My Tribute to Kyle Mangas

I purposely waited until Kyle Mangas’ career at Indiana Wesleyan was completed to write this blog post. Now that it’s completed, here goes…..

Kyle Mangas is from Warsaw, IN, and he’s the son of Tim and Ann Mangas, and the younger brother of Jake Mangas. Tim was a 1,000-point scorer in high school, and Ann led her high school team to the state championship game. Jake was a forward on the Warsaw High School basketball team, the quarterback on the football team and was the Valedictorian of his class.

As a senior at Warsaw in 2016-17, Kyle averaged 22.6 points, 5.6 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game to earn Indiana All-Star honors as he led the Tigers to the regional final. He averaged 19.4 points per game as a junior on a team that advanced to the Class 4A north semistate. He scored 1,450 career points at Warsaw, leading the Tigers to a 61-17 record in his three seasons as a starter. Remarkably, however, he wasn’t heavily recruited…..with the notable exception of Indiana Wesleyan, who had started recruiting him as a freshman in high school. Mangas committed to IWU before his senior season.

He chose IWU in part because of its tremendous basketball program…and in part because they recruited him for so long and he developed a strong relationship with the coaches….and, in great part, because it was the right “fit”. In this case, the right “fit” meant the IAM3rd culture that had been created at IWU by Coach Greg Tonagel. In short, this culture meant God first, others second and yourself third. If you want to be first, you first need to learn to be third. It’s a bit counter-culture in today’s society. This resonated with Kyle, and he embraced the challenges of growing within this culture.

…………

So, where to start with the collegiate career of Kyle Mangas…..

I don’t like to “compare”. It’s natural to try to compare his collegiate career with some of the all-time greats in the NAIA, such as Dick Barnett (Tennesse A&I – now Tennessee State), Travis Grant & Elmore Smith (Kentucky State), Philip Hutcheson & John Pierce (David Lipscomb), Lucious Jackson (Texas Pan American), Bob Love (Southern), Al Tucker (Oklahoma Baptist), Bob Hopkins and Willis Reed (Grambling), Scottie Pippen (Central Arkansas), M.L. Carr & Lloyd (World B) Free (Guilford), Eric Kline (Northern State) and so many others. It’s easy to start talking about some of the all-time greats within all of small college basketball, such as Earl “The Pearl” Monroe (Winston-Salem State), Jerry Sloan (Evansville), Walt Frazier (Southern Illinois), Jack Sikma (Illinois Wesleyan), George Tinsley (Kentucky Wesleyan), John Rinka (Kenyon), John Smith (Winona State), Phil Jackson (North Dakota), and so many more. Yet, as mentioned above, I don’t like to “compare”. As President Theodore Roosevelt said, “Comparison is the thief of joy.” I want to enjoy and appreciate what I just witnessed with the career of Kyle Mangas. As his career, progressed, I think that people that followed closely began to realize that we were watching something special. So let’s not compare. Let’s just enjoy and appreciate.

…………

Before he ever played a game at Indiana Wesleyan, the coaches realized that Kyle was the best player on the team….and it was a really good team (REALLY good). During his freshman year, he led the Wildcats to a 31-7 record, the Crossroads League regular season AND tournament titles AND the NAIA Division II National Championship. In the National Championship game, Kyle went for 23 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists and was named as the tournament’s Most Outstanding Player. For the season, he scored 818 points and averaged 21.5 ppg, 5.2 rpg, 2.9 apg and had 42 steals, while shooting 52.6% fg and 79.5% ft. He was named Crossroads League Player of the Year and First Team NAIA Division II All American.

As a sophomore, IWU went 30-6 and won the Crossroads League regular season AND tournament titles, and reached the NAIA Division II National Quarterfinals. Kyle scored 801 points and averaged 23.6 ppg, 5.0 rpg, 3.8 apg and had 48 steals, while shooting 56.5% fg and 75.5% ft. He was named Crossroads League Player of the Year and First Team NAIA Division II All American.

As a junior, IWU went 29-4 and won the Crossroads League regular season AND tournament titles. The team was really rolling as the headed into the NAIA Division II Tournament, as they had just won their three conference tournament games by 32, 27 and 32 points, respectively. Shortly after they arrived in Sioux Falls, SD, to play their opening round game at the Pentagon, the tournament was cancelled due to COVID-19. This was heart-wrenching for a team that was really talented, and was playing so well. Kyle continued to get better and better, and he scored 860 points and averaged 26.9 ppg, 6.4 rpg, 4.2 apg and had 59 steals, while shooting 55.5% fg and 83.4% ft. He was named Crossroads League Player of the Year, First Team NAIA Division II All American, NAIA Division II National Player of the Year and the winner of the Bevo Francis Award.

As a senior this past season, the NAIA had combined the divisions, thus meaning that their was now going to be roughly double the number of teams competing for a single NAIA National Championship, and there would be roughly twice as many players vying for award and National recognition. IWU had a dominating regular season, starting off 17-0 and finishing the regular season with a 28-1 record, spending most of the season ranked #1 in the NAIA. I had the privilege of attending their final regular season game, which was a home game against Mount Vernon Nazarene. MVNU is a good, solid, well-coached team, yet IWU was clicking, and the Wildcats were phenomenal in a 117-78 win --- yes, a 39-point win against a good team. Kyle was fantastic, going for 40 points and 7 assists in 31 minutes. He went 13-22 fg (including 7-12 from the 3-point line) and 7-7 ft. Just a spectacular performance! …..oh, and by the way, it was the 50th consecutive home win for Indiana Wesleyan. 50 straight! Remarkable!

The Wildcats won the Crossroads League regular season once again, yet they were defeated by St. Francis (IN) in the conference tournament. In their first-round game of the NAIA Tournament – which was the final home game of Kyle’s career at Indiana Wesleyan – the Wildcats defeated IU-South Bend, 95-76. Kyle went for 30 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals and 2 blocks. He only missed 6 shots total (fg’s & ft’s combined) in scoring 30 points.

#1 ranked Indiana Wesleyan moved on to the round of 16 in the NAIA Tournament at historic Municipal Auditorium in Kansas City, where they faced conference foe, Bethel (IN). They had defeated Bethel by 3 early in the season, and then by 20 later in the season. In short, Bethel played great on the big stage and pulled off the huge win over Indiana Wesleyan, 83-77. In Kyle’s four-year career, Indiana Wesleyan was 9-0 against Bethel prior to the game in the NAIA Tournament, which turned out to be the final game in Kyle’s storied career at Indiana Wesleyan. He finished with 22 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists in his final game.

During his senior year, Kyle scored 974 points and averaged 29.5 ppg, 7.4 rpg, 5.1 apg and had 62 steals, while shooting 60.3% fg and 84.9% ft. He was named Crossroads League Player of the Year, NAIA First Team All American and the NAIA National Player of the Year for the second consecutive season. (The Bevo Francis Award was not presented in 2021 due to COVID-19).

For his four-year career at Indiana Wesleyan, Kyle led the Wildcats to a 120-20 record, thus winning 100 games MORE than they lost in a four-year span. Kyle was named Crossroads League Player of the Year AND First Team NAIA All American all four seasons. He was named NAIA National Player of the Year in back-to-back seasons, and won the Bevo Francis Award. He finished as the second all-time leading collegiate scorer in the history of Indiana Kyle finished with 3,453 points, 818 rebounds, 544 assists, 211 steals and 65 blocks. He shot 56.3% fg and 81.2% ft. As such, Kyle Mangas is the most decorated NAIA Player of this generation.

…………

Above are the numbers and awards, which are ridiculously impressive. But Kyle Mangas is so much more than statistics and awards. When you watch him play, you’ll realize that he doesn’t play for numbers. He’s remarkably unselfish. There was a game this season where IWU was up by 50 points (against Goshen), and Kyle wanted to make sure that other players got a chance to play. Coach Tonagel tried to put a sub in for Kyle, yet other players realized that Kyle was one rebound away from a triple-double. As the players tried to let the coach know about the impending triple-double, Kyle heard about this, and quickly tried to get the sub into the game. It was more important to him that his teammates get a chance to play than for him to get a triple-double. He finished with 31 minutes of playing time and 20 points, 11 assists and 9 rebounds (along with 3 steals).

IAM3rd in action: God first. Others second. Yourself third.

……….

Before his senior season started, Kyle Mangas was already the school’s all-time leading scorer. In a neutral-site game played at Bowling Green High School (KY) against Faulkner, Kyle surpassed the 3,000-point milestone, and surpassed Larry Bird to move into second place on the career scoring list among the top collegiate scorers in the state of Indiana. The next game was played at Huntington, the alma mater of Steve Platt. Platt – who passed away recently – is the state’s all-time leading scorer with 3,700 career points. Playing in Platt Arena in the game after Kyle moved into second place on the state’s career scoring list, Kyle went for 43 and only missed a total of 6 shots (between field goals and free throws, combined).

How about the game when Kyle set the school’s individual game scoring record by going for 51 points against Oakland City? He MADE 21 field goals – including 7 3’s – and added 6 rebounds and 5 assists. How about the game against a really talented St. Francis (IN) team when he went for 35 points, 13 rebounds 6 assists and 6 blocks? How about the game against Goshen on December 2, when he played just 28 minutes in a lopsided win, going 15-16 from the field for 30 points….and then followed that game with a 12-15 performance (and 2-2 from the free throw line) in a win against Taylor? Therefore, in back-to-back games he went a combined 27-31 from the field and 2-2 from the free throw line in two wins. Just remarkable.

……….

It’s easy to get lost in the numbers, the statistics. They’re pretty astonishing and impressive.

I’ve watched Indiana Wesleyan play a lot over the last several years. By “a lot”, I mean that I only missed 3-5 games this whole season, and have probably watched an additional 25-40 games over Kyle’s first three seasons at IWU. I’ve watch them play A LOT.

Here are a few lines that I’ve used to try to describe Kyle Mangas to people:

“If you want to learn how to play this game, watch Kyle Mangas.”

“Watching Kyle Mangas is like watching a basketball clinic.

“Since he’s from Indiana, I think it’s like watching the fictional ‘Jimmy Chitwood’ from Hoosiers.”

For me, as a former coach and basketball junkie, it’s just a pleasure and joy to watch Kyle Mangas play. When people talk about “playing the game the right way,” you can visualize Kyle Mangas. He dives after loose balls, takes charges, and does the “little things” so consistently that, well….coaches know that these really aren’t “little things”. They are the things that help you win basketball games. He pass fakes and shot fakes. With the ball, he changes directions and changes speed. Watch him without the ball…..watch how he uses screens, curls, fades, goes back door. Watch how he draws fouls – and finishes. Watch how he passes and watch how he gets put-backs and loose balls.

There are a couple of plays that I’m thinking about, from his junior season. The first one happened so quickly, so I’m glad that they showed it on replay as well. Kyle was posting up on the right block, and the ball was lobbed to him. The double-team came from the top, right away. He caught the ball and immediately pass-faked around the defender’s waist, along the baseline. The defender turned around to see the pass, while Kyle layed the ball in the basket for an uncontested layup. It looked so simple, so easy. Yet with a double-team coming, he had the instincts to give such a quick and effective pass fake that he ended up with an uncontested layup.

The other play that is popping to my head (among so, so many) is the time when he got a steal around half court. He had an uncontested dunk ahead of him. Yet 7’0” Seth Maxwell was also running with him, for a 2 on 0 fast break. Kyle pitched the ball back to Seth for the dunk. Again, pretty simple play. Simple yes, but Kyle was on the verge of becoming the school’s all-time leading scorer and had a wide open dunk, yet passed it up to give his teammate the dunk. While it had been obvious previously, I was just reminded that Kyle truly doesn’t care who scores. It is genuinely NOT about statistics for Kyle.

Again, IAM3rd in action. God first. Others second. Yourself third.

……….

Humble and kind. These words are used over and over about Kyle Mangas. His teammates told me that Kyle meets new students on campus, and they often walk away having no idea that he plays basketball. He doesn’t like to talk about himself. He’s remarkably humble.

Before I met Kyle, I was told: “You should meet his parents, and you’ll understand.” I met Tim and Ann Mangas, and I understand. Humble. Kind. Intelligent. They smile easily, and they are grateful. They are so proud of Kyle, and they feel fortunate that they all found Indiana Wesleyan, Coach Greg Tonagel and the IAM3rd culture. They’ve watched their son evolve as a person.

Tim and Ann both thought that Kyle would have a good career at Indiana Wesleyan. That said, they didn’t expect THIS….. THIS is one of the most historic careers in NAIA history. THIS is the impact of the IAM3rd culture on their son. THIS is watching their son, who has a 4.0 grade point average, enter the final stages of his degree in Finance. THIS is watching the evolution of their son from a quiet, shy boy into a strong man of confidence and faith. When Ann talks about her pride in her son, she gets emotional. What a ride it’s been…..

………

On Senior Day, here’s what Coach Greg Tonagel had to say about Kyle Mangas:

“Coaches, fans, and teammates have been able to witness firsthand one of the great NAIA basketball players of all time during these past four years. However, what makes Kyle special goes far beyond what he has done on the court. The humility and grace that he has led with is unmatched. From being asked to be a vocal leader as a freshman to becoming the standard for what an IAM3 leader looks like within the basketball program, he has accepted every challenge head on. He is the standard for mental toughness, as is evident by his unflappable demeanor, competitive nature, and his countless game-winning heroics. To the outside world, he's an incredible basketball player. To all of us who know him – he is that and a whole lot more. He's Mango – a teammate, a friend, a competitor, and a servant leader who has remained humble, fearless, authentic, and gracious throughout his decorated career.”

……….

When we presented the Bevo Francis Award to Kyle, Coach Greg Tonagel spoke about Kyle….

He talked about how Kyle has worked on his fundamentals, and the repetition of those fundamentals until they became habits, and then those habits and skills became instinctive. He talked about his own sons, and how they began to do “up-and-unders” and the “Mikan drill”. When they asked about “why” they were doing these drills, Greg Tonagel (Dad) would tell them, “because Kyle Mangas does ‘up-and-unders’ and the ‘Mikan drill’”. And then the boys would dutifully continue with the drills, because Kyle Mangas does those drills.

Here are a few quotes that stand out to me:

“Kyle has proven to us all that humility is actually a form of strength.”

“I doubt that there has ever been a player that has scored 3,000 points in his career without ever once showing up his opponent in any way.”

“His teammates would tell you that, in his senior year, he’s become the ultimate leader. He’s invested into the lives of his teammates. He has become a spiritual leader. Every day, he’s pouring into young players, not only about what it means to be a great basketball player, but what it means to be a follower of Christ. To me, that’s the ultimate compliment and the ultimate form of leadership.”

………

This past Summer (of 2020), Kyle had an internship that was closer to Indiana Wesleyan than to Warsaw, so he stayed with Coach Greg Tonagel, his wife (Amy) and their six children. The kids would wait by the door for Kyle to come home from his internship, so that they could go outside to play basketball with Kyle Mangas. The neighborhood kids would come over, and there would be Kyle Mangas playing basketball with the neighborhood kids. You can picture the scene, and you know that, in 5, 10 and 20 years from now, those kids will grow up telling the stories of those days when they played basketball with Kyle Mangas.

While those kids can dream of being the next Kyle Mangas the basketball player, the dream for the parents of those kids should be for their kids grow up to be like Kyle Mangas the human being.

………

Greg Tonagel finished his thoughts about Kyle Mangas during the presentation of the Bevo Francis Award with these words: “Somebody, someday, is going to put on the next Kyle Mangas uniform and carry on Kyle’s legacy. I doubt that they will pass all of these accolades. I doubt that they will pass these numbers. But they are going to carry on that legacy of what it means to be a Christ-followers that loves the game of basketball and doesn’t play for himself, and embodies what we call the IAM3rd culture: God first. Others second. Yourself third. If young people will continue to do that, they will have carried on the legacy of Kyle Mangas.”

……….

I’ve been watching this game for a long time now. I coached for eight seasons, collegiately: Four as an assistant coach and four as a Head Coach. I’ve served on the NCAA Division II National Basketball Committee (while I was an NCAA Division II Athletic Director) and served as the Director of the NAIA’s Division I Men’s Basketball Championship. I’ve been watching small college basketball closely for 25+ years. I don’t like to use the term “best”, as this implies a comparison. As noted towards the beginning of this post, I don’t like to “compare”, as “comparison is the thief of joy.” I’ll say this about Kyle Mangas: He’s the most consistently effective and efficient NAIA player that I’ve ever seen. It’s truly been a pleasure and a joy to watch him play.

Thanks for the memories, Kyle…..and thank you for being a humble role model for us all.

Vitamin D deficiency may be linked to more severe cases of COVID-19, studies suggest

New Post has been published on https://apzweb.com/vitamin-d-deficiency-may-be-linked-to-more-severe-cases-of-covid-19-studies-suggest/

Vitamin D deficiency may be linked to more severe cases of COVID-19, studies suggest

TORONTO — Two recent studies have found an association between vitamin D and COVID-19 suggesting that people who are deficient in the micronutrient are more likely to experience serious health complications if infected, but the authors say more research is needed.

In one study, Northwestern University researchers in Illinois found that patients from countries with high COVID-19 mortality rates, such as Italy, Spain and the U.K., had lower levels of vitamin D compared to patients in countries that were not as severely affected.

According to Health Canada, vitamin D is produced in the skin from UVB sunlight exposure and can increase calcium and phosphorus absorption from food to help maintain strong bones and teeth. Low levels of vitamin D can speed up bone loss and increase the risk of fractures. The vitamin can also stimulate immune responses.

The study, which has not been peer-reviewed, was pre-printed April 30 in the online journal medRxiv. Researchers looked at data from hospitals and clinics across China, France, Germany, Italy, Iran, South Korea, Spain, Switzerland, the U.K. and the U.S. They compared this with data on the levels of vitamin D in the population in those countries before the pandemic.

The study reported a correlation between vitamin D deficiency and a complication known as a cytokine storm, which occurs when the immune system goes into overdrive, as well as a correlation between vitamin D deficiency and mortality rates.

Vitamin D modulates the response of white blood cells and can prevent them from releasing too many inflammatory cytokines. According to the study, COVID-19 can cause an excess of these cytokines.

“Cytokine storm can severely damage lungs and lead to acute respiratory distress syndrome and death in patients,” Ali Daneshkhah, a postdoctoral research associate at Northwestern and the lead author of the study, said in a press release. “This is what seems to kill a majority of COVID-19 patients, not the destruction of the lungs by the virus itself. It is the complications from the misdirected fire from the immune system.”

However, the researchers stress that this does not mean that everyone — especially those without a known deficiency — need to start increasing their intake of vitamin D.

“While I think it is important for people to know that vitamin D deficiency might play a role in mortality, we don’t need to push vitamin D on everybody,” Northwestern’s lead researcher Vadim Backman said in the release. “This needs further study, and I hope our work will stimulate interest in this area.”

Michael Holick, an expert on Vitamin D research from Boston University, warns that taking too much vitamin D can result in vitamin D toxicity and have negative side effects including kidney damage, bone pain and calcium stones.

But Holick told CTVNews.ca that someone would have to take “tens of thousands of units of vitamin D for half a year” for those side effects to occur.

“Too much vitamin D can increase your blood calcium and it can start depositing calcium into your blood vessels, which ultimately can cause a lot of harm,” Holick said in a telephone interview on Wednesday. “But vitamin D toxicity is one of the rarest medical conditions in the world.”

Dr. David Seres, director of medical nutrition at Columbia University Irving Medical Center, told CTVNews.ca on Wednesday that people should consult a physician before taking vitamin D supplements.

“Vitamin D is a fat, and is only present in the bloodstream bound to a specific carrier protein. The level of this protein drops when there is severe inflammation… But despite years of papers claiming that this represents a deficiency, this is just a phenomenon related to physiological shifts and is not a deficiency,” Seres said in an email.

“It should be no surprise that lower D levels predict poor outcomes, since sicker patients have lower carrier protein levels,” he added.

Seres said the conclusions drawn in this study can be misleading. He cautioned that the researchers’ claims should not be used to change one’s behaviour.

“The authors use the correlation between D levels and a marker of inflammation, as well as a few average measures of D levels from the general populations in different countries, to extrapolate a conclusion that vitamin D has a role in COVID-19 severity. There was no direct measurement, and the conclusions are a stretch and ignore what we know about how vitamin D is carried in the bloodstream,” Seres said.

Another study in the U.K. also found a link between higher levels of vitamin D and fewer COVID-19 cases and deaths among 20 European countries.

The study, published May 7 in the journal Aging Clinical and Experimental Research, found that patients with higher average levels of vitamin D had fewer coronavirus cases and lower mortality rates.

The study found that Italy and Spain, where populations have experienced high COVID-19 mortality rates, have lower average vitamin D levels than most northern European countries. Patients studied in northern European countries including Finland, Norway, Denmark and Sweden, had higher than average levels of vitamin D and lower rates of coronavirus cases and deaths.

The study did not look at whether increased vitamin D levels could result in better outcomes for COVID-19 patients, but lead researcher Dr. Lee Smith said in a press release that it is a prospect researchers are looking to explore further.

“Vitamin D has been shown to protect against acute respiratory infections, and older adults, the group most deficient in vitamin D, are also the ones most seriously affected by COVID-19,” Smith said. “A previous study found that 75 per cent of people in institutions, such as hospitals and care homes, were severely deficient in vitamin D. We suggest it would be advisable to perform dedicated studies looking at vitamin D levels in COVID-19 patients with different degrees of disease severity.”

Researchers noted that this study was limited in that it did not account for the level of testing and different public health measures taken by each country to prevent the spread of infection.

Seres said recent hype around vitamin D as a disease and virus cure-all is unfounded.

“Vitamin D has been promoted as a cure for everything from cancer to Alzheimer’s. [But] let me be very clear — there is no data that the effect of sun exposure on vitamin D levels, or supplementation of vitamin D, has any impact on whether you are susceptible to coronavirus infection, or on the severity of the illness if you are infected,” Seres said.

There are currently no drugs, vaccines, or other therapeutics approved by Health Canada to prevent or treat the novel coronavirus.

Osteoporosis Canada advises healthy adults aged 19-50 consume 400-1,000 IU of vitamin D per day, and those over 50, or younger adults at high risk, take 800-2,000 IU daily. The organization advises year-round vitamin D supplementation for all Canadian adults.

Doctors & Researchers Should really Tension Prostate Cancer Prevention Extra Regularly

http://topicsofnote.com/?p=6992&utm_source=SocialAutoPoster&utm_medium=Social&utm_campaign=Tumblr

Though health professionals and scientists have had a variety of successes in the prognosis and treatment method of most cancers, we will need to worry cancer prevention.

A situation in stage is prostate cancer. In Illinois, just about 10,000 new conditions are identified every calendar year. Quite a few people today identified will have surgical treatment, radiation and other treatments. Yet, a substantial proportion of these cancers may be preventable - maybe by a little something as easy as having a dietary health supplement.

This most cancers is much more common amongst guys residing in northern climates. There is a easy relationship among these two teams that might support to reduce prostate cancer: vitamin D.

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that can help deposit calcium in the bone. Interestingly, vitamin D requirements sunlight to turn out to be activated. Elevated melatonin in the skin of African-Us citizens lessens the activation of vitamin D. These living in northern climates have a lot less all round sun publicity (and vitamin D activation).

A latest study in the medical news journal Inside Drugs World Report concluded that higher blood ranges of activated vitamin D were being related with a substantially lowered hazard. This knowledge arrived from the Physicians Overall health Review, which tracked 1,082 medical professionals who designed and afterwards died from prostate cancer and when compared them to 1,701 other guys of the similar age.

What was found was that these with reduce stages of vitamin D were being at double the possibility of developing prostate cancer and had 3 to four periods the risk of contracting aggressive prostate most cancers in comparison to the other adult males. ...In truth, all those with vitamin D levels above standard had a 45 per cent reduction in the possibility of ever producing prostate cancer. Adult men dwelling in Asian nations, where the eating plan is prosperous in fish, have the highest concentrations of vitamin D and the least expensive degrees of prostate most cancers in the earth.

Taking into consideration the hundreds of pounds in healthcare prices and personalized trauma resulting from prostate most cancers, it is encouraging to think that up to 45 p.c of new conditions could be prevented for pennies a day.

We know that vitamin D influences cell expansion and can trigger cancer mobile dying. Recent exploration has demonstrated that vitamin D may possibly act at the DNA level, advertising the manufacturing of normal anti-cancer compounds like tumor necrosis variable (TNF). Larger stages of serum vitamin D may encourage higher degrees of pure anti-most cancers compounds like TNF. Lessen vitamin D concentrations could possibly do the opposite.

The suggested every day dose of vitamin D is 400 IU. Increased every day doses (maybe as little as 800 IU / working day) may be needed for the most added benefits. Whilst fish, fortified milk and egg yolk are resources of vitamin D, multivitamins and dietary supplements might be more handy.

Billions have been invested in investigate, prognosis, and treatment method of most cancers. Hospitals and professional medical facilities nationwide emphasize improvements and slicing edge therapies, pretty handful of tension avoidance - and prevention is the place we actually will need to be. Prostate most cancers must not be an challenge in the US, it is pretty easy to reduce.

Education Reference Desk Announces 2020's Best Accredited Online Colleges

Education Reference Desk, a nationally recognized provider of college planning resources, announces their picks for the best accredited online colleges and universities.

The number of students taking online classes topped 6 million in fall 2016, according to a 2018 report from Babson Survey Research Group, with around 3 million of those learners exclusively taking distance education classes in either graduate and undergraduate programs. The report, based on U.S. Department of Education data, indicates that the number of students in distance education courses increased by 5.6 percent over the previous year. With so many options available to students, Education Reference Desk has recently published its list of the top 48 accredited online colleges. Pulling data from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), colleges were evaluated based on their affordability, academic quality and student outcomes. As part of the rankings, EduRef.net also published detailed profiles outlining each school on its list. Students can use these profiles to evaluate each school's net prices, retention and graduation rates, and future earning potential, along with key demographic information. "Online programs can offer a flexible learning environment for students who have to balance classes with working a full-time job, caring for their family or other responsibilities," said Education Reference Desk's spokesperson, "The Best Accredited Online Colleges ranking allows students to compare accredited schools and find those that best fit their education interests and career goals.

Doctors & Researchers Should Stress Prostate Cancer Prevention More Frequently

Although doctors and researchers have had a number of successes in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer, we need to stress cancer prevention.

A case in point is prostate cancer. In Illinois, almost 10,000 new cases are diagnosed each year. Many people diagnosed will have surgery, radiation and other procedures. Yet, a significant percentage of these cancers might be preventable – possibly by something as simple as taking a dietary supplement.

This cancer is more common among men living in northern climates. There is a straightforward connection between these two groups that might help to prevent prostate cancer: vitamin D.

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that helps deposit calcium in the bone. Interestingly, vitamin D needs sunlight to become activated. Increased melatonin in the skin of African-Americans reduces the activation of vitamin D. Those living in northern climates have less overall sun exposure (and vitamin D activation).

A recent study in the medical news journal Internal Medicine World Report concluded that higher blood levels of activated vitamin D were associated with a considerably reduced risk. This data came from the Physicians Health Study, which tracked 1,082 physicians who developed and later died from prostate cancer and compared them to 1,701 other men of the same age.

What was discovered was that those with lower levels of vitamin D were at double the risk of developing prostate cancer and had three to four times the risk of contracting aggressive prostate cancer compared to the other men. Indeed, those with vitamin D levels above normal had a 45 percent reduction in the risk of ever developing prostate cancer. Men living in Asian countries, where the diet is rich in fish, have the highest levels of vitamin D and the lowest levels of prostate cancer in the world.

Considering the thousands of dollars in medical costs and personal trauma resulting from prostate cancer, it is encouraging to think that up to 45 percent of new cases could be prevented for pennies a day.

We know that vitamin D affects cell growth and can cause cancer cell death. Recent research has demonstrated that vitamin D might act at the DNA level, promoting the production of natural anti-cancer compounds like tumor necrosis factor (TNF). Higher levels of serum vitamin D might promote higher levels of natural anti-cancer compounds like TNF. Lower vitamin D levels might do the opposite.

The recommended daily dose of vitamin D is 400 IU. Higher daily doses (possibly as little as 800 IU/day) might be required for the most benefits. Although fish, fortified milk and egg yolk are sources of vitamin D, multivitamins and dietary supplements might be more convenient.

Billions have been spent in research, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer. Hospitals and medical centers nationwide emphasize innovations and cutting edge therapies, very few stress prevention – and prevention is where we really need to be. Prostate cancer should not be an issue in the US, it is very easy to prevent.

Protest or Disrespect?

Indianapolis, Indiana -Athletes around the United States have been protesting by kneeling during the singing of the National Anthem because of the inequalities that minorities in our country have gone through, and our President has suggested they all be fired for it.

The first athlete in recent memory to protest the National Anthem is free agent NFL Quarterback; Colin Kaepernick. Now you have other superstar athletes like Steph Curry, LeBron James as well as every football team speaking out, locking arms and/or kneeling in protests. Steph Curry publicly declined the President’s invitation to the White House. LeBron James publicly called the President “a bum”, due to the President’s response to Steph Curry denying his invitation. Along with NBA stars protesting, NFL teams and organizations began protesting after President Trump’s statement about the protestors. President Trump suggested all players kneeling and protesting the National Anthem should be fired, and referred to them as “sons of bitches”. This lead to many athletes in the NFL and NBA coming together, NFL players locking arms and kneeling during the National Anthem and some teams refusing to come onto the field until afterwards. NBA players can’t protest National Anthem or will face different consequences than the NFL, so they choose to voice their opinions publicly.

President Trump feels that athletes are disrespecting the flag and its meaning, but also are a distraction to their own leagues. Many others who agree has suggested that athletes stick to sports, and leave politics alone. Meanwhile, others argue that there isn’t any disrespect being displayed towards the flag or the National Anthem. They argue that the meaning of the flag is not being honored in our country due to the mistreatment of minorities in America. IUPUI professor Charmayne Champion-Shaw, who has her PH. D in social justice, suggests that things be looked at from a different perspective than disrespect.

“Football players only have their fame, and their time to do something political is while they are in that spotlight as a football player,” Shaw explained.

Shaw later added that politics are connected in sports as well, so it will be hard to separate the two. After stating she’s a season ticket holder for Colts games, she described how these two are directly connected.

“Every Colts game there are guardsman who bring a flag as big as the field out, there has been eagles soaring out of the stadium, there has been members of different military groups come out as well.” Shaw said these things happening in an athletic event directly connects sports and politics.

Shaw, who supports the protest, gave many reasons why these athletes are not being disrespectful. Besides the flag and military groups being honored by the athletes, it’s because they are respected.

“Athletes are not disrespecting the flag or the vets or the military groups. The military doesn’t fight for the cloth of the flag, they fight for the basic of the Humans of our country; freedom of speech and religion as examples. Kneeling in football is not a sign a disrespect it’s the complete opposite, because coaches tell players to kneel when they want the players attention.” Lastly, Shaw suggests that athletes protesting is aimed at a political issue, not the flag or armed services.

Colleges are not in the ideal position to protest and neither are their athletes, but they have taken a stand as of late as well. These collegiate athletes are now making their voices heard as well about the protest.

Northern Illinois point guard Eugene German explained that as an athlete, who has witnessed these inequalities and troubles in the world, that it’s a good thing when the top superstars use their platform to shed light on the issue such as Lebron James.

“LeBron James views (are) more of a protest than disrespect. We have a lot of trouble going on in the world and he’s using his platform to try to make it better for his kids and the younger generations under him.” German explains why athletes should speak out.

German says it can be good and bad for athletes, but from a selfless point of view it’s good for people besides athletes.

“Social media has a lot of people who says athletes should just stick to sports, but with so much negativity in the world that they also live in, it’s a good thing they can shed light and try to turn a negative into a positive.” German expresses his thoughts on the media suggesting that athletes leave politics alone and just playing sports.

Core’Von Lott, point guard for Calumet College of St. Joseph, expressed that the protest isn’t to demean the National Anthem, but educate those who aren’t familiar with its meaning. Lott even explains what the National Anthem means to him to show that the protests isn’t out of disrespect, but it is being used to highlight issues in society today.

“The National Anthem to me is gives us our right to freedom and voice our opinion.” Lott follows up saying the protest isn’t towards the National Anthem, but those who aren’t honoring it.

Much like other athletes, the collegiate athletes suggest that they aren’t protesting the meaning of the National Anthem, but they can’t stand for something that is not being displayed in America today. Athletes feel that President Trump is being more divisive than uniting, so it is their job to unite for the causes he won’t address correctly.
