| Many vets with PTSD prescribed opioid painkillers Posted: NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars who are treated for pain are more likely to get very strong painkillers if they also have mental health problems, including post-traumatic stress disorder, according to a new study. That's worrisome, researchers said, because some people who take opioids -- which include OxyContin and Vicodin -- abuse the drugs or overdose on them, and those who already have mental troubles may be most at risk. "There's really been a culture of, 'Let's get rid of pain,' and I think unfortunately that pendulum may have swung too far," said ... |
| Obama: US will not stay in Afghanistan longer than Posted: WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama on Tuesday said the United States was committed to long-term ties with Afghanistan but did not want to keep troops there longer than needed to disable al Qaeda and ensure a modicum of stability as foreign forces withdraw. "President (Hamid) Karzai understands we are interested in a strategic partnership with the Afghan people and the Afghan government," Obama told reporters in a news conference. ... |

But in fact, they're so ingenious that it took until 3500 B.C. for someone to invent them. By that time — it was the Bronze Age — humans were already casting metal alloys, constructing canals and sailboats, and even designing complex musical instruments such as harps. |

| Navy to begin alcohol, drug tests for navy sailors Posted: WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Navy said on Monday it will begin breathalyzer tests for many sailors and random testing for synthetic drugs after dozens of sailors on aircraft carriers involved in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars were discharged last year for drug use.

| With Slight to GOP, Obama Hits Points for Women Voters Posted: President Obama wouldn't say Republicans are waging war against women over access to free contraception, but he did accuse Republicans of speaking carelessly about the potential costs of war with Iran and thereby stitched together a theme of calibrated caution the White House hopes will keep in good graces with women voters. |
| "Honor killings" require tougher laws, say Iraqi women Posted: BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Near the northern Iraqi city of Kirkuk, a father doused his three teenage daughters with boiling water and shot them because, he told a court, he suspected they were having sex. Two died. He said he killed them to defend his honor. Murder in Iraq can carry a death sentence but under laws that activists say are far too lenient for so-called "honor killings," the father was jailed for just two years. Medical examinations showed the girls were virgins. The light sentence was a result of Article 409 of Iraq's penal code which is often used in cases of "honor killings" by men. ... |
