First time vertebrates have been found to produce viable offspring through parthenogenesis.

Not quite. There are quite a few examples of parthenogenesis in vertebrates.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parthenogenesis#Reptiles  read from there onward

Evidence of parthenogenesis in sawfish.

First time vertebrates have been found to produce viable offspring through parthenogenesis.

What about the lesbian lizards? The current article is incorrect in it's claim.

Also in the science news--

Scientists create neural composite network of 4 adult rat brains, use it to run some simulations.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

We are doomed. It's just that whatever is going to kill us all just happens to be, from a scientific standpoint, pretty frickin' awesome.

We've apparently done that with monkeys, too. Turns out three heads actually are better than one when it comes to running (simulated, iirc) cybernetic arms.

Better watch out plutonians. With this new satellite imagery we'll be able to precisely target your industrial infrastructure thus ensuring you can never make war on our peaceful planet!
