Meadows, currently second in the 800m rankings, is slightly slower on paper than Russian Yevgeniya Zinurova but demonstrated her speed last weekend by breaking Kelly Holmes' UK record with a time of one minute 59.11 seconds.
But a grassroots project called the Bioweathermap was launched a year ago to discover and track the worldwide movements of these organisms using high-speed DNA sequencing of the biological residue on paper currency, one of the most oft-handled and well-traveled of objects.
For example, artists, illustrators, or story boarders who appreciate the convenience, speed and spontaneity of loosely sketching their ideas on paper could profit from the capabilities of Wacom's Inkling digital sketch pen.

(You can find a scientific paper on the Senomyx sweetener work here. ) Synomyx has announced collaborations with Pepsi, Nestle, and Coca-Cola.
The paper, which you can read here, notes that neutrinos at the recorded energies that were travelling faster than the speed of light should should be radiating particles as the neutrinos were travelling.
