Technically that's the gene expression changing, as opposed to the gene itself changing. But yeah, not good potentially

Massachusetts Crime Lab Ex-Chemist Annie Dookhan Gets 3-5 Years

It suggests that the defence counsel for each and every one of those 349 convicted on her evidence was not doing their jobs.

The war on poor people drugs, folks.

That's fucking crazy?

The US penal system is a cesspit of corruption and self-interest.

There's another person in that lab that's supposedly messed with even more cases...

Amazon trying out drone deliveries. May not catch on in certain parts of the world. Like Norn Ire, where the peelers use them ;)

Every single one will get robbed.

Worth at least £5k

its a publicity stunt. They aren't going to use drones. Get their name in the paper before christmas.

Besides only being able to deliver a sandwich to a road. They will surely get picked off en route in the badlands. (Hertfordshire etc)

Which just serves to give the bastards an excuse for putting a premium on a St. Albans delivery.

This is better than any Amazon stunt..

I guess at some point the change becomes "hardcoded". More research needed....

However, age of your granddad when he had kids influences longevity of the grandkids.
Is that correlation or causation?

With the diet of a woman during pregnancy, there is a direct causal link to, among other things, life expectancy of the grandchild.

How this variable be accounted for?
