Researchers report a game-changing advance in stem cell science: the creation of long-term, self-renewing, primitive neural precursor cells from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) that can be directed to become many types of neuron without increased risk of tumor formation.

#2. People are reconsidering cultural greetings. -- The French are well known for offering la bise, a quick peck on each cheek, as a way of saying hello and good-bye. But with the fear of transmitting the H1N1 virus, some schools and companies—and even the health ministry's swine-flu hotline—recommend avoiding this practice.

Say Hello to H.R. 875: Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009

Over the last century, H20 has become so convenient we take it for granted. That's about to change

The drop in ocean pH driven by rising CO 2 levels has been found to alter fish behavior. A new study in Nature Climate Change uncovers the mechanism by which acidification affects developing fish brains.

Put Cameras on a Peregrine Falcon and a Goshawk. Prepare to be Amazed. These are two of the fastest maneuvering birds in the world. Rarely do we get to see them in action, at least to this extent. But, some have decided to take it a step further by attaching cameras on the back of these magnificent creatures. And what was captured on camera for the first time ever, was proof once again, that nature in its glory is a sight to behold. With maneuvers that would make the Blue Angles envious, these animals fly through the air with grace and confidence. Speeds of nearly 200mph, dives and turns that produce 10Gs+, maneuvering through dense forests at high speed only inches from the ground, and only a fraction of a second from impact. Sound like a Hollywood chase scene? Although, it has become the inspiration for many scenes in Hollywood, unlike Hollywood, this is real. These are the abilities of two of the fastest maneuvering birds in the world, and two of the most fierce birds of prey. The Peregrine Falcon and the Goshawk. The Peregrine Falcon has been clocked going 250mph (400 km/h) in low altitudes and 390 mph (625 km/h) in high altitudes, during which they track their prey. During flight, the change in direction from a 150 mph dive, then to a sudden lift, would make a human lose consciousness, and thats only at its playful speed of 150 mph! They can dive at unfathomable speeds, and suddenly lift only inches from the ground. Witnessing it in person, you would describe these amazing dives as a bullet. Like an aircraft designers dream, once their wings tuck, they become an aeronautical phenomenon. The split-second maneuvering of the Goshawk during flight is reminiscent of the Speeders in Star Wars. However, maneuvering through the dense forests as these birds do, is something that no computer or human invention has been able to duplicate fully. Their precision and accuracy is flawless. The split-second turns. The speed. It almost makes you dizzy to watch, even in slow motion. How do they do it? To watch them in flight puts me at a loss for words to be able to fully describe what I am seeing. Other than a physicist, there is no way to emphasize or grasp whats involved, or how it is possible. You just have to watch for yourself to be able to appreciate it. And even then, you are still left to wonder.
