Electromagnets Help Stimulate Short-Term Memory

Electromagnets Help Stimulate Short-Term Memory

Posted by | Dec 21, 2016 |

For decades, it has been thought that short-term memory (otherwise known as working memory) was a result of a constant stream of attentive neurons, holding onto an idea.  It was thought that, if one were to stop using this neural pathway, the memory was gone forever. Now, a new study out of the University of Notre Dame in Australia shows that we may actually be able to reform ideas out of an unknown method, even if we have completely let them slip from our minds. “This changes how we think about the structure of working memory and the processes that...

Elon Musk will Launch Tunnel Digging Company to Make Underground Roads in Busy Cities

Elon Musk will Launch Tunnel Digging Company to Make Underground Roads in Busy Cities

Posted by | Dec 20, 2016 |

As Elon Musk sat in Los Angeles traffic, an idea came to him. What if he built giant machines to drill underground and create layers of tunnels?  The answer, he thought to himself, was implicit.  It would alleviate traffic and, so, that is what he will do. “The Boring Company,” is the planned company name and its modus operandi, “Boring, it’s what we do.” “Traffic is driving me nuts. Am going to build a tunnel boring machine and just start digging…” he Tweeted, followed up, shortly after, by “I am actually going to do this.” Apparently, the idea has...

5.1 TONS of mercury per year from fillings in your teeth can’t go down public sewers anymore, EPA rules

5.1 TONS of mercury per year from fillings in your teeth can’t go down public sewers anymore, EPA rules

Posted by | Dec 20, 2016 | ,

The EPA recently announced that the mercury you can safely put in your mouth (yeah, right) can no longer safely be put into public sewers. The day after the EPA’s ruling, European authorities approved a draft rule that would bar dentists from using mercury compounds to fill cavities in vulnerable populations (this translates to the primary teeth in children under 15 and pregnant or breastfeeding women- unless a specific medical need is cited). The new rule, which requires dentists to contain their extremely toxic discharges by 2020, is part of an international treaty from 2013. The Minamata Convention, ratified...

Sabal Trail Pipeline In Florida Causing Uproar (and Gov Rick Scott bought stock in the company!)

Sabal Trail Pipeline In Florida Causing Uproar (and Gov Rick Scott bought stock in the company!)

Posted by | Dec 20, 2016 | , , ,

Residents in Florida, and hopefully many from Standing Rock (including the Vets), are starting to rally behind the next big environmental cause: stopping the Sabal Trail Transmission pipeline from slicing through Alabama, Georgia, and North Central Florida. Many families in these states are being impacted (by losing their land or living dangerously close) by the $3 billion project that experts and activists agree isn’t necessary: other pipelines, already in existence, aren’t running at full capacity. There’s also “serious environmental justice issues” with Sabal Trail, as well as potential health problems that residents in its vicinity could encounter. In fact, four Georgia...

Why Your Grandparents Didn’t Have Food Allergies but You Do

Why Your Grandparents Didn’t Have Food Allergies but You Do

Posted by | Dec 19, 2016 | ,

For those of us who know (or knew) our grandparents, do you ever remember a time when a food allergy prevented them from enjoying something? I know personally that had I told my grandmother I was allergic to some food she would have laughed and been sure I was confused. “How on earth could you be allergic to food?” she would say, laughing. Now, think about all the kids in one of your child’s classrooms (if you don’t have kids, you know- improvise here). Count how many DON’T have food allergies. So why didn’t our grandparents have food allergies? Plain...
