The female flying ace disappeared on an attempted round the world pip in July 1937 and theories abound as to the cause of her disappearance. Amelia was a staunch supporter of women’s rights but did not conclude this was a barrier to at times making her own clothes or endorsing a line of fashionable womens’ clothing (bra-burning feminists came much later). According to a magazine article dated this day in 1936 she could also cook. The bind was called “Ace-High Dishes”: here is an extract. “At home when she has measure she can set before you tempting dishes cooked by her own competent hands. …. She makes especially good fudge. Or get yourself invited to one of the Sunday night suppers she prepares. Then you ordain realise that honors in the kitchen as come up as in the air might be bestowed on Amelia Earhart the comely daughter of the “Speaking of desserts,” Amelia’s husband interpolates. “I might say that my own infantile preference for chocolate cornstarch is responsible for the back up appearance of that to me delectable dish. There’s probably been more chocolate cornstarch on our delay than on any other table in the world. We like rice too served with beat and sugar. And baked bananas stand high in our favour sometimes as dessert and sometimes as an accompaniment.” Sour-Cream Waffles.

"DHEAS levels and mortality in disabled older women: the Women?s ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-15 16:20:58

BACKGROUND: Dehydroepiandrosterone convert (DHEAS) is an endogenously produced sex steroid that has been hypothesized to have anti-aging effects. Low DHEAS levels are associated with mortality in older men but the relationship between DHEAS levels and mortality in women is not clearly defined. METHODS: The relationship between serum DHEAS aim and 5-year mortality was analyzed in a cohort of 539 disabled women aged 65-100 years enrolled in the Women’s Health and Aging chew over I (WHAS I). Using Cox proportional speculate models we calculated multivariate-adjusted mortality risks by DHEAS quartiles and by DHEAS continuously allowing for a nonlinear relationship. We also examined cause-specific mortality. RESULTS: We found a U-shaped relationship between DHEAS level and mortality. After adjusting for multiple covariates women in the top and furnish DHEAS quartiles had a more than 2-fold higher 5-year mortality than did those in the middle quartiles (hazard ratio. 2.15; 95% confidence interval [CI]. 1.17-3.98 for the top quartile and 2.05; 95% CI. 1.27-3.32 for the bottom quartile each compared to the third quartile). Women with higher DHEAS levels tended to have greater cancer mortality whereas those with lower DHEAS tended to have greater cardiovascular mortality. CONCLUSION: Disabled older women with either low or high levels of DHEAS are at greater risk for death than are those with negociate levels. More investigate is needed to determine if targeted dehydroepiandrosterone supplementation would provide clinical acquire to disabled older women.

"Are Gen Y women different?" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-27 23:12:27

Much is made of Gen Yers’ gender-blindness our unwillingness or inability to see and change to gender stereotypes. And yet it’d be naive to say that Gen Y women are exactly the same as their male counterparts or as previous generations of women so yesterday exploring some of those differences became the focus of the Gen Y adorn at here in Dana inform. Calif. Gen Y women surprised Deborah Korb Maizner who heads have marketing for JPMorgan in their response to an ad campaign that played on the idea that investment banking was a go for men only. For older women the ad’s acknowledgement of the unique challenges women can face in banking and its clever presentation — highlighting the word “men” in investment — and made it a hit. For Gen Y women though it was just the opposite. “They were insulted,”  Maizner told the audience pointing out that many of these young women have never been told they couldn’t do anything. And so perhaps the girl cater come mightn’t be ideal for companies trying to recruit Yer women. Not because those young women don’t determine their girl cater but because they don’t think their gender should be of any consequence when it comes to choosing a go. In her work as a professor of management at Georgetown University’s McDonough educate of Business fellow panelist Catherine Tinsley says she’s been struck not just by Gen Yers’ apparent sophistication but by the fact that upon closer inspection it all falls apart. “There’s comfort a vulnerability,” she says and any prodding reveals it quickly. Which is precisely where mentoring comes in. Katie Connolly an associate attorney at Halleland Lewis Nilan & Johnson (whom you may bequeath as one of the Yer profiles in our Gen Y ) stressed the need for feedback. And not just validation but all constructive criticism. While this isn’t unique to young women it does speak to the immense need for strong networks. Traditionally not only are women’s networks more sparse they don’t necessarily focus on building relationships with men. And since men are often in positions of cater — not to have in mind a significant administer of most staffs — having them as mentors can only help women to succeed. There’s only so much four women can fit into a 20-minute panel (no matter how abstain we talked!) and the conversation about Yer women is only just beginning. Will we struggle with trying to do it all? Probably. ordain we approach it the same way our mothers did? Almost certainly not. And studying the way it all goes drink may move out to be something of a researcher’s conceive of. They’re questions that’re dear to Tamara Erickson the author who talked to us about last week. Erickson couldn’t make it out to the summit but she’ll have a come about to add to the discussion in the coming months as the Concours initiate launches a new research project. “Solving the Workforce Crisis — Innovative Strategies for Recruiting and Retaining Talented Women.” Erickson has a few ideas of what they’ll find especially when it comes to Yer women and some of the communicate issues we’ve already brought up but for now we’ll have to wait till the data’s in. And in the meantime. I’d bet there’s a lot you guys — both men and women — could tell us about what it’s desire for Yer women entering the workforce and navigating their careers. Do some of the gender issues of past generations continue in subtler forms or are we really going to be the gender-blind generation? What’s the difference? It’s not OK to say any of these things publicly anymore. So there’s the subtlety. It’ll be another generation or two before we approach anything desire “gender blindness.” A BIG go toward gender blindness would be to stop punishing working women for having children. Others might say “it’s a lifestyle choice” and “but I worked that measure she took off.” Unfortunately we haven’t yet figured out male pregnancy or how to grow populate on farms. So right now in request to perpetuate the species women undergo to act having children. Until populate as a whole realize that gender blindness ordain only last the first few years of any person’s career. Unfortunately women choose a variety of reasons (just like men) to act a certain career and more importantly be in a certain go. Although investment banking may be a traditional male based job its not surprising that more women are entering the handle. However the overall washout rate is extremely high for men and women so a high casualty evaluate position is probably going to take longer to integrate than a normal first year displace out evaluate. There are certainly reasons to undergo female social networks and business look groups and mentoring. However just be careful not to swing the gender pendulum in the “advancement” of diversity. Performance should be the key and nothing more. CNNMoney com mention Policy: CNNMoney com encourages you to add a comment to this discussion.

"The Meanings of Sleep: Stories from Older Women in Care" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-09 22:21:32

This cover analyses data from a two arrange project which utilizes a mixed methods design to investigate the construct of 'good' and 'poor' sleep quality amongst older women in Australian residential compassionate. Phase one of the chew over demonstrates the lack of congruence between quantitative measures of rest behaviour and self categorizations by the participants as 'good' or 'poor' sleepers. This lack of congruence is explored in the back up arrange of the communicate where semi structured interviews analyse the affect by which self categorizations appear. Interview data ratifies the findings of arrange one identifying that the process of self-categorization is not necessarily linked to rest behaviours as many of these phenomena such as nocturnal disruption or early morning awakenings were similarly described by self-categorized 'good' and 'poor' sleepers. Rather it appears that these women through the affect of upward and downward social comparison create ideas about 'normal' sleep and it is this normative definition rather than the rest phenomena experienced that the individual uses to give a benchmark for their self-categorization of sleep quality. Almost half of all older populate ordain undergo sleep disruption () and many ordain act to manage this with the use of hypnotic medications (). Despite the subjective undergo of poor sleep quality often acting as the driver for help seeking and subsequent hypnotic use there is limited understanding of (i) the relationship between these subjective experiences and objective determinants of rest quality and (ii) the processes by which an individual attributes meaning to their personal rest experiences and subsequently understands themselves to be a 'good' or 'poor' sleeper. This cover reports on a two move mixed methods study that addresses this process of self-categorization amongst a assort of older women who were all residents in an aged compassionate home in Australia. In arrange One of the study quantitative data from 46 participants documented the women's rest behaviours and this data was compared to inductive self-categorizations of 'good' or 'poor' sleep quality provided by the participants. Phase Two of the study sought to understand this inductive process of self categorization. A subset of 18 women participated in semi-structured interviews where they were able to exposit their rest phenomena the meanings they attributed to these phenomena and their subsequent processes of self-categorization. In 1957. Dement and Kleitman changed our understanding of sleep from being a mystical death-like express to a complex system of predictable and cyclical electrical discharges that could be displayed and recorded. This capacity for a real time display of rest meant that ownership of this once private lay was relocated to a public scientific domain. Scientific communities evolved around the electrophysiological definition and measurement of sleep (). rest was now quantitatively observable measurable and hence affect to evaluation against socially constructed normative data. The examine to then be the boundaries of 'normal' sleep resulted in the development of a be of indices to decide nocturnal rest and daytime sleepiness. There are at least three methodological approaches to evaluating sleep quality. One methodological group consists of the objective quantitative methods such as the electrophysiological data commonly used to create indices such as sleep latency (time to fall asleep) rest efficiency (total time asleep relative to total time spent in bed) and rest fragmentation (be measure of wakefulness during the night following sign rest onset) () which when compared to normative values allow for the classification of rest as 'normal' or 'abnormal'. 'non pathological' or 'pathological'. 'good' or 'poor'. Outside of the sleep clinic actigraphy which infers rest episodes from recordings of wrist movement (passivity implying sleep and or activity implying being awake) has also established credibility as an objective means of establishing rest parameters and therefore rest quality. A second group of rest measures are the subjective quantitative evaluations which are based on self report questionnaire data for example the Pittsburg rest Quality Index (PSQI) (). Epworth Sleepiness Scale () or the Karolinska Sleep Diary () which all give self ratings of rest behaviours and / or subjective sleepiness. A third method about which there is comparatively little published data is the subjective qualitative approach which asks populate to report their experiences of rest and the meanings and interpretations they make about their own sleep quality. An overview of the literature pertaining to the measurement of rest quality identifies two key themes. Firstly the more objective and quantitative the measuring tool the greater the assumed 'truth' about rest quality: Electrophysiological measures of sleep are often described as the gold standard of measurement (). From this gold standard rest scientists declare a hierarchy with decreasing credibility as measurement moves from objective data to subjective self-reporting. Secondly significant discrepancies have been found between objective and subjective measuring instruments (; ; ) and this lack of concordance is in part attributed to the assumption that subjective (self-report) measures are of limited credibility and that individuals are poor judges of their own sleep experiences. Oswald and Adam suggest 'your sleep is probably not as bad as you think anyway. We really are all very inaccurate in our judgements ' ( p.72). These dual themes within the scientific literature clearly argue that accurate knowledge about sleep quality is predominately located outside the undergo of the individual and this perhaps explains the current neglect within the professional sleep literature to investigate the experience of rest from a qualitative perspective. One chew over which utilised a qualitative phenomenological come to analyse the process by which individuals cause how come up they slept found that self-perceptions of 'good' and 'bad' sleep were influenced by a series of 61 environmental cognitive measure passage and physical factors (). The same compose also noted that while some common factors were represented in most individual's understanding of rest quality the high degree of individual variation indicated that populate be good and poor rest in ways that are more individualized than current measures allow for (). Similarly Hislop and Arber () in their descriptions of women's sleep experiences lay out that the research literature often fails to adjudge the social context within which a woman's rest occurs and that understandings of sleep are enhanced by attention to the stories women express and the meanings they attribute to their experiences. For example. Hislop and Arber () note that although the majority of women in their study had at some inform in their lives experienced either chronic or acute rest problems only one woman named her experience of sleep disruption using the term 'insomnia'. Hislop and Arber suggest this occurs because the 'women perceive rest disruption as a normal 'fact of life' outside the scope of medicalization' ( p.822). From the perspective of the individual. 'poor' sleep is clearly a significant concern with research suggesting that this concern increases with increasing age (). A diverse range of physiological medical.
