Being a geek and reviewing software is a real passion of mine. I like software that is easy to use, figure out without reading a book and does not mess up my computer. Tweetdeck is one of those products. It is simple for the day to day user and great for people like me who wants to know everything about everyone.  You really need to check it out. Works great on the IPhone.

Blue Food Coloring Un-Paralyzes Rats

Print PDF
from Boing Boing by McLaren+Torchinsky

This article at National Geographic gives a good gist of what's going on: apparently, regular old blue food coloring, like the stuff you find in Gatorade or M&Ms, has been found to reduce spinal cord trauma and inflammation, leading to at least a partial reversal of paralysis, at least in some mice. And, unlike other treatments, there's no toxic effects.

And the best part? They turned blue! Now there's hope for anyone hoping to both regain use of paralyzed limbs and a desire to look like a really cold guy in a cartoon.
