Freezing Weather In Germany Massacres 300 Circus Fleas
An entire troupe of 300 performing fleas have fallen victim to the freezing weather gripping Germany.
The acrobatic insects, which were due to appear at an open-air fair in the western town of Mechernich-Kommern, were found dead inside their transport box on Wednesday morning.
Flea circus director Robert Birk said it was the first time he had lost all his fleas in one go because of cold weather.
As they say in the business, however, the show must go on and the circus immediately scrambled to find and train a new batch of insects so it could fulfill its engagements at the fair.
Michael Faber, who organizes the fair, said an insect expert at a nearby university was able to provide 50 fleas in time for the first show on Sunday.
Faber added he hopes they’ll “get through this without any more fatalities.”
Fleas are famous for their phenomenal strength which allows them to pull 160,000 times their own weight and jump to heights 100 times their size.
According to the warmists, the extreme cold in Europe is due to Global Warming, so Global Warming has it's first victims.
How To Know When Your Kristallnacht Is Coming...
Kristallnacht (German pronunciation: [kʁɪsˈtalˌnaχt]), Crystal Night; also referred to as the Night of Broken Glass, or Reichskristallnacht [ˌʁaɪçs.kʁɪsˈtalˌnaχt], Pogromnacht (help·info) [poˈgʁoːmˌnaχt], and Novemberpogrome (help·info) [noˈvɛmbɐ.poˌgʁoːmə], was a pogrom (a series of coordinated attacks) against Jews throughout Nazi Germany and parts of Austria on 9–10 November 1938, carried out by SA paramilitary and civilians. German authorities looked on without intervening.[1] The attacks left the streets covered with broken glass from the windows of Jewish-owned stores, buildings, and synagogues.[2]
At least 91 Jews were killed in the attacks, and 30,000 were arrested and incarcerated in concentration camps.[2] Jewish homes, hospitals, and schools were ransacked, as the attackers demolished buildings with sledgehammers.[3] Over 1,000 synagogues were burned (95 in Vienna alone) and over 7,000 Jewish businesses destroyed or damaged.[4][5] Martin Gilbert writes that no event in the history of German Jews between 1933 and 1945 was so widely reported as it was happening, and the accounts from the foreign journalists working in Germany sent shock waves around the world.[3] The Times wrote at the time: "No foreign propagandist bent upon blackening Germany before the world could outdo the tale of burnings and beatings, of blackguardly assaults on defenseless and innocent people, which disgraced that country yesterday."[6]
The pretext for the attacks was the assassination of the German diplomat Ernst vom Rath by Herschel Grynszpan, a German-born Polish Jew resident in Paris. Kristallnacht was followed by additional economic and political persecution of Jews, and is viewed by historians as part of Nazi Germany's broader racial policy, and the beginning of the Final Solution and The Holocaust.[7]

New DNA-Based Transistor Brings Us One Step Closer to True Human Computers
Ashley Feinberg
The increasingly ambiguous divide between man and machine just got blurred that much more with Stanford's recent announcement: scientists have successfully created the first truly biological transistor made entirely out of genetic material.
Considering that transistors are essentially the foundation of modern electronics, it certainly seems fitting that genetically engineered versions of our very own building blocks, DNA and RNA, make up the newly dubbed "transcriptor." By embedding a microscopic portion of a DNA molecule inside a living cell, researchers were able to control the flow of RNA, which translates DNA's instructions to the cell. Just like a transistor regulates electrical currents, the researcher-controlled transcriptor can essentially direct an en entire living cell.
On a practical level, this means theoretically being able to command cancerous cells to stop multiplying, monitor general health, and create drugs in response to the presence of certain enzymes. Of course, the transistor is only part of the equation, and it may still be some time before we see a complete human computer walking around. Still, the potential doors this development just opened truly are incredible to imagine. [The Independent]

The Hearst Castle is Californian Historical Sight mansion on Central Coast in California. It has been built between 1919 and 1947 and it is designed by architect Julia Morgan. The castle has been designed for William Randolph Hearst who died in 1951. Since that castle has been donated to the state of California and has been stated as historical park. The few things that caught our attention are indoor and outdoor pools, library, dinning area, jewel box and exterior design.
