A matter of gravity
Article Abstract:
Gravity is a weak force compared with electromagnetism and nuclear forces, though this weakness could be an illusion, according to University of California, Berkeley's Arkani-Hamed. He argues that there may be more dimensions than the usual four, the three spatial dimensions and fourth of time. Gravity may exercise its force in other dimensions, and could be gradually disappearing. This could also mean that the universe is disappearing into another dimension.

Article Abstract:
A report by Britain's Audit Commission reveals that while putting health care funds in the hands on the doctors themselves has led to some efficiencies, they are not enough to make up for administrative costs. The idea of decentralizing health care is a good idea and need more time to work out problems.
