SomeNail Salon Dryers Bombard Skin with UV
You just got your nails done at a salon, and now they’re drying under an ultraviolet lamp. They’ll look great. But exposure to UV radiation could prematurely age your hands and even potentially boost your risk of skin cancer.
Researchers found that the output from such nail salon dryers is highly variable. They measured the amount of irradiation from dryers with different bulbs across 16 salons. Higher-wattage lamps emitted higher levels of harmful UV.
The researchers assumed an eight-minute UV exposure each time. The damage to DNA from UV exposure is cumulative. So salon customers sitting under the highest-intensity nail dryer just eight times in two years could reach the threshold for DNA damage associated with cancer. In contrast, users of the lowest-emitting dryer would need more than 200 visits over a half century. The study is in the journal JAMA Dermatology. [Lyndsay R. Shipp et al, Further Investigation Into the Risk of Skin Cancer Associated With the Use of UV Nail Lamps]
The small study needs to be replicated on a large scale to be confirmed. But for now, the researchers advise salon-goers to load up on sunscreen or wear UV-blocking gloves with the fingertips lopped off before going under the lamp. Maybe just air dry. Oh, and try not to breathe the nail polish fumes either.

For a more productive life, daydream
By Brigid Schulte
May 16, 2014 -- Updated 2115 GMT (0515 HKT)
Time2
(CNN) -- In 1990, a 25-year-old researcher for Amnesty International, stuck on a train stopped on the tracks between London and Manchester, stared out the window for hours. To those around her, no doubt rustling newspapers and magazines, busily rifling through work, the young woman no doubt appeared to be little more than a space cadet, wasting her time, zoning out.
But that woman came to be known as JK Rowling. And in those idle hours daydreaming out the train window, she has said that the entire plot of the magical Harry Potter series simply "fell into" her head.
Mark Twain, during an enormously productive summer of writing in 1874, spent entire days daydreaming in the shade of Quarry Farm in New York, letting his mind wander, thinking about everything and nothing at all, and, in the end, publishing "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer."
Such creative breakthroughs in leisurely moments are hardly unique to literature. Physicist Richard Feynman idly watched students in the cafeteria goof off by spinning plates. For the fun of it, he began to make calculations of the wobbles. That "piddling around," as he called it, led to developing the Feynman diagrams to explain quantum electrodynamics, which resulted in a Nobel Prize.
Legend has it not only that Archimedes had his "eureka!" moment about water displacement while relaxing in the tub, but that Einstein worked out the Theory of Relativity while tootling around on his bicycle.
Though Protestant work ethic-driven Americans have tended to worry about the devil holding sway in idle time, it turns out idle time is crucial for creativity, innovation and breakthrough thinking. And now we know why. Neuroscience is finding that when we are idle, our brains are most active.
It all has to do with something called the brain's default mode network, explains Andrew Smart, a human factors research scientist and author of the new book, "Autopilot, the Art & Science of Doing Nothing."
[322 words]
Time3
The default mode network is like a series of airport hubs in different and typically unconnected parts of the brain. And that's why it's so crucial. When the brain flips into idle mode, this network subconsciously puts together stray thoughts, makes seemingly random connections and enables us to see an old problem in an entirely new light.
Using brain scans, psychologists John Kounios and Mark Beeman have found that just before that moment of insight, the brain turns inward, what they call a "brain blink," and lights up an area believed to be linked to our ability to understand the poetry of metaphors. A positive mood and taking time to relax, they found, were critical precursors to these a-ha! moments.
That's not to say that being idle all the time is the answer. Sir Isaac Newton was steeped in the study of physical science when he sat in his garden in a "contemplative mood," idly sipping tea after dinner one evening, noticed an apple fall straight to the ground, and came up with the Law of Gravity.
"To be most creative, you need this oscillation between deep study with focused attention and daydreaming, which is why you may have your great ideas when you're in the shower," Smart told me. "They can come into your consciousness when you're not busy."
Smart himself typically takes long, leisurely walks during the workday and carries a notebook with him to capture any interesting thoughts or ideas that his default mode network may burble to the surface.

Why every face you draw looks a little Neandertal
BY ERIKA ENGELHAUPT 10:15AM, MAY 7, 2014
Time4
Let’s try an experiment: Draw a face. Nothing fancy, just an oval with eyes, nose, mouth, some hair.
What you’ve produced probably looks like a cartoon Neandertal. Just about everyone tends to draw faces with the eyes too high on the head, resulting in a low forehead and a rather cretinous look.
It’s not just a matter of artistic talent. Psychology researchers (not to mention generations of art teachers) have noticed that everyone does it. That got Claus-Christian Carbon, who studies visual perception, wondering. Why don’t we know where people’s eyes are on their head? After all, humans are intensely social creatures who are highly attuned to reading each other’s faces. The eyes, in particular, get a lot of our attention.
In reality, your eyes are right about in the middle of your head, measured vertically. But most people draw them definitively above center.
“Even in painting courses, people start with exactly this bias,” Carbon says. “It’s absolutely familiar to researchers, but there was nothing in the [scientific] literature about it.” (You might remember Carbon from my recent post about the 3-D Mona Lisa; I learned of his work studying visual perspective in that painting when I called him about this study.)
So Carbon and his colleague Benedikt Emanuel Wirth, both at University of Bamberg, started by asking people to draw a face in a blank box. The results were predictably high-eyed. Next he tested how people did when given a little nudge. These people, 106 of them, got to look at a picture of a face for 30 seconds and then draw it from memory. And in 21 cases, Carbon let people flat-out copy from a photo sitting right in front of them.
Sadly, they only did a little better by copying.
Finally, Carbon and Wirth looked at depictions of faces in research papers by three well-known researchers who study face recognition. And yep, the pros failed.
So the researchers came up with three hypotheses,reported in March in Perception, to explain why normal people, and even people who study faces for a living, might not be able to put eyes in the right place. Here they are, in my own subjective order of increasing weirdness.
[366 words]
Time5
Hair-as-hat hypothesis: People don’t think of the hair as part of the head, but as sitting on top of the head like a hat (at least when they’re drawing a face). So they relate eye position to what’s seen as the “face” rather than considering where the eyes are on the head as a whole.
Head-as-box hypothesis: People don’t take the convexity (roundness) of the forehead into account, so the top of the head is assumed to be lower than it really is.
Face-from-below hypothesis: Babies first see faces mostly from below, and this view sets a mental map of sorts that is hard to erase later in life.
So far, the results seem to favor the second hypothesis, head as box. Analysis of the relative length of the faces that people drew showed the heads to be too short compared with the models they were based on. The hairlines, on the other hand, were drawn in the correct relative position, causing the forehead to be too small.
“As humans we have trouble assessing round shapes,” Carbon says. “Herman Munster has a really nonconvex head. That’s maybe the only person in the world whose head you might estimate correctly.”
To nail down whether the head-as-box effect is a general phenomenon, the researchers plan to see whether people have similar misperceptions of other rounded objects. “We will start with animal faces and then go further to everyday objects such as teakettles, cups, mugs and bottles,” Carbon says.
While misplaced eyes and many other visual illusions make it seem like our brain is making mistakes, “these perceptual failures are often actually extreme performance,” Carbon says. The area from the eyes to the mouth contains the most important information about a person’s emotional state, so that’s what we tend to zoom in on.
As for why we keep drawing people looking like Neandertals, Carbon says it’s just a coincidence. But as long as we keep doing it, the team writes, “Neandertals live on, at least in our depictions.”

Birds have clever solution for a cuckoo conundrum
Time6
Like a lot of birds, superb fairy wrens of Australia have a problem: Cuckoos lay their eggs in the fairy wrens’ nests. This is called brood parasitism, and it’s how cuckoos manage to have their baby birds raised well without any effort on their part. They leave the messy parts of parenthood to other birds.
Those other birds, though, don’t want to spend their time and effort raising someone else’s kid, especially when that kid might push out the chicks that actually belong in the nest. But the fairy wrens don’t prevent Horsfield’s bronze cuckoos from laying eggs in their nests because the cuckoos look too much like Accipiter hawks, which prey on fairy wrens. Make the wrong call when trying to stop the invader and the fairy wren might end up dead.
Superb fairy wrens have come up with another solution: Mama birds sing to their eggs. This incubation call teaches her babies a password. After they’ve hatched, the babies repeat that password as a begging call, and that tells mom to feed her children. The closer the begging call is to the incubation call, the more food the babies receive. This system works because incubating cuckoos fail to learn the password (scientists aren’t sure why, though).
Now Sonia Kleindorfer and her colleagues at Flinders University in Australia have found that moms that are more aware of the cuckoo threat are better teachers to their incubating young. Their study was published May 6 in Biology Letters.
The researchers conducted an experiment in which they played the songs of either the bronze-cuckoos or a control, the striated thornbill. Mama fairy wrens that heard the cuckoo calls increased the rate at which they made their incubation calls, telling their babies the important food password over and over, more often than those moms that heard the thornbill calls.
The mama birds that heard the cuckoo calls were led to believe that there were cuckoos nearby and that the threat of brood parasitism was greater. Therefore, it was more important that the wrens teach their young the password because there’s a greater chance they’ll need to know it, the researchers suggest.

The Next Frontier in Urban Design Will Send You Undeground
[Paraphrase 7]
Twenty feet under Delancey Street in Manhattan is a trolley terminal that hasn’t been used in 65 years—a ghostly space of cobblestones, abandoned tracks and columns supporting vaulted ceilings. An ideal place for the city to store, say, old filing cabinets. Yet when the architect James Ramsey saw it, he imagined a park with paths, benches and trees. A park that could be used in any weather, because it gets no rain. That it also gets no sunlight is a handicap, but not one he couldn’t overcome.
If the 20th century belonged to the skyscraper, argues Daniel Barasch, who is working with Ramsey to build New York’s—and possibly the world’s—first underground park, then the frontier of architecture in the 21st is in the basement.
There are advantages to underground construction, not all of them obvious, says Eduardo de Mulder, a Dutch geologist. Although excavation is expensive and technically challenging in places like the Netherlands with a high water table, underground space is cheaper to maintain—there are no windows to wash, no roof or facade exposed to weather. The energy cost of lighting is more than offset by savings on heating and cooling in the relatively constant below-ground temperature. Cities with harsh winters or blazing summers have been at the forefront of the building-down trend. Underground real estate in crowded Shanghai and Beijing, expanding at around 10 percent a year since the turn of the century, is projected to reach 34 square miles in the capital by 2020. Helsinki’s master plan calls for significantly expanding its tunnels and more than 400 underground facilities, which includes a seawater-cooled data center.
Of course, you give something up to relocate underground, namely, windows. Even de Mulder thinks below-ground living (as distinct from working and shopping) has a large obstacle to overcome in human psychology.
Mexico City architect Esteban Suarez’s proposed Earthscraper, an inverted pyramid designed to go 65 stories straight down, with a central shaft for daylight and air, remains unbuilt. But is the idea of underground living really so unheard of? Early human beings lived in caves, and in Turkey, the ancient Derinkuyu Underground City could have sheltered as many as 20,000 people on at least eight levels extending more than 275 feet below ground. The complex included rooms for habitation, workshops, food storage, even livestock pens; stone slabs sealing off corridors and stairs suggest that it was meant for refuge from invaders.
To bring sunlight to the cobblestones beneath Delancey Street, Ramsey has invented what he calls “remote skylights.” Pole-mounted receptors above the street, linked by fiber-optic cables to panels in the ceiling of the space below, illuminate space with genuine photons from the sun itself (rather than the simulacrum of daylight from light bulbs). He and Barasch call their proposal the Lowline, capitalizing on the success of the High Line, a West Side park that took over an unused rail trestle. With a small staff working out of Ramsey’s architecture office, they have begun building political support and raising the $60 million they estimate it will cost. “This will be a beautiful, sanitary, well-lit, vibrant space,” says Barasch. “It just happens to be below ground.”

daydream is critical for creativity. Then the author gives several examples, such as Newton, Einstein. But it doesn't mean that you can get your great ideas when you are always doing daydreams. You need do deep thinking and your brain will give you a suprise when you relex.
Article 2
When people draw simple human's faces, most of them draw the eyes lower than reality. Scientists think that face like box hypothesis can explain this phenomenon. When people draw a face, they don't consider that face is convex(凸面的).
Article 3
there is a bird called fairy wrens has a good way to solve cuckoo problems. Mama fairy wrens teach their little babies a song that they need to sing when they have food. The sing is the password to eat food, for Cuckoo's babies can't sing the song.

The author presents three hypotheses. Firstly, people don not account for the hair in the head and underestimate the actual length of the face. Secondly, people don’t account for the convexity so that the length of face has been underestimated. Thirdly, the habit looking people below when we are infancies influences the estimation of the length of face. Scientists support second hypothesis and design research to find whether the situation exists when the man face has been changed as animal face. At last, the scientist says that it is a coincidence that people draw the man like N.

Some scientists have researched that the more aware of the threat of the C, the S more teach the password frequently. They designed an experiment to support their idea.

The underground construction has many advantages, such as low maintenance cost and low energy cost. And the underground construction develops rapidly in Beijing, according to some data. But living underground has an obstacle to overcome. An architect from Mexico proposes a plan to build a huge underground construction accommodating many people. The author describes the specific detail of the building and how the architect plans to solve the problem of sunshine and introduces that the architects are looking for sponsors and funds.

In Manhattan there's an abandoned underground place where architect R plan to build a park there. The passage discusses about the advantages of underground space: savings on windows, roof and air-conditioning; can be used regardless of the weather. But it still has barriers to come across: lighting, high water ground, or people's general perceptions to live on surface. However, the passage states that these barriers are not impossible to overcome. People in early times or some places had the tradition to live in caves or underground. ( some examples given). The passage ends up by saying that R's project is going on well and perfectly works out.

Other birds create ways to aviod cuckoo's eggs.
They don't prevent cuckoo from laying eggs in their nests.Becuase cuckoos' eggs are very similar with their own eggs.Also they will face danger if they try to prevent the invader.
Instead,they use passwords that help them distinguish their own kids,after they are hatched.This is a good solution.

T5: 1:58
Three hypothesis are:1, Hair is on the top of the head, just like a hat.2,The forehead is not taken into account. 3,Babies start to recognize face from below, and this is a fixed habbit in their life after. The second hypothesis is most convincing. The researchers did the same thing to objects and animals to see if this is a general pattern. These mistakes are actually great performance, which reflected that people focus more on eyes for more emotion.
T6: 2:07
F bird faced a problem that C lay eggs in their nest and they could wrongly raise babies that do not belong them. They can not prevent this because C looks like their preyer. The solution is that mother bird will sing a tone repeatedly to eggs so that baby bird will ask for food with this password after they were born. Researchers played another tune and the mother bird smelled the threats and teach her possword more frequently.

Why? These eggs looks like the egges of Hawks, wren's prayer, pushing them out will lead to their own death.
Mama wrens have solutions:
singing to their eggs.
sining is a kind of password, when the birds are hatched out, the closer the begging call to incubation call, the more food they get.
Researchs find that the more awareness of the cuckoo, the better they teach.

Time 4: 1:40
An intersting experiment finds that if many people draw a simple picture of people's face, they will draw a kind of typically high-eyed face.
Time 5: 1:50
There are three hypothesese to explain this phenomenon, The first one: many people don't deem hair as a part of the face and regard it as a hat. So many people draw the eyes too high withought drawing the hair. The second one: Many people ignore the prescence of forehead and they offten draw the forehead so small that eyes seem to be high on the face. The third one: When we are babies, we see faces mostly from below and this view influences our whole life. The article mostly favors the second explaination.
Time 6: 2:00
Main idea: To prevent brood parasitism, superb fairy wrens sing to their eggs to teach them a password. After they have hatched, the babies repeat the password and then their parents will feed them.
Obstacle: 2:30
The article talks about the underground construction. Although there are many problems with the idea of the underground construction, including that the high cost of excavation, day light problems, human mental problems because of long time living underground and so on. But some scientists indicate that early human beings are accustomed to live underground. Also, Rarsey recently find the way to bring sunlight to the underground by fiber-optic cables.

Time 2
Many remarkable achievements started from idle time.
Neuroscience is finding that when we are idle, our brains are more active. It’s called the brain’s default mode network.
Time 3
How it works.
It’s not saying to be completely idle, but to have an oscillation between deep study with focused attention and daydreaming.
Why every face you draw looks a little Neandertal
Time 4
People tend to draw eyes above the center of the head, but eyes are actually on the center.
This is a really common mistake.
In an experiment, people only did a little better by copying.
Even professionals failed.
Time 5
Three hypothesis why it happens:
1. hair-as-hat hypothesis
2. head-as-box hypothesis
3. face-from-below hypothesis
The results seem to favor the second hypothesis.
Head too short compared with the models on which they were based.
To figure out if it happens to people while perceiving round objects
Birds have clever solution for a cuckoo conundrum
Time 6
Well cuckoos tend to leave eggs in other birds’ nest.
Wrens have a good solution that they sing to their own eggs, so when kids are hatched, they will learn the incubation song but cuckoos babies are gonna fail to do so.
Mom wrens sing more incubation songs to their eggs when hearing cuckoo sounds.

The underground terminal in Manhattan is being converted into a park. The 21st century will be belong to underground architectures. Underground construction has several advantages such as saving energy when heating or cooling the house, expanding the space in crowded cities. In fact, underground construction is not a new concept. Still, there are challenges to underground construction. Since there are no windows, underground construction cannot reach sunlight. To solve the problem, Ramsey plans to use the fiber-optic cables to send light to underground construction.
