Safety in the workplace from Lateral Violence to Lateral Kindness Awasis 2016griehl
Lateral violence exists on a spectrum, from seemingly ordinary behaviour such as gossiping or criticism, to intimidation, racism and outright physical intimidation or harm. Lateral violence cannot thrive when employers, co-workers, and team-members become ethically and legally responsible. We do not accept bullying in our schools or other workplaces so why do we accept it or turn a blind eye within our teams? The concern is that lateral violence is happening or fostered at various levels and going on where we have learned to oppress one another and has become normal. Often, lateral violence is a mind-set based on fear rather than respect.
The goal of the presentation is to empower individuals to recognize lateral violence and intervene, through conflict resolution and to avoid unhealthy coping strategies. Having the conversation is what matters . . . it shows that everyone shares the responsibility for behaviour that affects our teams and our communities; we need to show our students healthy communication and role models so they will be able to model behaviours to lead us into the future in a balanced and health way forward.
Celebrity endorsements and partnerships have quickly become a go-to marketing strategy for brands both large and small. But some recent press has business owners and brands second-guessing their celebrity marketing strategy.
A valuable endorsement can pique the interest of current and potential users or customers, partners and investors — even if they are not a fan of that particular celebrity. It’s up to you to quickly capitalize on this newfound interest, but doors will certainly open quite a bit easier.
Beyond PR, integrate your celebrity into your current marketing strategy — and especially your branding. Fitness startup DietBet has used niche celebrities, like fitness guru Drew Manning, to build credibility amongst its audience. “In our case, we were looking for people who can help inspire people lose weight. Drew certainly inspires people,” said Matt Daniel, DietBet’s VP of Business Development, when I spoke with him about the campaign.
Actually, Drew’s “Diet Bet” was the most successful the company has run yet. They also used reality stars Jeff Schroeder and Jordan Lloyd of “Big Brother” fame to reach and capture an audience they normally would have trouble obtaining. “I don’t think we would’ve captured those users without them,” said Daniel.
The celebrity may not drive a ton of traffic to your site via social media, but you can use this connection to craft an exciting story about your brand — and thereby attracting the attention of bloggers and even reporters. Offer them exclusive celebrity interviews to certain blogs, run contests around your brand and the celebrity, create short videos with the celebrity using and talking about the product, and release original photos of the celebrity with your product.
All of this content appeals to three important groups: bloggers, the celeb’s fans and your potential customers. Make sure your sales funnel is fine-tuned before you launch a content marketing effort so you can turn these potential customers into sales, conversions, or whatever other metric you may be striving for.
Case in point: Jessica Alba might be one of the most devoted celebrities in the startup world for her work with The Honest Co.. A quick Google search of “Jessic Alba and The Honest Company” will yield you pages upon pages of articles, interviews and content ranging from smaller “mommy blogs” all the way up to top-tier magazines. Alba and partner Brian Lee were even invited to take the stage at TechCrunch’s Disrupt SF in 2012.
Of course, having Brian Lee as a keynote is appealing at any tech conference, but getting Alba on the stage is what really made waves. Alba’s name has no doubt created a multitude of press that The Honest Co. would have had trouble garnering without her.
Young adult literature serves an important purpose, if only to give a voice and context to students during this difficult age. This slide show explores bullying and ties it into some popular YA titles (page numbers indicated for reading aloud to students). A kind of book talk and lesson about behavior in one.

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection
