 Full Moon Rise Auto Motion
I am sure I have gained a few #GIFhaters  :) But why have a static image when you can show motion as well. Maybe it's just cat GIFs that get to people, who knows. But they will have to embrace it cause google+ embraced it. Here is one from a few months back.

Can scientists appreciate beauty? Over 30 years ago, physicist Richard Feynman claimed that a scientist can see more beauty in a flower than an artist. Since then, science and art have combined to bring the meaning of his words to life.

Since Feynman was interviewed in 1981, the field of digital photomicrography has flourished. The "beauty at smaller dimensions" that Feynman spoke about has now been illuminated by high magnification images which enhance both scientific understanding and are often works of art in themselves. Such images and techniques have provided a rich source of inspiration for artists. Sanders says: "I have always loved the minutiae of things. Macro photography has inspired my work."

Pictures by Rosie Sanders, an artist with a particular interest in flowers.

Literally smh right now at the
Messenger and Hangout apps. When I click on Messenger, it says Hangout. There is a disconnect on the Google Plus.

Attaching screen shots.

Other than that, I do love the mobile update. :/

The New Google+ Interface: Sharing A Photo Album

The album I recently shared about the insect hotel was the first I'd done since yesterday's Google+ user interface change. It took a few minutes to work through the details of it, but what I found was that it's different from before and once you figure it out it's better than it was. Rather than have you have to go through the same discovery process, I figured I'd share the steps I went through. This assumes you have some pictures you took with your phone using Instant Upload, but the process is really similar for pictures on the computer, too. (The numbered instructions correspond to the photos attached to this post.)

1. Select Photos from the left-side selection bar to take you to your photos page.

2. You'll be in the Highlights section by default. Click on Photos on the selection bar along the... more »

Anatomy of a Google Plus Post - updated for Google+ 3.0
Google PlusTips & Google Plus Basics

Important Interactive Elements of a Google Plus Post
With the update of the Google Plus design on May 15, 2013 we have quite a few changes. To help you understand some of them, I offer a visual guide to the clickable parts of a New Google Plus Post.

All the referenced or highlighted areas are clickable, including the Poster's name and profile picture. The Options Menu (expanded on the right) will show different options if you are a viewer or the author of the post.

This post was found inside a Google Plus Community (GPC) and was captured that way to show some of the additional areas possible on a post. It was originally created out on my Profile's stream, and then reshared into a GPC called "Hangouts on Air".

Using Cornstarch to mine Gold

_ Northwestern University scientists have struck gold in the laboratory. They have discovered an inexpensive and environmentally benign method that uses simple cornstarch—instead of cyanide—to isolate gold from raw materials in a selective manner. _

This green method extracts gold from crude sources and leaves behind other metals that are often found mixed together with the crude gold. The new process also can be used to extract gold from consumer electronic waste.

Current methods for gold recovery involve the use of highly poisonous cyanides, often leading to contamination of the environment. Nearly all gold-mining companies use this toxic gold leaching process to sequester the precious metal.

He found that it was alpha-cyclodextrin, a cyclic starch fragment composed of six glucose units, that isolates gold best ofall... more »

Coq au Vin on Roasted Garlic Potato Mash - Doing it French Style

Classic dishes are a favourite of mine. Some of the classics have been perfected over time and I enjoy the old time flavour this brings. This time, I went for a classic of the French cuisine; Coq au Vin, I did change it a bit to suit my own tastes and to use available ingredients, but the seemingly simple, yet complex layered flavours of dry red wine, vegetables and herbs, combined with garlic and the savoury bacon are just wonderful.

Please note that this does involved quite a few steps one day in advance, but I enjoy the meticulous approach to this dish :)


Ingredients

Coq au Vin
10-15 Shallots
3-4 chicken thighs and legs, or 1 or a whole chicken, cut into pieces
200g / 7 ounces of thick bacon, cubed
4 tablespoons water
500g / 18 ounces of Swiss... more »

Beautiful ‘flowers’ self-assemble in a Beaker

With the hand of nature trained on a beaker of chemical fluid, the most delicate flower structures have been formed in a Harvard laboratory—and not at the scale of inches, but microns.

These minuscule sculptures, curved and delicate, do not resemble the cubic or jagged forms normally associated with crystals, though that’s what they are. Rather, fields of carnations and marigolds seem to bloom from the surface of a submerged glass slide, assembling themselves a molecule at a time.

By simply manipulating chemical gradients in a beaker of fluid, Wim L. Noorduin, a postdoctoral fellow at the Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) and lead author of a paper appearing on the cover of the May 17 issue of Science, has found that he can control the growth behavior of these crystals tocreate pr... more »
