3Found two interesting scientific news items on net today; one showing the use of inner-wear in finding directions and the other about a breakthrough in naturally increasing the cup size while reducing stomach fat as compared to older technology of artificial implants.
Lacy underwear secret tool of polar expedition
"Due to our proximity to the Magnetic North Pole, our compasses are currently going haywire. The earth's strong magnetic field on this part of the ocean means that the compass needle simply spins uselessly in its housing. As such, we're currently relying on more traditional methods for day-to-day navigation, using the sun (for those few precious hours each day when it graces us with its presence), and using wind direction, as indicated by the panties…"
The Telegraph
Larger cup size possible!!!
A STEM cell therapy offering “natural” enlargement is to be made available to British women for the first time.
The treatment could boost cup size while reducing stomach fat. It involves extracting stem cells from spare fat on the stomach or thighs and growing them in upper parts. An increase of one cup size is likely, with the potential for larger gains as the technique improves.

This is revenge:
When Leigh went away a few weeks ago, Dave got into his house and swapped everything upstairs with everything downstairs. He was there waiting for him when he got back.
So Dave's buddies decided to get their revenge. When Dave went away to Thailand for a few days last week, they built a brick wall over his front door as a nice surprise. They were there waiting for him when he got back.
The video shows they did a very professional job in constructing that wall!!!

Cows with Gas: India's Global Warming Problem
By burping, belching, and excreting copious amounts of methane—a greenhouse gas that traps 20 times more heat than carbon dioxide—India's livestock of roughly 485 million (including sheep and goats) contribute more to global warming than the vehicles they obstruct. With new research suggesting that emission of methane by Indian livestock is higher than previously estimated, scientists are furiously working on designing diets to help bovines and other ruminants eat better, stay more energetic, and secrete lesser amounts of the offensive gas.

The Power of Prayer - Medical science reveals you may be able to nurture your health with faith.
Want to live seven years longer? Start praying. We're not joking here; seven years is the increase in lifespan you can expect if you nurture your soul and your health through prayer, faith, and religious involvement, according to various studies. For one thing, research shows a strong connection between heart health and religious faith. In one study, people who went into open-heart surgery and reported feeling strength and comfort from their religion were three times more likely to survive the surgery than people with no such spiritual grounding.
If there's a placebo effect at work here—if people get better because they believe they will—who's to argue with the benefits? Whether praying calms you, gives you hope, or helps you tend to your inner self, if you feel you're getting something out of it, it's time well spent.

Rodriguez, a one-year employee with a waterfall of brown curls, answered the phone around 4 p.m. A co-worker was on the other line. She informed the naive teenager he would need to fork over some cash for the boss's wife, Martha Seas, according to a North Miami Beach Police report. The Mrs. would call in a few minutes, the coworker explained.
The phone rang again. A voice introduced herself as Seas and "asked him how much money there was in the vault," the police report states. Then she politely instructed the boy to take out $26,000 and hand it to a broker, who would be in shortly. No need to worry, she told him; the gentleman would recite a secret number code: 1203.
So, stack by stack, he filled a black bag with crisp $100 bills. Within half an hour, a short man wearing a fedora and a gray pinstripe suit strolled into the store, shaking his umbrella. He spouted off the code, and Rodriguez handed over the loot. But once the dapper fellow was out the door, Rodriguez got a bad feeling.

Many people working in offices where one PC is shared among many are not aware of some of the dangers. Basically, it is very easy to download and install keylogging software on a PC. It goes on recording each and every keystroke that a user is making. Thus, every password/username/PIN/bank account number/what you wrote in an intimate email - all are made available to the person who has installed the software.
