Men are likely to live longer if they marry a younger woman, new research suggests.
  A man's chances of dying early are cut by a fifth if their bride is between 15 and 17 years their junior.
  The risk of premature death is reduced by 11 per cent if they marry a woman seven to nine years younger.
  The study at Germany's Max Planck Institute also found that men marrying older women are more likely to die early.
  The results suggest that women do not experience the same benefits of marrying a toy boy or a sugar daddyNike air max.
  Wives with husbands older or younger by between seven and nine years increase their chances of dying early by 20 per cent.
  This rises to 30 per cent if the age difference is close to 15 and 17 years..soccer jersey

  Scientists say the figures for men may be the result of natural selection ?C that only the healthiest, most successful older men are able to attract younger matesnike shox nz.
  "Another theory is that a younger woman will care for a man better and therefore he will live longer," said institute spokesman Sven Drefahl.
  The study examined deaths between 1990 and 2005 for the entire population of Denmark.
   On average in Europe, most men marry women around three years younger.

For the past 50 years, scientists have scoured the skies for radio signals from beyond our planet, hoping for some sign of extraterrestrial life. But one physicist says there's no reason alien life couldn't already be lurking among us - or maybe even in us.Nike tn
 Paul Davies, an award-winning Arizona State University physicist known for his popular science writing said Tuesday that life may have developed on Earth not once but several times.
  Davies said the variant life forms - most likely tiny microbes - could still be hanging around "right under our noses - or even in our noses."Nike shox nz
 "How do we know all life on earth descended from a single origin?" he told a conference at London's prestigious Royal Society, which serves as Britain's academy of sciences. "We've just scratched the surface of the microbial world.".soccer jersey

  The idea that alien micro-organisms could be hiding out here on earth has been discussed for a while, according to Jill Tarter, the director of the US SETI project, which listens for signals from civilizations based around distant stars.
  She said several of the scientists involved in the project were interested in pursuing the notion, which Davies earlier laid out in a 2007 article published in Scientific American in which he asked: "Are aliens among us?"
  So far, there's no answer. And ever finding one would be fraught with difficulties, as Davies himself acknowledgedNike air max.
  Unusual organisms abound - including chemical-eating bacteria which hide out deep in the ocean and organisms that thrive in boiling-hot springs - but that doesn't mean they're different life forms entirely.
  "How weird do they have to be suggest a second genesis as opposed to just an obscure branch of the family tree?" he said. Davies suggested that the only way to prove an organism wasn't "life as we know it" was if it were built using exotic elements which no other form of life had.
