Because my wife is a biology person (where I am decidely not), I occasionally end up getting introduced (willing or not) to various biology and chemistry related topics. So when the latest issue of New Trail (the University of Alberta alumni magazine) arrived, arrived I saw an article about something called Microbe Cards that I thought she might be interested in.

An Associated Press article in today's Post and Courier grabbed my interested today. It's about a new airport passenger screening device that uses scattered x-rays to detect weapons and explosives.
