The study, which looked at the connection between watching TV and death for 8,800 Australian adults, found that each hour of TV-viewing was associated with an 11 percent increased risk of death from any cause, and an 18 percent increased risk of death from cardiovascular disease. These findings held true even after the researchers took into account other factors that could raise the risk of dying, such as age, gender, waist circumference and exercise habits. While the study included only Australians, the findings likely apply to Americans, who spend even more time watching TV, the researchers said. The results could also apply to any sedentary activity - yes including sitting in front of a computer all day - not just TV-watching. And skinny people could be victims as well, the researchers say. Fat Butts May Be Healthy http://news.yahoo.com/s/livescience/20100112/sc_livescience/fatbuttsmaybehealthy;_ylt=AlMFHl_jb_f1YTiFyjFkxzCs0NUE;_ylu=X3oDMTFpYzFuOWJ0BHBvcwMzNQRzZWMDYWNjb3JkaW9uX21vc3RfcG9wdWxhcgRzbGsDZmF0YnV0dHNtYXli Having junk in your trunk is healthier than a spare tire around the gut, new research suggests. The extra padding on the backside and thighs could even help to protect against disease. The results come from a review that summarizes various studies on the health effects of different fat stores in the body, particularly around the hips and thighs. "The fact that body fat's distribution is quite important for your health has been known for some time now," said lead researcher Konstantinos Manolopoulos of the University of Oxford in England. But this new article summarizes a body of research showing that such hip and thigh fat can help to reduce the risk of diabetes and heart disease. The review also suggests a mechanism for conveying those benefits. New speed cameras enrage Arizona drivers http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/6964400/New-speed-cameras-enrage-Arizona-drivers.html An attempt to introduce UK-style fixed speed cameras in America has ended in a public revolt, with motorists binning speeding tickets worth $90 million (£60 million). Speed camera: New speed cameras enrage Arizona drivers Many Americans regard the speed cameras as an unconstitutional tax collection method and have flatly refused to pay the fines. The Arizona scheme, which was the first statewide effort to bring speed camera enforcement to the US, is now on the verge of bankruptcy and could be dumped. Many Americans, including judges and elected officials, regard the devices as an unconstitutional tax collection method and have flatly refused to pay the fines, the Times reports. . . . . And much more.
