Just in case this hasn’t been beaten completely to death yet, ScienceDaily also has an article about the discovery of Hesperonychus, a very puny dinosaur. Remember, this is the one I saw on TV (while eating poutine). Here’s a taste of the article: “Hesperonychus is currently the smallest dinosaur known from North America. But its [...]

Do you know what G.I. Joe, Harry Potter, Sherlock Holmes, and Charles Darwin have in common? Carl Zimmer Does.

I’d like to relay a story about what happened while I was having dinner at the on-campus dining hall yesterday.  I had a bunch of salad, and then decided I wanted something with a little more grease in it.  I went back into the Buffet area and cobbled together a makeshift poutine.  If you don’t [...]

Continuing in yesterday’s grand tradition of highlighting the stellar work of other bloggers (because I don’t have time to write my own stuff), I would like to point you guys to Anne Minard’s blog, 100 Days of Science, for a wicked article about saving the world from climate change.

The pikaia revolt! Walcott disapproves! Action in the Burgess Shale, oh my!

Here’s the deal. I’ve had a sleep deprived week and I’m exhausted, so I’m posting video. Plus, I feel that my readers don’t know enough about Chinese food. You all know how I hate ignorance, so I can’t let that stand. So, I would like to present one of the more awesome TED lectures. Ever. [...]
