Research reveals 'exquisite selectivity' of neuronal wiring in the cerebral cortex
The brain's astonishing anatomical complexity has been appreciated for over 100 years, when pioneers first trained microscopes on the profusion of branching structures that connect individual neurons. Even in the tiniest areas of brain tissue, the pathways are tangled, almost indescribably dense. Today, neuroscientists are trying to figure out the workings of all those cells and the networks they form, the ultimate grand-challenge problem. In a study appearing today in Nature Neuroscience, a team from Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) uses advanced technologies to illuminate the connectivity pattern of chandelier cells, a distinctive kind of inhibitory cell type in the mammalian brain. They reveal for the first time how this candelabra-shaped cell interacts with hundreds of excitatory cells in its neighborhood, receiving information from some, imparting information to others. In the experiments just reported, these highly specific interactions are situated in the context of a larger global network regulating the fear response in mice. Chandelier cells play analogous roles in other networks, capable of inhibiting excitatory neurons in a variety of contexts. The research therefore suggests more broadly how communication hierarchies may be shaped in the brain, as diverse and often intermingled sets of neurons in "local" areas both receive inputs from and send outputs to distinct brain areas, near and far.

“In astronomy, there’s a simple formula for stars: add more mass, and your star becomes brighter, bluer, and hotter. This pattern hold from stars just a few percent the mass of the Sun to over 200 times as massive. But there’s a limit to the temperature these stars achieve, even the most massive ones. If you want to go hotter, you need something extra: to lose your hydrogen.”
The most massive stars in the Universe are true behemoths, rising to hundreds of times the mass of our Sun and burning at temperatures upwards of 30,000 K at their surface. But there are stars out there that are even hotter, despite only being 10% or less as massive: Wolf-Rayet stars. The key to their cosmic success? Blowing off their outer layers of hydrogen. By only leaving the dense, massive core of already-fused elements, Wolf-Rayet stars burn helium, carbon, oxygen or even heavier elements at their centers, while the journey to the surface “only” cools the star down to ~200,000 K by time the edge of the photosphere is reached. Elements like carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen may be ionized up to four times when their spectra are viewed.
Come learn the secret – and get the spectacular images and descriptions – of the hottest stars in the Universe for today’s Mostly Mute Monday!

"We've all felt the frustration that comes with keyboard lag once in a while, and it's not a good experience. By keeping a tighter leash on the apps we're not looking at, memory, processing power, and battery life is used more efficiently and we'll see less of things like keyboard lag. The end user — that's us! — doesn't have to do anything here because these changes are part of the system."

Asteroid 2017 QN2 missed the Earth at 0.57 LD on August 20, 2017
A newly discovered asteroid designated 2017 QN2 missed the Earth at a distance of 0.57 LD (~ 218 880 km / 136 005 miles) on August 20, 2017. This is the 23rd known near-Earth asteroid to flyby Earth within 1 lunar distance since the start of the year.
This asteroid was first observed on August 18, 2017. So far, there are only 10 observations used to determine its orbit parameters. Thus, this object has MPC "U" parameter (orbit uncertainty estimate) of 8 (on a scale of 0 - 9, with 9 being highly uncertain).
2017 QN2 belongs to the Apollo group of asteroids. Its estimated size is between 5.6 and 13 m. It made the closest approach to our planet at 21:54 UTC at a distance of 0.57 LD (~ 218 880 km / 136 005 miles) and flyby us at a speed (relative to the Earth) of 15.32 km/s.

+Chrome Unboxed and other sources have reported recently on the arrival of an Intel M5-equipped +ASUS C302A Chromebook Flip on Amazon, but please note that the expected ship time claimed on this product's page is 1-2 months - what you might call a soft pre-order, I suppose. This upgraded model still features 4GB of RAM, not an expected 8GB upgrade option. Sounds like a great machine in may event. I still love my Chromebook Pixel, but I am seeing a need for a good convertible device some time soon...

I think it would be hilarious if Bannon creates the "TrumpTV" that the president planned to create when he lost the election (Kuchner had already been talking to potential investors) and use it to destroy Fox and Trump, while making the billions that Trump hoped to make on the venture and become a real billionaire like Bloomberg.
