text: Michele Bachmann Tells Tale of a Faraway Land Where All Ladies Love Mitt RomneyCassie Murdoch5/06/12 8:00pmFiled to: michele bachmannMitt RomneyBarack ObamaFace The NationBob SchiefferPoliticsCampaign2012War on WomenWomenPolltweetFbGettypic75EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalinkFor a time after she withdrew from the presidential race, our favorite quote-generating maniac Michele Bachmann fell silent. It was a dark time for America, but thankfully she has emerged from the shadows and is once again letting her special brand of perma-smiled sun shine across this great land. She's making the rounds in support of the Great White Republican Hope, Mittens Romney, and boy has she come out swinging. Today she appeared on Face the Nation and declared that not only are women totally in love with Mitt Romney, they've always been huge fans of the GOP. All aboard! Next stop: Delusionville.AdvertisementBob Schieffer, who during this interview proved himself to be the most patient man ever created, started things off by asking why MittBott3000 is not reaching women. But, of course, we all know that's not really the case, according to MickeyB:The myth is there is a Republican war on women. There's not a Republican war on women. That's coming from the Obama reelection team.Oh, it is? Wow, that is so smart of them to somehow get inside the Republican party and force them to adopt all kinds of positions which are incredibly anti-woman. Well played, Obama campaign Lie Machine.AdvertisementBob Schieffer then had the audacity to point out that the myth must be working because all the polls show Romney is way behind with women. But Michele knows it's silly to look at current polls when you can look backwards to a history that never even existed:If you look at the 2010 election, women went Republican. They didn't go Democrat, and they will this time as well, because women are more concerned about the economy and jobs for themselves, for their husband, for their children, and that's not happened because Obama's broken his promises.Oookay, but if you look at the 2010 election data, the split was actually totally even. Republicans and Democrats both captured 49 percent of the lady vote. That's why it's extra painful when later in the interview she doubles down and says of the 2010 vote, "Women overwhelmingly went Republican and threw out a woman speaker." Oy.Here's the thing though, guys, it totally doesn't even matter what happened in the past because women have brains and can do whatever they want in the future, according to Bachmann:SponsoredWomen aren't stupid. Women are very capable. They're intelligent. They're competent, and women want to know we're going to have jobs created.OMG, that is seriously the NICEST thing anyone has ever said about me. Thanks, Meesh; you totally get us. And it turns out she gained this insight at the gas station in Anoka, Minnesota. How positively folksy. You see while she was there pumping gas (did she get a new job?), all women could talk about was how doggone expensive car juice is these days, which taught Michele a big lesson about ladyfolk:AdvertisementThey deal with price of gas. They deal with price of groceries, and they know if they've got a job or not.That's what comes from being so intelligent and competent: we know whether we are employed! (I am! Do I get a prize?) You know what else comes from having brains and caring about the economy? Knowing that Mitt Romney will be about as good for our economy as chewing gravel is for your teeth.Anyway, Schieffer, who at this point must have been on the verge of an aneurysm from holding in all of his frustration with her "logic," points out YET AGAIN that whatever she may think about women and how they operate, the polls don't show that women are falling in behind Romney. But do you think that breaks the shiny marble façade of Michele's face? It does not, because according to Michele, polls are just "a snapshot" and "another myth of the campaign trail." Yowza. It truly takes a special someone to deploy the word myth in an effort to wipe away approximately one gazillion statistically sound polls that have determined that women have no plans to vote for Mitt Romney en masse. Kudos to you, Michele on your extremely competent and capable deployment of logic here—you really do a service to us women. Speaking of women, let's get back to what they really want, in Michele's twisted brain, at least. They want competence, and you can have one guess as to where she thinks they'll find that:AdvertisementWith all due respect to the president, he's not competent to deal with the economy. Mitt Romney is competent in spades.If you believe that—which is hard since we all remember that she spent the first few months of this year trying to convince us that Romney was the most incompetent creature on Earth—you might also be interested in the nonsensical rant she delivers against Obamacare at the end of the interview. Otherwise, this concludes today's trip to Michele Bachmann's Wonderful World of Lies. Don't forget to take off your safety belts as you exit the ride, and be sure to grab a brochure for Romney's Zany House of Cards on your way out the door.Bachmann: "Women want competence" [CBS] Bachmann Rewrites History, Claims Women 'Overwhelmingly' Voted GOP in 2010 [Think Progress]Reply75 repliesLeave a reply

Chapter 14: Earth's Oceans
Phytoplankton bloom in spring when sunlight hits the water. The green color is from chlorophyll, the pigment needed for photosynthesis. The blue color is from the reflective plating around coccolithophores, a type of phytoplankton. The Chatham Rise is an underwater plateau that causes deep water to rise, bringing up nutrients. The feature is located where cold Antarctic currents meet warmer, subtropical water. The mixing of water and the nutrients foster large phytoplankton blooms.
Phytoplankton are the base of the marine food web and so they are food to nearly all other marine organisms. By using carbon dioxide for photosynthesis, phytoplankton help to reduce the buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

HOUSTON -- Derek Jeter could not have been any more matter of fact about his last Opening Day.
"I can't tell you what tomorrow will be like until we get to tomorrow," Jeter, 39, said. "But I will assume it will be like every other Opening Day. I will try to treat it like every other Opening Day. Every Opening Day is special when you have butterflies and you have nerves. I think that is a good thing. I don't foresee this being any different."
Jeter missed Opening Day in 2013 after he failed to fully recover from his broken ankle. He eventually said that Tuesday "probably" will be different than other first games since this will be his last.
Jeter finished off his final spring feeling satisfied that he had a good time.
"It was a fun spring for me in terms of getting back on the field and enjoying it," Jeter said.
Jeter has said a number of times that he feels fully healthy going into 2014.

Thompson, NW, McAlinden, MG, Breslin, E, Crone, MD, Kernohan, George and Beverland, DE (2001) Periprosthetic tibial fractures after cementless low contact stress total knee arthroplasty. Journal of Arthroplasty, 16 (8). pp. 984-990. [Journal article]
Full text not available from this repository.
Periprosthetic fractures are a recognized complication of total knee arthroplasty. Fractures may occur intraoperatively or postoperatively, and risk factors have been identified that may predispose an individual to Such a Complication. We report 7 cases of periprosthetic tibial fractures after low contact stress total knee arthroplasty, a complication encountered by the senior author (D.E.B.) only after a change in practice from a cemented implant to a cementless one. In light of this previously unreported complication in our unit, we attempted to identify common features within this group of patients that may have contributed to fracture occurrence. Statistical analysis revealed a highly significant (P < .005) risk of periprosthetic tibial fracture in patients with a preoperative neutral or valgus knee. Age, gender, and diagnosis did not appear to increase the risk of fracture significantly. All patients displayed evidence of reduced bone mineral density in the lumbar spine any femoral neck regions on dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry scanning. Patients with a preoperative neutral or valgus knee and local evidence of osteopenia represent a high-risk group, in whom particular care in alignment should be taken. In this group, it may be preferable to have the tibial component inserted with cement fixation.

Exploration of Brunswik Learning Environment for Instruction of Basic Sampling Concepts.
Packard, Abbot L.; And Others
This paper uses the Brunwik theory of probabilistic functionalism as the backdrop for discussion of interrelationships between the individual learner and the design of computer-assisted instruction (CAI). This Brunswik learning model depicts the acquisition of knowledge as governed by the proximity of various cues and distractions. It is also closely related to research on individual cognitive styles. A study was conducted which investigated the effect of different types of delivery of computerized instruction on 102 Virginia Tech graduate students with differing cognitive abilities. Types of presentations used included text only, text with static graphics, and text with animated graphics. Twenty-four questions were given as a pretest, a posttest, and a recall test. Results indicated that individuals did have different results when they were assigned to different presentation methods, although neither cognitive measure nor presentation method could reliably predict results for all individuals or create an artificially intelligent computer program. Further research should study a full model supporting a semester-long class using resources from the entire department. (Contains 7 figures and 43 references.) (BEW)

Chimpanzees play and develop much the same way as human children, according to new research. The work, to be published in the Nov. 16 issue of the online journal PLoS ONE, can shed light on the role of human play behavior, said study authors Elisabetta Palagi and Giada Cordoni of the University of Pisa in Italy. The research was the first to compare the development of play behavior in chimpanzees with that of humans in a standardized way, Pelagi said. The researchers found that chimpanzee solitary play peaks in infancy, and the time spent in social play is about the same between infants and juveniles. But the type of social play changed quite a bit as the animals grew up, in terms of measures like complexity and playmate choice, Pelagi and Cordoni said. Assessing these behaviors in light of previous studies in humans, they found that both species show significant development in play behavior from infancy to juvenility, and both consistently use playful facial expressions to communicate and build social networks. The researchers also analyzed playmate choice and found that both humans and chimps prefer peers for play partners. |

The Hudson Group is an East Rutherford, New Jersey, based retailer which operates a chain of newsstands, bookstores, fast food restaurants, and other retail stores chiefly at airports in the United States, with a smaller presence in U.S. train stations and Canadian airports. The company's holdings include Hudson News, the world's largest operator of airport newsstands.[1] Hudson Group, the largest duty-paid travel retailer in North America, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Dufry AG, Switzerland.
In 1918 the Cohen family began a newspaper distribution company in Bayonne, New Jersey, which expanded to magazine distribution under the name Hudson News and grew to become the largest magazine wholesale distribution agency in the United States.
In 1987, Mario DiDomizio and a staff of fewer than 100 employees opened the first branded Hudson News store in LaGuardia Airport. Now with more than 700 locations throughout the United States,[2] Hudson News is North America's largest airport newsstand retailer.[1]
This group was renamed Hudson Group Retail Specialists in 1998, reflecting the expansion from newsstands into cafés, bookstores and speciality retail. The retail portfolio has since expanded to include international luxury brands such as Armani, Bulgari, and Coach. Its franchised café brands include Dunkin Donuts and Euro Café.
In March, 2008, Boston, Massachusetts-based private equity firm Advent International acquired a majority interest in Hudson Group. Later that year, Hudson became a wholly owned subsidiary of another Advent holding, Dufry AG of Basel, Switzerland, one of the largest operators of duty-free stores in the world.[3] Its new logo reflected this change: Hudson Group, a Dufry company.
In 2011, Hudson Group was given responsibility for Dufry's duty-free operations in North America, and in 2013 it debuted the new "Hudson" travel essentials concept. Dufry operates branded Hudson News stores in 14 other countries around the world.
Presently Hudson Group employs 7,000 people and operates over 700 retail units and duty-free shops in 70 airports and transportation terminals in the United States and Canada.
Reflecting its Northern New Jersey/New York City roots, the company also operates outlets in New York Penn Station, Newark Penn Station, Grand Central Terminal, Journal Square PATH station, World Trade Center PATH station, 33rd Street PATH station, Hoboken PATH station and Hoboken Terminal, and the Port Authority Bus Terminal. The Company also operates the United Nations Gift Centre inside United Nations Headquarters (not to be confused with the UN's own bookstore, which sells comparatively fewer novelty items). Hudson Group also operates retail outlets in Washington Union Station and the Ogilvie Transportation Center in Chicago.

But since the deal would give Ladbroke 30 per cent of the market, the off-course betting always favoured a monopolies referral. When this duly happened Mr George still fancied his chances, believing that the agreement to dispose of 133 betting shops to the Tote would satisfy the "quarter mile rule" - the notion that no punter could be bothered to walk more than 440 yards to find another bookie.
But the times and the odds moved badly against him. The last time the MMC investigated the bookmaking business, when Mecca bid for William Hill in 1989, it concluded that it was a series of local markets. Nine years on it has swapped horses and decided that changes in technology have made it a national market, meaning that to reduce the big three to the big two is a non-starter. Mr George now has to conduct a fire sale of Coral in a falling market, knowing that the most obvious bidders are already ruled out. That must reduce his chances of recouping his original stake and hanging onto his job.
The Ladbroke chief executive must be looking enviously at Ed Wallis of PowerGen. He also took a punt - paying pounds 1.9bn for a regional electricity company in advance of regulatory clearance. Ed's bet looks to have paid off, even if he is parting company with more power stations than planned.
Sadly, neither decision casts much light on Mr Mandelson's attitude towards mergers, since he is in favour of handing over all decision-making powers in this area to an independent competition authority.

Hiring an experienced SEO company in Kansas City is a great way to build an online presence for your small business and effectively market your services to potential customers. Still, it can be difficult to find a kansas city seo company that's reliable and knowledgeable enough to get the job done correctly. Here are some essential questions you should ask any SEO company before you hire them to make sure they're a good fit for your business needs.
Can you show me examples of your work?
Forget about references--real-life examples of a company's work will show you far more about their ability to market your business. Beware of any company that can't provide you with several examples of recent work or a thorough online portfolio. If you're wondering How to select the right SEO services for your small business, look for a variety of work examples or a varied and impressive portfolio first and foremost.
Do you focus on quality link-building?
Although most people focus on the important of keywords and keyword phrases to enhance search engine optimization on their site, don't forget about link-building for your small business. Recent changes in Google's search engine algorithms have made link-building more important than ever if you want to achieve a high search engine ranking. Ask any SEO company you're considering hiring how they plan on incorporating quality links into your website. With link-building, quality is much more important than quantity, and a good SEO company will focus on building links to government and academic sites that are relevant to your business.
What traffic increase can I expect to see?
It's important to ask any SEO company what traffic volume increase you can expect to see over time if you use their services. An experienced, reputable company will be able to give you concrete numbers--traffic increases of between 40-100% over 3-4 months are reasonable figures. If a company quotes you lower figures, their services probably aren't worth your time and money. If they quote you higher numbers, you may be disappointed if they fail to live up to expectations. In any case, hire SEO services like this company that can make you realistic promises and live up to them.
How much are your fees?
In the SEO world, charges and fees can vary dramatically. If you're charged too much, you'll never be able to afford services over the long term. If you're charged too little, you may not see the results you're hoping for. Try to find affordable SEO providers that have a great reputation and fit within your budget.
The right SEO company can dramatically increase the success of your business. Do your homework, shop around and don't be afraid to ask lots of questions when you're hiring an SEO provider.

Pulp Ink is the bizarre, chaotic side of crime fiction. From an ass-kicking surfer on acid to an idiot savant hitboy, these tales are dark, funny, action-packed and told with all the gleeful insanity of a Tarantino flick.
You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll roll into the fetal position and beg for mercy.
So sit back. Pour yourself a cup of joe, crack a beer, tie off – whatever you need to get comfortable – and get ready for a dose after dose of pulp action.

This post is part of our special coverage Syria Protests 2011.
In March 2011, when Syrians started taking to the streets to demand freedom and justice, it was hard to imagine that a year later the regime would have killed thousands of people and tortured and arrested countless others. The city of Homs has been besieged since the beginning of February and suffers an unprecedented crackdown against its entire population, with a death toll of 100 every day.
While international powers have not agreed on the need to pressure the Assad regime, global citizens solidarity with Syrians has been increasing and it will likely garner more support now that we are reaching the anniversary of the Syrian revolution.
An initiative called Global March for Syria aims to take people from all over the world to the streets on March 15, 16 and 17 in support of the Syrian people's struggle. The campaign is explained in a video called "Against a Dictator" that has been widely shared online:
Marches for Syria are already planned in 16 cities, and the list keeps growing every day. Activists have created a Facebook event with information on the different marches, where they encourage citizens worldwide to stand with Syria against oppression:
One year since the Syrian revolution began. One year of violence against peaceful protesters and innocent civilians. One year of bloodshed. And one year of a brave stance against great evil, but the Syrian people have vowed to never stop until the fall of the regime, until they gain freedom and dignity. On March 15-17, 2012 let's stand with Syria against oppression and take a moment to remember the thousands of lives sacrificed since March 15, 2011.
The list of marches (please add yours to the Facebook event and as a comment to this post) are as follows:
- Toronto, Canada
- Washington DC, USA
- Ottawa, Canada
- Calgary, Canada
- Montreal – Canada
- Chicago, Illinois, US
- London, UK
- Geneva, Switzerland
- Seine, France,
- Paris, France,

Portland Zine Symposium - Aug 2006
Portland Zine Symposium was awesome as usual.
That weekend was so much fun. We drank a lot of Trippers and David's crazy cardboard castle tea. Can't wait for next year.
Ayumi is such a pro at these things. She shows up with a shoe box and unpacks a wonderful world. Plus she's like the sweetest tabler I've ever met.

According to Googles translation site, La Folie is French for madness. Visitors to La Folie may be quite surprised at this translation as this location is one of the most romantic restaurants in San Francisco. Nevertheless, there must be a reason that La Folie has a name like this and it seems to be in reference to the meals served there. The meals are crazy good, insanely delicious and will leave you feeling like you have gone mad once you have cleared your plate.
Okay, with all jokes and the odd name aside, La Folie truly is one of the best restaurants in San Francisco. Completely worthy of all the great praise that they receive, the food, service and ambiance are simply flawless. From appetizers like their Triple T Ranch Tempura Duck Egg to exquisite desserts like Cr?me Fraiche Cr?me Brulee Torte, you would have to be out of your mind to not eat there.

Li Na withdraws from Rogers Cup; Bouchard moves up

Related Stories
China's Li Na, the world's No. 2 player, has pulled out of the Rogers Cup and the U.S Open because of a bad knee.
Her injury allows Canada's Eugenie Bouchard to move up one spot to the fifth seed in the main draw of the tournament that gets underway Monday in Montreal.
Li, the Australian Open champion, says she will be out of action until the fall.
"Since March, I have been struggling with my knee and it is just not where I need it to be in order to play at the highest level," Li said in a statement issued through the tournament on Thursday.
"My medical team has advised me that I need to take some time off to rest my knee so it heals. I look forward to getting back on the court this fall in Wuhan and Beijing."
Li had played in the last four Rogers Cups, reaching the final in Montreal in 2012 where she lost to Petra Kvitova of the Czech Republic.
Yvonne Meusburger of Austria will also miss the Rogers Cup, the tournament announced on Thursday.
That means Czech player Barbora Zahlavova Strycova and Alison Riske of the United States will enter the main draw.
Aside from Bouchard, fellow Montrealer Aleksandra Wozniak, ranked 101st in the world, is also in the main draw at the Rogers Cup.
Several other Canadians will try to make the main slate in qualifying that gets underway on Saturday.
They include Gabriela Dabrowski (Ottawa), Heidi El Tabakh (Toronto), Carol Zhao (Richmond Hill, Ont.), Francoise Abanda (Montreal) and Stephane Dubois (Laval, Que.).

Late this past week, Sports Illustrated published an article written by Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby. Crosby opens up about his early season struggles last year, "just playing", team identity, offseason workouts, and not resting on his laurels.
If this were any other human, it would be a fascinating read. Instead, it's Sidney Crosby and it's so boring that I zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
Cover via @WashCaps
Tuesday morning, the Washington Capitals released the latest cover of Sports Illustrated (at least for this region).
It features Washington Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin and Baltimore Orioles center fielder Adam Jones.
Photo of the photo via Brandon Oland
Washington Capitals captain and current whipping boy Alex Ovechkin is featured in the newest issue of Sports Illustrated Magazine. The SI Olympic Preview chooses Alex's Team Russia to win the silver medal in Sochi, which is made more appropriate by Ovi's new silver fox status. Dude has gone gray.

ST. PAUL, Minn.—Minnesota legislative leaders from both parties blamed each other Friday for a lack of progress on overhauling the state's sex offender treatment program.
A federal judge has pressed lawmakers to make changes in the program, which critics say is unconstitutional because offenders are rarely released. Judge Donovan Frank called the program "clearly broken."
If lawmakers fail to act, a remedy could come from the court.
But lawmakers said no talks on the subject have occurred in about a month. And Gov. Mark Dayton said on Thursday that he believed a legislative solution was more likely to come next year, not this one.

For the first time in memory, if not ever, a highly respected mainstream columnist is calling on the United States to cut aid to Israel.
Writing in the Washington Post, Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter and columnist Walter Pincus, says, "it is time to examine the funding the United States provides to Israel".
Aid to Israel is virtually the only programme - domestic or foreign - that is exempt from every budget-cutting proposal pending in Congress. No matter that our own military is facing major cuts along with Medicare, cancer research and hundreds of other programmes, Israel's friends in Congress in both parties make sure that aid to Israel is protected at current levels.
Back when I was a congressional staffer, I was part of the process by which aid to Israel was secured. Members of the respective appropriations committees sent "wish lists" to the chair of their committee detailing which programmes they each wanted funded and by what amounts. Each letter reflected the particular interest of a particular congressman or senator and of his own district or state.
There was always one exception: aid to Israel, which apparently is a local issue for every legislator. The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) would provide the list of Israel's aid requirements for the coming year, and with few if any exceptions, every letter would include the AIPAC language. Not a punctuation mark would be changed.
At the end of the process, the AIPAC wish list would become law of the land. (Woe to any member of Congress who dared to resist the AIPAC juggernaut.)
That is how it has been for decades and not even the current economic crisis is likely to change it. On this issue, Congress is unmovable and will remain so as long as its members rely so heavily on campaign contributions (PAC or individual) delivered by the AIPAC.
In his column, Pincus describes just how absurd the Israel exemption is and that the aid to Israel package even includes an escalator clause, enshrined in law, to ensure that it can only go up, not down.
Look for a minute at the bizarre formula that has become an element of US-Israel military aid, the so-called qualitative military edge (QME). Enshrined in congressional legislation, it requires certification that any proposed arms sale to any other country in the Middle East "will not adversely affect Israel's qualitative military edge over military threats to Israel".
In 2009 meetings with defense officials in Israel, Under Secretary of State Ellen Tauscher "reiterated the United States' strong commitment" to the formula and "expressed appreciation" for Israel's willingness to work with newly created "QME working groups", according to a cable of her meetings that was released by WikiLeaks.
Lobby as a 'night flower'
The formula has an obvious problem. Because some neighbouring countries, such as Saudi Arabia and Egypt, are US allies but also considered threats by Israel, arms provided to them automatically mean that better weapons must go to Israel. The result is a US-generated arms race.
For example, the threat to both countries from Iran led the Saudis in 2010 to begin negotiations to purchase advanced F-15 fighters. In turn, Israel - using $2.75bn in American military assistance - has been allowed to buy 20 of the new F-35 fifth-generation stealth fighters being developed by the United States and eight other nations.
Read the full article to get the benefit of Pincus' research on all the unique features of the Israel aid package - including the fact that while we are increasing aid to Israel, Israel itself is cutting its military budget.
Something is terribly wrong here, most notably the fact that members of Congress from both parties are afraid to talk about it. After all, what would their constituents (not their donors) think about increasing foreign aid to Israel while we are cutting aid to education and health programmes here?
Until Pincus wrote this column, there was no reason to think Congress would ever reconsider its priorities. Legislators didn't publicise the inconsistency in their budget priorities and no one, other than AIPAC, was paying much attention.
That may have been changed by an intrepid reporter, writing in the staunchly pro-Netanyahu Washington Post, who also happens to be Jewish - immunising him from the "anti-Semitism" charge hurled at anyone who questions the US policy toward Israel.
Maybe, just maybe, progressives (and maybe even conservatives) will now demand that their legislators tell them just why they apply the sledgehammer to programmes that affect impoverished Americans while falling all over themselves to continue giving billions to a prosperous Israel.
In 1982, Steve Rosen (an AIPAC lobbyist subsequently indicted for espionage although the case was dropped), sent me the following memo. (I was employed by AIPAC at the time.) It read:
A lobby is a night flower.
It thrives in the dark.
And withers in the daylight.
Thanks to Walter Pincus and the Washington Post for providing that daylight.

So sorry this had to happen to your mom. I see more of that than I like when people are too lazy to work and just steal. They announced on the radio here in ND yesterday there is a new scam out that people are having other load money onto debit cards somehow and are telling them that they will protect it and then they take the money. was an old man in Bismarck who had $17,000.00 stolen like this just lately.

Supporting Organizations
NPT can facilitate a Type 1 Supporting Organization, which offers the same tax advantage as a donor-advised fund. Supporting Organizations are a popular choice for philanthropists who desire more control over grantmaking and investments than a donor-advised fund, but less expense and administrative burden than a private foundation.
Many supporting organizations are created with a specific issue-area in mind. To support those goals, NPT's expert staff can execute specialized grants, including research grants with benchmarks for funding, endowed chairs at universities and other institutions, or naming rights to a building.
For a look at what NPT can help donors achieve, you can visit two of the Supporting Organizations that we administer:

Looking beyond the classical "wiring-diagram" description of the organization of cortical cells into circuits, this book focuses on dynamic aspects of cerebral cortical physiology, both at the single-neuron and network levels. Recent years have seen a remarkable expansion of knowledge about the basic cellular physiology and molecular biology of cortical nerve cells—their membrane properties, their synaptic characteristics, their functional connectivity, their development, and the mechanisms of their response to injury. This book includes contributions by many of the neurobiologists and neurolo ... More
