@ericfarns This is the one thing that could light the match and cause the people to turn violent. If anything happens to her, I could see a civil war breaking out.

@jjfuller72 @cody_kellner Georgia is 2-1 vs ranked teams…

@DanielDiMartino Do they even teach the military anymore about Bolivar's famous quote, "Maldito el soldado que vuelva las armas contra el pueblo?"

[Ryan Summers @DrRyanSummers]

@DanielDiMartino I've been thinking about this a lot. Possibly the biggest difference between now and 2002 is the military. In 2002, the generals were willing to stand up to Chavez. Now, there have been over 20 years of military conditioning/training/culling to follow Chavez/Maduro explicitly.

[Ryan Summers @DrRyanSummers]

@ianmiles Not quite accurate. She said they have received results from 84% of the ballots. Around 30% of those 84% are votes for Maduro, most of the others are for Gonzalez.

@tj_smith246 @stevenAsh_15 @nate_oats As a USU grad living in Tuscaloosa, I could get behind this (unless he decides to stay in Logan with whomever they hire as a coach).

[Ryan Summers @DrRyanSummers]

@jeffborzello Technically, it's USU's 3rd Q1 win of the season. Both New Mexico and Nevada were top 30 NET when they lost in Logan, but both have fallen to Q2 wins now. Will be interesting to see if Boise drops below 30.

Congratulations to Ian Brow for receiving the top award at the University of Alabama Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity Conference! Ian is a sophomore @UAChBE student who has done some excellent work in the research lab.

[Ryan Summers @DrRyanSummers]

Very proud of Ian! He has done an excellent job in the lab, and I'm lucky I get to work with him.

[Randall Research Scholars @UA_RRSP]

UA RRSP sophomore and Chemical/Biological Engineering major Ian Brown received the top award at URCA across all four categories (a perfect score from all judges). His advisor is Dr. Ryan Summers

Good job Ian!

Wondering about GMOs? This video discusses their potential benefit.

[Kite & Key Media @kiteandkeymedia]

Creeped out by GMO food? You’re not alone. A majority of Americans don’t think they’re safe to eat. One group, however, begs to differ: scientists.

So, what do they know that we don’t? Our new video explains.
