Android Shows Off People-Lifting Skills

In a public demonstration held in Tokyo on March 28, a human-sized android showed off its weightlifting skills by successfully picking up a 30-kilogram (66-pound) package from a desk and lifting a 66-kilogram (145-pound) humanoid doll out of bed.

The 155-centimeter (61-inch) tall, 70-kilogram (154-pound) robot demonstrated different maneuvers for different situations; only a small amount of power is applied at each of this robot’s joints, but it can successfully move heavy objects by using the tactile sensors to regulate how it lifts and carries things.

Mummified Remains of a Fairy?

I'm not an anthropologists or forensic expert, but this does seem to be an urban legend to me.

What appears to be the mummified remains of a fairy have been discovered in the Derbyshire countryside… The remains were discovered by a local man, who wishes to remain anonymous, while walking his dog along an old Roman road situated between the villages of Duffield and Belper…

The remains, complete with wings, skin, teeth and flowing red hair have been examined by anthropologists and forensic experts who can confirm that the body is genuine.

With numbers like these and an all-wheel-drive system for superior handling, the RS3 is sure to give Mercedes-Benzand BMW a run for their money.

Mustard yellow - 100% recyclable. 100% self-sufficient. 100% rural tourism.

Tea green - Darjeeling is the champagne of teas, grown high in the valleys where the world's smallest train does its rounds. Assam is known for its full-bodied flavor, as robust as the one-horned rhino that roams in its plains. In Munnar, you could even get a taste of a planter's life in sprawling bungalows, British-era buildings with tennis, golf, bridge and of course high tea.

Water colors - 232 lakes. 273 rivers. 7,517 km of coastline. Incredible. Choose your color.
