STRESS, BRAINS CHANGES

Researches scanned the brains of children (from 9 to 17 years old) and found out that the children who has suffered stress or trauma had changed in size and volume a part of the brain, called insula. 
The insula, the part of the brain linked to the emotions is smaller in girls who had suffered trauma and larger than the usual for boys who had suffered the same.
This could explain why girls are more likely than boys to develop post traumatic stress disorder. 
So, very stressful events affect the brains of girls and boys in different ways.

HOW TO SEE THE BIGGEST MOON IN 68 YEARS

Look up on the night November 14 and you may be able to see the biggest supermoon in 68 years. 
There are times when moon cycle is closer or further from us and it means we can see the moon bigger than other times. The term "supermoon" is defined as the time the moon is most approach to the Earth. 
On 14 November the moon reaches perigee at 6:21 a.m. but at 8:52 it reaches its full phase, 221.524 miles from the Earth.
We must enjoy the sky show because the full moon won't get this close to us until November 2034.

Best time to catch this sky event is just after local sunset. It will be 7 percent lager and 15 percent brighter it means you should be able to notice the change if you have been watching the moon for months, if not, it will be tricky to appreciate.

As we should know moon cycle affects on tides and it means coastal regions can be affected.
