Sunspots 181


Things I have recently spotted that may be of interest to someone else:




Science:
Wired has a report on virgin birth (really!) in sharks.

Also from Wired: an ecosystem consisting of a single species.

A man who has had a new hand transplanted onto his arm has some feeling in it!

This is really about science -- psychology, to be exact -- not politics: Slate on why Senator McCain got booed at his own rally, for saying that Senator Obama was a decent person who disagreed with him.

Politics:
Jan has written a few haiku, describing the nationally televised political debates, and invites readers to add their own.

Computing:
A Reasonable Imagination says that the use of hyperlinks can contribute to stupidity. The post is here. Sorry!

Christianity:
He Lives on the significance of the Tree of Life.
