The deep web is the portion of the Internet that is outside standard search methods. A standard search engine finds webpages by bringing up a single page and clicking on all the links. This allows them to extend out from a single page like a giant spider web, finding page after page through linking. This process only captures a fraction of the pages that exist on the Internet; huge...

The Big Decision
The Big Decision
In the words of environmentalist Bill McKibben, Keystone XL represents "a decision point about whether, now that we’re running out of the easy stuff, we’re going to go after the hard stuff."
After more than a century of fueling civilization with fossils, the easy oil -- those places where dead plankton and algae accumulated for millions of years in prehistoric seas, were entombed at just the right pressure and temperature for millions more, then arrived after the tectonic upheavals of multiple geological ages in spots easily accessible by big metal pipes -- is gone. What remains are places like Alberta's tar sands.
"Until five or six years ago, nobody knew tar sands were different than conventional oil drilling," said Grant. "There's been a shift in public engagement and public concern. There are policies indicating that the world is shifting away from higher-carbon oil towards a cleaner-energy economy. There's reason to be hopeful."

What Is Cartoon Physics?
The term "cartoon physics" is used to describe the bending of the basic laws of physics which occurs in most animated cartoons. Animation allows creators a great deal of leeway to play with the laws of physics, and to generate scenes which could not happen in real life. Cartoons also have a set of laws of their own which remain quite consistent across multiple studios, however, suggesting that there...
