...Next I looked for vacations. Selecting every shot from a given trip, I chose ?Place on Map...? then typed in my trip location. It labeled the pictures, and placed a virtual pushpin on a world map. I can click various pins to get slideshows of my trips. That?s really all the feature does at present - you can?t click on a pin to print or e-mail all of those shots - but it?s fun and hopefully the beginning of something better...
...Photoshop Elements software I tested was a beta, and I noticed some sluggishness, especially when I loaded up the main library of 10,335 shots. I wish I could have done more with the Map and Calendar views, and tagging everything was a bit of a drag, although, one would hope, a one-time drag. Very soon cameras will have built-in GPS trackers and other ways to create tags instantly. When that day comes, Photoshop Elements will automatically sort ?em out. At least, that?s my hope...
...What the scientists told Allen was that they really wanted a virtual map for the genes that turn on and off in the brain, akin to the blueprint of the entire human genome that, at that time, was nearing completion. So in 2003, the same year that the Human Genome Project (HGP) was finished, Allen pitched in $41 million and launched the Allen Brain Atlas, an ambitious - and altruistic - indexing of the entire genome of the mouse brain that would be available, free of charge, to researchers on the Web. Why mice? It's impossible to get the live samples...
...retired, he's taking part in a stem-cell clinical trial at the London Chest Hospital. "If it works, it's probably the only treatment for somebody like myself," he says. In the hospital's cardiac catheterization laboratory, cardiologist Anthony Mathur uses a probe to map the electrical activity in Johnson's heart. Mathur finds 75% of it damaged, the consequence of earlier undetected heart attacks. Then he takes 10 syringes filled with either blood serum containing stem cells from Johnson's own bone marrow or just blood serum - as part of the experiment, neither patient nor doctor knows which...
...computer. The object was to generate a spike on the monitor by flexing the right muscle. I jerked, twitched and turned my stump. Nothing happened. I pumped again, hunting for the right spot, but the monitor stayed blank. When I grew frustrated, Katie had me close my eyes to map the muscle in my mind. I contracted. She let out a cheer...
