Editor' s Note: This is part of CNN' s & quot; & quot; series.

Join the conversation on Twitter by following and . ( CNN) - - At the dawn of the internet era, the priority was to figure out how to let more people access the world' s information. Today, the question seems to be how to distill oceans of content into manageable streams and discard the rest: the meandering blog posts, the useless status updates, the trivial tweets. The explosion of blogs, Facebook and Twitter have inspired millions to share personal details with the world, a cultural trend that was first officially recognized in 2008 when Webster' s New World Dictionary declared & quot; overshare& quot; the word of the year.

Complaints about friends' tweeting what they had for lunch have practically become a national pastime. And yet, we keep on sharing. Even so, there' s evidence that have led people to be more careful about what they post online and who they choose to share it with. Take reality TV star Miss Tila - - also known as Tila Tequila - - not known for being bashful in her embrace of social media.

Earlier this year she disabled her Twitter account over some nasty user comments and, after a break, that has fewer followers. In several of her recent tweets, she pleaded with fans to respect her privacy. & quot; I' ve learned my lesson, & quot; she told CNN in an interview last week. & quot; Before I put anything up there [ on the internet] , I definitely make sure that it' s, you know, that it' s safe. & quot; Twitter changed the question it poses at the top of every user' s home page last year from & quot; What are you doing? & quot; to & quot; What' s happening? & quot; The old question encouraged mundane answers like what type of coffee someone is sipping on, co- founder Biz Stone said then in a statement. & quot; A lot of the tools that are out there weren' t really designed for a world of endless information, & quot; recently. & quot; How do we become an antidote to information overload, as opposed to yet another service that just bombards people with information? & quot; Google' s official mission statement reads: & quot; to organize the world' s information and make it universally accessible and useful. & quot; But the search giant found itself sprinting to keep up after the explosion of Twitter and is still unable to index most information stored on Facebook because large amounts of data are set to private. In fact, few companies are sufficiently equipped to handle the deluge of data that Web surfers are eager to feed them. Facebook Facebook, in partnership with Microsoft' s Bing, is making strides in letting people search through the mountains of information stored on its servers. The Palo Alto, California, company runs the world' s largest social network, with more than 500 million people.

It launched various features this year to make more information public - - such as the Places section for location sharing and mechanisms for organizing personal activity on other sites. Managing all of this data is surely a challenge for Facebook as a company. But for users, keeping up with all of the status changes, comments and photo albums begging to be & quot; Liked& quot; is impossible. & quot; I get too much Facebook mail and questions, & quot; said Apple co- founder , who helped spark the personal computing revolution. & quot; Social media? I don' t have time. & quot; Every person has a unique thought about where to draw the line on what constitutes oversharing. That' s clear by the groups of Facebook users that inevitably protest whenever the company makes changes to coax people to reveal more of their memories and interests to the Web.

But even Facebook has limits on what you can share. The company doesn' t allow certain types of hate speech, especially relating to religion, nor will it house racy photos. Facebook employs more than a hundred moderators worldwide to crack down on certain types of posts. ' Passive data' Similarly, Chatroulette, which gained notoriety for letting strangers connect for live video chats, is developing technology and policies for on the site.

Many social networks have declared that certain types of information is off limits.

But some are coming to the realization that too much information is simply bad for everyone. started out a year ago as a site for sharing credit card purchases. People were encouraged to sign up for a profile and connect it to their credit card accounts so that receipts would automatically be published as status updates. The idea was that people might be curious about what their friends were buying and how much they paid. But the Palo Alto, California, company has learned that too much info, and making it too easy to post that data, can harm the utility of the service.

So a few months ago Blippy began asking users to approve each item before posting and then write a brief review. & quot; The biggest risk when people publish everything turns out not to be that people publish personal stuff, but that they publish too many uninteresting things, & quot; said Blippy President Philip Kaplan. & quot; The most interesting content on the site was not just that they bought it, but what they thought of it. & quot; The founding philosophy assumed that & quot; if everybody was sharing everything that they buy, & quot; Kaplan said, & quot; the site would move a lot faster. & quot; As it turned out, things moved quickly into the mud. After Blippy' s change, Kaplan says the site is more useful, tracking $ 500, 000 worth of purchases a day. It has mostly cut out what Kaplan calls & quot; passive data& quot; - - that is, the info that' s published automatically, providing no incentive for the user to return to the site. Oversharing on Foursquare The internet is host to countless social networks targeting some very specific topics, and many of them rely on so- called passive data. For music, automatically posts a profile update for each song its users play in a digital jukebox like i.

Tunes. And Apple launched its own social network for music, called Ping, which is a mix of active and passive data; for the latter, it posts a new status each time a user purchases something from the i.

Tunes Store. A million people signed up for Ping in the first two days after it launched. For health junkies, a data- tracking and social service from Fitbit tallies exercise habits using a small gizmo. is a location- based social network - - similar to Facebook Places and Foursquare - - that relies on the active participation of & quot; checking in. & quot; Like Blippy, Gowalla encourages people not to use its service for trivial events.

This distinction is important for Gowalla because CEO Josh Williams says he' s weary of using computer- driven inference to try to determine what it should show users, in the way Google' s search engine and Facebook' s News Feed do. & quot; I think we want to be careful about algorithmically controlling what we display, & quot; Williams said. & quot; I would encourage people to check in to places that are important to them. For us, we' re not going to be the ones to decide what somebody thinks is important. & quot; Foursquare takes a similar approach and displays everything, rather than trying to pick out what' s most important. The service will shame users who check in too often by branding their page with an & quot; Overshare& quot; badge, which is earned after checking in at least 10 times in 12 hours.

More than 391, 000 people have unlocked that badge, a company spokeswoman said. Speaking of oversharing, you can also earn a Foursquare badge called GYT - - short for & quot; Get Yourself Tested& quot; - - when you check in to a clinic and get tested for sexually transmitted diseases; the program is courtesy of MTV. Foursquare says 4, 807 people have earned this badge.

Signal- to- noise ratio As the internet generation has shown, leaving it up to users to determine what should be shared is not always a solution. Then again, silencing oversharers is one & quot; de- friend& quot; button click away on most sites. & quot; You have to worry about the signal- to- noise ratio, & quot; Williams said. , which Apple declared the app of the year for i. Pad, attempts to solve the problem with software that organizes your Twitter and Facebook friends' updates into a magazine- like format. & quot; There' s too much stuff to check& quot; on unfiltered social networks, Flipboard CEO Mike Mc. Cue said at a conference recently. & quot; By the time you get done going through the last social network, you kind of have to go back to the first one. & quot; For narrowing which updates you share to closer circles of friends, there' s Diaspora or Path.

The latter was founded by a former Facebook engineer, but unlike the world' s largest social network, Path limits a user to 50 friends. The social- media juggernaut, Facebook, faces perhaps the biggest challenge in solving the noise problem. More specialized social networks, which encourage in- depth conversation around certain topics, are tying into Facebook. So the library of book reviews you thought were only meant for your page might show up on your Facebook profile. , founded by Kim Muhota several months ago, is among the most peculiar of the themed social- networks.

The service facilitates the sharing and discussion of dreams. & quot; Thousands& quot; of people have signed up, he said, sharing intimate and sometimes sexual nighttime visions. & quot; Why do people care about my status update on Facebook or my tweet? & quot; Muhota asked rhetorically. & quot; I think there' s this innate, human, primal desire to share your experiences with others.

There just is. & quot; As we are learning, however, it may not be in our DNA to want to hear about every one of those experiences.

( CNN) - - As museum curator for the world' s oldest and arguably most prestigious major tennis tournament, Honor Godfrey lives Wimbledon' s rich history every day. Indeed, the 61- year- old helps bring the past back to life in the museum' s interactive tour and collection, which this year highlights the 125th time the grass- court event has been staged. & quot; I love the collecting aspects of the museum and I find the championships really invigorating, & quot; she says. & quot; We try to capture anything which is new or very, very different. Every championships is different and every championships is a challenge. & quot; The items on display include some of the first lawn tennis sets, an unwanted tournament poster from 1893 found in someone' s house, kitsch tennis- related ornaments and parts of the original men' s dressing room.

Fashion from down the ages lights up the collection, from unbelievably impractical early women' s outfits to Ted Tinling' s classic designs and the garments worn by recent champions such as Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer, Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova. & quot; We collect examples of the fashions that are worn every year along with other things, & quot; Godfrey says. & quot; We collect from the queue, we collect from the players, from spectators. & quot; The renowned and lengthy Wimbledon ticket queue, which has been a feature of the tournament for the past century, is the focus of this year' s special display. It gathers anecdotes from spectators who have often stayed up all night in their bid to gain coveted entrance to Centre Court, and also provides evidence - - from the women' s suffrage era, when activists targeted high- profile events - - that sports fans have had their bags searched for many decades. Another highlight is the display commemorating the longest match in tennis history, the 11- hour epic between American John Isner and France' s Nicolas Mahut at Wimbledon last year, spread out across three days. & quot; Mahut came to visit the museum and he took photographs of this showcase, & quot; Godfrey says. & quot; He was carrying his racket and John Isner' s racket, and he was sending the photographs through to John Isner in the States going, ' Where am I? ' & quot; The All- England Club, which hosts Wimbledon, is the home of tennis as we know it. Prior to the club' s introduction of the lawn game in 1875, it had largely been an indoor sport. The advent of the outdoor game was largely due to one man, Victorian entrepreneur Major Walter Wingfield. & quot; He popularized this game enormously.

He produced a boxed set which included a net, poles, rackets, balls for playing the game - - and most importantly you had his rules, & quot; Godfrey says. & quot; He was absolutely terrific at marketing and he sent his game all over the world. He had very good connections with the clergy, the law profession, and the aristocracy and he sent thousands of sets out in the first year or so, in 1874. & quot; The All- England Club started out as a croquet organization, and the first tennis championships there in 1877 helped raise funds to repair the broken pony roller that kept the grass flat at the original Worple Road site in south- west London. & quot; It was open to allcomers but it was a gentleman' s championship, & quot; Godfrey says. & quot; Everybody who entered the championship paid a guinea ( worth about $ 80 now) entrance fee, and the spectators who came to watch the final paid a shilling each ( about $ 4) and they saw Spencer Gore beat William Marshall in the final. & quot; Gore was a cricket fan who believed that outdoor tennis would never catch on.

He lost in the final the following year, but by the time of his death in 1906 tennis had well and truly captured the public' s imagination.

The museum' s 1893 poster shows that women' s and doubles competitions had been added to the Wimbledon schedule, which that year began at 4. 30 every afternoon and went from July 10- 17, closing curiously on a Monday. & quot; There weren' t covers on the courts in those days and they didn' t know what the weather was going to be like, & quot; Godfrey explains. & quot; The great thing about this poster is that it was found scrunched up behind a mirror and somebody sent it into the museum and said, ' Would you like to have it? If you don' t need it, just burn it. ' & quot; In 1922, unable to cope with demand for tickets, the club moved from Worple Road to its existing site in Church Road, a winding walk up and down tree- lined hilly streets from the local train station which may test first- time visitors.

There is a shuttle bus during the championships, which is an easier option. The show court at Worple Road was in the middle of a rectangle of surrounding ones, and its title stuck following the move despite the different layout at the new venue, which took just 10 months to complete. & quot; When we came here Centre Court was still called Centre Court for historical reasons, even though it was right at the north of the site, & quot; Godfrey says. That era of the tournament introduced flamboyant players such as Suzanne Lenglen, a six- time Wimbledon champion who revolutionized what women could wear, and compatriot Jean Borotra - - a two- time winner who was one of France' s & quot; Four Musketeers& quot; of men' s tennis. The museum evokes their grace and style with Art Deco pieces by designers such as Karl Hagenauer and Ferdinand Priess along with film footage of the period - - it' s Godfrey' s favorite exhibit. But that' s closely followed by the fashion showcases that dominate the second half of the museum tour. & quot; When women first started playing lawn tennis they would dress in their best garden party clothes.

You would have corsets and layers of petty coats on underneath - - it would be very hard to play, & quot; Godfrey says. & quot; In fact, somebody said what women were wearing was tight where it should be loose, and loose where it should be tight. & quot; Major Wingfield decided to weigh the clothes worn by his lady opponent in a game and he found that they were 4.

9 kg in weight - - that' s about five large bags of sugar - - as opposed to his clothes, which were about 2. 4 kg. & quot; Tinling was a former tennis player who became Lenglen' s personal umpire before earning renown as a clothes designer. He dressed Wimbledon women' s champions in the 1950s, ' 60s and ' 70s, while the legendary Billie Jean King ensured his legacy endured into a fourth decade when she sported one of his creations in the 1984 mixed doubles final. & quot; What was fantastic about the way he worked was he looked at the whole personality of the player, and he dressed the player to be happy in his creations, & quot; Godfrey says. The tour also features a holographic John Mc.

Enroe, who recalls his first visit to the hallowed men' s locker room as & quot; an 18- year- old punk kid from Queen' s New York who had somehow made it to the semifinals at Wimbledon. & quot; & quot; If you made it in here, you knew you were someone. This is where the contest really began. This is where the adrenalin really started to pump, & quot; the American, who won three Wimbledon titles, intones in his nasal drawl. The tour ends with a sight that any tennis player dreams of - - the Wimbledon winners' trophies. But one of Godfrey' s most cherished items is a little more obscure, harking back to the tennis boom days when memorabilia was found in all shapes and unlikely forms. & quot; When you' re collecting I think it' s absolutely amazing because you don' t know what the boundaries could ever be, & quot; she says. & quot; One of my favorites is a tiny little zip fastener, and running up and down the sides of the zip are tiny gold rackets.

I just think, ' Who on earth made this? ' I would never have thought anyone would have made anything like that. & quot;

Tokyo ( CNN) - - Beneath the cherry blossoms of Shiba Park, more than 2, 000 people lined up for a Sunday afternoon march calling for Japan' s nuclear power stations to be shut down. A week before, a similar protest - - though in a chilly drizzle, not on a warm, sunny day - - drew about 250. And a month of frustration, desperation and anger boiled over at Tokyo Electric Power Company' s headquarters Friday as officials from towns around the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant demanded to know when the crisis that has besieged their farming communities would end. & quot; The nuclear plant situation needs to be resolved as soon as possible. If not, we farmers will die, & quot; one of the officials, Iwao Suzuki, told the utility' s executives. But the response from Naomi Hirose, the managing director of Japan' s largest utility, offered little encouragement to the delegation or the rest of the world. & quot; There is a need to draw an end to the current situation as soon as possible, & quot; Hirose said, adding, & quot; We totally agree to this and are taking the utmost endeavors to contain the radiation. & quot; Since the March 11 earthquake that ravaged northern Japan, workers at Fukushima Daiichi have been struggling to cool down three overheated reactors and keep pools of spent but still potent nuclear fuel from spreading further radioactive contamination across northern Japan.

A month into the crisis, the utility acknowledges, there is no end in sight. The problems are so far & quot; beyond the design capacity& quot; of the plant that the Japanese are working in uncharted territory, said Michael Friedlander, a former senior operator at U. S. nuclear power plants. & quot; No nuclear power plant has ever considered the inability to get on long- term core cooling for more than a week, much less three weeks, & quot; Friedlander said. Some Japanese experts now say the effort is in danger of failing unless Japan seeks more help from international experts to bring it to an end. Tetsunari Iida, an engineer- turned- industry critic, said the situation is & quot; beyond the reach& quot; of Japan' s closely knit nuclear establishment. & quot; A real exit strategy has to start with an inspection by the world' s top experts on nuclear accidents, & quot; Iida told reporters at Japan' s national press club last week.

Engineers and workers so far have managed to stave off a complete meltdown in Fukushima Daiichi' s reactors 1- 3 and in the spent fuel pool of unit 4. But experts say the overheated fuel rods are likely to have suffered extensive damage, and there is a complication for seemingly every advance.

Much of the past week was dominated by the attempt to stop water laced with massive amounts of radioactive particles from pouring into the Pacific Ocean - - water that comes out of the reactors & quot; screaming with radioactivity, & quot; Friedlander said.

Tokyo Electric is now grappling with where to put the stuff, even dumping thousands of tons of less- radioactive water into the Pacific to make room for it in a reservoir for low- level waste. In a normally functioning plant, coolant water is circulated out of the reactors and chilled.

Then it' s pumped back in to carry more heat away from the plant' s fuel rods, which continue producing energy long after the chain reaction at the heart of the units has been stopped. & quot; You have to get the recirculation system up and functioning so they can cool that water in the normal way, & quot; said Gary Was, a nuclear engineering professor at the University of Michigan and a CNN consultant.

Normal cooling systems don' t require the massive amounts of water - - around 7 metric tons ( 1, 850 gallons) per hour - - now being poured into the reactors. & quot; That' s a big problem, & quot; Was said. Tokyo Electric officials told CNN they can' t say when they' ll be able to restore those normal cooling.

The first step is to get highly radioactive water out of the flooded basements of the units' turbine plants, then figure out how badly the equipment inside has been damaged. For the first two weeks of the crisis, engineers pumped seawater into the reactors. But the resulting buildup of salt inside has made it harder for coolant to circulate, U. S. nuclear safety officials advised in March. In addition, Was said, the fuel rods are likely in a state of & quot; partial melt, & quot; the extent of which will be difficult to determine.

After 1979' s Three Mile Island accident in Pennsylvania, it took more than two years before operators were able to get a camera into the reactor to examine its condition, he said.

Satoshi Sato, a Japanese nuclear industry consultant, called the current line of attack a & quot; waste of effort. & quot; Plant instruments are likely damaged and unreliable because of the intense heat that was generated, and pumping more water into the reactors is only making the contamination problem worse, he said. & quot; There is no happy end with their approach, & quot; Sato told CNN. & quot; They must change the approach. That' s something I' m sure of 100 percent. & quot; After the 1986 Chernobyl accident, the world' s worst to date, the Soviet Union encased the plant' s damaged reactor in a massive concrete sarcophagus. Iida said Fukushima Daiichi' s reactors remain too hot to pour concrete, but he suggested pouring a slurry of minerals and sand over them to carry away heat before encasing them.

And Was said the reactors have to be cooled in order to let the molten fuel harden again: & quot; Only when it solidifies are you sure you can contain it. & quot; He said Tokyo Electric should be in the lead - - & quot; It' s their plant& quot; - - but he added, & quot; There' s a lot of different areas in which they could benefit from international help. & quot; Japan' s government is consulting with experts from the U. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the French nuclear fuel company Areva, said Hidehiko Nishiyama, deputy director- general of Japan' s Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency and the agency' s chief spokesman. Navy barges have been carrying fresh water to Fukushima Daiichi, and Tokyo' s foreign ministry has asked Russia about using a Japanese- built ship outfitted as a floating decontamination plant. & quot; We already have quite a bit of support from outside countries and organizations, & quot; Nishiyama said. But he added, & quot; I think the most urgent issue now is support in whatever form possible with regard to how we can dispose of the cooling water and be able to build a sustainable cooling system. & quot; General Electric which designed the reactors, and Hitachi, which built most of the plant, are also advising the government and Tokyo Electric. GE chief Jeffrey Immelt flew to Japan to consult with Japanese officials and executives last week, and Tokyo has asked Russian officials about using a Japanese- built ship outfitted as a floating decontamination plant.

But for now, Japan has & quot; no choice& quot; but to continue pouring water into the reactors, Friedlander said. & quot; I have no doubt that the men and women working at the power plant are indeed going to exert every human effort to make sure that they resolve this, & quot; he said. & quot; What I don' t know and what I can' t tell and the big question mark for me is, will it be done sooner than later? & quot; And again, my hope is, is that it' ll be done sooner.

But in order for it to be done sooner, TEPCO' s going to have to step up and ask for more help from the international community. & quot; Ailing Chang and CNN' s Brian Walker contributed to this report.

I get impatient when I have to wait for someone else or when something takes too long.

I always seem to be in a hurry and racing against the clock. I get irritated when I am interrupted while I am in the middle of something. I stay busy and keep many irons in the fire.

I find myself doing two or three things at one time, such as eating lunch and writing a memo while talking on the phone. I over commit myself by biting off more than I can chew. I feel guilty when I am not working on something. It' s important that I see the concrete results of what I do.

I am more interested in the final result of my work than in the process. Things just never seem to move fast enough or get done fast enough for me. I lose my temper when things don' t go my way or work out to suit me.

I ask the same question over again after I' ve already been given the answer once. I spend a lot of time mentally planning and thinking about future events while tuning out the here and now. I find myself continuing to work after my coworkers have called it quits. I get angry when people don' t meet my standards of perfection. I get upset when I am in situations where I cannot be in control.

I tend to put myself under pressure from self- imposed deadlines when I work. It is hard for me to relax when I' m not working.

I spend more time working than socializing with friends or on hobbies or leisure activities. I dive into projects to get a head start before all the phases have been finalized. I get upset with myself for making even the smallest mistake.

I put more thought, time and energy into my work than I do my relationships with loved ones and friends. I forget, ignore or minimize celebrations such as birthdays, reunions, anniversaries or holidays.

I make important decisions before I have all the facts and have a chance to think them through.

( CNN) - - The wind whistles by like a gentle caress, propelling you forward, as you build up momentum. Legs begin pumping. Scenery is whooshing by, yet you glide down the road as if one with the ground. You and your bicycle are operating in perfect harmony, literally balancing on two wheels.

It' s something most people take for granted: riding a bike. Yet, it' s an activity many learn early in life.

In fact, some would say it' s even a childhood rite of passage in many cultures. & quot; You get a sense of ease of motion, & quot; says Walt Kenzie of Roswell, Georgia, an mateur cyclist who has raced his bike on occasion. & quot; It' s relaxing. It' s very mentally relaxing from the standpoint of you are always experiencing something new, because everything' s changing very quickly, yet you' re still getting a lot of exercise, & quot; he says. And that' s something about cycling that people have loved from the very beginning, when the first European bicycle made its appearance in the United States more than 100 years ago.

In the late 1800s there were nicknames for the bicycle, like & quot; steel horse, & quot; & quot; silent stead, & quot; and & quot; hobby horse. & quot; It also sparked a growing craze. But, for women, the bike symbolized much more than a trendy craze or a favorite pastime. & quot; The bicycle created this opportunity for them to leave, to see the outside world quite literally, & quot; says author Sue Macy, who recently released a new book called & quot; Wheels of Change: How Women Rode the Bicycle to Freedom. & quot; Macy explained most adult women in the late 1800s were pretty much confined to their homes, as young women or wives, unless they were factory workers. They even socialized in their homes, usually in the parlors with their beau. And their parents would sit there and watch them.

Then the bike rolled onto the scene. & quot; It was extraordinary. It affected the way women dressed, women' s sense of themselves, women' s ability to travel beyond the confines of their homes, & quot; Macy told CNN Radio. For one thing, the layers of heavy petticoats and wide crinolines had to go. & quot; When they started riding bicycles it became clear that this wouldn' t work, & quot; Macy says. & quot; The petticoats were getting caught in the spokes. Women were really getting injured just because of the clothing they wore. So quite quickly alternatives to the way they dressed were introduced.

They were no longer wearing such heavy clothing. & quot; Macy said the petticoats gave way to the bloomers, the puffy underpants worn under skirts. Even with the bloomers, though, women weren' t riding for speed or to get somewhere at that time.

Beth Emery is a biking teacher in Connecticut. She' s also a historian on women' s athletics. Emery said women weren' t really riding in the way that biking is thought to today because biking at the time was mostly about being out and being seen. & quot; It was like parading around and part of getting the fresh air and exercise, & quot; says Emery.

She has an extensive collection of turn- of the- century photographs and drawings of cyclists and says, at that time, it wasn' t an activity or a hobby for the masses, at least not yet. & quot; Bicycling was a very middle- class or upper- middle- class activity because to buy a bike was hugely expensive. & quot; But the biking craze caught on.

Macy argues in her book that as biking grew in popularity, it helped advance the the women' s movement.

She points to famous women' s rights advocates of the day, including Susan B. Anthony, who thought the bicycle not only helped change women' s fashion, but how they behaved socially. Macy offered a quote from Anthony, who said, & quot; Let me tell you what I think of bicycling. I think it has done more to emancipate women than anything else in the world. & quot; These days thousands of women routinely hop on their bikes and think nothing of the shorts they' re wearing or the comfortable shoes they' re wearing to pedal.

They' re thinking about other things, like maybe how environmentally friendly biking really is.

Biking fan Lori Kenzie, Walt Kenzie' s wife, explains it this way: & quot; It' s a green thing to do. Our daughter has made us even more aware of how green ( it is) because she is totally into protecting the planet, recycling, ( reducing) the carbon footprint, that kind of thing. She thinks we should all be either riding a bike or using horses instead of cars. & quot; And that would that be a true example of riding full circle. CNN Radio' s Pat St. Claire, Chip Grabow and Susanna Capelouto contributed to this report.

Your dentist or oral surgeon will take a number of steps to ensure proper healing of the socket and to prevent dry socket. You' ll be instructed on steps you can take to prevent the complication. What your dentist or oral surgeon may do Oral antibiotics, particularly for people with compromised immune systems What you can do before surgery Seek a dentist or oral surgeon with experience in tooth extractions. If you take oral contraceptives, schedule your extraction, if possible, during days 23 to 28 of your menstrual cycle, when estrogen levels are lower. Stop smoking and the use of other tobacco products at least 24 hours before tooth extraction surgery.

Consider talking to your doctor or dentist about a program to help you quit permanently. Talk to your dentist or oral surgeon about any prescription or over- the- counter medications or supplements you' re taking, as they may interfere with blood clotting. What you can do after surgery You' ll receive instructions about what to expect during the healing process after a tooth extraction and how to care for the wound. These instructions will likely address the following issues that can help prevent dry socket: Activity. After your surgery, plan to rest for the remainder of the day.

Resume normal activities the next day, but for at least a week, avoid rigorous exercise and sports that might result in dislodging the blood clot in the socket. Beverages. Drink lots of water after the surgery. Don' t drink alcoholic, caffeinated, carbonated or hot beverages in the first 24 hours.

Don' t drink with a straw for at least a week because the sucking action may dislodge the blood clot in the socket. Food.

Eat only soft foods, such as yogurt or applesauce, for the first 24 hours. Start eating semisoft foods when you can tolerate them.

Avoid hard, chewy, hot or spicy foods that might get stuck in the socket or irritate the wound. Cleaning your mouth. Don' t brush your teeth, rinse your mouth, spit or use a mouthwash during the first 24 hours after the surgery. After that time, gently rinse your mouth with warm salt water every two hours while awake and after meals for a week after your surgery. Mix 1/ 2 teaspoon ( 2.

5 milliliters) of table salt in 8 ounces ( 237 milliliters) of water.

After the first 24 hours, resume brushing your teeth, being particularly gentle near the surgical wound. Tobacco use.

If you smoke, don' t do so for at least 24 hours after surgery. If you chew tobacco, don' t use it for at least a week. Any use of tobacco products after oral surgery can delay healing and increase the risk of complications. & copy; 1998- 2011 Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research ( MFMER) .

There are several ways to treat periodontitis, depending on its severity. The goal of periodontitis treatment is to thoroughly clean the pockets of bacteria and to prevent more damage. Treatment may be performed by a periodontist, a dentist or a dental hygienist. Treatment is most successful when you adopt a daily routine of good oral care. Nonsurgical treatments If your periodontitis isn' t advanced, treatment can include less invasive procedures, including: Scaling.

Scaling removes tartar and bacteria from your tooth surfaces and beneath your gums. It may be performed using instruments or an ultrasonic device. Root planing.

Root planing smoothes the root surfaces, discouraging further buildup of tartar. Antibiotics.

The use of antibiotics to treat periodontitis remains open to debate. Your periodontist or dentist may recommend using topical or oral antibiotics to help control bacterial infection. Topical antibiotics are generally the treatment of choice. They can include antibiotic mouth rinses or insertion of threads and gels containing antibiotics in the space between your teeth and gums or into pockets after deep cleaning. However, oral antibiotics may be necessary to completely eliminate infection- causing bacteria.

Surgical treatments If you have advanced periodontitis, your gum tissue may not respond to nonsurgical treatments and good oral hygiene. In that case, your periodontitis treatment may require dental surgery, such as: Flap surgery ( pocket reduction surgery) . In this procedure, your periodontist makes tiny incisions in your gum so that a section of gum tissue can be lifted back, exposing the roots for more effective scaling and planing. Because periodontitis often causes bone loss, the underlying bone may be recontoured before the gum tissue is sutured back in place.

The procedure generally takes from one to three hours and is performed under local anesthesia.

Soft tissue grafts. When you lose gum tissue to periodontal disease, your gumline recedes, making your teeth appear longer than normal. You may need to have damaged tissue replaced.

This is usually done by removing a small amount of tissue from the roof of your mouth ( palate) or another donor source and attaching it to the affected site. This procedure can help reduce further gum recession, cover exposed roots and give your teeth a more cosmetically pleasing appearance. Bone grafting. This procedure is performed when periodontitis has destroyed the bone surrounding your tooth root. The graft may be composed of small fragments of your own bone or the bone may be synthetic or donated.

The bone graft helps prevent tooth loss by holding your tooth in place. It also serves as a platform for the regrowth of natural bone.

Bone grafting may be performed during a technique called guided tissue regeneration. Guided tissue regeneration. This allows the regrowth of bone that was destroyed by bacteria.

In one approach, your dentist places a special piece of biocompatible fabric between existing bone and your tooth.

The material prevents unwanted tissue from entering the healing area, allowing bone to grow back instead. Enamel matrix derivative application. Another technique involves applying a specialized gel to a diseased tooth root. This gel contains the same proteins found in developing tooth enamel and stimulates the growth of healthy bone and tissue. & copy; 1998- 2011 Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research ( MFMER) .

Reprise is a barbershop quartet assembled in 2001 at Brigham Young University.

The singers, Tim Workman ( tenor) , Joel Gillsepie ( lead) , Rex Kocherhans ( baritone) , and Tad Harris ( bass) are alumni of the internationally- renowned BYU Singers. Strangely enough for a barbershop, all are classically trained. The year of the group' s conception ( 2001) , Reprise won the MBNA America Collegiate Barbershop Quartet Contest held in Nashville, Tennessee with their renditions of the barbershop classics & quot; What' ll I Do? & quot; and & quot; Dinah& quot; .

They have since performed with the Saltaires Show Chorus for the 2002 Winter Olympics, as guest performers with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, and others. User- contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By- SA License and may also be available under the GNU FDL.

Pitted to be the UK’ s next big female soloist, Kyla La- Grange has already been compared to a young Marianne Faithful and shot in Glamour magazine.

Bel Trew grabs her between recording sessions. ‘ The first instrument I ever played was probably a kazoo’ , says singer- songwriter Kyla La- Grange.

Recently featured in Glamour magazine as hot new talent, Kyla has just recorded her latest track ‘ Courage’ and thankfully the kazoo is not present. Part South- African and part Zimbabwean, Kyla grew up in London ( mind you there’ s not much Watford in her music) . Her Indie- Folk- Rock- Pop ( it’ s hard to put a label on it) is putting some glorious oomph into the world of female vocalists. Kyla’ s voice is what sets her apart.

It’ s odd. It doesn’ t seep out of your stereo into a syrupy puddle at your eardrum. Her voice has all the gritty, awkward vulnerabilities of a major Folk- singer with a smoky punch of Blues. Her music has drama with intimate starts, large choruses and smashing beats.

Vampire Smile, her first recorded song, surges towards a kind of delicious bacchanalian rally- cry at the end.

Courage, her latest offering, takes a more decisive step towards a vast folk symphony. ‘ We’ re building up these big walls of sound’ explains Kyla, ‘ with thick layered guitar bars and vocal harmonies’ and a mixture of female and male voices. Kyla is also demonstrating the real versatility of her voice. There is definitely something of Elliott Smith in her delivery and Leonard Cohen in her lyrics – both icons of hers. Courage is based on a friend: ‘ It' s about wanting to be brave enough to walk away from someone because you know they don' t love you as much as you love them, ’ before adding, ‘ I' ve never been brave enough to do that and I' m amazed by people who can. ’ Kyla has played at Glastonbury but some her favourite gigs are little acoustic ones ‘ where everyone is so quiet you could hear a pin drop’ . The Flowerpot and the Troubadour in London, she says, are the best places to hear and play music.

Despite doing well, Kyla admits its hard making music: ‘ You can get caught up in that dilemma between writing for yourself and writing for an audience’ .

It’ s also not an industry that promotes self- esteem, something she bizarrely lacks. ‘ But, ’ she jokes ‘ I think it gives me a lot too. Patience.

Callouses on my fingertips. ’ Kyla is irritatingly talented. A Cambridge University Philosophy graduate, she’ s good at sports, astonishingly beautiful and, of course, a bloody good singer.

When I asked her for any more hidden talents, it turns out she can even speak to her dog. So she’ s busy recording her album at the moment in London. ‘ No one has really heard the new stuff yet so it’ s exciting to be at the point where I know these songs are the blueprint for how I want the album to sound. ’ If her previous efforts are anything to go by, the album is set to be gutsy and beautiful. When will it be ready? Soon. Watch this ( my) space.

( CNN) - - As a toddler, Ian Barrier got expelled from day care. & quot; They just said that he was all over the place, he couldn' t handle the structure, they didn' t have the staff or the skills to deal with it, & quot; said his mother, Amy Barr. & quot; They said, ' We think he has or ADHD' and I' m like, ' What is that? & quot; Ian, now 11, and his 9- year- old brother Aidan are just two examples of some 5 million children in the United States who have received the diagnosis of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder ( ADHD) , a condition marked by impulsive behavior and a lack of focus. But although this is a medical condition with medical treatments available, often doctors aren' t the ones suggesting a diagnosis. Many parents begin their struggles with treating their children' s ADHD the way that Barr did: with a suggested diagnosis from a school or day care setting. That' s a problem, doctors say, when there could be many other factors contributing to a child' s behavior. For a teacher to suggest that a child has ADHD is & quot; inappropriate and dangerous, & quot; says Dr.

Elizabeth Roberts, child psychiatrist in Murrieta, California. Depression, anxiety and abuse are all possibilities in a child' s life that could lead to attention problems, Roberts said. That means that many children are receiving medication for the wrong problem. Roberts wants to say to all educators: & quot; There are many, many diagnoses that cause these problems, including abuse and depression and anxiety. So please, withhold your judgment. & quot; But Barr is happy that her son' s day care center mentioned the condition to her.

It explained Ian' s behaviors that she had been excusing with the adage & quot; boys will be boys. & quot; The center also directed her to a facility where he could get tested. & quot; I' m just glad that they brought it up, because I was living in it and didn' t know any better, & quot; she said.

In Barr' s case, having gotten her kids tested for ADHD even before school, the educational system has been supportive. But the question of medication has plagued her, with years of trying different combinations of drugs - - sometimes four or five at a time. Despite medication, Ian pulled the fire alarm at his fourth day care center, dispatching the same fire department that would get him out of a tree at age 9, Barr said. And both brothers have spent time in a psychiatric ward at a children' s hospital;or the younger one, it may have been because of overmedication, Barr said. & quot; You go through all of that, and it' s just various different medications, and then you start to feel guilty: I' m drugging my kid, & quot; said Barr, of Fleming Island, Florida.

Her boys are now both on just one medication - - Vyvanse ( lisdexamfetamine) - - for focusing in school. All too often, parents come to pediatrician Dr. Claudia Gold' s office asking for a prescription for ADHD, based on a recommendation from school. When she consults with parents alone, however, she' s likely to hear stories of trauma: a death in the family, an abusive relationship, and other life experiences that the teacher knew nothing about. & quot; I think that sometimes folks want an immediate answer and they want to help a child as quickly as possible, & quot; said Cheryl Rode, Director of Clinical Operations at the San Diego Center for Children in California. & quot; Medication is quick and easy but it' s not the answer alone for working with kids who have ADHD. & quot; Experts agree that ADHD does exist as a real disorder, and that some children really do benefit from medication. Studies have shown a biological basis to the disorder and a genetic component, suggesting it can be passed down in families.

But it' s not the teacher' s place to make diagnoses, or to recommend medication, Gold said. Teachers and related school personnel have an important role in identifying learning and social challenges faced by students, including those with ADHD, says Clarke Ross, CEO of CHADD ( Children and Adults with Attention Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder) . But teachers should never give a diagnosis for the purpose of medication use, or advise the use of medications, he said. Alana Morales, of Thornton, Colorado, is one of those teachers who has brought up the subject of ADHD testing with many parents.

She doesn' t tell parents to medicate their kids, but brings up the subject of getting children tested because she thinks it' s important for parents to know. & quot; You have to be so careful because, again, we are not doctors, & quot; she said. & quot; But does that mean we don' t recognize it? No. & quot; Not every child with ADHD needs medication, doctors say, and Morales said some students benefit more from counseling, special adjustments in school, a tutor, or a different environment for doing homework. It' s helpful for parents to get informed about the condition and become advocates for their children - - but some may make the situation worse by having a closed mind to interventions and denying that there' s anything wrong, she said. & quot; You' re really setting them up for failure, because it' s not a crime, it doesn' t mean you' re less of a parent if your child learns differently, & quot; she said.

Rode agrees with Roberts that teachers should not recommend medication, but thinks that teachers have an excellent frame of reference for what is typical or normal development. Also the parent of two children with ADHD, Morales has specific strategies she uses when there are kids with ADHD in her class: don' t seat them together, put them on the edges of the classroom so she can see them better, and sometimes modify assignments.

Providing an environment conducive to helping kids with conditions such as this is getting harder as budget- tightening schools cut back on teachers, Morales said. Last year, teaching at a public school in Arizona, Morales had one classroom with 37 students, which included at least four kids with ADHD and one with Asperger' s syndrome. And teachers whose job it is to provide extra help to those kids get responsibility for more students, leaving them with less time for each one. Roberts estimates that only about 10 to 20 percent of children who receive the diagnosis of ADHD actually need medication. While parents like Barr have tried to inform themselves as much as possible about ADHD and treatment options, some doctors say the condition gets misapplied because it is a quick and easy catch- all diagnosis for a variety of behavior problems, with drugs available to treat it.

Parents are also culprits, and bear some responsibility for their children' s behavior, Roberts said. She thinks a lot of kids just need better structure and discipline in the home. & quot; Parents want to leap- frog over the parenting job and get right to the grandparenting, & quot; she said. & quot; Everyone wants to have fun with their kids and everyone wants to be popular with their kids like Grandma is.

But the reality is: Someone has to be the bad guy or the kid never learns. & quot; Morales recommends that parents stay involved in their child' s school lives by helping them with homework, assisting with organizing their papers, and writing notes to teachers so that everyone is on the same page. On behalf of her own two children with ADHD, Morales is writing letters now to their teachers explaining how her kids learn differently and what accommodations have been made in the past ( they are both on medication) . She is also asking the teachers to let her know about any problems this school year.

Looking back, Barr wishes that when her children first got the ADHD diagnosis and then started school, she could have had a teleconference with the school and the psychiatrist at the me time.

Instead, she had to relay what the teachers said about her children' s behavior to the psychiatrist, and then the psychiatrist' s treatment decisions back to the school.

( CNN) - - After almost 3, 000 miles of rowing, bouts of seasickness, equipment failure and salt sores, Paul Ridley is back on land. On day 88, Ridley, 25, completed his solo rowing trip across the Atlantic Ocean, becoming the youngest American ever to do so. & quot; I' m exhausted.

Overwhelmed with all the excitement from my arrival, & quot; Ridley told CNN. & quot; Physically feeling good but will be feeling a lot better when the soreness starts to heal and once that happens I will be back to fundraising because cancer research is still in need of funding, so we still have a lot of work to do. & quot; For nearly three months, Ridley has been rowing up to twelve hours a day on the 2, 950- mile journey to raise awareness and hopefully raise money for cancer research. His organization & quot; Row for Hope& quot; was inspired by the death of his mother from skin cancer in 2001.

He set out from the Canary Islands off the north African coast in his 19- foot boat on January 1; he landed on the Caribbean island of Antigua at 2: 30 p. m. on March 29. & quot; It was incredible, & quot; he said. & quot; The whole Island of Antigua came out to greet me. The harbor was swarming with boats. A big crowd on dry land. It' s really been an amazing reception. & quot; Only 85 people have attempted the nearly 3, 000 miles east- to- west crossing, according to the Ocean Rowing Society International, but most failed. & quot; I' m definitely suffering from exposure to the elements and I' ve lost 20 pounds. This is definitely different from my life at home. & quot; Ridley told CNN this week before hitting land.

Ridley is the youngest - - and only third American - - to complete the voyage by rowing. Dedicating the trip to the memory of his mother, Ridley' s goal was to cross the Atlantic Ocean with only oars and raise $ 500, 000 for research at the Yale Cancer Center.

While he arrived at his destination, he still has to raise $ 400, 000 to meet his goal. After their mother died, Ridley and his sister Joy Ridley created Row for Hope, a fundraising effort in memory of their mother. & quot; I was a rower at Colgate University. I love the sport.

I' m not a scientist, but I can row, & quot; he said. The project has been three years in the making. For two of those, Ridley worked with a rowing coach and nutritionist. Beginning in March 2008, he trained by rowing up to 10 hours a day, every day. He put on an extra 15 pounds, knowing he would lose weight during the crossing.

He and his sister spent $ 60, 000 of their own savings to have his boat custom built, and he took a leave of absence from his financial services job.

There was no support vessel following in his wake, and his food was largely the same freeze- dried variety as astronauts eat in space. Ridley' s sister and fellow fundraisers tracked his progress via GPS navigation devices and kept in touch via a satellite phone. & quot; I have electricity from a solar- powered electrical system which is how I power the computer and also the satellite phone, & quot; he explained. & quot; That keeps me connected back home and is one of the real mental pick- me- ups I have out here. & quot; Out in the , even when he rested his arms, his fingers were busy documenting his adventure on his blog, transmitted over satellite phone. & quot; My hands may be blistered, my seat is sore but I love the journey, & quot; he wrote. The courage to confront and even embrace his discomfort and the danger from winter ocean weather comes from his mother Katherine. & quot; Her fight was courageous but short, & quot; Paul said. & quot; After she was gone I remember wondering how anyone ever moves on from that kind of loss. & quot; But even once on land, this journey is not over. In fact, it' s just the beginning of a bigger expedition. & quot; We' d like to keep Row for Hope alive to support other athletes who want to take on similar adventures for cancer research, & quot; he said. & quot; We' ve learned a lot in the last several years, and we' ve set up the framework for other people to use. Basically, we want to help people use their big dreams to create big change in the fight against cancer. & quot; All About & bull;

( CNN) - - When Dr. Danielle Ofri first read the headlines, she was horrified: Doctors were prescribing placebos to their patients instead of real medicine.

How awful, she thought. How deceptive. But then, as Ofri read on, she thought, & quot; Wait a second. By the definitions of this study, I' ve prescribed placebos. & quot; Ofri, an assistant professor of medicine at New York University Medical School, says when patients complain about being tired, for example, she' ll sometimes suggest they take a multivitamin, even though there' s no proof they work against fatigue. & quot; First, I' ll do the million- dollar workup on the patient, & quot; Ofri says. & quot; I check them out for anemia, diabetes, cancer, asthma, depression, and other sorts of other things.

When I can' t find anything wrong, I' ll explain vitamins have worked for some of my patients, and there' s no downside. I don' t think that' s being deceptive. & quot; Last week' s study on placebos published in the British Medical Journal has sparked debate: What precisely is a placebo, and might you, the patient, actually in some cases benefit from one? Placebos, it turns out, are in the eye of the beholder. Dr. Ezekiel Emmanuel, one of the study authors and director of the department of bioethics at the National Institutes of Health, says it' s unethical for a doctor to suggest a that hasn' t been proven to work.

Other doctors say it' s OK - - and sometimes beneficial - - to prescribe something that hasn' t been shown to work in studies, as long as it' s not harmful. Perhaps, they reason, the treatment - - say a vitamin, or an aspirin - - could have a physiological effect not yet found in studies. Or maybe a treatment will have & quot; a placebo effect, & quot; meaning it will make you feel better just because you have confidence it will make you feel better.

So how would you even know if your doctor' s prescribing you a placebo? And should you take it? & quot; Not all placebos are created equal, & quot; says Dr.

Christiane Northrup.

Below are four placebos that the study found are commonly prescribed, with advice on questions to ask about each of them.

Vitamins Vitamins have several proven purposes. & quot; If you' re a young woman about to become pregnant, it' s important you take folate.

And Vitamin B12 is necessary to prevent certain medical conditions like anemia, & quot; Emanuel says. Beyond a few solid examples like these, some doctors think vitamins might help for certain conditions, such as fatigue, while others think they don' t.

The solution: Ask your doctor if the vitamin has been proven to help your problem.

If it hasn' t, ask her if she has any reason to think it will work ( perhaps, as with Ofri, she' s had anecdotal success among her patients) . Finally, ask if there' s any downside to taking the vitamin, then make your decision. Over- the- counter painkillers You' ve heard of the saying & quot; take two aspirin and call me in the morning& quot; ?

The most commonly prescribed placebo in Emanuel' s study was over- the- counter analgesics, such as aspirin. In Emanuel' s view, these doctors were prescribing aspirin without any reason other than that that it might elicit the & quot; placebo effect. & quot; But Northrup disagrees. & quot; Why would an over- the- counter analgesic be a placebo? Aspirin' s a powerful anti- inflammatory, and inflammation is an important part of many diseases. & quot; The advice here is similar to the advice with vitamins. If your doctor suggests you take aspirin for what ails you, ask if there' s any proof the aspirin will work. Even if there is proof, ask if the pain reliever could harm you in any way.

Antibiotics Everyone agrees there are cases where doctors prescribe antibiotics when they shouldn' t, often because the patient insists on them. In the NIH study, 13 percent of doctors reported using antibiotics as placebos. & quot; Antibiotics for a viral illness may be dangerous, and it' s not a good idea, & quot; Emanuel says. & quot; If your doctor prescribes an antibiotic, ask if you actually have a bacterial infection. & quot; Ofri adds there' s not always a clear answer to that question. & quot; If I had a patient who' s had bronchitis for two weeks, it' s probably because of a virus. But it' s not out of the realm of reasonableness that it could be bacterial, & quot; She says it can tough to detect bacterial infections when someone has bronchitis, so sometimes she' ll prescribe an antibiotic.

Sedatives In the study, 13 percent of doctors also said they' d prescribed a sedative as a placebo. This is the only & quot; placebo& quot; our doctors agreed on: Sedatives can be addictive, and you want to take them only if you have a condition, such as an anxiety disorder, where they' re clearly indicated. & quot; If your doctor prescribes you a sedative, ask them why, and ask if there' s some other treatment, something that' s not addictive, that you could do instead, & quot; Northrup says.

It' s no secret that cold and flu season peaks in winter. And if you' re looking for ways to stay well, one priority, say experts, is simple: Follow a wholesome diet, just as you should any time of year. But that can be a tall order during the busy holiday season, when hectic social schedules and family commitments often interfere with regular meals. Food alone can' t protect against the common cold or influenza, and the science isn' t yet clear on which or how much of some nutrients may help bolster immunity to reduce your risk of getting sick. But experts agree that a rich in a variety of produce, whole grains, lean proteins, and low- fat dairy products - - along with adequate sleep, moderate exercise, and minimal - - contributes to a well- functioning immune system and may promote a faster recovery if you do come down with a cold or flu.

Stay hydrated Water is the largest single constituent of the human body - - contributing to at least half your body weight - - but it' s & quot; also a forgotten nutrient, & quot; says Jennifer K.

Nelson, M. S. , R.

D. , director of clinical dietetics at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.

This essential nutrient ( meaning it' s one the body can' t produce on its own) promotes healthy muscle, bone, and blood. Adequate hydration is even more important once you' re sick because fluids lost through sneezing, watery eyes, and a runny nose need replacing. & quot; When you have a mild fever, your body becomes more dehydrated as a result. So drinking plenty of fluids is probably the first line of defense, & quot; Nelson says. The Institute of Medicine ( IOM) recommends an average 11 cups of fluids daily ( from beverages and foods) for healthy women, while men need about 15.

5 cups per day. Water, coffee, tea, and juice, as well as water- filled foods such as fruit, vegetables, and stews all count toward daily hydration needs.

Choose food While it' s known that certain nutrients like vitamins C, E, and A, as well as the mineral zinc, are associated with immune functions, it' s hard to attribute specific immunity- boosting benefits to any one nutrient because of inconclusive research. & quot; Many studies have been done in nutrition and immune function, involving numerous nutrients - - and [ they] come out with different, often contradicting results, & quot; says Dayong Wu, Ph. D. , a scientist in the Nutritional Immunology Laboratory, the USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging, and assistant professor at the Friedman School of Nutrition and Science Policy at Tufts University. Because a nutritional intervention may have different effects on people of different ages or nutrition status as noted in scientific studies, Wu says, it' s difficult to make broad recommendations based on study findings. & quot; In general, it' s easier to see positive, immune- strengthening results by supplementing someone with a vitamin or mineral that he is deficient in, & quot; he says.

The same benefits may not confer to & quot; people with adequate intake. & quot; That' s why Julia Zumpano, R. D. , of the Cleveland Clinic Department of Preventive Cardiology, recommends foods - - not supplements - - to help you stay strong through the winter. & quot; An overall healthful diet rich in vitamins and minerals is your best bet for the cold weather months, & quot; says Zumpano. & quot; You' ll also benefit from other nutrients not typically found in supplements when you eat a whole food. & quot; She encourages plenty of ( for vitamins C and E) ; whole grains, lean meats, and poultry ( for zinc) ; and low- fat dairy products ( for vitamin A) . For example, in addition to vitamin E, a whole grain like quinoa or rye bread offers fiber, B vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients, which support overall good health. Fruits, vegetables, and seafood may also help you enjoy a healthier winter.

Pumpkin, and other deep- hued orange produce provide beta- carotene, which is converted in the body to vitamin A.

Choose , like grapefruit, oranges, kumquats, tangerines, and clementines as well as canned tomatoes, chiles, or pineapple for vitamin C. Oysters offer zinc.

( CNN) - - After actress Mackenzie Phillips spoke about her sexual relationship with her musician father, online and telephone calls to an anti- sexual assault hot line surged. Her interviews in the past few weeks brought a spotlight to an uncomfortable topic.

Incest, a common but highly stigmatized form of , often leaves the victim ashamed, isolated and unable to tell others what' s happening, because the perpetrator is someone related to him or her, mental health experts said. & quot; For any survivor of sexual trauma, it' s challenging, and it takes a lot of courage to come forward, & quot; said Jennifer Wilson, director of the National Sexual Assault hot line. & quot; With incest survivors, it' s particularly difficult, because not only is there social stigma pressuring them to stay quiet, but also there' s pressure that' s within the family to stay quiet. & quot; The Rape, Abuse & amp; Incest National Network, which calls itself the nation' s largest anti- sexual assault organization, said it had seen an 83 percent increase in activity on its online hot line and a 26 percent increase on its telephone hot line after Phillips' interview with Oprah Winfrey aired last week. & quot; Unfortunately, it' s something we hear everyday in our hot line, so to have somebody speak aloud about it was empowering to a lot of victims and survivors who went through similar situations, & quot; Wilson said. spoke about the taboo nature of incest in her interview with CNN' s Larry King. & quot; There' s very little in this world that is taboo today, but this subject is still, like, shove it under the carpet, sweep it away, protect the abuser, deny the reality. . . . You' re just on your own, & quot; the former child star said. This makes it one of the most under- reported and least discussed crimes, experts said. A U.

Bureau of Justice Statistics report found that of the 60, 000 sexual assault cases reported in 12 states in 2000, about a quarter were perpetrated by family members. About half of the sexual assault cases with victims younger than 11 involved family members.

At times, a victim may feel unable to tell other family members what' s happening. And if he or she tells a relative, that family member may have & quot; a knee- jerk reaction, & quot; refusing to believe it. Relatives may try to protect the offender in order to keep the family together or to avoid the shame and stigma, Wilson said. This takes a devastating toll on a victim. & quot; Their sexual selves are damaged.

Their emotional selves are damaged, because ' who do I trust? ' & quot; said Debra Laino, a sex therapist and counselor. & quot; ' My father did this. My mother did this. Who can I trust if I can' t trust my family? ' & quot; Sometimes the reluctance to report the crime comes from the victim, because he or she doesn' t want to see the family member in jail. Although Phillips called the sexual relationship with her famed father, John Phillips, & quot; wrong, & quot; she said, & quot; I don' t want bad things to happen to him, but I also don' t want bad things to happen to me as a result of this. And I was convinced to let it lie. & quot; Her , a co- founder of the Mamas & amp; the Papas, died in 2001.

Father- or stepfather- daughter incest is the most common form, although it also occurs between mother and child, according to the National Center for Victims of Crime. A sexual assault victim could suffer physical effects of the crime such as sexually transmitted infections, genital trauma and urinary tract infections. They could also experience many mental health effects: social withdrawal, isolation, post- traumatic stress disorder and regressive behavior such as bedwetting and thumb sucking. Some become hypersexual and engage in destructive behaviors, experts said.

Humans & quot; have an instinct for avoiding incest or inbreeding, & quot; said Debra Lieberman, an assistant professor of psychology at the University of Miami ( Florida) who researches incest. But alcohol, drugs and mental illness may disrupt that instinct. & quot; Under the heavy influence of cocaine or heroin or whatever else you' re taking, your mental boundaries are skewed, essentially, & quot; Laino said. The offender' s sexual frustrations could also contribute to inappropriate actions. & quot; It also depends on his other mating opportunities, & quot; Lieberman said. & quot; What is the quality of his current relationship with the female' s mother? Is she around?

What is the ability for the guy to attract other mates? & quot; The perpetrator, frustrated by the absence of suitable sexual partners, may turn to whomever is around - - even if it' s kin. Recovery from incest can occur, but it often takes years. A victim of incest has to understand that it' s not his or her fault and get professional help, Wilson said. & quot; It doesn' t make you broken, & quot; Phillips said. & quot; It doesn' t make it so that you can' t go on and be - - once you deal with honestly and realistically what you' ve been through, it doesn' t mean that you can' t be counted on or you can' t be well enough to be a part of the world. & quot; All About & bull; & bull;
