By Szabo Laszlo What if I told you that the best way to improve bad posture can easily be learned by utilizing ONE simple 10-minute exercise? What if I told you this exercise could not only improve the health of your spinal column in the long run but it could also alleviate the pain and poor body posture that comes with it completely? I have recently come across an article on a website that pretty much dealt with the idea that our generation of mainly white-collar office workers is going to be less healthy in the next decades to come

By Julie Fidler A new study suggests the terrifying possibility that Alzheimer’s disease could be transmitted from person to person through some medical procedures. The study is small – 8 people – but it’s enough to make researchers question whether contaminated surgical tools might be capable of spreading the “seeds” of the disease, which clog the brain with amyloid proteins and steals the memories of patients. [1] The participants, adults between the ages of 36 and 51, all died of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) after receiving contaminated hormone injections as children. Autopsies performed on their brains showed that 7 of the

Its design is simple, though elegant, and the bridge can soundly hold twelve people at one time. This isn’t Ban’s only claim to fame, though. The architect also takes the homeless man’s cardboard box to a new level with his emergency housing design.

By Bette Dowdell Let’s talk about ions. What’s an ion, you might ask. Or, perhaps more importantly, why do I need to know about ions? Atoms are made up of electrons, protons,and neutrons. When atoms are joined together, they make a molecule, and an ion is a molecule of oxygen that has a different numbers of electrons and protons. If the proton count is higher, it’s positively charged, a cation. If there are more electrons than protons, it’s negatively-charged, a negative ion, an anion. Now stop yawning! I’m going somewhere with this! Positive ions do you dirt. They can turn
