They all got it equally wrong because they all just kind of copied the article from the first news story they saw instead of going to the source or the scientists directly. This is how misinformation gets spread quite easily: there are tons of lazy people literally copying other people’s articles and putting them on…

They didn’t inject capsaicin into the pancreas. They injected something called “substance P,” which is quite different. Prof. Dosch got a patent for the same procedure in humans in 2015 and, according to one web site, started clinical trials last year.

If you read the papers, you would actually find out that majority of them discuss effect of capsaicin on diabetic neuropathy (nerve pain) relief in humans and not actual cure of underlying diabetes.

Their H-1B status does not allow them to look for another employer.

A lot of people seem confused about this. The problem is not and was never that Smith wanted to keep his past a secret or had a problem with that identity coming out on the show. Smith was aware of the likelihood and consented. I don’t know whether Smith considers himself “out” or not but from my perspective a…

I’ll definitely have to keep an eye out for this. I’m a fan of Gemma Chan, too. She’s awesome in Humans.

I feel that I must point out: Sonoya Mizuno is Japanese-British (I’m not even sure if she retains Japanese citizenship, because I’m not sure what the rules are about dual-citizenship, when it comes to Japan). She…

Your experience is why so many men have the illusion that the workplace is a meritocracy. You think that because you asked and received, everyone could. Please consider (and actually take time to read the above article?) that you are still benefiting from the fact that you are male, and that others cannot simply…

Maybe one will feature Liam Neesons!

Jordan Peele says he has four more “social thrillers” planned for the next decade.

It’s going to take Asian Americans (and Asians in other places as well) to really 1) see themselves as a much more cohesive group in the US and 2)start organizing in a loud way for this shit to stop happening. Also, it’s going to take shaking the perception as the “model minority” for a great many in this country to…

Hey, it got you to the Delta Quadrant though, so that’s...something?

These comments are pissing me off. I get it, you hate rich people and it’s fun to parse their words even when they obviously mean well. But I don’t quite believe it’s about rich people as much as it is about rich women. Rich women are somehow worse than rich men.

We had a similar exercise conducted at a hospital I worked at about 5 years ago. Our “trainer” was a knowledgeable, former FBI agent & just about the kindest man you could ever meet. The first thing he told us was, “you’re not Jack Bauer so stop pretending to be”. He said they’d get calls all the time about people…

You are correct. I have rightfully put virgin into quotation marks. Honestly, the whole idea of super-powered sex is pretty horrifying when you get down to it; Larry Niven’s classic “Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex” does a great job breaking down the absurdity of it.

The New York Daily News reports that he also has ties to a “known hate group,” though police declined to identify the group in question.

Ahhh, isnt she the Cutwife in Penny Dreadful?!

That’s awesome!

“if there’s not blow actually dripping out of your nose at time of death, “eh, natural causes, what can you do?”

Speaking of celeb families; here some Felicia Day & behbeh

We had the news on, and they were interviewing a trans woman who I would never have even guessed was trans if she hadn’t just said so. So my wife and I were talking about the fact that if that woman on the TV walked into the ladies room, neither of us would bat an eye. But if that same trans woman were forced to use…
