...pension and foreign money is flooding into TIPS. With too many buyers chasing too few bonds, TIPS carry a paltry after-inflation yield of 2%. "People are going to wake up one day and decide that a 2% real yield just isn't enough," says Joe Shatz, a bond analyst at Merrill Lynch. If that happens, demand will fall, and TIPS holders will take a hit. Shatz advises waiting for an after-inflation yield of 2.5%. Until then, a short-term bond fund or bank CD will do nicely...

...what awes scientists who study the brain, what still stuns them, is not that things occasionally go wrong in the developing brain but that so much of the time they go right. This is all the more remarkable, says Berkeley's Shatz, as the central nervous system of an embryo is not a miniature of the adult system but more like a tadpole that gives rise to a frog. Among other things, the cells produced in the neural tube must migrate to distant locations and accurately lay down the connections that link one part of the brain to another...
...scrambled as a bowl of spaghetti, according to Michael Stryker, chairman of the physiology department at the University of California at San Francisco. What sorts out the mess, scientists have established, is neural activity. In a series of experiments viewed as classics by scientists in the field, Berkeley's Shatz chemically blocked neural activity in embryonic cats. The result? The axons that connect neurons in the retina of the eye to the brain never formed the left eye-right eye geometry needed to support vision...
