Precursor To Hummingbirds: Near-perfect Fossil Specimen Reveals New Species

Superbly fossilized remains of a new species of bird thought to be a precursor to modern hummingbirds and swifts have been discovered by researchers examining a fossil collection from Wyoming.
The nearly complete, palm-sized skeleton of the bird is being lauded for its exceptionally well-preserved feathers, which enable the researchers to reconstruct the size and shape of the bird’s wings in ways not possible with bones alone.
The bird, named Eocypselus rowei, lived roughly 50 million years ago.

Aw, it’s got a little mohawk.

You know how back in the day famous artists had patrons? Rich dudes who paid their living expenses and let them get on with the business of creating art, with the only stipulation being that the artist had to create specific things for them whenever they wanted. Like maybe a fresco over the toilet of the rich dude and all his friends wearing togas.

I want to be the patron of a scientist. I want to build him a nice house and a lab and pay for all his equipment and assistants, and he could use it however he wanted in his free time. Maybe try and find a cure for cancer or something. But first I’d want him to genetically engineer me a dragon. Chop-chop.

(The Verge.com) Cyborg America: inside the strange new world of basement body hackers

tweedymcgee:

teratocybernetics:

With the advent of the smartphone, many Americans have grown used to the idea of having a computer on their person at all times. Wearable technologies like Google’s Project Glass are narrowing the boundary between us and our devices even further by attaching a computer to a person’s face and integrating the software directly into a user’s field of vision. The paradigm shift is reflected in the names of our dominant operating systems. Gone are Microsoft’s Windows into the digital world, replaced by a union of man and machine: the iPhone or Android.

For a small, growing community of technologists, none of this goes far enough.


If I weren’t such a chickenshit, I’d be all over having sensory magnets in my fingertips.

3. Y’all need to read this.

Alkali metals are soft metals that can be cut with a knife. The air makes the metal corrode- so sometimes they are kept under oil to stop them from corroding. Their chemical reactions with water can be violent. 

SCIENCE.

fkasjdfaksdhfl MY FAVORITE VIDEO EVER. I KNEW YOU’D COME BACK, ALKALI METALS.

“You can see things get gradually more terrifying as we go down the line”

YOU THINK?!

GOD FUCKING DAMMIT CESSIUM

Cessium….YOU HAD ONE JOB

…this is so awesome.

Looking back on it, I’m surprised our high school let us just throw chunks of sodium and potassium into water to see the reaction, because of course we threw in bigger chunks than we were supposed to. That’s how the scorch mark ended up on the ceiling.
