Overpopulation Solution: Veterinarians donating time to help strays

LEBANON — This year, an unprecedented number of stray cats have been flooding rescue facilities, calling for a viable and safe solution for these furry friends. The Lebanon Veterinary Hospital offered a solution by creating the SNIPS (Spays, Neuters Impact Populations) program, in which veterinarians are donating their time to provide spay and neuter services for rescue organizations at a small cost. According to Bernadette Orscher, VP of marketing for the network of hospitals Piper Veterinary, this crisis is the consequence of various factors. One of the factors is that for each unaltered female cat, 36 kittens can be born every year. Other factors have played a role in this crisis, like the increased costs for spay and neuter procedures going from $400 to over $1,000 in Connecticut. Economic pressure has also led to an increase in pet abandonments. 'That flywheel of unspayed and neutered animals is just going to continue to raise the number of pet abandonment numbers,' she said. 'The state now has officially recognized the overpopulation issue. So, instead of putting additional strains on town resources, we're trying to help and get ahead of it.' Although rescues get help through the State Voucher Program to finance these procedures, the number of animals in need have led many rescues to be out of vouchers before the year ended. With SNIPS, the Lebanon Veterinary Hospital is providing these procedures at a discounted rate, whether they still have these vouchers or not. In a few numbers, a dog spay cost over $800, which is reduced to $200 with the SNIPS program. For cats, the procedures start at $80. In addition to each surgery, the animals also get two vaccinations at no additional cost. 'The veterinary team is absorbing a significant amount of the cost to offer this to rescues,' she said. 'So, we're trying to make sure we can keep it as inclusive as possible and open as possible.' Throughout the summer, Piper Veterinary and the Lebanon Veterinary Hospital will be hosting programs to help animals get the medical attention they need to limit overpopulation. 'We're trying to maximize the number of animals that we're able to help and support. And that's best negotiated through rescue groups,' Orscher said. On June 9, they will have a clinic day with PAWS cat shelter and are still scheduling events to do throughout the summer. 'There's nothing harder in vet medicine than seeing discarded or unwanted pets,' said Dr. Steven Zickmann of Lebanon Veterinary Hospital. 'We have to do better, or it will never stop.'

Matter Neuroscience announces collaboration with Stanford Medicine combining Matter protocol with real-time fMRI neurofeedback to support emotion-based interventions in depression

This collaboration sets out to explore whether using the Matter Neuroscience protocol combined with real-time neurofeedback can influence emotional brain networks relevant to depression. PALO ALTO, Calif., June 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Matter Neuroscience is pleased to announce a collaboration with Stanford Medicine's Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences Department. The controlled, multi-arm study will enroll at least 210 depressed patients with the objective to significantly reduce clinical endpoints using real-time 7T fMRI neurofeedback in combination with the Matter protocol selectively activating key brain areas hosting distinct positive emotions. The clinical endpoints are paralleled with several molecular, emotional and behavioral biomarkers. If successful, the findings can be integrated into a full-scale clinical trial with the potential to inform future non-pharmaceutical curative therapies for depression. Professor Nolan Williams, M.D. an Associate Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University and Director of the Stanford Brain Stimulation Lab will serve as the Principal Investigator on the study. 'This study allows us to investigate how targeted emotion training, guided by real-time fMRI, may influence mood-related brain circuits,' said Dr. Williams. 'What makes this particularly interesting is the opportunity to evaluate both the neural mechanisms involved in emotion regulation and the feasibility of translating this approach into a deliverable treatment in the clinic or home one day.' Matter CEO Axel Bouchon shares, 'After we have seen positive effects in emotional wellbeing of healthy individuals in our studies in the past 4-5 years, it is just one of the most exciting studies I have witnessed in my career. Ultimately, we try to use the latest advancements in MRI technology and the patients' good memories as a personalized medicine to reduce, maybe permanently cure, their depressive symptoms.' About Matter Matter Neuroscience was founded in 2019 by Axel Bouchon and Ben Goldhirsh. Matter's mission is to use neuroscience to help people live longer, healthier, happier lives. Matter Neuroscience runs a consumer technology business ( ) and a medical business addressing healthy individuals and patients, respectively. Matter is led by CEO Axel Bouchon (Moderna, Bayer, ARCH Venture Partners.) Ben Goldhirsh (GOOD Worldwide and the Goldhirsh Foundation) serves as Matter's Chairman and Head of Product.

Another Diddy ex testifies to ‘obligation' in coerced, choreographed sexual encounters

A key witness, 'Jane,' has provided graphic testimony in the federal trial of Sean 'Diddy' Combs, alleging coercive sexual encounters. Combs allegedly orchestrated disturbing acts involving multiple women, with testimony also backing claims made by ex-girlfriend Casandra Ventura. The trial has featured intense courtroom moments, including accusations of witness manipulation by Combs and shocking allegations from witnesses about violent and exploitative behaviour. A key witness took the stand in the federal trial of Sean 'Diddy' Combs Thursday, giving graphic detail of choreographed sexual encounters with the music mogul that were allegedly coercive, testimony that's core to the prosecution's case. The woman, who is speaking in court under the pseudonym Jane, began delivering testimony that is expected to last for days and which so far mirrors descriptions provided by another marquee witness against Combs, his ex-girlfriend Casandra 'Cassie' Ventura. Combs, 55, faces upwards of life in prison if convicted of racketeering and sex trafficking crimes. Both Jane and Ventura are key witnesses to the latter charges. Jane took the stand after some courtroom drama: the judge threatened to remove Combs after he was 'looking at jurors and nodding vigorously' while a different witness testified. Calling Combs's behaviour 'absolutely unacceptable,' Judge Arun Subramanian said, 'It cannot happen again.' READ | 'Sometimes I scream in my sleep': Witness claims Diddy dangled her from 17th-story balcony Communications between a defendant and a jury are strictly prohibited. The court had been hearing testimony from Bryana Bongolan, a friend of Ventura's who had alleged that Combs dangled her from a 17th-story balcony before throwing her against furniture. Combs's gestures to the jury took place as Bongolan was under tense questioning from his defence team, who sought to cast her as an unreliable witness who abused drugs. 'Hotel nights' Jane's testimony was highly anticipated: she began by detailing how she had met Combs through a friend who was dating him at the time. But he came on strongly to Jane, she said, and when her friend got engaged to someone else, she began seeing Combs romantically. Their relationship began in earnest during a whirlwind five-day date at a Miami hotel, she said, describing Combs - as many others during the trial have - as 'larger than life.'

Several heady months followed, including a romantic trip to Turks and Caicos and the Bahamas in February 2021. She said Combs first gave her illicit drugs on that trip. When the vacation ended, he wired her $10 000 because she had been unable to work - at the time, she was creating content for brands on social media - and was a single mother. Jane silently collected herself and held her face in a tissue as she described how her blissful early days with Combs took a sharp turn in May 2021 when he began talking about his fantasies of seeing her with other men. She acquiesced because she wanted to make Combs happy, she said, and to her surprise, he arranged for another man she dubbed Don to meet them at a hotel that very night. AFP Jane thought the experience was a one-time thing, but she said instead, it became 'a door I was unable to shut.' The 'hotel nights' became a regular feature of their relationship, Jane told jurors, even when she said she didn't want it. 'He was just dismissive,' she said, saying that approximately 90 percent of their relationship became a pattern of her having sex with other men under Combs's direction. Full-time job Jane's descriptions of the 'hotel nights' - her provocative attire that Combs requested, red mood lighting, heavy drug use and copious baby oil - closely tracked with the testimony that Ventura gave on the stand of what she called 'freak-offs.' Jane said that the amount of time she spent getting ready for hotel nights with Combs, which he demanded at a moment's notice and sometimes flew her to, meant she did not work. Money from Combs and child support from her previous relationship were essentially her only income, she said. That testimony echoed Ventura's, who had said her freak-offs with Combs came to feel like a full-time job. Combs put Jane up in a home in Los Angeles for $10 000 a month, she said, and when she spoke against hotel nights, he would bring up that point.

Jane told jurors their relationship continued up until Combs's arrest in September 2024. Prosecutors say he ran a criminal enterprise of high-ranking employees and bodyguards who enforced his power with illicit acts, including kidnapping, bribery and arson. Along with Ventura and Jane, witnesses have included former employees of Bad Boy Enterprises, Combs's company. Jane's testimony will continue on Friday. The trial is expected to last at least another month.
