Patients with heart disease can worry about one less thing: German researchers find sex doesn't seem to trigger heart attacks, strokes or other unpleasant events. The American Heart Association advises that sex after a heart attack is OK. But patients don't always get that message, says Dr. Dietrich Rothenbacher, who led a small study at Ulm University in Germany. American Heart Association "Based on our data, it seems very unlikely that sexual activity is a relevant trigger of heart attack," Rothenbacher said in a statement. "It is important to reassure patients that they need not be worried and should resume their usual sexual activity." They questioned ...

NaturalNews.com Ecologists refer to bees and a few other select organisms as keystone species. This term is analogous to the keystone of an arch. Remove the wedge-shaped stone at the top, and the entire structure collapses. Bees are a keystone species because they are the world’s primary pollinators and are therefore crucial to the environment. While Monsanto claims bees only pollinate about a third of the world’s crops, others estimate their contribution to be closer to 90%. But the startling decline of the bee population isn’t just threatening our crops, it is also threatening varied and diverse wild plants across the globe that provide food for countless animal ...

The term “lovebird” has a new meaning. A recent study reveals that birds can fall in love. According to Nature World Report, Malika Ihle and her team of researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Ornithology in Germany found that birds that ended up choosing their own mates had 37 percent more offspring than those that were paired up. The researchers used 160 zebra finches for the study, allowing 20 females to choose freely among 20 males. After the birds paired off, half were left alone while the other have were broken up and paired with other “broken up” birds. They found that birds that paired up on their own had higher reproduction rates than the ones paired ...

Want... The People's Liberation Army may eventually equip its main battle tanks with electric reactive armor to prevent damage from anti-tank weapons, reports China's Global Times. Electric reactive armor is usually made of two electrical plates separated by an insulator to make a high-power capacitor. When a tank using the armor is hit by an incoming object such as a rocket or missile, it will discharge electricity from the capacitor to vaporize the object. The discharge is claimed to be powerful to turn the incoming object into plasma, said the report. From the Chinese perspective, the electric reactive armor is the best available defensive technology for tanks in the world and ...
