Washington, Nov 12 : A new study by researchers from Sweden has revealed that in women, habitual snoring may be an independent cause of excessive daytime sleepiness and daytimefatigue, regardless of sleep apnea occurrences.
For the study, the researchers performed polysomnography on 400 randomly selected women, aged 20 to 70 years.
The apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) was calculated, and women who acknowledged snoring loudly and either disturbingly often or very often were considered habitual snorers.

Washington, Nov. 12: The Federal Election Commission (FEC) is unlikely to conduct a potentially embarrassing audit of how Barack Obama raised and spent his presidential campaign’s record-shattering windfall, despite allegations of questionable donations and accounting that had the McCain campaign crying foul.
According to Politico, Obama is expected to escape that level of scrutiny mostly because he declined an 84 million dollar public grant for his campaign that automatically triggers an audit and because the sheer volume of cash he raised and spent minimizes the significance of his errors.
