Strange Scientific Research

Imagine conducting a study to determine which is worse – being hit over the head with a full beer bottle or an empty one? As it turns out, empty bottles are ‘sturdier’ because of the air pressure in the full bottles. Good to know.

Reader’s Digest reviewed several scientific studies that were, well, quite odd which made for fun reading.

Just in case of chemical-warfare, you may want to own a brassiere containing air-filters to use as a facemask (I will leave it to your imagination how that may work : ). Another discovery is that cows need affection – if they have a name, they produce more milk. And did you know that bacteria from a giant panda’s excretions can reduce kitchen waste – who thinks of these things ??? Check out these and other fun inventions at www.readersdigest.com/inventions.

Emergency Care for You

EMERGENCY CARE FOR YOU FOR www.EmergencyCareForYou.org

The World Future Society (www.wfs.org/futuristupdate.htm) shared a great website in a recent article which you may find very helpful. I know I did.

ARE YOUR PREPARED?? Suppose your mom falls on the sidewalk, and a kind passerby calls 911. She's at the hospital now, but the doctor needs to know if she's allergic to the pain medication he wants to give her. And if she has diabetes. And if she's on Coumadin.

Are you ready to answer these questions? As the numbers of elderly with chronic health problems grow, the need for caregivers and family members to be prepared for emergencies will increase. Emergency Care For You, (www.EmergencyCareForYou.org), a service of the American College of Emergency Physicians, offers tips on what you need for a trip to the ER, as well as helpful medical forms to download and complete, such as lists of current medications, medical histories, advanced medical directives, and insurance information. Check it out.

Also, if you need advice on benefits offered under health insurance plans, contact your Trusted Choice Agent (www.treutel.com). Ask for Angelyn or Becky.
