Marriage Linked With Better Sleep Marriage may improve your sleep, and better sleep may improve your marriage, two new studies suggest. Women who are married or who have stable partners appear to sleep better than women who have never married or lost a panner, according to research from an eight - year study presented at the Associated Professional Sleep Societies annual meeting. They also found that marital (婚姻的)happiness lowers the risk of sleep problems, while marital conflict heightens the risk. Although married women overall slept more soundly than unmarried women, the researchers, from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, did identify a "newlywed" effect. Women who were single at the start of the study but gained a partner had more restless sleep than women who were akeady married. The researchers speculated that newly married women were less adjusted to sleeping with their partner than those who had been married longer. The study included 360 middle - aged African--American, Caucasian and Chinese. American women who had taken part in the Study of Women’ s Health Across the Nation. Researchers used in--home sleep studies, activity monitors to track sleep--wake patterns and relationship histories to look at the effect stable marriages, unstable marriages and marital transitions, such as a divorce, had on sleep. Another small study of 29 couples found that on a daily basis, the quality of a couple’ s relationship and the quality of their sleep are closely linked. In that study, from the University of Arizona, 29 heterosexual (异性的) couples who shared a bed and did not have children completed sleep and relationship diaries for a week. The results showed that when men get better sleep, they are more likely to feel positive about their relationship the next day. And for women, problems in the relationship were Strongly associated with poor sleep for both themselves and their partner. "When we look at the data on a day - by - day basis, there seems to be a vicious cycle in which sleep affects next day relationship functioning, and relationship functioning affects the subsequent night’s sleep," said principal investigator Brant Hasler, a clinical psychology doctoral candidate at the University of Arizona, in a press release. "In this cycle, conflict with one’ s partner during the day leads to worse sleep that night, which leads to more conflict the following day. " The data from both studies suggest that sleep and relationship happiness are closely linked. The lesson for couples, especially those who are struggling with problems, is that paying attention to sleep habits may help solve other issues in the relationship. Researchers used in - home sleep studies, activity monitors to track sleep - wake patterns and relationship histories to

The grid computing is a new (66) technology connecting the distributed and (67) resources to the high-speed network and integrating a super-computer of processing capacity. The significance and architecture of the grid computing is explained. Several kernel technology such as OGSI, resource management, task management, task scheduling, high rate communication and security are described. Aiming at the particularity of the grid computing environment a mechanism similar to the technology of the search engine is designed to registry, discovery and (68) the resources in the grid. The whole model of the resource management is built by connecting task manager in the local resource management system to others with P2P model. The task may migrate among the task managers in order to (69) the load. The task users summit may be executed in relatively tight resource set, which will not only decrease the total communication overheads of the whole task but also (70) the performance of the system. （68）处填（）。
3.Born to be Big In 2006 scientists at the Harvard School of Public Health reported that the prevalence of obesity (肥胖) in infants under 6 months had risen 73 percent since 1980. "This epidemic of obese 6 - month - olds," as Robert Lustig of the University of California, San Francisco, calls it, poses a problem for conventional explanations of the fattening of America. "Since they’ re eating only formula (配方奶) or breast milk, and never exactly got a lot of exercise, the obvious explanations for obesity don’t work for babies," he points out. "You have to look beyond the obvious. " The search for the non - obvious has led to an early - life exposure to Paces of chemicals in the environment. Evidence has been steadily accumulating that certain hormone - mimicking pollutants (污染物质), ubiquitous (到处存在的) in the food chain, have two previously effects. They act on genes in the developing fetus (胎儿) and newborn to turn more precursor (前体) cells into fat cells, which stay with you for life. And they may alter metabolic (新陈代谢的) rate, so that the body saves calories rather than burning them. "The evidence now emerging says that being overweight is not just the result of personal choices about what you eat, combined with inactivity," says Retha Newbold of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS). " Exposure to environmental chemicals during development may he contributing to the obesity epidemic. "They are not the cause of extra pounds in every person who is overweight but environmental chemicals may well account for a good part of the current epidemic, especially in those under 50. The new thinking about obesity comes at a critical time politically. As the debate over health care shines a light on the country’s unsustainable spending on doctors, hospitals, and drugs, the obese make tempting scapegoats (替罪羊). About 60 percent of Americans are overweight or obese, and their health - care costs are higher: $3,400 in annual spending for a normal- weight adult versus $ 4,870 for an obese adult, mostly due to their higher levels of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and other conditions. If those outsize costs inspire greater efforts to prevent and treat obesity, fine. But if they lead to demonizing (妖魔化) the obese - caricaturing (画成漫画讽刺) them as lazy pigs raising insurance premiums (保险费) for the rest of us -that’ s a problem, and not only for ethical reasons: it threatens to obscure (使不明显) that one potent cause of weight gain may be largely beyond an individual’s control. Conventional explanations of the fattening of America can also work for obese babies.

The Anti- Alcohol Campaign Tries in Russia Last week Russian President Dmitry Medvedev kicked off a new anti - alcohol campaign aimed at cutting the nation’s per capita consumption of alcohol by nearly a quarter by 2012. Russians currently drink about 18 liters (19 quarts) a year, more than double the 8 liters (8.4 quarts) deemed safe by the World Health Organization (WHO). With each additional liter, adds the WHO, men can subtract 11 months from their average life expectancy. The latest move consists of three parts: a media campaign, restrictions on beer consumption, and strict penalties for selling to minors. Russian officials plan to set up more than 500 health centers by the end of the year, complete with Soviet - era tactics like drawings of cimlosis (肝硬化) - stricken livers on their walls. Even with such aggressive measures, it’ s hardly the most ambitious campaign Russians has ever launched against drinking. Former leader Mikhail Gorbachev got alcohol sales to decline by 60 percent. Three years ago, a group of young Russians organized a sort of Vigilante (治安维持会成员)vice squad to single out and shame merchants who sold alcohol to minors. Supported by the Moscow city administration, the Solar Circle movement, as they called themselves, held rallies, and slapped leaflets on the shop doors of guilty establishments. They piqued (激起，激发) media interest at first, but the momentum soon fizzled (渐停，夭折). Some critics say that, while admirable: it hardly addresses the biggest culprit of all: vodka. "The main problem is the availability of hard liquor," says Aleksandr Nemtsov, a top Russian expert on alcohol policy. Some 70 percent of alcohol consumption in Russia is of the hard stuff, primarily vodka. One attempt, tried in the mid - 1990s, substituted beer as a less intoxicating non - liquor alternative. Instead, "beer has become a gateway opening the way to alcoholism for teenagers," says Oleg Zykov, a member of the Public Chamber. The earlier people start down that route, the more likely they are to end up grappling with (尽力解决) alcoholism problems later. Still, for now, Russians seem to support the government’ s new approach. As the National Center for the Study of Public Opinion reported last week, 65 percent of the population say they are in favor of the new measures - especially those that restrict alcohol sales to those under 21. (Right now, the drinking age is 18. ) What description about the Solar Circle movement is right
