...PNAS study undermines that hope. The key difference in this study was the presence of a single gene from the H3N2 human virus: the PB2 protein, which gave the hybrid viruses the ability to spread easily among the lab mice. Scientists think the protein may allow hybrid viruses to grow more efficiently in the lower temperatures of the upper respiratory tract, from which the virus can more easily spread to others.

...twenty-somethings that spend years in a sheltered limbo between adolescence and adulthood—a 2005 Times article called them “twixters.” People are settling down later, having children later, and it seems we can wait as long as we want to grow up. We are the product of society in which, perhaps more than ever before, age is really just a number.

...Department of Energy. A Smart Grid is expected to be more efficient in delivering electricity and has a smaller environmental impact than conventional methods.
