Ishbadiddle: Science!

Science!

It's been a while since our last Weird Science post, and I've got a bunch of links for ya:

Everything Glows:

Taiwan breeds green-glowing pigs
Potatoes that glow when they need water
Mice with glowing hearts. Do they phone home?

Robots Take Over:

Sexed Robots
Self-replicating robots. OK, who created the self-replicating robots and caused the Singularity? C'mon, guys in white coats, I urge you to read science fiction before it's too late.

Biology Notes From All Over:

Bees' decision making skills better than most committees. Of course, there are fungi that have better decision making skills better than most committees.
Oysters ideal for carrying disease.
Mood-altering cat parasites make women friendly and men into jerks. I'm a cat person, yet I'm friendly. What gives?
New search for living dinosaurs. Didn't anyone see Jurassic Park? This can only end with a T. Rex stomping around Manhattan.
When bacteria lie to other bacteria. They also fail to call and send flowers.
Viruses trained to build tiny batteries. Go on, think of a doomsday scenario. You know you want to.

ROY G. BIV?

Science Facts that People Get Wrong

And Finally, From the Engineering Disaster Department:

The Swirling Vortex of Doom!
