Comeback Slaters Deny Wilson 33-25
For the second time this year Bangor overcame a three-touchdown deficit to defeat Wilson after trailing 25-7 late in the first half to deny a Wilson upset and keep the Warriors winless. Sauvaughn Vass (7) scored four touchdowns and rushed for 167 yards raising his season total to 1202 yards and 15 TDs. Jesse Rocco (36) rushed for 178 yards and earned this year’s David Hopstetter Award. Robert Green’s 33-yard pick-six in the waning seconds sealed the deal. PHOTO GALLERY Sbtt Photos Larry Cory

Female Elk Lead Bull to Strip Mall

ESTES PARK, Colo., Oct. 21 (UPI) -- Shoppers at a Colorado strip mall were stunned to spot a group of unusual window-shoppers -- a bull elk and his seven female companions.
A video posted to Facebook by John Burns shows the bull bringing up the rear of the elk procession earlier this month at an outdoor shopping center in Estes Park.
Shocked shoppers can be seem stopping to gawk and take photos as the animals calmly walk past the stores and pause to peek in the shop windows.
Locals said it's not unusual to see elk or other wildlife from the adjacent Rocky Mountain National Park in the city, but the herd of window shoppers made for a strange scene.

October 22, 1962 - President John F. Kennedy appeared on television to inform Americans of the existence of Russian missiles in Cuba. The President demanded their removal and announced a naval "quarantine" of Cuba. Six days later, the Russians announced they would remove the weapons. In return, the U.S. later removed missiles from Turkey.
October 22, 1979 - The exiled Shah of Iran arrived in the United States for medical treatment. A few weeks later, Iranian militants seized the U.S. Embassy in Tehran and took 66 Americans hostage. They demanded the return of the Shah for trial. The U.S. refused. The Shah died of cancer in July of 1980. The hostages were freed in January of 1981. |

A Life Half Full: Aging With Optimism

(NewsUSA) - Sponsored News - As Americans age, one element seems to be key for their mental and physical health: optimism. That's the finding suggested by a new Humana survey, which asked Americans age 60 and over how they perceive the importance of various wellness traits.
Although the survey uncovered many perspectives, the findings about optimism suggest a possible link between a "glass half full" mentality and mental and physical health:
* Older Americans who rated themselves as very optimistic about aging tended to be the most active physically, socially and in their communities.
* They also reported a much lower number of physically unhealthy days per month on average: 2.84 for the most optimistic, compared to 12.55 physically unhealthy days for the least optimistic
* The most optimistic also felt on average 12 years younger than their actual age (those who are least optimistic felt on average 7 years older than their actual age).
The survey also asked respondents to rate how they feel about the depiction of people age 60 and over in pop culture: in film, television, commercials and so on. Overwhelmingly, the respondents perceived these media portrayals of their own demographic as inaccurate, rating the accuracy level as, on average, 5 or less on a 10-point scale. Those aging Americans who do feel that media accurately portrays them think about aging more than the average and have a higher level of fear about aging than their peers.
Humana also recently partnered with The University of Southern California (USC) to take a first-ever look into society's views of aging in America through the lens of film. The USC studyreveals that characters aged 60 and over are underrepresented in film, and that those characters who do appear face demeaning or ageist references. Key findings from the study include:
* Just 11 percent of characters evaluated were aged 60 and over; U.S. Census data shows that 18.5 percent of the population is aged 60 and over.
* Out of 57 films that featured a leading or supporting senior character, 30 featured ageist comments -- that's more than half of the films. Quotes included characters being called "a relic," "a frail old woman" and "a senile old man."
* Only 29.1 percent of on-screen characters engaged with technology, whereas 84 percent of aging Americans report that they use the internet weekly.
Taken together, these findings feed into growing evidence that suggest that ageism is a social determinant of health and may negatively impact health outcomes for aging Americans. Societal views and negative media portrayals can cause aging Americans to feel invisible. These negative perceptions may dampen optimistic outlooks and impact physical and emotional health.
Humana wants to help aging Americans defy stereotypes, age with optimism and take steps to achieve their best health. To learn more about Humana's commitment to healthy aging, visitStartWithHealthy.Humana.com.

Stem Cells, Biologics Could Be Answer to Next Generation Therapies

(NewsUSA) - Sponsored News - Biotech stocks tend to have their ups and downs among the investment community. However, the biotech industry is enjoying a shot in the arm with news of biologics flooding the wires.
Biologics, say experts, are different from traditional drugs because they are manufactured in a living system, such as a microorganism or plant or animal cells, rather than with synthesized chemicals. And because of the strides made in this biotechnology specialty, it is attracting the attention of the pharma big boys.
All the major players are looking to capture their share of a market that IMS Health analysts estimate will rise to $390 billion by 2020. In short, if the analysts are right, biologics will command nearly one-third of all spending on drugs in the next few years. Couple this with a marketing plan to the public that underscores biologics as natural derivatives instead of man-made, and it's easy to see why so much money is being poured into this area.
With patent expirations drawing near, and companies looking to get a leg up on their competition, big pharma will be looking to boutique firms in this space to get an edge on next-generation therapies.
Enter Endonovo Therapeutics (OTCQB: ENDV), a biotechnology company that is developing a bioelectronic approach to regenerative medicine through its premier platform, Cytotronics. While most biologics are formed using recombinant DNA technology, "Endonovo is falling back on its technology, which dates back to research at NASA seeking to develop stem cells and medical devices to treat potential injuries that astronauts might encounter during long term missions in outer space." In this way, the company is using Time-Varying Electromagnetic Field (TVEMF) technology to increase the therapeutic properties of stem cells. This, says the company, is accomplished through stimulation of magnetically induced electrical field pathways of cells and tissues.
Endonovo CEO Alan Collier describes the technology as "effectively training cells to secrete therapeutic proteins." The secreted proteins can include those commonly used in biologics, such as G-CSF (granulocyte-colony stimulating factor), GM-CSF (granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor), erythropoietin and interleukins that are used in angiogenesis, antigentargeting, promoting white blood cell growth to fight infections, and more.
Endonovo's mission is two-fold: to validate the potential of injecting "enhanced" or "trained" stem cells, but also to deliver a cocktail of therapeutic proteins that could exert their influence over inflammation while promoting tissue healing.
