A geological timescale for bacterial #evolution and oxygen adaptation science.org/doi/10.1126/scienc…

"the earliest aerobic transition occurred in an ancestor of photosynthetic #cyanobacteria, indicating that the ability to utilize trace amounts of oxygen may have allowed the development of genes central to oxygenic #photosynthesis."

Molecular clock analysis shows bacteria used oxygen long before widespread photosynthesis

Microbial organisms dominate life on Earth, but tracing their early history and evolution is difficult because they rarely fossilize. Determining when exactly a particular group of microbes first appeared is especially hard.

Republican rebels try to stop Trump's Canada tariffs


Four Republican US senators have broken ranks and voted with the Democrats in an effort to block President Donald Trump's tariffs against Canada. In a rare display of opposition to the president, Lisa Murkowski, Mitch McConnell, Rand Paul and Susan Collins helped to vote through a resolution 51 to 48 to end Trump's emergency declaration on fentanyl trafficking that he has used to justify tariffs on Canadian imports.

Cat #PSA: If you clip your (indoor) cat's claws, at the beginning you need to trim a little bit every few days; as the quick recedes gradually, the claws can be trimmed shorter, and they'll be easier to maintain. I noticed that the cats are having an easier time controlling them when they're shorter.

Couldn't find the original source for the diagram.

#CatCare #CatCareTips

Diagram of how to trim a cat's claw. The first part shows a short nail with the blood supply, also called quick or Kwik. Then longer claw with a long quick running trough, the blood supply gets longer with the nail, a shallow cut that runs trough the blood vessel will cause bleeding and the nail will still be too long. A smaller trim will cause the blood supply to get shorter. If you clip or file a little bit of the long nail, every few days, the blood supply will continue to recede, showing a cat claw decreasing in size. As the nail gets shorter so does the blood supply. Only when the nail is kept short it can be trimmed without bleeding, if the same cut had been made on the long nail it would have caused bleeding. Showing a cut in a now much shorter claw. A properly trimmed nail, showing a short claw with a shallow cut.
