We asked listeners to tell us about groups and individuals making a difference in their communities. The response was incredible. We heard so many amazing stories about everyday heroes doing powerful work. It was no easy task, but we eventually narrowed the list for our award down to three organizations: Hearts & Hooves of Chattanooga, Tenn., Just Keep Smiling of Gardendale, Ala., and Joshua's Place of South Lebanon, Ohio. In this show you'll hear heartwarming stories from all three groups. And you'll find out who received an award.

Ala Shaabana joins us to discuss the compelling vision behind Bittensor - a decentralized network aiming to democratize access to AI models and development. He provides an inside look at the technical architecture and incentives powering this novel system. We delve into recent events highlighting flaws in centralized AI governance, using OpenAI's board drama as a case study. Ala contrasts this with Bittensor's community-driven approach to align AI progress with shared human values. Beyond technical details, we explore philosophical questions around AI development pathways. Ala weighs a future of continued concentration in big tech versus decentralized progress through platforms like Bittensor. He makes a thoughtful case for the latter route to drive innovation equitably. Touching on applications built atop Bittensor, intriguing use cases emerge from specialized subnets meeting localized needs unattainable via generalized models from a single provider. Ala sees room for growth across research, commercial applications and hobbyist experimentation alike. He also discusses Bittensor's roadmap to dissolve its own foundation over time, completing the decentralized vision through demonstrable self-governance. This podcast provides a window into next-generation infrastructure springing up to unlock AI's benefits to society in an inclusive way.

Today, I want to cover the symptoms of a vitamin B6 deficiency you may have never heard of before. “They” say it's rare to become deficient in vitamin B6. However, it's possible to have a subclinical B6 deficiency that still affects your well-being, even if it's not a full-blown vitamin B6 deficiency. Vitamin B6 is important to support a healthy body. Typically, there are no side effects of taking vitamin B6 if you take less than 200 mg daily. If you take too much vitamin B6, you could experience toxicity effects. However, you would have to consume over 1000 mg of vitamin B6 per day to cause any issues. Foods rich in vitamin B6 are: • Beef • Pork • Fish • Chicken It's pretty well-known that if you have low vitamin B6, you may experience symptoms, including: • Rashes around the nose • Cracks or rashes around the mouth • Pink eye • Anemia • Neurological problems • Numbness in the hands and feet • Depression Surprising symptoms of a vitamin B6 deficiency: 1. Inflammation (especially gut inflammation) 2. Inability to control polyunsaturated fatty acids 3. Deficiencies in neurotransmitters 4. Inability to convert ALA to DHA 5. Poor selenium function 6. Inability to convert tryptophan to niacin 7. Alopecia 8. Seizures 9. High homocysteine levels 10. Increased risk of autism 11. Increased risk of gut pathogens Causes of vitamin B6 deficiency: • Processed foods • Diuretics • Blood pressure medications • Antibiotics • Birth control pills • Alcohol • Pregnancy or lactation • Smoking • Herbicides • Ginkgo biloba DATA: https://microbiomejournal.biomedcentr... https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/1...

Jornais repercutem que onda de calor ampliou o uso de usinas térmicas no país, usando alguma pressão sobre as tarifas de energia. Especialistas apontam que movimento deve se repetir ao longo do verão. Segundo o Estadão, Governo estaria avaliando adiar a decisão sobre alteração da meta de resultado primário de 2024 até a votação das medidas de aumento de arrecadação propostas por Fernando Haddad, o que poderia ocorrer durante a discussão do orçamento (PLOA) ou ficar para março de 2024. Ala do Governo deve apresentar um plano para evitar paralisação das obras do PAC em função de contingenciamentos para cumprimento da meta fiscal no ano que vem. Plano prevê utilização dos restos a pagar para manutenção das obras. Cálculos da equipe do Ministério da Fazenda apontam que provavelmente será necessário realizar contingenciamento de recursos a partir de março de 2024, independente de alteração da meta fiscal. Por outro lado, equipe de Simone Tebet vem realizando estudo que deve prever corte de despesas para o próximo ano. Governo estuda incluir discussão do JCP em proposta sobre subvenção do ICMS. No entanto, líderes partidários acreditam que não há mais espaço e tempo para avançar com mudanças no JCP ainda em 2023. No cenário internacional, destaque para os dados de atividade econômica na China, que vieram levemente acima do esperado. No Japão, PIB do 3T23 surpreende negativamente as expectativas, enquanto inflação desacelera novamente no Reino Unido.

Paredes cobertas de obras de arte, em um ambiente envidraçado e aberto ao público. Esta poderia ser apenas mais uma galeria de arte, se não estivesse no centro do pátio de um imenso hospital universitário. O Espace Bulle, como o próprio nome sugere, é uma bolha de cultura e bem-estar em benefício de todo o público do Hospital Henri-Mondor, na região parisiense. Um projeto que utiliza a arte como uma importante aliada para a saúde, inclusive no tratamento de doenças graves. Andréia Gomes Durão, da RFI“Nós estamos comprometidos em um processo de desenvolvimento sustentável e social ambicioso para melhorar a qualidade de vida de profissionais e pacientes. Para nós, é primordial que um estabelecimento de saúde, que é aberto a todos, coloque à disposição dos seus usuários espaços de relaxamento, para respirar um ar mais leve, para sair um pouco deste universo tão urbanizado e cimentado que nos cerca. É uma ideia de saúde pública, em que todos – pacientes, famílias, profissionais, moradores da região – possam se beneficiar deste espaço”, explica Irma Bourgeon-Ghittori, encarregada de projetos da Direção de Cuidados e Atividades Paramedicais do Hospital Henri-Mondor.Ela acrescenta ainda que o Espace Bulle tem a proposta de contribuir com o tratamento, mas também com a compreensão de doenças graves de uma forma multidisciplinar.“Isso nos levou à decisão de realizar um projeto que é, ao mesmo tempo, integrador e inovador, em que se aplicam diferentes dimensões, como a arquitetura, a arte visual, a vegetalização, a biodiversidade, a cultura, o compartilhamento, a escuta do outro, o relaxamento e, principalmente, o cuidado.”Irma enfatiza a importância para a saúde do paciente de promover o bem-estar para todas as pessoas que o cercam. “Um hospital é um lugar onde as situações profissionais são difíceis de suportar, é uma fonte de estresse, e de cansaço moral. O objetivo deste espaço é sair um pouco deste universo, e ser aberto aos profissionais que estejam à procura de um lugar para se restabelecer, para reforçar laços, se encontrarem quando estão no hospital.”Ela insiste no papel que a arte exerce em uma melhor compreensão da realidade dos pacientes, tanto da parte dos médicos quanto de seus familiares. “As exposições propostas no Espaço Bulle são muito variadas e permitem às pessoas se envolverem em função dos temas, sempre ligados ao cuidado com a saúde, e aproveitarem um lugar que busca simplesmente levar cultura ao hospital”, conclui Irma.Um rabisco superstarIsabelle Gueroult foi uma das pacientes a expor no Espace Bulle. Durante o tratamento de um câncer, um bloquinho de rascunho foi sua companhia para driblar o tédio. E seus desenhos, a princípio despretensiosos, logo passariam a traduzir todas as emoções visitadas na luta contra a doença.“Eu criei um personagem para atenuar um pouco as dores, os questionamentos, essa revolta que eu tinha, porque eu comecei a desenhar no hospital enquanto aguardava meus tratamentos, que eram muito longos. Então eu inventei um pequeno personagem que me permitia me escapar um pouco. Esse personagem se chama Gribouille Superstar, e eu assumi um pouco essa identidade. Esse pequeno personagem é careca, foi quando eu não tinha mais cabelos. Quando eu me olhava, eu tinha a impressão de ser outra pessoa, na verdade. Ele também não tinha boca, porque quando eu soube da minha doença, eu fiquei sem voz”, ela lembra.O nome de seu personagem, Gribouille Superstar, tem duplo sentido. Gribouille pode ser apenas um rabisco, um tipo de rascunho, mas também alguém ingênuo e perdido, que se vê em dificuldades muito maiores do que poderia prever.“Agora eu começo, de vez em quando, a fazer uma pequena boca [no personagem]. Um pouco mais sorridente, um pouco interrogativa. E como as crianças gostam muito deste pequeno personagem, eu sempre desenho uma pequena boca para as crianças, porque, afinal, as crianças representam a felicidade”, afirma a agora artista visual.Neste diário não escrito, mas desenhado, Isabelle revela cada etapa da doença, do tratamento, suas angústias e medos, o cansaço, a sensação de isolamento, traduzindo para o outro, em formas e cores, tudo o que aconteceu com ela.“Há também os planos de fundo, como o espaço, como qualquer coisa que me faz ir em um mundo dos mortos e voltar para o mundo dos vivos. Isso são meus desenhos, uma mistura do mundo dos mortos com o mundo dos vivos, porque quando tomamos conhecimento da doença, nós não sabemos se vamos nos sair bem. Mas eu presto atenção, apesar de tudo, em manter a esperança e a vida em tudo o que faço”, conta Isabelle.BrutalidadeAos 37 anos, Julien Secheyron recebeu o diagnóstico de uma doença rara e ainda sem cura, a neuropatia óptica hereditária de Leber (NOHL). Em apenas três meses, o paciente perde grande parte da visão e a capacidade de identificar as cores.“De repente, se está privado de tudo, tudo, tudo, quer dizer, não se pode escrever um e-mail, não se pode mais ler uma mensagem, estar no Whatsapp, não se pode mais retirar dinheiro no banco, reconhecer as notas de dinheiro, não se pode mais ver o que se está comendo, ver seu próprio rosto ou o de outra pessoa. É brutal! Então eu me vi sozinho, sentado no meu sofá, com um grande buraco negro na minha vida pessoal e profissional”, ele descreve.E sob a brutalidade da notícia de que perderia quase completamente a visão, Julien tomou a curiosa decisão de escrever um livro. “Então eu me disse, por que não escrever um livro para mostrar que é realmente uma brutalidade? O fato que vamos perder tudo isso em três meses, mas que há muita esperança, graças à pesquisa médica, graças aos centros de adaptação, e graças também a outros que tiveram essa doença e foram capazes de superá-la, mostrando do que se trata, explicando o que podemos fazer. Este é um livro para novos pacientes, não apenas da doença NOHL. É também um livro para os acompanhantes, para os que cuidam, porque é uma coisa muito difícil de se compreender.”Escrever “Vous ne verrez plus” (Você não verá mais) foi a forma que ele encontrou para expressar um momento intensamente assustador e transformador em sua vida e compartilhar o que viveu com outras pessoas. O livro lhe rendeu o prêmio Paroles des Patients 2023, o que poderia ser traduzido como palavras ou depoimentos dos pacientes, concedido por uma organização francesa de indústrias farmacêuticas.“Essas informações dão esperança às pessoas, mas também servem para sacudir um pouco a esfera pública e privada sobre os deficientes, porque deficiente não é apenas quem está em uma cadeira de rodas, estamos falando também do famoso deficiente invisível, que são cerca de 10 milhões na França, que vão desde o deficiente visual, mas também o auditivo, aquele que tem diabetes, até o câncer. É este deficiente invisível que eu também quis colocar em evidência neste livro”, destaca Secheyron.Temáticas e técnicasUsar sua própria história de superação na luta contra o câncer em benefício de outros pacientes foi o que motivou a designer gráfica e ilustradora Camille Esayan a criar o ateliê criativo Créer comme respirer (Criar como respirar), em que ela utiliza uma combinação de temáticas e técnicas artísticas para dar aos participantes diversas formas de expressão.“Eu decidi aproveitar essas ferramentas para outras pessoas, outros pacientes. Eu procurei associações de apoio após o câncer. Eu fui ao encontro de outros pacientes para propor a eles ateliês criativos com a ideia de que a arte pudesse ajudá-los a superar sua própria experiência da doença”, ela explica.Com isso, o ateliê permite a essas pessoas revelar e dividir suas questões em torno da doença com outros pacientes por meio da arte. “Esses ateliês fazem todo um sentido porque nós nos encontramos entre pacientes, então, é um momento privilegiado, onde podemos fazer trocas, compartilhar percepções. Porque é exatamente esta sensação de dissociação em relação às outras pessoas, em relação mesmo ao próprio corpo, são esses sentimentos que dividimos”, descreve Camille.Sentimentos que são compartilhados também, de forma descontraída e lúdica, com quem nunca passou pela mesma situação. Participantes do ateliê acabaram por formar o coletivo Marques de Fabrique (Marcas Registradas), que promove exposições de suas obras para o público em geral.“Acho que exibir os trabalhos ao público em geral faz parte de uma evolução de entendimentos sobre a questão, sobre o olhar que lançamos sobre a doença, a forma de ver o câncer, a forma de ver os pacientes”, sublinha a artista.Uma próxima exposição do coletivo, chamada “À corps ouvert”, tem vernissage nesta quinta-feira (16) e se estende até domingo (19) no endereço 60 Boulevard Chanzy, em Montreuil, na região parisiense. Participam da exposição os artistas Loïc Bertrand, Stéphane Boissonot, Lara Bouvet, Soubattra Danasségarane, Draw your fight, Camille Esayan, Alaïa Etchegoin, Jeanne Fasquel, Pierre-Antoine Gruau, Gribouille Superstar e Séverine Schulte.

This summer, the energy company First Solar began construction on a new facility in Iberia Parish in south Louisiana. The $1.1 billion facility marked the beginning of what some say could help turn Louisiana into a robust energy powerhouse rather than just a fossil-fuels economy.  Terrence Chambers, director of the Energy Efficiency and Sustainable Energy Center at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, joins us to talk about the future of solar energy in Louisiana. It's an exciting time for hockey in Louisiana! Not only did we recently saw the sport's return at the minor league level with the Baton Rouge Zydeco, but just weeks later, the first Bayou State native made his debut in the National Hockey League. Baton Rouge-born Mason Lohrei, of Baton Rouge, plays for the Boston Bruins and his father, David Lohrei, once coached Baton Rouge Kingfish, a team that played here from 1996 until 2003. Mason and David Lohrei joined Louisiana Considered's managing producer, Alana Schreiber, for more on their journeys in the sport and what it means to finally have a Louisianan on the NHL ice. Last Saturday was Veterans Day, and one way to honor former service members is to learn a bit more about their history in our region. For many Black soldiers returning from World War I, health care was hard to come by. That changed in 1923, when the Veterans Bureau, now the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, established a hospital in Tuskegee, Ala., to treat Black veterans from around the country. One hundred years later, it's still in operation. NPR's Debbie Elliott paid a visit to learn more.  Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Adam Vos.

Missouri shows little progress in cutting rates of new cancer cases, according to the latest American Lung Association report. The ALA also found the state ranked fourth in the nation for lung cancer patients receiving no treatment after diagnosis. Kavahn Mansouri, investigative reporter with the NPR Midwest Newsroom, and Laura Turner, advocacy director for the American Lung Association in Missouri, dig into these statistics and other takeaways from the report.

Libraries can be a lifeline for incarcerated or detained individuals and their families. In Episode 89, Call Number discusses creative programs in prison libraries. First, poets and prison reform activists Reginald Dwayne Betts and Randall Horton talked with former ALA Executive Director Tracie D. Hall back in an interview conducted last July. Betts and Horton, who were formerly incarcerated, now spearhead respective literary program: Betts founded Freedom Reads, which installs 500-book Freedom Libraries in prisons and juvenile detention centers, and Horton cofounded Radical Reversal, which holds literary and musical workshops and creates performance and recording spaces in detention centers and correctional facilities. They discussed the importance of access to books while incarcerated, how censorship creates barriers to that access, and what they hope for ALA's newly revised Standards for Library Services for the Incarcerated or Detained. Then, American Libraries Associate Editor and Call Number host Diana Panuncial speaks with Lisa Prins, manager of adult and community education, and Allison Sivak, faculty engagement librarian, both at University of Alberta in Edmonton. In 2022, the university launched its Correspondence Book Club at the Edmonton Institution for Women, which provides women who are incarcerated with themed writing and art-making prompts. They were joined by Mariel Silva, a formerly incarcerated individual and former book club participant. Note: The sound quality in the Correspondence Book Club segment varies.

So much happened in The Sunlit Man, that we recorded two lore episodes discussing all of it, and honestly, we probably could have done more. In this one, we talk about the Charred, sunhearts, Nomad's abilities, and the Torment. But really, this episode is maybe the most off-the-rails and unhinged we have ever been, while also being the most in-depth lore-wise ever. Get your bingo cards. We open with "Can the Charred talk?" and it goes from there. This episode, we have Eric (Chaos), David (Windrunner), Evgeni (Argent), Grace (thegatorgirl), and Ala (Rasarr).

Drive throughout the South and you'll encounter towns that were once full of culture and community, and now appear nearly abandoned. Sometimes the change comes from environmental shifts, but sometimes the causes are man-made.  Throughout this week, the Gulf States Newsroom is bringing you three stories about ghost towns in our region, called “Place, Erased.” Today, reporters Drew Hawkins and Danny McArthur discuss how this project came to be. Then, Danny travels to Easonville, Ala., where the few remaining residents remember the flood that nearly wiped out their community.  This weekend, The National World War II Museum in New Orleans will open its final permanent exhibition: The Liberation Pavilion. This exhibit will aim to educate viewers about the end of the war and its lasting impact today.  Michael Bell, the executive director of the museum's Institute for the Study of War and Democracy, joins us for more on how this exhibition came to be. This month marks 100 years of Disney, and as many New Orleanians know, there are plenty of connections between our city and the Disney universe. The New Orleans-inspired resorts at theme parks and “The Princess and the Frog” movie are just two examples of the influence of this city on the Disney company – and on Walt Disney himself. Joan Feder, a former Disney travel writer for AllEars.net and self-described Disney aficionada, joins us for more on the links between the Disney franchise and the Big Easy.  Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Diane Mack.

From inhaler watches to redesigned crutches: How a unique summer program in Birmingham is pushing boundaries in STEM education. This episode of TFIC explores the MedTech Device Experience program in Birmingham, Ala., and previews an upcoming documentary on how the unique summer program is pushing boundaries in STEM education for high school students from diverse backgrounds. The program's director, Mark Conner, discusses how the program introduces students to design methodology for developing medical devices that solve real problems. SHOW NOTES Here are the top 10 takeaways from this episode: Deep Dive into Prototyping: The MedTech Design Experience brings together students from varied backgrounds who are paired with expert instructors for hands-on training in prototyping advanced medical devices during a two-week summer program in Birmingham. Applied Innovation: Students are challenged to innovate medical prototypes that address real-world problems. Academic Inspiration: Collaboration with the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) inspired the program; students are taught to visualize ideas and apply new information effectively. Imagining the Future, and Then Building It: Graduates came away with a better sense of the transformative nature of MedTech and their potential role in it, widening their future aspirations. Real-World Solutions: The program produced innovative designs like an inhaler watch. Another group redesigned crutch prototypes for better stair navigation, showcasing problem-solving using technology. Engaging Professionals: The program director stresses the importance of industry professional involvement and real-world application in the program's success. Getting the Right Mix: It and similar programs require buy-in from leadership and professionals, as well as opportunities for hands-on experience. Place Matters: The program was hosted in Hardware Park — a hub for engineering, innovation, product development, and manufacturing in downtown Birmingham — that carries forward an industrial vibe and a blue collar attitude for getting things done. Moving Forward: Future plans involve expanding the program from its base — collaborating with more schools, and partnering with Birmingham's tech hubs. The MedTech Experience Documentary: Cameras were rolling as the students learned during the two-week program. The documentary's premiere and watch party is scheduled for Nov. 7 at Hardware Park.

Avsnitt 415 av Tyngre Träningssnack handlar om omega-3 och mer specifikt fettsyrorna EPA och DHA. Jacob summerar och diskuterar det han lärde sig medan han skrev artikeln, ”Omega-3 index – är det värt att bry sig om?”. I avsnittet får du lära dig lite om olika fettsyror och varför omega-3 tillskott länge har varit ett populärt tillskott. Jacob berättar också om hur forskningen ser ut idag när det gäller effekterna från omega-3 tillskott och vilka råd som finns kring intaget. Till sist blir det en lång diskussion kring det som kallas för omega-3 index vilket är ett bra mått på en människas genomsnittliga intag av EPA och DHA över lite längre tid. I observationsstudier ser man ett tydligt samband mellan lågt omega-3 index och sämre hälsa men det är fortfarande lite oklart om vilket omega-3 index som ska räknas som ”optimalt”. På Tyngre Träningssnacks instagram kan du hitta bilder relaterat till detta och tidigare avsnitt.

(00:52:07) Jacob tar inte något omega-3 tillskott (00:54:51) Rent mekanistiskt så verkar celler med högre omega-3 index fungera något bättre (00:56:35) Om man ska köpa tillskott så kan kvaliten variera (01:00:25) Det finns forskare med ekonomiska incitament kring omega-3 index som har stor påverka på litteraturen (01:04:04) Det finns läkemedel som ger EPA och/eller DHA där du kan lita mycket mer på innehållet (01:06:04) Summering och vad Jacob och Wille tror kring att ta det som tillskott i framtiden

In a chilling revelation, Joran van der Sloot has confessed to the murder of Natalee Holloway, almost two decades after she vanished in Aruba. The 36-year-old's confession was obtained by PEOPLE, shedding light on one of the most enigmatic cases in recent memory.    According to the partial transcript, van der Sloot admitted to attempting to seduce Natalee on a beach. However, after the 18-year-old declined his advances, he attacked her. Van der Sloot stated, "she tells me 'no'… Uh, I insist. I keep feeling her up either way." In the ensuing altercation, he kicked her in the face, leaving her "unconscious, possibly even... dead," and then brutally struck her with a cinder block he found nearby.    This heart-wrenching confession provides insights into the final hours of Natalee Holloway, an aspiring doctor who had traveled to Aruba to celebrate her high school graduation. She had been last seen leaving a bar with van der Sloot earlier that day.    Van der Sloot recounted the chilling aftermath of the crime, saying he pulled Natalee's body into the ocean, let it drift away, and simply "walked home." This admission fills the void of years of speculation and anguish for Natalee's family.    However, due to the statute of limitations for murder in Aruba, which stands at 12 years, it is unlikely that van der Sloot will face prosecution for this heinous crime.    Further compounding the family's agony, Natalee was legally declared dead in 2012, but her remains have never been located. Making matters even more convoluted, van der Sloot had deceitfully extorted about $25,000 from Natalee's mother, Beth Holloway, in 2010. He falsely promised her answers about her daughter's mysterious disappearance.    The deception did not end there. Van der Sloot subsequently used the extorted funds to flee to Peru. It was there that he committed another appalling crime: the murder of a 21-year-old student, Stephany Flores Ramírez. Eerily, this murder occurred exactly five years to the day of Natalee's disappearance.    The web of crimes stretched even further. Van der Sloot's confession emerged as part of a plea agreement related to a federal case in Alabama, where he faced charges of extortion and fraud. He was handed a 20-year sentence for these financial crimes. This sentencing will run alongside his 28-year prison term in Peru. However, should he be released early from the Peruvian jail, he will be obligated to serve the remainder of his 20-year sentence in the U.S.    The years of anguish have taken a toll on Natalee's family. However, this latest development has provided a semblance of closure. Outside the Birmingham, Ala. courthouse, Natalee's mother, Beth, remarked that van der Sloot's confession and subsequent sentencing meant "the end" to their "never-ending nightmare." She poignantly stated, "It feels victorious. Like we finally transitioned from the victim to the victor."    The Holloway case, with its twists and turns, has gripped the nation for years. While justice may seem elusive in terms of a direct prosecution for Natalee's murder, the recent revelations and sentences offer some respite to a family that has endured unimaginable pain.

In a chilling revelation, Joran van der Sloot has confessed to the murder of Natalee Holloway, almost two decades after she vanished in Aruba. The 36-year-old's confession was obtained by PEOPLE, shedding light on one of the most enigmatic cases in recent memory.    According to the partial transcript, van der Sloot admitted to attempting to seduce Natalee on a beach. However, after the 18-year-old declined his advances, he attacked her. Van der Sloot stated, "she tells me 'no'… Uh, I insist. I keep feeling her up either way." In the ensuing altercation, he kicked her in the face, leaving her "unconscious, possibly even... dead," and then brutally struck her with a cinder block he found nearby.    This heart-wrenching confession provides insights into the final hours of Natalee Holloway, an aspiring doctor who had traveled to Aruba to celebrate her high school graduation. She had been last seen leaving a bar with van der Sloot earlier that day.    Van der Sloot recounted the chilling aftermath of the crime, saying he pulled Natalee's body into the ocean, let it drift away, and simply "walked home." This admission fills the void of years of speculation and anguish for Natalee's family.    However, due to the statute of limitations for murder in Aruba, which stands at 12 years, it is unlikely that van der Sloot will face prosecution for this heinous crime.    Further compounding the family's agony, Natalee was legally declared dead in 2012, but her remains have never been located. Making matters even more convoluted, van der Sloot had deceitfully extorted about $25,000 from Natalee's mother, Beth Holloway, in 2010. He falsely promised her answers about her daughter's mysterious disappearance.    The deception did not end there. Van der Sloot subsequently used the extorted funds to flee to Peru. It was there that he committed another appalling crime: the murder of a 21-year-old student, Stephany Flores Ramírez. Eerily, this murder occurred exactly five years to the day of Natalee's disappearance.    The web of crimes stretched even further. Van der Sloot's confession emerged as part of a plea agreement related to a federal case in Alabama, where he faced charges of extortion and fraud. He was handed a 20-year sentence for these financial crimes. This sentencing will run alongside his 28-year prison term in Peru. However, should he be released early from the Peruvian jail, he will be obligated to serve the remainder of his 20-year sentence in the U.S.    The years of anguish have taken a toll on Natalee's family. However, this latest development has provided a semblance of closure. Outside the Birmingham, Ala. courthouse, Natalee's mother, Beth, remarked that van der Sloot's confession and subsequent sentencing meant "the end" to their "never-ending nightmare." She poignantly stated, "It feels victorious. Like we finally transitioned from the victim to the victor."    The Holloway case, with its twists and turns, has gripped the nation for years. While justice may seem elusive in terms of a direct prosecution for Natalee's murder, the recent revelations and sentences offer some respite to a family that has endured unimaginable pain.
