Heh. This Russian airplane pilot thought it would be cool, to fly below tree level on the highway. He probably gave a good scare to the motorists, but it's all good, clean fun

Some pretty amazing low level flying skills from French pilots in Africa. The first plane is a KC-135 Stratotanker, and the second is a mirage fighter. You gotta be downright crazy to do stuff like this!

Here's a crazy pilot flying his plane way too low for his own sake. But it's cool nonetheless, and somebody should buy this guy a drink for his courage, and then make sure he never flies a plane again. Enjoy!

An amazing video of low level "Top Gun" type maneuvers performed in Chad in the canyons by French Mirage F1 fighters. I could watch this countless times. It's simply breathtaking. Enjoy!

An absolutely breathtaking video of the Swiss Alps viewed from a fighter plane.

This amazing low-level flying video is done with a Puma helicopter used by the French army in Chad. You've got to admire the skill of the pilots in this video to fly at grass level. Simply superb! Enjoy this Amazing helicopter low-level flying!

This is an absolutely awesome Mig 29 video clip. It shows the last development of the Mig 29 ( Mig 29 K ) doing some spectacular low-level maneuvers for an air show. If you don't find it exciting just scroll to the 2:30, to see the spectacular Cobra maneuver. Enjoy, this very good quality Mig 29 video clip.

A new technique, developed in the laboratories of the Foundation San Raffaele Biomedical Park, facilitates the process of regeneration of muscle tissue. Stem cells, modified at the level of genes, could permit the recovery of tissue degenerated from Duchenne muscular dystrophy (Dmd), even when the disease is in an advanced stage. This is a further step towards developing a therapy, which is being developed for some years by researchers of the Foundation San Raffaele Biomedical Park of Castel Romano, coordinated by Giulio Cossu, University of Milan. The research, published in Nature Medicine, was conducted by Cesare Gargioli and Marcello Coletta, along with Fabrizio de Grandis and Stefano Cannata at the Roman Tor Vergata. From previous studies and experiments on animal models it is known that mesangioblasti, stem cells normally associated with blood vessels, are able to spread easily and merge with and into the muscle tissue regenerating it (cell therapy). In advanced stages, however, this treatment had so far proven ineffective because of difficulties to penetrate between the muscle fibers. The degeneration, in fact, is accompanied by a process of inflammation followed by scarring tissue that impedes the provision of blood (and thus oxygen) to the muscles. Therefore, the muscle fibers are replaced with fatty tissue. To overcome the obstacle, the researchers genetically modified cells derived from the tendons (fibroblasts) so as to make them express the protein metalloproteasi 9 (Mmp9), a molecule that can degrade collagen that accumulates between fibres degeneration.

The procedural memory remains imprinted in the chemical synapses. It is not the merit of a cell constant. When we drive a car or we tie a shoe knot, we store a series of gestures that are accessed faster and automatically whenever you need that action again. It is the so-called working memory or procedural memory, whose operation resembles that of cache memory of a computer, for example, allows us to more quickly open a website already visited. A study conducted by Gianluigi Mongillo of French Cnrs research, and Omri Barak and Misha Tsodyks the Weizmann Institute (Israel) would seem to refute the widespread belief that this type of memory is fixed thanks to a number of specific neurons. On the contrary, the procedural memory is recorded at the level of chemical changes in cells that remain after the transition pressure in nervous synapses (points of contact and communication between neurons).

Presented today, the Italo-Spanish computer Janus, has a high level of parallelism, in which the architecture of physical connections is established when you run the program! He was baptized Janus, as the Roman god Janus Bifronte, dual supercomputer programmability, where the programmer decides not only what instructions to follow but also, with the same lines of code, which is the exact structure of links physical on which the program should be run.
