A teacher accused of allegedly kissing and touching a student admitted that he drank “excessive amounts of alcohol” on the incriminated night. Ashley McConnell, 34, said she visited several bars and ordered two drinks at once, as well as shots during the night in Thurso, Caithness, with friends in March 2018. The physics teacher who …
Researchers have found that dangerous viruses can remain infectious for up to three days in fresh water when traced to plastic. Enteric viruses that cause diarrhea and stomach upset, such as rotavirus, have been found to survive in water by attaching to microplastics, tiny particles less than 5 mm in length. They remain infectious, researchers …

Greenhouse gas emissions in Australia increased in 2021 as the country lifted the Covid-19 lock without taking significant steps to maintain the decline in carbon pollution seen during the pandemic. National emissions rose 0.8% – 4.1 million tons of carbon dioxide – in the last full year of the federal coalition government, according to government …
The National Testing Agency (NTA) closed the first and second shifts of the third day of the JEE Main 2022 exam on June 25, and experts analyzed the exam to be easy to intermediate, with physics being the simplest of all sections. In the Chemistry section, the experts analyzed that the exam was based mainly …
I I deliberately don’t avoid organic foods or markets, but I don’t look for them either. Claims that organic foods taste better or are more nutritious are not substantiated and certainly do not justify much higher prices. Mostly I am discouraged by the claim that organic food is pesticide-free, safer and more environmentally friendly. These …
The new Australian Minister of the Environment, Tanya Plibersek, was enthusiastically welcomed to the UN Oceanic Conference in Lisbon after identifying five new blue carbon projects and declaring that “under the new Australian government, the environment is back – in the foreground and center”.

Our study analyzed the genetic diversity of 95 cultivars and medlar strains collected from around the world. Based on an analysis of the population structure of 19 Chinese cultivars and strains of RAD-Seq medlar, the province of Hubei in China was proposed as the center of origin of medlar cultivation.6. However, the authors did not …
