The government plans to crack down on the scam used by faux beggars in growing numbers for a kind of "emotional blackmail", a cabinet minister was quoted as saying... [Funny] A referee has sent himself off in an English amateur league ma
Andy Wain had to abandon the Sunday league match between Peterborough North End and a Royal Mail side in the 63rd minute after throwing down his whistle and marching up to confront North End's keeper. Matrix Cam Spies Flying Bullets
A new camera tracks hot lead -- just like in the slow-motion "bullet time" scenes in The Matrix. The technology could lead to "active armor" that stops bullets midair. By David Hambling. Silver Nanoparticles Give Polymer Solar Cells A Boost
Small bits of metal may play a new role in solar power. Researchers are experimenting with polymer semiconductors that absorb the sun's energy and generate electricity. The goal: lighter, cheaper, and more-flexible solar cells. They have now discovered that adding tiny bits of silver to the plastic boosts the materials' electrical current generation. Using Supercomputers To Make Safer Nuclear Reactors
A new project will pair two of the world's most powerful supercomputers to boost the safety and reliability of next-generation nuclear power reactors. Scientists will create highly detailed computer models of a new proposed type of nuclear reactor. These models could play a key role for the future development of the new reactors, which meet stringent safety and nonproliferation criteria, can burn long-lived and highly radioactive materials, and can operate over a long time without using new fuel. Pornography Is Not the Decider
Everyone's wondering which DVD format adult studios will choose. But why? The future's about interaction and video-on-demand. Commentary by Regina Lynn. MRSA leads to worse outcomes, staggering expenses for surgical patient
Post-surgical infections significantly increase the chance of hospital readmission and death and cost as much as $60,000 per patient, according to researchers who conducted the largest study of its kind to date. Italian, US Cosmologists Present Explanation For Accelerating Expansio
Why is the universe expanding at an accelerating rate, spreading its contents over ever greater dimensions of space? An original solution to this puzzle, certainly the most fascinating question in modern cosmology, has been put forward by four theoretical physicists. Forever Young: Differentiation Blocked In Tumor Stem Cells
A new comparison of normal stem cells and cancer stem cells reveals that the cancer stem cells are abnormally trapped at an early stage of development. The research significantly advances the understanding of glioma pathophysiology and provides new directions for design of therapeutic strategies that are targeted to specific types of tumors. Developing Kryptonite For Superbug
University of Idaho researchers are crossing academic and geographical bounds to develop more effective defenses against Staphylococcus aureus bacteria and other deadly pathogens. One of the goals of that effort is to create much faster and more accurate identification of strains resistant to the antibiotic methicillin, formally known as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, or MRSA.
