Coronary heart disease (CHD) increases with BMI, as well as with age, finds an article published in BioMed Central's open access journal BMC Medicine. The research from the Million Women Study indicates that increased weight increases risk of CHD equivalent to that caused by getting older.

Researchers from the University of Oxford followed the health of 1.2 million women from England and Scotland for (on average) almost a decade. Analysis of the data showed that the occurrence of CHD increases with BMI so that every 5 unit increase in BMI, calculated as weight/height2, increases incidence by 23%, which is equivalent to the risk conferred by getting older by 2.5 years.

The results showed that one in eleven lean middle aged women (with an average BMI of 21) will be admitted to hospital or will have died from CHD between the ages of 55 to 74. This risk progressively increases with BMI, and it reaches one in six, for obese women (with an average BMI of 34).

Dr Dexter Canoy, who led this study explained, "The risk of developing CHD increases even with small incremental increases in BMI, and this is seen not only in the heaviest but also in women who are not usually considered obese. Small changes in BMI, together with leading a healthy lifestyle by not smoking, avoiding excess alcohol consumption, and being physically active could potentially prevent the occurrence of CHD for a large number of people in the population."

SwiftKey gets in on the April Fools' action with SwiftKey Tilt

SwiftKey Tilt

"Whole-body typing experience"

Not to be left out of the April 1 fun, popular keyboard app SwiftKey has today announced "SwiftKey Tilt," a new keyboard designed to offer a "whole-body typing experience." How's it work? Well, instead of typing with your thumb, simply guide a little pinball across the screen to spell out words. (And in doing so, look just as cool as the people above.)

Video's after the break. SwiftKey says the new tilt keyboard will be available today for those "inquisitive enough to find it." (Try typing "tilt," then long-pressing that word in the suggestion bar.)

Quotes on Phil Ramone from luminaries

NEW YORK (AP) ? Reactions to Phil Ramone's death:

___

"A friend, a musical genius and the most lovable person. It was a thrill for me to have worked with Phil, and I have so many wonderful memories." ? Elton John

___

"I'm so saddened to learn of Phil's passing. We first worked together in 1967 when I did a free concert in Central Park. His brilliance at capturing sound was immediately evident. Later we worked together on the film 'A Star Is Born' where Phil was able to record me singing live, including 'Evergreen.' In the next decade we worked on the soundtrack to 'Yentl' and many other recordings. Phil had impeccable musical taste, great ears and the most gentle way of bringing out the best in all the artists he worked with. The monumental recordings he produced will endure for all time." ? Barbra Streisand

___

"There aren't enough words to express how heavy my heart is with the news of the passing of my dear friend and brother Phil Ramone. From Andy Williams and Lesley Gore, to Billy Eckstine, Paul Simon and all of my albums including 'Soul Bossa Nova' and 'Q's Jook Joint,' Phil was a collaborator in the studio and a friend in life for more than 50 years. Whenever I was in the studio recording, if Phil wasn't there by my side it would seem like one ingredient was missing. Today we lost one of the true musicians, innovators and geniuses of the record industry. His immense talents were only surpassed by the gigantic size of his heart, and I will miss him terribly." ? Quincy Jones

___

"I always thought of Phil Ramone as the most talented guy in my band. He was the guy that no one ever ever saw onstage. He was with me as long as any of the musicians I ever played with ? longer than most. So much of my music was shaped by him and brought to fruition by him. I have lost a dear friend ? and my greatest mentor. The music world lost a giant today." ? Billy Joel

___

What a heartbreak to all of us who knew him and loved him. What a great man, what a kind spirit, such an incredible producer. The star of stars behind the stars. Phil will be missed always. Truly a tragic loss for us on earth but what a wonderful blessing for heaven. As I've always said, 'Love you Phil, God Bless.'" ? Stevie Wonder

___

"Phil Ramone was a lovely person and a very gifted musician and producer. It was a joy to have him work with me in the recording studio on so many projects as he had a wonderful sense of humor and a deep love of music. Phil had the admiration and respect from everyone in the entertainment industry and his passing is a great loss." ? Tony Bennett

___

"Phil was a true gentleman in every sense of the word. It was an honor to know him. He was an angel and I loved him dearly. This is a profound loss for the music world, for all the lives he touched and of course for his family ... Rest in Peace, Phil ... You will be deeply missed and never forgotten." ? Michael Buble

___

As co-founder of A&R Recordings, he was a pioneer of audio technological developments ? creating new innovations for the compact disc and surround sound technologies. His impressive career spanned all genres in which he collaborated with a diverse group of artists including Tony Bennett, Etta James, Paul McCartney, Luciano Pavarotti, Frank Sinatra, Bruce Springsteen and numerous others ... Our industry has lost an immense talent and a true visionary and genius, and The Academy has lost a very dear and close friend." ? Neil Portnow, President/CEO, The Recording Academy

Losing Weight With New American Diet - Eating Plan - AARP

Portrait of Oren Sknner for AARP Magazine. Oren credits cooking at home with his weight loss so far

Oren Skinner, 66, says "I made lots of seafood and chicken breasts. The recipes were all very good." ? Ty Cole

Four months later we checked in with five of our dieters to find out how they were doing. The verdict? All of them had lost weight. Our core group shed a collective 92 pounds. And they're still at it. Here's why they think the diet succeeds.

It's an easy eating plan

Unlike weight-loss programs that require special meals and supplements, this one focuses on foods available in any grocery store: lots of fish, fruits, vegetables, nuts and whole grains. The diet "is all very simple," says Vinod Datta, 68, a former restaurant owner from Glenelg, Maryland, who lost 15 pounds over the course of 16 weeks.

Home cooking is encouraged

Dieters are told to avoid restaurants for the first two weeks ? something that Oren Skinner, 66, of Daniel Island, South Carolina, initially found challenging. But the retired school superintendent pulled out his skillets and stuck to the plan. Within four months he was down by 18 pounds.

The Essentials Of Web Hosting In The 21st Century ? Darkscape, Inc.

file hosting

A company cannot outperform its weakest link, something that is often its web server. If you don't program regularly, then all the jargon used can make things very confusing. When making a decision becomes too complicated, purchasing at random can be the result.

?

Your host will have more domain than you will if you fail to do this.

?

You can maximize the options available to you make off your site by having an efficient web host. Rates vary from two to sixty dollars, and the lower priced options might even be the ones that are better for your specific needs. While more expensive sites give more bandwidth, you still might suffer the same amount of site outages or downtime.

?

Be aware of scammers and hidden fees. Many hosting companies tend to advertise their prices without mentioning the extra fees up front. Find out what a package includes and how much you receive your first bill.

?

Actively participating in online forums dedicated to web hosting provider's outage forum will allow you to remain abreast of service outages and problems. If several hosts experience simultaneous downtime, you know the problem is not isolated to your particular provider, and can take heart knowing that the problem is likely being addressed.

?

If it is important for your site to have multiple emails, talk to a hosting service about the kind of format they utilize for email service. You will usually want POP 3.

?

Think twice if you're thinking of using a free web hosting. The price looks right, but the services may not sufficiently meet your needs. If your site is growing, you could be tied to a free hosts that won't let you grow. Switching to a new web host can be a real hassle, so the free site can cost you a lot in the future.

?

Having a positive reputation is highly valuable to any great web host. Companies that do not do enough for their customers should be identifiable online based on reviews.

?

You should have multiple ways to contact your web host in the event of an urgent technical problem. If they offer things like live chat, email or phone support on a 24 hour basis 7 days a week, then it's reasonable to assume they have a good customer service set up. This saves you many headaches if something bad happens.

?

See how long a potential web host has been established. A good company which has operated longer period of time will generally be able to provide better support. When issues pop up, the company should have the experience needed to deal with it. For the more common problems, there should be standard procedures in effect. This saves you from dealing with the inexperienced customer support that is usually found at newer companies.
