 There are few signs of a retaliatory terror attack against the United States because of the war in Iraq, senior government officials say, but that could change once the war is over.The New York Times Sunday reported the post-war presence of U.S. troops in Iraq could provoke violence against Americans and American interests there, in the rest of the Middle East, around the world mdash; and at home. I can t believe that they are going to do nothing after Iraq,  one senior counterterrorism official told the paper.  I ve been frankly astonished at how quiet it s been.

 Crows are far more rational than we had realized. New research shows that wild New Caledonian crows can compete with 7-year-old children when it comes to understanding causality, or how one action causes another.     Round objects always roll down hills.

Od stanley trinkflaschen dly, great apes were more successful when they could pull, rather than push, the food from the tube. Either orangutans, gorillas, chimpanzees, and bonobos have a very limited understanding of causality, or the task isn ;t really measuring what it   supposed to measure.

And it is a solemn obligation on the part of me as Commander in Chief to get those decisions right,  Obama said.The President added that his speech at West Point on Dec. 1 was the most emotional speech he has given because he was speaking to the people he was choosing to deploy, many of whom may not return from war.  And one of the mistakes that was made over the last eight years is for us to have a triumphant sense about war,  Obama said.  There was a tendency to say,  We can go in.

 Looking for an alternative to turbines for capturing wind energy, Belatchew Arkitek stanley cup ter has proposed adding a hairy addition to Stockholm   S枚der Torn. It would serve as more than an architectural toupee, capturing energy through the movement of all those tiny straws.     S枚der Torn was originally designed to stand 40 stories tall, but when it was completed in 1997, it housed just 26 stories. Belatchew Arkitekter   aptly titled Strawscraper imagines the tower built to its original proportions, its facade covered with constantly moving straws: The straws of the facade consist of a composite material with piezoelectric properties that can turn motion into electrical energy. Piezoelectricity is created when certain crystals deformation is transformed into electricity. The technique has advantages when compared to traditional wind turbines since it is quite [sic] and does not disturb wildlife.  It functions at low wind velocity since only a light breeze is sufficient for the straws to start swaying and generate e stanley cup price nergy. The existing premise on top of the building is replaced with a public floor with room for a restaurant.

The idea is that the residential building would double as a power plant, and from the ground, the building would appear as a living, bre
