About the exercise toy for rodents the Australian television satirical comedy series The Hamster Wheel Cleanup date January 2009 File Phodopus sungorus Hamsterkraftwerk.jpg thumb Like other rodent s, hamster s are highly motivated to run in wheels. Hamster wheels are exercise toys used by hamsters and other rodents . Most of these toys are composed of a runged wheel held on a stand by a pair of stub axles. Hamster wheels allow rodents to run even when their space is confined. The earliest dated use of the term hamster wheel , located by the Oxford English Dictionary , is in a 1949 newspaper advertisement. ref Los Angeles Times , 9 Oct. 1949, p. B20 4 advt. , referenced in Oxford English Dictionary , Draft Additions, Sep. 2007, under entry Hamster. ref Most wheels are constructed of steel or plastic , both with advantages and problems. Solid plastic wheels are safer for some types of pets, such as hamsters and hedgehogs, because the space between rungs is solid and the animal s feet or legs cannot get stuck between rungs, an injury risk in steel wheels. However, some rodents such as gerbils will quickly chew on and destroy plastic wheels, but not steel wheels. Choice tests with Syrian hamster s Mesocricetus auratus have shown that they prefer larger wheels the animals chose a wheel diameter of 35 cm 14 in over 23 cm 9 in , which itself was preferred over 17.5 cm 7 in . ref Reebs, S.G. and St Onge, P., 2005, Running wheel choice by Syrian hamsters, Laboratory Animals 39 442 451 Mrosovsky, N., Salmon, P.A. and Vrang, N., 1998, Revolutionary science ... is not a natural position for a running hamster, and if a wheel is so small that the animal must arch ... rhythms research.

In it, several seemingly unconnected and nonsensical events come together to make perfect clarity at the end these include time travel and an attempted alien invasion vaguely orchestrated by Hitler . The plot centers around the aptly named Russell Nice, stuck in a dead end job at a movie prop selling business, discovering holographic equipment from the future that allows the holder to create life like hologram s of any movie star they want. Eventually he becomes entangled in a mass of deceit, lies, and betrayal, all of which centers around a demon god with an insect face, and Hitler, who is stuck in the present time with his SS bodyguards, intending to make a film that will influence the world to follow Hitler and his ideals. During his time travel, Russell discovers that the creature has disposed of traditional heroes Jim Pooley and John Omally before its attack they would normally defend Brentford from the threat the creature posed, but as it exists outside the natural order it is able to destroy them before they can take action against it. Finding himself unable to simply destroy the film or prevent it being made, Russell decides to use the time travel belts that Hitler s forces had acquired to establish himself as a major film producer in the present, thus ensuring that he will be the one that Hitler s men bring the film to, allowing him to destroy it before it is released.

orphan date March 2009 The hamster zona free ovum test HZFO test , or hamster test is a method for diagnosing male infertility due to the inability of the spermatozoon sperm to penetrate the ova. This test has limited value for most people experiencing infertility. In this test, sperm are incubated with several hamster eggs. After seven to twenty hours, the number of sperm penetrations per egg is measured. The hamster eggs have had the zona pellucida , the outer membrane, removed hence, zona free . Having all eggs penetrated by multiple sperm is considered to be a positive sign for fertility. Results suggest that men whose sperm fail the hamster test are a third as fertile than those whose sperm pass. ref cite journal author Koulischer L, Debry JM title The hamster test.
