In numerous national publications today, we are once again reminded that lowering the risk of diabetics for vascular events (MI/heart attack, CVA/stroke etc.) and death is far more complex than lowering measures such as cholesterol and blood pressure. Note these articles: Abbott’s TriCor Fails To Beat A Sugar PillMarch 14, 2010 - 9:58 amMatthew HerperForbes.com ATLANTA — A popular triglyceride-lowerin g drug that has been taken by millions of Americans failed to prevent heart disease in a big federal study being presented today.

This makes perfect sense since tablet pcs are already in use at Pfizer.  Im a big One Note fan myself and the article here states that users are basically jumping in on their own.  At Microsoft OneNote has almost passed up Power Point too.  Sharing with OneNote is great too with SharePoint and secure.  I use Office Live which gives me a small web based Share Point server and One Note files can be shared easily enough and integrated with a set of pst files in Outlook for easy access.   Pfizer Using New Algorithmic Formulas Loaded On Tablet PCs To Track Pills Sample   read more

The crime statistics of world's five most dangerous cities are disheartening and shocking. With such high rates of homicide, robberies and violence these cities deservedly bear the names of 'the places of chaos and death' or 'the murder capitals of the world'. Despite the scary data, some of them still remain wanted tourist destinations, though extreme caution is strongly advised when visiting. 5. Cape Town. South Africa. 62 killings per 100 000 residents Crime has been a major problem in South Africa (both for locals and travelers) for many years now, and the murder and robbery   read more

Borrowers in the higher end homes are sticking their feet into cement bricks at their homes and not budging for foreclosures. Not literally, but homeowners are not being as reluctant for the cash for keys scenarios anymore. Hollister is seeing a growing trend of borrowers, who have received foreclosure notices, seeking legal aid to keep them stay in their homes in order to allow time for loan modifications or additional months without payment. Borrowers are arguing that the lenders never disclosed the terms of the loan or never really qualified for the loan which creates a problem for the revolving   read more

Placing one’s head in the open mouth of an animal considered the deadliest in Africa isn’t a choice we’d all make, but that didn’t stop this zebra from leaning directly into a hippopotamus’s jaws at Zurich zoo. Hippos are notoriously bad-tempered and aggressive creatures, having killed hundreds of humans down the years, and will attack other animals they deem a threat. They also possess a bite so powerful it can break small boats in two. So did this zebra pay for its action by losing its head? Fortunately, no. The zebra was actually cleaning the hippo’s teeth, which   read more

I am baffled and also sad at some of the discussions going on. People, this blog is a diet blog, yes. But the message is Eat Right. Get HEALTHY. Not ‘Get Anorexic’. Or ‘Get As Thin As Possible’. This is not the site to promote those things. If you are working out daily, eating healthily (or trying to, anyway, it’s hard), and not a lazy slob, then IT’S ALL GOOD. I weight 117-ish pounds and I’m really short. 5′1. I have friends my size who weigh like, 95 pounds. I have not been that weight since grade seven. But you know what? Our bodies are all   read more

US Ambassador complains to Pakistani Government that media reports have exposed the location of American residences inside Lahore’s military zone, but fails to mention why US personnel with diplomatic cover have been found at wrong places, sometimes carrying weapons that diplomats are not supposed to Lahore’s military zone is not only exposed to covert Indian operatives but also to undercover US agents with their suspicious heavy-duty equipment placed in several houses inside a gated community right in the heart of the city’s military area. This has been going on since 2007. ISLAMABAD   read more

A photographer over at Flicker had something interesting to say the other day about this old portrait of an unknown young woman on my photostream, offering this statement: “Too bad that most contemporary portrait photographers aren’t up to this level,” he commented. He made a valid point when considering all the tacky, over-staged, poorly-lit and ridiculously-expensi ve photographs that are mailed out every high school graduation season. The photographer who staged the photo, above, shunned fancy backdrops and silly props to capture this portrait that I found in an old family   read more
