How studying bats' flight technique could lead to drone development

Long-eared bats are assisted in flight by their ears and body, according to a study by researchers at Lund University in Sweden. The recent findings improve researchers’ understanding of the bats’ flying technique and could be significant for the future development of drones, among other things.Contrary to what researchers have previously thought, Christoffer Johansson Westheim and his colleagues at Lund University show that long-eared bats are helped in flight by their large ears.

“We show how the air behind the body of a long-eared bat accelerates downwards, which means that the body and ears provide lift. This distinguishes the long-eared bats from other species that have been studied and indicates that the large ears do not merely create strong resistance, but also assist the animal in staying aloft”, says Christoffer Johansson Westheim-read more and see video

URBAN BIGFOOT INTERVIEW

Thank you for asking! I was inspired when I was about 8 years old. I heard the stories around me that Bigfoot was in our woods at night. I started building a shack in the woods on my own at age 12. I listened and observed alot. Almost daily. I moved away and here in Mid Missouri I had heard of 2 sightings in my area within 30 miles of my home. I started hiking more and looking for tree damage, formations and nests. My goal is too capture a clear image of an interaction with the female I have seen from about 100 feet away. I had believed it was a male but due to the time of day, I changed that description to female. I firmly believe that after watching Missing 411 and comparing my own notes that the Bigfoot communities are underground. There is no other explanation that makes sense other than what I have been told as a child and facts that I have now. There has never been a sighting of a sleeping Bigfoot. No one has ever photographed evidence that they live above ground. My book Urban Bigfoot is based on this theory. As far as where I am going with it, I am unsure. New field research and conferences are planned for most of the next year. I wrote a simple children's book, The Bigfoot Farm to get children interested in our love for Bigfoot.

PETER CAREY INTERVIEW

My inspiration comes from many attributes. The 'scene' being just one of them. You see people going through their journeys and how modification is constantly evolving. Seeing people get body modification is inspirational in itself because you see how happy they are as a result and with the changes that take place with new and existing mods, you can't resist getting something new. My aims.. I'm proud to be modified and I'll happily continue with it as I find it very satisfying. I want to become a modification artist in the future. As a body piercer, I enjoy meeting people and being a part of the journey they take with the piercing. It's not just a piece of metal going into flesh; it's a trust bond and a personal moment shared between two people. I want to be a part of the modification journey that people take also. For the future I want to reach 101 piercings (I have over 80 at the moment) and more modifications. These include but not limited to magnetic implants under all finger tips, silicone implants under my hands, one of which is likely to be a north star styled implant (it flashes when activated by a magnetic implant) and more scarification. From there, I'll see where my journey takes me.

BANK CLOSURE -ARRRH.

We had a letter in the post from our local branch of BARCLAYS BANK,HOLSWORTHY  to state it was shutting down this branch in October 2017 .I know some may think not a problem but it starts to breed fear that others will follow .The move is blamed on online banking and not enough people using the bank .If you are  like me mistrust online banking due to rise of cyber crime and prefer to not travel miles to go to bank you may use the post office to pay money into most bank accounts.
