Your Brain Knows You’ve Quenched Your Thirst Before Your Body Does

Thirst is one of the most basic human signals that allows for our survival. For decades, research on the subject presumed that the brain only knows thirst has been quenched once the water enters the bloodstream. However, research on mice, published in Nature, has found a set of thirst-predicting neurons.
“There are many things you experience every day when you become thirsty or drink water that can’t be explained by [the old] model,” Zachary A. Knight, coauthor of the study and assistant professor in the department of physiology at University of California, San Francisco, tells mental_floss.
He explains that if you’re thirsty and you drink a glass of water, your thirst feels quenched within seconds, “but it takes up to 20 minutes for that water going down your throat to actually reach your bloodstream and change anything.” Likewise, Knight says, it’s a common experience to feel thirsty within seconds of eating something salty—and that response also poses a question: “When that food is still in your mouth or going down your throat, there’s been no change in your blood,” he notes. “How does your brain know that there’s going to be this change in the blood that occurs 10 to 20 minutes into the future?”
Knight and his lab team suspected the answers to these questions resided in a deep brain structure known as the subfornical organ (SFO). Thanks to advances in optogenetics—using tiny fiber-optic probes in the brain to stimulate neurons—and methods of encoding fluorescent proteins into individual neurons, researchers were able to view real-time neural activity in the brains of thirsty mice.
When they stimulated neurons in the SFO of the mice, the animals drank water. Similarly, giving the mice salt stimulated these “thirst” neurons. When they blocked the neurons altogether, the mice didn’t drink water at all—even when their physiology suggested they should. “What was very surprising, and also explains a lot … is that these neurons that people had thought for a long time just sensed the signals in the blood actually receive a second class of signals from the mouth and the oral cavity,” Knight says.
But that’s not the most exciting part, he says. The signals that come from the mouth and oral cavity “basically tell these neurons, on a rapid timescale, about food and water that’s going down the throat in a way that allows these neurons to essentially predict how that food or water is going to change the osmolarity of the blood 20 minutes in the future, when it’s absorbed.”
So how do these thirst neurons know that it’s water going down a person’s throat? Knight says the physical sensation or viscosity of the liquid in your mouth might be picked up on by your nerves, which then send the information to the brain. Another important component—which Knight calls “the most surprising result”—appears to be temperature, “because when you drink water, you’re cooling down your throat” in most cases. “The amount that your throat has been cooled probably loosely correlates with how much water you drank in the very recent term,” Knight says.
Thus, it may explain why people often crave cold water when thirsty or feel quenched by drinking a cold beverage, even if it’s not water. “It’s one of the cues these thirst neurons use to figure out how much water you’ve just been drinking,” he suggests.
Indeed, in one experiment, they found that simply applying a piece of cold metal to a mouse’s tongue would activate the thirst neurons, and the activity would decline when the metal was removed. Even more compelling, they found mice will often lick a piece of cold metal if they are thirsty.
Knight finds this temperature-dependent function a “bizarre phenomenon” that he could see one day being used in creating drinks that are warm but can manipulate your thirst neurons into turning on, so you’d perceive the beverages as tasting cold.
“You could just eliminate refrigerators and ice,” he says.

This Undersea Museum Helps Conserve Coral Life

One of Yucatán’s most fascinating tourist attractions sits 25 feet underwater, on the Caribbean seabed. Situated between Cancun and the nearby Isla Mujeres, the Museo Subacuático de Arte (MUSA) is a living art museum dedicated to environmental preservation and awareness. The dive location contains more than 500 porous cement sculptures, which are designed to promote the growth of seaweed, coral, and algae. As marine life colonizes and feeds off the statues, the cement figures will gradually transform into a giant coral reef.
Take a vicarious swim through the MUSA by watching Great Big Story’s video above.

Penn & Teller’s Bullet Illusion

Penn & Teller have plenty of famous illusions, but one of the scariest is their Magic Bullet. In it, they “catch” bullets in their teeth, apparently by shooting them at each other using .357 Magnums.
Now, we all know that this can’t really be happening. What’s fun about the illusion is trying to sort out what might be happening. There are so many layers to this act, so many moments when misdirection could be happening, that it seems to overwhelm the viewer. How does it work? Only Penn & Teller can say for sure.
Behold:
What really gets me is the rifling on the bullets. It sure does seem like they’ve been fired…but how were they retrieved and put in each others’ mouths?

In Japan, You Can Sip Classy Cocktails in a Ball Pit

Ball pits aren’t just for kids anymore. Kotaku reports that a new bar recently opened in Osaka, Japan that replaces chairs, tables, and boring barstools with a massive wall-to-wall ball pit. The Ball Pool Bar Dive serves up cocktails in airtight mason jars (for maximum hipness and minimum spillage) and charges customers 60 or 90 minute all-you-can-drink rates.
Open to customers 20 years old and over (the legal drinking age in Japan), the Ball Pool Bar Dive is decorated with a handful of art prints, neon light strips, and a few television screens. But the main attraction of the small bar is, appropriately, the ball pit, which is filled with some 20,000 multi-colored plastic balls. Customers can sip drinks and play in the ball pit, toss around balloons, and swim up to the bar to refresh their drinks, making it the perfect place to relive a favorite childhood memory with a classy cocktail in hand.

Meet “The Iron Nun,” an 86-Year-Old Ironman Athlete

Sister Madonna Buder has 45 Ironman Triathlons—which features a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile bike ride, and a full marathon—under her belt. And while that’s an impressive number in and of itself, here’s the real jaw-dropper: She competed in her first Ironman at the age of 65.
Ten years later, Sister Madonna—who is a member of the Sisters for Christian Community order in Spokane, Washington—claimed the record for oldest woman to ever compete in the race. She ran the Boston Marathon in 2008 at the age of 78, clocking a respectable 4:42:41. Eight years after that, she got her own Nike commercial, which she recently admitted she has trouble wrapping her head around. “I’m still mystified by it. Why I could be the pick of the apples, I don’t know.”
She’s also a Senior Olympian, holding records in the 1 mile, 5 km, 5 mile, 800 meters, 1500 meters, 5000 meters, and 10,000 meters. By the way, she has no coach and uses no technology to aid her in her training—not even a watch.
And she’s certainly no stranger to injury. Buder likes to joke that she’s a real Iron Woman, with a steel plate in one hip and pins and screws in both elbows. “My right arm has suffered six incidents. It’s a wonder it’s still hanging on,” she has said.

But how does her triathlon training fit in with her spiritual training? She wasn’t always sure. In fact, when she started competing, she consulted her bishop about her unorthodox hobby. “’I wish more of my priests would do what you’re doing,’” she said his reply was.
Now, Sister Madonna says racing and religion go hand-in-hand. “I would probably be less effective sitting in the convent than I am now, being thrust into the public where I can influence people by example,” she says in her book The Grace to Race.
And, according the Olympian, that’s not the only connection between her training and her spiritual life. “Heading to the finish line of the IRONMAN is like me getting to the pearly gates,” she told Ironman officials. “I think that is why I smile every time at the finish.”

Most Distinctive Last Names by State


According to the most recent publicly available U.S. Census data from the year 2000, the five most common last names in the United States are Smith, Johnson, Williams, Brown, and Jones. But what are the regional variations? While the Census Bureau breaks out each last name by race and ethnicity, it doesn’t provide a count by state. There are other data sources, however. In 2014 Ancestry.com ran the numbers from their own database, and compiled the top three most common last names by state. With the exception of the Southwest states and Hawaii, the top few names nationwide tended to also dominate the state-specific rankings.
However, another way to uncover regional differences at the state level is to calculate the most distinctive last name by state. Using a methodology similar to the “Most Distinctive Obituary Euphemism for ‘Died’ in Each State” map, I calculated the difference between the state and national prevalence of each of the top 250 last names nationwide, based on Social Security Administration data. The highest value gives the last name that is most distinctive to that state.
By and large, the results are reflective of each state’s demographics and immigration history. In New England and Appalachia, Irish and English names dominate (Walsh, Sullivan, Payne). In the Midwest and Mountain States, German and Scandinavian names are common (Jensen, Snyder, Carlson). In California, Florida, and the Southwest, it’s Latino names (Lopez, Hernandez, Gonzalez). New York and New Jersey’s Jewish communities also show up (Cohen, Schwartz, Hoffman).

Today NOAA Adds Solar Storms to the Weather Forecast

Starting today, October 1, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Space Weather Prediction Center will begin forecasting the effects of solar storms on specific regions of the Earth—areas as small as 350 square miles. The Space Weather Modeling Framework, as it is called, gives NOAA a heads-up of about 45 minutes that a solar storm will affect some specific place on Earth. (For comparison, tornado warnings have windows of up to 15 minutes.) NOAA can then issue calls for regions affected to take evasive actions in order to protect the power grid and other infrastructure from lasting damage.
Such forecasts were long impossible to make, and the new capability is the result of decades of research, modeling, and refinement by scientists at the University of Michigan and Rice University.
WHAT ARE SOLAR STORMS?
Solar storms are the result of powerful eruptions of charged particles and magnetic fields from the Sun. When they strike, they can cause serious problems with the power grid. This happened most recently in 1989, when a solar storm tripped circuit breakers at Hydro-Québec, plunging the city into darkness for nine hours. (The storm also disrupted weather and communications satellites, and sensors on the space shuttle Discovery, which was in orbit at the time.) Regional forecasts of areas that might be affected by such storms has been elusive because of the sheer difficulty of constructing a working model.
The Space Weather Modeling Framework, then, is a quantum leap in predicting the effects and targets of geomagnetic storms. It combines three disparate models: one that looks at “ring currents” of hot particles that encircle Earth; one that concerns the ionosphere (a vast region of the upper atmosphere that leads to the magnetosphere); and one concerning “magnetohydrodynamics,” which, according to University of Michigan press statement, “simulates effects on the Earth from electric and magnetic fields.” It took 25 years to develop and marry the three models.
There is a 12 percent chance that the Earth will be hit by a solar storm in the next decade. What might that mean? Look at what happened in Québec, but if you want to experience some real terror, look also at the Carrington Event of 1859.
All things considered, that was a pretty good time to sustain such a catastrophic solar storm. Electric utilities were still decades away. (Paris, the “city of lights,” wouldn’t get its first outdoor electrical light for another 19 years, and Thomas Edison wouldn’t open his first power utility until 1882—to a whopping 85 homes.) So when the solar storm hit, the “grid” consisted entirely of telegraph lines. The impact varied. On the mild end of the spectrum, telegraph operators lost power and their tap-tap-taptaptap-taps transmitted nothing at all. On the scary end, the massive infusion of bad current into the telegraph lines and set paper on fire in telegraph offices.
Imagine, then, the mass destruction that would result from an event today of the same magnitude. Power lines, cable lines, telephone lines—all would risk such surges of solar strength, possibly leaving major metropolitan areas without electricity, water, or any way of communication. The Earth narrowly avoided just such a catastrophic solar superstorm in 2012.
PREVIOUSLY VAGUE WARNINGS GET SPECIFIC—AND ACTIONABLE
Before the creation of the Space Weather Modeling Framework, forecasters might see a solar flare coming and tell utility companies, This looks big and scary, so be prepared. But nobody really knew how big the storm might be or which areas might be affected. Such vagaries gave utilities few options. Daniel Welling, assistant research scientist at the University of Michigan’s Department of Climate and Space Sciences and Engineering, tells mental_floss that Hydro-Québec had no warning that a solar storm would affect the power grid. “It took only 90 seconds from the point that they noticed a problem to the point where eastern Canada was without power. With our tool,” Welling says, “utility companies can see the magnitude of the event before it hits and what regions are likely to be most affected. They can prepare and take action to prevent another Hydro-Québec incident—or worse.”
Welling is one of the new model’s developers. “I’ve talked to representatives from the power industry,” he says, “and they repeatedly tell us that this information will be both useful and actionable.” For very extreme space weather storms, representatives from the power industry must make a decision to either disable components of the power grid or keep the system up and risk serious damage.
HOW UTILITIES WILL RESPOND TO SCARY FORECASTS
“We’re thrilled” about the new forecasting feature, Howard Singer, chief scientist of the Space Weather Prediction Center, tells mental_floss. “In the past we’ve been able to provide a global index of activity: How likely the geomagnetic field is to be disturbed over the next day or so—hours to days. This [new modeling framework] introduces the beginnings of being able to say it might be more disturbed, say, in Europe or the United States, or reaching down from Canada into the northern U.S. region. It’s beginning to give us some regional capability where these disturbances might be most important in affecting technologies.”
It works like this. The Space Weather Prediction Center uses the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC), a nonprofit international regulatory authority, to disseminate information to grid operators in the United States and Canada. NOAA will call them if something is imminent, and they will get the word out. In addition, the Space Weather Prediction Center has a number of ways of conveying information to the public, government, and industry, including a website, a subscription service, and phone calls to important customers. “One organization we are involved with is the Department of Homeland Security, and in particular, the Federal Emergency Management Agency,” says Singer.
Words and warnings, of course, must be followed by actions. NERC has an operating procedure that they use for the information they receive. They take actions on long-term things—if an event is likely in couple of days, grid operators might put off maintenance on something that they’re doing somewhere. There are actions they take even one hour or so in advance. They monitor transformer temperatures, and they closely monitor devices more susceptible to solar events. They can shed loads so that the grid in question is not running near capacity. They can remove lines from services that interconnect between various grid operators.
“On one hand,” says Welling, “you are guaranteeing a short-term power outage to a region. On the other hand, you are preventing massive losses and long-term power outages. Making these types of decisions requires accurate and regional knowledge of space weather hazards. Our model results are a big first step toward this.”
