Light Painting, Long Exposures, and a simple explanation of how CCD sensors work on Digital Cameras
Posted by Pete Berg on Tuesday, February 21st, 2012 at 2:20 pm
One of my favorite YouTube channels, Smarter Every Day, did a really cool demonstration of “Light Painting” with long exposure cameras. Enjoy.

Biologist Karl Berg asks the question, “How do parrots learn their names?” Are they genetically encoded or are the learned from their parents?

How the odd path of the Laryngeal Nerve helps prove evolution
Posted by Pete Berg on Sunday, May 29th, 2011 at 4:11 pm
An interesting anomoly among animals is the path of the laryngeal nerve — a long nerve which connects the brain to the voicebox. While the two organs are only inches apart, and a direct path between the two would make far more sense from a design or engineering perspective, the nerve actually goes down the entire length of the animal’s neck, loops around a blood vessel near the heart, and then runs all the way back up to the larynx (voice box). This odd path can be explained by evolution — as Richard Dawkins demonstrates in this video clip, with a dissection of a giraffe and then a discussion of how this oddity evolved.
