Long-awaited results of a major ovarian cancer study three decades in the making found screening women detected the disease before they developed symptoms but didnât save lives.
The findings are a devastating blow for ovarian cancer researchers, patients and their supporters who had hoped the trial involving more than 200,000 women would lead to early diagnosis and ultimately national screening programs that would prevent thousands of ovarian cancer deaths every year.
Christy Smith was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in February 2020.
PENDLETON â By a 5-2 vote, the Blue Mountain Community College Board of Education approved reducing the collegeâs staff by 14 positions, including seven layoffs, at a special board meeting on Friday, April 30.
The move represented a slight improvement from a previous projection that anticipated 11 layoffs as a part of 16 staff reductions, but BMCC administrators maintained the cuts needed to happen so the college could stabilize itself as it attempts to recover from a sustained period of declining enrollment exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic.
BMCC will lay off five supervisory employees that covered areas like grants, student success, admissions and marketing. The college is also laying off a business instructor and a web content specialist.

The final episode of Line of Duty was watched by millions on Sunday (2 May), but the only thing it got right was a “lesbian fairytale” ending for Jo Davidson.
According to the
BBC, the finale was the most watched episode of Line of Duty to date, with 12.8 million viewers tuning in, and finally saw the unveiling of “H”.
But the last episode of the sixth series was met with disappointment from viewers and critics alike, with
The Guardian’s Lucy Mangan describing it as “fine”, and
Metro’s Harry Fletcher writing that the finale “fell flat”.
