In Focus 10-26-24 - Jeremy Flowers and Nicole Henry with the East Texas Crisis Center (repeat)

Michael Phelps, the Olympic legend with 28 medals, made waves this week with a high-profile visit to Utah on Wednesday, where he toured the University of Utah's Huntsman Mental Health Institute Crisis Care Center. KSL News reports Phelps was deeply inspired by the 24/7 walk-in facility, dedicated in 2021, calling it a game-changer for athletes facing unseen battles—just like his own struggles with depression and anxiety. He told reporters, per Deseret News, that every state needs this kind of round-the-clock support to smash the mental health stigma he's fought to dismantle. Ahead of his appearance at the Governor's State of Sport Awards, Phelps pushed for beefed-up resources at the 2028 LA Games and Utah's 2034 Winter Olympics, hoping to spark global conversations on athlete wellness.This trip underscores Phelps' evolving post-retirement mission, blending advocacy with his enduring Olympic legacy—potentially a pivotal biographical chapter as he shapes the next era of sports mental health. No major business moves or social media buzz surfaced in the past few days, though his Michael Phelps Foundation quietly advanced the "Make Every Race Count" campaign with Special Olympics, equipping coaches to cut disqualifications and turn swimmers' setbacks into triumphs, according to their site.In the last 24 hours, no blockbuster headlines have dropped on Phelps, keeping the spotlight on his Utah advocacy push. All details here are verified from reliable outlets like KSL, Deseret News, and official foundation pages—no speculation or unconfirmed whispers.Thanks for listening, and please subscribe to never miss an update on Michael Phelps and search the term Biography Flash for more great Biographies.

Carmel residents say they fear crime, drugs A proposal to open a 24-hour drop-in crisis program in an office building off Route 6 drew both love and hate from Town of Carmel residents in public hearings. Everyone seemed to love the idea behind People USA's Stabilization Center, an urgent care for behavioral health where children, teens or adults suffering a mental-health or substance-abuse emergency could be treated and linked with services. But some people hated its location near their businesses and residences. "I have no doubt that it will help those in crisis," said one woman, identifying herself as the person attacked in October by a homeless man on a trail in Carmel. "But adding another facility that serves people in crisis so close to homes, local businesses, senior communities and the rail trail is not appropriate." The Planning Board agreed. On Jan. 28, Carmel became the second Putnam County town after Brewster to reject the Stabilization Center, delivering what may be a fatal blow to an idea championed by County Executive Kevin Byrne. In a statement, Byrne said he would reappropriate $2.5 million in federal American Rescue Plan funds allocated to the project. "We will continue working with providers, community partners and municipal leaders to increase public safety and expand access to care through evidence-based approaches, including but not limited to mobile crisis response and other prevention efforts," he said. Some of the people attending the Carmel Planning Board meeting applauded as Craig Paeprer, the board's chair, announced the 6-to-0 vote by its members to deny an application by People USA, which operates crisis centers in Dutchess and Ulster counties, to open one in an office building near the Putnam Plaza Shopping Center. People USA said the center would have been staffed with certified counselors, social workers and peer specialists, assisting up to eight people at a time, and would have had security trained in de-escalation techniques on-site from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. A public hearing in November began with a video shot at People USA's Stabilization Center in Poughkeepsie, which opened in 2017 as a collaboration with Dutchess County. The video showed a "hope room" where people are assessed, areas where those waiting to go home or be taken to another program can rest, read books or play games and a room for children and their families. A procession of speakers who followed the video presented different images — homeless people loitering in the nearby 24-hour McDonald's on Route 6, deputies dropping off inmates released from the Putnam County jail, discarded syringes and home invasions. The board's resolution rejecting the project cited multiple reasons, including the center's incompatibility with the area's other businesses and Carmel's "long experience with Arms Acres," a nearby residential substance-abuse treatment facility. Arms Acres and "similar programs" potentially "require a disproportionate commitment of community services, particularly police and emergency services," according to the Planning Board. Residents in Brewster invoked similar concerns as those in Carmel when they rallied in 2023 against People USA's plan to lease space above the Over the Rainbow Learning Center at a shopping center in the village, which is part of the Town of Southeast. The Town Board responded by approving in October 2023 a six-month moratorium on permits for medical and mental-health clinics, including a "mental health crisis or stabilization center." Twelve days later, residents attending a public forum on the center conjured images of intoxicated clients loitering outside, endangering children and littering the ground with drug paraphernalia. Byrne said in a letter to residents the following month that he directed People USA to abandon the Brewster location, setting off the search that led to Carmel. The organization, in its proposal to the Carmel Planning Board, said Southeast had "prejudged the application b...

Dr. Robert Young rose to prominence in the world of holistic medicine claiming cancer was not a cell, but rather poisonous acid in the body, so a diet rich in alkaline would neutralize it. The charismatic practitioner opened the so-called Miracle Ranch, where sick people sought expensive treatments to balance their pH. Though he doled out advice and performed baking soda IVs, Young had never been to medical school. And as his devoted followers favored vegetable smoothies instead of chemotherapy, their conditions worsened. “Chameleon: Dr. Miracle” is the latest season of the podcast from Campside Media, Sony Music Entertainment, and Dorothy Street Pictures. Host Larrison Campbell recounts Young's pseudoscientific alkaline diet and talks to ranch employees and patients who received his quack treatments.

When we last listened to season three of “In the Dark,” Madeleine Baran had collected signatures from the families of the Haditha victims, hoping to obtain secret photographs of the massacre. In the final episodes of the season, the team gives the pictures to an analyst who says the images are clear evidence of a war crime. Military prosecutors eventually charged eight Marines for killing two dozen unarmed Iraqi men, women and children. But a cascade of immunity offers, intervention by commanding officers, and a generous plea bargain meant no one was held accountable for the murders in any meaningful way.The final episodes of “In the Dark” season three probes what went wrong with the prosecution of the infantrymen who rounded up and slaughtered civilians in retaliation for an IED attack. And while the number of victims in Haditha have been listed as 24, Baran and her team find evidence the number is too low.OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "IN THE DARK" EPISODES 6 THROUGH 9 BEGIN IN THE FINAL 11 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.
