Your Long Runs Could Be Killing Your Sex Drive

... Dysfunction Getting You Down? There's a Sex Toy for That. “Research by our group and others has shown that men engaged in chronic endurance training are more likely to induce low levels of testosterone, a hormone associated with libido,” says Dr. Anthony Hackney, the study's lead researcher from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. According to the survey results compiled and analyzed by Hackney’s research team, men who racked up more than 10 hours of training per week, and those whose training intensities were self-reported as greater than 70 percent of their VO 2 max , were most likely to be categorized as having a low sex drive. But before you swear off exercise completely (because, who could blame you, really?), the good news is that low to moderate levels of endurance exercise don’t appear to negatively impact sexual health — at least to a noticeable degree. And if you’re more of a strength-focused athlete, you could be completely in the clear. “Strength-trained athletes work very hard, but the nature of their training doesn’t usually result in as large a volume of training dosage,” Hackney ...

Receive your free dealer pricing information by completing your contact information. For proof of America’s insatiable appetite for crossovers, look no further than the current Jeep Compass and Patriot twins. The crossovers made their debuts over 10 years ago, but despite their age both have continued to sell relatively well, having posted year-over-year increases in 2016. That said, the compact crossover segment is full of fancy newcomers, which is why the Patriot will soon be discontinued and the Compass will be replaced with a second-generation 2017 Jeep Compass aimed at taking a larger share of pie from competitors.

Buffett's Deputies Drive Bets On Apple And Airlines

... CEO. “He’s been very intelligent about capital deployment.”. Not so long ago Apple was looking like its star was fading. The company last year reported its. first annual sales decline in more than a decade as i Phone updates failed to attract enough new buyers. Cook’s response was to push more services, such as Apple Music, the App Store and i Cloud. These businesses are more profitable than i Phones and i Pads, and they increase the chances customers will buy future Apple gadgets because users’ apps and data are tightly woven into the company’s operating systems. Buffett said Berkshire’s Apple purchases this year were completed before the i Phone maker reported quarterly results on Jan. 31. The stock surged after the earnings report. “It did jump, and that’s why we quit buying,” Buffett said. “We would have probably bought more.”. Hiring Combs in 2010 and Weschler in 2011 was a cornerstone of Buffett’s succession plan. The former hedge-fund managers each oversee more than. $10 billion , Buffett wrote in his annual letter, which was posted online Saturday. ...

Uber’s Self-driving Cars Ran Through 6 Stoplights In California, Ny Times Says

... on the California DMV’s list of companies approved to test self-driving cars. Documents obtained by The Verge through a public records request also showed that the California DMV had warned Uber for months prior to the launch of its pilot program that it would need an autonomous testing permit to drive on California’s roads. Uber maintained that it didn’t need a permit to test its vehicles as they are not truly autonomous cars but simply cars with Advanced Driver Assist Systems (ADAS), which do not require a permit to drive in California. The California DMV countered that the vehicles were, in fact, autonomous under DMV standards, and the department ended up revoking registrations  for Uber’s autonomous cars. Uber announced that it would stop its pilot program in San Francisco and take the program to Arizona. If Uber had obtained an autonomous testing license under California's guidelines, the company would have had to ...

I started a small theatrical team, selected the children, wrote small plays with a message, and we perform in a small garden Saturday or ...
