Yahoo unveils new e-mail features

Get up early tomorrow. A total lunar eclipse can be seen in Oklahoma around 4 a.m. and ending by 7:30 a.m. The Earth’s shadow will glide across the moon’s surface, eclipsing it and turning it to shades of orange red. Go to nasa.gov to watch a webcast of the eclipse. I’m probably going to go ahead and miss this one. The next total lunar eclipse occurs in February.

Yahoo is introducing new features today for its email. Users will be able to send e-mail, instant messages or text messages from a single Web site. Think of the money parents could save if their kids use their computers to text instead of 15 cents per text via cell phones.

Dunkin’ Donuts is trying to refresh its image by largely eliminating trans fat. How? With alternative cooking oil and by reformulating 50 menu items — doughnuts included. All by Oct. 15. Krispy Kreme has yet to roll out a zero gram trans fat doughnut but hopes to do so. Starbucks said in May that it would cut artificial trans fats out of its food and drink by year’s end.

Stay healthy America.
