Move Over, ‘Tomb Raider’: Here Are 11 Pioneering Women Archaeologists
Margaret Murray (1863-1963)British archaeologist and scholar Margaret Murray emerged in the late 19th century as a formidable figure in the developing specialty of Egyptology. In 1899 she became the first female lecturer in archaeology in the U.K., teaching at the University College London, and she led excavations in Malta, Menorca and Palestine, according to a study published in 2013 in the journal Archaeology International.

They then simulated using the material in a 3D printer by extruding it in layers through a syringe. They compared the results with conventional geopolymers. “It performed quite well,” says Anna-Lena Kjøniksen, a materials scientist at Østfold University College and coauthor of the study. “It seemed to give the best overall results, especially when it came to avoiding crack formation.” … [Read more...] about On the Moon, astronaut pee will be a hot commodity
160,000 Nintendo accounts were compromised—including one of ours [Updated]
All of this assumes that this round of Nintendo account hijackers either harvested usernames and their matching passwords (which is bad) or found a way to log in to users' accounts without any passwords attached (which is much worse). The potential harm only gets worse if the leak includes payment credentials or home addresses and phone numbers—but we're still waiting to hear whether those leaked.
