Adopt from a Shelter
If you think you could adopt a puppy or dog, and give it a chance at a better life, go to your local
shelter and talk with the staff Pet breeders have only one goal in mind – to raise large quantities of
purebred animals for profit. They have also been pilloried for misdeeds such as overbreeding,
inbreeding, poor veterinary oversight, lousy food and living conditions, overcrowding, and culling
of unwanted animals. Why buy when you can adopt one of the 70,000 puppies and kittens born
every day only in the United States? Love knows no pedigree. Check out www.petfinder.com or
contact your local animal shelter to find your perfect match.

3. As G-20 Summit Nears, China Is Unlikely to Budge on Currency the idea of “rebalancing”
the world economy is simple. Before the financial crisis, some advanced countries (led by the
United States) were overspending, and some poorer countries (led by China) were over saving. The
two offset each other. The big spenders ran large trade deficits, and the big savers ran large trade
surpluses. Now, the financial crisis has dampened the overspending. If the big savers do not
increase their spending, the world economy faces prolonged slow growth. […]

5. TIME Heathland Study: Breast-Feeding Moms Get Just as Much (or Little) Rest as
Formula-Feeders.
Having a baby is the equivalent of deciding that an uninterrupted night’s sleep is overrated. But
mothers hoping to get a little more shut-eye by formula-feeding should put that notion to bed. It is
just not true, according to a new study in the December issue of Pediatrics published online
Monday. No matter whether moms breast-fed, formula-fed or did a combination of both, they got
the same amount of sleep and considered themselves equally exhausted. Score one for the
breastfeeding advocates, who hope this study gives women on the fence another reason to commit
to breast-feeding, which conveys well-documented health benefits for baby — and mother. The
American Academy of Pediatrics recommends babies be exclusively breast-fed for six months and
continue to receive breast milk for at least a year. […]

7. Tango to Tone A dance class can be better than aerobic exercise. It encourages balance,
develops muscle tone and strength, and helps you to meet people and have fun. Most people think
of dancing as too enjoyable (or too embarrassing) to be considered a workout. However, it is
actually a great aerobic activity, and the fact that it is fun makes it more likely you stick with it.
Even if you have two left feet, you can still dance your way to a healthier heart and mind. One of
the greatest benefits of dancing is to your cardiovascular system. This heart-healthy activity
can burn just as many calories as walking, swimming, or riding a bicycle. A study presented at the
2006 American Heart Association’s Scientific Sessions found patients with chronic heart
disease benefited more from dancing than other kinds of aerobic activity.[…]

8. Whales Suffer Effects of Sunburn the Sun’s rays burn whales’ skin, researchers say.
The Sun’s rays can “burn” whales’ skin, just like they can damage human skin, according to a team
of researchers. The scientists studied more than 150 whales in the Gulf of California. By taking
photographs and skin samples, the US and Mexico-based team found the whales had blisters that
were caused by sun damage. The team was interested in the effects of increasing levels of
ultraviolet (UV) radiation on Wildlife. Laura Martinez-Leaser, from the Zoological Society of
London (ZSL) and Queen Mary University of London led the study. She explained that whales
were a good model for this because “they need to come to the surface to breathe air, to socialize and
to feed their young, meaning that they are frequently exposed to the full force of the sun”. In
humans, sunburn is produced when DNA is damaged by UV radiation; a similar response appeared
to be occurring in the whales.[…]
