Science of sex

Besides the reason Mother Nature intended, sex has so many more personal health and happiness benefits than you might think. Did you know that having sex when you're older is good for your health ? Or that women want it just as much as men? (Actually, you probably did already know about that one.) The only issue with sex is that we don't talk about it enough. The typically taboo topic often makes us blush at the mere utterance of the word, but it's time to break free from our sheepish shackles and be empowered by it.it—these surprising things will make you sexier
 .Of all human activities, sex is possibly the ultimate mind-body experience. Reproductive organs often steal the spotlight in sex ed classes, but male and female sexual attraction responses engage senses and body parts from head to toe.One physiological response to attraction is pupil dilation. Studies have confirmed that heterosexual men rate women with wider pupils as more comely and feminine. A majority of heterosexual women, on the other hand, prefer moderately dilated pupils among men, which indicate interest -- not unbridled lust.Sexual attraction can do some less-than-attractive things to the human body. Case in point: sweaty palms. The classic symptom of attraction is the result of a release of norepinephrine in the brain that stimulates sweat glands into turning on their waterworks. The palms are especially affected by that dampening action since they're covered in up to 3,000 sweat glands per inch.
       Studies have found that the human nose guides sexual attraction -- and not in the dubiously pheromone-infused perfumes kind of way. Replicated studies have asked women to rate the body odor scents from men's undershirts. Over and over, the sweetest smelling were from men with the most diverse immune system makeup. In that way, without even knowing it, the women's noses were silently sussing out a man's genes to find the optimal fit.
Although a recent Australian study debunked the theory that a deeper male voice belies stronger sperm, other studies nevertheless support sexual preferences for bass notes. In addition to assessing lower-pitched male voices as more masculine, women also associate deeper voices with authority, larger body size and physical attractiveness.

 A prevailing theory of why humans kiss on the lips as a manifestation of sexual attraction is that it naturally evolved over time from sniffing each other, and the first known documentation of a romantic kiss came in a 1000 B.C. Indian text called the Mahabharata. In addition to exchanging affection, men also pass along testosterone in their saliva during lip-locks
Why does a cultural association between sex and toes exist? Anecdotally, many men and women report contracting their toes when they climax. One explanation for this could lie in where toe movement and sexual sensation is processed in the brain. In the male brain, at least, the somatosensory neurons responsible for genital sensation are nestled next to those devoted to the toes. Since toes and genitalia are neighbors in the brain, it lends some nestled next to those devoted to the toes. Since toes and genitalia are neighbors in the brain, it lends some neurological insight to the toe-orgasm association -- as well as the existence of foot fetishes.

Tin ore

    Tin ore and columbite are two minerals that co-occur in the form of heavy black grains like gunpowder, mixed with sand and gravel. They are deposited in alluvial beds of old river valleys and subsequently buried under layers of soil overburden. The ore is mined by the open cast method. To do this, a powerful machine called a dragline is used to first remove the overburden, and then to scoop out the tin ore which it piles in heaps called a monitor is used to direct a powerful jet of water to this tin wash, which washes it down through a series of sluice boxes. Here, the black, heavy tin grains together with other minerals like columbite, now called tin concentrates, sink to the bottom of the boxes, while the water carries the dirt and sand away.     At this stage, the columbite grains are separated from the pure tin concentrates. The concentrates are then sent to factories to be smelted refined and moulded in bars called tin ingots. It is in the form of either ...

Natural soil

 Natural soils are influenced by rainfall and temperature,heavy rain causes the soil to become leached. High temperatures increase the rate of decomposition of organic matter in the soil, thereby lowering its humus content. Thus, climatic conditions tend to produce poor soils in the tropics and rich soils in the temperate regions. Besides climate and vegetation, the parent rock material also contributes to the quality of the soil. For example volcanic rocks tend to produce fertile soils.    Laterite, a red soil which is a product of leaching, is commonly found in the tropics. It is composed mainly of iron and aluminium compounds,and poor in humus and essential plant nutrients, such as phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium. The black and brown soil of the temperate grasslands are the world's richest soils, with a high mineral and humus content. The light coloured desert soils tend to be very rich in minerals but have a low humus content.    Mainly the soils ar...

READING AND UNDERSTANDING

All reading is geared to understanding. There would be no point in reading if we did not understand what we are reading. However there are many different obstacles in the way of easy understanding of a passage. It is your task as a reader to actively seek to break down the barriers to understanding.    One block to understanding is caused by references in the passage to things that are outside it. Pronoun are the first examples of words that refer to people and objects. Sometimes, it is easy to follow the reference at other times, it is more difficult. Look at the opening sentence of the passage you've just read that begins this way  "She was waiting for us:small, dowdy, dirty..."  Who was waiting? Who was the person waiting for? (Perhaps you would also like to know why she was waiting.)Answers to these questions will surely help you to understand and thus follow the reference. The first thing to do is to ask questions like the ones we have just asked and to read t...
