At least 18 killed in shootout in Acapulco – Los Angeles Times
Mexico’s tourism promoters have sought to allay fears by arguing that, despite frequent killings in hot spots along the U.S. border, the county’s main resorts are safe. They have also offered discounts on hotels to lure travelers back after the flu outbreak.
Yeah…
Take Home Lesson:
Consider simply adding the usual recommended debits for CHF to the DM rate.
After all, the HF risk is doubled but not the mortality. And critics of this study question its statistical validity.
Thiazolidinediones such as pioglitazone have been shown to prevent or delay the onset of diabetes when given to patients at high risk of developing diabetes. But other studies have found that the drug class appears to inhibit the development of atherosclerosis.

After reading this article I thought it would be appropriate to let my readers know why I blog:
I read a lot more than the article links provided in my posts. I write a lot more than just the words in my posts. My sincere hope is that the reader finds the information here to be useful and of value in their work and careers.
All I do is point. The rest is up to you.
University of Oklahoma researchers shed light on treatment possibilities | NewsOK.com
The article does not reveal the number of humans studied but the findings are definitely interesting. Do watch the video because it offers additional information that is not in written form. You will be subjected to a short commercial for beef.
Ironic.
FT.com / Companies / Banks – BBVA offers staff five years’ leave
Workforce and staffing issues have always been an interesting area to me. The current WTF economic mess does spur creativity in those of us who like simple things (like eating). Courtesy of an NPR RSS feed I found my attention drawn to this article on www.ft.com describing a most creative workforce reduction idea.
BBVA is offering staff three options: first, leave of three to five
years for long-term employees who want to undertake “personal or professional projects”, with 30 per cent pay and healthcare on top; second, a shorter working week with reduced pay; and third, special time off for up to two years for those who want to care for children or relatives or take postgraduate courses. All are voluntary and the company reserves the right to refuse those who apply.
I haven’t formulated an opinion yet. But if you are one of the unfortunate few that has suffered a corporate mandated pay cut, this just might be the other shoe to drop. I sent an email to John Hollon at www.workforce.com asking for his opinion. Stay tuned.
