HOUSTON, TX, January 26, 2013 (Press-News.org) The Boomers Guide to Recovering Your Lost Retirement: The Bill Fisher Story by Michael Burns Receives the NABE Pinnacle Award for Best Self Help Book. The book tells the story of Bill Fisher, who at the age of 72, started from scratch investing in high-dividend stocks, municipal bonds and residential real estate and over the next 18 years was able to build a net worth of one million dollars.
Bill didn't win the lottery or inherit a large sum of money. What Bill did do was continue to work at his entry level job and invest his pension money, Social Security checks and his mandatory IRA withdrawals into conservative investments that paid good dividends,interest and rental income.
The book gives inspiration and hope to the millions of Baby Boomers, who have just come through the worst recession since the great depression and in some cases lost over 50% of their retirement money. Bill's story can show them how they too can recover their lost retirement.
The book is available at www.theboomersguides.com or at www.amazon.com in both hard copy or Kindle version.

The OFT Announces Measures to Combat Rogue Debt Management Credit Practices, Says IVA Company, IVAonline.co.uk
2013-01-26
The new guidance is in response to a super-complaint made to the OFT by The Citizens Advice Bureau last March as a result of it's report Cashing In, which revealed how tens of thousands of consumers have been targeted by unscrupulous brokers and debt management companies and tricked out of large sums of money. It details rising instances of dubious practices from brokers and debt management companies, including cold calling or texting consumers offering to help them get an unsecured loan, and taking up front fees for credit brokering but not providing a service, often resulting ...
Depression-era drainage ditches emerge as sleeping threat to Cape Cod salt marshes
2013-01-25
Cape Cod, Massachusetts has a problem. The iconic salt marshes of the famous summer retreat are melting away at the edges, dying back from the most popular recreational areas. The erosion is a consequence of an unexpected synergy between recreational over-fishing and Great Depression-era ditches constructed by Works Progress Administration (WPA) in an effort to control mosquitoes. The cascade of ecological cause and effect is described by Tyler Coverdale and colleagues at Brown University in a paper published online this month in ESA's journal Frontiers in Ecology and the ...
Temple research may lead to new strategies against sepsis
2013-01-25
(Philadelphia, PA) – Scientists at the Center for Translational Medicine at the Temple University School of Medicine are inching closer to solving a long-standing mystery in sepsis, a complex and often life-threatening condition that affects more than 400,000 people in the U.S. every year. By blocking the activity of a protein, STIM1, in cells that line the insides of blood vessels in mice, they have halted a cascade of cellular events that culminates in the out-of-control inflammation that marks sepsis, and protected lungs from severe damage.
The findings, reported ...
An important LINC in human hearing
2013-01-25
In this issue of the Journal of Clinical Investigation, Karen Avraham and colleagues at Tel Aviv University identified a genetic mutation in two families with hereditary high frequency hearing loss. The mutated gene, which has not previously been linked to hearing loss, encodes NESP4, a protein that is expressed in the outer nuclear membrane (ONM) of the hair cells of the ear. Avraham and colleagues found that mutated NESP4 was mislocalized, disrupting a cellular complex known as the "linker of nucleoskeleton and cytoskeleton" or LINC, which maintains the position of the ...
Prostate cancer cells thrive on stress
2013-01-25
Prostate cancer patients have increased levels of stress and anxiety; however, several recent studies have found that men who take drugs that interfere with the stress hormone adrenaline have a lower incidence of prostate cancer. In this issue of the Journal of Clinical Investigation George Kulik and colleagues at Wake Forest University examined the relationship between stress and cancer progression in a mouse model of prostate cancer. Kulik and colleagues found that mice that had been subjected to stress (exposed to the scent of a predator) exhibited a significantly reduced ...

How to predict the future of technology?
2013-01-25
The bread and butter of investing for Silicon Valley tech companies is stale. Instead, a new method of predicting the evolution of technology could save tech giants millions in research and development or developments of new products—and help analysts and venture capitalists determine which companies are on the right track.
The high-tech industry has long used Moore's Law as a method to predict the growth of PC memory. Moore's Law states that the number of chips on a transistor doubles every 18 months (initially every year). A paper by Gareth James and Gerard Tellis, ...
Researchers identify new target for rheumatoid arthritis
2013-01-25
Researchers at Hospital for Special Surgery have identified a potential new target for drugs to treat patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a protein known as IRHOM2. The finding could provide an effective and potentially less toxic alternative therapy to tumor necrosis factor-alpha blockers (TNF-blockers), the mainstay of treatment for rheumatoid arthritis, and could help patients who do not respond to this treatment. Efforts to develop drugs that hone in on this new target are underway.

Female thin bodies like men more than women
2013-01-25
A study conducted at the University of Granada has demonstrated that men like female thinness more than women and they find female overweight more unpleasant than women. In addition, the study revealed that women who are not comfortable with their body perceive women with a "normal" body –i.e. women with a healthy weight– as a threat. Specifically, when these women see a "normal" body they experience feelings of displeasure and lack of control, since they feel they have not any control on their own body and cannot make it be as they want.
This research study was conducted ...
New method identifies genes that can predict prognoses of cancer patients
2013-01-25
BOSTON – In recent years, it has been thought that select sets of genes might reveal cancer patients' prognoses. However, a study published last year examining breast cancer cases found that most of these "prognostic signatures" were no more accurate than random gene sets in determining cancer prognoses. While many saw this as a disappointment, investigators at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC), the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and the Institut de Recherches Cliniques de Montréal (IRCM) saw this as an opportunity to design a new method to identify gene sets ...
