September 30th, 2007- This latest Science Scouts badge, comes from the humorous article “So You Want to Be a Marine Biologist ” over at the SCQ.
- This two-headed turtle is most unusual because it has a head at both ends, makes me think there might be a two-butted turtle waddling around somewhere out there. You can just rock me to sleep tonight.
- And for more heebie-jeebies. A brain-eating amoeba found in lakes has killed six people this year. “Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water.”
- After skipping U.N. talks on Global Warming (but successfully showing up for the free dinner afterwards), Bush outlined his own proposal on Climate Change later in the week, once again failing to mention any goals. Once again, no one was fooled. It’s like that sad, doofy uncle who keeps pulling the “Got your nose!” trick on you even though your in your late twenties.
- Time to tie one on and hit the books, moderate consumption of alcohol improves memory. Paaaaarty! (In Moderation)
- Harvard Scientists Build a Device to Smoke Weed During Brain Scans. Paaaaarty! (In Moderation (for science))
- Here’s a cool way to get those fantasy dorks into physical fitness, the Walk to Rivendale Challenge involves keeping a journal of your walks and hikes for the hundreds of miles those hobbits traveled in their adventures. Maybe something to play with next Take a Child Outside Week
- Navy Calls MySpace Kids “Alien Life Force”. The report (8MB PPT, but makes a great read) refers to Millennials as “A ‘Coddled’ Generation,” whose childhoods are “defined by ego-stroking.” Apparently these qualities make them harder to recruit for the armed forces.
- Mark your calendars for November 12th. That’s the day the One Laptop Per Child project is offering a buy one for a needy child, buy one for yourself deal. I am so there.
- Check out the $9.2-million operating room for brain surgery, called the BrainSUITE.
- Wow. This image with commentary really emphasizes the stupidity of our gilded age. Is this the legacy we want to leave future generations?
