It is possible to do cornea transplants, but that's it. It is also unlikely that the parents would have to donate these corneas, as they come from deceased donors. Since a cornea transplant is one of the most common transplant procedures (~100,000 a year), it is unlikely that the parents would have to donate their own corneas for the procedure (even if they were allowed to).

Mmmm, no, that page is about ALL ants. Different species have different colony sizes, that's why the range is so big. This type of ant has a relatively small colony size. The post is correct. But really, it doesn't matter if it's hundreds, thousands, or millions, I'd rather see exactly zero of these in my lifetime.

"Bull ant colonies are relatively small, with numbers of individuals in the low hundreds rather than thousands like many other ant species."

Have you seen the glass of water and index card trick? If not, check it out:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnpPiuv4c2U
.
Now, do that with one glass, and then fill a second glass normally (right side up). Stack the two (with the index card in between). Then slide the card out! Bam! Science!

It is old, but seems accurate (although brief). The school did later say that the student did not "tell deputies the truth about what happened ... and ... refused to cooperate" and that this led to the suspension. Full story:

1. Go to https://www.youtube.com/account_playback and sign in
2. Uncheck "Show annotations, channel promotions and interactive cards on videos"
3. Profit!
(Of course, sometimes annotations are helpful, so you'll lose those too!)
.
You can use the "gear" button on an individual video to turn ON annotations for that video. If, for example, there is a "click here" to go to another video, and you want to click it.

Size comparison of North America to Jupiter 11 comments

I think it is. The spot next to it is Jupiter's "Great Red Spot" which is said to be the size of three Earths across. Comparing that spot to the size of North America on this image, it seems pretty close.

Fix this in 60 seconds if you use Chrome:
1) Install extension: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/smartvideo-for-youtube/lnkdbjbjpnpjeciipoaflmpcddinpjjp?hl=en
2) Go to its settings and check "Ensure that videos are buffered even if they are paused" for both videos on YouTube itself and embedded videos (like this: http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8521871/hosted/funsubstance/youtube.png )
Problem solved! Just leave it paused and it will buffer the whole thing every time.
