<description><![CDATA[I'm a sucker for christmas and all the lovely songs that come along. Some of them will even get me to tear up a bit. I don't know, they are just so upbeat and uplifting that I just can't help but to get in the mood. The only thing that tweaks me some though is I really don't want to hear them till after Thanksgiving. Other than that, I've got a lot of favorites.<br/><br/>1 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Al writes &quot;European researchers have taken a step towards replicating the functioning of the brain in silicon, creating new custom chip with the equivalent of 200,000 neurons linked up by 50 million synaptic connections. The aim of the Fast Analog Computing with Emergent Transient States (FACETS) project is to better understand how to construct massively parallel computer systems modeled on a biological brain. Unlike IBM's Blue Brain project, which involves modeling a brain in software, this approach makes it much easier to create a truly parallel computing system. The set-up also features a distributed algorithm that introduces an element of plasticity, allowing the circuit to learn and adapt. The researchers plan to connect thousands of chips to create a circuit with a billion neurons and 10^13 synapses (about a tenth of the complexity of the human brain).&quot;Read more of this story at Slashdot.<br/><br/>3 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[destinyland writes &quot;European researchers have discovered that chimpanzees have a built-in mental GPS, keeping 'a geometric mental map of their home range, moving from point to point in nearly straight lines.' Using GPS, two primatologists followed 15 chimpanzees for 217 days, and determined that the apes were 'using a mental map built around geometric coordinates.' They're not just identifying landmarks in their surroundings, and in fact, even when swinging through trees, the chimps planned out their route several trees in advance. Here's the paper in the journal Animal Behavior .&quot;Read more of this story at Slashdot.<br/><br/>4 Vote(s) ]]></description>
