The first comprehensive review in five years of the world’s 634 kinds of primates found that almost 50 percent are in danger of going extinct, according to the criteria of the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.

Issued at the 22nd International Primatological Society Congress in Edinburgh, Scotland, the report by the world’s foremost primate authorities presented a chilling indictment on the state of primates everywhere. In Asia, more than 70 percent of primates are classified on the IUCN Red List as Vulnerable, Endangered or Critically Endangered – meaning they could disappear forever in the near future.

The main threats are habitat destruction, particularly from the burning and clearing of tropical forests that also emits at least 20 percent of the global greenhouse gases causing climate change, and the hunting of primates for food and an illegal wildlife trade.

“We’ve raised concerns for years about primates being in peril, but now we have solid data to show the situation is far more severe than we imagined,” said Russell A. Mittermeier, president of Conservation International (CI) and the longtime chairman of the IUCN Species Survival Commission’s Primate Specialist Group. “Tropical forest destruction has always been the main cause, but now it appears that hunting is just as serious a threat in some areas, even where the habitat is still quite intact. In many places, primates are quite literally being eaten to extinction.”

The review funded by CI, the Margot Marsh Biodiversity Foundation, Disney’s Animal Kingdom and the IUCN is part of an unprecedented examination of the state of the world’s mammals to be released at the 4th IUCN World Conservation Congress in Barcelona in October.

With the input of hundreds of experts worldwide, the primate review provides scientific data to show the severe threats facing animals that share virtually all DNA with humans. In both Vietnam and Cambodia, approximately 90 percent of primate species are considered at risk of extinction. Populations of gibbons, leaf monkeys, langurs and other species have dwindled due to rampant habitat loss exacerbated by hunting for food and to supply the wildlife trade in traditional Chinese medicine and pets.

“What is happening in Southeast Asia is terrifying,” said Jean-Christophe Vié, Deputy Head of the IUCN Species Program. “To have a group of animals under such a high level of threat is, quite frankly, unlike anything we have recorded among any other group of species to date.” Read the rest of Extinction threat growing for mankind’s closest relatives »

Group-based diet and exercise lifestyle interventions over six years can prevent or delay diabetes for up to 14 years after the intervention period. But whether lifestyle interventions also lead to reduced cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality remains unclear. These are the conclusions of authors of an Article in this week’s Diabetes Special Issue of The Lancet.

While several major clinical trials around the world have shown the effectiveness of lifestyle interventions to reduce diabetes incidence in people with impaired glucose tolerance*, questions remain over how long post-intervention these strategies remain effective. Professor Guangwei Li, China-Japan Friendship Hospital, Beijing, China, and Dr Ping Zhang, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, Georgia, USA, and colleagues did the China Da Qing Diabetes Prevention Outcome Study (CDQDPOS), which followed-up patients 20 years after enrolment.

In 1986, 577 adults with impaired glucose tolerance from 33 clinics in China were randomly assigned to the control group or one of three lifestyle intervention groups (diet, exercise, or diet plus exercise). Active intervention took place over six years until 1992, and in 2006 study participants were followed-up to assess the long-term effect of the interventions. Primary outcomes were diabetes incidence, CVD incidence and mortality, and all-cause mortality.

The researchers found that compared with control participants, the combined lifestyle interventions reduced the incidence of diabetes by about a half (51%) during the active intervention period, and by 43% over the whole 20-year period. The average annual incidence of newly diagnosed diabetes was 7% for intervention participants and 11% in control participants. At the end of the 20 years, 80% of the intervention group had diabetes, compared with 93% of the control group. Those in the intervention group spent an average of 3.6 fewer years with diabetes than those in the control group. While there was no significant difference between intervention and control groups in the rate of first CVD events, CVD mortality and all-cause mortality, the study had limited statistical power to detect differences for these outcomes.

The authors conclude: “This study has shown that, in Chinese people with impaired glucose tolerance, group-based interventions targeting lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise produce a durable and long-lasting reduction in incidence of type 2 diabetes…Since around 3 million excess deaths a year are attributable to diabetes worldwide, lifestyle interventions seem to be a justifiable public-health action both in developed and developing nations.”

In an accompanying Comment, Dr Jaana Lindström, National Public Health Institute, Helsinki and University of Helsinki, Finland, and Professor Matti Uusitupa, University of Kuopio, Finland, say: “We propose that lifestyle intervention should start much earlier, when people are normoglycaemic, to achieve true primary prevention of type 2 diabetes and its main consequence, cardiovascular disease. In this regard, both population-based strategies and those targeted at high-risk groups should be applied.”

Do you spend a lot of time and energy courting prospective new customers, hoping to pump up your bottom line? If so, you’re probably missing an untapped source of sales that exists right inside your company, there’s truth in the statement that your customer list is your most valuable asset.

There’s a gold mine of opportunities to make easier sales and create a loyal following of customers that will return time and again by using your existing customer base to grow your sales. But when I ask small business owners what action they are taking to keep in touch with current customers, the answer is normally “we don’t.”

How do you turn a pile of dusty invoices and sales receipts into profit generators for your business? How can you create loyal customers who will return time and again to increase your small business bottom line? There are three keys to creating customer loyalty.

1. Know Who They Are

Do you? Compile and maintain a list of your customers. Track their habits. Monitor your list so you know when they are doing business with you differently. Then ask why.

2. Know What They’re Worth

I overheard a remark the other day. It was, “Oh, that lady. I barely pay attention to her. She comes in twice a week, but only spends about five dollars. What a waste of my time.” Have you had the same thought about any of your customers? Before you dismiss the customer that only spends five dollars, take a look at her long-term value. How often does she purchase over time? How many people does she refer to you that have the same spending habits? A $5 customer can really be worth over $50,000 in the long term and should be treated like a queen.

3. Take Action

Your customers are busy people. They need to be reminded that you exist and how you can eliminate their pain (wants or needs). Have you ever received mail from a company and decided to save it so you could “check them out later?” Then you find that piece of mail in your “to do” stack months later and realize you never contacted them. Your customers do that too. You have to remind them. Often.

Customer loyalty is not rocket science. But it does take consistent effort. Over 90% of small business owners are letting money walk out the door of their business each and every day. Are you one of them?

Education is really important, thats why so many people have aspirations to get it for many reasons. To get a better jobs, much money and social recognition are some explanations more predominant. Whatever evil many of these people love to reach some sort of education beyond high school, attending a college or university is generally not an option because of existing responsibilities. Having bills, employment, childrenand other responsibilities are usually the people the first priority. The fact that many people can not attend a class each week is a huge factor preventing people from ever getting the education they dream.

In this day and age, with the advent of the Internet, it is no longer a valid excuse. There are many schools online where you can get your education in the comfort of your own computer. There are many advantages to online education. You can spend countless hours with your kids, and get your studies while relaxing after putting them to bed. You can still work a full-time job and then spend a few hours a week learning for the future. I could go on the list of benefits for pages and pages, but then I would slow you down, potentially taking the first step and continue your education online.

For free information on packages of many schools online. What do you expect? Pursue your dreams and discover that education is waiting for you at your finger tips.

Originally this was going to be a list for my two teenagers but some of these ideas are better suited to adults with a valid driver’s license and a bit of know how. Some of these take a bit of planning and organizing, but most of them could be done on a fairly spur of the moment case by case basis. The great thing about a lot of these ideas is that you’re spreading holiday cheer by helping to make someone else’s otherwise stressful and overwhelming to do list a little bit easier. Who wouldn’t pay to have someone come do a few of these things for you? Mostly, what’s important is that you remember to provide a quality item or service to the buyer with a smile on your face and in your heart. Have fun with these!
