Mutations are the raw material of evolution. Charles Darwin already recognized that evolution depends on heritable differences between individuals: those who are better adapted to the environment have better chances to pass on their genes to the next generation. A species can only evolve if the genome changes through new mutations, with the best new variants surviving the sieve of selection. Scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology in Tübingen, Germany, and Indiana University in Bloomington have now been able to measure for the first time directly the speed with which new mutations occur in plants. Their findings shed new light on a fundamental evolutionary process. They explain, for example, why resistance to herbicides can appear within just a few years. (Science, January 1, 2010)
Over the past decade, researchers have developed a variety of reliable real-time and archival instruments to study sounds made or heard by marine mammals and fish. These new sensors are now being used in research, management, and conservation projects around the world, with some very important practical results. Among them is improved monitoring of endangered North Atlantic right whales in an effort to reduce ship strikes, a leading cause of their deaths.
Jerry is a big strapping lad, but he’s very nice natured and adores people. He loves company so would really like a home with someone who can be around a lot during the day. He gets on well with other laid-back dogs and would be happy sharing his new home with a canine housemate.

Does anyone still take baths these days? While the speed and efficiency of a quick shower is hard to beat, there is something to be said for a long soothing hot soak in the tub. I’m just not sure I’d want to do it in the Tub-E.
Looking like a triumph of form over function, the undeniably cool looking Tub-E includes several high tech functions to make your bath time a bit more luxurious. A thermostatically controlled heater under the seat keeps the water at a constant temperature, so you won’t be adding hot water to reheat the water every few minutes. Add to that its auto fill, auto empty, and auto clean cycles, plus the ability to inject various bath oils during the fill process, and you certainly have a few improvements over the centuries old basic tub. My main issue is that it just looks incredibly uncomfortable.
The Tub-E is available from Wild Terrain Designs. No word on the price.
