 96.06.03: Asteroids, Comets, and Meterorites: Their Intimate Relation with Life on Earth
I have long felt that science must be taught as an active, organic process of observation, measurement, hypothesizing, experimentation, discovery and theory-building, not as a static discipline.
This sort of an approach to science education is totally in keeping with the present national science education reform movement, which places greater emphasis on the process of science and less emphasis (and less time) on the specific blocks of subject matter which have been the mainstay of previous decades of science education.
This may appear to be an insurmountable task for the busy, generalist science teacher—the ongoing and simultaneous study of biology, chemistry, astronomy—all the physical and life sciences—but it’s a doable task and one which makes the profession of teaching all the more enjoyable and new.

The ultimate goal of the materials sciences is to understand the behavior of solids, melts and fluids over a range of pressures and temperatures, well enough to construct detailed, quantitative and predictive models of the physical and chemical processes operating in the industrial systems.
Such an inquiry is not limited to materials science alone but is the basis of understanding the nature of materials, which exist in space and planetary interiors.
The use of pressure or pressure in combination with temperature in materials science has been limited.

 Obese Mice Lacking Peptide Lose Weight
Erickson and colleagues at the University of Washington in Seattle made the discovery while studying a strain of leptin-deficient, grossly obese mice.
Leptin, which signals the brain when fat cells are overloaded, promotes weight loss by suppressing the appetite and boosting the metabolism, according to the report in this week's issue of Science.
Mice that lack the hormone, therefore, mistakenly believe that the body is starving, causing increased appetite and weight gain, and other obesity-related illnesses such as diabetes.

Zuckert's analysis concludes with a penetrating examination of John Trenchard and Thomas Gordon, the English "Cato," who, he argues, brought together Lockean political philosophy and pre-existing Whig political science into a new and powerful synthesis.
Although it has been misleadingly presented as a separate "classical republican" tradition in recent scholarly discussions, it is this "new republicanism" that served as the philosophical point of departure for the founders of the American republic.
