38、oices in college. Hopefully, they will have fewer regrets than we do. Following are five guidelines parents can share with their college-bound kids.EDUCATION IS FIRSTAs soon as you arrive on campus, there will be competing interests. Feel free to check them out but always remember that you are there

59、and even kill you.” is the unnecessarily surprising headline in the Daily Mail. It reports on a large, complex study that-looked for any association between changes in weather and blood pressure rates.The research focused on patients at a blood pressure clinic in Glasgow and looked at two continuous
60、 visits the patients made within a 12-month period. The researchers combined these findings with Met Office weather data from the time of these visits to assess whether changes in patients blood pressure were related to changes in the weather. They found that decreases in temperature and sunshine, o
