Quantum Entanglement Suggests Time Travel is Possible
We may not be able to send scientists gallivanting around in time to right the wrongs of the past (yet), but physicists at the University of Queensland in Australia have discovered that the peculiar quantum phenomenon of entanglement applies not only through space, but through time as well. Entanglement, famously referred to as “spooky” by Einstein, is the quantum property that involves two or more particles so closely linked that any changes to one also occur in the other(s). The Queensland physicists believe that thinking about the universe as consisting of one dimension of space and one dimension of time can begin to demonstrate how entangled atoms can span time as well as space. Looking at the above graph, the x-axis represents spatial dimension and the y-axis represents time. However, the Queensland research indicates that it is possible to travel from the present to the future without traveling through the time in between the two – possible for a particle, anyway.

The Art of Photographing Human Body Parts in Close-Up
Photographic portraits are meant to emphasize a person’s face features, to give an overview of how they look like and “freeze” their appearance as the years go by. Creativity unleashed portrays not only faces and silhouettes, but also body parts, like lips, eyes, mouths, feet and other expressive parts of the human body. This showcase proves in 50 photos that close-up portraits can be magnificent, can have a meaning and a strong message.
Raise the Roof: Elevated Urban Bus Defeats Traffic Jams
City buses can be both a blessing and a curse as far as urban traffic is concerned. They can take a number of cars off of the road by offering an alternative means of commuting, but they can also hold traffic up with their low speeds and frequent stops. In an effort to clear up urban Chinese streets, a company called Shenzhen Hashi Future Parking Equipment Co. came up with this strange-looking futuristic bus concept. The 3D Fast Bus is a massive elevated two-lane-wide vehicle that actually straddles the lanes, with the main bulk of the vehicle riding well above the cars on the road.
Camera Lens
Once you've settled on the subject and the light, you have to decide on the relative prominence of objects in the scene. By moving the camera position back and forth, you can adjust the relative size of objects in the scene. After you're happy with the position, you pick a camera lens whose angle of view encompasses all the objects that you want to include in the photo. Objects? Relative prominence?

Cool Electronic Pen Measures Up With Internal Power Plant
The Electronic Pen concept from designer Jang Hyung-Jin is a small gadget that packs a lot of functionality into its pocket-size design. The pen’s internal sensor measures the speed and number of rotations the ball point makes, measuring the exact distance your pen draws and eliminating the need for a ruler. This isn’t the first measuring pen concept to see the light of day, but it does have an intriguing difference: no batteries. The pen gets a charge out of an internal “power plant” that generates electricity when you shake the pen. A small LCD screen displays just how far you’ve drawn. The pen’s unique shape keeps it from resting on the tiny screen, so there’s no worrying about the display being scratched up from careless placement.
Camera Lenses"
In the last section, we saw that at any one point, a lens bends light beams to a certain total degree, no matter the light beam's angle of entry. This total "bending angle" is determined by the structure of the lens. A lens with a rounder shape (a center that extends out farther) will have a more acute bending angle. Basically, curving the lens out increases the distance between different points on the lens.
