Michael Fischbach has found that some people's intestinal bacteria seems to play a role in keeping their weight down:
“I’m very excited about this,” he added, saying the next step will be to
try using gut bacteria to treat obesity by transplanting feces from
thin people.
I frankly find this less surprising than this from Denmark's public broadcaster, which makes The Killing: DR's series acquisitions executive Karre Schmidt said: "Midsomer
Murders is a benchmark in television entertainment and (has been) Danish
viewers' favourite programme for more than a decade. "It's an honour and a thrill for us to be able to contribute
to the series' distinguished line of murder victims and police
detectives," she said.
I'd never heard of the Uluburun shipwreck for some strange reason. I went for the cobalt, I stayed for the oxhide ingots. My favourite thing, though: the two duck-shaped cosmetics boxes in ivory, which sound like the sort of thing Sara Wissenger would give Josh in The West Wing.
I think Me Cheeta is a fantastic novel, one of my favourites written in the last few years - really super until somewhere near the end and then appreciably better than that all of a sudden; I like the fact that James Lever is well-hidden online; I really want to know what he's working on next. His review of Freedom is spectacularly good.
