I can't stress how much reading this story has become a Christmas tradition for me. Everything Caspar says about it is true. If this is your first time, I can only state my jealousy.

Happy Winter Solstice!
These photos were taken with a pinhole camera I made from a beer can and left out from Summer to Winter Solstice - a 6 month exposure.
Bottom line = Winter Solstice. Top line = Summer Solstice.
The lines are the Sun moving across the sky w/some reflections. No line = clouds

An example of what many of the big-name publishers are up to behind the scenes. Elsevier is not the only one that is scrimping on copyediting - others technically employ editors, but at well less than minimum wage. The result is that the journals go massively down in quality and comprehensibility.
Resignation of the Journal of Human Evolution Editorial Board: We are saddened to announce the resignations of The Joint Editors-in-Chief, all Emeritus Editors retired or active in the field, and all but one Associate Editor. Press release below.

Inscribed Deer Antler • Dublin • c.10-11th Century
A thousand years ago, Dublin was a melting pot of Irish & Viking culture. This can be seen on this deer antler, carefully cut and prepared to receive a runic inscription. The message still holds true today
It reads:
'deer antler'.
