"Scientific research is in danger. Scientists need to be vocal, visible & direct in its defense... Finding places to speak to a wider audience, holding open discussion sessions with your community... can help protect research & the good that comes from it." www.americanscientist.org/article/%E2%...

This list of Sumerian words, like a very ancient dictionary, dates to ~2300 BCE from the ancient city of Ebla. Remarkably, one of the words listed is sha-zu, which means “midwife” (“one who knows the inside”). A midwife in a 4,300-year-old clay tablet cdli.mpiwg-berlin.mpg.de/artifacts/24...
