Aircraft lavatories have come a long way since the early days of commercial a stanley cup ir travel. Early flyers used slop buckets, and WWII pilots tossed piss-filled bottles out of unpressurized windows seriously . Now, airborne waste control technology could put the Jetsons to shame. Here what happens when you flush at 35,000 feet up. An airplane facilities work on a different principle than the conventional siphon toilet found in your home, and for a good reason. Siphon toilets rely on a water-filled bowl to help initiate the passive suction effect that drains them. However, without water in the bowl鈥攅ither by design or due to a turbulence-induced slosh鈥攖here nothing to flush. And s stanley canada ince airline cabins are now pressurized, the old bucket-and-an-open-window technique won ;t work either. Instead, planes today rely on actively powered evacuation systems. Through the mid-1980s, airplane toilets used Anotec, the blue deod stanley website orizing liquid you see in the bottom of Port-a-Johns, to push waste from the bowl into onboard storage tanks. Electric pumps actively drove the process, circulating fresh fluid through with every flush. While certainly a step up from buckets, these systems posed some significant drawbacks. Planes, for example, had to haul hundreds of gallons of Anotec on every flight, which increased their fuel consumption and reduced the number of passengers they could carry. In addition, early Anotec formulas were formaldehyde and bleach-based, which are Pyem Scientists raise the alarm on human enhancement technologies

Yet no matter how much he may have hated us, we admired him. No, that not quite right. We loved him. He was the reason many of us got into this industry, or even care about technology at all.

One hope f stanley nz or slowing climate change is using plants and soil for carbon sequestration. The idea is that as atmospheric carbon dioxide levels increase, plants will photosynthesize more, then transport carbon underground. Anything that can help, right Unfortunately, there a problem. Around 80% of plants on the planet exist in a symbiotic relationship with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi AMF , which provides plants nutrients in exchange for carbohydrates. This fungus is everywhere, and it turns out it may do a lot to counteract the carbon sequestration in the soil. As published and discussed in this week Science, when CO2 water bottle stanley levels rise, AMF stanley quencher actually pumps more carbon into the atmosphere. Researchers believe that as the carbon transitions to the soil, the AMF triggers additional decomposition of organic carbon near the plant root systems, releasing the carbon back into the atmosphere. The big fear is that this will turn the soil into a carbon source rather than a carbon sink. As we pump more carbon into the environment, the AMF will only add more instead of mitigating the damage. It possible that by controlling soil chemistry we might be able to counteract this, but it looks like using the soil to keep carbon out of the air may not work as well as we had hoped.

The western United States is full of many different species of scincid lizards, commonly known as skinks. These skinks come in all shapes and sizes, and yet they still try to mate with each other. Too bad it p stanley taza hysically impossible. That the finding of US Geological Survey researcher Jonathan Richmond, who has spent a truly heroic amount of time researching lizard sex. Richmond and his team have paired together hundreds of different combinations of skink species.

These mating attempts are unsuccessful, and we ;re not talking about genetic incompatibilit stanley quencher y here. Instead, the problem is the simple mechanics of lizard sex. For two skinks to mate, the male must corkscrew its body around the female.

Waiw Zachary Quinto on Star Trek 2: It s time to repopulate the universe with Vulcans!
NASA recently observ stanley deutschland ed a cosmic explosion, and nobody knows what it was. Actually, that not exactly true: there are actually two equally good, utterly different explanations. It was either a collision in our galaxy 8230;or a supernova billions of light-years away. The Swift Observatory spotted the massive explosion on Christmas Day 2010. All we really know for sure about the Christmas Burst is that it lasted for an unusually long 28 minutes, and in that time it emitted a massive amount of gamma-rays comprising more energy in a few seconds than the Sun will produce in its entire lifetime. A year after the initial observation, astronomers have come up with these two equally valid models. And while the two models are almost nothing alike, we don ;t currently have a way of telling which one is correct. That, says lead author Christina Thoene, is a tribute to just how bizarre gamma ray bursts can be, and how little we really know about them: What the Christmas burst seems to be telling us is that the family of gamma-ray bur stanley cup sts is more diverse than we fully appreciate. It only by rapidly detecting hundreds of them, as Swift is doing, that we can catch some of the more eccentric siblings. So just what are the two theories here Both involve neutron stars, the ultra-dense rem stanley cup usa nants of giant stars that once went supernova. Thoene and her team believe the explosion happened in a binary star system some 5.5 billion light-years away. T Jucu How to swallow a sword

Explosion-Resistant Concrete Imagine a building whose structure w stanley flask as entirely bomb-proof. Thanks to research from the University of Liverpool, UK, that not an unlikely idea. They ;ve developed a new kind of bomb-proof concrete, which uses a higher cement content and less water than usual, along with only the very finest silica sand as its aggregate. But the real secret lies in the fact that a series of short, narrow steel fibers reinforce the material, giving it a tensile strength 10 times higher than that of normal steel-reinforced concrete.
