Hardy Russian bees replacing US bees lost in Colony Collapse
Post Date: 2013-06-07 02:48:19 by Tatarewicz

WASHINGTON, June 6 (by Karin Zeitvogel for RIA Novosti) – Russian bees are the latest buzzword among American beekeepers who see the hardy honey-makers as potential saviors against a mysterious blight that has decimated the US bee population. Originally from the coastal Primorsky in Russia’s Far East, Russian bees are twice as resistant to varroa mites, tiny parasites that can infest beehives and were fingered in a report released in May by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as the single greatest cause of the dramatic decline in the US honeybee population, which has fallen from 6 million colonies in 1947 to 2.5 million today. ...

TacoCopter turned out to be a fake. So did the Burrito Bomber. But now, the skies, at least in the U.K., have finally opened up to fast food: Domino's Pizza has carried out a delivery order by drone helicopter. Video of the DomiCopter—developed by Aerosight—was posted by T + Biscuits, the creative agency brought in by the pizza chain's U.K. headquarters. The copter reportedly can deliver up to two large pizzas over a four-mile radius in 10 minutes or less. “If anything, it went quicker than a pizza boy," T + Biscuits founder Tom Hatton told Fox News. "We were amazed at how easy it was going to be.” Of course, there are a few caveats about the ...

Russian Activists Plant Flowers Potatoes in Road Potholes
Post Date: 2013-06-02 06:00:12 by Tatarewicz
1 Comments
YAROSLAVL, June 2 (RIA Novosti) - A group of activists in the Central Russian city of Yaroslavl planted potatoes in road potholes “to see if these potatoes will grow sooner than the city authorities repair the roads.” Road construction and repair in Russia is notoriously inefficient, with funds allocated for road maintenance often embezzled or misused. The quality of the road surface in many parts of the country remains extremely poor, even when highways are frequently repaired. Participants, equipped with light-reflecting vests and spray paint, ringed several hundred of potholes on the city roads with bright-colored paint on Sunday morning in a bid to attract the attention of ...

Industrial-size worm farm cuts Sydney waste

SYDNEY, May 31 (Xinhua) -- A worm farm trial in a Sydney eatery precinct has halved the total waste of a local restaurant and juice shop, saving on rubbish bills and producing fertiliser, the City of Sydney said Friday. The Green Living Centre held a six-month trial of the farm using a 1,500 litre skip bin to house the worms at their office in Newtown, Sydney. Over the six months the farm diverted 462 kilograms, the equivalent of 6,500 hamburgers, of food waste from two local businesses, said Project Manager Mithra Cox. The 323 litres of organic fertilizer produced by the worms was given away to local residents, and is expected to produce about 40 kilograms of compost. "The worm ...

May 30, 2013 - Eight United States and world aviation records were broken and set by Palm Beach resident Douglas Matthews on May 23, flying his P-51D Mustang The Rebel. Matthews broke several long-standing aviation records for time-to-climb and ultimate altitude. In the effort that had been planned for several months, Matthews' support team watched as he launched at 10:30 a.m. from Indiantown Airport northwest of Palm Beach International. Prior to flight he breathed 100 percent oxygen for 90 minutes to avoid the effects of the "bends." During the entire flight Matthews required supplemental oxygen. The records listed below will be unofficial until sanctioned by the U.S. ...

The Subliminal Mind: - C2C recap
Post Date: 2013-05-27 04:22:01 by Tatarewicz
1 Comments
C2C: On Wednesday's show, physicist and author Leonard Mlodinow discussed his work on the power of the subliminal, and how the unconscious mind shapes our experience of the world. According to him, all judgments and perceptions reflect the workings of our mind on two levels: the conscious, of which we are aware, and the unconscious, which is hidden from us. Subliminal or subconscious effects can play out in a variety of ways. For instance, it's known that the sense of touch can build trust, and in an experiment with waiters and waitresses at a restaurant, the customers whom they subtly touched ended up tipping 20% better than those they hadn't. This is a form of subliminal ...

Streetlamp Interference: A Modern-day Pa
Post Date: 2013-05-25 04:03:33 by Tatarewicz
11 Comments
Let’s say there’s a row of street lamps you pass every day while going to and from work. They are, being typical, modern street lamps, of the low-pressure sodium-vapor variety, emitting a red glow at start up and, once they’re operating fully, a steady monochrome yellow. The lamps automatically switch on at sundown, via the activation of a light-sensitive cell, or photocell. The cell is triggered again when sunlight returns at dawn, switching the lamps off. Generally, rather than each lamp having its own photocell, a single photocell is used to control a whole group of street lamps. You’re returning home from work on what has so far been a completely typical evening, ...

Avocado Surprises

Who doesn’t love a good surprise care-package? A few months ago I received an epic one from a friend in California. I opened the very heavy box to find…. More than a dozen avocados. From his backyard avocado tree no less. Talk about a new best friend. Avocados have a notorious reputation for being high in fat and calories and many people (especially frequent dieters) are still anti-avo for this reason. But the fruit has quickly moved up the ranks as one of my favorite foods — and not just because I had a lot of them to go through. Yes, avocados aka “nature’s butter” are definitely high in fat – but it’s the healthy, unsaturated kind that’s ...

Meet Taylor Powers. The college student, 21, had to be rescued yesterday afternoon off a Colorado mountain after she ingested mushrooms, stripped off her clothes, and scuffled with two classmates with whom she had been hiking. After receiving a 911 call that a female hiker was “high on mushrooms and in distress,” Boulder County Sheriff’s Office deputies and other assorted rescue personnel (35 in total) responded to Chautauqua Park. Powers, seen above, was located by a park ranger who discovered that the University of Colorado undergrad had “removed all of her clothing and was being restrained” by two male companions. Rescuers had to handcuff the unruly Powers, ...
