They discuss the significance of Blenheim Palace, its new exhibitions, the challenges of conserving historical garments, and the evolution of public engagement in heritage conservation. Carmen shares insights into the Ladies of Blenheim exhibition, the legacy of Winston Churchill, and future projects aimed at enhancing visitor experiences. Links Blenheim Palace Official Website Ladies of Blenheim Exhibition Meet the Collections Team Great British Houses - Blenheim Palace John 1st Duke of Marlborough Great Britons Winston Churchill Takeaways Blenheim Palace is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a significant historical landmark. The Ladies of Blenheim exhibition highlights the fashion and stories of remarkable women in the palace's history. Conservation of historical garments requires meticulous care and innovative techniques. Public engagement has evolved significantly over the past 75 years at Blenheim Palace. Winston Churchill's connection to Blenheim is deeply rooted in his family history and personal experiences. The conservation team faces unique challenges due to the palace's living environment. Blenheim Palace aims to make exhibitions accessible and engaging for all visitors. Future projects will focus on immersive experiences to enhance visitor understanding of history. The palace's collection includes unique items that reflect its rich heritage and history. Carmen Alvarez's journey from welcome team supervisor to conservation manager showcases the importance of passion and dedication in heritage conservation. Sound Bites 1. The Lost Dress Discovery (26:15-26:45) "Everyone thought it was lost, but it was in there all along. Just everyone was picturing it white. And because of course the silk with the time and damage, light damage and everything has turned that ivory color... So I found the lost dress. So for me that is something that I hope to be remembered by." 2. The Reused Coronation Gown (5:53-6:10) "After the war, the country was coming out, the clothes rationing. So she didn't want to spend too much money on new garments and everything around it. So she decided to repurpose and reuse what was worn by Consuelo Vanderbilt in 1911 and worn twice." 3. Conservation Challenges (8:08-8:25) "We will never be a museum. We are a living space. So as much as you want to control the environment, environmental levels, like the temperature, humidity, the light levels... When it's hot, we need to open windows." 4. The "Angriest Curator" Method (15:12-15:19) "Normally people say that the best way of conserving things is having the angriest curator shouting at people. So maybe that helps as well." 5. First Thing After Closing (28:43-28:50) "The first thing, hoovering, to be 100% honest. This is so important, actually. The guides... they grab the hoovers and they hoover the whole palace." 6. Winston's Best Decisions (35:53-36:05) "He said that he made the two best decisions of his life, that Blenheim would want to be born and the other one to marry, because he proposed to Clementine, his wife, at the Temple of Diana at Blenheim Palace." 7. Heritage Belongs to Everyone (39:04-39:15) "I'm a believer that heritage does not belong to one single person or a group of people. Heritage is something that is a witness of the past, of the history of a group, a nation." 8. The Roof Reality Check (40:28-41:03) "You walk into the building and you think, my God, this place is incredible. It's so well preserved... But you would never know how many buckets were holding the leaks, the water filtration coming from the actual roof." 9. The Strong 10th Duchess (11:52-12:05) "It's funny because her husband wrote that she was a female general while he was only a captain. I think that represents her character. She was very much involved with the family, with the local community, with the charity." 10. Making History Accessible (45:27-45:40) "We want to do it in a way that we know our guests are gonna enjoy... how can we share the history of Blenheim in different ways. Rather than a printed board, let's do it in a different way."

Tick season may be ramping up, but in Delaware, the risk never really goes away.That's according to Ashley Kennedy – tick biologist for the state Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control – who says Delaware's mild winters, diverse habitat, and year-round activity are changing how we think about tick exposure.This week, Delaware Public Media's Joe Irizarry sits down with Kennedy to discuss tick season and how to protect yourself.

Environmental Control …..Definitely the most important aspect of commercial growing. The difference between success and failure. This week we have left the control of our whole show to our first guest Michael the man behind @tricleanair with 20 years of experience with environmental control in commercial gardens Michael saw the need for purpose built DHVAC units, which is an All-In-One system that can control Temperature, Humidity, and CO2 also TriFog Humidity Control systems and DirOxy Dissolved Oxygen Injection systems. Lots of tech talk, but on top of that Michael has created community with some of our old friends such as Ruga from @grassrootscalifornia who rumour has it might be LIVE in studio. We will also talk to some new friends and some of his successful clients such as Bean from @maven_genetics out of LA who believe that everyone who seeks more from cannabis is a connoisseur, an enthusiast, and a true Maven. Also joining the convo is Lance aka @craft_farmer707 who is utilizing Under Canopy lighting and crushing it by the way and finally Jacob @mi_gas from @sevenpointsupply out of Danville Illinois who like our other guests are creating craft cannabis on scale which can only be done with the right equipment which luckily dedicated people like Michael have designed from the ground up.

A City on Mars: Can we settle space, should we settle space, and have we really thought this through? – That is the title of a book published in late 2023 which then became an instant NY Times bestseller and went on to win a 2024 Hugo Award. My guest this week is Kelly Weinersmith, one of its two authors, together with her husband. The book is a critical, and humorously written, examination of the question of whether humanity should settle space. It touches on everything ranging from legal aspects all the way to having babies in Space. For me as a die-hard proponent of humanity settling in space, this was a fun and insightful conversation to have.

Public health agencies had to rapidly innovate during COVID-19, and one of those innovations was virtual restaurant inspections. Beginning in March 2020, COVID-19 social distancing and stay-at-home orders required many food establishments to adopt takeout and/or food delivery models. To ensure that establishments were abiding by food safety rules and to protect the health of professionals who inspect these facilities, some state health agencies implemented virtual inspection protocols. This podcast showcases how one state health department pivoted during the pandemic and how they are continuing to use this innovation now and in the future.

You know her, you love her, Marybeth Sanchez is back on the main podcast! Today Marybeth shares her deep passion for outdoor gardening, and gives us some incredible tips on how to control your environment (as best you can) in an outdoor setting. Marybeth discusses the importance of mulching through the entire episode, and she emphasizes the variety of benefits it brings from shielding the soil from sun, to reducing root temperatures, and more. She talks about a variety of mulch options, and which ones you should and shouldn't apply to your garden beds. This leads to a larger conversation about root zone temperature, and how in an outdoor grow it is often most beneficial to focus on shading and cooling your POTS rather than your CANOPY. MBS also discusses shade cloths before wrapping the show, which percentage of shading is right for you, and when it's best to grow your plants under stippled shade instead of a full blown shade cloth! *Code growcast15 now works with grow KITS from AC Infinity! www.acinfinity.com use promo code growcast15 for 15% off the BEST grow fans in the game, plus tents, pots, scissors, LED lights, and now GROW KITS!* *PROUD NEW PARTNERS: Pulse Grow Room Monitors, industry leader in grow room data and monitoring!

Episode 85: Detecting Dementia and Evusheld®. Parneeta Singh explained a new blood test to predict Alzheimer's disease and an artificial-intelligence cognitive test for early detection of dementia. Dr Saito and Dr Arreaza present Evusheld, a monoclonal antibody for pre-exposure prophylaxis against COVID-19.  Today is March 4, 2022. Today marks the 2-year anniversary of our podcast. We have been bringing you relevant clinical information for 2 years, almost every week. We hope you have found this podcast useful. If you have learned at least one thing from us, our goal has been reached. This podcast started as an experiment and it has become an enriching experience for students, residents, faculty, and all of you who listen to us throughout the world. We look forward to many more years of education, updates, and fun! Thanks for listening.Introduction: Innovative ways to detect dementia: Alzosure Predict® and CognICA® By Parneeta Singh, MD, Ross University School of Medicine; comments by Hector Arreaza, MD.   Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurocognitive disorder that is the most common cause of dementia. More than 6 million Americans aged 65 and older have the late-onset subtype while many more between ages 30 and 60s have the early-onset subtype although the latter is very rare. One of the first signs of AD is memory issues. A decline in other aspects of thinking, impaired judgment or reasoning, visual/spatial problems can also indicate early stages of AD. Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) can also be considered an early sign of AD. However, not everyone with MCI will develop the disease. As the disease progresses, people with AD have trouble performing daily activities such as cooking, driving, managing their finances while some have personality changes as well. According to the Alzheimer's Association, two abnormal structures called plaques (deposits of a protein fragment called beta-amyloid that builds up between neurons) and tangles (twisted fibers of another protein called tau that builds up inside neurons) are most probably responsible for the damaging effects seen in AD. Patients with AD develop plaques and tangles initially in parts of the brain involved in memory, such as the entorhinal cortex and hippocampus, before affecting other parts of the brain such as the cerebral cortex which is responsible for reasoning, social behavior, and language. Today, AD is at the forefront of biomedical research with earlier diagnoses and interventions improving drastically. New research conducted by Diadem (a diagnostic company that focuses on AD research) exhibited that a novel blood test called Alzosure Predict® identifies a variant of the protein p53 which seems to predict AD's progression up to 6 years before a clinical diagnosis is made. This blood test measures a derivative of p53 (U-p53AZ) which is implicated in AD pathogenesis. Blood samples from patients aged 60 years and older who had different levels of cognitive function were analyzed which showed that the test predicted a decline from MCI to AD at the end of 6 years. The test can also classify a patient's cognition stage. The positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) were at 90%. Knowing which patients will progress to AD allows them to try treatments earlier on the disease when therapies are most likely to be more effective. Additionally, using the test could speed up the approval of prospective drug treatments and allow those patients with a likelihood of developing AD to enroll in clinical studies. Patients can also be monitored during a study instead of relying on costly PET scans and painful lumbar punctures. These findings were presented at the 14th Clinical Trials on Alzheimer's Disease (CTAD) conference in November 2021.Another way to detect dementia early on is by an artificial intelligence cognitive assessment called Cognetivity's Integrated Cognitive Assessment (CognICA®) which has been cleared by the US Food and Drug Administration in October 2021. It is a 5-minute computerized cognitive assessment that is completed using an iPad. It has numerous advantages over traditional pen and paper-based cognitive tests such as avoidance of cultural or educational bias, absence of learning effect upon repeat testing, its high sensitivity to detect early-stage cognitive impairment, and since it is computer-based, it can be self-administered and performed remotely. In conclusion, reliable, simple, cost-effective measures of cognition are critical for providing quality care whether it is in the field of family medicine, neurology, or geriatrics. According to Percy Griffin, Ph.D., MSc, director of scientific engagement at the Alzheimer's Association, the ability of such technologies to detect dementia before significant loss of brain cells “would be game-changing” for individuals, their families, and the healthcare system at large. This is Rio Bravo qWeek, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California.

Edited by Hector Arreaza, MD. Collaboration: Steven Saito, MD.This monoclonal antibody is for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) of COVID-19, which means it is given prior to exposure to the virus. Evusheld is not a replacement for COVID-19 vaccines, and everyone eligible to receive one of the safe and effective COVID-19 vaccines should do so.It is meant to give protection to those who are unable to mount an adequate immune response against COVID 19 after vaccination. It was given an emergency authorization use by FDA on December 8, 2021. EVUSHELD is tixagevimab co-packaged with cilgavimab, two long-acting antibodies. This medication may be effective for pre-exposure prevention up to six months.It was designed to be given to the immunocompromised population and for anyone who cannot receive the vaccine, as long as the patient is older than 12 years and more than 88 pounds.  (We totally make the cut). If your patient has a health condition that won't allow their immune system to develop a strong enough response to the COVID-19 vaccine, for example, they are immunocompromised because of cancer, they can receive Evusheld. If they are taking medications that prevent a strong enough response to the COVID-19 vaccine, for example, chemotherapy or transplant anti-rejection medications, they can receive Evusheld.If they are unable to get the vaccine due to anaphylaxis to all of the COVID-19 vaccines or their ingredients, they can receive Evusheld.Monoclonal antibodies are lab-made proteins that mimic the immune system's way of fighting off infections. The two antibodies in Evusheld are long-acting and are made to specifically fight off against SARS-CoV-2. Evusheld is administered by two injections immediately given one after another.In a recent study done looking at how effective Evusheld was, it showed a 77% reduced risk of developing COVID-19 compared to individuals who received placebo. This study was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in adults older than 59 years old or with a prespecified chronic medical condition or at increased risk for COVID-19 and for other reasons didn't receive the vaccine and have no prior history of COVID-19. Some side effects of the medication include hypersensitivity reactions, bleeding at injection site, headache, fatigue, and cough. If you would like to provide this monoclonal antibody Evusheld to your patients, as well as other treatments such as Paxlovid, Molnupiravir, sotrovimab, and bebtelovimab, consult the COVID-19 Therapeutics Locator provided by the office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness & Response. You can do a Google search for HHS COVID-19 Therapeutics locator or you can find the link in the notes of this episode. [https://covid-19-therapeutics-locator-dhhs.hub.arcgis.com/]________________________________Now we conclude our episode number 85 “Detecting Dementia and Evusheld” You listened to Dr Singh present some new promising ways to recognize Alzheimer's disease early and detect those who are at risk of progression. We are all hoping for a simple way to diagnose Alzheimer's, and in the near future, we may have a blood test that can help us diagnose this devastating disease. Also, you heard about Evusheld, the new monoclonal antibody given Emergency Use Authorization by FDA for pre-exposure prophylaxis for COVID-19. Consult the Therapeutics Locator to see the availability in your area. Even without trying, every night you go to bed being a little wiser.Thanks for listening to Rio Bravo qWeek.

Indoor cannabis cultivation promises total control over the growing environment. That means no weather disruptions, no surprises from a changing climate, and all-year growing. However, as many indoor cultivators have discovered, controlled environment agriculture (CEA) is still prone to fluctuations. Pockets of stagnant air develop underneath the canopy in a large flower room. Outdoor seasonal changes still impact the indoor temperature and relative humidity. In another example, relative humidity spikes in response to changes in the plants themselves. These ongoing fluctuations are why cultivators, both large and small, turn to automation and advanced grow room controls.
