Leave It to the Japanese... |
 The Japanese aren't exactly the most confrontational people in the world, so leave it to them to come up with something like this . . . There's a service in Japan called 'Wack-Array-Sass-Sayer' (in English it's written wakaresaseya). It means "breaker-upper." Here's how it works: You're in a lousy relationship and you want it to end ...you hire the services of the "breaker-upper" . . . they follow your husband or wife around for a while . . . and then either seduce them, or produce some other kind of incriminating evidence.

 Yesterday, the National Sleep Foundation released the results of a new study about race and sleeping habits. Here's what they found . . . According to the study, whites are most likely to be diagnosed with insomnia. And they're also most likely to blame lack of sleep for their poor job performance, and their inability to care for their family. Blacks are most likely to be diagnosed with sleep apnea. And they're also most likely to pray and have sex before bed. Hispanics are most likely to lose sleep over concerns about their job and money. And Asians are most likely to get a good night's sleep, with five in every six saying they sleep soundly at least a few nights every week. But the real travesty is that overall, roughly one in four Americans say they're so sleep-deprived that they're usually too tired to have sex.

A Congressman Wants Reagan on the $50 Bill |
 In a lot of circles, Ronald Reagan is considered a model of conservative values and policies. And some people think he's one of the greatest presidents of all time. Which explains this . . .
On Tuesday, a Republican congressman from North Carolina named Patrick McHenry proposed that Reagan should replace Ulysses S. Grant on the $50 bill.
According to McHenry, quote, "Every generation needs its own heroes. One decade into the 21st century, it's time to honor the last great president of the 20th and give President Reagan a place beside Presidents Roosevelt and Kennedy."
If you're wondering, McHenry was referring to the fact that President Roosevelt's likeness is on the dime, and Kennedy's is on the half-dollar.

There Are More People In DC With AIDS Than In Africa |
Over the past couple of decades, Americans have become less concerned about the spread of AIDS, partly because we think of it as a disease that only affects people in Africa.
But a new study in "The New England Journal of Medicine" has found that the rate of HIV and AIDS in some U.S. cities is actually worse than in so-called "global hotspots" like sub-Saharan Africa. Listen to this . . .
According to the study, more than one in 30 adults in Washington, D.C., is infected with HIV or AIDS. That's actually higher than the reported infection rates in Ethiopia, Nigeria and Rwanda.
Along those same lines, one in 40 blacks in New York City is infected with HIV or AIDS, and so are one in eight intravenous-drug users.
And according to CDC data covering STD clinics in several cities, the prevalence of HIV infection among, quote, "men who have sex with men" is as high as 30%.
Keep in mind, these stats are from STD clinics in urban areas, and a lot of times they're measuring a specific disadvantaged or high-risk group. So you can't always generalize to the larger population.
But 30% is still considerably higher than the 7.8% of all Kenyans and 16.9% of all South Africans who are infected with the virus.
According to the authors of the study, quote, "The time has come to confront this largely forgotten and hidden epidemic."

 I know it's only Wednesday, but this news is so good I just couldn't wait until the weekend to tell you.
Researchers at Chungnam National University in South Korea have discovered a new type of alcohol that won't give you a hangover.
It all has to do with adding oxygen bubbles to the alcohol, kind of like the way carbonation is added to soft drinks.
According to the researchers, alcohol that's been oxygenated is superior in two ways:
#1.) People who drink oxygenated alcohol sober-up 20 to 30 minutes faster than people who drink the same amount of regular alcohol.
#2.) And oxygenated alcohol leads to fewer and less severe hangovers than regular alcohol.
And the cherry on top is that alcohol with oxygen bubbles will get you wasted just as quickly as regular alcohol.
