Cavities rise in preschoolers signal sugar rise
Atlanta based federal study shows tooth decay in children ages 2 to 5 increased from 24 percent to 28 percent between 1988 1994 and 1999 2004. The report notes adults visit dentists less and older children show fewer cavities and less periodontal disease. Experts point to processed snacks bottled water and soda as contributors and urge early dental visits starting at age 1 with proper brushing.

Black immigrant origin students rise at top US colleges
Shirley Wilder, executive director of the American Association for Affirmative Action, notes a shift in black enrollment at elite colleges with more first and second generation immigrant students. A study of 1,028 freshmen at 28 top colleges in 1999 found 27 percent of black students were immigrant-origin, about double the 13 percent in the national black population, with 41 percent of Ivy League black freshmen immigrant-origin. The reasons remain unclear.
