(Lisa Trank) As modern and rational beings, we have come to rely on certain irrefutable natural laws. The sun rises and sets. The planet rotates around the sun. Out of all of these, the laws of physics and thermodynamics, a branch of physics, have defined humans’ relationship to heat, temperature, energy, work, radiation, and matter. But what happens when the laws of physics are defied? Such may be the case with instances in which scientists claim to have broken the laws of thermodynamics.

Stay Active: Not Finding New Goals Post-retirement Associated with Greater Cognitive Decline
(Justin Deschamps) To be alive means to be active, dynamic, and playful, ideally. Human beings are not meant to stop learning, creating, or sitting mindlessly in front of a TV for hours upon hours, especially during the latter stages of life. The fact our culture has taken the invaluable resource of wisdom accumulated by our elders and cut us off as a people is tragic. But we can restore this link. The following study indirectly supports this conjecture by showing that as we age, we need to continue to generate new dreams, goals, and visions of a fulfilled life. I argue community is the ultimate gateway for this fulfillment. And in the absence of that integrated community, we can do other things to keep our spirits alive and active.
