		Nolan and Ursin state:6 "Juries are not required to, and often do not, believe the plaintiff's witness...." The million dollar question is: How often is "often?"7 The concept of fairness upon which our law is founded requires that citizens be able to understand their legal obligations so that they may behave accordingly.
		The fact that "junk science" may be relied upon by the courts to delimit legal obligations can only make the law more erratic and unpredictable.
		If the law has a "better" method than that of science for establishing facts, then perhaps the legal method should be considered for broader application, such as in the formulation of environmental and drug regulations.

	AAAS - Scientific Freedom, Responsibility and Law
		Our aim is to advance the participation of girls and women in the sciences, from biomedicine to mathematics and the social sciences, in engineering, and in the technologies, in all areas and at all levels.
		Our mission is to provide engineers, scientists, and science and engineering students with resources for understanding and addressing ethically significant problems that arise in their work, and to serve those who are promoting learning and advancing the understanding of responsible research and practice in science and engineering.
		Science and Engineering Ethics is a multi-disciplinary quarterly journal launched in January 1995 which is dedicated to exploring ethical issues of direct concern to scientists and engineers covering professional education, research and practice as well as the effects of innovations on the wider society.

		One item of particular interest is a review Johnson wrote for a National Science Foundation research proposal in 1968 (see attachment, letter 2 February 1968), in which he discusses why he chose to stop doing research on the Lumbee people.

		Scientists' best guess as to how life got kick-started in the primordial soup is that self-replicating RNA molecules acquired the ability to act like enzymes, using their shape to catalyze biochemical reactions essential for the growth of primitive cells.
		Strands in Saturn's narrow F ring are actually part of a Tightly wound spiral, possibly caused by the gravitational interactions of tiny moons or clumps of dust.

		It is one of science's more perplexing and enduring mysteries.
		Even the most modern, sophisticated neutrino detectors count only about one-third the number of neutrinos that the sun "should" be sending in our direction -- according to our best theories on the nuclear reactions simmering away in the solar core.
		The problem deepens: The first 102 days of neutrino data from Japan's new Super-Kamiokande detector suggest that the solar neutrino flux is greater at night than during the day, and that it also varies during the year.

		The mouse study, by researchers in Sweden, found that neural stem cells taken from the central nervous system of adult mice and transferred to mouse and chicken embryos were converted into the cell types that are found in a variety of body tissues and organs.
		One part of the study, appearing Friday in the journal Science, showed that some neural stem cells converted to become part of a beating heart in a mouse embryo.
		In another paper in Science, Lemischka and his Princeton colleagues report identifying 2,000 genes in blood stem cells.

		But "a lot of us wonder whether it's really important in the field." He and others note that Bt bacteria have been sprayed on farm fields for 3 decades, and that earlier studies had shown that beneficial predator insects were unaffected.
		Even if the technology has yielded few clear-cut benefits in the developed world, agbiotech backers say that in the developing world, new crops in the pipeline could improve yields for farmers and make tremendous strides toward reducing malnutrition and environmental degradation.
		Other researchers are developing plant-based vaccines to prevent diarrheal and other diseases in the developing world, says plant biochemist Charles Arntzen, president of the Boyce-Thompson Institute for Plant Research in Ithaca, New York.

	Nat' Academies Press, Unit Manufacturing Processes: Issues and Opportunities in Research (1995)
		Many different studies undertaken in recent years to define the most important areas of future industrial research have placed process understanding at or near the top of the list.
		For instance, the report by the National Research Council, Materials Science and Engineering in the 1990s: Maintaining Competitiveness in the Age of Materials, highlights materials synthesis and processing as an important area of expanded emphasis over the next decade (NRC, 1989).
		Indeed, every nation's success as a global manufacturer requires the development and use of manufacturing 1 At the end of the third quarter in 1990, manufacturing accounted for 18.9 percent of the gross domestic product in constant 1977 dollars, with 10 percent in durable goods and 8.9 percent in nondurable goods (DoC, 1993).

		Advanced General Geology is an introductory class designed for students who have some science background.
		This course is a fast-paced one that not only servers to introduce the student to basic introductory material, but also introduces the student to current research topics in the Earth sciences.
		This is done, in part, by assigning readings in research articles dealing with recent advances in diverse fields while at the same time presenting introductory material.

		These findings, especially the remarkably young age of the positively selected variant, suggest that the human brain is still undergoing rapid adaptive evolution.
		In fact, that's a mystery in itself: The F ring is believed to contain many large boulders and moonlets, which would make it hard for a small satellite to survive multiple crossings.
		But in the last year, modelers have improved their galaxy recipes by adding generous portions of wanton violence, which alters the appearance and dynamics of galaxies in just the right ways.

	Marine minerals map Cretaceous climate
		Deep ocean cores laid down from 130 to 65 million years ago (Ma) reveal rapid fluctuations in levels of sulfur isotopes present in the mineral barite, says Adina Paytan, assistant professor of geological and environmental sciences at Stanford University.
		The fraction of isotope 34 in prehistoric oceans was far lower than in the past 45 million years, perhaps due to increased volcanic and hydrothermal activity, says Paytan.
