Observatory: Oldest Known Pottery Found in China
Pottery shards found in a cave are 2,000 to 3,000 years older than examples found elsewhere, and probably came from simple concave vessels used for cooking food, archaeologists say.

Google Drive App Comes to iOS, But Features Limited
Two months after releasing Drive, Google has unveiled apps to access its integrated cloud storage service via Apple's iOS devices and its own Chrome Platform.Drive is about "making it really easy to live life in the cloud and that means making all your files available on all your devices, anywhere," said Google Drive's product manager, Clay Bayor, at Google's I/O 2012 developer conference at Moscone Center in San Francisco. "We want it to be available on every platform."
Optical Recognition The Drive app, available only for devices running iOS 5, allows users to access documents, photos and other media and sort through them. The system uses optical character and image recognition to make files or even photos accessible even if they are not sorted by category. Bayor demonstrated how to easily access scanned receipts or photos by keywords.
The app also enables iPad or iPhone or iPod Touch users to save documents for later viewing and share them.
However, files cannot be uploaded from iOS devices via the app, or deleted, nor can you create new Google Drive files, making it an essentially read-only service. iOS users can use the Safari browser, however, to access drive.google.com and use the other features.
"[The issue of] documents stored on Google Drive being only read-only is an important one," said Charles King, principal analyst at Pund-IT.
'Crippled Service' "That makes Drive a somewhat crippled 'service' to begin with but also opens opportunities for developers to come up with fixes for that and other likely shortcomings or special needs," King told us.
"At this point, I doubt the issue will have a serious impact on Google Drive's chances as a cloud service for Apple customers. But that could change if this sort of issue remains unresolved."
Asked for comment, a Google spokesman told us: "Different platforms have different requirements, and we're excited a...

A new source of maize hybrid vigor
Scientists think they may have discovered a new source of heterosis, or hybrid vigor, in maize. They have been looking at small RNAs, a class of double-stranded RNA molecules that are 20 to 25 nucleotides in length.

22:46Today's senior citizens are reporting fewer visual impairment problems than their counterparts from a generation ago, according to a new study. Improved techniques for cataract surgery and a reduction in the prevalence of macular degeneration may be the driving forces behind this change, the researchers said.

22:44An organism's ability to make new antibodies is of central importance in the fight against pathogens. In case of severe infections, the speed with which an immune response proceeds could mean the difference between life and death. Scientists have now found out how the division of B cells contributes to a fast immune defense.

22:43For the first time comparable migration data is available for almost every country of the world. To date, records were incompatible between nations and especially by gender and age, nonexistent. New research for the first time provides a rich migration database by compiling the global flow of millions of emails.

22:24(Phys.org) -- No calls for you. That is the word from a new technology experiment by Ford, for stressed-out drivers who risk accidents by distractions from incoming calls, playing music, and other vehicle infotainment sources. Having to maneuver the vehicle in heavy traffic places demands on focused safe driving. Risks are compounded by distractions when coping with tricky ramp-merging scenarios or blind-spot monitoring or coping with other vehicles that are frequently changing lanes, for example. Ford this week performed a demo of its “Driver Workload Estimator” that will limit phone and text distractions when deciding that the driver’s stress levels call for safety intervention.

22:24Molecular geneticists call big boss proteins that switch on broad developmental or metabolic programs "master regulators," as in master regulators of muscle development or fat metabolism. One such factor, the Activating Transcription Factor 6α (ATF6α) protein, takes charge following a cellular crisis known as endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, which is triggered by the accumulation of misfolded and aggregated proteins.

22:24University of Minnesota engineering researchers are leading an international team that has made a major breakthrough in developing a catalyst used during chemical reactions in the production of gasoline, plastics, biofuels, pharmaceuticals, and other chemicals. The discovery could lead to major efficiencies and cost-savings in these multibillion-dollar industries.

22:24(Phys.org) -- Genetic engineers and genomics researchers should welcome the news from the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) where an international team of scientists has discovered a new and possibly more effective means of editing genomes. This discovery holds potentially big implications for advanced biofuels and therapeutic drugs, as genetically modified microorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi, are expected to play a key role in the green chemistry production of these and other valuable chemical products.

22:24In mammals, most lipids (such as fatty acids and cholesterol) are absorbed into the body via the small intestine. The complexity of the cells and fluids that inhabit this organ make it very difficult to study in a laboratory setting. New research from Carnegie's Steven Farber, James Walters and Jennifer Anderson reveals a technique that allows scientists to watch lipid metabolism in live zebrafish. This method enabled them to describe new aspects of lipid absorption that could have broad applications for human health. Their work is published in Chemistry & Biology.
