American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) A new estimate of the genetic mutation rate in four wild species of baleen whales suggests that these rates are higher than previous estimates, with some interesting implications for calculations of past whale abundance and low cancer rates. For instance, the new mutation rate determined by Marcos Suárez-Menéndez and colleagues reduces estimates of abundance in pre-exploitation whale populations by 86%, which has implications for population-rebuilding goals of whale conservation programs.

KUALA LUMPUR (Sept 9): The 12th Malaysia Plan (12MP) Mid-Term Review (MTR), which will be tabled by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim next Monday (Sept 11), encompasses 17 policy shifts or radical approaches, in line with the current economic situation. Economy Minister Rafizi Ramli said the policy transitions will provide a way out from issues which arose during the 10MP and the 11MP. 'We always talk about the country being ‘trapped', such as the weakening economy, low [ringgit] value and dependency on foreign labour - these issues keep re-emerging and the policies which were previously implemented were not radical enough, in my opinion.

A truly solid, highly conductive electrolyte has been designed, bringing solid-state lithium batteries within reach. Batteries store energy chemically and rely on the movement of charged ions between a cathode and an anode, through an electrolyte. For most of battery history, this electrolyte has been a liquid, although research has long sought a solid alternative. Polyethylene oxide (PEO)-based solid polymer electrolytes were developed in the 1970s, and have many attractive properties, including safety.
