ScienceBlogs is no more: Confessions of a Science Librarian is moving
October 30, 2017
As of November 1st, 2017, ScienceBlogs is shutting down, necessitating relocation of this blog. It's been over eight years and 1279 posts. It's been predatory open access publishers, April Fool's posts and multiple wars on science. A long and wonderful trip, career-transforming, network building…
Science in Canada: Save PEARL, The Polar Environment Atmospheric Research Laboratory
September 26, 2017

What are the odds? Part 2: Cosmic Inflation!
"It is said that there's no such thing as a free lunch. But the Universe is the ultimate free lunch." -Alan Guth We've talked about the Big Bang too many times to count, and why it's easily the leading theory regarding the origin of the Universe.
