Rhinoceros Beetles (or Rhino beetles) is considered the world's strongest animal and among the largest of beetles. They are capable of lifting up to 850 times their own weight. They are a subfamily (Dynastinae) of beetles in the family of scarab beetles (Scarabaeidae).Rhinoceros beetles are also the strongest animals on the planet, proportionally. They can lift up to 850 times their own weight. To put this into perspective, if a human of average height and weight had the strength of the rhinoceros beetle, it would be able to lift a 65 ton object, for example, an Abrams Tank. Link

Beetle may arrive in India ahead of its schedule in 2009. According to Mr. Joerg Mueller, managing director and president of Volkswagen, the costliest hatchback of India – the Beetle may arrive later this year. If launched as announced, India will be the only country which will witness the launch of the world’s cheapest car Tata Nano and one of the costliest hatch the Beetle. Both have been dubbed as the ‘People‘s Car’ at different times in history. It will be interesting to see how the two fare in the markets when they arrive. India will be creating history with the launch of both the cars together in the same quarter of the year.

Three new species of snouted beetles from the genus Articerodes were discovered in Thai wildlife sanctuaries and a national park. The discovery is being highlighted as evidence or an indicator to the high biodiversity levels of Thailand's tropical forests. From the :Thai News Agency MCOT:New to the world's record of beetle species, the three newly discovered were named Articerodes thailandicus, Articerodes ohmumoi and Articerodes jariyae.The first was named in honour of Thailand, the second recognising a distinguished entomologist from Japan and the third to grant historical honour to Khao Khitchakut, Chanthaburi province—the only habitat to shelter these species of snout beetle.An entomologist at the Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation, Wattana Sukchoowong, r

Feds step up iinvestigation of sensor problemsSome 2003 and 2004 VW new Beetles may have a front crash sensor that could malfunction and compromise the safety of the front air bags, according to federal safety regulators.The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Office of Defect Investigations (ODI) reports that the “frontal crash sensors may malfunction and can reduce the crash sensing ability in frontal crashes” in the new Beetle.ODI has received 5 complaints from consumers about an air bag warning light illumination. VW has also provided federal safety regulators with “early warning data regarding warranty claims and field reports on the crash sensors within the air bag system.”ODI has opened a preliminary evaluation to investigate the air back sensors failures.

How many Ford Model-Ts have you seen on the road, lately? Is it more than the number of Volkswagen Beetles or Toyota Corollas you've seen around town or on the freeway?Personally, I liked to see more Model-Ts. But according to the automotive news web site, Automoportal.com, the Model T and the Corolla have a lot in common. Both are among the top-five best-selling cars in history.Here’s the list of the top-five best-selling cars in history and a comment on each vehicle:

Volkswagen is planning the next generation of the New Beetle including a Roadster version in 2012 despite recent reports that it is planning to end production of the model, Germany's Auto-motor-sport magazine reports. The New Beetle, a retro-style version of the original Beetle "people's car" that was last produced in Germany in 1978, has been criticised as too expensive and lacking appeal. A

One of the things that has concerned me for a while is the fact that very little of my work is easily classifiable. It certainly isn’t mainstream, but neither does it fit neatly into the big genres of, say, science fiction or crime fiction or even romantic fiction. My wife – lovely woman – suggested my work was slipstream fiction. It sounds cooler than cross-genre and not as pompous as fabulation.It's becoming more and more popular in music: fusion, cross-over artists. I suppose they have a similar problem, if it's not this and it's not that then what is it?The term slipstream (something of a play on mainstream) was coined by cyberpunk (Now would that be a sub-genre?) author Bruce Sterling in an article originally published in SF Eye in July 1989. He wrote: "...this is a kind of writing which simply makes you feel very strange; the way that living in the twentieth century makes you feel, if you are a person of a certain sensibility." The complete article is available here.I li

Way at the bottom of the "Beetle Juice" page at IMDB, in the user comments, someone intelligently and eloquently wrote that Beetle Juice is the kind of movie that we don't get to see anymore -- "pure art packaged to simultaneously look and play like accessible mainstream motion pictures."What genius! I agree wholeheartedly with the comment's author, as the more I watch "Beetle Juice," the more I see. My childhood viewings of the film were able to just scratch the surface of the layers of information poured into this movie. And at every layer, even the most superficial, it's supremely enjoyable. Whoever commented on it at IMDB made me realize this when he/she wrote that the movie "is superficially a haunted-house comedy, superficially a movie that would appeal to children, superficially a supernatural fantasy. But what it really is, like David Byrne's 'True Stories,' is a modern art piece set to film."I love that! Some movies are exactly what they seem to be, and you can abso

No, not the movie, nor avid music fans. This is about yet anothermethod of delivering illegal drugs. After reporting about 10 daysago about a Mr. Potato Head being used as a drug mule in Australia, our good friends the Dutch came across an evenmore unusual drug mule method. Customs officials, whileexamining a package from Peru, were shocked to discover 100 dead beetles inside, all stuffed with cocaine. In all, therewere 300 grams of the white powder, with a street value of about$11,000 dollars. Dutch officials, who have probably seen it all ina country where soft drugs are legal, admitted that it was "a verystriking method of smuggling. Well, I guess until the drunk blindEstonian driving man of past posts pops up again ( and I really believe it is only a matter of time!), I will just have to be on thelookout for more astounding drug mule ideas. How about insidesome ravioli or other stuffed pastas, it would make marijuanabrownies look tame!

I'm getting so far behind on posting my photos that I thought I would just stick some recent ones in a slide show without trying to identify them. If you know what they are, please let us know.Just a few explanations:The frog was found inside the house. It does not have hairy feet; it has sticky feet and apparently it was jumping around picking up Chloe's dog hair off the floor. The small lizard and the stick bug were also inside the house. The others were found outside.The long-horned beetle has me really worried. I did a little research and found this beetle on a Central American site which showed how it chops down trees! I didn't know that when I took the photo. Maybe that explains why we have had 6 or 7 very tall trees just fall down for no apparent reason.Hundreds of dying wasps were found on the front steps one morning. I looked up at the roof line but didn't see a nest. We don't spray so I don't know what was killing them.Blog contents copyright © 2006-2007 La Gringa. Al

The mountain pine beetle infestations throughout North America have become a major concern for forestry management. How such a small beetle can destroy so much of the forest is rather amazing and concerning. Forestry Management teams throughout North America are working on strategies to get the upper hand on the mountain pine beetle infestations. Pine beetle outbreaks date back several decades but it is only in the past the ten years that we have seen them devastate many forests. Both government and private teams have been strategically working towards solutions to reduce or eliminate the mountain pine beetle.Surveying the forests is a strategic starting point in controlling these pesky little beetles. Surveying provides forest management with detailed information in a useable format outlining where the beetles exist, where the infestations are critical, and the path the mountain pine beetles have taken to move through the forest. It provides a useful tool for prediction of infestation

Ted Kord, Blue Beetle 2First appearance: Captain Atom #83, November 1966. He was the second superhero to take this role after the first Beetle, Dan Garrett. In Crisis on Infinite Earths in 1985-86, he and some of the other Charlton characters were merged more fully with the DCU.Current status: deadWas subjected to the following act of discrimination: in 2005’s “Countdown to Infinite Crisis”, he was targeted for death by an otherwise out-of-character Max Lord, the businessman who’d sponsored Justice League International years before.What’s wrong with how this was done? Plenty! The whole story, co-written by Geoff Johns, Judd Winick and Greg Rucka, was done as part of an editorial mandate, but then those three writers themselves seem to be part of the inner party, which could explain why they’ve gone along in lock-step with almost everything DC Comics has done. Aside from that, there’s also the story, which depicts Ted, instead of trying to fight back boldly against his pur

The Titanus giganteus or as some people call it the titaneus giganteus is the worlds largest beetle in the world and to tell you the truth is giving me the creeps even writing about it, the Titanus giganteus a coleopter cerambicide is scary at that size and would even scare Chuck Norris, male species can get up to 15 centimeters and some have been known to reach a staggering 20 centimeters. Believe it or now but a copy of Titanus giganteus could cost a collector more than $2500 which is not bad really considering these big beggers are hard to catch or find.

The spotted Cucumber Beetle is a common beetle found in the home garden. It has a black head and antennae with a yellow-green colored body. It has twelve dark spots on the top and three pairs of short legs. One common name is the southern corn rootworm because in the larvae stage it feeds on the roots of plants.Spotted Cucumber Beetles migrate from the south to Illinois. They attack edible plants as well as ornamental flowers and cause seedling damage and later attack full grown plants. It is believed that as these beetles feed or crops and ornamentals that they spread bacterial wilt and mosaic, two serious plant diseases.There is also a related Stripped Cucumber Beetle but I've not seen it in my garden or around Chicago. The stripped beetle can overwinter in the ground unlike the spotted one that migrates here and can produce several generations in one growing season. I've noticed that this beetle is aware of it's surroundings and will drop to the ground and hide in the soil or amo

The MLB All-Star Game caught my attention for baseball again, so I’ve been casually reading baseball-related stories on the Internet. It turns out that baseball could be facing a small problem — ash trees, used to make baseball bats, might be going exctinct. Happily, the government has an absolutely terrifying possible solution, according to the NYT. As early as this summer, federal officials hope to set loose Asian wasps never seen in this country with the purpose of attacking the emerald ash borer, an Asian beetle accused of killing 25 million ash trees in Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Maryland since it was spotted in the United States five years ago. At first, I thought it said “assassin wasps,” but then I realized that it means assassin wasps. They’re being brought in specifically to kill. So I’m thinking, once they’ve killed the beetles, what do we do with all the wasps? And the answer is, we train them to become math teachers and

Dave Neads writes from knowledge and experience about the forestry industry in BC. After hoping it would go away or some miracle cure would appear, the reality of the pine beetle aftermath is beginning to set in. This is going to require a deep, cultural change from those of us in affected areas, whether we are involved with forestry or not. Dave's article provides a welcome perspective. (The photo is mine - taken today in my backyard).LET'S JUST FIX IT"Why can't they just fix it, spray the trees or something?" This question came from a European traveler visiting the Chilcotin Cariboo, but it may have just as easily been posed by someone from the lower mainland or even from Williams Lake.Even though this person had driven from Williams Lake to Anahim Lake, had done a flightsee over the West Chilcotin, had spent a lot of time on back roads, and had seen the size and extent of the beetle kill, the scale of the problem was still incomprehensible. The question still came "Why can't

This curious concept brings an altogether new meaning to the phrase ‘take a seat’ as this is, quite literally, what this concept will enable you to do as this portable chair has been designed to be carried on your back, very much like a backpack, thus enabling you to sit down in comfort wherever you so please. One slight problem with the design is that if you are in need of a portable chair then you probably want to carry more than just a chair. With this contraption attached to you back, however, you’ll have to forgo your standard backpack as the chair attached to your back will force you into the realms of hand luggage alone – thus severely impacting either on your mobility or your load carrying capacity. Still, it’s nice to know that, having trekked half way up a mountain looking like a giant beetle you can sit in comfort whilst contemplating whether it might have been a somewhat more sensible idea to have brought your backpack instead so that you wouldn’t have had to

Bloomington, Indiana - The function of horned beetles' wild protrusions has been a matter of some consternation for biologists. Digging seemed plausible; combat and mate selection, more likely. Even Charles Darwin* once weighed in on the matter, suggesting - one imagines with some frustration - the horns were merely ornamental.In this month's American Naturalist (December 2006) and the November 2006 issue of Evolution, Indiana University Bloomington scientists present an entirely new function for the horns: during their development, Onthophagus horned beetles use their young horns as a sort of can opener, helping them bust out of thick larval shells.The finding will surprise anyone who assumed hornless Onthophagus adults (usually the females) never form the horns in the first place. They do, the scientists say, but the nubile horn tissue is reabsorbed before the beetles' emergence as adults.'The formation of horns by beetle pupas that soon lose them just doesn't seem to make sense
