The Insect News Network #16 - Friday 7/11/12 - Beetles 1 - Top 5, The Beatles, The VW Beetle & Biomimicry

What do Budweiser, James Cameron, and Dancing with the Stars have in Common? I tell about the random connections with people who have dialed in on the INN. After Top 5 Hexapod headlines about beetles, I dive into the evolution of The Fab Four (how they chose there name), the crazy connection between Hitler and the Volkswagon Beetle, and other amazing design concepts that have been inspired by insects. I also talk about the LITTLEST bettle, the Featherwings, which so small they live on lice eggs.

Here's some classical love!

Dr. Paul always sends, via the airwaves, the love he has for classical music. Join him today as he plays some of his most beloved recordings gleaned from a lifetime of listening joy. Of course, the show would have to be infinitely long to play all the classical music that Dr. Paul thinks has the stamp of superior quality and immortality. Dr. Paul prefers pieces of classic virtuosity, with an ear for beautiful, singable melodies that get under his skin. He thinks you will find the music today some of the best recorded. But, never forget, that Dr. Paul plays nothing that he doesn't love. Check out the playlist at http://kdrt.org/node/9793, and see if you can resist a listen! Image courtesy of Nevit Dilman
