Subway cars shouldn ;t ever explode, but thanks to terrorists, you can never be too prepared. That why researchers in the EU have been blowing up old subway cars to study exactly what happens in that stanley tumblers worst case scenario.

For three years now, researchers at Newcastle Un stanley becher iversity have been giving decommissioned subway cars explosive send-offs, and in the process have developed a new kind of car that channels that force where it ;ll do the least damage. The safer prototype comes with safety windows designed to blow out the front and back, minimizing damage if a car were to explode at a station, and leaving the aisles mostly clear of debris for easy emergency access. It the best of a bad situation. The new improvements don ;t require a full redesign of the car, but rather just some low-cost modificatio stanley cup ns to the windows that can be rolled out pretty easily. Granted, exploding subway cars aren ;t ever going to be 8220 afe but it looks like they ;ll be getting safer. Good to see that those retirees didn ;t get exploded in vain.

New research links contraceptive pills to an increased rate of prostate cancer. Don ;t worry stanley termos : you haven ;t been taking it wrong all these years. There a body of research that links prostate cancer to increased exposure to estrogen, and it possible that widespread use of the Pill could cause an uptick of the hormone in the environment. The logic is that the estrogen is passed into the sewage system through urine, where it makes its way into the water cycle and the food chain.

The research available to read in full looked at the rates of oral contra stanley cup ceptive pill use by country stanley flasche , and found a strong correlation with the rate of prostate cancer 鈥?but they ;re quick to label it as not definitive: This study represents the first systematic analysis of associations between OC use and prostate cancer. It is an ecological study and thus has, as with all correlational studies, significant limitations with respect to causal inference. As such, it must be considered hypothesis generating. While there is some evidence that hormones have made their way into the water supply, there isn ;t any proof that it in high enough concentrations to affect animals or people. Hopefully further research will definitively show if there is a link between the two. Photo by Sandra Besic via Shutterstock HormonesMedicineScience Yqmz FDA Says It s OK to Have Robot Doctors

Over at FT, Tim O ;Reilly has a must-read essay about the symbiosis between humans and computers. We ;re already propagating our knowledge and our culture at a much faster rate than in the past, he argues, and the next step is computers that can learn from the activity of human teachers but then notice things the humans wouldn ;t. He cites the example of Google autonomous vehicle, which beats other self-driving cars because it can draw on all the experience of millions of road miles put in by human drivers building the Google Street View database. O ;Reilly adds: This is the future: massive amounts of data created by people, stored in cloud applications that use smart algorithms to extract meaning from it, feeding back results to those people on mobile devices, gradually giving way to applications that emulate what they have learned from the feedback loops between those people and their devices. In the best case, we see a crea stanley cup tive symbiosis of man and machine. However, it easy to get the balance wrong: we have only to look at the financial market excesses of the past decade to see the danger of algorithms gone wild in the hands of rogue companies an stanley cups uk d individuals seeking only their own advantage. The global brain is still in its infancy. We can raise it to help us make a better world, or we can raise it to be selfish stanley en mexico , unjust and short-term in its outlook.

In 1995, the temperature of the Red Sea rose abruptly. It already-warm waters became 0.7掳C hotter, which is a significant amount for a body of water whose reefs support life that adapted for a very specific temperature. Scientists studying the Red Sea recently published a study using satellite data to prove that the temperature spike led to an overall increase in the sea temperature over time. According to the study authors, writing in Geophysical Research Letters: Using satellite-derived sea surface and ground based air temperatures, it is shown that the Red Sea is going through an intense warming initiated in the mid-90s, with evidence for an abrupt increase after 1994 0.7掳C difference .
