Blitzschnell adj.
A favorite term of financial commentators worldwide remarking on Germany’s lightning-fast—blitzschnell—economic recovery. The country’s unexpectedly high sales of luxury cars and precision machinery may save Europe from a double-dip recession.

Dark laser n.
A laser punctuated by ultrafast pulses of darkness. Because dark lasers maintain more precise wavelengths than ordinary pulsed lasers do, they could be ideal for networked communication and distortion-free signal processing in fiber-optic cables.

Sophophora melanogaster n.
The new name of the famous Drosophila melanogaster fruit fly—second only to Homo sapiens as a subject of genetic research. Despite taxonomic evidence that the fly doesn’t belong to the Drosophila genus after all, some sentimental geneticists insist on calling it by its old name.
