Pranav Agarwal has developed a solar-powered device that aerates the surface of stagnant water in order to prevent mosquitos from laying their eggs and therefore from proliferating.

Mosquitos like to lay their eggs in stagnant or still water — the females need the surface of the water to be still in order to deposit up to 400 eggs at a time and the larvae need to stay in contact with the surface of the water in order to breathe. The Solar Scare Mosquito aims to curb the spread of mosquito-carried diseases such as malaria and dengue by disrupting the insects’ breeding grounds. It works by sitting on the surface of the water and generating air bubbles at regular intervals to produce ripples in a radius of up to two metres.

Congratulations! You’ve decided to take the next step on your fitness journey and work with a professional who can help you reach your health and wellness goals.

It takes James Robertson eight hours to make the 46-mile commute to and from work. He walks 21 of those miles every day.

Robertson, 56, is an injection molder at Schain Mold & Engineering, a plastic-parts manufacturer located in Rochester Hills, Michigan. He lives in Detroit, and for the last decade, after his 1988 Honda Accord quit on him, he has had to rely on limited public transportation, occasional rides from others and his own two feet to make the daily trek, the Detroit Free Press reported. He is unable to afford the cost of buying and maintaining a car earning just $10.55 an hour, and he hasn’t moved closer to work because his girlfriend inherited the house where they live.

Robertson leaves around 8 a.m. to arrive at work ahead of his 2 p.m. shift, which ends at 10 p.m…

For one, I love these new fairy tale fantasies. Into the Woods is well done. Into the Woods sort of reminds me of “Once Upon a Time”, which I watch on TV. There are a couple of similarities however, Into the Woods is big budget and brought to you by Disney.  Need I say more.  There’s not even too much more I can say about Meryl Streep except that she is a phenomenal actress.  Into the Woods is a delightful musical fantasy that takes Cinderella (Anna Kendrick), Rapunzel (MacKenzie Mauzy), Little Red Riding hood (Lilla Crawford) and Jack and the Beanstalk (Daniel Huttlestone),  and merges them together to make a new fairytale, with a twist.  It all starts with the Baker (James Corden) and his wife (Emily Blunt) that live in a house that was cursed many years ago.  The witch (Meryl Streep) will reverse the curse if the baker…

It took a lot of focus to get into Wild, as I found it pretty boring at first.  Reese Witherspoon is playing Cheryl Strayed a young wife, sister, daughter and substance abuser who is trying to get hold of her life by hiking, on her own volition, through the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT).  Wild is based on the memoirs of Cheryl Strayed who’s life spiraled out of control when her mother died of Cancer and her marriage failed, causing Cheryl to lose all hope.  The hike starts from the Mexican border through the Mojave Desert to the Canadian border, which she later changed to Oregon’s Bridge of the Gods.  We see Cheryl wearing a monstrous nap sack on her back, heavier than Reese herself.  The hike will take 3 months and cover more than 1,000 miles.  There’s a lot of flash backs depicting Cheryl’s life with her family, including her…

Yahoo got it new CEO it’s former Autodesk CEO Carol Bartz. Who is Carol Bartz? What exactly Carol Bartz got? Carol Bartz is a capable manager; she led Autodesk for 14 years. Autodesk is a CAD software company; its products are used by some of the world’s top architects and builders.

When dogs roll over onto their backs and expose their bellies, their behavior is a sign of submission, right? Well, new research suggests that we may be interpreting canine body language all wrong.

A new study by researchers at the University of Lethbridge in Canada and the University of South Africa shows that rolling over may be more of a combat maneuver than an act of submission.

For the study, the researchers observed a medium-sized female dog as she played one at a time with 33 different dogs. They also analyzed 20 YouTube videos showing dogs at play–examining each time a dog rolled over onto its back.

Back in 2011, a small group of PepsiCo innovators pioneered a remarkable new product spin on a classic snack—the potato chip—and helped launch what would soon become “the crunch enjoyed around the world.”

Today, their innovation—the deep-ridged potato chip—is sold by PepsiCo brands in more than 20 countries in a variety of flavors created by PepsiCo R&D to satisfy the local tastes of consumers. And like many of PepsiCo’s product innovations, deep-ridged chips are helping drive company growth. In fact, PepsiCo had nine of the top 50 new food and beverage product introductions across all measured U.S. retail channels in 2013, with innovation as a percentage of net revenue growing to 9 percent the same year.
