If I am the Dutch frigate stuck on a reef in a dead calm in the same cove the Aurelia sank three years earlier in less than 30 feet of the clearest water in the world...
EB: Yeah. We're hoping to use this as a way of testing what neural codes can drive certain behaviors and certain thoughts and certain feelings and use that to understand more about the brain.
However, there was another case, the Eastland, a ship that capsized in Chicago Harbor in 1915, and it killed 841 people -- that was 14 more than the passenger toll of the Titanic.
But David's young and he's smart and he wants a Ph.D., and he proceeds to build -- (Laughter) He proceeds to build the first ever liquid metal battery of this chemistry.
私は 博士号が あと少しで 取得出来るという時 起業家熱に かかってしまいました
When I was nearly done with my PhD, I got bitten by that entrepreneurial bug.
I mean, we don't know the detailed answer, but we know the basic part of the answer, and that is, there is a sequence of neuron firings, and they terminate where the acetylcholine is secreted at the axon end-plates of the motor neurons.
These signals start a chemical cascade that floods the body with several different stress hormones, causing physiological changes that prepare the body to defend itself.
I was flying on a trip, and I was witness to an incident where a passenger attempted to board before their number was called, and I watched the gate agent treat this man like he had broken the law, like a criminal.
A beautiful song can play, a pretty girl could walk by, they don't care, but they see a crossbar to a capital A, they get very excited and they say "crossbar, " and they put out a high probability on their output axon.
So CMU allows 32 possible symbols, but as you can see, there's only a small number that most people are using, so we're not actually getting very much strength from the symbols in our passwords.
Now, like anything else in nature, when things get a little too tight, the signal is enhanced, causing the cancer cells to move away faster from the primary site and spread to a new site.
The Star Trek Enterprise had to travel vast distances at incredible speeds to orbit other planets so that First Officer Spock could analyze the atmosphere to see if the planet was habitable or if there were lifeforms there.
With many of the same signs appearing in such far-flung places, especially in that 30, 000 to 40, 000-year range, it's starting to seem increasingly likely that this invention actually traces back to a common point of origin in Africa.
If a potential mate has managed to pass all these tests, there's still one more: the infamous first kiss, a rich and complex exchange of tactile and chemical cues, such as the smell of one's breath, and the taste of their mouth.
Your phone records the signal arrival time and uses it to calculate the distance to the satellite using the simple formula, distance = c x time, where c is the speed of light and time is how long the signal traveled.
After this productive period, signals within the skin instruct some follicles to enter a new phase known as catagen, or the regressing stage, causing hair follicles to shrink to a fraction of their original length.
All but two of the sums are unique, and if the hallway number had matched any of these, Zara would have known the correct combination right then and there without asking for the third clue.
A reflex signal travels back to your bladder, making the detrusor muscle contract slightly and increasing the bladder's pressure so you're aware that it's filling up.
She knows how different wavelengths of light stimulate three types of cone cells in the retina, and she knows how electrical signals travel down the optic nerve into the brain.
So one day, I was standing on a corner waiting for the light to change, which, I'm a New Yorker, so that means I was actually standing in the street on the storm drain, as if that could get me across faster.
So depending on the decisions we make in the next few months, the next year or so, if designer baby number one is born, within a few decades, there could well be millions of genetically modified humans.
もしチャレンジャー号が 宇宙時代における Windows 2000のような 代物だったとしたら — （笑） Oリングの信頼性など 問題にならなかったでしょう どうせクラッシュするんだから
If the Challenger were kind of the space era equivalent of Microsoft Windows 2000 -- (Laughter) the reliability of the O-ring wouldn't have mattered because the machine would have crashed.
It has a depiction of a typical -- apparently -- male and female, and our approximate location in the Solar System, in case the Pioneer spacecraft ever encounters extraterrestrials.
もし 十分な数のセンサーが 活性化すると 電気信号が神経から脊髄 そして脳まで 一気に流れます
If enough sensors are activated, electrical signals shoot up the nerve to the spine and on to the brain.
And in fact, America was the first country that ever did mail-delivery queens and in fact, it's part of the postal code that you have to deliver queens by mail in order to make sure that we have enough bees in this country.
(Laughter) They tend to overgeneralize, they use words like "always, " "never, " "every, " "this always happens to me, " "I never get what I want" or "I hit every stoplight on the way here today."
So even though a signal may come from the same functional part of the brain, by the time the structure has been folded, its physical location is very different between individuals, even identical twins.
When the Prestige sank off the coast of Spain, there were big, floating cushions the size of sofa cushions of emulsified oil, with the consistency, or the viscosity, of chewing gum.
If I am the Dutch frigate stuck on a reef in a dead calm in the same cove the Aurelia sank three years earlier in less than 30 feet of the clearest water in the world...
