Personal income taxes generally make up both the largest and most manageable expense we each face every year. However personal expenses whether they are real estate taxes, mortgage payment, or living expenses, are generally fixed, and therefore little can be done to alter or "manage" these expenses. The primary reason income taxes are "manageable" is that unlike any other expense, there are financial decisions that can be made that could significantly increase or decrease tax liabilities.

It is well known that smoking leads to a reduction in levels of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO), which is a marker for airway inflammation. However, there is limited knowledge about smoking-induced changes in the production and exchange of nitric oxide (NO) in young adults. In a study of eight women and eight men with a mean age of 23 years and a smoking history of less than eight pack-years, Greek researchers found that after smoking a single cigarette, the airway tissue concentration of NO increased by 26%, and the FeNO levels decreased by 15.6%.
