One of the leading educational channels on YouTube has added its literary contribution to shelves. Canadians Mitchell Moffit and Gregory Brown, who run the AsapSCIENCE channel on YouTube, have released their first book, AsapSCIENCE: Answers to the World's Weirdest Questions, Most Persistent Rumors, and Unexplained Phenomena.
The book, published by Scribnerm is available on Amazon, where in the first day of its availability, it has already sold plenty of copies. At the time of this post, it is the #1 Biology book on Amazon; on that list, it is an entertaining foil to the AP guidebook in the #2 slot.
The AsapSCIENCE book explores the same sort of questions Moffit and Brown regularly tackle on their YouTube channel. One topic within the book's pages, for example, is the science of hangovers; that has previously been the subject of two separate AsapSCIENCE videos.

Everyone on the Internet is going crazy about #TheDress, which appears white and gold to some people and black and blue to others. How can one ugly dress cause dress cause such a divisive response? Thanks to their knowledge of psychology and perception, the two guys at ASAPScience have provided an answer. Gregory Brown and Mitchell Moffit have shared a video that provides a definitely explanation for all of this dress nonsense.
Brown and Moffit wasted no time preparing a video as soon as #TheDress became the Internet's latest fad. On their YouTube channel, which has more than 3.4 million subscribers, they explain how the difference in opinion results from a psychological phenomenon called "color constancy," which causes our perceptions of specific shades to shift based on the influence of surrounding colors.
Meanwhile, on Twitter, Brown has offered his own thoughts on the dress' color with a hilarious "Uptown Funk"-related tweet:

As it turns out, General Electric's YouTube presence is not limited to silly ads starring Jeff Goldblum. The multinational corporation has teamed up with some Fullscreen partners to show off its latest engineering developments. Most recently, it promoted its innovations in wind power with some help from Mitchell Moffit and Gregory Brown of ASAPScience. ASAPScience's partnership with Ge began with an episode about human energy consumption. In their typical fast-paced manner, Mitch and Greg spouted off a number of facts about the 15 terawatts of energy we use each day (that's 15,000,000,000,000 watts.) By the end of the video, Mitch and Greg arrive on wind power, and they invite viewers to click on an annotation that leads to a separate video set at the Ge Global Research Center in Munich. In that video, Mitch and Greg explore Ge's recent breakthroughs in wind power and ask the question "Is Wind Power Worth It?...

Just in time for our most hallowed of days and after the rash of zombie-like attacks that started this past summer, the guys behind the AsapSCIENCE YouTube channel released this easy to understand video to explain the possibility of a zombie apocalypse being real.
"Dying and coming back from the dead? Not so likely. But a virus that induces zombie-like qualities of rage and the incessant need to eat human flesh, hypothetically? Yes," explains the video. All the virus needs is a simple scientific gateway. "This zombie virus will have to use specific neurons to affect particular parts of the brain to induce zombie state without damaging the entire brain." And those specific pathways are located in the olfactory nerves in your nose. Well, watch the video to learn all about it.
Make sure to let us know in the comments below how you would prepare for this possibility. Maybe...

The 5 Browns did not hint at the scandal that has rocked the family, during the group's concert on Friday - their first performance since their father pled guilty earlier this month to molesting his three daughters. The 5 Browns - a talented piano group made up of siblings Ryan, Melody, Gregory, Deondra and Desirae - kept the crowd of several hundred fans in Beaver Creek, Colo., focused on their remarkable musical prowess and kept their words confined to their music during a public rehearsal, a meet-and-greet with piano students and the live performance Friday night. They took the stage at the...

Gretchen Rossi was in a check-writing mood today. The Real Housewives of Orange County star finally forked over $22,375 in attorneys fees owed to self-described former lover Jay Photoglou. Rossi, 32, appeared in court today, even though she wasn't required to, checkbook in hand, and took care of the bill. The reality TV personality originally was ordered to pay $18,000, but that was upped by an additional $4,000 after she skipped out on several court dates. Rossi's attorney, Gregory Brown, told reporters that she wanted to donate the cash to a children's charity instead of paying the 40-year-old Photoglou, but the offer was declined. "The reason he did not want...

Gretchen Rossi won't be modeling jailhouse jumpsuits anytime soon. The Real Housewives of Orange County star avoided arrest this morning by showing up to court, where she could finally face off against self-described former lover Jay Photoglou, who's suing her for libel and slander. She even brought her checkbook to pay him the nearly $24,000 in fees she owes. But the case involving the 32-year-old reality television personality was extended until Friday after Rossi's attorney requested to put up a bond rather than cut a check because a new development came to light. Lucky girl… Apparently, Photoglou owes nearly $30,000 to the IRS. Rossi's lawyer, Gregory Brown, told...

Quick takes on my ten favorite albums from the first three months of 2010.Anais Mitchell - HadestownA musical for way, way off Broadway, Anais Mitchell’s stunning folk opera succeeds on many levels. It’s a brilliant recasting of the Orpheus and Euridice myth. It’s a pointed political commentary on what may be the downtrodden, cash-strapped America of 1933, or the downtrodden, cash-strapped America of 2010. And it features some wondrous ensemble singing, from Mitchell as Euridice, from Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon as a seductive Orpheus, from Ani Difranco as Persephone, and, most notably, from gruff-voiced folkie Greg Brown, who imbues the...

Australians scientists have found a new way of killing poisonous cane toads by using cat food to attract carnivorous ants. The method was discovered by University of Sydney biology professor Rick Shine and his colleagues Georgia Ward-Fear and Greg Brown, ABC reports. Shine said: "There's been observations for many years that meat ants, these large carnivorous ants, eat lots of baby cane toads down by the water. We wondered how we could make the ants' lives easier and the cane toads' lives harder. "It's not exactly rocket science. We went out and put out a little bit of cat food right beside the area where the baby toads were coming out of the (more)...
