A non-mythological unicorn?   So it seems.   Unicorns have been mentioned throughout history, in mythology and in the works of The Bible and Pliny the Elder's Natural History.    Today the modern westernized unicorn is pure white and hangs out with virgins.

In zoology, it is never so simple.

In 1992, in Vietnam's Vu Quang Nature Reserve near the country's border with Laos, a spectacular zoological discovery occurred.  A creature with long horns (sorry unicorn fans - two of them) and white facial markings, and resembling the antelopes of North Africa but more closely related to wild cattle, a new species called the Saola was discovered.

A new study in Heart says a combination of depression and heart disease is far more lethal than either one of those condition alone.

Depressed people are more likely to die from all causes so it's difficult to narrow down whether or not depressed people with heart disease are at greater risk and people who who are depressed, but otherwise healthy, have been shown to be more likely to develop coronary heart disease, irrespective of what other risk factors they might have. 

On September 16th the 2010 World Solar-Powered Air Conditioning Development Forum was held in Dezhou, a municipality of China's Shandong Province.

What is really happening in apparently empty areas of the Galaxy?   It may get a rethink because scientists have managed to find a molecule that has an unexpectedly complicated structure in interstellar clouds of extremely small density. 

Translucent interstellar clouds are penetrated by highly energetic ultraviolet and cosmic radiation which should break any chemical species it meets but a group of scientists have managed to observe in those clouds a molecule made up of an unexpectedly large number of atoms: the diacetylene cation; a discovery which may contribute to solving the oldest unsolved puzzle of spectroscopy.

The density of translucent interstellar clouds is extremely small.

Tolerance has meant different things in different eras.  For some religions in the past, there was a 'convert or die' mentality, which tended to drive out competitors but, at least when it comes to works of art, old religions have always survived.

A fresco of Tyche, the Greek goddess of fortune from the Byzantine period had been discovered at the Sussita site, on the east shore of the Sea of Galilee, and a maenad, one of the companions of the wine god Dionysus, was found also.  The city of Sussita is located within the Sussita National Park under the management of the Israel Nature and Parks Authority.

Human vision is very advanced.  While a human child can look at a cartoon picture of a chicken and know that's a chicken, computers cannot.   We can also recognize cars, people, trees and lampposts instantaneously on a busy street without much thought and decide what to do.

That's an enormous number of computations and just one reason that coming up with a computer-driven system that can mimic the human brain in visually recognizing objects has been difficult.  Eugenio Culurciello of Yale's School of Engineering&Applied Science has developed a machine dubbed Neuflow, which is 'based' on the human visual system and operates much more quickly and efficiently than predecessors, coming closer to the mammalian visual system.
