Posture Affects Standing, and Not Just the Physical Kind

http://mobile.nytimes.com/blogs/well/2015/12/28/posture-affects-standing-and-not-just-the-physical-kind/ A distraught wife begged me to write about the importance of good posture. “My husband sits for many hours a day slouched over his computer,” she said. “I’ve told him repeatedly this is bad for his body — he should sit up straight — but he pays no attention to me. He reads you every week. Maybe he’ll listen to you.” So here goes: Yes, dear sir, listen to your wife. Slouching is bad. It’s bad not only for your physical health, but also for your emotional and social well-being. More about this in a bit. Without delay, get that computer on a proper surface (laps can encourage slouching) and get a supportive chair that enables you to sit up straight with your head aligned directly over your shoulders and hips when your eyes are on the screen. As a short person who is prone to back pain, I have long been aware of the value of good posture, and seating that minimizes

If Doctors Learned To Cook, They Might Give Better Advice

http://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2015/12/26/460803440/if-doctors-learned-to-cook-they-might-give-better-advice Is your doctor your go-to for nutrition advice? Neither is mine. And why would I expect that? Fewer than a quarter of doctors say they've had sufficient training to provide nutritional advice to their patients, according to recent polls . We all know about the Hippocratic oath, but there's that other thing Hippocrates said: "Let food be thy medicine." For the American medical profession to live up to that, there'd have to be more than one doctor in the country widely known for prescribing broccoli . Most medical schools aren't particularly dedicated to teaching their students about food. That's beginning to change , though, as schools like Tulane University School of Medicine in New Orleans start thinking differently. Would-be doctors at Tulane aren't just learning about nutrition. They're learning how to cook.

How I created a 350m software company

http://techcrunch.com/2015/12/26/how-i-created-a-350m-software-company-knowing-nothing-about-software/ I’ve always wanted to make a lot of money, have people pay a lot of attention to me and do a lot of exciting things. I just never knew how. Many of my friends who are founders of their own companies tell me how they exhibited the entrepreneurial spirit as a kid — they sold candy out of their backpacks, had a landscaping business during the summer, etc. They created value and learned the virtues of hard work early on. But that wasn’t me. I created a horse-racing simulation game in Applesoft BASIC in Manhattan Beach Middle School’s computer classroom and ran a small gambling operation. I mean, who could blame me? The teachers left that class completely unattended during recess and lunch, as if they couldn’t fathom how any kid could get into trouble playing with those large calculating typewriters. However, making a few dollars to buy an endless stream of Atari games
