A Brain Scientist With A 'Stroke Of Insight'
Jill Bolte Taylor was in her late 30s when a blood vessel exploded in her brain.
The irony? Taylor is a neurological researcher.
While a stroke typically leaves devastating effects in the body — and oftentimes leads to death — Taylor has made a complete recovery. She says the experience provided unexpected wisdom.

لطفا تلفن ما را درست کنید . خط روی خط می افتد و دختر همسایه با دوستش در مورد خودارضایی صحبت می کنند ـ۶۷ کلیک
البته من خجالت می کشم که به مخابرات اطلاع دهم. در ضمن وقتی به صحبت آنها گوش می کنم من هم مجبور می شوم که بعضی شب ها خود ارضایی کنم. به خدا راست می گویم و گناهش هم به گردن شماست. لطفا همه تلفن ها را درست کنید تا خط روی خط نیفتد. خانه ما یک آپارتمان است و شاید چند نفر مرد تجاوز کار هم صحبت های آن دختر را بشنوند و به او تجاوز کنند. حتی یک بار هم می خواستم که به منزل مادرم زنگ بزنم که دیدم دختر همسایه دارد به دوستش می گوید که اندام تناسلی اش را با روغن بزند و ملش دهد. شاید اگر کارمندان شما هم برای درست کردن تلفن بیایند میل جنسی شان تحریک شود. من یک دختر آبرودار هستم و تا بحال خود ارضایی نکرده بودم. تو رو خدا اگر کارمند زن بفرستید تا این تلفن را درست کنند بهتر می شود. تو رو خدا تلفن آنها را قطع نکنید. چون من آن دختر را می شناسم و دختر خوبی است. نمی دانم چرا به دوستش از این کار ها یاد می دهد. فقط کاری کنید تا من دیگر تلفن را که بر می دارم فقط صدای بوق آزاد بشنوم و صدای آخ اوخ نشنوم. اگر درست کردن تمام تلفن های شهر براتون سخت هست در اینجا بگویید تا بهتون بگم خونمون در کدوم محله هست و اول تلفن های محله ما رو درست کنید. منتظرم

John Mellencamp, The Modern Mortal
Fresh Air from WHYY, March 31, 2009 - Long a standout purveyor of rootsy, direct "heartland" rock, John Mellencamp recently returned with a new album that finds him on a folksy, pessimistic streak.
Life, Death, Love and Freedom is what Mellencamp calls a collection of "modern electric folk songs," on which he muses largely on mortality (his own) and impending trouble (in the wider world).

Michael Schaffer: America's Going To The Dogs
Fresh Air from WHYY, April 1, 2009 · "Pet fashion shows, Chihuahua social networking, veterinary antidepressants [and] ambulance-chasing animal lawyers" are just the tip of what Philadelphia-based journalist Michael Schaffer says is a kind of pet-obsession iceberg in the lives of the American middle class.
In his new book One Nation Under Dog, Schaffer takes a close look at the $43 billion industry that's grown to help enable that obsession, explaining how that booming market reflects our evolving ideas of consumerism, family, politics and domesticity.
