    Men More Likely to Have Problems with Memory and Thinking Skills
    When it comes to remembering things, new research shows men are more
likely than women to have mild cognitive impairment, the transition stage
before dementia. These findings will be presented at the American Academy of
Neurology Annual Meeting in Chicago.  The study found men were one-and-a-half
times more likely to have mild cognitive impairment than women. The finding
remained the same regardless of a man's education or marital status.

    One in Thirty-three Homeowners Projected to Be in Foreclosure Within the
Next Two Years
    One in thirty-three homeowners is projected to be in foreclosure over the
next two years, as a result of subprime loans made in 2005 and 2006, according
to a new report released today by The Pew Charitable Trusts. In some states,
the outlook is especially grim; for instance, nearly one in eleven homeowners
in Nevada is projected to be in foreclosure and one in eighteen Arizona
homeowners may face the same circumstance over the next two years.  Homeowners
being foreclosed upon may not be the only homeowners affected, according to
data cited in the report. An additional forty million neighboring homeowners
may see their property values and their municipalities' tax bases drop by as
much as three hundred and fifty-six billion dollars over the same period.

    Number of Honey Bee Colonies Continues to Decline in the U.S.
    Honey bees in the U-S, responsible for pollinating more than one hundred
different crops worth fifteen billion dollars annually, continue to experience
population decreases as evidenced by a study commissioned by Apiary Inspectors
of America. The A-I-A commissioned the survey of U-S beekeepers to estimate
colony losses across the country between September 2007 and 2008. Nearly
thirteen percent of the country's estimated two-point-four million colonies
were surveyed and a thirty-six percent overall loss of managed honey bee
colonies was recorded. This equates to fourteen percent more total losses
compared to last year.
