Boy reunites with lifesaving helicopter at Selinsgrove Airport Open House
SELINSGROVE — Four-year-old Liam Rising was reunited on Saturday with the type of medical helicopter that saved his life. Liam, who was visiting the Penn Valley Airport fourth annual Open House in Selinsgrove with his family, was born with a rare genetic disorder called congenital myasthenic syndrome, which caused him to have trouble breathing. He was transported within the first hours of his life by Life Flight from Evangelical Community Hospital to Geisinger in Danville. "It was 48 hours until I got to see him again. I was stuck at Evan and he was at Geisinger NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit)," his mother, Samantha Dock, of Selinsgrove, recalled on the tarmac of the Selinsgrove airport while her two sons sat in the Life Flight helicopter. "It's emotional being here. I'm grateful. He probably wouldn't be alive if not for Life Flight." Dock said she was taken to Evangelical for an emergency C-section. It wasn't known at the time, but the genetic disorder caused low muscle tone and weak crying as well as respiratory distress. "It's nice that he's four now and thriving, and he's able to see it (Life Flight) for himself," Dock said. "He loves planes and helicopters. I swear he'll be an EMT or something like that someday. And that's amazing because the first year of his life was just survival." Chester Atherton, the Life Flight and critical care base manager at Penn Valley Airport, said having Life Flight stationed at the airport and available for open house events are important to build relationships with the community. "Sometimes it can be big and scary for kids, but this lets them know we're right in their back yard and we're here to help, we're not here to hurt," he said. Dock, who is also the mother of 2-year-old Kamdem Rising, visited the airport during its fourth annual open house with hundreds of other visitors. Presented by the Penn Valley Pilots Organization, the event featured local hobbyists, nearby Experimental Aircraft Association chapters, airline recruiters, aircraft manufacturers, BigFoot Country Radio, local fire companies and food vendors. The event showcased aviation groups, vendors, exhibitors, fire companies, full-motion simulator, airline recruiters, aircraft fly-ins, and static displays, including an AutoGryo Cavalon gyrocopter owned by Ron Andres. "I can't take it anywhere without someone wanting to see it," Andres said. The Harold family, of Selinsgrove, and their grandfather James O'Brien, of Fort Myers, were fascinated by the gyrocopter as well as the whole event. "This is awesome," Paul Harold said. "We live across the creek, and we see airplanes coming in all the time." His daughter Alyvia Harold agreed. "Our whole house shakes sometimes," she said.

IIT Madras honours school teachers who inspired students to excel in JEE last year
The Indian Institute of Technology Madras has organised a two-day demo day on June 9 and 10, where candidates who have qualified in the Joint Engineering Examinations (JEE) will interact with students, alumni, and teachers and visit the facilities on the campus. Candidates unable to travel may participate in the online event to be held on June 3. Offline events are being held at six cities, including Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Jaipur, Vijayawada, Hyderabad, and Chennai. In Chennai, around 300 students and their parents will participate in the event. The students will also have an opportunity to attend classes that will be conducted by professors. They will visit laboratories and the Centre for Innovation. The aim of the effort is to help students decide their course of study. Institute director V. Kamakoti said the top 100 ranked students invariably choose computer science and engineering over core engineering subjects. 'We conduct several efforts like Shaastra, Saarang, Open House, and CFI Day. We want students to opt for core engineering over CSE,' he said. The institute has introduced awards to honour pre-undergraduate teachers whose efforts were instrumental in their students making it to the institute in 2024-25. The 'First Principles' Teachers' award (FPTA) recognises the teachers who helped the students understand concepts in physics, chemistry, and mathematics within the IIT-JEE syllabus. Institute director V. Kamakoti said students had two methods of learning; one is rote and arriving at the right answer by elimination in JEE. The other is understanding the concept and applying them to arrive at solutions. 'This is the ideal way of learning. This is how school education should be. We wanted to recognise such teachers,' he said. 'We asked the students who was their inspiration and we asked the first year students to nominate their teachers. The second group of students consistently come up with unexpected solutions. This was the reason we decided to honour them,' he said. Sabitha G.J., mathematics teacher from Ida Scudder ICSE School in Vellore, has a personalised way of teaching. Her student Adhil Ahmed, a student of the Department of Artificial Intelligence and Data Science said his teacher had motivated and inspired him. 'He would sit alone and solve mathematic problems in the afternoon. I sat with him and encouraged him,' she said. She sometimes uses dance movements and rhymes to teach concepts. Chemistry teacher Anurooop Naik of Bengaluru was nominated by his student Arun Radhakrishnan, a student of Department of Computer Science and Engineering. Mr. Naik said he would use daily incidents to explain concepts. He had a nickname for his students using chemical compounds that helped students remember the concepts. Mr. Naik is an alumnus of Banaras Hindu University and taught class 11 and 12 students in Srinagar for three years. He says they were the most enjoyable years so far. He plans to set up his own institute when he finds motivated physics and mathematics teachers. Prathap Haridoss, Dean, academic courses, and Amrutash Misra of AskIITM Initiative, and alumnus also spoke.
