A 113-million-year-old pterosaur fossil from northeastern Brazil has yielded rare evidence of soft tissues, organic molecules and chemical traces of a diet heavy in fish and cephalopods such as squid or nautilus relatives.
California state regulators say AT&T lied to the Federal Communications Commission in an attempt to shut off its old copper phone network without providing an adequate replacement.
"AT&T asserts that California seeks to prohibit or hinder wireline carriers from discontinuing copper facilities and investing in fiber," said a June 15 filing by the state of California and the California Public Utilities Commission. "Indeed, AT&T has been making this argument for years. It is not and has never been true."
As we reported last month, AT&T sued California over the stateβs refusal to let it stop providing phone service to all potential customers in its wireline network territory. AT&T also petitioned the Federal Communications Commission to declare that California cannot enforce its rules and to let AT&T stop providing service to about 199,000 phone customers.
Researchers in Japan have developed a new light-based technology that can rapidly gather thousands of bacteria into a tiny area, making them much easier to detect. The breakthrough could help doctors diagnose infections earlier and may also support environmental monitoring and other forms of biological testing. The research team, led by Professor Takuya Iida from [β¦]
Researchers have created a model that follows food beyond traditional calorie calculations, incorporating the role of gut microbes in digestion. Food labels make calorie counts look straightforward. The number listed per serving is calculated from the foodβs fat, carbohydrate, and protein content. In reality, the digestive process is much more complex. As food moves through [...]
Researchers found that a simple addition to a 5-a-day diet was associated with improved mental well-being in adults with low fruit and vegetable intake. New research from Newcastle University suggests that drinking a daily glass of 100% fruit juice or a smoothie as part of the countryβs 5-a-day nutrition recommendation may help improve mental well-being.
