STUDY: ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT IMPROVED WITH EXERCISE DURING LESSONS
A Dutch study suggests that children can learn better if they exercise during their lessons.
Researchers found that children who followed an activity-enhanced curriculum designed for the study scored better on tests in Math and Spelling than children who followed a routine curriculum.
The study, published in the journal Pediatrics, indicated that the second- and third-grade students with the exercise-attached lessons scored at a level four months more advanced than the other students.

INTERVIEW INTELLIGENCE (Humor): WHAT NOT TO SAY AT JOB INTERVIEWS
Interview Intelligence: What Not To Say
What does this company do?
I need a hug.
What does this company do?
I need a hug.
Just how much are the employees here expected to follow the rules?
I have this anger building inside me. But I control it most of the time.
Wow, you’ve got the life, don’t you? I’d love to interview candidates. If you hire me I’ll work hard…probably harder than you...might even take
over your job – watch out. Just kidding.
Really.
Does this company discriminate against bail-jumpers?
I must be missing something - I don’t know how you
can stand coming back to this place day after day.
I’m kinda flexible about hours - They let me out on my own in
the daylight, Monday through Friday.
Just got back from the world's least explored jungle. By the way, does the health insurance cover infectious diseases?
GOOGLE'S NEW ROBOT
Google has a new robot and it's tough.
In a demonstration, researchers put the Atlas robot through some normal drills - walking (through snow), opening doors, lifting packages, etc. - and then showed that it is certainly not a softy. Poked and prodded and pushed to the ground with a hockey stick, the robot shrugged off the abuse and kept operating as if unfazed, springing up from the floor like a heavyweight boxer finding renewed vigor.
Score one for artificial intelligence.

ABOUT DEJA VU - ALL OVER AGAIN
As you may know, the term “deja vu” is French for “seen already”. Most of us have experienced it – reliving a moment in some way, familiarity with a landscape or conversation, for example.
But what exactly is “deja vu”? What is the brain doing? Scientifically, what is happening?
Science can inform us about the phenomenon, but at the moment, there's much we do not know. No one seems to be absolutely certain – specifically - what it is, how it happens, or why?
We do know that it seems to happen most to those in the age bracket of 15-25 - though, of course, it occurs outside of those parameters as well. Gender seems not to matter. And those who remember dreams may be more likely to experience it.
Researchers have used creative ways to study deja vu - examining the brains of epileptics, for example, and inventing 3D video games to simulate the experience.
For a more complete look at deja vu, see the article at CNN.
Scientists Create Human-like Robot – The Future is Now
Researchers at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore have created a “social” robot with a personality suited to companionship. The unit, named Nadine, uses “intelligence” software designed with human traits in mind, such as conversation skills, memory, and emotions.
