NEW: We've issued Bristol City Council with an enforcement notice for their failure to respond to the public's information requests. Subject access requests are a fundamental right, this action requires them to clear their SAR backlog and make lasting improvements.

Cancer cells hijack T-cells, making it harder for the body to fight back! Researchers discovered a surprising way cancer evades the immune system. It essentially hacks the immune cells, transferring its own faulty mitochondrial DNA into the T-cells meant to attack it. 1/

I captured the entire "Planetary Parade" using my 11" telescope, and combined everything into one composite photo that stayed true to the angular scale of these objects. Made entirely with real photos, I hope this composite helps illustrate the scale of these things!

What happens in China never just stays in China. There is a surge in influenza A in the U.S. as well this winter. We rarely test whether the virus is conventional flu, or H1N1 swine flu, H5N1 bird flu. But the crowded ERs seen in many places are indications something is afoot.

We left a bike with GPS trackers somewhere we assumed it would be safe... Right outside Scotland Yard. It was quickly stolen. Police didn't check CCTV, couldn't go to a "moving" GPS signal or one at an address Government has given up and police can't focus on rampant theft.
