Truth to be told, not all of us can afford to buy Organic all the time!

Scientists, like me, complain continuously about insufficient funding for research. We spend an ever larger chunk of our time writing applications to fund our science, lobbying politicians to increase budgets and defending scientific activities from cuts. Yet never in the…

60 Days Beyond The Wall: Part 4
This is the fourth part in a multipart series. If you haven’t yet, check out Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3. I’ll reference things from those posts. If that seems daunting, feel free to just read this — it should stand alone.
The cliche is that those who do not know history are doomed to repeat it. If only. If it were so, the best possible strategy for social change would be to make sure that nobody knew about the Civil Rights Movement or the history of labor struggle in…
In geometric harmony of the cosmos there are ways that resemble, there are universal patterns, from a human eye…
Ever wish that those sci-fi movie scenes of magically transporting objects or yourself from one place to another would come true?
Conventional physics requires that 26 fundamental parameters be put into the “standard model” of particle physics by hand.
Conventional physics has not been able to resolve the vacuum energy density crisis (120 orders of magnitude difference between quantum theory…
Be inspired by the real miracles of life. Here are just a few:
I had the honour of being invited back to my high school a couple of weeks ago to describe some of my experiences at the cross-section of finance and STEM (as it’s now come to be called) and answer some great…

Will we some day completely understand the nature?
Science aims to explain the natural world. Thanks to long-standing endeavor of science, we have known a lot, but a lot to know.
Laurie, Breann, and Brandon kindly came to class to help guide our projects. We presented our idea and got a lot…
John R. Christie, a climate scientists who has studied “the problem” for over 50+ years has offered several DEFINITIVE testimonies before congress. Here is just one of them:
Everything we write feels like science fiction.
Today, we worked on the connections between the major parts of our project we hope to entice campers to engage with: camp, puzzle, Citizen Science, and a community organization in Pittsburgh. Next, we talked a little about how to engage 11–13 year olds with our puzzle. For the final half…
James, thanks for sharing. A valuable piece of information and certainly worth taking stock of. However I think there’s room for comment in this piece on the impact of environment on alteration of genetic expression– epigenetics.
The output is influenced by the genetic makeup of the individual, the current mindset, beliefs…
Admittedly, I’m more into astronomy than design, but I certainly appreciate the illustration you’ve made. It’s fantastic!
A very promising breakthrough has been observed by Kumamoto University researchers who…
Hello, and welcome to O-Fish-ial Fun Fact Thursday.
Today we’ll be looking at the Bluestreak Cleaner Wrasse, or for fancy people, Labroides dimidiatus.
You’d think that being up in space would give you an automatic advantage, but it doesn’t. That’s very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
To me it feels strange, that an author writes a story to be seen by others but is too weak to show responses from this audience…
Unfortunately I disagree with most of things you said. An individual cannot create things more intelligent than itself ? I believe it depends on what you mean by intelligence. IBM Watson beats humans in Jeopardy, Alpha Go beats humans in go, and even a calculator beats humans in…
If only we could safely implement that speed technology into our public transportation systems.
I was unaware that we were eating up other galactic neighbors. Fascinating.
Wow…such an in-depth and incredibly response from such a simple question. Thanks for sharing.

The universe is so stunningly beautiful. Thanks for sharing these photos.
Agilent Technologies Inc. and Lasergen, Inc. have signed a definitive agreement for Agilent to acquire the remaining shares of Lasergen, an emerging biotechnology company focused on research and development of innovative technologies for DNA sequencing…
Great article! This is truly remarkable information, and I’m eager to see the future.
I’m excited about the power and potential of this telescope. Thanks for sharing!
Eager to see how it can further improve our knowledge of space. Thanks for sharing.
