Wiser and
4
older
Sometimes the world of science and medicine produces something that can only be
described as
1
unalloyed good news. We are used to stories about pollution scares and
increases in the rates of cancer, but bubbling beneath is the stark reality that we live at a time
when humans are healthier and
5
live longer than at any time in our history.
The Office for National Statistics figures, recently released, make heartening if
surprising reading. They show that
2
most men are surviving until the age of 85, while women are
living four years longer. Furthermore, we can expect these figures to increase as the century
progresses. What's driving this extraordinary increase in human
6
longevity?
The increase has been driven by a number of advances. Firstly, the huge reduction in
neonatal and infant deaths. These days, nearly all babies born in a prosperous advanced nation
can expect to survive into adulthood. Over half the couples in the world are having fewer than
two children each. This is partly because almost everywhere infant mortality is falling, globally
faster today than at any time in human history.
Sanitation, vaccination and better diets have increased lifespans once we survive
infancy, but they cannot wholly explain why people are living into their eighties and beyond. A
cut in physical stress and a huge reduction in exposure to toxic and carcinogenic substances in
the environment may explain much of the increase. n the 1950s, thousands died or became
very ill during the London smogs. That threat, along with numerous other environmental
containments, has gone. We have also begun to stop smoking and we are drinking less, too.
Finally, life is much safer than it used to be. As psychologist Steven Pinker shows in his
book, The better angels of our nature, the history of all societies has shown an amazing decline
in violence over the past century. We are ten times less likely to be murdered today than we
were two hundred years ago, and three times less likely to be killed on the roads than we were
in the 1960s.
So, can the increase in longevity continue? According to gerontologists, there is no
clear answer. Currently the maximum human lifespan is 122 years, attained by the French
woman Jeanne Calment who died in 1997. Significantly, no one has come close to her
astonishing record. nstead, more and more of us are dodging the bullets of middle age and
living to our personal genetic potential. So how long is the natural human lifespan? The answer
seems to be that, in a world where infectious diseases are kept at bay and where we are safe
from predators and starvation, and provided we keep our lifestyles in check,
3
most people
should reach 80 or 90.
Something very big is going on, wrote Ban Ki-moon, the United Nations secretary
general. He warned that "the social and economic implications of this phenomenon are
profound, extending far beyond the individual
7
older person and the immediate family, touching
broader society and the global community in unprecedented ways. What the figures show more
than anything is that we need a rapid and radical rethink of how we treat
8
the elderly among us,
as they will soon be the majority.

President Obama Launches Gun-io!ence "ask Force
Five days after deadliest elementary school shooting in U.S. history, President Obama
said his administration plans immediate action early next year on proposals to curb an
"epidemic of gun violence. At a morning news conference, Obama announced the formation of
a task force to be headed by Vice President Joe Biden that will formulate a package of policy

excuse for doing nothing, Obama said. "The fact that we can't prevent every act of violence
doesn't mean that we can't steadily reduce the violence and prevent the very worst violence.
The president said he intends to push for implementation of the proposals without delay. "This
is a team that has a very specific task to pull together real reforms right now, he said.
While Obama did not offer specifics, he suggested the task force would examine an
array of steps to curb gun violence and prevent mass shootings, including legislative measures,
mental health resources and a "look more closely at a culture that all-too-often glorifies guns
and violence. " will use all the powers of this office to help advance efforts aimed at preventing
more tragedies like this, Obama said.
Obama made similar pronouncements following at least four other mass shootings that

Rocio and her son, now 17 and in high school, moved from Ecuador in 2003, when
times were good and jobs plentiful in Spain. But then the global financial crisis hit, bringing
Spain's economy' down, Rocio lost her two jobs in a shop, and as a cleaner. For a while,

Rocio's story is echoed by others all over Spain. t is this fear that took many Spanish
citizen to action. Many of those people who are outside the door of Rocio's apartment block are
supporter of "Stop Desahucios (Stop Evictions), part of the Platform of People Affected by

banks and authorities from eviction because of the country's economic crisis. They accuse the
banks and authorities o 'real estate terrorism.
There are also the mass marches of the 15-M movement also known as the
"ndignados. Activist Dante Scherma, 24, says citizens were not used to speaking out on
political issues. "The 15-M movement made people talk about social issues, and about politics
in normal conversations - in cafs, restaurants, bars where before they only talked about
football or fashion.
Back in Vicalvaro, the moment of truth has arrived, but the crowd now shouting at the
police, insisting they have to stop forcing families to leave their properties appears to have
had an impact. Lawyers from the PAH explain that Rocio will be able to stay for a while, at
least. For those working to stop Spain's eviction epidemic, today has seen a small and
temporary victory. For those demonstrating about cuts, corruption and lack of cash, the protests
will go on.

A significant area of interest within the US Army empirical literature on leadership is
emotional ntelligence (E), which in recent years has been the focus of considerable attention in
relationship to leadership efficacy. Emotional intelligence nvolves an awareness of one's own
emotions as well as the ability to control them, social awareness of others and their emotions,
and the capacity to understand and manage relationship and social networks.
n understanding others' emotions, an important contributing factor to the success of the
more effective military officers is their ability to empathize with their subordinates. n discussing
empathy, EM (Field Manual) 6-22 defines it as "the ability to see something from another
person's point of view, to identify with and enter into another person's feelings and emotions.
Empathy is not typically a quality that most soldiers would readily identify as an essential
characteristic to effective leadership or necessary to producing positive organizational
outcomes, but it is an important quality for competent leadership, especially as it relates to E.

To live the longest and healthiest life possible, get smarter. nstitute for Health Metrics
and Evaluation (HME) data show that past a certain threshold, health and wealth are just
weakly correlated. However, overall health is closely tied to how many years people spend in
school. Mexico, for instance, has a fifth the per capita gross domestic product (GDP) of the
United States, but, for women, more than 50 percent of the latter's schooling.
n line with the trend, Mexico's female adult mortality rate is only narrowly higher.
Vietnam and Yemen have roughly equivalent per capita GDP. Yet Vietnamese women average
6.3 more years in school and are half as likely to die between the ages of 15 and 60. "Economic
growth is also significantly associated with child mortality reductions, but the magnitude of the
association is much smaller than that of increased education, comments Emmanuela Gakidou,
HME's director of education and training. "One year of schooling gives you about 10 percent

+rchaeo!ogists use drones to study Peru,s ruins
To get a bird's-eye view of ancient sites, archaeologists often turn to planes, helicopters
and even hot air balloons. But today researchers have access to more agile and less expensive
technology to map, explore and protect archaeological treasures: tiny airborne drones.
n Peru the home of Machu Picchu and other amazing ruins the government is
planning to purchase several drones to
5
quickly and cheaply conduct archaeological surveys in
areas targeted for building or development, according to Reuters.
Archaeologists working in the country have already been using small flying robots to
study
4
ancient sites, including the colonial Andean town Machu Llacta, and the San Jos de
Moro burial grounds, which contain the tombs of Moche priestesses. Some researchers have
even built their own drones for less than $ 2,000, Reuters reported.
"t's like having a scalpel instead of a club," Jeffrey Quilter, an archaeologist at Harvard
University, told the news agency. "You can control it to a very fine degree. You can go up 3
meters and photograph a room, 300 meters and photograph a
3
site, or you can go up 3,000
meters and photograph the entire valley."
6
Cheap and effective drones could be a boon for Peru's culture ministry, which has a
modest budget and is tasked with protecting more than 13,000 archaeological sites that are
threatened by looters, squatters and illegal mining, according to Reuters.
Elsewhere robots have
1
enabled archaeological discovery. A remote-controlled robot the
size of a
2
lawn mower recently found burial chambers inside the Temple of the Feathered
Serpent, an ancient pyramid in Mexico. And in Russia, researchers used a miniature airborne
drone to capture images that could be used to create a 3-D model of an ancient burial mound.

Scientists from the University of Warwick in the UK have revealed a new method to cut
the amount of fat in chocolate in half while keeping all the taste.
Here's the problem with chocolate what makes it velvety and smooth in the mouth is
exactly what ends up elsewhere fat. Low-fat versions disappoint because it's difficult to
replace the tiny globules of fat with anything else that disperses within the chocolate and
maintains its texture.
The trick, it seems, is to use agar a widely available jelling agent. Thoroughly
blended bits of it, the researchers say, act as tiny sponges that soak up any liquid fruit juice,
plain water, even alcohol.
Stefan Bon, who led the research, said that the method opens up whole new markets
for chocolate, and that additives such as fruit juice could further increase chocolate's health
credentials. He says: "t would both lower fat content and sugar content, so for people that just
have a craving and just want to down a bar of 200g, 20 you take half the amount of fat in, so it's
great.

Paris, 1925. World War had finished and the city was full of people with cash looking
for business opportunities. Victor Lustig was reading the newspaper one day and found an
article about the Eiffel Tower. t said the tower was being neglected because it was too
expensive to maintain. Lustig a great 'business opportunity' he would sell the Eiffel Tower!
Lustig wrote to six important businessmen in the city and invited them to a secret
meeting in a well-known Paris hotel. He said he was a government official and he told them that
he wanted to talk about a business deal. All six of the businessmen came to the meeting.
At the meeting, Lustig told them that the city wanted to sell the Eiffel Tower for scrap
metal and that he had been asked to find a buyer. He said that the deal was secret because it
would not be popular with the public. The businessmen believed him, perhaps the Eiffel Tower
was never planned to be permanent. t had been built as part of the 1889 Paris Expo, and the
original plan had been to remove it in 1909.
Lustig rented a limousine and took the men to visit the tower. After the tour, he said that
if they were interested, they should contact him the next day. Lustig told them he would give the
tower contract to the person with the highest offer. One of the dealers, Andre Poisson, was very
interested, but he was also worried. Why was Lustig in such a hurry?
The two men had a meeting, and Lustig confessed that he wasn't looking for the highest
offer. He said he would give the contract to anybody for a price. Poisson understood: Lustig
wanted a little extra money "under the table for himself. This was Lustig's cleverest lie, because
now Poisson believed him completely.
Lustig sold Poisson a false contract for the Eiffel Tower and on top of that, Poisson
paid him a little extra money "under the table. Lustig put all the money in a suitcase and took
the first train to Vienna. Poisson never told the police what had happened he was too
embarrassed. After a month, Lustig returned to Paris and tried to sell the Eiffel Tower again, but
this time somebody told the police and he had to escape to America. There, he continued his
criminal career and finished his days in the famous Alcatraz prison.

/nited States "hanksgi*ing
n a 1789 proclamation, President George Washington called on the people of the
United States to acknowledge God for affording them "an opportunity peaceably to establish a
form of government for their safety and happiness by observing a day of thanksgiving. Devoting
a day to "public thanksgiving and prayer, as Washington called it, became a yearly tradition in
many communities.
Thanksgiving became a national holiday in 1863. n that year, during the Civil War,
Abraham Lincoln made his Thanksgiving Day Proclamation. He asked his fellow citizens "to set
apart and observe the last Thursday of November next as a day of thanksgiving and praise...
t was not until 1941 that Congress designated the fourth Thursday in November as
Thanksgiving Day, thus creating a federal holiday.
However official, the idea of a special day for giving thanks was not born of presidential
proclamations. Native American harvest festivals had been celebrated for centuries, and
colonial services dated back to the late 16th century. Thanksgiving Day, as we know it today,
began in the early 1600s when settlers in both Massachusetts and Virginia came together to
give thanks for their survival, for the fertility of their fields, and for their faith. The most widely
known early Thanksgiving is that of the Pilgrims in Plymouth, Massachusetts, who feasted for 3
days with the Wampanoag people in 1621.
Turkey has become the traditional Thanksgiving fare because at one time it was a rare
treat. During the 1830s, an eight-to-ten-pound bird cost a day's wage. Even though turkeys are

Napoleon once said, apparently. 'Let China sleep because when she wakes she'll
