Yesterday was my birthday and I recieved my favorite breakfast tostart! Homemade Crumpets and a Breakfast Sandwich.
Here is what I am reading today:
“Panda feces contains bacteria with potent effects in breaking down plant material in the way needed to tap biomass as a major new source of “biofuels” produced not from corn and other food sources, but from grass, wood chips and crop wastes, scientists reported in Denver at the 242nd National Meeting & Exposition of the American Chemical Society (ACS).”
“A landmark study in the late 1960s and early 1970s used marshmallows and cookies to assess the ability of preschool children to delay gratification. If they held off on the temptation to eat a treat, they were rewarded with more treats later. Some of the children resisted, others didn’t.”
“Women who breast-feed are far more likely to demonstrate a “mama bear” effect — aggressively protecting their infants and themselves — than women who bottle-feed their babies or non-mothers, according to a new study in the September issue of Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science.”
“Fathers who actively engage in raising their children can help make their offspring smarter and better behaved, according to new research from Concordia University.”
