The way the girls' brains formed beneath the surface of their fused skulls, however, makes them beyond rare: their neural anatomy is unique, at least in the annals of recorded scientific literature. Their brain images reveal what looks like an attenuated line stretching between the two organs, a piece of anatomy their neurosurgeon, Douglas Cochrane of British Columbia Children's Hospital, has called a thalamic bridge, because he believes it links the thalamus of one girl to the thalamus of her sister. The thalamus is a kind of switchboard, a two-lobed organ that filters most sensory input and has long been thought to be essential in the neural loops that create consciousness. Because the thalamus functions as a relay station, the girls' doctors believe it is entirely possible that the sensory input that one girl receives could somehow cross that bridge into the brain of the other.

In one study, a German professor of psychosomatics gave a lecture that included, in the first half, a series of what might be called itchy slides, showing fleas, lice, people scratching, and the like, and, in the second half, more benign slides, with pictures of soft down, baby skin, bathers.

START punching fear in the Face and escape average @jonacuff

4:03 AM Tukiyooo 0

I'm wrestling with a book right now. Andre the Giant and Hulk Hogan, old fashioned smack down wrestling. I heard <a href="http://www.jonacuff.com/blog/" target="_blank">Jon Acuff </a> this past week and picked up his new book <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1937077594/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=1937077594&linkCode=as2&tag=httpwwwbrighc-20" id="static_txt_preview" style="background-color: white; color: #996633; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Start: Punch Fear in the Face, Escape Average and Do Work that Matters</a>. The questions in the back and questions on every page have me a bit uncomfortable but in a way that I need.<br /><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; text-align: right;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTo10forsDxsh8GYpi071uobbdcOYzDinpKSJmIEyWQI3gfYncaJv2MW_yiMy5iQFD8ogolNve1_0loHQYHPpxDhw_1azXlc_KbjHJAFh-RgD1AvD1JUeq3DNtZYCqaMwEiPKKDMyB8jav/s1600/bigstock-Words-On-Stones-5269230.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="231" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTo10forsDxsh8GYpi071uobbdcOYzDinpKSJmIEyWQI3gfYncaJv2MW_yiMy5iQFD8ogolNve1_0loHQYHPpxDhw_1azXlc_KbjHJAFh-RgD1AvD1JUeq3DNtZYCqaMwEiPKKDMyB8jav/s320/bigstock-Words-On-Stones-5269230.jpg" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">How do you focus your time?<br />How do you work on what matters?<br />How do you overcome your fears?<br />This is all in <a class="g-profile" href="http://plus.google.com/105621609679680229778" target="_blank">+Jon Acuff</a> 's<br />book "START" which I highly recommend.</td></tr></tbody></table><br />I have a lot of  purpose in my life - I'm a teacher, after all. But fears, like the mermaids & kelp around Harry Potter's legs as he dove into the lake to save his friend, those fears can pull me down.<br /><h2>Punch fear in the face.</h2>Fears that have told me to please people so maybe, they'll like me. Fears that grew out of quite a few years of childhood when no one wanted to be my friend. When I became more attractive, people wanted to be my friend. Brains didn't matter, attractiveness was all that did. Now that I'm getting older, I'm finding those fears returning,<br /><blockquote class="tr_bq">"You're not beautiful any more, no one will like you." -or-</blockquote><blockquote class="tr_bq">"If you can't look like a model, no one is going to want you to speak for them anymore." </blockquote>The desire to please people and be liked is a dangerous path to self-hatred because there are some people who will never like you or me. They will not be happy until we self destruct or die and do we really want to go to that length to please them?<br /><br /><h3>Critics Math</h3>Jon makes the point in the book to beware of critics math: 1 criticism + 1,000 compliments = 1 criticism. Most of us, all we see is the criticism and that is unhealthy.<br /><br /><h2>Escape Average.</h2>It is the end of the school year.<br /><br /><b>Hyperventilation hyperdrive </b>- if you could picture a woman in a space suit trying to dock a space ship with 1,000 screaming children on board while coming out of light speed and hyperventilating at the same time -- that is what the end of the school year is like. <br /><br />I've let my weight slide right back on up. Sure, I've got an exceptionally hard work load, but I do have a life to live. I'm settling in too many places in my life in the land of average and it is time to pack my bags and go. To do this, I have to deal with my fears of not being liked. Learn to say no, and edit my life to include the most impactful areas... and START on the journey.<br /><br />I don't want to stay or be average in any area of my life but wallow there far too long. I love the activities at the end of the book that help you work through this.<br /><h2>Do work that matters.</h2>So much matters to teachers. Every single precious baby matters. Every child. Every parent. They are human beings and they are IMPORTANT. I want to teach the children and encourage the parents to parent well and love their kids even when those kids aren't perfect. These are important things.<br /><br />But for me, the question is -- what is the work that matters that I was made to do? Can I cull out things that don't matter so much or work that isn't adjacent to the land of purpose for me?<br /><br />Can I actually learn to say no?<br /><h2>Questions & Actions</h2>The most purposeful people don't get there by accident. They question everything. They question their lives and find answers. They take time for introspection. They self-examine.<br /><br />But the purposeful people I know also act upon these answers. They START.<br /><br />I highly recommend this book if you're ready to get serious about living your life with purpose.

Dillingers

My sister chose Dillingers again for dinner on Saturday night<br />(what a shock - not!). We went there about 6pm with no reservation and would you believe they were practically full.  Luckily they were able to squeeze us in at a tiny overflow counter at the bottom of the restaurant.<br /><br />Here's something that I only discovered during the week. "Mint" which was one of Dublin's few Michelin starred restaurants was in the spot where Dillingers is now.  Ran by Chef Dylan McGrath, Mint was featured on RTE Television in a one off programme. There was a huge outcry about the treatment of the staff in the kitchen by the head chef.<br /><br />But back to the other night, Amy had the chilli with a vodka and diet coke.  Her chilli was good but she said the corn bread was too dry - perhaps it was a batch from the day before.<br /><br />I had a special of 3 lamb patties on flatbread with a spicy sauce and also a yoghurt dressing. It was delicious along with a glass of merlot.   Afterwards, we went to Birchalls for one drink.  I should also mention that we saw Boyzone's former manager, Louis Walsh,  in the closing down sale of "Laser Discs".       We were home and back in the hot tub by 9pm.  <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJaM1UpJ-Rq9RstBLj73VFj8IaabpoVLDgk1osq1N4uvBMQwDoJOSMdcKMnAIaWAM8xfzBSIJRs5ztGO9VNSNBlAWfaoHiaM8SXKcMpcB1fH-7vgSBPr8ZgylO7waTn7yeBbya8iKZIeVt/s640/blogger-image--694631869.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJaM1UpJ-Rq9RstBLj73VFj8IaabpoVLDgk1osq1N4uvBMQwDoJOSMdcKMnAIaWAM8xfzBSIJRs5ztGO9VNSNBlAWfaoHiaM8SXKcMpcB1fH-7vgSBPr8ZgylO7waTn7yeBbya8iKZIeVt/s640/blogger-image--694631869.jpg" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeny7DObkgMYpchk27qTyHboMzP_eme9elrMiyrZdtnfa2eS7cCctzfUs0iezvRgH-2rCCDsLR_A2RlSuvm_UUMvqCGxjxWmzdHVZrl9Hj3UYoYMl8lMYUPeh1waoBbqL_32TXU_xbCeB1/s640/blogger-image-2101724272.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeny7DObkgMYpchk27qTyHboMzP_eme9elrMiyrZdtnfa2eS7cCctzfUs0iezvRgH-2rCCDsLR_A2RlSuvm_UUMvqCGxjxWmzdHVZrl9Hj3UYoYMl8lMYUPeh1waoBbqL_32TXU_xbCeB1/s640/blogger-image-2101724272.jpg" /></a></div>
