Producers Report - 25 Feb 07

Producer: Jacinta
Contributor: Dean
Observer: Jaykaprash, Kathryn E

News: Phasing out incandescent lights, Hollywood is going green by removing the silver from the silver screen.

Features:
(1) Video games: Action video games improve vision and the military applications, surgeons perform better if they play video games, some general discussion about video games, their uses (eg NRMA driver training) and potential for rehabilitation.

(2) Sport-type things: What Jacinta did on Saturday (ie a five hour AROC adventure race), why she is sore (delayed onset muscles soreness) and what she can do to recover faster. Crazy marathon man who just can’t stop running.

Amazing animal facts: Stumpy lizards have the worst pregnancies, guinea-pigs stampede [pdf] (very scary!), and cows transported to the Middle East benefit from sports drinks.

Quirky bit at the end: spearmint tea could potentially be used to treat mild hirsutism in women
