Cruisin’ was released by Motown Records on August 20, 1979, and would hit number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States. The song was sung by Smokey Robinson and he wrote the lyrics with fellow Miracles member Marv Tarplin. The song was a bigger hit in New Zealand, where it hit #1. The lyrics never indicate how one is cruising along, whether it be in a car, a boat or another form of transportation.

MEDIA RELEASE__ONU HealthWise Pharmacy now offers a free Remote Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) program for Medicaid patients with diabetes. Eligible patients receive a free wearable CGM device and ongoing remote support from a pharmacist via phone or text to help monitor blood sugar in real time, improve diabetes management, and reduce barriers to care.
This service was developed after recognizing that many Medicaid patients with diabetes face barriers to consistent glucose monitoring and follow-up care. Cost, transportation, limited appointment availability, and lack of real-time data often make it difficult for patients to manage their blood sugar effectively.

When addressing mental health concerns during pregnancy and postpartum, clinicians often focus mainly on depressive disorders. While screening for depressive symptoms remains essential, it is crucial to recognize that other significant conditions—such as perinatal anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and postpartum psychosis—are frequently overlooked and left untreated. Data indicate that up to one in six women may experience OCD symptoms and one in eight may have anxiety symptoms during the peripartum period.

One could argue that the GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) weight loss drugs made a significant impact in 2025. Approximately 12% of the U.S. adult population is currently taking a GLP-1 drug for weight loss, according to two different surveys. GLP-1 drugs were initially FDA-approved for treating type 2 diabetes, with the first being exenatide (Byetta®), which received approval in April 2005. To date, seven different GLP-1 medications have been approved and marketed in the U.S. for diabetes, while only three GLP-1 drugs have been approved specifically for weight loss.
