News 9 Hours AgoNewser — John Johnson
It sounds like a crazy tabloid headline—humans are growing little horns in the back of their skulls. Except it comes not from a tabloid but a peer-reviewed study in Scientific Reports.
Australian researchers say more people, young ones especially, are showing up with what's known as an "enlarged external occipital protuberance" on the back of their skulls, just above the neck, reports the Washington Post.
The leading theory is that these spikes are caused by all the time people spend hunched over their phones. It's throwing the body out of whack, resulting in the formation of what's been variously described in coverage as bone spurs, phone bones, a bird's beak, and head horns.
(The study itself includes an X-ray photo.) If you have one, you'd likely be able to feel it with your fingers, notes the BBC.
It might even be visible as a little bump if you're bald. "... less

If you do not have paper clips or a stapler, how do you keep your papers that belong together, together? Just stack them in order and hope that they don’t get separated or switched around??!!! I’m not a fan of staplers, and prefer paper clips, but even a staple is better than just letting all you papers lay around all willy-nilly. That’s just WRONG. less

Last year, Michelle Yvonne Simons received the award of Australian of the Year for her contributions to quantum physics and its practical applications.She has launched Australia into "the space race of the computing era".
Simons, a Brit, formerly professor physics at Cambridge in England, said she emigrated to Australia and became a citizen because the country accepts young leaders in science, has public funds available to fund research, and its scientists have a culture of cooperative team spirit.
Since arriving in Australia from Britain in 1999, Professor Simmons' work at the University of NSW quantum physics department has helped develop leading technology on a global scale.
Five years ago, Professor Simmons and her team developed the world's first transistor made from a single atom, as well as the world's thinnest wire.
Now she is looking to build a quantum computer capable of solving problems in minutes, whi... less

Remember he said that the Saudi Crown Prince said he had nothing to do with the torture murder beheading dismembering of Khashoggi? Well the genius is doing it again.Sez maybe someone else shot down our drone. Maybe.He is always making excuses for the bad guys, the perps, the guilty. Due to cowardice perhaps since he does it so consistently?

Yes he has a token black man in his cabinet and he had a token black woman on his staff (remember AMAROSA?). That does not a bouguet make so again I wonder what is it about someone who is hostile and insulting to you that causes you to admire support defend and stick with him? Seriously?

Saves us bullets murdering them at the border.Don't matter to him no how no way if it's asylum seekers or "the enemy" bullets are meant to be used to kill living things and soldiers are meant to kill them. Period. End of story. The JOKE of a BLOKE hath SPOKE! He is the president. He gets to decide what is criminal and what is not.

Does he not remember that he was firstly and bestly described as unhinged? Why would he want to remind people of that?

You can call yourself anything you want of course. It's not forbidden. But it is ludicrous and ridiculous and silly beyond compare to call yourself something you will never be foreverly.

He should "enjoy" the same fate as he ordered for the journalist.All pedophiles who torture rape murder their victims. They should also be gifted with the exact method of dying. Just so they can personally enjoy what they inflict.Those are the top two that come to mind. What other perps deserve to "enjoy" the exact same fate they decree for their victims? Any ideas?

They will turn themselves inside out protecting him from his just reward which would be at the very least living out his days in solitary confinement and at the very best dying exactly the way he ordered the death of Kashoggi.

A symbiotic relationship between liar and the duped. They feed of each other and one another. I guess if they're both happy it's okay.
