Silent summer: No wolf pup yips heard on Isle Royale
On the largest island in Lake Superior, scientists gather year after year to study the dynamics between wolves and moose. For forty years, the scientists have come to take part in this iconic predator-prey study, and for forty years the sound of high-pitched yips have greeted their ears, heralding a new generation of wolf pups. That is, until last summer. It was a summer without yips. Aerial surveys supported the implications of that silent summer—the wolves of Isle Royale did not produce pups. Physical abnormalities had already been witnessed in the wolves. The situation has left conservation biologists to ponder whether or not they should intervene. A genetic rescue would not only be for the sake of the study of these wolves but for the island as well. The study has become the world’s longest running on predator-prey dynamics and is one of science’s most famous data sets.

11 Colorful Phrases From Ancient Roman Graffiti
When the cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum were suddenly consumed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 C.E., many of their buildings were so intimately preserved that modern archaeologists can even read the graffiti scribbled onto their ancient walls. See if any of these remind you of a twenty-first century bathroom. 1. “Philiros spado.” "Phileros is a eunuch." 2. “ Lucius Pinxit .” " Lucius wrote this." 3. “Apollinaris, doctor to the emperor Titus, had a good crap here.” 4. “Oppius, you’re a clown, a thief, and a cheap crook.” 5. “We have wet the bed. 6. “Virgula to Teritus: You are a nasty boy.” 7. "Epaphra, you are bald." 8. “If only similar swindling would dupe you, innkeeper: you sell water, and drink the undiluted wine yourself.” 9. “The petty thieves request the election of Vatia as adele.” 10. “Celadus makes the girls moan.” 11. “I wonder, O wall, that you have not yet collapsed, so many writers’ clichés do you bear.”
How Electroplating Works -- student science project
For the first demonstration, the cathode will be copper (pennies), the anode will be zinc, and the "electrolyte" (the solution) will be zinc dissolved in vinegar and water. Zinc anodes are available from boating stores With a hacksaw a teacher or the group can cut many slices from one anode. A second option to obtain zinc is to sand down a modern U.S. penny (1983 or later) until the copper surface is removed and the underlying zinc core is exposed. Note: A third possible source of zinc is the shell of conventional carbon-zinc batteries (make sure not to use alkaline batteries like Duracell or Eveready Energizers, nor rechargeable nickel-cadmium batteries -- just the cheapest 1-1/2 volt AA, C, or D plain carbon-zinc batteries). For the pennies that you wish to plate onto, although any pennies will do, if you start with a dull brown penny, you'll end up with a dull zinc plated penny. A recipe for the solution, suggested by Tom Pullizzi, and found to work is: 1). 2). 5).
Ueno Park, Sakura
Picture perfect for this picnic. Wish I could have sat down and joined in. Beautiful Sakura. So many people enjoying themselves, whether they were sitting down and drinking or just walking on by. Japanese life under the Sakura wave The empty bottles are lined up, the drawings left behind. Cameras out in force to document the great scene for many. Lots of happy hanami revelers. Plenty of blue tarpaulin laid out for the lucky ones who have reserved their spot. Rilakkuma slippers waiting for their owners to claim the space. Somebody get that dog a beer ! So many different groups of people coming together to watch the sakura. The sakura trees seem to come together to form a sea of cherry blossoms. The crowds always come to Ueno Park to see the sakura at this time of year. Local Shrine with some nice red color. As at any good matsuri, there is always plenty to eat. A mixture of many things. Tasty corn ready to go. These looked really tasty. Lots of heads bobbing along the road. Pretty in pink.
What is Chrome Plating
Unlike "sacrificial" coatings like zinc plating or galvanizing where porosity or a hole or bare edge may be no big deal, porosity in nickel-chrome plating is a disaster that doesn't merely fail to protect the steel, but greatly accelerates the corrosion of the steel. Chrome plating is a "barrier layer" plating; once the barrier is breached by a pinhole, very rapid rusting is unavoidable. A low quality chrome plating job with pinholes or porosity is much much worse than no plating at all; the plating electrochemically forces the underlying steel to rust. Poor quality plating that is already showing tiny signs of rusting when you buy it is a manufacturing defect; return it, and don't let them harass you about "chemicals in your bathroom"! It is they who have chosen to distribute defective items; costly returns are the only way you can influence their policy of selling garbage. Buzzwords: "Show chrome", "Triple Chrome Plating", "Double Nickel-Chrome" Color Chrome Restoration Work
