My kid wants to know: if a ladybug fell all the way down from the top of the Empire State Building, would it die upon impact? (Assume the insect did not attempt to fly.) | Doubtful. A ladybug's terminal velocity (the maximum speed it can fall at) is probably pretty darn slow (less than 30 mph) because it is very light and has a decent surface area. (Ratio of surface area/weight is important in determining terminal velocity.) Imagine if you threw a ladybug right at the ground. It probably wouldn't die. And you'd be throwing it at or near its terminal velocity. So, the greater height (Empire State Building) would not increase this speed. Thus, it could survive the fall. |

'He will not give up, I'm sure of that. I can see it. I believe it.' In an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport, he added: 'I speak to him. I know he can hear me. 'His doctors have told us this is already a miracle, no-one has ever survived such a serious accident. But Jules won't give up. 'His trainer Andrea (Ferrari) says if there is one person who can make it happen, with his will, it's Jules.' Following an investigation into the cause of the crash, FIA race director Charlie Whiting concluded there was 'a perfect storm' of conditions. With heavy rain falling and the light fading, Bianchi smashed into the back of a recovery vehicle that at the time was removing the Sauber of Adrian Sutil who had spun off the Suzuka circuit and into a tyre barrier one lap previously.

What finance-related acts are forbidden by the Quran? | Belief is a fundamental aspect of morality in the Quran, and scholars have tried to determine the semantic contents of "belief" and "believer" in the Quran. The ethico-legal concepts and exhortations dealing with righteous conduct are linked to a profound awareness of God, thereby emphasizing the importance of faith, accountability, and the belief in each human's ultimate encounter with God. People are invited to perform acts of charity, especially for the needy. Believers who "spend of their wealth by night and by day, in secret and in public" are promised that they "shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve". It also affirms family life by legislating on matters of marriage, divorce, and inheritance. A number of practices, such as usury and gambling, are prohibited. The Quran is one of the fundamental sources of Islamic law (sharia). Some formal religious practices receive significant attention in the Quran including the formal prayers (salat) and fasting in the month of Ramadan. As for the manner in which the prayer is to be conducted, the Quran refers to prostration. The term for charity, zakat, literally means purification. Charity, according to the Quran, is a means of self-purification. |

Animals which produce sought-after kopi kuwak kept in appalling conditions .
Footage shows them with infections and going 'insane' from boredom .
Beans are sold in Harrods and can fetch more than £300 a kilo . | By . Daily Mail Reporter . PUBLISHED: . 04:29 EST, 21 September 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 08:09 EST, 21 September 2013 . Confined to tiny, filthy cages and suffering from skin infections, this is how farmers are treating Asian civet cats which produce one of the most expensive coffees in the world. The shocking conditions were discovered by animal investigators on farms in Indonesia and the Philippines which produce the much sought-after kopi kuwak, sold in Harrods and which can cost up to £60 a cup in some restaurants. Locals pick the ‘coffee beans’ from the faeces the cats which eat the ripe coffee berries as part of their diet. Once they are cleaned they are roasted. The coffee they produce is described as filled with a deep, mellow flavour, not acidic, with a ‘unique, soft, sweet taste’. However, undercover video footage shows civets . exhibiting neurotic behaviour such as incessant pacing, spinning and . head-bobbing – indications that the wild-caught animals are going insane . from boredom and depression. Scroll down for video . Caged: A civet cat on a farm in Indonesia. An investigation found the animals, which produce the sought-after kopi kuwak coffee, suffer in appalling conditions . Distressed: Investigators from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals found cats injured, pacing and showing signs of depression . Frightened: The coffee beans are produced from the civet cats' excrement and can cost up to £60 a cup . Cramped: The coffee has become popular among the rich and famous - but these pictures shine new light on how the expensive delicacy is produced . One farmer explained civets are . generally kept caged for around three years. Another farmer compared . civets eating too many coffee berries to humans smoking, as the civets' health deteriorates greatly during captivity because of a lack of . vitamins and nutrition. Despite the battery farm conditions, many farms sell the product as 'wild', sourced in the jungle from the droppings of free-roaming animals. Tony Wild, former coffee trader and author of 'Coffee: A Dark History', told the BBC: 'The whole reason everybody regurgitates that story is that by being incredibly rare, you can keep a ridiculously high price.' The coffee has surged in popularity, especially in the U.S. and Japan after featuring on the Oprah Winfrey Show and the film, The Bucket List. In a separate investigation by the BBC, it was found one of the most popular products called Wahana Luwak, which is supplied to Harrods, was being produced by a company, Sari Makmur, which uses caged civets. Trapped: The animals are fed vast amounts of berries, which help produce the rich and distinctive flavour of the beans . Dark secret: The final product is often sold as 'wild' - but these images prove the cats are anything but free-range . Confined: Cats are kept in tiny cages for most of the day . Workers said some civets were kept enclosed, despite initial denials from the company, which later backed down and admitted it DID use cages. However, it said the product supplied to Harrods came only from free-range animals and animals were put inside only to study their behaviour. The comapny said in a statement: 'In our caged civet cats programme, we study the animal behaviour, diet and its breeding behaviour. 'In order to sustain or meet the demand for this market, we breed our own civet cats and then release them in our farm when they are mature enough. 'We do not sell any of the coffee beans from the caged luwak as it is against our business model.' Let me out: Industry experts are convinced non-wild civet coffee has ended up on the London market . Money spinner: Harrods is among the shops to sell the delicacy in London but it insists its product is entirely ethical . No hope: This cat looks particularly unhappy as it peers into the camera lens of an animal cruelty investigator . There is no suggestion of animal cruelty on the company's estate. Harrods said: 'Harrods works closely with all its suppliers to ensure the highest standards of ethical sourcing, production and trade are maintained. This is carried out through strict auditing procedures. 'Our exclusive supplier… has given Harrods every assurance the coffee we are provided with is organic, and comes from wild palm civets.' Shop: Harrods said it was confident in its suppliers. The up-market shop sells the beans which can fetch more than £300 a kilo . PETA UK Associate Director Mimi Bekhechi said farms which do enclosed civets were cruel. 'Confining civet cats for years – as they go mad and lose their fur from the stress – for an expensive coffee would turn the stomach of any compassionate person.' In the wild, civets frequently climb trees to reach the ripe coffee berries, but in captivity, they are fed more of the fruit than would ever be natural for them. |
