I searched out the meaning of the contraction several months ago, but this was a bit more informative. The solar time versus the time on the clock are indeed going to vary depending on the season. Thought a few goats might appreciate this tidbit. An oft-used contraction and I've gone the vast majority of my life without knowing what it's short for.

This week, the DHS awarded terrorism and misinformation researchers a $699,763 grant to investigate the ways extremism can spread through online gaming communities.

A venture capital firm funded by the CIA has officially placed its bets on bringing back extinct species like the woolly mammoth and the thylacine, according to a public portfolio released this month and spotted by The Intercept.

The company is called In-Q-Tel, and its mission (according to its website) is to invest in technologies that bolster the United States’ national security. In-Q-Tel is over 20 years old, but only now have its taxpayer dollars been directed towards the genetically-engineered resurrection of extinct animals, or de-extinction.
