4 Ways to Get Firm and Cute by Lowering Firmicutes. Children wise to fear hand dryers, and 13-year-old proves it with published paper. Children who say hand dryers "hurt my ears" are correct.
A new research paper by that very title has just been published in Paediatrics & Child Health, Canada's premier peer-reviewed pediatric journal. And the researcher, 13-year-old Nora Keegan, has been studying the issue since she was nine years old. "In Grade 4, I noticed that my ears kind of hurt after the hand dryer," Keegan told the Calgary Eyeopener.

And there’s little evidence that brain-training games are any better than placebo. “So,” wondered science journalist Caroline Williams, “if brain training isn’t the way to apply it, what should we be doing?” Williams is the author of My Plastic Brain: One Woman’s Yearlong Journey to Discover if Science Can Improve Her Mind. The Verge spoke to Williams about her expectations, more successful (and failed) experiments, and how to avoid the hype. Photo: Ann Ayerst What was your approach going into these experiments?
I went with an open mind.
