   For a writer so disparaging about magic, Chaucer’s understanding of occult practice seems to have been considerable. In the Squire’s Tale, magic objects drive the (truncated) plot. For the Canon’s Yeoman’s Tale, Chaucer consulted alchemical works to construct his story. And in the Franklin’s Tale, Chaucer’s vivid depictions of illusions reflect his broad knowledge of magical practice. These tales include learned references to alchemy, astral prayer, astrology (regarded, to some extent, as a science in Chaucer’s day), automata, and clerical magic, as are explored here. Read less

   A recent improved determination of the fine structure constant, α ¼ 1=137.035999046(27), leads to a ∼2.4σ negative discrepancy between the measured electron anomalous magnetic moment and the standard model prediction. That situation is to be compared with the muon anomalous magnetic moment where a positive ∼3.7σ discrepancy has existed for some time. A single scalar solution to both anomalies is shown to be possible if the two-loop electron Barr-Zee diagrams dominate the scalar one-loop electron anomaly effect and the scalar couplings to the electron and two photons are relatively large. We also briefly discuss the implications of that scenario. Read less

   The neutral lipids diacylglycerols (DAGs) are involved in a plethora of metabolic pathways. They function as components of cellular membranes, as building blocks for glycero(phospho)lipids, and as lipid second messengers. Considering their central role in multiple metabolic processes and signaling pathways, cellular DAG levels require a tight regulation to ensure a constant and controlled availability. Interestingly, DAG species are versatile in their chemical structure. Besides the different fatty acid species esterified to the glycerol backbone, DAGs can occur in three different stereo/regioisoforms, each with unique biological properties. Recent scientific advances have revealed that DAG metabolizing enzymes generate and distinguish different DAG isoforms, and that only one DAG isoform holds signaling properties. Herein, we review the current knowledge of DAG stereochemistry and their impact on cellular metabolism and signaling. Further, we describe intracellular DAG turnover and its stereochemistry in a 3-pool model to illustrate the spatial and stereochemical separation and hereby the diversity of cellular DAG metabolism.
