Me And My Shadow also added to Spotify Playlist Jack Frost TV 5 Stages of Grief Got Graveyard (SPOILERS!!!)   Research from Stacy the Glittering Researcher There is a failure to match the pace of nanotechnology with ethical consideration of its use. The ethical issues fall into the areas of equity, privacy, security, environment, and metaphysical questions concerning human–machine interactions.  The following is taken from Mnyusiwalla, 2003: ‘Mind the gap’: science and ethics in nanotechnology   NT=nanotechnology   Equity. Who will benefit from advances in NT? Today we talk of the digital divide as something that is harmful and that we should attempt to correct. We have also talked about the emerging ‘genomics divide’ in a similar fashion [23]. This is because we have come to understand that technology and development are intricately linked [24], and that what at first appears to be very ‘high-tech’ and costly and therefore perhaps irrelevant for developing countries, in the end might come to be of most value for those same developing countries [25]. Thus NT, were it to develop in the way it ought, might ultimately be of most value for the poor and sick in the developing world. At the Johannesburg summit, the main issues for developing countries were poverty reduction, energy, water, health, and biodiversity. NT has the potential to make a positive impact on all of these if its risks either do not materialize or are appropriately managed. The poor could benefit from NT, for example, through safer drug delivery, lower needs for energy, cleaner energy production, and environmental remediation. It is also possible that health could be improved by better prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. One of the biggest health problems in developing countries is trauma, especially from road traffic accidents, and absence of rehabilitation facilities [26]: better nanomaterials for making safer tyres, or NT-based scaffolds to grow bone [27] may be extremely important, especially if the promise of mass production at very low cost materializes. Furthermore, if developing countries were to see the potential of NT and became early players in the field (see China’s increased expenditure on NT R&D; table 1), NT might have an impact on their economic development and obviate the need quite soon for these countries to become net importers of NT. This is similar to what is happening in biotechnology, a field in which countries such as India, China, Brazil, and Cuba have already begun to invest in [28]. Privacy and security. NT is capable of dramatically improving surveillance devices, and producing new weapons. How would individual privacy be protected if near-invisible microphones, cameras, and tracking devices become widely available? Will these new technologies increase security or add to the arsenal of bio- and techno- or even nano-terrorism? Who will regulate the direction of research in defensive and offensive military NT? How much transparency will be necessary in government and private NT initiatives to avoid misuses? There are also very interesting legal questions [29] involving monitoring, ownership, and control of invisible objects [17]. The next asbestos? Environmental issues. NT has already generated nov…

Nighttime, night lands all good jumping off points for a sleep podcast. Instead I get fixated on Taylor Swift's "Shake it Off" and keep exploring tangential threads that bring me back there. Don't worry there will be plenty of mind numbing moments to break it up. Shake it Off Taylor Swift and Spotify the white room and yo ho!\ Table of Contents 00:00 Intro 07:59 Thank You 15:12 Episode 28:56 Table of Contents 29:17 Pyke 33:46 Podcast HERO Britney Gallivan and Paper Folding 50:45 Lethargy 01:02:20 Giant Squids 01:08:52 Pirates of the Caribbean 01:23:50 Tommen and Ser Pounce 01:36:11 Prayers to Old Gods and New In an attempt to reduce the super boring over-reliance on wikipedia articles we now have some a "Glittering Researcher" Stacy who is generously helping out. Here's Stacy's outstanding work this week- Do spiders have hair? (Could be short article) I'd recommend that you not talk about spiders on the podcast actually since this is one of the most common phobias.  Animal phobias are the most frequently occurring phobias (4.3% of the total population have JUST animal phobias - Becker 2007).  Spider fear has been used in research to examine behavioral approach/avoidance patterns (Rinck 2007).  This was done by asking participants to move a joystick either toward or away from an image of a spider on a computer.  People with spider fear were much quicker to move away from a spider in this way, and much more hesitant to move toward it when asked to approach.  Approach/avoidance patterns are used to gauge peoples' gut reactions to stimuli, as they tend to be a totally non-conscious reaction - they do not need any conscious thought in order to tell the body to move away.  People who have animal phobias such as spider phobia are more likely to also have co-occurring mental illnesses - particularly anxiety and mood disorders, but also somatoform disorders (unexplained pain), substance abuse, and childhood onset mental illnesses (Becker 2007).  That being said, spider fear in particular (as opposed to animal fear in general) is not as clearly linked with other mental illnesses aside from animal phobias (Davey 1991; http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/08917779208248798#.VGZApfldVqU); a bad experience with a spider is not typically the cause of spider fear, and spider fear is particularly resistant to treatment.   That being said, spider hair is called sensilla I believe. See attached (Barth 2004) for a thorough discussion on how these hairs work.   Temperatures/conditions that cause lethargy and why we get lethargic. Taken directly from the article (Fakuda 1994) - "Chronic fatigue syndrom is a clinically defined condition characterized by severe disabling fatigue and a combination of symptoms that prominately features self-reported impairments in concentration and short-term memory, sleep disturbances, and musculoskeletal pain.  Recent longitudinal studies suggest that some persons affected by the chronic fatigue syndrome improve with time but most remain functionally impaired for several years."   I found an awesome fatigue scale that's extremely commonly used to assess lethargy in research.  Here are some of the items: I feel tired I tire easily Physically I feel I am in bad condition Physically I feel only able to do a little I think I do very little in a day I get little done I dread having to do things I don't feel like doing anything My thoughts easily wander It takes a lot of effort to concentrate on things. This scale divides fatigue into several groups: General fatigue, physical fatigue, reduced activity (vigor), reduced motivation, and mental (cognitive) fatigue.  This scale has been shown to be a valid measure of fatigue, particularly due to how well it correlates with behavioral data- namely, how well people are able to per…
