jjbrr Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 I don't care. I want to trade places with the guy in the back. B-) He's quite obviously fabulouthly unaffected by the beauty that surrounds him, not that there's anything wrong with that. On the other hand, the girl in the middle is phenomenal. I'm sure there's a joke here about drilling cavities, but I'll let someone else handle that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

y66 Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 What do mice do to get smarter? Last year a team of researchers led by Justin S. Rhodes, a psychology professor at the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology at the University of Illinois, gathered four groups of mice and set them into four distinct living arrangements. One group lived in a world of sensual and gustatory plenty, dining on nuts, fruits and cheeses, their food occasionally dusted with cinnamon, all of it washed down with variously flavored waters. Their “beds” were colorful plastic igloos occupying one corner of the cage. Neon-hued balls, plastic tunnels, nibble-able blocks, mirrors and seesaws filled other parts of the cage. Group 2 had access to all of these pleasures, plus they had small disc-shaped running wheels in their cages. A third group’s cages held no embellishments, and they received standard, dull kibble. And the fourth group’s homes contained the running wheels but no other toys or treats. All the animals completed a series of cognitive tests at the start of the study and were injected with a substance that allows scientists to track changes in their brain structures. Then they ran, played or, if their environment was unenriched, lolled about in their cages for several months. Afterward, Rhodes’s team put the mice through the same cognitive tests and examined brain tissues. It turned out that the toys and tastes, no matter how stimulating, had not improved the animals’ brains. “Only one thing had mattered,” Rhodes says, “and that’s whether they had a running wheel.” Animals that exercised, whether or not they had any other enrichments in their cages, had healthier brains and performed significantly better on cognitive tests than the other mice. Animals that didn’t run, no matter how enriched their world was otherwise, did not improve their brainpower in the complex, lasting ways that Rhodes’s team was studying. “They loved the toys,” Rhodes says, and the mice rarely ventured into the empty, quieter portions of their cages. But unless they also exercised, they did not become smarter. "]From How Exercise Could Lead to a Better Brain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winstonm Posted April 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 I am well past this phase - I have exercised to the point of becoming so smart I now know how to get smarter without exercising. Kind of a Catch-22 sort of thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From How Exercise Could Lead to a Better Brain This should be required reading for those who plan the curriculum for school children. I have always believed that riding my bike was at least as important to my childhood development as studying my spelling. Of course my posts might ilestrate how dis reely wirks en practas.

I simply have little time as my wife is extremely ill and I am on FMLA to take care of her. Thanks for asking, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
