Points of Attack
A friendly reminder, about the monsters. Though I do feel that crabs are being unnecessarily victimized here; the only crime they are guilty of is occasional deliciousness. [A Life Well Wasted via Geek Tyrant via io9] -

Amazing DSI Brain Scanning Visualizes Your Mind's Inner Workings In 3D
What's that monkey thinking about when he's mushing down that banana or tossing feces at you? Well, you're looking at it—this is a map of where a macaque's thoughts live. It's made possible by new 3D visualization algorithms developed by neuroscientists at Massachusetts General Hospital and Boston which render a brain's billions of individual neuron connections in full-color 3D, with each visible strand representing several tens of thousands of the too-small-to-image neural pathways. It's all done by simply applying new processing to existing MRI scan data, and thankfully, it works on human brains too. More » -
