Most us us can barely muster the energy to get out of bed and into the shower in the morning.
So imagine if you could extend your nap time by a precious 10 minutes or so – while you were being washed.
German company Dornbracht have actually made it possible to roll out of your bed and into the shower (assuming you sleep in the bathroom) by creating a device which washes you while you are lying down.
A widely available cancer drug has shown remarkable success in reversing Alzheimer’s disease in mice, raising hope of a breakthrough against incurable dementia in humans, US researchers said Thursday.
Mice treated with the drug, known as bexarotene, became rapidly smarter and the plaque in their brains that was causing their Alzheimer’s started to disappear within hours, said the research in the journal Science.
“We were shocked and amazed,” lead author Gary Landreth of the Department of Neurosciences at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine in Ohio told AFP.
“Things like this had never, ever been seen before,” he said.
A 32-year-old model who held the record for the world’s largest implants has walked away from a car crash after her breasts acted as an airbag.
Sheyla Hershey, who has 38KKK breasts, was driving home to Houston, Texas, after a Super Bowl party on Sunday when she crashed into a tree.
The mother was charged with drink-driving after the incident and allegedly was not wearing a seatbelt when she lost control of her Ford Mustang.
Websites like Facebook may actually be good for you, according to the latest psychological study on users.
Researchers found using social networks can spark a natural high leading to a relaxed heart rate and lower levels of stress and tension.
While it seems like a solitary activity, the interaction with others via these networks has a positive effect on body and mind, said joint American and Italian research.
And that buzz could explain the massive success of social networking in general and Facebook in particular.
As a recipe for losing weight, tucking into a slice of chocolate cake at breakfast would seem an unlikely fantasy.
But a full breakfast that includes a sweet treat really can contribute to weight loss success, researchers claim.
A team from Tel Aviv University found that eating pudding as part of a balanced 600-calorie breakfast that also includes proteins and carbohydrates, can help dieters to lose more weight – and keep it off in the long run.
The key is to indulge in the morning, when the body’s metabolism is at its most active and we are better able to work off the extra calories throughout the day, according to Professor Daniela Jakubowicz and her team.

Pepsi – King’s Court Super Bowl
I’ll never forget the day that I went for a cake tasting with a pair of my brides. We arrived to a bakery where I’d been plenty of times before and had great experiences. When she saw us, the assistant who greeted us that day said, “So, which one of you is the bride?”
I get it. Three women. Surely one of them must be the bride, another the Maid of Honor and the third a sister or the planner — or anyone but another bride. Right?
I was fairly horrified, even though I knew my clients would ultimately have a good experience if they did choose that cake (they didn’t). I was horrified because it’s my job to make sure this doesn’t happen, and that day I failed myself and my clients. I should have called ahead to remind the bakery that the appointment was with a same-sex couple, even though I mentioned it when making the appointment. I should have and I didn’t.

You’ve just checked Facebook for the latest status update and Twitter for any new tweets.
So what do you do now? Check them again of course.
According to a study of people’s everyday desires, resisting the urge to check social networking sites for updates was harder than saying no to that second glass of wine.
For 50 years, the Rolling Stones have offended the sensibilities of squeamish types around the world. Next stop on the culture-clash tour: the small northern German town of Luechow.
The city’s new Rolling Stones Fan Museum hasn’t even opened, but it’s already attracted controversy because of fixtures in its men’s room — specifically, mouth-shaped urinals.
The urinals are based on the band’s famous logo, a pair of luscious open red lips with a tongue hanging out. The logo, created in 1971 by art designer John Pasche, was modeled after lead singer Mick Jagger’s famously rubbery mouth.
