...Joey Ansah). While a police posse is chasing Bourne, he's hopscotching across rooftops, wrapping a sheet around his hand to vault over a wall with shards of glass on it, and somehow keeping track of the elusive Nicky in a big, unfamiliar city. Maybe our super-spy's brain, earlier rewired by The Company, has been accessorized with a Google Earth chip implant...
...There is a very large gap between recognizing how addiction looks on a brain scan and developing therapies that are effective enough to safely abolish addictive behavior. Once a safe and effective candidate drug is discovered, a minimum of five years is needed before the Food and Drug Administration can deem it safe to administer to millions of addicts. We are at least a decade away from even starting such trials. Addiction is a side effect of the positive evolutionary pressures to respond to pleasurable stimuli by seeking repeat stimulation. Alcoholics Anonymous is one form of therapy that...

"Typically, if two seizures have occurred close together, there is an up to 80% likelihood that there will be a third, and an almost 100% likelihood that medication will be started." In Roberts' case, a careful look at the EEG, a read-out of his brain wave activity, could help; any abnormalities in the EEG increase the likelihood of another seizure, says French, and would argue for starting drug treatment. There are more than 20 anti-seizure medications from which Roberts and his physicians can now chose; some work to corral the hyperactivity in one area...
