Picture a movie where robotic flies swarm and wipe out one town after another. Someone escapes and tries to warn the authorities. No one will believe our hero that robotic flies threaten to wipe out humanity. How does it end? Harmless and useful for humanity or the foundation of a nightmare future? CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Sept. 2, 2010 -- Engineers at Harvard University have created a millionth-scale automobile differential to govern the flight of minuscule aerial robots that could someday be used to probe environmental hazards, forest fires, and other places too perilous for people. Their new approach is the first...

— German Military Study Warns On Peak Oil

   (Monday, 06 September 2010 15:05)

An internal study on the approach of Peak Oil done by the military of Germany (which was not supposed to see the light of day) shows the German military expecting drastic changes in the international order as a result of Peak Oil. The issue is so politically explosive that it's remarkable when an institution like the Bundeswehr, the German military, uses the term "peak oil" at all. But a military study currently circulating on the German blogosphere goes even further. The study is a product of the Future Analysis department of the Bundeswehr Transformation Center, a think tank tasked with...

— Muscle Loss With Aging To Be Treated As Disease

   (Monday, 06 September 2010 13:22)

The New York Times reports on a push in medicine: Age-related muscle loss is as bad as bone loss and should also be labeled and treated as a disease. In addition, geriatric specialists, in particular, are now trying to establish the age-related loss of muscles as a medical condition under the name sarcopenia, from the Greek for loss of flesh. Simply put, sarcopenia is to muscle what osteoporosis is to bone. “In the future, sarcopenia will be known as much as osteoporosis is now,” said Dr. Bruno Vellas, president of the International Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics. I welcome the...

Blame your bad grades on your dopamine gene variants. The academic performance of adolescents will suffer in at least one of four key subjects –– English, math, science, history –– if their DNA contains one or more of three specific dopamine gene variations, according to a study led by renowned biosocial criminologist Kevin M. Beaver of The Florida State University. The research sheds new light on the genetic components of academic performance during middle and high school, and on the interplay of specific genes and environmental factors such as peer behavior or school conditions. They looked at 2,500 kids enrolled...

— Japan: Men Take Virtual Girlfriends On Vacation

You might find this pathetic. In the first month of the city's promotional campaign launched July 10, more than 1,500 male fans of the Japanese dating-simulation game LovePlus+ have flocked to Atami for a romantic date with their videogame character girlfriends. The men are real. The girls are cartoon characters on a screen. The trips are actual, can be expensive and aim to re-create the virtual weekend outing featured in the game, a product of Konami Corp. played on Nintendo Co.'s DS videogame system. Imagine how popular virtual girlfriends will become as computer processors and software make them more life-like....

— Artificial Light Suppresses Melatonin, Boosts Cancer

   (Friday, 03 September 2010 01:37)

University of Haifa researchers found evidence that Light At Night (LAN) has harmful health effects. Bright city lights might boost your risks of cancer by suppressing melatonin production. The results show once again the clear link between LAN and cancer: the cancerous growths in mice exposed to “short days” were smallest (0.85 cubic cm. average), while those mice exposed to the interval of LAN during dark hours had larger growths (1.84 cubic cm. average) and those exposed to “long days” even larger growths (5.92 cubic cm. average). The study also discovered that suppression of melatonin definitely influences development of the...

— 5 Nanometer Computer Chips

   (Thursday, 02 September 2010 03:26)

While Moore's Law for increasing computer chip transistor density won't go on for more than another 20 years it is still happening. Intel introduced 32 nanometer chips in 2009 and will introduce 22 nm chips in 2011. The New York Times reports on Rice University and Hewlett-Packard researchers who have developed 5 nanometer logic devices. These chips store only 1,000 bits of data, but if the new technology fulfills the promise its inventors see, single chips that store as much as today’s highest capacity disk drives could be possible in five years. The new method involves filaments as thin as...

— Airplanes, Telecomm Cut Optimal City Size

City size needed for successful industries has shrunk due to cheap air flights and low costs and high speeds for telecommunications and internet access. EAST LANSING, Mich. -- A city’s size no longer is the key factor in building vibrant local economies, according to a study by a Michigan State University sociologist. Zachary Neal found that although America's largest cities once had the most sophisticated economies, today that honor goes to cities with many connections to other places, regardless of their size. The study was published online Aug. 30 in the research journal City and Community. The rise of commercial...

HANOVER, MD, September 1, 2010 – Passengers who fly in Developing World countries face 13 times the risk of being killed in an air accident as passengers in the First World. The more economically advanced countries in the Developing World have better overall safety records than the others, but even their death risk per flight is seven times as high as that in First World countries. These results come from research by Arnold Barnett, a prof at...

— Surrogacy And Reproductive Tourism In India

   (Wednesday, 01 September 2010 03:22)

Rent-a-womb is a big international business in India. You can outsource just about any work to India these days, including making babies. Reproductive tourism in India is now a half-a-billion-dollar-a-year industry, with surrogacy services offered in 350 clinics across the country since it was legalized in 2002. The primary appeal of India is that it is cheap, hardly regulated, and relatively safe. Note this combination: Hardly regulated and safe. I bet surrogacy dad Patri Friedman is not surprised. Once it becomes possible to create eggs by turning adult cells back into stem cells even women in their later 40s and...

— Church Attendance Beats Shopping For Happiness?

   (Wednesday, 01 September 2010 02:39)

More shopping or less church attendances reduces happiness? BEER-SHEVA, ISRAEL, August 31, 2010 – A new study conducted by a Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (BGU) researcher, together with a researcher from De-Paul University, reveals that women in the United States generally derive more happiness from religious participation than from shopping on Sundays. Additionally, the repeal of "blue laws," which allow stores to open on Sundays, has a negative effect on the level of religious participation of white women and therefore has a negative impact on their happiness. Interestingly, the authors did not observe any significant decline in reported happiness...

— Benefits From Moderate Alcohol?

   (Tuesday, 31 August 2010 02:39)

One study finds longer life expectancies among moderate drinkers. They found that moderate drinkers tended to live longer across a 20-year follow-up compared to heavy drinkers and teetotalers. Mortality risk was 42% higher for heavy drinkers and 49% higher for abstainers than moderate drinkers. Another finds moderate wine consumption correlates with better brain performance. A large prospective study of 5033 men and women in the Tromsø Study in northern Norway has reported that moderate wine consumption is independently associated with better performance on cognitive tests. The subjects (average age 58 and free of stroke) were followed over 7 years during...

— Genetic Basis For Whether To Respond To Surveys

   (Tuesday, 31 August 2010 01:30)

If you ignore surveys in the mail and hang up on surveyors on the phone your genes are telling you to do it. Next time a phone surveyor calls up I'm going to tell them "My genes compel me to hang up on you". So I've got that to look forward to. A new study from North Carolina State University shows that genetics play a key factor in whether someone is willing to take a survey. “We wanted to know whether people are genetically predisposed to ignore requests for survey participation,” says Dr. Lori Foster Thompson, an associate professor of...

— 4 Week Overeating Period Changes Metabolism

   (Tuesday, 31 August 2010 01:20)

Just 4 weeks of pigging out runs the risk of shifting your physiology toward a long term greater propensity to gain weight. A short period of excess food consumption can have long term effects on your body weight and fat storage even after the initial weight is lost. A study published in BioMed Central's open access journal Nutrition & Metabolism has found that a four-week episode of increased energy intake and decreased exercise can cause increased weight and fat mass more than two years later when compared to control individuals. Åsa Ernersson worked with a team of researchers from Linköping...

— End Time Believers Want To Feel Special?

   (Sunday, 29 August 2010 23:54)

Do you feel special? So special that you think you live in a unique time? Andrew Stuttaford thinks vanity is behind the belief of many people who believe they live in the end time or in the time where great disaster will befall us. I’ve long suspected that amongst those who believe that the apocalypse is just round the corner, a certain vanity may well be at work – the belief that their time is somehow special. Stuttaford points to a Scientific American article on why humans have a tendency to believe they live in a special end time: it...

— Anesthesiologists Demand To Outrun Supply?

   (Sunday, 29 August 2010 17:42)

Will a 3% per year growth in demand for anesthesiologists in the United States outrun supply? A recent study from the RAND Corporation, one of the country’s most trusted analytic organizations, finds a current shortage of 3,800 anesthesiologists and 1,282 nurse anesthetists. However, if current trends continue, a dramatic shortage of anesthesiologists and a significant surplus of nurse anesthetists are projected by 2020. This brings up some questions that I do not have answers for. But the questions are pretty interesting and worth investigating: Is it necessary today to have 1 anesthesiologist per operation? Or could a small number of...

— Drug Success Against Malignant Melanoma

   (Friday, 27 August 2010 02:01)

A drug aimed at a genetic mutation common with malignant melanoma reduces tumors in most patients who had the mutation. An experimental drug designed to block the effects of a genetic mutation often found in patients with malignant melanoma, a deadly cancer with few existing treatments, significantly shrank tumors in about 80 percent of those who carried the mutation. Click thru and read all the details. A small percentage of the patients experienced disappearance of tumours. But do not expect it at a doctor's office any time soon. Further studies are needed before the drug can be approved by the...

— Marriage Does Not Change Personalities

   (Friday, 27 August 2010 01:40)

Personalities of married people do not converge. Since personality types are so stable this result is not surprising. But it cuts against a mythology about marriage. The researchers analyzed the data of 1,296 married couples, one of the largest such studies to date, said Humbad, MSU doctoral candidate in clinical psychology. The data came from the Minnesota Center for Twin and Family Research. The researchers wanted to know if husbands and wives become more similar as the marriage progressed. They examined a host of personality characteristics and found that, in most cases, the couples did not become more alike with...

— Symbian – Needs to Revolutionize Or Revitalize to Survive in the Smartphone Market

   (Tuesday, 07 September 2010 14:00)

In a recent survey conducted by Gartner, the Symbian platform showed that it was still the undisputed champion of smartphone OSs. However, with the recent explosive growth of the iPhone along with the buildup of Android, webOS, BlackBerry and Windows Mobile, this may become a thing of the past. Symbian has traditionally had the largest marketshare due to the long-term strategic planning of the platform. What are now considered standard features for smartphone OSs’ such as app stores, firmware updates, developer SDKs, etc were all pioneered by Symbian. Unfortunately, it seems as if the technology was well ahead of its...

— In the Ring – Samsung PN50A650 Vs Pioneer Kuro PDP-5020FD

You might be looking at this matchup and thinking why I’m comparing these two products. The Samsung is a great deal cheaper than the Pioneer, often about half the price, so why even bother? The reasoning behind this is that I’m a sucker for value. Sometimes, I find value in mid-range products such as the Samsung in this comparison, and sometimes in a premium(ish) product such as the Pioneer. I think it’s well worth looking into which TV is really more “worth it.” Even though price separates these two TVs by a mile, they’re actually pretty evenly matched up in...

— AT&T Cingular 8525 Smartphone Has HSDPA – What?
