New Hampshire has been relatively unscathed by COVID up till now, so among the entire population – vaccinated and unvaccinated – there probably hasn’t been as much previous community exposure as in many other states. Also, most of the prior … Continue reading →
If Roe is overturned it will almost certainly leave decisions about abortion law in the hands of each state, for that state only. If Governor Newsom of California has anything to say about it, California will not only keep abortions … Continue reading →

[Hat tip: Instapundit.] This sounds extraordinary: Samuel Stupp at Northwestern University in Chicago and his colleagues created a material made of protein units, called monomers, that self-assemble into long chains, called supramolecular fibrils, in water. When they were injected into … Continue reading →
