"They spend weeks, months or even years waiting to track down and shoot their prey. But when wildlife photographers eventually capture their target, the results - as these picture show - are worth it." - Isaac Aggrey from Bookmarklet

"In May 2008, the Department of Energy announced that it would award $10 million to the first company that developed a solid-state lamp that could replace a standard bulb. Among the criteria: The lamp can use no more than 10 watts to create the equivalent light of a 60-watt incandescent bulb; the color of the light output must mimic that of today’s incandescents; and the bulbs must last at least 25,000 hours, as much as 25 times as long as today’s standard bulbs." - Isaac Aggrey from Bookmarklet

"Norman Borlaug arguably the greatest American of the 20th century died late Saturday after 95 richly accomplished years. The very personification of human goodness, Borlaug saved more lives than anyone who has ever lived. He was America's Albert Schweitzer: a brilliant man who forsook privilege and riches in order to help the dispossessed of distant lands. That this great man and benefactor to humanity died little-known in his own country speaks volumes about the superficiality of modern American culture." - Isaac Aggrey from Bookmarklet

"Robots-Dreams has an excellent post about AT&T advertisements from 1993 (16 years ago!) in which predictions about the future turned out to be amazingly accurate. Technology is changing our lives at an ever faster rate, and it is easy for us to forget that many things that we take for granted today were not around just a few short years ago." - Isaac Aggrey from Bookmarklet

"This year's freshmen were typically born in 1991. That means, the authors explain, they have never used a card catalog to find a book; salsa has always outsold ketchup; women have always outnumbered men in college. There has always been blue Jell-O.In 1991 we were fighting a war in Iraq, and still are; health care needed reforming, and still does. But before despairing that some things never change, consider how much has. In 1991 the world watched a black motorist named Rodney King be beaten by L.A. cops, all of whom were acquitted; a majority of whites still disapproved of interracial marriage. Ask yourself, Would the people we were then have voted for a mixed-race President and a black First Lady?" - Isaac Aggrey from Bookmarklet

Blue Jell-O?1? - Spidra Webster

"You are confronted with your own vitality and mortality at the same time when you are actually looking at your own heart. From the rhythmic beating, fast now, to the arteries running to and from the heart, I am humbled at the power of medical technology. Snapping me back to reality Dr. Tawa, says “Look here, Mr. Kendrick, we have a problem.”" - Isaac Aggrey from Bookmarklet

"“We anticipate that the new batteries may open up entirely new possibilities when it comes to battery applications,” said Professor Strömme in an email. “Because of the potential cost efficiency and light weight, the batteries can be used in smart textiles (clothes, e.g. for sensors that monitors pollutants or UV irradiation or alternatively monitors our sweat for diagnostic purposes) in packaging, in diagnostic devices in developing countries, etc.. Another benefit is that the batteries can be manufactured without advanced equipment making it possible to build the batteries on site in developing countries.”" - Isaac Aggrey from Bookmarklet

"Rather than dousing a fire, the Automist quickly creates a dense fog--an airborne water concentration of 30%, which is enough to contain a fire and control its heat. Tests have shown that in a few minutes, the misting system can lower the temperature in a burning room from a fatal 480 degrees, to 122 degrees. And all without the torrents of water that mark other sprinkler systems, and which often end up doing more damage to a residence than the fire itself." - Isaac Aggrey from Bookmarklet
