Right now, Americans aren’t getting enough exercise. According to Fed Stats, a government statistical web site, 66.3 percent of American adults over 20 are overweight or obese. Just as Harvard, recognizing the AIDS epidemic, encourages students to practice safe sex, it should also recognize an obesity epidemic, and fight the “Freshman 15”—which may well be where the epidemic starts...
...heart. The key appears to be an antioxidant called resveratrol found in grape skins (and, in fact, grape juice seems to be just as effective if not as much fun). Now researchers at Harvard Medical School and the National Institute on Aging say that high doses of resveratrol fed to obese mice seemed to prevent problems usually seen in chubby rodents (and people), including diabetes, liver damage and premature death. But you would need more than 100 glasses of wine a day to get that much resveratrol. And even if you took it in supplement form, there's no proof...
...Pusar.The Mountain Hawks did not go away, however, as they answered Harvard’s run by outscoring the hosts 16-4 over the next seven minutes.

...United States, written with the great economist Anna Jacobson Schwartz, Friedman said it was horrifying incompetence by the government, specifically the Federal Reserve, that had caused and prolonged the Depression. He showed in minute detail how failures of monetary policy--occasionally motivated by the anti-Semitism of some Fed governors--had created catastrophe from what could have been a short recession. This analysis was so powerful that it revitalized the monetarist school of economic thought: that the supply of money greatly affects not only prices but economic output. It redeemed the free market...
