...After 19 years, about 1 in 10 had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. Although testosterone levels were down across the board, they fell precipitously in the men who developed Alzheimer's, to about half the levels of the men who did not develop the disease. Dr. Susan Resnick, who wrote the paper, believes testosterone may interfere with the production of the plaques and tangles associated with the devastating brain disorder.

There may also be other factors, such as the fit of the bike and your own individual anatomy and riding style...
...Reagan Republicans, says Club President Stephen Moore. Desperate to protect all their incumbents, House Republican leaders are privately furious with the genetic engineering plan. "The Club has lost track of Ronald Reagan's 11th Commandment - not to speak ill of fellow Republicans," gripes Main Street Executive Director Sarah Chamberlain Resnick. But even GOP presidents tend to ignore that commandment when it's convenient. President George W. Bush, for example, has broken it several times this year, taking sides in several GOP primaries...
