A new study has found that playing a musical instrument as a child could have mental benefits later in life. Researchers at the University of Edinburgh determined that musicians do better on cognitive ability tests as adults aged 70-82 than those who never played an instrument. Why? The scientists aren’t sure, but it’s believed that the abilities it takes to play an instrument, such as reading sheet music and coordinating hand movements, can strengthen neural connections in the brain and overall brain function.

Angelina
Jolie is flipping the bird to someone. Her tattoo artist revealed the
actress got a mystery tattoo on both of her middle fingers — and
fans are having a field day guessing at what it could say. Mr. K, who
works at the celebrity-loved Bang Bang shop in New York, shared a
snap on Instagram of Jolie’s fingers with the fresh ink blurred
out, to keep her new design hidden. He tagged Jolie, writing: “Still
can’t believe that I actually grabbed her hand and tattooed her,”
and asking followers to “Guess what she got on her palm?” The
guesses started coming in hot, with references to her ex-Brad Pitt
the most popular option.
UPDATE
Angelina
Jolie’s highly-speculated-about mystery tattoo design has been
revealed, after tattoo artist Mr. K teased her mysterious middle
finger art on Instagram. Mr. K left fans wondering if it was a
reference to her ex-husband, Brad Pitt. But paparazzi pics taken
earlier this week show that the tat isn’t a direct message to her
ex-husband at all, but rather a small dagger designed to look like
it’s piercing her skin. And now, Mr. K has clarified that her ink
was “NOTHING” related to Pitt. The “Hackers” star has been a
longtime lover of sharp symbols and has her own an extensive knife
collection.

A study shows drinking a lot of beer doesn’t give you a beer gut.
You’ve seen it play out a million times: You and your significant other spend the evening together – but apart. One is on the phone or tablet. The other is watching TV or playing video games. Or maybe one is reading, while the other finishes up some work on the laptop. Is there wedge in your relationship? Quite the opposite. According to psychologists, enjoying separate things, while physically together – known as “parallel play” – can actually strengthen your relationship with your partner. In an article, psychotherapist Sarah Breen told Well + Good that parallel play “can facilitate both increased independence and closeness between partners”. How? Parallel play isn’t about being independent of one another, it’s about getting to be yourself and enjoying what brings you pleasure, while knowing your partner is right there if you happen to need them — or want to talk about what you are doing.

A small town in France has gone viral for marking a busy intersection with overlapping white lines in order to confuse motorists – and force them to slow down. The town of BaunĂ© is home to about 1,700 people, but it deals with heavy traffic on a daily basis, because of its location near 2 major roads. Some of the roughly 2,300 vehicles that pass through every day reach speeds of over 100 km/h (60mph), even though the town has clearly marked speed limit signs of 30 km/h (18mph). So, local authorities came up with the idea of using confusing road markings in the form of overlapping continuous lines. And it worked!
