Working together,they created what is now called the direct method for determining molecularstructures, which has allowed scientists to effectively study and copycomplex organic molecules to continue further study.Jerome Karie was awardedthe Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1985.Although he was disappointed that theNobel committee had ignored Isabella’s contribution to that work, she was unfazed.At that point, she had already won more awards and prize money for herexperimental work than he had.（1）What did Isabella Lugoski do when she first met Jerome Karie?A .

But there’s more. A new study discoveredthatreading more than 3.5 hours per week actually increased a person’s lifespan by 23 percent-about 12years for the people involved in the study.The studywas led by a group of researchers at Yale University. It looked at 3,635people, both men and women but all older than 50.The researchers divided theminto three categories: those who didn’t read books; those who read up to 3.5hours a week; those who read more than 3.5 hours a week.After theresearchers adjusted for factors like education, health and income, the datashowed that, on average, those who read about 3.5 hours a week were 17 percentless likely to die.Inaddition, the study examined people who read newspapers and magazines and foundthat they were 11 percent less likely to die than non­readers, but only if theyspent more than seven hours reading each week. That may be due to the differentforms of these items. When people read newspapers or magazines, they tend toskim the material rather than read it fully. AvniBavishi, the study’s leader,said, “We believe people need to know, learn and understand more thingswhen they are reading books, because they’re longer and there are morecharacters, more plots to follow, and more connections to make.”From allof this, the authors concluded that, as with a healthy diet and exercise, booksappear to promote a “significant survival advantage”.Clearly,there is a need for more study.

You may want to try plogging, or picking uplitter while jogging. Strange as it may sound, the new “sport” isbecoming popular with runners worldwide? Many of whom are posting photos ofthemselves and friends holding bags of trash on social media.Ploggingis the idea of Erik Alstrom. In 2016, after moving to Stockholm in northernSweden, Alstrom showed concern over the amount of trash on theroad during hisdaily bike ride to work.
