“Inattention Blindness”

This is an example of what is called “inattention blindness” or “change blindness”. The idea is that people often miss large changes in their visual field. This has been shown in many experiments. So what does this mean if you are designing a website or something on a computer screen? It means that you can’t assume that just because something is on the screen means that people see it. This is especially true when you refresh a screen and make one change on it. People may not realize they are even looking at a different screen. Remember, just because something happens in the visual field doesn’t mean that people are consciously aware of it.

Honey of Skin

Honey is known for all of its amazing benefits but in case you have forgotten just how many amazing things that honey can do for you, here is a quick little reminder. Just remember, it does not benefit you solely internally, but also externally! Let’s see how:
Heavy Duty Moisturizer: Honey is known to be a heavy-duty moisturizer that will continue to keep you hydrated and moisturized much longer than most lotions and creams, and without the negative effects of leaving your skin feeling greasy or oily when used. Protects Skin: Honey protects the skin from damage by acting as a shield against outside factors, such as a dirty environment or over exposure to the sun. Honey cannot stop the damage that too much sun can cause, but it can absorb a bit of the initial exposure to minimize some of the damage. Promotes Faster Healing: Honey promotes faster healing on and within the skin, minimizing skin damage more quickly and helping the skin look better faster than other products. Extra Nutrients: Honey is one of the most effective ways to add extra nutrients to your skin that it desperately needs. Eating a healthy diet is one great way to get these nutrients, but honey has a well-balanced set of nutrients that can help your skin become healthy in a much shorter amount of time. Antibacterial Effects: Honey has antibacterial effects which will help your skin to fight bacteria that it comes in contact with or that comes from within the body and skin, such as acne. These effects will help put up a greater defense against all forms of bacteria for as long as you keep using it. Honey Lots of Antioxidants: Honey has a huge amount of antioxidants that can help slow the effects of aging considerably. Honey is even thought to be one of the gifts Mother Nature created as her own version of the Fountain of Youth. Honey is one of those ingredients that can do it all and should not be overlooked. It has the power to help skin where it is lacking and heal the body in ways that other products simply cannot do. If your house does not have a cute little teddy bear dispenser in it yet, then make sure to buy some at the grocery store and place it right in your bathroom, next to your cleanser and moisturizer! Honey is sweet…in so many ways!

College Traditions

Midnight Breakfast

What better way is there to prepare for the first day of finals at Bernard College than by meeting up at midnight for a breakfast of epic proportions?

Bladderball

Check this out. This Yale tradition, which started in 1954, involves student teams vying for control of a six-foot inflatable ball. Administration officials banned it because the students kept falling into and disrupting traffic, but "revival games" continue to this day.

Hump It Aggies

All Texas A & M sporting events are celebrated during the game via a dance wherein students bend over, place their hands on their knees, stick out their booties and yell, "Hump it Aggies!"

Primal Scream

At approximately 10pm, on the night prior to the beginning of finals, students at Careleton College stick their heads out their windows and scream away all their pain, anguish and frustration, after which they return to studying.

Wacky Walk

Hate boring commencement marches? Then attend Stanford, where you'll end your journey with a "Wacky Walk" in which you and your peers strut your success while wearing creative outfits!

Pumpkin Drop

The folks at MIT are into way more than just computers. They're also into dropping pumpkins from a roof on Halloween night. Why? To study the physics of falling objects, of course

Little 500

The Little 500 represents a week chockablock with concerts, parties and a full-fledged college bike race celebrated at Indiana University every April.

Ledyard Challenge

The folks at Dartmouth are no joke. Twice a year, students strip and then try to swim from the New Hampshire side of the Connecticut River to the Concord side. Once they reach it, they then must return back by foot.

Ditch Day

Every year, during the spring, all the seniors at Caltech suddenly disappear from campus and leave behind super-duper complex puzzles, mazes and other challenges for the school's underclassmen (FRESHMEN!) to complete.

Mirror Lake Jump

Though discouraged by administrators to participate, many Ohio State University students amass at Mirror Lake on the night before an Ohio State vs. Michigan football game. Why? So they can risk hypothermia and death by jumping into a frozen lake.

Serenading

Hate Christmas carolers? Then stay away from Vassar College, where every year students walk through campus, battle singing and, of course, lacing one another with ketchup and water balloons!

Hoop Rolling

There's nothing quite like hundreds of Wellesley College female students gathering together to race their hoops -- and we don't mean their earrings!

Birthday Fountain Dunking

Wish people would notice your birthdays more? Then you'll love Occidental College, where your peers are apt to surprise you by kidnapping you and then dunking your birthday butt in the Oxy Fountain!

Toast Toss

After the competion of the 3rd quarter of football games, University of Pennsylvania students gather together to sing "Drink a Highball" and toss toast -- so as to "toast" their team -- into the air.

 Naked Quad Run

The Naked Quad Run at Tufts University allows students a once-in-a-lifetime moment to literally run naked laps around the Rez Quad building on the last night of classes prior to finals week

What You Can do at Coca Cola

Coca-Cola has been around for over 100 years, since 1886. It was first used as medicine and was claimed to cure many ailments, including impotence. Through the years, Coca-Cola has become the most popular soft drink in the world, but, did you know it has other uses besides refreshing us on a hot day?

• Tired of scraping off that pesky ice from your windshield during winter? Simply pour a can of Regular Coke over it and wait. You'll be amazed!
• Have you ever heard that the only way to soothe a jellyfish sting is to pee on it? This is not only gross, but untrue. Instead, pour some Coca-Cola over the sting. The relief will be almost instantaneous.
• Coca-Cola contains citric acid, which makes it the perfect glass and window cleaner. No more harsh chemicals, just pour Coke over your windows and wipe them down with a moistened cloth.
• The crud that accumulates around the terminals of your car battery can be removed by pouring Coke over them, letting it sit for a few minutes, and then hosing off the residue. For extra hard spots, simply use a sponge to rub off the gunk.
• If you find your garden overrun by slugs and other bugs during the Spring and Summer months, pour some Coke into small containers and set them out in your yard. The sugar will attract the bugs and the acid in the Coke will kill them. This works on roaches too.
• Once in a while you may find that you, or your pet, came too close to a skunk and got sprayed. Using tomato juice might be effective but it's messy and hard to clean. Instead, pour Coke all over yourself or your pet while in the shower, make sure to use a lot, so all areas are covered. Wait for a few minutes and then rinse off. You will smell fresh and clean once you're done, and so will your pet.
• To remove those ugly stains, simply pour Regular Coke into your toilet bowl over the dirty areas and wait for 10 minutes. The acid in the Coke will break up even the most difficult stains
• The boys went fishing and now their clothing smells so bad you want to throw it out? Salvage stinky clothing by pouring some Coke on your laundry during the wash cycle.
• For perfect curls, even if your hair is straight, leave an open can of Coke out overnight. Then pour it over your long hair and let it sit for a few minutes. Rinse thoroughly.
