Barrichello switches to Williams

(CNN) -- Brazilian Rubens Barrichello will drive for Williams next season after switching from this year's constructors' champions Brawn GP.
The 37-year-old veteran will form a new driver partnership with promising young German Nico Hulkenberg at the English-based team for the 2010 season.
Hulkenberg, 22, has been the team's test driver in 2009.
They replace German Nico Rosberg and Kazuki Nakajima of Japan, who are leaving after a disappointing 2009 season which has seen Williams finish a lowly seventh in the constructors' standings.
Team principal Frank Williams told the team's offficial Web site www.williamsF1.com that he was delighted with his new signings.
"Rubens needs no introduction. He is not only the most experienced driver in Formula One, but a passionate and talented driver who fought hard for the drivers' championship this year," he said.
"Nico Hulkenberg won the GP2 Championship this season as a rookie and has previously won the F3 Euroseries, Formula Masters, A1 GP and Formula BMW Germany."

Barrichello and new world champion Jenson Button dominated the early part of this year's title race with Brawn.
Button won six of the first seven races, but Barrichello hit back to claim the 10th and 11th grand prix wins of his career in Valencia and Monza to boost his own championship hopes.
A puncture in his home race in Brazil saw Barrichello's title hopes ended and he eventually finished third in the standings after Sebastien Vettel claimed this weekend's inaugural Abu Dhabi GP.
He has made a record 284 starts and is set to break the magic 300 barrier next season with Williams.
Brawn have yet to confirm their 2010 driver line-up with new champion Button set to be rewarded with an improved contract and reports linking Rosberg to a switch after his Williams departure.
In other motorsport news, tire manufacturer Bridgestone announced Monday that it will pull out of Formula One at the end of next season.
Bridgestone becomes the latest Japanese corporation to quit high-end motorsport, with Honda's withdrawal from F1 at the end of last season setting the trend.
In a statement on its Web site, Bridgestone said it was "focused on the need to redirect its resources towards the further intensive development of those innovative technologies and strategic products which support the company's goals."
Bridgestone's main rivals Goodyear and Michelin withdrew from their Formula One activities in earlier seasons, leaving them as the exclusive suppliers in the sport.

Meat linked to increased diabetes risk: Meta-analysis
By Stephen Daniells, 28-Oct-2009
Related topics: Public Concerns
High intake of processed meat may increase the risk of developing type-2 diabetes by 40 per cent, according to a new meta-analysis from Norway and the US.
Data from 12 cohort studies showed that high intakes of all types of meat were associated with a 17 per cent increase in the risk of type-2 diabetes, while similar risk increases were also noted for high intakes of red meat.
The study, published in the journal Diabetologia, adds to an ever increasing list of bad news for red and processed meat, following previous studies from the US National Cancer Institute (NCI) that reported high intakes of red and processed meats may raise the risk of lung and colorectal cancer by up to 20 per cent.
The World Cancer Research Fund published a report in 2007 that directly linked diet to cancer, with alcohol and red and processed meats posing particular risks.
Earlier this year, the same authors published similar findings from a study with half a million people, noting that that increased consumption of red and processed meat may have a modestly increased risk of death from all causes and also from cancer or heart disease (Archives of Internal Medicine, Vol 169, pp. 562-571).
The Archives study was described by Barry Popkin from the University of North Carolina as “excellent” in an accompanying editorial. Popkin added that the results “reiterate the concerns echoed in other major reviews and studies on the adverse effects of excessive meat intake”.
The new meta-analysis, led by Dagfinn Aune from the University of Oslo, sought to iron out the inconsistencies from previous studies which found both positive and negative associations between meat consumption and the risk of type-2 diabetes.
Of the 12 cohort studies pooled, the overall data suggested the high intake of total meat increased the risk of diabetes by 17 per cent, while red meat and processed meat were associated with 21 and 41 per cent increases in diabetes risk.

“These results suggest that meat consumption increases the risk of type 2 diabetes,” said the researcher. “However, the possibility that residual confounding could explain this association cannot be excluded,” they concluded.
A direct mechanistic study of how meat may affect diabetes risk has not been performed. However, an earlier study from Harvard University suggested several “possible biologically adverse effects of components in red and processed meats”, including saturated fatty acids and cholesterol. However, their study (Diabetologia, 2006, Vol. 49, pp. 2604-13) failed to find an association between these components.
Another possibility is the effect of nitrites, frequently used as preservatives in processed meats. “Nitrosamines can be formed by the interaction of amino compounds with nitrites present either in the stomach or within the food product,” they explained. “They have been linked to beta cell toxicity. In addition, low doses of the nitrosamine streptozotocin were found to induce type 2 diabetes in animal models,” they added.
The possible effects of “residual confounding” and uncertainty over the possible mechanism show that more research is clearly needed in this area.

My favorite music.

I like so much Colombian music because I can dance with this kind music, but I prefer tropipop music.
Tropipop is the fusion between tropical, and pop music, american sounds and the caribbean folklore. Many of these sounds are original of the Coast and it is this element one of the most significant for the Colombians. Carlos Vives is the first to create this kind of music.
Its singers or bands most important are Carlos Vives, Fonseca, Andres Cabas, Bonka, Wamba, Sin animo de lucro, Sombrero vueltiao and others.
The rhythm between these different in the youth, they are young. They write romantic and spite songs
For this kind of music, in the parties people use the Sombrero vueltiao.

I love go to the farm of my uncle because there I can think with clarity.
