These are the wee hours of Winter’s long night. Each day the sunlight grows stronger, winter’s icy grip begins to slip just a bit, and the promise of spring, though weeks away, can be heard in the whispers of a less frigid wind. This moon cycle, starting with the new moon on January 20, contains the sabbat of Imbolc.

It’s ironic that a clear, bright blue sky and sunshine on Ground Hog Day, after so many overcast gray days of winter, is really just a “save the date” sent from Spring, an announcement of arrival at some distant time in the future. If you have difficu...
Scientists at Osaka University in Japan have just created baby mice with two dads. That’s right: these mice have two parents, and both parents are males. How did they do it, and what might this mean for humans? Well, as reported recently in the journal Nature, it wasn’t easy. The scientists fertilized 630 eggs to get j...	<urn:uuid:bcac9812-fc78-40c6-9ecb-8f62a274e3e8>	{ "dump": "CC-MAIN-2023-23", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-23/segments/1685224657144.94/warc/CC-MAIN-20230610062920-20230610092920-00248.warc.gz", "int_score": 4, "language": "en", "language_score": 0.9735506772994995, "pii_count": 0, "score": 3.625, "token_count": 792, "url":...

The team then used another genetic trick that induced some of these cells to pick up an extra X chromosome while they were replicating. At that point, they had created mouse cells with two X chromosomes: in other wo...
