Wild Green Recipes: Dandelion Currant Pasta | SierraActivist

Dandelion greensUrban foraging?was once the realm of hard-core locavores. Not anymore.?Some farmers' markets now offer wild greens (a.k.a. edible weeds) and foraging groups abound. If you plan?to forage?for your wild greens, make sure you're picking what you think you're picking, as many edible weeds have toxic look-alikes.

This week, we'll show you how to prepare your wild greens.

Recipe #1: Dandelion Currant Pasta

Dandelions are everywhere, and they're notoriously difficult to eradicate. Instead of fighting them, harvest the the greens while they're young (they get bitter once they flower) and cook them up in this nutritious pasta dish! Up the green (and tasty) factor of your meal by pairing it with one of these eco-friendly wines.

Serves 4

Ingredients:

6 oz thick pasta (linguine and farfalle both work well)

4 tbsp olive oil

As much garlic as you can stand (at least 1 clove per person)

? cup currants

? cup pine nuts

3 tablespoons lemon juice

2 cups cleaned young dandelions leaves

Directions:

Start cooking the pasta in a medium sauce pan. When the pasta has about 5 minutes left to cook, start saut?ing the garlic and olive oil in a large saucepan.?

Scientists set to reveal Hawking's 'brain hack'

Ted S. Warren / AP

To produce the words for text or speech, British physicist Stephen Hawking currently uses an infrared sensor mounted on his eyeglasses, visible here during an appearance this month in Seattle. The sensor picks up twitches from his cheek, which are translated into the desired letters or words. Hawking and neuroscientist Philip Low are experimenting with a system that can translate brain waves directly into text and speech.

By Alan Boyle

After months of tweaking, researchers are finally ready to show off a high-tech headband that can translate Stephen Hawking's brain waves into speech?? providing what could eventually become an easier avenue for the paralyzed British physicist and many others to share their deep thoughts.

The system, developed by San Diego-based NeuroVigil and known as iBrain, uses a head-mounted receiver the size of a matchbox to pick up different types of brain waves. iBrain employs a computer algorithm called SPEARS to analyze the brain emanations and encode them for a text-based speech reader. Philip Low, NeuroVigil's founder, chairman and CEO, is to present the latest results from his work with Hawking on July 7 at a Cambridge conference on consciousness.


"I haven't discussed doing a demonstration with Stephen, but we could do that, of course," Low told me today. During the conference, Low will be showing video clips of Hawking using the iBrain to communicate.

For decades, Hawking has been coping with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a degenerative nerve disease that has left the theoretical physicist confined to a wheelchair and unable to move even his fingers. To write or speak, he currently uses an infrared sensor system mounted on his eyeglasses: His cheek twitches are read by the sensor to control a wheelchair-mounted computer system that slowly encodes the patterns of those twitches. It can take a half-hour for Hawking to twitch out a couple of sentences in response to a question.

In an abstract prepared for next month's presentation, Low and Hawking describe how they worked out their technique for the iBrain system. Hawking (who is described as a "high-functioning 70-year-old ALS patient" in the abstract) was told to try moving one of his hands or feet ? for example, flexing his foot or scrunching his hand into a ball. The limbs didn't move, of course, but just thinking about trying to move them generated readable brain-wave patterns.

"The subject's brain activity demonstrated distinct broad-spectrum pulses extending to the gamma and ultra-high gamma ranges," the researchers wrote. "Such pulses were present in the absence of actual movement, and absent when the subject was not attempting motion."

The abstract said Hawking's brain also buzzed with alpha brain waves when he closed his eyes, as expected.?Alpha waves are associated with wakeful relaxation, and are probably familiar to anyone who's undergone biofeedback training. Gamma waves, in contrast, are associated with increased attention?? and in the past have been linked to?activities ranging from running to learning.

Lots of possibilities
The fact that Hawking's brain signals could be read reliably is a good sign, not only for one of the world's best-known scientists but for hundreds of thousands of others around the world.?Low and Hawking say their work "opens the possibility to link intended movements to a library of words and convert them into speech, thus providing ALS sufferers with communication tools more dependent on the brain than on the body."

Low told me that the brainwave-reading device could be used to control prosthetic devices "to give ALS sufferers mobility"?? sort of like a real-life version of the Stephen Hawking robotic exoskeleton proposed in an Onion parody 15 years ago.

The iBrain device could have other applications, such as diagnosing sleep apnea, studying autism and monitoring other brain conditions. It's already been used in a clinical trial to monitor the effects of experimental drugs on brain activity. The U.S. military is also looking into how the device can help treat traumatic brain injury and post-traumatic stress disorder, which are big issues for combat veterans. Direct brain-to-speech communication, however, represents the highest-profile application, particularly when Stephen Hawking is involved.

"We'd like to find a way to bypass his body, pretty much hack his brain," The Telegraph quoted Low as saying.

The key question for Hawking is whether iBrain represents an improvement over the system he currently has. Back in April, the professor told The New York Times?that the project hadn't quite reached that point. "At the moment I think my cheek switch is faster ... but should the position change I will try Philip Low's system," he wrote in an email sent by an assistant.

In that quote, Low said Hawking was talking about brain-computer interfaces in general, rather than specifically about iBrain. "What we are seeing is in fact an immediate response, so the question is going to be to productize this, so that he can communicate reliably should he lose control of his cheek muscles," he said.

TEDMED via YouTube

Neuroscientist Philip Low (at right) demonstrates how the iBrain device can send brain-wave readings to a cellphone with an subject who's wearing the headband (at left) during a TEDMED 2009 presentation. Click on the image to watch the YouTube clip.

Personal quest
Low said the iBrain project was already moving on to Version 2.0, and the iBrain 3 device is due to be built next year. "That will be about the size of a U.S. quarter," he told me. "People will be able to check their brain activity much like you or I can check our blood pressure."

The 32-year-old, Vienna-born researcher's company has come a long way since its founding, which Low says he initially financed by putting $240,000 on his credit card. Someday, he hopes brain-monitoring systems will be used to pick up the signs of neurological problems early enough to do something about them. For Low, this is not just business. It's personal.

"I would have loved to see this 20 years ago, when my father suffered from a side effect of a commonly used sleep drug," he told me. "He threatened someone with a weapon ... a gun, actually. And it destroyed our family."

His father was eventually pardoned, but it took a long time to put everything back together. That experience led Low to look into the neurological basis of sleep, including experiments with bird brains. That was what led him to come up with the SPEARS algorithm in the first place.

"It's very ironic that an algorithm I initially developed to analyze the brain patterns of birds has found its way to dealing with Stephen Hawking's brain patterns, the U.S. military and autistic children," he told me.?

Keio University's Kinectbased Haptic VR system lets you roll flat your own face

A research team at Keio University has built a fun haptic virtual reality system that enables you to manipulate pictures with a rolling pin. A vertically mounted Kinect takes a 3D image that is then displayed on the projection surface. Using the rolling pin, the image can be rolled over and flattened as if it was dough -- with a series of motor cranks inside the implement to replicate the necessary feedback so you can feel what it'd be like to iron out your own face. It's been designed as a modern-day update to the penny-squashing machines you found in theme parks, except with slightly more grotesqueness. You can watch the face-mashing in glorious color after the break.

Social media in health care create risks, benefits | Health and Fitness


On Twitter, 10,000 people are listening to Jen Gunter. Sexual health, shoes and ?The Hunger Games? are the subjects of just a few of the 36,500 tweets crafted by the obstetrician-gynecologist at Kaiser Permanente in San Francisco.

Gunter?s social-media presence also includes a blog, which she uses to write about birth control and weight loss; a professional Facebook page; another Facebook account for friends; Instagram; and Tumblr.

Gunter has plenty to say and plenty of ways to say it, but when patients she?s never met ask for medical advice online, she has just one thing to say: ?No.?

?You can?t have any kind of dialogue that way,? said Gunter, who is also director of pelvic pain and vulvovaginal disorders for Kaiser in San Francisco. ?You don?t know what you?re getting into.?

Gunter is firm on this policy, but the lines appear less clear for the increasing number of doctors who are talking to their patients about medical concerns on social networks. Physicians are adding patients as friends on Facebook and discussing their private health issues in the open. And while getting a wall post on Facebook from your doctor may seem innocuous, such acts can lead to awkward situations, privacy violations or wrong information, say experts.

?A lot of stuff is people sharing too much information that should either be left confidential, or in some cases information that shouldn?t be shared because it?s not true,? said Ryan Greysen, assistant clinical professor of medicine at UCSF.

Improper behavior

In a recent study of 48 state medical boards, which license and discipline doctors, Greysen found that 44 of them have received reports of violations of online professionalism. Violations included improper contact with patients, inappropriately giving diagnoses and misrepresentation of one?s credentials.

Disciplinary measures have ranged from limiting or suspending physicians? licenses to revoking them, the UCSF study found.

In one instance, a physician asked one of his patients for a date through an online dating website.

Another physician, on his blog, called a patient ?lazy? and ?ignorant? because she had made several visits to the emergency room after failing to monitor her sugar levels. In yet another case, a medical student filmed a doctor inserting a chest tube into a patient, whose face was clearly visible, and posted the footage on YouTube.

The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act sets boundaries on the ways health care providers use and disclose information that identifies patients. That includes a patient?s health condition, birth date and even the existence of enrollment with a provider.

In California, a pair of laws since 2009 has authorized the state to investigate and fine medical facilities for health information privacy breaches. Those laws resulted from a string of widely publicized security violations at UCLA, where employees looked at celebrities? medical records.

So far, the state Department of Public Health has issued 18 fines worth $2.2 million to medical facilities. The agency received reports of about 2,500 violations last year. The department does not separately track online violations.

?Lapse in judgment?

Nearly 90 percent of physicians use a social-media website for personal use, and 67 percent use it professionally, according to a survey of 4,000 physicians by QuantiaMD, an online forum for doctors.

?My hunch is that in the majority of cases, people had a lapse in judgment about something, but because it?s online, the reach of these online behaviors is so much greater,? said Greysen, who maintains a professional Facebook page and tweets about social media and medicine. ?The impact can be a lot broader and faster because of the speed at which information travels.?

Health care providers need to be especially aware of the risk as they turn to keeping patients? records on electronic databases, said Anthony Wright, executive director of Health Access California, a patient advocacy group.

?We are entering into a world where we need to have a balance between a legitimate desire for seamlessness and sharing of information and data collection,? he said, ?with strong privacy guarantees and guidelines.?

Guiding principles

This spring, the Federation of State Medical Boards, which oversees the groups that license doctors, established guidelines for physicians? use of social-networking sites. The group recommends that doctors interact with patients online only when discussing medical treatment in a professional context, and avoid doing so on personal social-media sites. In fact, doctors are encouraged to set up separate professional and private accounts.

In addition, the group said, physicians may write online about their experiences as health professionals, but should also reveal their conflicts of interest and credentials.

For doctors who want to chat about work online, they may find an outlet in Doximity, a new social-networking site in San Mateo.

Begun in spring 2011, the site is a confidential forum that allows verified physicians to discuss research and talk about medical cases, which the law permits as long as the conversation is confined to health professionals. So far, Doximity has drawn more than 567,000 physicians from 87 specialties nationwide.

?We think there?s a need for someone to be the hospital, the place where doctors and health care professionals can have their discussions,? said Jeff Tangney, Doximity?s chief executive officer. ?Unfortunately, that can?t be LinkedIn and Facebook for patient privacy reasons.?

That said, more discussions lead to more problems solved, Tangney said. ?We see cases solved all the time on the network,? he said.

Online legitimacy

Other forms of electronic communication between physicians and patients have emerged from the health care industry. In 2004, Kaiser Permanente started HealthConnect, a secure electronic database that lets patients view their health records and e-mail questions to doctors.

Those patients include Susan Benz, 53, an educational administrator in Oakland, and her husband and daughter, all of whom frequently use the system.

Before HealthConnect, Benz said, ?It was a lot of phone tag. I?ve always been a busy working mom, and with kids? appointments and family appointments, it was frustrating.?

Now, Benz said, she e-mails her doctor with questions about everything from menopause to dry skin and within a day receives advice or is told to make an appointment. Benz has cut her annual face-to-face visits from 10 to three.

Around 80,000 Kaiser members send their doctors 850,000 e-mails through HealthConnect each month, according to the company. Patients are not billed extra for the service because the time doctors spend answering questions is built into their daily schedules, said Joe Fragola, a Kaiser spokesman.

Benz has Facebook, but says she would never use it to pose a health problem to her physician. She doesn?t need to.

?To go from the old world of pen and paper and phone calls and getting appointments to being able to do it all on e-mail and through smart phone,? she said, ?it?s been fabulous.?

The iPhone Blog: Mutant Storm for iPad review

Mutant Storm was released on the iPad last week, offering a classic arcade shooter experience complete with appropriately neon graphics. The game adds a few twists to the old formula though, including some rich 3D models and interesting difficulty scaling mechanism.

You take control of a ship trying to wipe out an alien menace. You have unlimited ammunition with which to destroy a set number of waves in each level. ?Mutant Storm adopts the standard dual-joystick layout: tapping and dragging on one side determines the direction of your ship's movement, while the other determines the direction of your firing. Scores are generated based on how quickly you clear the map. You can earn points multipliers (belts) after reaching certain kill counts, as well as bonuses at the end of a level for leaving friendly cube structures intact.

In adventure mode you only get three lives, so you have to ?be diligent about avoiding collision and enemy projectiles while conducting your symphony of destruction. Though enemies will occasionally drop limited-time power-ups, you'll have to really make them count; you are only granted waypoints every ten levels, so if you run out of lives on level 19, you have to start again from 10. This can create a steep difficulty curve very quickly but can be counterbalanced by a martial arts-inspired belt-based difficulty level system.

You start off with white belt, and as you rack up kills, you fill up a bar until you advance to the next difficulty level. If you die, you drop down a rank, but at least you can start at your highest rank for future levels if you think can handle it. If things get too rough, you can drop down to a lower belt, but of course you'll also earn fewer points. There is a slightly more forgiving game mode called Tally, where you simply try to beat your previous high score on any given level without the pressure of having to stay alive for long.

Though Mutant Storm borrows heavily from the old-school top-down perspective, the game is far from 2D. In addition to levels being populated by an array of richly-modeled and dynamically-lit enemies, Mutant Storm shifts camera angles regularly to great dramatic effect. I almost wish that tilting the iPad would do something with the camera perspective, but that might get disorienting. The graphics are fully optimized for the new iPad's Retina display and can apparently hold a steady 60 frames per second on any model. The only real disappointment I had in the visuals were in the menus and user interface; everything on that front was fairly basic and bland.

There's a limited amount of ship customization to mix things up. You have access to four different chassis and a dozen color schemes, but they don't amount to much amid the chaos of battle. On that note, there aren't any unlocks besides getting to the next level, and as such, little sense of progression beyond getting your next high score. Maybe I'm addicted to leveling up, but it feels like there needs to some kind of persistent rewards to keep me coming back, otherwise you're just living stage-to-stage. Though that kind of format is perfect if you're looking for something light, fast, and non-committal, Mutant Storm isn't available on the iPhone right now, which is exactly where you would want to play that style.

The good

  • Interesting use of camera angles
  • Classic, fast-paced action
  • Bright, retro-inspired graphics

The bad

  • Difficulty curve ramps up quickly
  • Repetitive gameplay
  • iPad only

The conclusion

Mutant Storm offers fast and furious arcade action to the iPad, while bringing some sharp, brilliant graphics to the table. The difficulty curve can be steep, though there's a finely-graded system for ramping difficulty up and down in a relatively sensible way. If you're currently looking for a classic shooting game, Mutant Storm is a steal at $2.99, but that price is set to balloon once the launch sale wraps up. Pick it up now!

94% Marley

Director Kevin MacDonald and co-producer Ziggy Marley bring forth the most definitive look back at the life of Bob Marley, in the new documentary "Marley". From the formation of "The Wailers" and the comings and goings of different members of the band (including Peter Tosh and Jimmy Cliff), to Marley's dealings in Rastafarian and how it bled into his Reggae music; and also from his controversial lifestyle punctuated by being a "womanizer" (eleven children from seven different women) to his humanitarian nature, this in-depth (two and a half hour) documentary will immensely satisfy fan and novice alike. I, like many other younger American non-Rasta's, had grown up knowing Bob Marley for his more commercially catchy hits and from his countless depictions on a multitude of shirts worn by numerous Bay Area potheads. But, being a novice, going into this film I wasn't particularly interested in seeing a two and a half hour movie about the life and times Bob Marley. A story I thought I knew, and had heard, countless times before. But that notion changed rather abruptly within the first few minutes of this movie. And by the end, due to the brilliant investigative journalistic nature of MacDonald which elevates "Marley" from an average movie to a MUST SEE documentary, audiences who see this film will walk out with an in-depth appreciation for the man who wrote some of the most poetic and revolutionary lyrics in music history. "Marley" is the no holds barred dissection of a particular subject (or subject matter) which fans of great documentaries will crave (and in fact, was nowhere to be found in the films of 2011). And for a documentary that was originally supposed to be directed by Martin Scorsese, after seeing what MacDonald has accomplished here, it would be hard to imagine "Marley" being more perfectly executed in anybody else's hands. What truly sets "Marley" apart from other bio-documentaries and A&E specials is how, in a very PBS way, MacDonald uses a seemingly endless amount of archival footage, as well as interviews with almost everybody (still alive) who had anything to do with Marley's upbringing and his life as a world famous musician, as the narration. It was quite apparent that MacDonald had full access to any and all information he wanted, and as far as I could see, he thankfully took complete advantage of this fact. As audiences, we hear from Marley's family and peers about how as a young boy he was an outcast because of his mixed-race. We also hear from notable Jamaican artists and record executives, who saw his maturation into a musician that worked to bridge the gaps, not only in Jamaica (during times of war) but nationwide as well. In this way, MacDonald enables audiences to intimately know Bob Marley on every level (get your mind out of the gutter). But all the pure information aside, what MacDonald does very well here is not creating a documentary which totally sanctifies Bob Marley, much as many movies (tributes) do when celebrities with checkered pasts die. MacDonald captures recollections of Marley from both those who loved the man and those who thought him to be nothing more than a womanizing zealot, who was sadly not as politically motivated as he should have been. Final Thought: Overall "Marley" is a brilliant example of an archetype onto how all biographical documentaries should be made. Grade "A" filmmaking, in conjunction with a larger than life subject (subject matter) is what elevates "Marley" into one of the most entertaining two and a half hour documentaries I have ever seen. If you are at all a Bob Marley fan (casual or otherwise) and if you are able to, see "Marley", any way you can, before Hollywood makes a more commercialized (legacy ruining) feature film version of his life in a few years; starring Mekhi Phifer no doubt.

Veterans find relief but fear legal troubles with medical marijuana ...

Medical marijuana legalization is a hot topic around the country, and Colorado is one of the states that is leading the nation in reforming drug laws to accommodate medical uses of marijuana. The drug has been hailed by many patients as a welcome relief to pain, nausea, and a variety of other symptoms that can come with a serious illness.

Now, veterans who have been able to access medical marijuana are saying that the drug is one of few effective treatments for their physical and mental pain when they return from war. However, possession and use of the drug is still illegal in many states, which puts veterans suffering from brain injuries and PTSD in a difficult dilemma.

The Department of Veterans Affairs has acknowledged the effectiveness of marijuana and allows patients to be treated with it at various facilities in states where it is legal. However, because most states in the country still prohibit it, veterans in many places cannot access it and VA doctors cannot recommend it.

Even veterans living in states with legalized medical marijuana often fear the repercussions under federal law, as the state and federal drug enforcement officers continue to act in opposition to each other. Many veterans fear using the treatment method because it could lead to a loss of other important government benefits or even criminal drug charges. Distrust of government programs and uncertainty about interdepartmental disclosures also lead to confusion for veterans, who are told to report their use of medical marijuana to VA doctors but are often afraid.

Doctors are concerned about the low rates of reporting because of potential interactions between the marijuana and other medications.
