The project evaluated the 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia based on 21 factors, including diet and nutrition, physical health, mental health and social well-being. Alabama\'s low ranking was based on factors such as its high incidence of smoking and diabetes, according to a press release from Beautiful Minds. Alabama\'s strengths include high levels of religious or spiritual activities and adequate amounts of sleep.

US military begins work on brain implants that can restore lost memories, experiences
2014-02-10 19:07:03| Extremetech
DARPA, at the behest of the US Department of Defense, is developing a black box brain implant -- an implant that will be wired into a soldier's brain and record their memories. If the soldier then suffers memory loss due to brain injury, the implant will then be used to restore those memories. The same implant could also be used during training or in the line of duty, too -- as we've reported on in the past, stimulating the right regions of the brain can improve how quickly you learn new skills, reduce your reaction times, and more.
