Man Successfully Controls 2 Prosthetic Arms With Just His Thoughts
A Colorado man can now control two prosthetic arms with his mind.
Les Baugh lost both his arms in an electrical accident 40 years ago. But with the help Johns Hopkins University’s Applied Physics Laboratory and DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency), he’s able to control a set of Modular Prosthetic Limbs with his nerves. All he has to do is think about moving his arms, and they move.
Nothing is permanently attached to him; Baugh wears what is called a “socket,” which connects the prosthetics to his body. The researchers measured the way his muscles and nerves react when Baugh thinks about moving his arms. Then, when he thinks about moving his arms and hands in a certain way, the prosthetics move.
Baugh is the first bilateral shoulder-level amputee to wear two Modular Prosthetic Limbs at once, according to the researchers. He’s spending a lot of time practicing different tasks.
"Maybe I’ll be able to — for once — be able to put change in a pop machine and get the pop out of it," Baugh said in a video about the breakthrough. "Simple things like that that most people never think of." He can only use the arms in the lab for now, but someday he will have two of his own.
"I think we’re just getting started at this point. It’s like the early days of the Internet," Mike McLoughlin, the program manager at Johns Hopkins’ Revolutionizing Prosthetics, said in the video. “There’s just a tremendous amount of potential ahead of us, and we just started down this road. I think the next five, 10 years are going to bring some really phenomenal advancements.”

The 39 most important feminist moments in 2014
In 1998, TIME Magazine declared feminism dead. Nearly 15 years later, it wondered if instead, perhaps feminism should be banned. Constantly on attack from all sides, feminism has spent the past few decades proving its importance and relevance over and over and over again. If there’s one thing history has taught us, it’s that the backlash against feminism will always be a measure of our success. That’s the thing with progress — it is far too often perceived as a threat by those who benefit from the status quo.
Indeed, as we head into December, it’s clear that the year 2014 was a historic one for feminism. Across the Internet and the world, women stood up for their rights, challenged stereotypes, fought for recognition and took control of the dialogue.
The following is a list of some of the most iconic feminist moments this year.
I think we all get to a certain age when we feel the same
Dog Day Afternoon (1975) dir. Sidney Lumet
During production, Al Pacino reportedly only slept a couple hours a night, ate sparingly, and would sometimes take cold showers; this was in order to emphasize Sonny’s disheveled, exhausted and yet wired appearance. (x)
The kinesin motor protein was a real scene stealer in The Inner Life of the Cell, although it wasn’t even in the original treatment for the short. The original plan was to omit the motor protein in the vesicle shots, but when I saw Graham Johnson’s animation of the way a kinesin takes a step from April 2000, I secretly went ahead and modeled one of my own, animated a walk cycle for it, and added it into the vesicle shot. www.artofthecell.com #kinesin #biology #video #animation #gif #medical
