Friday links

| May 2, 2008

Well, its the end of yet another exciting week of life – here are some of the more interesting things I’ve found to amuse myself with on the web this week. Clinton or Obama: decision tree – a pretty neat graphic CNN has a story up on how genetic information from Africa tells us that [...]

big science news

| February 3, 2008

/em watches for armageddon. People are f-reak-ing-out. Hell, even the tagline is a freak-out. What’s he talking about you say? Scientist’s now say they can create sperm from female bone marrow. Just in time for the finale of Y-The Last Man! Perfect! More links, lest you think I’m crazy(or more so): 1 2 3 4 [...]

I came across (what I think are) two pretty important updates in two of the battles making the rounds in our current (US) political arena: Stem-cell research & birth control. The first, is that some scientists (vague I know, I have the memory of dead elk) have come up with a way to harvest stem [...]

bacteria-tron!

| August 24, 2006

The world gets weirder and weirder. Or maybe the weird gets simpler and simpler. Either way, bacteria is/are fucking bizarre. Check out this iteration of Loom for some really fascinating info about bacteria that, in additioning being able to merge into a super-bacteria-borg-beast (not the technical term I’m sure), shed some light on the concepts [...]
