"\"Sixty is the new forty.\" Hillary Clinton made the line famous last year when she celebrated her 60th birthday during the presidential campaign.

Mink Equal Opportunity in Education Act, became law in 1972.) Dani, who turns 60 in October, recalls, \"When I was in school they wouldn&amp;apos;t let me take auto mechanics class. They said I would be a distraction. I could take home economics.\""^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
