    I'm always whining about the state of movie trailers, especially those for big-budget Hollywood movies. They tend to give away too much (too much plot in dramas, too many jokes in comedies, too much blood and guts in action movies)...

    8 Feb 2010 | 4:00 pm
    Many people have a to-do list to keep track of tasks that they might otherwise forget to do. This organization is a great way to help remember everything that you need to do. Having a to-do list can also help you plan your work ahead of time. As we have learned, a little planning can greatly improve your motivation and productivity. A pen and paper is all you really need for a task list, but many people prefer using their PDA because it can keep track of important information such as due-dates and priorities. The problem with PDAs is that they have tiny screens are often difficult to use. A…

  • Memory : Neurotrophins

    8 Feb 2010 | 4:00 pm
    Neurotrophins are small proteins that are naturally produced in the brain and act like mental nutrients. A constant level of neurotrophins are required just to keep the neurons alive. Neurotrophins are also responsible for pruning out unwanted cells and for stimulating the growth of new dendrites. Stimulating your mind with new and interesting experiences causes it to increase the production of neurotrophins, which in turn increase the strength and complexity of the dendrites. It causes neurons to connect to different areas of the brain and form new patterns. The more connections you have,…

    A tricky social situation I’d never thought of: what do you do when your identical twin dies? Well, you bury and mourn him or her, of course, and then go through their stuff. (You know it will fit you!) But here’s what I’m getting at: when you show up at the funeral, many of the deceased’s friends, co-workers, etc. will never have met you. I’d guess that somewhere around a third of them might not even know he or she was a twin. In other words: there will be whispers, pointing, dropped drinks, maybe screams. You will be widely assumed to be the dead, come back to…

    Question. (Dwight Shrute voice off.) You often see claims that smell is the sense most closely related to memory. This is received wisdom, never challenged. Is it actually true? Is there experimental data to show that smell relates to memory in a way that taste, sight, etc. do not? I guess the olfactory nerve is part of the limbic system, which would tie it to memory, but…I don’t know. It sounds like such a facile observation about such a thorny area of vast human ignorance that it seems little suspect. And ever since I found out the “taste map” of the tongue was BS,…

    I am a huge fan of Beatles Rock Band, which we got for our Wii at Christmas. I was at best a mild fan of the other Rock Band games: those games, it turns out, are for people who grew up miming hair-band guitar solos on their tennis rackets. But if you grew up cheekily bobbing your air-guitar neck and grinning to the girls in the crowd like you saw Paul and George do in old Ed Sullivan video, Beatles Rock Band is for you. The only dispiriting thing about the game for me (besides not being able to master the bass part to “Within You Without You”) is learning how many Beatles lyrics…

If “Blacula” is a black vampire, I thought “Pakula” might be, I don’t know, a vampire who’s really good at packing. Or a Pakistani vampire. Is that racist? Jack Warden’s character apparently christens the two lead characters “Woodstein.” So here’s my question: was this the…

  • Video: Inside the Chernobyl “Zone of Alienation”

    Chris Higgins
    9 Feb 2010 | 11:14 am
    On April 26, 1986 a massive accident occurred at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in what is now the Ukraine. A nuclear reactor exploded, sending radioactive fallout into the atmosphere and killing more than 50 people, with another 800,000 exposed to radiation and increased risk of cancer. Around the Chernobyl plant is a 30-kilometer Zone of Alienation (I’m not making this name up), established to prevent people from entering the most heavily contaminated area (and hurriedly evacuated, as you can see by what has been left behind). But people go there anyway, and when they do, what they…

  • Hadacol, the Last of the Medicine Shows

    Advertiser-supported entertainment is nothing new. Since medieval times, people could see free entertainment right in their hometown as long as they listened to a sales pitch for dubious remedies along with the singing, dancing, and side show acts. Sales of snake oil and other patent medicines paid for the show and then some. Like other forms of traveling entertainment, the medicine show lost its luster when people gained the opportunity to go see movies instead. The medicine show had one last hurrah during the 20th century in the form of Hadacol. The story of Hadacol is the story of Dudley…

    Ransom Riggs
    9 Feb 2010 | 8:26 am
    There was a fascinating article in the New York Times the other day about violence in the Philippines and its thriving karaoke culture — and the deadly problems that can crop up when it comes to Frank Sinatra. In fact, it’s one Sinatra song in particular that seems to be the cause of so much trouble — and which has played a role in dozens of karaoke-related killings over the years — “My Way.” The authorities do not know exactly how many people have been killed warbling “My Way” in karaoke bars in the Philippines, or how many fatal fights it has fueled.

  • 14 Quirky College Donations (and the Strings Attached)

    Ethan Trex
    9 Feb 2010 | 7:44 am
    For most of us, college donations entail little more than occasionally dropping a small check in the mail after receiving repeated pleas for cash from our alma maters. Some people, though, tend to be a bit more individualistic with their generosity. Let’s take a look at some of the quirkier donations schools have received: 1. Bequest Puts Jocks on the Ropes In 1907, fledgling Swarthmore College received a bequest that was estimated to be worth somewhere between $1 and $3 million. If the school wanted the cash, though, it would have to stop participating in intercollegiate sports. Swarthmore…
