<div style="text-align: justify;">
Most of the people think that FB is just a social
networking website and you can use it only for entertainment or time pass, but
only FEW people know that you can use Facebook as a cash cow. But it’s possible
only when you’ve a perfect strategy and a complete step by step
blueprint. Facebook has more than 600 million users today and it’s a huge
market. If you learn how to monetize this market then you’ll start making money
in no time.</div>
<h1 align="center" style="text-align: center;">
What I do to make money with
Facebook?</h1>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Few weeks back, after spending a lot of time and
efforts, I developed a really powerful method to make money with Facebook. I
call it - <b>“Facebook Wealth Formula” (FWF). </b>Using FWF you
can make <b>$500 a day</b> from your own Facebook account
and you don’t need to have any prior experience or special skills. Sounds
interesting? Then please keep reading… Reading this whole page
will take <b>only 3 minutes</b>, but it can be a <b>turning
point of your life! </b>Not only this, you’ll get your very own personal
copy of Facebook Wealth Formula from this page, TOTALLY FREE!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Usually, I sell FWF at a high price on the
websites like Avangate, PayLoadz and Clickbank but because not every one is
capable of paying money so I’ve created this website solely for the purpose of
giving away <b>45 copies</b>, <b>FREE OF COST! </b>Yes, 100%
FREE and you won’t have to pay even a single penny to get it! <b>Happy?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I know that there’re a lot of newbies who’re
struggling to make a fortune on the internet. So, by offering these “No
Cost” copies I am helping them to get started, fast! I’ve made this
website especially to offer free copies, so <b>consider yourself very
lucky</b> if you’ve got one. For your kind information, I would like
to tell you that while you’ve <b>100% FREE access</b> to it, FWF is
still selling for a high price on Clickbank and Payloadz . All of my paid
customers are really very happy. Most of them have started making money with
Facebook within just 2-3 weeks. <b>Isn’t it awesome?</b></div>
<h2 align="center" style="text-align: center;">
What This Method Is All About?</h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
FWF comes as a PDF file which contains TONS of
screenshots and every micro detail about this method. After reading it, you’ll
learn how to make <b>$500 a day</b> from your own Facebook account
even if you don’t have any website or a product to sell. Yes, you read it
right! After reading this PDF, anyone can make <b>$500 a day</b>
from it’s Facebook account with total ease.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you start applying it IMMEDIATELY, then you’ll
see the results <b>within just 4 weeks. </b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is the <b>most updated, guaranteed and
100% successful</b> method of making money with Facebook. PERIOD!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Because, I am not charging anything from you and
I am offering FWF totally free at this special page (limited copies), so
there’s no need to “lure” you by showing any income or traffic screenshots. But
still just to tell you how powerful this method is, I would like to share some
of the income screenshots below. I spend <b>not more than 30 minutes</b>
a day to keep this system running and still make a killing out of it.</div>

<h1>
10 Reasons Your Belly Fat Isn't Going Away</h1>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yes, stomach pudge may be stubborn, but here are a slew of
research-proven ways to dump it for good.</div>
<h2>
Lose the pudge</h2>
A little bit of belly fat is actually good for you: it protects your
stomach, intestines, and other delicate organs. But too much fat is anything
but healthy. Extra fat cells deep in your abdomen (aka visceral fat) generate
adipose hormones and adipokines—chemical troublemakers that travel to your
blood vessels and organs, where they cause inflammation that can contribute to
problems like heart disease and diabetes. The good news? Every pound you shed
can help reduce your girth. "Once women start losing weight, they
typically lose 30% more abdominal fat compared with total fat," says Rasa Kazlauskaite, MD, an
endocrinologist at the Rush University Prevention
Center in Chicago. Even better, the choices you make
every day can supercharge your ability to burn belly fat. Here are 10 common
pitfalls—and ways to undo each one.<br />

Tap your foot</h1>
Your skinnier friends are probably fidgeters, who burn up to 350 calories a
day just by tapping their feet or being restless.<br />
<br />
Try it for a few days. Walk around while you’re on the phone, or tap out a tune

try these 25 easy tweaks—and get the slim body you want in no time.<br />

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 17.0pt;">That is not to say that Cressida doesn't scrub up nicely. A
roster of summer society weddings showcased her weakness for boho maxi dresses
in jazzy patterns paired with neat cropped jackets. For a pre-Wimbledon party
(she's a keen tennis player) she donned a wafty jumpsuit, posing politely with
her half-sister Isabella Branson. She's wisely steered clear of hats, leaving
millinery statements to her friends the Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice, opting
instead for hippie-ish flowers. Not for Cressie the thrice-weekly blow-dries;
she prefers a more tousled, natural approach, and is as wedded to that
aforementioned scrunchie as Kate is to her nude LK Bennett courts.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

New book from Malala Yousafzai details journey from schoolgirl to activist<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
A year ago, Malala Yousafzai was a 15-year-old schoolgirl in northwest Pakistan, thinking about calculus and chemistry, Justin Bieber songs and Twilight movies.<br />
<br />
Today she’s the world-famous survivor of a Taliban assassination attempt, an activist for girls’ education – and a contender to win the Nobel Peace Prize later this week.<br />
<br />
It’s easy to forget she is still a teenager, and now a long way from home.<br />
<br />
The memoir I Am Malala goes some way toward redressing that balance. Published around the world on Tuesday, the book reveals a girl who likes Ugly Betty and the cooking show Masterchef, worries about her clothes and her hair, but also has an iron determination that comes from experience beyond her 16 years.<br />
<br />
The book, written with the British journalist Christina Lamb, recounts Malala’s life before and after the moment on Oct. 9, 2012, when a gunman boarded a school bus full of girls in Pakistan’s Swat Valley and asked “Who is Malala?” Then he shot her in the head.<br />
<br />
The shooting is described briefly but vividly in the book, which is briskly written but full of arresting detail. “The air smelt of diesel, bread and kebab mixed with the stink from the stream where people still dumped their rubbish,” Malala remembers. One of her friends tells her later that the gunman’s hand shook as he fired.<br />
<br />
Around that pivotal event, the book weaves Malala’s life story into the broader tale of her home region of Swat, a remote, mountainous region near the Afghan border. She says it is “the most beautiful place in the world,” but it’s also a crossroads traversed for millennia by armies and invaders, from Alexander the Great to Winston Churchill.<br />
<br />
Into this valley, in the years after 9-11 and the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan, came the Islamic fundamentalist Taliban. The book describes their arrival – preaching against girls’ education, shutting down DVD sellers and barber shops and displaying the bodies of people they executed. They blew up the region’s ancient Buddha statues, and then they began blowing up schools.<br />
<br />
“They destroyed everything old and brought nothing new,” Malala writes.<br />
<br />
Malala considers herself a believing Muslim and a proud member of the Pashtun ethnic group, but recounts how from an early age she questioned her culture’s attitude toward women.<br />
<br />
“When I was born, people in our village commiserated with my mother and nobody congratulated my father,” she writes.<br />
<br />
Her father felt differently. The book recounts her debt to Ziauddin Yousafzai, an educator who founded the school Malala attended and kept it open to girls in the face of pressure and threats. He passed on to his daughter a hunger for knowledge and a questioning spirit.<br />
<br />
At 11, she began giving TV interviews in Pakistan about girls’ education. In 2009, she started writing a blog for the BBC Urdu service under a pseudonym.<br />
<br />
She soon became well known within Pakistan – and therefore a potential Taliban target. But she was reassured by the thought: “Even the Taliban don’t kill children.”<br />
<br />
That optimism proved misplaced, but – miraculously, it seemed to many – Malala survived the shooting.<br />
<br />
The final part of the book describes Malala’s life from the moment she regained consciousness in a British hospital, where she had been flown for specialist treatment, with the thought: “Thank God I’m not dead.”<br />
<br />
She undergoes intense pain and multiple surgeries. In the hospital, Malala asks why her abdomen appears hard and swollen. It is the top of her skull, removed to alleviate pressure and stored there until it could be reattached.<br />
<br />
There are other striking, surprising details. Malaala’s favourite actress is Angelina Jolie. She loves the TV show Ugly Betty, whose central character works at a fashion magazine; Malala dreams “of one day going to New York and working on a magazine like her.”<br />
<br />
In the hospital she enjoys the Shrek movies, but is shocked by the scene in Bend it Like Beckham when the female soccer players take off their jerseys to reveal sports bras.<br />
<br />
She reads The Wonderful Wizard of Oz – sent to her by former British prime minister Gordon Brown – and identifies with Dorothy, trying to get home.<br />
<br />
Malala goes to school in England now, and lives with her family in a house behind a big gate in the city of Birmingham. It reminds her a bit of being under house arrest.<br />
<br />
The Malala Fund set up in her name campaigns for girls’ education around the world. She has received multiple awards and addressed the United Nations on her 16th birthday. Later this month she is due to meet Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace.<br />
<br />
She remains determined to return to Pakistan one day and enter politics. And she says the Taliban’s attempt to silence her has backfired spectacularly.<br />
<br />
“When I was shot they thought the people would be silenced, they thought that no one would talk,” she told the BBC in a recent interview.<br />
<br />
“I think they might be repenting why they shot Malala.”<br />

“I am thrilled,” Ms. Skrebes said, referring to her policy. “It’s affordable, good coverage. And the Web site of the Minnesota exchange was pretty simple to use, pretty straightforward. The language was really clear.”</div>

The experience described by Ms. Skrebes is in stark contrast to reports of widespread technical problems that have hampered enrollment in the online health insurance marketplace run by the federal government since it opened on Oct. 1. While many people have been frustrated in their efforts to obtain coverage through the federal exchange, which is used by more than 30 states, consumers have had more success signing up for health insurance through many of the state-run exchanges, federal and state officials and outside experts say.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Alan R. Weil, the executive director of the National Academy for State Health Policy, an independent nonpartisan group, credited the relative early success of some state exchanges to the fact that they could leap on problems more quickly than the sprawling, complex federal marketplace.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
“Individual state operations are more adaptable,” Mr. Weil said. “That does not mean that states get everything right. But they can respond more quickly to solve problems as they arise.”</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In addition, some states allow consumers to shop for insurance, comparing costs and benefits of different policies, without first creating an online account — a barrier for many people trying to use the federal exchange.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The state-run exchange in New York announced Tuesday that it had signed up more than 40,000 people who applied for insurance and were found eligible.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
“This fast pace of sign-ups shows that New York State’s exchange is working smoothly with an overwhelming response from New Yorkers eager to get access to low-cost health insurance,” said Donna Frescatore, the executive director of the state exchange.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In Washington State, the state-run exchange had a rocky start on Oct. 1, but managed to turn things around quickly by adjusting certain parameters on its Web site to alleviate bottlenecks. By Monday, more than 9,400 people had signed up for coverage. The Washington Health Benefit Exchange does not require users to create an account before browsing plans.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
“The site is up and running smoothly,” said Michael Marchand, a spokesman for the Washington exchange. “We’re seeing a lot of use, a lot of people coming to the Web site. If anything, I think it’s increasing.”</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Other states reporting a steady stream of enrollments in recent days include California, Connecticut, Kentucky and Rhode Island.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In Connecticut, a spokesman for the state-run exchange, Access Health CT, said users have generally had a smooth experience with the Web site other than “a couple of bumps and hiccups on the first day.”</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
By Monday afternoon, the Connecticut exchange had processed 1,175 applications, said the spokesman, Jason Madrak.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Daniel N. Mendelson, the chief executive of Avalere Health, a research and consulting company, said: “On balance, the state exchanges are doing better than the federal exchange. The federal exchange has, for all practical purposes, been impenetrable. Systems problems are preventing any sort of meaningful engagement.”</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
“By contrast,” said Mr. Mendelson, who was a White House budget official under President Bill Clinton, “in most states, we can get information about what is being offered and the prices, and some states are allowing full enrollment. All the state exchanges that we have visited are doing better than the federal exchange at this point.”</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In California, Peter V. Lee, the executive director of the state-run exchange, said that more than 16,000 applications had been completed in the first five days of open enrollment. Mr. Lee said that while the consumer experience “hasn’t been perfect,” it has been “pretty darn good.”</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Some state-run exchanges have run into difficulties because they rely on the federal marketplace for parts of the application process, like verifying an applicant’s identity. Minnesota, Nevada and Rhode Island are among the states that have reported problems with the “identity-proofing” process, which requires state-run exchanges to communicate with the federal data hub.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Brandon Hardy, 31, of Louisville, Ky., was one of the first to sign up for health insurance through Kentucky’s state-run exchange, working with an application counselor who guided him through the process last Wednesday. Mr. Hardy, who is uninsured and has epileptic seizures that land him in the hospital every few months, spent about 45 minutes filling out the online application, and learned that he would be eligible for Medicaid under the health care law.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
“It was pretty easy,” Mr. Hardy said of the process. “What I really need is a neurologist, and now hopefully that will happen. This is like a huge relief.”</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Attempts to sign up for coverage through the federal marketplace have often proved more frustrating.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Bruce A. Charette, 60, of Tulsa, Okla., said he had been trying to log onto the Web site for the federal exchange since last Wednesday, but had not been able to see the available plans or their rates.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Mr. Charette said he was asked verification questions that did not appear to match his identity. One question, he said, asked about the name of a pet for which he had purchased health insurance two years ago. “I don’t have any pets,” he said.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
“It’s obvious that the site is overloaded,” said Mr. Charette, an electrician who works in the aviation industry and said he did not have health insurance. “I am not going to stare at a computer screen for 45 minutes, waiting for a response. It looks as if the Web site is freezing up.”</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Still, some groups helping people sign up for insurance through the federal marketplace said they were finally able to complete applications on Tuesday, a week into open enrollment.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
“This was the first day that I have been able to get onto the Web site and sign people up,” said Laura Line, corporate assistant director for Resources for Human Development in Philadelphia, which has a contract to help people in Southeastern Pennsylvania enroll in health plans through the federal exchange. “We have been setting appointments and answering a ton of phone calls now that we are able to do something.”</div>

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Women who smoke during

in childhood, researchers found.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Across three different
studies, children whose mothers smoked during pregnancy -- whether they were
reared by their genetically-related mother or an adoptive mother -- had higher
mean scores on measures of conduct problems compared with children whose birth
mothers did not smoke during pregnancy, according to Gordon Harold, PhD, of the
University of Leicester in England, and colleagues.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">In the two studies (including one from the previous pair) that
included children adopted at birth and raised by genetically-unrelated mothers
-- but whose birth mothers smoked during pregnancy -- researchers found a
positive association between conduct problem scores and the number of
cigarettes that their genetically-related mothers smoked daily while pregnant (<em style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; outline: 0px;"><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;">P</span></em>=0.007 and<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><em style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; outline: 0px;"><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;">P</span></em>=0.04).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Prior studies have
shown a relationship between children's conduct disorders and prenatal smoking
in mothers, although that research did not separate prenatal environmental
influences from genetic and postnatal environmental factors.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Past research also has
shown a relationship between<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>smoking
while pregnant and a child's hearing loss<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>and<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>obesity in the offspring.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">The authors studied the
relationship between genetically-related mothers' smoking while pregnant with
their children's conduct disorders in three studies of 1,088, 310, and 636
children, respectively, raised by genetically-related or -unrelated mothers.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">The first study -- the
Christchurch Health and Development Study -- was a longitudinal birth cohort in
New Zealand that assessed maternal smoking during pregnancy and child behavior
until age 7.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">The second study -- the
Early Growth and Development Study -- was a U.S., ongoing, longitudinal,
multisite study of adopted children and parents, as well as birth parents.
Birth parent data were used to assess maternal smoking, while adoptive parent
data were used to assess the child's home environment.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">The third study -- the
Cardiff In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) study -- was an English study of children
conceived through reproductive technologies such as homologous IVF,
single-parent IVF, and embryo donation, where authors focused only on children
born through maternal IVF.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Conduct problems were
reported by mothers and teachers in the Christchurch study, by adoptive mothers
and fathers in the Early Growth study, and by mothers and fathers in the IVF
study.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Neonatal maternal
smoking was reported retrospectively in each study.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Outcomes were adjusted
for child sex, birth weight, race, placement age, breastfeeding, maternal
education, maternal age at birth, family breakdown, parenting practices, and
family socioeconomic status.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Parenting practices
were assessed through measures of maternal emotional responsiveness and
avoidance of restriction, and punishment and hostility.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Maternal smoking habits
were broken down into zero cigarettes daily, one to nine cigarettes daily, and
10 or more cigarettes daily.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">The prevalence of
smoking varied by study. The New Zealand study had a prenatal smoking
prevalence of 50% among children raised by genetically-unrelated mothers and
32.7% by those raised by their birth mothers. In the U.S. sample, smoking was
common to 40.8% of pregnant mothers. The English study had a prevalence of 5.7%
of smoking mothers who raised their children, and 3.9% of smoking mothers whose
children were raised by others.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Although rates of conduct problems differed between studies,
associations between maternal smoking and child behavior problems were
significant in each. However, there was no significant relation between
maternal smoking and behavior issues in children born through embryo donation (<em style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; outline: 0px;"><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;">P</span></em>=0.98).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">An accompanying
editorial by Theodore Slotkin, PhD, of Duke University Medical Center, noted
that "There is little doubt that at least one component of tobacco smoke,
nicotine, is sufficient to disrupt brain development and to evoke subsequent
behavioral abnormalities" in prior research, and that the current study
clearly shows that the effects seen in animal models are replicated in humans.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">The model used in this
literature should inform future studies into toxicants responsible for
neurodevelopmental disorders related to cigarette smoke, Slotkin added.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">The authors found their
study was limited by the small number of genetically-unrelated smokers in the
English study, as was the prevalence of maternal smoking during pregnancy among
those genetically-related mothers. The study was also limited by a lack of data
on co-exposure to other drugs or alcohol, use of self-reported smoking data,
and lack of time-specific data on smoking and other behaviors and exposures.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Prior studies have
shown a relationship between children's conduct disorders and prenatal smoking
in mothers, although that research did not separate prenatal environmental
influences from genetic and postnatal environmental factors.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Past research also has
shown a relationship between<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>smoking
while pregnant and a child's hearing loss<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>and<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>obesity in the offspring.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">The authors studied the
relationship between genetically-related mothers' smoking while pregnant with
their children's conduct disorders in three studies of 1,088, 310, and 636
children, respectively, raised by genetically-related or -unrelated mothers.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">The first study -- the
Christchurch Health and Development Study -- was a longitudinal birth cohort in
New Zealand that assessed maternal smoking during pregnancy and child behavior
until age 7.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">The second study -- the
Early Growth and Development Study -- was a U.S., ongoing, longitudinal,
multisite study of adopted children and parents, as well as birth parents.
Birth parent data were used to assess maternal smoking, while adoptive parent
data were used to assess the child's home environment.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">The third study -- the
Cardiff In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) study -- was an English study of children
conceived through reproductive technologies such as homologous IVF,
single-parent IVF, and embryo donation, where authors focused only on children
born through maternal IVF.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Conduct problems were
reported by mothers and teachers in the Christchurch study, by adoptive mothers
and fathers in the Early Growth study, and by mothers and fathers in the IVF
study.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Neonatal maternal
smoking was reported retrospectively in each study.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Outcomes were adjusted
for child sex, birth weight, race, placement age, breastfeeding, maternal
education, maternal age at birth, family breakdown, parenting practices, and
family socioeconomic status.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Parenting practices
were assessed through measures of maternal emotional responsiveness and
avoidance of restriction, and punishment and hostility.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Maternal smoking habits
were broken down into zero cigarettes daily, one to nine cigarettes daily, and
10 or more cigarettes daily.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">The prevalence of
smoking varied by study. The New Zealand study had a prenatal smoking
prevalence of 50% among children raised by genetically-unrelated mothers and
32.7% by those raised by their birth mothers. In the U.S. sample, smoking was
common to 40.8% of pregnant mothers. The English study had a prevalence of 5.7%
of smoking mothers who raised their children, and 3.9% of smoking mothers whose
children were raised by others.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Although rates of conduct problems differed between studies,
associations between maternal smoking and child behavior problems were
significant in each. However, there was no significant relation between
maternal smoking and behavior issues in children born through embryo donation (<em style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; outline: 0px;"><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;">P</span></em>=0.98).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">An accompanying
editorial by Theodore Slotkin, PhD, of Duke University Medical Center, noted
that "There is little doubt that at least one component of tobacco smoke,
nicotine, is sufficient to disrupt brain development and to evoke subsequent
behavioral abnormalities" in prior research, and that the current study
clearly shows that the effects seen in animal models are replicated in humans.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">The model used in this
literature should inform future studies into toxicants responsible for
neurodevelopmental disorders related to cigarette smoke, Slotkin added.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div style="line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 11.25pt; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Droid Serif","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt;">The authors found their
study was limited by the small number of genetically-unrelated smokers in the
English study, as was the prevalence of maternal smoking during pregnancy among
those genetically-related mothers. The study was also limited by a lack of data
on co-exposure to other drugs or alcohol, use of self-reported smoking data,
and lack of time-specific data on smoking and other behaviors and exposures.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">The White House and senior intelligence officials opposed the
amendment by Republican Representative Justin Amash of Michigan, which had been
prompted by Snowden's revelations. Snowden, a fugitive from the United States,
has been holed up at a Moscow airport for the past month unable to secure

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">Republican Representative Tom Cotton, who endorsed the NSA
program, described the "metadata" being collected as essentially a
five-column spreadsheet containing the number called, the number of the caller,
the date, the time and the duration of call.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin: 0in 0in 7.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">"This program has stopped dozens of terrorist attacks,"
Cotton said. "That means it has saved untold American lives. This
amendment ... does not limit the program, it does not modify it, it does not
constrain the program, it ends the program. It blows it up."<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin: 0in 0in 7.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">Cotton, a former Army captain who served in Iraq and Afghanistan,
said a comprehensive set of phone call records was needed in order for the
program to work.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">But Amash, a conservative Republican, and other supporters of the
amendment said the fundamental issue was whether the U.S. government had the
right to collect and retain the personal communications data of American
citizens.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin: 0in 0in 7.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">"Government's gone too far in the name of security,"
said Representative Ted Poe, a Texas Republican. "Rein in government

<div style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin: 0in 0in 7.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">Representative Joe Barton, another Texas Republican, said the
issue was not whether the NSA was sincere or careful in collecting data for use
in anti-terrorism operations.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin: 0in 0in 7.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">"It is (about) whether they have the right to collect the
data in the first place on every phone call on every American every day,"
he said, noting that the law only allowed collection of relevant data. "In
the NSA's interpretation of that, relevant is all data, all the time. That's
simply wrong."<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">U.S. spy chiefs, the White House and senior lawmakers responsible

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">Representatives Mike Rogers of Michigan and Dutch Ruppersberger of
Maryland, the Republican chairman and senior Democrat on the House Intelligence
Committee, said in a statement after the vote that the amendment would have
eliminated a "crucial counterterrorism tool."<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin: 0in 0in 7.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">"The charge that the program tramples on the privacy of

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">In an unusually public discourse on a secret spying program, James
Clapper, the director of national intelligence, urged the House in a statement
on Wednesday to be wary of the "potential effect of limiting the
intelligence community's capabilities" under the current law.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin: 0in 0in 7.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">Clapper's statement came amid a push against the proposal by the
White House and other senior intelligence officials, including Army General
Keith Alexander, the head of the NSA, who visited lawmakers on Capitol Hill on
Tuesday to warn about the implications of the amendment.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin: 0in 0in 7.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">The House overwhelming approved a separate amendment dealing with

amendment.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">But critics charged that the measure only restated current law,
which prevents collection of the content of emails and phone calls, and would
not deal with collection of "metadata."<o:p></o:p></span></div>

in Ladakh region, India and China will hold border talks on Tuesday. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;"><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">Three months after the 21-day stand-off in
Depsang valley in Ladakh, Chinese troops again came deep inside the Indian
territory in that area last week to reach upto 2 kms close to Indian posts, in
one of five such incursions in the recent past. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">In the Chumar sector, the Chinese troops had
entered the area on July 16-17 and July 18 also and before that, their choppers
had entered and violated Indian air space on July 11. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">Called the 'Working Mechanism for consultation
and coordination on India-China border affairs,' the talks will look at the
ground situation and how to resolve incursion. </span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; padding: 0in;"><br />
<!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--><br />
<!--[endif]--></span><span style="font-size: 26.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">Approximately
20 percent of women in the United States have their first baby after age 35,
and if you’re pregnant or trying to conceive, you might be worried about having
a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">After 35,
a woman has a higher chance for having a baby with trisomy 13, 18 and 21.
Trisomy 21 is also known as Down syndrome, a condition that affects one
in every 691 babies in the United States, according to the National Down
Syndrome Society.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">Down
syndrome is a big concern for women. According to a recent survey by Ariosa
Diagnostics, more than 50 percent of women said they were worried about Down
syndrome and other genetic conditions.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">At age 30,
the chances of having a baby with Down syndrome are about one in 900 and at age
35, they increase to one in 300. Yet “the majority of babies with Down syndrome
are born to women under age 35,” according to Dr. Genevieve Fairbrother, an
obstetrician and gynecologist in Atlanta, Ga. She said that although the
individual risk is lower, more women under 35 are having babies.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">Also,
women over 35 who become pregnant have an increased risk for gestational
diabetes, pre-eclampsia, placental abruption and placenta previa. They’re also
more likely to be overweight and have high blood pressure, diabetes and thyroid
disease.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">If you’re
over 35, here are some things you should consider:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; padding: 0in;">Lose
weight and get healthy</span></b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">“There’s
no magic threshold about 35,” Fairbrother said, who added that aside from
genetic problems, most women who give birth after 35 will be fine. Yet many
complications can be prevented with simple lifestyle choices. So if you have
diabetes, thyroid disease or are overweight, get your health under control. And
if you drink or smoke, stop immediately.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; padding: 0in;">Take a
prenatal vitamin</span></b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">Starting a
prenatal vitamin with at least 1 milligram of folic acid for at least three
months before getting pregnant and continuing through pregnancy can help
prevent neural tube defects like spina bifida.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; padding: 0in;">Get an
ultrasound at 6 weeks</span></b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">Most
providers won’t do an ultrasound until eight weeks, but if you’re over 35, you
should consider an ultrasound at six weeks, according to Dr. Sara Gottfried, an
obstetrician and gynecologist in Berkeley, Cali., and author of the New York
Times bestseller<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><i><span style="border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;">The Hormone Cure</span></i>. If you’re considering first trimester
genetic screening, an early ultrasound can help you get ahead of the game and
can also look for placenta previa – a condition that occurs when the placenta
cover’s the mom’s cervix.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;">Get screened for high blood pressure</span></b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">Since
blood pressure drops in the second trimester, it’s important to have your blood
pressure measured in the first trimester to determine your risk for
pre-eclampsia. “You don’t want to miss that window,” Gottfried said.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; padding: 0in;">Decide on
genetic tests early</span></b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">Before
getting pregnant or as soon as you know you are, it’s important to decide if
you want to have genetic testing. Tests like chorionic villus sampling
(CVS) need to be done early, usually around 11 weeks.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">“I think
one of the important pieces for a woman to understand (is) what her values are
and what kind of testing she wants to do, because the timing of it can come up
pretty fast,” Gottfried said.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; padding: 0in;">Consider
the risks</span></b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">At age 35,
you have the same risk of having a miscarriage or other issue if you have an
amniocentesis as you do having a baby with a genetic problem. An amniocentesis
is a prenatal diagnostic procedure that involves using a needle to take a
sample of amniotic fluid surrounding the fetus. According to the Ariosa
Diagnostics survey, 58 percent of women over 35 would avoid an
amniocentesis. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">If you’re
concerned, you might want to consider the new, non-invasive, and extremely
accurate cell-free DNA tests. “I think every couple has to ask themselves, ‘How
are we going to use this information, how accurate is it, how important is it
for us, what level of certainty do we need to know?’” Fairbrother said.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; padding: 0in;">Get
screened for gestational diabetes</span></b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">Gottfried
recommends women over 35 get an early screening glucose loading test done at
the first prenatal appointment to look for high blood sugar. Women should
then repeat the test between 24 and 28 weeks.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; padding: 0in;">Eat right
and exercise</span></b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">“Pregnancy
is a stress test on your body,” Fairbrother said. And gaining too much weight
can increase your risk for gestational diabetes, weight problems and for having
an overweight child.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">Aim to eat
an extra 200 to 300 calories a day, and be sure to eat plenty of lean proteins,
fruits, vegetables, whole grains, low-fat dairy and healthy fats. Also, 30
minutes or more of exercise on most days is ideal.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
