was.That girl doesn't have to run to India to be "sari"; she can come to Fraser street in Vancouver!
This may be an old joke, but I got a good laugh out of it!
I love the silkworm joke, thanks!I was in Tokyo recently and I can tell you that the department stores there – Yuzawaya, Isetan and Takashimaya – all have fabric departments. Yuzawaya at Kichijoji is incredible, with three floors of fabrics and crafts.
I always liked this bit from the TV show Night Court (paraphrased a bit):Judge to woman: Wow, that's a nice jacket! Is it felt? *Reaches out and touches woman's arm.*Woman: No.Judge: It is now!
Hee hee! Just reminded me that I left my sari in Texas:( It's red and gold and very pretty!
