A Surprising Discovery: Oriental Hornets Capture Energy from Sun

      Whose ever think that this little creature is very amazing, it names is Oriental Hornets (Vespa orientalis). Based on new research, it has developed their body in such away so it can absorb light from solar, capture it, and used it as their life energy.

      No one knows before it, why this creature is always being very active at the highest intensity bright of sun. Now the scientist find out the answer and write it on journal Naturwissenschaften

ScienceDaily (July 29, 2010) — Neuroscientists have long wondered how individual connections between brain cells remain diverse and "fit" enough for storing new memories.

Reported in the science journal Neuron, a new study led by Dr. Inna Slutsky of the Sackler School of Medicine at Tel Aviv University describes what makes some memories stick.

The key is GABA (γ-Aminobutyric acid), a natural molecule that occurs in the brain, which could be the main factor in regulating how many new memories we can generate, the new study has found. The understanding of these mechanisms might lead to the development of new memory enhancers and new treatments for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's.
