What led to Wichita State's 32-point loss to Oklahoma
Evan Pflugradt, Sports Editor|December 12, 2018

Wichita State guard Dexter Dennis gets fouled during their game against the University of Oklahoma at Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City on Dec. 8, 2018.
To say Wichita State struggled offensively against Oklahoma would be an understatement.
The Shockers shot 24 percent from the field. They missed 22 threes, and shot 18 percent from deep
While posting its worst shooting percentages in 21 years, WSU scored just 48 points against a team that was picked to finish second-to-last in Big 12 media polls.
Wichita State guard Erik Stevenson drives the basket during their game against the University of Oklahoma at Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City on Dec. 8, 2018.
"We calculated that we took 14 three-pointers with our toes on the NBA three-point line or behind the NBA three-point line," WSU Head Coach Gregg Marshall said. "Many of these are by some guys who aren't shooting great percentages or even decent percentages.
"Some of them from guys who haven't hit a three-pointer all year long."
Marshall said his biggest error was not telling players to think about the NBA three-point line at Chesapeake Energy Arena, home of the Oklahoma City Thunder. NCAA three-point lines were marked on the court.
NBA three-pointers are shot from 23-feet and 9 inches out from the basket, and NCAA three-pointers are shot from 20-feet and 9 inches out.
"We elected to show the world that we could hoist one from behind the three-point NBA line with no chance of going in," Marshall said. "We were horrendous in our execution. Horrendous."
The Shockers had five assists and 15 turnovers, combining for its worst assist-to-turnover ratio of the season. Samajae Haynes-Jones was held to two points on 0-9 shooting. He had a 0-2 assist-to-turnover ratio for the Shockers. Dexter Dennis was scoreless on six missed shots.

Erik Stevenson, who has averaged above 50 percent from the field in the three true home games this season, was scoreless on five missed shots.
In the second half against Oklahoma, WSU had just six made field goals from five different players. Forward Jaime Echenique had the only second-half three-pointer for the Shockers.
Wichita State guard Ricky Torres makes a pass during their game at Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City on Dec. 8, 2018.
"We need to share the ball, but we've got to try and break the defense down and get to the paint, either by the pass or the drive, to get the defense to contract and find the open player," Marshall said. "In the second half our inability to make a basket started to affect us on the defensive end.
"We basically stopped competing on the boards, stopped competing on the defensive end, and that's your result."

Putting the pieces together
Teaching in Kenya inspires graduate studies in Educational Foundations
Ask Harriet Johnston about her experiences living and teaching in Kenya, and she's happy to tell you about her accomplishments, but she's equally quick to add that she doesn't want to take credit for all her hard work. Instead, she'll tell you about all of the other teachers and community educators who were involved in the projects that she worked on and helped to launch. We hint that she's returned from her two years abroad with a pronounced Canadian attitude, and she just laughs.
"It sounds like a lot," she says, "but I really just helped put the pieces together."
These pieces include a program that helps private school students to better understand the community outside their gated Kenyan school, while also helping girls and women in that community to attend school when they otherwise could not.
Today, Harriet (pictured at right with a student) is a graduate student in the Master of Arts in Education:Educational Foundations program at the Mount. Her studies focus on equality of education; she's interested in the rights of students to access education, both here in Canada and globally. These studies have been inspired in part by her experiences teaching in Africa.
After she earned her Bachelor of Education degree, Harriet was exploring a work abroad website when she was offered a two-year teaching contract at a private school in rural Kenya.
"What surprised me the most was how much this school was a world of its own," she reveals. The campus was on 300 acres in a rural area surrounded by a fence, and while the school employed over 200 members of the community who were vital staff members, overall the school was quite separate from the community outside."
She admits that staying within these safe bounds would have been relatively easy, but when she noticed that her students didn't really understand what life was like for rural Kenyans, she decided to find ways to bridge the school and the surrounding community.
Teachers at her school had founded the Turi Children's Project, providing food, education and health information for young people in the community. Harriet extended this program, adding a Saturday component in which students from her school and children in the community share games, reading, activities, and meals.
Through the Turi Children's project, Harriet met Sarah, a local social worker. Harriet was preparing to make an annual donation to the program, and Sarah quietly suggested sanitary pads for the young women. Without access to sanitary pads, these young women cannot leave their homes to work or attend school while they are menstruating. And not only are sanitary supplies prohibitively expensive, menstruation is a taboo topic in Kenya, meaning that it is very difficult for social workers like Sarah to ask donors for help providing these necessary supplies.
Harriet considered Sarah's suggestion. However, she had recently met a woman who was providing hand-sewn, washable pads for girls and women in the slums near Nairobi. So she used her donation to buy a sewing machine. She and Sarah hired a local seamstress, and together, they got children from the community involved in designing and sewing the pads. The Turi Children's Project committee enthusiastically helped and support spread.
Since Harriet and Sarah started this program, three more sewing machines have been purchased. In addition to making sanitary pads, they also repair local children's school uniforms, helping them to access Kenya's public education system. And community volunteers involved in the program develop employable skills by learning to sew and to bead.
And although Harriet is now at home in Nova Scotia, already planning to study access to education in a PhD program once she's earned her Master's degree, she admits she thinks often about returning to Kenya someday. "I can't wait to go back—I couldn't have left unless I knew I could go back. However," she adds thoughtfully, "I don't know where my education will take me."

A durable and hard-wearing cleaning tool from our Comfi Grip Range, designed with comfort in mind. Ideal for deep scrub cleaning hard floors, tiles, stone, walls, rough surfaces and even car wheels. Strong stiff bristle fill to take care of the toughest cleaning jobs.


At Grafana Labs, we're building an OpenSaaS monitoring platform around Grafana.
We want to create a powerful yet turnkey experience; one that offers the best of both the SaaS and open source worlds.
Our sense is that monitoring has gotten too expensive, and creates unnecessary silos. Users have lost control of their data destiny, and are trapped by inflexible solutions and spiraling costs.
We think that there's a better way forward. We're building a platform that helps you take back control of your monitoring.
We just announced a preview of Grafana.com. Users can extend and customize Grafana, through community-powered plugins. You'll be able to monitor your entire stack by choosing from a wealth of Dashboards, Panels, Data Sources, and complete Apps. Not only can you discover and install new plugins for Grafana, but anyone can create plugins to bring visualizations of 3rd party metrics together, and publish your plugin to Grafana.net for everyone to install.
We continue to work on our hosted metrics offering, which will also tie in to grafana.net, and provide a seamlessly scalable Graphite-compatible Data Source that is optimized for Grafana.
But what about a host-based system agent? Collection of system data is a key part of any monitoring stack. There are a wealth of open-source agents out there, including projects like collectd, diamond, tcollector, and telegraph.
In looking at the landscape, none of the existing options felt all that appealing. By and large, they all seemed to be designed for infrastructure that was relatively static. There didn't seem to be much innovation or fresh thinking going on in the space.
A few months ago, Intel released a new open source system agent called Snap, and it immediately piqued our interest.
Snap is written in Go, which we like and are familiar with (The Grafana backend and much of the Grafana Labs stack is written in Go). Snap also has an HTTP API for dynamic configuration and inspection, and a lot of its design seemed to reflect good thinking about really large scale and dynamic infrastructure. Finally, Snap supports real-time and ad hoc inspection of any metric, which ties in really nicely with a new "live data" feature coming in Grafana 3.x.
We started talking with Intel's Software Defined Infrastructure team, and quickly realized that there was a tremendous amount of alignment between the Grafana and Snap projects.
We're really excited to be working with Intel, and fully expect Snap to become a key part of what we're building. You can expect us to release and publish a wide range of Snap-powered plugins on Grafana.net over the coming months.

What can history class offer?
A teacher's words for his students on the last day of history class…
Photo by Timo Volz on Unsplash
I usually end this class with a formal speech on the last day. I like having the last word, and it gives some structure to the typical awkwardness and confusion of the last day of classes. This year feels different in so many ways, but I thought I would still write something to try to encapsulate what I hope you learned this year from your experience in this course. The truth is also that this is always a hard day for me because I love teaching so much and today I have to say good bye to you all and good bye to teaching until the fall.
I have to admit that this speech was harder to write than previous years'. Usually the words flow right out of me, but given everything happening in the world — the pandemic and distance learning, state-sanctioned violence against protesters, and the ongoing scourge of police brutality and racism — it's hard even for adults to know what to say to kids. I hope you'll take in these words, and I hope they'll be helpful in making sense of everything happening right now.
History class has a lot of purposes, and although I'm just a little bit biased, to me it's the most important of all your classes. My hope is to help you cultivate the habits of mind to understand your own experience and the experiences of others and develop the tools to build a better world. History class can also help you understand what is happening in our world right now.
I want you to go back in your mind through our year together. You may remember back in the fall when we studied European colonialism in Africa. Do you recall the stories of King Mojimba and Henry Stanley, two irreconcilable versions of the same fateful encounter on the Congo River in 1870? Both claimed that the other side attacked first. Our discussion focused on whose story was more likely to be believed. We concluded that Stanley's version would likely go on to become the authoritative version due to his power.

Power means your version of events is the one that gets believed. The powerful "make history;" they literally create the stories that get written about what happened in the past. Power is the ability to determine what counts as the known, what counts as history. Powerlessness, then, is the experience of having someone else tell your story, or having someone doubt your story's credibility. It means being seen as shaped by the forces of history rather than authoring it, being a secondary character instead of the protagonist. In this course we tried to look at history through the experiences of those without power, those without self-determination, and followed that thread to Rwanda, to Palestine, to the Soviet Union, to China, to those experiencing the ravages of climate change, all while keeping in mind our own relative power and privilege as Americans, as private school students.
It is incredibly hard to learn about those experiences. They are so far from what most of us experience here at this elite institution. But recent events in America have forced us to look more closely at who we are. Our own ability to live free of the weight of forces larger than ourselves was disrupted by a world-historical event; our spring together disappeared to COVID quarantine. And yet for most of us, the mild disruptions to our day-to-day lives pale in comparison to what others have experienced during the pandemic. A virus hitting a country as unequal as ours only exacerbates that inequality.
And then, with the police murder of George Floyd and the ensuing unrest, we've learned even more about the rotten soul of our country. It is an intensely sad, intensely overwhelming, and intensely perplexing time to be alive.
As a historian, it's imperative that I make clear to you that none of this is new. The specific travails of this moment may feel like a great departure, but the reality is that for millions of Americans and others around the world, very few of whom get to experience a place like our school, the violence and suffering we're seeing on our television and phone screens is nothing new. Cornelius Minor, a teacher and scholar, says that "[o]ne of white folks' [and here we could extend it to those with power] favorite things to do is to claim that they didn't know." But as we've seen, whose knowledge counts and whose doesn't is about power. Why don't we know?
Protesters are currently engaged in a struggle to assert a more accurate, more expansive version of America's history. They are trying to change what people know — and how we decide what counts as knowledge. "Black lives matter" means in part black experience matters, black knowledge matters.

Some of you may have noticed the long quote I have on my classroom door, a snippet from an essay by the writer and historian Rebecca Solnit. In it, Solnit talks about how we use the phrase "nobody knows," playing on the idea that when we say "nobody" knows something, we can mean either knowledge that is not known to anyone or, perhaps more accurately, knowledge known only by the people society and history have considered nobodies. In this framework, King Mojimba was a "nobody," and his story got ignored for the version told by Stanley, a somebody. What do history's "nobodies" know that those in power have ignored, suppressed, or forgotten? The objective of this course, guided by our school's Quaker values, is for you to come to know and understand what these so-called "nobodies" have known and to understand the process by which what these nobodies know is ignored, suppressed, and forgotten.
At this moment, it can feel hard to be upbeat about the future, but when I think of you all in this world, I feel more optimism. That is partly because of how many of you have not let the quarantine dim your spirit. You may not think of it in these terms, but when we stopped going to school and kept ourselves isolated and removed, we were all participating in an act of solidarity and selflessness. Amidst your understandable sadness about missing your spring-time activities, I hope you took pride in the fact that our collective quarantining was — and will likely continue to be — essential for helping flatten the curve and minimize the spread of the virus. My hope is that this act of solidarity, in conjunction with the scale of these protests rooted in anti-racism, will help your generation understand what solidarity looks like.
This moment in history is hard to understand in part because of its complexity. Some years back, a student shared with me that his takeaway from this course was the paradox that as he learned more about a topic or issue, he actually found himself with more questions and more unknowns. He had thought learning more would make things clearer, but in fact, as you learn more, you often find yourself with more questions and a deeper appreciation for how things are connected to one another. Zeynep Tufekci noted that in failing to wrap our heads around the scale of the pandemic, we "failed to understand that complex systems defy simplistic reductionism." Another way of saying that, which will be familiar to you from our earliest discussions this year, is "beware of the danger of a single story." Things are always more complex than we realize, and there are always multiple narratives and deep, complex cause-and-effect stories underlying nearly everything. History class has hopefully shown you how intricate and messy cause-and-effect relationships really are.
And then, of course, there is the lesson about power and stories, too. Power wants to flatten and simplify, to make things easy for people, to give a simple, reductive explanation, but the historians I hope you've become know that everything is complex and nothing is easy. You need to resist simple explanations of complex developments; instead, my hope is that this course has helped you learn to tolerate and even embrace complexity, that you have developed the cognitive armor to resist oversimplification.
This complexity extends to everything, including ourselves as individuals. One of the problems with our world today is that we see ourselves as isolated, independent entities, individuals floating along, untethered to each other. But as Solnit notes in her writing on disasters and calamities and what they reveal about human nature, in this kind of shared experience, "we suddenly all have something in common. Some of the real and some of the arbitrary walls between us fall away."
What do we owe each other? How do we learn to live together? These are the questions at the heart of a democratic society and at the heart of history class. We are living in a disaster right now, actually a complex set of interlocking disasters. Perhaps we will discover what all have in common. This is yet another gift of history class: the discovery of what's common across humans in every place, in every era.

I want to leave you with one other concept that I think may be useful for understanding what the world needs of you. There is a theory in philosophy and psychology about "moral circles." Basically, "the circle is the imaginary boundary we draw around those we consider worthy of moral consideration" and those we exclude from moral consideration. Another goal of history class is to help you expand your moral circle, to treat others, particularly those with different experiences as you, as "worthy of moral consideration." Our unit on climate change, for instance, asked whether we can consider those most vulnerable to climate change as part of our own moral calculus. It also asked us to add future generations to our moral circles. And the protest movements are asking all of us, no matter our identity, to expand our moral circle to include the victims of systemic violence and racism, to understand their stories, to want to know what "nobodies" know instead of just saying nobody knows. It's one thing to say you care; it's another to include others in your moral universe, to join your liberation to others', to understand that no one is free until everyone is free.
Indeed, the fundamental question of our time is how widely can we cast our moral circles; history shows us that America's moral circle development is largely unfinished. We still struggle to see each other as fully human and we treat only some people's knowledge as fact, only some people's experiences as valid.
Can you take what you've learned in history class this year and use it to understand what nobodies know?
I hope what I've shared with you here today — and our experience together in this course — has resonated, perhaps given you some language and vocabulary and a framework for understanding what's going on in the world. Listen to the words of the protesters: "a better world is possible." That will be true if you all make it so. And you will make it so if you can enlarge your moral circle, understand deep cause-and-effect relationships, and not shy away from embracing complexity.
"Every disaster shakes loose the old order," Solnit writes. "The sudden catastrophe changes the rules and demands new and different responses, but what those will be are the subject of a battle." You will leave here and participate in this battle for the future, and I can only hope we've armed you well.

Bike Advocacy News: Help Fight a Bicycle Ban in North Texas!
Last week, the League and the Texas Bicycle Coalition alerted cyclists to a possible bike ban on a critical east-west road, FM 455, in Anna, Texas. In response, more than 100 cyclists attended the City Council public hearing on June 13. Anna is located in Collin County, north of Dallas. Representatives from BikeDFW, the Plano Bicycle Association, the Texas Bicycle Coalition and two citizens from Anna spoke against the bike ban.

While locals in Malaysia cheer the ouster of the Barisan Nasional coalition for the first time since independence, foreign stock investors are voting with their feet.
Foreign inflows into the local stock market of $937.8 million were wiped out as concern remains on how the new coalition party under 92-year-old Mahathir Mohamad will continue economic growth.
As of May 21, foreign outflows from stocks stood at $21.2 million, after overseas investors sold a total of $949 million worth of stocks in 11 straight days. The nation had recorded inflows of as much as $2.4 billion in 2017. The benchmark FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI Index fell 0.5 percent Tuesday.
While the market has maintained its calm by gaining 0.4 percent last week after the election outcome, foreign investors are less sanguine about the nation's outlook.
Local funds and retail investors have been plowing money into stocks by buying 2.5 billion ringgit worth of equities as foreigners exit. The FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI Index is trading at 16.1 times its 12-month forward earnings, compared with a five-year average of 15.8 times.
For Asia Pacific investors like Duhra, he said elections in Indonesian and India were far more exciting with breakthrough events such as Jokowi becoming the first non-military Indonesian leader in years and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi the first real non Nehru or Gandhi dynasty member for years.
Even so, Duhra is tactical overweight on Malaysian banks as the surging oil price has benefited the only net oil exporter in the region. A recovering ringgit has also boosted margins and the non-performing loans outlook of Malaysian banks.
In Mahathir's first week in office, he has moved swiftly to fulfill campaign promises after last week's election win, effectively scrapping a goods-and-services tax without announcing specific measures to recoup revenue losses. This was greeted with caution by credit ratings companies. Moody's Investors Service labeled the move "credit negative".
"Malaysia is not even close to being a transformational election," Duhra said. "If you strip out the noise about 1MDB, which rightly is getting people excited, there is not that much under the surface."
Former Prime Minister Najib Razak is at the center of investigations looking into the 1MDB sovereignty fund and whether it was used for embezzlement or money laundering.


A day after scattered storms temporarily dampened Independence Day spirits across southwestern Connecticut, today's forecast is for clear skies and temperatures rising to a high near 90 degrees.
The National Weather Service says that while skies remain sunny, there will be a northwest wind 6 to 15 mph.
Tonight also should be clear as the temperature dips to the mid-60s, with a north wind 5 to 8 mph.
Tomorrow also should be sunny, with a high temperature in the upper-80s. Nighttime will be partly cloudy and the low temperature will be about 70 degrees.
On Saturday, there is a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms after noon, according to the NWS. Otherwise, skies will be mostly sunny, with a high temperature registering in the mid-90s. There is also a chance of showers and thunderstorms Saturday night, with a low temperature about 70 degrees.
The outlook for Sunday, the weather service predicts, is mostly sunny and temperatures in the mid-80s.

Saratoga Hospital earns Pinnacle Award
By Wendy Liberatore on October 13, 2020 at 5:26 PM
For the second year in a row, Saratoga Hospital has earned the Healthcare Association of New York State's Pinnacle Award for Quality and Patient Safety. The award recognizes innovations that improve patient care and can be adapted and implemented by other providers.
Saratoga Hospital won the 2020 award for its approach to diagnosing and treating Clostridioides difficile infection, an infection of the colon. The strategy resulted in significant reductions in unnecessary treatment and related side effects.
The 2019 award recognized Saratoga Hospital's success in early identification and treatment of sepsis, a life-threatening condition.
"The HANYS Pinnacle Award is one of the most respected honors available to New York state hospitals, so it is gratifying to be recognized, especially two years in a row," said Dr. Richard Falivena, vice president and chief medical and physician integration officer at Saratoga Hospital. "Even more important is the message this latest recognition delivers to our patients—that we continually look for ways to provide even better care."
The in-depth review of C. diff infection data showed that, in some patients who tested positive for C. diff, the bacterium was dormant. These patients did not have a C. diff infection and, therefore, could be spared the isolation, expense and potential side effects of C. diff treatment.
With support from the state Department of Health, Saratoga Hospital developed and implemented more accurate testing. The hospital also embarked on an extensive education effort on how to prevent, diagnose and treat C. diff infections.
In one year, Saratoga Hospital saw a decline in hospital-acquired C. diff and a 66 percent decrease in the number of patients requiring treatment for C. diff infections. Reducing unnecessary antibiotic treatment resulted in better patient care, saved $1 million and helped prevent an increase in drug-resistant bacteria.

~~As the Kommersant has got to know, Russian investors, who own the controlling package of the Industrial Union of Donbass (ISD), may receive $1.8 billion from VEB for the purchase of Kuzbass Sibuglemet. The deal may have an economic reason: Ukrainian metallurgy depends on coal imports from Russia. But now coal is cheap and the participants of the market see a political factor in the transaction: the strengthening of the integration of a large enterprise in the east of the Ukraine with a Russian partner and an argument against the possible limitation of coal imports to the country.
Companies of ISD's shareholders are going to attract a loan for $1.8 billion from VEB, sources that are familiar with the situation told the Kommersant. The credit will be issued for six and a half years, the recipients are Cypriot Martinley Holdings Ltd, Nabara Holdings Ltd, Vitect Services Ltd, Hayston Investments Ltd and Dawnaly Investments Ltd. In April, Evraz sold them the Czech company Vitkovice Steel for $287 million, and the Kommersant's sources told that the buyers were ISD's shareholders, including former co-owner of Evraz's assets Alexander Katunin (withdrew its capital in 2004).

is a band which is fronted by Toyah Willcox and performed from 1977 until 1983. The only other steady bamd member through the career of Toyah, was Joel Bogen. Joel was Toyah Willcox's co-writer and guitarist for the band. The band played their first performance without a name or a bass player. After a few lineup changes, the band began to record some demos in Willcox's converted warehouse. The warehouse was called, Mayhem, and it consisted of converted offices, recording rooms, and rehearsal rooms for young bands in London. The Toyah band took their name from Toyah Willcox, their lead vocalist. Their early demos recorded in 1978 were, Mother, Hunger Hill, Waiting, Gaoler, Computers, Problem Child, Little Boy, Neon Womb, Eyes, Danced, and Israel. Several of them were included in the group's early album releases. Some of the others would eventually be included on their rare compilation album called, Mayhem.
Toyah signed a contract with the indie label, Safari. They released their debut single in July, 1979, and it was called, Victims of the Riddle. The members in the band at this time were, Toyah Willcox (vocalist), Joel Bogen (guitar player), Mark Henry (bass player), Steve Bray (drummer), and Peter Bush (on the keyboards). The next release was an EP, in 1979, and it was called, Sheep Farming In Barnet. Then came another single called, Bird In Flight/ Tribal Look, and their debut album called, The Blue Meaning.
Wilcox later appeared in an episode of the U. K. TV series called, Shoestring, on ATV. He portrayed a punk musician called, Toola, in the show. This brought on a hit documentary which was viewed by 10 million people and this sent the band into the mainstream and their live album called, Toyah! Toyah! Toyah!. The lineup in the band changed after that and Toyah and Joel were the only two left. They continued to record the next set of releases. Phil Spalding (bass player), Nigel Glockler (drummer), and Adrian Lee (keyboard player), joined the group and they released the EP called, Four From Toyah.
The group continued to release singles and albums until 1984 when Willcox and Bogan split up and went their own way. They had released their final album in 1983 called, Love Is the Law.and the lineup changed again about that time. Toyah went on to release a solo album called, Minx, in 1985. Toyah left Safari records and signed with CBS' off-shoot, Portrait. Toyah is still recording and releasing her music. The band had released a total of 7 albums, 8 compilations, 7 re-issues, and 14 singles during their time together.

Tron Legacy Viral Adds Countdown to New Trailer?
Way back at San Diego Comic-Con 2009, Disney Pictures released the beginning of their viral campaign for the much anticipated Tron Legacy, the sequel to the 1982 sci-fi action adventure film starring Jeff Bridges. 42 Entertainment, the same people behind The Dark Knight's amazing viral campaign, were given the opportunity to do the viral for the upcoming Disney film, starting out with tokens to an actual arcade called Flynn's Arcade, where we later found out about the site Flynn Lives. Earlier today ComingSoon reported that the Flynn Lives group sent one if his readers a box containing a rather odd star. Find out more after the jump.
On the box was "/zerohour", which after some digging, leads to the website flynnlives.com/zerohour and a rather odd retro video game when you finally get to the website. Apparently the stars (similar to the one in the box) are part of a code that is a countdown to "zero hour". Zero hour falls on February 24th, 2010. But what does zero hour mean? Many bloggers believe that zero hour is when we will get the new trailer for Tron Legacy. What do you think?


Abuse prevention information from DPPC.
Any action taken to prevent abuse or neglect from occurring in the first instance…or any action taken to protect the individual from risk of further abuse, once it has already occurred.
Abuse prevention as a "mindset"
A mindset might be defined as a mental attitude or disposition that predetermines a person's response to and interpretation of situations. It is important that service providing agencies and others caring for persons with disabilities adopt an abuse prevention mindset, in order to be effective in preventing abuse and neglect from occurring within their programs. Every person involved in caring for an individual with a disability performs an important role in keeping that person safe.
Why is this mindset necessary?
Some persons with disabilities, like children and elders, have been designated as a more vulnerable segment of our population requiring additional protections under Federal and State laws.
The nature and extent of the disabilities may make certain individuals more susceptible to becoming victims of abuse or neglect by persons upon whom they depend for assistance with daily living needs. For example, individuals who are non-communicative, or profoundly cognitively impaired, may be at greater risk of abuse, since they are more likely to be unable to report what has happened to them. In other instances, individuals who are physically challenged may be reluctant to report abuse or neglect out of fear of losing the assistive services of their caregiver.
It is, therefore, incumbent upon service providers and other caregivers to become educated about symptoms of abuse and neglect, risk factors, Federal and State laws and regulations, resources, and prevention principles and practices.

Jackson death investigator acknowledges mistakes
Local | October 6, 2011
LOS ANGELES (AP) – A coroner's investigator acknowledged Thursday that she made mistakes while collecting medications and other evidence from Michael Jackson's bedroom after he died, but she minimized the issues by saying no investigation is perfect.
Investigator Elissa Fleak was aggressively cross-examined by defense attorney Ed Chernoff as he tried to expose flaws in the way medical evidence was handled by authorities in the case against Dr. Conrad Murray.
Chernoff pointed to pictures that he said indicated things had been moved in the room. The images showed an IV pole and saline bag in two different locations. A bottle of medicine Fleak said she had found on the floor was photographed on a nightstand.
In addition, Chernoff said Fleak didn't note that she had found a bottle of the powerful anesthetic propofol inside an IV bag until March 2011, nearly two years after the singer's death.
"Would you agree with me that you made a substantial number of mistakes in your investigation?" Chernoff asked.
"No," Fleak said.
Jurors at times leaned forward to look at the photos projected on a large screen. Some took notes on the testimony.
Deputy District Attorney David Walgren attempted to minimize the missteps.
"Ms. Fleak, did you conduct a perfect investigation in this case?" he asked.
"No," she said.
"Have you ever conducted a perfect investigation?" Walgren asked.
"No," said the witness.
"Are there always things you would have done differently in hindsight?' he asked.
"Yes,"' Fleak replied, saying she had tried to be as accurate and truthful as possible.
Fleak was assigned to the investigation on June 25, 2009, when Jackson died and she went to his rented mansion to collect evidence. Four days later, after Murray, the singer's personal physician, had talked to police, she returned to follow leads the doctor had provided, including a description of medications hidden in a closet.
"Returning to the scene is not typical," she said, "and there was a lot more medical evidence."
Chernoff questioned whether Fleak had heard testimony by bodyguard Alberto Alvarez, who said during a preliminary hearing in January that he saw the propofol bottle inside the IV bag. He repeated the detail for jurors last week and said Murray told him to put the IV bag into another bag before calling 911.
Authorities say Jackson died of acute propofol intoxication combined with other sedatives administered by Murray. Defense attorneys have an alternate theory: The King of Pop gave himself the fatal dose when the cardiologist left the singer's bedroom.
Murray has pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter.
Fingerprint evidence stipulated to by both sides did not appear to bolster the defense theory. Jackson's fingerprints were not found on any medicine bottles. One of Murray's prints was found on a 100 milliliter vial of propofol, a much larger dose than the doctor said he gave Jackson on the day he died.
Later in the day, coroner's chief toxicologist Dan Anderson testified that propofol was found in Jackson's blood, urine and liver when he died.
Jackson showed no signs of opiates or the painkiller Demerol, Anderson said.
He said drugs detected in significant amounts were propofol, lidocaine and lorazepam, a sedative that Murray said he gave to try to get Jackson to sleep before he administered propofol.
Anderson said lorazepam was found at the high therapeutic level, but he did not characterize the amount of propofol.

SCANDINAVIAN GRIT AND SISU: ELIXIR AGAINST ADVERSITY
Posted byDonnie: An Admiring Grandson April 19, 2020 Posted inUncategorized
Life is often reduced to acknowledge that there exists for all living things a prevalent inescapable struggle for survival. The principle of, "Survival of the fittest" explains that individuals, or whole species must be "adaptable", or die.
There would be those that claim that highly valued traits of human grit and resilience can be passed along in one's genetic material. This much sought after feature is the subject of a long history of exploration and research.
Biologist, Charles Darwin and others sought to address the question of exactly how living things adapt and pass along that life-giving ability to stand up to adverse environmental conditions and survive. Darwin's research led to theories of evolution which seeks to explain how all living things respond to change over time. Heritability, is the most fundamental strength of living things to pass along traits that empower species to avoid extinction at the hands of predators, disease or anything that threatens the ability to sustain life. Scientists are clear cultural imbued traits like grittiness and mental toughness are not passes along via DNA biochemical material, rather are conditioned by human interaction we call upbringing or learning.
People want to know, why is it that certain distinctive traits are passed along among family members. People seem to think that certain familial traits are emphasized during child rearing so as to prepare them with a boost or advantage. Practicing the desired behavior becomes almost, "second nature" and thus gives the appearance of in-born features passed along at birth.
Today, it is asserted that certain nations and cultures claim ownership for distinctive features that identify with that originator. "Sisu" is such a trait associated with the people of Finland. More about this character feature will follow. Not to be outdone, people of Scandanavian nations might also lay claim to possessing the ability to demonstrate extraordinary strength against adversity and recognize that they too deserve notice for calling upon mental toughness, at will to prove their might.
Consulting with Swedish historian and genealogy expert, Lars Lundstrom confirmed that Maja's heritage and ancestors' records provide reasons to believe that Maja's status of resilience displayed stands with a number of her relatives that have demonstrated mental toughness of note. Swedes have a lexicon for explaining and interpreting this phenomenon. Taga is a word like Grit, meaning either has Taga or don't. It is like, "have a spine or backbone". Taga in old Swedish language term for sturdiness, drive, grit, courage, but not clumsy or stubborn. Someone who is strong minded or strong willed, they are said to demonstrate Taga. When tough times happen, persons with Taga hang in there and show some Taga".
Finland joins those actively exploring the concept of grit and resilience, including researcher, Emilia Lahti. Lahti at the University of Aalto in Helsinki points to the value of taking a close look at Finnish, "Sisu". Sisu is defined as the ability to push through hardships, extraordinary courage and determination, a power reserve. Sisu is said to have a character of strength much more than meets the eye. Lahti explains, sisu is an untranslatable historical-cultural construct, – "that has been used for centuries to describe the enigmatic power that enables individuals to push through unbearable challenges. A systematic examination of stories and grit and resilience traits and words for the phenomenon exist. Like the Finns for from other cultures, such as rasmia (Spanish), gaman (Japanese) and l'chatchila ariber (Aramaic) that relate to overcoming adversity.
Perhaps a case history sheds some light on the discussion of how culture enters the discussion about the ability to stand up against adversity and rise to occasions that are difficult and may even threaten personal survival.
Life was hard for the Wittenstrom family in Depression era America. Grandma Maja pointed to grit and resilience as a life force that she explicitly taught and insisted that the children learned and practices together. Grit and resilience were the ethic that drove the teamwork, and motivated an ongoing optimistic refusal to give in to weakness and self-pity. Looking back, Maja and her children earned over their lifetime a diploma as they endured a childhood learning experience of testing receiving a "hard knocks" education curriculum studies in the midst of a demanding, Great Depression School of Hard Times Survival College.
Probing deeper into family history and genealogy connects with stories that touch into the life of the community in which ancestors have lived and come from. Genealogy searches sometimes touch the political economic and social history which help understand how place and time helps define what is known about ancestors. There is strong interest by many asking questions about living through the 1930's and the Great Depression. Finding out what was going on in the nation and world affecting one's ancestors provides interest and brings puzzle pieces to the mosaic of family ancestry pictures.
Philosopher Friedrich Nietzche reminded the world: what does not kill me makes me stronger. Grandma Maja essentially went to war against the Great Depression in order to save her life and promote the life of her three young children.
More on "Sisu" and Viking-Scandanavian Grit applied to engaging in the fight against adversity will follow in another blog.

Q: Why is copying or assigning objects of this class considered dangerous? From "C++ Concurrency in Action" by Anthony Williams.
The author defines a thread_guard class which, is passed a reference to a std::thread upon construction, and upon destruction, attempts to join() that same thread.
Here is the definition
class thread_guard
{
    std::thread& t;
    public:
        explicit thread_guard(std::thread& t_):t(_t){}
    ~thread_guard()
    {
        if(t.joinable())
        {
           t.join();
        }
    }
    thread_guard(thread_guard const&)=delete;  // why?
    thread_guard operator=(thread_guard const&)=delete;  // why?
};

struct func; // function object, definition not included here
void f()
{
    int some_local_state = 0;
    func my_func(some_local_state); // passing in a local variable
    std::thread t(my_func);

    // ensure that thread finishes before exiting f()
    thread_guard tg(t);
    do_something_in_current_thread();
}

My question is why are the copy constructor and assignment operator disallowed (with delete)?
The author says that copying would be dangerous because the thread_guard copy "might then outlive the scope of the thread it was joining".
But I'm confused - isn't that a risk anyway, even with the original object (that the object will outlive the scope of the thread)? Isn't that why there is a check in the destructor, if t.joinable()?
What fundamental thing have I missed here.
(Related: thread_guard vs scoped_thread)

A: The std::thread object that the thread_guard guards is held by reference. Therefore, if the thread_guard object outlives the std::thread object, then there is a dangling reference, and the call to t.joinable() is undefined behaviour.
Making thread_guard non-copyable makes it harder to end up in this scenario: since the std::thread object and thread_guard are likely local-scope variables, then in order to pass the thread to the guard, the thread must be constructed first, which means it will be destroyed afterwards in most circumstances.
Note: none of this is about the thread itself, purely about the std::thread object.
If there are multiple thread_guard objects for the same std::thread object, the first to be destroyed will call t.join() if necessary, and the second will see the thread has already been joined and do nothing.
If the std::thread object has no thread whether because it was default constructed, has already been joined or detached, or its thread was moved to another std::thread object, then the thread_guard destructor does nothing.

A: The explanation given isn't the most compelling reason (imo).
There should only ever be one thread_guard for each thread. Making it uncopyable means that it is difficult to accidentally have two guards of the same thread.
The expected use case is that both the thread and the guard are automatic storage duration objects living in the same scope, with the guard joining the thread just before it is destroyed. There isn't a need to copy the guard
