I grew up during a time when adults told you to eat all your food if you wanted dessert. All your food was often what was put on your plate by an adult. Not only were we being taught to disregard our body's full meters, but also that the reward for overeating was more high calorie yummy food. Not the best message to grow up with.
This is very cool. From way back in 1971 a professor Leon Chua at the University of California (Berkeley) wrote a paper describing four basic passive electrical components: resistors, capacitors, inductors, and memristors. Until this year, the last one of these was only theoretical in nature, but some bright folks have finally cracked it.
This is likely to crack open a whole boatload of new types of circuits and electronic applications. Very, very cool.
Anatomy of a Racer: Only Elite Athletes Can Vanquish Rivals at Triple-Digit Speeds

Admit it: You think driving a race car is easy. With closed tracks and all that horsepower, who needs talent — let alone athletic prowess? But unless you've trained your heart like a distance runner, built your muscles like a football player, and conditioned your body to withstand 150-degree heat, you'd probably kill yourself and several bystanders by the third turn.
Dishing out inertial forces of up to 5 gs, racing is one of the most grueling tests your body can endure while seated. Success demands a rare ability to stay calm and focused for hours while piloting a screaming land rocket mere inches from other victory-obsessed psychos. The best way to prepare is in an actual race car on an actual racetrack. But track time costs tens of thousands of dollars a day. To keep fit without bankrupting their backers, drivers spend hours in front of simulators, log hundreds of human-powered miles, and go turbo at the gym. Here's a look at the anatomy of an auto racer.
I tried to do 60 minutes on-track @ full speed during a 90F degree day, while wearing long pants, a long sleeve t-shirt and race helmet. After 40 minutes I almost passed out. Then again I don't have the body of a heavy lifter, more like the body of a heavy reader.
