(Photo: CopenhagenCycleChic.com) We can’t stop posting about why people should get on their bikes and ride, but it’s not completely irrational: Swapping your car for a bike does the environment big favors. We like. But a recent article from Rodale.com reminded us of another big reason we’re fans of getting around town on two wheels: It’s great for your health and even improves your mood. The article encourages us to act like we’re Danish; they’ve got the bike commute down pat. Over a third of Copenhagen’s population rides their bikes to work, and Danes enjoy low obesity rates and good physical fitness. They also happen to rank highly on world surveys of...

The police gave her a break and didn’t charge her. First thing that came to mind was the cake whose frosting a much younger Charlie drew his finger through in a supermarket, and the Mountain Dew he opened in the aisle of a Target, and the oranges his sticky fingers rearranged…..These kinds of things have beco...

The women who carry the virus are at significant risk for the disease and can truly benefit from this test. Women younger than 40 can still contract the virus but it tends to come and go and isn't as likely to lead to cancer. These under-40 women are sill better off receiving the standard Pap test, say researchers.Source: Good Housekeeping, May 2007Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | Comments (Source: The Cance...

One in 10 were binge drinkers -- they had more than four drinks per day. Thirteen percent were weekend bingers -- they had more than 10 drinks between Friday and Sunday. A drink is considered one bottle of beer, wine, or spirit. In Denmark, each unit translate into 12g of al...
