Men, if you value your fertility – be wary of your laptop computer. According to a new study, laptop computers may contribute to infertility and sterility in men.
Laptop Risks: Sterility in Men?
In a study presented at the American Society for Reproductive Medicine meeting, researchers took sperm samples from fifteen men. Some of the samples were exposed to radio frequency electromagnetic waves from WiFi for four hours, while the remainder were not. At the end of the four hours, the sperm exposed to the WiFi signal from a laptop were not only less mobile, but they had more DNA fragmentation and damage. DNA houses the all-important genetic material that codes for proteins that control the cell. Decreased sperm motility is a common cause of male infertility problems since sperm have to be mobile enough to reach and fertilize the egg.
Can Laptops Cause Sterility in Men?
This isn’t the first time there have been concerns about laptop risks and male infertility. In a previous study, researchers found that laptops heat up the scrotum and testicles when men place them in their lap. This can contribute to sterility in men since the testicles need to be several degrees cooler than the rest of the body to produce healthy sperm. This study shows that there may also be a non-thermal effect of laptops on sperm counts and that the stimulus may be the electromagnetic waves that come from WiFi. These waves seem to damage DNA and decrease sperm motility.
Male Sterility: Laptop Risks Times Two
It seems that laptops contribute to male infertility in two ways – by overheating the testicles and by the effects of WiFi on sperm DNA. Either way, using a laptop could make it more difficult to conceive.
Laptop Risks and Male Sterility: The Bottom Line?
If you use a laptop computer, put it on a table – not in your lap. No one knows for sure whether the damage laptop computers do to sperm are temporary or permanent. But why take the chance? Laptops are portable and convenient, but, if you’re a male, don’t let them damage your sperm and keep you from conceiving.

5 Simple Rules To Being A Polite Rioter
In case you haven’t been paying attention to the news lately, people are really getting into rioting.
It’s all the rage, and everybody loves it.
Some of you reading this might be thinking, “Boy-gee-whiz, I want to start a riot!” And you absolutely should, but not before learning the basic guidelines of rioting.
It’s called “Riotiquette.” Here are the rules…
1. Bricks Before Bros
Bricks and bros: Two necessary components of a riot. You throw bricks through the windows of innocent local shop owners, and you high five your bros for successfully ruining said shop-owners’ lives. But guess what? Riots are a fickle phenomenon, and at any moment your “bro” might decide he no longer likes rioting and wants to stop the madness. Your bro is now a traitor, and you should throw a brick at him.
2. Don’t Throw The First Brick
Once riots get going, you can literally do whatever you want. The city becomes a lawless field of anarchy where all of a sudden stabbing the police with a broken bottle is a hip thing to do. But NEVER throw the first brick, and here’s why: Maybe nobody else is in the mood for needless chaos that day. If you throw the first brick and nobody else joins in, you’re going to look like a total asshole. So let some other sap do the honors.
3. Lend A Helping Hand
Sure, rioting is a blast, but after you’ve caused mass panic and destruction comes the real fun: Looting. And while looting may appear incredibly selfish, let’s not make it TOO selfish by letting women and children fend for themselves. Offer a helping hand and carry one side of that 72” LCD TV for a mom. Or put your jacket over the jagged shards of a broken window so a grandma can safely steal her meds from the pharmacy.
4. Play It Cool
Listen, things are going to get crazy out there, and that’s all part of the fun. But when all hell is breaking loose, make sure you keep a level head… and play it cool. Trying to set a car on fire but the owner comes back and he’s a huge tattooed man with a crowbar? Back away. There are plenty of other cars to blow up. SWAT shows up? Grab a broom and pretend to be an innocent bystander just trying to clean up the mess.
5. Have Fun
Most importantly, have fun. It’s a riot, and riots are supposed to be fun! Now is not the time to be a wallflower – so grab a baseball bat, wrap a bandanna around your face, punch a stranger in the mouth, and have the best time of your life!

Breaking up is like being buried but not dying.
Two things in life hurts very much
1 . When someone loves you but do not tells you.
2 . When someone do not love you but tells you.
We enter relationships as a somebody and leave them as a nobody.
The pain of having a broken heart is not so much as to kill you, yet not so little as to let you live.
The worst thing about loving you was watching you love someone else.
No matter who broke your heart, or how long it takes to heal, you’ll never get through it without your friends.
The heart are made to be broken.
- Oscar Wilde
Breaking up is just like having the worst nightmare after having the best dream.
If there is a reason why you met that person, then there is a reason why you guys broke up too.
Ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.
- Kahlil Gibran
Sometimes the person you really need is the one you didn’t think you wanted.
I never realized how much our relationship was like glass, until it broke.
No matter who broke your heart, or how long it takes to heal, you’ll never get through it without your friends.
Breaking up is not a stupid thing; instead it makes you a better person and realize your mistakes.
A break up is like a broken mirror.It is better to leave it broken than hurt yourself trying to fix it.
The pain of having a broken heart is not so much as to kill you, yet not so little as to let you live.
Love is not something that u can find, love is something that finds you.
The hottest love has the coldest end.
- Socrates
It takes a couple seconds to say Hello, but forever to say Goodbye.
Breaking up is like being buried but not dying.
Relationships are like glass. Sometimes it’s better to leave them broken then get hurt trying to put it pack together.
Never make a man a priority when he only makes you and option.
You don’t die from a broken heart . You only wish you did.
Boys always replace with one worry with another, but girls replace one happiness with another during break up .
Life is not a game so don’t play it, if you don’t know how to win it.
Don’t kill the dream - execute it!
Sometimes, a cute friend makes an acutely painful enemy.
No guy is worth your tears & the ones who are won’t make you cry.
Always laugh when you can. It is cheaper than medicine…
To the world you may just be one person, but to one person you may be the world”
The two most common elements in the world are hydrogen and stupidity.
You laugh because I’m different, I laugh because you’re all the same.
I’m cute in gym shorts! I’m slim and trim, and you’d be impressed - I’ve good calves.
Never live life unnoticed .
You’ve got you’re perfect hands on my nervous heart.
In order to be irreplaceable, you must always be different.
You laugh at me because I’m different, I laugh at you because you’re all the same.
A friend is one who knows us, but loves us anyway.
Cute is when a person’s personality shines through their looks. Like in the way they walk, every time you see them you just want to run up and hug them.
Have the courage to live. Anyone can die.
Having nothing, nothing can you lose.
Don’t drown the man who taught you to swim.
Love is a fire. But whether it is going to warm your heart or burn down your house, you can never tell.
You are well-educated and you look cute, but that’s not going to cut it.
Nothing improves the memory more than trying to forget.
Insanity is hereditary you get it from your kids.
Cats are magical - the more you pet them the longer you both live.
It’s funny that those things your kids did that got on your nerves seem so cute when your grandchildren do them.
Never look back unless youre planning to go that way.
What lies before us and what lies behind us are tiny matters to what lies within us.
Life is not the amount of breaths you take, it’s the moments that take your breath away…
Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.
Half of the people in the world are below average.
If all my friends were to jump off a bridge, I wouldn’t jump with them, I’d be at the bottom to catch them.
Love is just something you can’t explain, like the look of a rose, the smell of rain, or the feeling of forever .
Life is not a game so don’t play it, if you don’t know how to win it.
