New 4G Hd Ipad 3 Apple S New Ipad Is A 3 1 Megapixel Party

Media Platforms Design TeamThe rumor mill that anticipates every Apple announcement is getting pretty good these days. As the gaggle of Cupertino-watchers predicted, Apple CEO Tim Cook got up onstage today and rolled out a new iPad with a Retina display and optional 4G LTE. Oh yeah, there was also a hardware and software upgrade to the Apple TV, giving it a very iOS-like interface and 1080p output. (But no Apple-branded TVs, though, which I’ve always believed would be a terrible idea anyway....

New Bio Glue Stops Post Traumatic Bleeding In Its Tracks

When someone gets a severe injury, the injury itself might not even be what’s causing them the most harm—it could likely be the post-traumatic bleeding. In fact, uncontrolled post-traumatic bleeding is the leading cause of potentially preventable death among trauma patients, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH).That’s why Chinese researchers have developed what they call a “biological glue,” which they hope will one day be able to prevent hearts and arteries from bleeding uncontrollably....

One Part Of The Ocean Is Getting Colder Thanks To Medieval Climate Change

Climate change is causing the oceans to warm at an alarming rate, but new research finds that not all the water in the oceans is actually getting warmer. According to new research, deep in the Pacific one region is actually getting colder. This decreasing temperature in the ocean depths is also caused by climate change, but not the modern kind we’re so familiar with. Instead, this cooling is caused by a minor ice age that happened hundreds of years ago....

Back in the glory days of 2008, just about every ATV company built a sport machine. But today’s ATV market is afflicted with an acute case of pragmatism, rife with blocky four-wheel-drives fitted with cargo racks and hitches. The implication seems to be that fun for its own sake is irresponsible—you use your utility quad to clear brush off the back 40; any entertainment is purely incidental....

Re Discovering The Car S Cassette Deck

Once upon a time, long before there were music downloads and MP3 players, even before there were compact discs (you do remember CDs, don’t you?), there were records. These vinyl platters had grooves with lots of tiny bumps in them. The records spun on a special turntable and the bumps vibrated a tiny stylus as—oh, never mind all that, I’m getting sidetracked. One trouble with records was that you couldn’t play them in your car while driving....

Russia S Mig 31 Spotted With Possible Anti Satellite Missile

A mysterious fighter with a new, large missile suspended underneath could be a Russian anti-satellite weapon. The MiG-31 “Foxhound” interceptor was spotted last month at an aircraft test site near Moscow carrying a missile that could be used as an anti-satellite weapon or a means of quickly placing small satellites in orbit. According to Aviation Week & Space Technology, an experimental MiG-31 flew its first flight in September at the Zhukovsky aviation research center southeast of Moscow....

Scientists Are Searching For Our Sun S Stellar Siblings

The sun is but one of billions of stars in the Milky Way galaxy, and a small handful of those billions of stars are the sun’s siblings. Our host star formed in a nebula billions of years ago alongside dozens, or possibly hundreds of other stars. Since then, however, the stars that began their lives together have wandered apart, and it’s nearly impossible for scientists to determine which out of 150 billion stars are the ones that formed with our own....

This Crazy Cheap Technology Can Turn Carbon Dioxide Into Fuel

It sounds a bit like an environmental dream: a factory that sucks carbon dioxide from the air itself (cheaply, too), and converts it into fuel that can be used for cars and planes. But it’s an actual project developed by scientists from Harvard University and Carbon Engineering, a Bill Gates funded company. If the new process is successfully implemented at scale, it could mean a more “optimistic” future for climate change....

Weird Prehistoric Plant Turns Out To Be Weird Prehistoric Animal

Algae? Fungi? Some other type of plant? The Ediacaran organisms, ancient life forms that were common on in the Earth’s oceans half a billion years ago, have puzzled scientists for decades. Now two paleontologists feel confident that the ancient species were something completely different: animals that were unlike any seen on Earth today. Scientists have discovered nearly 200 different types of Ediacarans within ancient rocks around the globe since the first discovery in the 1940s....

Why All That Driver Safety Tech Might Not Make Your Car Insurance Cheaper After All
