| Huffington Post: Quit Smoking -- The Benefits Are Huge For Older Adults, Study Says Posted: 21 Feb 2013 08:22 AM PST Good news for older people who smoke: If you quit smoking, you will reap the benefits in a fairly short period of time. A new study by researchers at the German Cancer Research Center of 8,807 people between 50 and 74 found that a person slashes their risk of heart attack and stroke by more than 40 percent within the first five years after the last cigarette. "We were able to show that the risk of smokers for cardiovascular diseases is more than twice that of non-smokers," Professor Hermann Brenner said in a press release.

| Huffington Post: Tom Hanks, Broadway's New Kid Posted: 21 Feb 2013 08:23 AM PST Tom Hanks swears. Not a blue streak, no, but it's bracing to hear profanity from the man who has defined decency for three decades in Hollywood, playing white knights in "Splash," "Forrest Gump," "Apollo 13" and the "Toy Story" series.

I hate the plural form of "panty" as well. "Panties" creeps me out. Read More... |
| Huffington Post: Arne Duncan: 'There Is No Fix' To Sequestration For Ailing Schools Posted: 21 Feb 2013 08:26 AM PST WASHINGTON -- While sequestration is not a sure thing yet, school districts are already asking for help dealing with the massive, imminent cuts, U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan said Thursday morning. "I was on a call yesterday, people are starting to give RIF [reduction in force] notes," Duncan said in a meeting with reporters at the U.S. Education Department. "The sequestration stuff is very very worrying to me. I'm increasingly concerned that's going to happen. Schools are already starting to give teachers notices." Decisions would be made on a district-by-district level, and cuts could include things like slashing after-school programs, firing teachers, curtailing pre-school and shortening the school day or school year -- simply because money has run out sooner.
