Why Are People With IBD at Risk? People who have inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at risk for anemia. One reason for this is the poor absorption of vitamins and minerals that can occur because of inflammation or diarrhea. If the intestines can’t absorb enough iron, folate, vitamin B12, and other nutrients, the body won’t have what it needs to create more red blood cells. Another reason for anemia in people who have IBD is the blood loss that can occur with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis....

Just over 24 hours after Miles Mikolas was a strike away from a no-hitter for the Cardinals, Tyler Anderson took a no-no into the ninth for the Dodgers against the Angels.

Who would want to target academics? Underground militant animal-rights activists took credit for the attacks, but despite an FBI investigation, no one has been arrested. UCLA officials complain that protesters–angry over the school’s use of research primates–have continually harassed, threatened and vandalized the university, as well as its faculty and staff. Fed up, UCLA last week won a temporary restraining order in Los Angeles Superior Court against five individual protestors and three animal-rights groups: the Animal Liberation Front, the Animal Liberation Brigade and the UCLA Primate Freedom Project....
