Reader blogs
Hi science bloggers - If you can spare 10-12 minutes, would you take my survey about the needs and habits of science bloggers? If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Thank you.
Most people believe that university is the cradle of science and technology. A lot of new universities have names like:
"University of Science and Technology"
Some Thoughts on the composition of the Universe

The Lupus Foundation of America (LFA) joined more than 11,000 rheumatologists and allied health professionals at the American College of Rheumatology's (ACR) 2009 Annual Scientific Meeting in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in mid-October. The program included more than 260 abstracts, plenary or special session presentations specifically about lupus.

The latest Science Shelf Newsletter is now online. It includes plenty of interesting titles, plus one I review negatively.
Resolution of the galaxy rotation problem by redshift in cosmic dust allows cosmology to proceed by Newtonian mechanics without the need for dark matter or Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND).
Optical fiber is well-known for its ability to carry information at high speeds over long distances. Twenty years after the first transatlantic fiber optic cable was laid, these strands of ultrapure glass continue to offer unrivaled bandwidths. They have evolved a long way from the first low-loss fiber demonstrated in the late 1960s.
Well if your like me you live to be outside and just enjoy the outdoors. Well when I was young I enjoyed climbing trees and now that I'm older I still enjoy climbing trees haha. When your hanging on those branches or sitting on those branches you can care less about the cork your scraping off.
What is cork?
A while back I wrote about the possible adaptive function of somnambulism or sleep-walking. Well...I've come up with yet another hypothesis addressing an "abnormal" behavior falling under parasomnias.
Reminder -- the Lupus Foundation of America's webchat is next Monday afternoon, November 23, at 3 p.m. Eastern Time.
The LFA welcomes Dr. Sam Lim, who will serve as the guest expert for the "Medication Adherence" webchat.
For the first time, it has been possible to measure electron density in individual molecular states using what is known as the photoelectric effect. Now published in SCIENCE, this method represents a key building block in the development of organic semiconductor elements.
My husband Tom has black hair, dark brown eyes, and olive skin - he can get blackish brown when he gets tanned. His parents (or supposed parents) both have blue eyes - his dad Edward had white blonde hair as a child and his mom Mary had dirty blonde hair. Is this possible?? (I changed a couple of names to protect myself!)
This week I attended a meeting held by the Society for Genomics Policy and Public Health entitled ‘Genetics and Health Promotion’. It was extremely interesting and posed two very significant questions. How do scientists translate genetic research into effective therapeutics and how is this then effectively pitched to public health strategists?
