The Robo Raven Is So Lifelike, It Fools Birdbrains
Jun 10, 8:47PM
We've been trying to create robots that mimic natural bird-flight for years, but they've only ever achieved a crude imitation. This is largely because, unlike the robots, real birds can move their wings independently.

Exactly 261 Years Ago, Ben Franklin Flew a Kite in a Lightning Storm
Jun 10, 8:42PM
Benjamin Franklin first shocked himself in 1746, while conducting experiments on electricity with found objects from around his house. Six years later and exactly 261 years ago today, the founding father flew a kite attached to a key and a silk ribbon in a thunderstorm and effectively trapped lightning in a jar. The experiment is now seen as a watershed moment in mankind's question to channel a force of nature once thought to be the wrath of God himself. It's also understood that Ben Franklin was pretty effing lucky he didn't fry his bones on that fateful early June afternoon in 1752. Based on what he'd contribute to the nation in the years after that, America is pretty lucky, too.

Jun 10, 8:21PM
Making pizza at home can be cheaper and healthier than delivery, but constantly having to adjust the shelves in your oven and move around a pizza stone almost makes it not worth the effort. Instead of just resorting to delivery, though, consider upgrading your oven to Teka's HL 45.15 which features a dedicated pizza drawer. Suddenly, every night becomes pizza night—until you get sick of it, of course.
