Toys That Protect Kids From Pervs
Children want to get on the internet, but what shields them from predators? Alexander Gelfand reports on new approaches from the American International Toy Fair in New York. Augmented Reality Technology May Improve Communication In Poultry Plan
Technology that transfers computer-generated information onto the physical world is being tested for use in poultry plants to improve communication between computers and workers. Using augmented reality (AR) technology, researchers have designed two systems that project graphical instructions from an automated inspection system onto birds on a processing line. These symbols tell workers how to trim or whether to discard defective products. CareerJournal.com: 50+Professionals

If you wonder where you stand in the social pecking order at work, home and in the community, a little known group of primates found only in the highlands of Ethiopia may offer some clues. Psychology and anthropology researchers have spent more than a decade studying the social skills of non-human primates, focusing their attention on behavioral stress, aggression, social status and mate choice. Hubble Yields Direct Proof Of Stellar Sorting In A Globular Cluster
A seven-year study with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has provided astronomers with the best observational evidence yet that globular clusters sort out stars according to their mass. Heavier stars slow down and sink to the cluster's core, while lighter stars pick up speed and move across the cluster to its periphery. This process, called "mass segregation,"has long been suspected for globular star clusters, but has never before been directly seen in action. [Scary] Pregnant woman says 'maternal instinct' helped her kill attack
FORT MITCHELL, Ky. - A pregnant woman who killed her attacker said a maternal instinct helped her fight off the woman who investigators believe was after her unborn child."I do believe that I fought harder because it was for my child,"Sarah Brady told ABC's "Good Morning America"in interviews aired Sunday and Monday. "It is a maternal instinct to protect your child to the very end."Katherine Smith, 22, died Thursday after luring Brady to her apartment to pick up a package supposedly delivered to the wrong address. When Smith pulled out a knife and attacked the pregnant woman, Brady fought back, striking Smith on the head with an ash tray and stabbing her three times with her own knife, police said. Brady, 26, said she didn't know Smith before the two met at Smith's apartment and can't be certain why Smith wanted to kill her."I really am not sure what was going through her mind,"Brady told ABC. "The only thing I thought was that she was going to kill me and my child and that is the only thing that ran through my mind." Rapid New Process For Fabricating Microstructures From Protein
In an advance in microfabrication technology, scientists report development of a new method for rapidly engineering complex micro-scale patterns and three-dimensional microstructures from biocompatible protein. The Dynamics Of Rocky Inclines
It is common to see banks or inclines on the roadside or at the side of railway cuttings. They are formed when a side of a mountain or other earth feature is cut through for the construction of various infrastructure. As they are unstable zones, many problems are created and, in the case of the Basque Country. Blue Lighting Up The Human Brain At Work
The human brain uses light not just to support vision but also to support alertness and cognitive tasks. Which colors of light are most effective and where in the brain these non-visual effects can be seen was previously not known. Now researchers have 'shed some novel light'on these issues by using functional magnetic resonance (fMRI) brain imaging while the participant were engaged on a working memory task. Less Invasive Lymph Node Biopsy Method Could Spare Thousands Unnecessa
Using an ultrasound-guided fine needle to biopsy lymph nodes could spare thousands of melanoma patients every year worldwide from having to undergo unnecessary and sometimes unpleasant surgery to verify whether their cancer has spread, new research indicates.
