1) Teen vaping has become an epidemic in the United States, with 1 in 5 high school students using e-cigarettes regularly according to the CDC. Vaping can negatively impact brain development and mental health in teens. 2) Nicotine and other chemicals in vapes put teens at risk for mood disorders, addiction, and exacerbating conditions like anxiety and depression due to effects on the still-developing brain. 3) Teen vaping is influenced by peer pressure, appealing flavors, and a belief that vaping is less harmful than cigarettes. Parents need to take action through open communication, setting a quit date, and understanding withdrawal symptoms to help teens overcome addiction.

This document discusses the overdiagnosis of ADHD in children. Research from Michigan State University found that up to 22% of the 4.5 million children diagnosed with ADHD may have been misdiagnosed. Young age is a major factor, as 5-year-olds commonly display hyperactive and inattentive behaviors typical of ADHD diagnoses. Boys are also twice as likely to receive an ADHD diagnosis as girls and more prone to false diagnoses. False ADHD diagnoses can lead to unnecessary medication prescriptions that pose risks. The document recommends getting a reevaluation if diagnosed as a child or waiting until older to see if behaviors change before pursuing an ADHD diagnosis.

Every 3 minutes, a child is diagnosed with cancer worldwide. In the US, 43 children are diagnosed daily. 1 in 285 children will be diagnosed with cancer before age 20. St. Jude Children's Research Hospital has helped increase the cure rate for acute lymphoblastic leukemia to 95% and ensures families never receive bills, but it costs $2.2 million per day to operate. Public contributions cover about 75% of costs, with 82 cents of every dollar going to research and treatment.
BUS 271 Katherine Howell-- Social Media Affects on Body Image
Teenagers spend an average of 2 hours and 24 minutes per day on social media where they are constantly exposed to unrealistic beauty standards that emphasize thinness and can promote disordered eating. Exposure to these distorted images through social media can lead to body dissatisfaction in 87% of women who compare their appearance to curated photos on social media, and 78% feel unsatisfied with their looks as a result. Nearly 60% of college-aged women feel pressure to attain a certain weight from social media influences. Understanding that social media often features edited and fake portrayals can help prevent negative impacts on body image.
Substance abuse and ADHD statistics
Stimulant medications are among the highly abused drugs in the country. Surprisingly, stimulants like Ritalin and Concerta which are both methylphenidate and amphetamines (Adderal) are actually prescribed to treat people with ADHD.
File (3)
Almost 25% of teenagers have abused prescription medications at some point in their lifetime, a 33% increase over the past 4 years. Common abused medications include stimulants like Adderall and Ritalin. Many parents have a lax approach to prescription drug safety and incorrectly believe stimulants may help their teen's academics. Over 20% of teens who abuse Rx drugs started before age 14. There is a misconception among teens that abusing prescription drugs is safer than illicit street drugs. Abuse of stimulants has significantly increased, with over 1.8 million teens abusing Adderall or Ritalin in the past 6 months alone.

Understanding the Spectrum of Prenatal Alcohol Exposure part 1
This document provides information about fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) including:
1) There is no known safe amount of alcohol during pregnancy, as even low to moderate drinking can cause FASD. The effects of prenatal alcohol exposure cannot be predicted and depend on multiple genetic and environmental factors.
2) Contrary to common beliefs, those most at risk for having children with FASD are not young single women or alcoholics, but rather white, educated women over 30 from middle to upper classes.
3) While some facial features can indicate prenatal alcohol exposure, this is not always the case, and facial effects decrease with age. FASD is mostly invisible.

Effects of alcohol, drugs, and violence
This document summarizes and critiques two studies on the psychological effects of substances like alcohol, drugs and violence on minority children from socioeconomically deprived neighborhoods. It argues that the first study, which examined the effects of prenatal substance exposure on motor skills in 4-year-olds, was incomplete because it did not follow the original participants and added new participants to the control group. The second study, which tested cognitive abilities of African American children via laptop, is critiqued for potentially biasing children's responses by helping them answer questions and conducting the test in children's homes rather than a controlled setting. The document calls for more well-designed studies that follow the same participants and control for biases.

Teenagers are often exposed to drugs and alcohol through peer pressure, parental examples, and media influences. A study found that over 50% of 12th graders had used alcohol and nearly 25% had used illicit drugs in the past year. Teens are particularly susceptible to peer pressure as their brains prioritize rewards over risks. Parents who use drugs or drink can negatively influence teens through their example. Media frequently portrays substance use in a positive light without consequences, which teens may emulate. However, various treatment options exist to help teens struggling with addiction.
ALCOHOL AND DRUG ABUSE REPORT
This document discusses teen alcohol and drug abuse. It begins with an abstract that defines substance abuse and notes that alcohol is the most commonly abused substance among youth. It then provides statistics on underage drinking in the US and its consequences, including over 5,000 deaths per year among those under 21 from alcohol-related causes. The document notes that drinking is widespread among adolescents according to surveys. It also discusses risk factors for teen substance abuse like family history of addiction and early initiation of use before the brain is fully developed. The rest of the document consists of sample survey questions about alcohol and cigarette use that could be given to teens to assess behaviors and perceptions.
Are Mental Health Problems Increasing
Are mental health problems increasing? The answer does seem to be yes, especially among adolescents and young adults. According to a study from the American Psychological Association, rates of mood disorders and events that relate to suicide have gone up significantly in the past decade within these younger age groups.
Having a mental condition does seem to be on the rise.
Even before the COVID-19 outbreak, mental disorders were becoming increasingly prevalent. That’s likely even more true now, as the pandemic has had a negative impact, leading to increases in depression, anxiety and PTSD, and feelings of isolation and loneliness.

The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defects
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.

When I was asked to give a companion lecture in support of ‘The Philosophy of Science’ (https://shorturl.at/4pUXz) I decided not to walk through the detail of the many methodologies in order of use. Instead, I chose to employ a long standing, and ongoing, scientific development as an exemplar. And so, I chose the ever evolving story of Thermodynamics as a scientific investigation at its best.
Conducted over a period of >200 years, Thermodynamics R&D, and application, benefitted from the highest levels of professionalism, collaboration, and technical thoroughness. New layers of application, methodology, and practice were made possible by the progressive advance of technology. In turn, this has seen measurement and modelling accuracy continually improved at a micro and macro level.
Perhaps most importantly, Thermodynamics rapidly became a primary tool in the advance of applied science/engineering/technology, spanning micro-tech, to aerospace and cosmology. I can think of no better a story to illustrate the breadth of scientific methodologies and applications at their best.

hematic appreciation test is a psychological assessment tool used to measure an individual's appreciation and understanding of specific themes or topics. This test helps to evaluate an individual's ability to connect different ideas and concepts within a given theme, as well as their overall comprehension and interpretation skills. The results of the test can provide valuable insights into an individual's cognitive abilities, creativity, and critical thinking skillsWhat is greenhouse gasses and how many gasses are there to affect the Earth.

Deep Software Variability and Frictionless Reproducibility
Deep Software Variability and Frictionless ReproducibilityUniversity of Rennes, INSA Rennes, Inria/IRISA, CNRS
The ability to recreate computational results with minimal effort and actionable metrics provides a solid foundation for scientific research and software development. When people can replicate an analysis at the touch of a button using open-source software, open data, and methods to assess and compare proposals, it significantly eases verification of results, engagement with a diverse range of contributors, and progress. However, we have yet to fully achieve this; there are still many sociotechnical frictions.
Inspired by David Donoho's vision, this talk aims to revisit the three crucial pillars of frictionless reproducibility (data sharing, code sharing, and competitive challenges) with the perspective of deep software variability.
Our observation is that multiple layers — hardware, operating systems, third-party libraries, software versions, input data, compile-time options, and parameters — are subject to variability that exacerbates frictions but is also essential for achieving robust, generalizable results and fostering innovation. I will first review the literature, providing evidence of how the complex variability interactions across these layers affect qualitative and quantitative software properties, thereby complicating the reproduction and replication of scientific studies in various fields.
I will then present some software engineering and AI techniques that can support the strategic exploration of variability spaces. These include the use of abstractions and models (e.g., feature models), sampling strategies (e.g., uniform, random), cost-effective measurements (e.g., incremental build of software configurations), and dimensionality reduction methods (e.g., transfer learning, feature selection, software debloating).
I will finally argue that deep variability is both the problem and solution of frictionless reproducibility, calling the software science community to develop new methods and tools to manage variability and foster reproducibility in software systems.

- 1. Teen Vaping Epidemic By Clint Verrett
- 2. Our New Problem Did you know that 1 in 5 high school students uses e-cigarettes? Nationally, 3.6 million middle and high school students use these products, which means that even if your child is not using e-cigarettes, they almost certainly have friends who are. Rates of youth e-cigarette use more than doubled between 2017 and 2019, to the point that the U.S. Surgeon General declared the problem an “epidemic.”
- 3. Teen Vaping in Mental Health Vaping and mental health are closely intertwined. The young adult brain is in a regular state of evolution, with many of its core structures not reaching full maturity until an individual’s early- to mid-twenties. That makes vaping in teens especially problematic, due to the effects of nicotine and other harmful substances found in vapes on the developing brain. The nicotine in vaping devices puts teenagers at risk for a range of long-term effects, including mood disorders, reduced impulse control, and addiction. It can also exacerbate the symptoms and behaviors of depression, anxiety, and hyperactivity.
- 4. How do teens get addicted? The CDC’s 2016 National Youth Tobacco Survey found that, among students who vaped in 2016, 39% did so because a friend or family member also did, 31% were drawn to the availability of “fun” flavors like candy and chocolate, and 17.1% believed e-cigarettes to be less harmful than traditional cigarettes. The teenage vaping epidemic is part peer pressure, part sneaky marketing, and part “teens being teens.” Meanwhile, the mental health consequences are very real, which leads us to our next section: what you can do about it.
- 5. The earlier the teen stops vaping, the better! Parents need to take action and focus more on their children's lifestyle, behavior, and friends. 1. Take accountability, and let others know. Set a quit date and allow the ones you told to help. 2. Be aware of withdrawal. Understand that it will be hard to defeat. Side effects of headaches, trouble sleeping, and mood swings will come. Prevention and Quitting
- 6. Key Takeaways Vaping is a growing epidemic here in the United States and it needs to be stop. ● 1 in 5 high school students vape consistently ● Vaping can cause serious health problems, especially in adolescents ● Vaping can be prevented if taken seriously ● It is possible to quit vaping if you follow the guidelines
