Those attacking Nicola Sturgeon should reflect on her victories | The…
There is the campaign we just lost, what Labour said they would do, what they missed out, my views on how the new Labour group is shaping up, Jeremy Corbyn’s sensational victory, the decimation of the Tories, where now for independence and – notwithstanding the impact on the hundreds of people who have just lost their jobs – that question about whether or not it is a bad thing for our movement that we lost so many seats last week.

Anne McLaughlin's Bill has been blocked twice at the second reading stage.
New developments in tuberculosis diagnosis and treatment
Cara M. Gill, Lorraine Dolan, Laura M. Piggott, Anne Marie McLaughlin Breathe 2022 18: 210149; DOI: 10.1183/20734735.0149-2021 Abstract Tuberculosis (TB) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. It is estimated that 25% of the world's population are infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, with a 5–10% lifetime risk of progression into TB disease. Early recognition of TB disease and prompt detection of drug resistance are essential to halting its global burden.
User Testing for Interplanetary Expeditions
I was listening to the Big Picture Science podcast on my way to work this morning when I heard a great example of how to test equipment prior to a mission. Hosts are Molly Bentley and Seth Shostak. The interview was with Dr. Jennifer Heldmann, an astrobiologist who studies “Mars analogues” on earth – the Atacama Desert in South America and the very cold, very dry “dry valleys” in Antarctica.
Calling the Media out for Misleading InfoViz
I was reading an article on my local news today and saw this graphic, apparently made for the article. Being from Alabama, and just a pattern-recognition machine in general, I immediately noticed it was an anomaly. The lightest pink surrounded on all sides by the darkest red? Unlikely. The writer helpfully provided a source though, from the FBI, so I could look at the data myself. There, right at the start, is a footnote for Alabama.

Solving Beer Estimation Difficulties
The subtle change in the diameter of a glass can hide large changes in volume. Unfortunately for us, we’re terrible at estimating this, even when we logically know it to be true. For example, a few millimeters at the top of a pint glass equals an ounce of liquid, while the same height measure at the bottom of the glass is far less.
Older adults’ self-reported barriers to adherence to dietary guidelines and strategies to overcome them
Once an older adult develops type 2 diabetes, they often need to change their diet as part of the treatment. We report differences in dietary barriers and strategies to overcome them in 17 older adults without type 2. Data were gathered through 24-hour diet recalls, collected barriers and strategies in changing diet, and the health locus of control scales. Differences in barriers and strategies were partially explained by health locus of control subscales.
