Then cold sufferers throughout world can laugh all way to bank with money earned from suing sundry cigarette companies.

Cigarette case to be retried A three-judge panel of third District Court of Appeal ruled 2-1 in favor of a new trial Wednesday for Suzette Janoff, which Circuit Judge Leslie Rothenberg ordered after trial.

The majority agreed with Rothenberg that expert testimony for cigarette makers was unfairly "bolstered" by a defense attorney after questions by woman's attorney punched a hole in his conclusions.

How well you manage yourself and time you have, is crucial to your success. Wasted time equals lost opportunities. Lost opportunities equal lost business and profits.

Time can’t be “saved” – it’s an impossibility. You can’t find more of it – it’s a fixed commodity. You can only manage your activities as time passes. So how are you spending 60 seconds in each minute - 60 minutes in each hour - 1,440 minutes in each day?

What you need is to achieve is working on your top priorities in most effective way. Here are 10 great strategies for doing just that.

Lesson 1: Prioritize Aside from just listing what needs to be done, rank them from most important to least important. And then complete them in that order. Too often we start with easy stuff or quick stuff, regardless of how important it is. Look at list of things that need to be done. Hi-light activities that you could put on hold if you had to. How much time could you free up if you put some of those activities on hold?

Be realistic about number of priorities you have. Most of activities we are involved in are things we want to do. The problem with overwhelm is that there are many more things we want to do, than we physically have time for. So create some space by telling yourself that you are just putting some activities on hold for now. You are not giving them up forever, but you are giving yourself permission to put some activities on hold – so you can focus on most important priorities. This may force you to make some tough choices – but it’s a pretty empowering thing to do.|

Lesson 2: Be ruthless with e-mail. What a productivity killer email can be if misused. Use a private email address for clients and customers. Get everything else sent to a generic or alternate email address. That way you can deal with your client issues first, and rest when you have time.

Only respond to your emails at set times during day. I personally do emails first thing in morning, and between 2 and 3pm each day. There’s no need to respond instant that you receive an email. This approach simply means you get interrupted all time, and your productivity remains low.
