Mix-ups M&Ms don’t work. The peanut M&Ms overpower the others.
New form of entanglement plays with time and... →
By advancing one photon in time a bit, and retarding the other in time a bit, the entanglement between them only allows the photons to have identical wavelengths. Advancing both photons in time a bit…

Scientists Discover Gene That 'Cancer-proofs'... →
The mole rat’s cells express a gene called p16 that makes the cells “claustrophobic,” stopping the cells’ proliferation when too many of them crowd together, cutting off runaway growth before it can…
HHMI News: Studies Begin to Shape New Image of DNA →
Most of us carry a mental picture of DNA in its iconic form – the famous double helix unveiled by Francis Crick and James Watson. But researchers are beginning to develop a new picture of DNA that…
Only 10% of the audience at the Singularity Summit believed in General Intelligence within 10 years. Smart audience.

If NASA doesn’t get Ares I-X up in the next one and a half hours, I’m sending them Viagra.
Since Google’s new “Find similar images” is censorsed, I had to search for lingerie instead. The results are pending hearing from me again.
