Another bouncing Jack Snipe video. Taken remotely this one... also shows how the bird reacts to me making myself visible as I walk up to the camera. Note how it flattens its body against the water and freezes in the confident belief that it will not be seen.show more

It seems the internet loves a bouncing bird so... here is another Jack Snipe taken yesterday in Oslo. After 7 very cold weeks the forecast says we will soon have temperatures above zero and rain so it looks like this bird has done well and survived a Norwegian winter.show more

For the people who have seen it and are... interested in its origin, this is how I made that video for the Dinotracker websiteshow more

❓️ ways to overcome worries that occur from time... to time 💙 for me, back then i would do something (to overcome it), but nowadays i would do absolutely nothing and just lie down in the house. (with the mindset of) the mountain is a mountain and the water is water, that's how i freed myself (from those worries) t/n: "the mountain is a mountain and the water is water" is from buddhism, it's about how you are ought not to be confused with the truths in life and only then you'll achieve enlightenment, you need to keep your mind open and see everything just as it isshow more

blazin' bf reskin is finished just not sure how... to package it i want people to be able to use this in base game but i also want them to be able to use it in remix mods like the one shown in this videoshow more

i'm not lying when i tell you that i... think stan hansen's body language in this clip is one of the funniest things i have ever seen in the history of wrestling. every time i see it i crack up no matter how many times i've seen it previously.show more

See the clumsy attempt to cover up the Sora... icon. Soon must funny videos will be assumed fake. Tech companies need to find a solution to this. How hard would it be to have apps that only upload real unaltered videos taken with the camera on one’s phone?show more

sh was just asking abt the temp of water... and saw how jake's wet clothes clung to the body and can be seen during this photoshoot 🐩 doesn't the water make (the body) too revealing??show more

I wanted to test one of the models out... and so I made a chica walking cycle for the fun of it. ============= Please note that it's not suppose to be really accurate to the movie, but have that taste from the movie. THIS IS ALSO NOT RELATED TO MY PROJECT!!show more

It tells us that for the rest of the... UK Wales continues to be mis-understood and overlooked. It also immediately repeats the failures which contributed to this thumping victory and shows how the UK establishment hasn't learnt anything.show more

Alright boys this is how you should be filming... your nugs using the iPhone camera (without the macro camera for the mfs who don’t have it this is all on x1 zoom) Left video is how I see 99% of yall film the right is how you should. Never zoom in on the nug just bring the nug as close to your camera as possible and watch the magic happen.show more

Some microbes carry a protein, called SNIPE, that "chops... up" phage DNA as it's being injected into the cell. This is a new mechanism for phage defense! CRISPR–Cas and restriction enzymes also evolved to fight against phages, but they work by recognizing sequences. SNIPE works, instead, by sensing "touch." SNIPE is a protein with about 500 amino acids. After it's made by the ribosome, it latches onto ManYZ, two proteins which sit on the cell's inner membrane. (ManYZ is an importer; it brings mannose and other sugars into the cell.) Once attached to ManYZ, SNIPE sits and waits for an invading phage. Some phages, including lambda, actually infect cells by pushing their DNA through this ManYZ channel. Lambda uses its "tail" to reach inside the protein channel, basically, and inject its DNA. When this physical touch happens, though, SNIPE is waiting. As soon as the phage DNA starts entering the cell, and passes through ManYZ and SNIPE, it gets immediately destroyed. This means that SNIPE is the first phage defense system discovered, so far, that uses spatial positioning at the injection site to destroy invaders. But there are caveats, of course. If you untether SNIPE from ManYZ, such that it can freely diffuse through the cell, it will chew up the bacterium's genome. It is not a highly discerning nuclease! Also, SNIPE is not found in most bacteria. A prior pangenome study, which sequenced lots of different microbes, found that roughly a third of well-studied bacterial lineages had at least one member with a SNIPE-like protein. (For this paper, they just ported one of those homologs into an E. coli laboratory strain.) And finally, because SNIPE's mechanism is tightly tied to ManYZ, it cannot be used to defend against phages that enter the cell through different routes. T4 phages, for example, inject their DNA straight through the cell membrane and into the cytoplasm, without interacting with ManYZ. This is a nice basic science paper. Applications TBD. (Just remember that scientists figured out that bacteria had a phage defense system, called CRISPR-Cas, many years before it was repurposed into a gene-editing tool.) P.S. The video below shows how cells with the SNIPE gene (middle row) kill invading phages, and thus continue growing and dividing. Empty vector (top row) refers to bacteria carrying a plasmid with no SNIPE gene; this is a control group. And SNIPE E414A refers to cells which received a mutated SNIPE gene, where the glutamate at position 414 has been changed to an alanine, thus destroying the protein's nuclease activity. These cells also die when they get infected with a phage.show more

The North Sea Tanker DISASTER and it is not... looking good‼️ Tidal currents heading directly for North Norfolk Coast and beyond. This will have a huge impact on the Seal and Bird Colonies as well as Marine Life.

#Hurricaneerin is hungry. It will feast on hot water... up to 88 degrees. After using this heat to power its engine, it will dissipate said heat. Leaving a cool ocean wake in its path, ~10 degrees lower than it found it. The water cools not just due to heat absorption, but also overturning /upwelling, wind and rain.show more

This shows how difficult it is to control information... in such residential areas: yesterday, the Erbil governor and other officials claimed the drone strike on the Rotana Hotel was intercepted, but this CCTV video clearly shows it was not and that it struck the target. It makes little sense to withhold the truth when what actually happened is so easy to verify.show more
