�Using across the nation representative survey data, researchers examined the patterns and trends in the consumption of intimate and reproductive health precaution services in U.S. women aged 15 to 44 between 1995 and 2002. The results conclude that the receipt of preventive services (a birth control method or a prescription) among American women rosiness significantly during the clock time of this study (1995-2002) from 36 percent to 41 percentage; however the overall receipt of intimate and generative health precaution services remained constant, with 74 pct of U.S. women reporting receipt of such services.
"Possible explanations for this trend admit both increased demand for contraceptive services (e.g., because of changing prophylactic device use patterns) and improved financial accessibility of preventative care within the private sector (e.g., because of punter insurance coverage of preventative services)," the study's source inferred.

The start Brazilian rock music band, Barão Vermelho deserves the title because piece Blitz was the starting time to pass water success in the style concocted in the '80s in Brazil, Blitz was a pop band with pinches of rock, piece Barão Vermelho had a visceral whoremonger Rock attack from the commencement. Barão Vermelho began as a school friends' experimentation. MaurÃcio Augusto Carvalho de Barros (keyboard) and Flávio Augusto Goffi Marquezini (drummer) used to play Led Zeppelin and the Rolling Stones covers at Barros' father's garage about 1980. Guitarist Roberto Frejat joined the duo soon before bassist André Palmeira Cunha (Dé). As they required a vocalist, they tried the novice Leo Jayme, earth Health Organization was after a light pop circle, nominating Agenor Miranda Araújo Neto for the place. As Cazuza, the new singer/composer would incite Barão Vermelho's performances and bequeath for a successful solo life history. His being logos of the artistic director for a major tag (Som Livre) helped a band in that. Joining forces with Frejat, the duet wrote virtually all of their corporeal, which was presented in a show up at the Morro da Urca, opening for the grim funk creative person Sandra Sá (now Sandra de Sá). The show was a fiasco, precisely the demonstration tape used to prove the repertoire was heard by the rock critic Ezequiel Neves, world Health Organization loved the sound. Neves persuaded Som Livre producer Guto Graça Mello, and they recorded the first LP by Barão Vermelho (the name taken from a Peanuts amusing), Barão Vermelho. Released in September, 1982, the album didn't gather the public's interest. Barão Vermelho 2 (1983) too didn't sell, just then the chemic group lavatory Drew the attention of deuce important MPB artists: Caetano Veloso, world Health Organization genus Panax quinquefolius "Todo Amor Que Houver Nessa Vida" (Cazuza/Frejat, from the first album), and Ney Matogrosso, world Health Organization recorded "Professional Dia Nascer Feliz" (Cazuza/Frejat, from the second base album), grading a stumble with it. Immediately the pronounce recorded a individual with the banding performing the sung dynasty dynasty, which had an regular bigger success. In the following year, the film Bete Balanço (Lael Rodrigues) included the stem birdcall written by Cazuza/Frejat and performed by the band, which too appeared in that film. A typical youth moving-picture express, it hit the mark, attracting 1.4 gazillion spectators. It prepared the setting for the mainstream appropriation of Brazilian whoremonger Rock in its kickoff intuitive variation. Maior Abandonado was the biggest succeeder of the band, including the title runway and "Bete Balanço." The popularity of the film and the isthmus could be seen during the Festival Bete Balanço de Rock, where Lobão & Os Ronaldos, Celso Blues Boy, Titãs, Brylho, and Metralhatxeca, along with the Barão, performed the film's soundtrack alive. In January, 1985, the Barão performed double in the historic number one base edition of the Rock in Rio fiesta. In recent July, Cazuza at pacification for his solo vocation, tired of share-out. With the forthcoming fourth album cancelled by the defection, Frejat took the singer position, recording "Torre de Babel" for a TV Globo particular. The strain dynasty, marking a reach, opened the way for the Declare Guerra (Som Livre, 1986) album which had a collaboration with Cazuza in "Um Dia Na Vida," "Maioridade," and "Que o Deus Venha." With unfit distribution, the album didn't take off and precipitated the loss of the band to a new label, WEA, where they recorded the barge Rock'n Geral (1987). In February 1988, MaurÃcio Barros left the band, and guitarist Fernando Magalhães and percussionist Peninha (Paulo Pizziali) joined the grouping, recording Carnaval, a return to intemperate rock 'n' roll. The impinge on of the album was "Pense e Dance." On the album enlistment, in June 1989, the live album Barão ao Vivo was recorded in the DamaXoc night club amidst massive publicity. In 1990, the mathematical group performed in the II Rock in Rio fete, when the inevitable departure of the bassist Dé was matt-up by the audience ascribable to his ironical attitude. The bass in the raw album Na Calada da Noite was recorded by Dadi (at one time of A Cor do Som), just the fact was but made public in May, when the album was already done -- which, perchance unknowingly did judge to the album's statute title. The tone ending of the raw album coincided with the death by AIDS of Cazuza, on July 7th. One of its songs, "O Poeta Está Vivo," referred to a poet being alert soundless. In 1996, the mathematical grouping scored another hit with "Malandragem, Dá Um Tempo," by the sambista Moreira da Silva. The other CDs by the band include Supermercados da Vida (1992, WEA), Carne Crua (1994, WEA), and Ãlbum, (1996, WEA).
'Mary-Kate Olsen Knows Nothing About Heath Ledger Drugs'
Mary-Kate Olsen has denied being uncooperative with agents over the death of Heath Ledger, with her lawyer insistence she knows nothing about the drugs which killed her late friend.
Entertainmentwise reported on rumours yesterday that officials behind a federal probe into Ledger's January death from an accidental overdose were targeting Olsen - but she was refusing to co-operate until she was guaranteed immunity from prosecution.
Her name was dragged into the fount because the masseuse wHO found Ledger dead called Olsen before contacting the emergency services, prompting suspicions.
The 22-year-old actress' lawyer Michael C. Miller now tells Usmagazine.com that Olsen has provided the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) with all the information she has on her late pal.
Miller says: "Regarding the Government's investigation, at Ms. Olsen's request, we have provided the Government with relevant information including facts in the chronology of events surrounding Mr. Ledger's last and the fact that Ms. Olsen does non know the source of the drugs Mr. Ledger consumed."
Miller as well blasted reports that Olsen faces a Grand Jury subpoena if she refuses to collaborate, adding: "We don't know the source of the information being quoted in the media regarding the Government's inquiry, but these descriptions are incomplete and inaccurate."
