Obwohl Toyota bei seinem RAV4 des Modelljahrgangs 2013 zumindest in der USA-Version - in den Bereichen Lenksäule und Fußraum das neue Modell nachgebessert hat, ist es beim von dem anerkannten amerikanischen Insurace Insitute für Highway Safety (IIHS) durchgeführten Frontalcrasch mit kleiner Überlappung durchgefallen. Mit dem Crash, bei dem mit einer Geschwindigkeit von 40 Meilen (64,37 km/h) 25 Prozent der Front auf eine Barriere treffen, werden die Auswirkungen eines Unfalls simuliert, bei dem zwei Fahrzeuge mit ihren Frontecken zusammenstoßen beziehungsweise das Auto auf einen Baum prallt. Ein sehr realistischer Test, den das Institut erst seit vergangenem Jahr zu seinen vier anderen Crashformen – moderate Überlappung der Front, Seite, Überschlag und Heck – hinzugefügt hat und inzwischen mit der „moderaten Überlappung“ zusammen als wichtigsten Test ansieht. Der – wegen der Nachbesserungen des Herstellers – extra verschoben, verlief nun alles andere als erfolgreich. Laut IIHS wurde die Karosserie-Struktur schwer beschädigt und drang teilweise in den Fußraum, so dass auch der linke Fuß des Fahrers – wenn es kein Dummy gewesen wäre – verletzt worden wäre. Darüber hinaus zeigte sich der Frontal-Airbag als „nutzlos“, da die Lenksäule durch den Aufprall nach rechts gebogen wurde und der Kopf des Dummys kaum geschützt wurde. Und obendrein arbeitete der Sicherheitsgurt nicht korrekt, so das Kopf und Oberkörper auf das Armaturenbrett prallten. Auch wenn der RAV4bei den anderen vier Crashtest überall mit der Note „Gut“ abgeschnitten hatte, gab es nur ein Urteil: Schlecht.
Mehr als 160.000 Besucher werden zum diesjährigen Caravan Salon in Düsseldorf, der weltgrößten Schau rund um die mobile Freizeit erwartet. Das Angebot der 570 Aussteller aus 22 Ländern in neun Hallen und auf dem Freigelände reicht vom kleinen und einfachen Caravan für zwei Personen über die immer beliebter werdenden kompakten Vans, Kastenwagen und Campingbussen bis zu den Luxus-Reisemobilen. Aber natürlich gibt es auch eine Fülle von Zubehör, Ausbauteilen und Campingausstattung zu sehen. In Düsseldorf dürfte also jeder fündig werden, der sich ein Freizeitfahrzeug zulegen möchte. Höhepunkt des umfangreichen Rahmenprogramms ist der Offroad-Parcours im Freigelände, wo auch Besucher in einem der schweren Geländewagen mitfahren können.
Richard Dawkins gençlere yönelik olarak Evren, Dünya, canlılar ve diğer birçok konuya ilişkin sorulara bilimle cevap verdiği son kitabı The Magic of Reality'deki "İlk İnsan Kimdi?" adlı bölümde bahsi geçen, gözle görülemeyen evrimi (diğer bir deyişle bakteri ve virüslerdeki kadar hızlı görülmeyen) kavrayabilmemiz için bir düşünce deneyi gerçekleştiriyor. Evrim sürekli devam eden bir süreç. Bu yüzden milyonlarca yıllık bir ağaç üzerinde sadece belli duraklardaki dallara bakarak çeşitli isimler veriyoruz: Homo sapiens (modern insan), Homo erectus, Homo neanderthalensis gibi... Hepsi bu zincirin bir devamı olduğundan ilk insan kimdi sorusu da anlamını yitiriyor. Önce bebek, sonra çocuk, sonra yetişkin, en sonunda da yaşlanmamız gibi bu kesintisiz süreç hep devam ediyor ve bebeklik, çocukluk vs. diye adlandırdığımız, ancak kendimizde göremediğimiz bu aşamaları fotoğraf karelerine aldığımızda bir ayrım yapabiliyoruz ancak.

Today, Futures Without Violence, in partnership with the Department of Justice, announced the launch of the first national campaign that will raise awareness, teach skills, and inspire public action to address children’s exposure to violence and childhood trauma. The multi-year “Changing Minds” campaign will motivate teachers, coaches, counselors, health professionals, law enforcement officers, and others who regularly interact with children to take meaningful action in supporting children who may be affected.
“Violence is far too prominent in our children’s lives, but it does not have to define their futures,” said former Attorney General Eric H. Holder, Jr. “We can curb the effects of trauma and restore our young people to wholeness and health, giving them the chance they all deserve to pursue their dreams.”

Most of these means of transportation won’t take you a few kilometers from home to work but they’ll do just fine for a stroll in a city park or moving around the office in any case they look unusual and for that alone deserve your attention: so here are the 10 craziest means of transportation. №1 Double- round skate Unlike a conventional skates the double round model allows you to freely manage your feet turn and spin at the heart of the skateboarder two wheels with a diameter of 25 centimeters and a comfortable platform for the feet. No 2: Hoverboard Levitating an inch above the ground the hendo borders for disc straight motors that create a magnetic field repelling the board from the ground or rather from a non ferromagnetic material over which it harbors. No 3: One wheel electric Skateboard The one-wheel skate is a self-balancing unicycle electro mechanical skateboard in simple terms it’s a new toy for adults, boys and girls it reaches speeds of about 19 km/h. No 4: Aeyo Segue started a flood of developments in the field of devices for personal mobility and some designs are quite crazy. Aeyo is a cross between a scooter a bike and a pair of roller skates which falls in the middle of the scale. No 5: Half-Bike Riding a half bike is a combination of running and cycling because you’re in a standing position and so the bike responds better to your body’s movements and turns more agility more fun and the surprise looks of passes by.No 6: Air Bike Aero-X

2009'da TÜBİTAK Bilim ve Teknik Dergisi'ndeki Darwin skandalından (http://www.hurriyet.com.tr/gundem/111...) sonra başlayan evrim tartışmaları ekranlara da yansımıştı. Celal Şengör ise jeoloji profesörü olmasına rağmen ilahiyat öğrencilerinin bilim ve evrim karşıtı (daha doğrusu ezberleyip geldikleri) sorularına ustalıkla cevap vermişti.
Programın başlarında Şengör'ün insanın evrimini anlatma çabalarına rağmen, soru-cevap bölümüne gelindiğinde eğitim sisteminin kurbanı bir neslin Dunning-Kruger sendromundan nasıl nasiplendiğine tanık olduk. Bu kısımdaki genç de konuyla ilgili en ufak bir bilgisi olmamasına rağmen bir bilim insanına kafa tutmak için ezber bellediği soruları kendinden çok emin bir şekilde soruyor ve sorularına tek tek cevap geldikçe daha da hırslanıyor. Konuyu öğrenmek ve anlamak için sormadığı çok açık değil mi? O salonda kulaklarını gerçeklere kapatmış kitlenin toplumun çoğunluğunu oluşturması da bir o kadar acı değil mi? Anlamaya ihtiyaç duymuyoruz, çünkü bize ezberletilenlerin güvenilir alanında olmak rahatlık veriyor. Gerçekleri anlamak içinse ayrı bir efor sarfetmek ve o konforlu alanı aşmak gerekmekte.
