Affluent Women And Their Cash Concerns
|
|
So, why are wealthy men not just as worried about their finances as their wives appear to be? One theory is that women simply live longer than men, making it more practical for them to have these types of concerns. If this is the case, women are probably worried about making their money last, stretching the dollar for as long after retirement as possible.

Will Taxing Soda And Pizza Solve The Obesity Epidemic?
|
|
Individuals taking part in the study consumed 7 percent less calories from soda and 12 less from pizza when prices were up. This led the team to believe that if there was something more substantial, like an 18 percent tax on these foods then we would see people's daily calorie intake go down by about 56 calories. That would add up to a weight loss of about 5 pounds per person per year.

Can A Woman Coach Football?
|
|
Keith Bulluck, 10-year NFL veteran, posted a comment to his Twitter account in response to Randolph being named a high school football coach. Bulluck wrote, "not saying it can't be done or shouldn't be done. Football is clearly a man's sport and it's to be seen how young men take to their coach being a woman." Bulluck clearly doesn't have much faith in the notion of a woman sharing in "his" sport.
