Here's a funny and pretty interesting game that you can play on your coffee brake at work: it's called Cubiz! The goal is to stack all the cubes one on top of the other witohut making it all go down. It's challenging, but definetly wirth your time! Cool! Enjoy!
Cubiz!
Build the highest tower in the world! Feel like an architect, improve your skills with every next cube and try to beat the current world record now!
Play online the free multiplayer game!
An interesting video showing UK forces probably in Iraq firing a Javelin guided rocket at an unknown target. Pretty cool, but NSFW language though!
A few snipers had been targeting US troops. Backup arrived in the form of a US helicopter gunship which obliterates them with the machine gun. Guess they were asking for it!
The Beretta Xtrema2 is an amazing weapon compared to anything seen so far. It's a recoilless shotgun, able to reach astounding shooting speeds. This guy shows his mastery of this guy by shooting it one handed, on different numbers of targets. It's pretty cool. Enjoy ;)
Who doesn't get out of the way, is pushed out of the way. That seems to be the motto of these American soldiers driving this Humvee in Iraq through the traffic. Stops are avoided at all costs, so that the soldiers in the Humvees are not to be an easy target for assailants.
Funny
This is a "must read"...
WTF..?!
Yes..but not as funny as their Japanese counterparts. I feel sorry for the store owners...the place looked like exactly like after a party. Brutal flash mob, eh? Sad!
Amazing
Here's the ultimate slow motion video in my opinion. Shot at 1 million fps, it shows the impact of different kind of bullets on different surfaces, like ice, concrete, glass, and others. As a bonus there is footage of shotgun pellets hitting the target. Really amazing and cool! Enjoy!
This guy should have been born at least 150-200 years ago when knowing how to use a weapon like this would have made him a hero (or at least Jesse James). Hell...it doesn't get better than this guy. Enjoy his skills!
Driving in summer can sometimes be ruined by those pesky bugs that hit the car's windshield. But did we ever stop to think that maybe we're the one's ruining their flight? The german newspaper "Der Spiegel" recently published some stunning photos taken under a microscope, which show in detail what happens when a bug hits the car's windshield.
This gun shooter is truly the fastest shooter in the world if not the fastest gun ever. You can see in this video how he hits 5 targets in under ONE second. It's mind bogglingly amazing to see him draw his gun, and destroy each individual target. Don't blink because you'll miss the hole thing! Enjoy this video of the fastest gun shooter in the world!
Technology and Health News
This study researched killing cancer cells with nano-magnets, with the same principle as a microwave oven.
The study of nano-particles applied to biomedicine continues to give interesting results, as research is still in its infancy. Through their work, the chemists from the university of Cagliari are now investigating some of the possibilities opened by this field. One is to use magnetic particles to convey the drugs only to the diseased cells, the other is to drive up the tumor and then force them to oscillate under the control of a variable magnetic field, thereby heating the target cells, just like a microwave oven does with the water molecules contained in food.
This second mechanism exploits hyperthermia. It appears that cancer cells can be destroyed by beeing brought to a temperature of 42.5 degrees Celsius for about half an hour.
In order arrive at the place desired, the particles must be incorporated into liposomes, hollow microspheres formed by lipid bilayers (for which reason they are called "magneto-liposomes"), which are able to overcome the barrier of cells. They must have a diameter of about 20 nanometers. Larger could indeed block blood vessels, while smaller particles may be "eaten" by macrophage cells which are in charge with the elimination of foreign bodies.
Currently, the research team is working on the synthesis of particles and study of their structural and magnetic properties. Currently these are being built in oxide of iron or iron cobalt. The latter are more manoeuvrable, because their magnetic properties depend strongly on the direction along which the field is applied to (property known as magnetic anisotropy).
The transfer of data will be hundred of times faster than that by radio waves. The promise is made by the first tests conducted by a German institute.
Receiving images in Google Earth or photos of the Hubble telescope in real time may soon be reality. A German institute has experienced a communication system based on lasers which will transfer data at a rate one hundred times higher than that possible with radio waves.
The technology was developed by researchers from the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology in Aachen on the company's Tesat GmbH & Co. under a project funded by the German Aerospace Center (Dlr).
At the Ifom-Ieo Campus, a study began on the operation of a molecule which opens new avenues of research for less toxic treatments in chemotherapie. The study in Cell magazine.
Developing new chemotherapies able to kill cancer cells without harming healthy ones: This is the goal that's still far away but we can see the light. Thanks to an international study to which has substantially contributed a team of Campus Ifom-Ieo (Foundation Institute of Molecular Oncology - European Institute of Oncology) in Milan, in fact, it was possible to identify a molecule - called Ndc80 - which could be the ideal target of new chemotherapeutic drugs, because it's active only when the cell reproduces (mitosis). The research, led by Andrea Musacchio in collaboration with Peter De Wulf, was published in the journal Cell.
One of the problems with current chemotherapies is that, in addition to attacking the cancer cells, in part it also kills healthy cells. This is because the drugs (for example, taxolo) affect proteins that, although mostly engaged in the process of cell proliferation (typical of tumor masses), they are also involved in other processes with other cells that are not sick. A molecule found only in reproducing cells would be the ideal target.
A study conducted by an Italian and published on Pnas shows that healthy cells, if required to "diet", have an increased resistance to stress caused by the drugs compared with those ill.
Fasting can be a weapon against the heavy effects of chemotherapy. Just as the fight against cancer concentrates its efforts on the so-called magic bullets, drugs capable of selectively target diseased cells from laboratories of the University of Southern California shows a new paradigm: protect healthy cells and then go furiously only against those sick . A team led by biologist Italian Valter Longo, which involved the United States laboratories and the hospital Gaslini of Genoa, has discovered a kind of magic screen that healthy cells (as a result of caloric restriction) have as a defense against chemotherapy. The results of the study appeared on Pnas Early Edition (here a link to the video.)
