The Planet Earth blu rays, while technically "region free" are encoded at the 50 hz refresh rate of British broadcast TV. Most American players will be unable to read the discs (American Tv is 60hz).

Published in UK in 2013. US version isn't out until later this year. You can get the British edition from the Book Depository site with free shipping though. http://www.bookdepository.com/Proxima-Stephe…

Since this game switched to steamworks from GFWL, retail keys activate on Steam with minervas den DLC included.

Important question: how cool was the police headquarters? I work in the building where they filmed it, abd seeing the end result is a my impetus to see this.

I know he said he doesn't speak French, but wow, was his pronunciation beyond terrible. If you are going to talk about etymology a little effort on pronunciation is worth it.

Everyone gets those games when they create a gog account. They are always free.
And they don't send actual codes, they just make the games accessible from your account so you can't give them away per se.

Also I just did a quick ebay search which says they are easily available. I think your problem might have been googling the wrong restaurant.

It was from Pizza Hut/Taco Bell/Kfc. I still have one.

This is closer to AIDS the toy.

I was going to comment that this guy is Sate Pestage, a major villain in the X-wing comics, but wookieepedia seems to disagree...

Yes, North American culture has some stigma toward bathroom talk, but as someone who had ulcerative colitis (and now has no colon, but still has to go to the bathroom frequently), my MO is to be extremely open about it. I talk about my experiences and problems a lot with colleagues, and they are all aware of the…

I can't say I've read much about deja vu. Generalization is a situation in which memories are recalled in situations similar to those that are associated with it (like loud sounds triggering PTSD sufferers). Recent evidence points to the nucleus reuniens in the brain as a possible control centre for the…

This is my last try... The mouse is not in the same environment in which it was shocked. It shows fear behaviour even though it was NEVER shocked there. The situation you describe is EXACTLY how normal fear conditioning works, but that is NOT what Tonegawa and co. did.

They have pretty good controls, most of the experiments were also completed with both mice missing ChR2 and mice where no light is given to activate ChR2. The false memory mice have statistically significant differences from these controls. If you are able to check the source paper, it is in the figures and…

The mouse is in an environment where it has never experienced electric shock, but acts as though it has a fear memory. The experiment uses simple associations, but it does act as though it has a memory of an event that never happened.

I think this article did a pretty good job of staying on point and communicating the study fairly clearly, but I still see a lot of comments talking about implanting false memories into people, Total Recall or Inception style. That's why I tried to point out that Tonegawa's study didn't invent a memory, it confounded…

ChR2 expression was controlled by activation of neurons when the mouse was off of a drug (doxycycline). This way, the context A cells are labelled by putting the animal off of Dox while in the A context, and continuing the drug to stop labelling in other contexts.

In this study, the mouse is now afraid of an environment in which it never received pain, and would therefore not associate pain with it. By artificially activating the neurons associated with the pain-free environment in a new context with a foot shock, a fear response is now elicited the original context where no…

Neuroscientist here to make a few minor corrections and clarifications. Engrams are considered to be the molecular basis of a memory within neurons, not the collection of neurons involved (hence the phrase in the abstract "memory engram-bearing cells" as opposed to "engram cells).
