SURVEYS, STUDIES & SUCH: Brought to you by JaseCaseMedical.com
Winter can be tough – especially when it feels as though as soon as you shake a case of the sniffles – you seem to get sick again. A new survey has found that the average adult believes they are healthy just 16 days per month during winter. That’s right: They spend almost half their winter…ummm…’under the weather’. The Talker Research poll of 2,000 adults in the US, almost half of them co-habitating partners, also offered a peak into how illness affects relationships and daily life during the cold season. And I hope this doesn’t ring true in your household, but one-third of those living with partners described their significant other as “a baby” when sick. Partners were also characterized as stubborn (25%) and dramatic (23%). And 22% said their partner refuses to acknowledge being ill at all.

There
is a hybrid sport birthed from the comic book of a French artist and
filmmaker called Chess Boxing. This consists of six four-minute chess
rounds interposed with five three-minute boxing rounds. A contestant
wins when they get a knock-out or technical stoppage within the
boxing round or through a check-mate or forfeit within the chess
rounds.

Conan O’Brien has been announced as the latest comedian to be awarded the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor. The former host of “Late Night With Conan O’Brien” and “The Tonight Show” will receive the award on March 23 at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. The ceremony will air on Netflix. In typical Conan style, he offered this reaction to the news: “I am honored to be the first winner of the Mark Twain Prize recognized not for humor, but for my work as a riverboat pilot.” Kevin Hart was last year’s recipient, and previous honorees include Dave Chappelle, Adam Sandler, Jon Stewart, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus.
Renée Zellweger said in an interview with her longtime “Bridget Jones” co-star Hugh Grant for British Vogue that it was the sound of her voice that led her to stop acting for more than half a decade in the 2010s. At that point in her career, Zellweger was already a 3-time Oscar nominee and one-time winner. She was one of the highest-paid female actors in Hollywood, but when asked by Grant why she took a 6-year acting break, Zellweger answered: “I was sick of the sound of my own voice. When I was working, I was like, ‘Oh, my gosh, listen to you. Are you sad again, Renée? Oh, is this your mad voice?’ It was a regurgitation of the same emotional experiences.” At that time, she stayed busy by writing music and “studied international law.”

A fitness club is selling a line of “waterproof suits” with the idea that wearers can transition from their job to the swimming pool and back again – without a wrinkle. David Lloyd Clubs, which is “Europe’s leading health and wellness group”, according to its website, produced the garments after hearing from members who said they struggle to fit exercise into their busy workdays. The waterproof “Swim Suit” collection, with items for both men and women, is made from special water-resistant, hydrophobic fabric. Each garment takes more than 3 weeks to create. A company spokesperson said: “The 20 minutes or so to get ready and showered after exercising can eat into your day. Now, you don’t even need to think about it – you can be straight out of the pool and back at your desk in a matter of seconds.” The collection is expected to be available soon.
A doctor is warning that coffee drinkers may be unknowingly sipping on microscopic traces of cockroaches. Dr Sermed Mezher of London explained to his 290,000 Instagram followers that that during the harvesting, processing, and grinding of coffee beans, it’s nearly impossible to entirely eliminate contaminants such as insects, which can come into contact with the beans in fields, storage facilities, or production plants. And while the good doctor notes that “the idea of insect parts in coffee may be off-putting…these levels are low and pose no risk to health.” However, he warns those with a shellfish allergy to steer clear of ground beans — as these individuals tend to react to a protein called tropomyosin, which is also found in cockroaches.

A first-of-its-kind, all-in-one canine club opens in New York this week, that promises swanky daytime digs to the pups of the affluent. For $1,350 a month, Happy Tails members (‘rich bitches’?) will have access to posh puppy playgrounds and obstacle courses, grooming, pet-friendly wine, a dog therapist and psychic, and more. The 10,000-square-foot clubhouse features a jungle-themed area where members can jump through hoops dangling from the ceiling; a “tea room,” where calm canines can chill on fake grass and couches; a play area for puppies, and another room full of balls and other toys. Prospective pups undergo a multi-step application and assessment process, and are only given the green light when the doggie behavioral therapist gives the official “paws up”.
