These guys are completely nuts. Going through NYC at rush hour, cutting off pedestrians and cars in intersection. But what would otherwise be the fun in going on a bike in NYC ? This has to be the most time-efficient mode of transportation at rush! Pretty cool video, watch it, and you won't regret it!

This is the 1st automated parking garage installed in New York. Fully automated, it functions similar to an elevator, by placing your car underground in a free parking spot. It's really cool considering that it saves not only your time, but also lots of space, and money because it doesn't have driveways!

A black guy (famous actor Yaphet Kotto played in Alien, The running man) tries to get a cab in New York city, and after him, a couple of meters back, a white guy who did time in prison. For whom will the cab stop? Well, not for the black guy, that's for sure!

From the "Tonight Show" with Jay Leno, this is a part of it called "Ask the Fruit Cake Lady". She is simply hilarious. Enjoy and remember that the fruitcake lady knows best ;) !

Daniela Peštová is a sexy Czech born supermodel, that currently leaves in New York. She appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue three times, and also in magazines like GQ, Cosmopolitan, Glamour and ELLE. That being said, nothing more remains, than for you to watch this sexy video photo shoot of Daniela Peštová!

Cancer threatens the conservation of some wild species because it represents one of the top causes of death. This was also recently featured on the Discovery Channel. Cancer affects some animals with the same effect as in human beings, and could be the cause of extinction of some wild species. The researchers say the Society of Preservation of Fauna and Flora of New York have found an increase in cancer cases in wild animals in recent years. According to their findings, published in Nature Reviews Cancer, the species most affected are those at risk of extinction, like the Tasmanian devil, a small marsupial carnivore, already decimated in the late nineties by a rare form of transmissible cancer (the devil facial tumor). The cause is unknown, but it has been shown that malignant cells are able to spread among the samples and through bites during fights. To save the species, biologists are now isolating infected animals in zoos or reserves. Denise McAloose and Alisa Newton, authors of the study, have investigated the possible causes of cancer in different species, and have found a correlation between cancer and pollution. For example, for the living beluga in the estuary of the St. Lawrence River (Canada), a form of bowel cancer is the second leading cause of death. The culprit could be an organic compound (a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon that is found in oil, but also in municipal waste), already known to be carcinogenic for our species.

Particles in a confined microscopic space, move in a coordinated manner and can be manipulated and observed with a precision never achieved. A nano-trap can be imagined as a tube the size of a billionth of a meter in which electrons are closed to study their behavior. Thus, scientists from the centers of the Italian Institute for physics of matter of Cnr "S3", Modena and "Nest" of Pisa in collaboration with Columbia University in New York, were able to observe with great precision the behavior of a quartet of electrons confined in one of these structures. Result: the particles move in a coordinated manner and with precise frequencies and can be manipulated. The study was published in Nature Phisics. As it is known, the physics of the matter the size of an atom or less follows different laws than those of classical physics. According to these principles, which fall in quantum physics, the behavior of particles such as electrons can not be described as we are used to (for larger bjects),but it is outlined mainly in terms of probabilistic forecasts. The technique developed by Cnr made it possible to determine the frequency of vibrations of particles through the use of a beam of laser light. The electrons in a nano-trap can only move in a coordinated manner and in accordance with the laws of quantum mechanics, vibrate at frequencies well defined that, thanks to this method, was possible to measure with unprecedented precision.

Cloned cells were transplanted into the brain of mice who suffered from this disease and they replaced sick neurons. The success of therapeutic cloning in mice. Researchers of the Sloan-Kettering Institute in New York, led by neuro-scientist Lorenz Studer, have treated the guinea pigs suffering from Parkinson with the transplantation of embryonic stem cells obtained from the skin of rodents themselves sick. The experiment, described in Nature Medicine, not only has recorded cases of rejection, but also significant improvements in the evolution of clinical pathology. The group Studer - after having caused lesions in the brains of mice that would determine the same effects of Parkinson's disease - has transferred the nuclei of cells inside the tail skin cell mouse egg "emptied" of its nucleus, through the technique known as therapeutic cloning (or Scnt, Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer). The cloned cells, cultivated, were then developed into blastocysts. The researchers thus generated 187 lines of embryonic stem cells from 24 different mice, most of which later differentiate into neurons capable of producing dopamine.
