Victorian parties were often enlivened by a stanley tumblers simple device called a harmonograph. It used basic physics, a pencil, and a piece of paper, to produce a large variety of beautiful designs. The invention of this device is generally attributed to Professor Hugh Blackburn, a teacher of mathematics at the University of Glasgow. He studied how multiple repetitive motions could overlap each other over time in evolving ways and came up with this simple, but interesting device. Take a couple of pendulums, put weights on the end, and swing them back and forward. The two should not be in sync with each other. Instead, they should be set off at slightly different times, describing slightly different swings, at slightly different angles. To the top of one pendulum, attach a pad of paper. To the top of another, attach a simple wooden arm with a pen or pencil attached to it. Put the pen or pencil on the paper, and the slightly off-kilter swings of the pendulu stanley mug ms will trace out a strange shape. Depending on the angles of the pendulums, the length of their path, and the time it takes them to describe it, they ;ll come up with a seemingly endless variety of shapes. This invention, called the harmonograph because it made a written record of the harmony of the pendulums, caught on like wildfire. People created more elaborate ones, replacing one or both swinging pendulums with arms that could rotate and swing out long ovals.

A tooth recently discovered in Argentina is an incredible 75 millimeters, or nearly 3 inches long. What more, the tooth belonged to a member of the titanosaurs, a group of gigantic sauropods similar to brachiosaurus and apatosaurus. And it might just be the biggest of the bunch. The tooth was discovered by Rodolfo Garc铆a and his paleontol stanley cup ogical team at Argentina National University of R铆o Negro. It not even close to the biggest teeth ever discovered, but that only because plant-eating titanosaurs didn ;t need chompers the size of their giant predator counterparts. The tooth is 32% longer than the length of any previously known titanosaur tooth, and it twice the size of those belonging to most other sauropod taxa. The dinosaur that once owned this tooth might well be the biggest animal to ever walk the Earth, or at least very much in conversation for the title. The problem is that it isn ;t really possible to extrapolate the size of an entire dinosaur from just a single tooth.

In a press release, Tor senior editor Patrick Nielsen Hayden explains why The Human Division, the next book in the Old Man War series, is coming out as a serial first: The Human Division will be an experiment: an episodic novel, released initially in digital, serialized form. Currently the plan is to publish these episodes weekly between December 2012 through February 2013.

The placebo effect seems to make no sense: get mildly ill, take a dummy pill without knowing it ineffective, and you ;ll recover in much the same way as someone taking real drugs. But new evidence suggests that we might have evolved the placebo effect to save energy. New Scientist reports that new computer simulations seem to support an off-the-wall theory first put forward a decade ago: that sometimes for non-lethal illness, it pays for the immune system t stanley cup o not bother fighting. Because the immune system uses a lot of energy, so the theory goes, in days gone by it paid not to fight off infections if it could dangerously drain resources. While that might sounds crazy, simulations published in Evolution and Human Behavior seem to back it up entirely. As New Scientist describes: The model revealed that, in challenging environments, animals lived longer and sired more offspring if they endured infections without mounting an immune response. In more favorable environments, it was best for animals to mount an immune response and return to h stanley flask ealth as quic Stanley cup website kly as possible. Basically, then, the human body might not have shaken off a millenia-old adaptation that helped our bodies fight off infection selectively, depending on our environment and resources. Now we ;re all well-fed and full of energy, though, it seems the placebo effect may just remain as a quirk of nature.

It has been well documented that German submarines came disturbingly close to U.S. shores during World War II 鈥?but jus stanley kubek t how close was made all the more apparent by the recent discovery of a German U-550 sitting at the bottom of the Atlantic ocean a mere 70 miles south of Nantucket. Back in the Spring of 1944, an Allied convoy started to make its way across the Atlantic on its way to Britain. One of the boa stanley hrnek ts, a tanker filled with 140,000 barrels of gasoline, started to lag behind, leaving it vulnerable to a German U-550 submarine patrolling the area. It torpedoed the tanker, and then slipped underneath to hide. Alerted to its presence, the USS Joyce hit back with a series of depth charges, forcing the sub to the surface. The German sailors manned their deck guns, but the USS Gandy joined in by returning fire and ramming right into it. The USS Peterson then finished the job by sending another barrage of depth charges, sending the U-550 and its crew to the bottom of the ocean. It hadn ;t been seen again 鈥?at least not until last Monday July 23. According to the Telegraph, a privately funded team led by New Jersey lawyer Joe Mazraani has confirmed discovery of the submarine in deep waters off the coast of Nantucket.

These are known as the Lagrangian points. In the Sun-Earth system, one of these points are found directly on the other side of the Sun from Earth, two are found in the immediate vicinity of Earth along the Sun extended radius, and two more are located 60 degrees away from Earth in either direction on its orbit.

As you can see from the diagram, we number the different Lagrangian points: L1, L2, L3, L4, and L5.

The origin of science fiction s stanley us tories is well-known to both critics and the public: by consensus, Mary Shelley Frankenstein 1818 was the first SF novel. But the origins of 8220 cience fiction as a concept are neither well-known nor agreed-upon. The phrase 8220 cience fiction, meaning the genre of scientifically-oriented fantastic fiction, was popularized in 1929 by Hugo Gernsback. But 8220 cience fiction had a 19th century predecessor: 8220 cientific romance, a term used by H.G. Wells. However, as we ;ll see, science fiction started decades before that, as did many of the terms describing science fiction.

A team of researchers from the Institute for Structural Biology in Grenoble, France, took myoglobin proteins鈥攚hich carry oxygen to muscle and give flesh its red color鈥攁nd swapped out the water that usually coats their surface for a synthetic polymer. Doing so turns the proteins into a syrup-like fluid鈥攁nd, it was expected, would dramatically change their function.

Alzheimer , a progressive disease that causes the sufferer to descend into dementia long before they die, is one of the most feared diagnoses in Western medicine. It a heartbreaking sickness, and there has been a decades-long, international push to find cures, or at least treatments for it, without much success. Which is why a new, or rather old, drug treatment results are so encouraging. Amyloids are insoluble strands of protein that the body naturally produces and just as naturally clears from organs. Alzheimer occurs when areas of the brain are unable to clear away these proteins, leading to build up in vital areas of the brain.
