From the Bureau

rates of productivity change in the second quarter of 2002 were:
1.4 percent in the business sector,
1.1 percent in the nonfarm business sector,
4.9 percent in manufacturing,
7.0 percent in durable goods manufacturing, and

In the business sector, productivity grew as hours dropped 1.1 percent and
output edged up 0.3 percent. A similar pattern occurred in nonfarm
businesses, where hours fell 0.7 percent as output grew 0.5 percent.

Couldn't Pass It Up
Women, who feel stressed on a day-to-day basis, are more likely to die from stroke and heart disease than their more mellow peers and men, even when they do not have other risk factors, Japanese researchers report. Stressed-out women were on average younger, more educated, less active, thinner, and were more likely to have a history of high blood pressure and diabetes. They also smoked more and were more likely to have a full-time job compared with more relaxed women. The association between mental stress and death from heart disease and stroke was weaker among men for reasons that are not clear. Stressed out men were more likely to die of a heart attack, but there was no association between stress and stroke or coronary heart disease. From Reuters Health.
