"The Royal Society's Lost Women Scientists" appeared a few days ago in The Guardian; I thought it worth reposting. I've heard of Margaret Cavendish and Mary Somerville, but I don't recall hearing of Caroline Herschel, for instance.

Not much time to post, but two items of interest, both from the BBC news website:

'Sea monster' whale fossil unearthed

France's new medieval castle
I haven't even had time to watch the video at the latter yet.

I'm a bit busy. I ask your pardon in advance if I should possibly be a day or two late posting the next installment of my Primeval repost.
