A Sleep To Remember

Examination looming? But your waking-up-to-revise-early-in-the-morning method might not work. Try revise at night, right before you sleep to be precise.

207 healthy Harvard students were recruited by Jessica Payne from the University of Notre Dame, Indiana for this study. The participants were assigned to study semantically related or unrelated word pairs at 9am or 9pm.

Sea Cucumber Excrement Could Save Coral Reefs

Oceans around the world have been acting like carbon sponges for billions of years.

They suck in huge amount of carbon dioxide and thus maintaining the level of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere. But the continuous rise of carbon dioxide level due to anthropogenic activities causes the oceans to become acidic. Low water pH is detrimental to coral reefs and aquatic lives, annihilating delicate reefs and fish eggs.

Penile Fracture

It normally happens during sexual intercourse, when you perform an unimaginable acrobatic on your bullish pole, a flying leap perhaps, instead of a simple penetration. 

Yes, penis can break guys.

Australia is a broken continent, ravaged by the European rabbit, red fox, cane toad, and other invasive species. Any hope of preserving a pristine Australian ecology is long gone.

How To Keep Yourself Sterile?

Fancy a night out without having to fabricate a layer of rubber on your genital?

Some forty years ago, in 1975, Mostofa Fahim and his group of researchers from the University of Missouri published a paper on male contraception--they were looking at contraceptive methods without resorting to condom.

They strapped anesthetized rats to a plexiglass platform and subjected their dangling scrota to various testing. Some of the animals got a 140-degree Fahrenheit water bath for 15 minutes, some received a dose of infrared radiation, some got a short blast of microwave or ultrasound. After the test, the males were free to copulate with females until they impregnated them.

Which Is More Important: Human Welfare VS Animal Welfare?

When a tiger starts killing people, regardless of how endangered it may be, it has to be put down. Similarly, if the extinction of a particular species could ensure the survival of mankind, hand me the shotgun please.

Of course, thing has yet to go that far. We're not facing some kind of apocalypse, and certainly not extermination by aliens so we can still work on sustainable development to achieve a win-win situation. But some people, and I seriously mean some people, emphasize the well-being of animals more than the well-bring of their own kind. And I'm not talking about the Japanese-hunting-whales-thingy. I'm against that, too.

Some animal rights activists had recently pressured airlines and ferry companies against transporting animals to the UK for research purposes.

Poets Get The Girls?

Had a chat with a friend on facebook, and she said poetic guys get most of the girls.

That was a very depressing news for me. And the most depressing of them all being; one of her friends, a modern day Shakespears, has had like, five girlfriends, or more? He's not exactly good looking, and probably a little bit more talented than Bieber, a lil chubby, and he currently has a hot girlfriend who looks like one of those Korean movie stars.

Cara Menulis Tesis Yang Betul

Ramai di antara kita perlu menulis tesis pada akhir pengajian kita. Tesis merupakan laporan kajian yang kita lakukan terutamanya pada semester terakhir untuk memenuhi kehendak atau syarat kursus universiti.

Namun ramai di antara kita yang selalu menulis yang bukan-bukan dalam tesis, contohnya, mengarang Hikayat Merong Mahawangsa pada tesis fizik adalah sesuatu yang tidak wajar dilakukan, sebab profesor fizik memang tidak berminat pada hikayat tersebut. Mereka lebih berminat dengan Hikayat Sang Kancil dengan Buaya.

Aye-aye's Middle Finger is Cooler

In Madagascar, there exists a species of lemur called the aye-aye. This nocturnal primate has a pair of evil-looking eyes and enormous ears, and a set of rodent-like teeth. The strangest feature of an aye-aye though, is its thin and superficially long middle finger, which it uses to tap on tree trunks in search of beetle larvae. 
The digit is less than half the width of other digits, and hence is vulnerable to injury and poorly suited for bearing load.

Given it's role in foraging, it's natural to assume that the digit is densely packed with nerves and blood vessels, and hence it is warm as any other parts of the aye-aye's body. But Gillian Moritz and Nathaniel Dominy from the Dartmouth College in the United States recently discovered that the middle finger of the aye-aye was cooler than other digits during periods of inactivity, only to warm up during foraging and hunting.
