ಭಾನುವಾರ ರಾತ್ರಿ ರಾಂಟ್: ರೀತಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ವಿಷಯಗಳನ್ನು ಕೆಲಸ ಮಾಡಬೇಕು.

I came across this article today and it put a smile on my face. ಒಂದು ಪ್ರಯಾಣ ಮಲೇರಿಯಾ ಸಂಶೋಧಕ ಅಡ್ಡಲಾಗಿ ಬಂತು “ಎಲೆಕ್ಟ್ರಾನಿಕ್ ಸೊಳ್ಳೆ ಹಿಮ್ಮೆಟ್ಟಿಸುವವನು” ತನ್ನ ವಿಮಾನದೊಳಗಿನ ಕ್ಯಾಟಲಾಗ್ ಮಾರಾಟ. ಒಂದು ಬುದ್ಧಿವಂತ ವ್ಯಕ್ತಿಯಾದ, ಅವರು ಈ ಒಟ್ಟು ಮತ್ತು ಸಂಪೂರ್ಣ ಬಿಎಸ್ ಅರಿತುಕೊಂಡ. He also realized this product probably sells best while in-route to malaria ridden . . . → ಓದಿ: ಭಾನುವಾರ ರಾತ್ರಿ ರಾಂಟ್: ರೀತಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ವಿಷಯಗಳನ್ನು ಕೆಲಸ ಮಾಡಬೇಕು.

ಹೊಸ ಪುಟ!

Look above, I’ve created a new page for techniques. Ever wonder how something is done? Ask me how and I will illustrate.

ವಾರದ ಸ್ಟುಪಿಡ್ buttefly

ಈ ಚಿಟ್ಟೆ ನೋ? ಇಟ್ಸ್ ಒಕೆ, ಯಾರೂ ನಿಜವಾಗಿಯೂ. ಇದು ಕುಲದ Apodemia ಆಗಿದೆ (Riodinidae), ಆದರೆ ಈ ಗುಂಪಿನ ಟ್ಯಾಕ್ಸಾನಮಿ ವಿಪತ್ತಿನ… ಮತ್ತು ನನಗೆ ಉಪಜಾತಿಗಳು ಪ್ರಾರಂಭಿಸಲು ಇಲ್ಲ. ಈ ಮಾದರಿಯನ್ನು ಸೆಪ್ಟೆಂಬರ್ ಛಾಯಾಗ್ರಾಹಕರಿಗೆ, ಇದು ಅರ್ಥ Apodemia mormo ಎಂದು ಸಾಧ್ಯತೆಗಳಿವೆ ಆಗಿದೆ (Mormo) ಆಧಾರಿತ . . . → ಓದಿ: ವಾರದ ಸ್ಟುಪಿಡ್ buttefly

In the field

One of the perks of being an entomologist is traveling and collecting. I put a few thousand miles on the car every summer and these are two of the best places in Arizona to collect. The top image is from the Baboquivari Mountains (Baboquivari Peak in the middle), Brown Canyon Research Station. . . . → ಓದಿ: In the field

Time-lapse butterflies

Despite being pretty disinterested in butterflies, they are pretty to look at. Here is a really great video by a guy I know down in Southern CA. His time-lapse videos of lepidoptera life cycles are pretty impressive, and this one in particular is beautiful. If you cut to about 3:00 ಒಳಗೆ, you will see dozens . . . → ಓದಿ: Time-lapse butterflies

Sad but true

The brief comment about Linus Pauling and Vitamin C below made me remember this video first posted a while ago by Pharyngula. This is Kary Mullis, the inventor of PCR, and a Nobel Prize winner. His invention basically made DNA analysis possible. But like Pauling, he is also completely and totally nuts. If you have . . . → ಓದಿ: Sad but true

OK butterfly people, who am I?

This is an old image of mine, so it’s not perfect. If you can tell me this butterfly to species you get a high-five. If you know the subspecies, I’ll send you a new pack of #3 stainless steel pins! Only hint: It’s from the western USA.

NY Times FAILAcupuncture

Today I found this article in NY times healthtouting the benefits of acupuncture used for depression relief in pregnant women. I have a few problems with the journalist, Shirley S. Wang, failing to remain skeptical in her piece. But this comes as no surprise, so I won’t bother to point out obvious flaws . . . → ಓದಿ: NY Times FAILAcupuncture

Ming’s Myth

I love Ming Tsai and his cooking empire as much as the next 3-am TV viewer. ವಾಸ್ತವವಾಗಿ, his recipes are fantastic and you should make them yourself. But I have noticed an odd tendency for him to say (paraphrased) “you should always use organic, it’s much better for you”. This leaves me a bit puzzled. . . . → ಓದಿ: Ming’s Myth
