Life has taken Roger Gleen up and down the East Coast, and on this night the weary traveler settles into a chair in the corner of the world s busiest airport.His bags propped neatly beside him, Gleen is among a dozen or so ticketless passengers at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, folks with no destination in mind.They re Hartsfield s homeless, and like their counterparts in other major terminals, they ve successfully resisted most efforts to clear them out. We have to go sooner or later, Gleen admits. But you have people who have been coming to the airport for years. Clusters of homeless have long settled in terminals from Philadelphia to Chicago, ideal round-the-clock shelters for men an

There has been no record of any security threat posed by the handful of blanket-covered vagrants sometimes found sleeping near ticket areas and other public spaces at Hartsfield, airport spokesman John Kennedy said.Nonetheless, Hartsfield officials decided last year to join a program that trains police to identify homeless and coax them into shelters.

For the longest time, the medical community hasn ;t had any idea what to do with people who have locked-in syndrome, the condition of being completely paralyzed from head-to-toe. Sometimes doctors don ;t even know if they ;re even conscious. The answer to communicating, it turns out, is to look in their eyes. Thanks to a cutting edge piece of technology developed by researchers in Germany, these patients can now offer the outside world a yes or no based simply on the size of their pupils. It comes in the form of smart glasses that direct a camera into the patient eyes. The patient then given a question with a yes or no answer. After the question is asked a robotic voice says yes
stanley cups and then a math problem is displayed on a screen in front of them. A few moments later, the same robotic voice says no, and another math problem is presented. Pupil size is affected by thought processes, so the patient had been instructed
stanley cup to solve the math problem that came after their preferred answer. If their answer is yes, for instance, their pupils will grow larger when the math problem is displayed after the word yes. It doesn ;t even matter if they solve the problem, they just need to exert the ment
