Study: 1 in 5 US teenagers has slight hearing loss
CHICAGO (AP) – A stunning one in five teens has lost a little bit of hearing, and the problem has increased substantially in recent years, a new national study has found. Some experts are urging teenagers to turn down the volume on their digital music players, suggesting loud music through earbuds may be to blame — although hard evidence is lacking. They warn that slight hearing loss can cause …

    It's hard to know unless you know more about the genes. It could be a dominant trait that was passed to you but not your siblings, or a recessive trait that your siblings would have, too, but is not obvious in them. My sister has something that my grandmother has, but no one else does – not mt grandmother's siblings, my dad's siblings OR any of my other siblings or my cousins. DNA can be strange like that so it really is hard to tell who may or may not have certain genetic traits.

    “When people say to you: hey, shape up! Stop thinking only about your troubles. What’s to be depressed about? Go swimming or play tennis and you’ll feel a lot better. Pull up your socks! And how you, hearing this, would like nothing more than to remove one of those socks and choke them to death with it.”

    This month, in the Mojave Desert, a company called BrightSource plans to break ground on a revolutionary new type of solar power plant. It’s going to put about a thousand people to work building a state-of-the-art facility. And when it’s complete, it will turn sunlight into the energy that will power up to 140,000 homes – the largest such plant in the world. Not in China. Not in India. But in California. There’s something depressing about hearing the President of the United States touting a “revolutionary,” “state-of-the-art facility” as “not in China. Not in India. But in California,” but that’s what Barack Obama did in his weekly address this morning. As bona fide California Baby Boomer, I remember watching satellites and rockets blast off before I headed off to class almost every year in elementary school. So common were these morning launches it became routine–Gemini, Apollo, whatever. It’s a measure of how far we’ve come that a solar power plant–a great thing, mind you–is held…

    A criminal trial is usually run by the state or county.

    A criminal trial presents evidence as to why someone broke a law.

    A criminal trial is decided by the votes of twelve jurors.

    A supreme court hearing is not about whether someone broke the law, but about whether
    a) the law they broke is unconstitutional; or
    b) a previous judges' interpretation of the law is incorrect.

    In a supreme court hearing the lawyers file briefs supporting their stance and, upon reading the briefs, the justices ask questions of the lawyers to explain parts of the briefs.

    New Year resolutions appear to relate to a bygone age as embattled consumers struggle to make ends meet amid global macro-economic uncertainty. Yet the companies that thrive on people’s virtuous weight loss intentions following their over-exuberance during the festive season face contrasting fortunes. In today’s environment, perhaps people are keen to take control of one the few aspects in life they can influence – their weight and health.
