PETA will love this, I'm sure...

I read an article today which had good news for PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals).

It seems that some U.K. scientists have printed patterns of human neurons on the silicon surface of computer chips. Edinburgh University scientists dipped the PC chips into a protein broth (yum!), and the neurons grew along their etched patterns.

So what, you say?

Well, for one thing, the technology could be used to reconstruct damaged human tissue.

And it could also reduce the need for animal testing during drug development. New drugs could be tested on computer chips instead of animals.

PETA, and animal lovers in general, should be so happy.

The stock market was pretty happy today, with the Dow rallying triple digits again with a 106+ point gain, and the Nasdaq - once again - did even better percentage-wise with a 31+ point improvement.

There were tons of nice RSVP (Rare Spike on Volume and Price) Plays today, but I'm choosing a stock with a textbook ARM (Awesome Rising Method) chart to recommend to my Premium Members this evening. It's in the suddenly very hot Stem Cell sector, and after a recent pullback, popped 20% today as part of the ARM. I think it may have lots more upside to come.
