Heavy Drinkers Outlive Nondrinkers, Study Finds

But even after controlling for nearly all imaginable variables - socioeconomic status, level of physical activity, number of close friends, quality of social support and so on - the researchers (a six-member team led by psychologist Charles Holahan of the University of Texas at Austin) found that over a 20-year period, mortality rates were highest for those who had never been drinkers, second-highest for heavy drinkers and lowest for moderate drinkers.

Drunk biker veers off road into a rut, dies, widow sues

Williams was the lead bike in a group of four riding west on Main Street when "for reasons unknown" he drove onto the shoulder, where his tire dropped into a 4-inch deep, 5-inch wide, 24-foot long rut. The motorcycle, which was approaching Oklahoma Avenue, suddenly flipped to its right, throwing Williams onto the pavement and into the path of other bikers. A spokeswoman for the 5th Circuit Medical Examiner's Office, which conducted an autopsy on Williams at its offices in Leesburg, said two toxicological examinations measured Williams' blood-alcohol at 0.12 percent, a level exceeding the .08 percent statutory threshold at which Florida law presumes a motorist to be impaired.

Stupid frat prank becomes runaway Web phenom

"The rules are simple: hand a Smirnoff Ice (the warmer/more disgusting the flavor, the better) to a friend (your "bro"), and he must get down on one knee and chug the malt beverage, regardless of location and situational appropriateness," culture blog The Awl explains. "HOWEVER. If said friend happens to have a Smirnoff Ice on his person, then the bro who initiated the battle has to chug BOTH Ices. This is known as an Ice Block."

Put crazy fans who run onto field in jail

53673148
On that, Tom Gamboa and I agree. Put any goof who sets foot on a playing field such as the teenager at the Phillies game last week behind bars for a mandatory period of time instead of assessing a fine and charging him with misdemeanors.

This is a really interesting writeup about alcohol, religion, education, aptitude, and geography, and the only votable is in the headline.

Going after parents who provide alcohol for their kids

With the arrival of proms, graduations and warm weather, community leaders are geared up for another prime party season. And more are taking a get-tough approach with adults who provide alcohol to minors, or who turn their backs to underage drinking, whether it's on their property or not. In Lake County, 24 municipalities — most recently Barrington and Lake Forest — have approved "social-host" laws that penalize any adult who allows a minor to drink or use drugs. Chicago's social-host ordinance calls for jailing any "supervising adult" for up to six months if convicted of allowing teen drinking or possession of alcohol.

World's Strongest Beer: BrewDog's Alcohol Heads to U.S.

Some alcohol-watchdog groups aren't laughing. The chief executive of Alcohol Focus Scotland, Jack Law, has blasted BrewDog's high-alcohol products as "irresponsible," especially at a time when Scotland is experiencing "severe alcohol-related problems." In December, BrewDog received a slap on the wrist from a British alcohol regulatory body, the Portman Group, which ordered that retailers pull the company's 18.2% Tokyo beer brand off shelves because of its marketing tactics.
