(NBC News) -- Few Americans can find the time to work out every day, but a new study shows that just a few minutes a day can produce huge benefits for your heart.
According to new research, just 5 minutes of running a day has been proven to reduce the risk of dying from heart disease.
"Our study showed that only fairly small doses of exercise of running were needed to produce these profound benefits," said Dr. Carl Lavie, who works with The John Ochsner Heart and Vascular Institute in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Dr. Carl Lavie and his colleagues followed 55,000 adults for 15 years and that found runners on average lived three years longer than others.

Onto the blog for today, here at PathtoFertility.
It's Friday.
It's Halloween.
Traditionally a child-based holiday that involves tricks and treats.
There's the kicker of infertility, fertility treatment and trying to conceive.
There's sweetness in trying to have a baby. Anticipatory feelings of delight in seeing the line on the pregnancy test turn the right color, realizing that you are on your way to expanding your family, knowing the reaction of when you announce the news to your friends and family.
Maybe this is a moment you've waited for since you were very little or maybe it's been a relatively new realization that you would like to become a parent. Either way, there is often giddiness, excitement and a touch or more of apprehension about the dramatic changes that will occur in your life.
But you're ready. You want it. You arrange your life to accommodate this new, important life phase.
That's the treat. When it happens easily, it's a treat. You float on cloud nine. Or you're sick as a dog. Either way, you are on your way.
And here's the trick. Sometimes it does not work that way. Sometimes the anticipation turns scary, not even wanting to hope, for fear that the disappointment of not becoming pregnant, AGAIN, will flood your senses and emotions. Will devastate you, at least briefly.
I've been experiencing a lot of treats and lot of tricks lately through the women that I get to know through Ladies Night In and Fertile Yoga. Through many of you, through this blog.
Many successful pregnancies and babies. Absolutely heartwarming and affirming to see pictures, get to visit and see families blooming. I can't tell you how much it means to each of us here at RMACT to get the pictures of your babies when they are born and to be updated. We love it. I love it.
Tricks again though, are so very painful. There really needs to be a new word for infertility, pregnancy loss pain and ending fertility treatment. Painful just doesn't cover it. While we are not personally experiencing it, we do feel it. We feel your pain. Your loss.
We grieve with you.
The trick of having the struggle of infertility, making the decision to seek help, go through fertility testing and treatment and not having it work is, as I said, beyond words. Some of us accept it as part of our lives and are able to treat it one day at a time, without being pulled into the tidal waves.
Sometimes, it's just too much. Just one crushing disappointment too many.
How many people out there stop fertility treatment even if there is a possibility of being successful the next time? Through sheer exhaustion, physically, emotionally and even financially, there are those that say, "enough is enough".
Is there a treat at the door closing and another opening? Is it donor egg/sperm? Is it surrogacy? Is it fostering a child? Adoption? Is it choosing childfree living?
Is there a treat simply for making a decision, even if it's one that you in no way, ever wanted to make? Is that even a decision or just simply something you were forced into, had no choice at all about.
Today, whether you are enjoying the treats of fertility treatment or grieving the tricks, we are here for you. We care.
I care.
Please let us know how you are doing. We're going to explore all those questions that I've asked, together. You are not alone in this. That, I promise. That, I can guarantee. That is one treat upon which you can depend.

Reconnecting with the Universe
I think we have gotten away from the natural order of things. With the advent of modern technology many of us are less in touch with nature than ever before. Days can go by without our feet ever touching the earth. Notice how long it has been since you have walked in the woods, stood by the ocean, or marveled at the full moon. Temperature controlled climates, fluorescent lighting and our laptops allow us to work whenever and wherever we please. No longer are we bound to the rhythms of the day and season. And yet we are not separate from our environment; there is a relationship between us and our surroundings. The laws of the universe apply to all; I have always found comfort in this.
Fall is a time of turning inward. We gather in the harvest and reap the rewards of our work. Like the sap in the tree moving inwards towards the root, we consolidate and store. The expansive outward energy of summer wanes as yang is moving into yin. The organ associated with fall is the Lung. This is a time we may be susceptible to fall allergies or colds and care should be paid to support our defensive (wei) qi. The emotion associated with the season is sorrow or grief. With the withering of leaves on the trees and energy withdrawing inward, some of us will experience feelings of grief and loss during the transition of the seasons, as we experience a shift in energy and weather. Like the function of the Lung, autumn is a time of both taking in and letting go.
I am one of those people. I always feel a little sad in the fall as the warm long days of summer are over and the colder days of winter loom ahead. This year instead of ignoring fall and pushing through the transition, I plan to take time to be a part of it, and revel in the parts I do like: long walks with my dog through the fallen leaves, the beauty of the fall foliage, the crisp snap in the air as I leave for work in the morning, smart wool socks, building a fire and cozying up with a good book, the bounty of apples, squash and root vegetables. All these things help me connect with the season.
As the energy of the season turns inward so does my own. For me this means taking care of the interiors in my life, both in my home and my being. As I will be spending more time in doors, I have a renewed interest in making the space harmonious and tackling some projects I have let go over the summer. For instance, I might finally get around to hanging those pictures in the living room that have been stacked in the corner for ages.
I also feel the pull to do those things that matter most for my emotional interior, like meditation, reading, dancing, cooking and time with family and friends. All these small things help me ease the transition into a new season and reconnect with the universe with which I am a part.

You've thrown out the birth control and you've actively been trying to become pregnant. It's been a few months or more of trying to conceive. Or maybe it's been a few years or more.
How do you know if you're having a problem getting pregnant? Nothing seems to be wrong. You get your period regularly. Or you don't. But you're healthy and everything seems to be ok.
You don't want to jump to conclusions or create a problem for yourself where none exists.
So here are a few, very accepted and standard guidelines on how long it should take to become pregnant if everything is working well with you and your heterosexual partner. (Heterosexual because if you are in a homosexual relationship, while you may not have any fertility problems, you do need to add a sex cell from the opposite sex to become pregnant. That is not necessarily a conception problem.)
So, if you are in a heterosexual relationship and are sexually intimate, here's what you need to know about becoming pregnant and when you should investigate whether there are some problems:
Below are some causes of fertility difficulties or infertility. Perhaps you recognize yourself in one or more of the causes. If so, please do find some help. ~Lisa Rosenthal
Primary infertility is defined as when a couple faces challenges with their first pregnancy. In other words, they have trouble conceiving or maintaining a pregnancy. The term is also used when a woman has never had a successful birth of a child or when a man has never successfully impregnated a woman.
The causes of infertility can be both physical and emotional, and can be experienced by both men and women.
Causes of Female Infertility:
Additionally, there can be egg-related problems, such as egg production in the ovaries, movement of the eggs from the ovary to the uterus, attachment of the eggs to the uterine lining, and survival of the egg or embryo once it has attached to the lining.
Causes of Male Infertility:
Additionally, there can be sperm-related issues including a decrease in the number of sperm produced by the man, a blockage of the sperms' release, or sperm that do not function properly.
At RMACT, we create a custom fertility treatment plan for our patients that combines a medical approach to resolving infertility with complementary care services including support groups, individual and couples counseling, yoga classes, acupuncture, and nutritional advice.
At RMACT, we're here for you on your path to fertility.
It's been some week in the fertility treatment world. Below are just a few of the happenings that have gone on.
Conversation about egg freezing, vitrification and the difference between the two, Katherine Scott, BA,MSc, RMACT's IVF Laboratory Manager, weighed in on that one. So did Rachel Gurevich with a blog written just for us. If you missed it, please do read it, Rachel's point of view about egg freezing is well worth the look. Amy Demma, Terri Davidson, Sharon LaMothe and Darlene Pinkerton also expressed their opinions, always appreciated. Who's paying for what, why and why not were just a few of the questions asked about Facebook and Apple's new policies regarding fertility coverage. We were lucky enough to get lots of opinions and feedback.
We were all supporting SingleMomstoBe and getting the word out there about a fabulous, free event, "Single Women Pursuing Parenthood," geared towards educating, supporting and networking for single women who are going ahead with creating their families. Starring RMACT's own Surgical Director, Spencer Richlin, MD; Lisa Schuman, LCSW, RMACT's Director of Mental Health Services will also be speaking as well as Jane Mattes, LCSW, Founder of Single Mothers By Choice. This event is free, but registration is required. To Register, please call Courtney at 203-750-7427 or email firstname.lastname@example.com and enter "11/2 Event" in the subject line. Brunch will be served and the event will be hosted at the EVEN HOTEL NORWALK: 426 Main Avenue 10:30 AM - 12:00 PM. All are welcome in any stage of their parenting journey. Read here for Dr. Richlin's blog about what is making this event so compelling to attend. And please share this on your Facebook page, in your Tweets, etc.
As we move our way to the end of October, we had a personal account of a breast cancer awareness walk from one of our RMACT team members. She walked and we were moved. How lucky we are to have such passionate and committed people to work with. Is there anyone reading this who has not been personally affected by breast cancer?
A few more important things to consider. One, personhood is on the rise again. It's hard for me to talk about without getting kind of loud and very upset. Resolve does a great job explaining what it's about and why it's important even if you don't live in North Dakota or Colorado. Read here about personhood for more information. It matters. Whether you are in fertility treatment or you are remaining childfree by choice or you simply believe that people should be able to build their families, it matters. We'll talk about it more next week.
I realize that this barely scratches the surface of what's going on in the fertility world this week. Those are some of the big things. Here are a few of the so called smaller things that felt pretty big to me as well.
Ladies Night In - Trumbull. Big laughs. Lots of gratitude. Beautiful, honest, open women sharing hopes, dreams and disappointments. The genuine pleasure and excitement that greeted the announcement of a pregnancy. Discussing IVF and demystifying the process as well as taking the scare element out of it as only someone who's been through it could do. An honor and privilege to be there with them.
Fertile Yoga tonight in Norwalk. One of the lovely students showed up with home baked cookies to share and a homemade stew just for me with ingredients specially picked out. As a thank you to her and to the rest of the class, a guided meditation, a mantra and a new tool to help break them out of obsessive style thinking with regards to pregnancy and fertility treatment. There is something incredibly tender and loving about taking care of someone else. My thanks to my students who did that tonight for me. An unexpected delight.
Up for next week? Well, we will see. Meanwhile, there's Fertile Yoga Friday night in Bethel at the beautiful Yogaspace from 6-7:15. Hope to see you there.
From Reproductive Medicine Associates of Connecticut (RMACT)'s IVF Laboratory Manager, Katherine Scott, an explanation of egg (oocytes) freezing procedures, as promised. She's busy answering the following questions and more:
What is egg freezing? What is vitrification? Does it matter where you freeze your eggs? What are the chances of pregnancy after thawing the oocytes? What do we know and what do we still not know about freezing?
This is not about feelings or thoughts or ideas, this is about science and facts and explanations that are based on research and data. This is about differences and similarities. This is about truly understanding from someone who can explain it from top to bottom. ~Lisa Rosenthal
This is a term that is often used and sometimes misused to mean cryopreservation of a woman's oocytes for fertility preservation.
Vitrification and warming of human oocytes (women's eggs) is a high complexity process. Each step must be followed precisely using exact amounts of cryoprotectants in the correct order in order to achieve the best possible outcome. One needs to remember that every woman is born with a finite number of oocytes; no additional oocytes will ever be created. In humans the oocytes are the largest human cell measuring around 0.1mm, however bigger is not always better. Fertility preservation for women has been historically less efficient due to the fragile nature of oocytes. Oocytes have a large surface area, high water content, and delicate chromosomal arrangement. Slow cooling oocytes meant they were actually frozen and stored in a large volume of cryoprotectant solution. It was the freezing itself that was a major concern, because when a solution freezes it forms ice crystals which can cause the cells to lyse (break).
Reproductive Medicine Associates of Connecticut (RMACT) uses a process that is quite different and is called vitrification. Vitrification is different from slow cooling because the oocytes are never actually frozen; instead, they are taken to a glass like state using a specialized type of media and container, removing any possibility of ice crystals forming and cells breaking. Survival rates are greatly improved using vitrification as opposed to slow cooling in preserving oocytes.
RMACT only uses the vitrification process to cryopreserve our patients' oocytes. When the patient is ready to move forward with starting their family, the lab will warm their oocytes on the day of the patients choosing and fertilize them using the ICSI process. The blastocyst embryos are then transferred on Day 5 of a fertility treatment cycle with any supernumerary embryos being vitrified for future cycles.
RMACT's IVF Laboratory Manager, Katherine Scott, was one of the authors of the 2012 study demonstrating that implantation rates from vitrified oocytes are equivalent to fresh oocytes and that there is no increased risk of aneuploidy (chromosomal abnormalities) once embryos reach the blastocyst stage. See more: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22608316
Today we are taking a break from the conversation about egg freezing and what it is, what it is not, what it could be. Tomorrow, please read what Katherine Scott, Reproductive Medicine Associates of Connecticut (RMACT) IVF Laboratory Manager, describes as the medical and scientific description of egg freezing versus vitrification.
For today, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Me? I don't want any more awareness about breast cancer. I want a cure. And a cure takes money. A cure takes enough of us saying that it's time, it's overtime. Demanding a cure says that we are done losing beloved sisters, mothers, daughters, aunts, friends and wives. Taking action is what's necessary and so today's blog is about just that; taking action.
Following is a touching and compelling account of an experience at The American Cancer Society – Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk, at Sherwood Island State Park, in Westport, CT, undertaken by one of RMACT's team members. We are so proud to be able to honor one of our beloved employees by posting the thoughts and ideas that ran through her mind while she spent her time and energy at this important event.
While she has asked to remain anonymous, and I of course will honor her wishes, I also applaud her commitment to a cause that she feels so strongly about. I thank her personally, for taking on the demon of breast cancer and fighting back.
It is inspiring~ Lisa Rosenthal
As I walked over the hill toward the beach where the Making Strides event was being held, I was overwhelmed by the color pink. There were so many different hues that it was breathtaking. I felt proud to be looking at the strong survivors who fought such a difficult battle as they walked out of the survivor tent. Their pink sashes were worn so proudly. My husband, who has never walked for a cause before, asked if they are all this amazing. I couldn't believe the powerful energy was even affecting my husband.
As I looked around to see if I knew anyone there, I saw dogs in pink t-shirts, young girls with pink and white pom-poms in their ponytails, young boys in pink headbands, and spouses who proudly displayed their pink shirts. It didn't stop there; among the walkers were sons and daughters who were walking for their mothers and grandmothers who had passed away from this cruel disease. It was so touching to be able to stand and walk with such great people. I was truly honored.
The announcer called all the survivors to the starting line to kick off the walk. They made a short speech and then sang happy birthday to everyone. It was so moving that tears rolled down my cheeks. I watched as a sea of people flooded the beach. There must have been more than two thousand people walking. I waited about twenty minutes, then began my walk. I was walking for all my friends and family members who fought cancer; some who were able to beat "the monster" and others who weren't so lucky. I started remembering my mom's friend, Audrey, who was the most loving and amazing person I have ever met. Unfortunately, she passed away during her hospice transportation from the hospital to her apartment. That was the first time I learned of cancer and from that moment on I knew I didn't like the disease. It is a plague that has since taken many loved ones from me.
Halfway through the race, as I reached the first water table, I looked back. There were so many people behind me. I realized my initial guess of two thousand people was totally wrong. There were many more people than that. I do not know the actual count but I wouldn't be surprised if there were five thousand participants. The momentum of the walk started and before I knew it I was at the home stretch. I looked over to my right and I could see the line of walkers still going strong at the starting line. I was speechless, amazed, and thrilled at how many people were making strides.
At the finish line, there were teams in clusters taking pictures of themselves and each other with the finish line banner in the background. Then out of the corner of my eye, I saw an elderly couple, late seventies to early eighties, holding hands as they walked over the finish line. They looked so proud to be able to walk. I could see how much this meant to them because she was a survivor. They were a little winded, as we all were from the autumn's cold air. My husband, brother-in-law, and I just stood there for a moment to take everything in. We were all honored to be surrounded by everyone and participate in such an amazing event.

The egg-freezing debate has the media up in arms over whether these perks, soon to be offered by Apple and already available to Facebook employees, are good or bad for women.
It's 2014, people: let women decide what they want to do.
Now, I'm not saying that egg-freezing is a great solution to work-family balance. I'm not saying I think most women should go for it.
I really think it should be used only in very special cases or in case of medical need.
However, that should not be my decision. It belongs to the woman making the decision about what to do with her body.
Just like I don't want corporations, governments, or insurance plans to decide what birth control I can use, I don't think they should have a say in how I plan my family or handle my fertility.
The biggest fire in the debate is whether Apple and Facebook are somehow trying to hint that women should freeze their eggs so they can advance their careers.
But can't the same be argued for covering birth control? Or fertility-ending procedures like vasectomies or tube tying?
Medically speaking, birth control is way more likely to help a woman push off having kids than egg-freezing. Egg-freezing doesn't keep you from getting pregnant...
Remember, too, that some insurance plans don't cover egg-freezing even in the case of medical need.
I'd be willing to bet that even those that do cover egg-freezing before cancer treatment may not cover cryopreservation for women with a family history of early menopause or primary ovarian insufficiency.
These women have just as much of a medical need to consider egg-freezing as a cancer patient, but they probably wouldn't be covered. But Apple and Facebook's plans would cover them.
Coverage, in whatever way, should be celebrated, not demonized.
There's definitely some disagreement in the medical community on whether egg-freezing should be used to put off childbearing. The American Society of Reproductive Medicine and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists don't recommend it.
I agree with them. However... no one is currently saying it shouldn't be an option. Only that women who choose that path should be well-informed of all the risks.
As an aside, egg-freezing is not the only optional medical procedure being covered by insurance providers that may have more risks than benefits.
For example, there's lap band surgery.
This elective surgery is marketed to obese individuals who have not been able to lose weight through traditional means.
The surgery is highly controversial. Many physicians are against it as a solution to obesity, and for a good percentage of people, it's not a good long-term solution. It also has some seriously long term side effects. It's way more risky that egg-freezing.
But it's still covered.
It's not a big shock that there's debate over this issue. It follows along with the general pattern that tends to occur with all women's health issues in this country, especially reproductive issues.
There's this theme that women can't be trusted to make informed choices.
It also follows the pattern of fear and stigma that surround assisted reproductive technologies.
But that's okay. We know you can make choices for yourself. We also know that sigma only lessens when things are talked about.
We, as a nation, need to talk about all these issues.
Let them talk... maybe it'll lead to even more coverage for fertility.
For more on this debate, including some things to consider before you freeze your eggs, please read my article here at About Fertility.
Here are some additional comments about the egg freezing debate that arose last week after the announcement that Facebook and Apple are "paying" for egg freezing. These comments were made by some of the top professionals in the fertility field. The PathtoFertility blog on Friday elicited some of these comments. But like any conversation, of course, it took on a life of its own. Please send any thoughts or comments to me--I will keep them anonymous if you would like--at email@example.com. This is an important conversation and it's a way to become more educated, especially for younger woman. I was fascinated by what I learned last week. What do you take away from this conversation?
Thank you for such a well thought out blog. I agree that this is most likely a marketing ploy as well as a recruitment tactic on the part of APPLE and FB. I also agree with Sharon that women need to fully understand the full process, risks, and success rates before undergoing an egg retrieval to freeze eggs. With that said, I am glad to see that this is bringing the issue of women's fertility and egg quality related to age to the forefront. There is such a lack of information and education for women about this subject. The reality is that women can't wait as long as men before having their children. We are taught we can have it all and postpone having children, but not many women understand the risks that come with that postponement...potential infertility. Egg freezing is not perfect. Egg freezing is not a guarantee that a woman will have viable eggs when she is ready to consider using them...but I still think it is worth careful consideration. Will APPLE and FB also pay for embryo freezing? Embryo freezing is actually much more successful in producing a child than egg freezing. If a woman has a spouse or partner, then this offers an even greater option for women who are in a relationship but want to postpone pregnancy. I haven't seen any comments about this.
Not to stir up this pot even more... but...if people are offended by what is going on with APPLE and FB and feel it is simply enticing women to prolong pregnancy, how do you think they will react to the news that some of the IVF centers are now offering women the incentive of getting a couple of frozen eggs for free if they will donate eggs to the center for their egg bank...Egg banks that then sell that woman's eggs to others for a profit? On the surface it looks like a nice gesture to give a donor 1-2 eggs for freezing for herself, but all the literature says a donor needs 10-20 frozen eggs to have a successful pregnancy. What the egg banks are offering is not going to get women what they want or need with egg freezing, but it is going to entice women to donate eggs to that center's egg bank in the belief that they are getting the golden ticket of some frozen eggs for their own use and for free. In the meanwhile, the center is making a profit off of her donation and she could end up with nothing. This is happening now. I find this far more disturbing than anything that APPLE or FB might do. I look forward to your response.
~Darlene Cummings Pinkerton (@apmpresident)
I personally believe that every healthy woman who is considering egg freezing so she can have an "insurance policy" for her future child(ren) needs to be fully educated on what are the possible percentages that her eggs will make the thaw, fertilize and become the pregnancy she was waiting for. And what of the cost of IVF because NOW that she is using frozen eggs the only way to use them is via IVF. Let's not forget the cost of medication both for the egg retrieval but also for the embryo transfer. (12 weeks of progesterone shots anyone??) So while I think it's great that some companies are expanding their family building option coverage, education is still a key factor for choosing the seemingly convenient choice of putting off child raring for a few more years. (But still with no guarantees!)
~Sharon LaMothe (@SharonLaMothe)
I don't think anyone is arguing the tremendous benefits (potential?) of egg freezing. And for those of us with young daughters, a huge hooray. Even here in this thread, though, we are giving corporations way too much credit. While the outcome may very well be (not sure how it can turn out any other way), that women will have lessened the burden of career pursuits and or finding a partner in a culture where marriage/family making is of less priority to a certain demographic, I find it pretty far-fetched that we assign this level of awareness, compassion or sensitivity to decision makers at a company like Apple. Yes, the benefits to women are many (although someone else, I think it was Risa, cited the economically challenged woman for whom this benefit might be a deal breaker in terms of optimizing her fertility)....if you have been recruited by and are hired by Apple, for the most part, you have already been wooed with the promise of a significant financial package with all sorts of bells and whistles. All of us in this field understand the benefit of this, through our own personal journeys, through the folks we assist and for some as we think about our own daughter's fertility. So, on all of these matters, I agree with all of you (who couldn't, who wouldn't?).
~Amy Demma (@AmyDemma)
Honestly, you would think Apple and Facebook were offering their employees exposure to Ebola with the amount of controversy that has been generated from this news. The sky is not falling because they did this. It may not be perfect, but what I am most surprised about is the low opinion of the intellectual capacity of female Facebook/Apple employees from people who consider themselves feminists.

Dion Primo - H.O.M.E
Artist: Dion Primo
Producer: Dee-Ami
Album: H.O.M.E (High Off Music Everyday)
Avg Rating: 3.0 ( 1 votes )
If your typical artist's relationship with music were a romantic one, "functional" would be the last word you'd use to describe it: one partner demands the lion's share of the other's time and energy, only fulfilling the other's worldly needs as her or she feels like it. As ATL rapper Dion Primo puts it on new single/album title track H.O.M.E., it's less like true love than it is like an addiction—despite the pain, though, he keeps coming back for more. Complete with Dee-Ami's hard-hitting synth production, this is just the beginning of the freshness in store on H.O.M.E. (the album), scheduled to hit the 'net September 1.

'Dancing With the Stars': J.R. Martinez Promises to Behave at Rehearsal (Video)
The frontrunner and partner Karina Smirnoff tell THR about the semifinals, while she tries to convince him to focus.
The judges seemed to make one thing clear during week 8 of Dancing With the Stars. Barring some unforeseen natural dance disaster, J.R. Martinez and partner Karina Smirnoff are guaranteed a spot in the finale.
After skating through two perfect-scoring performances, the two got the obligatory safety from elimination first thing during Tuesday's results show, where The Hollywood Reporter spoke with them backstage to see how Martinez planned to focus with the semifinals up next.

"Imagine for 12 weeks, hearing the same person telling you to do this and do that," Smirnoff tells THR. "It's hard."
It's also hard to keep Martinez from goofing around. The week's rehearsal package shows that has behind-the-scenes antics have only been escalating closer to the finale. But he says that's all behind him.
"It's all worth it," he says. "It's amazing how all the feelings and emotions you feel in rehearsals, when you get that great score, all those emotions disappear and there's just overwhelming joy."
PHOTOS: 'Dancing With the Stars' Season 13 Cast Official Photos
He also sees the daunting task of performing three dances in one broadcast. Monday's show finds them dancing the Argentine Tango, Paso Doble and the traditional Dancing With the Stars relay dance.
And for part, he has a rather unorthodox plan.
"We can see it. It's two weeks away, and four couples are left," he says. "I'm going to have to find a strategy to exhaust the rest of the contestants."

During the family's brief stay in Dagestan, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev attended School No. 1 in Makhachkala, the provincial capital. The principal's secretary at School No. 1, Irina Bandurina, told the AP that Tsarnaev left for the U.S. in March 2002.
Ruslan Tsarni, the uncle of the two suspects, said he was not sure whether someone had radicalized them, but said it would be wrong to blame their father.
"It's not my brother, who just moved back to Russia, who spent his life bringing bread to that table, fixing cars," Tsarni said at his house in Montgomery Village, Maryland.
Tsarni said his brother had little influence over his sons.

Iran Navy to Deploy to Mediterranean
Related News
MOSCOW, January 16 (RIA Novosti) - Iran will deploy a fleet of warships to the Mediterranean Sea, Navy chief Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari said on Wednesday.
"The Navy's 24th fleet of warships will patrol the north of the Indian Ocean, the Gulf of Aden, Bab-el-Mandeb, the Red Sea, Suez Canal and the Mediterranean Sea for three months and will even sail as far as southeastern Asian countries," Sayyari was quoted by Press TV as saying.
The 23rd fleet of warships will return to the country next week, he added.
Referring to the Navy's recent drill, dubbed Velayat 91, Sayyari said the maneuver displayed Iran's naval capability and its ability to counter any threat against the interests of the Islamic Republic.
On Friday, Iran Navy launched six-day naval drills codenamed, dubbed Velayat 91, to "defend its maritime borders and maintain lasting peace in the region."
The exercises covered a vast area including the Strait of Hormuz, the Sea of Oman, north of the Indian Ocean, the Gulf of Aden and Bab-el-Mandeb Strait.

A Letter to Lady Margaret Cavendish Holles-Harley, when a Child
MY noble, lovely, little Peggy,
Let this my First Epistle beg ye,
At dawn of morn, and close of even,
To lift your heart and hands to Heaven.
In double duty say your prayer:
Our Father first, then Notre Pere.
And, dearest child, along the day,
In every thing you do and say,
Obey and please my lord and lady,
So God shall love and angels aid ye.
If to these precepts you attend,
No second letter need I send,
And so I rest your constant friend.

Hey, YOU! Tired of using common sense and personal experience to confirm really obvious assertions? Then you should try science. Yes, through use of our patented scientific method, science will have your theories looking less questionable and more sound in no time.
Just look at this study from Syracuse University Psychology Professor Joshua Smyth. At first all four groups of gamers look exactly the same. But just apply the magic of science and you'll see that the group playing MMO Dark Age of Camelot spent on average twice as long with the game on a weekly basis, resulting in "significantly lower overall health and poorer sleep." Once again, science improves our lives by confirming something that every gamer already knows.
Remember, that's science: Confirming observations since ancient Egypt.

Former SLAC director Persis Drell to head Stanford School of Engineering

Great news!
(Just a point of clarification, though: Wellesley College is a women's college so Drell would have not been dominated "by male-dominated class[mates] during her undergraduate years at Wellesley College.")
a resident of Duveneck/St. Francis
on Jun 4, 2014 at 10:14 am
Fortunately, Stanford's School of Engineering under Jim Plummer's leadership has substantially increased the number of women faculty and students over the last 15 years, so Persis Drell won't be the sole female presence. At 17%, there is still effort to be made to attract world-class women engineering faculty members to Stanford, but it's going in the right direction. Professor Drell will be one of four women leading Stanford's seven schools for the 2014-15 academic year.

-> Katie. My experience is a few years prior. In my undergrad years, Wellesley and MIT students could pretty freely take classes at the other institution. Travel time was a barrier. If she were taking classes at MIT (say, in atomic physics), male-dominated sounds about right. Yes, Wellesley is a women's college.

We had a room which backed onto the Tennis court with a sitting out area which was great. My husband sat out there with a drink and was visited by a flock of friendly sparrow, two large rabbits, a family of quail, several gulls and two ducks who eventually followed him back into our room! Apart from this the pool was an unusual shape but good for a swim and the spa pool was great. The buffet supper was good value with a wide choice of food and as much as you could eat. - Anonymous

BTS Parenthood 603
If you're wondering how, exactly, Amber and Ryan could have conceived a child while he was laid up in the hospital on "Parenthood," don't expect Matt Lauria to spell it out for you.
"I don't think I should be the one to explain, physiologically, how it works," he says when questioned about the logistics of their whole situation.
The moment between the two characters was just a true expression of their feelings. "You don't really have to understand every part about what drives the action behind this scene," he tells Zap2it. "This, at an essential level, is about two people who care immensely about one another being present with each other. And that's what led to that ultimate embrace. I think that may not have been the most planned interaction."
Also not planned? The child Amber (Mae Whitman) is currently expecting. Lauria says that Ryan's reaction to the news when he returns to the show on Thursday (Oct. 9) won't be what you think.
"I think the reaction will be somewhat unexpected," he says. "I think that what people can expect is to see these two people who have this very complicated and loving history working against imposed odds to make it work. I think that definitively Ryan and Amber's relationship has been, 'We love each other so much; how do we overcome these unavoidable, un-ignorable obstacles?'"
While you'll have to wait and see how the situation plays out, Lauria says the reunion between the two characters is a very intense moment: "I will say it's a doozy, this episode coming up, with them seeing each other for the first time in a while — since the hospital. It is definitely a pretty charged moment."

Military attacks mental health stigmas
Wednesday - 6/23/2010, 5:03pm EDT
By Rachel Stevens
Federal News Radio
The stigma of seeking treatment is a leading obstacle to dealing with mental health concerns, military officials say.
Several military leaders testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee on Tuesday about their progress in coping with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), traumatic brain injuries (TBI) and reducing the suicide rate among service personnel.
Army vice Chief of Staff Gen. Peter Chiarelli says the military is working to provide better access to care through technology. He says a program has recently been implemented to provide soldiers with instantaneous online counseling. This, he says, can avoid stigma problems by keeping needed aid confidential.
"This generation in many times opens up much greater using . . . technology . . . than you and I sitting across the room right here. And they really feel they are able to get at some of these issues and do a good evaluation," Chiarelli says.
Veterans Health Administration (VHA) acting Principal Deputy Under Secretary for health Dr. Robert Jesse agrees that technology would be "vital." He says VHA is looking to develop smartphone applications to increase access to mental health services.
Marine Corps Assistant Commandant Gen. James Amos says his branch has launched a special telephone crisis hotline ran by Marines, for Marines. Jesse says these types of hotlines have saved over 9,000 lives.
Jesse says VHA also has recently launched a similar online chat service that allows troubled veterans to get counseling anonymously through the Internet.
"Younger folks are much more used to chatlines on the Web than they are to having phone conversations, and that's been an emerging way to contact younger people" who make up the majority of military suicide cases, Jesse says.
Jesse says the anonymity of the Internet could reduce the fear of seeking treatment. "Using new technologies that the people who need it understand- and prefer to use- I think is going to be vital," he says.
Each panelist also says they are committed to training leadership about the importance of mental health care for soldiers. This, they say, may reduce the cultural stigma of treatment.
Vice Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Jonathan Greenert says the Navy has already hosted awareness and training workshops at 20 locations in five countries this year and has plans to hold five more. These are meant to teach soldiers to look for warning signs in their peers and to encourage them to get treatment when needed.
The Navy has also created a training video and several interactive training exercises "aimed at strengthening a culture of support," Greenert says. He says these efforts have already reached over 120,000 personnel.
The panelists also say greater scientific understanding of brain functioning, increased recruitment of mental health professionals, and preparing soldiers mentally for the stresses of war are important steps.
Each says dealing with mental health issues is at the top of his branch's agenda.
"We are committed to exploring every possible solution and using every resource available to us," says Amos. "We will not rest until we have turned this around."
Rachel Stevens is an intern at Federal News Radio.
