Friends Reunited Reveals the Photos Brits Can't Bring Themselves to Get Rid Of
2012-07-27
Research from Friends Reunited has revealed that 21.6 million Brits have held onto photographs of former partners following a break up.
Women are more sentimental than men, with 61 per cent claiming they keep the photos as they highlight a part of their life they don't want to forget, versus 56 per cent of men. But men may be hiding more from their partners than their other halves realise. One in five men (20%) in a current relationship who have photos of their ex partners say they have hidden photos of an ex fearing disapproval from their new partner, compared to only ...
Hotter Shoes Reveals Uncomfortable Shoes Cost UK Women GBP2.5 Billion Per Year
2012-07-27
Women across the UK are frittering away GBP2.5 billion* each year on uncomfortable shoes they rarely wear a new study** has revealed.
The average woman in the UK spends GBP136.52 on five new pairs of shoes every year, at a cost of GBP27.40 each. Instead of investing wisely in shoes they can wear more than once, three out of the five pairs of women's shoes end up at the bottom of the wardrobe having only been worn once or twice, because they hurt the wearer's feet.
The research, commissioned by shoe specialist Hotter Comfort Concept, also revealed that 40% of the 1000 ...

Prompt Proofing Blog Post: Book Review - Those Who Save Us by Jenna Blum
2012-07-27
Those Who Save Us appears at first glance to be a book about the Holocaust, and, without doubt, the Holocaust and its brutality provides the setting for half the book - the half that is set during World War II. But this book goes far beyond that, examining the guilt and shame of those who survived and how they continue to be affected by the horrors, even many decades later.
The novel alternates between the story of Anna, a young girl at the outbreak of the war, now in her late 70s and living in Minnesota, and that of Anna's daughter Trudy who moved to America as a small ...

Hunter-gatherers, Westerners use same amount of energy, contrary to theory
2012-07-26
Modern lifestyles are generally quite different from those of our hunter-gatherer ancestors, a fact that some claim as the cause of the current rise in global obesity, but new results published July 25 in the open access journal PLoS ONE find that there is no difference between the energy expenditure of modern hunter-gatherers and Westerners, casting doubt on this theory.
The research team behind the study, led by Herman Pontzer of Hunter College in New York City, along with David Raichlen of the University of Arizona and Brian M. Wood of Stanford measured daily energy ...
Darker wings for monarch butterflies mean better flight
2012-07-26
For monarch butterflies, redder wings are correlated with better flight performance, according to research published July 25 in the open access journal PLoS ONE.
Previous work has shown that monarch coloring is intended to warn their predators about their bitter taste and toxicity, and that migratory butterflies are darker colored than non-migratory ones, suggesting an association between darker color and increased fitness. The current work, led by Andrew Davis of the University of Georgia, provides further evidence for this association. The researchers tested 121 captive ...
Birds, young children show similar solving abilities for 'Aesop's fable' riddle
2012-07-26
Birds in the crow family can figure out how to extract a treat from a half-empty glass surprisingly well, and young children show similar patterns of behavior until they reach about eight years old, at which point their performance surpasses that of the birds. The full report is published July 25 in the open access journal PLoS ONE.
In the current study, led by Nicola Clayton of the University of Cambridge, researchers used a version of the riddle commonly referred to as "Aesop's fable" to test associative learning and problem-solving ability. In previous work, the ...
