Going to bed earlier protects teenagers against depression and suicidal thoughts, New York research suggests. Of 15, 500 12 to 18-year-olds studied, those who went to bed after midnight were 24% more likely to have depression than those who went before 2200. And those who slept fewer than five hours a night had a 71% higher risk of depression than those who slept eight hours, the journal Sleep reports. It is estimated 80, 000 UK children and young people have depression. The researchers from Columbia University Medical Center in New York looked at data from 15, 500 teenagers collected in the 1990s.

Ad Classified advertising is a form of advertising which is particularly common in newspapers, online and other periodicals, e.g. free ads papers or Pennysavers. Classified advertising differs from standard advertising or business models in that it allows private individuals (not simply companies or corporate entities) to solicit sales for products and services. Classified advertising is usually text-only and can consist of as little as the type of item being sold and a telephone number to call for more information. It can also have much more detail, such as name to contact, address to contact or visit, a detailed description of the product or products (“pants and sweaters, size 10″ as opposed to “clothing”, “red 1996 Pontiac Grand Prix” as opposed to “automobile”). There are generally no pictures or other graphics within the advertisement, although sometimes a logo may be used.

What if you could look behind the headlines of the global economy to see how it really worked? Now you can. In Connected: 24 Hours in the Global Economy, Daniel Altman teaches us how the billions of decisions made by individuals can and do change the future. Connected is part travel guide, part owner’s manual—-an absorbing, accessible, and essential road map for every citizen of the global economy in the twenty-first century. Publishers Weekly Altman’s overview of the world’s economic workings is useful and informative, though surprisingly dutiful considering the author’s promise of a “whirlwind tour.” Moving briskly between topics—pegged to an hour-by-hour timeline gimmick—he discusses many concepts: exchange rates, trade deficits, international deals, currency markets, corruption, financial derivatives, technological innovation, the importance of oil. While addressing the outsized role of the U.S., Altman offers valuable glimpses of key foreign economies and leaves us with a solid understanding of how they fit into “the world trading system.” “If you want to cope with connectedness, ” journalist Altman writes, “you have to be as connected as you can—in other words, you have to pay attention to what’s happening in the rest of the world.” Granted, anyone who’s already paying attention will find much of the book’s information somewhat remedial.
