Astronaut traces on the Moon

A spacecraft that circles the moon captured a high quality photo of the moon. In this photo shows the tracks and trashes left by the Apollo astronauts in their moon visits from 1969 - 1972.

These images were taken by NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter which is located around 13 to 15 miles from the moons surface. The images shows the paths that the astronauts left while walking on the moon as well as ruts left by the moon buggy. Some experts can even identify some backpacks that the astronauts pitched out of their lunar landers on the way back to Earth.

"What we're seeing is a trail," said Arizona State University geology professor Mark Robinson, the orbiters chief scientist. "It's totally awesome," he added. Robinson also said that the orbiter isn't close enough to see individual footprints of the astronauts.

The images were snapped in August 2011 that shows the landing sites of Apollo 12, 14 and 17. The closest image taken were that of the Apollo 17 site of 1972, the last moon mission.

Canine with the biggest ears!

Meet Harbor, the black-and-tan coonhound owned by Jennifer Wert of Boulder Colorado. He is the Guinness world record holder for the longest canine ears in the planet. His left one measures 12¼in while the right is longer at 13½in.

Coonhound breed was developed to hunt raccoons with the long ears sweeping the smell to their ears.

Harbor's ear span is greater than the height of the worlds smallest man which is Junrey Balawing who is only 23.5 inches tall. His ears is also wider than the worlds road-legal car which is 26 inches wide.

Longest Sea Bridge

The World's Longest Sea Bridge was unveiled by China not long ago. The bridge will have a total length of 26.4 miles (42.58km) and is connecting Qingdao and Huangdao which will also cut the route by 20minutes travel time.

The massive engineering breakthrough said to have cost £5.5billion to build and took the Chinese four years to complete the whole structure. The bridge is said to be opened and available this coming New Year for the Chinese people. The bridge dethroned the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway in Louisiana by almost 3miles as the longest bridge in the world.

The structure will be holding the title as the longest bridge for only a couple years because it will be dethroned by another Chinese bridge in the next years.

Most of the companies that we are working offers many option regarding retirement accounts, you can ask your Human Resource department about it. There is a trending Individual Retirement Account (IRA) right now that soon will progress to become one of the most needed retirement accounts, it is the gold IRA. This process involves jewelry in gold instead of the usual cash or money. IRA gold is beneficial due to the fact that jewelry value keeps on increasing and is never out of the investment cycle. And by the time you are ready to retire from work, you will be able to spend what you have saved, your Gold. There is also gold IRA transfer to be able to transfer accounts from one to another account using your invested gold.

Company also offers 401k for their employees. This is also one of the many retirement investments for workers. And the good news, there is also gold 401k accounts that are ready for grab for those individuals that are interested in the investment.

401k investment is beneficial due to its “no-tax” rule. This is the same with 401k gold investments and it might be more beneficial when the time comes that you need to withdraw your account for your retirement.

So decide on which investment you are going to take for your retirement so that you may not find getting older a burden to your capabilities.

Science help!

Over the years, science has been growing enormously. It has uncovered lots of things from simple beginnings of an atom to horrible ending of the earth – though it was postponed if we are to base Mayan calendar.

During my high school years, I really had a hard time covering up with my science works. I was always on the looks for science homework help whenever we have one. Those were really tiring. It was a hard time looking for help especially balancing equations, ionic compounds etc.

Although our teacher made it sound easy whenever she discuss about the subject, but still I was struggling to comprehend the discussion. Much more when it comes to mixture of substance. Urg, that was stressing. Heterogeneous mixture, homogeneous mixture to name a few to which I am very much allergic of hearing.

Just recently, I just discovered that with the help of the internet, there are lots of help online. From a simple science homework help to complex ionic compounds, homogeneous mixture, heterogeneous mixture and everything that I had a hard time dealing with during high school. Now, I am at ease knowing that these resources are available for future generations to avail.

Maybe sooner or later, only a few will come to have a hard time dealing with science and its poetry of life.

Addiction!

There are many kinds of addiction out there. So many, that even psychologist derived a FACEBOOK ADDICTION. People who do lots of things in there facebook accounts to the extent that they don't even eat at all. Now, that's weird stuff.

Two of many popular addiction that the society is facing right now are DRUG and ALCOHOL addiction. These two are always on top of the addiction popularity all over the world which makes them a great problem anywhere due to its effect to the human body and brain. People that are indulge in this kind of addiction do things that they are not even aware of which often times it is connected to a crime.

Drug rehab is one place wherein individuals who suffer addiction can have the right drug treatment. This is where they find and obtain their previous self before the addiction started. The treatment includes variety of body cleansing and exercises. Isolation is one key to treatment, for in this way, the patient gets to think about what they have done wrong and when they finally realizes, they will strive hard to put back their broken self.

The same goes for all individuals who are into the addicion of alcohol, It seems that they cannot live every single day without getting a dose of alcohol in there body and it drives them crazy. Without knowing that they are driven to the other side of normal activity, Addiction.

Alcohol treatment goes the same way as how drug addicts are being treated but they are placed in a different center which is called the alcohol treatment center or many also calls it a alcohol rehab center.

Rehabilitation is one hard process. It involves awareness, cooperation, and the determination to change what has been abused. If individuals go to these treatment centers without the will to change, they are less likely to be driven away from what they are craving the most.

As they always say: "Addiction is your one way ticket to HELL."

Everyone can be treated. With the right treatment centers covering the right treatment method, an addict can a become once again a great part of the community if given the chance to be like one without abusing it again.

Mayweather chickened out???

Recently, Mayweather recorded a videotape stating that he will take a year or two off boxing to concentrate on his boxing gym.

Could this mean that Mayweather chickened out against the pound-for-pound boxing king Manny Pacquiao? That's a possibility and he might just be making an excuse to avoid that great fight everyone has been waiting, and the proving grounds of who really is the best pound-for-pound boxer of the world.

Mayweather - Pacquiao fight has been a talked ever since Pacquiao beat Miguel Cotto in the Dallas Stadium. Since then, the talks has been so intensive and during the first result, Mayweather end up wanting Pacquiao to undergo Olympic style drug testing in which the pound-for-pound king did not accept because of the reason that the process might affect his performance during the fight. Hence, the fight did not push through, instead, Pacquiao fought Ghanian Joshua Clottey wherein Pacquiao dominated the fight and destroyed the ultimate defense of Clottey. And in the other end, Mayweather fought Shane Mosley. Mayweather won the fight via unanimous decision.

After the Pacquiao - Clottey bout, the Mayweather - Pacquiao ultimate fight floats again. The team Pacquiao agreed to give what Mayweather is requiring but now Mayweather is telling that he wants to retire for a while in boxing.

Now, big names are emerging in line to fight Manny Pacquiao which includes Antonio Margarito, Juan Manuel Marquez and the to-be-negotiated rematch of Miguel Cotto and Pacquiao. "-the weight is too heavy-" according to one of the Team Pacquiao members when asked if they would also consider Yuri Foreman in the 154lbs. division. As for Mayweather, there is nothing waiting for him if he keeps on evading the megafight everyone wants to see. "it will not happen because of mayweather" - as one boxing commentator stated during the match of Yuri Foreman and Miguel Cotto.

Lame excuses are just for losers.

Hybrid Animals

In the modern times, animals which holds territorial grounds sometimes interacts with one that is not of its kind, thus, cross breed or hybrid animals born. The offspring share traits and attitude from both parent species and is said to be more dominant than their parents.

Here are some of the hybrid animals which will surely amaze the hell out of you.

Zebroid

A zebroid is the offspring of a cross between a zebra and any other equine, usually a horse or a donkey. There are zorses, zonkeys, zonies, and a host of other combinations.

Zebroids are an interesting example of hybrids bred from species that have a radically different number of chromosomes. For instance, horses have 64 chromosomes and zebra have between 32 and 44 (depending on species). Even so, nature finds a way.

Savannah Cats

Savannah cats are the name given to the offspring of a domestic cat and a serval — a medium-sized, large-eared wild African cat. The unusual cross became popular among breeders at the end of the 20th century, and in 2001 the International Cat Association accepted it as a new registered breed.

Interestingly, savannahs are much more social than typical domestic cats, and they are often compared to dogs in their loyalty. They can be trained to walk on a leash and even taught to play fetch.

Ligers

Ligers are the cross of a male lion and a female tiger, and they are the largest of all living cats and felines. Their massive size may be a result of imprinted genes which are not fully expressed in their parents, but are left unchecked when the two different species mate. Some female ligers can grow to 10 feet in length and weigh more than 700 pounds.

Ligers are distinct from tigons, which come from a female lion and male tiger. Various other big cat hybrids have been created too, including leopons (a leopard and a lion mix), jaguleps (a jaguar and leopard mix), and even lijaguleps (a lion and jagulep mix).

Wholphins

A cross between a false killer whale and an Atlantic bottlenose dolphin, wholphins are hybrids that have been reported to exist in the wild. There are currently two in captivity, both at Sea Life Park in Hawaii.

The wholphin's size, color, and shape are intermediate between the parent species. Even their number of teeth is mixed; a bottlenose has 88 teeth, a false killer whale has 44 teeth, and a wholphin has 66.

Grolar bears

The offspring of a grizzly bear and a polar bear, a grolar bear is one beast you don't want to meet in the woods. Interestingly, unlike many hybrid animals on this list, grolar bears are known to occur naturally in the wild.

Some experts predict that polar bears may be driven to breed with grizzly bears at an increased frequency due to global warming, and the fact that polar bears are being forced from their natural habitats on the polar ice.

Beefalo

Beefalo are the fertile offspring of domestic cattle and American bison. Crosses also exist between domestic cattle and European bison (zubrons) and yaks (yakows). The name given to beefalo might be the most suggestive, since the breed was purposely created to combine the best characteristics of both animals with an eye towards beef production.

A USDA study showed that beefalo meat, like bison meat, tends to be lower in fat and cholesterol. They are also thought to produce less damage to range-land than cattle.

3.5-inch floppy disk bids goodbye!!!

The 3.5-inch floppy disk finally come to its end as internationally known company SONY announced the stoppage of its production to give way to its memory card products availability. It hasn’t been long since the memory cards appeared and it has been increasingly in demand all over the world as many digital gadgets embraces its use.

The floppy disk began to their what so called beginning-of-the-end tenure when the USB arrived in the market and when DELL computers stopped manufacturing floppy disk drives to their computers in the year 2003. We can’t deny the fact that USB stores more of our data than the bulky and wide flatted floppy disk during those times (I’m talking about the long past). Since then, floppy disk never stopped going downwards as USB and Memory sticks continue to invade the floppy empire.

As we can recall, there were also a time when the 5.25-inch disk has had its limelight not until it was replaced by smaller 3.5inch floppy disk, and now, the time finally comes for the 3.5-inch floppy to bid its goodbye to the portable storage world.

Goodbye 3.5-inch floppy disk, you been useful to us, but you have reached your toll.

Welcome Terabyte storage devices.

First Tropical Depression - Agaton!!

In the start of year 2010, the Philippines were struck by a massive drought brought about by the natural calamity called El Niño. Up until now it is still a problem in the country which causes water dams to lose water supply for the people and later then affected the energy supply and stability of major places in the country.

Finally, the year’s first tropical depression, after 3 months of waiting for rains, has entered the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) according to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA). It was reported that as of 10am of March 25, 2010, the tropical depression, which they call AGATON, was last spotted at around 1,000 kilometers east of Catarman, Northern Samar, Philippines.

According to PAGASA, Agaton is too far to affect any regions of the country and is possible that it might take a detour and will no longer hit the lands which will mean that there will still no rainfalls.

Steven Seagal to have Manny Pacquiao in a movie?

Famous actor Steven Seagal visited the home of Manny Pacquiao in Los Angeles to discuss about making a movie with the boxing superstar.

Seagal have had his glory in the early 90's with great movies like "Out for Justice(1991)" and "Under Siege(1992)" and reportedly had a movie earning of more than $900 million worldwide. That was before when his latest movies flopped the movie industries.

Seagal confessed that he was a huge fan of the boxing superstar and have always followed his fights ever since. Pacquiao also admits that back in the Philippines, he idolized Seagal for his great movies back then.

Manny Pacquiao said that he is pumped for the planned movie if it will come true and is very much excited about how the story would go. Seagal stated that they may shoot the movie in the Philippines to make it more working-friendly to the boxing superstar.

After the meeting between Seagal and Pacquiao, they both left each other with presents. Seagal gave a signed poster to Pacquiao and Manny gave Seagal a signed glove too.

We can recall last year(2009), Sylvester Stallone also visited Manny Pacquiao and also discussed about being both in a movie.
