Things I have recently spotted that may
be of interest to someone else:
Computing: National Public Radio reports on robots
made of paper, which folds into a functioning robot. (There's
a brief video of this process.)
NPR also reports on the case of a
monkey who took a photo of herself. Who owns the copyright?
Humor: (or something) National Public Radio reports on how to market snacks derived from insects.
Science: Wired
reports on whether dogs
can tell time, perhaps by smell.
Wired also reports on the microbes
found in cheeses. There have been some surprises.
And Wired tells us that the white
sands of Hawaiian beaches are mostly fish poop.
National Public Radio reports on the
importance of mosses. Who knew?
Sports: Congratulations to Becky
Hammon, who has been hired as the first
full-time female assistant coach by the San Antonio Spurs, the NBA
champions. She is the first full-time female coach ever hired by a major sports team in North America. See also yesterday's full-page article in USA Today.
