My aged G4 iMac is dead and a new Mac is not immediately on the horizon. Please be patient while I save up for the next 2 1/2 years.
Meanwhile, even on a borrowed computer, I can’t resist a dig at Facebook.

A smart use for wisdom teeth: Making stem cells — Medical Daily
WOW!!
For most people, wisdom teeth are not much more than an annoyance that eventually needs to be removed. However, a new study appearing in the September 17 Journal of Biological Chemistry shows that wisdom teeth contain a valuable reservoir of tissue for the creation of stem cells; thus, everyone might be carrying around his or her own personal stem-cell repository should he or she ever need some.
Groundbreaking research back in 2006 revealed that inducing the activity of four genes in adult cells could “reprogram” them back into a stem-cell-like state; biologically, these induced-pluripotent stem cells are virtually identical to embryonic stem cells, opening up a new potential avenue for stem-cell therapy whereby patients could be treated with their own stem cells.

Research Upends Traditional Thinking on Study Habits - NYTimes.com
This is a fascinating article. Some nonsense theories are debunked while other common sense ideas are reinforced.
I love the idea that tests are a study aid, not a reason to choke.

What some people claim is now beyond doubt is that junk foods rich in salt, sugar and fat switch on biological mechanisms that are just as powerful, and hard to fight, as drugs of abuse. Given that we regulate drugs because of the harms they can cause, is it time to begin tougher regulation of fast food too?
