...really enjoy optimal health status at age 70 or higher, women should keep a healthy body weight since very young adulthood and maintain that,” said Sun, whose research was inspired by a similar study on male Japanese-Americans in Hawaii.

While shrinking summer might make fifth graders gasp in horror, it is also could be an important step in revitalizing American public schools.

"We don't feel a temptation to export our political and economic model," Lula foreign policy adviser Marco Aurélio Garcia told TIME last year. "We don't believe everyone should be like us." But at the same time, Lula is on a crusade to make Brazil, with the world's fifth largest population and ninth largest economy, a serious international player. He's stumping hard for a permanent Brazilian seat on the U.N. Security Council and more input from developing nations...
