Is this a government operation, or what? The AAA says the Environmental Protection Agency and gasoline retailers should halt the sale of E15, a new ethanol blend that could damage millions of vehicles and void car warranties. AAA, which issued its warning today, says just 12 million of more than 240 million cars, trucks and SUVs now in use have manufacturers' approval for E15. Flex-fuel vehicles, 2012 and newer General Motors vehicles, 2013 Fords and 2001 and later model Porsches are the exceptions, according to AAA, the nation's largest motorist group, with 53.5 million members. "It is clear that millions of Americans are unfamiliar with E15, which means there is a strong ...

LED Replacements for 100-Watt Light Bulbs Hit Stores

NEW YORK (AP) — Sorry to see 100-watt bulbs disappear from stores because they were energy hogs? You can now get LED bulbs that roughly match the 100-watters for size and brightness, but use far less energy. Until recently, your only alternative was a compact fluorescent bulb, which has several drawbacks compared with light-emitting diodes. Most people see the light quality as less pleasing, and the bulbs contain a small amount of mercury that’s released if the glass breaks. LEDs, by contrast, don’t contain any volatile, hazardous substances and are durable. They also last longer. Osram Sylvania, a division of Germany’s Siemens AG, said Monday that it’s shipping ...

Are Al Gore’s “Dirty Weather” Claims And Tactics Criminal? by Dr. Tim Ball on November 22, 2012 Fraud is defined as “wrongful or criminal deception intended to result in financial or personal gain.” Did Al Gore campaign to deceive the world about the role of human produced CO2 causing world ending global warming and climate change. He profited through carbon credits based on the false need to reduce CO2 and advanced his political career by “saving the planet.” Others distorted climate science for a political agenda, but none with the intensity of Gore. One was Senator Tim Wirth who in 1993 said, “We’ve got to ride the global warming issue. ...

EVANSVILLE, Ind. - Police in Evansville say a 4-year-old boy was fatally injured when a large television apparently fell on him. Police say it appears the television fell off its stand and landed on Gennix Starks. The Evansville Courier & Press and WFIE-TV reported emergency workers were called to an apartment where the boy was injured Wednesday night and that he later died at a hospital. Police say investigators believe the boy's death was accidental based on physical evidence at the apartment and preliminary medical reports.
The Greenhouse Gas Blanket that Fails to Warm the World

The Greenhouse Gas Blanket that Fails to Warm the World Looking through his astrophysicist's eyes Joe Postma made a great point when observing our beautiful blue, wet planet from space: “Energy leaves the Earth, the same amount leaving over two hemispheres, as what comes in over a single hemisphere.” Amazingly, for over 50 years climate researchers overlooked the huge significance of this basic fact when they modeled Earth simplistically by averaging incoming solar radiation equally over both hemispheres. In the age before supercomputers it was expedient to ignore the complexity that our 70% liquid planet creates due to day/night heating and cooling of the water cycle. ...
The Hunt for Dark Matter

(AP:SIOUX FALLS, S.D.) Scientists hoping to detect dark matter deep in a former South Dakota gold mine have taken the last major step before flipping the switch on their more than $300 million experiment and say they may be ready to begin collecting data as early as February. What's regarded as the world's most sensitive dark matter detector was lowered earlier this month into a 70,000-gallon water tank nearly a mile beneath the earth's surface, shrouding it in enough insulation to hopefully isolate dark matter from the cosmic radiation that makes it impossible to detect above ground. And if all goes as planned, the data that begins flowing could answer age-old questions about ...
Cuddle hormone' could keep men faithful

A sniff of a "cuddle hormone" can encourage married men to literally keep their distance from other women, German scientists have shown - but paranoid wives should not put in orders for monogamy spray quite yet. Rather than making men look out for a new woman, the hormone oxytocin, known for its importance in bonding between romantic partners, seemed to steer those already in a relationship away from a potential rival, the researchers found. But not all men reacted the same way. "For the singles, there was no significant effect," Dirk Scheele from the University of Bonn's Department of Psychiatry, told The Local. The study conducted by scientists from the ...

A new bio-ink that is capable of carrying living cells through a printer has been developed. This image shows muscle [green] and nerve cells [red] suspended in the new bio-ink and inkjet printed on to a collagen hydrogel bio-printer. The development opens fantastic opportunities for tissue engineering. Image: University of Wollongong Scientists are one step closer to being able to print tissue replacements for diseased or damaged body parts using inkjet printers, thanks to the development of a specialised ink formulation. Researchers have been aware for some time of the potential for using commercially available inkjet printer heads to print living human cells into 3D structures, but ...

Stunning Map Reveals World's Earthquakes Since 1898

If you've ever wondered where — and why — earthquakes happen the most, look no further than a new map, which plots more than a century's worth of nearly every recorded earthquake strong enough to at least rattle the bookshelves. The map shows earthquakes of magnitude 4.0 or greater since 1898; each is marked in a lightning-bug hue that glows brighter with increasing magnitude. The overall effect is both beautiful and arresting, revealing the silhouettes of Earth's tectonic boundaries in stark, luminous swarms of color. You can read the rest of the story at the site, and, look at the fantastic map as well. BUT, that is not the best part. There is a short video at ...

ScienceDaily (Nov. 6, 2012) — Bacteria can talk to each other via molecules they themselves produce. The phenomenon is called quorum sensing, and is important when an infection propagates. Now, researchers at Linköping University in Sweden are showing how bacteria control processes in human cells the same way. Share This: The results are being published in PLoS Pathogens with Elena Vikström, researcher in medical microbiology, as the main author. Bacteria 'talk' When the announcement goes out, more and more bacteria gather at the site of the attack -- a wound, for example. When there are enough of them, they start acting like multicellular organisms. They can ...
The top five Linux desktop vendors

Summary: Sick of Windows, but don't feel comfortable installing Linux yourself? No problem. There are many vendors who will sell a Linux laptop or desktop that's ready to go. It's really not that hard to give Linux a try on a desktop or notebook. But, I get it. Not everyone is comfortable with burning operating system ISOs to a CD and then booting a computer from it. If that's you, or a friend of yours, then consider just buying a PC or laptop that has Linux on it that's ready to go. Unfortunately, you can't just go down to your local Best Buy or Sam's Club and get one. While Linux PCs show up from time to time in retail outlets, the odds are against you ...
How underground Rodent Wards Off Cancer: Second Mole Rat Species Has Different Mechanism for Resisting Cancer

ScienceDaily (Nov. 5, 2012) — Biologists at the University of Rochester have determined how blind mole rats fight off cancer -- and the mechanism differs from what they discovered three years ago in another long-lived and cancer-resistant mole rat species, the naked mole rat. Share This: The team of researchers, led by Professor Vera Gorbunova and Assistant Professor Andrei Seluanov, found that abnormally growing cells in blind mole rats secrete the interferon beta protein, which causes those cells to rapidly die. Seluanov and Gorbunova hope the discovery will eventually help lead to new cancer therapies in humans. Their findings are being published this week in the Proceedings of ...

A group of German students has caused a stir in the normally separate worlds of beer brewing and molecular biotechnology. On Sunday they will present their caffeinated, lemon, and sweet beers to a panel of experts in the US. For the past six months, 19 students from the Research at the Centre of Life and Food Sciences Weihenstephan, part of the Munich Technical University (TUM), have been fiddling with the genetic make-up of yeast, and turning the results into a range of weird and wonderful beers. So far, the team has managed to adapt the yeast so that in the brewing process it makes caffeinated, lemon-flavour, sweetened, and even cancer-fighting beer, the Süddeutsche Zeitung ...
