Five years on, why the battle over Covid’s origins rages on

Was it a bat? The market? A lab leak? Tom Whipple examines why the pandemic continues to divide scientists and explains what it will take for the world to settle on definitive answers

Spoiler - we don't have any yet

It is satisfying to be able to read a journalist's take on a scientific (and human) issue that shows a depth and breadth of research.

Neue PC-Game-Rezi:

Das Kampfsystem bietet eine tolle Mischung aus wilden Kombinationen gegen tausende Soldat·innen und tieferen 1-gegen-1-Duellen mit stärkeren Gegner·innen. Mit »Dynasty Warriors: Origins« gelingt Omega Force ein beeindruckender Neustart der Serie. Die überarbeitete Grafik, die Rückkehr zu level-basierten Schlachtfeldern und die verbesserten Kampf-Mechaniken motivieren bis zur letzten Spielstunde.

Dynasty Warriors: Origins

fantasyguide.de/dynasty-warrio

Das Logo-Bild des PC-Spiels Dynasty Warriors: Origins zeigt hinter der Titelei ein runde, chinesisch wirkende Zeichnung mit drei sich jagenden Drachen. Dahinter sind heranreitende Personen mit Rüstungen und erhobenen Schwertern zu sehen. Rechts vorne steht eine Person mit dem Rücken zu uns. Sie hat eine bestickte Kleidung an und eine lange, schmale Klinge auf dem Rücken.

What Are the #Origins of the #Money We Use Today?

counterpunch.org/2025/03/07/wh

CounterPunch.org · What Are the Origins of the Money We Use Today?The late 19th century saw economists, mainly German and Austrian, create a mythology of money’s origins that is still repeated in today’s textbooks. Money is said to have originated as just another commodity being bartered, with metal preferred because it is nonperishable (and hence amenable to being saved), supposedly standardized (despite fraud if not minted in temples), and thought to be easily divisible—as if silver could have been used for small marketplace exchanges, which was unrealistic given the rough character of ancient scales for weights of a few grams.

@muiren We watched Origins last night, excellent, just as we’d expected of Ava DuVernay, and are glad to see our local public library has Isabel Wilkerson’s Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents in multiple formats, including large print, sound recording, and book adaptation for young adults. montereylibrary.org/cgi-bin/ko

DVD cover for “Origin,” written and directed by Ava DuVernay; “a brilliant cinematic masterpiece” (wrote Dana Feldman, Forbes) starring Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor. The art is a profile of the face of a Black woman, includlng her upper body; her image is part of a jigsaw puzzle; the back of her head is not visible, and some puzzle pieces are placed on her head and shoulder.

"In The Descent of Man (1871), Charles Darwin had predicted that the roots of the human lineage lay in Africa. Although Australopithecus had its antecedents, Dart’s discovery was the start of a century-long journey of discovery that has confirmed Darwin’s prediction."
