Jdbb Warner Brothers Is Being Sued For Using Nyan Cat Without Permission
Last week, a softball-sized eyeball washed ashore in Florida. At the time, researcher Charles Messing guessed the eye belonged to a swordfish. A day later, Deep Sea News ; Craig McClain got in touch with S枚nke Johnsen, an expert on everything visual in marine organisms awesome, right . Johnsen told McClain the fleshy orb stanley website was definitely a swordfish eye. And today, researchers at the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission released their official verdict. Survey says Swordfish eye. Experts on site and remotely have viewed and analyzed the eye, and based on its color, size and structure, along with the presence of bone around it, we believe the eye came from a swordfish, said the FWC Joan Herrera in a statement. Based on straight-line cuts visible around the eye, we believe it was removed by a fisherman and discarded. So there you have it. According to Herrera, the FWC is still waiting on genetic confirmations, but we think this case is pretty much closed 鈥?even if the FWC announcement came 3 days after the definite stanley flasche 8221; confirmation from Johnsen and McClain, who I think we can safely say won the internet on this one.

What is it about technology and Aussie rock band AC/DC In July a comput stanley cup er hack led to the band track Thunderstruck belting out at top volume in an Iranian nuclear power plant. Now AC/DC signature h stanley quencher it Highway to Hell is riding on a laser beam that being bounced off a drone in mid-flight. When the beam is reflected to a ground sensor the full glory of the music is reconstructed without a cymbal crash out of place. Don ;t worry, it not a new sonic weapon. To make drones lighter and and operate longer reconnaissance missions without refuelling, Yoann Thueux and colleagues at EADS Innovation Works in Newport, UK, eschew the heavy radio equipment and antennas used to beam acquired video back to base. Instead, they are developing a laser reflector called Dazzle that can simply add the drone acquired video data to a laser beam bounced off the craft belly by a tracking system up to 2 kilometres away. After the laser beam enters the reflector, it passes through a transparent switch, called a light modulator, that adds the digital zeroes and ones of the video data to the beam. The light then hits a mirror and is reflected bac stanley uk k to the spot it came from carrying the video data. The tech will allow a speed boost to 1 gigabit per second easily allowing faster delivery of HD video, which struggles to top 20 megabits per second with radio frequencies.

A recent stanley termosar paper published in Nature Geoscience has proposed the existence of an entirely new kind of volcanic eruption, which geologists are now calling a tangaroan ; eruption. Rather than being either explosive or effusive, this newly documented type of eruption involves the slow release of magma that generates a kind of buoyant foam filled with tiny bubbles. Then, these globs of hardening molten lava rise to the ocean surface, where they become waterlogged and sink back down. Floating chunks of volcanic rock are nothing new to scientists. When explosive underwater eruptions happen, gas bubbles called vesicles expand so quickly that they fragment the magma, causing it to cool and de-gas 鈥?thus creating a form of solidified pumice that light enough to float on water. And in fact, these rocks are sometimes found floating on the water in huge quantities. Just last year a mass of floating stanley thermobecher rocks were found off New Zealand 鈥?an expanse of molten rock that occupied a space the size of Belgium about a 26,000 square kilometer stretch 10,039 s stanley cup quare miles . But this previously undocumented form of volcanic eruption is a bit different. According to the researchers, a team consisting of Ian Wright and Melissa Rotella of the National Oceanography Centre, recent analysis on volcanic remnants indicated a new kind of process. Specifically, they documented the shape and density of bubbles in pumices generated by the Macauley volcano, an underwater calde

After months of controversy, the journal Nature has published the details of an experiment describing how the avian flu can be modified into a human-contagious form. The publication has prompted critics to warn of a possible h stanley usa uman disaster, should the details of study get into the wrong hands or the mutant virus accidentally escape the lab. And this incident highlights growing concerns about unchecked scientific inquiry, the mounting potential for academic censorship, and the ongoing development of increasingly powerful and dangerous biotechnologies. The research was conducted by Yoshihiro Kawaoka and his team at the University of Wisconsin-Madison to determine the likelihood of the H5N1 influenza virus naturally mutating on its own in the wild. Their findings were alarming. The research team discovered that the virus was as little as one mutational step away from being able to spread effectively between other animals through airborne transmission. The virus is highly pathogenic and often lethal in humans, but in its current incarnation cannot spread efficiently between people. To determine the possibility of increas stanley cup ed human transmissibility, Kawaoka created a hybrid virus by mutating H5N1 haemagglutinin HA gene, which produces the protein that the virus uses to stick itself to host cells.

Rudy Rucker was the first author to win the Philip K. Dick Award, right after Dick death in 1982. Around that time, Rucker was becoming aware of the new Cyberpunk movement and meeting the rebellious authors who were reimagining the union of humans and computers.

Besides being stanley cup utterly adorable and begging for a tiny training montage, this rat is actually demonstrating an impressive medical treatment. Because just a few weeks prior, it was actually paralyzed with a spinal cord injury. Researchers at the EPFL have developed stanley termosky a special electrochemical treatment that can help treat paralysis by encouraging the brain to re-wire some of its neural networks to different tasks. And in this case, the newly assigned task is to take control of limbs that were previously paralyzed. The treatment starts with the rats being injected with a series of chemicals that bond to the receptors on stanley cups their spinal cord neurons. These chemicals then allow the dead spinal cord to be receptive to stimulation from electrodes implanted in the rat spinal canal. Over time, the stimulation helps to awaken the spinal cord neurons, which in turn allows the spinal cord to basically learn how to move and function again. Although, that is a quick summation of a long process. The treatment does require the rat to undergo physical therapy, including using its paralyzed hind legs to walk on a treadmill. Hence, the adorable vest getup in that photo. But in just a couple of weeks of training the paralyzed rats were able to once again take their first steps on their hind legs, and after six weeks were able to walk for long periods on their own.

You probably think that a wing lifts an airplane because the airflow moving over the top has a longer distance to travel and needs to go faster to have the same transit time as the air travelling along the lower, flat surface. Well, you are wrong. University of Cambridge Professor Holger Babinsky was so frustrated that everyone seems to believe this that he thought he should demonstrate that it is absolutely wrong: I don ;t know when the explanation first surfaced but it been around for decades. You find it taught in textbooks, explained on television and even described in aircraft manuals for pilots.

So he created this 1-minute video that actually shows what happens to the air as it travels the wing.

Cynics of the world have long complained that love is an abstract concept, something conjured by poets and the hopelessly romantic. But the suggestion that love is a cultural invention is out of synch with the latest research. Neuroscientists working out of Concordia University in Canada appear to have shown that love and sexual desire activate separate but related areas of the brai stanley mugs n. This seems to indicate that there a cognitive basis for these feelings, and that they ;re distinct from each other. They also discovered that vaso stanley the part of the brain responsible for love is the same area that lights up when a person becomes addicted to drugs 鈥?leading researchers to conclude that love is habit-forming. Neuroscientist Jim Pfaus, along with colleagues in the USA and Switzerland, analyzed the results from 20 separate studies that examined brain activity.

After pooling this data, the psychologists compiled a complete map of love and desire in the brain.
