...brochures and blog manifestos--none has. We've gotten by for so long calling this decade the 21st century--a term that will sound ridiculous in 50 years--that we might as well get started on christening the next one. Will it be the tweens? The teens? An Australian website has already suggested the One-ders. Here we go again...

...active people had the same risk of arthritis as the least active. About 9% of the participants overall developed arthritis over the course of the study, as measured by symptoms reported to their physicians (pain and difficulty walking) as well as X-ray scans. And in the same year, Australian researchers writing in the journal Arthritis and Rheumatism found that people who exercised vigorously had thicker and healthier knee cartilage than their sedentary peers. That suggests the exercisers may have also enjoyed a lower risk of osteoarthritis, which is caused by breakdown and loss of cartilage. (Read "Runner Trend: Going...

But those who are most vulnerable to influenza are children with underlying conditions such as asthma or diabetes, who may need the added boost from a second dose to protect them from complications of the flu. He notes also that previous studies of other H1N1 vaccines showed slightly weaker antibody responses in children after a single dose than the Australian shot, which suggests one dose may not be enough to effectively combat influenza in youngsters...

...What They're Naming in Australia: The decade is nearly over, and the world still hasn't reached a consensus on what to call the 2000s. But an Australian website has gotten a head start on naming the 2010s. In a contest that garnered more than 3,500 entries--including "Tenties" and Teenies"--News.com.au awarded nearly $2,000 to the person who suggested "One-ders." After the dreary decade we've suffered through, the judges said, the moniker's "bright-eyed optimism" was a welcome change...
