Here are a few tips:

• To help prevent spyware, phishing, or viruses, use apps from

trusted sites, like Google Play.

• In Google Play, check the app’s ratings and comments

• Monitor children’s access to apps to help prevent exposure

to inappropriate content.

• Certain apps may not provide completely accurate

We yawn when we’re sleepy or bored or if we see someone else yawn. Some people also yawn when they’re anticipating something important and when they’re stressed. Many think it’s because the brain lacks oxygen, but according to a new study, the thing most of these instances have in common is thermoregulation.
