Face transplant
Face transplant
06/02/2004 12:10 PMResearchers at the University of Louisville are seeking permission
from a bioethics panel to perform the first-ever face transplant.
According to a CNN article, "the operation could offer new hope for
those who suffer severe burns, cancer or gunshot wounds. The surgery
will attach facial tissue and blood vessels from a cadaver to a new
patient."
New
Scientist broke the news last week, reporting that "the team has
been using the faces of bodies donated for medical research to
practise the groundbreaking operation and the results suggest that a
transplanted face will not be recognisable as either the donor or the
recipient - in effect creating a third face." As a result, the
University of Louisville was swamped with inquiries, resulting in the
release of an
FAQ on the status of the face transplant program. Apparently,
they're not seeking volunteers quite yet.

a series of wholly predictable events which saw the

against Hyde's protestations and duly sent him packing to cinema.

12/22/2003 03:04 PM Water birth is an
alternative to standard hospital labor where the woman gives birth in
a pool of water. Many hospitals/birth centers now offer the option of
a water birth, or the mother-to-be can choose from a
wide variety of
birthing pools for labor at home,
usually assisted by a
midwife/nurse with experience
in waterbirth. There are
many benefits of a
gentle introduction to the world by being born in water, and the
testimonials make
it sound like a great option. Note: some links may be NSFW. [more

03/22/2005 04:59 PMMark Frauenfelder:
Chris Null has written a great article about the early history of
portable PCs for Mobile PC magazine.
Inspired by the IBM 5100 and Xerox's Notetaker -- a 48-pound
machine with a keyboard that folded over the display -- Osborne's
eponymous computer was cobbled together from the cheapest parts he
could find. The Osborne 1 hit the market at $1,795, with dual floppy
drives and a 5-inch CRT. Flip the keyboard over the front, latch it
on, and your 24.5-pound computer was ready to go wherever you needed
it. Osborne had amazing success with the product, but it was fatally
crushed by the birth of Compaq in 1983, which copied the Osborne
carefully while adding one killer feature: IBM
compatibility.
Link
UPDATE: Stefan says: "I actually worked on
an Osborne in the early '80s. The college SF club
had one. We used it to lay out the schedule and generate individually
numbered tickets for our SF convention. I recall using the included
BASIC to create a program that would generate a Superbowl betting
grid.
"One of the big selling points for the Osborne was the software.
The
company pioneered the concept of bundling. In addition to the CP/M
operating system, you got WordStar, a spreadsheet, a flat-file
database
program and so on. It even had a nice app for reading and writing
PC-format disks.
"The computer itself was, frankly, a piece of shit. The monitor was
52
columns wide; when your typing reached the end of a line the display
shifted left. It was terribly susceptible to static shock. You learned
to save your work every few minutes in dry weather, because resets and
lockups were a regular occurrence."

The birth of a [sign] language

Experts
Study New Sign Language System A new system of sign
language developed by deaf children in Nicaragua may hold clues about
the evolution of languages. When the country's first school for the
deaf was established in 1977, children were not taught sign language
but developed a system of signs to communicate.
Childhood learning may determine linguistic rules ...They
found that older students used hand signals resembling the gestures
employed by hearing people, mimicking the entire event physically. But
younger pupils - who had interacted with other deaf children from an
early age - used a more complex series of signs. They split the scene
into component parts and arranged these sequentially to convey the
incident. The constructions resemble the way words and sentences are
built in verbal languages, using segments structured in a linear
fashion. This indicates that way the younger children learnt the sign
language helped reshape it according to these linguistic
rules. ...............
