UPDATE! The WHO Came out with a new study that clarifies much. Read first!

I have to admit I was F***ing FLOORED when Harvard released a study that basically says, “If you are within 6 Degrees of Ron Swanson’s bacon-suffused prevailing-wind-fart-contrail, you’re as good as dead.”

The idea was at least 1-fold. MINIMUM!

The Next Wave Of Human Brain Evolution: Science Finds “Supertaskers”

Take THAT!, Anti-MultiTasker-science-studying bastard-guys! HAH!

Ever since the first studies emerging about Multitasking being a productivity+accuracy-killing time-waste, I both cheered and booed, believed and doubted.

I cheered for Focus, I cheered for Reasonable Expectations in the Workplace.

But my Evolutionary Brain was Booing and calling BOGUS!!!

I remember thinking about Gordon Ramsay. The first thing that came to mind was, “CHRIST, WHAT AN A****LE!!!”…

In an interesting interspecies twist,

Dr. Michael Zasloff shares his observations about our funny, wake-surfing friends in a letter to the JID, hoping that some day maybe we can gain abilities similar to them.

All-Nighters Lower Your Metabolism. So: Chronic Sleep Debt Probably Makes You Fat
sleepy ferret orange blanket yawn

You would think that staying in a more wakeful state longer would mean you burn more calories.

And it does.

-But only for awhile.

Then you go downhill.

In an experiment conducted by Ken Wright and the Department of ChronoBiology at UC-Boulder, they found that metabolism was up by about 7% above normal while people were kept up.

BUT: It was down…

What The World Needs Now … Is An Alzheimer’s-Prion-Blockage Buster
crazy passport paper


Now that they’ve been linked to some cases of Alzheimer’s, we need a prion-killer more than ever.

-Or at least something to break up the structures they form in those cases.

Because what the Yale team found out is that the Beta-Amyloid glop that normally hallmarks the disease is made worse when it runs into prions. That-is, the non-mutant,…

Can Burton Water Salts Cure Sensitive Teeth?
sea of salt

Basically, at one point, I was getting ~all my water from a highly-filtered source.

I soon found myself having very sensitive teeth.

I’d heard something awhile back about how even though it’s sterile and clean, that actually drinking Distilled or Deionized Water is really bad for you.
