| Harvard Lab Wants To Find The Missing Link Between Birds And Dinosaurs Posted: 21 Aug 2011 11:43 AM PDT The lab in particular is Arhat Abzhanov’s. The scientist is on quite a mission. Without having to plod through excess jargon, he wants to find out which genes among bird embryos are dormant. When he does, he intends to apply the method to curing a birth defect known as HFM or Hemifacial microsomia. As the name suggests, it's a facial anomaly that affect one out of every 4,500 births.

| No More A Cookbox Concept Puts Microwave In A Drawer Posted: 21 Aug 2011 11:37 AM PDT Long story short, since miniaturization finally catches up with home living in a matter of years, seen below is a microwave functioning as a drawer.

| California Police Experimenting With Computer Program That Predicts Crime Posted: 21 Aug 2011 07:26 AM PDT To be more specific, what’s predicted is the likeliness of crime in a specific area. The police department field testing the program are from Santa Cruz. The exact name of the software the program runs is unknown, but what it does is compute and predicts crime by analyzing past trends from a sizable database of police records.

| Unorthodox Gamera Helicopter Actually Flies (Video) Posted: 21 Aug 2011 07:10 AM PDT Ladies and gentlemen, an American biology student now holds the record for the world’s longest human powered flight by a female. She’s Judy Wexler and in the picture below she’s on Gamera, a carbon fiber four rotor aircraft that’s on track to bag the Sikorsky prize. It’s a holy grail of sorts among helicopter enthusiasts, its criteria being an unattainable goal of 60 seconds of human powered flight.
