<div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawbyline'>By Hasting Wannamaker</div><br /><br />  <div class='uawarticle'>Having a healthy spirit will help to keep you looking younger. The effects of how people live their lives become apparent in how they are aging.  There are several factors that affect aging, including genes and environmental factors, and as time goes by, these have a significant affect. Reversing the aging process involves the combination of good genes, healthy diet, regular exercise and low stress, helping you live longer and better and allowing the body to repair naturally. Relaxation is key, because stress causes significant health problems. General positivity and simple laughter go a long way when it comes to long-lasting life.<br />  <br />  Being as happy as possible will extend your life expectancy by as much as ten years, some studies have shown. To help slow down and reverse the aging process and increase longevity, be sure to get sufficient sleep to help your body relax, combine exercise with a lively lifestyle and monitor your weight. Avoid saturated fats because they can lead to obesity, which results in the body working extra hard.<br />  <br />  ANTI-AGING SUPPLEMENTS FOR INCREASED LONGEVITY<br />  <br />  In order to carry out the body's daily necessary functions, vitamins and minerals are utilized to convert food into energy, and to replenish and move oxygen into the blood stream. In today's fast-paced society, it's very difficult to ingest the required daily vitamins, nutrients, and minerals that the body needs to function optimally. Quality of life is affected as people age, and this is heightened when the proper nutrition is not being consumed. While anti-aging supplements cannot stop the aging process, they can slow it down and keep you healthy and younger-looking. You should consult with your doctor before taking any anti-aging vitamins and supplements.<br />  <br />  Healthy aging supplements that minimize the negative effects of aging include:<br />  <br />  Antioxidant rich Vitamin A helps prevent age related disease and deterioration by neutralizing oxidation's harmful effects.<br />  <br />  B3 is a powerful vitamin, which lowers fats in the blood, helps to increase good cholesterol, and makes skin look more healthy overall.<br />  <br />  Another great antioxidant is Vitamin C which has cancer preventive qualities, helps reduce the risk for developing cardiovascular disease, and increases the firmness of skin, making it look younger.<br />  <br />  Vitamin E helps in several ways, including reducing the risk of heart attack and strokes, and it can help to jumpstart the immune system.<br />  <br />  Vitamin K helps to break up blood clots that form dark circles around the eyes.<br />  <br />  THE AGING PROCESS IS SLOWED WITH PROPER DIET<br />  <br />  When a person switches to a healthy diet plan, they typically begin feeling happier and more full of energy, and the resulting comfort will improve their longevity as a result. Eating foods such as vegetables, fruits, nuts, fish and whole grains protects against many chronic conditions, which can shorten your life.<br />  <br />  A good healthy diet will limit the total amount of fat that you eat in both meat and dairy products in order to avoid clogging arteries. Blood pressure can be inflated from too much sodium in the diet, so keep an eye on salt intake, and of course sugar must be carefully limited for the obvious health implications. Some people use exercise, a diet that is rich in nutrients, and anti -aging supplements and vitamins, but there are more options to appear more youthful such as Botox treatments for wrinkles, or possibly a face lift procedure.<br />  <br />  </div><br />  <div class='uawresource'><br />  	<div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br />  		About the Author:<br />  	</div><br />  	<div class='uawlinks'>Start saving a lot here: visit <a href="http://cwcmedspa.com/botox-detroit/">this link</a> and <a href="http://cwcmedspa.com/hcg-diet-michigan/">continue reading</a>.</div><br />  </div><br />

<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><p>Return of Von Miller helping Denver, but KC's D could vex Peyton Manning</p><br /><p><cite>By Dean Oliver | ESPN Stats & Info</cite> </p><br /><img src="http://a.espncdn.com/photo/2013/1021/nfl_hali_b1_576x324.jpg" width="600"/><br /><p><cite>John Rieger/USA TODAY Sports</cite> Tamba Hali and the Chiefs' pass rushers will be on Peyton Manning in a hurry.</p><br /><p>Peyton Manning gets so much credit for the success of the Broncos' offense. What about receivers? And what about his blockers? Those guys protect him from harm like almost no quarterback in the NFL ... uh, except when they push a defender into his legs, as happened last week, right after we put out an article ranking the line as fifth best in the NFL.</p><br /><p>This week, with the Chiefs' potent defense poised to take on that strong Broncos front, is about breaking pass protection in other words, it's about the pass rush, the guys who aim to put the hurt on the likes of Manning. The Chiefs come into this week's highlight matchup against the Broncos with the most sacks in the NFL. But are they the best pass rush in the NFL? Or is their secondary also helping them? That is what our new pass rush metric is supposed to help determine by factoring in how long a quarterback holds the ball and how long the secondary keeps guys from getting open.</p><br /><p>On the other side of the ball, the Broncos have had Von Miller back from suspension for three weeks. How has his return impacted their ability to pressure quarterbacks?</p><br /><p>And which NFL team holds the league's best pass rush unit? We now have the answer all those questions.</p><br /><p><img src="http://a.espncdn.com/i/insider/preview/scoreboard_arrow.gif" width="600"/> To see why the Broncos are improving but Peyton Manning may struggle Sunday, you must be an ESPN Insider.</p><br /></div>

"I’d seen him in this [the RSC] company playing both Touchstone in As You Like It and Romeo, and I thought if you can play Touchstone and get the laughs and play Romeo you’ve got a Hamlet in there somewhere. But partly…it’s impossible for David to be anything other than contemporary, and yet he has astonishing facility with the language. He can breathe it as if it’s not 400 years old, and I think he makes the plays shiver into life. He has great versatility. What I loved about his Hamlet was in a way the key line was for us when Hamlet says, “I have of late, and yet I know not why, lost all my mirth,” which must mean that at one point Hamlet had a sense of humour and wasn’t always congenitally the gloomy Dane. That’s a great skill to be able to find the variety within the line.”</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Greg also confirms that the recorded version of the play will be released on DVD.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Listen to the full recording of the talk here:</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><iframe frameborder="no" height="166" scrolling="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/120127003" width="100%"></iframe></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">David Tennant stars in the title role in the production finished its run last night at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre.

The air left inside keeps them from deteriorating right away as other organs do.</p>  <p>An innovative experiment now aims to use that hour or more window of time to boost lung transplants by allowing donations from people who suddenly collapse and die at home instead of in a hospital.</p>  <p>“There aren’t enough lungs. We’re burying them,” said Dr. Thomas Egan of the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, who is leading the project. “It turns out your lungs don’t die when you do.”</p>  <p>This is a new frontier for transplants.</p>  <p>Today, registered organ donors don’t get to fulfill that last wish if they die outside of a hospital. The U.S. doesn’t have a system to recover their organs quickly enough. It can be an added shock to grieving families, and a waste of potentially good organs that might ease transplant shortages.</p>  <p>“The general public does not understand how hard it is to become an organ donor. They assume if they sign their card, when they die, then it will happen,” said bioethicist Arthur Caplan of New York University’s Langone Medical Center. “Only 2 to 3 percent of people die in circumstances that let them be organ donors.”</p>  <div class="body-related">  <div class="img-wrap">  <div class="cta-overlay">  <span class="cta-text xsmall">View gallery</span><span class="icon-slideshow icon-white-slideshow-xsmall">.”</span>  </div>  <p><img alt="In this recent photo, research associate Lolita Forrest …" class="body-related-thumb lzbg" height="225px" src="http://l.yimg.com/os/mit/media/m/base/images/transparent-1093278.png" style="" title="" width="300px"></p>  </div>  <div class="body-related-title photo-caption" style="width: 300px;">In this recent photo, research associate Lolita Forrest assists Dr. Thomas Egan in testing a set of  …</div>  </div>  <p>The new study in the Research Triangle area of North Carolina is trying to change that, focusing on lungs because Egan’s research suggests they last the longest.</p>  <p>Here’s how it works.</p>  <p>Someone collapses with cardiac arrest. Emergency workers exhaust attempts at CPR. If the driver’s license lists the person as a registered donor, the local organ recovery agency tracks down next-of-kin for permission to participate in the research.</p>  <p>If that happens within about an hour of death, then workers pump a little air into the lungs to preserve them while the body is transported to an operating room for organ recovery.</p>  <p>Workers wheeled a cooler bearing the first set of lungs donated in the experiment into Egan’s lab for the next crucial step — determining if they’re really healthy.</p>  <p>Inside the science fiction-looking domed machine, a ventilator slowly filled the lungs. They resembled a turkey awaiting roasting. Some black speckles on the outside didn’t worry Egan. They’re a sign of city living, or maybe earlier smoking. It’s deeper inside that counts.</p>  <div class="body-related">  <div class="img-wrap">  <div class="cta-overlay">  <span class="cta-text xsmall">View gallery</span><span class="icon-slideshow icon-white-slideshow-xsmall">.”</span>  </div>  <p><img alt="In this Oct. 25, 2013 photo, Dr. Thomas Egan talks …" class="body-related-thumb lzbg" height="200px" src="http://l.yimg.com/os/mit/media/m/base/images/transparent-1093278.png" style="" title="" width="300px"></p>  </div>  <div class="body-related-title photo-caption" style="width: 300px;">In this Oct. 25, 2013 photo, Dr. Thomas Egan talks about his lung transplant research in his lab at  …</div>  </div>  <p>Egan infused them with a special fluid that flows like blood normally would. This so-called ex vivo lung perfusion preserves the lungs even longer. It can tell if they transfer oxygen properly or help spot signs of disease. Egan also peeked inside with a bronchoscope, looking for abnormalities.</p>  <p>These lungs didn’t pass the test because Egan found some early disease. But they did show it was possible to get a donation in time to try.</p>  <p>Lungs that do pass will be transplanted into patients willing to take a chance on these nontraditional organs, as part of the study funded by the National Institutes of Health.</p>  <p>“That would be the greatest thing, to be able to breathe normal,” said Lisa Bowman, 51, of Union Grove, N.C.</p>  <p>Bowman has been on the waiting list for new lungs for two years after a rare genetic disease gradually damaged her own until, she says, it became like “breathing through a pinhole.” She hopes Egan’s research will help her find a match more quickly.</p>  <p>Some previous U.S. attempts at out-of-hospital donation of another organ, kidneys, didn’t pan out because of logistical hurdles. But transplant specialists are watching this newest experiment closely, saying that if it works, it eventually could open the way to many more donations — not just lungs but maybe other organs, too.</p>  <div class="body-related">  <div class="img-wrap">  <div class="cta-overlay">  <span class="cta-text xsmall">View gallery</span><span class="icon-slideshow icon-white-slideshow-xsmall">.”</span>  </div>  <p><img alt="In this Oct. 25, 2013 photo, an oxygen line leads to …" class="body-related-thumb lzbg" height="228px" src="http://l.yimg.com/os/mit/media/m/base/images/transparent-1093278.png" style="" title="" width="300px"></p>  </div>  <div class="body-related-title photo-caption" style="width: 300px;">In this Oct. 25, 2013 photo, an oxygen line leads to Lisa Bowman as she sits on a sofa at her home i …</div>  </div>  <p>“We’ve had a number of very disgruntled family members that wanted to donate (a loved one’s organs) and weren’t able to,” said Dr. Jeffrey Punch, transplant surgery chief at the University of Michigan. Spurred by that family reaction, in a few months, his team plans to try recovering kidneys from cardiac arrest victims who are rushed to the emergency room but can’t be saved and turn out to be registered donors.</p>  <p>In North Carolina, Egan’s study likewise will try to recover lungs from people who die in the ER as well as in the community.</p>  <p>Today, the vast majority of donated organs come from people who suffer a severe injury and are hooked to a ventilator for days, even weeks, until doctors determine they are brain-dead. Machinery keeps blood and oxygen flowing until surgeons can collect organs deemed healthy enough.</p>  <p>What about registered donors who collapse with cardiac arrest at home, the office or the gym — and efforts at CPR fail? Experience overseas shows it’s possible to take quick steps to preserve and recover their organs. Doctors in Spain have transplanted kidneys, livers and lungs from these unconventional donors. France has reported some success with kidneys.</p>  <p>In the United States, more than 6,000 people died last year while awaiting one of those organs.</p>  <p>Lungs are in particularly short supply. Only 15 percent to 20 percent of donated lungs are usable, often because complications during the donor’s hospitalization damaged them. Just 1,700 lungs transplants are performed each year, compared with nearly 11,000 kidney transplants from deceased donors.</p>  <div class="body-related">  <div class="img-wrap">  <div class="cta-overlay">  <span class="cta-text xsmall">View gallery</span><span class="icon-slideshow icon-white-slideshow-xsmall">.”</span>  </div>  <p><img alt="In this recent photo, lungs donated as part of research …" class="body-related-thumb lzbg" height="225px" src="http://l.yimg.com/os/mit/media/m/base/images/transparent-1093278.png" style="" title="" width="300px"></p>  </div>  <div class="body-related-title photo-caption" style="width: 300px;">In this recent photo, lungs donated as part of research at the University of North Carolina, Chapel  …</div>  </div>  <p>Egan, a cardiothoracic surgeon, said doctors don’t even suggest the possibility of a lung transplant to thousands who might benefit because there aren’t enough donors.</p>  <p>Yet the Institute of Medicine has estimated that as many as 22,000 people a year who die outside of hospitals could be potential organ donors if scientists settle some ethical and practical questions.</p>  <p>Buying time to recover those organs means doing some things not normally done to dead bodies, noted bioethicist Caplan, and that can mean ventilating lungs or filtering blood to the kidneys.</p>  <p>How will grieving families react? Is it possible to tell who’s a registered donor, and find next-of-kin, in time to try?</p>  <p>New York City studied kidney donations after at-home deaths in 2011.</p>  <p>Dr. Stephen Wall of Bellevue Hospital Center said community and religious groups met with researchers and were interested. But study rules restricted which deaths were eligible, and researchers had just 20 minutes to get initial family permission. In six months, nine deaths were considered but didn’t qualify, often because the deceased hadn’t previously registered as an organ donor, Wall said. New York is among states with low donor registration rates.</p>  <div class="body-related">  <div class="img-wrap">  <div class="cta-overlay">  <span class="cta-text xsmall">View gallery</span><span class="icon-slideshow icon-white-slideshow-xsmall">.”</span>  </div>  <p><img alt="In this recent photo, Dr. Thomas Egan uses a bronchoscope …" class="body-related-thumb lzbg" height="225px" src="http://l.yimg.com/os/mit/media/m/base/images/transparent-1093278.png" style="" title="" width="300px"></p>  </div>  <div class="body-related-title photo-caption" style="width: 300px;">In this recent photo, Dr. Thomas Egan uses a bronchoscope to examine donated lungs in his lab at the …</div>  </div>  <p>Wall’s team is considering trying again with lungs, because of the longer time window.</p>  <p>Lung cells don’t depend on blood flow for oxygen, Egan explained. When the heart stops beating, they use what oxygen is left in the air sacs and airways.</p>  <p>For how long? In a series of experiments with animals, Egan showed lungs stay viable for an hour, or four hours if they are ventilated, before they’re cooled to await transplant.</p>  <p>That ventilation is one key to the $ 4 million, three-year study, because when emergency workers exhaust attempts at CPR and declare someone dead, they typically leave behind the breathing tube inserted in the person’s throat. That makes it simple to restart ventilation to preserve the lungs, Egan said.</p>  <p>“If we can get the lungs ventilated within an hour, and then removed within an hour or two and cooled, we think they’ll work just fine,” he said.</p>  <p>Kidneys don’t have as long a survival window. But in Michigan, Punch has a similar preservation plan: Insert a few tubes near the kidneys to filter blood to them until they’re recovered.</p>  <p>Fast retrieval isn’t the only issue. Surgeons don’t know if nontraditional organs work as well, cautioned Dr. Bryan Meyers of Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis.</p>  <p>Chest X-rays and other in-hospital donor testing determine the quality of today’s traditionally donated lungs.</p>  <p>“This trial is very timely and very pertinent,” Meyers said, to see if testing in that domed machine could substitute for that hospital track record.</p>  <p>Egan notes that lung disease is the nation’s third-leading killer. He says the untapped pool of potential donors who die outside of the hospital could expand transplants significantly.</p>  <p>“There are huge logistical hurdles,” he said. “But if we’re right, this would have a profound impact on the number of lungs that are available for transplant.”</p>  <p>__</p>  <p>AP National Writer Allen G.
