She had never been bowling and we thought it would be a fun family activity. This bowling alley is in Culpeper, VA. I like the fact that it is smoke free, the bumper automatically come up for Isabella and they have the ramps to help her roll the ball down the lane. She beat both Mike and I and even got a strike.

ABSTRACT
Personal Growth Series: Cracking the Neural Code: Speaking the Language of the Brain with Optics
The technological seeds of a Manhattan project-style scientific enterprise, the optical reverse-engineering of brain circuits to crack the neural code, have recently been planted at Stanford.
The brain is a high-speed dynamical system consisting of different players that are intertwined and that cannot be separately controlled using conventional methods. For this reason, until recently we have not been able to speak the language of the brain (with millisecond timescale and cell-specific resolution), and in 1979 Francis Crick called for a technology by which all neurons of just one type could be controlled, "leaving the others more or less unaltered".
Tools from the Deisseroth laboratory at Stanford over the past four years have responded to this challenge. These include optical technologies for controlling neural circuits, using precisely-targeted delivery of light energy of different colors that is captured by neurons using nanoscale protein-based antennae, resulting in controlled activity of just the targeted cell types with millisecond precision. Light is delivered by fiberoptics; while light encounters all cell types, only the desired cell type is light-sensitive and responds. Using different optogenetic probes, cells can be turned on or off with millisecond precision and in different combinations.
These tools have now been used to optically deconstruct Parkinsonian neural circuitry, setting the stage both for cracking the neural codes of normal brain function, and for re-engineering neural circuits in disease.
Speaker: Karl Deisseroth
Professor Deisseroth received his bachelor's degree from Harvard in 1992, his PhD from Stanford in 1998, and his MD from Stanford in 2000. He completed medical internship and adult psychiatry residency at Stanford, and he was board-certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology in 2006. He joined the faculty on January 1, 2005. He is the first, and so far only, practicing psychiatrist in the nation with a primary appointment in a bioengineering department.
As a bioengineer focused on neuroengineering, he has launched an effort to map neural circuit dynamics in neuropsychiatric disease, including depression and Parkinson's Disease, on the millisecond timescale. His group at Stanford has developed optical and stem-cell based neuroengineering technologies for noninvasive imaging and control of brain circuits, as they operate within living intact tissue. His work on optical control of neural circuits has launched a new field called "optogenetics", and he has published major papers in Nature and Science that have been termed "stunning" and "revolutionary" by his scientific colleagues.
Professor Deisseroth has received many major awards including the NIH Director's Pioneer Award, the Presidential Early Career Award for Science and Engineering (PECASE), the McKnight Foundation Technological Innovations in Neuroscience Award, the Larry Katz Prize in Neurobiology, the Schuetze Award in Neuroscience, the Whitehall Foundation Award, the Charles E. Culpeper Scholarship in Medical Science Award, the Klingenstein Fellowship Award and the Robert H. Ebert Clinical Scholar Award.

Boring day at C-pep park, so me and Ryan decided to make a quarter pipe session =].
*Gay as shit tagsssss:
_______________________________
Kick El toro,and 3flip down Wallenberg are in first part),and these are also best ever,it's a:Stair Section:
Corey Duffel-ollie double set 9 stairs flat 10 stairs
Gareth Stehr-ollie a 21 stairset
Josh Casper-ollie gap(15 feet high)
Jeremy Wray-ollie water tower gap(18 feet long)
Bastien Salabanzi-backside ollie down 20set
Ryan Dannettelle-bs ollie el toro(20 stairs)
Jeremy wray-bs ollie,almost 30 feet gap
Andrew reynolds-caballerial down wilshire 15
Ryan Sheckler-huge kickflip
Andrew reynolds-huge shifty flip down 12(4 block)
Lindsey Robertson-huge heelflip down wallenberg four
Grant Patterson-nollie flip down wilshire 15
Kevin Romar-amazing nollie hell down wilshire
Jeff Mikut-hardflip wilshire 15
Jimmy Carlin-hardflip down 14 stairs
Brandon Tirner-huge ss hardflip down Carlsbad
Chris Cole-bs flip down wilshire 15(I know reynolds bs flip down wallenberg 4 is biggest,but I can't find it)
Andrew Reynolds-massive fs flip down wallenberg four..
Jim Greco-ss fs flip down wilshire 15
Paul Rodriguez-ss fs heel down 14 set
All 4 360 flips down Macba:
Chris Cole-normal
Johny Layton-switchstance
Felix May-fakie(better,cleaner,stylish than Koston)
Tony Tave-nollie
Jerry Hsu-nollie backside heel down big 13 set
Bastien Salabanzi:cab flip down Barcelona's euro gap
rail section:
Bastien Salabanzi-360 flip to fs noseblunt
grant Patterson-nollie flip bs crook on hubba 9
Chris Kendall-hardflip bs lipslide down 10
Billy Marks-flip to fs lipslide down 12
Bastien Salabanzi-kickflip backlip down huge 10 set(same high rail as Wilshire,so Bastien could do down wilshire)
Eric Koston-gap flip backlip
Eric Koston-bs tailslide flip out to fakie
Healt Kirchart-bs tailslide flip out to fakie on rail 7!
Koston-360 flip to fs nosebluntslide down 8
Wade Desarmo-ss kickflip to ss fs feeble!!
Stafan Janoski-ss kickflip to ss bs crook down rail(tampa Pro 07 bestrick,everybody know,I know He do that down rail 9 in Nothink but the true!)
third best trick ever:
Andrew Reynolds-fs flip down 18
