    May 24, 2025 - By 

    Four of Cups: Divine Dissatisfaction & Hidden Offerings This week, we draw the Four of Cups—a cosmic invitation to look beyond what initially meets the eye. Like the contemplative sloth in our image, hanging from its familiar branch while an unseen cup hovers within reach, this card asks us to recognize what we might be overlooking due to emotional stagnation or habitual patterns. With Venus conjunct Saturn and the illuminating Libra Full Moon mid-week, there’s a powerful opportunity to break free from emotional numbness and rediscover what truly nourishes your soul. The Four of Cups whispers: your dissatisfaction is valid,…

    Genetically Rescued Organism: Toward A Solution For Sudden Oak Death

    May 24, 2025 - By 

    Sudden oak death, caused by the pathogen Phythophthora ramorum, is one of the most ecologically devastating forest diseases in North America, responsible for the deaths of millions of oaks and tanoaks along the coast. Science to the rescue? After the success of genetically modified organisms in things like insulin and food, a recent trend is Genetically Rescued Organisms. These GROs would use science to create natural resistance, like a vaccine for plants, and reduce the impact of altered species composition, released carbon pools, and greater fire risk the deaths bring. Before that can happen, scientists need to better understand the basic biology of Phythophthora ramorum, including how…

    Soup at the Barricades with the Queen of Georgian Cuisine

    May 24, 2025 - By 

    A father-daughter journalist team reports from Tbilisi, where nearly every night since protests broke out in October, the pioneering chef Tekuna Gachechiladze has been ladling out soup to demonstrators fighting for their country’s future. It has been more than a month of nonstop nightly protests here in front of Tbilisi’s Parliament building, the stage of every mass demonstration since 1989, when Soviet forces shot 19 people during a rally for independence. If the winter cold is taking a toll on us, you’d never know by the polyphonic songs people are singing, by the traditional dances, noisemaker hornsaand whistles. The frigid…

    With inflation and grocery prices still on the rise, I wanted to share some fresh tips on how to optimize your grocery savings. Here’s how to continue to save even when prices are creeping upward.  Buy in Bulk When There Are Sales That’s right. Anything that’s on bogo/super sale (especially staples, nonperishables, or daily items) you should buy in good quantities until the next sale on that item. This is an amazing way to truly spend less on groceries and it works.  Buying in bulk to avoid ever paying full price is amazing, but this tip goes hand in hand…

    Why are some rocks on the moon highly magnetic?

    May 24, 2025 - By 

    Where did the moon’s magnetism go? Scientists have puzzled over this question for decades, ever since orbiting spacecraft picked up signs of a high magnetic field in lunar surface rocks. The moon itself has no inherent magnetism today. Now, MIT scientists may have solved the mystery. They propose that a combination of an ancient, weak magnetic field and a large, plasma-generating impact may have temporarily created a strong magnetic field, concentrated on the far side of the moon. In a study appearing in the journal Science Advances, the researchers show through detailed simulations that an impact, such as from a…
