Penis shape important
LONDON – Size is usually more of an issue but the shape of the penis is also important because it evolved to dispel other men's semen, according to scientists in the United States.
Gordon Gallup and researchers at the State University of New York showed in experiments using latex replicas, an artificial vagina and a cornstarch mixture that the ridge of the penis acted as a semen displacement device. They found that the coronal ridge could scoop out more than 90 percent.
Dragonfly can hold missiles
London – The seemingly magical dances of the dragonfly could provide the model for devastating new anti-aircraft weaponry. Scientists believe the techniques used by dragonflies and hoverflies to trick their prey could be mimicked by anti-aircraft missiles, the New Scientist reported.
The prospective missiles would adopt a strategy of ‘motion camouflage’ where predator insects make their prey think they are stationary when they are moving closer.
