GETTING THE BAND BACK TOGETHER: If Rock Band had never existed, then Rock Band 2 would be an unqualified smash. The new songs, wireless instruments and superb online play are substantial improvements over the original. But if you already own the original, RB2 isn't an automatic purchase.

THE MORE THINGS CHANGE: Rock Band 2 will feel familiar to fans of the first game, from the menus to the game-play. It took me a few songs to remind my fingers how everything worked, but I was soon jamming to newly added tunes such as "Eye of the Tiger" and "Spirit in the Sky."

ST. LOUIS — His job seems a little zany.

Dan Moran's daily grind involves trying to get monkeys to move objects using only their brains.

But it's not telepathy — it's science. And Moran says he's making progress that could have serious implications in the medical community.

The professor of biomedical engineering and neurobiology at Washington University told an audience at the St. Louis Science Center on Sunday morning it might not be long before his research can be used to help humans suffering from paralysis.
From the University of Minnesota, Mankato:

Allison Davis led a long thoughtful life trying to help many others along on his journey. It all started on October 14, 1902, when William Allison Davis was born to John and Gabrielle Davis. They raised him on a farm in Virginia with his two siblings, Dorothy and John Jr. By the time he was a teenager the family moved to Washington DC. As a young child Allison Davis felt that he had to do something about the discrimination towards African Americans, so he devoted his life to trying to make a difference among the equal treatment children of different races.
