Dr. Virend Somers, is a Cardiologist from the Mayo Clinic, who is lead author of the report in the July 29, 2008 issue of the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. Most heart attacks occur in the day, generally between 6 A.M. and noon. Having one during the night, when the heart should be most at rest, means that something unusual happened. Somers and his colleagues have been working for a decade to show that sleep apnea is to blame. 1. If you take an aspirin or a baby aspirin once a day, take it at night. The reason: Aspirin has a 24-hour "half-life"; therefore, if most heart attacks happen in the wee hours of the morning, the Aspirin would be strongest in your system. 2. FYI, Aspirin lasts for years in your medicine chest , (when it gets old, it smells like vinegar).

ACT 135: The Blighted and Abandoned Properties Conservatorship Act
Passed November 26, 2008, and becoming effective on February 24, 2009, this Act was designed to use new tools to address blighted and abandoned properties. A building in the municipality can meet the conditions for conservatorship if it is not legally occupied for 12 months, not marketed for 60 days, no foreclosure action, and current owner has obtained the building for longer than 6 months. In addition to those requirements, it must meet three of the following: a public nuisance, need for substantial rehab, unfit for occupancy, increases risk of fire, subject to entry, not secured by owner, attractive nuisance, hazards, decreases property values, and/or illicit activities. If the building within the municipality meets those requirements, the municipality may initiate a conservatorship action.
