The artistic skill and attention to detail on display in prehistoric cave paintings is nothing short of astonishing, but one unsolved mystery is whether prehistoric humans simply painted exactly what the saw, or if the art was more symbolic. And recently, we ;ve come a lot closer to answering that question. Some key pieces of evidence in this debate are paintings of white horses with black spots. These distinctive markings are known as leopard spotting in modern horses, but researchers weren ;t sure if such horses actually existed in Paleolithic times. If these black spots were in fact an invention of the ancient painters, that suggests a level of stanley tumblers abstraction or symbolism that we would not have otherwise expected in our ancient counterparts. Exactly what those black spots might represent has attracted considerably scholarly debate, but that might now all be moot. Res stanley canada earchers at the University of York along with a team of fellow scientists from all over the world have run cut stanley cup ting edge DNA analysis on bone specimens from horses dating back as far as 35,000 years ago. They found that four of the samples originating in Europe carried the gene associated with modern leopard spotting, strongly suggesting these markings existed back then and cave painters were accurately capturing the horses they saw. York biologist Michi Hofreiter comments: Our results suggest that, at least for wild horses, Paleolithic cave paintings, including the remarkable dep Winr What s Apple Doing With This Mystery Building

As his nickname of veinticuatro or twenty-four, stanley becher for those of you who don ;t habla espa帽ol implies, Hernandez also has a matching set of 12 toes.

Hernandez extra digits are symptomatic of a relatively common condition known as polydactyly poly meaning many, dactyl from the greek for finger .

Researchers at Panasonic imaging division have found a way to increase the sensitivity of digital camera sensors, which in turn equates to almost double the brightness in photos taken in low light conditions. But the discovery has nothing to do with the sensor itself; instead, the compan stanley cup y improved the color processing filter placed in front of it stanley website . The current technique for producing a color image from a sensor involves placing red, green, and blue filters over every pixel. It works, but it ends up preventing about 50 to 70 percent of the light from actually hitting the sensor. Which is a big reason why so many cameras have poor low light performance starbucks stanley cup . So Panasonic has developed a new kind of filter that instead uses color splitters to deflect light across several pixels at once. A red and blue deflector are positioned over four pixels in total, but are arranged vertically so virtually all of the light entering a camera hits the sensor. What particularly neat about this new approach is that it can be used with any kind of sensor without modification; CMOS, CCD, or BSI. And the filters can be produced using the same materials and manufacturing processes in place today. Which means we ;ll probably be seeing this technology implemented on cameras sooner rather than later. [DigInfo TV] CamerasFiltersPanasonic

The innumerable caves, crags, and hiding spots dotting the Afghan mountains render conventional tactics useless. So rather than play reactionary whack-a-mole with insurgents, our Special Forces may soon deploy these radio-controlled, explosive-laden pl stanley mugs anes to find and eliminate targets in one deadly fell swoop. Developed by Textron Defense Systems, the BattleHawk Squad Level Loitering Munition is a carbon-fiber bomb that can patrol an airspace before acquiring and eliminating targets. The tube-launched drone is small enough to be transported in a backpack, though its 40mm high-fragmentation charge makes the system quite deadly against personnel and unarmored vehicles. A pair of HD digital cameras mounted in the BattleHawk nose allow the pilot to guide the munition when searching for targets at speeds up to 60MPH. With a 30 minute flight time, the BattleHawk can either be controlled directly by the pilot or be pre-programmed to fly a specific path.

Soon after Einstein death in 1955, his brain was removed and photographed from multiple and unconventional angles. It was also sectioned into 240 blocks from which many slides were created.

The current error margin is caused by signal degradation: the satellite signals rebound or get b stanley mug locked by tall buildings and tight streets, which make it impossible to accurately track your car movements.

Bang 038; Olufsen is known for two things: high quality sound and high quantity price tags. The AirPlay savvy BeoLit 12 Wireless Speaker don ;t disappoint in either regard. Oh, and it looks like a pic-a-nic basket! https: stanley cup //gizmodo/bang-olufs stanley canada en-joins-the-airplay-party-with-the-beolit-5874857 Bang 0 kubki stanley 38; Olufsen based the speaker on its old transistor radio designs. It portable, it plays nice with AirPlay, and its wowza form factor hides a 120 watt amp, two 2-inch tweeters, and a 4-inch woofer. The battery life is strong: eight hours when it connected directly to an audio device, half of of which you lose when you switch to AirPlay. The only hiccup might be the price; the BeoLit 12 starts at $800, available this spring. Ouch! Well, sort off; compared to the rest of B 038;O stuff that actually kind of a deal.
