Its citizens are fundamentally prosperous and

12、the way of life in the major cities and towns is much the same however many miles divide them. It takes a sharp ear to identify regional accents. However, there is some difference in lifestyle between city dwellers and the country people. Almost 90 percent of the population lives in the fast-paced c

13、ities along the coast and has little more than a passing familiarity with the desert. The major cities preserve pockets of colonial heritage, but the overall impression is modern, with new buildings reflecting the country's youth.

The emphasis has shifted in recent years and today the majority of new imm

26、 watched him matured into the player who led Canisius back to daylight. After college Hall played professionally in Italy and Greece for over 10 years until a car accident at 32 ended his basketball career.

37、d vessels open up more, blood flows more smoothly and is less likely to form the clots (凝塊) that cause heart attacks and strokes. "We are not saying to stop your statins or not to exercise but rather to add this to an overall program of heart health," said Miller, who presented his finding
