Night Shift Might Boost Women's Breast Cancer Risk: Study

MONDAY, May 28 (HealthDay News) -- Women who work the night shift more than twice a week might be increasing their risk for breast cancer, Danish researchers find.

Moreover, the risk appears to be cumulative and highest among women who describe themselves as "morning" people rather than "evening" people, the researchers say.

"About 10 to 20 percent of women in modern societies have night shift work," said lead researcher Johnni Hansen. "It might therefore be one of the largest occupational problems related to cancer."

Right now, the reasons for these findings are uncertain.

"Night shift work involves exposure to light at night, which decreases the production of the night hormone melatonin that seems to protect against certain cancers," said Hansen, of the Institute of Cancer Epidemiology at the Danish Cancer Society, in Copenhagen.

In addition, light at night might introduce circadian disruption, where the master clock in the brain becomes desynchronized from local cellular clocks in different body organs, affecting the breast, he said.

"Repeated phase shifting may lead to defects in the regulation of the circadian cell cycle, thus favoring uncontrolled growth," Hansen said.

Also, sleep deprivation after night shift work leads to the suppression of the immune system, which might increase the growth of cancer cells, he added.

This is not the first time this association has been recognized. In 2007 the International Agency for Research on Cancer, part of the World Health Organization, said that working the night shift is "probably carcinogenic to humans," according to background information in the study.

The new study was published in the May 28 online edition of Occupational and Environmental Medicine.

To determine the effect of night shift work on the risk for breast cancer, Hansen's team collected data on more than 18,500 women who worked for the Danish Army between 1964 and 1999.

The researchers identified 210 women who had breast cancer and compared them to almost 900 similar women who did not have breast cancer.

All of the women were asked about their working patterns, lifestyles and other factors such as their use of contraceptives and hormone replacement therapy, and their sunbathing habits.

In addition, women were asked to classify themselves as "morning" or "evening" people.

In all, 141 women with breast cancer responded to the study questionnaires. In addition, 551 women who did not have breast cancer responded.

Among these women, the risk for breast cancer was increased 40 percent if they worked at night, the researchers found.

But for women who worked nights at least three times a week, and for at least six years, the risk was doubled, the findings showed.

Women who worked the night shift but who described themselves as morning people were at even higher risk of breast cancer. They were almost four times more likely to develop breast cancer as those who didn't work nights, according to the researchers.

In comparison, women who considered themselves evening people were twice as likely to develop breast cancer, they added.

Morning-preferring women who did not work at night had a lower overall risk of breast cancer than evening types, Hansen's team found.

"Since night shift work is unavoidable in modern societies, this type of work should be limited in duration and limited to less than three night shifts per week," Hansen said. "In particular, morning types should limit their night work," he added.

While the study found an association between night shift work and breast cancer, it did not prove a cause-and-effect relationship.

Men who work at night may also be at risk for prostate cancer, Hansen noted. This evidence comes from three small studies, he said.

Dr. Stephanie Bernik, chief of surgical oncology at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City, said that "it's very hard to single out the causes of breast cancer and whether women on the night shift have a higher risk."

But there appears to be some truth to this, she added.

"Stress increases the risk of breast cancer and affects the body as a whole, and working at night can throw off your circadian rhythm and cause stress," Bernik said.

"This is another finding that breast cancer is caused by a multitude of different environmental and genetic influences, so this is probably a piece of the puzzle," she added.

An expert on environmental factors that affect cancer, Richard Stevens, from the department of community medicine at the UConn Health Center in Farmington, Conn., said that "the evidence is growing rapidly about light at night and, specifically, shift work and breast cancer."

"But, this is the first study about the morning/evening preference," he noted.

"If it's true that light at night increases the risk of disease, then there are very practical implications," Stevens said.

If lighting is really an issue in night work, it is known which wavelengths suppress melatonin the most, and lighting could be adjusted to eliminate those wavelengths, he explained.

There are other things people can do to avoid the effects of light at night on health, he added.

"For example, for health in general, if you wake up during the night, stay in the dark; don't turn on the light. If you turn on the lights it will start suppressing melatonin immediately," Stevens said.

"There is a lot more involved than melatonin, but it's a good marker if your circadian rhythm is being changed," he said.

Studies are ongoing on the risk of night work and prostate cancer, Stevens noted.

Moon Brothers post announces Memorial Day parade plans

INDEPENDENCE, KY (FOX19) - The American Legion Moon Brothers Post 275 will sponsor their annual Memorial Day Parade in cooperation with the City of Independence on May 28th, starting at 10:30 a.m.

The parade route will start at Delaware Crossing and go north on KY 17, passing cemeteries at Independence and St. Cecilia Church then end in front of the courthouse in downtown Independence. ?This parade is to celebrate the honor all the service members who have passed away. ?A ceremony will salute the 510 plus Veterans from Northern Kentucky who have passed away just since May 2011, honoring them with prayers, and gun and bugle salutes. ?A post-parade oratory will be presented by Christi Jefferds, Piner Elementary School Principal and US Army Veteran, to end the formal celebration.

Participation in the parade is open. In respect of the purpose of the parade, the post asks that ideas for floats, groups and vehicles reflect that of honor and courtesy to our fallen heroes and their families. ?They also ask participants to keep children?s safety in mind and think twice before throwing candy, and to refrain from campaigning and raffling, instead filling the air with patriotic themes, music and support of our troops.

For additional information on the parade and participation, questions can be sent to American Legion Moon Bros Post Commander Wayne R. Lohmoeller by calling the post at 859-429-0750 or emailing moonbrothers275@gmail.com.

(AP) ? Even though Adam Jones isn't from Baltimore, he's making sure it'll be home for a while longer.

Jones signed a six-year, $85.5 million contract with the Orioles on Sunday, ensuring that the 26-year-old center fielder will be with the team through 2018.

"I fit here in this city. I fit here on this team. I fit in Camden Yards. I don't see myself wearing another white uniform that doesn't have Orioles across the chest," said Jones, a native of San Diego.

"I'm not from Baltimore. This is now my town."

A fan favorite, Jones entered Sunday with a 17-game hitting streak and leads the team in home runs and RBIs.

Vice president of baseball operations Dan Duquette began negotiating a new deal with the 2009 All-Star weeks ago.

Jones' new deal includes a $2 million signing bonus, $8.5 million in 2013, $13 million each in 2014 and 2015, $16 million apiece in 2016 and 2017 and $17 million in 2018. It also includes a no-trade provision.

"The dude rang the cash register every time he hit a home run," Duquette said.

After the Orioles and Jones agreed on a one-year, $6.15 million contract in February, avoiding arbitration, they began exploring an extension.

"We started the process in spring training, and picked up some steam in the last couple of weeks," Duquette said.

Jones has been active in community affairs, something that Duquette referred to several times during Sunday's announcement.

"To have a great team in Baltimore, you have to find and keep players like Adam," Duquette said.

The news conference was attended by a local youth baseball team that Jones sponsors.

"A lot of these kids look up to me, and I am a role model," Jones said.

Jones had one more year before he could have been a free agent, and he acknowledged he decided he wanted to stay in Baltimore some time ago.

"Now, I don't have to worry about trade deadline, free agency," Jones said. "I don't have to worry about any of that, just worry about being a part of the best team in baseball."

The Orioles have suffered through 14 straight losing seasons, and since Jones came to Baltimore in a trade from Seattle in 2008, the team hasn't won even 70 games. Entering Sunday's game with Kansas City, the Orioles lead the AL East with a 29-18 record.

"We have to prove to the fans that we're for real. We're slowing doing it. This is a big step in that right direction," Jones said.

"There's a bigger goal here, I believe, and that's winning games."

Giant telescope to be in South Africa, Australia

PRETORIA, South Africa (AP) ? Australia and South Africa will share hosting of a giant radio telescope made up of thousands of separate dishes and intended to help scientists figure out the make-up of the universe, the international consortium overseeing the project announced Friday.

South Africa led an African consortium that included Botswana, Ghana, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia and Zambia, and telescopes will be erected in all its partners. In South Africa, dishes will be added to a remote site in the arid Karoo desert where a smaller radio telescope project already is under way.

South Africa and Australia, which partnered with New Zealand in bidding for the project, had competed fiercely. South Africa claimed victory Friday, saying it got two of the projects three major components.

"We may feel slightly disappointed that we didn't get the whole thing. But I think one should emphasize that we did get most of it," said Justin Jonas, the chief South African scientist on the project. "Two-thirds of the biggest instrument in the world is still the biggest instrument in the world."

South Africa's science minister Naledi Pandor and scientists who had prepared the country's bid celebrated with an Africa-shaped cake at a news conference in South Africa's capital.

"This marks a real turning point in Africa, where we are becoming a destination for science and engineering, and not just a place where there are resources and tourism opportunities," Jonas added.

Australia also welcomed the split decision.

"It is an outstanding result for the Australia-New Zealand bid after many years of preparation and an intensive international process," said Sen. Chris Evans, Australia's science minister.

The Square Kilometer Array telescope will be 50 times more sensitive and scan the sky 10,000 times faster than any existing telescope. It requires huge open spaces with very few humans.

John Womersley, chair of the consortium's board, said the telescope will help scientists answer key questions: "Where do we come from? Where are we going? What is this universe we live in?"

"We don't understand what 96 percent of our universe is made of," he said.

The organization said dividing construction of the telescope will "maximize on investments already made by both Australia and South Africa."

Womersley said that splitting construction between the two nations will likely add around 10 percent to the ?350 million ($439 million) cost of the first phase of building the giant telescope. But he said there would be a payoff for astronomers.

"It delivers more science in phase one. The capabilities of this instrument are greater than the original design," Womersley said.

All Eyes on Europe, Jobs Report in Coming Week

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Yes, there's a big jobs report waiting next Friday but investors will continue to be on pins and needles about news out of Europe in the coming week.

The major U.S. equity indices managed a positive overall finish last week, snapping a three-week losing streak, but that was really more a product of how poorly equities had already performed in May. For example, as of Friday's close, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has logged only four positive sessions this month. If the blue-chip index can't muster an up day next week, you would have to go back to September 1903 to match that level of ugliness, according to data provided by Dow Jones Indexes. There's a good chance that Friday's mild selloff would have been a lot worse if it wasn't a low-volume lead-in to Memorial Day weekend. The headlines from Europe took a turn late in the day, and for once, Greece wasn't the main problem. Spain stepped up with Bankia --already partially nationalized -- estimating it's going to need nearly $24 billion in bailout funds from the Spanish government. Standard & Poor's did its part as well, downgrading a number of the country's prominent banks because of recessionary concerns. All this comes against the backdrop of the rising talk that Greece exiting the euro is a distinct possibility. Europe's leaders paid a lot of lip service this week to their commitment to keeping the country in single-currency bloc but crossing the line from rhetoric to action hasn't happened yet. "I'm predicting that five years from now, the euro won't exist," said Kevin Mahn, the president of Hennion & Walsh Asset Management. "Greece will be the first to exit and return to the drachma. The intentions behind the euro were good, to try to make a formidable trading bloc with the rest of the world, but it comes to pieces with a crisis in one of the member countries and now they all have to agree on how to bail out that country." The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 85.37 points, or 0.69%, to finish the week at 12,454.83. The S&P 500 increased 22.09 points, or 1.7%, to close at 1,317.82 on Friday. The Nasdaq Composite gained 53.95 points, or 1.94%, to end the week at 2,837.53.

Android A to Z: ClockworkMod Recovery

CWM

We're getting a little hacky in this round of Android A to Z, and we're going to have a look at ClockworkMod recovery -- the de facto standard of custom recoveries for Android. It's open source, based on the stock Android recovery, and brings a ton of options to the table that aren't possible otherwise.

First, let's look at why anyone would use a custom recovery. The standard Android recovery can do two things for the user -- flash system files that have been signed and verified as coming from the correct source (either Google or an OEM), and wipe away user data and cached information. Both these operations are pretty important, but there's more many users want and need from the recovery mode of their phone. Things like backing up all user data into image files that can be restored easily, or flashing software that doesn't come from Google or the OEM -- like custom ROMs -- and wiping some residual data to troubleshoot things like file permission errors. It's pretty advanced stuff, but it's very handy to have it for many of us.

ClockworkMod recovery (we'll call it CWM from here on out) does all this, and does it very well. It's provided free, and has a pretty handy wrapper around it so it can be used while the phone or tablet is up and running. We're talking about Rom Manager, of course. With CWM you can erase the user data from your system completely -- including that extra data that may cause an issue, selectively erase portions of it (a godsend for troubleshooting), create a restore image of the running system, and flash custom firmware at will. If you're running a custom version of Android on any newer phone or tablet, you're probably using it right now. If you're thinking about trying your luck with a custom ROM or tweak, CWM is where you'll get started.

REAL ESTATE: Developer closes escrow on Meridian land ...

Developers have closed escrow on a site in the Meridian business park, and a 600,000 square-foot industrial property will start going up, probably as early as this summer.

LNR Property, the master developer for the Riverside business park that is home to distribution centers for companies that include Kia Motors and Fresh Easy, has closed escrow on a deal with San Francisco-based Newcastle Partners, it was announced earlier this week.

Newcastle Partners will look for a tenant or a buyer who wants to operate along Interstate 215, one of Southern California?s busiest distribution routes.

According to a statement, Newcastle Partners plans an August ground breaking. The company, which runs its Southern California operation from offices in Corona, has also developed similar-sized distribution facilities in Ontario and Fontana.

A distribution center for food supplier Sysco is currently under construction at Meridian, and McLane Food Services and Walgreens are among the other tenants. The Meridian project, on the former March Air force Base property, is 1,290 acres and about 3.3 million square feet have been developed so far.

Representatives of the two developers could not be reached for comment.

Since the start of the recession, there has not been a lot of new construction for large warehouse space in Inland Southern California, but much of the new space that has been added is not occupied right now.

Many of these vacant facilities are in the I-215 corridor, in Riverside, Moreno Valley and Perris, said Bruce Springer, senior vice president for commercial real estate brokerage Lee Associates.

For example, the 692,000 square-foot warehouse on Perris Blvd. and Nandina Avenue in Moreno Valley was competed early this year but has no tenant.

?There are a number of 600,000 or 700,000 square-foot, brand-new, state of the art buildings,? Springer said. ?I?d like to see some of them leased up.?

(AP) ? Couch potatoes everywhere can pause and thank Eugene Polley for hours of feet-up channel surfing. His invention, the first wireless TV remote, began as a luxury, but with the introduction of hundreds of channels and viewing technologies it has become a necessity.

Just ask anyone who's lost a remote.

Polley died of natural causes Sunday at a suburban Chicago hospital, said Zenith Electronics spokesman John Taylor. The former Zenith engineer was 96.

In 1955, if you wanted to switch TV channels from "Arthur Godfrey" to "Father Knows Best," you got up from your chair, walked across the room and turned a knob. Clunk. Clunk. Clunk.

Or you could buy a new Zenith television with Flash-Matic tuning. The TV came with a green ray gun-shaped contraption with a red trigger. The advertising promised "TV miracles." The "flash tuner" was "Absolutely harmless to humans!" Most intriguing of all: "You can even shut off annoying commercials while the picture remains on the screen."

Polley was proud of his invention even late in life, Taylor said. He showed visitors at his assisted-living apartment his original Flash-Matic and how it had evolved into the technology of today. "He was a proud owner of a flat-screen TV and modern remote," Taylor said. "He always kept his original remote control with him."

Polley's Flash-Matic pointed a beam of light at photo cells in the corners of the television screen. Each corner activated a different function, turning the picture and sound off and on, and changing the channels.

Chicago native Polley and fellow Zenith engineer Robert Adler were honored in 1997 with an Emmy for their work in pioneering TV remotes. In 2009, he received the Masaru Ibuka Consumer Electronics Award from the Institute of Electronic and Electrical Engineers.

Beyond keeping TV viewers pinned to their chairs, Polley's invention unchained technology from mechanical knobs and levers, opening vast possibilities, said Richard Doherty, CEO of suburban New York-based technology assessment and market research company Envisioneering.

"Without his idea you might not have gotten to the Internet," Doherty said. "It allowed you to go beyond the physical dial. It set the pace for dozens for follow-on inventions that go beyond the physical."

During his 47-year career as an engineer, Polley earned 18 U.S. patents. At Zenith, he worked his way up from the stockroom, according to a biography from Lincolnshire, Ill.-based LG Electronics, which owns Zenith. Polley also worked on radar advances for the U.S. Department of Defense during World War II. He helped develop the push-button radio for automobiles and the video disk, a forerunner of today's DVD.

Polley's invention made life easier ? perhaps too easy ? for a generation of children.

"In my house, the remote control was named Rick," said Doherty. "'Rick, change it to Channel 7. Rick, change it to Channel 2. Rick, go back to the ballgame.' It kept me fitter as a kid."

Ultimately, yoga gurus lead society towards a healthier, more balanced lifestyle that counters the ill-effects of a sedentary and stressful routine.
