At issue is the Benghazi attack and the belief by some on ...Read More »

Five Basic Cholera Prevention Messages
1) Drink and use safe water.*
Download PDF File
- Bottled water with unbroken seals and canned/bottled carbonated beverages are safe to drink and use.
- Use safe water to brush your teeth, wash and prepare food, and to make ice.
- Clean food preparation areas and kitchenware with soap and safe water and let dry completely before reuse.
*Piped water sources, drinks sold in cups or bags, or ice may not be safe and should be boiled or treated with chlorine.
To be sure water is safe to drink and use:
- Boil it or treat it with a chlorine product or household bleach.
- If boiling, bring your water to a complete boil for at least 1 minute.
- To treat your water with chlorine, use one of the locally available treatment products such as Aquatabs®, Dlo Lavi, or PuR® and follow the instructions.
- If a chlorine treatment product is not available, you can treat your water with household bleach. Add 8 drops of household bleach for every 1 gallon of water (or 2 drops of household bleach for every 1 liter of water) and wait 30 minutes before drinking.
- Always store your treated water in a clean, covered container.
2) Wash your hands often with soap and safe water.*
- Before you eat or prepare food.
- Before feeding your children.
- After using the latrine or toilet.
- After cleaning your child's bottom.
- After taking care of someone ill with diarrhea.
* If no soap is available, scrub hands often with ash or sand and rinse with safe water.
3) Use latrines or bury your feces (poop); do not defecate in any body of water.
- Use latrines or other sanitation systems, like chemical toilets, to dispose of feces.
- Wash hands with soap and safe water after defecating.
- Clean latrines and surfaces contaminated with feces using a solution of 1 part household bleach to 9 parts water.
What if I don't have a latrine or chemical toilet?
- Defecate at least 30 meters away from any body of water and then bury your feces.
- Dispose of plastic bags containing feces in latrines, at collection points if available, or bury it in the ground. Do not put plastic bags in chemical toilets.
- Dig new latrines or temporary pit toilets at least a half-meter deep and at least 30 meters away from any body of water.
4) Cook food well, keep it covered, eat it hot, and peel fruits and vegetables.*
- Boil it, Cook it, Peel it, or Leave it.
- Be sure to cook seafood, especially shellfish, until it is very hot all the way through.
* Avoid raw foods other than fruits and vegetables you have peeled yourself.
5) Clean up safely—in the kitchen and in places where the family bathes and washes clothes.
- Wash yourself, your children, diapers, and clothes, 30 meters away from drinking water sources.

For a decade, Liberty House has been a shelter from the storm.
A partnership of the local YWCA and the Lycoming County United Way, Liberty House was born a decade ago to help women in the area who, quite frankly, are in a desperate way.
Maybe it's a financial problem. Maybe it's drug addiction. Maybe it's illness without proper support from others. Maybe it's abuse of some kind. Maybe they just have nowhere to go.
Liberty House has been that port in a storm, providing a home for more than 500 women and more than 250 children over the past decade.
When the decade was celebrated at a recent event, there were tears and smiles and a recounting of stories of women putting their lives back together.
The program has been successful to the point that it operates now with a waiting list of women seeking the services.
That says the program's validation. It also, sadly, shows the growing need.
We wish continued success for the Liberty House program and hope it continues helping women in need reconstruct their lives.

Relay for Life
Relay for Life, an overnight team event that will raise funds for the American Cancer Society, is scheduled June 8-9 at the Randall High School track.
Registration will start at 4 p.m. on June 8, with the event beginning at 6 p.m. and ending at 10:30 a.m. on June 9.
Participants will walk or run around the track relay style. A survivor's lap also is planned to recognize those who have survived cancer.
A separate registration table will be provided for survivors, and they will receive a cancer survivors' T-shirt, said Jennifer Davenport, event co-chair.
"Relay for Life is as much an awareness raiser about the progress against cancer as it is a fund-raiser,'' Davenport said. "(Participants) are making a commitment to fight back against this disease and let the community know that you can beat cancer.''
A celebration reception also is planned for cancer survivors as a part of the event, she said.
The American Cancer Society is the nationwide, community-based, voluntary health organization dedicated to eliminating cancer as a major health problem by preventing cancer, saving lives and diminishing suffering through research, education, advocacy and service, a press release said.
For more information on volunteering or participating in Relay for Life, call the local American Cancer Society office at 353-4306.

IDAs are draining state, local coffers
Gov. Andrew Cuomo's proposal to limit the ability of Industrial Development Agencies to grant New York State sales tax exemptions to development projects is a good first step to rein in out-of-control IDAs. More needs to be done to fix them.
In Western New York alone, IDAs hand out tax breaks to a doughnut shop, auto dealerships, a liquor store and dollar stores and hotels – projects that do little to create new jobs and economic opportunities for the region. Such retail projects would not be eligible for state sales tax exemptions under the governor's proposal. After all, it is called industrial development for a reason.
While the proposal includes other improvements to the IDA system, including requiring approval from Regional Economic Development Councils for projects seeking state sales tax exemptions, it leaves the majority of subsidies such as property, mortgage and county sales tax to the special interests for each IDA board to hand out.
Too often, IDAs provide tax exemptions to companies that fail to create meaningful employment. Instead, they generate poverty-level jobs. This puts further strain on state and local governments to pick up their slack, which turn to area taxpayers to make up for the lost revenue from IDA deals. This leads to pressure to cut essential public services.
To stop IDAs from draining local and state coffers, the state's elected leaders should fix this failing system. Economic development agencies must be made to prioritize companies that generate family-supporting employment. Companies that fail to produce the jobs they promised should be required to give the money back. Ordinary citizens should be able to see what IDAs are doing with their tax dollars and have a voice in the process.

Dr Grant has accurately summarized the problem faced when hyperventilating a hypoventilator. During hyperventilation, what degree of ventilation as measured by the partial pressure of carbon dioxide is indicative of normal bellows and lung function? What degree of bellows weakness can be associated with hypoventilation, and what role do the hypoxic and hypercapnic respiratory drives have in that situation? Unfortunately, not every physician has the insight into the problem that Dr Grant has. The purpose of our report, "Hyperventilating the Hypoventilator," was to demonstrate that care must be used in the interpretation of hyperventilation blood gases.
As Dr Grant pointed out, one would suspect that persons with abnormal central control mechanisms and entirely normal bellows and lung functions would reduce their Pco2's to the low 20s with hyperventilation. This supposition is not documented by previous investigators. Even in the presence of severe bellows weakness, the patient in our

Faster, Higher, Stronger… Thinner?
The beach volleyball event at this summer's London Olympics will attract unsurpassed media attention and play to a capacity stadium. Tickets for the competition - despite only athletics coming with a steeper price tag - were vastly oversubscribed.
Given that just 2000 players regularly participate in the sport – compared to archery (45k) or table tennis (2.5m) – it is probably not just 'the love of the game' that will see the crowds flocking.
Cynics might conclude that the appeal lies in the scantily clad attire of its female contestants – and according to Thompson and Sherman,, who claim that sport, like wider society, exhibits and exploits the female body, the cynics are right. After all, the bodies of male beach volleyball players, who wear regular shorts and a baggy vest, manage to remain well concealed in comparison.
Although the most extreme example, beach volleyball is by no means the only sport with unwarranted male-female discrepancies in kit. Observe the differences in the athletics, the gymnastics and triathlon come July and August.
For sport psychologists this is not trivial political correctness, but a possible precursor to more sinister consequences. A focus on appearance and looking good can lead athletes to develop an unhealthy preoccupation with food and weight, dangerous disordered eating behaviours and even clinical eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa or bulimia nervosa.
Other mechanisms are at play too. Some sports, such as long-distance running, place an overemphasis on low weight for better performance. Other important factors, such as power and strength, fall by the wayside as athletes adopt a 'thin to win' ethos. There are also sports such as figure skating and gymnastics – considered 'aesthetic' in nature – that carry an accepted, though unwritten, rule that the way one looks is as relevant as the skills executed.
There are clearly abundant pressures to be thin in the sporting environment and it is no surprise that researchers have regularly found that athletes, particularly female ones, are twice as likely to get an eating disorder as the rest of us.
The sports psychologists Papathomas and Lavallee have shown that elite athletes living with an eating disorder suffer many troubling life experiences beyond the obvious symptoms of the illness. In one study, in-depth interviews were conducted with athletes who had either self-starved or engaged in regular binge-purge cycles.
A key issue was the tension between wanting to disclose the illness and a fear of what the consequences of disclosure might be. Athletes perceived great stigma in mental health issues as it contradicted the image of a mentally tough competitive sportsperson.
The identity conflict between a mentally unwell self and the athletic self can be a source of great emotional turmoil. How can I be a world-class performer if I am mentally weak?
So athletes may go on suffering alone, their burdensome secret destroying personal relationships. Help is not sought until mental and physical breaking point. Even then, eating struggles can continue long after sporting competition has ceased.
Papathomas and Lavallee consider eating disorders in sport to be more than weight worries and dangerous eating behaviours, as problematic as these things are. Eating disorders are also about shame, identity loss, and relationship struggles. They can be as emotionally scarring as they are physically and mentally.
We know that Olympians make great personal sacrifices to achieve their sporting heroics. We know that the smiles on the podium befall grimaces on the track. Athletes who live with an eating disorder however experience a different kind of suffering; one that is destructive, enduring and can even be fatal.
As you look on at the medal winners of 2012, consider what it might have taken for some to get there. There is no doubt that the London Olympics will involve athletes struggling with disordered eating – we just won't know which ones. Worryingly, nobody will.

Once there you can take part in our online experiment, which gives you the chance to walk the path of a judoko preparing for a judo bout

An Indian Pope, finally?
Since Rahul never wants to marry, how about taking over the Vatican we say. Other contenders here too.
The Pope has retired. And we feel willed by a higher power to come up with some suggestions from the third world to be the Pope's successor. Here's our list:
1. Rahul Gandhi: Pope Dimples
Since Rahul Gandhi never wants to get married, never wants to do anything much, states the obvious every now and then and wants the whole world to hold hands, live in peace and sing songs, might we suggest he be considered for the vacancy at the Vatican. It's a win-win. About time we had a Pope the young can connect with. From John Paul to Benedict they never quite had the charisma to get the church going. And he has dimples, how about that? Rahul also says that "power is poison" and that he isn't interested in being PM. Much Like Pope Benedict said he didn't want to be Pope. We are pretty sure, much like Benedict even Rahul will take to the new position like a duck to water. Oh and Rahul G also said he's a "parachute". Was he obliquely referring to what is being called the Pope's "golden parachute" a.k.a. his retirement plans?
2. Narendra Damodar Das Modi: Pope Dread
He can carry off costumes and headgear with the panache befitting a Pope. He is definitely very passionate about religion. And he has the distinction of being at the helm as a lively carnage played out, almost as bloody as the first Crusade called by Pope Urban II. Modi also believes you should be married to your cause – not to a mortal. And much like the Pope, even Modi believes that we should "pray constantly, do justice, love goodness, and walk humbly with Him". And while Pope Benedict felt that some of the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) are "evil and inhuman", Modi is a little subtler. He simply shuns the skullcap. Oh and did you know that Pope Benedict also was registered into the Hitler Youth (which was compulsory in Nazi Germany) when he was but a naïve teenager?
3. Karan Johar: Pope Pink
He perfectly fits the ideals and philosophy of the church. It's all about family, loving your parents and dostana. He too can carry off any costume and his characters break into religious song at any given moment – remember the Raghupati Raghav Raja Ram Remix? Much like the Pope, even he believes that "each of us is the result of a thought of God. Each of us is willed. Each of us is loved. Each of us is necessary". And therefore, begins every endeavour by channelling the lord god almighty, that too on 70 mm. It's all good dharma, baby.
4. Salman Khan: Pope Oye
Forget the divine, it's all about being human. Kill, save, kill, save, run over, save, slaughter, save. He also thinks women should not expose. And uses his staff even more effectively than the Pope does his staff. He – Sallu, not the Pope – often whacks his actresses with his staff, for showing a touch of cleavage. Great believer in bachelorhood. He has many bodyguards as the Pope does. Like the Pope has side talents, so does Sallu. While he may not play the piano, he does paint. And if anyone's tweets are as impressive as @Pontifex's, it's @BeingSalmanKhan's.
5. Honey Singh: Pope Yo Yo
If anyone can give the Pope a run for his misogynist money, it's our boy Honey. Also here's the Pope's view on music – "Rock [music]…is the expression of elemental passions, and at rock festivals it assumes a cultic character, a form of worship, in fact, in opposition to Christian worship. People are, so to speak, released from themselves by the experience of being part of a crowd and by the emotional shock of rhythm, noise, and special lighting effects. However, in the ecstasy of having all their defenses torn down, the participants sink, as it were, beneath the elemental force of the universe". Now as we all know Yo Yo also believes in the power of the music concert. And in sinking below the elemental force of the universe – after all, his new album is called Shaitan. It's about time the church considered reform, even if it has to get a lot worse before it can get better.
6. Ratan Tata: Pope Poker-face
He is known for his humility like all Popes should have. His face is as inscrutable as most popes. No one knows what they're thinking since the expression hasn't changed in decades. Mamata-hate and Modi-love is greeted and reciprocated with the same poker face, like any good pope. Much like the pontiff, Ratan Tata took early retirement from a job most people consider STD – or service till death. Much like the Pope there was much speculation on the successor when he said ta ta. He is surrounded by strong-willed intelligent young disciplined men and has been succeeded by someone out of the fold. And Mr Tata loves aircrafts as much as the Pope does.
7. ND Tiwari : Pope Who's Your Daddy
Simple. He's a believer in immaculate conception. Nuff said.
8. Ramdev: Pope Tootsie
Much like the Pope, Ramdev has a love for European climes. Pope has his own country, Ramdev has his own island. And he's as fond of tax havens as the Pope, who's created a GBP 500 million international portfolio featuring real estate in UK, France and Switzerland. Both think homosexuality is a disease. Pope Benedict said – "it (homosexuality) is an intrinsic moral evil, and thus the inclination itself must be seen as an objective disorder". Ramdev goes one better and says he can cure it (homosexuality) through yoga (suck on that Pope). Ramdev believes in an organic diet. And after the Pope's retirement, "Vatican gardeners will continue to cultivate a 500 sq m organic fruit and vegetable garden. The Pope is said to enjoy marmalade made from its oranges". Much like the Pope has constant companion Georg Ganswein as his long-standing personal secretary, standing beatifically and beautifully behind him, Ramdev has constant companion even if not-as-photogenic Balkrishna behind him.

William Schimmel, accordion; Michael Sahl, piano; Stan Kurtis, violin
Born in the brothels of Buenos Aires and other Argentine ports late in the 19th century, the tango remained the soul music of the arrabal, or slums, until naughty Europeans took it up just before World War I and prompted the Archbishop of Paris to denounce it as "lascivious and an offense to morality." The early arrabal tangos were grim, with lyrics the Grove dictionary of music calls "intensely bitter, ill-humoured and introverted." But as a more sentimental form developed, the dance became respectable and attracted talented composers. In the '20s the singer Carlos Gardel, himself from the Buenos Aires arrabal, almost single-handedly led the tango into its "classic" period of artful romanticism. This is the period Domingo's album enshrines. One of opera's finest tenors, the Spaniard renders some melodic Latin jewels with a matador's bravado and a lover's ardor. Pansera's ensemble, featuring authentic accordionlike bandoneóns, grandly sweeps him along. Yet the whole thing is perhaps too plush considering the tango's humble origins. The Tango Project, by a New York-based trio, ranges from the most famous tango, La Cumparsita, to elegant European variations and gypsy-souled Argentine standards. There are no vocals, and there's an accordion instead of bandoneóns. But humanity and breadth of style flourish. For drama and emotion in a surprisingly eloquent vernacular, the music on The Tango Project is hard to beat. And it doesn't take two to enjoy it.

The federal government is suing Pennsylvania State Police, arguing that women are far more likely than men to fail the physical fitness exam that's part of the application process, and that the test discriminates against women.
According to the suit, the test, as of 2003, included a 300-meter run, sit-ups, push-ups, a vertical jump and a 1.5 mile run. It states that 94 percent of men passed the test in 2003, while only about 71 percent of women passed.
Although the test was changed in 2009, the suit cites similar pass rates for women from 2003 to 2012. The suit contends that if men and women had passed at a similar rate, about 119 more women would have advanced for further consideration for an entry-level position as a trooper, resulting in about 45 more women being hired.
Have you ever taken the physical fitness test? Do you have first-hand experience with it? Do you know someone who has?
If so, we'd like to hear from you. Contact us via reporter David Wenner at email@example.com or at email@example.com. Or simply share your experience in the comments section below.

However, when she retired in late April as a registered nurse from the Parsons Senior Center, she left behind a legacy of compassion and dedication of remarkable breadth.
Senior Center Director Roxanne Tuefing said Bava's work is the reason that most of the center's programs are so successful.

Parsons Senior Center nurse Faithe Bava enjoys retirement with Gracie, her boxer puppy.
"Luanna always went above and beyond and she had an incredibly big heart," Tuefing said.
Bava began working for the Senior Center as an in-home nurse in 1990, before the program was fully organized.
"At first it was trial and error," Bava said. "Nobody knew exactly what we were supposed to be doing.
"It was a wonderful job though. I absolutely loved it, and I could not have had better clients."
She said she worked with people all over the county, providing in-home medical services such as taking blood pressures and preparing pills, as well as developing meaningful relationships with her clients.
Bava said the relationships she developed with her clients were invaluable, because they taught her compassion, tolerance and humility.
"One of my earliest clients lived one mile up the side of a mountain," she said. "There was an entire family living there, and they did not have running water or a television. Their heat came from a pot-bellied stove in the center of the house. And they were some of the nicest people I have ever met.
"You could see they were perfectly content. Every time I left, I felt totally humbled. It taught me to appreciate what I have."
Bava mentioned another client, a cantankerous old woman, with whom she became close friends.
"The first time I visited her, she wouldn't let me into her house. We had to sit in the yard for the visit.
"However, she let me in after a few visits, and I became her best friend.
"She was so intelligent. She did not own a TV, but she loved her radio. Everyone knew that when Paul Harvey's program was on, you didn't talk to her.
"I used to tell everyone, 'She's so feisty you've got to love her.'"
Bava said one of the hardest times of her career was when this client passed away.
"I get attached to the ones with spunk. I could just love them to pieces," she said.
Coping with death, however, is part of the job. Bava said even though it was difficult at times, she learned to accept it.
"I don't think you ever get used to it, but you do realize you can't let it get you down. You have to move on."
Bava said she would change nothing about her experience as a nurse. She said she found her place.
"Nursing is a wonderful career. It can be hard - you have to love people and have a lot of sympathy, empathy and understanding - but I loved it," she said.
Tuefing said Bava will be deeply missed by the Senior Center's staff and clients, however she also wished her the best.
Bava said she her retirement plans consist of training her boxer puppy, Gracie, and experimenting with homemade wine.
"Last year we grew grapes and made our own wine, this year we're trying dandelion wine. We grew the dandelions, too," Bava said.

text: Nothing beats adult hot pussy sex. It doesn't matter if they're mature BBWs with gigantic, natural juggs or skinny teenaged chicks with tiny titties; the babe's muff is what it's really all about. Seeing a chick tongue another gal's muff or watching it get stuffed with dick is easily the hottest thing you'll ever bear witness to. Don't you just love watching one lesbian fuck another with a strapon? They say every time you hear the squishing sound of a babe's box being split open by cock, an angel creams all over its wings. Speaking of creaming, some of these babes seriously squirt as they ride cowgirl and reverse cowgirl. Meanwhile, there's not much in this world that's hotter than the sexy sight of a chick getting fucked doggy style. It's equally sexy to see a babe do it in the spooning and missionary positions.

The fully equipped research station of ESTACIÓN BIOLÓGICA LA SELVA, 4km southwest of Puerto Viejo de Sarapiquí, is one of the best birdwatching destinations in the Sarapiquí, if not the country. You can spot over half of Costa Rica's bird species here (489 in total), including the red-capped manakin – La Selva is a regular port of call for documentary makers looking to capture their energetic mating displays. An equally staggering number of tree species (some 350) have been identified, as well as 113 species of mammals, including anteaters, sloths (both two- and three-toed) and monkeys. Leading biologists from around the world have studied here, and its facilities are extensive: a large swath of premontane rainforest shouldering the northern part of Parque Nacional Braulio Carrillo forms the natural laboratory, while the research facilities include lecture halls and accommodation for scientists and students.

Analysis: The best-laid plans...
Andrew Franklin, the publisher who chairs the JCC board, said: "What is so extraordinary is the economy is deteriorating so fast in banking, property, finance, hedge funds - areas where many of the most generous of likely donors are involved."
Meanwhile, he noted, building costs have risen by 15-20 per cent, with the price of steel and cement having doubled in a year. The 2012 London Olympics has also sparked a rise in labour costs, with engineers and surveyors being "sucked into" the massive effort to get the capital ready for the games.
The JCC's rethink was, he said, "a difficult and painful decision, but it would have imprudent not to take it. But the vision remains."
No figures have been released for the cost of the building beyond a vague "tens of millions", but it would have required the community's biggest ever fundraising campaign for a capital project.
The new JCoSS school, due to open in two years, is due to cost £46 million, £36 million of which is likely to come from the government.
The JCC, however, faces the prospect of raising all its money from private sources - and even if a building does get off the ground, it has forecast that it will have to meet 20 to 30 per cent of its annual running costs from fundraising.
According to Allan Morgenthau, vice-president of the - some might say rival - London Jewish Cultural Centre, there is another reason why such a large-scale cultural project would find it difficult to attract enough money. "A lot of donors feel that money is required for social services, which are under enormous pressure," he said.
Even a JCC board comprising top fundraisers such as Sir Trevor Chinn, Lloyd Dorfman and Jennifer Moses felt no option but to rethink their grand ambitions.

A post-bankruptcy Prince Music Theater is coming into view with a 2013-14 season revealing it as a presenting, rather than producing, entity.
New leaders aren't ruling out producing shows in the future, as the group had done for decades under former artistic chief Marjorie Samoff. But for next season, it will import only.
The building just off Broad Street is now owned by a group of business investors, 1412 Chestnut Street Corp., who are leasing it to the Prince. Philadelphia businessman Herb Lotman is both an investor and chairman of the board of the nonprofit.
So far, the Prince has about 200 nights filled. Four theatrical shows are signed. Evil Dead: The Musical 4D runs from Sept. 24 to Oct. 20. The rock musical, based on the low-budget horror-film franchise, involves college students, an abandoned cabin in the woods, and dismemberment, and requires a splash zone in the first few rows of seats. It is, of course, a comedy.

New Southwestern High School basketball coach William Foster is recovering from surgery after a drive-by shooting Friday and Detroit police say they have a suspect in custody.
Police say Foster was walking near his home on Whitcomb on the city's northeast side when a gold Pontiac Grand Prix pulled up along side him. Someone rolled down a tinted window and shot Foster in the leg and buttocks.
Spokesman John Roach told the Detroit News police are questioning a possible suspect who "was driving a car similar to the one we think was involved in the shooting."
Kim Foster, the victim's sister, told the News school officials told her the shooter may be a student, but spokesmen for the DPS and DPD said no such connection has been made.
Foster worked as an assistant coach at Rennaissance High School from 2003-07 before moving to Southwestern.

Don't let it get away!
Keep track of the stocks that matter to you.
Help yourself with the Fool's FREE and easy new watchlist service today.
Bank of America (NYSE: BAC ) opened on a high note today, with a 1.5% increase from yesterday's close of $11.53. But the jump was quickly reversed just an hour later, with a quick drop to just below yesterday's close followed by a slow rebound as the day goes on. These fluctuations were not reserved just for BAC, however, as other bank stocks and both the S&P 500 and Dow experienced very similar movements.
One potential culprit behind the stocks' roller-coaster ride this morning: disappointing housing data. Single-family home sales dropped 7.3% in December, even as the average median price rose. Since mortgage originations have been bulking up banks' revenues, this news didn't do them any favors.
Bank of America saw the biggest hit, falling 1.8% from its high for the day to its low. Citigroup (NYSE: C ) also slid on the news. On the other end of the spectrum, JPMorgan Chase (NYSE: JPM ) has been a pretty steady gainer through the day. Perhaps bolstered by its announcement of an increased dividend, mortgage giant Wells Fargo (NYSE: WFC ) saw a limited downside to the housing news.
Investors can breathe a sigh of relief as the banks have all rebounded from their lows this morning. Likewise, both indices recovered, and as of 12:30 p.m., were up by 0.4% from yesterday's close. Both were bolstered by impressive earnings releases from Proctor & Gamble.
As most here at the Fool would tell you, basing any investment decision on one day's price movements would be foolish (note the lowercase "f"), but being educated on the factors that can move your stock's price will help to make you a better investor, capable of weathering the price fluctuations of any particular day.
The bigger picture
Though the housing numbers released were below analyst forecasts, sending grey clouds over the financial sector for a brief period this morning, Trulia has reported the silver lining by stating that the housing market is the strongest it has been since the bubble burst. This is a good sign for banks, as they continue to build their mortgage portfolios.

Conjugated Linoleic Acid or CLA can help you reduce body fat and prevent you from suffering from many diseases. Are you getting enough of it in your diet?
Studies have found that sufferers of thyroid disease, who are overweight, benefit from CLA. Many of these individuals find that it decreases the body fat they have even though their thyroid is working against them.
CLA has also been found to help people in all stages of cancer. Those who take in enough CLA are less likely to suffer from and die from the following cancers:
Animal studies have found that diets with .5 percent of CLA can result in the decrease of size in cancerous tumors by as much as 50 percent.
Along with cancer, osteoporosis has also been seen as a benefit of CLA. Studies have found that women of menopausal age, who have consumed large amounts of CLA through cheese, have less of a chance of breast cancer and osteoporosis.
CLA is also used to help people who are at risk for heart disease or suffer from it. It helps prevent atherosclerosis, which is the hardening of the arteries. This in turn, helps prevent heart disease.
