Tennessee Authors of Adult Fiction, Poetry & Drama: 1970s - Present
This working list of Tennessee authors of adult fiction, poetry and drama is intended to update and supplement available published works listing Tennessee authors, such as:
Other published works collect short pieces by Tennesseans and give biographical notes, including the following:
A good way to learn about new books by Tennesseans or about Tennessee is to check the feature "Tennessee Bibliography" in the spring issue of the Tennessee Librarian. It has been an annual feature for fifteen years.
This list includes authors with a strong connection to Tennessee writing since 1970. It includes known information about each author, and indicates by short title each post-1970 published monographic work (or piece in a Tennessee anthology) located in a general search. The list is in no way intended to be complete or absolutely accurate; it is a working list and corrections and additions are welcome.
A number of authors have no works listed under their names; this is because they have no monographs known to the compiler at this time. Many of them have had stories, plays and poems published in periodicals and anthologies. These writers are the hardest to identify and keep current files on, and biographical information is often not easily available. If you know of such writers in your community, it would be appreciated if you would let us know so we can make the list more useful.

 [Paddys cross, betimes - A blog from the Bog] Winter 1962/63 v's 2009/2010
 A schoolmate of mine reminded me of the wonderland that was Loughrea when the lake froze over in 1963, him having heard a cautionary interview about walking on thin ice on lakes on Galway Bay FM on Friday last.

 Though just a kid I remember being part of a group walking across the lake from Long Point to Cooreen, via Island McHugo and the Bishop's. I was just talking to my sister about it yesterday, recounting Norman Morgan's attempt to prove that Volkswagen Beetles were capable of floating...well of Ice-Roadin' at least, before the car went through the ice at the Grove at the County Home. She told me about the parties the teenagers had on the smaller Islands beyond the barracks and the few Tynagh Mine-brats' who actually had real Ice-Skates. One couple had brought real snow Skis from Canada with them! What were they thinking when they emigrated to the west of Ireland?

 Dad built us a sled, a toboggan, but it was a bit of a pig really, a heavy wooden jobbie on which he dragged a bunch of us across the frozen lake pulling the rope with one hand, while holding four rather bemused looking greyhounds on leashes with the other. I remember being simultaneously terrified of drowning in an icy hole in the middle of the lake, while wishing this magical dream would never end!

 My memories are those of a child, no doubt exaggerated and inaccurate, but I remember what seemed like the whole town being out on the ice that time. I still have memories of skimming stones at Flaggy Meadow, the stones bouncing and skidding for hundreds of yards across the frozen lake waters. The bigger boys competing, 'can you make the island with the next stone' and 'mine went a half-a-mile, way past yours'. The eerie echo of the ice cracking and the stones zing-ing, ricocheting and thunking across the unexpected artic plain, and the silence only punctuated by the nervous excited cries of children with their mouths agog at the impossibility of walking on water.

 Later on I remember the ice thawing and our parents being more cautious about letting us wander near the lake. Nonetheless I remember an older boy crashing through the ice at Flaggy Meadow, and watching in horror as he struggled, knowing for sure, he was going to drown, watching helplessly as a child does, recording his demise, only to see him rise like a phoenix as he successively clambered up on, and broke through plate after plate of ice, until he reached a shallow enough point to finally get back up on the ice. Funny thing I remember going through the ice myself at the back of the Temperance hall, sliding along the frozen slides and suddenly being neck deep in very cold water. The thing is, I don't remember going home to change, we just continued playing on our new winter playground. No wonder I had asthma as a kid!

 But no-one died, nor even had a bad fall it seemed, only great gobs of innocent fun! No X-Box back then!
 I recall visiting the islands in our boat years later and seeing the remains of the bonfires the older teenagers lit to enjoy their illicit beers and late-night sing-songs and surreptitious snogs on a heretofore inaccessible part of their town. The scandal of what went on at those parties seems to have been more the talk of the town than the absolute lifetime event of being able to Jesus-walk across the lake to see the Bishops Palace!

 Yes indeed, looking back now, we really did have an impoverished and dull childhood in Loughrea in the sixties. Nothing exciting ever happened back then! Duh! And so, yesterday, I walked and kicked a soccer ball from Long Point to Fair Green, with my 10-year old son David, his buddy Breffni, and my friends, Brian and Paddy on the frozen lake. First time since 1963 that the whole lake froze so completely over, though it did freeze pretty hard too in 1982 as the younger Paddy and Brian reminded me, the old man.

 Dull, sleeting and very cold...but the lake was magical. Frozen completely, up to 4 inches thick where we checked one ice-hole off Long Point where someone tried ice-fishing in...though not all of the lake is walkable especially near Island McHugo, where a fiercely audible ice-crack sent us scampering like frightened lemmings back towards the relative safety of the Point.

 Hundreds of people were wandering on the ice all day (all week apparently)...we saw 2 teenage girls with ice skates that were capably navigating the biggest ice-rink in Ireland, one guy with snow skis, (he's from Tynagh, brought them back from San Francisco 3 years ago...what was he thinking?) and an old geezer on a push-bike, buzzed us twice, meandering happily all over the lake, beaming in his hi-viz jacket!

 Poles, Brazillians and Latvians mixed with equally bemused locals....it's become quite the tourist attraction...even the guardai were chilling...not interfering. No sign of anyone taking a car out on the ice yet, though I suspect it would bear it. Baffle were preparing for a hot-wine and poetry reading sessiun on the little crannog island behind the Barracks at 4.30pm.....I wish we could've waited!

 Perhaps little David will catch it next time round, with his son! There are some things money just can't buy.

When: Saturday, October 29, 3:00 p.m.
Opponent: vs. Ottawa (5-5-0)
Despite their respectable 3-3-2 record, there's a sense of
urgency surrounding the Rangers. The
team may be in decent shape in the standings, but anyone who's seen them play
this season knows that the 2011-2012 Blueshirts haven't come close to playing a
solid game of hockey yet.
Too many penalties and too little offense have plagued New
York since the first game of the season, but in general this team has lacked
the fire and commitment that made it one of the toughest teams to play against
in the National Hockey League a year ago.
Entering the season one of the biggest challenges for Coach
John Tortorella was thought to be how he could motivate the Rangers to play
that same blue-collar style while infusing more talent this season.
So far the relentless work ethic that was exhibited almost
every game last season has been absent, as has the added skill.
Maybe Saturday will finally be the day the Rangers put a
whole game together.
There have been plenty of reasonable explanations for the
early-season struggles. Injuries, a
daunting road trip and the circus surrounding the re-opening of Madison Square
Garden were all distractions and created difficult opening-season circumstances.
The team doesn't have No. 1 defenseman Marc Staal back yet,
but everything else is now behind it.
New York's play has been frustrating, but Thursday's first
period against Toronto showed that this team can play at a higher level; it
just hasn't come close to sustaining that level yet..
Coach John Tortorella continues to tinker with lines in an
effort to forge some chemistry and will deploy some interesting combinations on
Saturday. Although they may seem
puzzling on paper, nothing else has really worked.
Marian Gaborik has been the one Rangers' forward that has
brought his A-game since day one, so Tortorella is seeking a way to jumpstart
other players. Perhaps Brad Richards will
be able to provide Brandon Dubinsky and Ryan Callahan with a spark.
The good news for the Blueshirts is that Ottawa has already
given up 39 goals this year, by far the most in the league. The Senators are also 29th on the penalty
kill, but they aren't a patsy.
Ottawa has won four games in a row, but if the Rangers can
put together an effort reminiscent of the 2010-2011 campaign, they may finally
bust out.
- Mike Rupp and Michael Del Zotto sat out practice on
Friday. Del Zotto has a hip
flexor but should
play on Saturday while Rupp continues to nurse a "cranky" knee.
- Lines used at
practice on Friday:
Wojtek Wolski/Erik Christensen/Marian Gaborik
Brandon Dubinsky/Brad Richards/Ryan Callahan
Ruslan Fedotenko/Brian Boyle/Brandon Prust

Buzz: The NHLPA's Next Step Is To File a Disclaimer of Interest
Friedman wrote today "Barring a breakthrough in mediation, it's expected the NHLPA will begin moving in that direction very shortly. It can take effect immediately. It's what the NBA did days before reaching a settlement last November."
On the NBA disclaiming interest last year, Larry Coon wrote at ESPN.com that the NBAPA removed itself as the bargaining unit for the players and converted itself into a trade association.
Derek Fisher, the NBAPA president at the time said, "After two years of making an effort, we concluded that the process has not worked. We cannot get a fair deal."
Coon adds "In utilizing a disclaimer of interest rather than an involuntary decertification, the players have chosen a timelier but riskier approach. The disclaimer will likely be challenged by the league as a "sham," as the NFL did when faced with the disclaimer issued by the players' association; the league argued that the dissolution was merely a negotiating tactic, and that the union was still representing the players' interests."
He adds that the big reason to do this is to gain leverage and flip the script, "But the real point of dissolving the union is to generate leverage. The players don't really want to go all the way to trial — they want to settle. If the players win a major victory early in the case and the owners are forced to accept the prospect of a catastrophic result in court, then the players have gained real leverage."

The EOS 60Da features an 18.0 Megapixel APS-C size CMOS sensor that captures such a high level of resolution it's easy to crop images for enlargement without concern of losing detail. A major factor in reducing noise, the CMOS sensor assures that images shot at highest sensitivity will be remarkably smooth even with the long exposures associated with astrophotography.
With a broad range of ISO settings, expandable up to ISO 12800 with Custom Functions, the EOS 60Da can capture fine details with low noise, which is exceptionally ideal for the challenging conditions of astrophotography.
The DIGIC 4 Image Processor - the same found on the original EOS 60D - ensures that images are captured, processed and saved with remarkable speed. The EOS 60Da offers multiple aspect ratio shooting, in-camera RAW image processing, creative filters, image resizing and provides S2 and S3 image-recording quality thanks to the power of the DIGIC 4 Image Processor. With dazzling results, the DIGIC 4 Image Processor also works to capture and process data of images shot at 18.0 Megapixels at 5.3 fps, as well as 14-bit signal processing for excellent image gradation, no matter the exposure.
Prices and specifications subject to change without notice. Actual prices are determined by individual dealers and may vary.

The NVIDIA® OptiX™ Ray Tracing Engine is a programmable ray tracing framework helping software developers build ray tracing applications in a fraction of the time of conventional methods, that then run exceedingly fast on NVIDIA GPUs. Unlike a renderer with a prescribed look, a language limited to rendering, or prescribed solutions with fixed data structures, the OptiX engine is extremely general - enabling developers to quickly accelerate whatever ray tracing task they wish, integrate it as needed, and run it on commonly available hardware.
Rapid Ray Tracing Development
The OptiX engine takes care of the "heavy lifting" associated with ray tracing, giving developers more time to concentrate on technique with relatively small programs that leverage the latest GPU advances. A single ray execution model makes building custom techniques straightforward, while state of the art acceleration structures (such as BVH), cutting edge traversal algorithms, load balancing, recursion, parallelism (across CUDA Cores and GPUs), out of core processing, and interop with OpenGL, Direct3D and CUDA, makes ray tracing development far easier than alternative approaches.
OptiX For GamesOptiX is used within the Games industry to greatly accelerate a variety of production tasks such as accurate ambient occlusion and light baking. Real time systems have used OptiX for acoustics, collision detection and line of sight. Server-side rendering solutions are also providing cloud-enabled games with photorealistic portraits and cinematics.
OptiX Registered Development ProgramThe Gameworks registered developer program gives you immediate access to OptiX 3.0.1. Additionally, OptiX enters its fourth year with it's own dedicated developer program, providing you with a central place for ray tracing information while helping NVIDIA better understand and serve the growing and diverse needs of the many developers employing OptiX. After successfully registering, you will have access to the latest OptiX 3.5 SDK and will be able to contribute more direct feedback to help us guide the direction of OptiX.
Ray Tracing Flexibility
OptiX easily extends beyond image creation by enabling rays to gather and carry custom payloads. The data fed to OptiX is also programmable, enabling custom shading techniques, programmable intersection for procedural definitions, and programmable cameras for customized ray dispatching. This flexibility enables OptiX to accelerate ray traced rendering algorithms ranging from the highly interactive to the ultra-realistic, while also accommodating disciplines such as acoustics, ballistics, collision analysis, radiation reflectance, or volume calculations - wherever intensive ray tracing calculations are employed.
Rapid Evolution
Applications employing OptiX continually increase in speed by using consistent APIs that exploit the latest advances from both new hardware and ray tracing research at NVIDIA. As a compiler based technology, OptiX builds the optimal runtime for the processors it finds, freeing developers from having to optimize their applications per GPU architecture.

Slobodan Milosevic
Paul Vreeker/Associated Press
Slobodan Milosevic, the Communist leader whose embrace of Serbian nationalism set off almost a decade of Balkan warfare, was found dead in his cell at the United Nations detention center in The Hague on March 11, 2006.
Death came as Mr. Milosevic's four-year trial for war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide was drawing to a close with a verdict expected later that year.
He was the first former head of state to answer charges of such crimes and his was the longest war-crimes trial of modern times, delayed by Mr. Milosevic's frequent bouts of illness related to high blood pressure and a bad heart.
The complex indictment covered the events of three wars — in Croatia, Bosnia and Kosovo — and almost a decade of bloodshed and vengeance that killed more than 200,000 people and earned Mr. Milosevic the sobriquet "Butcher of the Balkans."
As he rose and then clung to power by resurrecting old nationalist grudges and inciting dreams of a Greater Serbia, Mr. Milosevic became the prime engineer of wars that pitted his fellow Serbs against the Slovenes, the Croats, the Bosnians, the Albanians of Kosovo and ultimately the combined forces of the entire NATO alliance.
By stirring a dormant but incendiary nationalism, he succeeded in rallying support for himself in the late 1980's, at a time when Communism in the rest of Eastern Europe was in its death throes.
Exercising carefully calculated control of the media and operating ruthlessly behind the scenes, Mr. Milosevic established a cult of personality that struck fear into non-Serbs in Yugoslavia.
The consequences of Mr. Milosevic's rule for Serbia were devastating. His final confrontation, with the Albanians of Kosovo, provoked a NATO bombing assault in the spring of 1999 that destroyed government buildings, factories and much infrastructure in a land already ruined by years of international sanctions intended to punish Mr. Milosevic for instigating earlier wars.

Funny, I was told about this client for the first time the other day. I figured the name was so strange that I'd never remember it, and that I'd never hear of it again.
Strange how these things come round :w00t:
Ok, so looking for another source of bittorrentness... I got curious about some of the available clients out there and I came across this.... and I like it.
It is a java client....
Funny, I was told about this client for the first time the other day. I figured the name was so strange that I'd never remember it, and that I'd never hear of it again.
Strange how these things come round :w00t:
heheh, 'btdownloadcurses.py Everything_on_the_net.torrent'
I've used it to download Mandrake 10 ce and official and it worked very well for me. What I liked best was being able to control my upload speeds - something that I could no longer do with btdownload - don't know why. Anyway it's quite nice.
Azureus is a nice bittorrent client. I have used it many times and the only place I have had problems is trying to save my downloads to a FAT32 partition. It complains with some obscure error. It seems to give you more options than the btdownloadcurses.py version. Maybe that is just because of its point and click nature...

GnuPG ID: 406238E7
If you like your GUI's big, fluffy and loaded with bells and whistles, azureus rules. Otherwise, bittornado, or the other shadow's client are both much lighter weight, and just a bit zippier.
I honestly don't mind the load from java.... and it works on my linux and my windows boxes....
Then I say right on!!! I actually really dig azureus, and use it as often as I have room for another gui app running on my desktop.
New note:
Check out the latest version of azureus, and grab the plug-ins they make available. The current version will update itself and do all sorts of other nifty things for you! In addition, it makes life really, really easy for people (like me) who run multiple distros. If you download and install the latest version into a folder and copy that folder to any other distro you have, it'll run just the same. Kinda handy if you're running a new distro and aren't sure how easily you'll be able to get bittorrent up and running, possibly from source. Just install a new distro, copy the azureus directory and "poof", torrent heaven! (You do, of course, need to have java installed...)
I'm gonna hide this little blurb here. I've been working at a much accelerated rate on my own distro/package, and will go beta in about 2 weeks, via torrent only. I also have a really big iso collection shareable peer to peer via torrent. Private message for details.

Comments about Fender American Vintage '72 Telecaster Custom Electric Guitar:
Even though I'm more of a Gibson guy than a Fender guy, I must say that this guitar came as advertised, and I was extremely pleased, and impressed. After having problems with MULTIPLE Gibsons that I ordered, which surprised and disappointed me considering how much I love my Les Pauls, I ordered this one for my girlfriend, and first one came perfect. No need for sending back, returns, or exchanges. Must be better Quality Control at Fender these days. Only thing I'm considering doing is swapping out the vintage 3 Saddle bridge for the 6 saddle (which was conveniently included) since I'm having slight intonation problems.

Comments about Fender American Vintage '72 Telecaster Custom Electric Guitar:
I've really wanted one since I was 17. I probably would have been happy with the MIM model, but the wife got me the US one for my birthday. It was a bit more two years ago, though. The black one I got looks sharp. The tone is fantastic, but I'm not sure that alone justifies the extra dough. I'm used to larger frets, so I have to really think about it when I switch guitars. A bit tougher to make my bends and rolls sound consistent. It's not a good candidate for the heavier strings I've grown accustomed to, either. I like the idea of the micro-tilt adjustment, but haven't seen the need to play around with it, as of yet. It's really a niche guitar and I'm reluctant to do any mods to it considering the price. Again, it has the hands-down best tone I've heard from any guitar I've owned. If it's the first one I pick up at the beginning of a practice/jam/recording session, I can work up to making it sound fantastic. It just takes a lighter touch. I really want to get the Custom Deluxe '72 with the dual humbuckers and fat headstock. If this one is any indication of what I can expect, I can't really justify the American made and will probably buy the MIM. Don't tell my wife. I love this guitar just for the fact she bought it for me out of love.

Comments about Fender American Vintage '72 Telecaster Custom Electric Guitar:
Let me start with the negative... The first AVRI 72 Custom I received had a nasty blem, a bad ground (hum when not touching strings) and the neck was not aligned correctly (the high e string was almost off the fret board by the 19th fret). None were major issues alone, but given all three were on my new guitar, MF suggested I send it back. There's my bad experience... And kudos to MF for the customer experience. They overnighted me a new Tele after getting the first one back.
Now, for the good! The second one I received was absolutely flawless. Perfect set up, gorgeous finish and great feel. This guitar reminds me of the amazing feel I get from the 52 RI. It just feels great. I even like the 7.25" radius on the neck and I'm a string bender.
Tone - perfect! I love this Wide Range Humbucker. It has a great fat tone, but is laid back and pairs really nice with the bridge. This guitar is a versatile tone machine. I just love it.
It comes in a nice black G&G tolex case with the usual goodies. I am very happy with my decision to purchase it.

Comments about Fender American Vintage '72 Telecaster Custom Electric Guitar:
I primarily bought this guitar to match the tone of Keith Richards open G tuning Rolling Stones sound. It certainly does the job!!! I believe the action may be a little to low, but minus that this guitar pulls out some great Fender tone'age!!! This is a MUST have Tele in anyone's collection!
Comments about Fender American Vintage '72 Telecaster Custom Electric Guitar:
A beautiful, well-built guitar. I couldn't bond with the vintage-style frets. The 7 1/4" fretboard radius didn't bother me like I thought it might. The pickups were just plain uninspiring, unfortunately.
It's a reissue model... You get what you were looking for.
Seemed very solid. It's was a really nice-looking guitar, too.
Not sure why it should command that much more than a USA standard tele.
Comments about Fender American Vintage '72 Telecaster Custom Electric Guitar:
This is a very nice guitar. The quality is top-notch; the overall fit-and-finish is excellent. The solid ash body is finished in a beautiful, very thin nitro. I have the sunburst, and the grain of the wood shows through very nicely. To my eye, it's just about the coolest looking guitar ever. Some people complain that the pick guard takes up too much room, but that's part of the charm. The 70s was the decade of wide ties, brown, beige and orange, and cars that came from the factory with flaming eagles and cobras on the hood. This Telecaster captures the "style" of that era perfectly.
As for the most important part - how it plays - I'm using a Les Paul Traditional and an American Special Telecaster for comparison. The reissue humbucker is not the same as the original, but it does sound good once you spend some time with it. At first I thought it sounded muddy, but within a few hours I was able to get a great tone and I don't think I will need to modify the guitar. You can get a great Wes Montogomery tone on the humbucker, and then switch to the bridge for a perfect Andy Summers "Roxanne" tone. Although similar in construction to a Gibson humbucker, when overdriven the Fender pickup sounds "creamier" than the Les Paul Traditional's 57 Classic. The humbucker sounds way better than the neck position Texas Special does when overdriven, but the Texas Special has a nicer, "classic Telecaster" clean tone. The vintage bridge pickup is not as hot as the Texas Special on the American Special Telecaster, but it has more grit, snarl and is more articulate. It sounds great. In the middle position, you can get loads of different tones by experimenting with the separate volume and tone controls.
The period-correct 7.25" radius neck is different than the Mexican version of this guitar. It demands more from you, but I like the feel. When I switch back to the Les Paul or American Special, string bending is a breeze - even with 11s. I like how the 7.25" neck fights back a bit; I think it will improve my playing.
The only thing to indicate that it's an American Vintage is the "V" serial number on the neck plate. There are no "Made in USA" or other markings anywhere else on the guitar.
For a reissue, the humbucker should be closer to the original, but aside from that historical inaccuracy, this is a very good guitar. The only reason I didn't give it a higher score for value is because the Mexican version of this guitar is also very good, but it's not as nice.
Comments about Fender American Vintage '72 Telecaster Custom Electric Guitar:
This reissue is by far better than the orignal models in the 70s that were heavy and lacked a nitro finish. The three bolt neck is fine and secure. The nitro finish lets it breathe for that all out tone. I usually upgrade electronics and sometime sthe pickups on my guitars but this is one of the few that I played right out of the box and plan no upgrades. It is merely perfect as is, which says alot. I highly recommend it as I own one now.
Get alot of tone combinations with the two volumes and tones. Good tone caps and electronics, no upgrades needed. The entire axe breathes with the beautiful nitro finish.
I have owned various American Fenders and numerous Custom Shop guitars. The quality on this model is unsurpassed with a great attention to detail.
A great value for an American made classic that is actually better than the original vintage models.
Comments about Fender American Vintage '72 Telecaster Custom Electric Guitar:
This is a really great tone machine with high levels of quality, a great paintjob that breathes, nice weight ash body, and tone from all directions. Very nice to be able to back off the treble a little bit on the bridge pickup and still have control of the neck tone settings! Check out the Fender Vision Jimmy Vivino demo of this axe, this really helped with my decision! He is correct, this is one instance where the reissue is truly better than the vintage one. I recommend this one.
Very versitale tele with the indivdiual tone and volumes. Also the humbucker!
The quality is perfect. I play alot of Custom Shop Fenders and this one I put right up there! They did it right with this one, the attention to detail is fantastic. Tone is great!
Great value for a American Vintage issue with Nitro and quality woods! The electronics even have the good caps that the Custom Shop uses!

The Canyon View Cougars were easily defeated by the Mont Harmon Pirates in a game on September 7.
The Cougars were obviously no match for this year's strong Mont Harmon team when they were crushed by the destructive power of the Pirate's offense and defense.
It was clear after just the first series of plays in the game that the Cougars were over matched by the Pirates.
Once again, the Pirate's defense was so overwhelming that they held another team scoreless. In this game, the defense only allowed four first downs, three of those due to penalties.
The offense also dominated the Cougars. They scored six touchdowns to end the game with a landslide 52-0 score. The Pirates opened up their playbook and the Cougar's defense had no answer.
Angel Romero lead the Pirate's offense with an amazing three touchdowns. With Nathan Martinez's powerful running style, the team is easily becoming an upstoppable 1-2 punch.
Joey Keller, quarterback for the team, runs the offense in such poise and always makes the right decisions during the game.
Joshua Denison returned an amazing kick off 68-yard for the Pirate's other touchdown in the game.
With Tyson Stevens and Mike McMiller on the defense, it is hard to see where this year's team is weak.
"They are playing beyond their potential," said Tim Tiller, head coach of the Mont Harmon football team. He also added that "they are getting stronger and stronger each week."
This is the third game of the Pirate's season. The Pirates have had no trouble defeating any of the teams they have gone up against this year. Mont Harmon has defeated San Rafael and Uintah this year and can now add Canyon View to that list.
The Mont Harmon team is obviously going to be a force to be reckoned with this season.

Meet the brain of your closest living relative in the Animal Kingdom…
It is easy to make the assumption that this is a human brain… the visual similarities are plain to see! But this is in fact the brain of a pan troglodytes, or as we know them, the chimpanzee.
We share a stunning 94% of our DNA with chimpanzees, and we can see the incredible closeness we have with them by looking at this brain. To the untrained eye the only difference we can see is in size – the human brain is a whopping three times larger than that of our hairy little cousin!
The similarities are not just on the surface but in the development of the brain itself. Humans and chimpanzees are perhaps the only species in which the brain continues developing after birth. When we are born, the part of our brain that controls our most complex cognitive functions, such as self-awareness and creativity, is not fully formed yet. It then starts developing very quickly…and much the same happens with chimpanzees.
So why do both humans and chimps share this commonality? The answer, it seems, is that this delay allows human and chimp brains to learn things they otherwise would not be able to. The delay gives their brains far greater plasticity, which, as Tetsuro Matsuzawa of Kyoto University explains, leaves "their neural network and brain function more susceptible to the influence of postnatal experience." Basically, the time spent waiting for the forebrain to grow is spent learning complex social interactions and establishing basic skills that will serve humans and chimpanzees well over the course of their lives.
Of course, there comes a point where the human brain develops and moves far beyond that of the chimpanzee, but by that stage the chimp has gained the ability to do many things that continue to astound scientists. They have their own complex method of communication, but research has shown they can also understand basic human language and comprehend numbers and counting. They also use tools to help themselves on a day-to-day basis and have good memory skills. Incredible!
Chimpanzees are so smart that in 1961 the American Space Program sent a young chimp called Ham into space! He operated levers in a basic space capsule which paved the way for a human manned capsule several months later. Ham returned safely to Earth and lived the rest of his life as a national hero.
- What does it take to man a solo mission into space like Ham? Do you think you could do it?
- After seeing how similar our brains are, do you think Chimpanzees can 'think' like humans?
- How would you feel about donating your brain to science?

Introduction to cataracts:
Most people think of the elderly when they think about cataracts, but cataracts can also occur in babies and children. They are a leading preventable and treatable cause of blindness in children.
What is cataracts?
The lens of the eye is our window to the world. Normally, this lens is crystal clear, transmitting and focusing light. A cataract is cloudiness of the lens.
Who gets cataracts?
Most of the time no rhyme or reason is found as to which babies get cataracts.
Cataracts tend to be more common in those born prematurely. Sometimes they run in families. They have also been associated with a number of prenatal infections, including chickenpox, CMV, herpes, influenza, measles, polio, rubella, and toxoplasmosis. They occur more commonly in chromosomal disorders such as Down syndrome. They are more common in those with inborn errors of metabolism such as galactosemia, with endocrine problems such as diabetes, and in association with certain medications, such as steroids. There has also been an association with eczema.
In addition, excessive sun exposure during childhood can lead to cataracts as an adult.
Even with all of these associations, for most cataracts the underlying cause is not found.
What are the symptoms of cataracts?
Cataracts are usually discovered because of a white reflection from the baby's pupil. They are sometimes found when a child is examined for inability to focus both eyes on an object.
Cataracts result in vision loss or blindness until treated. Even mild cataracts that initially have a minimal impact on vision can lead to vision loss from amblyopia if not treated.
Is cataracts contagious?
No – although some of the causes of cataracts are contagious.
How long does cataracts last?
Cataracts last until treated. Even after a cataract is removed, amblyopia may last until treated.
How is cataracts diagnosed?
Cataracts are suspected on routine physical examination. They are characterized and diagnosed on a full eye exam.
How can cataracts be prevented?
Sunglasses protect children's eyes from the UV rays and decrease the risk of cataracts in adulthood.
Cataracts are often impossible to prevent. Preventing maternal infections during pregnancy is the best bet for preventing cataracts in children. To prevent toxoplasmosis, for instance, avoid eating undercooked meat, cleaning cat litter, and digging in the soil with bare hands. For prevention of other cataract triggers, see the individual articles.
