A.R.S.E.

Recently got back into reading New Scientist after doing some fishing. Used to read this a lot when I first started work at a paper making research unit many years ago.

Latest issue has some interesting subjects including plants doing quantum computing, communicating with people in a coma or vegetative state (made the news recently), a "telescope" to catch bots on the net, how earth got it's oxygen and the secrets of..... water.

V interesting

sounds interesting indeed - is it paper only?

johnny, it is a good read

nope ysu, http://www.newscientist.com/

You can subscribe at the New Scientist site http://www.newscientist.com/ in which case you'll get a copy of the weekly mag in print form and access to the whole of the on-line articles. As I said, I went fishing and happened across the latest issue in PDF form. I'll prolly look around again next week

Oops, ninjad by Mr Wobbles

hehe.. also they were talking about doing a podcast also but I don't know if that is still running

some other interesting podcasts
from Aus : The Science Show with Robin Williams, Dr.Karl on Triple J / Dr.Karl Great Moments in Science
from UK : The Naked Scientists

and I don't like the Scientific American

thanks, I'll look around!

Some more interesting topics this week, including massive supernovae that shouldn't exist, the possibility of life on Mars, and a gene responsible for Alzhiemers but also responsible for intelligence
