�Variation in the gene for one of the receptors for the internal secretion vasopressin appears to be associated with how human males julian Bond with their partners, according to an international team of researchers.
The researchers establish that the "334" allelomorph of a common AVPR1A variation, the human version of avpr1a studied in voles, seemed to have negative personal effects on men's relationship with their spouses.
"Our findings are particularly interesting because they show that men wHO are in a comparatively stable relationship of basketball team years of more world Health Organization have one or iI copies of allele 334 appear to be less bonded to their partners than work force with other forms of this gene," says Jenae Neiderhiser, professor of psychology, Penn State. "We as well found that the distaff partners of men with one or two copies of allele 334 reported less heart, consensus and cohesion in the matrimony, but interestingly, did not report lower levels of marital satisfaction than women whose male partners had no copies of allele 334."
In voles, a mouselike animal, the comparable gene has been studied extensively and has long been linked to vole bonding behaviors. This is the first report to propose that the wealth of information on vole pair-bonding may besides apply to humans and may help to inform research on human disorders related to impaired social interactions and communication, such as autism.
A series of studies on vole populations, begun at the NIMH Intramural Research Program in the mid 1980s, showed that, in male rodents, variations in a section of the gene avpr1a affect social bonding behaviors, such as choosing a mate and parenting. The animal studies suggested a possible

USA Today Examines Success Rates For Cessation Smoking Among Pregnant Women
�On Monday, USA Today examined the rate of smoking among pregnant women and the success rates of several programs to help such women quit. According to Tom Glynn of the American Cancer Society, nearly 45% of pregnant smokers are able-bodied to stop, compared with a rate of about 10% to 20% among all smokers who commonly quit after going through a smoking cessation programme.
Research shows that even three minutes of smoking cessation counselling by a physician doubles the likelihood that a pregnant char will relinquish smoking, Tracy Orleans, aged scientist at the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, said. Robert Wood Johnson implements a program in which counselors give pregnant women who do not roll of tobacco coupons for infant supplies, Orleans aforesaid. The program tests women's blood for nicotine byproducts. "It breaks quitting up into smaller segments of time," Orleans said, adding, "So women think, 'I just have to have through the next month,' or 'If I can make it just 10 more than days until I get my following checkup, I can stimulate this $20 gift certificate.' It helps you rally the willpower you need."
However, half of pregnant smokers who quit begin smoke again within six months of vaginal birth, according to CDC. Up to 80% of women who take leave during pregnancy are smoke again within one year, the American Legacy Foundation reports. People often return to smoke during multiplication of stress, and women who are experiencing postnatal depression ar more potential to take up smoking, according to Alex Parks of the American Legacy Foundation. The American Cancer Society reports that about half of women who smoke during pregnancy are living with a mood disorder. Because mothers often go out pediatricians more than their own physicians, the American Academy of Pediatrics' Smoke-Free Home Program trains pediatricians on counseling parents to quit smoking. About 75% of women smokers suppose they want to quit, and about half say they receive tried in the last year, according to the American Cancer Society (Szabo, USA Today, 7/28).

Paramore's Hayley Williams Lashes Out At Ex-Stepfather For Selling Her Handwritten Book On Ebay
Between the rumors of her pregnancy and of the band's breakup, Paramore singer Hayley Williams has had to deal with a lot of grief this year. And while she shot down the previous false reports by politely saying they were simply not true, she's taking the gloves off to deal with the latest scandal.
Posting on Paramore's LiveJournal page on Sunday, while the band was in Germany for the Rock am Ring festival, Williams lashed out at her ex-stepfather for posting some of her personal items for sale on eBay. In a post titled "ebay revenge," Williams wrote, "So ... I've decided to do this. It was only half thought out, but I'm doing it anyways. ... I saw that post someone made about the 'handwritten book' on eBay. Yes, it's mine. Hahah. I don't remember being a sad child, but I definitely loved horror films at a really young age. I guess that was reflected in this particular assignment," she said of the stapled-together book that appears to have been made out of colorful construction paper. The book's table of contents says it was written in July 1996, when she would have been 7 years old, and the chapters include "Me and your death," "It's to die for," "Mama help" and "My bad + sad Moments."
The eBay listing for the book had been removed at press time, but it was probably still up when Williams wrote her post.
"I'm actually posting about the seller of this item," she wrote. "It happens to be my ex-stepfather, who is ... well ... insane, hence the reason he is my EX-stepfather. So, while I can laugh at the fact that a bit of my past has surfaced, I have to admit I felt like throwing sh-- when I saw the username."
Williams wrote that she would love to post her ex-stepdad's full name, workplace and phone number, so that all her fans could "show him what it feels like when your personal life is out there for everyone to put their hands on." But instead, she said she would take the high road because, "fortunately for him, living with him for seven years wasn't quite enough to make me turn out just like him ... or was it?"
The post ends with Williams asking her fans not to bid on the item because she planned on buying it herself. And then, she appeared to have a change of heart: Her postscript includes a phone number after all, telling her fans to "coughgivehimhellcough." It is no longer a working number, however.

RealNetworks Announces Intention to Spin Off Its Casual Games Business
SEATTLE, May 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- RealNetworks(R), Inc.,
(Nasdaq: RNWK) today announced that it intends to separate its global
casual games business into an independent company and distribute shares of
the newly created games company to its shareholders. RealNetworks may
precede the spin off with an initial public offering and sale of up to 20%
of the shares of the new games company.
RealNetworks' casual games business is a leader in the casual games
industry worldwide, with a vertically integrated development, publishing,
licensing, distribution and retail business. Casual games are family
friendly and easy-to-learn but hard-to-master. Played on personal
computers, mobile devices and living room consoles, casual games include
board, word and hidden-object games and puzzles. In the first quarter of
2008, RealNetworks' games business revenue rose 33% from the first quarter
of 2007 to $31.8 million. For 2007, games revenue was $108.5 million, up
26% over 2006.
"RealNetworks was a pioneer and has been a leader in the casual games
industry since we introduced RealArcade in 2001," said Rob Glaser, Chairman
and CEO of RealNetworks. "We believe that spinning off our casual games
business will give it the best opportunity to continue to flourish and
lead."
The company anticipates that spinning off its casual games business
will result in two more flexible and focused companies. In addition, the
separation will provide the games business with an industry-specific
currency for future acquisitions and enhance its ability to attract and
retain the best talent in the industry.
"Today's announcement demonstrates our commitment to create long-term
value for RealNetworks' shareholders," said Michael Eggers, Senior Vice
President and CFO of RealNetworks. "For investors, we anticipate that the
spin off will create a pure-play casual games business with increased
transparency, and that it will result in lower complexity in understanding
and tracking RealNetworks' performance. We also think that the new
structure will provide current and potential shareholders with two
attractive investment options that may be more closely aligned with their
various investment objectives."
RealNetworks expects that either a spin off or an IPO and subsequent
spin off will be tax-free to its shareholders. In addition to a final
approval by the RealNetworks' Board of Directors, completion of the
transaction will be subject to a number of factors, including the
effectiveness of a registration statement, the receipt of a favorable
letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, the receipt of an opinion
of tax counsel, market conditions, the execution of inter-company
agreements and other matters.
RealNetworks expects to determine its specific course of action in time
to file appropriate documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission
by the end of the year.

Grant & Hurley Win Cash Payout Over Holiday Photos
Actor Hugh Grant and his ex-girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley have won $116,000 in damages for invasion of privacy, after they were photographed on holiday in a private resort in the Maldives. Grant, model Hurley and her businessman husband Arun Nayar filed suit against photo agencies Big Pictures (U.K.) Limited and Eliot Press SARL last year, when snaps of the trio on holiday were published in a number of British newspapers. Laura Tyler, the lawyer representing Grant, Hurley and Nayar, appeared at London's High Court on Thursday morning, when she told M.r Justice Eady that the pictures had been taken covertly and without her clients' knowledge. She also argued that the claimants had chosen the resort because it offered them complete privacy and seclusion. She told the court: "It has been most upsetting for the claimants to have their privacy invaded by these defendants." The photos were later printed in the News of the World and The Mail on Sunday newspapers, as well as a number of celebrity magazines. In addition to the cash for damages, the claimants will receive some money towards their legal costs from the two photo agencies, and agency bosses apologized for any distress their actions may have caused. Further contributions will also be made by the News of the World's publisher News Group Newspapers, and Associated Newspapers, which prints The Mail on Sunday.See Also
