You'd think that acorn barnacles would have a tough time mating, being stuck to a rock and all. Fortunately, they evolved the "longest penis relative to their body size of any animal." The Brown University evolutionary biologists behind Creature Cast explain it in a new video shot by postdoc Stefan Siebert.

Dana Thomas details in Newsweek how Versace became a bit of a mess after the death of Gianni. It used to rake in over $1 billion in sales, but now makes less than half of that.

Thomas reiterates previous reports about ex-CEO Giancarlo Di...

A rare opportunity to dip back into some vinyl. As luck and the alphabet would have it, directly preceding my rather un-looked-forward to reinvestigation of my Glass on wax, there sits Jon Gibson's "Two Solo Pieces", issued in 1977 by Chatham Square (my only vinyl from that label--kicking myself for not ordering the early Glass things from NMDS when I could have). Two side-long works: "Cycles"...

I don't care too much about people's energy use, and, if people want to live in McMansions two hours from work, so be it. However, I do object to the subsidization of urban and suburban sprawl by tax-supported highways. I also object to the public subsidization of home ownership via the mortgage tax deduction. (I am a flat-taxer.) From the Globe: Nathaniel Baum-Snow of Brown University found that each...
