The simple act of watching someone else do something uplifting or a good deed motivates us to also do good. At least that’s what researchers found in a recent demonstration of this effect at the University of Plymouth. In two experiments, researchers (Schnall et al., 2010) tested the level of altruistic behaviors amongst female students by asking them to view TV clips of three kinds — a neutral clip showing scenes from a nature documentary, an uplifting segment from “The Oprah Winfrey Show” showing musicians thanking their mentors, or a clip from a British comedy, intended to induce mirth. When asked if they wanted to participate in another study (in the first experiment), ...

The Hulka clip is only 7 mm in width and does not cause any inflammation of the fallopian tubes. The pregnancy rate after tubal reversal Hulka clip sterilization is 76% at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center.

Women whose tubes have been 'tied' by Filshie clips have a 75% pregnancy rate at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center.

Let's try this classic experiment, conceived by Simons and Chabris for their study on sustained inattentional blindness (PDF), and now packaged in a nicer production. You will watch a brief video clip showing two teams, and your challenge is to count the TOTAL number of times that the basketballs change hands.

The study involved thirty-three participants, each of which was asked to watch a video and then make a pricing decision. Half of subjects watched a video clip which was sad, about a death of someone’s mother; the other half watched a “neutral” clip, about the Great Barrier Reef. After watching the video, the participants were required to write an essay response to the video and then asked if they wanted to trade a portion of the fee they were paid to do the study, in exchange for a water bottle. The group that watched the sad video reportedly paid an average of 3.7 times as much for the water bottle than the par...

It is best to perform a type of tubal ligation that can be reversed at a later time, should the need arise. The best choice of a tubal ligation requested by a young woman with no children is the clip method (either Hulka clip or Filshie clip).

They block the fallopian tubes, but no tubal segments are clamped, removed, or burned. The Falope ring is also referred to as the tubal ring or tubal band.
