Early ,'Objects In Space'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
It doesn't look like the doctors had contact with the patient after testing. My guess is they were doing the testing for the IAAF and the results went there. If Caster were having her own tests the results would have gone to her first.
I am not clear on where doctor/patient confidentiality goes sometimes, but that's how it always seems to go for athletic testing. To the governing organisation first.
Is LJ horrendously slow for anyone else?
Yep.

Yeah. I mean, when you do drug testing before starting a job, it's not you they come back to, it's the company.

...not in my experience. I was notified first, and also informed that as per the release I signed, my results were also being sent to my employer. But I was told *first*.

Not when I was tested.
But we're applying American law and practice on an international case. Not that I think it's right, mind you, because it's an epic fail, IMO, but I'm wondering how the laws/practices differ.
Morning Types Crash Faster Than Night Owls, Study Says
The early bird may get the worm, but there's something to be said about burning the midnight oil. In fact, according to a new study, staying up later and longer may increase alertness and productivity more than being an early riser.
According to the study as reported by Scientific American:
An hour and a half after waking, early birds and night owls were equally alert and showed no difference in attention-related brain activity. But after being awake for 10 and a half hours, night owls had grown more alert, performing better on a reaction-time task requiring sustained attention and showing increased activity in brain areas linked to attention.
I was not notified of drug test results either.
Oh, you fancy people with LJ access from work. You can probably go on FB too.
