Scientists Uncover the Secret Lives of Urban Serpents—and Warn of Future Human-Wildlife Collisions In a landmark study that challenges conventional understanding of urban wildlife, researchers from India’s premier research institution have documented how snakes are not merely surviving in one of Asia’s fastest-growing cities—they’re adapting, evolving, and reshaping their ecology to coexist with…

CCMB study reveals new insights into the origin of the Nicobarese people. @neosciencehub #sciencenews #technologynews #researchnews #latestnews #information #genetic #Nicobaresepeople

Hyderabad-based Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB) and Banaras Hindu University (BHU), Varanasi, have uncovered freshi insights about the genetic roots of the Nicobarese people in a recent study. The findings challenge earlier assumptions about their ancestry and settlement timeline. It was long believed that the linguistic ancestors of the Nicobarese arrived in the Nicobar Islands…

A friend in sixth form college brought back Recovering the Satelites from a trip to New York and the moment I heard Catapult, Goodnight Elizabeth, and the eponymous title track, I knew I was done for. I was in love with a new kind of poet.

We've had our ups and downs. There have been times when I've not believed we'll work through our differences (Saturday Nights and Sunday Mornings), when I've cursed their tardiness (an age to release any new music and then they drop a greatest hits instead of the live album we were promised), and there've been moments when I've been mad at them for keeping secrets (Disney Boot). Overall though I am still as bessotted with them as I was almost 25 years ago.

Although they weren't my first love (Jason Donovan takes that mantle) they were probably my first true love. I have travelled all over to see them perform and, although Covid 19 has kept us apart a couple of times in the past, I'm so excited to be seeing them in September and October when I'll finally get to follow them around on their European tour.

To some people they're just another band but to me they are a massive part of why I am still here breathing, able to write out this long diatribe of reverence. They have brought me back from the brink of irreversible decision making on more than one occasion and I look forward to hopefully being able to tell them in person when I see them in Milan. 💛

Yellow person: They are the person who saved you. They are your hero, your reason for living. They make you happy beyond words can express. They are your twin flame or your soulmate. Your everything 💛
