Waggle dance is a term used in beekeeping and ethology for a particular figure-eight dance of the honeybee. While the round dance is performed for food sources close to the colony (less than 50-80 m), the waggle dance is used for more distant floral sites.

Two components of the waggle dance are known to convey information to other bees

a straight run — the direction of which conveys information about the direction of the food
the speed at which the dance is repeated which indicates how far away the food is
Upon return to the beehive, a forager bee is able to convey the direction of the food source according to the angle of the waggle run on the vertical surface. For instance, if the bee waggles directly up the surface, then the food source is directly toward the sun. If the bee waggles directly down the surface, then the food source is directly away from the sun. If the food source was located 90 degrees to the right of the sun, the bee would waggle 90 degrees to the right. The polarized vision of bees allows them to make out the location of the sun in patches of blue sky even if the sun itself is hidden behind the clouds.

Amazingly, waggle dancing bees that have been in the hive for a period, time adjust the angle of the dance to the angle of the progressing sun. Therefore bees that follow the straight run of the waggle dance are still correctly led to the food source even though its relative angle to the sun has changed.

How much ox. does the earth have?? normal our atmosphere is 20.9% ,1.1 % green house gases and78%N.
The normal unknown is that N. radiated with alpha particles changes to OX.
That says that 20.9 + 78 = 98.9% could be ox

You can use a camera as a stun gun (cut the cables to the flash and then press the charge button).
