Eat To Defeat Menopause Dec 05, 2012

Show notes

Every four minutes an American woman enters menopause and with an ever-increasing life expectancy rate, that woman can spend as much as one third of her life going through “the change.” However, despite the inevitability and importance of menopause in a woman’s life, the discussion of this challenging transitional period is often riddled with myths, uncertainties, and trepidation. In Eat to Defeat Menopause: The Essential Nutrition Guide for a Healthy Midlife—with 130 Recipes, Karen Giblin and Mache Seibel, MD, two of the nation’s top menopause experts, break down the most important, need-to-know facts about menopause, offer tips and advice for combating its symptoms, and provide healthy and enticing recipes guaranteed to satisfy every craving (or mood swing). Combining the latest research on menopause, traditions from their Italian and Jewish families, and recipes from chefs across the United States, Giblin and Seibel show that making simple changes to one’s lifestyle can, in many cases, be just as effective as combating menopausal symptoms with the latest drugs and surgeries. Some of these simple changes can include: Eating foods that contain phytoestrogens, such as soy and garlic, to combat hot flashes and insomnia Stabilizing mood swings by eating omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin B Cooking with avocados, chocolate, asparagus, or chile peppers to improve a decreased sex drive Reducing alcohol intake to ward off headaches, hot flashes, insomnia, and mood swings Whether readers are personally experiencing the “change” or just want to arm themselves with information and healthful eating habits for the road ahead, Eat to Defeat Menopause provides an easy and delicious guide for achieving a healthy (and hot-flash-free) midlife.

Patrick O'Donnell: Dog Company: The Boys of Pointe du Hoc Dec 03, 2012

Show notes

It is said that the right man in the right place at the right time can make the difference between victory and defeat. Dog Company: The Boys of Pointe du Hoc--the Rangers Who Accomplished D-Day's Toughest Mission and Led the Way across Europe, is the dramatic story of sixty-eight soldiers of the U.S. Army’s 2nd Ranger Battalion, D Company—Dog Company—who made that difference, time and again. From D-Day, when German guns atop Pointe du Hoc threatened the Allied landings and the men of Dog Company scaled the ninety-foot cliffs to destroy them; to the thickly forested slopes of Hill 400, in Germany’s Hürtgen Forest, where the Rangers launched a desperate bayonet charge across an open field, captured the crucial hill, and held it against all odds. In each battle, the men of Dog Company made the difference. Dog Company is their unforgettable story—thoroughly researched and vividly told by acclaimed combat historian Patrick K. O’Donnell—a story of extraordinary bravery, courage, and determination. America had many heroes in World War II, but few can say that, but for them, the course of the war may have been very different. The right men, in the right place, at the right time—Dog Company. In this segment of “The Organic View”, host, June Stoyer will talk to Patrick O'Donnell who is a military historian and the award-winning author of seven books, including the bestseller and William E. Colby Award winner Beyond Valor, Give Me Tomorrow, and We Were One, the highly acclaimed account of the Battle of Fallujah. He has provided historical consulting for DreamWorks' award-winning miniseries Band of Brothers and for documentaries produced by the BBC, the History Channel, and Fox News.

The NLP View: Using NLP To Battle Austism Dec 02, 2012

Show notes

Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a condition that some people experience. ADHD manifests itself through numerous symptoms which may include one or more of the following: hyperactivity, impulsiveness, distractibility, lack of organisation, forgetfulness and procrastination. ADHD impacts school-aged children and results in restlessness, acting impulsively, and lack of focus which impairs their ability to learn properly. It is the most commonly studied and diagnosed psychiatric disorder in children, affecting about 3 to 5 percent of children globally and diagnosed in about 2 to 16 percent of school-aged children. It is a chronic disorder with 30 to 50 percent of those individuals diagnosed in childhood continuing to have symptoms into adulthood. Adolescents and adults with ADHD tend to develop coping mechanisms to compensate for some or all of their impairments. It is estimated that 4.7 percent of American adults live with ADHD. In most cases children with AD/HD have wonderful, creative minds, minds that they don’t have control of. A common perception of suffers of ADHD is that they either could not control their mind or their minds controlled them. This often becomes a belief about their capabilities, which effects their abilities to learn causing them to lose interest and value in learning. As the child ages they would start to develop beliefs about their own identity about being “weird” or “different”. Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is a way of understanding how we use language to program our brain. NLP helps us understand how we process the information that comes into our brains and how we create a simplified version of our experiences in our minds. Tune in to this segment of The NLP View Radio Show, as host, Donna Blinston talks to Olive Hickmott about how she uses NLP to help people who have learning difficulties.

Stanley Weintraub Discusses FDR's "Final Victory" Nov 30, 2012

Show notes

In the last months of 1943, in the midst of World War II, journalists were already calling for President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s reelection. Unsure of his physical capacity to run for a fourth term, Roosevelt confided to his cousin that he planned to nominate another in place of himself. Yet no other Democrat dared announce his candidacy and the USA needed a formidable leader to see it safely through the war in Europe and the Pacific Rim. In Final Victory, Stanley Weintraub traces FDR’s last presidential campaign—a campaign not unlike the one today, in which domestic concerns and nostalgia for pre-war days dominated the American mindset. For many, another term for Roosevelt would satisfy the need for continuity during trying times. However, the polio-stricken president feared the illness he disguised from the public would render his task impossible. Meanwhile, the Republicans were determined to oust Roosevelt, accusing him of running an ineffectual government and suggesting he should have ceded power after his second term. Even politicians in his own party had their doubts about his ability to lead. As Roosevelt battled heart disease, Democrats suspecting succession to the White House vied for the vice-presidential spot on the ticket, which eventually went to Harry Truman. Weintraub chronicles FDR’s historic bid for a fourth term by piecing together the perspectives of political rivals like Republican opponent Thomas Dewey and the near-insubordinate General Douglas MacArthur, allies like Democratic National Chairman Robert Hannegan and adviser Harry Hopkins, and, of course, the incumbent president himself, bringing to light one man’s struggle against adversity—and dedication to duty—during a crucial period of American history. In this segment of The Organic View, host June Stoyer talks to preeminent historian and award-winning author, Stanley Weintraub.

When Habitats and Highways Collide Nov 29, 2012

Show notes

Roadkill is something that is inevitable in an environment where humans co-exist with wildlife. It is something that people will joke around about but it is something that causes a very large number of accidents and fatalities for both humans and animals. According to Culturechange.org, in the U.S., 190 million motor vehicles hit the road and one million animals get hit by motor vehicles. That's counting cars, buses, motorbikes, and trucks, but not ATVs, snowmobiles and other off-road vehicles. The figure includes mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians, but not insects and bugs.. Many regions of the U.S. suffer from overpopulation of two species of large mammals: deer and humans. No wonder our two paths cross so often, as each year 350,000 deer fatally collide with vehicles. An additional 50,000 collide and survive. Trisha White began Defenders’ Habitat and Highways Campaign in 2000 to address impacts of highways on our nation’s wildlife and to encourage transportation and community planning that incorporates wildlife conservation. Her first report, Second Nature: Improving Transportation Without Putting Nature Second was awarded the 2004 NRCA Award of Achievement for best publication. Trisha is a member of the International Conference on Ecology and Transportation (ICOET) steering committee, a founding member of the TRB Committee on Ecology and Transportation and proud founder of the TransWild Alliance. Prior to Defenders, Trisha spent three years with World Resources Institute's Biological Resources program, and one year as environment policy consultant to USAID's Global Environment Center. In this segment of The Organic View Radio Show, host, June Stoyer will speak to Patricia A. White, Director, Habitat and Highways Program, Defenders of Wildlife (http://www.habitatandhighways.org) To learn more about this problem and how you can raise awareness, stay tuned!

The Neonicotinoid View: What CSBA Is Doing To Protect Bees Nov 28, 2012

Show notes

The Colorado State Beekeepers Association (CSBA) is the oldest and most widely recognized beekeeping organization in Colorado. It was founded in 1880 and incorporated in 1888 as the Colorado State Beekeepers’ Association. It is affiliated with the American Beekeeping Federation. The CSBA functions as an umbrella organization for all other regional beekeeping organizations and clubs in the State. In addition, the CSBA is also the only organization in Colorado that represents the concerns and interests of the commercial beekeeping sector. The CSBA functions as the main interface between State and local agencies and beekeepers. In part, because of the increased use of neonicotinoids which reduces the area for healthy foraging and contributes to the high number of bee losses, the CSBA recently formed 5 committees. They are as follows: Best Practices, Data Collection, Forage, Master Beekeeper and Pesticides. In this special series called “The Neonicotinoid View”, hosts, June Stoyer and Tom Theobald talk to the President of the Colorado State Beekeepers Association (CSBA, Beth Conrey about the history of this organization and the steps it is taking to be proactive in the conservation and protection of honeybees. Stay tuned! Bio: Beth Conrey is the president of the Colorado State Beekeepers Association (CSBA). She was elected president of the CSBA in 2010 and recently was re-elected for another 2 year term.
