What breaking news has been released at MSParis2017?
Well, I'm always looking for new information around progressive MS
because as Chair of the scientific steering committee of the Progressive MS Alliance that's where my focus is.
And this has been a very good year because we had
the three major networks that the Alliance is funding, they presented on Wednesday evening
they presented their work, and these are international networks which are looking at
new treatments for progressive MS and also for new biomarkers.
So that was really exciting and the hall was packed, a huge amount of interest.
But the biggest breaking news, which will be presented tomorrow, but which I am fully aware of
is the results of the trial on a drug called Ibudilast in progressive MS.
Now Ibudilast is a drug which protects the central nervous system
and this is really one of the first studies looking at
a neuroprotective agent in progressive MS, and the marker they've been using is brain atrophy
so looking to see if they could reduce brain atrophy.
And I understand from reliable sources that this trial is positive.
So this could be a huge breakthrough in our treatment of progressive MS.
And 'atrophy' means shrinking?
Yes, loss of tissue basically. So preventing that loss of tissue which we see in progressive MS.

The opioid crisis is making grandparents become parents again - Duration: 8:04.
Opioid abuse has made thousands of Americans
incapable of caring for their children,
and that has drawn attention to grandparents,
many of whom are receiving the same phone call
from child protective services or law enforcement...
"When you get the call and there's never been a
formal removal, the options are going to be:
come get the kids or they are going into foster care".
"My ex-husband that received the call because
they knew I was at work and they did call me
to inform me: 'What should we do?' "
When they get that call
and decide to raise their grandchild,
they become a new kind of caregiver,
"I mean at that stage, I was already raised
my own children and now you have to start all over."
No longer a typical grandparent, but not a parent either.
"We are the ones who hear the crying at night.
We're the ones that go to the schools
when they have Mother's Day events,
but yet we're grandma.
How about Father's Day?
Well, I could make a mustache and put on a hat and go.
Well, I did whatever I had to do.
Whatever I had to do!"
There's actually a name for this: it's called "Kinship Care"
It's a type of child-raising that has always existed,
but it is becoming more common.
For over twenty years, Jerry Wallace has been
advocating for kinship caregivers in New York State.
Sometimes even bringing his pet dog Cookie with him.
"Yeah?"
"No! Cookie you gotta go!"
"I'll put her right out."
He was recently in Rockland County,
visiting caregivers at a monthly support group.
"When parents aren't there anymore
death, you know, tragedies or what not
relatives have stepped in and raised children.
In non-relative foster care, the government places
places a child with a family and provides
services that include legal assistance,
financial benefits, and case management.
But in kinship care, the situation can be different.
If they receive a call, the relative has to make a choice:
Become a licensed foster parent,
which is called "formal kinship",
or volunteer to raise the child on their own without
official custody in what's known as "informal kinship".
In the US,
around 130,000 children live in formal kinship,
and nearly 2.5 million live in informal kinship care.
Those who choose to participate in the foster care
system have access to government services.
But that can include regular visits from
child protective services,
court appearances,
or mandated caregiver training,
all of which can be disruptive
for the child and the grandparents.
So, many people opt for an informal kinship,
which has less official involvement but also
limits access to resources that can help raise the child.
Unlike most foster parents,
informal kinship caregivers can have trouble
enrolling kids in schools
and accessing medical services and other benefits
because they may lack legal custody of the children.
Kinship families might not have access
to typical foster care services,
but there are a few programs that offer help.
Like the child-only grant:
a temporary assistance benefit that
provides a small amount of money
to help care for the child.
"You're taking children into your home that
you didn't anticipate having,
and all of a sudden, you have a kid
who needs school supplies, he needs sneakers --
I constantly hear about sneakers
and the cost of sneakers."
The problem is, there's no easy way
to find out about that help.
"If you don't go the foster care route
and you're on your own,
it's the luck of the draw whether you're even
going to find out that there are services.
Maybe you're one grandma who said to me:
'Child protective services gave me my grandchild
eight years ago,
this is the first time I've found out there's help.'
So that's just because there hasn't been
the procedural mechanisms to make sure
that it didn't happen."
The Rockland County support group helps
bridge that gap.
Once a month, they meet at
Volunteer Counseling Service, where
Rosa Serrano-Delgado is the program director.
"When I was hired in this position about
I think it was, maybe, 12 years now,
I had never heard of the term 'kinship'.
I really had never heard of the term 'kinship'."
"What you would you have needed?
What would have been helpful to you
you know, as you are entering this journey
of raising these children.?"
"It is due to the pandemic, the opioid pandemic
that we have here and many people are...
Knows somebody that has lost a loved one."
"This population, of families raising a relative's child,
were lacking support.
Everyone else seemed to have something in place,
but not these kinship families."
But even if caregivers are made
fully aware of their options,
they still might avoid formal kinship
because of the approval process.
"Sometimes the concern is,
I am older, I'm not making a lot of money,
So how is this going to affect the way they view me?
Are they going to see me as capable?
Am I physically capable of raising this child
or these children.
Do I have enough resources?
The other stigma that I've heard,
which is really interesting, is that
they are afraid that people
might judge them because obviously something
has happened with your child,
that they're not able to care for their own child,
So what kind of parent were you?"
Kinship caregivers can feel isolated
and that's where these support groups come in
"They really feel that they are amongst a group
of people that really get them,
that really understand them,
that they can really be honest with."
"You know, 'Why is grandma raising the child?'
and, 'Where are the parents?'
And, well, don't question it so much,
we all have different situations at hand."
"I tried counseling, the emotional stuff,
which still is visible at times."
"Absolutely.
That's a big one: emotional, right?
Sometimes they believe that you're keeping
my dad or my mom away from me.
You know?
'You did something to keep mom or dad away from me!' "
"And sometimes the parent is angry at you
because you're caring for the child, is that correct
Right!
Groups like these are providing crucial support to
kinship families in communities across America.
In New York, Jerry runs a website and hotline
that points kinship caregivers towards
local, state, and federal services.
Like Rosa's support group in Rockland County.
"We're keeping kids out of foster care
because they can go live with their families.
That doesn't mean we should abandon those families.
We should provide them the minimal supports
they need to really help these kids
have good outcomes."
There is also a financial benefit to kinship care.
In a recent report, a grandparents advocacy group
estimated that kinship care saves taxpayers $4 billion
every year by keeping children out of foster care.
In spite of the benefits, kinship caregivers continue
to struggle in a fragmented system.
"What really needs to be done, is
every state needs a specialized kinship program
with the outreach dollars to reach down in
the community and the coordination with the
other service systems so that they are aware of them,
so that these families are contacted.
Whether it's the education system,
mental health services, or the courts,
they should all be pointing these families to someone
who knows what to tell them about resources
and about their rights."

It's time to draw borders on the Arctic Ocean - Duration: 12:50.
I'm on an island near the North Pole and I'm here to find out who owns the Arctic.
As the ice melts more and more in this region,
you can see just how dramatic the ice has been shrinking.
One of these countries has shown that they're willing to fight for it.
Russia's making a new push into the Arctic.
This is the Wild West.
Investment opportunities opening up in sort of an unusual area: the Russian Arctic.
The Arctic region has strategic and economic importance.
The pace of melting is only getting faster.
Russia projecting its power.
Use diplomacy to avoid further conflict in the High North.
So, I'm not allowed to
take my camera down into the mine. So I've been given this explosion-proof
super fortified camera. In case it explodes, it won't cause a death fire for
the entire community.
This coal mine is owned by the Russian government,
it's in a town with Russian flags,
and the bust of a Russian Communist revolutionary, Vladimir Lenin.
But, this isn't Russia.
It's Barentsburg, on the island of Svalbard near the North Pole.
It's a place that exists for strategic reasons, not for making money.
In fact it loses money. Has for decades.
Russia funds this place because for them, it means influence in this region.
A frozen ocean, that is melting more and more every year due to the changing climate.
This is what the Arctic Ocean looked like in
September 1984. Fast-forward thirty two years and this is what it looks like:
September 2016.
Most of the world sees this as a looming disaster, but for the
Arctic nations this change means an opportunity:
Access to a brand new ocean.
Here's what geologists think oil and gas resources might look like in the Arctic.
The US Geological Survey estimates that the region holds 30 percent of the
world's undiscovered natural gas and 13% of its oil.
These resources are still remote and costly to access but they're more
accessible every year and suddenly this desolate region is very interesting to the world.
New shipping routes are also opening up and this ocean, that was once frozen,
is now navigable for longer periods every summer, cutting weeks off
the trips between Asian and Western markets.
The topic of borders in the
Arctic region is a little bit complex and it's an issue that's still open
for discussion and negotiation. Currently the border lines in the Arctic Ocean
look like this.
Every country gets their default maritime borders that are
200 nautical miles off their coast. The rest of the water that doesn't fall within
these exclusive economic zones, is up for grabs to anyone who can prove
that it belongs to them. And that has a lot to do with a continental shelf.
A continental shelf is a part of a country's landmass. It's just covered with ocean.
The continental shelf continues until it drops off into the deeper parts of the ocean.
Since the ice has been melting, countries have been sending out
submarines to gather data on the continental shelf. They put together a
scientific case and submit it to a UN committee. This committee reviews it and
decides whether or not the country's claim is scientifically valid.
Extending from our coastlines, lying beneath the sea, is an extension of our country
called the continental shelf. It determines the new borders of our
country. Knowing where the edge of the continental shelf lies, adds millions of
square kilometers to our country and makes the resources on the seafloor and
beneath the seabed, Canada's.
So far Norway and Iceland are the only two nations
whose continental shelf claims have been submitted and approved by the UN, but
others have submitted claims that are waiting for approval.
Look at Russia's claims versus that of Greenland,
the large Arctic island that actually belongs to Denmark.
The claims overlap significantly.
Canada is in the process
of gathering data and is expected to submit a claim that will also have some overlap here.
The UN committee that evaluates these
claims is made up of scientists, not diplomats. Their sole job is to say
whether or not the claim is scientifically valid.
It's then up to the
countries to negotiate how to work out who gets what.
Russia has shown its interest in having a claim that extends all the way to the North Pole.
In 2007 Russia went so far as to plant
its flag on the seafloor under the North Pole.
And if push comes to shove, Russia
likely won't concede its North Pole claim to the tiny nation of Denmark,
whose claims overlap with theirs. Russia is easily the biggest player in the
Arctic neighborhood. Half of the Arctic is flanked by Russian coast and they
easily wield the most influence and they have the most to gain from global
warming and the ice melting. And so they're refortifying and renovating a lot of
their strategic outposts here in the Arctic.
50 airfields by 2020,
putting special forces. They're training, holding military exercises in the Arctic.
In recent years Russia has been reopening, fortifying, and building new military
bases in the Arctic region. They've been publicizing their military exercises,
which include reindeer, huskies, and soldiers in uniforms that look like
they belong in a Star Wars film.
Russia is sending us important signals, that in the Arctic,
they will project their own power and capabilities and I don't see a
sufficient response from the US and NATO, to recognize that increased military position.
One of those outposts is the town of Barentsburg, which is right
behind me, here on the island of Svalbard.
Barentsburg isn't a military facility, like all those other dots on the map, but
it serves a similar purpose. And to understand why Russia wants a town on
this island, you have to understand Svalbard. It's unlike any other piece of
land on earth and not only because it's the northernmost inhabited part of the planet.
The Svalbard treaty, signed in 1920, says that any country who has
signed the treaty can have its people on Svalbard and exploit the land for
commercial or economic purposes. The land technically belongs to Norway, but 45
countries have signed the treaty and so 45 countries have economic claim to this land.
The one rule is that no nation, including Norway, is allowed to have
military assets on Svalbard. So Russia set up a coal mine up here, not
to make money. Russia pays for these coal
miners to be here to sink economic roots into this land. If there's ever
dispute about boundaries or if oil is someday found off the shores of Svalbard,
Russia will be at the table where those discussions are happening and
Barentsburg will be their bargaining chip.
It's their claim to this land.
What's most fascinating to me, is that this strategy plays out with people.
The people living here in Barentsburg are effectively placeholders for a Russian
strategy for the Arctic. And yet when you talk to them that's not really on their mind.
They're not thinking about geopolitics,
they're not thinking about the changing landscape of the Arctic, and
what that means for Russian policy.
For Russia, coal has been their main economic activity,
it's what they've been doing here for years, but coal is in decline
and their operation is slowly losing people and interest and so they're
realizing they have to pivot to a different economic activity, that is more
sustainable for the future. And for them the answer is tourism.
On Svalbard, it's kind of clear: the coal mining era,
is something which is, you know, disappearing.
It's a bust.
Tourism, science, nature protection is its future.
You can see Russia's renewed interest in this island taking place
when you walk around the town of Barentsburg.
The consulate is undergoing
some renovation right now. They're like gutting the whole thing and renovating
after years of neglect. It's a small village of a few hundred people and it
has an entire consulate. This consulate serves more as a statement than a
functional asset for the Russian government.
All these renovations suggest
that they expect this ghost town to become a major tourist destination, but
making money isn't the motivation here.
Of course it's impossible that
Barentsburg one day will support itself without any funding from the government.
It's impossible.
The pivot to tourism isn't just about keeping deep
economic roots in Barentsburg. It also serves a purpose of turning Barentsburg
into a spectacle, for people to see just how much Russian identity is tied to the Arctic.
Newly refurbished buildings, new Arctic theme bars, museums that tell the
story of Russian presence in the Arctic.
These aren't military bases or airfields,
but this sort of projection of culture and identity goes a long way in creating
association with a place, in exerting influence.
It's called soft power.
Funding all of this on a faraway island that belongs to Norway, is the epitome of soft power.
And it's a perfect complement to Russia's surge in hard power in the Arctic.
Remember all those dots?
The most long-range air patrols with bear bombers since the Cold War,
forty five thousand troops, three thousand four hundred military vehicles,
forty one ships, fifteen submarines, and a hundred and ten aircraft.
What do you think Russia's trying to achieve in the Arctic with that massive military buildup?
I don't know.
I believe, however, that we are going to have to figure it out.
But up until now Russia has been playing by the rules
on the maritime borders front. Following all the UN protocol and making
claims in a very orderly fashion, but they've also shown some provocative
behavior in protecting their influence in the region.
On the one hand for Russia
to benefit economically from the Arctic, it has to be a stable cooperative environment.
The best thing you can do to spook off companies and economic investment,
is to think that the region could be prone to conflict.
But we have to remember that this is the government that annexed Crimea a few years ago.
It's a government that's not afraid to project power in its neighborhood.
They're showing us both tracks, sort of this dual policy of wanting to be open
for business, but be able to growl a little bit and show its muscular teeth
for its military and those two, eventually they're a little incompatible.
This region is changing fast.
The treaties and norms that have kept it
in order for years are becoming incompatible with the physical realities.
As the ice melts, the region will become more valuable. New borders will be drawn,
and new opportunities to project power will emerge.
We can only hope that Russia continues to play by the rules.
My favorite part about being in the Arctic while I was making this story,
was going on these late night hikes.
A lot of the footage in this video was shot after midnight,
when the sun would kind of just hover around the horizon.
The light would be beautiful for hours at a time.
And it was just such a crazy experience to watch the sun never set.
Anyway, thanks for watching the second episode of Borders, I published the first episode
last week. And I'm going to continue to publish these every week, on Tuesdays.
I also want to say a big thank you to lululemon, who is a sponsor of Borders.
They sent me these ABC pants, which are
these sturdy pants are used for both active hiking, as well as just kind of lounging around.
They're super comfortable.
Thank you lululemon for sending me these ABC pants,
but more importantly thanks for supporting Borders, and for making this whole thing happen.
If you want to check out these ABC pants, I'm going to leave a link here,
where you can go over to the lulu shop online, and check them out for yourself.
That's it, stay tuned: one week from now, I'm releasing the next episode of Borders.

Backstage News On Why Shane McMahon Is Wrestling At Hell In A Cell - Duration: 3:24.
Backstage News On Why Shane McMahon Is Wrestling At Hell In A Cell
With Vince McMahon appearing on SmackDown Live this week, there has been a lot of speculation that he will announce Shane McMahon vs. Kevin Owens at the Hell In A Cell pay-per-view on Oct.8, 2017, in Detroit Michigan.
And now, we are learning why that match is being scheduled in the first place.
Sportskeeda (via their Dirty Sheets YouTube channel) is reporting that there is one really good reason why Vince McMahon has decided to book his son (who is currently 47-years-old) for another go in the squared circle. Money!.
Apparently, it isn't just his entrance music theme song. When Shane 'O Mac wrestles it really is "here comes the money.". Vince McMahon gives Shane a huge amount of credit for the success of WrestleMania 32.
The event, which took place at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, became the highest attended WrestleMania of all time and was a huge commercial success—even if fans weren't as impressed overall.
However, Sportskeeda reports the event was not looking like it was going to be a success at one point, and then they added Shane O' to the card and boom! They got the additional sales of the last 26,000 tickets, which in turn, caused secondary market prices to rise and hit an average of $301 and WrestleMania 32 ended up making the company just over $29 million!.
Sure, the boost in ticket sales could be attributed to many factors, but Vince holds strong to the belief that it was bringing back his son to the WWE that did it—which is why the McMahon son will be earning his pay by battling Kevin Owens on Oct.
And speaking of his pay.
Shane McMahon is signed to a contract that brings him $1.5 million dollars per year and according to Sportskeeda sources, the first year of his deal brought him $1.8 million which accounts for a nice $300,000 in bonuses and royalties.
It should also be noted that Shane's contract is a performer's contract only, which means he is not at all involved with creative and is only signed on to perform as SmackDown general manager as well as being contractually obligated to wrestle twice per year.

F1 news: Lewis Hamilton congratulated by Sebastian Vettel after winning fourth title - Duration: 3:04.
F1 news: Lewis Hamilton congratulated by Sebastian Vettel after winning fourth title
But in a show of class, a despondent Vettel congratulated Hamilton on his F1 Championship win during his post-race interview.
"Yeah it was a big ask today but it's still very disappointing obviously, but it's not that important," Vettel told Sky Sports. "What Lewis has done is more important and he's done a superb job all year round.
"And he deserves to win the title so congratulations to him.
"It's not about anybody else today, it's just about him and it's his day." Asked whether Lewis' fourth title - which equalled Vettel's number - meant they were on a par, the German replied: "Yeah - if you can count.
"I don't fear him. I like racing with him but obviously I would've liked a little bit more of that this year.
"But overall they [Mercedes] were just the better bunch." Hamilton then approached Vettel who broke away from the interview to shake the Champion's hand and briefly embrace him.
A smiling Hamilton can be heard saying 'next year dude' before walking away. Finally Vettel was asked if he would've done anything different through the season.
He simply replied: "What does it matter now?" Vettel, needing to outscore the championship leader by 17 points to keep his title hopes alive, started on the front row but was quickly fending off Max Verstappen and Hamilton into Turn One.
"I don't fear him [Hamilton]. I like racing with him but obviously I would've liked a little bit more of that this year" Sebastian Vettel I dont understand the aggressive manoeuvre from Vettel in the first corners, complained Mercedes chairman Niki Lauda.
After being passed by the Red Bull and the Mercedes on the exit of second corner, Vettel ran into the back of Hamiltons car with the impact puncturing the Englishmans rear right tyre. The stewards decided that no investigation was necessary.
The drivers dropped back to 20th and 18th in the field respectively after their forced early pitstops, but Hamilton was crowned world champion after crossing the line in ninth with Vettel only fourth.

Chris Philp - Sky News - Fixed Odds Betting Terminals - Duration: 4:54.
Well the Conservative MP Chris Philp has been campaigning on this backing a
crack down on fixed term betting terminals he joins me now are you
satisfied with these proposals as enough
well I'm very pleased they published a
consultation they're proposing to limit the maximum bet on a fixed on betting
terminal to between two and fifty pounds but I very much hope it comes in at two
pounds I still think fifty pounds would be a great deal too high because of
fifty pounds you could still lose hundreds of pounds in a matter of a few minutes
Well would it actually limit the amount you could lose because presumably you just go on doing it
well obviously yeah if
somebody spent sort of six hours putting two pounds a go in you could
cumulatively lose a lot but clearly if you limit the amount per go it will be a
big step in the right direction and what really concerns me is that it's often
the most vulnerable people in society people on low incomes people who are
hoping for the big win that will transform their lives people even with
mental health problems who get most addicted to these terrible machines in
some cases you know they lose their livelihoods their house there was a man
I spoke to earlier today who you know his marriage had broken up and he lost
his children as a result so you know I think we should be clamping down on this
and I like I say, I hope it comes in to the bottom end of that range
would you like
to see them banned completely
well I think it would be sensible to put on a
strict limit I think two pounds is a good limit it's a low limit and I hope
it comes out at that end of the spectrum but I would I think these machines
are different to things like betting on football or horses where there is some
measure of you know personal judgement this is just literally putting money on
to a roulette wheel at a huge rate you can literally lose
hundreds of pounds in a matter of minutes
you see the counter to that is first
of all betting shops say they depend on them and thousands of jobs will be lost
and betting shots will close on high streets
well I think that's a poor
argument if something is clearly socially damaging and I think at the
hundred pounds bet limit these are socially damaging there's no argument
Yeah but there's 10s of thousands of jobs going
no argument to say that they should we should allow something to happen which
is deeply socially and personally damaging for purely economic reasons and
if you look at the wider the cost of that wider social damage I think there's
a very strong case you can make that actually and it ends up costing our
economy money Respublica - Phillip Blonde - at Respublica wrote a very good paper
analyzing this and he makes that case quite strongly
the other thing course is that if people are stupid enough to do
it the Treasury gets a big break off from all this so we all lose out because
there's less tax revenue
well as I said I think there are two sides to the
equation one is the tax revenue but the other side is the cost of the social
damage and when you weigh up both sides of the equation I'm not sure it comes
out positive but even if it did and I'm not sure I accept it does but even if it
did you know there isn't we shouldn't say we're willing to accept social
damage in order for a little bit extra
well we do for example with smoking I mean
smokers say they contribute much more in taxes than they cost the National Health
Service for example
Well look again I think there's a difference between literally
pouring money into these machines versus someone smoking you know cigarettes over
the course of a day the putting money into the machine is it's as
addictive people some people suggest it's as addictive neurologically as you
know crack cocaine or heroin the neurological effects in the brain and
the dopamine release are quite similar so I think it is damaging and it's like
it's right the government is moving to limit the way these machines operate
How many people do you think now are getting addicted or losing effectively their way
of life because of those machines
well you see a range of figures and I would
commend Respublicas report in this area but it runs into tens of thousands
it's a it's a problem on a significant scale and if you look at where these
fixed odds betting terminals are located they tend to be in areas which are more
socially deprived so it's people who are least able to afford to incur these
gigantic losses that end up getting hit and that is the social tragedy of it
do you think we need other curbs on betting shops mean for example
betting shops tend to cluster now so it's in the same high street you may
have you know four or even five betting shops each with four of these terminals
each one has a maximum of four and one of the reasons why you get multiple betting
shops on one high street is that each of them have the maximum of four terminals
so they're they're having a multiple shops to maximize the number of these
terminals on any one High Street and one other area the consultation is looking
at I think is advertising and you know we've had seen some press coverage
recently about you know things that appear to appeal to children being used
online we've heard about gambling adverts being used before the watershed
I do think we need to certainly limit they're all completely prohibit the
exposure that children have to gambling adverts because
particularly now you've got you know phones and access to parents phones it's
not as difficult as it once was for people under the age of 18 to get drawn
into this and so that is an area of particular concern as well but to be
clear if the government comes back says 50 pounds you're going to say not enough
I'd be very very disappointed if that's where we end up and I will be responding
to the consultation myself advocating for two pounds
thank you very much
indeed Chris Philp
