The waxy skins of grapes contain chemicals called saponins, also found in olive oil and soybeans, that researchers believe may lower cholesterol. Grapes, especially those grown in cooler climates, also contain resveratrol, which may play a role in longevity. The chemical has been shown in the lab to prolong the life of yeast by 70%, and it mimics the effects of a low-calorie diet, which can extend life span, at least in rodents, 30% to 50%. Scientists...

I have wasted many hours taking the car to several respected service shops, including the dealer. Anyone want to buy my Passat...
...military likes fuel cells because they can help free a vehicle from dependence on vulnerable supply lines, cut fuel consumption 20% and generate enough hydrogen to be self-sufficient in electrical power for up to five hours with the engine turned off. Fuel cells are also quieter and cooler than traditional portable generators and therefore are harder for the enemy to detect. "Aside from the need for additional power, we occasionally need to go into what's called silent watch," says an Army official at the Tank-Automotive and Armaments Command in Warren, Mich., who requested anonymity.
