Equipment maker Caterpillar eyeing new factory in US
By Corinna Petry
Published: March 12, 2010
Global heavy equipment manufacturer Caterpillar Inc. has kicked off a study that it said could lead to construction of a new hydraulic excavator factory in the United States.
Such a move could triple Caterpillar's current capacity of hydraulic excavators now produced domestically and significantly boost job creation linked directly to higher excavator production, Peoria, Ill.-based Caterpillar said.
If the plan is implemented, it would further leverage excavator production in Japan to serve increasing demand in China and across Asia, the company added.
"The study is based on the current analysis of where the global excavator market is heading and how Caterpillar should position itself for continued leadership in the excavator industry," Gary Stampanato, vice president of Caterpillar's excavation division, said.
The equipment maker produces only two excavator models at its Aurora, Ill., factory, which also makes wheel loaders, soil and landfill compactors, wheel dozers and components. The company also makes excavators in Belgium, Brazil, China, France, Indonesia, Japan and Russia.
If the decision goes forward, a new U.S. factory would manufacture the two models now made in Aurora, along with several additional models now produced in Japan and exported back to the United States, the company said.
Calling the excavator business highly competitive on a global level, Stampanato said "it is imperative for Caterpillar to refine its excavator manufacturing strategy so it can provide customers with equipment that will make them more productive and profitable."
A new U.S. factory would be the primary North American source for excavators, he said, while Caterpillar's Akashi, Japan, excavator facility would have capacity freed up to fill increased orders from customers in the rapidly growing Asia-Pacific region. That region's growth is strong enough to consider boosting capacity at the Japanese plant as well, he added.
Caterpillar didn't indicate when it would make a final decision based on the study, nor did it identify any sites it is considering to locate a new U.S. plant.
The company recorded a profit of $895 million in 2009, down 74.8 percent from $3.56 billion in 2008 on revenue that fell 36.9 percent to $32.4 billion from $51.32 billion.
Caterpillar projected its 2010 revenue would rise 10 to 25 percent from 2009, based in part on a marked increase in demand for mining equipment, the result of "continued strong commodity prices and growing confidence in economic recovery," Jim Owens, chairman and chief executive officer, said in late January.
"We're encouraged by signs of improving demand. Dealer sales to end-users are up, order rates are up, dealer inventories came down in 2009, and we're seeing stronger service parts sales," he said, adding that the company began increasing production levels in the first quarter and recalled more than 500 previously laid-off production workers.

Hopefully someone can give me an answer once and for all.
My fiancee and I have now both applied for our LTCF in the state of Pennsylviania as we are both residents here. I understand most if not all of the carry laws and reprocity issues with the states around me.
My soon to be wife works in NJ however. I know she cant carry in NJ because of their laws, so what would she have to do if she had her firearm on her?
I am thinking a lock box in the truck (between or under the front seats) for the pistol and put the clip in the glove box. What if she added to this a lock through the slide and magazine well is her idea.
Anyone???? :confused:

If you have been following the gossip about the Duchess of Cambridge, you know that pregnancy stories have filled the royal news. What Prince William royally denied today was reported here first in February, "Kate Middleton news: The truth about her pregnancy gossip." This is from today's headlines on Mar. 17, 2014 in which Hollybaby said that "Prince William Reveals the Truth Behind Kate's New Pregnancy rumors" and Entertainmentwise reported "Duchess of Cambridge: Prince William Reveals When To Expect Another Royal Baby."
As I reported in February in "Kate Middleton pregnancy news: Bookies betting on a 2015," it was time to put the pregnancy rumors to rest since there is no baby brother or sister on the way for little Prince George.
How the fictitious gossip started
The rumors started with an alleged family feud over who would take over the monarchy. It supposedly triggered Prince William to begin pushing Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, to have another baby so as to convince the Queen to choose them over his father and Camilla Parker-Bowles.
But it became increasingly clear that there was no baby on the way. Here are two other stories you may have missed regarding the next royal baby:
- Kate Middleton news: Love trip with Prince William amid twins
- Prince squashes pregnancy gossip as Kate Middleton stuns in green
Reporting primarily in Celebrity Love & Marriage Examiner
If you are not subscribed, you may have missed all of the royal news including Pippa Middleton: How her bridesmaid bum and Prince Harry made news as well as these and other stories:

- Bradley Cooper with Suki: From BAFTAs to catwalk, he's so in love

If you've ever dabbled in the creation of crazy sound effects for home movies, other-worldly audio to complement the battle sequences in a new alien gaming app or strange new loops for digital dance music, you quickly start to appreciate just what a complicated process sound design can be. What with noise generation, pulse and velocity modulation, parallel and series filters, and various other filters, oscillators and envelopes to contend with, the process can hardly be described as fun. A new sample-based synthesizer suite from iZotope seeks to change all that. Both a powerful tool for design pros and an enjoyable and easy way for newbies to dive in and experiment, Iris allows users to manipulate, tweak and layer sounds using the kind of visual editing tools you might find in graphic design packages and discover otherwise hidden sonic treasures.Read More

All things Mother Earth Living
by Robyn Griggs Lawrence, Editor at Large
green living
I'm sitting on the deck of my room at the Northern Queen Inn in Nevada City, California, on a gorgeous spring day. I'm loving the sound of the waterfall and stream just below this deck, but I'm having a hard time focusing on it as there's a highway just above us. I'd love it if the sound of running water were enough to drown out the speeding trucks and cars, but it seems to be my nature to focus on the annoying noise instead of the soothing.
This same thing happened to me as I caught up on all my reading during the recent snowy weekend back home in Boulder. First I read an article in my favorite newsweekly, The Week titled "Why Green has Gone Out of Fashion." The article cited a bunch of publications, from USA Today to The Economist, that have picked up on Michael Shellenberger and Ted Norhaus's controversial paper, "The Death of Environmentalism," which declares the movement as it stands irrelevant.
I had just finished reading one of the articles cited in The Week's recap, "The Environment's New Bling," in the Boston Globe. And while the author, Grist.org editor Chip Giller, did start out by deriding the environmental movement's "Chicken Little scare tactics and doomsday prophesying," he went on to point out that "when we turn away from the D.C.-centric public face of the environmental movement, a very different picture emerges." Yuppies are walking and taking public transit in dense urban neighborhoods, buying shares in Community Supported Agriculture, and trading in SUVs for minis and Priuses. Giller goes on to declare sustainability the new bling, the new self-reliance, the new dream, the new bottom line. "Environmentalism as a narrowly focused D.C. lobby might be struggling," he concludes, "but a common-sense conviction that sustainability is integral to our quality of life and our economic competitiveness is on the rise."
Amen. And you know, with just a slight change in perspective I'm finding it pretty easy to focus on the sound of that waterfall.

Two Great Linus Quotes
By jimgris-Oracle on Nov 26, 2007
And not only do we tend to support many different models of virtualization, but one telling detail may be that I am personally so totally uninterested in it, that I am really happy that I have almost nothing to do with any of them.
And I mention that as a strong point of open source! Why? Because it actually is a great example of what open source results in: one person's (or company's) particular interests don't end up being dominant. The fact that I personally think that virtualization isn't all that exciting means next to nothing.
But in the end, a lot of this is just a huge amount of individually small changes that may not be even interesting on their own - what is then really stunning is how big a difference all those small not-so-interesting changes make when you put them all together.
In other words, I'm a huge believer in the "99 % perspiration, 1% inspiration" rule. It's a lot of hard -- but happily, mostly interesting -- work, and there is seldom, if ever, any single big silver bullet.
Even though I took these two quotes out of the context of the original
article, they illustrate two points I agree with: (1) one
person or company shouldn't control the entire community, and (2) the
real value of community development comes over the long term and
results from many small contributions, not one big one. To me, these
are two issues facing the OpenSolaris community right now. The small
things matter a lot. They add up. And I think we miss that many times
because we are too focused on "Sun" in the community on the one hand
and the so-called "lack of leadership" on the other. There are no
silver bullets for OpenSolaris. And there's nothing to replace the
perspiration of doing the hard -- but interesting -- work.

Compare today's approach to menopause to that of the mid-1990s era when the emphasis spotlighted conventional HRT.Back in 1995-1996 no one in Sacramento or San Diego, the two cities of our family's living quarters, thought of treating menopause by prescribing vitamin K-2 (MK-7) from natto and vitamin D3 along with adequate magnesium and a little calcium to stop bone loss and help prevent arteries from calcifying. No one mentioned the DHA and EPA in cod liver oil to reduce triglycerides. And no one told women over age 50 to take ubiquinone, the reduced form of COQ10 (that's absorbed better by older adults). Too many people broadcast menopause meltdown media stories compared to menopause exercises and menu choices.
No one suggested lowering cholesterol by reducing inflammation. And only athletes knew about d-ribose for muscle energy and special grape seed extracts to relax blood vessels. All doctors wanted to prescribe was estrogen from horse urine and synthetic progestin. If you strayed from Premarin and Progestin, you were scolded by your HMO doctor. Then you found an alternative practitioner who'd fill you up on soy products.
Neither product worked well in this corner. The next step: Internet databases, searches, newsletters, and fact sheets for nutrients, supplements, or herbs. Which worked? Which could be validated as safe? But in 1995, primarily journalists and computer industry workers knew the medical side of the Internet. In April, the Netscape browser helped.
Back then, you went into menopause, and, if you questioned your HMO, you were prescribed the drug of the decade. At that time, the Internet began to list incredible research databases for alternative healing tools, whole foods, nutrients, and supplements.
Supplements and menopause
See the supplements aisles, for example at Sacramento Natural Foods, Whole Foods Market, Elliot's Natural Foods, General Nutrition Center (GNC), or Sacramento, Roseville, and Auburn health food stores such as Sunrise Natural Foods, where there's a wide choice of various herbs, vitamins, minerals, and other nutritional products of interest to anyone going through menopause. Also check out the various herbal remedies on shelves at the various natural foods sections of supermarkets and organic food sections or stores in Sacramento.
This captivated audience represents a huge market for makers of hormones, vitamins, and other specialty products, much of which is advertised on the Web. So a wealth of information has appeared on the Internet to meet the needs of the 38- to 55-year-olds undergoing menopause, as well as younger women with PMS, infertility, and contraception concerns.
Searching online for menopause solutions now can be a journey of linking connections
Have treatments changed that much? Or are they still pretty much the same? In 1995, menopause treatments focused on conventional medical drugs. Today, you have more choices from identical biological hormone therapies to nutrition and supplement changes adjusted to the menopausal woman's issues surrounding carbohydrates.
You may not be able to digest carbs as well as when you were younger. Through the medical resources on the Internet, you can obtain information your doctor hasn't got time to give you, and talk to people who share your problems.
Back in 1995, when I went through menopause, I had to back away from conventional medicine as the Premarin and Progestin I had been told to take by my primary care HMO doctor (for a 10-month stretch) revealed tests that had been worse than before I took anything for menopause. So I stopped prescribed drugs specifically for menopause. And my normal test results returned to what they were before I had begun to take anything for menopause.
The decision to walk away from conventional medical treatments for menopause were reflected in my article, published in Internet World magazine, back in Februrary,1996 when the Internet's infancy became a new source for seeking medical alternative solutions to menopause questions.
I had found back in 1995, when I already was in my middle fifties, that doctors don't always have the time or breadth of knowledge to discuss alternative, customized solutions to a family's healthcare needs. You know the old cliche: the more things change, the more they stay the same. But today, there really are more alternatives online. And you need evidence that validates what's out there.
To find alternatives that work well and are safe (by validated evidence) is why I turned to the Internet when it had been so new that medical alternative information about menopause had just begun to surface. Not as many women then as today were going through menopause because we were seven or eight years before the baby boomer's began to reach fifty.
Fourteen years later, it's not menopause issues I'm searching for, but healthy, whole and raw food recipes--living foods--and information about supplements with a preventive inclination. The Internet resources are great for searching preventive and personalized medicine and nutritional alternatives remedies focused on prevention and balancing what's unbalanced in nutrition.
After searching the Net for Web sites, support groups, or little-known health newsletters, I found dozens of physicians trained in both medicine and naturopathy who offered to give me answers to my specific questions via e-mail. The Internet's use as a resource for information appeared to become a healing tool. After finding alternative solutions back in 1995, I took the resources to the media and joined the American Medical Writers Association where I had access to resources online that could show me more possibilities on getting through menopause and getting questions answered.
Each member of my family required a different healthcare service and support group to address their particular problems. In my case, I am allergic to synthetic progestin, which eases the side effects of menopause. At the health-maintenance organization (HMO) to which I am a member, I asked my doctor for natural, yam-derived progesterone.
He refused to prescribe it because he said it wasn't yet approved by the FDA, which left me with not too many conventional alternatives to prevent osteoporosis. Instead I was put on hormone-replacement therapy, which involved back then taking oral estrogen and synthetic progestin for ten months (before I stopped taking any conventional medicine for menopause). I believed that the oral horse-urine derived estrogen was raising my blood pressure sky high. When I mentioned this to my doctor's nurse, she snapped, "Prove it."
So I set off on my journey to prove it. First I checked the alt.support.menopause newsgroup, now listed as one of numerous Google discussion support groups, which was extremely helpful. I posted the following question: Is anyone else using a high soy and vegetarian diet, the herb black cohosh, and natural, yam-derived, progesterone cream for menopause--to help prevent bone loss--instead of the usual estrogen and progestin? If so, what are your comments and experiences?
The replies were practical, useful, and factual, providing medical references, titles of medical journal articles, and book bibliographies, as well as personal experiences and encouragement. For example, one person pointed me to an article entitled "Risks of Estrogens and Progestogens" in the December 1990 issue of Maturitas, an English-language European medical journal.
The author, Dr. Marc L'Hermite, found that five to seven percent of women on conjugated equine estrogens could get severe high blood pressure and that they would return to normal when the hormone-replacement therapy was withdrawn. A bibliographic reference to this article also appeared in Dr. Lonnie Barbach's book, The Pause. Not one physician at my HMO had mentioned these concerns.
To obtain more information about what alternative health solutions were available and how particular products would change my body or health, I searched the Web under the keywords "menopause," "alternative healthcare," "herbs," "homeopathy," and "naturopathy." I also looked under "natural progesterone."
Through this search I found the MenoTimes, a quarterly journal published in San Rafael, California in 1996 and still online today. I subscribed back then because it had the information I sought on Dr. John Lee's book, Natural Progesterone: The Multiple Roles of a Remarkable Hormone. But later I found out, the wild-yam-derived progesterone cream I ordered online and used daily over-stimulated my thyroid, and I had to resort to nutritional supplements and whole foods instead of trying to balance my menopausal issues with hormones. Also online today and also online in 1996 is the up-to-date Women's Health Hotline.
At a holistic health convention I attended in the mid-1990s, foods emphasized back then had been soy along with lots of vitamin B complex. So after eating too much soy such as tofu, tempeh, and drinking gallons of soy milk, my thyroid again had been overstimulated by too much vitamin B and soy, plus the progesterone cream, and I had to stop eating that way and stop the topical creams. The physicians I met at that conference emphasized using estrogen to what they thought back then would protect us all against heart disease and bone loss.
Little did they know that later studies would be published in medical journals showing that taking what I had been prescribed in 1995, Premarin and Progestin, would not protect against what they thought it would, at least not for a lot of women. After 10 months of taking daily Premarin and Progestin, my medical tests scores looked worse than what they were before I started making any changes to my regimen of natural whole foods and a basic multi-vitamin.
I had been told to take 1,500 mg. of calcium daily but only a small amount of magnesium. That had been wrong for my body's needs. What worked much better, I eventually found out, had been multiple ionic minerals, especially a tablespoon of magnesium citrate powder, and far less calcium.
I didn't have any remarkable menopausal symptoms, but all the lectures I'd gone to held at university medical centers kept pushing synthetic hormone replacement therapy at me as if it were the one size fits all solution for everyone going through the changes. I never understood why my HMO doctor insisted, "If you go off of estrogen and progestin, it will be like a diabetic going off of insulin."
Why did he tell me that? My menopause had not been due to a deficiency of synthetic progestin or estrogen from horse urine. And when I mentioned natural, bio-identical hormones, my doctor snapped, "It's not approved by the FDA, and this HMO doesn't use it." Was I trapped by the insurance for the specific HMO provided by my husband's employer? Or could I research alternative nutrition for menopause on my own?
Also through my search I found a laboratory that would test my saliva and tell me whether my hormones were balanced. Most of all, I wanted to know how taking natural progesterone would affect my fast thyroid and adrenaline-drenched body, with its low blood sugar and excess insulin production. My HMO physicians did not answer these questions, but told me that going off conjugated equine estrogen and synthetic progestin was like a diabetic going off insulin.
On the Net I found physicians who answered my letters, labs that sold natural progesterone cream that I could use to prevent bone loss after menopause, and other labs that could monitor my condition until I found a doctor in my community who would listen to alternative solutions to menopausal questions. It's amazing how many medical sites that contained excellent answers to questions about menopause or other health issues that had been active in February 1996 and that are still online and current today.
I found the Menopause Matters site very helpful. There are Menopause mailing lists. The "black cohosh" that I mentioned in my letter to the alt.support.menopause newsgroup is an estrogenic herb and vasodilator, and I wanted to find out how safe it was and whether it was as good for menopause as the homeopaths and naturopaths claimed, as well as how much to use and what effects it would have. I found the alt. folklore.herbs newsgroup helpful, as well as articles by Anthony Brook entitled "Why Herbs?" and "Historic Uses of Herbs" at the Drum Holistic Herbs page. Today, view the many links on the Discover Health & Wealth herbs site.
I wanted to find out everything I could about natural progesterone. So back in late 1995 and early 1996, I went to the Health and Science page at Polaris Network (not online now), which described itself as "A Guide to Understanding and Controlling PMS, Fertility, Menopause, and Osteoporosis."
It contained information about natural progesterone and how it balances the side effects of unopposed estrogen, how it's required for proper thyroid function and progestin counterparts in the drug industry. There's no site online today with this name that I could find. Polaris Network today is listed as an IT technology company. You might search today under Web MD.
It also offered a seemingly sound scientific and unbiased evaluation of how certain hormones affect the system, what the hormone's results are on various bodily functions, and side effects. And it had an excellent bibliography of books and medical journal articles on osteoporosis reversal using natural progesterone.
I wanted to query a physician about the high blood pressure resulting from the equine oral estrogen I was taking, and at the Atlanta Reproductive Health Centre page I had been able to send e-mail to a doctor who answered my question quickly, providing information that I could consider when making my final decisions or in looking further. His answer was more to the point than the counseling I had received from my own physician. The same site with more links and current information is still running online to provide you with accurate information in areas of womens health.
Another doctor of mine had wanted to give me high blood pressure medicine on top of the estrogen and synthetic progestin. I asked him to consider the alternative--taking me off the hormones to see whether a low-salt diet and exercise could change things--because before I went on hormones my blood pressure wasn't high.
The Internet became one of my best alternative healthcare information resources after the last of three reproductive endocrinologists I saw (not affiliated with my HMO) told me to wait two months to see how I felt off the hormones.
Another resource I found informative was the Women's Health Hot Line newsletter. Its topics include infertility, endometriosis, contraception, sexually transmitted diseases, stress, menopause, and PMS. Most of all, it doesn't close its pages to alternative therapies for women who can't tolerate standard hormone replacement therapy.
Hernia Hunt
The year 1996 had been the time when my husband needed hernia repair surgery, but his busy HMO surgeon spent only a very short time briefing him a month before his surgery. Because it would take hours to describe in detail what is done during hernia repair surgery, he searched on the topic using Web search engines, which yielded a list of information about all kinds of hernias. The most thorough site discovered was the Hernia Information Home Page in England.
It included articles that explained such things as the benefits of using mesh rather than stitches to close incisions. Information about hiatal hernias and diaphragmatic hernias could be found at the Collaborative Hypertext of Radiology. There was more information about hernias on the Net than my husband could possibly find time to read.
After seeing shark cartilage in many health food stores, my husband asked his surgeon about its ability to aid in faster wound-healing. The surgeon laughed, yet I found several references to articles discussing shark cartilage on the Internet. Some medical journal articles on the healing and other properties and uses of shark cartilage can be found on the Simone Protective Pharmaceuticals page. Also at the site I found health-style questionnaires, in-depth descriptions of a variety of nutrient products, and how each product affects the body. You'll also find information about where to order or buy shark cartilage from pharmacists.
Search Tips
From the many healthcare sites I visited, my three-ring binder is packed with more than 500 pages of answers to questions. Productive keyword searches can be made using terms such as "alternative health," "healthcare," "medical," "medicine," "nurses," "nutrition," "pharmacy," "physicians," and "smart drugs." I found the search word "healthcare" to be more specific for asking personal medical questions than trying to search under the word "health."
Some sites are best reached through links on dedicated healthcare Web pages. For example, Subhas Roy had in 1996 created a page online with links to 25 other Internet health sites at Health Info. Today, the key words, "health information," brings up numerous sites, including the Health Information site at the US National Institutes of Health.
There also is a large collection of links at the Internet Medical and Mental Health Resources page. It's maintained by Jeanine Wade, Ph.D., a licensed psychologist in Austin, Texas. One particularly comprehensive directory of health and medical sites on the Web is MedWeb, which lists Web sites and mailing lists in 70 categories, from AIDS to toxicology.
One of the best medical referral Web sites I found in 1996 that is not online currently with medical information, had been Richard C. Bowyer's page that had links to U.S. hospitals, medical resources, medical journals, medical schools, medical students, medicolegal resources, oncology, pathology, and different surgical disciplines, such as plastic surgery, general surgery, laparoscopic surgery, and telesurgery. Healthcare workers of all specializations also could find job opportunities on some of these sites. Today, pages put up by individuals like Bowyer's page have been replaced with sites such as Medline. Current Bowyer's pages online focus more on genealogy.
My son, a physician practicing neuroradiology, is interested in Medline, a collection of medical and scientific reports used by physicians, articles on the educational needs of physicians and the public, physicians' supplies, prescriptions, and advice by pharmacists about drugs. Clinical cancer information that is intended for physicians is useful to patients as well. There is a listing of surgeons according to the types of surgery they perform, the notes of the Physician Reliance Network, and a Gopher menu of physicians listed according to their specialty.
As for informative newsletters available on the Net, I highly recommend the University of California at Berkeley Wellness Letter at the Electronic Newsstand. It contains the latest news of preventive medicine and practical advice--including information on nutrition, weight control, self-care, prevention of cancer and heart disease, exercise, and dental care.
As a medical journalist, I found the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) to be a reliable resource. If you are looking for a description of a particular drug, the Physician's GenRx Web site provides a database of drugs you can search. You must register first.In seeking answers to my health questions, I found the Internet to be a valuable source for a wide range of healthcare information. I'm sure your efforts will be rewarded, too.
A woman can beat middle-aged spread, her disease risks, and her hot flashes with the help of her healthcare provider
And even a short term program can spell success for women and fit into a busy provider's practice, shows a demonstration obesity-fighting and health risk reduction program detailed in an article just published online in Menopause, the journal of The North American Menopause Society (NAMS). The new can-do plan gets women trimmer, healthier, and cuts hot flashes with a new program that shows potential to fit into today's healthcare environment. See the study's abstract, "Clinical intervention to reduce central obesity and menopausal symptoms in women aged 35 to 55 years."
Making lifestyle changes can take a lot of work. Programs that have successfully helped women lose weight and reduce their other heart disease risks have been long and intensive—and they work as long as the program goes on. Most first-line women's healthcare providers, such as obstetrician-gynecologists or primary care providers, don't have the time and might not be reimbursed for so many consultations. You also may be interested in the abstract of a study, "Whole-body vibration exercise training reduces arterial stiffness in postmenopausal women with prehypertension and hypertension."
This pilot program, called WAIPointes (WAI stands for "who am I"), took only five visits that all were reimbursed by insurance
And it kept the participants engaged in achieving their health goals by showing them that they could reduce their menopause symptoms, in addition to their long-term disease risks, with healthy lifestyle changes. The 83 women who completed the 6-month program ranged from 35 to 55 years old, and most were in perimenopause or menopause. At an orientation, the women learned about menopause and the health risks that come with it and were told they have the opportunity to get their personal health risks assessed if they joined the program.
At the first visit, they answered questionnaires and got assessments of body weight and fat and menopause status and went home with a pedometer and a health diary, educational materials, and goal-setting worksheets to develop their personal health goals. From the second to the fifth visit, each woman had health assessments including waist measurement, blood pressure, menopause symptoms, mammograms and bone density tests if needed, and blood tests to look for inflammation, high cholesterol, and diabetes.
Once a woman had her goals set, she discussed with the healthcare providers how to reach those goals, what obstacles stood in the way, and how to overcome them
If distressing menopause symptoms were obstacles, the providers offered the women treatment options, such as lifestyle modifications or medications, to overcome them. "Empowerment through education is a cornerstone of our intervention," wrote the authors, according to the February 13, 2014 news release, "Can-do plan gets women trimmer, healthier, and cuts hot flashes."
Their surveys of the participants and the health assessments showed that approach was working. By the end of the program, the women understood their health risks better, and they had already made significant progress toward achieving their health goals.
They trimmed their waistlines by an average of an inch and a half and lowered their diastolic blood pressure by 2 points. What's more, their hot flashes and other menopause symptoms, such as energy, libido, mood, and vaginal dryness, had all improved significantly. And each woman had a "life action plan," with personalized recommendations, to continue working toward their health goals.
You also may wish to check out the abstract of another study, "Mood disorders in midlife women: understanding the critical window and its clinical implications." Founded in 1989, The North American Menopause Society (NAMS) is North America's leading nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting the health and quality of life of all women during midlife and beyond through an understanding of menopause and healthy aging.
Its multidisciplinary membership of 2,000 leaders in the field—including clinical and basic science experts from medicine, nursing, sociology, psychology, nutrition, anthropology, epidemiology, pharmacy, and education—makes NAMS uniquely qualified to serve as the definitive resource for health professionals and the public for accurate, unbiased information about menopause and healthy aging.

Did menopause arise because men prefer younger women?
Local Sacramento and Davis University of California, Davis researcher, Cedric Puleston, who was not involved in the new menopause evolution research but coauthored a 2007 paper in PLOS ONE that examined the role of fathers in the evolution of extended human lifespans, told the Los Angeles Times that the latest study on men being the cause of women's menopause over time, in evolutionary terms was "really compelling," if not the last word on the evolutionary history of menopause, according to the article, "Did menopause arise because men prefer younger women?"
After decades of laboring under other theories that never seemed to add up, a team led by biologist Rama Singh has concluded that what causes menopause in women is men. Menopause is actually an unintended outcome of natural selection generated by men's historical preference for younger mates, the researchers of a new study report.
Even the word 'menopause' evokes a connotation, men pause before seeking a mate their own age or older, perhaps because nature programs or 'wires' humans for choosing the most fertile and hormone-balanced mates, preferably picking the one who's ovulating, at least by looking at the facial and body signs of peak fertility and health.
Rama Singh, an evolutionary geneticist, backed by computer models developed by colleagues Jonathan Stone and Richard Morton, has determined that menopause is actually an unintended outcome of natural selection – the result of its effects having become relaxed in older women
Over time, human males have shown a preference for younger women in selecting mates, stacking the Darwinian deck against continued fertility in older women, the researchers have found. "In a sense it is like aging, but it is different because it is an all-or-nothing process that has been accelerated because of preferential mating," says Singh, in a June 13, 2013 news release, "Researchers conclude that what causes menopause is -- wait for it -- men." Singh is a professor in McMaster University Department of Biology whose research specialties include the evolution of human diversity. Stone is an associate professor in the Department of Biology and associate director of McMaster's Origins Institute, whose themes include the origins of humanity, while Morton is a professor emeritus in Biology.
While conventional thinking has held that menopause prevents older women from continuing to reproduce, in fact, the researchers' new theory says it is the lack of reproduction that has given rise to menopause.
The scientist's work appears in the online, open-access journal PLOS Computational Biology. See the study or its abstract, "PLOS Computational Biology: Mate Choice and the Origin of Menopause."
Menopause is believed to be unique to humans, but no one had yet been able to offer a satisfactory explanation for why it occurs, Singh says
The prevailing "grandmother theory" holds that women have evolved to become infertile after a certain age to allow them to assist with rearing grandchildren, thus improving the survival of kin. Singh says that does not add up from an evolutionary perspective.
"How do you evolve infertility? It is contrary to the whole notion of natural selection. Natural selection selects for fertility, for reproduction -- not for stopping it," he says in the news release, "Researchers conclude that what causes menopause is -- wait for it -- men."
The new theory holds that, over time, competition among men of all ages for younger mates has left older females with much less chance of reproducing
The forces of natural selection, Singh says, are concerned only with the survival of the species through individual fitness, so they protect fertility in women while they are most likely to reproduce. After that period, natural selection ceases to quell the genetic mutations that ultimately bring on menopause, leaving women not only infertile, but also vulnerable to a host of health problems.
"This theory says that natural selection doesn't have to do anything," Singh says in the news release. "If women were reproducing all along, and there were no preference against older women, women would be reproducing like men are for their whole lives."
The development of menopause, then, was not a change that improved the survival of the species, but one that merely recognized that fertility did not serve any ongoing purpose beyond a certain age
For the vast majority of other animals, fertility continues until death, Singh explains, but women continue to live past their fertility because men remain fertile throughout their lives, and longevity is not inherited by gender. Singh points out that if women had historically been the ones to select younger mates, the situation would have been reversed, with men losing fertility.
The consequence of menopause, however, is not only lost fertility for women, but an increased risk of illness and death that arises with hormonal changes that occur with menopause. Singh says a benefit of the new research could be to suggest that if menopause developed over time, that ultimately it could also be reversed.

BOWLING GREEN, Ky (WBKO) -- Brandon Bradshaw's widow, Heidi Bradshaw, filed a wrongful death suit in late February. This was one year after her husband was shot three times by former court security officer, Tommy Brown.
In the civil suit, Bradshaw's attorney, Gary Logsdon, named Brown, Warren County Sheriffs Department., Bowling Green Police, Kentucky State Police Post Three and Medical Center EMS.
On the one year anniversary of Bradshaw's death, Heidi Bradshaw's attorney filed the wrongful death claim with the U.S. District Court.
On Tuesday, a response was filed to this lawsuit.
In the response, Tommy Brown's attorney, Paul Lawless, argues that Brown was not the aggressor in the incident and acted in self defense. After reaching out for comment today, Lawless respectfully declined.
Attorney Wesley Milliken represents Sheriff Gaines and Major Randy Hargis and says his review of the case is consistent with attorney, Paul Lawless's.
"That, in fact, he was acting in self defense as a private citizen. Which of course, under Kentucky law, you are entitled to act in self defense if you have a reasonable belief that your life is in danger," said Wesley Milliken, Attorney at Law.
Naming Sheriff Gaines and Major Hargis in this case does not mean the plaintiff believes the two were involved at the time of the shooting.
"The way a plaintiff attempts to make out a claim against a supervisor or individual is to allege that somehow there was improper training or something that amounted to a deliberate indifference," said Wesley Milliken, Attorney at Law.
Milliken also says the Sheriff's Department cooperated fully with the investigation and the results were presented to the Warren County grand jury.
"Once all of those facts come to light, it will be clear that this was an unfortunate situation between two private individuals. Pursuant to the applicable law, the Sheriff's Department does not have liability in this case," said Wesley Milliken, Attorney at Law.
Attorney Aaron Smith responded on behalf of the Medical Center, in the documents filed Tuesday. He argues that Brandon Bradshaw was "negligent in failing to exercise ordinary care for (his) own safety."
Heidi Bradshaw's attorney respectfully declined commenting.

It's another live eviction on tonight's "Big Brother," and it could be the end of the road for blonde beauty Nicole Franzel. The 22-year-old nursing school grad seems poised to be the next person evicted on the CBS summertime reality show.
On the Aug. 13 episode of "Big Brother," Franzel was blindsided when her former BFF Christine Brecht put her on the chopping block. Brecht was forced to put up a replacement nominee following Zach's Rance's Power of Veto win. With Franzel up against popular houseguest Donny Thompson, it looks to be the perfect backdoor opportunity.
On Wednesday, Celebrity Dirty Laundry revealed that the live feeds indicate that Franzel will be going home. While she's apparently made several campaign attempts to stay in the house, only Zach seemed interested in working with her.
Franzel's three Head of Household wins and her showmance with jury member Hayden Voss seem to have hurt her. Puppet master Derrick Levasseur, who is clearly running the "BB" house this year, has already said Donny is the lesser of two evils. The 42-year old maintenance worker has won three Power of Veto competitions, but only one HOH.
The spoiler site Big Brother Network revealed that Zach told Nicole that the rest of the houseguests think she's the biggest liar in the house and she has now threatened to "blow up" the game. This could likely occur before her final plea to stay in the house, which will probably be more of a goodbye spiel.
Of course, this is "Big Brother" and, as colorful houseguest Frankie Grande pointed out last week, "everybody lies" in "Big Brother." But longtime fans of the show also know that it's not over until it's over. Anything can happen before tonight's live vote, and Donny's popularity could end up making him a target as the remaining houseguests decide if he'd hurt their chances of taking home the $500,000 "Big Brother" grand prize.
The live eviction episode of "Big Brother 16" airs on Aug. 14 at 9 p.m. ET on CBS.

When Eminem promised a return to rap for his upcoming MMLP2, a Beastie Boys soundalike was maybe not what everyone was expecting. But that's what we get on "Berzerk," the album's first single, and it's honestly not as bad as it sounds on paper? Maybe it's the Billy Squier sample, or the rest of Rick Rubin's thundering production, but we're kind of digging it. Lyrically, though, it's a bit of a wash—Em's mile-a-minute flow is impressive as always, but it's 2013 and his K-Fed disses are at least six years out of date. Comforting to know that even Eminem would grow up to embarrass his children with outdated pop-culture references.
Listen to "Berzerk" below. MMLP2is coming November 8.

We might get mocked a bit for donning Bacon, Eggs and Toast With Butter Scarf, ($38), but we can legitimately say it's not cheesy... nor will we get egg on our faces! (Ha) Unfortunately, this scarf is actually hand-crocheted from yarn, so you can't just nip off a piece if you're feeling peckish, but at least the sunny yellow egg yolks and butter pats will make you smile. And if you're in the mood for food (clothing), check out the rest of KellyzKreationz's wares, like cupcake and watermelon scarves. Tasty!
OMG! This is SOOO cute - as is everything she has! Very hard to make crochet look like anything other than 'shit' to cover your toilet paper roll ('shit'.....get it?) :)(:

How the Dollar Has Been Weakened by a Contracting Yield Curve
Andrew Sachais
The US dollar has been the main victim of weak economic data.
Poor US economic data has been the main deterrent to rising interest rates this year. Last Friday, data showed that US nonfarm payrolls grew by 288,000 jobs in April, the biggest increase since January 2012. Meanwhile, the jobless rate dropped to a five-year low of 6.3%. The headline labor-market numbers looked great, but beneath the surface, the civilian participation rate had economists worried.
The labor force declined by 806,000 workers in April, the fourth-largest decline since the Department of Labor began recording the statistic in 1948. Due to mixed results in the labor force and distorted data from winter storms in the first quarter, analysts doubt the Federal Reserve is in a hurry to raise benchmark rates. Although economic growth is expected to pick up in the second quarter, many still believe that underlying weakness is weighing on the health of the economy.
Last December, the Fed began cutting its $85-billion-a-month stimulus program, which led many to think the central bank was ready to tighten policy. The new view, however, is that the Fed hopes to trim the size of its balance sheet without cutting off economic expansion. The current pace of stimulus cuts indicates that the central bank's bond purchases program will end this fall, but it's still uncertain when and if benchmark rates will rise in 2015.
The new view on monetary policy is reflected in the US Treasury yield curve, shown below. The indicator is represented by the ratio of
iShares Barclays 1-3 Year Treasury Bond Fund
(NYSEARCA:SHY) over
iShares Barclays 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF
(NYSEARCA:TLT). When the indicator falls, it signals that the yield curve is contracting. The curve fell sharply in 2014, just after the Fed announced it was beginning to cut its stimulus program. The move seems counterintuitive, considering the indicator spiked higher in 2013 due to the fear the Fed would, in fact, cut its stimulus program. The decline, however, can be attributed to the market's realization that although the Fed was cutting stimulus, the current economic environment wasn't signaling that inflation was going to be an issue in the near future, thus there would be no need to aggressively raise interest rates.
The yield curve has been steadily trending downward throughout 2014 and is the main reason for weakness in the US dollar this year. The dollar is represented by
PowerShares DB US Dollar Index Bullish
(NYSEARCA:UUP) in the chart below. The dollar slid to its lowest level in two years on Tuesday as the currency's poor performance has led many traders to back off long bets that were all the rage in January. There's simply a lack of conviction among traders who believe that the Fed, whatever the economic data, will follow up the end of its money-printing with an actual rise in interest rates.
In 2014,
Guggenheim CurrencyShares Australian
(NYSEARCA:FXA) and
Guggenheim CurrencyShares Euro Trust
(NYSEARCA:FXE) have been outperformers as their US counterpart has fallen. Although there has been geopolitical strife across the world, the positive correlation between the dollar and Treasuries during times of market anxiety hasn't held as strong as it did in 2013. Investors have put money into long-dated Treasuries, but the end of Fed stimulus seems to have severed the tie between that correlation. Now investors push money into the euro and long-dated US Treasuries as a safe-haven investment strategy. There's little reason to believe the US dollar will garner strength in the near future, which means the euro, Aussie, and Treasuries should remain attractive investment vehicles.

Do You Know How Much Damage Obamacare is Doing to America?
It's tough to get a grasp of it, because it affects every aspect of the American economy
What will America look like after Obamacare is more fully implemented, following this fall's election?
Writing at RealClearPolicy, Hadley Heath and Heather Higgins argue:
"Among these consequences are reduced freedom, liberty, and choice, higher taxes, greater debt, higher health insurance costs, higher cost of employment, more government regulations, fewer options, less innovation, lower quality care, and ultimately fewer lives saved. Having your choices be dictated, and having none of them be choices you want, is no choice at all."
What's worse: Most Americans are completely unaware of what's in Obamacare. They can't be faulted for that. Many of those who voted for the gigantic law haven't even read it. Who has time to read 3,000 pages of subsections and legalese?
Did you know that after "full implementation" 23 million people will still lack health coverage—nearly half the current total?
Did you know that the provision allowing adults to stay on their parents plans until age 26 has significantly raised premium costs for families? And that this provision has already cost twice as much as budgeted?
