Nicole is growing up every day. As time passes by, along with the new skills mastered has come a talent for getting into trouble. After the first birthday she gets more curious, fearless and mobile, while still clueless about the consequences of her actions. Sometimes when you enter the washing room, you'll find the whole roll of toilet paper unrolled and lying on the ground. Sometimes when you enter the study you find she is emptying the contents of drawers onto the floor. One time when she was trying to pull a drawer out, it fell of on the floor. Immediately, she burst into a big cry.

I understand babies don't know right from wrong, and their actions can't be considered naughty, because they learn about the world by experimenting, observing cause and effete. I'm not going to stop her explorations most of the time, but I'm worried about the safety issue indeed. Before, I could deposit her in a safe spot lo keep both home and her from harm; now, no such paradise exists. And for the first time the question of discipline has come to my mind.

There is no question that children need discipline. According to Magda Cerber, an infant expert, "Lack of discipline is not kindness; it is neglect. "In her eyes, loving our children does not mean keeping them happy all the time and avoiding power struggles. Often it is doing what feels hardest—saying "No" and meaning it.

For me, carrying out effective discipline is one of the toughest tasks of parenting, a seemingly never-ending test of wills between Nicole and me. But the good thing is that, although I continue to meet opposition from Nicole when I stop her potentially dangerous actions, I find gradually she accepts limits. Now she has got the idea that they're things she can't play with and can't do. Can't play with laptops. Can't touch eclectic wires. Not everything into mouth.

"Waiting to introduce discipline into a child's life much later than len months could make the task much more difficult. . . "(What to Expect the First Year, by Heidi Murk-off) I am so grateful to have this book on hand. It makes a first-time mother a qualified caregiver.

According to the American Chemistry Council, in 2018 in the United States, 27million tons of plastic ended up in landfills compared to just 3.1 million tons that were recycled. Worldwide the numbers are similarly bad, with just 9% of plastic being recycled according to a recent OFCD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development) report. The statistics are even worse for certain types of pastie. For example, out of 80, 000 lens of polystyrene containers generated in the United States, a negligible amount(less than 5, 000 tons) was recycled.

Now, researchers at the University of Queensland have found that a species of worm with an appetite for polystyrene could be the key to plastic recycling on a mass scale. They discovered that the Zophobas morio also called "super-worm" can eat through polystyrene, thanks to a bacterial enzyme (酶) in its "Stomach". Dr. Chris Rilke and his team from UQ's School of Chemistry and Molecular Bioscience fed super-worms different diets over a three-week period, with some given polystyrene, some outer skin of grain separated from the flour, and others pul on a fasling diet.

"We found the super-worms fed a dict of just polystyrene not only survived, but even had slight weight gains," Dr. Rilke said. "This suggests the worms can get energy from the polypropylene, most likely with the help of their internal micro-organisms. They are like mini recycling plants, tearing up the polystyrene with their mouths and then feeding it to the bacteria in their ‘stomach'. "

Co-author of the research, PhD candidate Jiarui Sun, said they aimed to grow the bacteria in the lab and further test their ability to break down polystyrene. "We can then look into how we can upgrade this process lo a level required for an entire recycling plant," Ms. Sun said.

Anyone who's tried different weight-loss diets is probably familiar with theirpitfalls. Low-calorie diets often leave you tired and hungry. Low-fat diets are also tough to follow and, contrary to popular belief, they do not seem to prevent heart disease.

Another diet trend, intermittent fasting, takes a different approach. Rather than limiting what you cat, this diet limits when you cat. It normally involves eating only during a certain time window, usually eight hours, over a single day. For example, you would eat only during the hours of 9 a. m. to 5 p. m. and then fast during the other 16 hours. For some people, that change may be easier to manage, says Dr. Eric Rim, professor of epidemiology and nutrition at the Harvard T. H. Chan School of Public Health.

Short-termism studies suggest that people stick to intermittent fasting diets as well as or better than they do to other diets. And according to a 2019 review article in the journal Nutrients, intermittent fasting promotes weight loss and may reduce risk factors linked to heart disease, including diabetes, high blood pressure, and unhealthy blood lipid levels.

"However, we are currently unsure about how well this diet works over the long term, "says Dr. Rim, noting that there are just two long-term studies of intermittent fasting, each lasting a year. Nor are there large populations of people who've followed this eating pattern for years. That's in contrast to two other diets linked to a healthy heart and healthy body size—the Mediterranean diet and a vegetarian diet.

Some experts add that intermittent fasting diets typically don't specify what foods you should eat. "As a nutritional epidemiologist, that makes me a little uncomfortable," Dr. David Mushen admits. Eating burgers and French fries five days a week and a single breakfast sandwich on your low-calorie day wouldn't be-healthy, he says. But with any diet, it's often a good idea to ease into the changes. You could start by trying a 5:2 diet or time-resisted eating. Once you start losing weight, you can gradually introduce more healthy foods, he suggests.
