"In the past when we had all of the 'superstars' here, we had non-stop yellows. When all of the star drivers were here, everybody was crashing into each other. I remember, you know, in 2001 and 2002, I mean, there was probably ten yellows in the race. So you could never even get into a rhythm. The group of drivers we have, they are doing a great job. We have a lot of drivers now that have come from Formula 1 experience and Formula 3000 experience. Their name is maybe not so recognizable as of yet in America, but, you know, when Montoya came here and Gil de Ferran and Zanardi, nobody knew who they were." -- Paul Tracy - SOURCE: April 18th, 2004 press conference.

Hidden Beach Records Releases Crates: Remix Fundamentals ...

First of Three Crate Remix Series Featuring The Music Industry?s Hottest DJ?s.

Los Angeles, CA, June 07, 2012 ? Hidden Beach Recordings is proud to announce the release of the 3 volume Series CRATES: REMIX FUNDAMENTALS featuring the remixed versions of Jill Scott?s greatest tracks. CRATES: REMIX FUNDAMENTALS VOL.1 is the first of three remix volumes on deck from Jill Scott this summer. The 3 part release is set to capture the spirit of summer, with upbeat tempos and catchy dance beats that create that perfect ?Summer Feeling?, available June 26th.

Hidden Beach Records has paired the hits of Jill Scott with some of music?s biggest DJs including Ron Trent, Ca$e Boogie and Mr. Mig. Jill Scott is one of the most remixed artists in recent history, and Hidden Beach is taking her soulful vocals to new level to be enjoyed by new audiences worldwide. CRATES: REMIX FUNDAMENTALS VOLUME 1 brings some of the hottest remixes together in one place for that perfect Spring Summer Feeling.

The centerpiece of CRATES: VOLUME 1 is ?Spring Summer Feeling ? The Ron Trent Mix? a ten minute house music workout that will transport audiences poolside in Miami.?An inspired album sequence, CRATES rockets off with the pulsating synth driven mix of??Can?t Explain? by Ca$e Boogie?who brings forth his hit making sensibilities, from prior work with Jamie Foxx and Young Money. The party continues with the aggressively retooled ?Bedda At Home,? by newcomer Stephen Rivera, replete with swooping and stuttering vocals and rock guitar to boot. While ?Talk to Me ? The 314 Mix? positively percolates as Jaymes ?Th3ree Fourteen? Ball, who has worked with Maybach Music and Miami?s Trick Daddy, makes dance floor magic. Mr. Mig?s Circuit-ready audio signature, evident in mixes for Beyonc? and Kristine W., is present here transforming the plaintive ?Whatever? into the ??Powerful Love Mix,? leading directly to the aforementioned ?Spring Summer Feeling? remixed by Chicago House music master Ron Trent. After all of that energy, Jacques Richmond and Bruce Walker begin to slow the tempo with?remix of ?Come See Me? and ?followed by Kell?s urban shuffler ?Slowly, Surely ? The Teddy Vee Mix.?

Taking us back to the start of Jill Scott?s career is the DJ Jazzy Jeff Redux of ?A Long Walk,? from her breakthrough record from the fall of 2000. Jazzy Jeff, the architect of Jill Scott?s breakthrough masterpiece ?Who Is Jill Scott?? was the only producer in a position to have vocals re-sung, making this is the first time this mix has been made available on CD. Closing out this collection is Kyle West?s dreamy vision of the poetic ?Love Rain? reminding us all of the lyrical and musical treasures to be found when digging in the CRATES.

Financial Worries Add to Cancer Patients' Burden

WEDNESDAY, June 6 (HealthDay News) -- A small study gives a snapshot into the financial anxieties that plague many patients with advanced cancer and their spouses, even as they struggle against the disease itself.

Four of every five such American patients and their spouses-caregivers in the study said they had concerns about meeting medical costs and suffered "financial stress." Worries about paying medical costs also were tied to lower mental and physical health, the study found.

"Across the board, the longer they were in treatment or reaching the end of life, there were [financial] concerns. There were concerns whether it came to their own well-being or their families' well-being," said study lead author Fay Hlubocky, a clinical psychologist and ethicist at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine.

She reported the findings this week at the annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), in Chicago.

The study involved 52 patients with advanced cancers, all of whom were enrolled in clinical trials, and their spouses. While patients in clinical trials are a slightly different group than that seen in the general population (because some expenses of treatment may be paid for), Hlubocky said the numbers from her study "are borne out in the literature generally" for patients battling cancer outside of such trials.

Patients ranged in age from 28 to 78, with a median age of 61. All were married, two-thirds had more than a high school education, and just over half made less than $65,000 a year. Forty-five percent of the patients were employed, as were two-thirds of spouses-caregivers. Each patient and their spouse were asked about a wide range of financial concerns, and they also took part in standard tests assessing depression, anxiety, quality of life and mental/physical health.

The researchers found that at the beginning of the study, 82 percent of the patients and 69 percent of the spouses reported "medical cost concerns," while 79 percent of the patients and 81 percent of spouses said they had "financial stress." Queried a month later, the level of "medical cost concerns" had risen -- 85 percent of patients and 72 percent of spouses now cited such worries.

People who encountered "unexpected" costs related to care had higher anxiety and depression scores than those who did not, the study found. Quality-of-life scores were lower for patients who had financial worries, and the physical and mental health of the spouses-caregivers seemed to decline as medical care cost worries persisted, the study found.

What were patients and their spouses worried about? According to Hlubocky, it ranged from the "little things" -- parking and hotel accommodations, gas and mileage getting to and from doctors' appointments -- to much larger concerns, including insurance coverage (or lack thereof), how to provide for loved ones after death, and even bankruptcy.

Some participants expressed real anxiety in meeting their financial obligations. "We had to pay for an additional hospitalization for a small-bowel obstruction, and insurance would not cover it," one patient told the researchers. "If we had to sell our house to pay, we'd do it."

Other patients felt their illness threatened their livelihood. "My employer has an attendance policy that if violated too many times will result in termination," the patient said. "My appointments have to be midday usually." The patient considered going on disability, "but that would not pay for my insurance."

One expert said these types of fears are all too common for people coping with cancer.

"It is certainly true that the impacts beyond diagnosis and treatment are tremendous for cancer patients," said Dr. Sylvia Adams, ASCO spokeswoman and assistant professor in the department of medicine at NYU Langone Medical Center, in New York City. "They do face several challenges. And as this article shows, there is a substantial number of patients who feel that there is anxiety and depression and lower quality of life associated with worries about financial stability."

Adams said that, even for people with insurance, costs can quickly escalate. These include medication co-pays, transportation costs, time missed from work, child-care issues and the cost of in-home medical devices.

However, both Hlubocky and Adams stressed that, as challenging as things can be for cancer patents, help and resources are out there. First and foremost, they said, is to make sure you have a social worker on your cancer-care team who can point you in the right direction for help.

"There's lots of different foundations and coalitions out there that are willing to help," Hlubocky said. "Certain hospitals, you can just go and talk to the social worker and try and find out what's the best way to help cover some of the financial problems. Many patients don't know. A social worker is an absolutely wonderful person to have on your team."

Adams agreed. "It is very important that the treating team has a multidisciplinary aspect, and that it involves psychological support as well," she said, since the stress of dealing with cancer and its treatment can be overwhelming.

Findings presented at medical meetings are typically considered preliminary until published in a peer-reviewed journal.

Why antipsychotics need time to kick in

Insight into how drugs work may explain the delayed action of medications for schizophrenia

Web edition : Wednesday, June 6th, 2012

New details about how some drugs for schizophrenia accumulate in the brain may help explain why patients often must wait for weeks for the medications to work.

Because many commonly used antipsychotics such as haloperidol and clozapine quickly latch onto their targets, it would seem that the drugs should bring fast relief.

?But there?s always a side story,? says neuroscientist Michael Cousin of the University of Edinburgh in Scotland. ?There?s another layer of complexity.?

Researchers led by Teja Groemer of Friedrich-Alexander University of Erlangen-N?rnberg in Germany illuminate this process in the June 7 Neuron by describing how the buildup of certain drugs in the brain may have underappreciated consequences for their effectiveness.

The idea that drugs accumulate in the brain isn?t totally new; other scientists have suggested that antipsychotic drugs can pile up in certain places, Groemer says. But most people have assumed such accumulation is inconsequential.

Not so, Groemer and his team found. Stockpiled drugs may actually squelch nerve cells? behavior in a highly selective way by being released only when needed most.

Using a proxy compound that could be seen with a microscope (because making the drugs themselves visible would have changed their behavior), the researchers watched the chemical build up in small pockets, called synaptic vesicles, inside nerve cells that were growing in a dish. Normally, these vesicles? cargo is cell-manufactured molecular messages. In an excited nerve cell, vesicles rise to the surface, glob on to the cell?s outer membrane and float their messages out and away.

Vesicles chock full of unnatural cargo ? haloperidol, chlorpromazine, clozapine and risperidone ? also dump their contents into the space between nerve cells when a cell is excited, the team found. This evacuation sends a ?calm down? signal back to the cell that releases the drug. In this way, the activity of a nerve cell dictates the drugs? effects. The more active a cell, the more antipsychotic drug it gets. ?The brain doses itself,? Groemer says.

This accumulation process might help explain why people typically have to take such drugs for several weeks before noticeably improving: The drugs need time to accumulate in the vesicles before exerting their calming effect. Other drugs with similar chemical makeups, including some antidepressants, may behave similarly.

The experiments were conducted with cells in dishes and with rodents; it?s not clear whether the same thing happens in people. If so, the results could have important implications for doctors, Groemer says. ?One really needs to wait for a drug to accumulate before deciding whether the drug is effective or not.?

Home Improvements That Sell Homes AtHomeSense.com

If you?re thinking about selling your home, naturally you want to get the most for your money out of the deal. With that in mind, remodeling or making other improvements to your home has the potential to bring a great return on your investment. However, any major home improvement project has its potential downsides in terms of how it could affect your resale value, making it particularly important that you do not jump into anything.

First and foremost: Is your home truly in good shape? If the roof leaks, the foundation is cracked or you have any other issues that could lead to bigger problems, invest your time in making sure that your home is up to snuff structurally. Cosmetic improvements will only divert time and resources away from fixing the real issues your home has that can and will affect a sale.

If your home?s in good shape, taking some time to plan your improvements ahead of time will save you a lot of headaches, cost overruns and other problems down the road. If you?re planning on a significant modification to your home such as a room addition ? contact your local government to make sure that your proposed modification is permitted and will meet code. An unexpected code issue cropping up down the road could easily cost you a significant amount of money to correct it or might even result in you having to tear out your modification altogether.

Also equally important yet gets overlooked all too often: Get a solid budget in place, and make sure that you have enough room in your budget to allow for anything unexpected that may come up. If you?re about to undertake a major remodeling project for instance, you could easily find yourself dipping into your pockets to cover additional wiring or plumbing, for instance. The general rule of thumb is at least 20% of your estimated budget should be available to cover any cost overruns.

It?s a tried-and-true expression: Bathrooms and kitchens sell houses. A remodeled kitchen and/or bathroom can often return a good portion of your investment when you sell your house. However, don?t make the mistake of focusing all your efforts on one or two rooms while leaving the rest of your home untouched.

Stay conservative with any improvements. While that new swimming pool might sound tempting to you, it?s not likely to be a big selling point. Ideally, any changes you make to your home should be things that can be changed relatively easily such as new paint. Your goal should be not to make so many improvements to your home that you literally price it out of the neighborhood.

While it?s not an expense you should undertake lightly, a room addition can be another excellent way to raise the value of your home. An extra bedroom in particular is a great selling point for many homebuyers. Having your home inspected by an appraiser or real estate agent prior to constructing an addition can give you a reasonably good idea of how it?s likely to affect the value of your home.

Justin Krutz writes about home improvement and assorted related topics for Palatin Remodeling, Inc., a company specializing in Los Angeles bathroom remodeling and kitchen remodeling services.

The Perfect Storage Solution for Homes and Offices: Racks

The racks offer easy shelving ideas that make the most of the available space and yet are much more feasible and durable than other furniture. They are cost efficient, versatile and can be tailor made to suit the requirements of the area.

Difference between Shelves and FastRak Racks

The main difference lies in their over all appearance. While the shelves come in varied colors, materials, shapes and sizes, the racks are purely functional in nature. They are the ideal storage solutions intended to hold the stored objects. The shelves are considered as a piece of furniture that has a clean and furbished facade.

The value of the rack is not undermined with its lack of adaptability. They offer flexibility that most shelves cannot.

FastRak Racks for Home and the Office

The racks are often associated with the closet and the multiple shelves in it are immaculate in storing clothes, shoes etc.

The perfect areas of setting these racks up are the pantry, the laundry room, workshops, shed or the garages. It can be placed in the utility areas, like the kitchen or the library or the bathroom. Since they are now available in painted metal and wrought iron, they formulate organization of the place.

Racks in the office are used for the storage of data and other objects. They are usually customized with wider shelf heights. Developed with a much more durable material, these racks are suitable even in climate-uncontrolled areas.

How to Choose the Correct FastRak Racks?

The racks like the FastRak are designed in variety of shapes and sizes. Choosing the correct design may seem to be a daunting task, but considering the enunciated features would provide you with the best of the storage solutions.

• Usability: Functionality should take precedence over choice. The racks should be providing uniform area for storage and meet the requirements.
• The material by which it is constructed: Depending on its usage, the racks like the FastRak should be durable and be resistant to other damages due to chemicals or grease.
• Size: Racks can be adjusted for warehouse storage and customized with corrugated decks to increase the stability of the device.

The racks are much more practical, affordable and are perfect to address all your storing needs.

Under the 8M Women-Owned Small Business Federal Contract Program, contracting officers are permitted to set aside specific federal contracts for both WOSB- and EDWOSB-certified organizations, to ensure they receive equal access to these federal contracting opportunities. In order to qualify for the 8M WOSB certification, one or more women must own and control at least 51% of the business, and must hold the highest officer position in the company.

DRM, Inc. has also received certifications from the Women Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC), a third- party certifier of businesses owned, controlled and operated by women, as well as the California Unified Certification Programs (CUCP) Disadvantaged Business Enterprise & Women Business Enterprise certifications.

FHA Refinancing - Ames Real Estate

June 5, 2012

Many home owners with an FHA loan have not benefitted from a refinance because of mortgage insurance guidelines. Even with the interest rates being a whole percentage or more below what their current rate is, the higher mortgage insurance guidelines take away the benefit of the refinance.

If you or someone you know has an FHA loan but has not refinanced and taken advantage of the low rates it may soon be worth the effort!

According to FHA News Editor, thousands of FHA borrowers will be able to save money through the FHA?s Streamline Refinance Program. Additionally, the Federal Housing Administration will lower its Upfront Mortgage Insurance Premium (UFMIP) to .01 percent, potentially saving borrowers thousands of dollars.

If you want to learn more or want to know if you qualify, contact Lisa Severseike. She'll be happy to go over the process with you and answer any questions you may have:

Children And Teens Are Increasingly Becoming Obese ? Uefa ...

Not all that long ago that obesity with all of the complications were the domain of grown-ups. Over the last few decades things in the US have definitely deteriorated. In addition to more adults being overweight, children and teenagers are developing this condition at ever younger years. For children, the obvious and most influential people will be the parents, and education as well as awareness are critical. The parents, though, are the ones who are responsible for offering the most guidance and being the most positive role models properly. Obese kids are staring down the barrel of a plethora of physical and behavioral health problems. Beyond that, there are a lot of dangerous risks that will have both the means and the opportunity to develop into real problems later on in life. So for kids it is a terrible one-two punch that is nearly impossible to beat and overcome.

The particular medical conditions that any young person, child or teen who is obese will experience can be highly variable. Plenty of things influence these kids, like genetics. Kids and teens who suffer from severe obesity are more likely to develop a variety of conditions that cause problems for joints and bones. Load bearing joints, in particular, are more likely to develop issues. The feet and knees as well as the ankles and hips in particular are subject to stress on the skeleton. Kids are going to have to deal with joint pain, typically in their backs as well as constant low swelling around their joints. Arthritis in these children and teens is commonly diagnosed, as well.

Perhaps one of the oldest expressions out there is that kids are cruel. Most of us have experienced this in some form when we were kids. Kids who are obese are typically targets of intense bullying and extraordinary levels of verbal humiliation. It is any wonder how these children can get through all those years of school with their sanity intact. We all understand that that kind of long lasting abuse can have severe consequences later on. The constant verbal assaults will have a tremendous impact in areas such as self esteem, confidence and the list goes on.

The prospects for an obese child do not appear to be very promising for many reasons. When an obese child becomes an adult there is a long list of health problems and diseases that are at risk of. Is there a possibility to reverse the obese condition?

We know that obese teens are more likely to become very obese adults by 16 times more than a normal teen. This is very clearly not boding well for those teens. Because the risk factors are developed at an early age, they are likely to have a very poor quality of life as an adult.

If you are a child or young adult, it is incredibly important that you find a competent and qualified adult to talk to about your condition. It is important to be well informed as to the causes of this condition. Alternatively, something can be done about it, and it is never too late to begin the long journey back to good health.

Online Franchise For Sexual Disorders | Aide cr?ation entreprise ...

With the busy lifestyle that everybody leads nowadays , performing in bed has become a giant issue. Most guys, across the world are reporting issues like erectile dysfunction and sexual impotency. But there are remedies prescribed for the numerous sexual issues surfacing nowadays.

The common drugs used to treat these illnesses are Tadalafil, Sildenafil, Vardenafil and Dapoxetine. Sildenafil Citrate was employed to develop a drug, generally known as viagra today. It was developed by the medication giant Pfizer. It augments the smooth muscle?s relaxation by employing nitric oxide. Nitric oxide is in general released on sexual stimulation. The relaxation of the smooth muscles allows blood to flow in to certain areas of the penis, thus leading to an erection.

It helps one to boost their performance and re-ignite the romance in one?s life.The pamphlets also include facts that it's used to treat high blood pressure of the pulmonary artery and also erection problems, in lay man?s terms, impotence, in men. Viagra is available too for girls in the name Lovegra. It is supposed to increase sexual pleasure in a woman by inflating the flow of blood in genital areas.

Now, one can buy viagra in Australia via on the internet. There are plenty of web sites that sell Viagra in packets of 12 100 mg pills that come for AUD 92.26. So , each tablet is approximately for AUD 7.69. One gets free airmail shipping on a purchase of 36 100mg tablets, which cost around AUD 245.07, which makes each tablet roughly cost AUD 6.80.

Selling Viagra has gotten so profitable that trusty drugstore chains have started their own franchise. These franchisees operate as stand-alone stores or tie up with a local pharmacy to supply the drugs. Apart from viagra, the franchisees offer other drugs for treatment of life-style illnesses. It is wonderfully easy for one to obtain the license for such a franchise. One just wants to contact the business head and then start supplying the drugs.

It's a business that may be operated from home. Lots of people have made piles of dollars by obtaining for a franchise of these drugs, as the incidence of these diseases is high nowadays. Most franchisees offer home delivery and discounts on bulk order and free airmail and courier services to supply the drugs. One could be a retailer or a stockist or wholesaler, dependent on the money one is happy to invest. The franchise of these drugs can be gotten in both the east coast and west coast, with prime focus on metropolis like Canberra, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth etc. As the incidence of the illness is mostly in the urbanized areas. It's a trouble-free job, with good remunerations!

This essay has been authored by John Matthews, about viagra online, Australia and viagra Information. He's experienced in business franchising and has created a plentyful on such worthwhile franchises.

The Case for "Relationship Agreements" - DivineCaroline

Relationship experts tell us that the most important thing about a relationship is communication?each partner being clear and honest about their needs and expectations. If we do that, say the experts, we drastically reduce the amount of hurt, misunderstanding, disappointment, and failure. This is the conventional wisdom.
?
So why is it such a big deal if it?s written out on paper? ?????
?
Judging from the media?s reaction to the news that Mark Zuckerberg and his now-wife Priscilla forged a written ?relationship contract? in which they each spelled out what they wanted and were prepared to give, you?d think it was the worst thing to hit relationships since Facebook itself. Says Jen Doll at the Atlantic Wire: ?If the thought of someone putting your required fish-feeding schedule in writing and asking you to sign it makes you want to remain safely single and free from such harrowing enterprises forever, you would not be alone.? According to Doll, putting such needs and wants onto paper turns a relationship into something ?nerdtastic and not particularly romantic,? as if the only things that people ever fight over are inconsequential issues like chores and takeout preferences. ?
?
In a perfect world, of course each and every couple would truthfully lay their neuroses and peccadilloes on the line from the beginning in a tough but enlightening conversation, and the partners would choose carefully whether they wanted to proceed. That?s in the perfect world; maybe Jen Doll lives there. In the real world, however, that?s not exactly how it goes. People make short-term compromises, long-term patterns get forged, resentments build, and eventually the couple is in a(nother) knock-down-drag-out fight, with one person yelling You?re such a workaholic! And the other yelling, You knew that before you married me!
?
Take it from a married person?this sort of thing is exactly what those open and honest discussions are supposed to prevent, and too many couples never have them. If making a makeshift ?contract? or ?agreement,? as silly or nerdtastic as it may feel, helps prevent those arguments, then believe me, it?s worth it. Because it?s a lot easier to hash these things out at the beginning, when the parties are only minimally invested, than it is to reconcile them once there?s been a marriage, a child, a home purchase, or a dog.
?
My parents tell a great story about their own courtship: Before they married, my father said to my mother, ?I play golf every single weekend. I always have, and I always will. You can either accept that and not complain, or you can learn to play and come along. Just don?t say I didn?t warn you.?
?
In their case, my mom learned the game, and now they play together every weekend and are quite happy. But what if they had never had that conversation? Maybe he would have tried to cut back on the golf, spending his Saturdays mowing the lawn and quietly resenting his wife. Maybe she would have assumed that he?d eventually cut back, and then been hurt when he didn?t. They might have ended up divorced in five years, after one too many arguments where one person shouts, I thought this would change once we got married! By putting his expectations on the line, my father enabled my mother to make the best, most informed decision.
?
When you think back to failed relationships from the past, how often do you think, I wish I?d gotten out sooner? Do you acknowledge that there were red flags from the start?conflicts of values or priorities that could never, ever be satisfactorily resolved?and that you should not have invested so much time? What if, instead of spending five years in a relationship that ultimately failed, you had sat down and written out your must-haves with your partner, discovered that you were fundamentally incompatible, and sadly gone your separate ways? Which outcome is preferable?
?
That?s what these relationship agreements are all about. Of course, relationships are built on compromise and discussion and flexibility. And of course, people change, along with their priorities and needs.? But when it comes to closely held values that won?t change, whether it?s a need for five hours of alone time per week or a staunch refusal to take ski vacations?it?s only fair to lay them on the table. Reportedly, when Priscilla Chan was contemplating moving to Palo Alto to be near Mr. Zuckerberg, she demanded one date night and 100 hours of time together away from their apartment and his office every week. Standing up for what she expected from him doesn?t make her nerdy or unromantic?it makes her smart, realistic, and put her on equal footing in her relationship.
?
Sure, a mention on The Big Bang Theory and in a New York Times trend piece don?t always equal a full-blown cultural phenomenon, but written ?relationship contracts? are far from the romance-destroying, spontaneity-crushing internet scourges that they?re made out to be. They help people develop relationships on their own terms; ones they can live with. ?They give couples a framework in which to have those difficult discussions. They set a benchmark for both partners to aspire to. And they?re an insurance policy, for those fights that invariably end in an exasperated, You knew what you were getting into with me. Because when there?s been a relationship contract, the answer is always, Yeah, you?re right. I did.

Muncie Approves Public Financing for Spartech Packing Expansion

From the Muncie Star-Press: The city-county plan commission gave its approval to $2.6 million in public financing on Thursday to help finance a $19.2 million expansion at Spartech Packaging Technologies on the south side. The 60,000-square-foot expansion at the Spartech food packaging manufacturing facility bordered by Memorial Drive, Macedonia Avenue, 18th Street and Penn Street, will add 32 jobs. Current employment is 114 and the current space is 167,000 square feet. "This company is making a long-term investment in Muncie and Delaware County," said Terry Murphy, vice president at the Muncie-Delaware County Economic Development Alliance. The construction cost is estimated at $3.9 million. New machinery, equipment and special tooling and re-tooling are projected to cost another $15.3 million.
? During a special meeting, the plan commission voted 6-1 to create a tax increment financing (TIF) district at Spartech's 16.5-acre site. The city of Muncie will issue up to $2.6 million in bonds to help finance the expansion. The bonds will be repaid by the added property tax revenues generated by the expansion. ?

Yolo Health ? 5 Artificial Sweeteners Which Are Safe

The age old debate about whether or not to use artificial sweeteners is alive and well. Find out what this article has to say about them. The best part, they explain exactly which brands are which type of sweetener!

Healthline.com suggests?

The Basics

Artificial sweeteners can curb cravings. Low-calorie sweeteners, aka sugar substitutes, are used to sweeten foods and drinks and at the same time reduce calories. Artificial sweeteners do not contain carbohydrates so they do not raise blood sugar. That said, many foods and beverages that are sweetened artificially still contain calories from carbohydrates, which also causes blood glucose to rise. Be sure to read labels carefully so you can keep a close eye on overall carb intake.

Which Artificial Sweetener is the Healthiest

There are five artificial sweeteners with U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval. They are found in foods and beverages, and also sold packaged to use in cooking and baking. The five artificial sweeteners available today are:

• acesulfame potassium (Sunett, Sweet One)
• aspartame (Nutrasweet, Equal)
• saccharin (Sweet N Low, Sweet Twin, Sugar Twin)
• sucralose (Splenda)
• neotame

Is Stevia An Artificial Sweetener?

And there?s a sixth: rebaudioside, aka Stevia. But because Stevia comes from a plant, it is not technically an artificial sweetener. You will find Stevia sold as A Sweet Leaf, Sun Crystals, Steviva, Truvia and PureVia.

How Artificial Sweeteners Can Help

Small changes can make a big difference. Swapping artificially sweetened beverages for sugar-sweetened ones can save you dozens of grams of carbohydrates and hundreds of calories, every day. For example, if you drink two 12-ounce sodas daily, you?re consuming 80 grams of carbohydrates and 300 calories. If you choose diet soda, or zero-calorie sweetened soda water, you?re saving a ton of calories. If you swap 2 teaspoons of sugar in your morning coffee for one packet of artificial sweetener, you save 32 calories and 10 grams of carbohydrates.

Artificial Sweetener Side Effects

Although artificial sweeteners have been under the microscope of the public eye for decades, there is no clear evidence that artificial sweeteners cause any side effects. Studies in the early 1970s linked saccharin to increased rates of bladder cancer in laboratory rats, but subsequent studies proved conclusively that these results applied only to rats, and not to humans.

There was a scare in the mid-1990s when a report was released suggesting that aspartame might have led to an increase in the number of people with brain tumors between 1975 and 1992. However, a closer look at the data shows no proof whatsoever to these claims.

Numerous studies in the past few decades have confirmed that artificial sweeteners are safe in reasonable quantities, even for pregnant women.

6 Tips That Can Help Affair-Proof Your Relationships

The term cheating is one that elicits cringes of fear, gasps of horror.

What comes to mind when you hear it?

Most likely you imagine that a partner in a committed relationship had sexual intercourse with someone outside of their relationship.? But cheating can look like many things to many people.

To some it may indeed refer to sexual intercourse only.? To others it could be anything from an emotional attachment to another, fantasies of other partners, a kiss.

Rather than use the term cheating here, something that makes me think more of copying someone else?s answers on a test and less about who you share your body or heart with and when, I am going to use the term infidelity.

I define infidelity as any action that violates an implicit or explicit agreement between two people, thereby undermining the relationship.? The action may be physical or emotional in nature.? Dishonesty is often but certainly not always part of an infidelity.

As a relationship and sex therapist, infidelity is not a new or foreign topic to me.? It is in fact, one of the most common causes of couples seeking counseling.

Infidelity, whether considered, presumed, or committed.? To most couples, infidelity signifies a crisis.

Some can repair the damage done, turn an infidelity into an opportunity for growth and reconnection.? And some can?t, the loss of trust being irreparable for one, the continued anger and blame intolerable for the other.

I tend to be pretty proactive and pre-emptive in my work so my focus here is to talk about what I believe leads to infidelity and what I think you can do about it.

But first, a disclaimer. I am an LPC (licensed counselor) with a private practice in Portland, OR.? Portland is a very sex positive city with a visible and strong female presence.

The majority of my clients are ages 20-40 and most of them, particularly the women, I have noticed, have done a lot of thinking and talking about their sexuality before coming to see me.

What that means is that I am working with a pretty savvy group of folks here and they have a good grasp on what they want out of their sex lives.

Among this group of men and women, there is a fairly equal mix of those for whom a committed and monogamous long-term relationship is a goal and those for whom it is not.

More and more individuals and couples I work with are trying out open relationships because the concept of sexual exclusivity doesn?t jive with their worldview.

Some of the couples I work with who sought counseling due to an infidelity did so because they were trying to maintain a monogamous relationship based on their partners needs (or ultimatums) but couldn?t.

Certainly though, it is just as common for monogamy to have been a clearly stated (and not only assumed) mutually agreed upon desire and choice.

But the risk in monogamous relationships is that sex can start to feel lacking or uninteresting over time.? Some describe feeling like they or their partners feel like sex is more of a chore then an enjoyable way to get or give pleasure or connect.

I have many times heard it stated in session that they aren?t ready to give up and resign themselves to a sexless life and that if their partner can?t meet their needs, they will get them met elsewhere.

So what leads to affairs??

Here is what I see.? Reasons that are either 1. Emotional 2. Physical or 3. Practical

1. Emotional ????

Probably the most commonly cited cause of infidelity is a sense of emotional disconnection from a partner.? The person engaging in the infidelity will often describe having felt unappreciated, lonely, and sad.? They might fear abandonment or rejection.

These emotions can often lead to feelings of anger and resentment.? Emotional dissatisfaction can lead to affairs both emotional and physical in nature.

People may seek out others for emotional support and validation.? Or sex may be withheld from a partner because of anger.

2. Physical ????

In some cases a partner who has engaged in an infidelity will cite sexual dissatisfaction as being the reason they strayed.

In these cases sex may be not as often as they would like or as fulfilling as they would like; either because they are not receiving pleasure or reaching climax or because it lacks a certain chemistry or passion.

While for some, physical relationships can only feel enjoyable or safe when there is trust and intimacy, for others those same factors can make sex feel strange or awkward.

Some pairings are also just not as sexually compatible as others.? What turns one person on might make another deeply uncomfortable.

3. Practical ????

One thing I have observed in my practice is that there has been a shift in thinking, especially in younger generations, about the practicality and benefits of monogamy.

More and more people are choosing lifestyles and relationships that are non-monogamous.? But there is not yet a road map for how to have successful open relationships so people are crossing boundaries without a clear plan, honest communication, and clear expectations.

For instance, the primary factors that delineate an open relationship from an infidelity are mutual agreement and honesty.?

Here are the 6 things I believe everyone can do in order to minimize the risk of infidelity.?

1. Do the work it takes to get to know yourself as a sexual person.

Read books, take a workshop, talk to a counselor, journal.? Study your sexuality as you would any other subject you were trying to master.

Increase your own awareness about what you like and don?t like, what you fantasize about, how you like to be touched and where, what you would like to try.

2. Communicate who you are sexually to your partner

Don?t assume that they know!? Have an honest conversation at a time when you both feel relaxed.? This conversation doesn?t have to be about your particular sexual relationship with your partner, though that can be part of it.

It?s really about you.? Share as much as you filling willing to about what you learned from your work mentioned above.

3.? Ask questions and listen to who they are as a sexual person.

Learning about your partner?s desires and fantasies can both increase intimacy and be terribly fun!? You might think you know what your partner likes but chances are, unless you have asked them, you don?t know all of it.

One of the best things that can come from open dialog about sexuality is that it reminds partners of their own autonomy.? In order to desire someone else, they simply must be acknowledged as being a separate individual than you!

Knowing that you are curious about them as a sexually autonomous individual interested in exploring with them and can also help reduce risk that your partner will stray.

4.? Keep an open mind and heart and be willing to try new things together.

Try not to judge. In the realm of sexuality, almost anything goes (I say almost because the one caveat is that if another person is involved, it must be consensual).

People?s sexual desires and expressions are hugely varied and you should avoid making assumptions about what they mean as it is unique to each individual.

A general rule of thumb is to try anything once.? Getting outside of your comfort zone sexually can be an amazing growth experience and you may find that you are deeply attracted to things you had not before considered.

5. Affairs are distractions and people distract themselves when they are bored or unhappy.? An affair is a ?quick fix? with the long-term consequence, even if not discovered.

If you are bored or unhappy in your relationship, it?s easy to be more ?open? to others.? Something that may start as a lighthearted flirtation or pleasant conversation can quickly deepen and become a consuming distraction.

This is a slippery slope and can ultimately undermine any hopes of improving things with your partner.? Instead of distracting yourself and avoiding the problem, try to remain present and engaged with your partner.

Check yourself to see if you are doing something that you are not telling your partner about and ask yourself if it would make them uncomfortable if they did.? You and your partner share mutual responsibility for your relationship.

6.? Be honest.? Honest with yourself and honest with your partner.

Too many couples avoid the topic of sex, especially when it has been a long period of time since partners have had sex, because the subject feels too tense and overwhelming.

Continued avoidance makes it harder and harder to bridge the gap.? Honesty early on (before an affair) about your concerns can create an opening for a new level of intimacy.

Honesty after an affair will demonstrate accountability and remorse.? Many partners who ?discover? an affair say that the discovery and the deception were the worst part.

I strongly believe that any couple can improve their sex life at any time.? The biggest hurdle is starting to talk about a problem that has been ignored, like an elephant in the room.

Because of this, I highly recommend that couples call out the issue quickly and with respect and compassion.? Seeking the help of a counselor can facilitate this process and help break down any tension that might be building, providing a safe space in which to talk about it.

Couples can also read books or watch movies together (yes, this can include pornography) in order to open up a conversation about sexual experiences that you or your partner might be interested in having.? It is much easier to prevent an affair from happening then to repair the effects of having one.

Yes, your sexual needs are important.? If, after following the steps above, you find that you and your partner are still not able to enjoy sex together or remain committed to an agreement of monogamy, then the relationship might not be right for you.

If that is the case, discuss it with your partner and see if you want to work together to create a new plan or can agree to part ways with understanding and kindness.
