“Controversial Study Exposes ‘7 Innocent Words’ That Make Women Horny...” Thanks To This Incredibly Simple Trick, I’m Finally Having Sex Again Night After Night, Girl After Girl... April 12, 2016 A team of renegade scientists are claiming to have found a strange loophole in the female mind that can be used to turn women on at will. The shocking discovery they have made has nothing to do with “good looks” or the size of a man’s bank account. Instead, their discovery is a based on cutting edge research into a set of words that can be slipped into ordinary conversation for immediate female arousal. Though it sounds like something right out of a ...

Hey, did you know in Texas, it’s illegal to possess an Erlenmeyer flask without a permit from the government? What’s an Erlenmeyer flask? It’s that glass conical-bottom, narrow-necked flask you see in all the science labs. Remember high school science class? So why is a piece of science lab equipment illegal without das paperwerken from das government? Because it’s allegedly used to manufacture illegal drugs. Well, gosh, so are a lot of things! But this is a thing I have mentioned before here and now would like to expand on: Local government is often the most tyrannical because they can pass laws faster than the federal government can spend a billion dollars.

FUTURISM...Samsung just took another step into science fiction. South Korea has just granted the tech giant a patent for contact lenses with a display that can project images straight into the user's eye. The news comes from a Samsung-centric blog SamMobile. The lenses are equipped with a built-in camera and sensors that can be controlled simply by blinking. Content is sent to your smartphone through embedded antennas. This is where the data is processed. It seems that Samsung is developing the smart contact lenses as an alternative to creating improved augmented reality experiences over the current crop of wearables, reports SamMobile. With contact lenses instead of glasses, users ...
Lobster sex is complicated, gross and screamingly funny

Lobsters like their foreplay. Lucky for the females, 25 million years have provided ample time to refine their skills as apothecaries. Arriving at the entrance of an aggressive male’s shelter, all a female lobster needs to do is spritz him with some of her pee, a little each day over several days, and he will be putty in her claws. The ability to shoot pee forward—something male and female lobsters both put to good use—requires some unique engineering (the mammalian penis is another example). For most animals, the outgoing waste ducts evolved to point away from the head, for obvious reasons. In lobsters, however, the bladder sits below the brain, with two reservoirs storing ...

ScienceAlert... Solar power is making huge strides as a reliable, renewable energy source, but there's still a lot of untapped potential in terms of the efficiency of photovoltaic cells and what happens at night and during inclement weather. Now a solution has been put forward in the form of producing energy from raindrops. Key to the new process is graphene: a 'wonder' material we've heard plenty about before. Because raindrops are not made up of pure water, and contain various salts that split up into positive and negative ions, a team from the Ocean University of China in Qingdao thinks we can harness power via a simple chemical reaction. Specifically, they want to use ...

(I've been wondering when it would reach the molecular level. What does that leave -- ectoplasm? Pics at site. NN) As electronic devices become ever more complex, and the densities of components in those devices increases exponentially, we are rapidly approaching the day when the limitations of Moore's Law will be realized. In an effort to avert this eventuality, research has concentrated on moving away from traditional silicon technologies and into the realms of molecule- sized components and alternative materials. In this vein, researchers at the University of Georgia (UGA) and Ben-Gurion University (BGU) in Israel have, for the first time, created a nanoscale electronic diode ...

Towards a new theory of sleep
Post Date: 2016-04-07 06:31:00 by Tatarewicz
0 Comments
ScienceDaily... This research has broken new ground as it explored neuronal homeostasis in the context of freely behaving rats. Why do animals sleep? Even though slumber consumes about a third of the day for many life forms, we know very little about why it's needed. The need for sleep remains one of the great mysteries of biology. A leading theory posits that sleep may provide the brain with an opportunity to "rebalance" itself. In this model, waking experiences are associated with powerful processes of learning and development that, over time, result in the saturation of our brains' ability to strengthen connections. Not only would this prevent further learning, but ...

Within the 128 cities studied, the researchers found that 83 percent of small buildings have a suitable location for PV installation, but only 26 percent of those buildings' total rooftop area is suitable for development. Because of the sheer number of this class of building across the country, however, small buildings actually provide the greatest combined technical potential. Credit: © nd700 / Fotolia Analysts at the Energy Department's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) have used detailed light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data for 128 cities nationwide, along with improved data analysis methods and simulation tools, to update its estimate of total U.S. technical ...

ScienceAlert... Numerous studies point to the benefits of speaking more than one language, with research showing that bilingual adults have a higher volume of grey matter and could recover more easily from brain injuries. Scientists have also found that the positive effects of bilingualism can be seen in young children, but a new study suggests that the benefits of exposing a person to more than one language can be seen even when we're just a few months old. "Our results suggest that before they even start talking, babies raised in bilingual households are getting practice at tasks related to executive function," said neuroscientist Naja Ferjan Ramírez from the ...

RT... Slashing greenhouse gas emissions has not always been a pleasant task for the coal power industry, but a new process could radically change that, according to models created by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers. The method proposed by MIT Professor Ronald C. Crane and doctoral student Katherine Ong could double the amount of electricity produced for each unit of coal, meaning the amount of emissions produced per unit of power would be cut in half, according to the abstract of their paper published in the Journal of Power Sciences on Monday. While the concept could represent a huge leap forward in terms of coal’s environmental friendliness, it’s ...

Making and owning an H-bomb is the kind of challenge real Americans seek. Who wants to be a passive victim of nuclear war when, with a little effort, you can be an active participant? Bomb shelters are for losers. Who wants to huddle together underground eating canned Spam? Winners want to push the button themselves. Making your own H-bomb is a big step in nuclear assertiveness training -- it's called Taking Charge. We're sure you'll enjoy the risks and the heady thrill of playing nuclear chicken. Introduction When the Feds clamped down on The Progressive magazine for attempting to publish an article on the manufacture of the hydrogen bomb, it piqued our curiosity. Was it ...

A viral video released in February showed Boston Dynamics' new bipedal robot, Atlas, performing human-like tasks: opening doors, tromping about in the snow, lifting and stacking boxes. Tech geeks cheered and Silicon Valley investors salivated at the potential end to human manual labor. Shortly thereafter, White House economists released a forecast that calculated more precisely whom Atlas and other forms of automation are going to put out of work. Most occupations that pay less than $20 an hour are likely to be, in the words of the report, “automated into obsolescence.” The so-called Fourth Industrial Revolution has found its first victims: blue- collar workers and the poor. ...
