Looking At : Jul 14, 2013

Binoculars at Echo Point
Echo Point, Blue Mountains.




During the past week we've discussed a number of great links; on Google+, Twitter, Facebook and so on. Here are a few of my favourites.


  • Exercise May Change How Fat is Stored : Very interesting research from Lund University, looking at the role exercise plays in gene expression (turning genes on and off).

  • Cambridge Parkour POV : As we noted in the discussion the other day (the Gymchat on Google Glass and Training ), we'll undoubtedly see a lot more videos like this one. Fantastic.

  • +Pool, Tile by Tile : Swimming in New York's East River? Yep.

  • The AlterG Bionic Leg : Ever broken your leg, injured your knee or done anything else to make one leg stronger than the other? Perhaps it's time for one of these.


We also noted a brilliant tissue engineering breakthrough that brings nerve repair an awful lot closer, looked at a very promising way to tackle a number of medical conditions and a whole lot more. Join the discussion in the Straight to the Bar Community on Google+.
