A systematic review and meta-analysis of available data published in Diabetologia suggests that combined aerobic and resistance training, rather than either alone, is best for controlling both blood sugar and blood fat profiles among people with type 2 diabetes.

However, the authors stress that the strength of the results is weakened when studies with high risk of bias are removed, and thus more high quality trials are needed to make more definitive conclusions. 

The UK government is in a deficit crisis. Unlike the US, they seem to worry about it.

In order to reduce the deficit, they have taken steps to make welfare less of a chronic lifestyle. 

Since 2010 the UK government has introduced a raft of reforms to the welfare system in a bid to reduce the deficit, but a total of 1,056 GPs across the UK who completed a survey (out of 28,602 who were contacted) lead the authors of a recent paper in BMJ to suggest that people receiving welfare support due to illness or disability are struggling to cope with cuts to their benefits and are turning to their GP practices for help - which has increased the workload for doctors.

The argument for making marijuana legal despite its health risks is that so many people use it anyway that it creates a society of casual criminals at best - maybe they are getting a bogus prescription for 'pain' or glaucoma or inventing some way it helps them. And at worst it makes criminals rich and puts users at risk because the quality is unmonitored and perhaps even dangerous.

Scorpions build a platform on which to warm up before the evening hunt. 

As older adults typically have one or more chronic health conditions that can affect dietary intake, malnutrition has been identified as a serious problem in older adults. This has given rise to the recommendation that nutrition screenings be a mandatory part of the comprehensive geriatric analysis (CGA).

The CGA, first developed in the 1930s, is a multidimensional diagnostic process that looks at a frail elderly person's medical, psychosocial, and functional capabilities in order to develop an overall plan for treatment and follow-up. While it has been used across health settings, the CGA is typically used in a geriatric specialty unit by a team that includes physicians, nurses, dietitians, pharmacists, therapists, and social workers.

Why do females sometimes ignore males and sometimes stop and pay attention?

There are many conjectures: looking like Ryan Gosling seems to help but there are a lot of other variables: if the female is under the age of 30, a male being unemployed while he 'gets his band together' is sometimes fine, yet after age 30 females regard that as unacceptable.
