Let’s See What’s in the News Today: 11/27/2011

This is a late post.  Usually I try to post something at least once a week, but school has been catching up to me and I’ve been busy.  We’ll see if the holidays and school will keep me busier.

Will

  • A very interesting article about those who have strong or weak will power.  You’ve heard of physical fatigue and mental fatigue.  Those who have weak will power have decision fatigue.  The findings are that glucose helps replenish will power throughout the day.  This is generally why we want sweets at the end of the day because of all the decisions we had to make throughout the day.

About shaunmiller

I have just completed a visiting position as an assistant professor at Dalhousie University. My ideas are not associated with my employer; they are expressions of my own thoughts and ideas. Some of them are just musings while others could be serious discussions that could turn into a bigger project. Besides philosophy, I enjoy martial arts (Kuk Sool Won), playing my violin, enjoying coffee around town, and experimenting with new food.
