Round the Reader - Science and Beyond Edition...


 


Happy Thursday!!

I catch myself doing more and more science stories, which is cool. Funny thing is, I am a biologist and I don't post many biology stories, hmmmm. Anyway, today let's start with a couple biology stories...



The long thought extinct Ivory-billed woodpecker seen? Wow.


Put on those Mosquito repellents.

Remember the exploding toads story? I blamed it on German beer. Well, it turns out I was wrong. Blame it on the crows.

I love this headline: Zebra Gives Birth to Foal Sired by Donkey. Is it a Zonkey or Deebra? Ha. Those crazy AP reporters.

Deep Impact getting close.

Space-rated Nanotechnology. Cool.

And in the beyond category...

Mac news: What will not work with Tiger?

Is Tiger better than XP? Well, duh!! Example? Sure, Safari first browser to pass Acid2 test. Ha.

One more Tiger story. Apple sued by Tiger Direct for use of Tiger. Grrrrrr. The money quote, "If the court grants Tiger Direct's request for an injunction, Apple's rollout of Tiger could be stopped."

Russia selling missiles to Syria. Not good that. This either, Iran issues a new nuclear warning. Fine, we are selling bunker busters to Israel. Take that.

In other middle east news, Abbas threatens force against militants terrorists. One can hope.

Happy birthday murderer.

Houston bans offensive odor in libraries. Okay.

Got a body you need to get rid of? Just feed it to some lions. No, really.

Google to rank the credibility of the news?

So be it, indeed.

Heh and WTF.

YES! Go DEI, Go!

Update: Breaking snooker news. Wow.
