Kid tries to take selfie near an oncoming train; doesn’t work out very well… | Young Conservatives: "The weirdest part was his reaction. He was so excited to have gotten it on camera.

What is the best defense for protection when hiking and camping in the wilderness?

What is the best defense for protection when hiking and camping in the wilderness?: "Google bear attacks in USA, your odds of getting struck by lightening are greater than being attacked by a bear. (uh, not counting Alaska ;)

Mountain lions are also no big threat, maybe every couple years a hiker in Southern California gets jumped on.

Bandits are a different story. Depends on how far you are from the Mexican border.
Trouble makers? That's variable depending on where you are.
Not much to worry about though, if you are camping, remember... criminals tend to stay in cities and don't venture into the wild much"

The science of seasonal allergies — and why they’re so awful - Vox

The science of seasonal allergies — and why they’re so awful - Vox: "Seasonal allergies are the immune system's response to the millions of pollen grains — plant sperm cells — floating through the air every spring. By incorrectly interpreting pollen as a health threat, your body triggers an inflammatory response, leading to annoying symptoms like itchy eyes or runny noses. This is known as allergic rhinitis, or "hay fever.""

Drug-delivering nanoparticles pose a triple threat to cancer

Drug-delivering nanoparticles pose a triple threat to cancer: "Delivering drugs that can knock out tumor cells within the body, without causing adverse side effects, is a tricky busines. It's why scientists have taken to engineering new and creative types of nanoparticles that do the job. Increasing a nanoparticle's ability to carry more drugs expands treatment options, but creating nanoparticles capable of delivering more than one or two drugs has proven difficult – until now. Scientists at MIT report creating a revolutionary building block technique that's enabled them to load a nanoparticle with three drugs. The approach, they say, could be expanded to allow a nanoparticle to carry hundreds more."

The Surprising Science Behind Why and When We Yawn : The New Yorker

The Surprising Science Behind Why and When We Yawn : The New Yorker: "In 1923, Sir Francis Walshe, a British neurologist, noticed something interesting while testing the reflexes of patients who were paralyzed on one side of their bodies. When they yawned, they would spontaneously regain their motor functions. In case after case, the same thing happened; it was as if, for the six or so seconds the yawn lasted, the patients were no longer paralyzed. What’s more, Walshe reported that some of his patients had noticed “that when the fingers are extended and abducted during a yawn, they are able to flex and extend them rapidly, a thing they were unable to do at any other time. Indeed, one man added that he always waited for a yawn so that he might exercise his fingers in this way.”"

Amphicruiser: Amphibious 4WD based on Toyota Land Cruiser

Amphicruiser: Amphibious 4WD based on Toyota Land Cruiser: "We wanted it to be as solid on water as the Land Cruiser is on land." That's Dutch Amfibious Transport co-founder Dirk-Jan de Jong talking about his company's heavy duty amphibious 4WD, the Amphibicruiser. Built around a Toyota Land Cruiser engine, it's a fully fledged on and offroad cruiser that can be driven up a river or out to sea with next to no training."
