care kit specifically designed
for college students is now
available online. The Col
lege Student First Aid Kit
includes over 30 different,
leading brand medications,
ointments, creams, drops,

needs it, it’s in there.
Founder and mom-
preneur, Beth Stewart, de
veloped this one-of-a-kind
product every parent with
college-bound kids should
get their hands on. A certi

over 25 years of healthcare
experience (and mother of
three), Stewart discovered a
huge void in the market for a
well-organized, donn room
first aid kit and decided to
create her own.

Painful Cavity
Treatments May
Soon Be a Thing
of the Past
Going to the den
tist to repair a cavity can be
daunting. But, fear not, says
the Association of Mature
American Citizens. AMAC
reports that researchers at
King’s College London may
have discovered a way to re
grow that aching tooth.
The procedure,
which would not be avail
able until approved by the
FDA, uses a drug already
available on the market
to treat symptoms of Alz
heimer’s disease. It helps
damaged teeth produce ex
tra dentin, a naturally occur
ring substance. The dentin
fills the cavity without need
to drill. The process has
worked on experiments with
mice and human trials may
begin in the not too distant
future.
Fantastic Voyage
There’s an asteroid out there
in space with the moniker,
16 Psyche, that is made en
tirely of a combination of a
metal that would reported
ly be worth an astounding
10,000 quadrillion dollars,
according to the Association
of Mature American Citi
zens. That’s $10,000 with
an extra fifteen zeros and
NASA plans on visiting the
planetoid.
But, there are no plans “cash
in” on the mission. The sci
entists at the space agency
believe tliis extra-terrestrial
treasure hunt will provide a
trove of knowledge. They
say it can help tell us how
the solar system was formed.
Besides, NASA says, it does
not have the technology to
mine the asteroid.
“Cat Cuddler
Needed”
If you are a cat lover, you are
going to love this job oppor
tunity, says the Association
of Mature American Citi
zens: a Dublin clinic calling
itself Just Cats has posted an
opening for a resident “cat
cuddler” on its Web site.
“The ideal candidate must
have gentle hands capable of
petting and stroking cats for
long periods of time,” ac
cording to the ad. He or she
must also have “cattitude,”
the posting notes.
