In addition, SAFYRAL contains drospirenone, a different kind of hormone that for some may increase potassium too much. Women should consult with their healthcare provider if they are on daily long-term treatment for a chronic condition with medications that may also increase potassium, as they should have a blood test to check their potassium level during the first month of taking SAFYRAL.
About the Clinical Development Program for SAFYRAL
The FDA approval of SAFYRAL to raise folate levels in women who choose an OC for contraception is based on two clinical trials. The first trial was a pivotal 24-week clinical trial involving 379 healthy women aged 18-40 years, which found that YAZ® (drospirenone 3 mg/ ethinyl estradiol 20 mcg) in combination with 451 mcg of Metafolin increased folate levels from baseline. This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel group study conducted in a U.S. population with folate fortified food evaluated the effect of YAZ in combination with 451 mcg of Metafolin on red blood cell (RBC) folate and plasma folate levels compared to YAZ alone during 24 weeks of treatment. At week 24, the mean changes from baseline were significantly (p<0.0001) higher for women who took YAZ in combination with 451 mcg of Metafolin, as compared to women who took YAZ alone, for RBC folate (420 +/- 347 nmol/L vs. 34.3 +/- 171 nmol/L, respectively) and plasma folate (15.8 +/- 20.4 nmol/L vs. -2.2 +/- 14.6 nmol/L, respectively) levels.
In the U.S. folate study,

Brasserie Restaurant Restaurant Review: There are many dining options in wine country, let's face it. But say you find yourself at the Hyatt, a little spent after a long day of meetings or traversing backroads. Brasserie Restaurant is the kind of hotel venue you'd be happy to encounter. Amiable staff makes you feel at home, and the menu offers safe and welcoming choices with just enough flair. Unwind in an ample booth, fresh lilies on the table, Mission-style lamps overhead. The chef has leeway to leverage local growers, which the menu proudly names when applicable. Choose from generous starters like tempura prawns with mango-basil sauce; spinach tossed with apple wood bacon, balsamic onions and manchego; or just-seared ahi, fanned out, flecked with black and white sesames and topped with seaweed salad. Try Hawaiian Kobe and buttery potato "risotto" as a main. Standout desserts include a Valrhona chocolate croissant bread pudding and Gravenstein apple cake, layers moistened with sparkling cider, the green peel as confetti.

Kelly L is up to no good and should be reported
They may live longer and they may not
I can believe that
It's all in the genes and how they fight off the processed junk food we put in our bodies....
Vegetarians don't live longer in my family. Only had one and she died an early death, around the age of 30, all other family members that are omnivores lives well into their 80's-90's (unless there was a farming accident, or during the industrial age when the pollination was very high), but then again my family on both sides tend to avoid processed foods, GMO foods and still makes many things from scratch and still exercises (many still work on the farms).
While doing genealogy I have found an ancestor who lived to be 104 years old during the 1600's. He was an omnivore and his favorite meal was apple glazed ham with a side of baked potato. And another man who was recorded plowing his fields by hand in the 1800's with NO animal pulling the plow, as well as being able to lift it, who lived to be 98 years old, and he worked until he was 75. His favorite meal was recorded to be rosemary cooked lamb slathered in pig lard.
A reason why they may live longer now is because there are FEW vegetarian friendly processed junk food, so they have less junk and chemicals being put into their bodies. If everyone ate foods that where not junk food, they would live longer too. But the way things are going everyone is winding up with chemicals in their body as nothing seems to be safe from major Corps that want to poison us all.
Remember, no matter what your diet is, eat healthy (less junk food), exercise, and LISTEN TO YOUR BODY.
Eating more veggies and fruits and nuts is a good thing!

Marge pursues a new career in real estate sales while Homer is pursued by Snake. Marge starts working at Red Blazer Reality, a highly competitive company where she must sell a certain number of houses or be fired. Meanwhile, Homer buys Snake's old car from a Police Auction and Snake isn't too happy about it. Marge has trouble dealing with the fact that being an effective salesperson requires a lot of lying, and starts to wonder if she's cut out for selling houses. But when she manages to get the Flanders to buy an impossible-to-sell house where a murder occurred, she thinks she's getting the hang of it. Rather than be upset at the fact that they've moved into a crime scene, the Flanders are elated, since they're strangely fascinated by the details of the murder. All is fine, until Homer and Snake crash Snake's car through the Flanders' new house, destroying it. Marge is fired from Red Blazer Realty.

The Best Literary Sex Scenes Not Penned by a Great Male Novelist. Writing about sex in literature is a difficult task; there are so many ways authors can go wrong.
Nowadays, most writers spend too much time on the build up and then release the curtain during the show, choosing instead to segue to a point immediately after the act. Others spend an inordinate amount of energy coming up with penis euphemisms, and end up ruining a scene (think: late John Updike), or even a whole novel. Welcome to Google Lit Trips!

Windows 10 Home vs Windows 10 Pro comparison: Here are the extra features you get in the Pro version
Windows mail working but browser say no connection
Laptop running vista, connecting via wi-fi.
Firefox will for maybe 10 minutes then fail to connect. Connection appears to be fine - local and internet, but to get Firefox to work I have to disconnect & reconnect again.
Strange thing is that windows mail continues to work normally & emails keep coming.
Rarely use IE but that seems to suffer the same problem. Any ideas folks?
Try switching the router off and on again.
First of all switched router off for a minute, then back on. Laptop would not connect, but desktop pc (wired to modem) was connected and accessing internet.
Restarted laptop & connected to internet. Checked download speed and got:- laptop 5418 download 790 upload desktop 6519 download 804 upload
Emails coming in fine, but then browser stopped - connection was reset message. email still working though. Access showing as local & internet.
Had to right click on the icon to disconnect, then right click & connect to wiress network again. Laptop browser then works again with similar speeds.
Indications are that there is a problem with the wireless connection. But not sure whether it is at laptop or router end. It is odd not to lose email if the internet is not working. How long has this problem been happening? It may be worthwhile doing a system restore to just before the problem.
In your Firewall check that you have given Firefox permission to connect to the internet. It sometimes happens after programs (firefox in your case) have checked for updates if you haven't got them listed as ok in your Firewall list.
lotvic - good idea but also happens with IE? (see first post).
Yes, I'm confused that email works but browser keeps losing connection.
It's my wife's laptop, which I've only recently started using. Because of this, it has had very little installed in the way of software. It has Norton Internet Security, as does my laptop, and only being used for a bit of browsing & internet banking - plus playing a few games, there has been no need to keep backing it up.
She always complained she couldn't access her bank account, and my answer was always disconnect & connect again, which would get it working long enough for her to do what she wanted. Now I'm using it, the problem is rather annoying, and I can't really go back to a point to where it was working properly
As a little add on to this, I have an old xp laptop, which when connected via wi-fi stays connected indefinitely when using the browser, so the signal from the router isn't a problem.
have a look in device manager and see it there is any difference (yellow triange!) between when it works and when it has disconnected.
Have you tried using a cable instead of wireless connection?
Also check Java and Flash are up to date, there was another thread that had similar problem and I found this http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-Internet-Security-Norton/NIS-2012-blocks-Java-applications-from-accessing-the-internet/td-p/535630
Did a dearch for "check wlan" and Orange web site had a page how to check it.
Followed instructions and it was "started" and startup "automatic".
I'm doing this typing on desktop. Email was downloading on the problem laptop but browser not working.
Just tried IE. That didn't work either, message came up "Diagnose connection problem" so clicked on link and got message "Windows did not find any problems with this computer's network connection"
Just disconnected from network & connected again, so started working again - but it won't last long!! Just got 5986 & 795 on speedtest.
This thread is now locked and can not be replied to.

Getting an Edge From IT
Companies need to think strategically about their tech investments
Information technology plays a huge role in business today—but that doesn't mean it's always well-understood or well-managed by most executives. Peter Weill is out to change that.
The Journal Report
See the complete Business Insight report.
Dr. Weill is chairman of the MIT Sloan School of Management's Center for Information Systems Research, where he studies how companies can increase the effectiveness of their IT investments. A co-author of "IT Savvy: What Top Executives Must Know to Go From Pain to Gain," Dr. Weill recently spoke with MIT Sloan Management Review senior editor Martha E. Mangelsdorf for Business Insight. Here are edited excerpts from that interview.
Standardize and Innovate
BUSINESS INSIGHT: Your newest book is about IT-savvy companies. How do you define IT savvy?
DR. WEILL: IT-savvy companies make information technology a strategic asset. The opposite of a strategic asset, of course, is a strategic liability. And there are many companies who feel their IT is a strategic liability. In those companies, the IT landscape is siloed, expensive and slow to change, and managers can't get the data they want.
IT-savvy companies are just the opposite. They use their technology not only to reduce costs today by standardizing and digitizing their core processes, but the information they summarize from that gives them ideas about where to innovate in the future. A third element is that IT-savvy companies use their digital platform to collaborate with other companies in their ecosystem of customers and suppliers.
So, IT-savvy companies are not just about savvy IT departments. It's about the whole company thinking digitally.
BUSINESS INSIGHT: You've done some research that suggests IT-savvy companies are more profitable than others. Tell me a bit about that.
DR. WEILL: The IT-savvy companies are 21% more profitable than non-IT-savvy companies. And the profitability shows up in two ways. One is that IT-savvy companies have identified the best way to run their core day-to-day processes. Think about UPS or Southwest Airlines or Amazon: They run those core processes flawlessly, 24 hours a day.
The second thing is that IT-savvy companies are faster to market with new products and services that are add-ons, because their innovations are so much easier to integrate than in a company with siloed technology architecture, where you have to glue together everything and test it and make sure that it all works. We call that the agility paradox—the companies that have more standardized and digitized business processes are faster to market and get more revenue from new products.
Those are the two sources of their greater profitability: lower costs for running existing business processes, and faster innovation.
BUSINESS INSIGHT: You write about the importance of choosing your digital platform and thinking about your operating model in doing so. Why is that so important?
DR. WEILL: When we talk about an operating model, we're talking about the degree to which a company integrates and standardizes its core processes. Integration, which involves providing access to data across the company, and standardization, which involves reducing variation in the company's business processes, are the two things IT does better than anything else.
One of the most important decisions senior executives make is which business processes should be shared across the business and which shouldn't. For example, UPS has decided it will have one process for picking up a package across the world. Whereas Procter & Gamble has decided it will leave the local marketing units to figure out how they will go to market, but the company will have shared standardized services for HR, finance and IT.
Those are two very different operating models—and both can work. Making the decision about what kind of operating model you want, and having the discipline to stick to it and the governance to enforce it, is what makes an IT-savvy company.
Connecting Projects
BUSINESS INSIGHT: And do most companies actually make their IT decisions using that kind of framework?
DR. WEILL: It turns out the top-performing companies, the IT-savvy companies, do this instinctively. They don't call it an operating model, but their executives make the decision about which business processes will be standardized and which ones will be integrated throughout the business.
With that level of guidance, the IT unit really knows how to architect a company. But if that kind of executive guidance isn't given, the IT unit ends up in a much more project-oriented, order-taking role. The IT unit is just receiving a whole bunch of relatively uncoordinated projects that don't add up to anything.
The real secret to IT-savvy companies is that each project links together—like Lego blocks—to create a reusable platform. IT-savvy companies think reuse first. When they have a new idea, the first question they ask is: Can we use existing data, applications and infrastructure to get that idea to market fast? When we look at the impact of reusing processes and applications, we see measurable benefits in the top and bottom lines.

Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF)
Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF) is a viral haemorrhagic fever of the Nairovirus group. Although primarily a zoonosis, sporadic cases and outbreaks of CCHF affecting humans do occur. The disease is endemic in many countries in Africa, Europe and Asia.
The geographical distribution of the virus, like that of its tick vector, is widespread. Evidence of CCHF virus has been found in Africa, Asia, the Middle East and Eastern Europe. Healthcare workers in endemic areas should be aware of the illness and the correct infection control procedures to protect themselves and their patients from the risk of nosocomial (hospital-acquired) infection.
For more information please check the websites of WHO Regional Office for Europe and ECDC – European Center for Disease Prevention and Control.

Paid Maternity Leave for All? Yes, Please!
They always say not to talk about sex, politics or religion. I've already broken the sex rule talking about pregnancy sex on the blog, now I'm about to break the second one! While America is a world leader in a lot of things, maternity leave is not one of them. In fact, the US is the only industrialized nation that does not provide paid maternity leave (many other countries even include paternity leave too, so the proud papa can spend time with his new little one as well). How is it that in a country that is supposed to be all about family values, we put so little money where our mouth is?
Now Senator Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, and Representative Rosa DeLauro of Connecticut, hope to change that. They have introduced the Family and Medical Insurance Leave Act, a bill that proposes an insurance plan ran by the Social Security Administration that would provide paid family and sick leave to every employee (whether you work for a private or public company, are full or part time, or self-employed). The idea is that the employer and employee each pay two-tenths of 1 percent of wages (about $1.50 per week for the typical worker), which would fund payments of 66 percent of monthly wages, up to a capped amount for employees on leave, as well as the administrative costs of the program. According to the New York Times, the suggested benefits would range from a $580 monthly minimum up to a max of $4k per month, for a max of 12 weeks within a one-year period.
While I am extremely hopeful that this bill will pass, and I think it should be a no-brainer for a country that says it cares about families and our next generation, I'm also skeptical. You see how difficult it was to pass the Affordable Care Act, and how unpopular it seems to be. What will the fate of this bill be? In my eyes, family leave is clearly a win-win for everyone—it brings a stronger bond to families, and with women (and men) being able to take off time to raise children without worrying about losing their jobs or their promotion capabilities, they will be more dedicated workers, and will have the income to put back into the economy, which in turn helps businesses. Research shows that companies that provide family-friendly policies have less turnover, higher shareholder return, and greater profitability. Other research shows a correlation between short maternity leaves and reduced breastfeeding rates, increased risk of postpartum depression, and higher infant mortality rates. There is also some evidence to suggest that longer paid maternity leaves improve employee retention. When you're a new mom worried about your baby, not getting anywhere near enough sleep, and struggling with adjusting to parenthood, your job performance suffers. By giving women the time they need after having a baby, you're ensuring that when a new mother does return to work, she's able to give her full attention to her job, which benefits her employer. Are you listening, Washington?
It goes without saying that so many women would like to take off time for maternity leave, but can't afford to, or would like to be able to take off more than they're able to. This act could potentially change that—allowing every woman who wants to stay home for three months with her child, the ability to do that (or at least more of a chance to since they'll have 66 percent of their paycheck in hand).
Right now women hold 101 seats—the highest ever—out of the 535 voting members of Congress and the House of Representatives. Only time will tell if men will back the act. But before voting, I hope members of the Congress and House—both Democrats and Republicans—take a good look at who is suffering from not having paid maternity leave in place. The answer is simple: All of us.

SAN ANTONIO -- With a few minor alterations to the plot, history is repeating itself here this weekend.
Virginia Commonwealth is the modern version of George Mason, 2006: a No. 11 seed from the Colonial Athletic Association that barely squeezed into the NCAA tournament, amid protest from the punditry. Now, after a startling run of upsets, the Rams face a seemingly unconquerable No. 1 seed for the right to go to the Final Four.
Kansas is the modern version of itself, 2008: a No. 1 seed blessed with a broken bracket and three mismatches on its way to a regional final date with a seemingly overmatched Cinderella.
Mason shocked the world in the '06 Elite Eight, beating Connecticut in double overtime to advance to the Final Four. It was the biggest underdog story in decades in college basketball.
Kansas survived its '08 regional final against No. 10 seed Davidson, 59-57, advancing to the Final Four here in San Antonio and winning its first national title in 20 years.
Sunday, the plotline ends for one of the two and continues for the other. Because they both can't win. But they both can recognize the similarities and draw from them.
VCU knows that its mission is improbable, not impossible.
"I remember watching [Geoge Mason]," VCU point guard Joey Rodriguez said. "I remember the Connecticut game, too. It's cool they're from the same conference. I think it speaks volumes for the conference we have. ... Different team, different university. You can look at it for inspiration."
Kansas knows that its mission won't be easy, either. But its coach and senior class have at least been there and done that, as opposed to wondering what it's like to be there and do it. And they understand the pressure involved with a Final Four doorstep opportunity as a heavy favorite.
"As much as I said relax [in 2008], as much as I said enjoy the moment ... as much as I said we're in attack mode, it was a little different feel that game," Self said. "Especially when you're playing a team such as VCU -- Davidson, as you put it, kind of caught the imagination of America, and deservedly so. ... But our guys, if you told me before the game [against Davidson] we would have won by two, everyone would have sold out for that."
I think we have made a name for ourselves to this point -- but it can always be a bigger name if we beat Kansas.
"-- VCU forward Jamie Skeen
It'll be the same this time around. But once again, the expectation is that Kansas is the far superior team.
Other than ending up in this place against each other as two of the final six teams standing, there hasn't been much in common between the two this season. Kansas has been a prominent national title contender all along, its NCAA fate assured well before the brackets were revealed. The Jayhawks not only were in the field, they were a surefire No. 1 seed.
The Rams, meanwhile, were 9-5 in early January after a loss to lowly Georgia State, and a national afterthought. They lost their final four conference games of the regular season and finished fourth in the Colonial Athletic Association.
That, coupled with their loss in the CAA final to Old Dominion, left just about everyone predicting an NCAA snub on Selection Sunday. Everyone but point guard and amateur bracketologist Rodriguez.
"I had us in as a 12-seed," Rodriguez said with a grin.
His teammates were so unconvinced that come 6 o'clock Eastern Time on March 13, they didn't even bother watching the selection show. The coaches didn't organize anything for the team, fearing the letdown of rejection, and the players went their separate ways.
"I was just getting back to my room from Five Guys," said Bradford Burgess.
"I was in my room watching Cartoon Network," said Ed Nixon.
"I was doing homework," said Brandon Rozzell.
"I was eating alone," said Jamie Skeen.
Only the team bracketologist had the faith to watch. When he saw VCU's name on the board, he began pounding on doors in his apartment complex and shouting the news.
At Great Wraps, Skeen's cell phone began blowing up. He didn't answer it.
"I had buffalo sauce on my hands," he explained. "I have an expensive phone and I didn't want to ruin it."
Even as he saw the calls coming in, Skeen couldn't figure out what all the fuss was about. A fifth-year senior who transferred from Wake Forest -- and still wears a Wake Forest T-shirt under his game jersey -- he was so depressed about playing his entire career without making the Big Dance that he didn't even let the thought enter his mind.
Finally, he wiped his hands and answered a call from his high school coach, who delivered the news. VCU was in.
Then, like classic party crashers, the Rams took over the joint. After four victories against teams from the big leagues -- Pac-10, Big East, Big Ten and ACC -- they now get their shot at the champions of the Big 12.
"Anytime a mid-major school goes against a big-time school, automatically their eyes get big," Skeen said. "We want to get a name for ourselves. I think we have made a name for ourselves to this point -- but it can always be a bigger name if we beat Kansas."
If VCU becomes just the third double-digit seed to make the Final Four, it will be one of the magic names of March. A Masonesque, if you will.
But there is a competing storyline, and a competing powerhouse.
Kansas has its own history it is trying to repeat.

Headlines December 18, 2003 Full Show | First Story >
9/11 Chair: Attacks Were Preventable
The head of the government's independent commission investigating the Sept. 11 attacks said for the first time yesterday that 9/11 could have been and should have been prevented. In an interview with CBS News, the former New Jersey Republican governor Thomas Kean said "As you read the report, you're going to have a pretty clear idea what wasn't done and what should have been done. This was not something that had to happen." While not identifying any officials by name Kean laid the blame on the Bush administration. Kean said "There are people that, if I was doing the job, would certainly not be in the position they were in at that time because they failed. They simply failed." Kean was appointed to head the commission by President Bush.
Iraqi Leader: Hussein Will Be Tried in Iraq
The head of Iraq's Governing Council, Abdul Aziz al-Hakim, has said that the captured Saddam Hussein will stand trial in Iraq. Hakim did not say whether Hussein would face the death penalty. Responding to criticism that the Iraqi courts are not prepared for such a case, Hakim said international monitors could observe the trial and that global legal standards will be taken into account. Hakim also said that Iran deserved reparations for Iraq's invasion of Iran that led to a brutal eight-year war.
Chief WMD Hunter in Iraq, David Kay, to Quit
David Kay the top US official overseeing the hunt for weapons of mass destruction is quitting the project within the next two months well before the Iraq Survey Group issues its final report. This according to the Washington Post. To date no weapons of mass destruction have been found in Iraq. The Post said Kay is stepping down for personal and family reasons. Meanwhile during an interview with ABC on Tuesday, President Bush was asked whether he still believes that Saddam had actual "weapons of mass destruction as opposed to the possibility that he could move to acquire those weapons." Bush responded "So what's the difference. The possibility that he could acquire weapons. If he were to acquire weapons, he would be the danger."
White House Rewrites History By Scrubbing Website
The Washington Post is reporting that the Bush administration has attempted to rewrite history by removing a transcript of an interview with the head of the US Agency for International Development from earlier this year during which he said that the reconstruction would cost U.S. taxpayers only $1.7 billion. The estimate by Andrew Natsios turns out to be off by several tens of billions of dollars. Now his comments have been purged from government websites. After the scrubbing of the transcript was noticed, USAID claimed that the page was taken down not because of political reasons but because there was a cost for keeping up a transcript from ABC's Nightline. However ABC said that was not true.
U.S. Set to Launch Arab Satellite TV Channel
The New York Times is reporting that a new U.S.-government run Arabic satellite tv station could be broadcasting into the Middle East as early as January. The government is hoping the new station, called Al Hurra which means the Free One, will serve as a counter to Al Jazeera. The station marks the largest government sponsored international media project since the U.S. launched Voice of America in 1942. The credibility of the station is already coming under criticism from within the Arab world. In an interview with the New York Times, the station's news director [Mouafac Harb] attempted to show that the station would be more objective and balanced than Al Jazeera. He said if the station were to report on an Israeli raid on Palestinians that his station, unlike Al Jazeera, would see no need to note that the Israelis were flying U.S.-made aircraft. Harb asked "Why say that? You can feel which way they are leading you." The U.S. government plans to spend $62 million on the station during its first year.
Rendon Group Bids To Run Iraq TV & Network
Meanwhile in Iraq, the Coalition Provisional Authority is planning to soon award a nearly $100 million contract to rebuild Iraq's national TV, radio and newspaper infrastructure. According to O'Dwyers PR, among the companies bidding on the project is a nine-business consortium that includes the secretive PR company the Rendon Group which oversaw the formation of the Iraqi National Congress. The INC led by Ahmed Chalabi became the main Iraqi opposition group over the past decade and it has been widely accused of giving the U.S. bad intelligence about Iraq in the lead up to the invasion.
U.S. Signs Free Trade Pact w/ Central American Nations
In Washington, U.S. trade officials inked a new free trade deal with four Central American nations but failed to agree to terms with Costa Rica which has the largest economy in the region. Costa Rica rejected the agreement because the U.S. was demanding it open up its telecommunications and insurance sectors to foreign investors.
Mario Cuomo Files $15M Libel Suit Against Greg Palast
Former New York governor Mario Cuomo has filed a $15 million libel suit against BBC reporter and best-selling author Greg Palast. In his book The Best Democracy Money Can Buy, Palast charges Cuomo improperly influenced a federal judge to throw out a multi-billion verdict against the Long Island Lighting Company.
Ex-Ill. Gov. Ryan Indicted on Corruption
In Illinois, former Gov. George Ryan, was indicted Wednesday on charges of racketeering, mail and tax fraud, and lying to law enforcement officials. Prosecutors said Ryan took cash, gifts, vacations and other favors from political supporters and in return helped give them state contracts and jobs. Ryan is best known for becoming a fierce critic of the death penalty. Before leaving office he cleared out Illinois's death row by pardoning four condemned prisoners and commuting the death sentences of 167 others.
Hinckley Granted Unsupervised Visits
John Hinckley, the man who tried to assassinate President Ronald Reagan in 1982, has been granted permission to take unsupervised trips away from the psychiatric facility where he has been held for the past 20 years. Hinckley was found not guilty by reason of insanity and has now been awarded permission to take six daytime visits and two overnight visits with his parents.
