Scientists’ tree of life

Darcy Hitchcock

The tree of life is an ancient religious symbol in many faiths. Now, thanks to big data, you can see where every known species fits on the tree of life using Onezoom.org.

Search for your favorite animal, tree or fungus and you’ll see when it evolved and what it’s related to. The search below is for “bear.”

Red leaves indicate a species under threat of extinction, green is okay for now, and gray indicates the species status is unknown.

OneZoom was developed by Imperial College London biodiversity researcher Dr. James Rosindell and University of Oxford evolutionary biologist Dr. Yan Wong. In a paper published today in Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Drs Wong and Rosindell present the result of over ten years of work, gradually creating what they regard as “the Google Earth of biology”.

Do Better Elevator Pitch

Context, Thought, and Learning: ShiraDest Offers Project Do Better

      Has anyone got an opinion about this elevator pitch (namely, is it interesting, moving, and would it motivate you to want to hear more)?

“This book lays out a vision of a world described by FDR’s Four Freedoms and a pathway which could get us there in about 70 years.”

Y así termina un año más…

Y así termina un año más en nuestras vidas, como las botellas y las copas con vino tinto que permanecen abandonadas sobre la mesa tras el brindis, los abrazos, las remembranzas, las felicitaciones y los recuentos, unas pletóricas, otras a la mitad y algunas vacías. Se parecen tanto a los seres humanos. Todo es tan efímero y relativo. El confeti y las serpentinas quedan desolados y se mezclan con los vasos rotos, con las envolturas vacías, con las risas y las lágrimas. Y así se va un año más de nuestras existencias, con las ausencias y las presencias que se tuvieron, los encuentros y los desencuentros, las cargas y las liviandades, las alegrías y las tristezas, las formalidades y las ocurrencias. Se pierde y se gana. Se nace y se muere. Unos buscan la felicidad, el placer, la realización…

Tente ir além

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

” Não basta lutar.

É preciso sonha a própria vida.

Abrir as janelas

Respirar o ar que entra,

Olhar a rua

Mudar de calçada se preciso.

Se libertar das dores

e do que não nos permite ser nós mesmos.

É preciso apreciar as coisas boas

Vivê-las em cada vão momento.

Tudo depende de nós.

A grandeza do universo

O sorriso dos lábios de uma criança.

Tudo é tão sutil e significativo

Que esse respirar consciente é o indispensável a nossa saúde mental, social.

Tente ir um pouco além

Não se limite, em tudo há vida.
