Eyeball Floaters Explained
Almost everyone sees a few floaters at one time or another. They can occur more frequently and become more noticeable as you grow older. Hank Green of SciShow explains the cause of these specks or squiggles that sometimes appear in our field of vision.
Sometimes our eyes do weird things. One of the things that it sometimes does is get floaters. What are they? Where do they come from?
Which battery lasts the longest? According to this video regular Duracell batteries are your best choice.
We put the major battery brands to the test to find out which battery will give you the most bang for your buck!
Our testing process was fairly simple but effective. We used the exact same brand of flashlight (Maglite Xenon) all straight from the box. Each pair of batteries tested came from different stores around the Portland, OR area. Set 1 came from Fred Meyer, set 2 from Target and set 3 from Safeway. We did this to make sure we used different shipments and manufacturing dates from the battery companies.
While the procedure was not necessarily scientific, it gives you an indication of what you might expect when purchasing not only batteries, but any product on the market today. It’s always good to do your own research and make purchases based on what you find to work over a long period of time.
The oddest result was with the Energizer 9x Ultimate. It did not perform as expected. After some research we found that this particular battery is mainly intended to be used in high-draw electronics such as digital cameras. However, the marketing on the box says it is GREAT for flashlights. Go figure…

There was once an Irish actor who did Shakespearean plays, but had aged and could no longer remember his lines! After many years, he finds himself in the Halifax Theater in Canada, where they are prepared to give him a chance to shine again.
The director says “This is the most important part, and it has only one line. You walk on to the stage carrying a rose. You hold the rose to your nose with just one finger and thumb, sniff the rose deeply and then say the line: The Irish actor is thrilled. All day long before the play he was practicing his line over and over again. Finally, the time came. The curtain went up, the actor walked onto the stage, and using just one finger he delivered the line: The theater erupted, the audience was screaming with laughter and the director was steaming! “You bloody fool!” he cried “You have ruined me!” The Irish actor was bewildered: “What happened, did I forget my line? “No!” screamed the director. “You forgot the rose!” |
