Lifestyle Show 12:00-1:00

12:40-1:00 Frankie speaks with Jonathon Fast author of “Ceremonial Violence.” In this penetrating examination of the nations school shootings, Fast; a professor of social work at Yeshiva University explores such psychological theories as identity confusion and childhood abuse. Outlining 13 incidents, Fast concentrates on five between 1979 and the 1999 Columbine shootings. Each shooting is described in unflinching detail, from 16-year-old Brenda Spencer's declaration that her hatred of Mondays led her to kill two adults and wound eight children at a San Diego elementary school, to 16-year-old Luke Woodham's brutal matricide before killing two students and wounding six more at his high school. Avoiding simplistic labels, Fast builds a psychological profile of each teen, weighing upbringing and prior history of violence. His meticulously detailed portrait of Columbine's Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold anchors the work, and Fast dissects not only the boys themselves but the culture of Columbine as a school and Littleton, Colo., as a community. Although not a book about solutions, it is not without hope. Fast recognizes the impossibility of predicting school rampage shooters, but outlines clear and realistic goals for educators, community leaders, parents and students that could help prevent these violent attacks.

Frankie’s Guest Line-Up for Wednesday 10/15/08

Health Show 11:00-12:00

11:00-11:30 Frankie welcomes Rod Colvin discussing his new book “Overcoming Prescription Drug Addiction: A Guide to Coping and Understanding.” This newly revised third edition delves into the most widely abused narcotic in the U.S--prescription drugs. The book offers help to those suffering from this type of addiction as well as their families. The topics discussed include dynamics of addiction and the newest treatment options, who is at risk for addiction, why more teens are abusing prescription drugs, the symptoms of withdrawal, and methods of intervention for family members. Personal stories from addicts who describe their journeys into recovery are also included.

Ten Things You Should Know if you’re Addicted to Prescription Drugs

Prescription drug addiction is one of the nation's most serious drug problems.

1. Addiction is a chronic, progressive disease. It is ultimately fatal if not brought under control.

2. You are not alone. Millions of people are struggling with addiction. However, feelings of shame and guilt may cause you to feel lonely and isolated.

3. Addiction virtually "rewires" the brain. The drugs cause the brain to stop producing natural chemicals, so when the drugs are stopped, the brain starts craving them.

4. Once addicted, if you stop taking the drugs abruptly, you will experience withdrawal symptoms, which can include: irritability, chills alternating with hot flashes, salivation, nausea, and abdominal cramps.

5. Some drugs of addiction, including benzodiazepines such as Valium, Xanax, Ativan, Klonopin, should not be stopped abruptly. Withdrawal symptoms could include seizure. Talk to a medical professional about tapering usage gradually.

6. Recovery is possible. Millions of people have recovered; however, most will tell you they needed to ask for help.

7. Feeling helpless and hopeless is part of addiction. These feelings need not stop you from recovering. Forgive yourself for past actions. No one can change the past, but the future is yours.
8. New drugs have been available for several years; can help those addicted to painkillers. For example, Suboxone, prescribed by doctors, eliminates the cravings for drugs and can help you stabilize your life.
    
9. Life-saving warning: once you are abstinent for a few weeks, you can lose the drug tolerance you had built up. If you relapse and take the same high dosage you may have taken months ago, it can kill you.

10. Most physicians are not trained to diagnose or treat addiction. Go to a doctor who understands addiction. Locate an addiction medicine physician at American Society of Addiction Medicine. www.asam.org

12:04-12:20 Frankie speaks to Robert Wolke author of “What Einstein Told His Cook 2: The Sequel: Further Adventures in Kitchen Science.” Food-science columnist Wolke returns with a further compilation of his ever-popular and instructive essays on the whys and wherefores of the foods we cook and eat. How old are 1,000-year eggs? How can one cut onions without crying? What makes some mashed potatoes gluey? Why does split-pea soup turn into green cement? Are nitrites really harmful? Is buckwheat a type of wheat? How can I avoid buying adulterated scallops?  His accurate use of language in food writing ought to be required reading for both menu designers and aspiring food journalists.

12:40-1:00 Frankie welcomes Nick Tasler author of “Impulse Factor :Why Some of Us Play It Safe and Others Risk It All.” The Impulse Factor offers readers a unique online opportunity to analyze their own decision-making style and harness it to improve their everyday lives. Each book comes with access to a proprietary assessment developed specifically to evaluate impulsivity. With examples from business, psychology, and Tasler's own research at TalentSmart, the book also vividly illustrates how susceptible we are to the events around us and how our reactions often run contrary to our best interests.

Health Show 11:00-12:00

Frankie welcomes Dr. Jane Hightower a diagnostician and an internal medicine Doctor One of the first Bay Area doctors to start diagnosing mercury poisoning in her patients. Dr. Jane Hightower's year-long study of mercury levels in patients in her San Francisco medical practice brought national attention to what has been a badly under-publicized health threat. First published in the November 1, 2002, issue of Environmental Health Perspectives, a journal from the National Institute of Environmental Health Services, the study found elevated mercury levels in many of her patients, levels that Dr. Hightower associates with patients' consumption of fish from commercial sources.

In this audio clip, she explains how to know if you might be getting too much mercury from the fish you eat. And, she tells us what she feeds her 10-year old twin boys. (Hint: No tuna fish sandwiches in the Hightower home.)

Certified Master Auto Technician Sam Memmelo offers advice to consumers on the importance of protecting their cars in the fall and winter months because good auto health can mean a better fuel economy.

Sampling of Fall Car Care Tips:

·     RECHARGE!  The heat of summer is actually harder on your car’s battery that most other seasons. The smart thing to do is to have your battery tested and inspected by a competent professional to ensure you’re not powerless and stuck in the cold when you least expect it.

·     REPLACE! October is the perfect month to replace dirty and clogged air filters. Replacing such filters can increase your gas mileage by as much as ten percent.

·     DEGUNK! Prevent your engine from acquiring gunky build-up by using a top-tier gasoline.

But that’s not easy when life runs at warp speed—you’re simultaneously coping with ever-increasing demands: dependent kids, aging parents, or both; shopping; cooking; laundry; money pressures; and more, more, more. Good bet you’re super-stressed, tightly wound, sleep-deprived—and it shows.  Happily, stress aging is very reversible. And it takes only a few days. While you may never be able to totally turn off all the pressure (if only!), Dr. Wechsler has plenty of combination strategies—from her own favorite stress buster to her number one wrinkle reverser—to help you turn back the aging effects of tension and time. She’ll also teach you how to slow down and, to some degree, reverse the natural aging process.

12:05-12:20 Frankie has an amazing interview with Country Music Star Sara Evans discussing “The Importance of Family Dinners.” It’s back to school time – when most families say goodbye to lazy summer afternoons and suddenly get pretty busy with homework, sports and music lessons - to name a few. A host of studies show that eating dinner together has many benefits beyond getting everyone in the same place at the same time. Here are five really good reasons why sharing a meal with your family is good for the stomach and the soul.

 

 

1. You Could Get an A+: Research shows that children who eat dinner with their families five or more times a week are more likely to have higher grades in school – regardless of gender, family structure or economic status .
2. It’s Easier to Say No to Drugs: According to the Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, frequent family meals have been linked to a lower risk of smoking, drinking and using marijuana. When you spend more time with your kids at the dinner table, it’s easier to spot changes in behavior and develop a better relationship with them.
3. Good Conversation Builds Confidence: Researchers at Emory University found that pre-teens whose parents tell family stories at dinner have higher self-esteem and get along better with their peers during their teen years.
4. Eating at the Table Means Eating Better: A University of Minnesota study found that kids in families who watched TV while eating meals together had a poorer diet than children whose families ate together around a table. Boys who watched TV while eating ate fewer vegetables and grains and drank more soft drinks while girls who watched TV ended up eating fewer dark vegetables and more fried food.
5. It’s Good for Girls: Studies show that teenage girls who ate five or more meals per week with their families were less likely to resort to extreme dieting measures such as self-induced vomiting, diet pills or laxatives. This was true regardless of socioeconomic status, body mass index or family connectedness.                       www.getbacktothetable.com

                                                                               

12:20-12:40 Frankie welcomes Judy Zerafa discussing “Real Life Success Begins in the Mind.” For 25 years, Judy Zerafa has been on the leading-edge of the science of the subconscious mind to empower people of all ages and life circumstances. Zerafa’s step-by-step how-to's are fundamental to any kind of success and they cross race, gender, age and socio-economic boundaries. In the last 25 years Zerafa has taught hundreds of thousands, including families, teachers, students, athletes, business and professional leaders, worldwide, how to achieve their goals. She coins her program, Judy Zerafa’s Seven Keys to Success Life Program^™. The unique approach presents a way to utilize thoughts, emotions and highly effective subconscious programming to personally define and systematically achieve success.

12:40-1:00 Frankie speaks to Chris Attwood author of “The Passion Test: The Effortless Path to Discovering Your Life Purpose.” Co-founders of the online magazine Healthy Wealthy 'n' Wise, husband and wife team Bray and Attwood have produced a self-help guide with a simple test at its core, requiring readers to list and prioritize their goals, wants and desires, weeding and striking until they have just five "passions" listed; those are then held against one's life to determine how close one is to each .A full life steeped in passion is achievable, the authors assert, through the application of three concepts: intention, attention and "no tension."
