Stem cell
Stem cell - Stem cells are biological cells found in all multicellular organisms, that can divide (through mitosis) and differentiate into diverse specialized cell types and can self-renew to produce more stem cells. In mammals, there are two broad types of stem cells: embryonic stem cells, which are isolated from the inner cell mass of blastocysts, and adult stem cells, which are found in various tissues. In adult organisms, stem cells and progenitor cells act as a repair system for the body, replenishing adult tissues.

kirk douglas donation
Legendary actor Kirk Douglas doubled-down on his original donation for Skid Row homeless women by pledging a total of $10 million Wednesday.
Earlier this year the 95-year-old award-winning star of films like "Spartacus", "Gunfight at the O.K. Corral", and "Tough Guys" earmarked a total of $5 million for continued support to the Anne Douglas Center for Women at the Los Angeles Mission.
Last night the actor doubled his contribution as the center, named after his wife, was celebrating its 20th anniversary.
“We are beyond grateful for the support the Douglas family has shown the Los Angeles Mission,” Los Angeles Mission President Herb Smith said Wednesday.
On Thursday Smith told Blogdowntown that the Douglas's are "absolutely far and away the biggest individual donors" to the Mission and did not expect them to continue to give in such large numbers so quickly.
"Last year they pledged $1 million, last spring another $4 million," Smith recalled.
"They've been trying to keep [the additional $5 million pledge] a secret," Smith said. "It was a total surprise. I didn't see it coming."
Smith said he expects to meet next week to go over he details of the gift that will secure financing of many programs and services for years to come. "We're just glad he made the pledge," Smith said.
“Thank you for teaching me that caring is sharing,” Douglas told his wife of 57 years Wednesday.

What's unusual about this tire shop?
'All Girls' Tire Shop Thriving in Texas, At first look, Treds Tire and Wheel in San Antonio seems familiar. Stacks of tires surround busy workers doing repairs, rotations and fixing flats. But a closer look reveals some unusual details.
The tire jack is pink, the tools have polka dots, and all of the employees are women.
"I'm a strong believer that women can do things that men can do," Andrea Rodriguez, the manager, told ABCNews.com. "I have four brothers so I was raised with that mentality. I can do things that my brothers could do."
Rodriguez is 19. When her family told her they wanted to open a tire shop in a building where several consecutive tire businesses had failed, she asked her mother, "Why not make it different and make it all girls?"
"She started getting on Facebook to recruit some people and put in ads and there was a lot of female applicants that wanted to do it and didn't mind the work," said Rodriguez's mother, Margaret.
"We didn't paint a pretty picture," she said. "It's a man's job -- dirty, tiring. There's nothing easy about it."
The applications poured in and the shop now employs six women and a female intern from a local college.
Margaret Rodriguez said that the clients are a good mix of men and women. She said most people are excited about the shop and supportive, but there are some detractors. She said some have said the women should not be doing a man's job and that they should be in the kitchen "making sandwiches," but the negativity makes the women work harder.
"We just think it's funny, but, actually, it gives us more willpower and incentive to keep going."
One of Andrea Rodriguez's brothers trained her and she now runs the business. She plans on going to school to become a dentist, but is working at the shop full-time for now.
She said she does not aim to be a role model, but hopes that she can help change people's stereotypes about women.
"Everyone has their own opinions about women doing a man's job -- if it's even a man's job," she said. "We have women doing it."
The shop has been open for seven months and Margaret Rodriguez said that business is thriving.
"For us, it was like a miracle," she said. "We're very fortunate."

iPhone 5 connector's cost
Design Thrills Apple’s Partners, but Will Cost Users, The iPhone 5 has plenty of new features to keep Apple fans happy. But there is one feature Apple unveiled on Wednesday that is likely to annoy many: a new connector on the phone’s base.The Lightning port, as Apple calls it, is smaller and shaped differently from the old one, instantly rendering obsolete the millions of spare charging cords, docks and iPhone-ready clock radios that its customers have accumulated over the years.
While irritating to some, the Lightning connector could be a boon to the hundreds of companies that sell accessories for iPhones and iPads.
“Apple is testing the patience of its fans,” said Tero Kuittinen, an independent analyst and a vice president of Alekstra, a company that helps customers manage cellphone costs.
“A lot of Apple fans have a lot of different accessories and use the old systems, so this is going to be a fairly expensive shift for a lot of them,” Mr. Kuittinen said. Makers of iPhone accessories are likely to be ecstatic, he added.
Apple, which is selling Lightning cables and $30 adapters that will connect the new phones to many but not all older accessories, is, of course, poised to profit from the design change as well. Apple said the smaller connector allowed it to make the phone thinner and use space inside the device more efficiently.
Accessories for Apple products are already a vast and lucrative business. In the last year, iPad, iPod and iPhone add-ons, including speakers, cases and power chargers, generated $2 billion in sales in the United States alone, according to the NPD Group, a research firm.
To stay on top of the market and avoid building products that will soon be out of date, accessory makers have to watch Apple as attentively as any technology journalist or analyst. Apple, which is known for its culture of secrecy, generally keeps accessory makers in the dark before it unveils its new hardware. The companies rely instead on leaks from Apple’s manufacturing partners in Asia, or on rumors about the devices that surface on Apple-focused blogs. On the day of an Apple hardware announcement, they watch reports of the event and wait for data sheets to come from Apple with details on the devices before they crank up manufacturing in China.
Griffin Technology, a company in Nashville that makes Apple accessories, said that moments after Apple introduced the iPhone 5, its employees were making final design tweaks in its prototyping shop, where 3-D printers turn out mock-ups of future products. Many Griffin employees had already traveled to China from the United States to be there when the iPhone 5 was introduced.
“Kind of like everyone else, we’re at the same starting line in the race to the peg,” said Mark Rowan, Griffin’s president.
Similarly, employees of Incase, a maker of iPhone cases based in San Francisco, crowded into a conference room to watch online reports of Apple’s presentation, said Dave Gatto, the chief executive. Employees in China were waiting at factories for final design specifications so they could start making cases.
Occasionally a rare few in the business get a peek at an Apple prototype, according to Jeremy Horwitz, editor in chief of iLounge, a Web site that reviews Apple accessories. Much as some software developers get to use a new Apple product in advance so they can have software ready to show off on Apple’s stage, he said, some accessory makers have had access to Apple devices before their unveiling. Mr. Horwitz said these devices were typically locked down to prevent theft or leaks.
Some companies take unsanctioned routes to get ahead of the game. Hard Candy Cases, a case maker, sent iPhone 5 cases to journalists before Apple even introduced the phone. Tim Hickman, chief executive of the company, said manufacturers in Shenzhen, where his cases are made, sent around design information for unreleased iPhones to attract case makers like himself.
“The factories have gone from, ‘Shhh, hey, buddy, look at what I have for you,’ to making it part of their presentation,” he said.
Mr. Hickman said he did not buy information from leakers in Asia. Instead, he said, he made a deal with a factory that had told him it could make cases for the iPhone 5 and asked him to send designs that it would then modify to fit the new phone. He said his iPhone 5 cases for sale to customers would arrive in the United States in about three days.
IHome, a New York company that is one of the biggest makers of iPhone clock radios and other Apple audio accessories, tries to plan for Apple’s announcements but does not assume anything is fact until the company unveils its new hardware, said Ezra S. Ashkenazi, its chief executive. He called the Lightning change “a unique circumstance” because it was the first time Apple had changed the connector since it was introduced.
There are already iPhone clock radios made by iHome and other companies in hotel rooms around the world. Kathy Duffy, director of public relations for the Marriott hotels in New York, said that if many patrons seemed to be getting the iPhone 5, the company would probably stock up on adapters or buy new accessories. “We’d have to evaluate it and see what the demand is,” she said.

Lady Gaga Buzzes Off Hair
SINGER Lady GaGa has shaved off (or buzzed!) most of her hair!
The singer completely buzzed the back earlier this weekend, becoming the latest in a long line of celebs including Miley Cyrus, Lena Dunham and Kellie Pickler to chop off a significant portion of her hair.
GaGa made the change for her friend Terry Richardson. The pair have been close for many years. He lost his mother, Annie Lomax, earlier this week; so, they decided to do something to honor her.
”I did it for u Terry. I’m sorry about ure mommy. She has princess die, but were all princess high,” GaGa wrote on Twitter.
Recent reports claimed GaGa has cut down on her booze intake.
“GaGa had an intimate chat with fans backstage on the Born This Way Ball tour in Amsterdam,” a source said.
“She told them, ‘I’ve toned down my drinking because I’m not depressed like before. Now I only have one glass of wine every now and then.”
GaGa recently went on a new diet when she reached the European leg of her world tour, in the hope she would drop 10lb in just four weeks.
“GaGa has decided to go on a major body blitz and cut out all gluten and wheat from her diet, which is very hard to do,” a source said.
“She has given her people strict instruction to advise staff at venues and restaurants about her new diet because she is taking it very seriously.
“Her aim is to drop 10lb in a month.”

Behavior management is actually a significant part of what teachers have to do every day, and while there’s a wealth of information to help them with tips and tricks, there isn’t a lot of technology in place to help them with the implementation of best practices.There may be a solution with the use of tech — at least that’s what ClassDojo founder Sam Chaudhary believes. His startup is working on a Web and mobile app that will allow teachers to quickly and easily track class behavior.
