...painful but more of a sense of just a tug, one that provides a calming feeling," says Grant. "Some of these people are not even aware they are pulling their hair. Their spouses will say, 'Stop that,' and they are not even aware they have a clump of hair on their lap." (See the top 10 medical breakthroughs...
...fields, men in red and green jerseys played soccer. Families watched and cheered from the picnic tables. A few steps over, a group of 20-somethings stood in a clump, arms crossed. “This is great,” said one. “Yeah, this is pretty great.” Behind them, a sign draped over a fence. “Welcome to Red Hook.

Embedded inside Saturn's E ring - the outermost of the eight bands that make up the ring system - Enceladus seemed to orbit with a thick clump of ring matter trailing behind it, almost as if it were dragging the material in its gravitational wake. What astronomers suspected instead - and what Voyager confirmed - was that Enceladus was not dragging matter but expelling it, chugging through its orbits like a locomotive and leaving a vapor trail behind...

...became interested in looking at flocculation. “From the yeast’s perspective—why would they want to stick together in the first place?” In the lab, Verstrepen and his Harvard team isolated the gene that was responsible for yeast clumping and named it “FLO1.” They also discovered the evolutionary purpose of this gene: to provide “a very simple defense mechanism,” according to Verstrepen. “These yeast form a big clump of cells,” he explained...
