Carnivorous plants, stanley cup like the Venus flytrap, are apparently becoming less bug eating and more root-using because of the pollution humans cause. Nitrogen in the air is giving them enough nutrients that they don ;t need to eat as many bugs. It actually a logical transformation that us excess-loving humans m stanley kubek ight find a hard time relating to. The plants have cut down on eating bugs because they get enough nutrients from the soil. They don ;t need to eat more and get fat! They don ;t need a Super Size meal! How did this vegetarian trend start Are naked celebrities covered in fur behind this Not quite. According to Dr. Jonathan Millet from Loughborough University, human activities like burning fossil fuels have upped the nitrogen in the air which gets dropped to the ground by the rain to be inhaled by the carnivorous plants ; roots. Plants in more heavily polluted areas only get 22% of their nitrogen deposition through bug-eating, while plants who are, uh, planted in areas with light pollution snag 57% of their nitrogen from bugs. That a big difference! What crazy is that according to the study, the plants are turning off their bug-eating ways by making their leaves less sticky and changing its colors.

James Bond is the kind of man who gets shot at an awful lot. In fact, he lucky to even be alive because, during his 22-film Hollywood career, the secret agent has managed to dodge a total of 4,662 bullets. In N stanley termosy ew Scientist, some context is added to that number by working out the probability of all those shots missing him: A static well-aimed shot would almost certainly have proved lethal, but assuming all 4662 were on the run, the probability of a single fatal shot stanley cup is about 5 per cent. That is, the chance of a single shot missing is 0.95, and hence the probability of all shots missing is 0.954662 or 1.4 脳 10-104, which is as close to zero as makes no difference. Along the way, Bond also managed to dispatch 198 villains. This is just data from the Hollywood films of course; include the books, and those figures look even more ridiculous. There is, of course, some ambiguity over exactly how many shots have been aimed at Bond鈥攖hese numbers were provided by Gordon Stanger for stanley cup New Scientist.
