Couldn't find naughty kitten Denzel.
Happened to look in the top of the clothes hamper....

Photo shows the image of a clothes hamper. The top is stainless steel. Through a hole in the top you can just about make out two yellow eyes, looking back at you, from the darkness of the inside of the clothes hamper.

My not-so hot take- the ubiquitous small town that surrounds a small liberal arts college means that higher education is much more of a economic engine than coal mines or whatever the hell MAGA is bringing up as the only valid jobs this week.

An ML-guided, cell-free enzyme engineering platform for optimizing substrate preference.

www.nature.com/articles/s41...
An ML-guided, cell-free enzyme engineering platform. Rapid generation of sequence-fitness landscape data for ML-guided directed evolution of McbA. ML-guided directed evolution predicts highly active mutants with a lower screening burden than iterative site saturation mutagenesis. The diverse accessible chemical space of McbA suggests a biocatalyst capable of synthesizing several high value molecules.

Total einfach war’s bestimmt für Brandt (Anschlag auf Olympia in München 1972, Ölkrise 1973 mit autofreien Sonntagen und der Guillaume-Affäre), dabei hat er nebenbei die Annäherung an Osteuropa gewuppt (Kniefall in Warschau).

How about Ottawa renames the Sussex Drive to Lake Ontario Boulevard? The institution at 490 Sussex Drive would have to amend it’s stationery. Oh, it is an Embassy…..🤓

Never forget that RFK Jr. helped bring about an outbreak of measles in 2019, in Samoa, in which almost 6,000 people became ill and 83 died, most of which were young children.
How RFK Jr. Falsely Denied His Connection to a Deadly Measles Outbreak in Samoa
He also championed a Samoan anti-vaxxer tied to the 2019 lethal eruption that killed scores of children.

Félix Vallotton's landscapes often have a slightly unreal, somewhat disquieting feel. Just two tiny figures walk along the sand on the Normandy coast in La grève blanche, Vasouy (1913, Private collection). In the stunning Vallotton show at MCBA Lausanne: art-exhibitions.blogspot.com/2025/12/thro...

An artist's book based on a missing person poster sits displayed inside a glass case at MCBA. The printed paper structure is folded into three-dimensional panels, fragmenting the central portrait of a woman's face across overlapping curved flaps. Clinical details—age, physical traits, missing date—and safety notices flank the portrait. The base rests on a sheet titled "URGENT," with the entire paper structure casting faint, transparent reflections across the polished glass tabletop. The gallery interior, with exposed brick and a wooden staircase, softly blurs in the background.

Exactly this. Like, I go out of my way to make assignments actually interesting and even fun, and this is the shit they're doing now? How about you save us all the goddam hassle and JUST DON'T TAKE MY FUCKING CLASS.

I had students this year use an off brand ChatGPT for a discussion post on their favorite movie that involved infectious diseases. It was, basically, a free assignment I gave them. There was, literally, no wrong answer and it was meant to be fun, and yet…

En bicicleteada del sábado pasado arrancamos frente al Planetario Galileo Galilei. Muy singular en diseño arquitectónico más allá de funcionalidad excepcional. Abierto en 1968, pero proyectado en 1962 por Arq. Enrique Jan e Ing. Carlos Lauger, que trabajaban en la D. G. de Arquitectura de la MCBA.
