And Ukraine, which export potential of the oilseed is announced at the level of 1.38 mln tonnes (up 4% compared with last year), has the sufficient volumes of soybean supply.
Suphan Akanil, Partner of Promar Agricultural Commodity Trading, will make the report on the soybean market in Turkey and prospects of the exports of the Ukrainian oilseed to the country.
Note. Promar Group was founded in 2003, and during 11 years it is one of the leading suppliers of agricultural products, including soybeans, soybean and sunflower meals, sunflower cake, vegetable oils, etc. on the animal feed market of Turkey. The company offices are located in Istanbul and Izmir.

As usual, this year's Final Four is comprised of talented college basketball teams and those four teams—Kentucky, Louisville, Kansas and Ohio State—are all loaded with potential future NBA players.
How good will the NBA players from these teams be? Starters? Stars? Superstars? Icons? Are there any future NBA icons playing in New Orleans this weekend?
The odds are that there aren't. The reason guys like Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Michael Jordan and Tim Duncan are such iconic players is because there aren't players like that on display at every Final Four or even every other Final Four.
Guys like Kobe are rare. However, there are three players who will be on display this weekend who can become true NBA superstars. Will they be as talented as Bryant? Probably not, but if you had to pick some guys with a slight chance to enter that unique level of play then these three guys would be the ones you would pick.

PurpleWildcats.com will be in attendance for the Northwestern basketball team camp this weekend. The event hosts several key targets, youngsters and players from across the Midwest.
It's a novel concept. Chris Collins and his staff have the opportunity to watch players early in the 2015 recruiting cycle. Some may be nearing offers, some are star players and others are looking to make their names.
Regardless, it's a major event for the program—which wants even more validation. This could be smart, and not just for the opportunity to once again host 5-star power forward Henry Ellenson. Team camp is part of creating a better basketball culture for NU. We'll track it as best we can.
Here are some potential storylines:
Henry Ellenson— The 5-star power forward from Rice Lake (Wis.) visits Northwestern again this weekend. An ambitious target, he holds offers from schools including Wisconsin, Duke, UCLA and Michigan State. Regardless, Collins hopes to pull off a major recruiting upset. He'll be playing too, of course, so we'll get a chance to further evaluate his terrific skillset.
The Kenwood duo— NU has two remaining scholarships for the class of 2015. We like Aaron Falzon to take one spot, with a handful of favorites for the second spot. Then, they'll need to move to 2016, with another crucial class upcoming. Two major figures will be Kenwood (Ill.) standouts Nick Robinson and Zion Morgan. Robinson impresses with his versatile game. "Versatile" is the most overused word in basketball, but he's a long 6-foot-6 athlete with good court vision and an improving midrange shot. Morgan is an impressive creator who can post up smaller guards and score from all over the floor.
Mike Smith— NU can start pursuing its long-term goals. Last season, Collins needed to rush to recruit 2014 prospects and start looking at 2015 players. When they move on to the class of 2016, one of these guys could be Fenwick's Mike Smith. A potential high-upside local point guard, he played with Scott Lindsey. He's a 5-foot-10 scorer who's still developing, and a potential compelling look for the NU staff.
Matt Heldt— Heldt's another mystery project. The Neenah (Wis.) prospect holds one major offer from Marquette, and the rest are from mid-major schools. He'll play in front of NU coaches this weekend. We could discount Heldt, and an offer seems unlikely, but crazier things have happened. For example, Lindsey and Gavin Skelly were further down the NU recruiting board last year before their July performance. Heldt, a center, might be worth watching, and we'll see how well he plays.
Jalen Brunson— He's not considering NU, but hey, he's on campus.
Others to watch: Connor Cashaw, Roosevelt Smart, Manny Patterson, Nate Navigato, Nojel Eastern.
Overall, though, this event could be important for the future of Northwestern basketball. Stay tuned to PurpleWildcats.com for live updates throughout the weekend.

Rocco DiSpirito Out of 'Dancing with the Stars'
Another pair was being eliminated this week on the Tuesday, October 14 episode of "Dancing with the Stars". The couple of professional dancer, Karina Smirnoff, and celebrity chef, Rocco DiSpirito, got the lowest total score from both the judges and audience voters, which is 18 out of 30. They both were practicing Samba dance during their competition in the show.
After the score announcement, DiSpirito asked one of the jugdes, Bruno Tonioli, to show a better Samba dance to him. He said, "For my final request, I would love it if Bruno could show me how to make my hips move properly." They finally had a duel Samba together.
The chef also thanked his partner, Smirnoff, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I know that teaching me to dance must be like pushing a stone uphill sometimes." He added, "I have nothing but grateful feelings to the entire cast and crew."
The score also ranked actress Cloris Leachman before DiSpirito, while Brooke Burke was still on her top spot with her samba.
Eight celebrities are left and will continue the competition on next Monday. They are Leachman and Corky Ballas, Lance Bass and Lacey Schwimmer, Susan Lucci and Tony Dovolani, Brooke Burke and Derek Hough, Cody Lindley and Julianne Hough, Toni Braxton and Alec Mazo, Warren Sapp and Kym Johnson, as well as Maurice Greene and Cheryl Burke.
In addition, 20 years old singer-actress, Vanessa Hudgens, declared her willingness to be a part of the dance show. The star believed that making an appearance on the competition will be easy because she was already practicing waltzing in a scene of "High School Musical 3: Senior Year".
"I have no plans to take part at the moment. But I might be able to if I really wanted to. I mean, we worked so hard and learning the waltz was so tough," Vanessa said. "We finally got it in the end. I was so crap. I kept forgetting what the dance was. But it is going to look really great on a big screen and the plot is a lot more sophisticated. It is really neat. I loved it. So who knows?" she added.

Kelly Osbourne Quits Fashion Police
It's official - Kelly Osbourne is no longer one of the co-hosts of the long-running E! series Fashion Police.
TMZ is reporting that Kelly quit the show today amidst escalating tensions with producers.
It's official - Kelly Osbourne is no longer one of the co-hosts of the long-running E! series Fashion Police.
TMZ is reporting that Kelly quit the show today amidst escalating tensions with producers.
In the wake of the Giuliana Rancic-Zendaya scandal, there might be an opening at Fashion Police, and it seems that the E! network didn't have to look very far to find a new co-host.
"Khloe Kardashian is now in talks to join Fashion Police as a cast member," a source tells Radar Online. "Having done several gigs as a special correspondent, Khloe absolutely loves being part of the show.
Ozzy Osbourne wants Access Hollywood's Billy Bush to "lay off" his daughter Kelly Osbourne in the wake of the Giuliana Rancic-Zendaya controversy.
Either that or get ready for a boot in your behind. Bitch.
Is the embattled Giuliana Rancic changing her story and throwing her own E! show's writers under the bus for her controversial joke about Zendaya?
By now, you've likely heard about the controversy surrounding Giuliana Rancic's remarks on Zendaya's hair at the Academy Awards.
The comment nearly got Rancic fired from E! and resulted in a public relations nightmare for the revamped Fashion Police.
Kelly Osbourne has three words for Zendaya and Giuliana Rancic:
Job. Well. Done.
Zendaya Coleman has chosen to take the high road when it comes to her feud with Giuliana Rancic.
As previously detailed, Rancic first apologized to Zendaya after the actress posted a lengthy, well-reasoned message on Instagram that called the E! Fashion Police host out for an inappropriate comment she made regarding Zendaya's dreadlocks.
Earlier this week, a controversy erupted surrounding Giuliana Rancic's comments about Zendaya's hair.
In case you somehow missed it, here's the offending clip:
During a recent episode of E!'s Fashion Police, Giuliana Rancic remarked on Zendaya's hair with a joke that's been criticized as disrespectful, offensive, and even racist.
Sometimes, a Twitter apology simply isn't enough.
Like when you make a racist remark while critiquing someone's look on the red carpet of the 2015 Academy Awards.
Giuliana Rancic has issued an apology to Zendaya Coleman.
On an episode of E!'s Fashion Police dedicated to the 2015 Oscars fashion, Rancic criticized the young star's look by saying it appeared as if the 18-year old "smells like patchouli oil… or maybe weed."
Red carpet reporter Giuliana Rancic wants newly-hired colleague Maria Menounos out of the picture over on E! News, according to new reports.
Why does she allegedly care? And will she be successful?

Raising the minimum wage would reduce government expenditures on current income-support programs by $7.6 billion per year--and possibly more. In Alabama, 45% of single parent families are living in poverty, there are 392,000 children receiving food stamps and 95,636 Alabama households are receiving federal rental assistance. Alabama is well above the national average in every one of these categories. Therefore, we would be among those who benefit the most, yet it is our current leaders who are the largest critics of this necessary reform. I would sponsor legislation to raise the minimum wage to $15 per hour.
From the state's largest cities to the smallest towns, nothing is more important to me than putting people back to work. Because of my steadfast commitment to recruiting jobs for the people of this state, Whether it is 50 jobs in a small town or 1000 jobs in a large city, every job matters to me and especially to that person who will go back to work.
They are the men and women who make up Alabama's greatest economic asset--and that's our workers. I'm proud of our workers, and we should all take pride that the products rolling off the assembly line are stamped "Made In Alabama."
I am creating an Office of Small Business Development. We will continue to aggressively pursue businesses that bring new jobs to our state. That means providing work force training and resources to support companies. Under the Full-Employment Act business will be given a one-time tax credit for each new job they create.
They still have mortgages to pay. If it's not a mortgage, it's rent. They have to live somewhere! We can't just throw them out in the cold. And it's their families too.
Their children shouldn't be hurt. They're innocent! They had nothing to do with that. Why should they be hurt

Chapter 14. Attention and Consciousness
Follow us on Facebook and Twitter, or subscribe to our mailing list, to receive news updates. Learn more.
By Virginia Morell Like fearful humans, horses raise the inner brow of their eyes when threatened or surprised. Altogether their faces can convey 17 emotions (ours express 27), and they readily recognize the expressions on their fellow equines. But can they read our facial cues? To find out, researchers tested 28 horses, including 21 geldings and seven mares, from stables in the United Kingdom. Each horse was led by his/her halter rope to a position in the stable, and then presented with a life-size color photograph of the face of a man. The man was either smiling or frowning angrily. The scientists recorded the animals' reactions, and measured their heart rates. Other studies have shown that stressed horses' heart rates fluctuate, and when the horses looked at the angry man, their hearts reached a maximum heart rate more quickly than when they viewed the smiling image. When shown the angry face, 20 of the horses also turned their heads so that they could look at it with their left eye—a response that suggests they understood the expression, the scientists report online today in Biology Letters, because the right hemisphere of the brain is specialized for processing negative emotions. Dogs, too, have this "left-gaze bias" when confronting angry faces. Also, like dogs, the horses showed no such bias, such as moving their heads to look with the right eye, when viewing the happy faces—perhaps because the animals don't need to respond to nonthreatening cues. But an angry expression carries a warning—the person may be about to strike. The discovery that horses as well as dogs—the only two animals this has been tested in—can read our facial expressions spontaneously and without training suggests one of two things: Either these domesticated species devote a lot of time to learning our facial cues, or the ability is innate and more widespread in the animal kingdom than previously thought. © 2016 American Association for the Advancement of Scienc

By John Bohannon Didn't get your 40 winks last night? Better not get yourself arrested, or you may admit to a crime you didn't commit. False confessions are surprisingly easy to extract from people simply by keeping them awake, according to a new study of sleep deprivation. It puts hard numbers to a problem that criminal law reformers have worried about for decades. The "crime" in question took place in a sleep lab run by Kimberly Fenn at Michigan State University in East Lansing. Together, she and Elizabeth Loftus, a psychologist at the University of California (UC), Irvine, and two of their former Ph.D. students recruited 88 Michigan State students to take part in an experiment. During two separate visits, the students worked at computers solving problems and filling out questionnaires. They were all given a stern warning: Do not press the escape key, because it will erase important study data. After their second session, the subjects were split into two groups. Half of them were forced to stay awake all night under the watch of the researchers. Scrabble, TV shows, and a card game called euchre seemed to do the trick. The rest were allowed to get a full night's sleep. But that also required policing. "We actually had a student leave the study because he wanted to stay awake all night to study for an exam the next day," Fenn says, adding that "I certainly do not advocate this!" The next morning, everyone received a typed statement describing their performance. The statement accused them of hitting the escape key on the first day, even though none of them actually did so—the computers recorded all keystrokes. © 2016 American Association for the Advancement of Science

By Christian Jarrett Back in the 1980s, the American scientist Benjamin Libet made a surprising discovery that appeared to rock the foundations of what it means to be human. He recorded people's brain waves as they made spontaneous finger movements while looking at a clock, with the participants telling researchers the time at which they decided to waggle their fingers. Libet's revolutionary finding was that the timing of these conscious decisions was consistently preceded by several hundred milliseconds of background preparatory brain activity (known technically as "the readiness potential"). The implication was that the decision to move was made nonconsciously, and that the subjective feeling of having made this decision is tagged on afterward. In other words, the results implied that free will as we know it is an illusion — after all, how can our conscious decisions be truly free if they come after the brain has already started preparing for them? For years, various research teams have tried to pick holes in Libet's original research. It's been pointed out, for example, that it's pretty tricky for people to accurately report the time that they made their conscious decision. But, until recently, the broad implications of the finding have weathered these criticisms, at least in the eyes of many hard-nosed neuroscientists, and over the last decade or so his basic result has been replicated and built upon with ever more advanced methods such as fMRI and the direct recording of neuronal activity using implanted electrodes. © 2016, New York Media LLC

By Anna K. Bobak, Sarah Bate For years scientists have studied the biological basis of human speed, and reported that the fastest athletes are short and muscular in build. However, these conclusions were challenged in 2008 when a new athlete, substantially taller than previous world-record holders, was identified as the fastest man in history. Usain Bolt presented the purest expression of human speed on the planet – and raised the possibility that scientists may need to entirely change the way they think about human biometrics. In the same vein, one might ask whether examinations of the brain at its height of efficiency will present new insights into its workings. Although researchers have historically examined people with a very high IQ (i.e. those with more generalised skills), it has become more and more clear that some individuals only perform extraordinarily well on specific cognitive tasks. Among the most interesting of these is facial identity recognition. In fact, the extraordinary skills of these so-called "super-recognisers" do not seem to correlate with IQ or memory for objects, yet they claim to recognise faces which they have only briefly been seen before, or have undergone substantial changes in appearance. For instance, in a recent scientific report from our laboratory (unpublished), one super-recogniser described bumping into a girl from a children's' swimming class he coached as a teenager. He recognised her immediately, despite the fact that he'd not seen her for over ten years and she was now an adult. So how can these people change the way that scientists think about the human brain? For many years researchers have generally agreed that faces are "special." © 2016 Scientific American

By David Shultz Is my yellow the same as your yellow? Does your pain feel like my pain? The question of whether the human consciousness is subjective or objective is largely philosophical. But the line between consciousness and unconsciousness is a bit easier to measure. In a new study of how anesthetic drugs affect the brain, researchers suggest that our experience of reality is the product of a delicate balance of connectivity between neurons—too much or too little and consciousness slips away. "It's a very nice study," says neuroscientist Melanie Boly at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, who was not involved in the work. "The conclusions that they draw are justified." Previous studies of the brain have revealed the importance of "cortical integration" in maintaining consciousness, meaning that the brain must process and combine multiple inputs from different senses at once. Our experience of an orange, for example, is made up of sight, smell, taste, touch, and the recollection of our previous experiences with the fruit. The brain merges all of these inputs—photons, aromatic molecules, etc.—into our subjective experience of the object in that moment. "There is new meaning created by the interaction of things," says Enzo Tagliazucchi, a physicist at the Institute for Medical Psychology in Kiel, Germany. Consciousness ascribes meaning to the pattern of photons hitting your retina, thus differentiating you from a digital camera. Although the brain still receives these data when we lose consciousness, no coherent sense of reality can be assembled. © 2016 American Association for the Advancement of Science.

Timothy Egan This weekend, I'm going to the Mojave Desert, deep into an arid wilderness of a half-million acres, for some stargazing, bouldering and January sunshine on my public lands. I won't be out of contact. I checked. If Sarah Palin says something stupid on Donald Trump's behalf — scratch that. When Sarah Palin says something stupid on Donald Trump's behalf, I'll get her speaking-in-tongues buffoonery in real time, along with the rest of the nation. The old me would have despised the new me for admitting such a thing. I've tried to go on digital diets, fasting from my screens. I was a friend's guest at a spa in Arizona once and had so much trouble being "mindful" that they nearly kicked me out. Actually, I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss the Seahawks game, mindful of Seattle's woeful offensive line. In the information blur of last year, you may have overlooked news of our incredibly shrinking attention span. A survey of Canadian media consumption by Microsoft concluded that the average attention span had fallen to eight seconds, down from 12 in the year 2000. We now have a shorter attention span than goldfish, the study found. Attention span was defined as "the amount of concentrated time on a task without becoming distracted." I tried to read the entire 54-page report, but well, you know. Still, a quote from Satya Nadella, the chief executive officer of Microsoft, jumped out at me. "The true scarce commodity" of the near future, he said, will be "human attention." Putting aside Microsoft's self-interest in promoting quick-flash digital ads with what may be junk science, there seems little doubt that our devices have rewired our brains. We think in McNugget time. The trash flows, unfiltered, along with the relevant stuff, in an eternal stream.

By Melissa Dahl It's the fifth inning and the Tampa Bay Rays are beating the Cleveland Indians 6–2 when Cleveland's relief pitcher Nick Hagadone steps in. Alas, Hagadone does little to turn around the Indians' luck that day, closing out the long inning with a score of 10–2. Hagadone, apparently frustrated by his own lackluster performance, heads to the clubhouse and, on the way there, punches a door with his left fist — the fist that is, unfortunately, connected to his pitching arm. That momentary impulse would cost him dearly. Hagadone required surgery and eight months' recovery time — and, to add insult to a literal injury, his team also relegated him to the minor leagues, a move that shrank his annual salary by more than 80 percent. When asked about what could possibly explain an action like this in a usually easy-going guy, the Indians' team psychologist, Charlie Maher, could only offer variations on this: "He just snapped." Unless you are also a relief pitcher in the major leagues, you will likely never be in exactly this situation. But how many times have you reacted aggressively, even violently, in a way that felt almost out of your control? You hurl your smartphone across the room, or you unleash a stream of expletives in a manner that would seem to a calmer, rational mind to be disproportionate to the situation at hand. "I just snapped" is how we explain it to ourselves and others, and then we move on. The phrase has become such a cliché that it's easy to forget that it doesn't really explain much of anything. What's behind this impulsive, immediately regrettable behavior? R. Douglas Fields, a senior investigator at the National Institutes of Health, sought out an explanation in his new book, Why We Snap: Understanding the Rage Circuit in Your Brain, which includes the Hagadone story recounted above. © 2016, New York Media LLC

by Emily Reynolds We know more about what the brain does when it's active than we do when it's at rest. It makes sense -- much neuroscientific research has looked to understand particular (and active) processes. James Kozloski, a researcher at IBM, has investigated what the brain does when it's resting -- what he calls 'the Grand Loop'. "The brain consumes a great amount of energy doing nothing. It's a great mystery of neuroscience," Kozloski told PopSci. He argued that around 90 percent of the energy used by the brain remained "unaccounted for". He believes that the brain is constantly 'looping signals', retracing neural pathways over and over again. It's a "closed loop", according to Kozloski, meaning it isn't reliant on external inputs as much of the brain's activity is. Kozloski tested his theory by running his model through IBM's neural tissue simulator and found that it could potentially account for genetic mutations such as Huntington's. He argued that information created by one mutated gene could, through the 'Grand Loop', affect an entire neural pathway. So what happens when our brain is at work? And how does expending energy affect our neural processes? Much historic research into anxiety has found that people tend to exert more energy or force when they're being watched -- something that leads to slip-ups or mistakes under pressure.

A map for other people's faces has been discovered in the brain. It could help explain why some of us are better at recognising faces than others. Every part of your body that you can move or feel is represented in the outer layer of your brain. These "maps", found in the motor and sensory cortices (see diagram, below), tend to preserve the basic spatial layout of the body – neurons that represent our fingers are closer to neurons that represent our arms than our feet, for example. The same goes for other people's faces, says Linda Henriksson at Aalto University in Helsinki, Finland. Her team scanned 12 people's brains while they looked at hundreds of images of noses, eyes, mouths and other facial features and recorded which bits of the brain became active. This revealed a region in the occipital face area in which features that are next to each other on a real face are organised together in the brain's representation of that face. The team have called this map the "faciotopy". The occipital face area is a region of the brain known to be involved in general facial processing. "Facial recognition is so fundamental to human behaviour that it makes sense that there would be a specialised area of the brain that maps features of the face," she says. © Copyright Reed Business Information Ltd.

It seems like the ultimate insult, but getting people with brain injuries to do maths may lead to better diagnoses. A trial of the approach has found two people in an apparent vegetative state that may be conscious but "locked-in". People who are in a vegetative state are awake but have lost all cognitive function. Occasionally, people diagnosed as being in this state are actually minimally conscious with fleeting periods of awareness, or even locked-in. This occurs when they are totally aware but unable to move any part of their body. It can be very difficult to distinguish between each state, which is why a team of researchers in China have devised a brain-computer interface that tests whether people with brain injuries can perform mental arithmetic – a clear sign of conscious awareness. The team, led by Yuanqing Li at South China University of Technology and Jiahui Pan at the South China Normal University in Guangzhou showed 11 people with various diagnoses a maths problem on a screen. This was followed by two possible answers flickering at frequencies designed to evoke different patterns of brain activity. Frames around each number also flashed several times. The participants were asked to focus on the correct answer and count the number of times its frame flashed. The brain patterns from the flickering answers together with the detection of another kind of brain signal that occurs when someone counts, enabled a computer to tell which answer, if any, the person was focusing on. © Copyright Reed Business Information Ltd.

Patricia Neighmond When Cathy Fields was in her late 50s, she noticed she was having trouble following conversations with friends. "I could sense something was wrong with me," she says. "I couldn't focus. I could not follow." Fields was worried she had suffered a stroke or was showing signs of early dementia. Instead she found out she had attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or ADHD. Fields is now 66 years old and lives in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla. She's a former secretary and mother of two grown children. Fields was diagnosed with ADHD about eight years ago. Her doctor ruled out any physical problems and suggested she see a psychiatrist. She went to Dr. David Goodman at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, who by chance specializes in ADHD. Goodman asked Fields a number of questions about focus, attention and completing tasks. He asked her about her childhood and how she did in school. Since ADHD begins in childhood, it's important for mental health professionals to understand these childhood experiences in order to make an accurate diagnosis of ADHD in adulthood. Online screening tests are available, too, so you can try it yourself. Goodman decided that Fields most definitely had ADHD. She's not alone. Goodman says he's seeing more and more adults over the age of 50 newly diagnosed with ADHD. © 2016 npr

Laura Sanders Signals in the brain can hint at whether a person undergoing anesthesia will slip under easily or fight the drug, a new study suggests. The results, published January 14 in PLOS Computational Biology, bring scientists closer to being able to tailor doses of the powerful drugs for specific patients. Drug doses are often given with a one-size-fits-all attitude, says bioengineer and neuroscientist Patrick Purdon of Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. But the new study finds clear differences in people's brain responses to similar doses of an anesthetic drug, Purdon says. "To me, that's the key and interesting point." Cognitive neuroscientist Tristan Bekinschtein of the University of Cambridge and colleagues recruited 20 people to receive low doses of the general anesthetic propofol. The low dose wasn't designed to knock people out, but to instead dial down their consciousness until they teetered on the edge of awareness — a point between being awake and alert and being drowsy and nonresponsive. While the drug was being delivered, participants repeatedly heard either a buzzing sound or a noise and were asked each time which they heard, an annoying question designed to gauge awareness. Of the 20 people, seven were sidelined by the propofol and they began to respond less. Thirteen other participants, however, kept right on responding, "fighting the drug," Bekinschtein says. © Society for Science & the Public 2000 - 2016.

Maggie Koerth-Baker In 1990, when James Danckert was 18, his older brother Paul crashed his car into a tree. He was pulled from the wreckage with multiple injuries, including head trauma. The recovery proved difficult. Paul had been a drummer, but even after a broken wrist had healed, drumming no longer made him happy. Over and over, Danckert remembers, Paul complained bitterly that he was just — bored. "There was no hint of apathy about it at all," says Danckert. "It was deeply frustrating and unsatisfying for him to be deeply bored by things he used to love." A few years later, when Danckert was training to become a clinical neuropsychologist, he found himself working with about 20 young men who had also suffered traumatic brain injury. Thinking of his brother, he asked them whether they, too, got bored more easily than they had before. "And every single one of them," he says, "said yes." Those experiences helped to launch Danckert on his current research path. Now a cognitive neuroscientist at the University of Waterloo in Canada, he is one of a small but growing number of investigators engaged in a serious scientific study of boredom. There is no universally accepted definition of boredom. But whatever it is, researchers argue, it is not simply another name for depression or apathy. It seems to be a specific mental state that people find unpleasant — a lack of stimulation that leaves them craving relief, with a host of behavioural, medical and social consequences. © 2016 Nature Publishing Group

Don't blame impulsive people for their poor decisions. It's not necessarily their fault. Impulsivity could result from not having enough time to veto our own actions. At least that is the implication of a twist on a classic experiment on free will. In 1983, neuroscientist Benjamin Libet performed an experiment to test whether we have free will. Participants were asked to voluntarily flex a finger while watching a clock-face with a rotating dot. They had to note the position of the dot as soon as they became aware of their intention to act. As they were doing so, Libet recorded their brain activity via EEG electrodes attached to the scalp. He found that a spike in brain activity called the readiness potential, which precedes a voluntary action, occurred about 350-milliseconds before the volunteers became consciously aware of their intention to act. The readiness potential is thought to signal the brain preparing for movement. Libet interpreted his results to mean that free will is an illusion. But we're not complete slaves to our neurons, he reasoned, as there was a 200-millisecond gap between conscious awareness of our intention and the initiation of movement. Libet argued that this was enough time to consciously veto the action, or exert our "free won't". While Libet's interpretations have remained controversial, this hasn't stopped scientists carrying out variations of his experiment. Among other things, this has revealed that people with Tourette's syndrome, who have uncontrollable tics, experience a shorter veto window than people without the condition, as do those with schizophrenia. © Copyright Reed Business Information Ltd.

By Melissa Healy A new study finds that policies on defining brain death vary from hospital to hospital and could result in serious errors. Since 2010, neurologists have had a clear set of standards and procedures to distinguish a brain-dead patient from one who might emerge from an apparent coma. But when profoundly unresponsive patients are rushed to hospitals around the nation, the physicians who make the crucial call are not always steeped in the diagnostic fine points of brain death and the means of identifying it with complete confidence. State laws governing the diagnosis of brain death vary widely. Some states allow any physician to make the diagnosis, while others dictate the level of specialty a physician making the call must have. Some require that a second physician confirm the diagnosis or that a given period of time elapse. Others make no such demands. Given these situations, hospital policies can be invaluable guides for physicians, hospital administrators and patients' families. In the absence of consistent physician expertise or legal requirements, hospital protocols can translate a scientific consensus into a step-by-step checklist. That would help ensure that no one who is not brain-dead is denied further care or considered a potential organ donor and that the deceased and their families would have every opportunity to donate organs.

By KARL OVE KNAUSGAARD I arrived in Tirana, Albania, on a Sunday evening in late August, on a flight from Istanbul. The sun had set while the plane was midflight, and as we landed in the dark, images of fading light still filled my mind. The man next to me, a young, red-haired American wearing a straw hat, asked me if I knew how to get into town from the airport. I shook my head, put the book I had been reading into my backpack, got up, lifted my suitcase out of the overhead compartment and stood waiting in the aisle for the door up ahead to open. That book was the reason I had come. It was called "Do No Harm," and it was written by the British neurosurgeon Henry Marsh. His job is to slice into the brain, the most complex structure we know of in the universe, where everything that makes us human is contained, and the contrast between the extremely sophisticated and the extremely primitive — all of that work with knives, drills and saws — fascinated me deeply. I had sent Marsh an email, asking if I might meet him in London to watch him operate. He wrote a cordial reply saying that he seldom worked there now, but he was sure something could be arranged. In passing, he mentioned that he would be operating in Albania in August and in Nepal in September, and I asked hesitantly whether I could join him in Albania. Now I was here. Tense and troubled, I stepped out of the door of the airplane, having no idea what lay ahead. I knew as little about Albania as I did about brain surgery. The air was warm and stagnant, the darkness dense. A bus was waiting with its engine running. Most of the passengers were silent, and the few who chatted with one another spoke a language I didn't know. It struck me that 25 years ago, when this was among the last remaining Communist states in Europe, I would not have been allowed to enter; then, the country was closed to the outside world, almost like North Korea today. Now the immigration officer barely glanced at my passport before stamping it. She dully handed it back to me, and I entered Albania. © 2015 The New York Times Company

By Diana Kwon Pupils are a rich source of social information. Although changes in pupil size are automatic and uncontrollable, they can convey interest, arousal, helpful or harmful intentions, and a variety of emotions. According to a new study published in Psychological Science, we even synchronize our pupil size with others—and doing so influences social decisions. Mariska Kret, a psychologist now at the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands, and her colleagues recruited 69 Dutch university students to take part in an investment game. Each participant decided whether to transfer zero or five euros to a virtual partner after viewing a video of their eyes for four seconds. The invested money is tripled, and the receiver chooses how much to give back to the donor—so subjects had to make quick decisions about how trustworthy each virtual partner seemed. Using an eye tracker, the investigators found that the participants' pupils tended to mimic the changes in the partners' pupils, whether they dilated, constricted or remained static. As expected, subjects were more likely to give more money to partners with dilating pupils, a well-established signal of nonthreatening intentions. The more a subject mirrored the dilating pupils of a partner, the more likely he or she was to invest—but only if they were of the same race. The Caucasian participants trusted Caucasian eyes more than Asian eyes—which suggests that group membership is important when interpreting these subtle signals. © 2015 Scientific American

James Bond's villain in the latest 007 film, Spectre, could use a lesson in neuroanatomy, a Toronto neurosurgeon says. In a scene recorded in a Morroccan desert, Ernst Stavro Blofeld, played by Christoph Waltz, tortures Bond using restraints and a head clamp fused with a robotic drill. The goal is to inflict pain and erase 007's memory bank of faces. But Blofeld didn't have his brain anatomy down and could have likely killed Daniel Craig's character instead, Dr. Michael Cusimano of St. Michael's Hospital, says in a letter published in this week's issue of the journal Nature. Aiming to erase Bond's memory of faces, the villain correctly intends to drill into the lateral fusiform gyrus, an area of the brain responsible for recognizing faces, Cusimano said. But in practice, the drill was placed in the wrong area, aiming for the neck instead of the brain. "Whereas the drill should have been aimed just in front of 007's ear, it was directed below the mastoid process under and behind his left ear," Cusimano wrote. It likely would have triggered a stroke or massive hemorrhage, he said. In a draft of the letter, Cusimano said he was "spellbound" watching the film in a packed theatre, but his enjoyment was somewhat marred by the blunder. "I laughed," he recalled in an interview. "I think people around me kind of looked at me and were wondering why I was laughing because it's a pretty tense part of the movie." ©2015 CBC/Radio-Canada.

By Ferris Jabr Matthew Brien has struggled with overeating for the past 20 years. At age 24, he stood at 5′10′′ and weighed a trim 135 pounds. Today the licensed massage therapist tips the scales at 230 pounds and finds it particularly difficult to resist bread, pasta, soda, cookies and ice cream—especially those dense pints stuffed with almonds and chocolate chunks. He has tried various weight-loss programs that limit food portions, but he can never keep it up for long. "It's almost subconscious," he says. "Dinner is done? Okay, I am going to have dessert. Maybe someone else can have just two scoops of ice cream, but I am going to have the whole damn [container]. I can't shut those feelings down." Eating for the sake of pleasure, rather than survival, is nothing new. But only in the past several years have researchers come to understand deeply how certain foods—particularly fats and sweets—actually change brain chemistry in a way that drives some people to overconsume. Scientists have a relatively new name for such cravings: hedonic hunger, a powerful desire for food in the absence of any need for it; the yearning we experience when our stomach is full but our brain is still ravenous. And a growing number of experts now argue that hedonic hunger is one of the primary contributors to surging obesity rates in developed countries worldwide, particularly in the U.S., where scrumptious desserts and mouthwatering junk foods are cheap and plentiful. "Shifting the focus to pleasure" is a new approach to understanding hunger and weight gain, says Michael Lowe, a clinical psychologist at Drexel University who coined the term "hedonic hunger" in 2007. © 2015 Scientific American

By JOSEPH LEDOUX IN this age of terror, we struggle to figure out how to protect ourselves — especially, of late, from active shooters. One suggestion, promoted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Department of Homeland Security, and now widely disseminated, is "run, hide, fight." The idea is: Run if you can; hide if you can't run; and fight if all else fails. This three-step program appeals to common sense, but whether it makes scientific sense is another question. Underlying the idea of "run, hide, fight" is the presumption that volitional choices are readily available in situations of danger. But the fact is, when you are in danger, whether it is a bicyclist speeding at you or a shooter locked and loaded, you may well find yourself frozen, unable to act and think clearly. Freezing is not a choice. It is a built-in impulse controlled by ancient circuits in the brain involving the amygdala and its neural partners, and is automatically set into motion by external threats. By contrast, the kinds of intentional actions implied by "run, hide, fight" require newer circuits in the neocortex. Contemporary science has refined the old "fight or flight" concept — the idea that those are the two hard-wired options when in mortal danger — to the updated "freeze, flee, fight." While "freeze, flee, fight" is superficially similar to "run, hide, fight," the two expressions make fundamentally different assumptions about how and why we do what we do, when in danger. Why do we freeze? It's part of a predatory defense system that is wired to keep the organism alive. Not only do we do it, but so do other mammals and other vertebrates. Even invertebrates — like flies — freeze. If you are freezing, you are less likely to be detected if the predator is far away, and if the predator is close by, you can postpone the attack (movement by the prey is a trigger for attack). © 2015 The New York Times Company

Amarillo is growing and the downtown area in particular is changing. Residents can point with pride to the new Performing Arts Center, and Center City has many plans for downtown revitalization.
Both the success of the downtown renovations and the attractiveness of the downtown area, however, are somewhat contingent upon the elimination or reduction of the number of homeless people living on the downtown streets.
Often community residents fail to realize the extent to which we rely upon homeless providers to help reduce or eliminate the homelessness problem. Amarillo has six homeless shelters: Salvation Army, Faith City Ministries, Abba House, Family Support Domestic Violence Center, Martha's Home and Another Chance House. All the shelters are located in or near the downtown area, and it is estimated that 400 homeless individuals live in the six shelters combined.
Were it not for these non-profit entities, an additional 400 homeless men, women and children would be living on our streets.
Just as you cannot judge a book by its cover, you cannot judge the homeless by the ones you see on the streets asking for handouts. According to statistics published by the National Coalition for the Homeless, 39 percent of homeless populations are children under 18, and 42 percent of these children are under age 5. Families with children comprise 38 percent of the homeless, and they comprise the fastest growing segment of the homeless population.
With respect to helping homeless individuals, there's an analogy that it is much better to teach impoverished people to fish than to give them fish to eat. The point is that we need to teach the homeless skills so they can find employment and live independently.
In reality, however, most homeless people who are able to work are working, but their job skills are limited and they are only making minimum wage. Estimates show that under current economic conditions, an individual making minimum wage would have to work 89 hours each week just to afford a two-bedroom apartment.
The fish analogy can be expanded to say that even when the homeless know how to fish, they need a map to find the lake. In other words, for many homeless to become independent, they need additional services, and it is these services that the shelters - along with Tyler Street Resource Center, 2-1-1 Texas and several faith-based ministries - provide.
In Amarillo, those who work with the homeless have joined together to form the Amarillo Coalition for the Homeless. This group of dedicated and caring individuals meets every month to discuss issues related to homelessness. Its members coordinate services such as legal aid, gas vouchers, medical assistance and child care; discuss case management; and collaborate on writing grants.
The directors of these shelters dedicate countless hours of time and energy to taking care of problems that others in the city prefer to let someone else deal with. Their average salary is minimal considering the number of hours they devote to public service.
The shelters and other agencies that assist the homeless depend upon government resources, community businesses, private foundations and churches for payment of expenses. Costs continue to escalate at the same time that funds for operating the shelters continue to decrease. This past year the homeless providers did not receive funding from the Emergency Shelter Grant Program. The loss of funds amounted to $169,000.
This is money that homeless providers had planned to use to maintain their operations and keep programs open. One can only speculate as to the impact this will have on the downtown area and downtown revitalization efforts, but it's probable that providers will need more community support and monetary assistance.
To the extent that the community does become involved in helping the homeless, the community will benefit. Homelessness is a state of being, not a state of mind. Homelessness is neither helplessness nor hopelessness.
Homeless individuals have feelings, pride, potential and dreams for the future. The dedicated individuals who work with the homeless know the benefits of helping, and they are motivated by seeing progress and transformation of homeless individuals when services are given and resources are found.
Let us show that Amarillo is a community that cares. Whereas $50 might buy you a dinner and evening of entertainment, it will feed a single woman and her children for more a week. Through giving to the homeless, you not only will be changing individual lives, you also will be helping with the downtown revitalization efforts and improving our community.
