Episode 36 - No one can hear you be a smart ass in space.

from Six Degrees of Rumination · host Nina Reno and Michael

Want to avoid wrinkles?  You can always stop smiling for 40 years.  No, we're not being sarcastic.  But if we were, just listening to that remark could improve your brain activity--sarcasm is also learned at a young age, and learned better if both parents employ it.  Yet another reason to be sarcastic to children!  Meanwhile, in the world of technology, developers dazzle us again, this time with contact lenses that magnify whatever you look at up to three times the original size.  In the world of science, we learn how to better evaluate the validity of studies, and in the world of space, we learn what to believe and what not to believe.   But the scariest article?  Robocop might become a reality by next year... http://www.msn.com/en-us/lifestyle/beauty/woman-avoids-smiling-for-40-years-to-stop-wrinkles/ar-AA9gjgJ   http://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/the-science-of-sarcasm-yeah-right-25038/?fb_locale=th_TH&no-ist     http://www.iflscience.com/technology/scientists-develop-telescopic-contact-lenses-can-zoom-3x   http://ed.ted.com/lessons/not-all-scientific-studies-are-created-equal-david-h-schwartz   http://www.iflscience.com/10-space-myths-we-need-stop-believing     http://thefreethoughtproject.com/early-2016-robot-cops-patrolling-streets-no/#rMZVbujw3j2VoHUX.01       http://earthweareone.com/the-artificial-womb-is-born-welcome-to-the-world-of-the-matrix/     http://www.iflscience.com/health-and-medicine/certain-traits-could-come-our-mothers-bacteria-rather-our-genes     http://www.npr.org/blogs/health/2015/02/18/387211563/pain-really-is-all-in-your-head-emotion-controls-intensity?utm_source=facebook.com&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=npr&utm_term=nprnews&utm_content=20150218
