@StarJo – Sometimes they fall out on their own, but sometimes they have to be pulled. I've had friends who saw puppy teeth inside the water bowl or food dish, while others had to take theirs to the vet and have them yanked out.
I had a puppy whose two sharpest teeth in the front remained, and the permanent teeth were growing in right alongside them. It was weird to see him with two sets of sharp teeth, and it made him look fierce!
As cool as it looked, I knew that it wasn't good for him, so I took him to the vet. She put him under and pulled the puppy teeth out.
I had some numbing gel to put on his gums afterward to help him recover. I also had some antibiotics to prevent infection.

By Helen Stoilas. News, Issue 200, March 2009Published online: 18 February 2009
NEW YORK. The National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and the Smithsonian Institution have secured a small allotment of federal funding as part of the $787bn American Recovery and Reinvestment Act signed by President Obama on 17 February, following fears that arts groups would be completely excluded from the stimulus package. A committee comprising members of both houses of Congress reached an agreement on the final spending bill, which was notably smaller than the versions passed by either the House or the Senate, with a number of cuts made to education and health programmes to secure the sliver of Republican support needed (three votes) to pass the bill. The NEA will receive $50m to distribute to non-profit arts organisations while the Smithsonian gets $25m to repair its facilities.
See also:
Although the original bill, which was passed by the House of Representatives, contained $50m for the National Endowment of the Arts, the version that went through the Senate had completely removed such funding. It also included an amendment by Oklahoma Senator Tom Coburn that would prevent museums, theatres and art centres from receiving any stimulus money by grouping them with other projects considered "wasteful and non-stimulative" such as casinos and highway beautification. Senator Coburn's amendment was passed by the Senate and is still in the final bill, but the mention of museums, theatres and art centres was removed and now only excludes "any casino or other gambling establishment, aquarium, zoo, golf course, or swimming pool".When the House voted on the final bill, Democratic Congressman David Obey, who sponsored the bill, explained why he thought it was important to retain NEA funding in the stimulus package: "There are five million people who work in the arts industry. And right now they have 12.5% unemployment—or are you suggesting that somehow if you work in that field, it isn't real when you lose your job, your mortgage or your health insurance? We're trying to treat people who work in the arts the same way as anybody else." Following the House's passing of the final bill, the NEA released a statement describing its plans for the stimulus money. According to this, the agency "will make awards that result in job retention… For example, by awarding grants to arts education programmes, the NEA can help grantees employ teaching artists and administrators. Through grants to art festivals, the NEA can help the festival employ staff to manage the event and artists to perform or exhibit there. By funding new productions, the NEA can help an arts organisation provide work for carpenters, electricians, caterers, ushers, custodians, lighting designers, seamstresses, parking attendants and others as well as artists." Meanwhile, the Smithsonian's funding was cut down from $150m in the House's original version of the bill to $25m in the final package. A spokeswoman for the Institution said: "We're delighted that the museum has received this funding. The Smithsonian certainly has infrastructural needs that we have every year and this will help in addressing those. We have a list of projects that need funding and we're going to figure out which ones need the most urgent attention. We're also going to look at which will help to create new jobs as that is the point of the whole stimulus package."Some of the most vocal critics of the arts receiving stimulus funds came from senior Republicans such as Arizona Senator John McCain, who singled out funds allotted to the NEA and the Smithsonian Institution as among the "hundreds of millions of dollars in unnecessary spending that will not do anything to stimulate the economy". He went on to ask "how giving tens of millions of dollars to the National Endowment of the Arts or the Smithsonian Museum will reverse the devastating effects of the economic crisis?" In response to the threat to arts funding, advocacy groups such as Americans for the Arts and the American Association of Museums lobbied senators to oppose the bill, citing the economic benefits of supporting cultural organisations.

Christmas Memories LyricsArtist: AlabamaAlbum: Alabama Christmas There's a blanket of snow coverin' up the old road to the house where I was raised Through the window I see the lights on the tree and a glow from the old fireplace Though it all looks the same so much has changed from the way it used to be Christmas memories of happy years gone by They come back to me and keep me warm inside Still those Christmas memories make me cry Now the stockings are filled; the house is still and the kids are dreamin' away There's that old easy chair, me and Daddy sat there waitin' for Santa's sleigh Now Daddy's gone but we carry on 'cause the little ones will need... Christmas memories of happy years gone by They come back to me and keep me warm inside Oh they mean so much to me Those Christmas memories make me cry

Hi All, I would like to know if anyone has tried the role transition between primary and the physical standby in a real production environment. We have a situation to switch the roles for couple of days. The database size is about one terabyte, version 10.2.0.3 64-bit on Solaris 8. I will be setting up a test bed this coming week. Any comments, advices, and suggestions are most welcome. Regards, Senthil.

Step 1: Ingredients
1 Cup of Water
3 Cups of Sugar (not powdered, but then again I haven't tried it.)
1 Wooden Skewer (also known as a brochette in the cooking world.)
If you don't have one, a piece of string and a paper clip will work.
1 Clothespin (I needed two because my glass had a wider rim than I expected)
If you don't have a clothespin, a paper clip will work. Or if you're using a string then a toothpick would work.
1 Pan or Pot, and a stove
Fork or Wooden Spoon
1 Tall glass (A regular dinner glass will work, but do not use plastic or paper)
Those are all the ingredients you really need. I used some other things as well, but that is because I had done it once before and wanted to try some new things.
1 Cookie sheet
2 Tablespoons of Vanilla
Aluminium Foil

I love this! I made this into a science fair project. I recorded if the different type of water affected the growth of rock candy. I won 2nd place!
Reading back through these comments 4 years later and this reply still made me laugh, and I'm in class right now lol
Thanks! It was my first instructable so I wanted to go all out. I hope to be coming up with more soon!
The amount depends on how strong you want the flavor. If it comes in a dropper I would use about 5-10 drops, then adjust to your liking.
The hotter the mixture is, the more sugar that is allowed to dissolve. You can also try coating the wooden skewer or string with sugar prior to dipping it down into the liquid. Sorry, but metal doesn't work as well because of it's physical properties. Hope it worked out for you :)
I remember making rock candy like this when I was a child, but this instructable was posted in 2010. Hope you enjoy it!
how long does it take to make these. me and my sister are making them today and we would like to know
you can break it up and eat the crystals

Hi any ideas my air bag light is on constant, don't get any flashing I start the car and about 7 seconds after started the airbag light comes on, was off for few days then wile driving today it came back on, I read someone saying bout dodgie wires but I'm not sure what wires to be checking, any help would be appreciated
April 5, 2012, 5:07 pm
Update; believe this is being caused from the wire under driver chair that connect to the seatbelt restraint if I wiggle it and push the clip it goes off after turning ignition on and off,.
April 5, 2012, 6:13 pm
Nail on the head i reckon, the cable's loose on the pre-tensioner connector then.
If you're going to repair it yourself i recommend disconnecting the battery and leaving for about 30 minutes for static to discharge or you run the risk of setting off the tensioners and airbags.
April 5, 2012, 6:47 pm
A common fault on many cars.
Unplug and then reconnect the plug under the seat. Then stick a small cable tie around the plug and pull it tight to stop it working loose again.

7:00 - 8:00 am Supervised the feeding and dressing of Numbers 1-4, sent Number 1 & 2 to elementary school on bus, ran a load of laundry, unloaded the dishwasher, packed 2 lunches, determined if Number 4 was well enough to go to school (YES!), showered and appropriately dressed myself for a day full of miscelanny.
9:15 - 9:30 am Wrangled Number 3 & 4 into shoes and the car, answered 421 questions, then dropped off at preschool
9:35 - 10:30 am Attended very important mental health "meeting" with some really fabulous friends at my very favorite coffee shop
10:45 - 11:00 am Attended very important actual meeting about "Motherhood Ain't for Sissies" t-shirts. Did you order yours yet?!?
11:15 - 12:15 pm Enjoyed an uninterrupted hour alone for lunch, reading and email checking
12:30 - 2:00 pm Volunteered for Career Day activities at the elementary school. Well, I did work AT an architecture firm for 9 years. Close enough, right?
2:01 - 2:55 pm Attended a very important meeting at elementary school (I do a helluva grown-up impersonation.)
3:00 pm Preschool pickup, toddler wrangling, nose wiping, etc.
3:20 - 4:00 pm Made brownies for upcoming teachers' luncheon at elementary school
4:15 pm Welcomed home Number 1 and 2 from school, asked all the pertinent questions, looked at all the respective papers
5:00 pm Fed the whole crew. We all know how dinner works around here!
6:00 pm Wished babysitter "Good luck"
6:30 pm Attended very important meeting with St. Joel at the middle school and tried really hard to act like it was perfectly logical that Number 1 is going to middle school next year
8:30 - 10:00 pm Got debriefing from the babysitter, prodded Number 1 to finish homework, put off Number 2's homework 'til AM, sent Numbers 1-4 to bed, loaded and started the dishwasher, started a load of laundry, enjoyed previously rescheduled 5PM cocktail, finished writing this post, went to bed and caught up on a little trashy TV.
What are you juggling?

What is Sufism Dervish what different are. Are they like christan monks and hermit was goals what pratices to make acceped by some of Muslim community and rejected by others?
PS do take vows?
In other words: Sufis strive to actively better themselves as human beings, by devoting most of their lives to god. And they teach others how to do that.Originally Posted by http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sufism
It depends on the tariqa the mureed (seeker) joins, but there are no vows in the Christian sense that I can think of. The Muqadim or Master usually demands allegiance to him and the tariqa from the mureeds, so you could say that is a type of vow.
It is difficult to say really what Sufism is. Most Muslims on one level or the other practice Sufism, and indeed, even the most strict 'sola-scriptura' sects such as modern day Saudi Hanbalism (so-called Wahhabism) admits what it calls 'legitimate Sufism (Ta'sawuf.) So Sufism is already mainstream and quite populist. It is mostly expressed through invocation (called Dhikr and recommended by all orthodox scholars) but it also manifests through devotional music, the ziyarat or visitation of the graves of saints, and trance dances...etc. The latter expressions are not looked upon favourably by certain sections of Muslim society (and this is not to say that all Sufi tariqas accept them - in fact, the majority of Sufi groups are very orthodox) so you hear often criticisms of Sufi decadence and corruption from these quarters. Still, it is difficult to reify what is a Sufi - most Muslim scholars, across the sects, adopted what could be deemed as Sufi practices, and much of what we know today as the Muslim world was largely converted by the work of tariqas and Sufi groups.
The Derawish Sufis you refer to are not particularly special really - I cant think of any major differences between them and say the Chistis, the Rifa'is, Darqawis, Tayjanis...etc.
"Praise be to God who ordained that he who
speaks with pride about Al-Andalus may do
so without fear and as boldly as he likes
nor meet any person, who may contradict him"
Al-Shunduqi "Risala fi fadl al-Andalus"
I thinking of making Sufi mod for CK2 so figure I should to history forum seem what scholars pop up?

Im doing an all grain batch today and I'm using safael 05. is it necessary to hydrate the dry yeast before pitching? Does it make a big difference in the grand scheme of things?
Is it that big of a PITA to rehydrate yeast? I would follow the manufacturer's directions. They suggest rehydration for a reason.
Yup, get the yeast ready for their work. Its a small amount of work compared to getting a starter completed for liquid yeast (and the biggest advantage of dry yeast IMO). Both are highly advisable in my book.
Just wanted to be sure, some people tell me just to open and pour it in. While others swear by hydrating. There are no directions on the pack so i assume room temp water about 70 degrees is ok?
Room temp water is fine, just make sure it's been boiled first. Just pitching then dry can mean a loss of half your population.
If the water is bottled/purrified water does it still need to be boiled?
my $.02... i've done both rehydrating and pitching dry right on the froth on the top of the wort after aerating. i've not seen any difference in lag times, attenuation or flavor either way. mind you, i always make sure to pitch at least the recommended cell count and i ferment at the low end of the yeasts temp range. i'm not making a statement either way, as i do rehydrate sometimes, and not others, i'm just saying that in the scheme of things i think rehydrating or not rehydrating is not a real issue as long as you aerate properly, pitch enough healthy yeast, and ferment at proper temps.
A while back there was a bad batch of dry yeast. Rehydrating prior to pitching showed a problem with the yeast and prevented a future ferment problem. So if nothing else I rehydrate to check viability.
It should sink to the bottem after 15 but you may have to stir the rest on top, i just use my thermometer i have sitting in it already then put the sirran wrap back over the cup. Let it sit another 15 then Pitch or if im not ready i add a little wort a little higher temp than i cool it too,let it cool more than strain,aerate then pitch.You may see your hydrated yeast it somewhat frothy on top but not much , and it should smell like yeast,not anything off- as far as hydrating and not adding wort to it. My lag times have been cut in half from switching to hydrating.

Re: To Wed, or Not To Wed?
I think possibly this comes at the wrong moment--between Mary Sue and Betrothed and Squicky Poetry, we've got a lot of fics in the works that are romantic or at least dealing with love and lust. So this might become more of an option a bit later, when the romance bug has died down a bit.
I think it might also need some more structure to it. Is this going to be a metafic, à la If Women had Ruled Middle-earth or Real Men Wear Jewelry?
Or is it supposed to occur within a canonical setting, i.e., the only character to talk to would be contemporary figures who were friends and family?
If we get that worked out, then there's the question of trying to make give this a bit more form--something to make it stand out from the run of the mill sour-romance fics. Some suggestions:
What about borrowing an idea from Citizen Kane? You have four vignette scenes, all set in one location (kitchen, bedroom, kids' room, the apple tree, where ever is logical for the characters in question), to trace the decline of the relationship.
Or you could have one of the wronged characters telling his or her story to a group of children--happily ever after... but not. Do it in a way that the character distills the essence of what went wrong and casts it in a simplified form (names changed, of course, or using stereotyped roles, like "the Princess" and "the Handsome Knight") to illustrate a lesson.
Re: To Wed, or Not To Wed?
Re: To Wed, or Not To Wed?
Keep working on it. For future info, there's also Meg, with the Nuzgul Hutch discussion. If you're having trouble framing an idea, she's willing to help out as well, especially if you mean to put the idea in the Hutch.

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- SandRidge Energy (SD - Get Report) rose on high volume Thursday, its fourth consecutive day of gains, after Jim Cramer spoke bullishly about the stock on CNBC's Mad Money on Wednesday evening.
The stock rose more than 4.25% to a high of $6.85 for the day; SandRidge holds a one-year high of $6.96. More than 25.6 million shares changed hands on Thursday, well above the average volume of 8,270,660.
Cramer said on the show that Wall Street seems to hate the stock even though the oil and natural gas exploration company's turnaround is in plain sight.
"The former CEO practically ran the company into the ground. Because of mismanagement and other factors, shares tumbled from $67 in 2008 to the single digits. And the stock never really bounced back," Cramer said. He added "because SandRidge is so hated by Wall Street, the analysts can't see the incredible turnaround happening in front of their faces." Cramer went on to note "since new CEO James Bennett took over, SandRidge has delivered three consecutive quarters where the company beat the estimates and raised guidance." Furthermore, SandRidge is one of Cramer's "Top Stock Picks" on TheStreet on Thursday. STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more. ---------- Separately, TheStreet Ratings team rates SANDRIDGE ENERGY INC as a "hold" with a ratings score of C. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate SANDRIDGE ENERGY INC (SD) a HOLD. The primary factors that have impacted our rating are mixed - some indicating strength, some showing weaknesses, with little evidence to justify the expectation of either a positive or negative performance for this stock relative to most other stocks. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its solid stock price performance, increase in net income and good cash flow from operations. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including disappointing return on equity and generally higher debt management risk." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels industry. The net income increased by 106.6% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from -$287.90 million to $19.08 million.
- Compared to where it was a year ago today, the stock is now trading at a higher level, reflecting both the market's overall trend during that period and the fact that the company's earnings growth has been robust. Despite the fact that it has already risen in the past year, there is currently no conclusive evidence that warrants the purchase or sale of this stock.
- SANDRIDGE ENERGY INC reported significant earnings per share improvement in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. But, we feel it is poised for EPS growth in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, SANDRIDGE ENERGY INC reported poor results of -$1.27 versus -$0.14 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($0.09 versus -$1.27).
- Currently the debt-to-equity ratio of 1.75 is quite high overall and when compared to the industry average, suggesting that the current management of debt levels should be re-evaluated. Even though the debt-to-equity ratio is weak, SD's quick ratio is somewhat strong at 1.25, demonstrating the ability to handle short-term liquidity needs.
- Return on equity has greatly decreased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of major weakness within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels industry and the overall market, SANDRIDGE ENERGY INC's return on equity significantly trails that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.

Story Pick: Project Empowerment
For months, the jobless rate has hovered just below 10 percent. The nation has set new records for the number of people out of work for 6 months or longer. And even though the recession technically ended in June 2009, the recovery still feels like a misnomer.
Against this backdrop, Washington Post reporter Theresa Vargas spent six months following a class of students in the District's most expensive job training program, Project Empowerment.
The time she spent with them lends the two stories that ran this week a depth that is often lacking in stories about job training programs. The real question such stories rarely answer is why does one person make it and another doesn't? It's hard to really know unless you know the individuals involved and Vargas is able to go deep into the lives of the three people and offer a sense of where they are coming from. The trio are Antoine "Ali" Moore, who went to prison as a teenager and came out an adult; Patrice Taylor, a single mother of two known to throw a punch; and Johnny Perkins, who is trying to start over at 55, when most men are thinking about retirement.
Writing about three people at once is not an easy task, but Vargas pulls it off by drawing such distinct portraits of each. Here she writes about Taylor:
Patrice Taylor has spent her past few birthdays in court. At 25, she faced an assault charge after she punched a man in the face at a club. At 26, she was at the courthouse for a custody hearing that split her family. This year, she expects to spend her 27th there, too, fighting charges that she violated a civil protection order.For most of Taylor's life, the legal system - with its "snobby" lawyers and "crooked" cops - has been a scary force with the ability to ruin your day or wreck your future. But now, two weeks after graduating from the Project Empowerment job-training program, Taylor is walking into the nerve center of that institution, a marble-walled building at Judiciary Square, passionately hoping for a chance to work for the same system she believes hasn't worked for her.
You can find out what happens to Taylor, Perkins, and Moore here.

The 'Teen Mom' alum has finally reached a deal for the adult movie she filmed with porn actor James Deen — and she received a payout in the high six figures! Read on for more details.
Farrah Abraham is certainly making the most out of her sex tape scandal with award-winning porn star James Deen. The former Teen Mom has not only extended her 15 minutes of fame with the porn film — she signed a deal for the nearly $1 million!
Farrah Abraham's Sex Tape — 'Farrah Superstar: Backdoor Teen Mom'
The former MTV star signed the deal with Vivid Entertainment in the high six figures, according to TMZ. She had been in the talks with the adult entertainment company since news of her movie leaked on April 8, and even brought her 4-year-old daughter Sophia and dad Michael Abraham to meet with company co-chairman Steve Hirsch on April 21. Although she said she was talking to other companies, she officially signed with Vivid — and the tape will be realsed in the near future.
Farrah's flick already has a title, according to TMZ — Farrah Superstar: Backdoor Teen Mom. The movie is said to be 70 minutes long, and the official poster includes the tagline "The private tape made public." The 21-year-old is still alleging her sex tape was meant to be a personal video.
Farrah Abraham Disses James Deen
Even though Farrah and James were intimate on screen, the MTV reality star has been speaking out negatively about the 27-year-old adult film star.
"He should really just get out of the porn industry because things have gotten to his head, he disrespects women and his penis is small," Farrah told TMZ.
I guess we'll have to watch the tape and find out for ourselves! What do YOU think of Farrah signing a deal for her sex tape, HollyMoms? Can you believe she's getting nearly $1 million for the tape?

Start working at home with Google! With-out any question its the nicest job I have ever done. last wednesday I got a gorgeous Dodge from having earned $5624 this last 5 weeks.

I don't understand why she is getting publicity! This is what is wrong with celebs. If she isn't doing something worth noting don't give her publicity. She shouldn't be famous for having sex as a kid and having children or having sex as an adult and making porn. She's a nasty human being with no respect so she shouldn't be given any. I like this site so I wish you wouldn't waste time covering this trash.

I dont get it..farrah admits to doing drugs in her book..drops her kid off 24/7 with her parents..waxes her daughters eyebrows, goes out to the bar and gets pics taken of herself making out with dif people, gets a dui and now shes made a Porno. I dont understand why stormy cant see her granddaughter. Whatever she did cant be worse than what farrah has done. I think its disgusting her father and sophia went with her to negotiate the porno. I understand he wants to support his daughter but that is gross! Poor sophia..shes only 4 and her dad is dead. She cant see her grandmother..and farrah,her father and her sister are NUTS! I used to think her mom was crazy but i would be too if i had a daughter that acted like farrah. Sophia is the one who will pay the price for farrahs behavior. She seems to be developmentally delayed.. And she needs speech therapy..she stutters..and i cant understand a word she says! Im pretty sure once she starts school there will be kids whose parents wont want their child playing with sophia cuz her mommy (farrah) is a porn star. I feel sooo bad for poor little sophia. She doesnt have a chance.

Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: Think Big
Search Jim Cramer's "Mad Money" trading recommendations using our exclusive "Mad Money" Stock Screener.
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Investors need to stick with the big themes that are working, Jim Cramer told "Mad Money" viewers Thursday. He unveiled two more macro themes that he said can be bought on any market weakness.
Cramer's first theme: the revolution in American oil and gas. He said this multi-year theme will be a boon for our energy independence, but it will also mean big profits for those companies that use a lot of oil and gas, mainly the chemical and plastics companies.
He said stocks including Dow Chemical (DOW) and PPG (PPG) remain favorites, as does Georgia Gulf (GGC), makers of PVC plastics for everything from piping to windows.
Cramer was also bullish on refiner Valero (VLO) and soon-to-be natural gas exporter, Cheniere Energy (LNG). Cramer's next theme for 2013 was technology, mainly cellphone technology, as every major carrier in the U.S. begins aggressively rolling out their latest 4G networks. Cramer said everyone from SBA Communications (SBAC) to American Tower (AMT) to Broadcom (BRCM), a stock he owns for his charitable trust,Stock Playoffs
Continuing with his "Stock Playoffs" series, Cramer pitted the two top performers in the S&P 500 last year, Sprint Nextel (S) and Pulte Homes (PHM - Get Report), against each other to see which one should be in your portfolio for 2013. Cramer said while he's still a fan of Sprint, there's no way the stock will repeat its 300% performance from last year. He said the easy money has already been made with Sprint, now that Softbank has made a significant investment in the company. While Sprint will finally be able to compete with AT&T (T) and Verizon (VZ), the Softbank deal will take time to complete and the competing bid from Dish Network (DISH) for Clearwire (CLWR) will only complicate matters. Meanwhile, Pulte Homes remains one of America's largest homebuilders in what is still the very early innings of a housing recovery. The stock may be at its 52-week high, but that doesn't mean this stock can't soar higher, said Cramer, as home prices continue to rise. Pulte has been aggressively cutting costs and fixing its balance sheet and is now up against very easy comparisons from last year.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

You'll often see tiny sweat bees nectaring rock purslane (Calandrinia grandiflora) in urban gardens. This plant, a native of Chile, brightens landscapes with its pinkish magenta blossoms.
You probably wouldn't wear this color if you were in the federal witness protection program. It shouts "Look at me!"The old saying that "it's so loud it could stop traffic" applies here.
It certainly stops insect traffic. (The lure, though, is the pollen, not the color.)
Last week we watched a tiny female sweat bee (Halictus tripartitus) nectaring the rock purslane.
Then she crawled to the lip of the flower, peered at her surroundings, and took flight.

genomics, genetics, epigenetics, and molecular evolution
What are the forces that drive the evolution of species and genomes? Unlike clonal organisms, sexually reproducing species reproduce by mixing the genetic material from different individuals. This sets the stage for genetic conflict. We are interested in how genetic conflct shapes patterns and processes of evolution at the molecular level. In particular, we are interested in how genetic conflict shapes:
-epigenetic silencing by piRNA and siRNA
-genome evolution and transposable elements
-the molecular evolution of the piRNA machinery
-the mechanisms of gametogenesis
-recombination rates and mutation rates
-transposable element dynamics
-hybrid incompatability
To study these topics, we work with different species of Drosophila, using a variety of approaches which include molecular biology, population genetics, cytogenetics, evolutionary modeling and modern methods of high-throughput sequencing.

Tips On How To Get A Girlfriend
Learning how to get a girlfriend is a lot art and a little science.
There are skills that a guy who wants to get a girlfriend can and should learn. But, there is also a level of creativity and imagination at play as well.
I used to be a master "pick-up artist". I used to go by the moniker Playboy, and am featured in Neil Strauss' book "The Game". I was an expert at meeting women. I knew what to do, and when to do it.
But…this did NOT help me get a girlfriend. Knowing how to get a girlfriend (and a hot girlfriend at that) has as much to do with HOW you live as knowing what to say and how to say it.
(This will even help you get a girlfriend in high school, or even get a girlfriend online, OK?)
What follows are the 3 areas in a man's life that he needs to address in order to give him the BEST chance at getting a girlfriend.
1) How To Get A Girlfriend – Social Skills
It is not mandatory that you develop amazing social skills to get a girlfriend. But, it is important that you become competent and capable in:
Approaching Women
Flirting With Women
Connecting With Women
In other words, you've gotta be able to begin the conversation, build a little sexual tension and attraction, and then connect with her establishing some comfort and trust with you. These three firmly establish you as a romantic option in her mind.
2) How To Get A Girlfriend – Lifestyle
The secret for meeting lots of attractive women, with minimal effort, all who already have a LOT in common with you is…
If you want to quickly double your dating success, this is the skill to work on the most.
How you LIVE directly determines who you meet and how you meet them.
Grow an interesting, meaningful lifestyle and you will naturally attract women who are right for you.
3) How To Get A Girlfriend – Personal Style
Having a stylish, contemporary look is important. An intelligent, reasonable, functional, wardrobe is what I suggest to help you get a girlfriend.
Your "look" impacts a person's first impression of you. Having a stylish contemporary look signals that you're someone who is plugged in culturally, well-socialized, and who pays attention to detail.
How To Get A Girlfriend eBook
Those three areas in life are where you'll need to work to get a girlfriend.
In How To Get A Girlfriend (my ebook), I lead you through a step-by-step process for learning these. It is the book I wish I had when I was single and just getting started. Click here to read more about it and to download your copy:

Light Verse from Rory
Last year, Melinda and I tutored our kids while we all were in Europe on vacation. We visited museums and historical sites and tried to help them appreciate different cultures. I handled the science tutoring, and one of our topics was the physics of light.
Recently my son Rory made light the subject of a poem he wrote as he's learning about the different forms of poetry. He's ten years old and would like to have work published one day. He reads The Gates Notes and asked me to publish his poem on my website. What father could refuse?
Rory's poem is what's known as a diamante, a seven-line poem in the shape of a diamond that begins with one thing and gradually transitions to end with sort of its opposite. You can learn about diamante poetry from a fun family activity developed by the folks at Great Schools, a terrific organization that our foundation has helped support.
And so, here's Rory's poem:

Gillard calls for level heads on ASX bid
PUBLISHED: 01 Nov 2010 00:07:00 | UPDATED: 01 Nov 2010 07:39:48PUBLISHED: 01 Nov 2010 PRINT EDITION: 01 Nov 2010Strength in numbers . . . ASX Ltd believes the takeover will help it fend off looming competition. Photo: Paul Jones
John Kerin and George Liondis
Julia Gillard has called for calm over Singapore Exchange's bid for ASX Ltd after meeting Singaporean Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong amid claims that xenophobia is driving opposition to the deal.
The high-level discussions between the leaders over the proposed takeover came as the government prepares to release new rules this week that will pave the way for rival stock exchanges to set up in competition to ASX, breaking its longstanding monopoly.
The Prime Minister, who met Mr Lee on the sidelines of the East Asia Summit in Hanoi, said both governments had agreed to let the appropriate processes take their course in assessing the deal.
"We both very much agreed whilst there is going to be media interest in these matters and community interest in these matters, there is a clear process to be gone through from the Australian point of view with our Foreign Investment Review Board,'' Ms Gillard told the ABC in Hanoi.
She also took a subtle swipe at the Coalition, urging it not to destroy bipartisan support for foreign investment in Australia.
"I certainly hope that no one would seek to criticise or disturb what have been longstanding and bipartisan arrangements for assessing it through the prism of our national interest,'' she said.
Shadow treasurer Joe Hockey, who met with ASX Ltd executives on Friday, said yesterday the Coalition was seeking more information on the bid.
"I think it's only fair that we receive that information and consider it,'' he said.
"It's a question of whether we get competition, how we get competition; and I'll be interested in what the government has to say about that because ultimately the starting point is Wayne Swan – he has to explain to the Australian people why this is in our national interest.''
The Singapore Exchange's $8.4 billion offer for ASX Ltd, announced last week, has met a wall of political opposition, putting it at risk of being blocked on the floor of Parliament.
Before the deal can proceed, the federal government needs Parliament to pass regulations removing a 15 per cent ownership cap on ASX Ltd.
The Foreign Investment Review Board, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission and the Reserve Bank of Australia must also approve the deal.
ASX Ltd, which is trying to reverse the tide of opinion against the takeover, welcomed the Prime Minister's intervention. "It is vital for the appropriate regulatory, government and shareholder approval process to be allowed to proceed in an informed manner," spokesman Matthew Gibbs said.
ASX Ltd has said that looming competition from offshore rivals was a key reason behind its decision to support a takeover bid by Singapore Exchange.
The government in March granted in-principle approval to Chi-X, a rival stock exchange operator backed by Japanese interests, to enter Australia.
The new competition rules, which need to be established before the government can give final approval to Chi-X, are expected to be released on Thursday after months of deliberations by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission.
"The exchange world is dynamic and ASX, as a commercial entity, must respond to competitive and technological developments," Mr Gibbs said.
Business leaders suggested controversy generated by the takeover bid had the potential to harm Australia's standing in Asia.
"I think the important thing when we look at it is that we take a longer-term perspective," said Qantas chairman Leigh Clifford.
"I think a bit of xenophobia's creeping into the debate, unfortunately."
Treasurer Wayne Swan, who will make a judgment on the takeover after the recommendation from the Foreign Investment Review Board, said yesterday he would not speculate on the outcome, describing the decision as market-sensitive.
"As the person responsible for approval of foreign investment in this country, there's a very clear and methodical process that we go through," he said.
