Oleh Chris Grinter, on February 28th, 2010% I came across this article today and it put a smile on my face. A traveling malaria researcher came across an “electronic mosquito repeller” for sale in his in-flight catalog. Being an intelligent man, he realized this was total and utter BS. He also realized this product probably sells best while in-route to malaria ridden . . . → Baca Lebih: Kata-kata kasar malam Ahad: cara yang sepatutnya berfungsi.

Know this butterfly? It’s OK, no one really does. It is in the genus Apodemia (Riodinidae), but the taxonomy of this group is a disaster… and don’t even get me started on the subspecies.

Berikut ialah video yang sangat hebat oleh seorang lelaki yang saya kenali di Southern CA. Video selang masa beliau tentang kitaran hayat lepidoptera cukup mengagumkan, dan yang ini khususnya cantik.

Saya mempunyai masalah dengan beberapa wartawan yang, Shirley S. Wang, gagal untuk tetap ragu-ragu dalam sekeping beliau.

Oleh Chris Grinter, on February 21st, 2010% I love Ming Tsai and his cooking empire as much as the next 3-am TV viewer. Sebenarnya, his recipes are fantastic and you should make them yourself.
