ebf baby not pooping daily?
Comments (10)
Yep, that's normal. Many EBF babies poop once a week, and others poop several times a day.
In the book I'm reading "The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding" it says thats normal and its not constipation as long as it isnt a hard consistency.
That book is written by La Leche League so I trust is as a good source.
just remember this: just because your lo's dr. thinks you should supplement doesn't mean you have to. Get a second opinion, advocate for yourself.
At 6 mos old my little guy started thinning out - DH and DH's family are lean and tall - my Doc suggested supplementing and I declined saying my son looks and acts healthy - his Dad's side of the family are long and lean - he doesn't need formula he has enough wet/dirty diapers and we're starting solids soon - but thanks for the advice.
She respected that!
Check out my etsy shop:
My EBF baby poops once or twice daily and he's in the 97th percentile for weight and the 99th percentile for height. I was worried that he wasn't pooping as often anymore - he used to dirty four or five diapers a day, and then it thinned out to once every three days. The doctor says it's fine, and he's clearly growing, so I'm not so worried about it anymore, and his system is still working out what's 'normal' for him.

If your doctor is alarmed, you should be alarmed. BM is made for your baby and s/he should be using it efficiently. My pediatrician said that he would only be concerned if LO went 10 days without a bowel movement or was acting like he was bothered.
That is awesome to know- quite a relief actually. Thank you ladies. We are switching pediatricians after the physician's assistant at our old one ignored our questions, barely looked at my son, repeated his chart wrong, and proceeded to prescribe him vitamins that specifically say "do NOT give to an infant under 6 months" on them... I was EBFing and they scared me half to death about his weight gain and started talking about supplementing. Overworked, incompetent, disintrested... I want to get off on the right foot with this new pediatrician and make sure I understand his health before going in. Thank you!!

7 Predictions For 2015 From Mark Richards
As we quickly approach 2015, I thought I'd gaze into my crystal ball and provide you with 7 predictions for the new year that I'm expecting to see. Last year my predictions were kinda off as I only awarded myself a 35% accuracy rating. I hope to hear from you in December regarding the ones I got wrong. What do you think will happen this year?

The U-B's Editorial "Concerns about state-mandated math test overblown" seemed glib and uncaring to this reader.
The figures the U-B presented were that 71,671 seniors passed the new math requirement, 4,100 failed the test and 2,700 didn't take the test — for an overall total of 78,471 students. That means that 8.7 percent of the "pool" did not graduate after putting in 13 years, counting kindergarten, in the public school system.
It's hard to see how the U-B can take something close to a "that's just tough" attitude.
Everyone in Walla Walla, at Wa-Hi and Lincoln High, passed, which is praiseworthy. Lincoln High School's record is even more impressive when you consider that 72 percent (2009 figure) of the students are low income and the school population's average ACE score (Adverse Childhood Experiences) is at a dangerously high level.
Praise is due for Wa-Hi's administration and teachers and for Principal Jim Sporleder and the dedicated teachers at Lincoln for their 100 passing record. This obviously wasn't the case everywhere, however.
Why did the state need yet another test? We seem to be doing well enough. According to the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction, "Washington students' combined average score on the SAT (1545) is the highest in the nation — tied with Vermont — among states in which at least 45 percent of the eligible students took the test." Illinois has the highest average nationally, but only 5 percent of students took the SAT in 2010 while 57 percent of Washington students took the test.
Why not give the test early in the students' junior year and give students most of their junior year and all of their entire senior year to pass? Why doesn't the legislature demand and OSPI administrate a system that requires each and every school district to give every student the best possible opportunity to pass the test and graduate. This would include classes during and after school.
The truth is that when asked if this test is entirely fair, the Legislature and the OSPI posture and accuse the questioner of being in favor of "lowering standards." As long as you are four square for higher (if not universally fair) standards, your legislative and bureaucratic keisters are well guarded.
I am a retired public school teacher and I have tutored a number of adults in GED math. My best guess is that many of the Legislators would fail the test themselves.

Do fans want the prime timeline back?

Re: Do fans want the prime timeline back?
Some of the mudslinging towards newer fans that came in through the JJ movies really irks me. Star Trek is not the pinnacle of intelligent sci-fi. There are so many superior examples of that, and it is embarrassing to hold Trek up high at a level that it is not meant to be at.
What Trek is is entertainment: adventures with phasers, starships, alien planets and all, and the characters that go through those adventures together.
So as to which universe Future Trek should be set in, I don't mind either way, but I do think the alternate reality is the way to go. It's already been set up and a series set in the same universe has the potential to go anywhere in terms of world-building.
At this point I think I'll be happy with whatever new Trek we get.

Never calls back
by Poolowner , 08/13/2013
when you call for emergency service you are transferred to a voicemail. They do not return your call for days. When your dealing with pool issues 2-3 days can cause significant issues with your pool. Very unprofessional!
The Best Pool Company I've Ever Had
by Marge , 08/14/2012
I have had several other pool companies, both small and large, and I have to tell you for consistent reliable pool service Poolman is the very best I have ever had. During the summer months I typically have to leave a voice message if I call them but I always get a return call. The management staff in this company truly care about their customers, a refreshing change. I would highly recommend this company to everyone.

Poolman has serviced my pool was 4 years. I have always been happy so when I needed my Deck again I called them. Wow what a great job they did.
Responsive, Dependable Pool Service & Fantastic Upgrade/Repair Work by
by Gail , 04/20/2011
Ten years ago I managed the chemicals in my pool myself and it turned out to be a disaster, quite expense to undo my mistakes as an amateur. I went through several companies and finally found Pool man and I have to tell you they are the best e.g. very knowledgeable, dependable, and responsive when you phone them. My deck was cracking by the pool, I initially just wanted it repaired so I called Pool man. They came out and looked at it, gave me options and we choose to upgrade around the pool with a design, clean the calcium off and clean the pebble tec. WOW - the pool is filling up with water and it looks so inviting and wonderful! Can"t thank Pool man enough for their ideas and having such skilled workers to do the job because my pool just looks fantastic and I LOVE IT! Can't wait to get it warmed up for the summer.
You can't find a better pool company in the state.
by Ron , 04/20/2011
We have been using Poolman for the last nine years. Before that we tried numerous other companies. The comments above must have been those we used before Poolman. This is one of the best companies in Arizona and beyond for all around pool service you can find. They are professional and experts at what they do and always put the customer first.If you want the job done right all the time, Poolman is the only way to go.
Great Service
by derfman , 03/31/2011
These guys are great, they always return my calls and answer any questions I have. My route tech is great and my pool has never looked so good. I love the free salt system they put on my pool.
by JustLKC , 02/06/2010
Submitted request to this company to replace waterline tile. They came out and bid on tile and suggested an up sell. Within the bid, they added $400+ tax on a $2500 bid for waterline tile and upsell items. After refusing the upsell items, asking about specifics of the work to be performed, reading the contract carefully, and handing them my check, two days later they returned it to me via mail stating "After consulting our office, we are not able to satisfy your needs".Apparently, underbid and couldn't do the job for what they quoted hoping on the up sell and extra tax to offset the original bid costs.Sales guy, Bill was very arrogant and argumentative.

Great Pool Service
by sauerkraut , 07/01/2009
I have a large pool, and the service is awesome with Poolman company. When there is a change in service people we don't usually have a problem. I love them my pool is always sparkling clean, and the service people are great guys. I highly recommend them to anyone, I always recommend them to people I know.
Horrible Horrid Company
by loveyourkirby , 05/14/2009
Our pool is always green because this company never does their job right.They never show up when they are supposed to show up, this week they showed up On Monday when they were supposed to be here on Thursday so my husband told the manager how inconveinant it was because we were just leaving. So the manager who serviced our pool calls our landlord and tells her that our dogs ate her drip lines. This guy maliciously called our landlord because my husband gave him a piece of his mind. I called this guys manager and he has the nerve to say that sometimes the lanlords expect them to tell them whats going on, on the property even though it has NOTHING to do with the pool. Unless you want A SPY, A GREEN POOL, A DIFFERANT POOL GUY EVERY WEEK BANGING ON THE DOOR EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE THE CODE TO MY GATE, SHOWING UP WHENEVER THEY DEEM FIT FOR THEMSELVES I DO NOT SUGGEST POOLMAN

Love this shampoo--another MUA recommendation :) I got my husband to use it once a week to deep clean his scalp and he loves it. Doesn't strip my red hair and gets the gunk out.

Smells amazing, but is a horrible clarifying shampoo! I usually use Suave clarifying shampoo and my hair feels so clean and has so much body after I use it. I decided to give this one a try along with the conditioner since it smells so good. My hair after washing is shiny, but is also limp and extremely difficult to style. I should have stuck with my suave clarifying shampoo- I will not repurchase this again.

I thought I'd end up not liking this product but I did. It was on sale for $.69 for the shampoo and conditioner. I was at my local neighbor hood store. I thought this product must be terrible to be this cheap. I decided to smell the product to my surprise it smelt great. I decided to get the set shampoo and conditioner. I washed my hair with the products. I used the shampoo on my scalp and conditioner on my ends and I'm a weekly washer. To my surprise my hair came out clean, smelt great, and it has become my favorite shampoo set.

This product is AMAZING. Until recently, my hair had been super dry and damaged...I loaded as many styling products and conditioners onto it as I could. Unfortunately, it began to develop a gross, product-y texture-Now what? This product not only got rid of ALL the gunkyness in my hair, it also left it soft and shiny...I have naturally wavy hair, and I was left with no frizz.

I never thought that I had an issue with build-up as I always assumed your hair would look greasy if you needed a clarifying product ..... my hair was the opposite in that it started to look, dry, frizzy and I had a few sticky pieces. I tried Redken's Hair Cleansing Cream which made my hair worse, but then decided to try VO5's clarifying shampoo and conditioner and could not believe the difference ..... Once a month, I use the shampoo, and conditioner followed by Enjoy's Hair Mask plus I do an apple cider vinegar rinse and my hair looks great ..... it has shine and looks healthy. If you hair is starting to look dry and frizzy, it can be that you need a clarifying product and I highly recommend VO5's clarifying shampoo and conditioner (they are cheap and really work.)

I have to say, I have tried many shampoos from the most expensive to the cheapest. As far as clarifying shampoos goes this one is the best and it's also the cheapest. I have very thick, long hair. I use lots of oils, deep conditioners, treatments, dry shampoos and hair sprays. All of that results in buildup in my hair but this stuff gets rid of EVERYTHING. So thankful for this!
-smells delicious, it's a sweet kiwi smell. so good!
-it has lots of vitamins in it! its' got vitamin E,C,B5 and B3. so if you like to spoil your hair with some nutrients this has it!
-gets every single trace of product buildup out of my hair with ONE wash. my hair feels clean and refreshed.
-even though youre getting a deep clean from this it doesn't suck all the life out of your hair. some clarifying shampoos just take out everything and make your hair feel dehydrated and dry. this doesn't do that. my hair felt soft and healthy and free off any gross residue.
-any drugstore or supermarket will have this. i got mine at walgreens but ive seen it at walmart, target, cvs, publix, rite aid. you're bound to find it somewhere.
-i got mine for 97 cents! I got a little discount with my walgreens card (originally it was like 1.25) best 97 cents i have ever spent.

If you want an amazing clarifying shampoo to use every once in a while to remove buildup without ridiculously stripping your hair of moisture or color and that doesn't stink and does it all for practically free...this one's a winner! Just make sure you use a conditioner along with it and the results are amazing! Especially for the mere .74¢ that i paid for it at walmart.
If i could put a -1 on value I would because you just can't beat the price, this baby works!

Okay, so my hair was coated and plastered and gummed with nasty residue from an old bottle of Tresemme conditioner, which was full of dimethicone. Basically my hair felt like straw, and it crunched. I knew no conditioner was going to make it past that crap, so I needed to clarify, but I was afraid a clarifying shampoo would be too harsh.
I looked for the Suave clarifying at Walmart, but they were out, so I picked up the Kiwi Lime Squeeze. I shouldn't have worried. It removed all the gunk and made my hair squeak like crazy. After washing, I conditioned and added a little olive oil, and put on a plastic cap and blasted my head with the dryer. Three hours later, soft, silky hair-----and if you knew how wiry and curly and coarse my hair is, you'd know that is SAYING something.
If you need to clarify, try this stuff. Just condition well afterward.

Like everyone says, this is an awesome clarifying shampoo that doesn't strip my color and makes my hair soft, bouncy and shiny. I pay a buck for it at my grocery store. It smells good and is a fresh, green fruity smell. I buy this all the time. I told my hairdresser about it and she now swears by it.

Ridiculously cheap and works to remove all the product build-up and gunk from my hair and scalp without being too stripping. I ran out my HG Redken hair cleansing cream and went looking for an affordable option until I can get a new bottle. I bought the Suave Clarifying shampoo and this. The smell of this shampoo is wonderful (btw, the matching conditioner is great for my co-washes and conditioner styling) and it leaves my hair shiny. You must follow with a conditioner or moisturizing treatment if you have dry hair. Those with fine or oily hair will like this for it's weightless cleansing abilities. I think I paid only 78 cents for this at Walmart which is a good steal since I pay less than 19 bucks for a bottle of RHCC. I would buy again.

We're still waiting on Verizon's official launch of the Blackberry Storm, but the anticipation is running high, especially since we just received a list of specs and talking points distributed to store reps about RIM's first touchscreen phone. As expected, the 9530 Storm will feature that controversial "click" touchscreen with built-in tactile feedback, GSM connectivity for global use in addition to EV-DO, visual voicemail, a 3.2 megapixel camera with video, and a full HTML browser. Sadly, there's no pricing information or specific release date, but we've got a feeling we'll get those soon -- stay tuned.

I will be glad to try again if there is an update.
Adding to my original review below. It's obvious that they are around and that they updated the app. I open the app. Tap the camera icon and the app closes. I've tried several times on my iPad. I deleted the app and downloaded it again and tried. Same thing. Not trying to be negative, but people need to know. If you got it working, cool, but it's not working for me.
Original review
It doesn't work and the screenshot thing is worthless being the picture they provide on the screen is too small with junk all around. These guys have gone away, so, if you purchased it, no way to get your money back. They are never going to update.
It works fine, why the negative reviews?
I don't understand what the negative reviews are all about. It saves to my camera roll perfectly fine. The ads are non-intrusive and the IAP's are reasonably priced. People can be extremely vicious when reviewing an app that they are not immediately satisfied with. There is an age old saying... If you don't have anything nice or positively constructive to say, ... Keep your trap shut... :)
Can't save the pic
Wanted an app that allows a longer exposure for astronomy pics with iPhone. This app won't save the pics. Just a blank white screen. You can take a screen shot and edit out all the ads and junk but field of view is really small. I thought all the bad reviews were mostly people not using app right. Nope. I've tried many different ways to get an image saved and no luck. Can't recommend this app at all.

envloop 004: Struboskop feat. Violetta Parisini – Dont Stop Robot EP
"Don´t Stop, Robot!" is a groovy, catchy Italo-Discohouse/Synthpop tune. The warm jazzy vocal bring this hypnotic tune up to epic heights, and soon you'll be singing "Don´t Stop, Robot! Just sayin´ yes and no and yes and…". Track two, "Roboskop" furthers the Italo feeling on your turntable, getting you "pazzo" over it, as does track three, "Roboterotic". Alberto Terzi´s Clubmix of "Don't Stop, Robot" is a superb re-interpretation of the original. It´s Italo Synthpop grooves will have you doing "the robot" in no time. Why we are so sure about it? Well, because it's worked like this on dancefloors from Shanghai to Vienna where the tune has already been tried…Read More

You generally can't cook raw shrimp in its frozen state (unless package directions instruct you otherwise), so you need to plan time for thawing.
- Refrigerator Method: Put wrapped frozen raw shrimp in the refrigerator to thaw, with a tray beneath it, to catch the drippings.
- Cold Water Method: Put wrapped frozen raw shrimp in a colander and run cold water over it until it thaws. Or, immerse the package in cold water and change the water approximately every 30 minutes until the shrimp is thawed.
Shrimp can be the centerpiece of a great meal, but frozen shrimp does take a bit of time and planning to prepare. So, if you love shrimp but want to serve a perfect dinner in a fraction of the time that it takes from scratch, check out the freezer section of your local supermarket or club/warehouse store for the prepared frozen shrimp entrées from Sea Cuisine.™ These restaurant-quality entrées are designed to make cooking frozen shrimp dishes quick and easy.

Ovarian cancer is a serious concern — especially for women older than 55. Whether you have ovarian cancer, or are a concerned friend, family member, or partner, you may have many questions. Here are the answers to questions people commonly ask about ovarian cancer.
Search now
Expand All
Women have two ovaries, one at the end of each fallopian tube. These almond-sized organs make eggs and sex hormones.
Ovarian cancer happens if abnormal cells in one or both of the ovaries grow uncontrollably. When this happens, the cancer cells can break through the surface of the ovary. It can then spread to other parts of the body.
About 22,000 women are diagnosed with ovarian cancer each year in the U.S. And 1 out of 72 women will get it in her lifetime.
Ovarian cancer causes more deaths than any other cancer of the female reproductive system. About 14,300 women die from it each year. Ovarian cancer ranks fifth in cancer deaths among women. So many women die from ovarian cancer because it is so difficult to detect at the earliest, most treatable stages.
Older women are most at risk for ovarian cancer — about half of the women who are diagnosed with ovarian cancer are 63 years or older.
Other risk factors include
Women who have never used birth control pills also have a higher risk for ovarian cancer.
Women in their 20s and 30s have a very low risk of ovarian cancer — even if they have a family history.
Although ovarian cancer is difficult to detect during routine GYN exams, it is recommended that women see their health care providers regularly. Women should also be aware of the possible symptoms of ovarian cancer. The earlier ovarian cancer is detected and treated, the better.
Ovarian Cancer and the Pill
Ovarian cancer can cause symptoms, but they can be hard to recognize.
Those symptoms include
These symptoms are also common among women who do not have cancer. You should seek medical attention when these symptoms are a change from what is normal for you and if you start having them every day for several weeks.
Regular physical and pelvic exams increase the chance of early detection, because health care providers can check for tenderness and swelling. Blood tests, abdominal ultrasounds, MRIs, biopsies, and other tests can be used to diagnose or rule out ovarian cancer.
The main treatments for ovarian cancer are surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. In some cases two or even all of these treatments will be recommended. How much surgery is required depends on if the cancer has spread. When ovarian cancer is found in its early stages, treatment is most effective.
Recent studies have shown that if the cancer has not spread beyond one ovary, women may still be able to get pregnant. But certain cancer treatments may decrease your ability to get pregnant. Talk with your health care provider about how any treatments you may have will affect your fertility.

Seth Dixon's curator insight, April 12, 2013 10:26 AM
Languages, just like cultures, are incredibly dynamic and have changed over time. Many people like to imagine an older version of their own culture of "how it used to be" or even "how it's always was." This is an illusion though, to pretend as though cultural change is something new. This fantasy allows for people to nostalgically yearn for what once was, even if that perceived pristine past was but a fleeting moment in history that was shaped by many other peoples, places and times.

Colony powers are still located within Africa. Just because Africa is technically independent doesn't mean that British Colonial power isn't still in place.
Felix Ramos Jr.'s curator insight, March 26, 11:08 AM
This article reminds us all of the growth-stunt that colonialism in Africa brought to the continent. It is not surprising to see that most African countries still depend heavily on their old colonial masters for survival. People who may casually follow African politics might think that colonialism started with the Berlin Conference and ended in 1990 or so, but one could argue that it hasn't ended due to the urgent dependency African countries still have on their old colonizers. Africa might be the most beautiful continent in the world but has the worst story of any in the world.

And if we did choose one language that would be the world standard what would it be? I would guess that the Western cultures would demand English. But why should English be the standard?

This Super Bowl commercial for trucks also doubles as a tribute to a rural America of yesteryear in general, and for farmers more specifically. While some may object to the overtly religious references of video, I feel that it reflects the cultural ethos of the Midwest, but more importantly, the market research shows that this religious appeal would resonate with the truck-purchasing demographic that this commercial is trying to influence. This commercial was cleverly critiqued in this video, "See God made a (Latino) Farmer" and in this irreverant parody.

This article is about the sacred gathering which occurs every 12 years at the merging point of the sacred Hindu rivers. Millions of people bathe in the waters daily during the Kumbh Mela. This sacred physical geography causes a massive human migration and creates a temporary mega-city. The temporary city is an excellent way to experiment with the planning of mega cities which, as evidenced by the problematic physical and human geography of Mexico City, are often not planned so much as just they just expand to meet the needs of the time. Urban planning should be particularly interesting for the people of India as the rapid population growth will cause significant expansion in its cities.
Joseph Thacker 's curator insight, April 13, 2014 1:43 PM
Every 12 years Hindus come together for a religious gathering, which results in the creation of a temporary mega city. The millions of people who attend this Hindu pilgrimage create this mega city for 55 days. It is impressive to see a temporary city supply housing, electricity, food and clean drinking water for millions of people.

Unit 2 Population and Migration
This diagram is an 18 slide powerpoint explaining the uses of, how to analyze, and what a population pyramid shows. This is also in a childish language and is very easy to understand making it an easy thing to use and visualize. It shows how pyramids show fertility rates migration and workforce.
This diagram powerpoint relates to unit 2 because it shows population pyramids with population and migration data on them referencing to the units core concepts. This delves deep into the understanding of the uses of population diagrams overall and their effects on society's parts, It is overall a major part of unit 2.

Unit 1 nature and perspectives of geography
This video is about how a world wide pandemic can occur and has occurred in history. I thought this was interesting because it spoke of many specific events like the black death and the 2010 cholera outbreak in haiti, gave detailed information, and was very informal.
This relates to unit 1 because it shows how pandemics and epidemics occur in a detailed way. It also shows how geography has related to epidemic outbreaks by showing disease spread maps and showing how doctors used this to solve the issue of it.

Are you a high school teacher looking for some funds for your classroom? The My Community, Our Earth: Global Connections and Exchange Program (PDF) is connecting high school students in the U.S. with their peers abroad (in Bolivia, Ghana, Nicaragua and the Philippines) through virtual online meetings. The Association of American Geographers is especially eager to have AP Human Geography teachers participate in this program. These meetings are arranged through online video conferences, online phone calls and chat sessions using Skype. The purpose of these meetings is to stimulate thinking and collaboration between high school students across international borders around sustainable development themes such as climate change, green economy, food security and hazards and vulnerability, while enriching cultural literacy. We are looking for formal and informal educators in the U.S., at the high school level, who would like to participate with us.

(Africa topic 1)
{{Note: Some topics and locations pertain to multiple geographic regions (i.e. northern Africa, the Middle East, and southwestern Asia, and topics in different regions may refer to the same country or location because of this.}}
I found it interesting to watch a video that comes from an implied anti-Israel standpoint, especially since the organization which made this video is called the Jewish Voice for Peace. Though there has always been disagreement as to who should occupy some of the most hallowed land in the world, it seems that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict stems more out of the UN repartitioning plan. Regardless of clashing religions and cultures, it does seem unfair that a minority of people control the majority of land and resources. This makes me wonder why exactly the UN made the Israeli state there: was is purely because of the Jewish religion associations?, or because no other country wanted to absorb the increasing number of refugees?, or because the UN wanted to gain a stronghold in the Middle East?, or perhaps a combination of all of the above?
Jason Schneider's curator insight, March 19, 8:40 PM
From 1946 to 2000, Palestine (Islamic individuals) have been at war with Israel (Jewish individuals) over land in Israel/Palestine. In 1946, Palestine took over most of Israel but throughout the decades up until 2000, Israel slowly won over almost every piece of Israel and now, Palestine barely has any land in Israel. From 1949 to 1967, Palestine took over a specific area of Israel known as the West Bank and another small part of Israel known as Gaza. There was a lot of war going on between Israel and Palestine because Israel discriminated against non-Jews. Palestinians became refugees but that didn't stop Israel from fighting to take over Palestinian land.
Kendra King's curator insight, April 30, 1:03 AM
The video was informative, but bias. I have a stronger understanding of how Israel is exploiting, how the borders were re-drawn, and how the make up of the original border mattered. However, the author gave me these facts in a very pro-Palestinian manner. The narrator sees the Palatines as refugees instead of the Jews, who as the narrator said, were "refugees living where people already lived." This similar identity clearly resonated with the narrator who almost 2 minutes of the video speaking about how the treatment of the new refugees was wrong. While a fair amount of the rest of the video advocated a solution to help Palestinian, hence the negative portrayals of the United States backed peace talks.
What was missing from this video was Israeli's story. The Jewish community had become a large force within Palestinian, but was not being aptly recognized. In fact, the Palestinian's prior to the UN offer weren't treating the Jews fair. When this offer came along, it was the Palestinian's who started the fight, a point that was down played in this video as the narrator rushed to point the finger at Israeli's wrong doings. Yet, another portrayal of this conflict mentioned in class, showed the Israeli's feel threatened because they are a minority surrounded by enemies within the region. All of this information means that the Palestinian's and other neighbors play more of a negative hand in the land dispute than what the narrator says.
To be honest, I don't know enough about either side to really say who I support. However, from what I gather, neither side is a bushel of roses. As learned in class their were a fair deal of geographic tensions from BOTH parties that caused the fighting and their is still a fair deal of geographic tensions from BOTH parties that factor into the fighting today. Thus, the bias of this video acts as a reminder that a person looking to understand a heated conflict, such as this one between neighbors, must view the information with causation.

I like how this map shows regionaly were most fans of a certain team are. However one thing it fails to take into account are fans of a certain team that live in another region. Like I live in Rhode Isalnd so based on the map i would be a Patriots fan, however I am 49ers fan, and I know i am not the only fan of a team not living in that teams region.

Penguins captured for cleaningComment on this story
Johannesburg - Thirty-seven African penguins caught in an oil slick in Cape Town have been captured to be cleaned up, the city said on Monday.
Two chicks were found abandoned on Robben Island, disaster risk management centre spokesperson Wilfred Solomons-Johannes said in a statement.
The birds and the chicks would be taken to the South African Foundation for Conservation of Coastal Birds in Table View. The chicks would be hand-reared for three months before being released.
The oil leaked from the wreckage of the Turkish bulk carrier MV Seli 1, which ran aground off Bloubergstrand in September 2009.
The city appealed to the Transport Department to remove the wreck from the coastline.
Anyone who found polluted seabirds could contact the city's disaster operations centre on 080-911-4357 or the foundation on 021-557-6155.
Aerial surveillance indicated that much of the oil seen leaking from the vessel at the weekend had been cleared up. - Sapa

The official NCAA sanctions against the USC football and basketball teams are out. Here's a pdf link to the entire NCAA report.
(Why? Read on…)
NCAA penalties included:
Disassociation of football player Reggie Bush, basketball player O.J. Mayo and "booster" Rodney Guillory.
In its report, the NCAA noted Reggie Bush improperly receiving a vehicle, rent-free home, airline tickets, hotel rooms, cash, limousine service, furniture and appliances.
Interesting that the men who actually gave Bush all that stuff, Lloyd Lake and Michael Michaels, are not ordered to disassociate themselves from USC - but Bush is.
Lake and Michaels are the ones who provided the smoking gun evidence to the NCAA that proved Bush's brazen rule-breaking.
So why did Lake and Michaels throw USC under the bus? (In actuality, they didn't deliberately.) Because Bush took hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash and benefits from Lake and Michaels under the pretense of signing with a marketing company they set up expressly to service Bush.
And then Bush completely blew them off.
When Lake and Michaels tried to recoup their large investment in Bush they got this (from Yahoo Sports, February, 2006):
Bush and his mother convene settlement talks with (Michael) Michaels and his attorney, Brian Watkins, at a Santa Monica, Calif., office belonging to (Mike) Ornstein, Bush's marketing agent. Bush's attorney, David Cornwell, is also present, and security guards look for recording devices on Michaels and Watkins by patting them down.
Sources say Michaels attempts to talk to Bush directly, at which point Cornwell tells Bush and his mother to leave the room. Cornwell, according to sources, offers $100,000 to settle the dispute.
Michaels and Watkins refuse, informing Cornwell that they intend to file a lawsuit to recoup monies given to Bush's family and potential earnings lost when the USC star failed to sign with (Michaels company) New Era Sports.
Bush's unwillingness to reportedly come close to repaying Michaels and Lake for their $300,000 investment is what led to Michaels and Lake to first leak the story to Yahoo and then later inform USC of what Bush was doing.
USC in turn asked the Pac-10 to investigate the situation. That then sparked a full-blown NCAA investigation.
Still, Bush could've saved USC from the shockingly harsh NCAA sanctions slapped on the school's football program today had he not contacted the U.S. District Attorney's office in San Diego to accuse Lake of extortion.
That lengthy Federal investigation into Bush's extortion claims is what brought down the USC program. From Yahoo Sports, January, 2007:
A federal investigation into extortion claims by New Orleans Saints running back Reggie Bush and his family has revealed the existence of taped conversations that could confirm Bush took cash and gifts while he was playing football for the University of Southern California.
Game over.
Once the Feds got involved, Michaels and Lake were only too happy to provide them smoking gun evidence of Bush taking hundreds of thousands of dollars in improper benefits from them. That evidence is why USC was so harshly punished today.
And the Feds extortion investigation started by Bush? Lake was never charged with any wrongdoing.
Had Bush paid Michaels and Lake back for their initial investment, plus a reasonable sweetener for future earnings lost, the hard evidence against Bush would've never come to light. And USC wouldn't be sitting where it is today.
Once Bush's extortion claims were debunked - with the football player incriminating himself with the NCAA in the process - Michaels and Lake filed civil lawsuits against Bush to try to, again, recoup their money.
Shamelessly, Bush then used those lawsuits as a legal mechanism to avoid cooperating with the NCAA's investigation into his improper activities. It isn't unreasonable to think that Bush's years of stonewalling the NCAA may have led to even harsher penalties for his Alma Mater.
Today Bush released this statement:
I have a great love for the University of Southern California and I very much regret the turn that this matter has taken, not only for USC, but for the fans and players. I am disappointed by today's decision and disagree with the NCAA's findings.
If the University decides to appeal, I will continue to cooperate with the NCAA and USC, as I did during the investigation. In the meantime, I will continue to focus on making a positive impact for the University and for the community where I live."
Speechless? Me too.

As a member of the National Women's Business Council, I've had the opportunity to engage with hundreds of female entrepreneurs. During our talks, I couldn't help but happen upon an interesting, yet frustrating discovery. 9 out of every 10 women I spoke with would rather stall their growth than ask for capital.
I have long read about capital. I have read it as a philosophical problem, as a mind-broadening concept, and as a powerful geo-political force. If we are to train a generation of students to make decisions that shape the world in an effective manner, we must help one another understand the principal forces that shape the world around us.

A journalist published on your website, William Tucker, was recently embedded with my company recently and published his story "Midnight Raid" about my company. There are some issues with the fact checking inside this story. First of all, the "Sergeant Peter Green" is actually First Sergeant servicemen's Green, and there begin the inaccuracies that only help contribute to the American service men's distrust of the media. Referring to paratroopers as "GIs" doesn't help my men with their hostilities, either.
Calling one of our interpreters "Hollywood's stereotype of the Middle Eastern terrorist" infuriates me, especially considering these men risk life and limb to work with us in the first place. This particular interpreter chooses to cover his face because we live in his city and his mother has already been shot by terrorists because they suspected him of working with Americans somewhere. Had he bothered to ask why Chris (not Ali, as William called him) covers his face, we would have answered readily.
To say of another interpreter that "[h]e has a ferocity toward the suspects-- and indeed begins slapping one around when Green momentarily leaves the room" is insinuating violations of the Law of Land Warfare. Is this what he insinuates? If so, it is my duty as commander to investigate the matter fully. I need a witness statement from Mr. Tucker, if this is the case. We follow the Geneva Convention.
Saying that my first sergeant gave an order to "tear the place apart" because an Iraqi lied to him is not only inaccurate, but is also completely contrary to what we do on a daily basis. Our goal here is to gain the trust of the Iraqi people we are trying to secure. Conducting "night raids" is about 10% of what we do on a daily basis. William did not bother to ask about the city council meetings we mentor our Iraqi counterparts through; nor did he seem interested in the fact that we are overcoming bureaucracy within both systems (Iraqi and American) to further reconstruction in Bayji. I feel betrayed by our media that our fellow patriots do not even get an accurate portrayal of what its Troopers do for their freedoms.
Reading this article, it seems to me that William had already decided the tone of his article beforehand. I am recommending to my chain of command that William have his credentials pulled and not be allowed to embed with us any longer. When did being a reporter go from a profession of service to the public of America to one of publishing stories simply to inflate one's sense of self?
Again, I am thoroughly disappointed by the manner of your correspondent's reporting. Please remember that, as reporters who provide America with a brief glimpse of what we do over here, you have an obligation to ensure that your stories are checked for fact. Is William's main aim to report facts to Americans or sell himself as a modern-day Ernie Pyle?
Incidentally, William placed the following quote at the beginning of one of his article: "Karl Zinsmeister's Boots on the Ground, which chronicled the event, has been read by almost every other soldier I've met over here." This quote is blatantly wrong, I believe the poll of my company (146 Paratroopers) I conducted yielded zero Troopers having read his book other than myself. I apologize for the ranting diatribe, but I believe I owe the Troopers of my company their defense. We are not amateurs, as he portrays us; we are professionals fighting to win a war we understand is extremely unpopular at home. Things can be frustrating enough fighting an oftentimes faceless enemy without having to fight your own countrymen.

Enjoyed the article, started my day off with a laugh, but wanted to make a comment about this:
"We need our corn for ethanol. Switch from Fritos to pork rinds."
Sorry since we are using all our corn for ethanol, there is not any left for pigs or people so no pork rinds or for that matter Tortillas.
Global Warming is the biggest hoax going right now, just follow the money. Carbon Credits give me a break Al.

Remember when Mama told you to eat your beets because children in Africa were starving? After 45 years of my eating beets, I'm turning red and the children in Africa are still starving. So apparently my swallowing down the food has no effect on the general amount of hunger in the world.
I have therefore come to the conclusion that if I start doing things I don't like, in 45 years Global Warming will still either exist or not exist, and it's just not worth it to find out 45 years from now that I gave up La Vida Loca for nothing.
I therefore have decided to follow the lead of our Glorious Al "W.H. Taft" Gore and consume 20 times the amount of everything (well, not food because my doctor advises against it, unlike Mr. Gore's doctor apparently) that other people consume, instead of cutting back. Unlike Mr. Gore, I promise not to insist that you do as I say and not as I do. You go right ahead and suit yourself.
I look forward, unlike the portly Mr. Gore, to 45 more years of happily sacrificing for nobody.

Some interesting ideas. About the corn, though: It'll be hard getting moonshiners to switch from corn to pork. Might put new meaning to "White Lightning," though.
But, first, I'd like Ms. Couric and every other person who keeps equivocating by saying "And all the experts agree. Well, almost every expert" to publish immediately the names of the scientists who agree. With each name, provide the following: CVs, including professional and technical societies or associations to which they belong, as well as groups such as EDF, NRDC, etc.; political persuasion and party affiliation; and an understandable, succinct statement of why the person think global warming exists. Provide traceable, verifiable references, too.
Maybe then the public can determine whether or not it's just hot air blowing their way.

Re: Quin Hillyer's A Friend in Duncan Hunter:
Great article on a man who would, undoubtedly, make a fine president.
Unfortunately, with our present system of selection of each party's nominee, i.e., primaries that are nothing more than beauty contests, with the "beauty" rules dependent on how much money is spent, and debates with absolutely ridiculous rules, his chances aren't very good.
There needs to come a time in the U.S., when each candidate is judged, not on sound bites, but on their record, and their proposals for solutions to the problem the country faces. If we continue down the road we are on, freedom in this country is doomed.

If only they could be the Republicans' nominees in '08 -- two decent, manly conservatives of whom we could be proud. (I'm ashamed of any spurious comparisons I've made of Bob Livingston's and Newt Gingrich's characters. Quin Hillyer's narratives about his friend and boss have convinced me that they are not in any way in pari material.) If the conventions were as wide open as they once were, these are the kind of candidates who might emerge. Can anyone seriously argue that the "democratic" primary system has produced better candidates or office-holders -- not to mention high drama during convention weeks? The successful candidates have been among those who have raised the most money -- often from dubious sources, such as governments inimical to America and its values, megalomaniac foreign billionaires, and hustlers of assorted stripes. The presidents produced include the completely amoral -- one of whom is now shilling for his equally amoral life partner -- and mean-spirited, vindictive, little, human ferrets with long memories. There is also a poorly educated failed divinity and law student ignoramus -- all the rage among the Hollywood ignoramus's -- who won the popular vote for president and lacks the common sense to turn out the lights before leaving for months-long sojourns among his familiars and Yahoo followers.

Re: Michael A. Tew & Alexandra V. Preate's Who Needs Foreign Investment:
Michael A. Tew & Alexandra V. Preate show little knowledge and understanding of the TRIPS Provisions. Indeed, they are wrong to say that "not only was the [Thai] government's compulsory license issued outside the terms of TRIPs and the WTO framework, but it also did not have an adequate dialogue or negotiation with the companies prior to issuing such licenses."
Not only was the compulsory license issued under one of the provision of the TRIPS (public non-commercial use), but the TRIPS does not require prior negotiations. It is worth noting that Margaret Chan, head of the World Health Organization, confirmed that the Thai government acted within the law, but also that the Thai government did try to negotiate unsuccessfully for a year with Abbott and recently published a white paper supporting its decision.
It is embarrassing to see journalists lashing out on a country trying to save lives whilst the US has used the same compulsory licensing to "steal" IP on software product, car part and other questionable items.
-- Dr. Roger Tatoud
Bangkok, Thailand
I was dismayed with the shallow reporting and analysis contained in your March 23rd Special Report, "Who Needs Foreign Investment?"
The authors entirely ignored the biggest issue slated to effect foreign investment in Thailand, the laws governing foreign ownership. Longtime loopholes known as "nominee" shareholders which enable foreign investors to exceed Thailand's 49 percent foreign ownership maximum are set to be plugged by the junta. This is what has investors here really worried. Although widely reported by the Asian Wall Street Journal, Financial Times and others over the past five months, the authors seemed to want to spin something else.
Yes, their main argument for foreign investors to consider exercising more caution toward Thailand was a recent action taken under the junta's watch related to intellectual property concerns as they pertain pharmaceutical licensing. While the facts as presented were correct, the authors' conclusion that this development is justification for some newfound warning for foreign investors is a bit of stretch.
The decisions regarding the compulsory licensing for these drugs were in the works for a long time. This action was going to happen with or without the coup. The current government was completely ignorant of this issue until the ministry responsible, the Thai FDA, took the decision.
Moreover, while this is an issue that may have put Thailand in the headlines again, it is not exclusive to Thailand, but something that is a growing issue for poorer countries generally. The ethical arguments surrounding this action can hardly be extrapolated to most products, thus should not be seen as indicative of any growing Thai trend to (further) thumb its nose at intellectual property rights generally.
Thailand's action was not unanticipated by the pharmaceutical industry, and they indeed will be looking for the WTO to back them up as poorer countries look for ways to increase access to expensive, life-saving drugs. That was where TRIPS came from, and it's time to see how well it works. It's little different from establishing case law for any other new statute. Thailand has its interpretation of TRIPS and the pharmaceutical companies theirs. It's up to the WTO now?
As far as the authors' reference to DVD piracy, this is a tired argument and hardly specific to Thailand.
Lastly, the shifting of foreign investment out of Thailand to Vietnam and elsewhere is not news either, as it has been under way for many years. Thailand's ebbing competitiveness has nothing to do with the junta, though the generals have been offering fuel to the fire -- just not for the reasons described in this article.

Re: The Washington Prowler's Rich Man, Power Man:
A blind man could see that impeached perjurer and former President Bill Clinton's amassing money to fund Hillary's attempt to turn the White House into another color. What he allegedly has accumulated should buy lots of votes and keep plenty of mouths shut, voluntarily or involuntarily. Purchase some terrific yellow journalism, too. Fund lots of sycophants as well as talking heads and pundits.
But how much serious payback do the Arabs who've contributed to Bill's library and his coffers expect -- and what kind of concessions have already been drafted and agreed upon -- should Hillary be elected and Bill becomes First Hubby? Why else would the Arabs and others who've stuffed Bill's pockets suck up to someone like him?

After reading this article it brought to mind James Riady, business man from Muslim Indonesia, son of an arms dealer with ties to China, that settles in Little Rock Arkansas and bankrolls the then Governor Clinton into and through his presidency. Then the man disappears from sight -- or so we are lead to believe. Clinton is selling influence through the Democrats and his wife's possible presidency like he sold influence to Riady and the Chinese. There is something unsavory behind that willing smile of Bill's that is frightening -- a political Gotti mafia don.

Re: Eric Peters's We Can Work It Out:
Eric Peters is right when he says it might take another year of our automakers building world-class cars to restore their reputation. But that's only because it will take that long for enough baby-boom journalists and politicians who've systematically trashed their reputation for decades to die. The prejudice against them is so intense that trial lawyer's fantasies of safety problems have been promoted for decades as scientifically proven truth. There was nothing unusually dangerous about the Corvair, Pinto, Chevy trucks with "side-saddle" gas tanks, or the Explorer.
Audi (accused of "unintentional acceleration") is the only foreign car maker to get the same treatment and it almost ruined them. Toyota, Honda, Mitsubishi and Volkswagen have sold many millions of dangerous and badly designed cars but their mistakes are ignored or quickly forgotten. The original Beetle was far more dangerous than the Corvair or the Pinto. Who remembers the Toyota Starlet or the Honda Civic CVCC? How many Americans even know that Mitsubishi's executives were indicted in Japan for concealing the safety problems of their Galant? The Toyota Previa and the original Honda Odyssey (aka the Isuzu Oasis) were not only pathetic excuses for an American minivan but were also both rated poor for safety by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. But nobody cared except the suckers who bought them and they're already almost forgotten.

Re: Mark Bender's letter (under "Surging Against Neocons") in Reader Mail's Everyone's a Critic:
No, there isn't anything goofier than the Goreacle talking about global warming. But one thing is close, the same old liberal rant concerning everything that's wrong with the Middle East (and the world in general):
It's the JOOOOOOOS! And BU$HITLER
For your information, Israel was attacked by its Arab neighbors, and any land it annexed after it kicked the collective Arab world's butt is by right THEIRS! Pillaging?! What exactly is the only decent, productive society in the Middle East pillaging from the murderous thugs in the Palestinian territories?
And as far as the war goes, I'm sure you get your facts from reading the Islamic terrorist-approved new outlets, MSM, CNN, ABC, CBS, Reuters, etc. I get my facts from the military who have been deployed, as I work with them every day. The overwhelming consensus is that leaving Iraq now will be a waste of everything that has been accomplished. Of course, based on reporting from the above-mentioned "news" outlets, that's nothing, but talking to those that have been there gives you a totally different outlook. That's what our troops are really bitter about - not the fact that they have been sent to do a job, but that the fifth column that includes the liberal-controlled media are ignoring anything that can't be used to support their message of failure and surrender. If we leave Iraq in it's current state, those selfless patriots that have given their lives to protect your right to be wrong will indeed have died in vain.
Now THERE is something REALLY too terrible to contemplate! (Thanks a lot, Socialist traitors.)

Re: Audrey Johns's letter (under "Mixed Reviews") in Reader Mail's Everyone's a Critic and R. Emmett Tyrrell Jr.'s Book 'im, Leno:
Once again Dr. Tyrrell has stuck a major nerve with the myrmidon crowd! When Ms. Audrey Johns referenced "our beloved Bill Clinton," I gagged and regurgitated for at least 30 minutes before I could begin to respond. As usual, when there "is no there there" the Dumocrats resort to the inanities of MoveOn. Nowhere in her screed did Ms. Johns support anything she (or MoveOn espoused).
It certainly took a great deal of intelligence to recommend that we "go Swiftboat ourselves." Swiftboats might work better than cigars however, which posits the reason for her "Warm regards."
While her scatological demands did nothing to wet (sic) my appetite for anything -- her inherent nastiness did whet my appetite to respond post haste (or post nausea whichever the case may be)!

The bad: His lack of height creates problems especially in jump ball situations. He lacks the size to play tough press coverage against bigger receivers and will have trouble getting a jam on them at the line. He is not afraid to support the run, but lacks the size to be really effective, so he usually goes low and tries to cross body or take out the runner's legs with his shoulder rather than facing and wrapping up. As a tackler, he needs to wrap up properly especially in the open field if he expects to see time early as a nickel cornerback.
Outlook: Overall, he is an interesting fast-rising corner. He has fine speed and the toughness to overcome his smallish frame. He's a good prospect with the well-developed coverage skills to be a high-level nickel corner early, but he will have to improve to compete for a fulltime starting job. Top 100 prospect with the talent to surprise. Good late first-day selection.

The rumor mills are buzzing with whispers that Pebbles took her first round of revenge against TLC for their involvements in portraying her as the "villain" in the "CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story" biopic. TLC fan site @OfficialTLCNews sent out a tweet that alerted Black Twitter to some shadiness going on between TLC and Epic/LaFace Records. According to the 140 character scoop, TLC was dropped from their label!
Chilli used her verified account to respond to a die-hard TLC fan, saying:
The tweet has since been deleted. This comes after TLC's latest disc 'TLC 20' jumped 14 spots to the top of the charts following the premiere of the controversial film. Pebbles recently visited "The Wendy Williams Show" where she dished on what was "real" or "fake."
Get those juicy deets, here:
Wendy Williams Gets Pebbles To Spill All About TLC & More!
1. Pebbles On "The Wendy Williams Show"
Pebbles, the former manager of Grammy-winning girl group TLC, took to "The Wendy Williams Show" to finally tell her side of the story after she claimed she was inaccurately portrayed as the villain in the successful VH1 biopic "CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story." Click through to get the juiciest quotes from the interview!
2. Does Pebbles Believe Chilli Slept With L.A Reid?
Rumor had it that in the '90s, Pebbles caught her husband at the time, L.A Reid, and her artist, Chilli having sex but Pebbles says, "I would have caught a case had I seen something like that. That didn't happen." Still, Pebbles does believe her ex and Chilli had an affair: "Absolutely. I didn't know, I suspected a couple of things. I didn't want to believe that for years because I felt like [TLC] were my daughters."
3. Did Pebbles Steal Millions Of Dollars From TLC Through Bogus Contracts?
Wendy asked Pebbles the million dollar question about the millions of dollars TLC claimed she robbed them of. So did she steal their money? "Hell no," Pebbles said. "This is one of the biggest, bogus lies that I saw in the movie. It was laughable, some of the stuff." When asked if the girls got to see their contracts Pebbles said yes: "They had to get [their contracts] negotiated."
4. Did Pebbles Really Kicked Chilli Out Of TLC?
"Absolutely not, T-Boz and Left Eye did," Pebbles said. "Let me tell you something, and I love my Left Eye…[it was] because of what they said what was happening in the studio. This is what they said to me: 'She's in here doing this and doing that.' They have group rules. I sat down with them to establish how you want to be a unit, so you can keep the communication. You got three girls, you gotta keep them together."
5. Did Pebbles Really Buy TLC Rav 4s?
According to Pebbles, TLC was making money but not enough to purchase luxury cars. "Listen, you don't have Ferrari money, why get you one? You haven't made that. You just came out, you're a new group," she said.
6. Did Pebbles Really Pay The Girls $25 A Week?
Pebbles' short answer for that: "Look at my boot that I got for you, Wendy. I don't do $25 on things, I'm a very generous person, that's a lie, a huge one."
7. How Did Pebbles Feel About The Way She Was Portrayed In "CrazySexyCool"?
"How would you feel if you were being portrayed as something you're not?," she told Wendy. "And you're not being portrayed as who you are, which is a visionary. I'm not an assistant, you know, just here, looking around, getting her hair done and some nail polish. I'm a visionary. The bottom line is, you had your own attorneys, the only thing I did was get a referral for you because nobody knows you."
8. Did Pebbles Choose TLC's Lawyers So She Can Manipulate Them?
"No, no, no. I did not know them. Twenty years ago, we're in Atlanta, it's a reputable firm, so T-Boz is a shampoo girl, are they gonna pick up her call at that point in their life to say, do you wanna negotiate a contract? No, it has to be based on reputation. I'm saying, would you please, I have a group that I want to sign, but they need representation. Please take the meeting, if it works out, cool."
9. So Was There Any Truth To The TLC Biopic?
"CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story" was labeled a true story, but Pebbles said the film was "laughable" and far from accurate. "It was a complete lie," she said. The one small nugget of truth in the film according to Pebbles: "I did wear Chanel bags," she said.
Details are still developing…

Estimation and Impact of Gender Differences in Risk Tolerance
Neelakantan, Urvi, Economic Inquiry
Are women systematically less risk-tolerant than men? The answer has critical implications for the financial well-being of women (Schubert et al., 1999). For example, corporations may pass women over for promotion if it is believed that they are unable to make risky financial decisions (Johnson and Powell, 1994). Financial advisers, believing that women are less risk tolerant, may recommend conservative portfolios that have lower returns (Wang, 1994).
This paper uses a simple model of individual portfolio choice to estimate the distributions of risk tolerance for women and men. Moments of the model are matched to data on Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) from the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) to obtain estimates of the distributions' parameters. Under the assumption of constant relative risk aversion (CRRA) utility, results show that the mean risk tolerance is 0.25 for women and 0.28 for men. Economists generally assume that risk aversion, the reciprocal of risk tolerance, falls in the 0-10 range (Jagannathan and Kocherlakota, 1996). The estimates obtained in this paper are consistent with this assumption.
The impact of the results is gauged in the context of gender differences in wealth accumulation. Less risk-tolerant individuals are more conservative investors. Conservative investments can lead to low levels of wealth accumulation and may account for the gender gap in wealth (Lyons et al., 2008). Data on older Americans from the HRS show that men have 103% more wealth in their IRAs than do women. (1) The results from this paper show that gender differences in risk tolerance alone would lead to men accumulating 10% more wealth than women. Gender differences in risk tolerance can thus account for nearly 10% of the gap in wealth accumulation. By comparison, gender differences in earnings can account for 51% of the wealth gap.
The results have implications for recent economic and policy changes that are making individuals increasingly responsible for their own financial security. Financial security depends greatly on the ability to accumulate adequate retirement wealth (Wolff, 1998). The results suggest that while the difference in risk tolerance does contribute to the gender gap in wealth accumulation, the role of the gender gap in earnings remains a primary concern.
Gender differences in risk tolerance have been observed in responses to survey questions and risk-tolerance instruments. The National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979 (NLSY79) and the HRS both include a series of questions about choosing between two jobs, one that pays respondents their current income with certainty and the other that has a 50-50 chance of doubling their income or reducing it by a certain fraction. Analyzing the HRS question, Barsky et al. (1997) found that men tended to be somewhat more risk-tolerant than women. Spivey (2008) corroborated this finding using the NLSY79. Grable and Lytton (1998) and Sung and Hanna (1996) studied the responses to a subjective risk-tolerance question in the Survey of Consumer Finances (SCF) and concluded that women were significantly less risk-tolerant than men. Grable (2000) used a used a 20-item instrument to assess risk tolerance among faculty and staff at a university and also found that women were less risk-tolerant than men.
Researchers have also made inferences about women's risk tolerance based on observed wealth accumulation and investment choices. Using SCF data, Jianakoplos and Bernasek (1998) found that as individuals' wealth increased, the proportion of wealth held in risky assets increased for both men and women, but the effect was significantly smaller for single women. They concluded that single women were less risk-tolerant than single men. Dwyer et al. (2002) found that women took less risk than men in their mutual fund investment decisions. However, the impact of gender on risk-taking was reduced significantly when controlling for the investor's financial knowledge. …

They have intentional wardrobe malfunctions.
Most people try to avoid showing their more intimate body parts in public. Celebrities, however, are less shy when it comes to their bodies. In fact, Madonna is so in tune with her, er, "Human Nature" that while she was performing in concert in Istanbul, Turkey, she stripped down to a revealing lacy bra -- and then peeled it open to show her nipple. That's Madonna at 53. Can't wait to see her at 103. Wait, maybe not. (The Sun)
