Mixotrophy: Who's watching your dishwasher

http://mixotrophy.blogspot.com/2010/07/whos-watching-your-dishwasher.html

Wednesday, July 07, 2010. Who's watching your dishwasher. I followed a link in this Seth Godin blog post. To a video of a presentation. Given by Tim O'Reilly at a recent conference. The theme of the talk was the importance of data and data accessibility to future web based applications. I did not watch the whole thing, but a point he made about 10 minutes into the talk really struck me. He was talking about smart metering of electricity consumption. I recently came across your blog and have been reading ...

The Times Microbial: Prokaryotes Can Do Geometry, and Even Have Their Own Protractor

http://www.phagehunter.org/2009/05/prokaryotes-can-do-geometry-and-even.html

Where we ONLY sweat the small stuff. Thursday, September 17, 2009. Prokaryotes Can Do Geometry, and Even Have Their Own Protractor. Despite what once was a popular opinion, bacterial cells are not mere sacks of enzymes. Rather, we are discovering that they are highly structured. (Although, this probably should have been expected) Bacterial cells have to know where their poles are located in order to create such structures as E . coli’s chemotactic nose. The result was that SpoVM still localized only to t...

The Naked Galaxy: October 2007

http://thenakedgalaxy.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html

Monday, October 29, 2007. Is dark matter purely science fiction? Now, two Canadian scientists think there is a good reason dark matter doesn't exist at all. No one has come up with a strong evidence that it exists. Since I have yet seen one, I have no knowledge whether it exists. The universe has a lot of strange things. Scientists have yet understood many factors, especially with the Big Bang theory and how long the universe will continue to expand, possibly eternity. I doubt it but we will see! I was a...

The Naked Galaxy: May 2008

http://thenakedgalaxy.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html

Sunday, May 25, 2008. NYT : NASA Spacecraft Appears to Have Landed on Mars. I was delighted to learn that the NASA spacecraft may have landed on Mars safely. We will find out later to see if the probe is in good shape and it may take some time to unfold things before the robotic arm starts to drill in the ice surface and collect some data. It could help to shed some light about life and the red planet itself. I look forward to receiving some news on some analysis. Tuesday, May 20, 2008. The explosion of ...

Wednesday, August 29, 2007. Protect my beloved Lucy! Lucy is set to be on the public display at the Houston Museum of Natural Science. Ethiopia has agreed to lend Lucy to the United States for 6 years so that Lucy can go on an 11-city tour. Lucy is an australopithecus that lived 3.2 million years ago. She had longer arms than us. That species has become extinct after Homo species emerged. Lucy is one of my favorite species. For further reading, click on the link below. Tuesday, August 28, 2007. About Ray...
