Credit: Shutterstock Even with plenty of fish in the sea, sea dragons stand out from the crowd. The funky, fabulous fish are bedecked with ruffly leaf-like adornments. Their spines are kinked. They’re missing their ribs and their teeth. And the responsibility of pregnancy is taken on by the males. By sequencing the genomes of two species of sea dragons, University of Oregon (UO) researchers have found genetic clues to the fish’s distinctive features: They’re missing a key group of genes found in other vertebrates. Those genes help direct the development of the face, teeth and appendages, as well as parts…

It was a time in my life that I felt most alive. The images and feelings remain vivid, almost magical. One day, I had the idea to create a novel that follows a garment through a…

As race season approaches, many runners have the same goal: go faster. But in a study publishing April 28 in the journal Current Biology, researchersshow that speeding up might require defying our natural biology.

The research group, composed of scientists from Queens University in Ontario and Stanford University in California,…

As climate change warms the planet, glaciers are melting faster, and scientists fear that many will collapse by the end of the century, drastically raising sea level and inundating coastal cities and island nations. A University of California, Berkeley, scientist has now created an improved model of glacial movement that could help pinpoint those glaciers in the Arctic and Antarctic most likely to rapidly slide downhill and fall into the ocean. The new model, published last week in the journal The Cryosphere, incorporates the effects of meltwater that percolates to the base of a glacier and lubricates its downhill flow.…

One of the more fun package tours of 2022 for ’90s alt-rock fans has Barenaked Ladies hitting the road with Gin Blossoms and Toad the Wet Sprocket.

Credit: Matthew Austin In many Missouri backyards, a carpet of small purple or white violets is a sure sign of spring. Research from Matthew Austin, a postdoctoral fellow with the Living Earth Collaborative at Washington University in St. Louis, has found that climate change is…
Parents hated a lot of stuff in the 1990s, but Public Enemy #1 as far as watchdog groups were concerned were animated TV series. Bart Simpson and his anti-authority catchphrases got The Simpsons shirts banned from my elementary school (and right after my mom bought me a killer Bartman sweater, too).

MIke Judge’s pair of obnoxious, chuckling idiots became the poster children for (or were sometimes blamed as the cause of!) the moral rot at the heart of American teenagers in the…
