Last week had a few fewer publications than usual, but that doesn't mean I was slacking. I have at least three articles already queued up for publication this coming week -- heck, maybe all of them today -- and I'm working on several new features that won't appear for weeks if not months. I'm nothing if not busy.
Anyway, as we usually do here, let's start off the list of links with last week's Extinction Countdown articles for Scientific American:
Three New Slow Loris Species Discovered in Borneo; Rare Venomous Primates Threatened by Illegal Pet Trade
Newly Discovered Cave Weta Species Endangered by Coal Mining
By the way, I missed a milestone recently. Extinction Countdown passed the 1,000 article mark about two weeks ago. That's a lot of endangered species. Sadly, I could write about 10,000 more and not come close to running out of material.
Anyway, next up, my monthly career focus article for IEEE-USA's Today's Engineer:
Career Focus: Nuclear Engineering
And finally this week, here are two new articles for Mother Nature Network:
OMG letter-writing campaign seeks to save rhinos from extinction [This was also reprinted by the Huffington Post.]
Porcupine quills inspire new medical needles and adhesives
That's it for this time around. More next week -- probably a lot more!
