Attention training games.
I'll be delving into ADHD and looking
I wonder how games like HALO that force a child to split their attention with a HUD or Radar affect the child?

Experimental influences on multimodal perception of emotion.
"This study suggests that women are picking up on facial cues that are perhaps related to paternal qualities,'' said James Roney, a University of California at Santa Barbara psychologist and lead author of the study. "The more they perceived the men as liking kids, the more likely they could see having a longer-term relationship."

"Our results show that an unconsciously perceived signal of threat, such as a brief facial expression of fear, can still bubble up and unwittingly influence social judgments and how we act," said Paller's colleague Wen Li, also at Northwestern.
"Experts said evolution has apparently programmed women to recognize men who might be interested in propagating the species by raising a family."
We're all programmed... that's why women seem so interested in 'financially stable' men and find them more interesting.
The study wasn't all bad news for men not interested in settling down. It found that women can look at men's faces and figure out which of them have the highest testosterone levels. Those men -- rated the most masculine by the women -- turn out to be just the kind of guys they would want for a fling.
Itcosts 285 dollars for a test of testosterone levels... hmm... I wonder if there are any companies doing tests for statistics... maybe I could find a study. I'm always interested in learing more about myself.
Though I guess my testosterone levels are normal or higher, my facial hair grows fast... and I think about women too often.

Really interesing. I forgot about pheremones for a while.
"Romantic love is one of the most powerful of all human experiences," says Helen Fisher, an anthropologist at Rutgers University. "It is definitely more powerful than the sex drive."
