Rice into low-carbon plastic: bringing hope to a struggling Fukushima town
Jinichi Abe grins as he watches diggers working earth near his rice fields, knowing they are returning still more fields to productivity after Fukushima nuclear reactors exploded and sprayed the area with radiation over a decade ago.

Mice with Two Fathers? Researchers Develop Egg Cells from Male Mice
The research offers a tantalizing glimpse at a future in which two men can have biological children together, but any human applications remain in the distant future
www.scientificamerican.com
The new announcement marks the first time that researchers have managed to turn a stem cell from an adult male mouse into an egg. It’s a new variation on what scientists call in vitro gametogenesis. During in vitro gametogenesis, researchers create gametes (sperm and egg cells) from induced pluripotent stem cells, which are unspecialized cells converted from body tissue that researchers can then manipulate into, say, blood cells or neurons. Although the advance raises the possibility that men may someday be able to have biological children together, any such attempt remains a long way off, researchers emphasize.

Probably covered already someplace in here but I just ran across so indulge me. More crazy Egyptian stuff, have no idea how these made, how they got to where they are and/or what they were for since they are all empty. They made a box that technically, with the tools they had available, they shouldn't have been able to make...then they repeated it 24 more times.

The article mentions a “pinhole effect,” and that’s something I stumbled across years ago when I started to need reading glasses. If I need to read something (like a product label in a store), if I make a small pinhole with my index finger curled into a circle, it effectively functions like I’m wearing reading glasses. I’m sure I look weird doing it, but in a pinch, it’s helpful.Why Does Squinting Help You See Better?

Just paste the link (without customizing the title.. not sure if that interferes or not). Some sites won't work though with that automatic display feature. Something with the site's server I'd guess.
