Elsewhere for June 16th
These are my delicious links for June 16th:
- Microbe Wakes Up After 120,000 Years – Forgetting the lessons of Jurrasic Park, scientists have "awaken" a strain of bacteria called Hermeniimonas glacei from a 120,000-year slumber trapped beneath a block of ice. What could go wrong?
"We don't know what state they were in," said study team member Jean Brenchley of Pennsylvania State University. "They could've been dormant, or they could've been slowly metabolizing, but we don't know for sure."
- The Treepe; a tent, a castle, a trampoline, a swing. – The Treepee® is an exciting new product that combines the timeless appeal of a tree house with the excitement of aerial suspension and a trampoline to create a whole world of possibilities.
Zipped safely inside, standing Treepee® riders, once they get their balance, can experience a surfing/snowboarding sensation without any worries of falling. The less adventurous can simply ‘hang out’ with their friends in their own private space away from mum and dad.
