Here's a geeky way to rock your child to sleep. Verry cool, and a real time saver. Enjoy!

An ingenious idea for a paper animation of the game that ate our childhoods: Mario. It's made really well, and all it wants back is a minute of your life Enjoy!

A hilarious video, with an American football mascot scaring children and adults alike. You won't stop laughing! Enjoy!

Well...this is by far one of the craziest things I've seen in a while: letting a kid man a big power shovel and other industrial equipment. It's not like he can't, it's just a problem of what he can do if he is left alone or unsupervised. That is the issue, IMO. Anyway, this is crazy!

The kid in this video tried to shoot a spud gun but eventually ended up with a kick to the groin. So, kids, don't try to shoot a spud gun at home, or you won't have children

Here's a new and very cool application of technology: letting your child draw on a wall without actual paint, but with lasers. It's quite cool actually, and very good for developing his creativity. Have a look for yourself!

Imagine having a picture and being able to transform it into a 3D environment, and then navigating through it like you were there. What is more spectacular, is that this system would be able to transform the pictures from Google Earth into spectacular 3D environments. Wow.

Wow....this is some amazing stuff...This guy rides a bicycle taller than a bus! If he'd fall from so far up, he could even die, and would be lucky if he just had some broken bones....so, it's no child's play! Simply amazing! Enjoy!

This little Chinese 3yr old, can solve the Rubik's Cube in 114 seconds. That would be a performance for anyone, let alone for a small child. Quite amazing!

This is NASA WorldWind 1.4 and it makes Google Earth look like child's play. It just takes it to a next level. Besides exploring Earth, you can explore the Solar System's planets just like in Google Earth and see the volcanoes, craters and planet rings. It's plain awesome!

This children of men trailer video looks great. Alfonso Cuarón's (director of the movie) delivers an exciting plot, which will definitely keep on the edge of your seat: no baby has been born in the last 20 years, and humanity is taking it's last breath on Earth. One man (Clive Owen) can change this. From the reviews on the net, it's going to be a hit. So look out for "Children of Men" on cinema. Meanwhile enjoy the trailer!

An enzyme that can rewind the DNA at points where the two propellers should remain separate, even fatal, causing disturbances. The cause of some serious diseases, such as the rare immune-dysplasia of bone Schimke is a protein able to settle the two propellers of DNA at points in which they should remain separate and thus induce the expression of genes that would otherwise be idle. Under normal circumstances the DNA presents a series of "bubbles", namely the segments in which there is space between them and raggomitolate. The unusual alignment of the two parallel strips, led by newly discovered protein, called Harp (HEPA-related protein), reactivates the expression of genes in these traits, which may in this way to start even occurrence of very serious diseases. The enzyme is and was discovered by James Kadonaga and Timur Yusufzai, two biologists at the University of San Diego (California) authors whose research results were published in Science. Just as a zip, the enzyme flows on the tape of DNA tangles the lines and welding to the two separate entities, thereby according the traits of nucleic acid that ordinarily are designed to remain inactive. Exactly the opposite of what another enzyme, the "elicasi", which has the role to unwind the DNA during replication of the molecule, being essential for life. The protein discovery is only the first of an entire class of enzymes candidates to be the basis of occurrence of disorders characterized by cardiac or kidney malfunction, with even fatal effects on children.

Npas4: This protein regulates the formation of inhibitory synapses between neurons. The inhibitory activity of neurons is regulated by a particular switch. This is a protein involved in the formation and maintenance of synapses in regulating selectively switching the electrical signal between nerve cells. Its name is Npas4 and was discovered by researchers from the Children's Hospital in Boston this week to publish their study in Nature. In particular, the protein in question is a transcription factor, that is a molecule that can activate or deactivate specific genes. Those which would be linked to Npas4 are more than 270. When the protein is produced in large quantities, we are seeing an increase in the number of inhibitory synapses on the surface of nerve cells. But what induces the production of high levels of Npas4? According to the researchers this is a reaction to excitatory synaptic. "It is as if the same excitement triggers a program to rebalance the brain with inhibition," says Michael Greenberg, coordinator of the study, which continues: "The mice in which the protein is suppressed, in fact, have neurological problems: are anxious, hyperactive and more subject to seizures. " The discovery could help researchers in studying these disorders. Inhibition, in fact, plays an important role in brain development.

The mutation of the gene Alk would be responsible for inherited forms of cancer. Neuroblastoma is a childhood cancer more widespread and aggressive: it attacks the autonomic nervous system during development, forming frequently in tumor masses or into the chest. A study, published in Nature and coordinated by the Children Hospital of Philadelphia (USA), indicates that mutations in the gene anaplastic lymphoma kinase (Alk) would be responsible for inherited forms of the disease. The international group of researchers, including some of the Italian Institute for Cancer Research in Genoa, have collected genetic information of 20 families where the disease was presented in more than one occasion, by analyzing the DNA of 176 people ( of which 49 with neuroblastoma). Eight families, in which at least three individuals suffering from the disease were closely analyzed, possessed the changed Alk gene. The normal role of this gene, which expresses a transmembrane receptor, is not yet understood in depth but, according to previous studies, its alterations increase the risk of developing lymphoma or lung cancer.

The sense of justice and the practical idea of efficiency are encoded in different ways and in different areas of the brain. A study in Science. Giving a lot to very few, or just a little at everyone? According to a study published on this number of Science, most people follow the second choice, relying on fairness. The neurophysiologists at the University of Illinois and California Institute of Technology have succeeded, through magnetic resonance imaging, to identify which brain areas are involved in taking such decisions. Scientists have concluded that two different parts of the brain, the insula (a small area of bark MEP to the perception of physiological states) and the putamen (Part nuclei that control voluntary movement), are activated when judging respectively fairness and efficiency. A third area, the caudate nucleus, is the coordination of the first two areas.
