Sodium\Potassium Ratio
A 15 year study showed:
Higher sodium intake was associated with an increase in mortality from all causes.
Higher potassium intake was associated with a lower mortality risk: people with the highest potassium intake had a 61% lower risk of dying from all types of cardiovascular disease and a 74% lower chance of dying from ischemic heart disease (heart disease caused by impaired blood flow, usually a result of atherosclerosis) compared with people with the lowest intake.
Having higher sodium-to-potassium ratios significantly increased the risk of mortality from heart disease. For ischemic heart disease, the risk was more than two times greater among people with the highest sodium-to-potassium ratio than in those with the lowest ratio.

Failed Buzz to fall off Google+
Google has announced its intention to drop Buzz, the failed social predecessor to Google+. Other products swept out in the latest cleanup round include open source code scouring tool Code Search, social product Jaiku, iGoogle social features and API access to Google search for selected researchers. This year Google has also taken down Google Health, Power Meter, Google Labs and Google Toolbar in Firefox amongst others.
Gee. Would make one wary of throwing any time behind developing for a Google app wouldn’t it?
