The researchers believe the absence of energetic trade-offs in the mice may reflect the fact that the mice always had enough food to meet the demands of both activity and reproduction. Rather than forcing the animals to divert resources away from one biological function to support another, the plentiful food supply may have allowed them to eat more while maintaining both athletic performance and reproductive success.>

Apparently they didn't run tests under differing environmental conditions. We don't know if these athletic mice could suffer any disadvantage in the face of a famine or infectious disease.

Unfortunately you're right. Maybe I'm deluding myself but I like to believe that higher education strives to be at least somewhat well rounded. I don't know what the programs are like everywhere but in my undergrad as a science major I also had to take courses from various disciplines(English composition, anthropology, philosophy, art, history, etc).

not particularly fast

Everything I've heard about the ZR1 is generally positive. I was under the impression that it was very competitive with other "super cars" often for substantially less money.

Not from the 90s but around 2007 I think. There was a private torrent tracker called something like UGS-torrents. Where UGS stood for underground sounds. Pretty sure it was based in the UK and it focused on electronic and club music singles being released at the time from a bunch of smaller producers. Unique stuff I'm not even sure what to call the genre to be able to look for it today but a lot of it was adjacent to drum and bass, 2-step, or break beats. Super active forums with members making and sharing DJ mixes. I've been out of the scene for quite a while now but the few times I've searched for any mention of this place I've found nothing. If anyone has any information I'd appreciate it if you could share.
