Washington, D.C., 14 December 2012 (PAHO/WHO) — A series of articles in the latest edition of the Pan American Journal of Public Health explore the benefits of reducing dietary salt consumption for the prevention of cardiovascular disease and examine public health interventions for achieving this goal at the population level.
The special edition of the Pan American Journal of Public Health, the peer-reviewed scientific journal of the Pan American Health Organization/World Health Organization (PAHO/WHO), presents evidence and analyses related to salt reduction efforts in the countries of the Americas. The strategies are aimed at preventing and controlling noncommunicable diseases related to high blood pressure, which is the leading cause of death worldwide and one of the top causes of death in the Americas.
Three articles in the special October 2012 issue report the results of original research. Sánchez et al. provide an in-depth exploration of behavior related to health, salt consumption, and nutritional labeling preferences in Argentina, Costa Rica, and Ecuador. Claro et al. document attitudes, knowledge, and behavior related to salt consumption in Argentina, Canada, Chile, Costa Rica, and Ecuador. Ferrante et al. present estimates of the cost-effectiveness of reducing salt intake in Argentina.
In one of four "special reports," Campbell et al. document the need for program coordination to optimize salt and iodine intake. Nilson et al. discuss progress in a program on salt reduction in Brazil. He et al. document the adverse effects of excess salt intake and highlight the potential benefits of sodium reduction for hypertension, while Levings et al. report on progress toward sodium reduction in the United States.
A review article by Ji et al. provides a systematic analysis of studies comparing 24-hour and spot urine collections. Blanco-Metzler et al. report on progress in Costa Rica's national salt reduction program.
The Pan American Journal of Public Health (PAJPH) is an open-access, peer-reviewed monthly journal of PAHO/WHO. Its mission is to disseminate scientific public health information to strengthen national and local health systems and improve the health of the peoples of the Americas.

About ECM
February 28 , 2014
Reviews of the week
Spanish and German observers are impressed by Vijay Iyers ECM debut
Vijay Iyer publica Mutations, su espectacular debut en el sello ECM. El pianista norteamericano da unpaso de gigante en el processo de renovación de su instrumento en el jazz. [...] Vienen a colación estos detalles porque Vijay Iyer publica en estos días un disco que, con el título Mutations, representa no solo su debut en la fonográfica ECM; también es el estreno de un Iyer diferente, cuya abductora música seduce por igual a los amantes de los vértices impares de la música contemporánea y a los rastreadores de nuevos rumbos para el jazz de avanzada. [...] Esta ampliación de contenidos, y continentes, ya ha puesto en alerta a las mentes más privilegiadas de la crítica de jazz en el Reino Unido, que -como las de otros lugares- son conscientes de que en Mutations se ha gestado algo muy serio y completamente diferente a la música acometida por Vijay Iyer hasta el momento para las firmas ACT y Pi. Esta obra fija, de hecho, como ninguna otra anterior, los interrogantes y las respuestas de un músico asomado a la vanguardia desde una modernidad aprendida de maestros tan dispares como Cecil Taylor oAndrew Hill, pero también de Ellington y Thelonious Monk. Un acierto el cambio de compañía.
(Vijay Iyers new release Mutations a spectacular debut on the ECM label. The American pianist makes a giant step forward in the renovation process of his instrument within Jazz. [...] It is also the premiere of a different Iyer, whose enticing music seduces both lovers of contemporary music as well as the followers and trackers of advanced and pioneering jazz . [...] This widening of views has already raised the attention of some of the most revered Jazz critics in the UK who are aware that in Mutations something very serious has been gestated, completely different to what Vijay has accomplished to date for lanels like ACT or Pi Recordings, This work settles, like no other until now, the questions and answers of a musician overlooking the vanguard from a modernitiy learned from such different masters like Cecil Taylor, Andrew Hill, but Ellington and Thelonious Monk. Changing labels has been a real success.)
Luis Martin, ABC
'Mutations' nennt der indoamerikanische Musiker Vijay Iyer einen Kompositionszyklus, den er für Streichquartett, Elektronik und einen improvisierenden Pianisten schrieb. Eine fremdartige Schönheit und gleichzeitig eine tiefe Verwurzelung in der Jazzavantgarde der letzten Jahrhunderthälfte zeigt sich in den vielen Facetten des ambitionierten Werkes, das der New Yorker im September 2013 mit dem Produzenten Manfred Eicher aufnahm.
Karl Lippegaus, Deutschlandfunk
Momo Kodamas debut recording for ECM
La Vallée des Cloches
enchants a reviewer from the American West Coast
French music of the 20th century can be traced back to Debussy - except for the strain that stems from Ravel. Pianist Momo Kodama's entrancing new disc offers a glimpse of that second lineage, in performances that boast an apt combination of clarity and insinuation. She begins with Ravel's Miroirs, that fecund repository of Impressionist ideas and techniques, and then traces its influence through two later works, the brief and wonderfully evocative Rain Tree Sketch by Toru Takemitsu (a French composer in all but actual biography) and Olivier Messiaen's La fauvette des jardins. The Messiaen, a rarely performed late work infused (naturally) with bird calls, is a revelatory demonstration of how the distinctive figurations and voicings of Ravel's piano writing seep through nearly a century's worth of elaboration to surface in a difference harmonic and formal context. But the disc is worth hearing even if only for Kodama's crisp, pointed and sensuous playing of Miroirs, a performance both elegant and elusive.
Joshua Kosman, San Francisco Chronicle
US-reactions to Eleni Karaindrous
Here, for a prodution of Giorgios Cheimonas modern greek adaption of Euripides Medea is her gorgeously ritualistic musical journey through Euripides bleak world of poetry [...] Karaindrou freely admits that its brooding, droning intensity wouldnt necessarily cohere as drama on disc without producer Eicher reshaping it to do so. The result is quite beautiful and not much like any other music you name.
J.S., Buffalo News
This is music created for the Medea production put on by stage director Antonis Antypas, as performed at the Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus. The Medea enacted there is Giorgos Cheimonas' adaptation from the original Euripides version of the play. Musically it has a timeless, exotic quality. Eleni Karaindrou utilizes a 15-member chorus; Eleni herself effectively contributes a solo part. Plus there is an 8-member chamber group with strong Greek and Eastern Mediterranean associations. The ensemble consists of three clarinets, ney, a player of the Constantinople lute (sounding much like an oud) and lyra, then cello, the santour, and the bendir.With these means Ms. Karaindrou creates a music of great evocative beauty, with its ancient scales and traditional instruments providing sound color and spatial punctuation, the vocals from chorus and soloists extending the sound and all-in-all creating a through-composed modern ambient pomo sort of work that is very identifiably Karaindrou-esque. Even in the purely instrumental passages the reflective, haunting melodiousness of Karaindrou comes through. It sounds less like authentic ancient Greek-Eastern Mediterranean music as the idea of that as filtered by an authentic Eleni Karaindrou sensibility. And it is one of her very strongest works at that. The performances are excellent, the sound all you'd expect from ECM
Grego Applegate, Gapplegate Music Review
All About Jazz reviews the historical albums
Miroslav Vitous Group
Five Years Later
by Ralph Towner and John Abercrombie, now available as CD and as high resolution download, cut from the original analogue master
In exploring a multiplicity of reference points, from the neo-classical leanings of the closing Eagle, where Vitous' warm arco blends with Surman's gently searching bass clarinet, to the dark-hued cinematics of "Sleeping Beauty" and swinging but temporally shifting Gears, where Vitous delivers one of his most impressive pizzicato solos of the set, Miroslav Vitous Group is unequivocally a jazz record, but one whose multiplicity of stylistic touchstones also makes it a long overdue release that is, indeed, informed by all kinds of music. And it's good, tooexceptionally good, in fact.
Like its predecessor, Five Years Later is split between individual compositions and collective improvisation, though this time a full 23 minutes of the album's 50-minute run time is devoted to spontaneous creation. The composed music is wonderful, with Towner's knotty but intrinsically lyrical The Juggler's Etude one of his most memorable compositions to this day and Caminata a miniature of singular melancholic beauty. The contrasting light and dark of Abercrombie's Child's Play and more dramatic ebb and flow of Isla are further evidence of the guitarist's compositional evolution, in just a few short years. But it's the free improvisations that reveal just how much Towner and Abercrombie's shared language and innate chemistry had evolvedthe result of growth in their own separate projects and with more time spent on the road together. [...]some of the finest, most intuitive and intimately inspired dual-guitar music in the history of jazz.
John Kelman, All About Jazz

The new season of a certain cable-TV drama set in an ad agency in the early '60s is underway. And aside from making us crave Pall Malls and gimlets, it's making us wonder what the likes of Sterling Cooper would've done with some of the junk we sell. The dynamic illustrations, the cool layouts, the verbal wit, the casual sexism - your challenge this week:
Show us an ad for a past or current Woot product, as created by the ad men on Mad Men.
You can create your own entirely new ad or alter an existing one, but you will get points for starting from scratch.
Post your entry here by 11:59 AM (central) on Monday, August 31, 2009. Prizes are $20/$50/$100 for 3rd/2nd/1st. The rules and criteria for winning: our panel of volunteer judges can and will make stuff up as it goes along. Use Photoshop, linoleum blocks, pastels, MSPaint, cave painting, tattoos, tribal scarification, whatever, but it'll only be judged if it's visible in our forums as a jpg, gif, or png. As we are fond of saying, try to keep your maximum width to 550px. If you need a place to host your pictures, try www.imageshack.ws or www.photobucket.com. We have no connection to either, but they seem free and easy to use. And if you want us to be sure your entry was indeed your work, post links to your source images. The more sure we are that you did your own work, the more likely we are to consider it for a prize.
Wow -- I think I'm going to have to brush up on my Mad Men for this contest...
never seen it. time to hit hulu.
For those of us who don't watch Mad Men, is there something special about the ad style and humor? Or does this basically mean: create a 1960's styled ad for a Woot product? Maybe I just have to watch the show to get it? I'm too lazy to actually watch it and find out...

I just watched the first episode and it is more clever than funny. In the episode, the end result for advertising lucky strikes cigarettes when the government had just labeled them as dangerous, was to label the brand as "toasted" to get away from the poisonous image.
So take that I guess as you wish.

Thanks. I should come clean on that....it's a frame that I downloaded for Paint Shop Pro a long time ago. I just lucked out that the style and colors matched the picture of the lady. Probably should have included it as a source.

I'm completely new to these parts of the woot forums, but I thought these Photoshop/chop contests were too funny, so I decided to participate. I haven't seen Mad Men and the little bit of research I did didn't help me understand it, so if my picture just doesn't fit the theme then I understand. Thought I would give it a go anyways. I highly recommend reading through the original write up on the advertisement because my edited version correlates with it pretty well surprisingly. :D

What is it with these celebrities and their sex tapes? Why is Paris Hilton famous? Kim Kardashian? Our society and it's obsession with watching other people have sex! It just seems more taboo to watch a celebrity get their fuck on, and that's why you're probably here, right? Lucky for you, LeakedCelebrityTape.com hosts sex tape previews of all the hottest celebrities you can find. We constantly add new tapes as they're released, so check back often!
One of the first sex tapes to really hit the mainstream media was Pam Anderson and Tommy back in the early 90s. These two were not shy in the least bit. We're talking full on hardcore sex; Pam's pussy is to die for! The next big name to follow in Pam's footsteps was Paris Hilton. Her last name makes her famous and well-known, but darn she is a bimbo! Her tape, titled One Night In Paris was a huge hit in the mid 2000s. People loved watching Paris suck dick, and her famous blowjob scene is plastered all over the internet (here too!). Kim Kardashian had a similar story - a recognizable last name, and a desire to be famous (for fucking?). She sought her beau Ray J out, and worked his monster dong like we all figured she could. Vivid quickly snatched that baby up, and Kim's name quickly hit the mainstream. She now has her own TV show, clothing line, and all kinds of drama in the paparazzi world.
Celebrities are people too, and yes they do fuck each other. Many have filmed their fun times, and with the way technology and privacy is going... they're bound to end up flung across the web. Once it hits, there is no stopping it! Watch them all at LeakedCelebrityTape.com!

You talk about the bigger picture, but you don't seem to appreciate who matters most regarding what succeeds. It's not going to be the people on the doom9 forums, it's not going to be the people buying the kit in stores. The most important customers are the big OEMs, like Dell. And guess what? For those people, one of the most important requirements is being able to score points in the marketing game, so a nice open API matters LESS than "8 hours battery life" or some other marketing gimmick.
If you want a demonstration of the significance, look at Bruce Changs recent postings to the openchrome mailing lists. He pretty much admits the Via open source initiative was a result of OEM pressure.

Robo Smasher
Robo Smasher Overview
Robo Smasher is the first free to play game by KRU Interactive. The game is a third-person shooter where players control robots. While it is possible to defeat opponents by shooting them to death, a far better approach is to use the various blocks and traps scattered across the maps to crush them. There's a surprising level of strategy in Robo Smasher. Mastering map layouts is extremely important. New players may have a difficult time figuring out whats going on at first as blocks fly around smashing them to death. Like the similarly themed fighting MMO Bots, Robo Smash suffers from a lack of players making it difficult to find a game to play.
Game Modes - Battle Mode, Push Mode, Survival Mode, Capture Mode
Starting Classes:
Fire - Uses a fire weapon that will deal damage over time. One of the fastest mechro classes.
Power - A strong class that can take a lot of damage and packs a powerful punch. A slow mechro.
Assault - Basic mechro class with moderate stats. Uses a rapid fire weapon.

nonimmigrant is a foreign citizen who visits the United States
for a temporary purpose – tourism, work, or study – and, when
finished, leaves the United States. Before being permitted to
visit the United States as a nonimmigrant, foreign citizens must
prove their
nonimmigrant intent.
non-immigrants apply to visit to the United States, they must
declare their primary purpose for visiting.
Non-immigrants must declare this purpose at least twice: once
when applying for a visa at a United States embassy or consulate
and again at the U.S. port-of-entry (POE) where they arrive in
the United States. The declared primary purpose determines the
type of visa needed and the nonimmigrant class of admission when
admitted at the POE.
An F-1
nonimmigrant status, therefore, is granted to
individuals whose main purpose for entering the United States
(U.S.) is to complete a full course of study and then return to
their home country upon completion of their studies.

Sometimes the best gift you can give (or receive) is time.
In a generous act of goodwill, police officers across the state of Connecticut have volunteered their time today to give law enforcement in Newtown a Christmas holiday. It's rare for officers to get holidays off, but Sgt. Steve Santucci of Newtown told CNN, "Patrol officers and sworn personnel will be given the day off to be home on Christmas. Officers from surrounding towns will be patrolling Newtown."
Since the tragic shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary, Newtown police officers have been working nonstop.
Lt. Bob Kozlowsky of the Shelton, Connecticut police department, described it as simply "a police thing" to help out law enforcement brethren. "We'll always try to help out neighboring towns," he said. "Any time there's a tragedy, we'll try our best to lend a helping hand."
A Manchester police vehicle goes by the Sandy Hook Volunteer Fire and Rescue builing as police from other towns around the region came in to relieve Newtown officers on Christmas Day in Newtown, Conn. on Tuesday December 25, 2012.

'Puppy Bowl' saving lives
Sunday, February 3, 2013
Associated Press
Most of the puppies, however, are usually adopted by airtime since the show is filmed months ahead, said executive producer Melinda Toporoff, who is working on her fifth "Puppy Bowl." But Bernstein said the point is to show that animals just like the ones on the show can be found at any shelter at any time.
Only four of the puppies have yet to find new homes, Toporoff said. They include Tyson, Daphne and Sacha — three pit bull mixes from the Pitter Patter Animal Rescue in Silver Lake, Wis., — and Jenny, a terrier mix from the Pitty Love Rescue in Rochester, N.Y.
Each year, recruiting for the show is a logistical challenge for Kent and her crew of 80-plus. This year's show was particularly worrisome because taping was scheduled for October 2012 — just after Superstorm Sandy hit the East Coast.
Producers also were trying to find ways to incorporate older animals into the show, since shelters have more trouble finding homes for them than they do puppies and kittens, Toporoff said.

And you don't need a wayland display server, you just need the core wayland libraries. I guess the issue with the GTK backends is that it's not truly modular, and it needs to load the dependancies for all compiled in backends at run time, instead of just loading the specified backend like QT...
...but the dependancies really are not that much.
Sure they don't contribute to some projects in the open - they prefer to modify stuff in their own forks to avoid other benefiting from their enhancements.
I don't see any problem with the decision at this time. Wayland is not mature or ready for general consumption in any way, so why should they ship GTK with Wayland support? The very few users that like to experiment with Wayland just need to compile/install a Wayland-capable build of GTK. No big deal.
Ubutnu/Canonical 'prefer' there own forked code because (in many cases) there patches would most likely be rejected by their corresponding upstream (developers) anyway. Ubuntu's patches often aren't useful (from the developers perspective) and/or don't fit into the upstream project's goals. ie: why would gnome want to add ubuntu's patches to gnome-system-settings? (that are only useful for Unity), or why would gnome want to add ubuntu's gtk2/3 patches for overlay scrollbars? (which for me anyway, would be a feature i would NOT want).

Destination New Caprica. Game starting either after the other ends or right near the end, IE if the other is for certain 1 round or less away from ending. Pegasus rules+new exodus players and maybe with new exodus skill cards. That was workable before if players want me to toss them in also.
No cylon leaders from old way but I have a new idea if people like it. Generic cylon leader, draws 1 TRE and 2 other cards. So they draw normal for an outed cylon except they get 1 TRE also so they can double up on TRE but not any other card type. They also get a super crisis after sleeper mode starts. Opinions?
I will edit in everything into this post sometime later on as the game is not starting this weekend anyways but signup can start now if anyone knows they want in the next game.
IFIFIF we get enough players and people are able to start earlier on we can but only if everyone wants to start earlier.
Welcome to Battlestar Galactica: The Board Game, a game of politics, betrayal, and survival! Now with Pegasus Expansion
The previous game is here.
Copypaste from the original signup thread - changed and important bits in bold:
BSG is a board game based on the acclaimed SF tv show. The game contains references to only Season 1 of the show, and if any of the players so wish, I will ban discussing other seasons (most likely 4, as it's fairly new) entirely if they do not want to be spoiled. Readers and commenters should keep this in mind as well.
The game itself works on the basis of humans, cylons, actions and crises. All players are seemingly human in the beginning of the game, but one or two know privately that they are a Cylon.
The humans' task is to keep the Fleet alive and moving towards its objective, the planet of Kobol, and to root out the hidden Cylons.
The Cylons' objective is to prevent the human fleet from reaching Kobol by any means necessary, mostly covertly sabotaging their efforts or by exposing themselves and using special cylon actions to harm the humans.
Every round, every player has an action. After every player's action (unless they are a revealed Cylon), a crisis card is drawn. A crisis card is typically a scenario that if not resolved satisfactorily by expending resources (mostly skill cards that everyone draw on their turn) will cause some bad things to happen to the humans. This is the basis of the game - to survive the crises. The humans have the advantage of time, because crisis cards will automatically advance the time and the so called Jump Prep track, which allows the human fleet to progress towards Kobol when full.
Playing the game online works like this - I have a software tool called 'Deck Manager' which will handle the various decks in the game.
I will be the game master, handling game operations via private messages and public messages in this thread. I will keep the players up to speed on everything that is public information in the thread. Players will announce their public actions in the thread. Everything that only one player can know or find out, such as their true loyalty and their card hand, I communicate to them via PM.
The game also has a rule on communication - exact information should never be exchanged. For instance, you should be ambiguous on the strength of your card hand, instead of announcing "I have three strong red cards". You can always announce that you are a Cylon, but if you are actually a human, casting unnecessary doubt on yourself is bad sportsmanship, and if you are actually a Cylon, casting doubt on yourself is simply stupid. The paranoia between humans is what helps the Cylons the most, and makes the game so much fun.
(See also below ..)
Some things have been tweaked to help facilitate online play:
- At the bottom of every GM post, there will be a helpful Action Queue that announces what we are waiting for to continue the game. This will usually be the current player's move/action, but could also include such things as a decision from the President/Admiral.
- If you are at the top of the Action Queue, you have 24 hours to post/PM to complete it. Once the 24 hours pass, the top of the action queue will be auto-resolved, usually as a "do nothing" action.
- Skill checks will have 24 hour time limit. After 24 hours, the check will be resolved.
- If you do not play cards for the skill check, I'll let the other players berate you. If I have to auto-resolve a choice for you, 1st and 2nd offenses get a warning, 3rd time you get replaced. It might seem a bit harsh, but this is needed to keep the game moving.
- There will be leniency with the 24 hour rule over weekends
- All game actions should be bolded in Werewolf style (eg: ##move to Communications or ##use "Executive Order" on Helo).
- All face-down cards, including Quorum Cards and Skill Cards will be delivered to the players via PM/AIM. If your draw is straightforward (eg: Adama) your cards will be auto-drawn for you at the beginning of your turn. Players with multi-skills (eg: Apollo) or abilities allowing them to draw cards (eg: Baltar) need to post in the thread what type of card they are drawing (eg: ##draw 1 Politics 1 Engineering). Discards are to be posted openly in the thread.
- Skill Checks are handled slightly differently than in the regular rules. Players must announce the number of cards they are playing in the thread, then PM me the specific cards they are playing. This can be done in any order. Once everyone has PMed me, the check will be resolved.
- During Skill Checks, players may play cards in any order they choose. You do not have to start with the current player. (However: the official turn order can be enforced in game critical situations on request.)
- You may "pre-load" actions ahead of time; (eg: ##If my Viper is attacked, I'll use "Evasive Maneuvers".) This should be done via PM. Think about this, especially as most of the expansion skill cards are very timing-specific!
- Players do not choose the order in which Cylon ships are activated, as in the normal rules. Instead, ships are activated starting in Sector Alpha and proceeding clockwise around Galactica.
Do not forget the Secrecy Rules! (See also page 20 of the rulebook.)
In case of doubt, err on the side of caution.
The basic rule is that any statement made about cards in your hand should be one of two things:
1) A binary statement about card strength: "strong" or "weak". Players should never say "neither strong nor weak". Saying that you play "two big help cards and one small help" for instance is acceptable, though, since the player is still making binary statements.
2) A statement of possession for the purpose of using said posessed card for a specific purpose. For instance "I can XO Adama and then he can nuke the basestar" is acceptable. However, GM's discretion applies. It is not intended as a tool for figuring out other people's hand strengths, or as a roundabout way to divulge your own hand either.

When children get sick, the simple solution isn't always just a pill or spoonful away. Aside from the fact that many medications are not
recommended for children, it's also much easier for a child to overdose on medication than an adult.
In most cases, the amount of medicine a child should receive is determined by age, weight and height. When it comes to children and medication, reading labels is very important.
Dirk Killelea, Manager of NorthShore Evanston Hospital Pharmacy, shares the following "must-know" tips for giving children medications:
The best remedy for most kids is rest and hydration. If your child has a fever or cold, keep activities to a minimum and make sure they aren't too strenuous. Coloring, drawing or reading stories is a great way to spend time until he or she feels better.
If your child is experiencing loose stools or diarrhea, make sure to provide plenty of water or electrolyte-containing drinks like Pedialyte to prevent dehydration.
How do you manage your kids' illnesses? What remedies work best for you?
A good night's sleep can be the difference between night and day with children. Frequent lack of sleep can greatly impact a
child's physical, mental and social well-being. It's also hard on the entire family.
It's recommended that children between the ages of six and twelve get 10-11 hours of sleep each night. This allows them to be better rested for school, and to further their growth and development. The challenge with childhood sleep disorders is that they
aren't always easy to recognize. In fact, since the symptoms are so similar to other conditions (such as ADD and ADHD), sleep disorders often go misdiagnosed.
Mari Viola-Saltzman, DO, Sleep Medicine specialist, who sees both pediatric and adult patients, identifies some of the secondary effects childhood sleep
disorders may have:
How many hours of sleep do your children get each night? Do they have a nightly routine?
As the old adage goes, "You are what you eat." When it comes to your health, this saying is true — eating healthier foods will make you feel
better, have more energy and help you maintain your weight.
Many of the foods we eat—as tasty as they are—aren't always the easiest for our system to digest. This is true for highly processed foods, and foods high in sodium, sugar, saturated fats and cholesterol. It's not to say that, in moderation, we can't enjoy
some of these foods, but research has proven that a diet high in fresh food, especially green vegetables, may help prevent colon cancer.
Considering colon cancer is one of the most common cancers in men and women, it's nice to know that a balanced, healthy diet may be the first step toward disease prevention.
Yolandra Johnson, MD, Gastroenterologist at NorthShore, provides easy ways to work more greens and other vegetables into your daily diet:
What are some of your favorite dishes that include vegetables? What are some of your tricks for including veggies in your diet?
It's one thing to occasionally feel down, unenergetic and tired out, especially given the busy lives
so many of us lead. However, consistently experiencing feelings of sadness, exhaustion and anxiety to a point where it affects the rest of your life can be cause for concern.
Depression is a very common mental illness and impacts people in various ways. It is estimated that one in ten adults suffers from depression at some point during their lifetime.
Frederick Miller, MD, PhD, Psychiatrist at NorthShore, recognizes that living with depression can be a challenge. He offers the following tips for managing and coping
with depression:
What makes you happy? How to you manage feelings of sadness and/or depression?
Routine blood work can be done to test whether or not you have high cholesterol. The challenge for many lies in determining
what the numbers mean and what risks you may be at for developing other health conditions, including heart disease.
This blood work measures three different components:
The general standard for healthy levels state your LDL should optimally be below 100, HDL should be above 40 for men and above 50 for women, and your triglycerides value should stay below 150. So what can you do if your levels are a little high?
Jeffrey Marogil, MD, Cardiologist at NorthShore, offers the following suggestions for keeping your cholesterol in check:
Do you know what your cholesterol levels are? Have you made any changes in your diet or lifestyle to reduce them?
Does it ever feel like you just can't put on enough lotion during the winter months to keep your skin from being dry? With the
cold temperatures and icy walkways, winter can be tough on your body. And, it can be just as hard on your skin.
Dry, sometimes even itchy and flaky skin is a common condition for many when temperatures begin to drop. While the cooler outdoor temperatures may be one of the leading causes for dry skin, there are a handful of ways you can help keep your skin soft and well
Stephanie Mehlis, MD, Dermatologist, provides the following tips for reducing dry skin:
What skin products do you swear by to heal dry skin?
Snoring can impact more than just a restful night of sleep for you and a partner. Snoring is a condition that is caused
by the narrowing of the airways and relaxation of muscles in the back of the throat. When chronic, it can reduce the amount of oxygen being supplied to the body, put unnecessary stress on the heart or cause you to stop breathing.
Snoring can be an indicator of other health conditions. For example, sleep apnea—a condition that nearly half of chronic snorers have—can often be linked to cardiac and pulmonary diseases.
Alfredo Gonzalez, MD, Cardiologist at NorthShore, identifies the following symptoms to help determine if you have a sleep disorder:
How many hours of sleep on average do you get a night? Do you know if you snore?
A lot can change with our bodies over time, and it's normal for our vision to be one of these changes as we get older. Some of the first
signs of changing vision come in the form of needing reading glasses to view smaller print and requiring better, brighter lighting. Some people may also notice that they have trouble making out certain colors as well as trouble focusing on objects.
Some of the most common eye conditions to appear in elderly individuals include:
There is a lot that can be done to prevent and manage common eye conditions.
Joshua Herz, MD, Ophthalmologist, gives the following advice on what to look for to identify eye problems early:
Many eye conditions and diseases do not have symptoms. For this reason, it's important to see an eye care professional for a comprehensive dilated eye exam.
What do you do to keep your eyes healthy?
Let's put the heart back into February. Aside from Valentine's Day, this month is a great time to give some heartfelt
attention to our cardiovascular systems. Small changes can be made to your day-to-day routine to help keep your heart in shape.
Hani Salti, MD, shares the following advice for ensuring a healthy heart:
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through their
Million Hearts™ Initiative identifies the "ABCS" of improving cardiovascular care: Aspirin for those at risk; Blood pressure control; Cholesterol management; and Smoking cessation.
How do you keep your heart healthy?
Not all health conditions need to be treated with prescription or over-the-counter medications. In fact, in some cases,
herbal remedies and supplements can help relieve symptoms and improve health.
While there is no "magic" supplement or "quick fix," it is important to discuss any new treatment method (herbal or not) with your physician. This will ensure that no unwanted side effects or drug interactions will occur. To learn more about herbs and supplements,
Leslie Mendoza Temple, MD, Director of NorthShore's Integrative Medicine program, offers the following herbal alternatives:
Do you use herbal remedies to help relieve common health concerns? What works for you?
