Permit me to say that I’ve lost track of the philosopher who said this… lol, but as a matter of fact, his claim is the closest thing to perfection. Keeping a fit body is thus a vital aspect of our everyday life, and despite our very tight schedules we struggle hard to make out time and exercise our body tissues, organs and system.

While in the hospital she had passed stool regularly every day, mostly after each feed, sometimes several times a day, until three days ago when suddenly she stopped moving her bowels and had been mostly crying and uncomfortable.

Image
When it comes to health and well-being, there is almost always a reason. Very little can be attributed to coincidence or bad luck. Even unpredictable diseases like cancer do not necessarily strike at random. There is almost always something we have done that is part of the problem.

It is crucial to realize your mistakes, and as hard as it might be, take full responsibility for them.

Image
Helicopters are the nimble, wily cousins of airplanes. While that may seem like they're much more dangerous, that's not necessarily the case.

Curiosity: Why extreme temperatures mess with your battery.

Image
you probably don't even think about the battery in your phone, or your car, or your flashlight—until it stops working. Often, that's when you're getting around the campground in the peak of summer or snapping a snow-angel selfie in the dead of winter. Why are batteries so sensitive to harsh weather? It's because inside each battery is a tiny chemical reaction, and chemical reactions are very dependent on temperature.

The couple shared a delusion that people were sneaking into their house at night spreading dust, dropping pieces of fluff, and wearing down the soles of the couple's shoes.

Tech:Soon your computer could forget.

Image
Every year, computers get closer to "thinking" like humans. Instead of following commands by rote, artificial intelligence can learn. Instead of processing one task at a time, neural networks use synthetic neurons to do many things at once.
