Sharks developing a taste for humans
2008-06-09 14:14:00 Scientists fear packs of bull sharks are now actively hunting humans for the first time after a series of horrifying attacks in the waters off a popular resort. The theory emerged after two surfers were killed and one badly injured in a month. A fourth swimmer is missing at the Mexican seaside town. Locals fear one rogue shark is responsible but experts believe a pack of deadly bull sharks are actively targeting humans for the first time.

A Database for humans (even creative ones)
2008-05-20 16:00:00 Databases are one of those things most often shrouded in arcane technical mystery. For those who've yet to utilize a database in a personal or meaningful way, it s easy to dismiss them as belonging to IT nerds and the heavy demands of major corporations needing to keep track of vast amounts of data.Stalwarts of database software developers, Filemaker Pro, have made a new effort at humanizing database software with Bento, a software app designed specifically for personal users and developed exclusively for Mac OSX Leopard. Bento aims at presenting an open framework that can be assembled to meet specific users needs while retaining template based drag-and-drop functionality. To a very large degree Bento achieves this balance, keeping flexibility and accessibility in equal measure.In broad terms, the key purpose of a database is to act not so much as a place to store information but rather, more importantly, a means by which information can be retrieved and found, sorted and arrayed. ...

Cow Farts Cause More Global Warming Than Humans?
2008-05-12 04:54:00 The latest rightwing crap.I was on a rightwing blog a couple of years ago and decided to ask how many believed in global warming. The vast majority did not. A few said it was happening, but it was natural. One or two said it was happening, but no one knew what was causing it, and we needed to study it more.This blog has unfortunately become infested lately with some young White male 20-something reactionary-to-libertarian trolls who are lurking in the comments section.It's quite simple to be a libertarian when you are young, dumb and full of cum. I voted Libertarian at age 22. I'd never do it again, but that's how you learn. People that age just haven't been fucked hard enough and enough times by life yet. By the time we are 40, most of us have had about a million horrible things happen to us, and narcissism is on sharp decline. That's why age and wisdom are traditionally synonymous.They're causing a lot of dissension, but echo chambers are boring. Comments rules forbid me f...

Hippo Attire For Humans.
2008-05-08 19:45:00 Hippo Attire For Humans.One needs to get closer to a hippo to take its sweat sample (protect them from the sun), & getting closer to a thing which weighs more than 6000+ pounds is not something simple. And that's where Dr. Barr (naturalist) came up with this idea. For what he thought is a 'perfect answer' wasn't so. Later he realized that the weight of the attire was just too much for him. When he got stuck in the mud, he had no option but to radio for backup, & he came out safely from the situation.

We the Humans: Animal Violence
2008-05-04 22:06:00 Why do we refuse to put the brutal game of racing in the realm of mistreatment of animals? At what point do we at least raise the question about the efficacy of thousand-pound horses racing at full throttle on spindly legs?Eight Belles was another victim of a brutal sport that is carried, literally, on the backs of horses. Horsemen like to talk about their thoroughbreds and how they were born to run and live to run. The reality is that they are made to run, forced to run for profits they never see.And who knows how many horses die anonymous deaths? Eight Belles, we?ll write, was merely the casualty of a brutal game.But one death is too many. The miracle of the sport of kings is that there aren?t more. But how many more do we need? http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/-04/sports/othersports/04rhoden.-html?hp
Humans nearly wiped out 70,000 years ago, study says
2008-04-25 15:11:00 Human beings may have had a brush with extinction 70,000 years ago, an extensive genetic study suggests.The human population at that time was reduced to small isolated groups in Africa, apparently because of drought, according to an analysis released Thursday. The report notes that a separate study by researchers at Stanford University estimated that the number of early humans may have shrunk as low as 2,000 before numbers began to expand again in the early Stone Age. "This study illustrates the extraordinary power of genetics to reveal insights into some of the key events in our species' history," said Spencer Wells, National Geographic Society explorer in residence. "Tiny bands of early humans, forced apart by harsh environmental conditions, coming back from the brink to reunite and populate the world. Truly an epic drama, written in our DNA." Wells is director of the Genographic Project, launched in 2005 to study anthropology using genetics. The report was published in the Am...

Permaculture - Looking at Organic Gardening and Humans
2008-04-02 15:07:00 If asked to describe Permaculture as a system one would say it is a philosophy of using the land based upon the natural energy patterns and material flows from within nature. As a system It is one of the most holistic, analysis and design methodologies in our the world. Permaculture is not limited to an exact method of production, more so it is a "land use planning" philosophy of which the principles may be adapted worldwide to farms, homes, individual neighborhoods, and cities. It is site specific as such adaptable to local micro-climates, cultures, and techniques of production.The Father of the Organic Farming movement, Sir Albert Howard, was known for making logical solutions for farming problems. He focused on encouraging the incorporation of plant wastes and both human and animal manures into composts for soil conditioning. As we know today, this can be used safely to restore soil fertility. It also makes more sense than using expensive chemical fertilisers.In 1978 Bill Molliso...

Farmed Fish Fed Cheap Food May Be Less Nutritious For Humans
2008-03-03 06:09:00 When the diets of farmed fish are altered, the food we ingest also changes। For his doctorate, Sverre Ludvig Seierstad investigated the biological consequences of exchanging the fish oils commonly used in fish feed with vegetable oils. What consequences might this have on both fish and human health? The research project “Fjord til bord (Fjord to table)” has been a collaboration between the Norwegian School of Veterinary Science, the National institute for Nutrition and Seafood Research (NIFES), Nutreco ARC and Ullevål University Hospital. The main ingredients of fish feed have traditionally been of marine origin. For several reasons, including increased demand for and production of farmed fish, and climatic considerations, feed ingredients of marine origin are becoming both scarce and expensive. The fish farming industry therefore wishes to utilise alternative lipid (fat) sources in feed used for salmon farming.Vegetable oils have been shown to stimulate the appetite and fee...

Will Andrew Symonds ever behave like humans do?
2008-02-24 13:19:00 I appreciate his knack of taking runs, not his knack of making spectators his enemies. He doesn't like an Indian player appreciating the performance of an Australian – he will take offence on every such occasion.If he is clean bowled, the bowler can't celebrate it. You get the picture, I am talking about Andrew Symonds, the cricketer from Australia known for his locked hair, always wrinkled forehead and always smeared face.See how he reacts after his dismissal in today's match (Sydney, Feb 24). He barks at the bowler, for which he promptly gets direction to the pavilion by the bowler, Ishant Sharma.Only a few weeks back has he brought the cricketing world to a standstill after finding the reasons for a world war, when Harbhajan Singh patted Brett Lee. Symonds told Harbhajan he has no friends in Australian team. Harbhajan's retaliation disturbed Symonds so much, the latter wanted the former to be punished for racial abuse.During the appeals hearing, Symonds reiterated that cric...
