Learning as much as you can about stocks will help you to succeed. Before selecting a particular stock, educate yourself on the companys historical trends and their past and current reputation. Keep reading to learn some helpful tips for earning a profit from your investments.

You should never let greed overtake your better judgement with investments in the stock market. Greed and unrealistic expectations are the main cause of losing money in the stock market. To prevent this from happening to you be sure to pull out at a reasonable and predetermined time.

Make sure you are comfortable with the stocks and mutual funds you purchase. Understand your temperament when investing. If you could not live with the thought of you losing money, you could invest in mutual funds or in conservative stocks. Another thing you could do is to keep your cash in cash vehicles. If you can handle some elements of risk, you can invest in stocks which have larger fluctuations in their price.

A broker who works with both in-person and online purchases is a good choice if you want to have the advice of a full-service broker, but would also like to do your own purchasing decisions. Working with such a broker lets you split your total investment into whatever proportion you like, handle part of it yourself, and turn the rest over to your broker. This method allows you to have control and great assistance when you invest.

The general rule of thumb for novice stock traders is they should begin with only a cash account and not trade on margin. A cash account alleviates some of the risk because there is a limit to the amount of money you could possibly lose.

Start with a small investment in a single stock. You dont want to invest all your money at once. Once you see a stock is profitable, you can then invest some more. If you invest too much money at once, you will have an increased chance of losing out on money.

Consider the information and publications you rely on when evaluating a companys stock. You can learn a lot from your intuition. After judging a companys financial balance sheet, consider whether you would buy what the particular company offers. It might not be a good investment for you if you wouldnt use the product. At least youll know whether or not you can accurately judge a company.

Always adopt a realistic approach to trading. You are likely to be very disappointed if your expectations are to have double-digit returns each year. The lower and more reasonable your goals are, the better your chances are of achieving those goals.

Opening a Roth IRA is a great investment for residents of the USA. But remember that it needs to be well funded. Middle income workers are almost always able to qualify. This kind of investment strategy offers many benefits in the form of tax breaks and can yield substantial income of a number of years.

When investing in the stock market, it is important to remain patient and well informed. Investing does not require an advanced economics degree, but those that do not stay informed are at a serious disadvantage. Keep the tips from this article in mind so you can begin to make money today.

Lindsay Lohan Completes Probation

Judge tells troubled actress, 'Stop nightclubbing and focus on your work.'
By Gil Kaufman

Lindsay Lohan got some good news on Thursday when she appeared in Los Angeles Superior Court and a judge formally ended her lengthy supervised probation from two 2007 DUI arrests. Wearing a Powder-blue pantsuit, the troubled actress earned praise for completing her court-mandated counseling sessions and 480 hours of community service.

According to the Los Angeles Times, at the final probation status check-in for Lohan in connection with a shoplifting conviction and probation violations from the 2007 arrests, Judge Stephanie Sautner said Lohan had finished her obligations for counseling and community service in "short of a year and she has done everything this court asked her to do."

The actress completed the final counseling sessions and community service work at the Los Angeles County morgue earlier this week. Sautner then announced that the five years of probation for the DUI case were officially over and that she was putting Lohan on unsupervised probation for the shoplifting incident until May 2014.

"The only terms for you are for you to obey all laws," Sautner said. "You don't need to come to court anymore."

In addition to countless court appearances, Lohan has been jailed several times
 for violations stemming from drug use to failing to do her required community service.

Clearly pleased, Lohan, 25, told the judge, "I just wanted to thank you for being fair. What you've done has really opened a lot of doors for me."

Lohan has been working on getting her career back on track, recently appearing in an episode of "Saturday Night Live",
 booking a "Glee" gig
 and signing up to play Elizabeth Taylor
 in a TV movie.

But, before the hearing ended, Sautner had one more piece of advice for Lohan. "Stop nightclubbing and focus on your work," she counseled.

Apollo 11 rocket engines may be dredged from the sea

Lisa Grossman, reporter

(Image: NASA)

James Cameron would love this. A couple of weeks before the centenary of the Titanic's sinking, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos announced the discovery of another set of historic relics at the bottom of the ocean: the engines that launched the Apollo 11 spacecraft towards the moon.

A private expedition financed by Bezos used state-of-the-art sonar to spot the five F-1 engines (shown in the forefront of the image above) at a depth of 4.3 kilometres below the surface of the Atlantic.

He will try to bring at least one of them back up to the surface. After more than 40 years under water, no one knows what sort of condition the engines are in. "On the other hand, they're made of tough stuff, so we'll see," Bezos writes on his website.

Despite their long submarine rest, the engines are still NASA property. He expects that the first engine to resurface will go on display at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum in Washington DC, alongside the Apollo Lunar Module and the space shuttle Discovery. If the team can recover another one, Bezos has asked NASA to donate it to the Museum of Flight in Seattle, Washington (where Amazon is based).

Bezos hopes the recovered engines will help inspire the next generation of space explorers. "I was five years old when I watched Apollo 11 unfold on television, and without any doubt it was a big contributor to my passions for science, engineering, and exploration," he writes. "With this endeavor, maybe we can inspire a few more youth to invent and explore."

It may seem a little backwards to inspire the future by literally dredging up the past. But Bezos is investing in future space flight more directly, too. His private space flight company Blue Origin is working on a vehicle called New Shepard to carry people and equipment on suborbital missions, and he has his sights set on getting into orbit as well.

Newsies The Musical Reviews | The Disney Blog

A couple of big reviews are in for Newsies The Musical, the Broadway edition. While the crowds may be entertained by the dancing, often to the point of giving multiple standing ovations each night, the critics have less kind about the finer points of the story going as far to call it a collection of tropes from previous musicals.

I?m not sure that?s fair, but it?s a complaint I?ve seen leveled at a lot of musicals recently, so I?m not sure it?s a complaint about Newsies, so much as it is about a general lack of originality on Broadway at the moment.

Ben Brantley in the NY Times says:

Though there is little originality in these dance numbers, they have enough raw vitality to command the attention and even stir the blood. Or they would if they knew when to quit. But just when you think a number is over, it starts up again, and no sooner are you recovering from that one, then there?s another one, with all the same darn back flips, pirouettes, etc. I commend the cast members for always appearing to be excited by what they?re doing. Unfortunately, that is not the same as being exciting.

Jeremy Gerard at Bloomberg can only bring himself to say this (my paragraphing):

?Newsies? gets syrupy faster than I hoped for and while never less than assured, its efforts to earn applause can come mighty close to pandering. Fierstein is a sentimentalist at heart, and the hokiness gets free reign. The songs feel stamped from molds, the music predictable and the words banal.

The Hollywood Reporter, on the other hand, has more praise for Disney?s ability to tap into current trends with an old property:

If this sounds like a rose-colored Occupy Wall Street fantasy, it more or less is, which is no small irony coming from the biggest corporate presence on Broadway. However, Fierstein?s straightforward book is concerned less with tapping into today?s debate about income inequality and worker injustice than with joining the dots of a classic boy-meets-girl-and-tackles-titan tale. Chief among many improvements on the movie is its strengthening of the love story.

Critics do what they are paid to do, critique. You can choose to take it or leave it. Either way, the audience doesn?t mind as the initial run out performed expectations and Disney has added more shows that are already filling up way ahead of time. There?s something to be said about being the hottest ticket on the great white way.

Finding a Real Estate Agent You Can Work With - Curbed University ...

Curbed University delivers insider tips and non-boring advice on how to buy, sell, or rent a house or apartment. Additional questions welcomed to la@curbed.com.

A-Hunting You Will Go
Unless you happen to looking for something that's next to a freeway interchange and directly below a 747's flight path, the Los Angeles housing market can be ridiculously competitive. Today's prospective buyers have an unprecedented array of resources at their disposal. Just a few short years ago, it was difficult, if not impossible, for anyone other than a broker to obtain useful information such as a property's sales history, price reductions, and neighborhood comps. But nowadays, all that data is readily available--along with the latest listings--to anyone with a laptop or smartphone. While Redfin, Zillow, Trulia, and other real estate websites are undeniably a major boon for the consumer, their widespread use means the days when it was actually possible to get a jump on a listing by showing up the earliest are over. (We do have one tip: think smaller. Los Angeles is home to several boutique agencies that specialize in specific architecture styles, such as Valley Modern and Architecture for Sale, that don't always list their properties in the usual forums.

Choosing an Agent
For the record, there's no rule that says homebuyers MUST work with an agent or broker--some buyers prefer to handle their transactions themselves, or enlist the services of a real estate attorney. But this independent approach is likely to be a tad too ambitious for the virgin buyer (not to mention the scope of this guide), so an agent or broker it is!

Given that LA has approximately eleventy billion agents, give or take a few, picking the one that's right for you can be rather daunting. But if you've ever had to find a new hairstylist or dentist, you know how it works--ask friends for recommendations, go on Yelp, et cetera. If you're partial to a particular style of architecture, look up a few past sales of this style of home and see who represented the buyer and seller.

Rare is the agent nowadays who doesn't blog, Twitter, or actively participate in some other form of social media--these pages can provide a golden opportunity to gauge a potential fit without having to actually engage.

What To Expect From Your Agent
Your agent should arrange home tours for you and accompany you on them, perform comparative market analysis, advise you on prices should you want to make an offer, put the offer together, negotiate with the seller's agent, schedule inspections, and oversee the close of the sale and contingencies. Typically in California, the agent's commission rate is about 5% of the sale price, but this is sometimes negotiable. Commission is split between the seller's and the buyer's agents if both sides are represented.

A good agent will make note of all the particular features you would like your home to have (hardwood floors! A fireplace! Two bathrooms! Wainscoting!), and know which ones are non-negotiable musts and which ones you'd be willing to compromise on. He or she should be familiar with and knowledgeable about the neighborhoods you are looking in, and will compare notes with other agents frequently to see if any interesting properties are coming on the market.

A good agent will NOT make you waste your time touring homes that are out of your price range, or desired area, or otherwise do not meet your stated criteria. This is crucial, because you will assuredly be wasting countless hours in your quest for a home already. Much of this time will be squandered looking at houses that are ugly, depressing, cheaply remodeled, and outrageously overpriced. But hopefully one day, the planets will align, and you come across a place that just might be The One.

Verizon LG Lucid now available

Right on cue, Verizon Wireless has today launched the Lucid, a mid-range 4G LTE smartphone from LG. The Lucid packs a 1.2GHz dual-core CPU with 1GB of RAM, a 4-inch IPS screen and a 5MP rear camera. On the software side, there's Android 2.3 Gingerbread with LG's Optimus UI, and the promise of a future upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich in the future. It's nothing too fancy, but for $79 on a 2 year contract (after a $50 mail-in rebate), you wouldn't expect a bleeding-edge device.

We'll have a full review of the LG Lucid in the next week, so stay tuned.

Tired of going to Google Maps on your phone when you're driving and hoping you can make it far enough without having to look at your screen? Don't like the idea of using an expensive, dedicated GPS smartphone app? GPS software maker Telenav may have the answer to your prayers with Scout for Apps.

Msnbc.com's Wilson Rothman wrote about this program when it was in development a few months ago, and Wednesday it became available to developers -- and to consumers -- to try.?

I headed over to Scout.me, and used the Web-based program to find directions from where I live to a deli in a nearby community. Then, I simply asked it to send the directions to my iPhone. Within seconds, I received a text message with a link to spoken-word turn-by-turn directions -- on my phone's Web browser. There was the standard nav voice most of us are used to hearing, reading the directions I asked for, along with a route map, with no particular app required.

Right now, Scout for Apps is only out for Apple's iOS platform, but an Android version will be available later this year, Telenav says.

You may be wondering why a navigator that doesn't require an app has "for Apps" in its name. "Scout for Apps is the first HTML5, browser-based, voice-guided turn-by-turn GPS navigation service for mobile phones," Telenav said in a news release.

"Developers can integrate the service by simply adding one line of code, making it ideal for social, travel and shopping apps, or any other app or website that includes points of interest, places or addresses."

The Yellow Pages app, made by Avantar, was one of the first testers of Scout for Apps, and Wednesday released an update incorporating it into its free program.

"Previously, when users clicked on an address in our Yellow Pages app, we provided a standard map experience to help users get to their desired destinations," said Adrian Ochoa, Avantar CEO in the Telenav release. "Now with Scout for Apps, our customers will receive full-blown turn-by-turn, voice-guided directions, and they will never have to leave our app to get those directions and guidance."

For us, the beauty of it is seeing how any location-aware Internet-connected device can suddenly give you turn-by-turn directions, without too much specialized software. There's no reason why, in the near future, every map will come with a moving, realtime "You are here" indicator, and along with a friendly voice to guide you elsewhere.

To learn more, here's Telenav's video about Scout for Apps for developers:

Spiders in Borneo: Falling from above

In a previous post I told how we use a beating sheet ? a sheet stretched with tent poles to catch spiders that fall from vegetation we?ve shaken or beaten. Whenever I do this, more falls onto the sheet than just spiders. Insects, centipedes, earthworms, crabs, onychophorans, dead leaves, and sticks are among the other things that land on the sheet. Earthworms? Yes, there is often soil and litter that accumulates between branches. Crabs? Yes, a terrestrial crab fell on my sheet a few days ago.

The most memorable things landing on my sheets over the years in various tropical places are these:

A poison arrow frog, Dendrobates. Very cute, but I did not encourage it to linger on my sheet.

A poisonous viper, Bothrops. See the story on the Beaty Museum?s blog.

Ant colonies. This happens several times a day. There are many tropical ants that make their nests in trees, and when the tree is shaken, the whole colony lands on the sheet. Or, half on the sheet and half on my head. Then I start counting 1, 2, 3, .. By 10, I?ve usually felt the first bite or sting. Of many.

Wasp nest. The rule: drop the beating sheet and run the other direction. Then, hope you can return in 10 minutes to retrieve the sheet.

And the new addition to this list from Mulu: a bat. The other day I beat a plant and saw this tightly bundled bat on my sheet. I called over Edy and Alex, who took this photo. Right after the photo, the bat turned over and flew away, perhaps in shock, but apparently unharmed:

10 More Embarrassing Video Gaming Moments

by Evilgidgit

In a previous list, I took a look at ten cringe-worthy moments in the video gaming industry. This list continues searching for more humiliating moments from the history of video games, although some are based more around the impact they have made on the gaming industry and all those involved.

Every year at E3 has some weird and wacky moments, but 2010?s event really took the cake. From Microsoft?s conference promoting the Kinect (notably the terrifying tiger from Kinectimals) to Ubisoft?s conference being ?crashed? by people firing invisible lasers at each other, 2010 was a very awkward and weird year. But the winner was Konami?s conference. The conference can be best described as odd. Konami?s highlights included countless technical faults, some bizarre hosts, Glee popping in for a musical number, a bunch of Mexican wrestlers fighting onstage, one of Silent Hill Downpour?s representatives trying to glare a hole into the back of his associate?s head, and some awkward introductions to new Konami games including Ninety-Nine Nights II Ramble. Needless to say, Konami might want to rethink their onstage shenanigans for their next E3 conference.

Advertised extensively in the movie The Wizard, the Power Glove was implied to be a revolutionary video game gizmo, able to recreate the movements of the user?s hands on a television in real time. However, the Power Glove didn?t appear to be all that impressive. It was criticized for its difficult-to-use controls, and ultimately became one of the console devices that failed to live up to its marketing promises. But the Power Glove has become an icon among the video game community, as a symbol of the NES, and there is even a speed metal band named after it.

Video Game Movies and Uwe Boll

Super Mario Bros, Double Dragon, Mortal Kombat, Mortal Kombat Annihilation, Street Fighter, Alone in the Dark, Doom, BloodRayne. The list could go on. Movies based on popular video games have never really done well in the box office. The continuing problem seems to be that the movies in question barely resemble the games they are based upon, not to mention most are pretty shoddy-looking films. There are some exceptions, such as the Professor Layton film, and Silent Hill was better praised for its production design rather than its plot. The biggest contributor to this failing genre is Uwe Boll, considered one of the worst filmmakers ever. His butchering of BloodRayne, Alone in the Dark and House of the Dead has made him a hated figure in the eyes of gamers, but Boll does not seem to care and challenges his critics to boxing matches. Hopefully, video game movies will get better sooner or later, but not with people like Boll directing them.

The CD-i was created by Philips and one of the first game consoles which played CDs. However, the console was an abysmal failure, most notably for its crude attempts at making Mario and The Legend of Zelda games. Link: The Faces of Evil, Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon, Zelda?s Adventure and Hotel Mario are among some of the worst games ever created. While the gameplay was bad, it was the fully animated cutscenes that made the games stand out. These games are now used commonly in YouTube Poop?s with their cutscenes used to hilarious measures. Quotes like ?Check out the enclosed instruction book? and ?All toasters toast toast? will likely be the highlight of the CD-i?s legacy.

How are you gentlemen? All your base are belong to us. That is pretty much what the game Zero Wing is famous for. Considered one of the worst games ever, Zero Wing is infamous for its poorly translated English dialogue, and the above quote has become a popular internet meme similar to the fate of the CD-i.

John Romero?s Daikatana

John Romero is a notable figure in the first person shooter genre, developing several classics like Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, and Quake. But then he got the idea of Daikatana, a first person shooter game involving a magic time traveling sword and a fight to keep the player?s two sidekicks alive without dying. Taking four years to complete, Daikatana?s production process was a bumpy ride. Halfway through the process, Romero realized the designers were behind in the latest technology and switched to a better game engine, leading to eleven months worth of work being discarded. The advertising process was just as painful, with a large red poster promoting Romero?s infamous trash talking. Romero also received extended focus in Time magazine during the game?s development. After numerous setbacks, altered release dates, and the advertising, Daikatana bombed upon release and joined the ranks of dreadful games.

Duke Nukem Forever is on this list for having one of the longest periods of development hell ever ? fifteen years worth of it. The game was announced in 1997, switched game engines in 1998, everything got scrapped around 2001-2002, new teasers popped up in 2006, and the entire game?s development team got fired in 2009. And those are just some of the problems that the game and its developers faced. The game was eventually released in 2011, but was met with mixed reviews and a fan base who got fed up of waiting years ago.

Xbox 360 Red Ring of Death

While the Wii and Playstation 3 had their issues, the Xbox 360 has the biggest out of the consoles. Since its release, the 360 suffered from internal errors. The now infamously named ?Red Ring of Death? on the front of the console flashed red whenever an internal problem occurred, requiring the owners to get the consoles fixed. These major errors included freeze-ups, graphical problems, sound problems, and game discs being scratched inside the console. The Xbox 360?s failure rating grew quickly, eventually gaining the estimate of 54.2% failures. While the console was a financial success, its errors have made it the faultiest of the current game consoles. And the worst part is that Microsoft originally announced a three-year warranty to deal with the damaged consoles, only to release a slimmer version of the console which only has a one-year warranty if it develops problems similar to those of the original.

One of the darker elements of video games is that they can become very addictive and may lead to trouble. Some of extreme cases often end up in the news and only help fuel the fire for those who consider all or most video games to be bad for children and adults. Game addictions can lead to theft, violence, serious psychological damage, and tragic scenarios like murder and suicide. The culprits of the Columbine and Virginia Tech massacres have been said to have game addictions. I recommend reading the ?Top 10 Cases of Extreme Game Addiction? for individual cases.

The Death of Gunpei Yokoi

This entry is not an embarrassing entry, but more of a tragic one. Gunpei Yokoi was one of the most iconic and influential figures in video games, he helped develop the Game & Watch collection, ROB, Donkey Kong, Mario Bros., Kid Icarus, Fire Emblem, Metroid and made the successful Game Boy. His only real failure in life was the Virtual Boy. Yokoi eventually left Nintendo after thirty years in the company. However, in 1997, Yokoi was involved in a car accident. While getting out to inspect the damage he had done to a truck, Yokoi was struck by a passing car and died shortly after. His sudden death shocked gamers, and he has been honored as one of the greats in video gaming.

Kate Middleton delivers first speech, but media focus on blue dress (+video)

Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, gave her first public speech at the Treehouse charity. But her sartorial selection was as big a story in Britain as her delivery.?

Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, made her first public speech as a royal Monday in Ipswich at the opening of a facility called the Treehouse, part of East Anglia?s Children?s Hospices.

Skip to next paragraph

The hospice is one of several British charities or non profit groups, including the Scouts and the National Gallery, that the Dutchess has identified as the focus of her attention. ?

British media praised her speech Monday, for which the Duchess used notes but which she delivered slowly and clearly.?

??The Duchess of Cambridge looked calm and confident as she gave her first public address today,? Daily Mail writer Rebecca English wrote. ?Kate[?s] three-minute speech was faultless -? made with a slow but measured delivery.?

?The Telegraph noted that the Duchess ?appear[ed] understandably nervous at first,? but that she ?delivered her maiden speech slowly and carefully, sticking precisely to her script, without any ad-libs.?

It was reported that she?penned the speech herself.?

The speech made headlines in some British newspapers, including the Daily Mail and the Telegraph, for the dress the Duchess wore to the event, which reporters noted is one she bought in 2008 and appeared to be the same one worn by her mother in 2010 when Carole Middleton went to Ascot. The British media has been fascinated by Kate Middleton's, and her sister Pippa's, fashion choices.?

?During the Duchess?s speech, she said she regretted the absence of her husband, Prince William, who is finishing military training in the Falkland Islands.

??What you have all achieved here is extraordinary," the Duchess said during her speech. "You as a community have built the Treehouse -- a group of people who have made every effort to support and help each other.?

?She noted the support the Treehouse and other East Anglia Children?s Hospices (EACH) facilities offer for families.

??For many this is a home from home?- a?lifeline?enabling families to live as normally as possible during a very precious?period of?time,? the Duchess said.

The Duchess is the royal patron of the Hospices, which helps families with children who have a life-endangering sickness. The organization provides therapy for the children, support for parents and family members and other services, offered at their centers or in the family?s home. The Treehouse will be the service center for Suffolk and Essex.

During her visit, she received a tour of the building and met children and their families who receive services from EACH, including 10-year-old Bethany Woods, who has been diagnosed with muscular dystrophy. Woods performed the song ?Rainbow Connection? for the Duchess, who congratulated Woods after her rendition, according to the Daily Mail.

?A reception was held for EACH staff members and those who have supported the organization. According to the Daily Mail, the Duchess told another person attending the reception, ?I find doing speeches nerve-wracking.?

?She also planted a tree at the facility in commemoration of her visit.

The Duchess has been the royal patron of EACH since January and is also a supporter of the Scouts organization, planning to attend camps with the Girl Scout troops in north Wales and London and assist with games. The royal family has traditionally been a supporter of the Scouts, and Queen Elizabeth serves as the association?s current president. The Duke of Kent, the queen?s cousin, is its patron.

?The Duchess also serves as a patron for the National Gallery, the organization Action Through Addiction, which helps those with a drug addiction and their loved ones, and the Art Room, a charity which attempts to help children?s self-image through art.

Belfast: reluctant birthplace of the Titanic

The city tried to ignore the Titanic until recently because of guilt over its loss, but is now celebrating the shipbuilding genius of Belfast workers at the new Belfast Titanic museum.

Belfast, Northern Ireland

? A local, slice-of-life story from a Monitor correspondent.

Skip to next paragraph

?Belfast was a byword for gloom during the Troubles that spanned from the late 1960s to late 1990s, but it is experiencing a new vitality.

Ironically this coincides with the anniversary of the tragedy of the RMS Titanic, which sank 100 years ago on April 15 with a loss of more than 1,500 lives. Belfast is set to commemorate this sad milestone with church services and other events.

The city, which tried to ignore the Titanic until recently because of misplaced guilt at her loss, is now celebrating the shipbuilding genius of the Belfast workers who made her the most advanced vessel in the world at the time. Two recent developments helped the Titanic to become a source of pride: the discovery of the wreck in 1985 by Robert Ballard and the 1997 blockbuster movie, ?Titanic.?

Gradually it became respectable to talk about the Titanic in Belfast, and the city?s shipbuilding history will be celebrated during the Titanic Belfast Festival in April.

The new Titanic Belfast museum will be the world?s largest Titanic visitor attraction.

This befits a resurgent Belfast that was nominated by National Geographic Traveler magazine as one of the world?s top tourist attractions for 2012, and with the steady improvement of political relationships, the city looks set for much happier times.

Prenatal exposure to combustion-related pollutants and anxiety, attention problems in young children

Prenatal exposure to combustion-related pollutants and anxiety, attention problems in young children

Thursday, March 22, 2012

Mothers' exposure during pregnancy to a class of air pollutants called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) can lead to behavioral problems in their children. PAH are released to air during incomplete combustion of fossil fuel such as diesel, gasoline, coal, and other organic material.

The study is the first report of associations between child attentional and behavioral problems among school?age children and two complementary measures of prenatal PAH exposure: monitored air concentrations of PAH and a PAH-specific biomarker of exposure measured in maternal and umbilical cord blood. The paper, "Prenatal Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) Exposure and Child Behavior at age 6-7," published online today in Environmental Health Perspectives, adds to rising concerns about the risks associated with exposures to air pollution during pregnancy.

The study followed the children of 253 non?smoking inner-city women who gave birth between 1999 and 2006. Researchers led by Frederica Perera, DrPH, director of the Columbia Center for Children's Environmental Health at the Mailman School of Public Health, measured two complementary indicators of PAH exposure. One indicator was the PAH concentration in air from personal air sampling which took place during the third trimester of pregnancy. The other was a specific biological marker of exposure-- PAH?DNA adducts measured in maternal blood and newborn umbilical cord blood. When inhaled by the mother during pregnancy, PAH can be transferred across the placenta and bind to the DNA of the fetus, forming "adducts" in blood and other tissues and providing a biologic measure of pollutant exposure.

Mothers completed a detailed assessment of their child's behavior (including whether the children experienced symptoms of anxiety, depression, or attention problems. High prenatal PAH exposure, whether characterized by personal air monitoring or maternal and newborn cord adducts, was significantly associated with symptoms of Anxious/Depressed and Attention Problems.

In urban air, traffic emissions are a dominant source of the pollutants measured in the study. Illustrating widespread exposure to these pollutants, 100% of the mothers in the Columbia Center for Children's Environmental Health NYC cohort had detectable levels of PAH in prenatal personal air samples, although levels varied widely. The authors accounted for other sources of PAH such as environmental tobacco smoke and diet in their analyses. None of the mothers in the study were smokers.

"This study provides evidence that environmental levels of PAH encountered in NYC air can adversely affect child behavior. The results are of concern because attention problems and anxiety and depression have been shown to affect peer relationships and academic performance," said Dr. Perera, the study's lead author.

LOS ANGELES (AP) ? Fans are eating up "The Hunger Games," which has opened strongly with $19.7 million domestically from overnight shows that started after midnight.

That's the seventh-best midnight total ever and puts the movie well on the way toward a blockbuster opening weekend.

The top six midnight draws come from two other teen-based franchises ? three movies each from the "Harry Potter" and "Twilight" series.

Last year's "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2" leads the list with $43.5 million from midnight shows.

The most recent three "Twilight" movies and the two previous "Harry Potter" flicks make up the rest of the top six with midnight grosses ranging from $22.2 million to $30.3 million.

"The Hunger Games" stars Jennifer Lawrence as a teen forced into a televised death match with other youths.
