A small water snake has developed a sneaky trick: It startles fish into swimming right into its mouth.
The tentacled snake has the trick so down pat
that after scaring the fish, the snake aims and chomps down in a
certain location where it knows the fish will soon be. The snake
doesn't even have to track its prey.
Matthew Brzica and his wife hardly noticed when the hospital took a few
drops of blood from each of their four newborn children for routine
genetic testing. But then they discovered that the state had kept the
dried blood samples ever since -- and was making them available to
scientists for medical research.
By the end of this century then, a mere 90 years from now, we'll need to have an infrastructure that runs exclusively on renewably generated electricity, biofuels, and possibly nuclear energy. That's where we're going.
Fortunately, there is more than enough available renewable energy to meet all of our needs, if we can harness it. Unfortunately, we're starting from a point at which less than 2% of the world's energy comes from renewables like wind, solar and geothermal.
This 3 DVD series proves, in medical physiology and clinical sciences, with new and old
diagnostic
technologies, that ALL vaccinations cause immediate and delayed, acute
and chronic, permanent and transient, disease and disorders that cut
across all organ systems.Tissue damages are a result of impaired blood
flow and blood
'sludging" in the microscopic vessels throughout
the circulatory system. Autism, ADHD, Suddent infant death, Gardasil,
Gulf war syndrome, specific
learning disabilities, seizures and more.

Conventional science considers space and time to be a framework in
which the drama of the universe is played out, in manifest form. The
thesis of the Reciprocal System, however, is that the universe is not a
universe of matter, but a universe of motion, one in which the
basic reality is motion, and all entities—photons, particles, atoms,
fields, forces, and all forms of energy—are merely manifestations of
motion.
In the long and seemingly futile quest to build a better roach trap,
researchers have finally identified the come-hither chemical of the
female German cockroach and produced a synthetic version that makes
males come running in less than nine seconds.
The image shows that proteins are created at connections
between brain cells when a long-term memory is
formed. Neuroscientists had suspected as much, but hadn't been able to see
it happening until now.
The experiment also revealed some surprising aspects of
memory formation, which remains a somewhat mysterious process.
Such a device will lead to a gravity sensing device able to measure the effect if any of say a post or the end of a concrete wall.
Graphite makes this possible because it is solid stack of laminated layers of graphene that naturally provide the equivalent of a wave guide for the effect.
The astonishing pace of nuclear development in China - Fuqing is just one of seven multiple reactor power plants currently being built - is part of a national plan to have 72 GWe of nuclear capacity by 2020
An American investigative journalist, who claims that swine flu strains have been engineered in two universities in the US and Canada, says they’ve been deliberately designed to resist vaccines.
As a result of stronger winds caused by global warming, seeds and pollen are being carried over longer distances. An increase in temperature of only a couple of degrees may increase the dispersal of plants in Northern forests and the spread of plant species into forest clearings after felling or forest fires.
All of Earth's people, according to a new analysis of the genomes of 53
populations, fall into just three genetic groups. They are the products
of the first and most important journey our species made -- the walk
out of Africa about 70,000 years ago by a small fraction of ancestral Homo sapiens.
School superintendents around the country are to spend the summer preparing for a massive swine flu vaccine this fall and added that schools are being put on notice that they might be turned into factory assembly line shot clinics.
The maximum size vehicle weighs 45 tonnes gross, and carries 175 passengers, three and two abreast. Minimum headway at 500 km/h is 20 seconds, which permits a maximum single vehicle operation capacity of 25,000 seats/hour in each direction, as compared to about 10,000 for light rail and about 3,000 for a highway lane. With headways of 60 seconds in keeping with current state-of-the-art automatic controllers, three coupled intercity vehicles would be used to achieve the 25,000 seats/hour intercity capacity.
The US Department of Health and Human Services on Tuesday announced that a 35-million-dollar contract has been awarded to a US company that is developing a flu vaccine using insect cell technology.
Workers renovating a house in the traditional town of Jesus' birth
accidentally discovered an untouched ancient tomb containing clay pots,
plates, beads and the bones of two humans, a Palestinian antiquities
official said.
Transmission of an infectious superbug from dogs and cats to humans, and back again, is an increasing problem, a new study finds. The superbug, a strain of bacteria known as MRSA, has evolved a resistance to antibiotics. It has long plagued hospitals but in recent years has become more common in homes. MRSA has even invaded beaches. Only about two years ago, scientists began to seriously suspect pets were transmitting the bacteria
DNA may contain the blueprint for life but it takes proteins to read the plan and build an organism. The mechanism of this vital biological process has remained a mystery but now researchers in France are proposing a physical model wherein individual proteins can “slide” freely along DNA strands in search of target sequences.
Collaborators at Colorado State Univ. realized there was something wrong with the
original equation when they used it to calculate the weight of living animals, such as elephants, and
found that it drastically overestimated their mass.
The scientists devised a new statistical model that can more
accurately predict the mass of an animal based on the width of its bones.
Bismuth Telluride allows electrons on its surface to travel with no loss of energy at room temperatures and can be fabricated using existing semiconductor technologies. Such material could provide a leap in microchip speeds, and even become the bedrock of an entirely new kind of computing industry based on spintronics, the next evolution of electronics
The new strain of H1N1
flu is causing "something different" to happen in the United States
this year -- perhaps an extended year-round flu season that
disproportionately hits young people, health officials said.
Of the reactors covered here: The Chinese HTR-PM (250 MWe) is scheduled to begin construction in September of this year and is to be completed in 2013. The Hyperion Power Generation company has customer orders and is planning to have their first hot tub size uranium hydride reactors (27MWe) built in 2013. The Russians have built reactors like the SVBR (75/100 MWe) metal breeder reactor for their submarines. The SVBR reactor project is funded and should have a pilot reactor for 2020. These first three reactors would likely also be the lowest cost reactors of the ones proposed here. The funding and commitment to build those reactors seems to be the strongest. China and Russia will build those reactors for internal use. Hyperion Power Generation's uranium hydride reactor seems simple enough and they have convinced customers to buy it if they build it and can meet what they are claiming
The most primitive dinosaurs in the famous theropod group (that later included Tyrannosaurus rex)
had five "fingers." Later theropods had three, just like the birds that
evolved from them. But which digits? The theropod and bird digits
failed to match up if you number the digits from 1 to 5 starting with
the thumb. Theropods looked like they had digits 1, 2 and 3, while
birds have digits 2, 3 and 4.
At an American Astronomical Society press conference today in Boulder, Colorado, researchers announced that a jet stream deep inside the sun is migrating slower than usual through the star's interior, giving rise to the current lack of sunspots.
Nanocomp’s fundamental breakthrough is its patent-pending method for high-volume production of very long CNTs (approximately one millimeter in length), and then processing the nanotubes into contiguous macrostructures. Over the past 18 months, the company has been distributing CNT yarn into the marketplace, recently delivering the 10 kilometer shipment to meet its customer’s volume and performance specifications.
The researchers show experimentally that the rate of creep is logarithmic, which means slowing creep increases durability exponentially. They demonstrate mathematically that creep can be slowed by a rate of 2.6. That would have a truly remarkable effect on durability: a containment vessel for nuclear waste built to last 100 years with today's concrete could last up to 16,000 years if made with an ultra-high-density (UHD) concrete.
Imagine if we triggered a drought and famine while trying to cool the planet, Robock said. On the plus side, it's also possible that diffusing sunlight could end up boosting agriculture, he said.
A new, notable scientific discover was made back in May that further confirms Darwinian evolution and makes un-Intelligent Design look even more ridiculous.
