The old-style educational system gives you an ‘A’ and demotes you when you do something wrong. The gaming world gives you a 0 and rewards you when you do something right.

Facing a long wait for evidence, a longevity researcher takes an unusual path to market.

Scientists say that in a Swedish quarry, they’ve uncovered a meteorite unlike any other documented on the planet.

Its chemical makeup is unique among the 50,000 meteorites known on Earth, as Birger Schmitz of Sweden’s Lund University tells The Two-Way. “This does not resemble anything … even if we look at the big types that exist today and look at the broad ranges, this one falls completely outside of everything,” he says.

Now, that’s a robot!

I often never am amazed when I see people who are both geniuses and gifted not follow society’s view on how they should look, present themselves, or speak, etc. I found this article a bit funny and some comments very short sighted. A real gifted and genius knows to never prejudge things ever because they themselves are already going against society’s label.

A leading neuroscientist who has spent decades studying creativity shares her research on where genius comes from, whether it is dependent on high IQ—and why it is so often accompanied by mental illness.

Researchers at Sandia National Laboratories’ Combustion Research Facility are helping to develop sparkplug-free engines that will help meet ambitious automotive fuel economy targets of 54.5 miles per gallon by 2025.

They are working on low-temperature gasoline combustion (LTGC) operating strategies for affordable, high-efficiency engines that will meet stringent air-quality standards.

Sandia researchers Isaac Ekoto and Benjamin Wolk said the goal of the LTGC project is an engine in which chemically controlled ignition initiates the combustion of dilute charge mixtures.
