September 1, 2010
As one of the initial recruits to Scienceblogs, my years and effort invested into Scienceblogs have been worthwhile. Since I relocated my original blog, Living the Scientific Life, to Scienceblogs in early January 2006, it received more than 6 million visits and nearly 30,000 comments, it helped…
ScienceBlogs = ZombieBlogs
July 20, 2010
Unless you've been living under a rock, or you are the CEO of Seed Media Group (SMG), you are well aware that Bora Zivkovic left ScienceBlogs 24 hours ago. Shockingly, despite this important loss, Adam Bly, CEO of SMG, has not communicated with any of us who remain at ScienceBlogs about this loss…

Why Mercury Isn't The Solar System's Hottest Planet (Synopsis)
“There is no question that climate change is happening; the only arguable point is what part humans are playing in it.” –David Attenborough If the Earth didn't have any global warming at all, our planet's mean temperature would be 255 K, or about -1º Fahrenheit: the mean temperature of the Antarctic continent. As it stands instead, our planet is much warmer than that, owing to the warming,…
Colder than empty space? How the Boomerang Nebula does it (Synopsis)
“If you want your boomerang to come back, first you've got to throw it.” -Steven Hall If you take all the matter out of the Universe, all you’d have left to warm you would be the radiation from the Big Bang’s leftover glow: the cosmic microwave background. At just 2.7º C above absolute zero, there’s no way of escaping this omnidirectional heat bath, as weak and ineffectual as it might be. Yet…
Does idling a car or truck save gas?
