"Plants Have a Social Life, Too" By Brandon Keim "After decades of seeing plants as passive recipients of fate, scientists have found them capable of behaviors once thought unique to animals. Some plants even appear to be social, favoring family while pushing strangers from the neighborhood. Research into plant sociality is still young, with many questions unanswered. But it may change...

And So it Goes in Shreveport (Free subscription) | 19/11/2009
Sort of like Andrew Sullivan , but not really, I'm taking a short " lacuna ." Am I digging through Going Rogue in search of Trig stories? Am I digging through Sarah Palin's memoir for more salacious gossip on the wardrobe scandal? No, no, nothing so worldly and important as that! I'll leave that stuff to the professionals like Andrew Sullivan! I'm digging through Harry Reid's big baby. Want...

The British Commissary of Prisoners suggested that Massachusetts release Dr. Benjamin Church . The state government agreed , but the people did not . Which left Dr. McHenry...

The obvious place to start is with the railway station. It is well overdue a total revamp and there's been much talk recently about making Tonbridge a South East transport hub; and why not? It's in a very good location both in...
