Usually when aliens invade and start doing the whole body snatching thing, they don't go around telling everyone about it. Anastasia, aka Stasia, Miller seems to have missed that memo. The main character of Mira Grant's Overgrowth is an infiltrator from a race of plant-like aliens who came to Earth as a seed, stole the body of 3-year-old Anastasia and has been living as her ever since.

Venture capital firms have also been impacted by the downturn, leading to a decrease in the number of funds being closed.

In my memories of the Scottish hospital, the sky is always blue, though I know that can’t be completely accurate. Summer was waning, and as my friends and I had already experienced, Edinburgh was prone to unpredictable storms. Yet, I can’t think of a single moment of rain in the two weeks I lay in bed. My morphine-soaked haze only allowed glimpses and fragments: the bracing air coming in from an open window, the rough comfort of my mother’s fingers wiping my fever-moist brow, my father’s tears.

What little we know about Denisovans is based on a handful of fragmented fossil remains unearthed in Siberia’s Denisova Cave and China’s Tibetan Plateau. A new analysis, however, adds another piece to the Denisovan puzzle. In a study published today in the journal Science, a team of researche

Milk Kanban by Pawel Brodzinski When people say Kanban, they tend to think of a specific set of practices. Whiteboards & sticky notes (both almost universally virtual). Tasks moving through columns that represent workflow. Every now and then, WIP limits even. As often as we do it with other things, it reduces a broader principle to a set of oversimplified techniques, which, in turn, tend to underdeliver in many contexts. Kanban In its original meaning, Kanban represented a visual signal. The
