New results suggest that the holographic principle also holds in flat spaces. Our own universe could in fact be two dimensional and only appear three dimensional -- just like a hologram.

"There are immense medical benefits to exercise; it can help as much as medicine to address some health concerns," said a national expert on the benefits of physical activity. "Because exercise has medicinal as well as other benefits, I was surprised that medical schools didn't spend more time on it."
If you're finding it difficult to stick to a weight-loss diet, scientists say you can likely blame AGRP neurons -- hunger-sensitive cells in your brain.

New experiments show these neurons are responsible for the unpleasant feelings of hunger that make snacking irresistible. The negative emotions associated with hunger can make it hard to maintain a diet and lose weight, and these neurons help explain that struggle.
Are you afraid of a STEM related field because it might mean giving up your sense of style in exchange for research or some other boring thing? If this is how it is believed that is not even close to the truth! STEM fields are in fact the pillars of... moreAre you afraid of a STEM related field because it might mean giving up your sense of style in exchange for research or some other boring thing? If this is how it is believed that is not even close to the truth! STEM fields are in fact the pillars of great innovations. In fact, with a STEM degree, you could engineer the next big thing in fashion.
Confusion over date labeling leads to billions of pounds of food waste every year. An expert explains the difference between “use-by,” “sell-by,” and “best-by” dates.

The boys remain critically ill Monday at a Philadelphia hospital. Criminal investigators are examining how and why the bug killer got sprayed in a room beneath the family's rented villa two days before they arrived in mid-March.
