HealthDon’t Drink The (warm) Water, Study Says by dkingsman82(op): 5:24pm On Oct 01, 2014
Americans can take a warning from a University of Florida study of bottled water in China ─ don’t drink the liquid if you’ve left it somewhere warm for a long time.
Plastic water bottles are made from polyethylene terephthalate. When heated, the material releases the chemicals antimony and bisphenol A, commonly called BPA.
While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has said BPA is not a major concern at low levels found in beverage containers, it continues to study the chemical’s impacts. Some health officials, including those at the Mayo Clinic, say the chemical can cause negative effects on children’s health.
And antimony is considered a carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer, part of the World Health Organisation.
UF soil and water science professor Lena Ma led a research team that studied chemicals released in 16 brands of bottled water kept at 158 degrees Fahrenheit for four weeks, what researchers deemed a “worst-case scenario” for human consumption.
Of the 16 brands, only one exceeded the EPA standard for antimony and BPA. Based on the study, storage at warm temperatures would seem to not be a big problem, Ma said. But she said more research is needed to know if other brands are safe.
Ma’s study found that as bottles warmed over the four-week period, antimony and BPA levels increased.
“If you store the water long enough, there may be a concern,” said Ma, an Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences faculty member who has a research program at Nanjing University in China.
The UF scientist warned against leaving bottled water in a hot garage for weeks on end or in your car all day during the summer.
Because of what Ma calls cultural differences and because Chinese citizens have less faith in their tap water, some leave bottled water in their car trunks for weeks. China consumed 9.6 billion gallons of bottled water in 2011, making that country the commodity’s largest market.
By comparison, Americans drank 9.1 billion gallons of bottled water that year, according to the International Bottled Water Association. While most Americans don’t store bottled water in their cars for extended periods, they often keep it there for a day or two. Drinking that water occasionally won’t be dangerous, but doing so regularly could cause health issues, she said. And it’s not just water containers that merit more study, Ma said.
“More attention should be given to other drinks packaged with polyethylene terephthalate plastic, such as milk, coffee and acidic juice,” she said. “We only tested the pure water. If it is acidic juice, the story may be different.”
Although not part of the study, Ma touts tap water over bottled water. Both are regulated by the federal government, tap by the EPA and bottled by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
The study is published in this month’s edition of the journalEnvironmental Pollution.

RomanceHow To Get Out Of An Abusive Relationship by dkingsman82(op): 7:25pm On Sep 19, 2014
Finding yourself in an abusive relationship with someone you have given your heart to can be one of the most painful experiences to endure, and taking the step to leave can be very difficult as well.

If you have made up your mind that you want to leave your abuser, but not sure how to gather the strength to finally do so, here are some of helpful things to consider that may make your leaving easier.

Choose happiness over pain

Realise that the ball of your life is in your hands. Don't allow anyone to cheat you of enjoying your life to the fullest.

Being in an abusive relationship will in no way do you good.

Though sometimes you may feel obliged to stay in the relationship for fear of the unknown, always remember that you never know the possibility of happiness that the new life may throw your way.

Realise your worth

The fact that you are thinking of leaving the relationship means a voice inside you is telling you that you deserve better.

It is important to love yourself enough to let go of anything that poses as a threat to your life.

True love will not harm the one it claims to love.

Move Out

One of the important things you need to do if you want to get out of an abusive relationship is to move out if you are staying with your partner.

Find alternative accommodation; this may mean renting a place and getting used to an unfamiliar place, but remember why you needed to remove yourself from danger- your life is important.

Leave before it's too late

Don't try to convince yourself that your abuser will change; leave before more damage is done.

Maybe your abuser will change, but before you are certain of the change, don't stay in the relationship just hoping for it.

Leaving your abuser and allowing them to get help means you love yourself enough to stop the abuse and you care for them enough to show that true love doesn't harm the one it claims to love.

If you feel you want to give your relationship another chance at a later stage, wait for the change to occur, and only when you are sure that he has changed, can you then consider going back.

Don't blame yourself

Never blame yourself for being in love, even if you fell for the wrong person. And never blame yourself to justify the actions of your abuser.

Sometimes we cannot choose whom our hearts love, but we can control how we react to the decisions our hearts and our abuser takes.

Loving someone doesn't mean you should let that love destroy you.

PoliticsMost Dangerous Country For Journalists by dkingsman82(op): 6:56pm On Sep 19, 2014
The release of a video showing the apparent execution of U.S. journalist James Foley (pictured) in Syria by Islamic State militants underlines the present danger to reporters around the world.

According to data from the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ), at least 1,071 journalists have been killed since 1992, with 2009 and 2012 being the most deadly – 74 journalists were killed in both.

Journalists find themselves under the greatest threat of murder, which has accounted for 66 per cent of deaths, rather than conflict, which caused 20 per cent. Unfortunately, around 88 per cent of journalist killings go unpunished.

This level of threat varies from country to country. Based on CPJ data on deaths since 1992 with a confirmed motive, we count down the most dangerous countries for journalists.


Journalists killed (since 1992): 19

Journalists in Bosnia suffered heaviest during the Bosnian War from 1992 to 1995, which the CPJ attributes 100 per cent of the 19 journalist deaths to. No media professional has been killed since.


Journalists killed: 19

The majority of journalist deaths in Sri Lanka occurred between 2004 and 2009, and have been linked to the Sri Lankan Civil War, though so far noone has been prosecuted.

Journalists killed: 21

In 2013, Turkey accounted for the largest share of the world’s imprisoned journalists, incarcerating 40 of the 211 jailed around the world – five more than Iran. The 211 figure is the second highest total since the CPJ started recording in 2000. Of the 211 imprisoned, 124 journalists were prosecuted on anti-state charges, while 45 received no official charges.


Journalists killed: 26

More than 90 per cent of journalists’ deaths in Afghanistan since 1992 have occurred since the intervention in the country by allied forces began in 1991, with 88 per cent of victims covering war at the time of their death.

Journalists killed: 29
Fifty-nine per cent of journalists killed in Brazil have been covering corruption beats, such as award-winning reporter Tim Lopes, who was tortured and murdered while investigating drug traffickers in a Rio de Janeiro suburb.

Journalists killed: 30
Around 80 per cent of journalists slain in Mexico have been, at one time, crime reporters. Mexico also has the worst record for journalists confirmed missing, with 13 unaccounted for disappearances since 1982.

Journalists killed: 45
According to the CPJ, 23 of the 45 journalist victims in Colombia were reporting on corruption, while a further 19 were reporting on politics. All but four deaths have been recorded as murders.

Journalists killed: 53
Somalia has one of the highest rates of journalists forced into exile – 42 since 2009. The country with the most displaced journalists is Iran, with 76, while Syria is second with 44. According to the CPJ, the reasons behind journalists fleeing always include either the threat of imprisonment or the threat of violence, and just five per cent are able to return home.

Journalists killed: 60
Journalists in Algeria suffered particularly during the Civil War between 1991 and 2002, with a staggering 97 per cent murdered or assassinated by belligerents

Journalists killed: 66
The CPJ currently considers Syria, suffering from an ongoing civil war since 2011, as the most dangerous country for journalists today, with approximately 20 reporters currently missing and 66 killed by combat or crossfire.

Journalists killed: 76
The Maguidanao Massacre in the Philippines was the single deadliest event for journalists documented by the CPJ. At least 33 journalists were among the 58 killed in what seemed to be a politically motivated attack in November 2009.

Journalists killed: 165
Iraq remains the deadliest country for journalists by some distance, with all but one death occurring since the start of the Iraq War in 2003.

HealthHow Much Sex Should You Be Having? Every Night? Once A Month? SCIENCE VIEW by dkingsman82(op): 7:34pm On Sep 17, 2014
Some people are fine with the amount of sex they get and some think they should be getting a whole lot more. A few men even think their partners demand too much sex and secretly wish they'd take up knitting or something.

On the whole, most men probably think they could handle a bit more sex than they’re getting, though every man, and every relationship, is different.

But science has something to say about it too. According to the latest research, most of us are happy if we think we’re having more sex than the neighbours, however much we actually have.

Read on to discover more.

More than next door

According to the new study, having more sex than your neighbours can make you happy. Professor Tim Wadsworth, an associate professor of sociology at the University of Colorado, analysed data from over 15,000 people and found that respondents who had sex at least two to three times a month were 33 percent more likely to report a higher level of happiness than those who'd had no sex during the previous 12 months.

Other findings were similarly obvious. Professor Wadsworth found that the more sex people had, the happier they tended to be, even when factors like income, marital status, health and age had been taken into account.

But the more surprising finding was this. Even people who had reasonable amounts of sex reported lower levels of happiness if they thought they were having less sex than their peers.

Conversely, people who thought they were having more sex than their peers reported higher levels of happiness, even if - in the great scheme of things - they weren’t having that much sex.

“There's an overall increase in the sense of wellbeing that comes with having sex more frequently, but there's also this relative aspect to it,” said Professor Wadsworth. “Having more sex makes us happy, but thinking that we are having more sex than other people makes us even happier.”
Once a week

But how do you find out how much sex other people are having? Through social networks, says Professor Wadsworth, both on- and off-line. Then there are frequent media polls and even the gossip down the pub. Through these means we build up an idea of how much sex someone in our situation might be expected to have. If we beat the average, we’re happy.

But for the good of your own relationship, how much sex should men be having (assuming your personal answer is not just “more than them next door”)? Experts put the usual proviso on this information: every relationship is different, they say, and the amount of sex you need is the amount that makes both partners happy.

But one or two have put their heads above the parapet and tried to quantify just how much sex most of us should expect, if we’re in a sexual relationship.

Sex and relationship expert Dr Gail Saltz, for instance, has said this about sexual frequency: “If your sex drives are out of balance, your aim is to meet in the middle, having sex a bit more than one partner likes but probably a bit less than the other likes.”

In other words, both partners should compromise to get to a level of sexual frequency that suits their relationship.

Sex councillor Ian Kerner is even more specific: “While there may be no one right answer to the question of how often couples should have sex, lately I’ve been less equivocal and (started) advising couples to try to do it at least once a week. That’s because I believe that sex ruts are becoming epidemic.”

Pencilling in sex at least once a week means sex becomes a habit, something you fit in however busy or stressed you are. Once a week means you’ll get all the health and wellbeing benefits, too. But remember, Kerner says “at least” once a week. So the more you have the better.
How much sex do people have?

Most experts agree that the amount of sex you have will depend on you and your relationship, and that the ideal frequency is tricky to pin down.

But they do know how much sex most of us are having, on average.

Research suggests that for married couples under 30 years of age the frequency (on average) is about twice a week. For married couples between the ages of 50 and 59, the frequency is about once a week. In the intervening years the frequency is somewhere between the two.

Those figures don’t tell us if everybody is happy with that amount of sex, and of course it only covers married couples. People also tend to have more sex in the early stages of a relationship and less later on.

But the average does suggest that a natural sexual frequency is something like once or twice a week in a committed, long term relationship.

Many couples will be happy with less, and others will be at it every night, but if you’re up with the average at least you can say this: your neighbours are unlikely to be having much more sex than you, and may be having less. So you can stop stressing about what’s happening next door and start enjoying what’s happening in your own bedroom.

Politics[UPDATE] 15 Dead, 34 Injured In Kano Bomb Attack by dkingsman82(op): 6:58pm On Sep 17, 2014
Update:

The Police in Kano on Wednesday confirmed the death of 15 persons, including two suicide bombers, at the Federal College of Education, Kano.

The Commissioner of Police in the state, Mr. Aderinle Shinaba, disclosed this shortly after visiting the scene of the incident.

Shinaba said 34 others, mostly students and lecturers, sustained various degrees of injury during the attack.

He said the suicide bombers had before their arrival to the institution, exchanged gunfire with some security operatives along Kafar Famfo-BUK road.

“After the exchange of gunfire, they emerged at the college lecture theatre and detonated two explosives.

“There was another insurgent, who was carrying AK 47 rifle and explosives.”

He said that one of security operatives was able to shoot him and the explosive went off and killed him.

“We have been able to recover some of the AK47 rifles and magazines used by the insurgents.

“So far, 15 people were confirmed dead, while 34 others that sustained injuries are currently receiving medical attention in the hospital,” the commissioner said.

He said security had been beefed up in the area, adding that “we are going to keep our men on ground to enhance security in the school.”

————————————————————————————————–

The violent Islamic sect, Boko Haram, has attacked the Federal College of Education in Kano.

The attackers hit the school with explosives and followed this up with gun attacks on Wednesday afternoon as the students fled in different directions to escape from the explosions.

It could not be ascertained how many had been killed in the school, which is not far away from Bayero University in the same city.

Early report from Kano says the insurgents attacked the college of education around 3.20pm.

JTF Spokesman Ikechukwu Eze confirms that there was a bomb explosion and sporadic shooting at Federal College, Kano.

months after the union had suspended its
previous strike, nothing had been done by
the government to address the union’s
demands.
NAN also recalled that the decision to
embark on this indefinite strike on October
4 was reached at the 75th National
Executive Council (NEC) meeting of the
union in Bida, Niger State on September
28th 2013.
We also did recalled that ASUP embarked on
a nationwide indefinite strike on April 29
over the Federal Government’s failure to
address its grievances.
The strike was later suspended on July 17th
pending that their needs will be met by the
federal government.
The suspension was as a result of the
intervention of the Joint Committees on
Education of the Senate and the House of
Representatives.
Mr. Chibuzor Asomugha also told the News
agency that it was over two months that
the union suspended its strike, but the
Federal Government had not fulfilled its
pledge to address the issues.
“Nothing has been done since we
suspended our strike in July,” he said.
Mr. Chibuzor Asomugha also pointed out
that the union gave the Federal Government
up till September 16, — a two-month grace
period — within which to negotiate and
settle the issues, but noted that nothing had
been done so far by the federal
government.
The president also said that the Federal
Government had not fulfilled its bargain in
the 2009 agreement with the union.
The union had, earlier in a statement on
Monday, notified the Federal Government of
its decision to go on strike if the
government did not honour the agreements
reached, but according to our informant,
the federal government did almost nothing
about the strike.
NAN also reported that the union’s demands
include the possibility of lower cadres rising
to CONTISS 15, and the release of a white
paper on the visitation panel to the federal
polytechnics.
