DEARBORN, Mich., Dec. 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
- Ford vehicles including the all-new 2013 Fusion are increasingly equipped with sensors that assist drivers with increased awareness
- Sensor fusion, machine learning, and "big data" among the predictions for the next wave of Ford research and development
State-of-the-art sensing, computing and communications systems are not only quickly changing consumer expectations in people's everyday lives, but are driving innovation in the automotive industry at an incredible pace in preparation for the future.
"Ford was founded on the innovative spirit of Henry Ford, and the opportunity today to reinvent the driving experience excites us just as it probably would have him," said Paul Mascarenas, vice president and chief technical officer of Ford. "Technology is enabling Ford to bring a new level of awareness and intelligence that will dramatically enhance our customers' time behind the wheel."
As CTO, Mascarenas has been leading the team researching and developing new technologies for Ford vehicles, particularly in the area of driver assistance and mobile device connectivity.
"The new Fusion sedan demonstrates how we're making the car smarter using attainable and affordable technology and thus helping create a better driver," continues Mascarenas. "Fusion features an unprecedented level of sensors for its driver assist technologies, machine learning techniques to deliver more electric-only driving on the hybrids, and innovative graphical interfaces to help coach drivers to be as fuel efficient as possible."
With more than 145 actuators, 4716 signals, and 74 sensors including radar, sonar, cameras, accelerometers, temperature and even rain sensors, the 2013 Fusion can monitor the perimeter around the car and see into places that are not readily visible from the driver's seat. These sensors produce more than 25 gigabytes of data per hour which is analyzed by more than 70 on-board computers. The actuators combined with signal information from the driver assist sensors can alert the driver to potential dangers, and actively assist with parking and lane keeping.
"So far we've just scratched the surface of what is possible," said Mascarenas. "In the Fusion, we have sensors and actuators that act independently as part of the assist features. The next phase, currently in research, involves sensor fusion, where engineers learn how to more comprehensively characterize the environment by blending multiple signals, and add externally available information through cloud connectivity."
According to Mascarenas' predictions, top areas for car technology innovation in the coming years will include:
- "Big data" analysis and intelligent decision making: Ford is researching the use of real-time sensor data – radar and camera-based – that can help evaluate external factors affecting driver attention, such as traffic congestion, and thus limit potential distractions such as an incoming phone call
- Upgradeable, customizable hardware: Ford's OpenXC research platform looks at the potential for open-source, community-driven innovation of plug-and-play hardware modules that provide infinite opportunities for rapid customization
- Seamless integration across cloud ecosystems: The success of Ford SYNC® has been linked to its open, agnostic platform strategy that has allowed for adoption and compatibility with the burgeoning mobile ecosystem; the next step is to do the same for the consumer shift toward cloud-based services
- Advanced machine learning: The new Fusion and C-MAX Energi plug-in hybrids utilize EV+, a feature that learns the typical locations of charging, such as home and office, and then automatically maximizes electric-only driving mode when nearing those locations
- Biometrics: Ford is researching biometric sensors, such as those embedded in a car seat, to measure stress levels for a more personalized response from driver assist technologies, because skill levels – and thus stress – can vary in certain situations
- Prediction: Ford researchers are looking at ways to predict driver behavior, such as a driver's destination based on prior history, to help optimize and configure vehicle controls for improved performance such as better energy management
- Rapid data authentication: Ford sees significant potential in vehicle-to-vehicle communications and is actively researching the technology globally, including advanced Wi-Fi® with rapid authentication capability so that cars can exchange information quickly and securely, helping drivers avoid potential collisions
"All of these areas of research are well within our reach," concludes Mascarenas. "The key to readiness and implementation in Ford vehicles is ensuring the customer experience of these technology features trumps the technology itself."

The Rest of the Patient Story
I've written previously about allowing a patient to tell you their story – about taking the time to listen and engage all the aspects of their case history, the injury in question, and the related issues.
The Art of Listening
One of the most important clinical concepts for me was voiced by the legendary physician William Osler. "Listen to your patient, he/she is telling you the diagnosis." After treating literally thousands of patients, it can become almost second nature to quickly discover clues which reveal the underlying diagnosis.
Filling the Gap: The Role of Alternative Practitioners in a Broken Health Care System
I have been asked many times what got me into alternative medicine. My answer is simple: I want to truly help and make a difference in people's health.
Business Lesson #1: Adapt or Else
My wife and I recently enjoyed an excellent meal at a restaurant recommended by some friends. We often have concerns about restaurant recommendations, as many have been disappointing.
The IME System: A Current Public Health Risk and Solutions That Are Working
I strongly believe in the independent medical examination (IME) system. There are far too many doctors in every profession who are not following E&M protocols and never claim MMI (maximum medical improvement) has occurred for their patients, which has caused financial stress for many private and public carriers.

The thoracolumbar junction (TLJ) and the peripheral sensory nerves that exit from it are frequent, important and rarely recognized sources of lower back, pelvic and hip pain. Let's outline a clear exam protocol for diagnosing the problem.
The Power of Eccentric Exercise: Hamstring Injury Prevention and Rehab
For almost 20 years, I've worked with professional athletes who make a living by running really fast. It goes without saying that hamstring injury (HSI) prevention and rehabilitation is a big part of what they expect from a sports chiropractor.
Constructing Our Reality: The Primary Channels and Perception, Part 1
My favorite topic of discussion within Chinese medicine is the acupuncture channel systems. First of all, each of us have them. They are part of our bodies; not something external to us. To learn about the acupuncture channels is to learn about ourselves.
Asking Patients the Right Questions
When was the last time you asked a patient a question? Maybe 30 seconds ago? But, are you asking the right questions to elicit valuable and useful information? As a healthcare provider, you've likely spent hundreds of hours learning to ask the right questions to gather critical health information from your patients.
Recording and Appropriate Billing of Timed Physical Medicine Services
There is a common misunderstanding about timed therapy services and although you do have some knowledge of timed service documentation, based on your comment on the 8-minute rule, your understanding is correct, but incomplete.

Arizona Cities Hit With Additional Massage Regulations
By Editorial Staff
Less than one month after Arizona Governor Janet Napolitano, signed SB 1103 - a bill that would regulate the practice of massage therapy (www.massagetoday.com/archives/2003/07/01.html) - into law, Scottsdale and Phoenix have adopted their own massage regulations.
On June 3, the Scottsdale City Council voted unanimously to tighten the reigns on the massage therapy profession in an effort to close illegitimate massage sites and bring an end to prostitution masquerading as massage.3,4
Shortly following the Scottsdale decision, which took effect July 3, the city of Phoenix followed suit, voting on June 25 to implement new rules governing the profession for the same reason.The Phoenix ordinance is scheduled to take effect July 25.
The regulations will likely affect many massage therapists legitimately practicing in both areas.
The Scottsdale City Council adopted the new regulations in response to citizen complaints about the proliferation of illicit activity and illegitimate massage parlors, specifically in the city's southern region. Likewise, authorities in Phoenix contend that prostitution posing as massage continues to be problematic.2
According to Phoenix police Lieutenant Larry Jacobs, officers frequently uncover prostitution activity in massage parlors during sting operations. "If we hit five places, four of them have violations," he said.
Although the passage of SB 1103 would have naturally addressed these issues, that law will not go into effect until July 1, 2004. According to Scottsdale City Manager, Jan Dolan, that is too long to wait. "We think it's important to have these controls in place now," she said. "We don't think it's prudent to wait a year."5
According to the Scottsdale police department, about 15 percent to 20 percent of establishments that bill themselves as massage parlors are illegitimate.
Among other stipulations, the Scottsdale regulations will require that massage therapists complete a minimum of 500 educational hours or demonstrate equivalent training and experience; take a national certification examination; submit to annual fingerprinting and background checks; refrain from practicing between the hours of 10 p.m. and 5 a.m.; and carry or wear their licensee identification cards while engaged in or available for massage. Additionally, license fees are expected to increase.1
Licensed massage therapists currently practicing in Scottsdale will be "grandfathered" in under some of the new regulations, which would include exemption from taking the national exam.
The new Phoenix regulations will concentrate more on massage businesses and require that massage business managers have their own permits in addition to the business owners. Phoenix massage establishments will be prohibited from having more than one license and will also be required to submit floor plans showing which rooms are designated for massage.6,7
What remains unclear is how the new Scottsdale and Phoenix regulations will be affected once SB 1103 goes into effect next year. Look for continuing updates in future issues of Massage Today.

News & Interviews for Catch and Release
Critic Reviews for Catch and Release
All Critics (136) | Top Critics (38) | Fresh (28) | Rotten (104) | DVD (12)
A story of self-discovery Catch and Release is ... well it's horribly, horribly dull is what it is. It's like an entire season of a mediocre primetime soap opera squeezed into a couple of hours.
...harbours a secret crush on Gray but, hey, so does everybody, since Gray has fairies and butterflies flying out of her vagina.
Catch and Release will not cause Ben Affleck any husband-envy. It's a harmless romantic comedy that will garner Garner no awards and middling success at the box office.
Suffice it to say that when the best thing you can say about a movie is the soundtrack was decent (catch the old Lemonheads tune in the beginning), it's not worth the trip to the theater.
By the conclusion of the film, Catch and Release transformed itself from a risk-taking romantic comedy with a darkly humorous lining into a stereotypically syrupy outing...
Audience Reviews for Catch and Release
A woman whose fiancee recently died learns that he had a child with another woman.
I only rented this film to see Kevin Smith, and he wasn't bad, even capable of handling a heavy, dramatic scene. Jennifer Garner was also occasionally good. But nothing can rescue the story. The bottom line is that I have absolutely no idea what draws Gray to Fritz, and if I see one more film in which a woman slaps a man, then is thwarted when she tries to slap him twice more with alternating hands before he pins her against a wall and they begin making out, I'm going to try to get slapped more often. And there's an oppressive unevenness to the film made worse by the mix CD of indie songs that seem to be squeezed into the film.
Overall, Catch and Release is not a good film because the motivations of the main characters are more mysterious than the reason that nobody ever kisses after getting hit.
Super Reviewer
It was an ok film!

Ben's Reviews > Catherine the Great: Love, Sex, and Power
Catherine the Great: Love, Sex, and Power
by Virginia Rounding (Goodreads Author)
by Virginia Rounding (Goodreads Author)
Ben's review
Jul 15, 11
Read from June 19 to July 15, 2011
This book gives great insight into Catherine's personality, background, life, and interests. It is a fantastic read with copious citations from Catherine's own memoirs and those of her courtiers and confidants, and really gives one a good feeling for the time period. My only complaint is that it could use to cover her foreign policy and actual accomplishments better; I am writing an essay on her motivations for forming the League of Armed Neutrality, yet what is arguably her most well-known accomplishment is neglected in this book. However, this book is wonderful for the areas it does cover.

Reuters reported yesterday that the Chinese government has banned the use of Windows 8 on Chinese government computers. According to the official Xinhua news agency, the ban is being put in place by the Central Government Procurement Center primarily over security concerns now that Microsoft has ended support for XP, which is thought to be the most widely used operating system within China. This news has led Forbes to speculate that this may prompt Redmond to continue to support the OS within the People's Republic.
"…we could possibly see Microsoft alter its decision to abandon XP and set up a special team just to provide support in China. Beijing used a similar tactic about a decade ago, when it threatened a similar ban on Windows due to security concerns. As a result, Microsoft made the rare move of revealing its source code to Beijing and the situation was resolved."
However, this ban may turn out to have little to do with Microsoft's abandonment of XP and much to do with the company's cozy relationship with the NSA. Documents released by Edward Snowden have indicated that Microsoft has built secret back doors into Windows to aid the U.S. intelligence community in their efforts to spy on foreign governments. In addition, Snowden documents have revealed that Microsoft kept the security agency informed about unpatched security issues in Windows, allowing the NSA to exploit them to their own ends.

About Sxsteen
Sxsteen I will say that the one thing that made me mad the most was the CGI.
Sxsteen Soon as I saw the first teaser, I knew I shouldn`t put up in any hope into this movie. Drama Videos Perhaps the most respected character, Snake Eyes, is now just a frontline stooge. Romance Videos This is also worth watch show it has humor, team work two things that kids need to learn.
This utilization has been subsequently carried on in every single game in the series and is not extremely more graphic in IV. Not to mention the screenplay, the production design of this film is not consistence at all.
Live Sports The studios should pay more respect and faith in Asian materials.
Live Sports This GI Joe series seems to lack anything that would make a good show for kids.
hopefully its getting better. Oolong, as in the tea; Videl, like the onion variety; Ginger, obvious; Spice; Blueberry; Raspberry; Raisin; Almond; Apple; and in Dragonball there was not an entire family of about 12 named after desserts. Sxsteen At the end of the movie all i could do was ask `Why did they make this movie and who did they make this movie for?
For those of us who like shows with a little more. ..

However, most of my patients have other goals as well, such as: "I want to lose 10 to 20 pounds"; "I feel old and want to slow down the aging process"; "My doctor says I am becoming a diabetic and need to exercise"; or "I'm tired and want more energy."

TDR Massage Protocol for Pain Relief
By Linda LePelley, RN, NMT
Tissue Density Restoration (TDR) massage was developed in response to my clinical observations over a number of years that musculoskeletal tissues experiencing pain are associated with an elevation in tissue density (TD) and once the elevated TD is reduced, the pain is alleviated.Wanting to focus on these phenomenons and better understand their nature, I decided to stop doing relaxation massage and limited my practice to clients in pain.
My original focus was directed at determining the components of treatment that are most effective and discarding actions that, at best, do not appear to contribute to improvement or, at worst, are counterproductive. I asked my clients to participate; rather than just laying back and quietly enjoying the massage, they keep me informed about what they are experiencing throughout the treatment. Patterns of duplicable efficacy emerged, resulting in an extremely beneficial protocol.
Questions Remain
Once I determined I had a replicable method of alleviating pain by treating the elevated TD, the questions that remained were:
The answers I've found are much like the treatment itself; simplistic, easily dismissed by some because they seem too elemental and easy. However, they are consistently reliable. In my experience of actively looking for elevated TD, I've found it happens to everyone in pain. All musculoskeletal pain can be located and felt (in the tactile sense) by a second person, as palpable areas of indurations at the locus of pain. From the toes to the top of the head, elevated TD can be found at any physical location that hurts. The older a person is, the thicker and more compressed the density can be. I suspect the reason has more to do with a buildup over time, rather than degenerative changes of aging. Rather than deterioration, it seems more accurate to describe it as a disorder of accumulation. (Perhaps previous injuries lay a foundation upon which TD builds? Maybe a residue is deposited during the inflammation process which, if not cleared out through normal circulation, attracts mineral deposits over time.) Through close observation and repetition I've found that the more malleable the affected tissue becomes, the longer the relief will last. People can be fully relieved of chronic pain and that relief retained with maintenance massages.
How it Works
I have ideas of how and why TDR massage works, but they are just that, ideas. I am not a pathologist, biochemist or neurologist, nor do I have the time or inclination to acquire the additional education it would require to be able to investigate the physiology involved in the formation of elevated TD. But I don't need to. I trust what I can see, experience and duplicate. I don't have to fully understand the mechanism of the combustion engine to drive a car, but that doesn't impair or hinder my ability to do so. I can leave scientific research to those who have dedicated their education and interest and are qualified to do such work. I suspect that in much the same way that I am impelled to discover how to affect changes in tissue density, a motivated researcher will investigate that explanation one day. I am a nurse massage therapist – my duty, talent and intention is to provide my clients the best possible pain treatment outcomes.
In order to share the method of TDR massage, I use the term, "Protocols". While I do not anticipate changes to these protocols, I think that it's a mistake to declare rules and dogmatically follow them. Doing so fosters resistance to any future perspective or observation that may suggest they need to be adjusted. It also stifles exploration, hinders growth and suppresses conversation and communication. With that said, I've found that by following these directions, the results are reliable and effective.
TDR Massage Protocol
The massage movements I use are abbreviated Swedish – friction effleurage in small, circular areas; using slight petrissage movements, which helps monitor the boundaries and density of the target area as they change throughout the treatment; and vibration, which can be used as the tissues become malleable and are able to be grasped and gently shaken. The smaller the focus area, the sooner it is likely to be resolved.
You will want to measure and document the state of the target area before providing treatment and then again afterwards, using the Tissue Density Grading Scale (TDGS). (See "The Tissue Density Grading Scale: A Communication Tool," Massage Today, March, 2014.) By doing so, you will have an accurate picture of the condition the tissues were in before treatment and proof of the effectiveness of your treatment afterwards.
First, focus on the location of the pain and target the worst spots first. (As tissues soften and the pain begins to resolve, the target area may shift.) Causing pain promotes the localized excretion of inflammatory chemicals which I suspect may play a part in the development of elevated TD. Regardless, there is no reason to exacerbate an already painful condition. The amount of pressure to use at any time will depend on the clients ability to tolerate it without going over a 3 on the 0/10 pain scale. Using the Walton Pressure Scale along with the TDGS will help you determine treatment progress and provide more precise documentation.
Keep the tissues you are working on moving continually. This will usually require working on areas no larger than the span of your two hands at a time. Doing so not only contributes to tissue heating through friction, but I believe that in addition, the movement combined with appropriate pressure, creates a fatigue state that helps soften TD.
I have found that it takes about 45 minutes of consistent, firm, circular massage to begin to affect change at which time you can feel a smoothing of ridges and softening change in the density of the target area. At this time, the client will also state that it feels better. Continue treatment(s) until the indurations are no longer palpable, and tissues are with a Grade 1 on the TDGS.
If the condition requires more than one treatment to resolve, it is best to schedule following treatments as closely as possible. The tissues seem to remain more malleable for a few days following treatment, thereby not requiring as long to respond and soften.
This protocol applies to pain of any size, at any location. When a new client comes seeking relief, I tell them that if I can feel elevated TD at their pain site, I will be able to help them. As one develops their sensitivity to the palpable varieties of tissue densities and becomes adept at restoring it, they will find themselves able to truthfully state, "I feel your pain," and then relieve it.

Gotcha! Wanyama seals record-breaking £12m move from Celtic to Southampton
Victor Wanyama delivered an emotional farewell message to Celtic and their fans after completing his 'dream' £12million move to Southampton.
The 22-year-old Kenyan international, who was officially unveiled at St Mary's after penning a four-year deal believed to be worth in the region of £30,000 per week, insisted he was fulfilling a long-held ambition by taking his place in the Premier League.
But thanking the Parkhead club for giving him the platform to do so, he tweeted: 'I have a day of mixed emotion. Happy to play in EPL, honoured to be the 1st Kenyan to play in EPL ... But VERY SAD to leave PARADISE.'
And in reference to the No 67 shirt he wore, Wanyama added: 'The club has been great you fans incredible... 67 will always be in my HEART. I hope you wish me well.'
New boy: Mauricio Pochettino welcomes Victor Wanyama to the Saints
His transfer
smashes the previous Scottish export record of £9.5m paid by Spartak
Moscow for Celtic's Aiden McGeady in 2011 but levels Southampton's
record signing alongside the £12m they paid for Bologna's Gaston Ramirez
last summer.
Wanyama, who
revealed he had been won over by the south-coast club's dogged
determination to land him, had already said his farewells to his Celtic
team-mates on their current German tour before jetting off to seal the
bumper deal.
'I am happy to be
part of Southampton's squad,' said the powerful midfielder. 'It means a
lot because it has been my dream to play in the Premier League and now I
am here.
'Finally it has happened and we've come to the end of negotiations, so I am delighted. There were many clubs that inquired about my services over the past season, but it's Southampton who kept on trying to acquire my services, and that trust is very important.
Moving south: Wanyama will join the south coast side despite interest from Cardiff
'Southampton is a
good club and it has good players, so I just want to train hard and work
hard to be a part of the starting XI. We'll see where that will take
me. I'm very grateful to be here.
'I've seen that the
stadium is great and the dressing room is looking good, and I know some
of the players. I hope they will help me and I think I will get along
with the others, so it will be good.'
Saints boss
Mauricio Pochettino was delighted to finally get his man but appeared to
take a swipe at the player's advisors for previously slowing up the
deal over personal terms.
Up against the best: Wanyama tasted victory over Barcelona last season with Celtic in the Champions League
'I am very pleased to have secured the signing of Victor because we are a big admirer of his talents and he will fit in well to the team here,' said the Argentinian. 'I want to stress that the deal could have been done sooner, but this shows that we do business on our terms. The most important thing is that ourselves, Celtic and the player are all happy with the way it has gone.
'The fact that a
lot of top European clubs were also keen to sign him shows what an
attractive prospect Southampton Football Club is to a player who had his
pick of the teams in England and abroad.
Keeping fit: Wanyama had been training in Germany with the Scottish Premier League champions
Victor Wanyama became Scotland's record transfer after his £12million move to Southampton. Here, Sportsmail look back at the previous record exports.
Aiden McGeady: £9.5million
A product of the Celtic academy, winger was a Champions League star and Ireland international before Spartak Moscow swooped.
Alan Hutton: £9million
Rangers full-back's form for club and country in 2007-08 caught the attention of Spurs, who took the defender to London that January.
Craig Gordon: £9million
Scotland and Hearts No 1 before Roy Keane's Sunderland paid record fee for a Scottish goalkeeper in 2007.
Gio van Bronckhorst: £8.5million
Dutchman joined Dick Advocaat at Rangers in 1998 for £5.5m and it wasn't long before vultures were circling. Joined Arsenal in 2001.
Jean-Alain Boumsong: £8million
Joined Rangers on a Bosman from Auxerre in summer of 2004. Signed for Graeme Souness' Newcastle for £8m the following January.
'I've watched him perform at the top level in the Champions League, and I believe he will be a valuable addition to our Premier League squad for the season ahead,' added Pochettino, for whom Wanyama is his second signing of the summer following the £8.5m arrival of Lyon's Dejan Lovren.
Speaking in Germany ahead of his team's last tour match here against Union Berlin, Celtic manager Neil Lennon said: 'I would like to wish Victor all the best with his move to Southampton. He is a good young player and I think the price tag reflects the performances he's put in and the work we've done to develop him.'
Celtic have made a
whopping profit on Wanyama after snapping him up for a bargain £900,000
from Belgian side Germinal Beerschot two summers ago.
He shot to
prominence during last season's run to the Champions League last 16,
where he scored in the historic 2-1 win over Barcelona last November,
and was quickly being linked with a number of leading English and
European clubs.
Southampton proved
to be his most determined suitors — albeit Malky Mackay's Cardiff City
also made a bid when Saints' move appeared to have collapsed at one
point — but Pochettino revealed last week he had never given up on the
Lennon has already intimated he will reinvest the Wanyama money in a replacement and in fresh contracts for some of his remaining Parkhead stars nearing the end of their deals.

Daring into the abyss: Slack-liner tip-toes his way across a Romanian drain hole above a 200ft blackhole drop
Stepping out over an abyss, this daredevil proves the best slacklining spots are not always up a mountain.
And with a drop of more than 200ft, this reservoir drain more than delivers the necessary fear factor.
Extreme sportsman Flaviu Cernescu, 31, crossed the pitch-black hole eight times in one day, describing the experience as 'mesmerising'.

'The sound of water dripping inside played over the silent sounds of

The 31-year-old even took his unicycle out for a spin around the rim of the funnel, at Lake Iovanu, Romania, which is designed to flush surplus water away.
He used a safety harness for the slackline walks but eventually plucked up the courage to slide out on the rope and hang free without protection.

Community Health Charities of Wisconsin announced today that their revenues are up an astounding 28 percent from last year, raising more than $2.733 million for their member charities.
"While charities around the country are saying 'the new up is flat', being up 28 percent is really a testament to a strategic transformation we set in motion five years ago," says Gary Ross, PhD, President and CEO at Community Health Charities of Wisconsin. "We have slowly, deliberately and intentionally changed direction within our organization, focusing on our business and putting our members first. I'm proud to say it is working."
Community Health Charities is not a fundraising entity, but an agent for their members in company giving campaigns. The organization provides a service to its members by putting them in front of employees in companies throughout Wisconsin.
"Having worked in the for-profit side of business for many years, I've been able to apply the knowledge I have gained as a corporate leader and business professor and incorporate it into a successful business plan for the non -profit world," says Ross. "Change can be difficult, but it can be undertaken continually and incrementally if everyone stays focused on the same direction."
Community Health Charities of Wisconsin is a federation of Wisconsin's most trusted health care charities. CHCWI and its members work to connect employees to these organizations through workplace/employee contribution campaigns, in both the public and private sectors. Contributors to CHCWI make direct designation choices to the member charities. These contributions are passed to the charities that use them to fund local support, education and other programs for Wisconsin residents. For more information, call 414-918-9100 or visit www.healthcharities.org/wisconsin.

No matter how seasoned you are as a traveler, no matter how tightly you can make Die Hard <\/em>fists with your toes, no matter how many Ambiens you pop pre-flight, you will get jet lag<\/em><\/strong>. It's science; accept it. Though it can't be avoided, it can be minimized -- with these seven expert tips.
\n
\nBut first: what is jet lag?<\/strong>
\nA relatively newish condition, jet lag was born when people started flinging themselves across time zones faster than their bodies could adjust. According to Dr. Gary Zammit, Executive Director of New York City\u2019s Sleep Disorders Institute, it's the negative experiences people have when their internal body clock becomes \u201cdesynchronized\u201d from the actual clock time around them.
\n
\nIf you recall 6th grade biology, our bodies have a natural 24hr cycle called the \u201ccircadian rhythm\u201d, which tells us when to eat, sleep, read RedBook on the can, and have sex in order not to get pregnant (wait, no?). Jet lag screws that rhythm up, basically ensuring you look ridiculous dancing to Happy<\/a><\/strike> turning you into a version of yourself usually reserved for late Friday nights: sluggish, confused, hungry, moody, unwell. Zammit says it usually takes about one day to adapt to every time zone crossed when traveling West, and about a day and a half when moving East.
