Mouse hitches ride on rearview mirror
WINNIPEG, Manitoba, Oct. 13 (UPI) -- A Canadian woman transported an unexpected carpool guest when she found a mouse had decided to hitch a ride in her car.
Nadya Crossman-Serb shared a photo of the stowaway mouse as it rested on her rearview mirror while the two waited at a red light.
"Had a little mousey friend help me navigate the construction today," she said.
Crossman-Serb told the CBC she had a "freak-out" moment when she first discovered the mouse and considered knocking it down, but didn't want to escalate the situation.
"So I just left it and we drove home together," she said.
Crossman-Serb and the mouse completed their trip in piece, but the tiny hitchhiker became startled and hid when she tried showing off her newfound friend to her family.
Not wanting to risk another freak-out encounter, Crossman-Serb's dad sought to trap the mouse and remove it from the car.
"He laid a sticky-pad on the [floor] of our car, and it got stuck," she said. "I don't know what he did with it after."

October 14, 1066 - The Norman Conquest began with the Battle of Hastings in which King Harold II of England, the last of the Saxon kings, was defeated and killed by William of Normandy's troops.
October 14, 1912 - Former President Theodore Roosevelt was shot by a fanatic while campaigning in Milwaukee. Roosevelt was saved by his thick overcoat, a glasses case and a folded speech in his breast pocket, all of which slowed the bullet. Although wounded, he insisted on making the speech with the bullet lodged in his chest and did not go to the hospital until the meeting ended. Roosevelt, a rugged outdoorsman, fully recovered in two weeks. |

Women Are You Listening to Your Body?
(BPT) - Three women who don't know each other and have very different backgrounds and life experiences have at least one powerful thing in common: They are survivors of a gynecologic cancer. Janet, Sharolyn, and Teresa each had different signs and symptoms. All three say that knowing their own bodies and what was normal for them, recognizing symptoms, and seeking medical attention promptly made all the difference.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC's) Inside Knowledge campaign, each year about 89,000 women in the U.S. learn they have a gynecologic cancer. The five main gynecologic cancers are cervical, ovarian, uterine, vaginal, and vulvar. However, screening is recommended only for cervical cancer (the Pap test does not screen for any cancer except cervical). Being able to find gynecologic cancers early - when treatment works best - often depends on women knowing their own bodies, recognizing symptoms, and seeing their doctors when something is not normal for them.
At age 54, Janet thought she was done with menopause, but then she had some bleeding that she says was like "mini-periods." The Pennsylvania woman told her doctor, who performed a series of tests. Janet, a creative director, wife, and mother of two, learned she had ovarian cancer.
"If I hadn't mentioned the bleeding, and my doctor hadn't acted as quickly as she had, the outcome would have been much different," Janet said.
Sharolyn, a Virginia native and nurse, was newly married and trying to get pregnant at the time of her cancer diagnosis. Recognizing unusual symptoms helped save her life. First, Sharolyn noticed an ache in her abdomen that didn't go away. In fact, it got worse. When she started feeling nauseated, too, she called her doctor. Tests showed she had ovarian cancer.
"Almost no one thought I would survive the initial cancer for six months," Sharolyn said. "But here I am 33 years later."
Teresa, a former college administrator from Illinois, noticed an abnormal bump and thought it was just an ingrown hair and nothing to worry about. Still, she asked her doctor about it. She was shocked to learn she had vulvar cancer. After treatment, her long-term prognosis is good.
"I'd much rather be embarrassed and alive than modest and dead," Teresa said. Her cancer was caused by a strain of the human papilloma virus (HPV). She now talks to young women and their parents about vaccination to prevent HPV, which is also linked to cervical and vaginal cancers.
Signs and symptoms differ for each of the gynecologic cancers, and not all women experience every sign. To learn more about gynecologic cancers and their symptoms, call 1-800-CDC-INFO or visit the Inside Knowledge: Get the Facts About Gynecologic Cancer campaign website (www.cdc.gov/cancer/knowledge). You can also learn more from women who have survived gynecologic cancer, and share your own story.

Five Reasons to Make a Career in Fitness
(BPT) - Imagine waking up early on a Monday morning with a smile on your face. You're excited to get the week started because you love what you do. Or how about taking a Tuesday afternoon all to yourself, without having to ask permission and use your precious vacation time? It might sound like a dream, but with a career in fitness, it could be your reality.
A career in fitness is not only flexible, but financially rewarding, and caters to a variety of personalities. The fitness industry is booming, so there's plenty of opportunities to grow and be successful with your very own business. If you've been on the fence about a career in the fitness industry, here are some reasons that might convince you to finally make the switch.
Make a living by helping others.
"I love nothing more than using the research based, scientifically proven approach I have learned through my education to help others accomplish their goals," says Heather Esterline, a graduate of Life Time Academy, a professional fitness trainer program that lets you step into the industry and build upon your career goals. Working in the fitness industry is highly rewarding as you help people improve their health. You have the opportunity to be an important mentor and trusted friend in every client's life.
See tangible results when working with clients.
As you work with clients and watch them reach their goals, you can see the results of your knowledge and expertise. Whether you're helping someone lose weight, gain muscle or simply learn the benefits of a healthy lifestyle, you'll be rewarded as each client continues to make progress.
Choose your specialty.
Whether you want to be a personal trainer, group fitness instructor, yoga teacher or even a health club owner, you have the chance to choose your focus. No matter how you want to enter the fitness industry, there's a class or program to pave your path. Life Time Fitness' personal training certification program offers several different courses and passes to help you earn the credentials you need to get your career off the ground.
The Life Time Academy has two different certification courses that start on October 17 - the Premier and Elite Certification courses. During the Elite Professional Fitness Trainer Courses, participants not only become certified throughout the 24-week course, but also get hands on experience during an externship consisting of 120 hours, altogether equaling 260 contact hours. If learning the foundations of personal training and corrective exercise is more of your interest, the Premier Professional Fitness Trainer Course may be better for you, lasting 16 weeks and 120 contact hours.
Work with a variety of people in many places.
When you have a career in fitness, you're not sitting in an office, having meetings with the same coworkers every day. From personal trainer to health club owner, there are so many opportunities for working in this field. You can be self-employed, work with a team or even establish your own business and employ a staff. Whether you want to work indoors or out, choose your environment, your schedule and enjoy a healthy work/life balance.
It's one of the fastest growing careers.
Positive vibes and low stress make personal training one of the top rated professions by CNN Money Magazine. And it doesn't take long for your personal training career to skyrocket. For example, Jason Sweetnam, personal trainer and team weight loss instructor for Life Time Fitness, was 250 pounds and living an unhealthy lifestyle when he decided to begin his fitness journey. He decided to improve his health and is now a working full-time helping others get their fitness and nutrition on track.
Are you looking for a career change that allows you to be passionate about your work? If any of these reasons speak to you, then it might be time to break into the fitness industry
