Why not make it move?

Why we do not make housecalls.

Why not use it all?

One of the prominent features of the recent Annual Meeting of the Society of Toxicology (SOT) in New Orleans, Louisiana, was the debate on a hypothetical motion to have the results of mechanistic toxicity studies supersede ambiguous epidemiological data in chemical risk assessments for humans. The audience was polled prior to the debate, but the results have little to say about the merits of th...

What does glycolysis make and why is it important?

CLASSIC REFERENCES (e.g., Ref. 6) and Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia. org/wiki/Glycolysis) are alike in confusing readers on the process, regulation, and physiological roles of glycolysis. The reference sources assert that glycolysis produces pyruvic acid (i.e., pyruvate and protons), and that under anaerobic conditions, glycolysis produces lactic acid. In their thorough review of the stoichiom...

Enterprise Security: Why Do We Make It So Difficult?

Achieving information security and privacy is not a trivial exercise. This becomes much more challenging in the cloud, due to the multi-tenancy nature of cloud ecosystems. We are concerned that the traditional legacy compatible approach to software development is holding enterprises back from achieving effective security and privacy, particularly in the cloud. In this paper we discuss the impli...

Male lactation: why, why not and is it care?

Mammals are characterised by their ability to provision offspring with milk, but lactation is normally restricted to females. Why do most males not share this trait? The morphological and physiological modifications necessary for male lactation are possible and, although restrictive, the ecological factors that could select for male lactation seem common enough. Until quite recently, there was ...
