An experiment was carried out at our laborataries to investigate the flow through two pipes of same diameter fitted at the same height from water level inside of a water tank as shown. It is found the longer pipe line inside the water tank generates a higher speed resulting more powerfull flow. Flow in this pressure pipe develops due to gravitational accelaration on a horizontally flowing water column also, when it is an enclosed stream of flow. If this length is short it is not possible to d...
Remember Grandma-approved eco-friendly mud graffiti? London native Helen Nodding has taken a similar approach: non-destructive moss graffiti. Helen was inspired by the cold hard steel, glass, and concrete of the city:
Anna The Red is the greatest Bento artist I have come across on the web. She's so highly regarded she even did an ad for Google. Check it out: For those of you who don't know, Bento is a "single-portion takeout or home-packed meal common in Japanese cuisine". When bento is arranged in an elaborate style (such as people, animals, characters, plants, etc.) it is referred to as kyaraben or charaben (a shortened version of character bento).
This is more of an endurance challenge than a prank. Everyone will be locked in a room and provided with water (possibly a room with a clear acrylic wall like a racket ball court and an air lock). The temperature will be kept at a balmy 85-100 degrees. Other than participants and their water supply, the only other thing in the room will be one of those geriatric potty chairs, the kind with the bucket underneath that has to be emptied and a large drum to empty it in. Everyone has three days to...
In this tutorial, we learn how to prune hybrid tea roses with Peter Kukielski. When pruning, look at the entire plant and cut the upper branches to simplify the plant. You will remove the bush down to 12 or 14 inches. If you have a lot of branching, reduce them by trimming at the bottom and another branch will grow in where that was. Also, remove any buds that are swollen and aren't going to grow out. You can also trim off any interior growing buds that are growing the wrong way. If you notic...

Real-time strategy (RTS) was the most popular genre in PC games at one time. It put Blizzard on the map—one of the biggest game developers in the world. And it buried the once venerable turn-based strategy genre, the only survivor being the Civilization series. But like hair metal in the late ‘80s, RTS reached its saturation point. Many bands (games) were too similar and used ornamentation over innovation. Suddenly, the fans left. From ’95 to ’03, Command & Conquer releases were more like new...

From a biplane, fly real low over a crowd of people and drop soap foam on them while people standing on the wings throw water balloons. If you can't fly low enough for foam, just drop giant water balloons from the plane and call it "Bombs Away".
In 2006, I was a freshman in college staying in a dorm hall that was populated by mostly fratboys. Since it was the cheapest and most ghetto dorm I took that as part of their initiation that they had to stay there before they moved on to the house, or however that works. My idea was to spray cooking spray outside on the floor of everyone's doorway, place cheap smoke bombs strategically so that they would eventually trip the fire alarm and film everyone coming out of their rooms, falling one b...
Natural processes often create objects that have a fractal quality. Fractal branching patterns occur in plants, blood vessel networks, rivers, fault lines, and in several electrical phenomena. Many of these processes take lifetimes, or even occur on geological timescales. But this is not the case for electrical phenomena. They often occur near instantaneously. One example would be the branching patterns that sometimes occur in lightning.
