From the department of “we are living in a sci-fi movie”, here’s a video of a bionic arm that uses “fluidic muscles”.
The original slashdot article is here.
See if you can hear the Starcraft sound effect at the beginning and end of the video… (only for the truly obsessed)

Using Yahoo Pipes, we combined neuro/ai/cog-related RSS feeds from many sources into one, sometimes filtering along the way so as to minimize offtopic posts:
Ultimate neurodudes RSS feed (relatively inclusive version)
Feeds are periodically added and subtracted, but hopefully reflects the blogrolls below (but doesn't yet -- it's still under construction), except for those feeds which Yahoo Pipes had trouble processing, a list of which can be seen by checking the Pipe page.
Bayle's working on Google Reader bundles for neuroscience journals, and other neuro feeds. Like the Ultimate Neurodudes Feed, these are heavily under construction, and probably aren't very good yet.
Here's a neurodudes' friend feed on Twitter, which follows a bunch of people who often post interesting material.
