Harpoon Impales Brain-Patient Survives.
Harpoon Impaled Brain ‘A teenager in south Florida survived being shot in the head with a fishing spear.
Yasser Lopez, 16, was fishing with a friend when the weapon went off as the pair were loading equipment onto their boat.
The spear entered just above his right eye and penetrated through his brain to the back of his skull.
The teenager was airlifted to a Miami-area hospital where doctors spent three-hours removing the spear with the aid of a high-speed drill
The medical team revealed that Lopez had been awake and interacting with the emergency team when he arrived at the hospital, which indicated to the doctors that he could survive the ordeal as they planned the surgery.
Miraculously, no vital brain structures were damaged by the harpoon.
Following surgery he could communicate in short sentences with hospital staff but he had no recollection of the accident.

Google Robot Car-Video
Story:
Mountain View – Automated cars are being driven down California’s fabled Highway 1. Seven test cars, six modified Toyota Priuses and one Audi TT, have been driven thousands of miles without the direct control of a driver as part of a little known project led by Google.Is this legal? Google thinks so. A careful reading of the California motor vehicle regulations indicates as long as a human driver is present at all times and ready to override the computer to take immediate control, these experimental automated cars are legal. Still, Google has hired more than a dozen drivers with impeccable driving records to sit behind the wheel, ready to take over if needed. This can be done as easily and quickly as one disengages a cruise control. Have they been involved in any accidents? Well, yes. One. While stopped at a traffic light, one Google automated car was rear-ended. Score one for the robots.Read more: http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/298746#ixzz11ykh2f74

Can violence be?
All living beings are endowed with compassion , excepting when threatened with life in an act of survival.Other than this, living beings are not prone to violence.
Unfortunately man has infected himself desire for Women,Gold and Land.This is acquired habit and can be shrugged off if we have determination and practice compassion .After all we are born with nothing and we take nothing with us either.
Tall order this may sound,Mahatma Gandhi was an example.
Story:
I nominate taking dehumanization seriously as a key idea for the 21st century. Let me explain. There is a strange paradox at the heart of human nature. We humans are the most sociable creatures on earth, with a remarkable ability to cooperate with one another. This, combined with our equally remarkable intelligence, was responsible for the birth and development of civilization, and therefore for the scientific, technological and cultural innovations that have transformed our lives over the past 10,000 years. And yet, our species also displays a more ominous side. Human beings are also creatures of unparalleled ferocity. No other animal is capable of the horrors–the wars, genocides, torture and oppression–that we have regularly visited upon our fellow human beings.This is all the more perplexing because killing does not come easily to us. In fact, in order to cooperate so effectively, our species has had to develop powerful inhibitions against committing lethal violence. This is why homicide is comparatively rare (in fact, each year far more people take their own lives than are killed in war and homicide combined).
