  • Pentagon spent $43M on gas station in Afghanistan

    Nov 3, 2015

  • Study: As death rates fall for other Americans, they're rising for middle-aged whites

    Nov 3, 2015

    NEW YORK — The U.S. death rate has been falling for decades, but researchers have detected one group in which the rates have been steadily ticking up — middle-aged white people.

But death rates for whites 35 to 44 have been level recently, they're beginning to turn up for whites 55 to 64, and — most strikingly — death rates for whites ages 45 to 54 have risen by half a percent...
