   محققان وضعیت افرادی را که در مناطق مختلف ولینگتون پایتخت نیوزیلند زندگی می کردند مقایسه کردند و دریافتند که تماشای دریا در هر روز با کاهش سطوح استرس ارتباط دارد و این ارتباط حتی با در نظر گرفتن میزان ثروت، سن، جنسیت و سایر عوامل است. با این حال، تماشای فضاهای سبز مانند چمنزارها و پارک ها و جنگل ها ظاهرا تاثیر مشابهی ندارند که به گفته آمبر پیرسون نویسنده مطالعه در دانشگاه ایالت میشیگان، می تواند ناشی از این باشد که محققان بین انواع فضاهای سبز تفاوت قائل نشده اند. پیرسون افزود: تفاوت تاثیر فضای سبز و دریا می تواند به دلیل فضای آبی کاملا طبیعی دریا ب یادداشت های سر بزنگاه ...ادامه مطلب

This Firefighter Pulled a Baby Out of Fire and Saved Her Life. 17 Years Later, He Attended Her Graduation. Though he'd put out plenty of fires in his career, this particular rescue stayed with him. BY LAUREN DIAMOND Seventeen years ago, now 61-year-old Mike Hughes, who was the captain of the Wenatchee, Washington, Fire Department, rescued a 9-month-old infant named Dawnielle Davidson from her buing house. In June of 2015, he watched her walk across the stage as she graduated high school. “Our engine pulled up and the whole interior part of the house was buing heavily,” Hughes told ABC News about the 1998 fire. “My partner and I went in and I got a call on the radio that they suspected somebody was in the house.” Davidson was still in her crib when the fire department arrived. “The door to the bedroom was partially open and she was in her crib just squirming so I snatched her up and got her to the front door and handed her off to the first firefighter who was there,” sai یادداشت های سر بزنگاه ...ادامه مطلب

Risk of heat-related health problems increases with age. Summer is here and it’s blazing hot! It is important to be aware of the health risks that higher temperatures can bring. Older adults and people with chronic medical conditions are particularly susceptible to hyperthermia and other heat-related illnesses. Knowing the signs and recognizing the dangers to avoid problems is essential. The National Institute on Aging (NIA), part of the National Institutes of Health, offers advice to help combat the dangers of hot weather. Heat fatigue, heat syncope (sudden dizziness after prolonged exposure to the heat), heat cramps, heat exhaustion and heat stroke are forms of hyperthermia, which is caused by a failure of the body’s heat-regulating mechanisms to deal with a hot environment. The combination of individual lifestyle, general health, and high temperatures can increase older adults’ risk for heat-related problems. Lifestyle factors can include not drinking enough fluids, living in یادداشت های سر بزنگاه ...ادامه مطلب

Garlic Cooking Tips and Hints Believe it or not, one raw garlic clove, finely minced or pressed releases more flavor than a dozen cooked whole cloves. When garlic cloves are cooked or baked whole, the flavor mellows into a sweet, almost nutty flavor that hardly resembles any form of pungency. This nutty flavor makes a surprisingly nice addition to desserts, such as brownies or even ice cream. Cooked, whole, unpierced cloves barely have any aroma at all, while raw garlic is the strongest in flavor. When sauteing garlic, be very careful not to bu it. The flavor tus intensely bitter, and you'll have to start over. There are a myriad of garlic presses available on the market, but I personally prefer the Zyliss/Susi. This is the queen of all garlic presses in my humble opinion, and although it may cost you $10-15, it is virtually indestructible, as well as a pleasure to use and clean. If you have a good garlic press, you don't even need to peel garlic cloves before pressing, whic یادداشت های سر بزنگاه ...ادامه مطلب
