THURSDAY, Jan. 31 (HealthDay News) -- Marriage appears to reduce the risk of heart attacks for both men and women, according to researchers in Finland.
Other studies have shown that being single or living alone increases the risk for developing and dying from heart disease. Many of these studies, however, were only among men, the researchers said, while this new study includes both sexes.
"Our study suggests that marriage reduces the risk of acute coronary events and death due to acute coronary events in both men and women and at all ages," said lead researcher Dr. Aino Lammintausta, of Turku University Hospital.
"Furthermore, especially among middle-aged men and women, being married and cohabiting are associated with considerably better prognosis of incident acute coronary events both before hospitalization and after reaching the hospital alive," she said.
The report was published Jan. 31 in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology.
For the study, Lammintausta's team collected data on more than 15,300 people who suffered heart attacks between 1993 and 2002. Among these people, about 7,700 died within 28 days of their attack.
Looking at the role marriage might play in the likelihood of having a heart attack, the researchers found that unmarried men were 58 percent to 66 percent more likely to have a heart attack, as were 60 percent to 65 percent of single women, compared to members of married couples.
The gap in risk of dying from a heart attack was even greater for single men and women, the researchers said. For single men, the risk of dying within 28 days of a heart attack was 60 percent to 168 percent higher than for married men; for single women, the risk of death due to heart attack was 71 percent to 175 percent higher than for married women.
The odds of dying from a heart attack were increased for unmarried men and women re

Year three is a biggie for the Videograss crew. First off, they've got two videos coming out, second they've got Nick Dirks back from his leg snapping injury and third, they've got Shoot the Moon. This video is going to blow minds, I can feel it. From Dirks' three knockout shots in this teaser to more broken boards and hammer time activities than I've seen in a long time. Next to Travis Rice's new movie, this should be the one that blows your mind.

TravelPod Member ReviewsHotel Kris Domenico Toledo
This is our second time to stay here. We first stayed here back in 2004. The hotel is on a hill overlooking the town of Toledo, beautiful views. The rooms are very clean and loved the large bathroom. They offered a delicious European breakfast with meats, cheeses and plenty more! Our triple room was 81 euros, which we found very reasonable for the luxury of the hotel.

Holy Toledo

"I just like to use the football analogy. I'm the head coach and my job is to direct the team down the field and throughout the game. But Vern and Todd are the star quarterback and the star defensive player. And Tracy is the all-conference player and my directors are the all-conference players. So it's very much a team-oriented thing. But yes, ultimately I'm the guy who has to decide what we cover and when."

Personally, I'm not holding my breath waiting for rousing choruses of "Kumbaya" to be echoing through the Capitol any time soon.
Immigration, global warming, Cuba, Keystone, with much more to come. For the Left, it comes as a kind of relief. For the Right, the gauntlet has been thrown down and the fight has begun.
Loath as we are to admit it, there was no single Biggest Winner Of 2014, because the award must be handed, collectively, to the Republican Party. A case could be made for Mitch McConnell, since he will win the biggest prize of any Republican next year: control of the United States Senate.
If Jeb does run, he may face Hillary Clinton on the Democratic side. Now, a "Clinton vs. Bush" contest doesn't exactly thrill many people who are looking for perhaps a little more variety (and a little less dynasty) in our presidential choices, but it is indeed worth contemplating at this point, at least if Jeb is serious about running.
Hillary is electorally vulnerable to a Republican campaign that paints her as the candidate of economic extremes.
If conservatives really want citizens in control or prefer to reduce the power and influence of a few individuals and groups, they could team up with liberals who have pushed this for years.
A legal, constitutionally protected way to defeat racism is right in front of us. After all, everyone can relate to not wanting to be viewed as a criminal, regardless of how they feel about climate change or taxes.
The 90-minute undertaking is a call for justice when it's become shockingly clear that injustice looks to be a national scourge no less potent now than it was nine decades ago.
There are plenty of metaphors to choose from, as we all breathlessly watch the Republican Party make their latest attempt at semi-rational governing.
After years of entrenched positioning of both parties, the president finally used his now famous pen and created a new dynamic; the immigration debate in America has changed forever. And that is a good thing for the country.
It's a sign of how far right the Republican Party has moved that John Boehner is the standard bearer for moderate Republicans. But there's a new meaning to the word "moderate" that illuminates the new political reality for the GOP and for the country.
Yes, apparently that's a new word now: "cromnibus." Now, some, editorially-speaking, have been insisting on "CRomnibus" or "Cromnibus," but for the time being here, we've decided that it doesn't qualify for proper-name status in any way.
When Congress wouldn't pass a bill, the president had to act on immigration and deportation policy, to keep families intact -- a measure that affected 40 percent of the undocumented immigrants in the United States.
Both guns and tobacco are intrinsically dangerous. Either might have redeeming value to be sure (defense and social pleasure, respectively), but an imaginary world in which there were no guns and no tobacco would be, well, safer. And neither should be the focus of the debate on American liberty.
If the Republican leadership can sell it to enough of its members, it could be a way out of the perpetual crisis machine that the budget has become. By separating the politics from the actual real-world results, it allows both factions of the Republican Party to get what they want.

What are your opinions on the following boys name combo's
Hugh Zachariah
Declan Thomas
William Theodore
Otto Maximillian
Posted 14 February 2013 - 09:23 AM
I love Otto! Not sure about Maximillian though, bit of a mouthful. We have Otto on our list with Leonard as a mn.
Otto Leonard. Leonard is a family name. Are your mn's family names?
I think th other three all work nicely, I think choose your favorite first name and go with that!
Posted 14 February 2013 - 09:25 AM
Hugh Zachariah - it's nice. I'm not crazy about Zachariah
Declan Thomas - both nice names, think I would prefer Thomas Declan
William Theodore - easily the best of the bunch, I love this.
Otto Maximillian - very cool. has a slightly different feel to William Theodore, but I still like it.
Posted 14 February 2013 - 09:33 AM
Hugh Zachariah - LOVE
Declan Thomas - dislike
William Theodore - like but dont love
Otto Maximillian - I LOVE the Otto part but not the Maximiilan part.
I think Otto Zachariah is a better combo (and the winner )
Posted 14 February 2013 - 09:35 AM
I like Hugh, Thomas and William, dislike Declan, Zacharian and Otto, and really really really dislike Maximillian and Theodore - which means that I don't like both names in any of your combinations.
If I had to choose, I would choose Hugh Zachariah.
But if I could mix them up, I would much prefer:
William Hugh
Hugh William
William Thomas
Thomas Hugh
Posted 14 February 2013 - 09:36 AM
Hugh Zachariah - love Hugh, not Zachariah. Hugh Maximillian?
Declan Thomas - ok, prefer Thomas to Declan
William Theodore - lovely
Otto Maximillian - it works, I'm just not real keen on Otto.
I think they all work as combos, I'm just not keen on all the names individually. As MN's are not really noticed too much my favourite would be based on first name, so Hugh Zachariah, 2nd William Theodore.
Posted 14 February 2013 - 09:38 AM
My favourites of those names are Hugh, Thomas and Theodore.
Hugh Thomas?
Posted 14 February 2013 - 10:45 AM
Hugh Zachariah - ok - prefer Zachariah Hugh
Declan Thomas - nice, Thomas Declan nicer
William Theodore - ok, prefer Liam Theodore
Otto Maximillian - no, prefer Maximillian Otto
Posted 14 February 2013 - 01:51 PM
The others are all fine but Otto Maximillian is a stunner. Fantabulous!
Posted 14 February 2013 - 02:01 PM
Out of your list I like : Zac instead of Zachariah, Declan, Thomas and William. Not a fan of Otto or Maximillan like Max though as for Hugh I can take or leave
Posted 14 February 2013 - 02:08 PM
QUOTE (tres-chic @ 14/02/2013, 10:38 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
My favourites of those names are Hugh, Thomas and Theodore.
Hugh Thomas?
I love Hugo Thomas
Posted 14 February 2013 - 02:13 PM
Declan Thomas is my favourite. Otto Maximillian sounds OTT to me.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 07:23 AM
I think Otto Zachariah is a better combo (and the winner wink.gif )
I hadn't thought of that one, I like it, thanks.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 07:31 AM
I always find Hugh a really difficult name to say as it doesn't really seem to have any distinct sounds to it. Not a fan of Zachariah either but all the others I like, especially Otto (it was my boy's fantasy name ) but not too keen on Maximillian. I prefer Otto Theodore from your list.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 08:04 AM
I like Declan Thomas and prefer Otto Maxwell to maxmilliam. William Theodore would make me think of Bill & Ted's excellent adventure.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 08:13 AM
Hugh Zachariah - like this a lot (though would avoid the name Hugh if child is likely to be overweight)
Declan Thomas - love the name Thomas, don't like Declan
William Theodore - like this, but prefer William with Thomas (for some reason the name Theodore doesn't grab me..it really does sound like one of those "nerdy" names to me)
Otto Maximillian - not a fan
I like Zachariah Thomas as a combo.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 08:17 AM
Hugh Zachariah - like this a lot (though would avoid the name Hugh if child is likely to be overweight)
Going by my other children, highly unlikely.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 11:11 AM
Otto Maximillian is my favourite. The others are all good, but not as interesting.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 04:34 PM
Hugh Zachariah - I love Hugh, but not a fan of Zachariah (would like Hugh Zachary a lot though)
Declan Thomas - I've always loved Declan, and Thomas is a fine name if a little dull. I'd love Declan Theodore.
William Theodore - Fine, but I don't love William
Otto Maximillian - Nice, but a little bit over the top for my tastes.
So although I know they weren't combos you listed but I love Hugh Zachary or Declan Theodore.

I just noticed the option to select Java Language Levels 7.0 and 8.0 in IntelliJ (under Project Settings).
Where can I find a concise description of what these enable? Level 7.0 is stated to enable "Dimonds" (what is this?), Strings in switches (cool!), and "etc..." ?
Level 8.0 has "Type Annotations", which I don't know of.
Do I have to use the appropriate JDK to setup a higher level? IntelliJ doesn't seem to mind me setting Language Level 7.0 and JDK 1.6.

Article: Functional specialisation in the hippocampus and perirhinal cortex during the encoding of verbal associations[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was employed to investigate the contributions of medial temporal lobe (MTL) regions to encoding operations underpinning recollection and familiarity. Participants first studied word pairs. Words in pairs were either weakly or strongly semantically related. In a subsequent retrieval task, participants distinguished between studied pairs, unstudied pairs, and recombined pairs formed from words taken from different studied pairs. Greater activity at encoding for correct judgments to studied pairs with strong, rather than weak, semantic relationships was assumed to index processes supporting subsequent familiarity-based responding. Greater activity for correct judgments to studied pairs than for recombined pairs identified incorrectly as studied pairs was assumed to index processes contributing to recollection-based responding. Evidence that these assumptions were reasonable was obtained in independent behavioural studies, while the outcomes of these fMRI contrasts indicated links between perirhinal cortex and familiarity, and anterior hippocampus and recollection. This functional separation is consistent with models in which the hippocampus and perirhinal cortex support two separable processes that contribute to memories for verbal associations.Neuropsychologia 06/2011; 49(9):2746-54. DOI:10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2011.06.002 · 3.45 Impact Factor
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The neural substrates of memory for when events occurred are not well described. One reason for this is that the paradigms used to date have permitted isolation of only some of the relevant memory processes. In this experiment, functional magnetic resonance imaging was used to identify for the first time brain regions that support two distinct bases upon which "when" judgments can be made. Seventeen human participants (6 male) completed a continuous recognition memory task where the interval between presentation and re-presentation of words varied between 5 and 25 intervening words (the lag). The task on each trial was to distinguish repeated words from those presented for the first time, and to indicate the lag for repeated words. The inferior parietal lobe showed greater activation for shorter lag judgments, regardless of judgment accuracy. The lingual gyrus, by contrast, was more active for correct than for incorrect lag judgments, regardless of the interval between first and second item presentations. Both of these regions have been linked in previous work to the process of recollection, and the findings described here represent a novel neural dissociation across regions that deploy mnemonic information in fundamentally different ways to support judgments about when events occurred.The Journal of Neuroscience : The Official Journal of the Society for Neuroscience 05/2010; 30(20):7099-104.

ABSTRACT: When presented with an item or a face, one might have a sense of recognition without the ability to recall when or where the stimulus has been encountered before. This sense of recognition is called familiarity memory. Following previous computational studies of familiarity memory, we investigate the dynamical properties of familiarity discrimination and contrast two different familiarity discriminators: one based on the energy of the neural network and the other based on the time derivative of the energy. We show how the familiarity signal decays rapidly after stimulus presentation. For both discriminators, we calculate the capacity using mean field analysis. Compared to recall capacity (the classical associative memory in Hopfield nets), both the energy and the slope discriminators have bigger capacity, yet the energy-based discriminator has a higher capacity than one based on its time derivative. Finally, both discriminators are found to have a different noise dependence.Neural Computation 10/2009; 22(2):448-66. DOI:10.1162/neco.2009.12-08-921 · 1.69 Impact Factor
Article: A Single-Trace Dual-Process Model of Episodic Memory: A Novel Computational Account of Familiarity and Recollection[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Dual-process theories of episodic memory state that retrieval is contingent on two independent processes: familiarity (providing a sense of oldness) and recollection (recovering events and their context). A variety of studies have reported distinct neural signatures for familiarity and recollection, supporting dual-process theory. One outstanding question is whether these signatures reflect the activation of distinct memory traces or the operation of different retrieval mechanisms on a single memory trace. We present a computational model that uses a single neuronal network to store memory traces, but two distinct and independent retrieval processes access the memory. The model is capable of performing familiarity and recollection-based discrimination between old and new patterns, demonstrating that dual-process models need not to rely on multiple independent memory traces, but can use a single trace. Importantly, our putative familiarity and recollection processes exhibit distinct characteristics analogous to those found in empirical data; they diverge in capacity and sensitivity to sparse and correlated patterns, exhibit distinct ROC curves, and account for performance on both item and associative recognition tests. The demonstration that a single-trace, dual-process model can account for a range of empirical findings highlights the importance of distinguishing between neuronal processes and the neuronal representations on which they operate.Hippocampus 01/2009; 20(2):235-51.

ABSTRACT: It has been suggested that the mammalian memory system has both familiarity and recollection components. Recently, a high-capacity network to store familiarity has been proposed. Here we derive analytically the optimal learning rule for such a familiarity memory using a signal- to-noise ratio analysis. We find that in the limit of large networks the covariance rule, known to be the optimal local, linear learning rule for pattern association, is also the optimal learning rule for familiarity discrimination. In the limit of large networks, the capacity is independent of the sparseness of the patterns and the corresponding information capacity is 0.057 bits per synapse, which is somewhat less than typically found for associative networks.Biological Cybernetics 12/2008; 100(1):11-9.

Article: Moderate hypoglycaemia after learning does not affect memory consolidation and brain activation during recognition in non-diabetic adults[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Some aspects of memory performance are impaired during acute hypoglycaemia. The hippocampus is critical to formation of long-term memory, and may be particularly sensitive to hypoglycaemia. This study examined whether moderate hypoglycaemia occurring after learning would disrupt the consolidation process, and used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to identify accompanying changes in brain activation. Sixteen non-diabetic subjects each underwent two glucose clamp studies. During euglycaemia (4.5 mmol/L), subjects tried to memorize a series of words and a series of pictures of faces. Then, either hypoglycaemia (2.5 mmol/L) was induced for one hour, or euglycaemia was maintained. During subsequent uncontrolled euglycaemia, subjects' recognition of the word and face stimuli was tested, with simultaneous fMRI to measure brain activation during recognition. Face identification scores were 67.2% after euglycaemia and 66.9% after hypoglycaemia (p = 0.895). Word identification scores were 78.0 and 77.1% respectively (p = 0.701). Analysis of the fMRI identified two foci where activation was altered after hypoglycaemia compared with euglycaemia, but these were not in regions associated with memory, and were probably statistical artefacts. One hour of hypoglycaemia at 2.5 mmol/L induced 20-40 min after learning did not disrupt memory consolidation. fMRI did not show evidence of altered brain activation after hypoglycaemia. Consolidation may be relatively resistant to hypoglycaemia, or may have been complete before hypoglycaemia was induced. The study was powered to detect a large effect, and provides some reassurance that moderate hypoglycaemia does not cause major disruption of previously learned memories in people with insulin-treated diabetes.Diabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews 03/2008; 24(3):247-52.

Article: Investigating the functional interaction between semantic and episodic memory: convergent behavioral and electrophysiological evidence for the role of familiarity.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Throughout our lives we acquire general knowledge about the world (semantic memory) while also retaining memories of specific events (episodic memory). Although these two forms of memory have been dissociated on the basis of neuropsychological data, it is clear that they typically function together during normal cognition. The goal of the present study was to investigate this interaction. One influence of semantic memory on episodic retrieval is 'Levels Of Processing'; recognition is enhanced when stimuli are processed in a semantically meaningful way. Studies examining this semantic processing advantage have largely concluded that semantic memory augments episodic retrieval primarily by enhancing recollection. The present study provides strong evidence for an alternative relationship between semantic and episodic memory. We employed a manipulation of the semantic coherence of to-be-remembered information (semantically related vs. unrelated word pairs) during an associative recognition memory test. Results revealed that associative recognition is significantly enhanced for semantically coherent material, and behavioral estimates (using the process dissociation procedure) demonstrated concomitant changes in the contribution of familiarity to retrieval. Neuroimaging data (event-related potentials recorded at test) also revealed a significant increase in familiarity based retrieval. The electrophysiological correlate of familiarity (the mid-frontal ERP old/new effect) was larger for semantically related compared to unrelated word pairs, but no difference was present in the electrophysiological correlate of recollection (the left parietal old/new effect). We conclude that semantic memory and episodic memory do indeed interact in normal functioning, and not only by modulating recollection, but also by enhancing familiarity.NeuroImage 02/2007; 34(2):801-14.

ABSTRACT: One process involved in recognition memory is familiarity discrimination. Familiarity distinguishes almost immediately after stimulus presentation whether the item was previously encountered (old) or novel. By using a formalism based on attractor neural networks, we discuss different dynamical processes affecting familiarity discrimination. First, we compare two different familiarity discriminators, the previously proposed energy (FamE) and the temporal derivative of the energy (FamS). This second measure relies on differences in the dynamics of the network when novel or old stimuli are presented. Contrarily to FamE, FamS depends on details of the dynamics of the network. As a result, and counterintuitively, famS is enhanced by random fluctuations in the neural activity. Finally, we present some preliminary results showing how familiarity discrimination is affected by activity dependent mechanisms at synaptic level, such as short-term depression and facilitation. These results allow formulating new models regarding optimal dynamics and familiarity discrimination.01/2007; DOI:10.1063/1.2709599

I'm glad we had the chance to stay here, everything was great, the staff was very friendly and rooms were very clean.
Good pit stop
This hotel was very roomy, comfortable and clean. I was pleasantly suprised for the price
As expected
The actual hotel wasn't bad. I booked a room with 2 beds and It was what one might expect, clean comfortable though a bit cramped with the small bathroom and living space. The issue I had was with my late check in. I called ahead to let the hotel
know I would not be arriving until around 11 PM to which they said wasn't an issue, they staffed a check in window 24/7. However, when I arrived after there was no one there. I called a couple times, no answer. I.knocked the main entrance door and windows and rang the door bell and still nothing. Mind you this was at around 1130 PM after calling ahead and being on the road for 14 hours with my 15 and 6 year old. Finally after about 20 minutes I see a worker in the back of breakfast lounge area and I manage to get his attention. He was in fact the staff that checks guests in. The whole affair was very unprofessional and left me with a bad impression on my experience at that hotel.
Area 51 museum was great. My kids loved it.
Weekend Getaway
I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was just the standard continental breakfast which was not really anything special. The rooms were clean and already had the air conditioning on which was nice
because it was 100 degrees when we checked in. Close to the downtown of Roswell and lots of restaurants in walking distance.
Comfortable and clean
Staff was welcoming and checkin was fast. Got a great room right by the lobby on the first floor. Room was small, but immaculate, had minifridge and microwave, new bathroom fixtures, great shower/waterpressure. Breakfast was best buffet I have had
at a free breakfast: everything hot, fresh, and tasty. Biscuits and gravy (heavenly), cheese omelets, fruit, yummy fried potatoes, etc. Breakfast area was kept spotless and refilled. Even though we stayed during the "Alien fest" , even warned by desk staff that it could be a little crazy that night, the only sounds were those of fireworks closeby and not a problem. Very good experience. Great place to stay after a day at Carlsbad cavern state park.
Just An Overnight While Driving Through
Found this hotel while searching on my phone. It is right on Main Street in Roswell, NM. There are several places to eat and drink within short walking distances to the hotel. I had booked a King bed and it was very soft. Also, this is a two story
hotel with no elevators, only stairs. The upper walkway was also kind of dark and not very well lit.
I don't know if this is a recent trend in hotels but they only give you two sets of towels, no extra bath towels are available in the room. I have long hair and wash it every night. If you're traveling alone it is okay, however if you're traveling with someone else you have to call down and request the extra towels. Sometimes in these smaller hotels they only have one person staffing the office and if you check in late at night they aren't able to bring the towels to your room. You have to take a walk down to the front desk to pick them up. Just a minor annoyance but thought it was worth mentioning.
Overall the staff were extremely friendly and there were no issues checking in or out of the hotel. Comfy enough for an overnight stay.

Insurance regulators outside of DIFC aren't doing enough, says Gertsch, adding that overcapacity in the industry won't be resolved until the existence of companies come under threat.
July 17, 2011 11:57 by kippreport
Q: There have been concerns of overcapacity in the industry. What's your take on it?
There is over capacity in this market. Normally this would not be an issue but in the region the only thing that counts is growth and not necessarily profit.
Pricing is deteriorating while underlying deductibles are reducing and loss ratios are going up. If pricing is going down and loss ratios are going up we will get to a point where it is not economical any more. This is what a lot of people don't actually realise right now. The insurance companies can still do this because the reinsurance companies allow it but if you look at the actual margin that a reinsurer has on any treaty in this region particularly in the UAE, it is so tiny that if you add the management expenses that a reinsurance company has on top of that its not profitable anymore. Insurers and reinsurers need to work together because losses will come in the future.
Q: So, how can this be rectified?
Unfortunately, I think that nothing will change until some companies are badly hurt. Currently some companies are releasing reserves to pay dividends. This can't go on as the shareholders will at some point ask what is happening to the capital that they are investing. Our industry will only change when there is a major crisis. We are in a crisis but it's not life threatening right now. In the next 12 to 24 months, we will see reinsurers pulling out because the margin is not there anymore and then it will be really difficult for local insurance companies to continue focusing on growth targets.
Q: What makes Gulf Re different from the other reinsurers?
The difference between us and other companies is that we are not working anywhere else in the world. Gulf Re only focuses on the six GGC states, half of our shareholders are the six GCC states. We focus on this region so for us continuity is very, very important. We are growing slower than the market and we do this deliberately because we see the environment that we are in we don't think it's the right time to grow aggressively. The only reason we can do this is because our shareholders are completely on board, they are not looking for a massive growth right now. It's also the way we have staffed the company, we have brought specialists in from large international reinsurance companies from all over the world. They have the international mind set which is also why we are still declining the vast majority of the business as we believe it will save us a lot of money in the long run.
Q: There have been reports that growth is set to increase in the next 12 to 24 months. How is this possible?
What everyone is trying is to do is write more business or bigger lines in order to keep the volume up. But if prices are coming down by 10 – 15 per cent and you want to keep the volume you have to write a lot more business. If you take medical out of the equation, the market is growing by under 10 per cent per year.
