'Safe'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Poor Topic!Cindy. Take your mind to a happy place. Put on "Go Fish" or something.
If you had an LJ, you'd know the source of my insanity was allegedly White, and Square, and Looked like a Tooth, but it wasn't a Tooth, and He Didn't Know What it Was, so He Swallowed It.
Congrats on getting into the study, tommyrot! I hope everything goes spectiacularly well.
I kind of like that dress, though it would look better against a less busy background. And it wouldn't look good on me, so, I'm not sure what my point is. But I think there are people who could wear it in certain settings and look great.
Hurray for the prospect of cheap solar power! How awesome would that be?

You know, despite all that, it was the Found on the Toilet Seat that really screamed 3-yr old to me. Poor Cindy.
Also, only 65 posts to go! Shall we turn this sucker over?

Yes, and from a six year old "genius".

And it was the ew this grosses me out the most rim. The seat was up.
Speak only in musical quotes.
Oh, Cindy. How scary.
I'm sorry, but the story did make me giggle quite a bit, in a "oh no, how terrible" sort of way.
This is my verse, hello.
(That was to Aimee)
Thanks, Sean.
Robot hand controlled by human thoughts:
The robotic hand mimics the movements of a person's real hand, based on real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) of their brain activity. It marks another landmark in the advance towards prosthetics and computers that can be operating by thought alone.
The system was developed by Yukiyasu Kamitani and colleagues from the ATR Computational Neuroscience Laboratories in Kyoto, and researchers from the Honda Research Institute in Saitama.
Subjects lay inside an MRI scanner and were asked to make "rock, paper, scissor" shapes with their right hand. As they did this, the MRI scanner recorded brain activity during the formation of each shape and fed this data to a connected computer. After a short training period, the computer was able to recognise the brain activity associated with each shape and command the robotic appendage do the same.
Naturally, I want one.
