...were also given a moment to share their memories of the fallen star. The spontaneous speeches were some of the most poignant. One in particular was delivered by David Rothenberg, a burn victim whom Jackson took care of for years after 90% of his body was scorched in a childhood fire. "He was very scarred over all of his body," says a guest. "He spoke about Michael and how he cared for [Rothenberg] for so long without asking for anything in return. It was very moving."

...Potter fans searching for a close adaptation of the sixth book should steer clear of “Half-Blood Prince.” Kloves has exercised more artistic freedom than ever in this film, cutting memorable storylines (including trips through the pensieve to Voldemort’s tragic childhood and family history), and introducing entirely new scenes (such as when the Death Eaters attack the Weasleys’ home). But overall, Kloves’ changes contribute to a much more compact film; “Deathly Hallows” is the first in the series to progress...
...expect, until now no one had studied teens' white matter, which works along with gray matter to produce decisions. The key part of white matter is called myelin, a fatty substance that coats the individual neural strands, or axons, that make up white matter. Myelination of axons begins during childhood and is completed at the end of adolescence, around the mid-20s. Myelination in the frontal lobe - the brain region responsible for decision-making - happens last, and it was in this region that the brains of risk-seeking teens in the study showed greater development compared with the frontal lobes...

...reality, in advertising, in its characters' lives and in 1963 America. But Weiner steers clear of more obvious period cues, opting for obscure markers like Pepsi's introduction of Patio Diet Cola. The episodes are filled with the ghosts of a dirtier, more raw America, from Don's Depression childhood to a bartender who remembers New Mexico when it was a territory. Even the sets have memory; the prop masters take care to mix in furnishings from the '40s and '50s because no one lives in a home with all-new period...
