	Why do we grow old
		Life Span = the age at which the average individual would die if there were no disease or accidents; it may or may not be fixed.
		Life Expectancy = the expected age at death of the average individual, granting current mortality rates from disease and accident; it is not fixed.
		Life span is NOT increasing and the misconception that it is, is a confusion between life span and life expectancy.

	Medical Breakthroughs - Get the Facts on Alzheimer's Disease
		The study's finding that people with Alzheimer's disease have a shorter life expectancy is "something people can intuitively understand," he added.
		The study, which appears in the April 6 issue of Annals of Internal Medicine, also found that certain symptoms of the disease, such as problems walking and urinary incontinence, indicated a shorter life expectancy.
		The researchers found the average survival after a diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease was 5.7 years for women and 4.2 years for men.

		The average life span is determined by the ages of all those who die, and that figure is drastically impacted by the rate of infant mortality.
		After all, as little as 200 years ago the average life span in North America was 37 years.
		But that cannot mean that people who exceeded the average life span were considered old.

	Life expectancy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Life expectancy is also called average life span or mean life span, in particular distinction to maximum life span (the life span of the most long lived members of a class of living beings).
		Life expectancy is the average number of years remaining for a living being (or the average for a class of living beings) of a given age to live.
		Human life expectancy at various ages and under different circumstances is carefully studied by the insurance and actuarial professions, and is calculated on the basis of historic data as shown on the mortality or annuity table used as a reference.

	Low life expectancy of scientologists & Hubbard on violence
		The national average life spans are 72 for men and 79 for women, which include all deaths at all ages from infant mortality, accidents, homicides, natural causes, etc. The average life expectancy for the six male Scientologists in the obituaries is 59.
		We cannot conclude from this that Scientology shortens life span but it obviously does not extend it and the differences (28% in the case of women) are large enough to invite further investigation to ascertain what, if any, practices in Scientology may contribute to premature death.
		Anyone who cares to review the obituaries in the Saint Pete.Times will discover that Scientologists have a significantly shorter life span than non-Scientologists.

		Mice with higher levels of catalase in their mitochondria lived 5.5 months longer than the controls, whose average life span is about two years.
		To get a significant increase in life span, the researchers not only had to insert a souped-up gene into the mice, they had to target the gene to cell structures called mitochondria.
		He and his co-workers are raising a new generation of genetically engineered mice, hoping to boost life spans further by targeting antioxidants to more types of tissue throughout the animals' bodies.

	Rise in obesity may reverse trend of increasing American lifespans
		The data analysis concludes that increasing obesity rates reduce the average life span by between 4 and 9 months, and that if current obesity trends continue, life expectancy could be reduced by as much as 5 years.
		Researchers have published a data analysis in the New England Journal of Medicine suggesting that the longstanding trend of increasing lifespan in the United States may be coming to an end.
		It's been assumed that U.S. life expectancy would rise indefinitely, but a new data analysis, published as a special report in the March 17 New England Journal of Medicine, suggests that this trend is about to reverse itself -- due to the rapid rise in obesity, especially among children.

		Robbie Harris, a California bird breeder and author, is the mostly widely written grey cheek breeder to date with a book (1985) and numerous articles on the grey cheek and the Brotogeris family.
		Parent-raised birds or adult, wild-caught, grey cheeks are generally not as sweet as hand-fed birds but can be tamed and won over with a lot of love and patience.

		In my opinion, grey cheeks, though not always predictable, sure are a barrel of fun, keep you on your toes, and bring a lot of joy into your life.
		They are often quite fearless, and their curious nature can get them into scrapes with larger birds, with other household pets, and can even endanger their own lives when out wandering if not properly supervised during "out" time (Harris).

	MORE SHIT I GOTTA DO #68 by Jeff Somers
		Granted, 66 hours a week in which to write genius novels, snarky essays, and subtle short stories isn't too bad, but of course it only sounds good until you realize there are 168 hours in a week, meaning 60% of my life is currently wasted at my job and sleep.
		When you consider that a man of my economic means would probably be worked to death by the age of 25 just a century or two ago, the fact that I average about six conscious hours of free time each weekday and a whopping 18 a day on the weekends is not too shabby.
		In 1998 I bought a pretty decent machine and that was when I encountered what is now known as the Internet, and my attention span has been fractured ever since.

	Butterfly Effect, The (2004): Reviews
		This overwrought and egregiously self-serious thriller about the poisonous fruit borne of child abuse grows more ridiculous by the quarter-hour and is poised for a theatrical life span scarcely longer than that of its eponymous insect.
		Arguably worse than its sadistic absurdity is the depressing, limited scope.
		As a thriller, The Butterfly Effect is iffy and uneven, but as a portrait of a people, it's effective and intriguing.

		What follows are two tables (one for males and the other for females, taken from 1997 data for the U.S. National Center for Health Statistics) in which the average life-expectancies are listed for different age categories.
		Caloric restriction profoundly increases maximum life-span in virtually all experimental models; and there is enough empirical evidence that, if done properly according to each individual's situation, it will work for humans.
		From the last adjusted life-expectancy above (2c), take the total number of years which were subtracted from your life-expectancy, and add those years back to your adjusted life-expectancy.

	The Migration of Serbs and Montenegrins from Kosovo and Metohija (III)
		This increase is due in part to the steady decline in the number of deaths and in the death rate, and to the very strong increase in the expected average life span (which in 1950-1985 increased from 48.6 to 66.3 years of age for men, and from 45.2 to 70.3 years of age for women).
		This means that the average life span for non-Kosovo born household heads who moved there between the two world wars ranges from 40 to 50 years until the moment of emigration.
		In 1971 the average age of the household members in the sample was 24.4 for those who had emigrated, and 26.4 for those who had not.

	centenarianstudy.php
		Centenarians by definitions are survivors who have lived to at least 100, which is more than 20 years longer than the average life span.
		Another basic challenge is whether we could generalize the knowledge gained in our volumes of aging research to individuals of average life span which is in their 70s (e.g., the MacArthur Study) to individuals who live 20 to 30 years longer (Rowe and Kahn, 1998).
		The challenge is that there is much to be learned from centenarians about survival, disease, frailty, and independence to promote health and independence for all who hope to maintain a successful quality of life in older adulthood.

	A cost-utility analysis of adult group audiologic rehabilitation: Are the benefits worth the cost?
		CUA captures the cost invested for the expected life span of the outcome, accounting for quality-of-life differences between the alternative interventions using a health-related quality-of-life assessment tool.
		To calculate the cost utility of the two treatment approaches, we needed to determine the change in quality of life as a function of intervention for each participant, as well as the cost of all services involved in each treatment approach.
		Calculating the cost was done by multiplying the cost per session ($68.44) by the total number of sessions (4), dividing by the average number of patients per session (8), and adding the total travel costs over the four sessions ($28.48).

	Japanese Diet Information » Japan increases whale catch
		There are many potential factors which have an affect on the average human life span, but one of the overwhelming factors has to be a healthy diet.
		Statistics revealed in 2004, show the average life span of a Japanese female is 85 years of age and 78 for men.
		I like this quote, “Asking Japan to abandon this part of its culture would compare to Australians being asked to stop eating meat pies, Americans being asked to stop eating hamburgers and the English to go without fish and chips.
