2.) Another positive result if stem-cell research for spinal-cord injuries:
"These findings indicate that intrinsic neuronal mechanisms readily overcome the barriers created by a spinal cord injury to extend many axons over very long distances, and that these capabilities persist even in neurons reprogrammed from very aged human cells."3.) President Obama talks with Thomas Friedman on foreign policy:
“Our politics are dysfunctional,” said the president, and we should heed the terrible divisions in the Middle East as a “warning to us: societies don’t work if political factions take maximalist positions. And the more diverse the country is, the less it can afford to take maximalist positions.”4.) Is average over? Overrated? Scott Beaulier thinks so:
"The new normal will be a more jobless normal, but here's the silver lining: new technologies, such as driver-less cars, promise to free up time and bring about significant cost savings. In education, for example, students everywhere will have access to classes taught by some of the best teachers on the planet at a fraction of today's cost. Education in 50 years will look a lot like the journalism business today; more information than ever will be produced by far less people, and the "go-to" sources of opinion or expertise--the stars of the industry--will be doing remarkably well. The fortunes for the rest of Americans, meanwhile, seem sure to stagnate."5.) "Why your brand-new plane doesn't have a seat-back tv"
