Yeast and worms can survive hypothermia if they are first subjected to extreme oxygen deprivation, a new study finds. The results could explain a long-held mystery as to how humans can be brought back to life after "freezing to death," the scientists say. The study uncovered a previously unknown ability of organisms to survive lethal cold by temporarily slowing the biological processes that maintain life. "We have found that extension of survival limits in the cold is possible if oxygen consumption is first diminished," said researcher Mark B. Roth of Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, Wash. One form of "forced hibernation," the behavior known as "suspended animation," literally involves the sudden halting of chemical reactions in the body due to the lack of oxygen.

A 10-hour time lapse video of a garden worm embryo in the process of developing into a full-fledged baby worm showed a rapid process of cell division freeze to a stop upon the environment’s oxygen removal. Asteroid May Have Doused Prehistoric New York | Tsunami Sea Waves, Underwater Earthquakes & Volcanoes. A cosmic impact two millennia ago may have sent tsunamis deluging what is now the Big Apple, scientists suggest. Many of the giant sea waves known as tsunamis are caused by underwater earthquakes and volcanoes — for example, the devastating 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami was triggered by a quake off the northwestern coast of Sumatra.

Still, the causes of nearly 10 percent of all tsunamis nowadays remain uncertain. Cosmic impacts have been known to cause tsunamis in the past. For instance, scientists have found evidence that the Chicxulub impact in Mexico, which may have ended the age of dinosaurs, triggered gigantic waves. Now researchers have evidence suggesting that an asteroid roughly 200 yards (183 meters) wide crashed off the coast of New Jersey and sent tsunamis surging toward what is now New York City some 2,300 years ago.

Help. How to take 3D photos. A couple of weeks ago, I wrote a tutorial on how to see cross-eye 3D stereo photos on your computer screen. Today I’m going to tell you how to take your own 3D photos. The process is really very simple, and the basics can be explained in less than a minute, but to become good at taking and presenting 3D photos take a bit more time, and it’s something that really develops with practice. I hope you’ll take what you learn here and get out and get lots of practice taking 3D photos. The typical and easiest single-camera 3D photography technique is commonly called the “cha-cha” technique, for reasons which will soon become obvious. Here’s the technique in a nutshell: Taking the Photos And you’re done! Processing StereoPhoto Maker screenshot Now you’ve got two photos, but you need to make one.

I’m going to shoot my daughter’s birthday party in 3D.” – James Cameron. A revolution in photography and videography is coming. The 50′s cliche of the 3D movie and nostalgic childhood 3D viewers like the Viewmaster were ideas ahead of their time.

Pretty soon 3D will be everywhere. If you haven’t experimented with 3D photography yet, now’s the time. Anyone with a camera can take 3D photos, and with a bit of practice, most people can learn to see the 3D effect on their monitors without special glasses. All of the images below are presented in “crossed eye” format, and can be viewed by most people without any equipment or assistance. To learn how to see crosseye 3D images, I have a step by step guide for you to read. By Bart.
