LegalView Re-Launches Mesothelioma

Sun, 28 Oct 2007 07:35:27 GMT

Denver CO (PRWEB) September 18, 2007 -- LegalView.com, your complete online resource for everything legal, would like to inform readers that they can now find even more complete, accurate information on the deadly cancer mesothelioma at mesothelioma.legalview.com. Mesothelioma is a type of lung cancer that is almost always caused by preventable occupational exposure to asbestos, a building material that was extremely common in shipyards, construction and other heavy industry in the decades following World War II. Hundreds of thousands of American workers and service members were exposed to the carcinogen. Because mesothelioma symptoms can remain dormant until decades after exposure, mesothelioma continues to appear in retired workers even today. As a service to victims of mesothelioma, LegalView.com is proud to announce the launch of much larger and more extensive collection of information and resources at the newly reformatted mesothelioma.legalview.com

Since the early 20th century it has been commonly known among the scientific and medical communities that asbestos causes mesothelioma and other serious health problems. According to several U.S. government reports, documents exposed in the 1970s illustrated that the asbestos industry and the federal government knew for decades that asbestos was dangerous, but covered it up, fearing a legal backlash As a result, workers in industries that used asbestos heavily continued to be exposed, in some cases as late as 1990, with some workers still possibly being exposed today. Decades later, these workers are at a drastically increased risk of being diagnosed with mesothelioma. And unfortunately, mesothelioma is almost always deadly; victims have a median survival rate of six months to a year after diagnosis.

Visitors who would like to learn more about mesothelioma, asbestos exposure and related health concerns are invited to visit LegalView.com's new mesothelioma information portal at mesothelioma.legalview.com. Recognizing that mesothelioma will be a public health problem for decades, LegalView has established a collection of original articles on the disease; a glossary of terms; up-to-date news articles; FDA alerts; and jury verdicts and settlements. In addition to new features, such as detailed information about mesothelioma symptoms, causes, companies that used asbestos, as well as treatment resources. Also, visitors to the mesothelioma portal can utilize the free mesothelioma lawyer referral service to find a mesothelioma attorney in their state.

The mesothelioma portal is just part of LegalView's collection of free, comprehensive information on the legal issues important to Americans. Visitors with broader legal concerns can use LegalView.com's many information portals to help them find a brain injury lawyer, a construction accident attorney, or a birth injury law firm. Along with the attorney referral services for these different issues, readers can find original, factual and clearly written information; the latest news and research, including blogs dedicated to a specific legal issue; government information and releases; and guides to relevant legal and medical terms.

LegalView.com is a free service to the public, brought to you by Legal WebTV Network, LLC, a Limited Liability Corporation created by a group of highly respected national law firms: Anapol Schwartz; Brent Coon and Associates; Burg Simpson; Cohen, Placitella and Roth; James F. Humphreys and Associates; Lopez McHugh; and Thornton and Naumes.

Good Eating Habits and Health

Good Eating Habits and Health

In current society, people have known the importance of keeping healthy and good life habit. In the past, people ate three meals at home, and they ate more vegetables and less meat and fish. They were very strong and seldom went to see doctors. Now life is better, people eat more meat, fish, eggs and other food with more fat. They often go out for good meals with their families and friends. But they get easy to be ill, Why? I think more meat and fish, less exercise are bad for health. Good rest, less meat and fish, more vegetables and enough exercise are good for health. So I exercise every day. My eating habits are pretty good. I eat a lot of vegetables. I eat fruit and drink milk every day. I drink a cup of water 15 minutes before each meal and eat much vegetables and fruit. Of course, I love junk food, too, and I eat it once a week. And I sleep nine hours every day. The better we get into good eating habits, the happier our life becomes.

Luxury at Lakme, Mumbais Fashion Fest

Sun, 28 Oct 2007 07:34:28 GMT

Mumbai - Now here's a sight you'd be hard-pressed see at a fashion show in Europe or New York: A parade of seventy-plus chiseled male models looking like warrior princes en route to a royal battle. Not only did the "boys," as they're called in Mumbai," display an air of confidence and swagger rare on Western runways, where sullen faces and pin-thin bodies are the aesthetic of choice for male models, but the sheer size of the group - most shows feature 25-30 separate models at most - was staggering, with just about every Indian supermodel on the bill.

ADVERTISEMENT

"I'll take one of everything," joked one international journalist as she left the venue, "and the clothes were nice, too!"

In Mumbai, however, this was pretty much the signal that Lakme Fashion Week had officially begun, with this fashion equivalent of a Bollywood musical, when Indian designer Arjun Khanna's show featured such a spectacle as part of his Spring/Summer '08 presentation Saturday evening, October 13.

Evoking the dress of the Yao people, who live in an area in southeast Asia known as the "Golden Triangle," where heavy herioin trafficking exists side by side with subsistence farmers and fisherman. Rich indigo cloth made into quilted jackets with embellished Nehru collars and sleeves and silk cord toggle closures, and simple wide leg trousers formed the basis of Khanna's collection. Despite its humble point of reference, Khanna's theatrical sensibility - he also sent out about 20 or so young boys onto the runway to feign eating bowls of rice, as well as a clown-like paparazzo who pretended to photograph models as they were sent down the runway - gave the show a regal stamp of distinction.

Yesterday marked the start of five days of fashion shows in Mumbai for Lakme Fashion Week, with a variety of designers whose collections provided a good overview of the general scope of the ready-to-wear industry in India with its overall East-meets-West sensibility. Designers like Nikasha Tawadey and Vikram Phadnis, two particular standouts from the first day, we could easily see selling in shops in New York, London or Paris. They mixed-and-matched traditional textiles, prints, embellishments and traditional Indian silhouettes - full skirts and trapeze tops from Rajasthan in Vikram Phadnis' case and billowy "Dongri" pants (think soft billowy folds that taper at the ankle) in Nikasha's collection - with a Western sensibility for a look that was fresh, modern and characteristically Indian but just as appealing to fashionistas elsewhere.

Established in 2001, Lakme Fashion Week (named for the Indian cosmetics brand, which is one of the sponsors), is the most high-profile of India's fashion weeks. (Another, India Fashion Week, is held in New Delhi and organized by the Fashion Design Council of India, a national organization whose mission is to support the expansion of the Indian ready-to-wear business).

Luxury fashion is a booming industry in India, and none more so than in Mumbai - or Bombay as many still call it - also the center of India's film industry, Bollywood, and at heart of the surge in the urge to spend on both local and international designer labels.

Recognizing that the numbers of people with disposable income to spend is on the rise in India, last month Conde Nast launched Vogue India, its Patrick Demarchelier-shot cover featuring Australian supermodel Gemma Ward and Bollywood actresses Bipasha Basu Priyanka Chopra and Preity Zinta and local supermodels MoniKangana Dutta and Laxmi Menon.

And as Lakme Fashion Week kicked off, Gucci - one Vogue India's major advertisers whose logo is certainly among the most familiar of the international designer brands that are in India - officially celebrated the opening of its latest boutique in Mumbai's Hilton Towers, sparing no expense on an exclusive party for the city's wealthiest and most plugged-in residents, who sipped champagne while nibbling on caviar and an Italian feast of caprese, prosciutto-wrapped figs, parmesan and penne, while deejays flown in just for the party from London pumped the crowd with underground dance tracks fit for a fashionable crowd in any corner of the globe. Was this Milan or Mumbai? In the land of luxury goods like Gucci, there appears to be no difference.

LA Fashion Week Spring 2008

Sun, 28 Oct 2007 07:34:03 GMT

Culver City - If every Los Angeles fashion designer had the eye for beauty and the talent for creating perfectly tailored pieces that Kevan Hall has, this town would be the Paris of America. Sadly, that is not the case; but happily, Hall proved once again that he is the master on Monday afternoon at his runway show during the Spring 2008 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week extravaganza going on at Smashbox Studios in Culver City.

ADVERTISEMENT

The theme was "Africa: A Safari," as Hall (who is an African-American originally from Detroit) looks "to my personal roots" and takes inspiration from "Dinka, Maasai, and Zulu tribes to the antelopes and zebras" that roam that vast continent. Hall even went so far as to use fabrics, beading, and jewelry designed and created by artisans in Africa, including mud cloth and painted twill. From the first look, a "Nomadic fitted sheath" in tones of brown, white, and tan to the last, a white strapless wedding dress adorned with a colorful ceremonial Maasai wedding neckpiece, the designer successfully evoked the feel of Africa while staying as sophisticated as he has always been.

Gasps of wonder and applause met many of his dresses as the models emerged onto the runway of the packed Main Tent. Some, like the elegant Serengeti silk printed bustier gown and the shorter sheath in the same pattern, evoked the sun rising over the desert in shimmering shades of cream, brown, and rust, while others, like the multi-colored tribal embroidered dress, gave off an easy, more casual yet chic vibe. Other daywear looks featured a strikingly bold black-and-white zebra print on a "dashiki" (long tunic), studded with glittery crystals and worn over slim white silk pants; and a slightly deconstructed tan raw silk jacket worn over matching walking shorts and oversize hat.

But Hall's trademark is eveningwear, and his Spring 2008 collection of gowns did not disappoint, as he continued to mine his extremely flattering silhouettes – think bustier, halter, or crisscross straps up top, snug waists, and long, flowing bottoms – changed up with a touch of Africa. One stunner was the Nebele painted bustier gown, a fabric created by artist Sharon Fauvel, gorgeous blocks of yellow, green, blue, and red worn with a stack of brightly-patterned tribal bracelets. Another great look: Hall's leopard-patterned silk gown with a plunging neckline, adorned with an elaborately beaded waist.

For the less adventurous of his fans, Hall made sure to present some more sedate looks, including a black silk chiffon gown with sheer bell sleeves, a knee-length white cocktail dress with high neck and silver grommets at neck and hem; and a golden silk/cotton gown with a long train.

It's no wonder that Kevan Hall's show drew more famous faces than any other so far at L. A. Fashion Week; people like Shari Belafonte, Jennifer Beals, Eric La Salle, Nia Long, LeVar Burton, James Pickens, Jr., Cuttino Mobley, and Rebecca De Mornay all know that he's the Angeleno designer who knows just how to make women look amazing.

"I thought his show was unbelievably beautiful," De Mornay commented as the show closed to a standing ovation. "He did a wonderful job of combining the African motifs with extremely elegant designs. I've been impressed with Kevan's clothes in the past, and now even more so."

Death risks high after weight loss surgery: study

Sun, 28 Oct 2007 07:32:06 GMT

CHICAGO (Reuters) - Patients who undergo weight-loss stomach surgery have a higher death rate than is true for the general population, including more suicides, perhaps linked to depression, researchers said on Monday.

ADVERTISEMENT

The higher risk of death generally is due not to the surgery itself but to the health problems that accompany obesity, and the damage that the condition does to the body before and after surgery, the researchers said.

Dr. Bennet Omalu and colleagues at the University of Pittsburgh said a review of more than 16,000 bariatric operations done in Pennsylvania over a nine-year period found a "substantial excess of deaths owing to suicide and coronary artery disease" compared to normal death rates found in the population at large.

"It is very likely that the suicide deaths were ... underestimated because some of the deaths were listed as drug overdoses rather than suicide on the death certificate," Omalu's team wrote in their report, published in the Archives of Surgery.

"The large number of deaths due to suicide and drug overdose, in excess of what we expected, is also a cause for concern. Most of them occurred at least one year after surgery, suggesting that careful follow-up, especially the need to recognize and treat depression, should be provided," they added.

There were 440 deaths among the patients, who had an average age of 48 when the operations were performed. About 1 percent of the patients in the study died within a year of the procedures and 6 percent died within five years.

Heart disease was listed as the cause of death in 76 patients -- about 20 percent of the group -- a rate higher than would be common in the general population, the researchers found.

There were 14 suicides, compared to two that would be likely to occur in the population at large in a group of people that size, said the study

Omalu's team said surgery is an effective treatment for severe obesity, with heavily overweight patients often losing 80 percent of their excess body weight within one or two years.

The higher death rates found in the study were likely due to complications caused by obesity itself, from both before and after the surgery, they said.

In a second study, Dr. Christopher Still and colleagues at the Geisinger Health System in Danville, Pennsylvania, found that bariatric surgery patients who lost some weight beforehand get out of the hospital quicker.

The study of more than 800 patients who underwent open or laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery between 2002 and 2006 found that those who lost more than 5 percent of their excess body weight before the operation were less likely to stay in the hospital longer than four days compared to those who did not lose weight beforehand.

It also found that those who shed 10 percent of the excess weight ahead of time were more than twice as likely to have lost 70 percent of their excess weight a year later, compared to those who lost none at all.

The researchers said the effect has to do with the beneficial effects of weight loss on high blood pressure, diabetes and other problems.

Panel: Kids shouldnt use cold medicines

Sun, 28 Oct 2007 07:31:49 GMT

WASHINGTON - The medicines long used by parents to treat their children's coughs and colds don't work and shouldn't be used in those younger than 6, federal health advisers recommended Friday.

ADVERTISEMENT

The over-the-counter medicines should be studied further, even after decades in which children have received billions of doses a year, the outside experts told the Food and Drug Administration. The FDA isn't required to follow the advice of its panels of outside experts but does so most of the time.

"The data that we have now is they don't seem to work," said Sean Hennessy, a University of Pennsylvania epidemiologist, one of the FDA experts gathered to examine the medicines sold to treat common cold symptoms. The recommendation applies to medicines containing one or more of the following ingredients: decongestants, antihistamines and antitussives. It doesn't apply to expectorants, though many of the medicines also contain that ingredient.

The nonbinding recommendation is likely to lead to a shake up in how the medicines �� which have long escaped much scrutiny �� are labeled, marketed and used. Just how and how quickly wasn't immediately clear.

"If the agency chose to restrict use in children 6 and under, that won't necessarily lead to a ban on the products. It might lead to labeling that says 'do not use,'" said Dr. John Jenkins, director of the FDA's office of new drugs.

Such labeling changes could take years to put in place, since the FDA would have to undertake a lengthy rule-making process. Jenkins suggested if the drug industry took it upon itself to make such changes, the FDA could use its enforcement discretion to allow it to do so more quickly than would be done otherwise.

In fact, the Thursday-Friday meeting came just a week after the industry pre-emptively moved to eliminate sales of the nonprescription drugs targeted at children under 2.

So what are parents to do if they chose to use the medicines, pending further action? Jenkins recommended they follow the directions when giving the medicines to their children, and use them only as directed. He also counseled they pay close attention to what ingredients the medicines contain and to ask a doctor if they have any questions.

In two separate votes Friday, the panelists said the medicines shouldn't be used in children younger than 2 or in those younger than 6. A third vote, to recommend against use in children 6 to 11, failed.

Earlier, the panelists voted unanimously to recommend the medicines be studied in children to determine whether they work. That recommendation also would require the FDA to undertake a rule-making process to reclassify the medicines, since the ingredients they include are now generally recognized as safe and effective, which doesn't require testing. Again, that process could take years, even before any studies themselves get under way.

The panel's advice dovetails with a petition filed by pediatricians that argued the over-the-counter medicines shouldn't be given to children younger than 6, an age group they called the most vulnerable to potential ill effects. The American Academy of Pediatrics and other groups back the petition.

But FDA officials and panelists agreed there's no evidence they work in older children, either. Still, panelists held off from recommending against use in those 6 and older. And some said they feared such a prohibition wouldn't eliminate use of the medicines by parents.

"They will administer adult products to their children because they work for them or feel they work for them," said the panel's patient and family representative, Amy Celento of Nutley, N.J.

The drug industry says the medicines, used 3.8 billion times a year in treating cold and cough symptoms in children, do work and are safe.

"We worked very hard to present data to the panel and in some cases I felt as though they didn't listen and when you are in that position, it's tough," Linda Suydam, president of the Consumer Healthcare Products Association, the trade group that represents over-the-counter medicines, told reporters. Suydam pledged the industry would study the medicines as recommended and try harder to educate parents to avoid overdoses that in rare cases have been fatal.

Some of the drugs �� which include Wyeth's Dimetapp and Robitussin, Johnson & Johnson's Pediacare and Novartis AG's Triaminic products �� have never been tested in children, something flagged as long ago as 1972 by a previous FDA panel.

An FDA review found just 11 studies of children published over the last half-century. Those studies did not establish that the medicines worked in those cases, according to the agency.

For the most part, the results from tests in adults have been extrapolated to determine whether the medicines work in children. But even that evidence is "modest at best," said panel chairwoman Dr. Mary Tinetti of Yale University School of Medicine. Indeed, all but one of the 22 panelists then voted to say that extrapolation is unacceptable.

The panel also recommended drug makers provide standardized droppers with their liquid cough and cold medicines. Experts had told the panel the sometimes hard-to-use dosing devices contribute to parents unwittingly overdosing their children.

Later Friday, the panel recommended the dizzying array of medicines that combine multiple ingredients remain on the market �� but only pending the results of future studies to determine whether they work.

The panel also said cold and cough medicines should not be allowed to bear "doctor-recommended" and similar statements. It wasn't immediately clear if such a prohibition would be constitutional.

One health expert told the panel that children catch five to eight colds each year. Those colds don't necessarily require treatment beyond comfort measures that don't involve drugs, said Patricia Jackson Allen, of the National Association of Pediatric Nurse Practitioners.

Trump Disses Jolies Beauty, Clooneys Size

Sun, 28 Oct 2007 07:31:26 GMT

If, as Keats said, beauty is truth and truth beauty, is Donald Trump a big fat liar? Could be, based on the newest object of his ire, the empirically attractive Angelina Jolie.

"Angelina Jolie is sort of amazing because everyone thinks she's like this great beauty," the self-promotion-addicted tycoon told Larry King earlier this week while shilling his new book, which shall remain nameless so as not to help the boorish. "And I'm not saying she's an unattractive woman, but she's not [a] beauty, by any stretch of the imagination."

And just in case you're wondering how the Donald, a man who wears a bedraggled muskrat on his head and calls it a comb-over, is able to judge someone else's comeliness, just let him explain.

Sure, some might take issue with Trump comparing the sash-wearing, swimsuit-competing contestants in his cheese-tastic pageants to Brad Pitt's more glamorous half, but perhaps if he repeats himself enough, it'll start to sound true.

The Duke Returns: LA Fashion Week Spring 2008

Sun, 28 Oct 2007 07:30:59 GMT

Culver City, CA - For celeb favorite and HSN fashion maestro Randolph Duke, Sunday night at the Mercedes-Benz Los Angeles Fashion Week marked a return to the runway after a seven-year absence. But while Duke may not have been showing in Los Angeles, he's still been doing some high-profile dressing, from the copper gown worn by Hilary Swank when she took home Oscar gold to Marcia Gay Harden's red number when she did the same.

ADVERTISEMENT

Duke's return coincided with the Mercedes-Benz push to make the weeklong event more green, a fact he revealed by saying, "with a heightened consciousness of going green, my inspiration [for the Spring 2008 collection] revealed itself through the natural beauty of California."

To that end, he began his 73-look "The Living Earth" show on the Main Stage at Smashbox Studios with an ivory silk cargo jacket paired with a gold micro mini, made in the shapes of a palm frond. Motifs of ferns, palmettos, cacti, and lotus blossoms were sprinkled throughout the designs, which ranged from daywear pieces ranging from micro shorts and tiny minis to the sleek suits that helped make Duke a couture star and straight on to a flurry of elaborate gowns obviously designed for red-carpet moments.

Silhouettes ranged from skintight and shimmery (a beaded ivory silk chiffon gown, in a tone called "sunlight") to severe and straight (a midnight blue leather dress with an obi sash) to flowy and feminine. Those were the most obviously wearable of the group, highlighted by a granite-toned dress overlaid with black tulle, in a look Duke described as a "monolith," created to evoke rock formations.

Completely sheer tops on an assortment of gowns left absolutely nothing to the imagination; the model's breasts were completely exposed for perusal by the packed audience that included Smashbox founder Davis Factor, "Dirty Sexy Money" star Natalie Zea, and "Nip/Tuck" beauty Kelly Carlson. There was a bit of bondage in the show as well, with embossed leather bras tied up around the body and paired with cargo capris.

Overall, the Randolph Duke collection had a feeling of glitter, shimmer, and texture, mostly in easily flowing and very wearable looks that evoked the earth's bounty but did not have an ounce of a hippie/granola vibe. Now that's a green message that every Angeleno fashionista should be able to get behind.

SOA Governance

Sun, 28 Oct 2007 07:30:40 GMT

To optimize their SOA investment and accomplish SOA business goals such as increasing business agility, organizations are turning to SOA governance. An effective SOA governance strategy must not only ensure that the behavior of project development teams is in-line with corporate goals; it also must address security and compliance issues that arise from regulations and business demands such as Sarbanes-Oxley, MIFID, and Visa PCI, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. And, finally, it must control rogue services.
The Progress Actional product family complements governance tools such as registries and repositories and provides organizations with comprehensive runtime SOA governance capabilities from monitoring SOA operations, to improving business outcomes, to ensuring enforcement of security, compliance, and business policies and controlling rogue services.
Fundamental SOA Governance: Ensuring Reliable SOA Operations

As a governance foundation, organizations must be able to understand what services are operating in their SOA, how they are operating, and who is using them in order to ensure reliable operations. But how can you monitor for service performance and availability in the loosely coupled SOA environment, where services that can be reused and recombined execute across diverse computing resources
Progress Actional SOA Operations provides IT organizations with the end-to-end SOA visibility needed to ensure SOA reliability while eliminating most of the coding and manual configuration required by other solutions to achieve this end. It automatically discovers and monitors services and triggers alerts on performance and availability issues. These alerts, in turn, generate flow maps of the individual "violating" SOA process. SOA administrators can drill down into an individual transaction��to perform root cause analysis, so they can act quickly to solve problems before they impact end users.
Achieving Business Goals with SOA Governance

Once the SOA is running successfully, governance must be established to control the quality of service the SOA delivers to customers, partners, and other consumers and to meet service-level agreements (SLAs). However, to achieve this level of governance requires business insight into SOA operations. This is the basis for aligning the SOA with business goals.
Progress Actional Continuous Service Optimization uniquely provides a detailed business perspective for viewing how the SOA is serving customers. Actional captures metrics on service levels, processes, and key business indicators related to the underlying IT infrastructures in multiple dimensions, for example, for individual customers, customer groups, regions, and custom-defined segments. This information provides the basis for optimizing SOA behavior dynamically or manually, using Actional control mechanisms, in order to ensure quality of service for customers.
Reducing Security and Compliance Risk with SOA Governance

No areas of SOA governance are more vital than enforcing security and compliance. Breaches in these areas can lead to financial penalties, litigation, and other business losses. But SOA governance in these areas isn't easy. It requires strict monitoring of information contained within the context of messages flowing through the SOA and consistent enforcement across the many services that make up an SOA business process. When IT developers are responsible for policies related to the services they create, there is a risk of inconsistent policies and coverage gaps.
Progress ?/span>Actional for Active Policy Enforcement provides centralized security and compliance policy management with distributed policy enforcement. This allows organizations to put policy into the hands of security and compliance experts and empowers them to author policies once and apply them consistently across the SOA��guaranteeing complete coverage to reduce risk and cost.
Finding and Controlling the Rogue Services

Undetected, rogue services can wreak havoc��exposing sensitive information to unauthorized users and eluding compliance audits. Even when rogue services aren't malicious, they can subvert system capacity planning. What is SOA governance if not control of what's occurring and who is using the SOA
The Progress Actional Governance Integration Module integrates with third-party governance tools, such as Systinet, and provides detection, interruption, and reporting controls. It automatically finds all rogue services and stops them until they are reviewed and approved. Finally, it feeds back runtime metadata on actual services, their usage and dependencies, to add value to registry and repository metadata and help service developers minimize SOA disruption during service versioning and maintenance.
