Give students the same interest rates on loans as the big banks

Give students the same interest rates on loans as the big banks:

I just signed a petition to The United States House of Representatives and The United States Senate: Wall Street banks – the ones that wrecked our economy – should not be getting a better interest rate on their government loans than young people trying to go to college.

8 Successful Entrepreneurs Give Their Younger Selves Lessons They Wish They’d Known Then

Tim Westergren, the founder and Chief Strategy Officer at Pandora:

“Be sure to ‘notice’ ideas when you have them. Stop. Take the time to consider them seriously. And if your gut tells you they’re compelling, be fearless in their pursuit,” Westergren said. Nothing is more haunting than thinking, ‘I wish I had…’”

Bone Formation

Thu, 09 May 2013 12:56:00 -0400

The process in which bone is able to inhibit resorption and increase formation is initiated by a process called mechanotransduction. This is an extremely complex process involving numerous mechanisms working intimately together to create a cellular response from a biophysical one. This biophysical force is generated by external mechanical stressors— via weight-baring movement— resulting in bone deformation. This bone deformation typically takes place three ways: by a bending, sheering or compression force. A bending force will create a complimentary compression and tension stress relative to the direction of force. When compressed, the bone will undergo a biaxial strain in which it decreases in size vertically, however, expands horizontally—much like squeezing a marshmallow. Although bone responds differently to both forces, they each create a fluid disturbance within the bone cortex . This fluid disturbance creates a sheer stress on osteocytes— cells located within the bone— which then elicit the networking activity of cellular responsible needed to make osteoblasts. Osteoblasts are essentially what is responsible for bone formation; it does so by producing the bone matrix which then gets mineralized.

Here is a brief video animating the involved process responsible for bone homeostasis.
