Once again the time is here to gather around and take a well deserved hiatus from all the politics of the day. Science talk is here. New discoveries, new takes on old knowledge, and other bits of news are all available for the perusing in today's information world. Over the fold are selections from the past week from a few of the many excellent science news sites around the world. Today's tidbits include mapping mammalian gene interactions, stone remains are Britain's earliest house, wax and soap help build electrodes for cheaper batteries, sensors more accurately measure the Chesapeake bay wetlands, and scientists discover oldest evidence of human stone tool use and meat eating. Pull up a comfy chair. There is plenty of room for everyone. Settle in for one more session of Dr. Possum's science education and entertainment.
