Questions and Answers

How Cyclone Debbie got her name

Sydney - ArabToday

The huge storm that tore through parts of northeastern Australia this week was almost called Caleb instead of Debbie. The next one will be named Ernie. Debbie started life as a tropical low off Queensland state, but formed into a cyclone just after Caleb -- another weather system brewing off Western Australia -- fizzled out. The process of chosing a

Will March snow ruin Washington's cherry blossoms?

Washington - AFP

As the northeastern United States braces for the biggest snowstorm of the winter, officials in Washington had other concerns -- the fate of the city's prized cherry blossoms, which draw hordes of tourists every year. "There is no risk for the trees themselves. They've seen snow, cold temperatures, wind," National Park Service (NPS) spokesman Mike Litterst told AFP on Monday.

Is Arctic sea ice doomed to disappear?

Paris - AFP

There's good and bad news for people, and polar bears, threatened by the Arctic's vanishing sea ice, scientists said Monday. First the good news: summer ice cover is "virtually certain" to survive if average global warming does not rise more than 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit) above pre-industrial era levels, according to a study published in the journal Nature

Why online retail growth in the UAE is different than in the rest of the world

Dubai - ArabToday

In the long run the global formula for online retail success might be notably different from the one that will prevail in the GCC countries – and especially in the UAE. The growth of e-commerce is not likely to challenge shopping malls in the UAE, but rather complement it, which may be beneficial for consumers and retail operators in the

One income for all: far-fetched, or future fact with technology-driven changes?

Paris - AFP

It is a utopian idea, literally, but is enjoying a renaissance as politicians and policy wonks grapple with technology-driven changes that could redefine our very understanding of work. If robots and machine intelligence threaten to render many white-collar jobs obsolete, then what will people do for money? Enter the concept of a "universal basic income", a flat sum paid to

Sex and marriage with robots: science fiction or new reality?

London - AFP

Sex with robots is "just around the corner", an expert told a global conference in London this week featuring interactive sex toys and discussions on the ethics of relationships with humanoids. "Sexbots" are a staple of science fiction -- the idea of robots as sex partners is explored, for instance, in recent films and television series like "Ex-Machina" and "Westworld."

Did T-rex wake up to birdsong just like we do, though it was probably?

Paris - AFP

Tyrannosaurus-rex and other dinosaurs woke up to birdsong just like we do, though it was probably more honk than melodic chirping, an extraordinary fossil find revealed Wednesday. The discovery in Antarctica of the oldest known avian voice box -- called a syrinx -- proved that birds crisscrossed Late Cretaceous skies some 68 million years ago, during the final act of

Paris climate deal: Where are we now India's ratification of the Paris climate agreement?

New Delhi - AFP

India's ratification of the Paris climate agreement on Sunday brings the ambitious global warming deal a big step closer to coming into effect. The accord, sealed last December in the French capital, is aimed at keeping global warming below two degrees celsius compared with pre-industrial levels. To come into force the deal must be ratified by at least 55 countries

Your dog can make you feel better, and here’s why

Washington - Arab Today

Wayne Pacelle has a demanding job as president and chief executive of the Humane Society of the United States. This is one of the reasons he brings Lily, his beagle mix, to work with him. He is convinced that animals “are a necessary ingredient in our emotional well-being,’’ he says. “I deal with many stressful issues, and I see terrible

Bird brain? Study shows avian brains packed with neurons

Washington - AFP

Scientists have long been baffled by the smarts displayed by some birds with tiny brains. But a new explanation may turn the term "bird brain" on its head: Birds have more densely packed neurons in their brains than other animals, contributing to cognitive ability on par with that of primates, researchers said on Monday. A macaw's brain may be the

Is it just tiredness or something more sinister?

London - Arab Today

When you’re ill all you want is to feel better — but that often depends on getting a diagnosis. And with serious diseases, how quickly you get that diagnosis can make all the difference. Earlier this month NHS England announced a £15 million plan to speed up the diagnosis time for cancer. The time it takes to spot any illness

Will US secrecy laws boost the death penalty?

Washington - AFP

America stands alone among Western nations for its use of the death penalty, but the number of prisoners it executes has slowed to a trickle in recent years -- partly due to a lack of drugs. Death sentences carried out by lethal injection have fallen dramatically since a European export ban stopped pharmaceutical companies that produce the drugs from sending

Online teaching -- fad or future?

Beijing - XINHUA

Underpaid teachers, uneven distribution of resources, and high fees. These predicaments have plagued China's education system for decades. However, with the emergence of online courses, they may be a thing of the past. CURE-ALL Tech-savvy teachers are making a fortune without stepping out of their homes. Chinese writing teacher Xie Mingbo recently quit his job as a classroom teacher to
