    Zoom inside a leaf

    "An electron microscope zooms in on a leaf, until you can in the insides of cells. Beautiful, incredible. Galileo would have wet himself with delight, I almost did." http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4mtsz_zo...nto-a-leaf_tech

    Electronic Cigarettes banned

    What a crock of shit. IS this Federal or State? Has anyone ever used tobacco in vap? I have a volcano in storage and wanted to use it with mixed weed but a). it left nasty stains on the gauze and . someone told me that vaping tobacco was actually more carcinogenic, although I could never find anything that backed this up.

    Tired doctors told to drink more coffee

    Caffeine is going to be more effective than coca leaf. I find it useful at altitude but as a stimulant its pretty damned mild. Modafinil ftw

    Billion ton CME

    Journo's were worried in the lead up to the Iraq invasion about EMP bombs being dropped by the yanks to shut down communications, they were wrapping their equipmwent in tin foil which was supposedly enough to protect equipment from an electrical surge like that.

    The world's first cocaine bar

    I wish the guardian would fuck off. They fucked up the San Pedro prison for a few weeks when I was in La Paz because they did an expose on it. Anyway, Route 36 can be fun but it is hardly a "cocaine" bar, all they sll is the shitty, glittering chem that has flooded Bolivia over the last few years, it's either some sort of amp or mdpv type stimulant. Rubbish stuff and badly overpriced, anywhere between $10-$30 a gram. It's actually quite hard to find decent blow in La Paz, less so in the jungle or Santa Cruz.

    Other forums

    What forums do people use? I need a new one, something with a dedicated politics subforum but not a politics forum because they are full of wonks and nongs, I'm looking for something with a wide variety of users who can hold an intlligent discussion without being obsessed about poliics.

    Load of utter, utter twaddle...
  14. Erm... Not that I disagree but where does the article mention the CSIRO? edit Ah, my mistake http://www.csiro.au/resources/FuelForThoughtReport.html It´s just when I saw a quote from the ACF and nothing from the CSIRO I jumped to conclusions - didn´t realise the report was comissioned by the CSIRO

    'Major discovery' from MIT

    Well, hydrogen has always been a case of storing energy - just a very, very inefficient way of doing so. The revolutionary part about this is that it is storing solar energy and not fossil fuel energy.

    Australian Federal Police seize 4.4 tonnes of drugs

    Wow... Some big names involved here, also some seemingly unprecedented co-operation between rival groups. Higgs is definitely a big fish, he can´t be long out of gaol for his massive meth operations in the ´90´s... And Pat barbaro, my friend spent a few months sharing a dorm with him in the low security Sale prison. A nice guy by all accounts, and he made a mean ricotta cheescake too...
  18. Ayahuasca tradition declared cultural heritage in Peru Ayahuasca tradition declared cultural heritage in Peru The Peruvian Institute of National Culture has declared the knowledge and traditional uses of ayahuasca as national cultural heritage, in order to guarantee their cultural continuation within native Amazonian communities. This resolution was published on July 12 in the law bulletin of the national daily El Peruano. It states that ayahuasca (Banisteriopsis caapi) is a plant specimen with an extraordinary cultural history due to its psychotropic qualities that are to be experienced when combined in a brew containing the plant known as chacruna. B. caapi is in the indigenous world known as a 'master' plant which teaches to its initiates the very foundations of the world and its components. https://secure.azarius.net/news/244/Ayahuas...ritage_in_Peru/

    Exotic Potheads

    Not Peru, Iquitos... It's because the gay population had to flee the repression of the military and many gravitated to the relative safety of Iquitos and the jungle... Apparently that's why the night life in Iquitos is so vibrant. Like the rest of the continent Peru has a very macho society, Iquitos is somewhat of an oasis from what I can gather.

    I like some of the other titles in the series - 'My first ASBO and how to violate it', 'My first joint', and 'People at work: The Benefit Cheat'
