"The Genius of Charles Darwin" won "Best TV Documentary Series of 2008" at the British Broadcast Awards.

Randolph Nesse is the co-author of "Why We Get Sick: The New Science of Darwinian Medicine" (along with George C. Williams).

Richard Dawkins is a British ethologist, evolutionary biologist and popular science author. He was formerly Professor for Public Understanding of Science at Oxford University. He was voted Britain's leading public intellectual by readers of Prospect magazine and was named one of Time Magazine's "100 Most Influential People" for 2007.

Dawkins came to prominence with his 1976 book "The Selfish Gene", which popularised the gene-centred view of evolution and introduced the term "meme". He is a prominent critic of creationism and intelligent design. In his 1986 book "The Blind Watchmaker", he argued against the watchmaker analogy, an argument for the existence of a supernatural creator based upon the complexity of living organisms. Instead, he described evolutionary processes as analogous to a blind watchmaker. He has since written several popular science books, and makes regular television and radio appearances, predominantly discussing these topics.

Dawkins is an atheist, secular humanist, sceptic, scientific rationalist, and supporter of the Brights movement. In his 2006 book "The God Delusion", he contends that a supernatural creator almost certainly does not exist and that faith qualifies as a delusion − as a fixed false belief.

Signs and symptoms
==================

Gout is characterized by excruciating, sudden, unexpected, burning pain, as well as swelling, redness, warmth, and
stiffness in the affected joint. This occurs commonly in men in their toes but can appear in other parts of the
body and affects women as well. Low-grade fever may also be present. The patient usually suffers from two sources of pain. The crystals inside the joint cause intense pain whenever the affected area is moved. The inflammation of the tissues around the joint also causes the skin to be swollen, tender and sore if it is even slightly touched. For example, a blanket or even the lightest sheet draping over the affected area could cause extreme pain.

Gout usually attacks the big toe (approximately 75 percent of first attacks); however, it also can affect other joints such as the ankle, heel, instep, knee, wrist, elbow, fingers,
and spine. In some cases, the condition may appear in the joints of small toes that have become immobile due to impact
injury earlier in life, causing poor blood circulation that leads to gout.

Patients with longstanding hyperuricemia can have uric acid crystal deposits called tophi
(singular: tophus) in other tissues such as the helix of the ear. Elevated levels of uric acid in the urine can lead to uric acid crystals precipitating in the kidneys or bladder, forming uric acid kidney stones.

Black Males in Schools: Mental Health, Wellness and the Misdiagnosis of ADHD

Dr. Ivory A. Toldson presents findings from "Breaking Barriers: Plotting the Path to Academic Success for School-Age African-American Males."

Quality of life, as measured by how happy the student felt about his life, was the strongest emotional predictor of academic success among school-age black males. Academically successful African-American males were almost twice as likely to report feeling happy about the quality of their life when compared to those with failing grades. Feeling tired in the morning and feeling lonely were additional mental health factors that significantly impaired academic functioning among black male students.

Presentation at "Breaking Barriers: The Obama Administration, The 111th Congress and the Future of School-age Black Males" The Congressional Black Caucus Foundation (CBCF), along with Howard Universitys School of Education and the Open Society Institutes Campaign for Black Male Achievement, hosted the forum. The three-hour event took place in the Senate Caucus Room (SR-325) of the Russell Senate Office Building on Friday April 24.
