A study funded by the National Institutes of Health - using an electro-encephalogram, a machine that records the brain\'s electrical activity - shows newborn infants are capable of a simple form of learning while they\'re asleep. The finding may one day lead to a test that can identify infants at risk for developmental disorders. The NIH National Institute of Child Health and Human Development sponsors research on development, before and after birth. The machine measured the babies brain\'s electrical activity while a video camera recorded each baby\'s facial expressions, as researchers played a tone, as a machine blew a puff of air at each sleeping infant\'s eyelids. The electroencephalogram detected changes in brain wave activity that occurred simultaneously with the tone, showing the infants had learned to associate the tone with the puff of air.
Summer may be the time for hitting the trail or rafting the gorge, but before heading out, the National Park Service is encouraging visitors to spend at least a little time planning an itinerary, negotiating routes, and researching the environs of where they\'re going. And, they have a new website to help out. The National Park Service\'s 2010 Summer Adventure trip planning website connects visitors to travel resources, events and services at national parks across the country. The website links visitors to sites of interest, lodging, upcoming events and tips to get the most out of the nation\'s parks. An interactive calendar makes it easier to search for special events by state, or by park. Last year more than 285 million people visited national parks. The website is at www- dot-nps-dot-gov.
