      Long live Sesame Street Live (and one very persistent Elmo balloon)
      After I succumbed to the purchase of an overpriced plastic funhouse for my two-year-old, I never thought I’d get roped into any other toddler money-making schemes for at least another two six months.  I’ve already spent an exorbitant amount of money on sippy cups, and purchased a bike trailer for my husband’s bike that has been [...]

      What makes emotional memories of traumatic events so persistent?
      by Nicole Kasielke Emotional memories of traumatic life events such as accidents, war experiences or serious illnesses are stored in a particularly robust way by the brain.

Some level of consciousness means a person can still respond, in varying degrees, to stimulation. A person in a coma, however, cannot.

      Persistent depression after sports-related concussion may be linked to brain damage
      NeuroPsychiatry Reviews 2008 Mar;9(3) Male athletes with depression after a major sports-related concussion likely have changes in brain function and gray matter volume, reported researchers in the January Archives of General Psychiatry. "The results suggest that depressed mood following a concussion may reflect an underlying pathophysiology consistent with a limbic-frontal model of depression," said Jen-Kai Chen, a neuropsychology student at the Montreal Neurological Institute, McGill University, and coauthors. "Given that depression is associated with considerable functional disability, this finding has important clinical implications for the management of individuals with a cerebral concussion." More...

But Leon Cooperman wrote in an article for Fortune: "I view this market drop as a long overdue correction rather than the end of the bull market."Several months have passed, along with rounds of bank write-downs, broken M&A deals and haywire stock prices, but the founder and chairman of Omega Advisors, a hedge fund with $6 billion in assets, still believes equities should move higher.

      My Six Year Old: Persistent and Gassy
      I know I wrote about Kaleb being loving and defiant, but I should mention that he has lots of other great qualities I treasure. One especially is his persistence, a trait that didn’t come through my DNA strain. I’ve learned a lot just watching him.For example, he taught himself how to ride a bike that’s bigger than what you’d find most seven-year olds riding simply because he believed me when I said, “You’ll get it if you practice long enough.” He’s done the same with swimming, basketball, reading, chess and, yes, video games. The kid keeps pluggin’ away until he gets it. Well, he’s done it again. This week he’s been practicing and practicing and practicing. And just today he got it. That’s right, folks, Kaleb has mastered the armpit fart. *sniff* It does a mama proud.

      Using RMS to Store Persistent Data
      There are times when you will want your MIDlet to be able to store data that is persistent across multiple executions of the application. In the context of video games, for example, you may want to save the high scores, or retain the game state so that the player can continue later. In this tutorial, we will look at how to use a component of MIDP called Record Management System, or RMS, as a means of storing persistent application data. The classes and interfaces related to Record Management System can be found in the javax.microedition.rms package. Persisted data is stored in a RecordStore object. As the name implies, RecordStore objects store a collection of records. In database terminology, a RecordStore object is synonymous with a table. Each record is identified by a unique integer value, or recordId. ID values are created sequentially, with the first record having an ID of 1. An application can have multiple RecordStore objects. RecordStore objects have MIDlet Suite sco
