E-cigarette trend backs up in U.S. schools
The CDC reports a surge in teen e-cigarette use from 2011 to 2012, with 1.78 million middle and high school students trying them in 2012. High school usage rose to 10 percent in 2012, while 3 percent used in the past 30 days. Experts warn nicotine exposure harms adolescent brains and could spark broader smoking habit uptake.

China signals sweeping reforms easing one-child rule
President Xi Jinping announced a broad reform package including relaxation of the one-child policy and abolition of labor camps, while keeping Communist Party control intact. The plan promises market economics and stronger rule of law, with limited rights gains for peasants and continued internet control. Experts note modest population impact and uneven pace, yet markets reacted positively to the reform direction.
