THE BRIDGE THAT CHANGES EVERYTHING | CONNECTING CHILDREN TO OPPORTUNITIES

The journey to a brighter future should not be a daily struggle.

Every child deserves safer and more accessible roads to school.

The Kaa-Ataba Bridge will ease movement for students and teachers, improving connections between communities and educational opportunities.

NDDC… Making a Difference.

Creatine and… Depression?

Actually, yeah

Over the past decade research on creatine’s effect on the brain has exploded

Starting with impressive improvements in several measures of cognition like working memory, attention, and boosting energy after sleep deprivation

But more recently there have been several cool studies looking at how creatine taken in conjunction with standard treatments for depression (SSRI’s, therapy, etc.) could lead to faster and better results in treating depressive symptoms

From the study in the video where creatine’s paired with an SSRI prescription medication, to a more recent study done last year where creatine showed significantly better results when paired with cognitive behavioral therapy (both studies linked below)

Now, this isn’t just saying that taking creatine will make you happy…

It’s still only just several studies, and mental health is an insanely complex and dynamic issue, but it is cool to see this branch of research getting more attention for more funding in the future

Research from video:

Class is in session for A History of Design. Lesson two: the Georgians 🏛️

Strap yourselves into your corsets, because we’re heading back to 1714–1830 to explore the era of symmetry, proportion, sash windows and fireplaces that refuse to be overlooked.
From grand Georgian architecture and floor-to-ceiling panelling to the early influence of Thomas Chippendale, dado rails (which, FYI, had rather practical origins) and those deliciously moody historic paint colours. All of which goes some way to explaining why Georgian interiors feel so effortlessly right.

And yes, this is a LONG one. We’re going long-form, baby. Ever heard of it?! 😜 I jest, but I do worry about what all these short and snappy reels are doing to our attention spans, so here’s a healthy 2 minutes and 30 seconds of interior design nerdiness. You’re welcome.

Give me a 🏛️ in the comments if you made it to the end, and thank you again, for indulging me in a little history lesson.

Next lesson: arches. Class dismissed.
