The most complete vertebrate symbiosis ever discovered
Algae live inside the cells of salamanders, in the most intimate symbiotic relationship ever seen involving a vertebrate species. The algae live in developing salamander embyros and might help them grow, researchers say.
The spotted salamander lays its eggs in ponds, where a species of green algae called Oophila amblystomatis, an “egg-loving” unicellular alga, infiltrates the egg capsules.
Endosymbiosis, as this cell-within-a-cell system is called, …

During a design and technical briefing today, BMW revealed the new 6 Series Coupe to journalists for the first time, along with details on how it will differ from the recently revealed 6 Series Convertible.
Naturally, the greatest difference will be the fixed roof which you can plainly see in the pictures, but the 6 Series Coupe has a few more tricks up its sleeve. The Coupe will debut BMW’s first all-LED headlights as well as a new high-end 16-speaker Bang & Olufsen stereo with a fancy center sp…

According to forum user ALewis, the current- and past-generation Chevrolet Impala doesn’t live up to expectations.
Why? Presumably because the Impala of yore was a V-8-powered, two-door 1960s automotive icon that some consider to be one of the most stylish cars ever. After a brief hiatus, it was formally revived in the mid-1990s as a large sedan, and it has stayed a four-door ever since.
ALewis also thinks the limited-run Ford Thunderbird and Pontiac GTO of the last decade aren’t worthy of t…

We can think of many things going wrong during a live TV show, but an SUV backing up straight on a reporter isn’t one them. The indecent happened when ‘10News’ sports director Ben Higgins was reporting live from Tucson, Arizona on the NCAA basketball tournament. Fortunately for Higgins, his cameraman stepped in and stopped the Chevy driver before…

Cyborg Cockroach BackyardBrains
In a prime example of trickle-down cyborg robotics, the remote-controlled rhinoceros beetle created (modified, really) by DARPA may soon be available in a DIY kit, using cockroaches instead of giant beetles. It could help you realize your dream of turning your cockroach friends into remote-controlled errand-roaches.
The kit is made from parts from a HEXBug robot, a little spidery toy ‘bot, plus a few low-power chips that deliver electrical stimulation to a cockroach’s ant…

I know some of our readers will disagree, hell, even some of the folks here at Carscoop will beg to differ, nevertheless, I’m going to say it: I’m utterly disappointed with the styling of Alfa Romeo’s 4C Concept, which is slated to enter production in 2012. Alfa had a unique chance to redefine its design language with its first mainstream…
