The FBI thought that burning the methamphetamine they had requisition was a good idea. They sent fourteen people to the hospital

by

If you have ever wondered what the police do with the drugs they requisition, surely the Montana Police method, in the United States, does not leave you indifferent. The last stash they have destroyed has made fourteen people have to be treated emergency and has forced to transfer more than 75 animals. What happened. They tell it in Associated Press. The event occurred in an animal shelter in Billings, Montana. The installation has an incinerator for animal corpses, which the authorities occasionally use to destroy illegal substances. In this case it was almost 1kg of methamphetamine. The problem was that, at the beginning of combustion, instead of leaving the extractor, the smoke began to fill the building. They should have had a fan by hand to avoid it, but nobody found it. It is also believed that they did not use the right temperature since, if he had done it, the toxins would have burned and would not have had major consequences. Consequences. Fourteen workers from Yellowstone Valley Animal Shelter had to be treated at the hospital after inhaling smoke. The director of the refuge assured Associated Press that employees did not know that the incinerator was used for such purposes and did not give importance to smoke. Among the symptoms they presented had headaches, throat pain, cough and dizziness. They were not the only ones affected, the animals that were in the shelter also inhaled the smoke. At least 75 dogs and cats had to be transferred to reception houses. Fortunately there was no regret victims. Other cases. It is not the first time that drug burning has consequences of this type. In April of this year, Lice Police, in Türkiye, burned 20 tons of marijuanacausing dizziness, nausea and even hallucinations in some of the inhabitants. In 2015 Something very similar happened in Palmerah, Indonesia. How is it done in Spain. It is also incinerated, but more controlled through concessions with waste elimination companies. According to the independent, In 2022 Spain spent 300,000 euros a year on the destruction of shells on two floors that were in Asturias and Toledo. The Grande-Marlaska Minister did not see viable the construction of a specific incinerator for this because it would mean an even greater cost.

That’s why the Batching Batching is so good idea

by

If we really want to start eating better, psychologists have Something that can help us. Something that, in addition, can be summarized in one sentence: that “our food must be governed by a plan and not by our mood.” The problem, of course, is that plans sometimes extend checks that our day to day cannot pay. And it is not ours, like He explained to us The professor of the University of Zaragoza, Juan Ramón Barrada, “if you live surpassed by life, leave for tomorrow It is not procrastinating, “is surviving. Therefore, the batching cooking is so good idea. Batching Batching? Are we already with neologies and “modernuras”? Yes and no. Although it is true that it has now become fashionable with that name, the truth is that this strategy is a classic of foods around the world: cooking in a short time all the food of the week, optimizing resources and food preparations. That is, it is about organizing the menu in such a way that each preparation and each food serves to make several dishes. That ensures diversity and reduces preparation time. What advantages do you have? Many, really. How our DAP companions explainit is a strategy that brings us closer to homemade food, friends with the kitchen and allows us to get away from ultraprocessed, Fast food and elaborate food away from home; It allows us to reduce the times we dedicate to the kitchen and organize our food; And finally, it helps us save. But, above all, it can help us control what we eat. Because it is a powerful tool when “facilitating” the fulfillment of those plans we talked about before. After all, one of the main problems we have to carry them out is that, at the time of truth, we do not feel like it. Overwhelmed by day -to -day pressures, our body asks us ‘Conford Food’; Another neologism that comes to say “Leave yourself of zarandajas and give me something that is rich (with all saturated fats, sugars and carbohydrates that is possible)”. And the truth is that this feeling is not going to disappear, but if we have prepared the food – as the batch cooking advises us – to overcome temptation becomes easier. Not only easier, also safer. As Giuseppe Russolillo explainedpresident of the Spanish Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, “the population is not fully aware that the methods that use weight losing are extremes and can put their health at risk and that the recovery of the lost weight is frequent.” This also affects many attempts to eat better. And it is not necessary to be so aggressive. A balanced meal is a day won. Because “for what we can extract from current investigations, there are three tips that can be given to anyone: eat healthy, exercise and accept your body,” Barrada told us. Hence, obsess with weight is a mistake (quite serious, besides) and the best strategy is to introduce small habits in our day to day.

One day, someone thought that a mini with Rolls-Royce interior was a good idea. And what surprised the most were … his carpet

by

The BMW group is particular. For just over 25 years, Bavaria’s firm has been taking other companies under his arms. In 1998, Rolls-Royce became part of it and only three years later, in 2001, Mini did the same. In the mid -50s, the world closely followed the Egyptian nationalization of the Suez Canal. The decision derived, among other things, in a generalized rise in fuels that very hard to the automobile industry. Iconic models were born from that crisis. He Fiat 500 It was one of them. The British answer would arrive with the mini. Both cases shared many similarities: small cars that prioritized the interior space, very practical to move around and with very tight engines to position themselves as affordable and easy to maintain vehicles. Saving the technical conditions of those years, in Mini they managed to carry The engine in front and place it transverselya whole milestone that differentiated him from Fiat 500 himself but also from beetle, the other great supervants of the moment. In both cases, the engine was located in the rear. Almost instantaneously, the mini gained popularity for its extreme lightness and agility. So much so that in 1964 he managed more bizarrest preparations and foster the sports spirit of those light cars that are no longer left. Perhaps that is why it is not so surprised that with Rolls-Royce and Mini under the same umbrella, both companies joined to create a most special piece. Fit a rolls-royce in a four-meter car With the purchase of Mini by BMW, the brand was reborn but did it with very different hallmarks. He collected the retro aesthetics from his ancestors but he was reconverted to offer an urban coolan attractive car in the visual, of premium price but with a very distinctive driving dynamic. The success was immediate with the Company redefinition. The popularity of the first new Mini Cooper was immediate and attracted all eyes. The Cooper S or John Cooper Works versions would arrive. But far from the expected sports options, in 2011 Mini surprised with a most unexpected collaboration. With the Mini Inspired by GoodwoodRolls-Royce tried to fit all the company’s luxury in a car that at that time did not reach four meters .. a kind of miniaturization of the maximum luxury and the most select of the automobile industry that was framed within the Deportivo Mini Cooper S. The car reached the Spanish market with a price at the height of its interiors: 49,500 euros … in 2012. That is, today it would cost almost 65,000 euros if we apply the inflation corresponding to that period. Of course, one of the fortunate thousand who made one of these limited series sold the car last year for 31,000 pounds (35,740 euros) that, adding the corresponding taxes, cost more or less the same as the same as the same as the same as more than a decade. Inside, this particular mini had the classic leather upholstery in ‘Cornsilk Beige’ color typical of British luxury berlins and insertions in walnut wood. The roof was topped in Kashmir The sound system was signed by Harman/Kardon and added less common details in those years in small vehicles such as parking sensors or bi-xenon headlights. Even the browser and automatic change had to be asked as extras, increasing the price of the car by more than 3,000 euros. As a personal anecdote, a few days ago I shared a quick talk with Sergio Ríos (Autobild) and Héctor Ares (usual among our companions of Motorpasion). Both They have been able to drive at some time a rolls-royce And both made reference to a differential detail: the carpets. And is that in the test of Autobild For more than 10 years, its author also stood out from the mini inspired by Goodwood this aspect. In fact, In the article you could read the following: What caught my attention the most when I opened the door for the first time were … the carpets. Yes, you are going to laugh, it is not the element in which I usually look at a car, but those carried by this mini inspired by Goodwood are to take a picture and teach them: they are made of lamb skin, and they are so soft that you want to take off your shoes and drive barefoot. In addition, they are very warm; Of course, they have panic, dust and, of course, the mud Yeah, There were reasons to buy a mini inspired by Goodwood and pay for a four -meter -long car and 184 hp gasoline engine almost the same as for a Porsche Boxster In those years. The first, you had enough money. The second, that you will fall in love with some carpets that were like staying to live in them.

The new and radical idea to unravel the mobile

by

We are irremediably hooked on the mobile and has been created an entire industry that intends to “cure”. Manufacturers began to implement functions such as Time of usethere is boring mobiles to use them less and many Tricks to lower that screen time. Several apps have emerged that bet on a new method. One that uses NFC labels. The difference. The objective of these apps is to limit the daily time we spend using the mobile. They allow you to choose the apps that distract us most as Instagram and establish that we can only use them during, for example, half an hour a day. So far it works exactly like the functions that already integrate many manufacturers. The difference is that we can only unlock the apps if we bring the mobile to a physical object. A physical barrier. Time of use in iOS or digital well -being on Android are fine, but if you jump the warning that you have spent a lot of time on Instagram, you can ignore it with a simple tap. The idea of ​​these apps is that, forcing you to bring your mobile closer to an object, a more difficult physical barrier is created. If you carry the tag on top you can do it easily, but if for example you leave it at home when you leave, the thing is complicated and forces you to make a more rational use of the screen time. Apps. There are several apps that bet on the block blocking through a physical object. These are: Brick: It is the most popular app. The ‘Brick’ (in Spanish: brick) is how they have baptized their NFC label, which you can only buy on its website or from the app itself, and has a much larger design than that of a normal NFC label. It costs 61.95 euros, not precisely cheap. The app is free and is available both in iOS as in Android. UNPLUQ: It also has its own NFC label that is bought on its website or from the app. This time it is smaller and can be hung, for example, the keys. The other difference is that its price is 69.95 euros, but it is also the annual subscription. When you finish the period you will have to pay again. Can be downloaded in iOS and in Android. Scrolly: The main differences that instead of a more boring design, the label is a funny doll they have called Scrolly. You can also buy in The web or from the app and its price is 49 euros without subscription. The app is only available in iOS. LOCKED: The best option if you want to try this method without spending just. Has created a amateur developer And it is from open source. Although with a slightly less worked interface, in essence the operation of the app is the same. And the best: it is completely free. You will only have to buy an NFC label, which costs much less. For example this pack carries 50 labels and costs 8.41 euros. Friction. It has surely happened to you. You take the mobile to consult something and, without knowing very well how or why, you end up on Instagram, Tiktok or other devouring attention app. We have the employer memorized perfectly and we repeat it again and again. The idea of ​​these apps and other methods, such as empty the home screenIt is to create friction, that it is difficult for us to find the Instagram icon to stop being automatic and become something intentional, which we have thought and decided to do.

It is the best idea so that they do not end up being slow

The last Huawei event in China has had enough relevance from the point of view of technological innovation. The main course was the second generation of its triple folding smartphone, the Huawei Mate XTS Ultimate Design. However, the company also had something to say in the intelligent televisions sector, and go if he said. And it is that Huawei officially presented his new range of Matte TV TVswhich stand out precisely because they are accompanied by a high -end smartphone processor, they arrive with Harmonyosand have sizes of up to 98 inches. Under these lines we tell you everything. An unprecedented technological commitment. For the first time in the industry, a manufacturer Use a high -end chip from your flagship phones to feed a television. Huawei states that this processor offers A 490% higher performance Compared to its previous Smart Screen TVs. In addition, the Chinese company has equipped the device with the independent image chip Honghu Vivid, responsible for processing 4K content in real time and automatically optimize parameters such as contrast and luminosity. That has such a powerful processor, means that the TV is also prepared to run high caliber mobile games or make the TV move exceptionally by the menus. While manufacturers have been focusing on offering superior image quality in their panels, something that represents the most outstanding quality of a TV, we had also been asking for years asking that televisions They will ride chips at the height that will improve the performance of the TV, beyond the image processing. Huawei has done so taking advantage of his Kirin 9020 high -end that can also be seen on phones such as Mate 70 RS Ultimate. Specifications that make a difference. The Mate TV is presented in two variants: the standard model with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, and the PRO Version that raises these figures at 12GB of RAM and 256GB capacity. Another especially striking decision is the abandonment of aged EMMC storage in favor of the UFS technologywhich according to Huawei reduces the starting time of applications to just two seconds. The LCD screen uses technology Minilad With a 144Hz soda frequency and, according to the firm, the TV has a 4,200 nits peak shine delivery. It also has an ultradelgated design of 36.9mm thickness that allows an almost attached installation to the wall, with just 5mm separation. Cinema, games and content creation. Beyond being a conventional television, Huawei positions Mate TV as an integral entertainment machine. The new Lingxi Remote Control 2 command improves the accuracy of 33%, according to the company, while its two optional accessories expand the possibilities of use: lingxi Floating Touch, which works as a tactile gamepad with haptic feedback, and lingxi Stylus, which converts the screen into a family digital canvas. A sound that is not far behind. The sound section also distinguishes between the two versions. Standard Mate TV integrates six speakers into 2.2 configuration with Huawei Histen effects, while the PRO extends up to nine speakers in disposition 3.2.2 with Huawei Sound processing, adding upper channels oriented upwards with the intention of creating a more immersive enveloping effect. Harmonyos Ecosystem in the Hall. The television works under Harmonyos 5.1 and incorporates characteristics of Harmony AI to obtain personalized suggestions and recommendations, in addition to being able to interact with its voice assistant. The system recognizes faces and voices, can apply parental controls or change between user profiles intelligently. Prices and availability. Huawei has set the prices of the standard Mate TV at 8,999 yuan, about 1,075 euros to change for its 65 -inch version. The sizes scale until 98 inches with the Mate TV Pro version, at a price of 30,999 yuan (about 3,705 euros to change). Sales will begin from September 26. The bad news is that Huawei televisions still do not give signs of life in our region, so for the moment they stay in China. Images | Huawei In Xataka | For years TV spoke to us.

The Xiaomi Pad 7, the honor Pad 10 and the Lenovo Idea Tab Pro compete in the same land. Only one is reinforced for studies

by

When September arrives, for many it means the same: return to studies. It doesn’t matter the race that is being pursued, having the right tools always makes a difference when rendering to the maximum. The laptop is still a safe bet, but it is not the only one. Tablets have become an increasingly solid optionand in some cases they can even match or overcome the computer in certain tasks. In Xataka we resume our format Versus On our YouTube channelin which we face face -to -face devices to discover which one is worth more. We already did it with Sports watches of less than 200 euros and with Two of Amazon’s most popular air fryers. Now the focus is on three very competitive tablets: Xiaomi Pad 7, Honor pad 10 and Lenovo Idea Tab Pro. Our partner Ana Boria has tried these three models, which They are 350 eurosto check if this budget is sufficient to face your mission. For her, there are undeniable aspects: a large battery “to endure without problem as little, an entire day of institute or university, several storage options, and sufficient processor and RAM.” Although they start from a similar price, their differences are evident. The screen size is the first detail that attracts attention. “Of course, to use them in hand, the most comfortable and manageable is Xiaomi,” says Ana. His impressions about the other two are more critical: one feels too large and another adds more weight than expected. The perspective changes when placing them on the table. “To use them on a table, with keyboard or pencil, The truth is that the 3 are very comfortable. To write a lot or read, you appreciate having an extra inches. ”In addition, not everything is productivity, and in the entertainment section preferences may vary. “The 3 tablets have very good quality LCD screens. It has a lot of resolution, high level of detail, good colors and technologies that help reduce eye fatigue,” he explains. Even so, there are differences in resolution and refreshment rate that should be taken into account. The complete comparison is in the video. Ana also analyzed cameras, sound and performance. “Although on paper and according to Benchmarks, The Xiaomi tablet processor is betterthe truth is that the 3 behave wonderfully, ”he says. None of them gave it problems in their work sessions or in times of leisure. In an academic scenario, accessories make a difference. “For me, without a doubt, the keyboard is an almost mandatory purchase. If you are going to use the tablet to take it to class and take notes and notes, I think it is the most comfortable and quick way to work. I already tell you that when I used the Lenovo, I was missing a lot,” he says. The comparative also covers autonomy and artificial intelligence functions. After reviewing all the points, there is a clear winner. You can discover it in our last Versus: The final verdict is there, ready to help you decide. And if you feel like it, share your opinions in the comments, both here as on YouTube.

In the Tiktok era, our laptops are still horizontal. Lenovo’s idea: a rotating panel

by

There are countless vertical content that we see daily on horizontal screens. This text, without going any further. Also a Tiktok video They share us by WhatsApp, a short, an article, a book or a PDF. The programming too It is very grateful for a vertical screen. The problem is that if we use a laptop, we have no option. The screen is horizontal yes or yes, and it does not seem viable or makes a lot of sense to make a vertical laptop. Well, Lenovo has had an idea of ​​the most peculiar: a laptop with a screen that rotates. This is the Lenovo Thinkbook Vetiflex Concept in vertical mode | Image: Xataka Lenovo Thinkbook Veriflex Concept. That is the name that receives this peculiar device that the company has taught during its conference in IFA and that from Xataka we have had the opportunity to try. The device, at first glance, is a conventional laptop, but if we throw up the upper right corner we can pivot the 90 degree screen and put it vertically. The Windows interface, of course, adapts to the new format as it does on tablets. How it works. Between the rotating screen and the rear support there is a hinge. Unlike other devices, such as the roller laptop (which we have also been able to throw the glove) or the TV Samsung the serothe mechanism is manual. It does not turn automatically. To my surprise, the turn is very, very fluid and soft. Another thing is that it transmits rigidity, which does not do so. To turn the screen you have to pull this corner | Image: Xataka On the other hand, the hinge does not support several positions (for the cover photo I had to make some juggling). The screen can only be put in vertical or horizontal, not in intermediate positions. Something that, everything is said, has all the meaning of the world because why we would like to have an inclined panel 45 degrees. It shows that it is a concept. The hinge is perfectly exposed to the outside. It is not seen with the naked eye, but the mechanism can be seen if we look from above or on the lid when we pivot the screen. That is something that, if you want to launch it commercially, would have to change. It would be enough to accumulate some dust inside to cause a failure. For that same reason, folding mobiles have a kind of cap protecting the hinge. This is how the hinge area is seen from behind | Image: Xataka The thickness of the screen is similar to that of a conventional laptop | Image: Xataka Another aspect that seemed curious is that the screen cannot be pivoted with one hand. By pulling the upper right corner, we have, in turn, to hold the laptop chassis with the other hand so that it does not move. Surely here you have to make concessions in one or another address: or a resistant hinge that endures long -term or a lighter hinge that allows the operation with one hand. The idea is very cool. The Lenovo Thinkbook Vrtiflex Concept has a 14 -inch panel, weighs 1.39 kilos and I must recognize that it feels surprisingly natural. The feeling has been like the first time I opened a folding mobile (curiously, Motorola Razr It’s now … Six years, my God, how time passes). At first it is strange, but when you have done it a couple of times and you have lost the “fear of breaking”, it is natural. As much as changing any vertical to vertical tablet. Moreover, I find it more natural than folding a convertible, without going any further. Horizontal, the laptop passes through a normal and current laptop | Image: Xataka Personally, I can imagine using such a laptop. For productivity, I think the horizontal format serves me better, but if I am working on a topic and I have to read documentation, or it is good for me to have more text on the screen or, simply, the new chapter of One Piece has just left and I want to read it in conditions without changing the device, it sounds good to turn to turn the portable screen. Will you see the light one day? From Lenovo they have insisted that it is a concept and, as such, leaves several unknowns on the table. The first is its durability. From the firm they have not confirmed what expectations have in the hinge because, after all, it is a device fresh out of a laboratory. The second is if it will be launched at some point. Folded, again, it’s like any other laptop | Image: Xataka Lenovo invests 2,000 million dollars annually in R&D. Some of the products you develop never see the light. Others are prototypes or concepts that feel the bases, which are the seed, of products that are then launched. And I know well because I had in my hands the first folding portable concept quite a while before Light saw in the form of a final product. We do not know if we will see this implementation in a product at some point, but it must be said that it could make sense in certain cases of use. Be that as it may, I have no doubt that Lenovo has a job ahead, starting to hide the hinge better and remove such a delicate mechanism from dust and/or the inclement ones to which a laptop can be subjected when we carry it in the backpack.

Domotizing with sensors seemed good idea. After several days of testing, Ana has discovered what almost no one tells

by

What can go wrong when you try to domote the kitchen and bathroom … even little by little? Well, many things, as you will discover In this new installment of ‘Domotize or die in the attempt’. Ana has proposed to move forward with her connected house, but what seemed a more or less simple installation of sensors It ends up becoming a succession of failed tests, network errors, double -sided tape and various frustrations. In this episode, the goal is clear: protect the water leak house and automate bath lighting, but the process will not be precisely fluid. Nor short. Not simple. Before entering flour, the first logistic obstacle had to be overcome: shipping. One of the packages with the essential sensors had been lost, which kept the entire process in pause. “It seemed that today’s video was not going to arrive, but finally the package appeared,” says Ana, resigned but relieved. With everything already at home, the installation starts: water sensors at key points such as sink or dishwasher, and a first attempt to leave the presence detection system ready in the bathroom ready. What follows, of course, is not a manual installation. Tape, tests and patience: Home automation is taking pace The first sensors to settle were those of water leaks, and the kitchen was the test field. Ana located the three most critical points: sink, dishwasher and washing machine. He prepared to make tests in real conditions. The result was a constant strip and loosen between theory and practice. “It has taken a little more than I expected”, Says after seeing how the sensor does not react instantly to contact with water. From there, homemade adjustments begin. Place the device as centered as possible, trust that it does not move with the passage of the aspirating robot and wait for the time, the time comes, it really works. Everything pointed out that the Valve Controller would be the perfect brooch: a system that, when detecting a leak, would automatically close the passage key. It made sense, it was well thought out and seemed to fit the logic of the rest of the sensors. But when trying to install it, the thing was twisted. Ana discovers that, despite having the pipes in sight, there is not enough space to place the device. “My joy in a well,” summarizes, with a mixture of rage and resignation. The concept was ideal, the impossible execution. It will touch it back. After the reverse with the valve controller, Ana focuses on the other great objective of the episode: install a LED strip behind the bathroom mirror and accompany it with a presence sensor that activates the light automatically at night. It sounds simple, but only in theory. You have to look for the exact placemake sure that you do not activate with cats, find free plugs, and deal with an app that does not want to collaborate. “Ok, great. It’s a bit slow, but it works,” he says when, finally, he gets everything to react … although not quite as he expected. From there, it is time to test, move the sensor, adjust settings and fight with home automation. Will you get it ready? That is another story. After so much effort, Ana manages to launch her night lighting routine in the bathroom. The sensor detects the movement and lights the LED strip … although not always with the desired speed or precision. Sometimes it takes, sometimes it is activated for no reason. “It works, I would tell you that between 85 and 90 % well,” he acknowledges. It is not perfect, but functional enough to keep it installed. Will it end by polishing the failures? Is it enough when they return from the trip? In the video we see how everything has evolved. With part of the system already underway, Ana begins to think about what is coming: a trip, plants, cats … and the terrace, which stays as a pending task for the next chapter. In the next episode we will see how the house prepares for be outwith automatic irrigation system. At the moment, there is something that is still unresolved: the happy water key controller. “I thank you infinite to leave me a comment to see if I can solve it,” he says, leaving the door open to someone having the answer she has not found. And yes, if you want to see how all this ends, The full video awaits you on the Xataka YouTube channel.

A Chinese city has had an idea to simplify changes in meaning: to fly 180º in the middle of the highway

by

Changing meaning on some roads is a real nightmare. If we go for a National Highway It is relatively simple, but skip a highway exit or in large avenues of some of the larger and more congested cities on the planetit involves going huge to change the meaning of the march. And in a Chinese city they are applying a solution that facilitates the maneuver: the ‘U -urn‘, or “U turning”. The videos are not very convincing if we talk about security. U -urn. There are several designs when making changes to meaning. The idea is to make as many maneuvers as possible and that these are safe. Roundabouts are an efficient design for this, but on roads with a large number of lanesThey are little practical. You can always turn in the street and turn the block to rejoin the main road, but it takes longer. There the U-Turn that has begun to apply in cities such as Jinancapital of Shandong. The concept is simple: a lane stuck to the median that allows not to turn left, but to make an even more closed turn to join the opposite direction of march. AAAAAHORA. The video that we leave just on these lines is revealing: several cars stop in several numbered squares and wait for their turn to make that change of meaning. A continuous white line makes the difference between that lane and the rest of its march, and a yellow makes medium. How do you get the impatient drivers wait for your turn? Through a traffic light, which is the one that regulates the maneuver. The coordination between the traffic lights allows to stop the traffic of the lane to which we want to incorporate while opening the traffic light that gives green light to the incorporation maneuver, and discontinuous lines on the ground serve as a guide for drivers. Jinan’s U-Turn Risks. Now, although in This video Posted by People’s Daily and In this other Published by MAO NO, spokesman for the Chinese Foreign Ministry, the maneuvers seem idyllic, if we look at both videos and in the above we can see two of the problems, and consequent risks, of this maneuver. On the one hand: the scope that can be produced by the vehicles that already circulated in that direction. There is a traffic light that cuts trafficbut … what happens if they jump it or if they circulated at more speed? The same goes for those who want to incorporate. As the turn is so closed, there may be touches between them. In fact, there are several cars that must lessen or even correct the trajectory so as not to “eat” any of those that are incorporated. An example in the United States. In Florida, specifically Nothing exotic. Now, this U turning is not exclusive to China and, although the implementation in Jinan has caught attention, There are other areas in which it is allowed. The United States or Taiwan are two of them, but in the case of the North American country, it depends on the State and the implementation varies from a discontinuous line on the ground, the regulation through a traffic light or more extreme cases such as a road design that, in Spain, seems exotic: Therefore, although very colorful, that Jinan lane is another implementation of this 180 degree turn to change meaning. In countries outside Europe, where apples are usually smaller and narrower roads, it is normal to see this type of implementations, but in the case of the solution applied in Jinan, the striking is the amount of cars simultaneously that can make the change of meaning. And the problem is that, although functional because it allows a road with a large number of lanes Several cars can make a 180 degree turn simultaneously, in the published videos you can perfectly see that the possibility of a range is there.

The last extreme idea in beer fermentation has nothing to do with alcohol. It has to do with murderous bees

by

The human being has been fermenting beer since time. In spite of this there is always a place for innovation and, probably the “recipe” created by microbiologists from the University of Cardiff, in Wales, is not precedent in the history of mankind. Bee-r. A team of researchers He has created beer using a type of yeast found in the so -called “Killer Bees of Namibia.” The yeast in question (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) It was extracted from specimens of this bee that had died due to natural causes, and then used for the fermentation process from which beer is created. The origin of the idea was on the visit of the British team to the University of Namibia. During the trip, they explain from the Unviersidad de Cardiff, the team was interested in these bees. “When we arrive back to Cardiff, we use the isolated yeast from the murderous bees, next to yeast extracted from Welsh bees, to create several beer remittances,” Les Baillie points outProfessor of Microbiology at the Welsh Center. The “murderous bees”. The so -called “murderous bees” are also known by the least threatening name of Africanized holiferous bees. It is a hybrid subspecies of the common bee (Apis Mellifera), which results from the hybridization of other subspecies of this common insect. The Denomination of Killer is due to aggressiveness Of these bees with whom they consider a threat: these bees attack in large numbers which increases the risk of encounters that are fatal. What do you know? The yeast S. Cerevisiae is (as its name suggests) a yeast commonly used In the manufacture of beer so, regardless of the singular of its origin, beer would not be special. However, we will not have to contrast that fact by our own means. This beer, They explain its creatorsseeks to combine the knowledge of the equipment in microbiology to bring it to products related to bees “to produce something unique.” Now, it’s time to climb the process, looking for some winery willing to take this “recipe” to the market. This could also serve to economically promote this type of research. “Our killer beer is a complementary project for our Pharmabees study. Our study is showing how honey, wax and other bees products can play a role in solving some of the greatest world challenges, including resistance to antibiotics and superbacteria” Baillie added. Pharmabees. Within the Pharmabees project, various actions focused on exploring, for example, how the pollination of certain plants can help us in the fight against superbacteria are registered. To do this, the team installed various hives in the university environment, accompanied by specific plants that, in principle, could lead to bees to create new types of honey and other products. The idea highlights the importance of these insects, not only because of their role in ecosystems but also because of their potential capacity to help synthesize certain compounds. Compounds that, who knows, could one day use for the most surprising purposes.
