Phylum Chordata A Chordate is an animal that has 4 specific characteristics during their life cycle: 1- Dorsal, hollow nerve cord 2- Notochord – a long supporting rod that runs through the body below the nerve cord 3- Post anal tail 4-Pharyngeal pouches (gill slits)
1- A Dorsal, Hollow Nerve Cord This is a sheath of large nerve cells These nerve cells are somewhat like stem cells in they may play an important role in other nerve cells that develop Example: certain motorneurons are affected by the absence of these cells in embryonic development In higher organisms, the actual spinal cord is surrounded by this hollow covering.
2- A Notochord The notochord is a strong structural part of the organism It is located dorsally from the gut (endoderm and coelom) It is made of cartilage or bone It is the spine, or vertebral column
3- A Post Anal Tail Post means it is located posterior to the anus, or behind the anus It is an extension of the notochord, and made of cartilage or bone
4- Pharyngeal pouches These are located at the pharynx, or throat, of a chordate They develop into the gills of fish and juvenile amphibians In aquatic reptiles, birds and mammals, they close during embryonic development and become the throat, while the nasal passageways develop
Subphyla of the Phylum Chordata The Nonvertebrates: Sub Phylum Urochordata tunicates or Sea Squirts Sub Phylum Cephalochordata – lancelets These are very simple chordates without spines All are aquatic
Subphyla of the Phylum Chordata The Vertebrates Sub Phylum Vertebrata– cartilaginous and bony fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals These are chordates with spines of cartilage or bony tissue
Vocabulary Body temperature control: Ectotherm – animals that rely on behavior and interactions with the environment (Cold-Blooded) Endotherm – animals that generate their own body heat and control temp. from within (Warm-Blooded)
Vocabulary Egg to Juvenile Method: Oviparous – Eggs hatch outside the female body Ex: Most Fish Ovoviviparous – Eggs develop inside the female body and the young are live-born Ex: Some Sharks) Viviparous – bear live young that are nourished directly by the mothers body as they develop. Ex: Whales, Otters
Vertebrates – Agnathans (jawless fish) Examples: Lamprey; Hagfish Body Plan: snake-like, no scales, no paired fins, no true teeth or jaws Skeleton Type: fibers and cartilage 2 chambered Temperature control: ectotherm Respiration: gills Reproduction: sexually-external/ internal fertilization (oviparous) Importance: lamprey are parasites and hagfish are decomposers that feeding on dead or decaying fish)
Vertebrates – Class Chondrichthyes Examples: Sharks, Rays, Skates Chondros (Gk = cartilage) Body Plan: large curved tails, torpedo-shaped body, pointed snout, moveable jaw, placoid (rough as sandpaper)scales Skeleton Type: cartilage 2 chambered Temperature control: e ctotherm Respiration: gills Reproduction: sexually- external/internal fertilization (oviparous/ovoviviparous/some viviparous) Importance: predators in the food chain
As the front row of shark teeth are worn out, new teeth are continually replacing them. A shark goes through 20,000 teeth in its lifetime!! A skate is shown in the top picture; a stingray below
Vertebrates – Osteicthyes (bony fish) Examples: goldfish, perch, bass, trout Body Plan: lateral line (use this to sense motion of other fish nearby), swim bladder (internal, gas-filled organ that adjusts buoyancy), scales Skeleton Type: hard, calcified tissue called bone 2 chambered Temperature control: ectotherm Respiration: gills Reproduction: sexually- external fertilization (97% are oviparous ) Importance: prey in the food chain, fishing industry
Bony Fish Types Saltwater Strictly live in water with dissolved salt content near seawater, about 35 ppt in the open ocean Must regulate the loss of freshwater out of their bodies as natural osmosis and diffusion seek to balance salt concentrations within and surrounding their bodies Ex: marlin, mullet, snapper; flounder Brackish water Require salinities between 35 ppt and freshwater Many marine fry are hatched in brackish water then migrate to open oceans as they mature Ex: fry; sheepshead, croaker Freshwater Strictly live in freshwater Must regulate the increase of freshwater into their bodies as natural osmosis and diffusion seek to balance salt concentrations within and surrounding their bodies Ex: blue catfish; bluegill, hybrid bass
More Types of Fish Catadromous These fish hatch in marine waters and then migrate into freshwater to spend adulthood They return to marine waters to spawn Ex: Eels are the most common fish to do this, and the Sargasso Sea, near the southern part of the Atlantic Gyre, is their famous spawning ground Anadromous These hatch in freshwater and then migrate into marine waters to spend adulthood They return to freshwater to spawn, and then usually die Ex: Salmon, shad, smelt and sturgeon are examples.
Things you must know: Fish External Anatomy All fins Lateral line Scale Type Fish Internal Anatomy Fish Organ Systems Fish Morphology Body Shape that indicates ecological niche Fish Behaviors Mating, Territoriality, Parenting Identifying and Keying Out Fish What class are they in
Vertebrates - Reptilia Examples: snakes, lizards, turtles & tortoises, crocodiles Body Plan: dry, leathery skin, thick scales made of karatin (smooth or rough), terrestrial, amniotic eggs (shell & membrane so egg can develop out of water) Skeleton Type: hard, calcified tissue called bone 3 chambered except crocodiles with 4 chambered Temperature control: ectotherm Respiration: lungs Reproduction: sexually- internal fertilization – eggs laid on land (most oviparous/ some ovoviviparous) Importance: control rat populations, medical use/research, clothing industry
Snakes are carnivorous and stretch their jaws to consume their prey whole. Turtles make a nest and lay their eggs on land. The sex of a crocodile is determined by temperature, with males produced at 88 F, and females produced at 80 F and 93 F.
Loggerhead Turtle Caretta caretta- one of the largest, most abundant sea turtles
Kemps Ridley Turtle Lepidochelys kempii - Endangered, smallest of sea turtles, feeds mostly on crabs
Leatherback Turtle Dermochelys coriacea - largest turtles on Earth, growing up to seven feet long and exceeding 2,000 pounds
Sea Turtles Bodies enclosed in a carapace (top shell) that is fused to their backbone
Green turtle is hunted mostly for meat and cartilage for turtle soup TEDS – turtle exclusion device mandated by US government for shrimp nets
Cannot retract their head into their shell Legs are modified into flippers for swimming
Migrate long distances to reproduce 7-8 species Most live in warm waters
Do not have teeth, but have strong jaws
Nesting Very little is known why sea turtles nest on some beaches, and not on others Most females return faithfully to the same beach each time they nest
Females nest usually at night false crawl – occurs when female turns back and decides not to nest
Females lay 100-160 eggs in a nest that hatch about 60 days later
Females appear to shed tears as they lay, secreting salt that has accumulated in her body Covers with rear flippers and disguises the nest
Incubation & Emergence About 60 days The hotter the sand, the faster they hatch Warmer sand – more females Cooler sand – more males
Hatchlings use a temporary, sharp egg- tooth called a caruncle to break open the shell Caruncle then falls off
Digging out of the nest is a group effort that takes days Emerge from nest in a group
Orient themselves to the brightest horizon Only about 1 in 1000 survives to adulthood
Vertebrates – Amphibia (double-life) Examples: frogs, Toads, newts, salamander As larvae usually live in water and as adult live on land Body Plan: moist skin with mucus glands, lack scales/claws, undergo metamorphosis Skeleton Type: hard, calcified tissue called bone 3 chambered Temperature control: ectotherm Respiration: young=gills adult=lungs Reproduction: sexually- external fertilization (oviparous ) or internal ( salamanders) Importance: control insect populations, medical/ pharmaceutical use, food source (frog legs) in India/Asia
Frog Metamorphosis
Vertebrates – Aves (birds) Examples: chickens, penguins, cardinals, ostrich Body Plan: feathers of protein/keratin (flight/warmth), two legs covered in scales, front limbs modified into wings, thin hollow bones (helpful for flying) Skeleton Type: hollow, calcified tissue called bone 4 chambered Temperature control: endotherm (can generate own body heat) Respiration: lungs, includes passageways of air through air sacs Reproduction: sexually- internal fertilization - oviparous Importance: control insect populations, food source, clothing, bedding, hunting purposes
Aquatic Birds have special adaptations… Their feathers are highly resistant to being wetted They usually have higher oil production than other birds from glands at the base of the tail The oil is applied to the feathers during preening Preening is birds grooming activity; they run their beak through their feathers to straighten and comb them During preening oil is spread lightly over feathers to help keep them water resistant Dry feathers Keep birds warm when in aquatic sites Are easier to use for flight (think about a paper airplane that is dry vs. one that is wet!)
More special adaptations… Aquatic birds also have special appendages… Feet are webbed for swimming Legs may be longer to wade in water Long toes spread out to distribute weight in mud Beaks are modifications like the following: for grasping wet, slippery prey Hooked tips on eagles The huge baskets of pelicans, spear-like points in herons, cranes and egrets filters of flamingos Beaks modified into bills for duck- and goose-like creatures for sifting worms and arthropods from mud, or for catching fish underwater
Class Aves
Endotherms – warm-blooded Covered with waterproof feathers to conserve body heat
Most can fly Nest on land, many forming huge colonies Have webbed feet http://video.nationalge ographic.com/video/ind ex.html
Feed mostly at sea Worldwide distribution Only 3% of total bird population High metabolism – eat up to their body weight a day
Penguins Native to Southern Hemisphere. Most northerly population lives in Galapagos Islands. The bird most fully adapted for sea life flightless
Great swimmers Adapted for cold by storing fat under skin
Dense feathers hold in body heat 18 species Most are native to Antarctica
Establish breeding colonies, with some mating for life
Emperor Penguin Largest 45 inches tall
Pelicans Have a pouch below their beak. Most scoop fish from the water
Brown Pelican Almost extinct because of pesticide pollution Nest in large, messy, twiggy nests along the coast
Brown Pelican plunges in the water to catch their food. If they dont catch it directly, the shock stuns the fish
Gulls Largest family of seabirds Predators and scavengers http://video.nationalgeogr aphic.com/video/
1. Shore birds 2. Water birds 3. Sea birds 3 Categories of Marine Birds
1.Shorebirds Wading birds Live mostly inland: estuaries and marshes Plovers Sandpipers
2.Water Birds Live in coastal and continental interiors, but require water for feeding and nesting Ducks Loon Cormorant
3.Sea Birds Live on and around the sea
Albatrosses Nest on land, live at sea Wingspans can reach 11 feet. http://video.nationalgeographic.com/v ideo/index.html
Arctic Terns Have the greatest migration of any bird. They venture from pole to pole every year- a voyage of 22,000 miles.
Hazards for Sea Birds Plastic debris- ingest plastic materials because it fills the stomach, but lacks nutrients and cannot be passed.
Oil slicks saturate the feathers, destroying the ability to insulate, let alone be able to fly. The loss of insulation alone can be fatal
The greatest danger to seabirds is…. rat and mouse invasions. The mice consume the birds eggs in huge numbers, causing significant bird population declines on some Pacific Islands. http://player.discoveryeducation.com/index. cfm?guidAssetId=5EB7F6AC-44B0-4E2E- A4CC- 1C9411BE3ED7&blnFromSearch=1&product code=US
Vertebrates - Mammalia Examples: cats, whales, gorillas, zebras, humans Body Plan: mammary glands (produce milk to nourish the young), have hair, breathe air, bear live young Skeleton Type: hard, calcified tissue called bone 4 chambered Temperature control: endotherm (can generate own body heat) Respiration: lungs Reproduction: sexually- internal fertilization (viviparous) Importance: food, hunting, clothing, medical research, pets
Mammalia Reproduction Diversity Monotreme – egg-laying mammal; like reptiles except after eggs hatch the young is nourished by mothers milk Only 3 species exist: duckbill platypus, 2 spiny anteaters Marsupial – bear live young that complete their development in an external pouch Kangaroos, koalas, wombats Placental – nutrients, O2, CO2, wastes are exchanged b/n embryo and mother through placenta Elephants, rabbits, humans

DJ Vibe
His DJ fame soon led to production and remix work. It was as a remixer that he first scored a milestone, by remixing then-popular band Ban's "Mundo de Aventuras" in a house music style, turning in the first modern dance music remix ever made in the Portuguese music scene. A year later, he joins short-lived Madchester-inspired act LX90, lending his production skills. Following a couple more remixes, Vibe then linked up with sound engineer and producer Rui Da Silva (at the time known as Doctor J) to form the Underground Sound of Lisbon. Their debut 12", Chapter I, caused an uproar on Portuguese dancefloors in late 1993. But that was just the beginning, as the B-side of the record, "So Get Up," started to attract attention from influential DJs such as Junior Vasquez and Danny Tenaglia. Soon that interest transformed into an international licensing deal through Tribal Records, sending what was at first a B-side track to main song status and acclaim on the world's dancefloors, culminating with a respectful number 42 on Billboard's Hot Dance Music/Maxi-Singles Sales charts and giving birth to a dance music classic in the process.
DJ Vibe seized the international acclaim to further his status in Portugal. In 1995, he scored yet another milestone, as he manned the boards for Kaos Totally Mixed, the first commercially available DJ-mixed compilation coming from both a Portuguese label and DJ. A relentless DJing schedule (both national and international), further production and remix work (by himself and in conjunction with others), and a good number of DJ-mixed releases only further increased his rank as Portugal's leading figure in the electronic dance music scene well into the new millennium. ~ Ricardo Raínho

But life without racing is just what the 30-year-old had to consider after a tragic crash in the summer of 2015 left her with a broken back. McKinnon and her husband, Chris McKinnon, of Lawrence, Kansas, have been avid motorcyclists since moving to the Midwest from Florida shortly after Elyse graduated from college. Elyse says her competitive drive prompted her transition from weekend rider to competitive drag racer. Motorcycle Gangs In Kansas City By Sam Zeff & Lisa Rodriguez • May 19, 2015 Feuding motorcycle gangs have made national headlines after Sunday's deadly fight in Waco, Texas.

Guests: Missouri House Votes To Repeal Mandatory Motorcycle Helmet Law By Marshall Griffin • May 3, 2013 Marshall Griffin / St. Louis Public Radio The Missouri House has passed legislation that would allow motorcyclists to ride without wearing helmets. House Bill 555 would lift the mandatory helmet requirement for motorcycle drivers and passenger who are at least 21 years of age or older. It would remain in effect for those under 21. The sponsor is Republican Rep. Eric Burlison from Springfield, he says the data he's seen indicates that most motorcycle deaths are from torso injuries, not head trauma.

Driver arrested in Hollywood after speeding through O.C., L.A.
IRVINE – A man is in custody after failing to yield to law enforcement after traveling from Orange County to Hollywood at excessive speeds, police said.
The incident was reported around 9 a.m. Tuesday after an Orange County Sheriff's deputy observed a white Infinity traveling north on the 5 Freeway near Culver Drive and going more than 90 miles per hour, Lt. Joe Balicki said.
The deputy got behind the car, paced it and turned on emergency lights, Balacki said. The driver slowed down but failed to yield to the deputy. The deputy put out an alert and two California Highway Patrol units joined in to follow the car.
Once the car crossed into Los Angeles County, the sheriff's deputy dropped off and two more CHP units joined the pursuit.
The driver was finally stopped by CHP officers at Hollywood Boulevard and Western Avenue, where he was taken into custody, CHP officials said.

IT Agenda
Speaking via Skype, Deputy U.S. CIO Lisa Schlosser discusses the administration's IT priorities. (FCW photo by Troy K. Schneider)
With Federal CIO Steven VanRoekel called away on White House business, Deputy CIO Lisa Schlosser stepped in to talk about federal IT priorities via Skype at the ACT-IAC Management of Change 2013 conference in Cambridge, Md.
Her message, similar to those VanRoekel has delivered recently, centered on increased innovation, improved cyber and information security, a CIO Council-led effort to implement continuous monitoring in the federal space, and cost-cutting measures such as strategic sourcing and shared services.
Schlosser said the Office of Management and Budget wants agencies to move toward increased headquarters-based authorities to take advantage of commodity IT services while reducing duplication. Savings, she said, can be reinvested in mission-driven initiatives and innovation, which the government would like to incorporate in "every single thing we do."
"That is the ideal state," Schlosser said. "We want to move toward models where headquarter levels have authority to run commodity priorities, so they can take advantage of commodity services and find savings in commodity IT. Agencies can then use those savings to invest in better opportunities. We want to take advantage of economies of scale so we can invest more in mission capabilities."
Schlosser also discussed the PortfolioStat initiative's successes thus far -- which include $2.5 billion in savings identified through "face-to-face, evidence-based review" of entire agency portfolios -- and signaled where its next version, PortfolioStat 2.0, is headed. The revamped PortfolioStat encompasses the OMB-driven Federal Data Center Consolidation Initiative, though Schlosser said OMB's focus has shifted from consolidation to optimization.
The shift comes after the Government Accountability Office and members of Congress criticized OMB for not tracking cost savings and relevant metrics in data center consolidation.
"We want to capitalize on virtualization, not just cost savings," Schlosser said.
She added that first-year deliverables for the Obama administration's Digital Government Strategy will be released soon and said officials will continue to push for continuous monitoring of federal IT systems in the next few years. The government's efforts thus far in that arena, led by the Department of Homeland Security and the CIO Council, will be highlighted in a soon-to-be-published document.
"You're going to see a very big focus in the next two to three years on implementing and moving government from paper-based security monitoring to a continuous monitoring model," Schlosser said. "We must be proactive in our threat detection."

We were fortunate enough to discover Orcas Island back in 2003, it was then that we made the decision this was where we wanted to retire. In 2011 we made this a reality and focus on our vacation homes full time. We enjoy working on projects where we can find a ugly ducking of a house and turn it into a beautiful swan. My husband is incredibly handy so we can do all the work ourselves. We work well together as his talents combined with my passion for interior design makes for a winning team. Favorite hobbies are cooking, entertaining and sailing. Our children are very precious to us as we lost our youngest son a few years ago and now realize how important it is to to slow down and make time for family and friends. Everyday is Precious!

MBI Energy Services Fleet Safer, More Efficient, and Providing Premier Customer Service With PeopleNet's Precision Mobility Platform
ORLANDO, FL and MINNEAPOLIS, MN, Oct 22, 2013 (Marketwired via COMTEX) -- PeopleNet(R), a Trimble Company and leading provider of fleet mobility technology that promotes on-time schedules, enhances service levels, and improves safety/compliance for energy services companies, today announced that MBI Energy Services is using its Precision Mobility Platform to strengthen customer service, driver efficiency, and safety for MBI's 1,000-plus fleet.
MBI Integrated Dispatch Project Manager Dave Guthmiller said, "Keeping up with explosive growth requires moving data quickly, reliably and efficiently. PeopleNet provides immediate access to critical data on several fronts, including load data that lets us meet customer demand for immediate billing. Vehicle tracking provides customers visibility into where and when their loads have been dropped and picked up. PeopleNet has made a huge difference in how we operate. We are simply more competitive with a safer, more efficient fleet and a higher level of customer service. Integration between Crude Oil Workflow and TMWSuite dispatch has automated driver-dispatch communication and skyrocketed driver efficiency.
Drivers receive and send updated load information about pickups and deliveries in real time." Making the announcement at the 2013 ATA (American Trucking Association) Management Conference & Exhibition being held in Orlando Oct. 19-22, PeopleNet Senior Vice President Rick Ochsendorf said, "Our Energy Services area is dedicated to helping fleets like MBI by combining PeopleNet fleet mobility solutions with proven technologies from other Trimble companies including GEOTrac, a leading technology supplier to Canada's energy services transportation sector, and ALK Technologies, a leader in transportation technology and navigation software.

The company offers most of these services in North and South Dakota, Wyoming, Texas, Pennsylvania, Colorado and Montana.
Since beginning to use PeopleNet in April 2012, Guthmiller said that MBI drivers have come to appreciate how much easier PeopleNet makes their lives and how much it contributes to fleet safety. "They actually rely on eDriver Logs to save them the time they used to spend filling out paper logs. Plus, the 30-minute pre-break alert helps keep them compliant with hours-of-service regulations, which supports our safety regimen. In addition to our daily tailgate meetings before drivers get on the road, eDriver Logs screens remind drivers about safety throughout the day. We're looking forward to additional benefits from PeopleNet engine data and Fault Codes for preventive maintenance."

Heart disease and stroke are one of the leading causes of death for Canadian women—and risk factors, symptoms and even treatment might vary by age. Here's what you need to know.
It was Dec. 13, 2014. I was getting ready to go out for dinner when suddenly everything went wrong. I lost coordination, almost like I was drunk. I went numb, as if the local anesthetic that dentists use had been applied to half of my body. My arm went limp, I could barely walk and, out of the blue, I got a raging migraine. At 31 years old, I was in the midst of a transient ischemic attack, often called a ministroke, but I had no idea.
It wasn't until the next day, when I was feeling only slightly better, that I realized something was really wrong. I didn't want to wait for an appointment with my family doctor, so I called Telehealth Ontario, the provincial service that connects callers to a registered nurse via telephone. In the very back of my mind, I wondered if I'd had a stroke—but I was too young, or so I thought. But when I described my symptoms, it became clear that I wasn't too young. In fact, the nurse who took my call was worried enough to send paramedics to my house. Soon, I was in the back of an ambulance, rushing through Toronto's busy streets on the way to the hospital.
The statistics
Luckily, my stroke was mild, and, in July 2015, I underwent surgery to have a patent foramen ovale closure device inserted to close the hole in my heart. But, to this day, I'm still shocked at how little I knew about the risks associated with stroke and heart disease, or just how common they are. As I soon learned, about 1.6 million Canadians—557,000 of them women over the age of 24—report having cardiovascular disease. And, according to a study looking at factors and behaviours affecting cardiovascular health published in 2013 in the Canadian Medical Association Journal, fewer than one in 10 adult Canadians were in ideal cardiovascular health from 2003 to 2011, which means 90 percent of us are making choices that are increasing our risk for a cardiovascular event. In fact, heart disease and stroke is one of the leading causes of death for Canadian women, and most of us have at least one risk factor.
It's a club that I didn't particularly want to be a part of, but having joined, I began wondering what other women's experiences had been like.
Unlike me, when Victoria resident Carolyn Thomas started having a range of symptoms— crushing chest pain, nausea, weakness, sweating and a persistent ache down her left arm—on her 58th birthday, she immediately thought it could be a heart attack and went straight to the ER. But when she got there and told the doctor on duty about her symptoms, he said it was just acid reflux. "I remember exactly what he said," she recalls. " 'You're in the right demographic for acid reflux. Go home and call your family doctor for a prescription for antacids.' " Embarrassed and apologetic, she did just that. But her symptoms persisted for two more weeks. She eventually went back to the hospital, and this time, she was told she was suffering from what was actually one of the most serious types of heart attacks—a complete blockage of her left anterior descending artery, which is often referred to as the widow-maker.
Since then, she has recovered, but it's far from full—she had to retire early and continues to see a specialist at her regional pain clinic.
Irmine MacKenzie also went to the hospital immediately. It's been 35 years since the New Waterford, N.S., resident lost the use of her left arm and leg after suffering a stroke caused by carotid artery stenosis, narrowing of the arteries that carry blood from the heart to the brain. She was 61 years old and, having just finished eating breakfast with her husband, John, she headed to the kitchen to tackle the dishes. Suddenly, plates started dropping from her hands, shattering as they hit the floor.
After a six-week hospital stay and a three-month stint in a rehabilitation program in Halifax, she eventually learned to walk again. Her ability to manage quite well over the past three decades is clearly a testament to her grit— and maybe some kind words from a stranger. "I won't ever forget the ambulance driver who took me to the rehabilitation centre," she says. "He told me, 'We're taking you by stretcher now, but you'll be walking out of there with a cane.' " Sure enough, that's exactly what she did.
A better understanding
It has now been two years since I suffered my transient ischemic attack, and I feel like I'm still learning about heart health. I now understand the importance of cardiac rehabilitation, for one thing. When I had my stroke, I didn't know this kind of program existed—my cardiologist didn't refer me to one, but having access to dedicated professionals in a safe, encouraging environment could have helped me navigate the health-care system and guided me toward healthier choices.
One thing I found myself, Carolyn and Irmine echoing is how, as women, we must advocate for ourselves in the health-care system, ensuring that our voices are heard and our health is looked after. We need to put ourselves first, without shame or guilt. As Dr. Paula Harvey, director of the cardiovascular research program at Women's College Hospital in Toronto, says, "It comes back to education and partnership with your health provider. Don't be afraid to ask questions and be informed."
Heart health by the decade
Nearly two-thirds of all heart attacks and strokes occur in Canadians 65 or older, but younger Canadians are increasingly at risk. Here's what you need to know at every age.
In your 20s and 30s: Young people with heart-health issues are part of a growing minority. A study published in 2012 out of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine found that, over a period of 12 years, strokes among people aged 20 to 54 made up an increasingly greater proportion of strokes across all age groups, growing from about 13 percent in 1993–94 to 19 percent in 2005.
Closer to home, the Heart and Stroke Foundation says several studies predict that the rate of strokes among younger adults will double in the next 15 years. The main reason? According to Dr. Tara Sedlak, a cardiologist at Vancouver General Hospital and clinical assistant professor at The University of British Columbia, it comes down to lifestyle—high stress levels, poor eating habits, lack of exercise and smoking. Research bears this out: The University of Cincinnati study suggested that a rise in lifestyle-related risk factors (such as diabetes, obesity and high cholesterol) may contribute to a higher incidence of stroke.
But there is a way to turn the tide: As with other age groups, simple changes such as exercising regularly, quitting smoking and eating healthily could see the rates of cardiovascular disease—and, more specifically, stroke—decrease, says Dr. Paula Harvey, director of the cardiovascular research program at Women's College Hospital in Toronto.
In your 40s and 50s: Cardiovascular disease is less common among younger women, in part because of their higher estrogen levels; the hormone offers some protection to the arteries. But as women approach menopause and their estrogen levels drop, the incidence of stroke and heart attack increases.
Unfortunately, broad knowledge of their increased risk may not protect perimenopausal women from misdiagnosis. According to research by the Canadian Medical Protective Association, which provides advice, legal assistance and risk-management education to 95,000 Canadian physicians, doctors are missing the signs of stroke in patients nearly 10 percent of the time, largely because symptoms are often nonspecific—patients often complained of headache, dizziness, nausea and vomiting.
And women, who have historically been less inclined to advocate for themselves, are particularly at risk. Research out of the University of Leeds in England showed that, between April 2004 and March 2013, 198,534 heart attack patients at National Health Service hospitals in England and Wales were initially misdiagnosed—and most of them were women. During that time, women suffering a heart attack were 50 percent more likely to be misdiagnosed compared to men.
It might be difficult to challenge doctors who tell you nothing's wrong, but Dr. Sedlak encourages women to listen to their bodies and to be firm with health-care providers about what they're experiencing. "If you feel there is a real problem, be persistent," she says.
In your 60s and beyond: Women over 65 have the most strokes of all age groups, but they still have fewer strokes than men the same age. However, a Danish study published in the Journal of the American Heart Association in 2015 found that, after 60, women tend to have more serious strokes than men—and they're more likely to survive, which can have serious repercussions on quality of life.
John Sawdon, the public education and special projects director of the Cardiac Health Foundation of Canada, explains that cardiac rehabilitation programs, which are free with a referral from your doctor, are the perfect next step for recovering cardiac patients of all ages, but they're particularly important for older Canadians, who tend to live more sedentary lives. These programs are supervised by a cardiologist and, after an assessment, are tailored by your cardiac rehab team, which usually includes nurses, physical therapists, kinesiologists and social workers. They can provide exercise training, education on heart-healthy living and stress counselling—all of which can contribute to the health and well-being of people who have heart problems. And they're effective, too: "Research has shown that those completing cardiac rehab live seven years longer than control groups," says Sawdon. It also "reduces incidence of another heart attack by 50 percent."
What's your risk?
Ninety percent of adult Canadians have at least one risk factor for cardiovascular disease. But while factors such as obesity, hypertension, alcohol abuse, family history and ethnicity increase everyone's risk, regardless of gender, the following three are particularly relevant to women.
Smoking: While we all know that smoking is seriously unhealthy, it can be especially damaging to women's cardiovascular health. Smoking when taking the oral contraceptive pill can drastically increase the risk of heart attack and stroke. But quitting can cut your risk within a year.
Diabetes: According to the Canadian Diabetes Association, people with diabetes are at a very high risk of developing cardiovascular disease. In fact, "they may develop heart disease 10 to 15 years earlier than individuals without diabetes."
Mental illness and stress: "Women have a higher frequency of stress-induced heart disease, and women's hearts are affected by stress and depression more than men's," says Dr. David Fitchett, a cardiologist at St. Michael's Hospital in Toronto and associate professor of medicine at the University of Toronto.
Heart health dictionary
Atherosclerosis: When arteries narrow and harden due to plaque buildup.
Cardiomyopathhy: Diseases of the heart muscle, which cause it to become enlarged, thick or rigid.
Cardiovascular disease: A broad term for problems with the heart and blood vessels, often due to atherosclerosis. These conditions can lead to heart attack, angina or stroke.
Heart attack: Also known as a myocardial infarction, these attacks happen when the flow of blood to a section of the heart is blocked, preventing the muscle from getting oxygen.
High blood pressure: Also called hypertension, this is when the long-term force of blood against artery walls is elevated, requiring the heart to work harder, which may eventually lead to heart disease.
Microvascular angina: A disease of the small coronary artery blood vessels. Many angiograms do not view the small blood vessels, so this can be difficult to diagnose.
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection: A tear in the coronary artery wall. Physical or emotional stress appears to play a role. Most cases (around 70 percent) occur in women under 50—and a third of those are pregnant or postpartum women.
Stroke: When the blood supply to a portion of the brain is interrupted. This can happen when a blood vessel carrying oxygen and nutrients to the brain either bursts or is blocked.

Q: I really like the look of hardwood flooring, but I've been warned against using it in the kitchen.
I don't want to settle for laminate. Are there any other options?
— R.S., Brantford, ON
A: Many people love the warmth and elegance of wood floors in a kitchen, but durability is a concern. Water can damage any type of flooring, so humidity levels must be controlled in kitchen and bath environments.
Your best bet is engineered wood flooring: a thin veneer of real wood adhered to a composite wood plank. This option offers the thickness of a solid wood plank at a considerably lower price tag. The planks are sold sanded, stained and protected—often with up to 15 coats of UV-protectant varnish, making them scratch- and fade-resistant. As easy to install as laminate planks, they're a good option to use all over the house, even in the kitchen. Expect to pay $8 to $20 per square foot for the product, and an
additional $4 to $8 per square foot for professional installation.

This common succulent is known to be a great solution to relieve burns but did you know that it's toxic to both cats and dogs? Symptoms of aloe poisoning include diarrhea, vomiting, loss of appetite, depression, tremors and a change in urine color. Typically, symptoms begin to show about six to twleve hours after ingesting but if you fear your fur baby has nibbled on some, don't wait—get peace of mind and seek medical assistance to avoid any further complications. How to curb food aggression in dogs
Calla lillies, although quite beautiful, contain insoluble crystals of calcium oxalate that are toxic to dogs and cats if ingested. Symptoms of poisoning may be seen almost immediately and include pawing at face, drooling, foaming and vomiting. More severe symptoms include swelling of the lips, tongue, oral cavity and upper airway, making it difficult to breathe or swallow. In most cases where a pet eats a plant containing calcium oxalate, treatment can be managed at home by rinsing your pet's mouth thoroughly, but it's always best to seek medical advice from your vet.
This easy-to-grow houseplant contains a chemical that is toxic to cats and dogs. If consumed, your pet may experience mouth irritation, increased salivation, vomiting and difficulty swallowing. If you want to keep this plant in your home, be sure to store it in a place that is out of reach to ensure your pet's safety. How to keep your pet safe and healthy this summer
Hyacinth's toxicity is highly concentrated in the bulbs as oppose to the leaf and when ingested in large amounts, can result in problems for your pet. Depending on the amount ingested, symptoms can be moderate to severe and include irritation to the mouth and esophagus, profuse drooling, vomiting and diarrhea. In severe situations, symptoms range from increased heart rate to changes in respiration and difficulty breathing. If you fear your dog or cat has ingested hyacinths, contact your vet for treatment recommendations.
Like the calla lily, the satin pathos plant contains calcium oxalate. If massive amounts of plants containing this toxin are consumed, the symptoms become much more severe and include convulsions, renal failure, coma and death. It's possible for your pet to recover from severe calcium oxalate poisoning, but in most cases permanent liver and kidney damage will have already occurred. 8 ways to keep your dog healthy
Daffodils pose a danger to dogs and cats if ingested. Symptoms can include severe gastrointestinal issues like vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal pain, low blood pressure, lethargy and kidney damage. There is no specific treatment or antidote for daffodil ingestion, but you can rinse any existing plant matter from your pet's mouth thoroughly to prevent further damage. If your pet's vomiting or diarrhea is extensive, take them to the vet.
The asparagus fern is another common houseplant and can be toxic to your dog and/or cat if ingested and can also cause minor skin irritation in pets with sensitive skin. Beware the berries, as they are more toxic to your pet than the foliage and thus cause more serious symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal pain. Since treatment is generally symptomatic, most pets will make a full recovery in 24 to 48 hours, but always consult with your veterinarian if you're concerned. 5 reasons you shouldn't declaw your cat
Tulips can signify that spring has finally sprung but that doesn't mean they're safe for your dog or cat to be around. If ingested, tulips can cause depression, severe vomiting and diarrhea, excessive drooling and loss of appetite. Induce vomiting and seek veterinary help.
This common houseplant is know for it's hard-to-kill properties and can not only cause vomiting and diarrhea if ingested, it can also cause skin irritation if your pet is exposed to it repeatedly. Keep the plant in an out-of-reach spot or in a room where you can close the door to keep your fur baby away.
This flowering shrub can do serious damage to your dog or cat depending on the amount consumed. Symptoms can vary from excessive drooling, sweating (nose and foot pads), vomiting, diarrhea and low blood pressure to more serious side effects such as total loss of coordination, severe muscular weakness, Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, coma and possibly death. If a small amount is consumed by your pet, don't fret! The toxin found in azaleas is metabolized and excreted rapidly, so your pet will generally begin to feel better within hours and can make a full recovery in 24 hours. However, if large amounts are ingested, activated charcoal should be administered to your pet repeatedly on the first day. As always, consult your vet. 7 ways to cope with losing a pet
The best new hair products for spring 2017 Image by: Bumble & Bumble
New and improved products from some of your favourite hair brands are hitting shelves this season.
The hair-care aisle is chock full of potions promising miracles, but we're after products that actually work—with the science and research to back them up.
Half of the global population experiences dandruff, but women seem to be slacking. "A far smaller proportion of women [to men] take proper care of their scalp," says Phil Marchant, the principal scientist for Head & Shoulders. "Many women think antidandruff products only fight dandruff or are too harsh." Over the past few years, Head & Shoulders' team of scientists has been working to change this mindset. A combination of zinc pyrithione and zinc carbonate is the brand's dandruff-fighting duo. Product developers swapped the shampoo's former particle size of zinc with micronized zinc (commonly used in facial sunscreens), reducing its size eight times over. "The smaller particle deposits more effectively and efficiently into the harder-to-reach areas on the scalp," says Marchant. This helps banish dandruff while also giving a better lather and allowing shampoo to rinse away more easily.
Head & Shoulders Smooth & Silky Shampoo and Conditioner, $6, walmart.ca.
"If it's not broke, don't fix it" was Herbal Essences unofficial motto for more than 45 years. Now, the brand known for unforgettable scents and kooky commercials is introducing a new line that marries the best of nature with science, thanks to a new technology called Bio:renew. The complex includes aloe to heal, sea kelp to nourish, bamboo to strengthen and, at its core, histidine, an amino acid and antioxidant. "When you go outside or colour or wash your hair, you're exposing it to free radicals," says Rachel Zipperian, principal scientist for Herbal Essences. "Once free radicals get into the hair, they try to associate themselves with damage sites. The vulnerable parts get free-radical buildup, which accelerates damage, and you end up with lifeless hair." Zipperian explains that antioxidants track free radicals and "take them out" so they're no longer active. The new collection comes in a range of indulgent scents.
Herbal Essences Bio:renew Shampoo and Conditioner, $10 each, shoppersdrugmart.ca.
Clay's purifying properties are well known to skin-care aficionados, and now your hair can benefit from them, too. L'Oréal's latest hair-care release—available in shampoo, conditioner and a preshampoo mask—tackles greasy roots and dry ends with a combo of kaolinite, argilane and montmorillonite clays, helping balance hair from root to tip. Expect fresh, soft strands for up to 72 hours.
L'Oréal Paris Hair Expertise Extraordinary Clay Pre-Shampoo Treatment, $8.50, lorealparis.ca.
Take a walk down the shampoo aisle and you'll spot products that seem—dare we say it?—delicious. Hair-care brands are increasingly turning to fruit, vegetables and other plants for their nutritional benefits. Products containing yucca and goji berry, black sesame and grapefruit, and quinoa husk and honey take the guesswork our of reading ingredients labels and leave your hair with a yummy scent to boot.
Matrix Biolage R.A.W. Haircare, $25, biolage.matrixcanada.ca.
The new hair-brightening spray from L'Anza uses optical refraction technology, which relfects pigments within the inner cortex of the haqir cuticle to intensify hair colour. Color Illuminator doesn't deposit new colour; instead, it magnifies preexisting pigments that are concealed by the hair's cutcle layer. The result: instantly brighter hair in the short term, and long term, strong and healthy hair nourished with UV protectors, which prevent fading.
L'Anza Color Illuminator Hair Brightening Spray, $35, lanza.com.
It's not just skin care that's ditching chemicals in favour of all-natural ingredients. Rocky Mountain Soap Co. has taken this trend to hair care too. The Canadian company's packaging, ingredients and even store design benefit from an attention to environmentally conscious detail. "I see us heading into a societal shift, defined by simplicity and authenticity, where green choices are the new expectation," says co-owner Karina Birch.

text: Hello everyone. My Grandad (sadly deceased for 8 yeras now) served in Burma during/after the second world war, I think he served with the the Gloucestershire Regiment (as I still have his capbadge) although he is from northumberland?! Unless he did swops or something!?. He also gave me his "DZ flash" which is a khaki badge with crossed spears (same shape as the 16AA Bge badge). I have spent quiet alot of time searching about the internet now, but I have came to a dead end. If anybody has any info or websites that may be of help that would be great


text: There is another post by a member asking about spiritual and physical death. Which made me think also. If man, as a whole personality, is body, soul, and spirit, and the soul has everlasting life (that is, it lives forever, whether it goes to heaven or hell), then which spirit is dead before regeneration, when the Bible also says in Ecclessiastes 12:7 - Is this spirit the soul, or is it the breath of life ? Is the Preacher referring to all men, or some men only, or many men ?

Loveland Pass Rd
Before the Eisenhower Tunnel was completed, Loveland Pass was one of the only ways over the Continental Divide. At times you will be driving along a sheer drop of 1000 feet or more. The payoff is that the pass is breathtakingly gorgeous. Sitting at an altitude of nearly 12,000 feet, you can look down on the valleys below. In the summer time you go hiking above treeline and take in the bizarre flora and fauna of the alpine zone. If you head up before June or July, there will likely still be massive drifts along the side of the road--some as deep as 30 feet. Another benefit to Loveland Pass is that you can get to the resorts of A-Basin and Keystone much fast than driving all the way to Breckenridge.

Midday in Glasgow on summer solstice & temp is 12C, the same as it was on winter solstice (21st December). So depressing! #happysolstice

Scotland is buzzing this evening! Cars tooting horns and flying flags. A real feeling of excitement out there.

National Head- Derivative Desk, Aditya Birla Money | Capital Expertise: F&O
Thukral told CNBC-TV18, "We expect index to continue to trade in a range between 5950 and 6250. We feel that further consolidation should continue for at least seven to 7-10 trading sessions. Therefore we are recommending a short striangle on Nifty that is one can sell 5900 Put and 6200 Call. Current premium collected will be in the range between Rs 42-45."
"On stocks front we have our first call on GMR Infrastructure. The stock had seen 87 percent positions rolled which was the highest among its peers with a positive cost and that is reflected in today's price action also. Stock has managed to close above Rs 20 which was acting as a stiff resistance. So, in immediate short-term we are expecting stock to further move up to Rs 23-23.50 levels."
"Second stock that we are recommending a strategy is also a high beta real estate counter, Indiabulls Real Estate . The stock also has seen 92 percent positions rolled and it is looking very strong on basis of the cost or premium going forward. The way open interest has added up today also, 14 percent positions being added clearly suggesting that long buying interest is developing. Technically too stock is now poised at a very critical level of Rs 81. If it manages to sustain above Rs 81 we are looking at a target of Rs 93."

I think that the Flaming Lips might be my favourite current American band (I have a complicated system of hierarchies) so I was excited for this new one. If you have ever seen the Lips live – like perhaps their free show at Dundas Square last summer – you get that the experience is all about spectacle: confetti, dancing costumed bunnies, front-man Wayne Coyne bouncing over the crowd in his giant hampster ball.
If you listen to their music, however, you know that their albums can be bleak, dense and grim. Sure, some of their live show exuberance translates to their recordings, but there is a definite darkness running throughout their catalogue. Their new album The Terror might be their blackest yet. It is certainly a heavy, dissonant, and at times, challenging listen. If this is your first encounter with the band, maybe check out some of their earlier recordings like At War With the Mystics or Embryonic.
But if you want a better understanding of how the joy found in the Flaming Lips live experience works with the band's darker tendencies check out The Fearless Freaks. It's a wonderful documentary that digs into the band's music and films (like their science fiction Christmas movie!). It also doesn't avoid some of the sadder life-stuff that the band has faced throughout the years. Coyne comes from a big, rough, colourful family; some of his brothers have had run-ins with the law. Music genius Steven Drozd struggles with his long-time drug addictions. The scene where he recounts his relationship with heroin – while high – is harrowing and difficult to watch.
Still, I believe the movie perfectly captures both sides of the Flaming Lips experience. The band understands that life's joys and wonders are so often tempered by its struggles.

Pencoed Couple
- The villa was lovely, very clean, with plenty of space and facilities. It would be a good idea to have a few dishwasher tablets and a few washing tablets in the cupboards as its expensive to buy packs of them when you might only use a few. The pool was very cold but lovely and there were plenty of sun beds. The ants can be a little annoying but overall we dealt with them. We would stay here again and would recommend the villa. One thing to note, the workmen start work early in the mornings so it can be quite noisy first thing.

The girls and I were running an errand yesterday and discovered that our favorite ice cream place in town has completely closed down: storefront entirely empty, drive-thru menu gone, signage ripped from the front of the building.
The sad thing is that I had just opened my mouth to say, "Hey, as soon as we're done with this errand, let's go get an ice cream to celebrate Easter and spring break!"
The words died unspoken on my lips and we all grimly looked at the former premises where many the happy waffle cone has been eaten. It looked very forlorn.
It's got to the point where I'm almost afraid to look around me these days, for fear of what I'm going to see next that's gone with the wind. Last month it was Blockbuster, now the ice cream store, Noble Roman's, with the best breadsticks in town, bit the dust last fall. Ugh.

umm, so are the other varieties (that actually taste ok) for older babies just as bad? because i sometimes alternate his cereals for something different and use (states it's for 9mth old's +) Farex muesli with apple and my DS cant get enough of it. My DD loved this particular one too.
I dont think its the parents fault for feeding their 4 mth old, baby rice cereal. It's absolutely flogged. The parents just think they are doing what everyone esle daoes and the packaging says it's all good/added iron....so it must be ok, right?! If it's soooo bad for babies, Why hasnt it all been taken off the market for false advertising?!
