This video made me realize that men got a lot of bad fashion when it came to bathing suits. Isn't?

Yesterday, before students of lower levels, students returned to classes from high school: the high school students, high school, under the system in which they are enrolled. Or simply teenagers who, in the educational system are exposed or outside it, in seeking to define themselves generally prefer to use other things that your school.

One of those other things that identify or define the young, and certainly one of the most important is the music.

And yet, at least in Mexico, the high school level education suffers from precisely the subject of music. Perhaps because it is considered that was already sufficiently covered in previous levels (which usually false) or because it is considered that the benefits, amply demonstrated, music education exist only in childhood.

However, a study published July 20 in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) shows that music education helps "develop skills that are critical to academic success" and "musical training during high school 'sharpening' brain development. "

Music and neural development

The study suggests that musical training accelerates neural development, particularly auditory perception and language skills.

"While music programs are often the first to be eliminated when schools have budget problems, our results highlight the importance of music in the curriculum of the high school," says Nina Kraus, lead author of the study and director of Auditory Neuroscience Laboratory at the School of Communication at Northwestern University.

"While learning to play music not teach skills that seem directly relevant to most races, these results suggest that music can generate what educators call 'learning to learn'," adds Kraus said in a statement.

The study compared students who are involved in the school band and compares them with those who were enrolled in a program of physical exercise.

Throughout the three years of high school and the duration of the study, all students improved their skills related to spoken language, but the improvement was greater in those taking music class than those who did exercise.

It is known that the processing of small, very important for language skills, sonic detail is decreased in children who grow up in poverty, so the authors suggest that music education in adolescence may help reverse this deficiency.

"Our results support the notion that the adolescent brain is still receptive to musical training," wrote the paper's authors.

Music, to remove

The benefits of music beyond music education. Just listening is beneficial.

For example, last May was published in the journal Sports Medicine-Open certain playlists in no less than 70% adherence to therapy for rehabilitation of patients with heart problems. This happened if the tempo of the selected music was the same as that required patients to do their exercises.

A few days later, at the American Thoracic Society International Conference, data about how music helps "intubateds" who have been connected to a ventilator, because that helps them relax and reduce anxiety (measured as often presented heart) try to breathe without the machine.

And it has even seen that it can help certain patients with certain forms of epilepsy.

However, returning to teenagers, what they want is not only music, but appropriate it, which explains, according to a study done at the Aalto University in Finland, YouTube is the world's largest music service.

This first academic study attributes the success of YouTube video site, where the music is by far the most requested, to the possibility that the creations of popular musicians can be reused in many ways by users as YouTube promotes very While these recreations, says researcher Lassi A. Liikkanen.

Sex with chocolate is a myth?

Chocolate is sometimes called an aphrodisiac, but new research published in The International Society for Sexual Medicine, shows that the delicacy is not working like an aphrodisiac.

Scientists at several universities found that chocolate does contain ingredients that are linked to a high levels of serotonin, a substance that excites our sexual appetite in our brains. But in practice, people who eat chocolate does not have significantly more interest in sex. The researchers observed in a bar two groups: one group of subjects treated with chocolate, the second group chocolate. In retrospect, was probed their interest in sex and it shows that the people who ate chocolate had no more or less sense than the rest. The scientists concluded from their findings that the fact that chocolate as an aphrodisiac act all the time, was a persistent myth.

Oysters are rich in amino acids and serotonin, and therefore diving frequently in lists of aphrodisiac foods. They also contain a lot of zinc, a convenient mineral to produce testosterone. Nevertheless, the researchers can not scientifically substantiate that the shellfish increase our sexual appetite. Honey also absolutely does not help.

But it is not completely lost. The study shows that extracts of the Chinese tree Ginkgo Biloba does mean something to your sex life. A small study showed that the tree, really has medicinal properties and problems of a sexual nature in both men and women can do fade.

How to know when if you eat honey is pure or is adulterated?

If there is something extremely beneficial and almost entirely in nature is honey, because it contains large amounts of vitamins and minerals plus trace elements, which are ideal for our body. Although many types of honey which they may be adulterated currently. Many of these honeys are blends of honey with glucose solutions which are of very little quality with more water than honey, and are obtained from cells without lids or rather (not sealed with wax).
To our good fortune, there are some ways to check if we bought honey really is pure and of good quality, or is adulterated in some way.

The first thing is, read the label

So you can identify if the honey you buy does not have any alteration, the first thing to do is to read the ingredient list, as you read, check that does not contain an ingredient called (high fructose corn syrup) or mostly known as commercial glucose, which are widely used to stretch honey, and will not allow this to solidify.

We will check the solidification of honey

If you do not know this information; all honeys are always in a liquid state, but there comes a time when they tend to solidify, this process is known as sugarburn. So if you notice when you buy a bottle of honey and this crystallised, this means that it is completely pure honey. Likewise, if you buy a liquid honey you can wait a few days to see if it solidifies or put it in your refrigerator to speed up this process. If you see that fails to crystallise, the chances of it has been adulterated is great. So be careful.

How to know if the honey is pure or has been adulterated?

Since we always love to keep you informed and in health, therefore with these simple tricks can identify if bought honey has been adulterated in any way in the process. Take note of the following tips.
Pour a tablespoon of honey in a glass of water. If you see that honey is dissolved without touching it, then it is not pure honey. But then as you move to throw it into the water, honey as such must be all together as a solid.
We will take a little honey and mix it with water, then we'll take five drops of vinegar essence. If you see that honey foams, it means that the honey has been adulterated with plaster.
Put a little honey in a spoon and place it down quickly if honey dropping from spoon means that it is very humid and is not of good quality, as good quality honey takes some time to fall, as it very slowly.
Another way to check the quality of our honey is light a match and burn match or a little honey; if we burn the honey is completely pure honey. But if we see that it does not, it is because it has a lot of moisture (water), and therefore it has been adulterated.
If you have a little iodine in your house, looking a little honey and mix it with water and check it two drops of iodine. If the result is blue, it means that honey was adulterated with starch or flour.
These are simple and quick to find out if our honey is quality or not forms. So you have a greater amount of assertiveness when you go to buy honey, and so make the most of their nutrients to your diet.

Empty Mirror

How do you describe something that is characterised by its absence?
Even hunger is not a void. Hunger is hunger .... A state, a feeling, a subject, a purpose in life.
But this emptiness is uncaring, thoughtless, wordless. Deaf, dumb and blind.
How do you describe something that is not there? "What's wrong?" "Nothing."Rarely was this answer honestly.
How to make tangible, as this "nothing" can thus weigh heavily on a person?
My sister's birthday. I'll call her. I forgot what I wanted. Fortunately I get the curve and I find it yet again. Congratulations are with us always a mixture of "should be" and "how embarrassing." Thus, it does not fall to continue.
My thoughts often break out in spurts out of me. If I write them down, for example, for the blog, I have to portioning and temporally distributing something - so that individuals are not identifiable, so that I can even win a little more distance to events, thoughts and feelings and because I commentaries mercilessly to 10 different topics would be overwhelmed. It's bad enough that my own thoughts start pouring on me, before the thought of my dear commentators I need (so dear and precious to me every word also is) a bit 'protect' in this respect. Just because my comments are so important, and already in this way far too many of my inadequate or even sometimes not be answered - simply because I'm still overwhelmed. What is a problem is that there all alone on my side.
But thus it is thought to act strangely, now read of this emptiness. Because it does not look here on the blog just to emptiness, right? (Leaving empty and thoughts circles no contradiction for me ... but I can not really explain well and hope that comes halfway over, what I mean?)
I sit in front of a text and see its meaning in the consideration of the case. I find that this is a strange one letter, while the t looks somehow reassuring. i and l do not like, which has y a beautiful shape, but steps out of line, while the Y while a similar but has an incorrect form. x, y and z are just plain ugly, the points have no relation to the rest of the letters and let him act so arbitrary and imperfect.
It strikes me as illogical that I am thirsty and therefore will have a drink. Not only that the body has nothing to need. The link (IF thirsty then drink) seems to me ... illogical.
It seems to me logical to crawl half an hour after getting back to bed, when I know that I had a lot to do and I will regret in the evening at the desperate chase against time the hours of sleep.
I wake up drenched in sweat, even though my body is cold. In my dreams I can not remember.
In the mirror I look at two eyes. Huge eyes in a pale face. A wax figure that rose up from the mirror hell, to whisper me with closed lips slightly.
An echo in my head. No words, no thoughts, no sound, no hallucination. Only the feeling of an echo. Only emptiness.
