Shortage of young (white) male doctors

Professor Don Roberton, head of Otago Medical School, said he would be reluctant to lintroduce affirmative action for men and says it's more important that doctors can cater to all patients' cultural needs rather than their particular ethnicity. He said there would also be a difficulty in identifying the white Anglo-Saxon Kiwi males, given our multicultural society.

Medical Association chairman Dr Peter Foley said younger doctors wanted to work fewer hours than their predecessors, meaning two graduates effectively did the work of 1.5 doctors.

More support for lycopene's prostate benefits

Forty people took part in the new pilot study, which adds clinical data to an area previously lacking, according to the researchers in this month's Journal of Nutrition.Epidemiological evidence has suggested that tomato-based foods can protect men from prostate cancer. One study found that men eating four to five tomato based-dishes per week were 25 per cent less likely to develop prostate cancer compared to men eating tomatoes only rarely. Such findings are boosting the lycopene market, with growth rates forecast at over 100 per cent by Frost and Sullivan, albeit from a low base of around €27m ($34m) in 2003.Researchers, led by Silke Schwarz from the University of Hohenheim, recruited the men with BPH but no signs of prostate cancer, and randomly assigned them to receive either daily lycopene supplements (15 mg, LycoVit, BASF) or placebo for six months.Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a non-cancerous swelling in the prostate gland of older men.

Spending Worthless Nights at Olin Libe

Olin Library. Sunday night. It is approaching 10 p.m. and there is nowhere you would rather be — assuming, of course, that Entourage is in its off-season. You've got weeks' worth of work to do and enough caffeine in your system to last three days. You're looking good because, hey, you never know who may stand behind you in the coffee line, and you're feeling good because you're already at the library — is that not half the battle? You might be parked across the Quad in a tow zone, but for as long as you can convince yourself that you are being quasi-productive, you can defer the cold and rainy trek home.

First, find a seat. This, however, is not nearly as simple as it might sound. There are three classes of seating at Olin Library, and you, savvy studier, must make a decision.
