Primary domestication and early uses of the emblematic olive tree: palaeobotanical, historical and molecular evidence from the Middle East :: Our knowledge of the origins of olive tree domestication in the Middle East and on the processes governing its extension and persistence in different vegetation types from prehistory through antiquity to modern times derives from diverse sources, spanning the biological sciences to the humanities.

With food safety bill, U.S. government will spend nearly $1 million per person to prevent food-borne illness deaths :: (NaturalNews) The recently-passed Food Safety Modernization Act, which was passed in order to prevent food-borne illness deaths in the USA, will cost $1.4 billion over the first five years. But nobody thinks about the economics of the issue. How many people are we going to save by spending this $1.4 billion, even assuming it works?To answer that question, let's look at the food illness fatality figures offered by the CDC:• Out of the 5,000 food-borne illness deaths each year in the United States, only 1,809 are "attributable to foodborne transmission" according to the CDC (http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/EID/vol5no5/mead.htm#Table%203).• E.coli, which is often quoted in the big scare stories about food safety, only kills 78 people a year through food-borne transmission (52 plus 26, fro...

Essential reading for science writers: The Big Short by Michael Lewis :: When it comes to building a compelling narative about a complex subject, Michael Lewis is the best in the businessEnter the Wellcome Trust Science Writing Prize in association with the Guardian and the ObserverMichael Lewis doesn't write about science. He made his reputation with books and features about business and finance. His most famous works, Moneyball and The Blind Side, are about baseball and American football. Reading him won't help you to understand the intricacies of epigenetics or quantum mechanics, or to get into the mind of a scientist at work. Yet he's an author from whom every aspiring science writer – and every experienced one at that – can learn.That's because, when it comes to building a compelling narrative about a complex factual subject that most ordinary readers ...
