Scientists at Haifa's Technion-Israel Institute for Technology have developed for the first time three-dimensional cell networks that can simulate complex aspects of brain activity. These, say the researchers, could provide a better understanding of the physiology of the central nervous system. Called Optonet, the cultures could enable a better understanding of complex activity within neural networks.Neural cells grown on laboratory plates (two-dimensional neural cultures) constitute a convenient model for many studies in neuroscience and medicine. Their main advantage is the relative simplicity with which they can be used to examine physiological changes in neural cells' activity patterns caused by changes in the environment. However, the shortcomings of these simple 2D cultures is that they contain only a single layer of cells and do not exhibit the complex three-dimensional network connectivity found in real brains.

Previous attempts to develop 3D models for studying the central nervous system have met with limited success, mainly due to the high complexity of the task of developing a 3D culture capable of simulating brain tissue as well as challenges connected to developing methods for observing network activity in 3D. Technion biomedical engineers led by Prof. Shy Shoham recently reported their discovery in Nature Communications, whose editors commented that 3D neural networks represent a "promising model of complex neural tissue that could lead to a better understanding of the structure and function of the brain. The Technion researchers also present an advanced method for viewing the neural activity of the engineered culture using a fast microscopy system they developed."
The Israeli team said they grew the advanced culture in a clear gel that supports cellular growth and allows the cells to bind and form neural networks."By optimizing the culturing conditions we achieved cellular density and composition similar to those found in the human brain and were able to show the formation of connections between cells and of networks that maintain neural activity. To enable the study of network activity in 3D, optical tools were used: nerve cells in the cultures were genetically altered making it possible to view ongoing network activity through a fluorescence microscope.RODENTS AFFECTED BY SWEATY MEN Amazingly, results of rodent studies may be skewed if conducted by men as opposed to women, because the former exude pheremones that cause mice and rats undue stress. An international team of pain researchers led by scientists at Montreal's McGill University discovered that the gender of the experimenters has a big impact on the stress levels of rodents, which are widely used in preclinical studies. Scientists' inability to replicate research findings using mice and rats has contributed to mounting concern over the reliability of such studies.
In research published online in Nature Methods, the scientists report that the presence of male experimenters produced a stress response in mice and rats equivalent to that caused by restraining the rodents for 15 minutes in a tube or forcing them to swim for three minutes. This stress-induced reaction made mice and rats of both sexes less sensitive to pain. Female experimenters produced no such effects."Scientists whisper to each other at conferences that their rodent research subjects appear to be aware of their presence and that this might affect the results of experiments, but this has never been directly demonstrated until now," says Jeffrey Mogil, a psychology professor at McGill and senior author of the paper.The research team, which included pain experts from Pennsylvania's Haverford College and the Karolinska Institute in Sweden and a chemosensory expert from Université de Montreal, found that the effect of male experimenters on the rodents' stress levels was due to smell. This was shown by placing cotton T-shirts, worn the previous night by male or female experimenters, alongside the mice; the effects were identical to those caused by the presence of the experimenters themselves.Further experiments proved that the effects were caused by chemosignals, or pheromones, that men secrete from the armpit at higher concentrations than women do. These chemosignals signal to rodents the presence of nearby male animals. (All mammals share the same chemosignals.) These effects are not limited to pain. The researchers found that other behavioral assays sensitive to stress were affected by male but not female experimenters or T-shirts."Our findings suggest that one major reason for lack of replication of animal studies is the gender of the experimenter – a factor that's not currently stated in the methods sections of published papers," says Robert Sorge, a psychology professor at the University of Alabama, Birmingham.The good news, Mogil says, is that "the problem is easily solved by simple changes to experimental procedures. For example, since the effect of males' presence diminishes over time, the male experimenter can stay in the room with the animals before starting testing. At the very least, published papers should state the gender of the experimenter who performed the behavioral testing."

Jane Austen To Grace Britain's 10-Pound Note
The Bank of England has announced that famed novelist Jane Austen will be the next face on Britain's 10-pound note. Banknotes are redesigned fairly often there as a security measure. This spring there was also a major campaign to have better female representation on U.K. currency.
And our last word in business today puts the sense in sense in sensibility - 10 pounds worth of sense, or pence, to be precise.
The Bank of England just announced that novelist Jane Austen, the famed 18th-century novelist, will be the next face on Britain's 10-pound note.
And we should say banknotes are redesigned fairly often there as a security measure and to prevent forgeries. And this spring, there was also a major campaign to have better female representation on U.K. currency. Right now, when Britain's pay cash Renee, they, of course, see Queen Elizabeth as well as faces, including philosopher Adam Smith and Charles Darwin. And Darwin, by 2017, will be the one replaced by Jane Austen on the 10.
MONTAGNE: And David, really, what could Darwin say about that? Well, maybe, what? Survival of the fittest?
GREENE: Yeah, perfect. Perfect.
MONTAGNE: That's the business news on MORNING EDITION, from NPR News. I'm Renee Montagne.
GREENE: And I'm David Greene.

The Phantom Carriage is a silent Swedish film made by legendary actor/director Victor Sjöström. While Sjöström is known more for his acting performances later in life, namely as the protagonist in Ingmar Bergman's Wild Strawberries, he originally made his mark as a prolific and very innovative director, beginning in the silent era and spanning into early talkies. This film is considered by many to be one of his very best and is a perfect example of how Sjöström both pioneered and refined techniques that were used for decades to come.
The film uses double exposures quite extensively. While this technique was not new, for this film it was far more advanced, consisting of multiple layers and dimensions. While the techniques may seem obvious and even primitive by today's standards, they left audiences awed and mesmerized 90 years ago. Another innovation of this film is the unique structure in which it's told. This is one of the first movies to make extensive use of flashbacks, going as far as having flashbacks within flashbacks.
I will briefly cover the plot, as to not ruin the film for someone who has never seen it before.Read more ›
THE PHANTOM CARRIAGE is one of those silent movies to show people who think they don't like silent movies. I have yet to meet someone that I have shown it to who was not captivated by it. Part of that is due to the similarity of the plot to a well known English property which I won't name here but a lot of it is due to the simple but creative special effects that seem perfectly natural in keeping with the story being told. Credit should also be given to the lead performances of Victor Sjostrom and Hilda Borgstrom which seem as contemporary as anything seen today. It's easy to see why Ingmar Bergman would have been attracted to and inspired by this story of a vicious alcoholic who receives his comeuppance and an unexpected shot at redemption. The dysfunctional family theme, long a staple of Scandinavian drama, also plays well today. A surprising movie that still has the power to engage and enthrall audiences 90 years later.
The last person to die on New Year's Eve before the stroke of midnight must drive Death's chariot, collecting the souls of those who die throughout the next year. Sjostrom himself plays David, an abusive alcoholic who becomes the chariot rider's successor and is shown the harm and misery he brought to others.
THE PHANTOM CARRIAGE is an atmospheric masterpiece. Told in what was then an innovative flashback format, the film utilizes double and even multiple exposures in ways previously unseen to simulate the spectral, horse driven carriage and its doomed rider. The film is also noteworthy for some of the earliest night for night photography ever attempted in a motion picture. This remarkably moving parable of a film was a huge influence on the work of Ingmar Bergman, especially THE SEVENTH SEAL and WILD STRAWBERRIES, both from 1957.
Criterion's exceptional Blu-ray was transferred from a restored duplicate negative derived from two prints; a black and white nitrate and a color tinted nitrate. Two optional scores are included; a chamber orchestral work and an experimental, computer composition. The special features give us an absorbing commentary by historian Casper Tybjerg, a 1981 interview with Ingmar Bergman, an essay by Peter Cowie on the film's influence on Bergman, some footage of the construction of Rasunda studio where THE PHANTOM CARRIAGE was shot, and a booklet by Paul Mayersberg discussing the film's importance.
As usual, Criterion has done a beautiful job in putting this edition together, and it does ample justice to an extraordinary film that deserves wider recognition. Its haunting quality is unforgettable.

The products I ordered are well made, were well packaged and arrived next day. I could track my order and was advised to the hour when it would arrive. This service is faultless and I would definitely recommend.
Only downside was one item I wanted to buy was out of stock and I have not yet been contacted to advise that it's now in stock!
Otherwise a brilliant company with fantastic service.

MLO mainly follows the same pattern as COUNT ZERO. Several different characters are notable: Bobby Newmark, aka Count Zero, who is jacked into cyberspace. Kumiko, daughter of a Yakuza, supposedly protected in London. Sally Shears, aka Molly, who may attempt to kill or kidnap Angie Mitchell, a star of Internet simulation programs, and various other bit players. Of course there is Mona, an illegitimate human, since she exists without an ID number in the digital age. Mona is almost a street person, a nonentity, but she looks much like Angie Mitchell. Sinister persons have plans for Mona and Angie: they plot (apparently) to kidnap one and kill the other. Cyberspace cowboys, Yakuza, Londoner thugs, and weird freakish types populate the plot, with The Finn from COUNT ZERO playing a minor role in this novel as well. Gibson, as always, manages to make the various plots converge at the end.
Gibson's world is futuristic, both fantastic and somewhat scientifically plausible, dystopic and frightening. London is trapped in a time warp. Japan is shiny and ultra-modern. Cleveland is a dump. The Sprawl is forbidding, amazing, huge, and imposing. Cyberspace is where everyone wants to be. In MONA LISA OVERDRIVE, he mainly succeeds at delivering his vision and an entertaining plot. Kudos to Gibson for creating this amazing fictional universe; this is his forte. I found the novel's ending somewhat confusing and unsatisfying. Don't let me dissuade you! MONA LISA OVERDRIVE is a fine novel and a successful conclusion to The Sprawl Trilogy; however, if you're new to Gibson, start with BURNING CHROME (short stories) or NEUROMANCER.
In a dilapidated section of New Jersey, Slick Henry makes large animated robotic sculptures out of scrap metal. He owes Kid Afrika a favor, so now he has to hide the comatose body of Bobby Newmark (aka "Count Zero"). Bobby is jacked into an Aleph where he's got some secret project going on. A Cleveland girl named Cherry Chesterfield is Bobby's nurse.
Kumiko is the daughter of a Japanese Yakuza crime boss. Her father has sent her to live in London while the Yakuza war is going on. There she meets Gibson's most iconic character, Molly Millions, who's going by the name Sally Shears. Molly is being blackmailed by Lady 3Jane, so Kumiko inadvertently gets dragged into the kidnapping plot.
Mona Lisa Overdrive contains several exciting action scenes which feature kidnappings, shoot-outs, helicopter escapes, remote-controlled robot warriors, collapsing catwalks, and falling refrigerators. These are loosely connected by the continuation and conclusion of the AI plot which began in Neuromancer. I wasn't completely satisfied with the sketchy ending or the wacky reveal on the last page, but that's okay. I was mainly reading Mona Lisa Overdrive for the style, anyway.
So much of Gibson's style and success stems from the mesmerizing world he's built -- a future Earth in which national governments have been replaced by large biotech companies.Read more ›

Chinese Grand Prix: Lewis Hamilton tops opening practice
Shanghai: McLaren driver Lewis Hamilton set the fastest time in a first practice session for Formula One's Chinese Grand Prix in misty and damp conditions on Friday.
With early drivers struggling on the slippery track, the best times were not set until the top drivers were able to use slick dry weather tyres late in the session.
Sauber's Sergio Perez a career-best second in the preceding Malaysian GP set the fourth best time, just ahead of his teammate Kamui Kobayashi in fifth.
Red Bull's Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel, McLaren's Jenson Button, then Toro Rosso's Daniel Ricciardo and Jean-Eric Vergne rounded out the top 10.
A number of drivers slipped on the wet track in the early part of the session, but there were no major incidents.
Ferrari's Felipe Massa lost his grip and ran off the track, crossing a grass strip before he was able to regain control and return to the track.

FREE Registration to @ThingsExpo!
The Internet of Things is the biggest idea since the creation of the Worldwide Web more than 20 years ago.
Why? Because the "things" are not just desktops, laptops, smartphones, and tablets. The "things" come from the world of sensor-driven Big Data that is even now expanding the size of the Web beyond what we thought just a few years ago.
How big? Estimates from everyone from Gartner to the US Government foresee a 100X time increase - then a 1,000X increase - in Web traffic over the next few years. The world will need hundreds of billions of dollars of new servers, memory, storage, and data centers. The challenge to software developers will be increasing as never before.
In this @ThingsExpo Power Panel, on June 9 at our New York City studio, @ThingsExpo conference chair Roger Strukhoff will lead a discussion with panelists Mac Devine, Distinguished Engineer at IBM; Jonas Jacobi, Co-Founder & President of Kaazing; Chad Jones, Vice President, Product Strategy for LogMeIn's Xively IoT Platform; and Brendan O'Brien, Co-founder at Aria Systems on how the future of computing lies in things and how, as computing takes a much more active role in our lives, it will at the same time become much more invisible.

I wanted to gather all of my Internet of Things (IOT) blogs into a single blog (that I could later use with my University of San Francisco (USF) Big Data "MBA" course). However as I started to pull these blogs together, I realized that my IOT discussion lacked a vision; it lacked an end point towards which an organization could drive their IOT envisioning, proof of value, app dev, data engineering and data science efforts. And I think that the IOT end point is really quite simple…

A critical component of any IoT project is what to do with all the data being generated. This data needs to be captured, processed, structured, and stored in a way to facilitate different kinds of queries.

Extracting business value from Internet of Things (IoT) data doesn't happen overnight. There are several requirements that must be satisfied, including IoT device enablement, data analysis, real-time detection of complex events and automated orchestration of actions. Unfortunately, too many companies fall short in achieving their business goals by implementing incomplete solutions or not focusing on tangible use cases.

Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.

Native Plants
Q. Who is Mr. Smarty Plants?
A: There are those who suspect Wildflower Center volunteers are the culpable and capable culprits. Yet, others think staff members play some, albeit small, role. You can torture us with your plant questions, but we will never reveal the Green Guru's secret identity.
Did you know you can access the Native Plant Information Network with your web-enabled smartphone?
Ask Mr. Smarty Plants is a free service provided by the staff and volunteers at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center.

Title: Giant Thistle-Like Plant from Elgin, TX
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:I have a giant thistle like plant in my field we have been unable to identify. It looks like a milk thistle but it is short..only about a foot tall..stocky...and the flowers are giant..about 6 to 8 inches accross. There are two to three blooms on each plant. It looks and seeds just like thistle. The flowers are usually white or purple...help. Thank you.
We are sorry, that is not enough information for us to identify your plant, especially since there is always a good chance that it is non-native. The Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center, home of Mr. Smarty Plants, is committed to the growth, propagation and protection of plants native not only to North America but also to the area in which those plants are being grown; in your case, Bastrop or Travis County. However, it is more likely you are wondering if you should get rid of it. In most cases, the answer to that is YES! We have answered similar questions several times during the last few years, not to mention in the last few weeks, so apparently this is a bad year for them. We are going to refer you first to a previous Mr. Smarty Plants answer also from Central Texas, which has more links to other information, including getting rid of the darn things.
In addition to those links, here is a link to the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Office for Smith County on Thistle Control. While Smith County is in East Texas, the information is still good. Also, click on this link to take you to Google images of Texas thistles, a LOT of them. If you see a picture there that looks like your thistle, click on the picture and you will get some information on what it is. You can take that scientific name and find it either on our Native Plant Database or the Internet. Doesn't really make a whole lot of difference, the techniques are all pretty much the same.

it was very nice and quite and a neat place where we wanted to stay
This is an older, somewhat rundown property. Very overrated by Trip Advisor in our opinion. While there was not much outside noise, we think a herd of elephants had rooms above us. Fortunately, they quieted down by 10:30 or so. We would never stay there again. For a few dollars more, we could have MUCH better accommodations.
Very poor wifi
Breakfast was limited, but was hotel was good value for money

NOTES: McGahee rushed for just 51 yards
FOXBOROUGH, MASS. The familiar showdown had a new twist — Peyton Manning in a Denver Broncos uniform. It ended as it usually does with Tom Brady winning the matchup of marquee quarterbacks.
But not before Manning nearly pulled off another fourth-quarter comeback in a career filled with them.
In their 13th meeting, and first since Manning left the Indianapolis Colts, Brady directed four scoring marches of at least 80 yards and the Patriots won 31-21 on Sunday. He's 9-4 in his career against Manning.
"Nobody I'd rather have than Tom Brady," New England coach Bill Belichick said, "but Manning's a great player."
Manning had led his teams back in the fourth quarter to 36 comeback wins. And the Broncos (2-3) rallied from a 31-7 deficit with about five minutes left in the third quarter on Manning's scoring passes of 2 yards to Eric Decker and 5 yards to Brandon Stokley.
The Patriots (3-2) lost the ball on Stevan Ridley's fumble on their next possession and Manning completed a 28-yard pass to Demaryius Thomas to the Patriots 14-yard line. But two plays later, Denver's comeback hopes faded when Willis McGahee fumbled and Jermaine Cunningham recovered at the New England 11 with 3:42 remaining.
"We can build on that" ability to whittle a big deficit, Manning said. "I do think that will help us win a game at some point."
Brady downplayed his meeting with Manning.
"It's Patriots-Broncos," he said. "It was a great team win. We got some turnovers from our defence and I thought offensively capitalized at times. There were a few lulls in there, which I wish we had executed a little bit better, but for the most part it's a good day."
Brady completed 23 of 31 passes for 223 yards and one touchdown and ran for another, operating much of the game out of a no-huddle offence.
"It's not new," Denver coach John Fox said. "They've been doing this for a long, long time. They just have a good group of guys together doing it. ... Our guy (Manning) did an outstanding job today as well."
Manning was 31 of 44 for 345 yards and three touchdowns but lost a fumble on a third-quarter sack.
That led to Ridley's 8-yard run that put the Patriots ahead 31-7. Ridley led the Patriots with a career-high 151 yards rushing. They gained 251 yards on the ground, one week after rushing for 247 in a 52-28 win over the Buffalo Bills.
"It's awesome," Ridley said. "It takes a lot of pressure off Brady. And that's our leader."
The Patriots set a franchise record with 35 first downs as they kept their offence rolling one week after gaining 580 against the Bills. The Broncos sputtered after beating the Oakland Raiders 37-6. Their previous two losses were by just six points to the Atlanta Falcons and Houston Texans.
"I know they're been great teams we've lost to, which still doesn't make it any easier," Manning said. "We are working on things and building things. It doesn't happen right away."
Brady and Manning first faced each other in the third game of the 2001 season. The Patriots won 44-13 in Brady's first career start.
There were plenty of close games in subsequent regular-season matchups with six of the previous seven decided by seven points or less.
But, Manning said, "this is not a team you want to fall behind to."
The Patriots led 17-7 at halftime and 31-7 after three quarters. Brady and his runners kept slicing through the Denver defence with a balanced attack. They went ahead to stay, 14-7, midway through the second quarter on a 14-play drive (seven pass plays and seven runs) capped by Shane Vereen's 1-yard run.
Ridley had his third 100-yard rushing game of his career, all this season. Wes Welker, the NFL's leading receiver last year with 122 catches, had 13 for 104 yards.
"There were a few times where I didn't get open," he said, "but for the most part I feel like I got open a lot and was able to make some plays."
The Broncos wasted an excellent opportunity on their first series. Manning hit Thomas with a 43-yard completion to the Patriots 10-yard line, but Sterling Moore stripped the ball and recovered the fumble. The Patriots went four-and-out on the ensuing possession then the Patriots scored on their next three possessions — 84 yards to Brady's 8-yard pass to Welker, 80 yards to Vereen's touchdown and 93 yards to Stephen Gostkowski's 23-yard field goal.
Denver did tie the game 7-7 on Manning's 1-yard pass to Joel Dreessen but didn't reach the end zone again until Manning hit Decker to end a 90-yard march, cutting the lead to 31-14 with 1:08 left in the third.
But Manning couldn't bring the Broncos all the way back.
"A week ago, we put it all together," Fox said. "I would have expected us to put it all together more this week."
But Brady and his offence is a lot tougher than the Raiders.
"You have to be balanced and I think we were doing a very good job when we're calling the runs," Brady said.
