From the research, the cells that are those things that reproduce themselves, reproduce themselves very quickly.. "Stem cells"?...
Well, the ones in your nose do so extremely quickly, and if injected into a damaged area like a severed nerve, may regrow new "Paths"...........
Fascinating.
And bloody good news.

She was on the news... she intended to raise about £500, but got all of that. The money will be spent in providing the guy with accommodation, the rest, in consultation with the guy, is to be spread out over all the homeless charities in the area that have helped him and others. Brilliant... what a nice thing to do for christmas. Elsewhere....  Key 103 Radio station has been promoting this for a while, they have had a HUGE response, and thanks to all of Manchester... www.key103.co.uk/charity/missionchristmas/ |

Prankster Gives Homeless Man $100, Secretly Follows Him And Learns He Buys Food For OthersThis video proves that a person's integrity goes far beyond what meets the eye. In a video uploaded to YouTube, prankster Josh Paler Lin gives $100 to a homeless man and secretly follows the him to find out how it's spent. The homeless man is seen on camera buying food and giving it to strangers in the park. The sight turns Lin's perception of homelessness on its head. Lin says he is "stunned" and admits he thought the man might buy alcohol. "You just touched my heart," Lin told him. While the gesture left the prankster so emotional that he decided to donate another $100, he also had something to offer Lin: "There's a lot of people that are just victims of circumstance," the homeless man told him. "And they didn't go homeless because they're lazy ...It could be a divorce, and one thing leads to another. A man sells his boat, his home, and all of a sudden he finds out he has no money. There's a lot of good people that are homeless."

With the bad news elsewhere today, I thought I would mention this piece here. www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-30706236All 13 passengers and crew of an aircraft on a skydiving trip bailed out successfully after it developed engine troubles, and later crashed into a lake. |

The good news for today is the temperature is going down to -13ºF (-25C) tonight. What's good about that, you ask? Well, it's good that it's not going down to -20ºF

Well, it's good that it's not going down to -20ºF Is that actual temp, or feels like temp? I ask because it's currently -11ºF here, but the wind chill makes it feel like -35ºF. Schools in the entire area (most of the state) are closed today due to the temps. Coldest day of the year so far. |

They're saying the wind chill is supposed to be in the "better stay inside" range. Our record low here is something like -34ºF so we have a way to go to even get close to breaking the record. I guess that's the "All Good" part. |

Today's high was 20F here. The put the windchill at -5F. The worst part is of all the times to get sick... Went to the doc today said I have flu and Strep. For better or worst, I am not allowed to go to work for 2 days because I am highly contagious. Worst part is i has been snowing and someone has to clean up so we can get in and out of the house. Super cold air in sick lungs is very painful. Tomorrow they are calling for full sun. That will help melt some snow off the drive, and may make things look better when I am stuck in.

Doesn't sound like "It's All Good" at your house. Hopefully you'll start feeling a little better tomorrow. |
