This is a shot of three eagles fighting over a fish in Homer, Alaska, from March 2008. You can see the fish at the top of the image flying by itself, but it was caught in its fall by another eagle. Particularly amazing work by Jose Hernadez, this photo won the 2008 International Photography Contest of National Geographic Magazine.

Interesting article about Honda @ Forbes... At American auto companies, finance guys and marketers rise to the top. Not at Honda... Of all the bizarre subsidiaries that big companies can find themselves with, Harmony Agricultural Products, founded and owned by Honda Motor, is one of the strangest. This small company near Marysville, Ohio produces soybeans for tofu. Soybeans? Honda couldn't brook the sight of the shipping containers that brought parts from Japan to its nearby ...

Longtime auto analyst John Casesa, who now runs a consulting company, says, "There's not a company on earth that better understands the culture of engineering."What a good quote. Reading this really makes Honda seem like a mecca for great thinking.

I spent a great amount of time in the past month creating, editing, and publishing the following video about the causes of the current credit crisis. My focus was nearly 100% on subprime mortgage lending.I have always been sure that better explanations and better presentations existed, but I was quite comfortable with my finished project. It wasn't until today that I realized where I goofed. I was too serious. Sometimes, when things get really bad, ...

유로존 국가(유로화 사용 15개국)들이 단일 통화 사용 이후 사상 처음으로 경기 침체에 빠져든 것으로 나타났다.14일(현지시간) 블룸버그뉴스는 유럽연합 통계기관인 유로스타트(Eurostat)가 잠정 집계한 유로존 3분기 국내총생산(GDP) 성장률이 전분기 대비 0.2% 감소했다고 밝혔다. 유로존은 지난 2분기에도 -0.2% 성장률을 기록하면서 2분기 연속 마이너스 성장을 보였다. 지난 1999년 유로 단일 통화가 출범한 이후 사상 처음으로 '기술적 침체(2분기 연속 성장 감소)'에 빠진 셈이다. 하지만 지난해 3분기와 비교했을 때는 올 3분기에 0.7% 증가했다고 블룸버그는 전했다. 닉 커니스 포티스 이코노미스트는 "상황이 갈수록 악화될 ...

感谢匿名人士的投递 在ChinaUnix的论坛上有网友synne发现了一个比较有意思的状况,由于工作需要他从海关总署下载172号令文件,结果从网站上下载的文档属性显示它是用是盗版番茄花园系统生成的.按说海关总署这样的中央级别机构已经完全实施正版化,全面部署了正版的微软软件,但为何他们卸掉正版装上盗版来用,是一个值得思索的话题.

Bayesian coalescent inference of major human mitochondrial DNA haplogroup expansions in Africa. Atkinson QD, Gray RD, Drummond AJ. Past population size can be estimated from modern genetic diversity using coalescent theory. Estimates of ancestral human population dynamics in sub-Saharan Africa can tell us about the timing and nature of our first steps towards colonizing the globe. Here, we combine Bayesian coalescent inference with a dataset of 224 complete human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences to estimate ...
