A new study found that grocery stores were more accurate in labeling salmon correctly compared to sushi restaurants. A DNA analysis study of salmon samples from grocery stores and sushi restaurants in Seattle, Washington, found that 18 percent were mislabeled. Tracie Delgado and … | Continue reading

Okay my gut feeling was at least agreed to by a bunch of other people: Material Change will not be going onto Transitions, and instead the chamber pop version will be something I do for a later album, named “Misfits,” which I already have so many ideas for. | Continue reading

Researchers unveil the inner mechanisms of the most intricate and complex molecular machine in human biology. Scientists at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) in Barcelona have developed the first comprehensive blueprint of the human spliceosome, the most complex and intrica … | Continue reading

Astrophysicists have developed a method to detect light echoes from black holes, potentially revolutionizing the measurement of their masses and spins. The technique, designed to distinguish faint echo signals from more direct light observations, utilizes advanced simulations and … | Continue reading

Lots of good stuff in this article about how Amazon contracts with companies like Intelcom in Canada to deliver packages then enforces massive delivery quotas on non-union workers. It seems that many think that Canada Post needs to be more competitive by doing similar things like … | Continue reading
