Top 10 New Species Named (2007)
Thousands of new plant and animal species were discovered in 2007, though only 10 were bizarre enough, lethal enough or just plain cool enough to garner spots on a new Top-10 list.
Each year, the International Institute for Species Exploration (IISE) at Arizona State University issues the Top 10 New Species list, which spotlights flora and fauna described during the previous year, so in this case 2007.

I find it fascinating that for as long as humans have been searching that they still are encountering new species. Thousands of new plant and animal species were discovered in 2007, though only 10 were bizarre enough, lethal enough or just plain coo... more -

Declining Population affects Japan's Coming of Age Day: Seijin-no-Hi Part II
2007 was the lowest turn out for Adult Day in 20 years.
"The overall figure of today's 20 year olds is a grim 1.09% of the entire population. This year's low numbers has rekindled the brooding fear of a top-heavy population of the elderly over a smaller population of youth." 2007 was the lowest turn out for Adult Day in 20 years. ... more -
Samurai Dave's 2007 In Review
Another year has come and gone and in soppy melodramatic fashion, it's time to look back on all we've done and didn't do. Instead of focusing on love or lack there of or personal growth, I've look back through the magic of film and video on all the places and things I saw in 2007.
The following is a photo montage video of the travels, festivals, and events I experienced in 2007. It's a little too long for Current (8 and half minutes!) so I'm just posting my Youtube Link.
I've got photos of sumo, ninja, geisha, samurai, medieval Italian towns, German castles, a slew of Japanese festivals, and one good ole dog.
For more info on the photos, check my blog at:

Put mirrors to the Solar tower's wall ! More potential? More capacity?
It will collect more sun energy? Put mirrors to the Solar tower's wall ! More potential? More capacity? This is the PS10 solar power tower. Seville, Spain.
It will collect more sun energy, because the solar tower/sun tower's wall mirror (1) reflect sun energy to the other sun panels, which are in the ground (2) / floor, than they collect from the sun direct too? And efficient / stronger sun energy goes to the top? (3)

NYC ball drop gets a birthday and a makeover
Oh how lucky! New York's most famous tradition, Time Square ball drop, celebrates it's 100th birthday today (Monday).
For it's present ... a makeover. Not just any makeover, an eco-friendly makeover:
This year the 1,415-pound ball has been outfitted with more than 9,500 energy-efficient light-emitting diodes that will illuminate the ball's more than 600 crystals. The LEDs will use the same amount of electricity as about 10 toasters, say event officials. Oh how lucky!
